After returning from riding a horse and shooting archery, the servant had prepared breakfast for her.

A cage of freshly baked hot steamed cakes was loved to eat pasta at that time, and the pasta was popular, so pasta was very common. Those who used noodles as food utensils were all called cakes.

Food made of various pasta is basically called cakes, those without filling are collectively called steamed cakes, and those with fillings are called cage cakes. Hongzhi gets up early every morning to ride a horse and practice arrows, and also practices a horse spear, sword and mace. When he comes back, he is hungry.

When I saw the white and fragrant cage cake, my index finger had already moved.

I didn't care that the cake that had just been released was still hot, so I grabbed one and bit it. After biting it, I ate it with the filling made of green onions and mutton, which was very delicious.

“This cage is so delicious.”

Red Line said with a smile.

"You guys eat together, too."

The woman who served her shook her head, "This is for the princess."

Hongzhi likes to eat cage cakes the most in the morning. After practicing in the morning, the cage cakes can satisfy your hunger and be delicious, especially the filling with oil soup inside is the most delicious. She usually steams more, and in addition to eating it herself, she will also give it to the female guards around her and the personal servants who take care of her.

But today the servant lady kept refusing.

"What's wrong?"

The servant had to say truthfully, "The kitchen only prepares cage cakes for the princess."

"Why is this?" asked Hongxian.

So the servant had to tell the princess of Xia that food was tight and the supply was now restricted. The emperor took the lead in saving food, so the supply of fine grain pasta in the princess's mansion has also been reduced. In order to ensure the princess' pasta supply, the kitchen could not make any extra money.

Has it reached this point? Hongzi couldn't help but stop. She held half of the cage cake in her hand and was stunned. She suddenly had no appetite. She put down the cage cake, put on a pleated dress she had returned from morning exercises and washed up after washing. She hung a horizontal knife on her waist, and her long hair on her head simply tied a bun, "I'll go to the palace to see the emperor." She said to the servant.

The servant reminds the princess.

"Your Majesty is in a bad mood now. I heard that no one will see you, and even Empress Cao can't see Your Majesty."

"Is there any bad news?"

The servant told the princess, "Your Highness, you stay in the women's camp every day to train, don't know. Now there is a rumor that the prince of Handong was captured by climbing mountain in Yunzhongbai, and all the soldiers of the Xia army were captured."

"How is this possible?" Dou Hongxian didn't believe it. Liu Heita's bravery was even above his uncle Wang Fubao. Although he lacked some strategy, he was in Daibei after all, and there were 200,000 Turks there.

"I heard that the Turkic army was defeated and Jie Li Khan was killed in battle." Hong Shi shook his head, and even the servants in her mansion said this. It seems that there must be bad news.

She hurried out of the mansion and rode her horse to the Jincheng Palace.

The emperor's guard commander stopped her, "Your Majesty does not want to see anyone."

"Get out of the way." Dou Hongxian glared at the guard commander who was like a wood. She knew that this person was his father's old brother. He had followed his father for many years and even saved his life several times. Once when he was fighting with the thief army, his father was injured when he was in trouble. He escaped with his father on his back.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty is in a bad mood now."

Hongxian asked, "I heard that the prince of Handong was captured?"

The guard commander was silent for a while, and finally nodded, "Jie Li's entire army was wiped out, and the prince of Handong and his Xia army soldiers were all captured. Now Luo Cheng has come to the east, and His Majesty is in a bad mood."

Hong Shi did not expect what the maid said was true, "The more I do this, the more I need to see Your Majesty."

"I'll report it." The guard commander thought for a while.

The Red Line waited at the gate of the hall for a while, and the guards led it out, "Your Majesty said that you want to be alone and let Your Highness go back first."

After hearing this, Hongxin rushed inside, but the guards couldn't stop him.

Several guards drew their swords in a hurry, and the commander waved to stop them, "Let your princess go, now only your prince can comfort His Majesty."

"But before Empress Cao broke in, he was scolded by His Majesty."

The guard commander whispered, "The princess is different."

The red line traveled through the numerous palace gates, through the previous dynasty, and came to the Houting Court.

Although this place is the back hall of the palace, it is not very luxurious. She knew that her father actually didn't like luxury, and he was even more unwilling to be proud. Now there are many things in the palace that were arranged by Empress Cao, otherwise the palace would be like the backyard of a landlord's house.

In the past, it was always very lively, but today, it was very quiet and quiet a bit too much.

There is a depressing atmosphere that makes people feel uncomfortable.

The people in the eunuchs did not dare to stop the princess who broke into the palace, even though she was wearing a horizontal knife on her waist.

"Where is Your Majesty?"

“In Xihua Palace.”

She came to Xihua Palace and saw the emperor wiping a big knife. She recognized it as a big knife that had been following her father for many years.

"Father!"

Dou Jiande turned his head, "Why are you here? Didn't you ask you to go back?"

"I heard that King Dong of Han was captured, and Jie Li was also defeated."

Dou Jiande nodded and continued to wipe the knife.

"Well, Song Jingang lost Zhao County, Zhen Zhaier lost Xiangguo County, Gao Kaidao lost Shanggu County, Gao Tansheng lost Zhuo County, Chai Shao even lost 80,000 Tang troops in one battle, making Luo Siye run thousands of miles as if he was in a no-man's land, and he rushed all the way to Lingzhou."

"Jie Li's army of 200,000 was gone, but the entire army was gone before he even arrived in Yanmen Pass."

"Why!"

Dou Jiande's long sigh was full of loneliness.

"Isn't there Liu Wuzhou? Yanmen City has also been lost?"

Dou Jiande shook his head, "Don't mention it, Liu Wuzhou is just a paper tiger. Before Luo Cheng sent troops, he was very crazy, but who knew that once Luo Cheng headed north, he was useless. He allowed Luo Cheng to bypass him and siege Jie Li. Now that the Turkic army is destroyed, Yanmen City will be destroyed without attacking."

"It's self-defeating?"

"When Liu Wuzhou's generals and officers in Yanmen City saw that the situation was wrong, they mutiny and killed Liu Wuzhou and surrendered. Luo Cheng was pacified with one army and one soldier. The 50,000-generation army did not cause any loss to Luo Cheng, and they did not even delay any further."

Speaking of Liu Wuzhou, Dou Jiande kept shaking his head.

From beginning to end, Liu Wuzhou owned important places like the three counties of Mayi, but did not play any role at all.

If you encounter such a pig teammate, you will be in trouble.

"Red line, Luo Cheng has already attacked the five armies, and we can't defend it." Dou Jiande said pessimisticly.

"Father, since God is so willing, why should I force myself? It's better to just surrender."

"Subdue?" Dou Jiande looked at his daughter, but he didn't expect that he could be so free and easy.

"Yes, father, as today, Luo Cheng is in power, and unification of the world is unstoppable. Now even Jie Li is defeated, no one in the world can stop Luo Cheng from unification. Even if all the remaining anti-kings in the world are added together, they are no match for him. Why should my father stop the car with his arms?"

Dou Jiande hesitated, "But this territory in Hebei was captured by all the brothers and I."

"Father, don't delay it for a little false reputation."

"Red Line, do you really think your father should surrender to Luo Cheng?" Dou Jiande asked, holding his daughter's hand.

Dou Hongxian nodded, "Before the Qin army came to attack, and his daughter supported his father's confrontation. After all, the world was not clear at that time, and his father did not have a chance. But now, there is no chance for half a percentage."

Dou Jiande sighed.

Before, Luo Cheng came to recruit surrender and wanted to propose marriage, but he refused. Unexpectedly, he could not escape the failed ending in the end.
