Chapter 1662: Arrived just in time
No one knows why Jun Yexuan specifically designated two old generals, Wan Jianshan and Qin Xiangbei, to be his left and right guards.
Perhaps, Gu Yunxi could understand that they were all the old subordinates of the Northern Emperor. They deserved it to stand on the martial arts stage with Jun Yexuan and accept the kneeling worship of all the subjects.
But, at least bring Yan Yi and Yang Yi with you!
But he only allowed Wan Jianshan and Qin Xiangbei to stay with him.
These...are old, weak and disabled soldiers. If someone really tries to assassinate them, what will the people above do?
Although his internal strength was unfathomable, his legs were still not in good condition. Even if he managed to stand up, he was unable to walk.
This guy, doesn't he know the danger?
Gu Yunxi was still waiting, and while waiting, she observed the movements around her.
Everyone was waiting quietly.
Wait for the auspicious time.
This wait lasted almost another half an hour.
Qin Xiangbei, who was sitting not far from Jun Yexuan, looked up at the sky, then exchanged glances with Wan Jianshan.
Wan Jianshan nodded.
The time has come.
Qin Xiangbei stood up.
The hearts of everyone below, including Mu Qinian and Gu Yunxi, tensed up in an instant.
"Guard it strictly!" Gu Yunxi said in a deep voice.
Although the soldiers around were silent, they were all in high spirits and ready for battle.
But at this moment, a man holding something in his hand hurriedly came to Gu Yunxi: "Your Highness, look!"
Gu Yunxi turned around, and when she saw clearly what Xiao Lingling was holding in her hand, her face instantly darkened!
"It's his leggings!" She immediately looked up at Jun Yexuan on the martial arts stage not far away.
He was still sitting in the chair, sitting very steadily, like a sculpture!
But why wasn't he wearing shin guards?
Without this leggings, how would he stand up later? Was he planning to use his inner strength to support his body?
Even Gu Yunxi didn't know whether this method was feasible or not. Throughout history, no one had ever been able to stand up with the help of his own internal strength after his legs were disabled.
This guy, what on earth does he want to do?
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Xiao Lingdang was also worried. This leg guard was personally delivered to Prince Xuan by Your Highness early this morning.
If she had not followed His Highness' instructions and gone to the prince's room to get the medicine box that His Highness had left behind last night, she would not have known that the prince had actually taken off his leggings.
"Your Highness, Prince... The Emperor is not wearing leggings. How will he stand up in front of all the civilians and soldiers?"
Little Bell was worried.
Gu Yunxi looked at the slender figure on the martial arts stage, her brows slightly furrowed.
Not far away, the sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer.
The spy came back and shouted, "Report! The general of Shuzhou City is leading his soldiers to surrender!"
I'm here to surrender!
Those soldiers who were ready to fight breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone felt a little more hopeful.
Since even the soldiers from Shuzhou City have come to surrender, then the soldiers from the other cities should have the same purpose, right?
Not long after, the deputy general of Shuzhou City led a team of soldiers and horses to deliver the congratulatory gifts: "The 30,000 soldiers of Shuzhou and the 150,000 subjects of Shuzhou City congratulate the emperor on his ascension to the throne. Long live the Emperor Xuanbei!"
The congratulatory team had a total of thirty carts of supplies, including brocade, silk, cloth, gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as carts of grain.
Shuzhou City is not as wealthy as Jinzhou City, but Shuzhou City is a major grain and oil city with abundant food. In the past, most of the grain and oil in Jinzhou City were purchased from Shuzhou City.
With the surrender of Shuzhou City, they will have very strong backing in future wars!
This team arrived just in time!
