The atmosphere in the city became increasingly eerie, so Chen Changsheng, Lin Wan'er, mother and daughter, temporarily settled down there.
At this time, even Chen Changsheng himself did not dare to run around.
Li Yin, who is furious, will definitely find him at all costs!
Although Chen Changsheng was very confident in his own strength, there were countless masters in the capital, and there were also many troops. Even if he could protect himself, Lin Wan'er and her daughter would be dead, so he could only choose to hide himself.
As for everything outside, leave it to King Jin Li Ke to handle!
The days passed by leisurely.
Chen Changsheng, relying on his superb disguise skills, would occasionally go out to buy some food and gather information about the outside world. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed...
"Chen Changsheng, is there any news today?" Lin Wan'er asked.
"There is no specific news, but there are a lot of rumors. A large number of refugees are coming from Qingzhou. It is said that Qingzhou has been conquered. I guess the next step should be the capital!" Chen Changsheng was holding some rice and flour, as well as some meat and vegetables in his hands.
Because of the war, the economy is almost collapsed, and food in the capital is becoming more and more expensive!
Fortunately, Chen Changsheng has plenty of ways to make money, so they are not short of food and drink.
"Qingzhou is the barrier of the capital. The commander of Qingzhou's Xuanwu Pass is a capable man. My father once said that he is a general who is good at defense. The Xuanwu Army he leads is also the elite in the world. How could it be breached so quickly?" Lin Wan'er said in surprise.
Lin Wan'er also comes from a military family, how could she not know the importance of Qingzhou?
That is the gateway to the capital. As long as Qingzhou is there, the capital can be safe!
If Qingzhou is lost, the road ahead will be smooth. The rebels will gallop forward and reach the capital city within two days!
"What if I tell you that the Qingzhou Mu was originally Li Ke's man?" Chen Changsheng said.
Back then, the demonic monk killed a bandit leader in Zhengyang Mountain in Qingzhou. It turned out to be the son of the Qingzhou governor. From that moment on, Chen Changsheng knew that Li Ke had been planning this move for a long time, and he was probably waiting for this moment...
No matter how skilled the Xuanwu Pass guard was, he could only defend against an opponent coming from the front, but not from behind...
"So, the King of Qi...oh no, the King of Jin will soon invade the capital?" Lin Wan'er said with her eyes lighting up.
Her father, Lin Yong, is already a general under the command of King Jin!
"I guess it should be about done..." Chen Changsheng nodded.
"So... the Great Zhou is about to be finished?" Lin Wan'er murmured.
"Why, are you still nostalgic for Li Yin?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"Li Yin... Of course I don't have any attachment to him. He's cold-hearted and narrow-minded... I wish he'd die sooner rather than later!"
"But, the empire that has been ruled for hundreds of years has just changed hands like that?" Lin Wan'er sighed.
"How can there be a stable state in this world? Take the Jin Kingdom for example. It also lasted for over two hundred years, through twelve generations of emperors... but wasn't it still destroyed by Emperor Xizong?"
"Going further back, whether it was the State of Jin or the Great Zhou, they all belonged to a larger nation, the State of Qin!"
"The general trend of the world is that long periods of unity will eventually lead to division, and long periods of division will eventually lead to unity. Human power cannot stop destiny, so why should we feel sorry for ourselves?" Chen Changsheng said.
Chen Changsheng looked at Chen Changsheng with a very strange look, as if he had discovered a new world...
"Chen Changsheng, you are indeed a genius in the world. Not only are you good at martial arts, but you are also knowledgeable. The general trend of the world is that things that are together for a long time will eventually separate, and things that are divided for a long time will eventually come together... If you look at history carefully, it is indeed so..." Lin Wan'er said with shining eyes.
In his previous life, he was indeed a man of great literary talent. He could easily fool the Queen with just two sentences...
The Imperial Palace, the Throne Room!
Li Yin sat upright on the dragon throne, his trembling legs vaguely revealing his uneasiness...
"Your Majesty, the governor of Qingzhou has rebelled. At some point, the thief king, Li Ke, has hidden a detachment of troops on Zhengyang Mountain. Under the protection of the governor of Qingzhou, they attacked Xuanwu Pass..."
"Xuanwu Pass was attacked from both sides and fell without receiving any external reinforcements..." said the new Minister of War Su Qin, who stepped forward.
"What? Xuanwu Pass is gone too? Where is the commander of Xuanwu Pass? Does he know that Xuanwu Pass is the barrier guarding Qingzhou? If Xuanwu Pass is lost, Qingzhou will be difficult to defend. If Qingzhou is lost, the enemy army can march to the gates of the capital!" Li Yin said angrily.
"Your Majesty, the commander of Xuanwu Pass... has died for his country..." Su Qin sighed lightly.
"Didn't the imperial edict to support the king have been issued long ago? When will the army formed by various states to support the king arrive in the capital?" Li Yin said in horror.
He had never imagined that in just three months, the situation would change so drastically that his favorable situation would be completely lost...
Under the leadership of Lin Yong, the Jin army was invincible and undefeated. His kingdom was already in danger...
