Chapter 518

The rebels have surrounded the capital!

At the moment of hearing this news, Xiao Lin thought Liang Taibai was joking with himself, but the other party's bloodshot pupils and haggard face made him understand that today is not April Fool's day, and now is not the time for joking.

Xiao Lin dressed with the fastest speed, and then followed Liang Taibai into the palace.

"In the daytime, it's not that the rebels are still a month away from us, and there are troops sent by the royal family to intercept them. How can they be here now?"

"We're trying to investigate, but this is not the time to think about it." Liang Taibai sighed.

"How many troops does Wang Du have?" Xiao Lin guessed something from Liang Taibai's face.

"There are three thousand left."

"And the rebels?"

"It's not clear yet, but according to the rough estimation of the guards at the head of the city, the number is at least 20000 or more."

"Damn it!" Xiao Lin can't help but burst a rude remark. Even if defending the city is more advantageous than attacking the city, the gap in the number of people is too big.

Liang Taibai strode on his way, and continued to say the worse news: "the 3000 people guarding the city are mostly old, weak, sick and disabled, because the main force was sent by the king to intercept the rebels not long ago. I wonder what the idiots have done along the way. They have just left for a few days." Even Liang Taibai, who was always gentle and gentle, could not help but scold and despise the military combat effectiveness of the principality.

Xiao Lin was slightly stunned and silent.

A quarter of an hour later, the two men had arrived at the palace directly. Although Wang Du had imposed a curfew for a long time, under the privilege of the special pass of the Embassy of Shuguang University, the road was unimpeded, let alone obstructed, and no one even dared to investigate.

In the magnificent palace, Xiao Lin saw the king of the principality. Although almost all the king's children were included in the previous escort list, only the king himself was excluded.

According to the military's plan, as a sincerity to negotiate with the rebels, the hapless king just signed up. Moreover, Xiao Lin heard from Liang Taibai that many senior officials of Shuguang college were not satisfied with the king. Not only was the civil strife of rose caused a lot of extra trouble to Shuguang college, but also the relationship between rose and dawn was not very good Even when the dawn of the previous two years proposed to build more resurrection towers in the territory of Rosa, the king refused to do so with prevarication.

Obviously, even without this incident, Shuguang college could not tolerate this guy sitting on the throne of the king. This is the first time that Xiao Lin met the king who dared to fight against Shuguang college after he came to the capital. Before escorting the king, they went around the king directly.

The king's temples were gray and his beard was sparse. He looked very old. But in fact, Xiao Lin knew from intelligence that the king was only in his forties. On formal occasions, he wore a crown, but it was not very luxurious. There were only eight red diamonds in the shape of a rose.

In the palace is a huge round table. The ministers sit near the round table, while the king sits on the front step overlooking the people. Of course, as the ambassadors of dawn college, Xiao Lin and Liang Taibai do not need to sit on the overlooking seat, but set two stools beside the throne, which is regarded as equality with the king.

Since the civil strife intensified, the ministers of Wangdu have been running and hiding a lot. Up to now, there are only seven or eight people who still appear in the palace. They are all waiting. However, they are somewhat surprised by Xiao Lin's arrival. However, for them, what they need is the representatives of Shuguang college, and it doesn't matter who.

After Xiao Lin and Liang Taibai sat down, the temporary meeting began. First of all, a fully armed general like man stood up to report the current situation.

"Not long after nightfall, there was movement at the automatic sentry tower of the east gate. Of course, several soldiers in charge of guarding the city thought there was something wrong, so they went out to check it out, and then there was a brief conflict At that time, I happened to be nearby, and then I found something was wrong. I turned on the searchlight funded by dawn college, and found that a large army was approaching, and had basically formed a encirclement... "

Liang Taibai immediately asked questions in detail, asking for a lot of information, such as the number of the enemy and the forces they belonged to, including formation and equipment, etc. However, because he was too hasty, the general did not have much information. When he was shocked, he immediately ran back to report the matter and wait for the king's decision.

"It must be the rebels. Don't think about it!" Some people were dissatisfied with Liang Taibai's query, but it was not easy to show this emotion too clearly. They turned to the king anxiously and said, "Your Highness, please organize troops to attack immediately while the enemy is not fully surrounded and covered by night!"

"Yes! Please leave immediately! Only your highness can't be caught, otherwise we will have no future for rose

"Your Highness, leave at once! Today, Wang almost has no defense force. As long as we break through the encirclement and join the army dispatched two days ago, we will still have a chance! "

Several ministers were sincere in persuading the king to go immediately. They would also cast angry eyes at Liang Taibai during their speeches. Of course, they also knew that Shuguang college deliberately removed the king from the escort list to let the king die.The king waved his hand slightly to show the ministers to be quiet. Then he turned his head to Liang Taibai and asked slowly, "do you have any suggestions and opinions on this?"

The king's old face was calm. He did not feel any panic because of the siege. He did not know whether he pretended to be calm or whether he knew that he had become an abandoned son of Shuguang college, so he abandoned himself.

Xiao Lin speculated to himself, but for whatever reason, he had no good impression on the king who met for the first time. It had nothing to do with dawning college, the principality, and the poor people in the kingdom. It was only because the man sitting on the throne was IbeA's biological grandfather!

Although the words of IbeA, a lovely little Lori, are all true and false, it is hard to distinguish them. However, in terms of her life experience, IbeA basically has no lies. This has been confirmed by Xiaolin from various aspects of secret investigation.

IbeA is indeed a hybrid of human and vampire race. Her biological mother is the eldest princess of rose duchy, which is the king's daughter in front of her, so IbeA is naturally his granddaughter.

However, IbeA's childhood was very tragic. The blood of the St. cro family in her body made her doomed to coexist with danger. Her father was also hunted and killed. The rose royal family refused to recognize her existence from the beginning to the end, and even forced the eldest princess out of the palace. After the eldest princess gave birth to IbeA, she lost too much blood and died. After she died, IbeA and his uncle, that is to say An old man lives with him.
