Chapter 100 Inviting everyone

"Report—" In the capital city of Daxia, the city was deserted and deserted. Horses galloped past on dead leaves with their hooves. The horsemen were wearing armor and shouted loudly, breaking the silence of the capital city.

On the west side of the capital, five thousand troops were camped here. These were the last elite soldiers left to Yu Qining by his father, and the rest followed him on the front lines to fight the enemy bravely.

Yu Qining was wearing a big cloak and looking in the direction of the city gate outside the tent. Dead leaves were swirling and falling in front of her. It was already late autumn. This battle had been fought for almost three years. The bustling capital city in the past was already a bustling city. The city is empty.

"Princess, there is a messenger coming from the front to report!" Yu Qining's lieutenant came forward to report.

Yu Qining's expression changed, "Hurry up."

The postman who had traveled thousands of miles entered the tent and knelt down with a plop, feeling deeply sad. Yu Qining instantly had a bad premonition, and she hurriedly backed away.

 “What’s the news? Say it quickly!”

“Princess, Your Majesty... Your Majesty, he...”

"What's wrong with your father?" Yu Qining stood up and asked anxiously, feeling uneasy in his heart.

Yu Qining took it and said, "You go out first."

The postman took out a box and said, "This is something that your Majesty repeatedly told me before his death that he must deliver it to you."

“Princess, His Royal Highness is discussing the situation on the front line with General Zuo in the tent.”

 “Your Majesty passed away in the county town at the beginning of the day the night before yesterday!” The post envoy knelt his head on the ground, his face full of sorrow, and he broke down in tears.

His eyes were dazzled, and the sword in Qining's hand was already placed on his neck, and his murderous intent was revealed.

"How could it happen?" The deputy general's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it. How could it happen so quickly with His Majesty in charge?

 The people in the capital took all the grain away before moving, and they didn't have much leftover.

“It doesn’t matter, the front line can’t hold out any longer, and Chu’s army will soon enter the capital.”

 Father died? Yu Qining stood up angrily and exclaimed: "How is it possible? The day before yesterday, my father had communicated with me, how could it be! Tell me! Are you a spy sent by the Chu State to shake the morale of the army?!"

With a "clang" sound, the sword in his hand fell to the ground. Yu Qining's face turned pale and he was about to fall.

The imperial edict stated that the throne of the Great Xia Kingdom was passed to the crown prince Yu Tangun, but the letter said that if the enemy army entered the capital and they were unable to resist, how to escape unscathed, and all the preparations were listed one by one.

There was silence in the pitch-black camp. After Yu Qining sat there all night, he summoned his lieutenant.

The backbone of the front line is gone, so what else is there to discuss? Yu Qining could foresee that within ten days at most, the Chu army would approach the capital.

“Keep an eye on His Highness the Crown Prince and don’t let him act impulsively. Let the soldiers eat and drink well these days, strengthen their training, and stay vigilant at all times.”

"What?"

"What Wei Chen said is absolutely true. Ten days ago, His Majesty was shot by a stray arrow on the battlefield and fell into a coma. During this period, he only woke up twice. Once, he asked us to block the news. We must not spread the news that he was injured. , the second time was the night before yesterday, His Majesty's complexion improved a lot, even the ministers thought that His Majesty had improved, who would have thought..."

“Did your father say anything before he died?” she said with chattering teeth.

The lieutenant general hesitated a little, "But princess, we don't have much food anymore. If we eat with an open stomach, I'm afraid..."

 “Where is the prince?”

 Her father was still thinking about them before he died, leaving a way for them to survive.

 “Yes, I am resigning.”

 She opened the box, and inside there was a letter written by her father, a bright yellow imperial edict, and the imperial seal.

"Father has passed away." Yu Qining said calmly, and there was no trace of the loss of control yesterday, but there were blood stains on his hands under his sleeves.

"What?" The deputy general couldn't bear the impact, took a few steps back, and screamed.

No wonder, the princess would say this. An army that loses its commander is like losing the first wolf in a pack of wolves. It is vulnerable. Soon, it may be their last battle.

"This matter is not allowed to be mentioned to anyone, including His Royal Highness. Keep an eye on him. Father has left a route. If necessary, you can take him away."

 Li Qingyun, the deputy general, is devoted to the country, loyal, and highly skilled in martial arts. He is the best person to entrust him.

Li Qingyun's eyes were filled with tears and he was extremely sad. He understood the princess's good intentions and slowly knelt down and kowtowed, "I will definitely live up to the trust of your majesty and the princess and swear to protect the crown prince to the death."

“I...Yu Qining has thanked General Li.” Her wide sleeves were folded, and she was slightly blessed. At this moment, she was not a princess of a country, but just a grateful sister.

“Sister, what are you doing?” Not far away, a young man in white robe walked over.

"Nothing." Yu Qining calmed down his expression and changed the subject, "How was the discussion with General Zuo?"

Li Qingyun quickly retreated.

“Sister, I have a plan. The county and city are currently at war. We can...”

The autumn wind has picked up again, but Yu Qining’s back is still straight. Her father is gone, and she must not fall down.

 “Okay, Ka, this one passed, perfect.” Gu Liangxiu nodded with satisfaction, and the onlookers and staff also applauded. It was a great performance.

