Everyone was shocked and turned their heads quickly.

On the road in front of me, I saw a group of people walking slowly in the distance. Two rows of cavalry opened the way, and they were impressive. There was also a large sedan chair, which occupied almost half of the street.

That is the emperor's chariot!

Everyone hurriedly retreated to both sides of the avenue and knelt down to worship. However, Shang Ru frowned when he saw this situation - Yanmen City had reached a critical moment of survival, but as the emperor, he had no sense of crisis at all and only cared about his own safety.

So majestic, who among the soldiers is willing to sacrifice their lives anymore?

After a while, the imperial driver walked up to them.

Shang Ruyi lowered her head and first heard the sound of horse hoofs passing by, followed by a group of palace maids and chamberlains. When they passed by, a huge sedan chair slowly came into her sight.

Then, it stopped in front of her.

When the huge sedan chair fell, it made a dull sound. Shang Ruyi's heart sank subconsciously. Suddenly, the entire long street became silent. Everyone held their breath, even the wind.

I dare not blow it at this time.

A chamberlain stepped forward, opened the curtain, and helped the person in the sedan out.

Immediately, a pair of exquisite shoes caught Shang Ruyi's eyes.

Made of silk satin, sewn with gold thread, and embellished with bright pearls and warm jade, these shoes are so luxurious and bright that they are worthy of being worn by fairies in the sky. Shang Ruyi couldn't be more familiar with them.

But at this moment, the shoes once again stepped into the mud, even stained with some blood, and then walked towards her step by step.

Then, an arrogant and lazy voice sounded above her head——

"Get up."

Sure enough, it was Chu Yang’s voice!

And this was also said to her.

Chu Yang's voice was neither high nor low, and only the people standing in front of him could barely hear it. However, Shang Ruyi was secretly complaining in his heart - although the people around him, and even the soldiers and civilians on the street further away, could not hear it.

But no one is blind. There are so many people kneeling on such a long street, but the emperor only asked her to get up alone. What does this mean?!

Sure enough, some of the people kneeling next to Shang Ruyi cast different looks, especially Mu Xian and the brothers he brought with him, as well as some soldiers who had recognized Shang Ruyi, with disdain in their eyes.

look.

Those eyes made Shang Ruyi shine like a light on his back.

She bit her lower lip and still knelt on the ground motionless.

Immediately, among all the gazes that pierced her back, there was a gaze that was so sharp that it almost pierced her body. She heard Chu Yang say coldly: "Why, I haven't blamed you yet, but you have."

Do you want to take Joe with me?"

If the word "Naqiao" comes from the mouth of an emperor, it is the crime of deceiving the emperor!

Tu Sheer beside him was so frightened that his face turned pale.

Although Shang Ruyi was a little frightened, he still composed himself and whispered: "I heard that the battle at the North City Gate was fierce, so I brought my maid here to treat the wounded soldiers, but I didn't report it to the emperor in time. I hope the emperor will forgive my sin of neglect.

."

"..."

What she said was indeed high-sounding.

Chu Yang's eyes became more playful and he looked down at her: "That's it?"

A drop of cold sweat had condensed on Shang Ruyi's forehead, and it slowly slid down. She thought about it again and again, and said softly: "Your Majesty is merciful and pardons everyone. How can I dare to stand up if everyone can't afford it? This is not a matter of taking responsibility."

Joe.”

Chu Yang sneered: "One sentence from me, but you have ten sentences waiting for me."

"..."

Shang Ruyi was sweating more and more.

She really didn't expect that the emperor would suddenly come to the North City Gate. After all, this place could be attacked by Turks at any time and was the most dangerous place. But now that the emperor was here, as long as she ignored everyone, she could reduce everyone's feelings towards her.

Suspicion can also save a little reputation. But I didn't expect that the emperor's actions and his words actually made it more obvious that the relationship between the two was close.

If this continues, she really won't be able to be a human being anymore!

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and said simply: "My wife, I do have something to say, and I want to make it clear to the emperor."

"oh?"

Chu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.

He originally heard that Shang Ruyi left the government office on her own initiative without reporting anything, and he felt a little angry at being disobeyed, so he came to "arrest" her, but he did not expect that she actually wanted to "retaliate".

So, he smiled lukewarmly and said, "What do you want to tell me?"

Shang Ruyi took a deep breath, raised her head, met his lazy and arrogant eyes, and whispered: "My wife, I beg, please stop your conquest of Liaodong!"

"...!"

As soon as these words were spoken, a sudden gust of cold wind blew in from outside the damaged hole in the city wall. Suddenly, there was a sound, carrying a thick smell of blood and a heavy murderous aura, whizzing past the long street.

For a moment, everyone shuddered.

And Shang Ruyi felt an invisible evil aura coming down from the top of her head, almost suffocating her.

It’s Chu Yang!

It's the evil spirit in him!

At this time, even without raising her head, she could feel Chu Yang's vicious eyes, almost piercing her body.

The people around him, including the emperor's servants, the imperial guards who opened the way, Wang Shaoji who was following Chu Yang, and the soldiers and civilians kneeling by the roadside, were all stunned after hearing these words.

He looked at this thin woman with disbelief.

How dare she?

Shang Ruyi's heart was also trembling at this moment.

She obviously said those words after careful consideration, but the moment she said them, she already started to regret it.

Who doesn't know that the emperor's plan was to "conquer Liaodong"? Pei Shi and other veterans were convicted one after another for admonishing the emperor to stop the conquest. Now, she dared to admonish the emperor when the battle situation on the front line was critical.

!

This, isn’t it seeking death?

Chu Yang's voice came from above the head again, and there was a ruthlessness in the gritted teeth: "Shang, Ru, Yi!"

Shang Ruyi's body stiffened.

As soon as she raised her head, she saw Chu Yang's livid face and said in a deep voice: "Shang Ruyi is deceiving the public with his monstrous words and disrupting the morale of the army. Arrest him!"

"yes!"

The Imperial Guards behind him immediately took the order, stepped forward and arrested Shang Ruyi.

At this time, everyone around them panicked, especially Mu Xian and the others. They immediately knelt and kowtowed before me: "Your Majesty, please have mercy on me and let the young lady go!"

Chu Yang said coldly: "Whoever dares to plead for mercy will be guilty of the same crime as her!"

For a moment, the voice begging for mercy was cut off immediately.

Shang Ruyi was grabbed by several people and led away. When passing by Chu Yang, she gritted her teeth and still said: "Your Majesty, if we don't stop the conquest of Liaodong, the siege of Yanmen County will be difficult to break!"

Chu Yang didn't look at her and just said angrily: "Take her away!"

Just when Shang Ruyi was about to be dragged away, suddenly, behind them, a sharp scream sounded from the large damaged hole in the city gate.
