Trapped in the City of Sorrow

If his previous guess was correct, and Yu Wenye’s last engagement was with Princess Crescent Moon, the eldest daughter of the empress in front of her, then now, in the eyes of the empress, is she destroying her daughter?

Happy sinner?

What's more, the emperor carried him back to the government office.

But she clearly didn't have any anger at all.

If there is really no anger, why mention Yu Wenye at this time?

Shang Ruyi's heart was in a mess. He hesitated for a long time before speaking cautiously, "Marriage matters sometimes may not go as expected..."

This time, Queen Jiang covered her mouth and chuckled.

She said: "Sure enough, chatting with you is a very interesting thing."

Shang Ruyi lowered his head and said softly: "It is my honor to be able to show mercy to the Queen at this time."

Empress Jiang said: "Wait until this happens - if it really works, then I should get closer and closer to Mrs. Yuwen."

Mentioning this, Shang Ruyi immediately became nervous again.

She asked cautiously: "I dare you to ask the queen how the war is going outside? Have reinforcements arrived?"

When she mentioned this, Queen Jiang's eyes suddenly darkened.

She seemed unwilling to mention this, but she was still willing to accept Shang Ruyi's words. She sighed and said, "The reinforcements haven't arrived yet."

"Then we are now——"

"Sitting in the city of sorrow."

Sitting trapped in the city of sorrow, these four words only mean that Shang Ruyi's heart feels like falling into an ice cave.

She thought for a moment and then asked: "Then, don't the generals around His Majesty have any solution?"

Empress Jiang raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at her with a bit of scrutiny and amusement, and said: "I only saw the bravery of Young Madam Yuwen in shooting the Turk soldiers outside the city, but I didn't know that Young Madam

There is also a passion for caring about the war before the battle."

Shang Ruyi reluctantly smiled and said: "Life and death are at stake. Even a minister wants to share the worries for the emperor and the queen."

Queen Jiang smiled and then said: "I'm afraid you shouldn't ask me about this."

"..."

"I hid just because I didn't want to hear what they said about fighting and killing. I came to your room to see you."

"……oh."

"but,"

Empress Jiang said: "Before I left, I seemed to hear General Wang giving advice to the Emperor."

Shang Ruyi hurriedly looked up at her—Wang Shaoji?

This person usually only knows how to take bribes and bend the law, and has done all kinds of evil things. At this time, what good plan can he come up with?

Empress Jiang said: "I listen to what he wants. There is not much food in Yanmen City, but the emperor has brought many people. In just a few days, all the food will be used up.

At that time, I was really trapped here."

"..."

"So, he wants to take advantage of the fact that there is still food and grass in the city, as well as BMWs and horses, so he can find an opportunity to open the city gate, and let the imperial guards select elites to protect the emperor and break through the siege. As long as he can break through the Turkic soldiers' attack on Yanmen City,

Surrounded heavily, just——”

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi almost jumped up from the bed. Fortunately, the injury on her back prevented her from moving, but she still hurriedly said: "This, this is absolutely impossible!"

Empress Jiang didn't expect her reaction to be so big. She looked at her in astonishment: "What's wrong?"

Shang Ruyi probably realized that he was too excited, so he quickly calmed down and said in a calm tone: "In my humble opinion, General Wang's plan will never work."

"oh?"

Queen Jiang asked: "Why?"

Shang Ruyi thought about his words again, and then said cautiously: "Although we stay in Yanmen Chengzhong and are trapped in Chou City, and although there is not much food in the city and cannot sustain our consumption for a few days, our Daye Dynasty's

What sergeants are best at is defending the city."

Queen Jiang said: "Really?"

Shang Ruyi said with some embarrassment: "Actually, it is not just our Daye Dynasty. Since ancient times, the Central Plains Dynasty has mostly appeared in a defensive posture in its confrontation with the northern barbarians. We have the Great Wall, we have cities, and even, as long as there is a wall

Wall, we can all stop the invasion of the prairie cavalry."

Queen Jiang thought for a moment and said, "That seems to be the truth."

Shang Ruyi hurriedly said: "If we follow General Wang's plan, we will give up our strengths."

"However, General Wang also said that staying here would mean sitting in the city of sorrow, so it is better to give it a try."

"A fight must have a chance of winning; General Wang proposed to have the imperial guards escort the emperor to break out of the encirclement. In this case, if there is no more than 70% chance of winning, the emperor's body should not be allowed to take risks.

"

"..."

"What's more, as my wife just said, our strength is to defend the city, but isn't the strength of the Turkic soldiers to attack with cavalry?"

"..."

"We sacrifice our strengths for shortcomings, and the results are self-evident."

Queen Jiang looked at her, with a bit of surprise in her eyes, and said: "What Mrs. Yuwen said is consistent with the advice given to His Majesty by the guard of Yanmen City."

"Really? Then, will your Majesty accept the advice?"

"Young Madam,"

Empress Jiang smiled lightly and said: "Whether Your Majesty accepts the advice or not is your Majesty's business. As a minister, I really shouldn't pry into His Majesty's thoughts."

Shang Ruyi was startled, and then realized that he had said too much in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "I have overstepped my bounds. I hope your Majesty will forgive me."

Empress Jiang said: "Actually, what I heard from you all has its own reasons - but your Majesty never really likes to listen to what others say, and even if he did, he wouldn't listen."

"..."

"So, the key is, who can make His Majesty listen to what he says."

Shang Ruyi's face condensed slightly.

The queen's words have a certain meaning.

She carefully raised her head and looked at him again, but saw that Queen Jiang only smiled lightly, stood up, and said softly: "You should take good care of yourself. I will leave first."

Shang Ruyi said hurriedly: "Congratulations to your Majesty."

Seeing that she had reached the door, before Shang Ruyi had time to breathe a sigh of relief, Queen Jiang suddenly stopped again, turned back and looked at her with a smile and said: "Mrs. Yuwen, since you have already asked if the reinforcements are coming,

And why don't you ask if the team behind you is here?"

"..."

Shang Ruyi took a deep breath.

Then he looked at those bright smiling eyes. Although they were looking at him gently, there seemed to be a bit of scrutiny in the gentleness.

Shang Ruyi subconsciously held his breath.

After thinking over and over again, she thought all the words clearly, then she put on a smile and said softly: "If that army can come, it will naturally be a help, but he - they still have to protect Her Royal Highness the Princess. The war is dangerous,

The sword has no eyes, but Her Royal Highness is a golden branch and jade leaf, which cannot be damaged."

"..."

"So it's best not to come."
