Tingfu opened his eyes wide: "Why?"

Nan Yan said: "Didn't you hear what those two children said just now?"

Tingfu immediately said, "This servant heard it. However, Master Xu ordered the people of Shangyijian to prepare the dragon robe and the imperial concubine's dress ten days later, which was for them to ascend the throne. What does General Xu have to do with crossing the river?"

Nan Yan said: "Xu Shizong is a very cautious person. He knew very well that Zhu Chengjin should not ascend the throne at this time, but he had no way to stop it. Therefore, he would definitely delay as much as possible until he dealt with some major matters that should be dealt with."

Tingfu thought for a while and said, "Empress, General Xu crossed the river?"

"Um,"

Nan Yan nodded and said, "Now, the entire Jinling City, no, it should be said that people from the entire Jiangnan region are actually waiting for this battle. After all, Xu Shifeng is always following the emperor. The troops he led are the king's army, so everyone is naturally full of expectations for him. If he can cross the river and win, then everything will have the possibility of turning around."

Tingfu nodded.

But he suddenly thought of something and said, "But, didn't their people just say that there are still three troops from Jiangnan who are coming to help Jinling?"

“…”

"Isn't this important?"

Nanyandao: "Although important, it's not that important."

Tingfu was puzzled: "Why? These are three whole teams, coming from all over the place, and it will have some impact on the situation in Jinling City."

Nan Yan said: "A region has the most important heart, just like a country must have a capital. Jinling is the Kyoto in the south. Zhu Chengjin—oh no, it should be said to be Xu Shizong. He knew very well that Jinling City was in the hearts of the people in the south, so he defeated this place forever. Occupying Jinling City is equivalent to occupying the entire Jiangnan. Although they may not have entered other regions, this impact is actually very great."

“…”

"And the people in other regions are very unlikely to win without the command of the court."

“…”

"What's more, when the emperor moved the capital, he brought a large number of people to the north, and there were very few officers and soldiers left behind in Jinling."

“…”

"If I guessed it wrong, it would be fine if these three teams came quickly. If they came slowly, I would be waiting for news that General Xu crossed the river."

Tingfu said: "They want to see if General Xu can cross the river?"

"Yes, if Xu Shifeng could cross the river, they would meet with the king's army and attack Jinling City together."

“…”

"But, if Xu Shifeng fails to cross the river..."

Tingfu suddenly understood: "Then these people may not be able to fight with them anymore, right?"

Nan Yan was silent and nodded gently.

She turned her head and looked out the window and said in a deep voice: "So, the most important thing now is Xu Shifeng. Whether he can cross the river is related to the next battle situation."

“…”

"Maybe, it is more related to the life and death of many people and their destiny."

Tingfu heard what she said, but didn't say anything for a while.

He held his hands hard, and his fingers were tangled together, as if he was deeply entangled in his heart. After a long time, he said softly: "Empress, what if—— what should we do?"