Yunsu's straight back relaxed. She came out of the character state. She now has some taste for acting. Playing another person is like experiencing another person's life, which is quite interesting.

 Gu Xushi also went aside to rest, and the makeup artist quickly touched up his makeup. Yunsu's part was over, and he still had the next thing to do.

“Susu, there is only one last scene left for you.” Gu Liangxiu said to Yunsu.

"Okay." Yunsu nodded, "By the way, are you free on the weekend?"

"What's wrong?"

Yunsu handed over an invitation letter, "I have a performance on the weekend, and I invite you to go and see it." "Oh, yes, I will definitely go then." He still had this little time, and Gu Liangxiu didn't take it seriously. Look, I put it in the bag aside.

 “Then I’ll leave first.”

 “Okay, Xiao Xu, send Miss Yun back.” Xiao Xu is the assistant sent by Juntang Shi to follow the team.

On the way back, Yunsu gave two more invitations to Xiao Xu and asked him to pass them on to Uncle Jun and Jun Muye.

  ————

“Susu, do you have time on the weekend?” Yao Shuige asked her during lunch.

weekend? "I have something to do over the weekend, what's wrong?"

"Huh?" Yao Shuige said disappointedly, "I wanted to ask you to go to the concert with me, but you don't have time. Just forget it."

Yunsu paused while eating, "Concert?"

"Yes, Master Nova's tour concert will be held at Lanya Art Museum on weekend nights." Yao Shuige looked fascinated. She has a good family and has been learning piano since she was a child. Master Nova is a myth in the hearts of almost every piano learner. .

 Many students in No. 1 Middle School have received an elite education since childhood. The news that Master Nova is going to hold a concert has long spread among the upper circles of Lancheng. Every family is trying their best to show off their talents for their own children, but it is still difficult to get a ticket.

"This ticket is going crazy. My dad asked a lot of people to get it. It's a pity. I'll think about who else can go with me."

"I can go."

"Really? Aren't you in trouble?" Yao Shuige said in surprise.

 “It just so happens that we are the same thing.” Isn’t this a coincidence?

Yao Shuige's eyes widened, "What? You were going to the concert? Where did you get the tickets?"

 “I don’t need a ticket.”

 “Huh?” Yao Shuige didn’t understand.

 “I’ll get you something later, let’s eat first.”

 Twenty minutes later, Yao Shuige looked at the beautiful invitation in his hand and fell into silence, "Read it to me, I don't seem to know the words."

The gold-gilded squiggles are particularly beautiful, and Yao Shuige speaks with ease, "Can you please tell me what does it mean to come to the concert of Mr. Nova and the special guest performer Miss Yunsu?"

  She knew every word when it was taken apart, but when put together, she was completely confused.

 “I only performed one piece, and it didn’t last long.”

"Is this a matter of duration?" Yao Shuige looked at the unknowing person in Versailles with a resentful tone, "You can actually perform on the same stage as Mr. Novan. What have you done?"

 “Nothing? Just sing a song.”

 “Forget it, stop talking, I will die of soreness if you talk any more.”

She was jealous for only three seconds before she became happy again and said happily: "If I had known, I would have asked my dad to go around to get tickets. Now I am the one invited by the performer."

Yunsu was dumbfounded by the speed of her face change, "You can bring your uncle and aunt with you."

“Forget it, my dad has no musical talent at all.” Yao Shuige curled his lips.

 “Then you make the arrangements yourself.”

 “Okay.” Yao Shuige carefully put the invitation away.

Yunsu also gave two to Lian Yu and Qin Cheng, and asked Lian Yu to ask about his family and come with him if he had time.

"Don't worry, I will definitely go." Lian Yu closed his shocked jaw and said confidently.

Just kidding, it would be strange if his family didn't rush for a rare performance opportunity like Sister Yun's.

“Wow, Xiaoyan, why do you have so many tickets for Master Nova’s concert?” A girl exclaimed, looking at the few tickets that Yunyan ‘accidentally’ took out, and the title became affectionate.

Yun Yan showed a friendly smile and said, "My father is friends with the owner of Lanya Art Museum, and he gave me a few tickets."

 Then she frowned in distress, "But I'm only one person, so I don't need so much. Do you want to go? I can give you one."

“Really? It’s hard to get this ticket now, so you just give it to me like this?” The girl was surprised and doubtful.

“It doesn’t matter, it’s just a ticket. It’s a waste if I can’t use it, so I’ll give it to you.” Yun Yan handed over a ticket.

"Thank you, Xiaoyan, you are so kind. I misunderstood you because of those rumors before, so I'm really sorry." The girl felt a little guilty.

“It’s okay, everyone just has some misunderstandings about me.”

“Xiaoyan, can you give me one too?” Another girl said cautiously. She had said bad things about Yunyan before.

 “Here.” Yunyan handed out the ticket generously.

 “Xiaoyan, I want it too, please, please.”

 “Me too, please, Xiaoyan.”

                                …

Yun Yan gave away the tickets one by one. Seeing everyone's expressions of gratitude, she sneered in her heart. These losers could be bought with just one ticket.

But it can change everyone’s impression, and it’s not in vain that she spent a lot of money to get these tickets, so it’s not a loss.
