The fiefdom increases by 1 soldier in 1 second, and the empress kneels down and begs not to rebel

After the beginning of summer, the nights became much noisier. The chirping of unknown insects was always heard from the banyan tree outside the window. Although not as loud as the cicadas in July, it always disturbed Jin Changge and made it difficult for him to fall asleep when the night was quiet.

It was already the hour of Xu, and Jin Changge was still as usual, leaning alone in front of the railing on the second floor.

Her cut black hair was casually tied up with a white ribbon. She held her increasingly thin waist with both hands, leaning against the railing, with half of her face slightly raised facing the night sky, staring blankly at the waning moon.

Apart from the chirping of insects, it is indeed a quiet night, but the hearts of those who are in this quiet night are not at peace.

She had woken up in the middle of the night many times, but what disturbed her was not the chirping of insects, but a series of bizarre dreams. The people and things in the dreams were always so real, so real that she would even shed tears when she woke up.

The previous assassination was thrilling enough, but the determination she put in did not make her feel confused at all. All she had to do was to risk her life and draw her sword to challenge the enemy. But when all these things were settled, the lonely Gu Se came quietly.

A breeze carrying the scent of grass and trees blew lightly through the corridor, and the thin white sleeves swayed with it. Jin Changge picked up a strand of black hair that fell in front of her forehead and tucked it behind her ear, but her slender arms did not drop. She reached into her arms and held the round and smooth jade pendant hanging around her neck in her palm.

The warm jade pendant pressed against the slightly cold palm of her hand, and Jin Changge's calm eyes finally rippled. Then she raised her face and looked at the hazy moon.

A moonlit night, fireworks, a huge ship from a foreign country, a brutal fight to the death, and a call that will never be forgotten:

"I'm your brother."

Stumbling steps, broad back, and helpless words:

"Our ship is about to sink. Do you think we can still transfer to another ship at this time?"

"When the ship sinks, I will follow it down."

"call--"

Jin Changge suddenly exhaled a very long breath, and the jade pendant in her palm was also clenched suddenly. She lay weakly on the citron, biting the corners of her lips tightly, as if all the strength in her body was drained away at once.

Even though he tried hard not to think about it, the only person he cared about was engraved more and more clearly in his heart, and his ending was something Jin Changge had been trying to avoid these days.

But with His Majesty returning to Nangang this evening, Jin Changge could no longer escape, but she was unwilling to face it.

The complicated and tangled emotions almost tore the girl apart. The only person she cared about was, of course, her closest relative, but apart from his identity as her "brother", he was also a sinner who was hated and reviled.

The girl always tells herself what true justice is, and always practices this justice in herself, so she can go forward to assassinate those foreigners without fear of death. Then, in the face of this justice, her brother who treats her very well should also be the one to be eliminated.

However, even though he has warned himself countless times, the voice hidden in his heart is still saying - Second brother, I hope you can escape, escape far away, and hide among the people from now on. No matter what, just stay alive.

The girl knew that this was an unrealistic and selfish idea, and was contrary to the word "righteousness", but she couldn't abandon this idea. If God could fulfill one of her wishes, she thought she would make this prayer without hesitation.

But it is impossible after all. Maybe ignoring it is the best way to deal with it.

Jin Changge looked up at the night sky with lifeless eyes. She was so immersed in complicated emotions that she almost forgot the passage of time. She didn't even notice that Qin Ze walked into the house and stood downstairs watching her.

Qin Ze did not bring any followers in. Seeing Jin Changge looking up at the night sky in a daze, he went upstairs without saying a word.

It was not until he stepped into the wooden corridor that he realized that the woman in front of him had become thinner and thinner after only a few days of not seeing her. Qin Ze knew what she was thinking without having to guess.

So he reached out his hand to hold Yuanlan, also looked up at the night sky, and said calmly:

"The matter of Nan Ze is over."

The sudden male voice brought Jin Changge back to her senses from her trance. When she turned to look at the source of the voice, she was surprised to find that Qin Ze had come to her side without her knowing.

"You...when did you come?" The girl hurriedly put the jade pendant in her arms.

Qin Ze naturally noticed this action and whispered, "Wipe your tears."

In fact, he was most afraid of the sight of a woman crying, after all, it was extremely difficult to deal with.

The girl then quickly wiped her eyes and said, "Not at all."

"I saw it."

"that is not."

"Don't let your saliva flow upwards."

"......"

"Um...when did you come?" The girl could only change the subject.

"it's been a while."

"and you....."

"Don't you have anything to ask me?" Qin Ze turned around and looked at her with his head tilted.

The girl lowered her head, looked at her toes in silence, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "No."

Although she tried hard to restrain herself, tears welled up in her eyes again. The girl didn't dare to raise her face, let alone close her eyes and let the tears fall, so she had no choice but to turn her back to Qin Ze and look at the banyan tree.

But gradually, footsteps were heard behind her, getting closer and closer, until finally the lilac seemed to move, and the girl knew that he was leaning on it.

Qin Ze leaned against the railing, looked up and said, "Nan Ze fought all night and conquered it."

This was something Jin Changge had already learned this evening. She was deeply shocked when she first heard the news. After all, she knew Nan Ze very well, and the strength of this city was well known. In her initial plan, she thought that Qin Ze might need a long time to attack Nan Ze.

It could be as short as a month, or as long as several months, but the actual result was far beyond her expectations. From the departure from Nangang to the attack on Nanze, it took less than ten days in total.

Such swiftness and lightning speed are simply unprecedented. This rebel army, no, it should be said that this royal army has overwhelming power that is irresistible. Compared with the old dynasty, there is indeed a world of difference.

While attacking Nanze at such a fast speed is undoubtedly a good thing, it also means...

"They...ran away, or..." the girl said hesitantly.

Qin Ze turned around and looked at her back. After a moment of silence, he said:

"Some escaped, and some died." As he finished speaking, he saw the girl's body seemed to tremble.

So he continued:

"They didn't expect us to capture Nanze overnight, so not many people escaped."

"Before the siege, I sent insiders to distribute proclamations to keep the people of Nanze away as much as possible. This had some effect. At least during the siege, no civilians were seen participating in the battle."
