School of the Emperor Star.
Qian Yuan Hall.
"Your Majesty…"
Shangguan Wan 'er rushed in.
Wu Zhao frowned.
Shangguan Wan 'er was her most capable assistant.
She had always liked him for his calmness.
What was going on today?
He was actually in such a panic!
"Wan 'er, what happened?" she asked coldly.”
"Could it be that the Song Country is attacking?"
"It shouldn't be so fast!"
Shangguan Wan 'er smiled bitterly.
"It's Minister Yang who brought a cavalry back to the city!" she said slowly.”
" Cavalry?!"
Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes emitted a soul-stirring light.
"This traitor really has ulterior motives!”
"He actually has his own private army!"
She clenched her fair fists tightly, and a great anger surged in her heart.
As the Prime Minister, Yang Yi suddenly brought back an army.
Other than private soldiers, there was nothing else to explain!
This sycophantic official had indeed raised his own army long ago!
His wild ambitions were as clear as day!
Wu Zhao felt a huge sense of powerlessness.
The Great Zhou was already in danger. There were strong enemies outside and treacherous officials inside.
There was nothing he could do!
Even if she wanted to change the Great Zhou, it would be useless.
Yang Yi controlled the government with his own hands, and his power was overwhelming.
The only people she could control were the people in the palace.
The more Wu Zhao thought about it, the more sorrowful he became.
She couldn't help but laugh at herself.
"The Great Zhou is in ruins. No matter how powerful this treacherous official is, what use is it?”
"It's just a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water!”
"When the Song Country's army attacks, it will all be a dream!”
"Even if he wanted to usurp the throne, he would only end up with a small country on the verge of collapse!”
Wu Zhao's cold face showed a hint of bitterness.
Shangguan Wan 'er didn't know how to comfort him.
She opened her mouth and slowly said,"Your Majesty, perhaps Minister Yang brought his troops back to save the Great Zhou?"”
She didn't even have the confidence to say this.
Wu Zhao sneered.
"Him? Save the Great Zhou?"
"Zhen would rather believe that pigs can climb trees!”
............
One day later.
Great Song.
Bianjing.
A soldier rode a fast horse and rushed into the city.
The commoners who passed by hurriedly avoided them and cursed.
An hour later.
In the Imperial Palace.
" What?!" A tall, middle-aged man with a dark face was stunned.
His face was filled with shock.
"You mean my son has been detained by the people of Zhou Country?!”
"Yes, Grand Commandant!" The soldier kneeling on the ground quickly said.”
Gao Qiu revealed a furious expression.
"Bastard, you're just a small country with three taels of cities. How dare you detain my son!”
He quickly said to Zhao Ji who was sitting on the dragon throne,""Your Majesty, this Zhou Country is simply shameless. They actually dare to detain people from our Great Song!”
"This move is tantamount to falling out with the Great Song and disrespecting His Majesty's face!”
Zhao Ji rubbed his chin, a bitter smile appearing on his plump and fair face.
"So, they don't want to marry?!”
Gao Qiu was speechless.
The Emperor was still thinking about this?
"Your Majesty, the Zhou Country has treated the emissary of the Great Song like this. How can they have the slightest intention of marrying?" he said with a bitter smile.!”
Zhao Ji sighed." It's a pity that the Empress of Zhou Country is a peerless beauty!"”
Gao Qiu was speechless.
My son is already imprisoned there, and you're still thinking about your beauty?!
"Your Majesty, if they don't want a marriage alliance, can't we just fight them?" he hurriedly said.!”
"A mere Zhou Country can be destroyed with a flip of my hand!”
"If we destroy Zhou Country, won't their Empress be taken into His Majesty's room?!”
Zhao Ji glanced at Gao Qiu.
"War requires money. Although our Great Song is rich, we can't afford a few upheavals!”
Gao Qiu was helpless.
Of course, he knew what Zhao Ji meant.
They had just fought a battle with the Liao people and suffered heavy losses.
Although the Great Song was stronger than the Zhou Country, it was still at a disadvantage compared to the other large countries.
Its only advantage was its wealth!
"Your Majesty, this isn't exactly a riot!" Gao Qiu coughed lightly.”
"The Zhou Country detaining the envoy of my Song Country is damaging the face of my Song Country!”
"If we don't teach them a lesson, other countries will look down on our Great Song!”
"Although the Zhou Country is a small country, the name Luoyang is famous throughout the world!”
"The granary of Luoyang has stored a large amount of grain. Even if this grain is used to supply an army of a million, there won't be any problem!”
"And Luoyang's location is also excellent. It's located on an important river and has developed water transport!”
"The Zhou Country is weak. If the Great Song conquers Luoyang in one fell swoop and destroys the Zhou Country!”
"Not only can we raise the prestige of our Great Song, but we can also obtain several cities and the famous Luoyang!”
"In the end, His Majesty will also be able to obtain a stunning empress as a prisoner!”
"This is killing three birds with one stone!"
Zhao Ji's eyes flashed.
"Gao Qing, what you said makes sense!”
Gao Qiu was overjoyed. He hurriedly said,"Your Majesty has issued an edict to send troops to the Zhou Country!"”
"Exterminate this bunch of arrogant people and let them know what it means to not offend the might of the heavens!”
"Summon Tong Guan into the palace!" Zhao Ji muttered to himself for a moment.”
Gao Qiu calmed down.
The Emperor had let Tong Guan enter the palace, so he was definitely going to send troops to Zhou Country!
His eyes revealed a trace of coldness.
A small country dared to be so arrogant. When Luoyang was conquered, he would definitely make Yang Yi beg for death!
