"Is the Empress here? I, Guo Xing, seek an audience!"
Outside the imperial tent, a loud voice rang out.
Guo Xing?
Su Yan imdiately realized he was the commander who had captured Xiliang Country, and he was also involved in this Cangyue Country campaign.
Rising and tidying her clothes, Su Yan stepped out of the imperial tent, and at once saw the man kneeling under the moonlight, dressed in cold armor.
"What is it?" Su Yan asked.
Guo Xing did not raise his head, his voice sowhat heavy: "Empress, the front line has already captured Fengdu City..."
Captured it, yet her heart felt vaguely uneasy...
After pausing, Guo Xing suddenly knocked his head on the ground three tis, sorrowfully saying: "Empress, please persuade the Emperor! Now, only you can dissuade him!"
"What’s wrong with the Emperor?" Su Yan’s unease intensified.
"The Emperor has ordered that tonight he will... massacre the city! I couldn’t persuade the Emperor, so I have to ask the Empress to persuade him! Empress, Fengdu City has seventy thousand citizens, please save them!"
Boom—
Su Yan felt her mind turn blank.
Her worries had indeed co true.
She knew he would be unable to control his emotions and do sothing ruthless...
Massacre the city...
So many citizens in Fengdu City, if all were killed, it would surely be a river of blood...
He must have forgotten, forgotten the purpose of unifying the world.
It is to allow the people of the world to live in peace and prosperity, not to bring them disaster.
Ever since the war began, he had strictly ordered that the army not oppress or harm the citizens.
Yet this ti, he forgot...
If he really massacres the city, then everything they have done, what aning does it have?
It would even deepen their sins...
Her body swayed a bit, Su Yan gritted her teeth and calmly said: "Take to see the Emperor!"
"Yes!" Guo Xing imdiately stood up, eager to take Su Yan to the front.
Although he was a person of the Great Nan Dynasty, he could not bear to see so many citizens die unjustly.
The Emperor did not heed his advice, so he had no choice but to secretly find the Empress, hoping she could prevent the Emperor from making a grave mistake.
In his eyes, the Emperor is an ancient wise ruler, and must not let this massacre destroy his brilliance in an instant...
