Three days later, Lanyan City was extremely quiet in the midsummer.
The breeze swayed the willow trees outside the city, making a rustling sound.
There was an endless stream of business travelers outside the city.
Lanyan City was different from Wugu City, even after the city was massacred.
It is still very prosperous, and a large number of people have moved from the Yunzhong Province and the Seven Seas Province, making this empire not lose its former prosperity.
Lin Muyu and Qin Yan were already stopped when they rode into the city wearing clothes and armor.
Zhang Wei was shocked when the centurion on duty brought them to Zhang Wei.
"Sir, you are finally back."
Zhang Wei jumped up, hugged Lin Muyu, and laughed loudly: "Old Zhang has been worried that you will be killed by the demons."
Lin Muyu hurriedly pushed him away and asked: "Master Zhang Wei, have you received the feather letter we sent back from Cangnan Province?"
"Well, I received it a long time ago.
Let's go.
We are going to Zetian Palace now.
It is time for the afternoon meeting."
"good" Although the entourage sent by Xiang Yu was full of hostility, Zhang Wei, as the deputy commander of the imperial army, could not resist and had no choice but to follow him to the palace.
Even before he had time to change his bloodstained clothes and armor, Lin Muyu walked up to the Zetian Palace.
There were not many officials in the Zetian Palace, but they were all important ministers with great power.
Su Muyun, Tang Lan, Xue Ling, Tang Lu , Tang Tian, Su Yu and others were all there, as well as a large group of civil servants and generals such as Shangshu Ling and Hubu Shangshu.
"Temple Archdeacon Lin Muyu comes to visit" The courtiers kept shouting: "The young prince Qin Yan has an audience with Master Zhang Wei."
On the emperor's throne, Qin Yin was wearing a robe embroidered with golden purple yin flowers.
She suddenly sat up, with dark blue tassels hanging on the skirt.
She held the hilt of the purple yin sword and looked into the distance.
Suddenly, she couldn't bear it.
Unable to hold on any longer, he stepped down the royal steps.
"Your Highness" Su Muyun coughed and said, "Please maintain your dignity."
Qin Yin stopped and stood there, about a few meters away from Lin Muyu.
She looked at him with a pair of starry eyes full of nostalgia, twitched her delicate red lips and murmured: "Brother Ayu, are you okay?"
Lin Muyu took a step forward, knelt down on one knee in front of Qin Yin, and whispered: "Lin Muyu saw Her Majesty the Empress Xiao Yin, I'm fine.
It's just that the Yangwei Army was completely destroyed except for me and A Yan who escaped." ” "Well, get straight now" Lin Muyu stood up and after looking around for a week, he realized that something was not right in the atmosphere.
Feng Jixing, Wei Qiu and others looked at him with anxious eyes, while Tang Lan, Su Muyun, Tang Lu and others looked at him with anxiety.
With derision.
"Min Yulin died in the battle, right?"
Tang Lu suddenly asked with a smile.
"yes."
"Weihou Min Yulin had 50,000 elite soldiers who died in the battle in Dongshuang City.
Why was the Archdeacon able to retreat to Lanyan City intact?
Is it really like what Xiang Yu said in the feather book that the Archdeacon escaped from the battle?
, Abandoning the dignity of an imperial soldier, abandoning Min Yulin and others."
Tang Lu's eyes were full of cruelty, and he shouted and asked: "Lin Muyu, as the chief deacon of the temple, have you forgotten the dignity of being an imperial soldier?"
"I didn't run away before the battle."
Lin Muyu looked at him indifferently and said, "Xiang Yu is one of yours.
There is no need to pour dirty water on me by singing along like this.
If I wanted to escape, I would have escaped long ago.
Why wait until Dongshuang City is broken?
That moment."

"Yeah" A trace of pride flashed across Tang Lu's eyes, and he said, "I knew you would deny it.
Fortunately, we still have witnesses.
Come on, bring the witnesses to Zetian Hall."
Lin Muyu's eyes were cold and he looked at Tang Lu calmly, but he didn't know what his so-called witness was.
Qin Yan was extremely angry and gritted his teeth.
Qin Yin was a little displeased and frowned: "Lingbei Hou, you clearly know that Lin Muyu is my sworn brother, why do you need to make things difficult for him like this?"
Tang Lu clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Your Highness, the general is not trying to make things difficult, it's just the facts.
Your Highness will just watch and the truth will come to light soon."
"oh" Qin Yin raised the corner of her mouth and said calmly: "Lingbei Hou, if you don't have sufficient evidence to say that Lin Muyu escaped from the battle, then don't blame me for taking away your title."
Tang Lu was stunned, and Tang Lan beside him frowned and said nothing.
As one of the two princes of the empire, Tang Lan held half of the country in his hands.
He had begun to hide behind the scenes at some point, and all the intentions were completed by Tang Lu and Tang Tian.
A few minutes later, under the protection of a group of Zetian Palace warriors, a general wearing broken armor walked into the hall.
When he came to Lin Muyu and Qin Yan, Lin Muyu almost broke his steel teeth.
"Shi Huo" "Lin Muyu" Shi Huo's face was full of anger, and he said: "You didn't think that I could still fight out of Lingdong Province alive, did you, a timid young man who doesn't dare to fight against the demons, you still have the nerve to return to Lanyan City?
"?"
With that said, Shi Huo suddenly turned around and faced Qin Yin, clasping his fists and saying: "Your Highness, on August 12, Dongshuang City was attacked by demons.
