g'er realized something was wrong, they all appeared.Shour immediately took action to unblock Ninger's acupoints.Finally able to move, when Ning'er just knelt down to confess her crime, she couldn't e...When word reached them that the army's rations were running low, Xizi Ke’er panicked, and even Mo Yunjing, who was usually calm and collected, frowned.

Having been engaged in military campaigns for many years, he naturally knew that a shortage of supplies at this juncture would be a grave matter.

At this moment, the soldiers surrounding Xizi Ke'er also tensed up. One of them immediately asked urgently, "Speak quickly, what's going on How could there be a problem with the grain and forage out of the blue"

The kneeling soldier's eyes were filled with guilt as he struggled to explain, "Those people bribed most of the soldiers guarding the granary. They worked together and burned it down in one night."

“By the time we discovered it, the fire was raging out of control. We could only manage to salvage a small portion of the grain stores. I had the soldiers from the kitchens confirm this, and even that meager supply is only enough to feed the troops for three days.”

"!"

The soldiers guarding the granary, numbering in the thousands at least, were actually bought off

What kind of promises did those people make to be able to turn so many soldiers

The generals present immediately erupted in angry curses.

Mo Yunjing, standing beside him, had piercing eyes that shone brightly.

As for this statement, I didn't offer any comments.

Upon closer inspection, it's not entirely out of the question.

Although Xizi P'er is dead, it doesn't mean that Xizi Ke'er can have her way.

The Western Liang Kingdom has a female emperor, and this female emperor of Western Liang herself commands at least over 100,000 soldiers. Adding in the imperial guard in the capital city, the Empress's power is not to be underestimated.

And now that Xizi and her daughter, Panger, have passed away, the soldiers under her command have all been taken in by the Empress.

In terms of troop numbers, the Queen vastly outnumbered Xi Zi Ke'er.

Having an absolute numerical advantage.

In the eyes of everyone, if Xizi Ke'er truly confronted the Empress of Xiliang head-on, she would have almost no chance of winning.

At such times, everyone looks out for themselves. It's natural that the soldiers guarding the grain stores would also want to secure their own survival.

To remain in Xizi Ke'er's army and continue to serve would likely lead to a dead end. Rebellion is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations. Not only would you die in battle, but your family, including your wife, children, and parents, would also suffer the consequences.

So, after weighing the risks, their decision to betray Xi Zi Ke'er wasn't all that surprising.

At this moment, Xizi Ke'er was completely tense, her hands clenched into fists as she stood there, the veins on her neck bulging.

No one knows what she's thinking at the moment, she's silent.

But those subordinates who had been with Xizi Ke'er for many years knew that this life-and-death battle had finally arrived.

This time, the Queen has gone all out, and their Highnesses have to fight.

They would ultimately have to face each other in a final, deadly confrontation.

After a moment of silence, Xizi Ke'er suddenly thrust her sword hard into the ground, her face turning cold. “Things have come to this, and this palace has no reason to retreat. All you generals, listen up, and pass down the order. Have everyone prepare for battle.”

All the soldiers standing beside her immediately knelt on one knee, raised their hands, and said in a loud voice, "Yes."

After those subordinates turned around to make the arrangements, Mo Yunjing suddenly spoke, "Your Highness, have you thought of any way"

Xizi Ke'er shook her head slightly, turning back, "What other options are there at this point Our supplies will only last for three days, so we have to resolve the situation within those three days. Besides a direct confrontation, what else can we do"

"……"

Mo Yunjing's expression froze for a moment.

Hearing Xizi Ke'er speak with such an imposing tone, he thought she had actually come up with a good plan after her contemplation earlier.

can withstand the dangers to come.

He really didn't expect her to answer like that, leaving him speechless for a moment.

On the side, An Xue Tang also blinked speechless after hearing Xizi Ke'er's words.

Looking at Xizi Ke'er, she seemed confident and excited. She truly believed she had come up with a plan.

At least she can get through this hardship.

Who knows, she couldn't come up with any ideas.

He actually wanted to use her ninety thousand plus soldiers to fight against the Empress's two hundred thousand plus soldiers. Isn't that like hitting a stone with an egg

At this moment, her thin lips parted slightly, as if she had something to say but then quickly closed them again.

It's enough, we can't discourage Xizi Ke'er at this time.

Xizi Ke'er was already sufficiently troubled and clear enough about how dangerous this situation was.

If she were to say something that disheartened her at this time, Xi Zichen might fall into despair.

After she finished speaking, Xizi Ke'er kept staring at Mo Yunjing's eyes, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something but held back.

Actually, she really wanted to ask Mo Yun Jing for help.

At least he was the renowned War God of Beijiang. If he could get her guidance at this time, perhaps she would have a chance against her own mother this time around.

But she also knew that she had no friendship with the King of Beijang.

Moreover, she wasn't stupid. The reason people from the Bai Guang Gong managed to escape was entirely because her subordinates hadn't initially gained control of them.

The King and Queen of the Northern Frontier, such intelligent people, probably already knew about her little secret.

So at this point, she could only turn to the Northern Border King for help. She really didn't know where to begin.

Though outwardly, the Princess of Beijang and she still seem to get along, the princess must have guessed something.

At first, she didn't tear up her face with the people of Baiguang Palace and control them. What was her purpose

And she couldn't deny that she had, at times, harbored thoughts of betraying King Beijiang and Queen Beijiang. So how could she possibly ask for their help now

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly, glancing at Xi Zi Ke'er's hesitant expression. She immediately guessed what she was thinking.

However, at such times, there is no need for Xizi Ke'er to ask for help.

Right now, she and Mo Yunjing and the others want to leave Xiliang safely, they truly need to rely on Xi Zi'er's 90,000 soldiers.

Otherwise, with their abilities, of course they wouldn't be able to escape back.

Thus, with a thoughtful look at Xizi Ke'er for a moment, she tugged on Mo Yunjing's sleeve.

Mo Yunjing lowered his gaze and saw her eyes. He immediately understood.

I saw a smile curl up at the corner of his mouth, he raised his hand to rub her head, his voice low and magnetic, "Things aren't at their worst yet, relax."

After that, he looked at Xizi Ke'er and said, “Your Highness, would you mind if I participated in this battle”

Xi Zi Ke'er's eyes lit up instantly, her heart pounding with excitement. She shook her head without hesitation, "I don't mind at all, of course not! If the King of Beijang is willing to help, I and the ninety thousand soldiers under my command will be eternally grateful."

"Rest assured, King of the Northern Border, after this battle, if we can overcome these difficulties, we will be at your service for anything you may need in the future."

Mo Yunjing's face was calm, his head tilted slightly. "This is a matter of urgency. Since Your Highness has agreed, let this King see your strategic plans and the most accurate topographical map of your Xiliang Kingdom first."stablish her as the crown prince, and even control her own mother to commit suicide...In this way, she would soon be able to ascend the throne.
