From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 1047

The straight official road stretches across the land. The season of July is the warmest here, with lush green grass, flying birds, and a vibrant land.

At the end of the official road, a towering city stands. It is the most dazzling pearl on this land, carrying thousands of years of history, and every inch of its outline contains human wisdom.

He is Shenzhou in the eyes of the Han people and Shengjing in the hearts of the Nuzhen people.

The wind blows, and the long hair flies.

Wanyan Daichan lifted the long hair between her eyebrows and looked at the city in front of her with mixed feelings.

Because she knew that all the beauty here would disappear with the subsequent war, the ancient city walls could not protect the people here, and the lion of the north was approaching, and the ending here was destined a few years ago.

Thinking of this, Wanyan Daichan sighed and whispered: "Cai Ni, why do we know what is going to happen, but we are always powerless."

Cai Ni rode on the horse's back, slightly raised her face, and let the sun shine on her face.

She smiled and said, "Master, Cai Ni doesn't understand these, but Cai Ni received a letter from the young master, saying that he is on his way."

Silly girl, he is here to be the savior. If people don't bleed, why do they need a savior?

He will come, but he will only come when Shengjing is slaughtered, and he will not protect in advance.

Huang Taiji and him seem to have taken everything into account, but they still can't avoid bloodshed and sacrifice.

As the people behind the scenes, as the strategic decision-makers of this land, they must be under more pressure than me.

Wanyan Daichan remembered the deep eyes of Huang Taiji when they left, as if they had seen the history of this land a hundred years later...

I will never see him again.

And this city is also waiting...waiting for a collapse of the sky.

There are too many emotions in my heart, too many things I want to say, but Wanyan Daichan has no one to tell.

"Well, when Zhou Yuan comes, everything will be fine."

She forced a smile and looked at her apprentice.

She couldn't bear to tell the girl the truth, she loved her after all.

"The princess is back!"

"The high priest is back!"

The city gates opened, and the soldiers who stayed behind cheered. They thought that the princess was back, so the front must have won.

Countless people poured into the streets, bringing food and drink to welcome the princess. They gathered together, singing Jurchen songs, and even dancing.

The scene was very lively, and under the sunshine, everyone had a smile on their face.

Are they Jurchens? There are Han people too... They live in this city, from the initial incompatibility, life and death, to now gradually becoming a family.

It turns out that Huang Taiji was right, time will always take away the scars, and ethnic groups can be integrated.

"Master! They are all welcoming you!"

Cai Ni smiled happily, waved her hands and said: "Your efforts have not been in vain. Gradually, they respect and love you more."

"Master, you are so good and excellent. I wish I had so many people who like you!"

Hearing Cai Ni's words, Wanyan Daichan almost collapsed. Her eyes were red and she said softly: "Silly girl, there are many people who like you, but you don't know how likable you are."

"At least Cai Ni is much more likable than you."

A faint voice came, and a tall girl on horseback slowly walked over, but was stopped by the guards.

Wanyan Daichan said, "Let her come over. She's one of us."

Cai Ni couldn't help but exclaimed, "Sister Qu Ling! It's Sister Qu Ling!"

She rushed over and couldn't help hugging Qu Ling, saying excitedly, "Sister Qu Ling, I miss you so much. I haven't seen you for more than half a year. Are Sister Ningyue and Sister Jianjia okay?"

Qu Ling was shaky and said, "Be careful, Cai Ni. I'm not as good at riding a horse as you are. Don't let me fall."

Cai Ni laughed and said, "No, I will protect you."

Qu Ling said, "Jianjia and the others are all very good. They just miss you. Without you at home, life is less interesting."

Cai Ni's eyes lit up and she said a little embarrassedly, "Then after we finish this war, let's have fun at home."

Qu Ling nodded, touched Cai Ni's face lovingly, and then came to Wanyan Daichan.

She said calmly: "I have been here for more than a month. I have bought up all the food on the market, stored it all, and sent caravans to transport it out in batches."

"I also spent a lot of money to drive away the cattle and sheep herders around Shenzhou. There is almost no grain, meat and other supplies left. Even if the Tsarist Kingdom invades, it can only complete a small amount of food supply."

Wanyan Daichan said: "Can you arrange for the people to evacuate?"

Qu Ling said: "I am just a businessman. I only do what Zhou Yuan asks me to do., I don't care about other things, do whatever you want. "

Wanyan Daichan couldn't help but said: "Sister Qu Ling, he didn't say anything..."

"Don't!"

Qu Ling waved her hand and said: "Don't call me sister, who is your sister?"

"Wanyan Daichan, some things may not be taken care of by others, but I remember them clearly."

"I saw how embarrassed Zhou Yuan was back then. Whether he was soft-hearted or big-minded, he forgave you anyway. I don't care. It's not easy for me to get through this."

"Don't talk to me about difficulties, what about being helpless at the beginning, who doesn't have difficulties living in this world these days?"

She rolled her eyes and snorted: "If it weren't for Cai Ni's face, I wouldn't even bother to see you. "

After saying that, she turned around and left on her horse.

"Sister Qu Ling... Hey..."

Cai Ni called out, but couldn't get back, so she smiled bitterly at Wanyan Daichan and said, "Master, don't take it to heart. Sister Qu Ling has always been very good. She just didn't figure it out for a while."

Wanyan Daichan looked at Qu Ling's back, sighed softly, and said softly, "She's right. I don't blame her."

She said bitterly, "Qu Ling is the smartest one. She usually laughs and jokes, but she sees things more clearly than anyone else."

"Of course she likes good girls like you and Ningyue. Of course, she won't easily forgive people like me who have made mistakes."

"It's okay, don't worry about her. "

Wanyan Daichan rode forward on her horse, looking at the cheering people around her, she felt unspeakable sadness in her heart.

Because she knew that she couldn't retreat...

In the city, she could still defend, hide, and hide. If she went out and was caught up by the cavalry, no one would survive in the vast plains.

She could only wait here...wait for the sky to collapse...wait for swords and spears.

At the same time, she also waited for Zhou Yuan, waiting for their competition and collision.

"Master, you have a nosebleed..."

Cai Ni came over anxiously, wiping it for Wanyan Daichan in a hurry.

Wanyan Daichan waved her hand and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm too tired during this period. ”

“How can it be okay…”

Cai Ni grabbed her hand and felt her pulse, and was shocked: “Master, you…how come your inner strength has regressed so much…”

Being entangled in worldly affairs, exhausted, and constantly wasting energy, of course there will be such a situation.

Wanyan Daichan didn’t know when she would get better. She was waiting, with this city, for a collapse of the sky.

Only after the collapse of the sky, this city would need a brand new hero.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, Wanyan Daichan still turned pale when she thought of the scene of the iron cavalry coming.

She gritted her teeth and growled: “Let Sheng Ye come to see me! Even if there is no garrison force, we must organize the people, sickles and hoes are fine, and we should protect as many people as possible. "

This is the best solution Wanyan Daichan could think of. Let the people organize resistance, and after the city is broken, delay the time to the greatest extent, waiting for Zhou Yuan's arrival.

Zhou Yuan... come quickly...

At the moment of the collapse of the sky, when Shengjing needs you the most.
