Chapter 248 Things change and people change
Everyone in the Great Xia Imperial City was in danger. It was because the army of Prince Yan's Palace had already surrounded the last four states that defended the capital, and would soon reach the Imperial City.
Except for the capital and the northern land to the northeast, which belonged to Chu Tianling, all the land of Daxia was in the hands of the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and Chu Tianling, the emperor, was in name only.
In the palace, Chu Tianling waved everyone away and slumped weakly in a chair, his eyes having lost their former luster.
There were footsteps coming one after another, and Chu Tianling didn't even raise his head, "Didn't I say that everyone should go down..."
"Come and be safe!"
The man was wearing a black brocade robe and standing with one hand behind his back.
"You came……"
Chu Tianling's face was calm. He was not angry, nor did he wonder why the person in front of him could easily appear in the palace.
"I'm here to give you a ride!" Chu Tianze nodded casually.
"Oh, I lost this round!"
"Winning and losing are common in the royal family, but you shouldn't covet my princess..."
"You're just a little luckier..."
"Just consider it my luck. I'll give you a chance to choose a way to die."
"There are still hundreds of thousands of troops in the north. Why would I let you slaughter me?"
"If you thought they were reliable, you would have abandoned the Imperial City and fled to the north long before I came..."
Chu Tianling was silent, "Let my child go, and..."
Before he could finish his words, Chu Tianze interrupted, "The Wei family must die!"
He has the blood of the Qin family in his body. The Wei family once harmed the entire Qin family. If he let them go, he would be sorry for his biological mother who risked her life to give birth to him.
"The Queen Mother was not involved in what happened back then!"
"Her last name is Wei. My patience is running out. I can make your children ordinary people."
"…What do you want me to do?"
Chu Tianze took out a piece of silk and threw it over. "According to the decree from above, I can let you die of illness tomorrow morning."
After saying that, he turned and left, and no one came out to stop him the whole time.
Looking at the content above, Chu Tianling's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm. After just one glance, he turned around and entered the harem.
The people in the harem had long lost the desire to compete for favor. Although they were in the deep palace, they also knew that the owner of the imperial city would soon be changed, and they would end up being buried alive with the emperor.
Chu Tianling stepped into the Queen's Palace. The once willful and unruly Zhang Miaoke had long lost her flamboyant demeanor. She just looked at the children playing in the palace, lost in thought.
"Mother, why don't you play with Xiao'er..." The nearly two-year-old child seemed to have seen through her thoughts and came forward to shake her.
Zhang Miaoke smiled faintly, "Xiaoyang, be good. When your mother is not around, just play by yourself, okay..."
The man in brocade clothes could not quite understand the meaning of this sentence.
"Xiao Yang, come to Father!"
"Father!"
The villain immediately ran to Chu Tianling's side, and Zhang Miaoke said softly, "This seems to be the first time we are so calm..."
Chu Tianling lowered his eyes, "Xiao Yang will be fine!"
Zhang Miaoke nodded, "Then I feel relieved. I was so arrogant before, always thinking about competing with that person to see who was better. Now it seems stupid."
She hated Bai Chuxiao. She had hated her since the first time they met and she still hated her now. But the woman who refused to admit defeat could go to the battlefield and capture her father alive, but she could only be trapped in this world, fighting for unnecessary favors, and in the end her life had the final say over others.
Chu Tianling seemed to have recalled the past, his eyes darkened, "I'm leaving first."
Zhang Miaoke nodded indifferently, she knew where he was going. She used to make a scene and get jealous, but now everything was gone, and it was meaningless to fight over it.
After leaving the Queen's Palace, Chu Tianling stepped into Fangfei Palace. This is the palace of Pang Qingran, the daughter of Pang Kun. Apart from Zhang Miaoke, only Concubine Pang has a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.
"Qingran!"
Chu Tianling looked at the woman in front of the bronze mirror, slightly distracted.
In such a huge harem, if you ask who he likes the most, he will say without hesitation that it is Pang Qingran. When he first met this daughter of the general, she had bright eyes, white teeth and a unique heroic spirit. In his opinion, her temperament was particularly similar to Bai Chuxiao.
He couldn't help but pamper her a little more, but after getting to know her for a long time, he realized that although she looked like her, she was not the one.
"Your Majesty!" Pang Qingran stood up and bowed.
Chu Tianling helped her up, "Didn't you say that we don't need these empty formalities in private?"
Pang Qingran forced a smile, "But you are His Majesty after all. Your Majesty is here to see the child."
The war in the front was so intense that Chu Tianling had not set foot in the harem for nearly two months. She had not even seen her children. Now that she suddenly came, she knew that everything was a foregone conclusion.
"Do you regret entering the palace?"
Looking at the beautiful and heroic face, Chu Tianling asked softly.
Pang Qingran smiled and said, "I regret entering the palace but I don't regret meeting Tian Ling. But I know that the person in Tian Ling's heart is not me."
Chu Tianling put his hand on her face and paused, "I said I like you very much..."
Pang Qingran smiled and said, "Your Majesty likes many people, and I may be one of them, but Tian Ling only likes one person."
Chu Tianling was silent, "Where are Xiaozhou and Xiaoyu? I want to take a look..."
"Sleeping in the back hall..."
Pang Qingran followed Chu Tianling into the back hall. After sending the servants away, Chu Tianling walked up to the two babies who looked a bit alike and whispered, "You must grow up well!"
A tear fell from the corner of Pang Qingran's eye, "It was my father who failed to help Your Majesty, and it was the Pang family who held us back!"
Although they were defeated by Xiyue, there were still hundreds of thousands of remnants of his father's army. If they hadn't been attacked by cavalry that came out of nowhere, and with the support of the entire north, Chu Tianling would still have a chance of survival...
Chu Tianling wiped away her tears with his fingers. "It has nothing to do with you. The extra troops in Prince Yan's Mansion are my third brother's personal soldiers. I forced my third brother to go to the opposite side and also to rebel against me. I deserve all of this."
Pang Qingran's face was determined, "No matter what the outcome is, Qingran will accompany Your Majesty."
Chu Tianling's eyes were slightly red, and he held her in his arms, "I'm sorry."
Outside the city of Lin'an in Qingzhou is a military camp of the Prince of Yan's Palace.
At night, Bai Chuxiao stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the crescent moon in the sky, and heard light footsteps behind him.
"Fate is strange. The person I saved casually outside Lin'an City turned out to be my husband! I remember when I first arrived in Lin'an, it was April, just like now."
Bai Chuxiao chuckled, without looking back but seemed to know who was behind her.
"Xiao Xiao looked pale and weak, but once she attacked, her eyes were sharp and she killed one person with one step. I was wondering at that time, how could there be such a woman in the world."
Chu Tianze, who was still cold after rushing back, walked up to her slowly and put his arm around her shoulders.
"Is that the only time Master Wuyun messed up in his life?"
"I didn't meet anyone else during my failed marriage, but I happened to meet Xiaoxiao. This is fate. Xiaoxiao, our marriage is destined by heaven and cannot be changed."
"Master Wuyun, do you still believe in fate?"
"Young Master Zui'an, don't you believe it?"
"letter!"