One hundred thousand armored demons besieged the Yangwei Legion.
The Lord ordered us to fight to the death, but he didn't want to."
Lin Muyu led his troops to retreat early and left Dongshuang City, and escaped while we were fighting with the demons.
There were even rumors that he had colluded with the demon leaders.
Please be aware of it, Your Highness."
"You're talking nonsense" Qin Yin's eyes were like sharp swords: "Brother Ayu is not that kind of person.
Come here, drag Shi Huo down and chop him down."
Tang Lu said hurriedly: "Your Highness, General Shi Huo has reasons and is not nonsense.
Shi Huo, why don't you come up with your evidence quickly?"
Shi Huo gritted his teeth and looked at Lin Muyu.
He took out a broken battle flag from his arms with the word "Min" faintly written on it.
He also took off the sword from his waist and wrapped the sword with the battle flag. : "Your Highness, this is what Lord Min Yulin entrusted to the general before he died in battle.
In addition, the Lord has some words for me to convey to His Highness."
"Say."
Qin Yin said calmly.
Shi Huo said: "The Lord said that Lin Muyu recruited troops without permission.
He was very authoritative in the army and had a disobedient heart for a long time.
Moreover, Lin Muyu had always personally formulated the food routes for the army, but he was easily manipulated by the demon armored demon.
The food was cut off due to the attack.
Someone must have tipped off.
On July 30th, Lin Muyu led people out of the city to pull out the poisonous arrows from the demons, and brought the plague into Dongshuang City, killing There are tens of thousands of imperial troops.
On August 9, the tunnels dug by Commander Chai Hong were also discovered by the demons.
The only people who knew about it were a few commanders and Lin Muyu.
Someone must have informed them.
All the commanders had died in the battle, but Lin Muyu was still alive.
Everything has proven that Lin Muyu has collaborated with the enemy and has colluded with the leader of the demon clan for a long time.
Your Highness, you cannot tolerate him just because he is a sworn brother, otherwise" Qin Yan was furious, pointed at Shi Huo, and shouted: "You are spitting blood on others, you beast, you are spitting blood on others" Qin Yin's eyes fell on Lin Muyu and said softly: "Brother Ayu, tell me that what he said is all false."
Lin Muyu's heart was full of mixed feelings, full of bitterness, but she couldn't express it.

She cupped her fists and said, "Your Highness, part of what he said is true, but there is also part that he didn't say."
"Well, Brother Ayu, tell me" Lin Muyu turned to look at Shi Huo and said: "The day before Dongshuang City was destroyed, I discovered that Shi Huo and his men dug up the corpses of imperial soldiers who died in the battle and cooked them.
When the prince was about to question him, Shi Huo committed treason and led The 5,000 troops from Qihai City secretly opened the south gate of Dongshuang City in order to leave, which directly led to the destruction of Dongshuang City. " Shi Huo's body was trembling, and he pointed at him: "You, you are so bloody!"
Lin Muyu's eyes turned cold and he shouted in a low voice: "Shihuo Dongshuang City is surrounded on all sides.
You know the combat power of tens of thousands of armored demons, and I also know that I only managed to escape with Ayan after a narrow escape.
How can you do that with your little ability?"
If you can come out, and you hold the prince's sword and battle flag, there is only one explanation.
You surrendered to the demon clan and agreed to be a slave, so they let you back to Lanyan City and used you as their internal agent to defeat Lanyan.
City, isn’t it?”
"you" Shi Huo's face turned red and he said angrily: "Don't use such monstrous words to confuse people and frame me."
Behind Shi Huo, Tang Lu also said with a livid face: "Lin Muyu, the facts are in front of you, and there is no room for your sophistry.
You just ran away without a fight.
Don't you still admit it?
Shi Huo is a brave general of our Qihai City.
He has always been They are all warriors who are fighting at the forefront of the army.
He will not lie.
I guarantee it with my life."
"Then your life is too worthless."
Lin Muyu looked at Tang Lu with a sneer, and suddenly pulled out the Dragon Spirit Sword from his waist.
With a "puff" sound, the blade came out straight through Shi Huo's back, piercing through the heart with one strike.
"Oh my god" Everyone was shocked.
No one thought that Lin Muyu would suddenly kill Shi Huo.
"Lin Muyu" Tang Lu looked at the fallen Shi Huo, his face pale: "You are crazy, you madman, you dare to kill people in Zetian Palace, but you still have Her Majesty the Empress in your eyes, you" "Brother Ayu, you" Qin Yin looked at him in confusion.
"Keng" The Dragon Spirit Sword suddenly pierced the jade brick in front of the palace.
Lin Muyu looked up at Qin Yin on the king's steps and murmured: "Xiao Yin, the invasion of the demon army is imminent.
Once they cross the Dao River, they will be able to conquer the plain.
Destroy the Qin Empire and this country will cease to exist.
I don’t want to waste any second.
Zhong is arguing with these sycophants here.
If Shi Huo is really that brave, he will not be killed by me.
Time will prove everything.
I agree with how to punish me, but we must send troops to reinforce Wugu City and Shenying City as soon as possible.
Set up defenses along the tributaries of the river, otherwise it will be too late once the demons cross the river. " Feng Jixing murmured: "Ayu, the demons are really that powerful."
"Um."
Lin Muyu nodded lightly and said: "Brother Feng, you must be careful once you face the demons.
They have at least 100,000 armored demon legions.
The combat power of one armored demon can be equal to twenty elite soldiers of the empire."
"What?"
Feng Jixing was shocked
