Chapter 464

Seeing the expressions of relief from the ministers.

The anger in Prince He's heart, what kind of pillars of the empire, what kind of ministers, what kind of dedication, are all bullshit, and none of them are reliable.

Infighting expert.

Fight outside the layman.

truth.

I really want to order to kill all of them, leaving no one behind.

But know it's impossible.

subsequently.

The ministers began to discuss the matter of moving to the north. After all, they did not abandon the imperial capital, and the place still had to be defended. Therefore, some people would definitely not be able to leave.

Forbidden army.

Guards.

Ministry of War.

You have to leave a lot of them.

Near noon, the entire northward relocation plan was almost discussed.

In the past, to make such a large-scale plan, the ministries said it would take at least ten days, or even longer. Anyway, there is no rush, just do a little bit a day, and just dawdle.

And now, all of them are exerting their greatest intelligence.

The last item to discuss is staying in command.

"I come!"

Prince He's voice sounded.

immediately.

The ministers were surprised.

"No!"

"Secondly, you can't risk yourself."

"yes!"

"..."

All the ministers persuaded them one after another, but none of them volunteered. Seeing this, Prince He also felt helpless. These are really the backbone of the empire!

Is there one that can stand straight?

The empire is really going to die, and these people must bear the primary responsibility.

However, I am not in the mood to scold.

In fact, when Prince He proposed to move north, he planned to stay on his own. After all, it was the imperial capital, and the royal family had to leave a heavyweight.

Otherwise, count on those ministers and generals?

What a mess!

People with foreign surnames don't have the determination to stick to the end.

In addition, I cannot absolve myself of the blame for the recent failure of the empire. Although it is not entirely my responsibility, it happened during his time in power after all.

Inside the royal family, there were also criticisms of him.

Therefore, he intends to stay and fight against the rebels.

If you really want to do nothing...it's not too late to run away!

Just kidding, buried with you? Prince He thinks he is not yet so enlightened.

After pressing down his hands, the court fell silent.

"alright!"

"I have made up my mind, no need to say more."

"Scattered court! Everyone prepare to go."

Now that Prince He said so, the ministers didn't persuade him anymore, lest Prince He suddenly say: "Since you are so loyal, you should stay."

If so, it would be too unfair.

"yes!"

After finishing speaking, the civil servants and military generals left the hall. Compared with when they came, they walked with wind at this moment.

. . .

hall.

on stage.

After holding back for a long time, the little emperor stood up and stretched his muscles.

With a smile on his face, he clapped his hands and said:

"Queen, are we leaving the imperial city? Great."

"..."

The queen mother hurriedly covered the little emperor's mouth, because Prince He who was not far away had already looked gloomy. At this moment, Prince He wanted to go up and slap him.

Although the childish words are not taboo, the little emperor has reached the age of accepting concubines.

Still young?

Then she glared at the Queen Mother again.

If the queen mother had not been in power for many years, she was afraid that the power in her hand would be cut. All along, she had hardly cultivated the little emperor's awareness of being a king.

Let him play with some of his peers all day long, just for fun.

If the country is really going to be subjugated, he will be the first to kill this wrong country.

at this time.

The Empress Dowager also lost her usual demeanor and dared not say much.

Immediately took the little emperor back to the harem, packed his things, and the whole palace became busy. According to the plan, most of the maids and eunuchs had to be together.

The palace was not set on fire.

After all, this is not a retreat.

If it is really going to be burned, it is estimated that the courage of the remaining army will be burned away.

"quick!"

"Don't dawdle, be quick."

"This, and that, all loaded into the car, this is the Queen Mother's favorite..."

"..."

At first, I wanted to load everything, but soon found that there were too many things and the carriages were not enough. Even if the heavy-duty carriages were stacked so high, they could not be loaded.

Some concubines even took away screens and tables.

In the end, we can only give up the unimportant ones.

Vases and antiques are all removed, only gold and silver are left.

. . .

Outside the palace.

The Minister of War returned to his residence.

"Clean up immediately and leave with the whole family."

"ah?"

His wife was startled and wanted to run away?

"The court has decided to move the capital!"

In the eyes of the ministers, this is no different from moving the capital. Compared with the palace, the ministers' homes are not so flustered, but very calm.

Because many people and valuables have been transferred before.

The home has also been prepared long ago, and the valuables have been packed.

"Father, will we come back?"

"..."

silence.

return?

Knowing the battle situation on the front line, they are very pessimistic. The rebels are fighting against the empire. Although there are no soldiers to encircle the imperial capital, they are still gaining victories.

After digesting the two southern states, they must go north.

At that time, what if the imperial capital is defended?

The geographical location is too bad. Once the two states fall, the imperial capital will be the front line.

No matter what, it is impossible to move back.

"How long can the empire..."

"I don't know."

The delay of frontline battle reports made it difficult for the Empire's Ministry of War to judge the current situation. All the news obtained were at least one day ago.

. . .

According to the plan, the move to the north will start tomorrow. However, since many people have already prepared, seeing that the empire decided to move the capital, they immediately took their families and left.

On the main road of the imperial city.

Tread!

Tread!

…

The convoys, like a long queue, almost filled the road. Before that, a large number of wealthy families in the inner city did not leave, fearing that the empire would say that they were disloyal.

It is very dangerous to be labeled at this time.

But now, the north moved to make a decision, and the political risk was gone. Compared with the royal family, they were more flexible and naturally responded immediately, blocking the way directly.

The hearts of the people were chilled.

"The rebels are calling?"

"No, the empire decided to move north."

"Moving the capital?"

"Hush! You can't say that, it's moving to the north, not the capital."

"..."

It's still not the same, it's nothing more than a matter of face.

"Shall we go?" a commoner coolie asked his companion.

"Can you go?"

"..."

The very real question is, big families can leave, but ordinary people with small families, if they leave the imperial capital, where can they go? Can it survive anywhere else?

uncertain!

Therefore, we can only watch the big families evacuate.

Until the evening, there were endless convoys leaving the city.

Tube?

There are too many dignitaries, who dares to control them? Among them, there are many relatives of the royal family, so they can only let them go.

. . .

the next day.

early morning.

A large number of forbidden troops entered the city and blocked the road from the palace to the north gate. The northward movement of the palace began, and the blockade was not lifted until noon.

The palace was unprecedentedly deserted.

It's not that there is no one, some maids and eunuchs stayed behind to clean and maintain.

main hall.

Tread!

Prince He walked up the steps and sat on the little emperor's imperial chair, feeling filled with emotions in his heart. It is impossible to say that he is not interested in this position.

But I didn't expect to sit in this way.

The empire is at stake, and the frontlines are retreating.

Just this morning.

A few more battle reports came, and the three cities fell, and several routes of King Qin's army were directly knocked out by the rebels.

It feels like the decisive battle is not far away, and the location is the imperial capital. As for Beilin? If the imperial capital falls, Beilin can only be regarded as the end, not a decisive battle.
