Chapter 202: Welcome Back the Emperor, the Storm Is Coming Again

The sound of the messenger's announcement made Fang Tianyao, the lost King of the Four Seas, have to brace himself up.

At this time, Fang Tianyao had no time to think about how Wu Sanjia broke through Emperor Hongxi's Yangtze River defense line and reached the base of the Jiangyin Navy camp unimpeded.

He only knew that if he couldn't resist the offensive of the Tiger Army outside the city, once the navy camp was defeated, Fang Tianyao would no longer be the superior King of the Four Seas, but a prisoner like a dead dog.

If the warship is gone, it can be rebuilt, but if the naval force in hand is gone, there will be no capital to settle down in this troubled world.

"Your Majesty, our naval force is good at water warfare, but not at defending the city. Once the Tiger Army outside the city is allowed to attack the camp, this simple wooden city wall may not be able to hold on!"

At this time, the deputy general of the Daxin Navy saw that his prince had been wandering in a fuzzy state and could not come up with an idea to meet the enemy, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and give advice:

"Your Majesty, from General Yi Mo's point of view, we must rush to release the boats to break out of the siege before the Tiger and Ben troops land on the siege. As long as we reach the water, it will be our navy's home ground;"

"Whether you go north along the river to Jinling City and seek refuge with Emperor Hongxi, or go down the river to the sea and become king on your own, you can advance and retreat freely and with ease!"

"Your Majesty, you must make a decision as soon as possible, Your Majesty!"

The navy lieutenant, who was also a pirate, tried to persuade his prince.

"No-"

Suddenly, the King of the Four Seas Fang Tianyao, who had come back to his senses, roared angrily, saying: "This is absolutely unacceptable. If you abandon the city and flee at this time, you will fall into Wu Sanjia's scheme."

Fang Tianyao, who came to his senses, immediately said to his navy generals: "Everyone, we, the officers and men of the Daxin Navy, have always respected Emperor Daxin Lingwu and have never done anything arrogant;"

"And Wu Sanjia and Huben Jun also marched south from Yingzhou City to King Qin of Beijing under the banner of Emperor Lingwu;"

"Essentially speaking, this king and Wu Sanjia are loyal generals fighting to support the new dynasty and the country of Emperor Lingwu;"

After a pause, Fang Tianyao continued: "Now, he, Wu Sanjia, knows no distinction between loyal and treacherous, and directly leads his troops to attack our navy camp without asking any questions. He wants to rebel!"

"No, I will go to the emperor's palace now and ask the emperor and the queen mother to come forward in person to see if Wu Sanjia really wants to be treated like this unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust person!"

"Come here, come with me to greet the Emperor and the Queen Mother!"

"The rest of the soldiers guarding the city must remember not to take the initiative to attack the Huben army outside the city before the king comes back, so as not to fall into disgrace;"

Fang Tianyao ordered: "If the Tiger and Ben troops outside the city attack the camp, shout to them and say that my prince has gone to invite the emperor and the queen mother. Ask him if Wu Sanjia wants to rebel?"

"If the Tiger Army outside the city does not listen to the advice and still attacks the navy camp, then we will counterattack at that time!"

"Do you understand everything?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

...

Navy Camp, the palace of Emperor Daxin Lingwu.

In name, it is a palace, but in fact it is just a remote side palace in the naval camp.

The increasingly haggard Queen Mother Su Waner was washing the young Emperor Lingwu with the help of her personal maid. The mother and son had just gotten up not long ago.

"Escort——"

Suddenly, the sound of escorts sounded outside the side hall, which made Empress Dowager Su feel nervous and subconsciously hugged the young Emperor Lingwu tightly.

Running all the way to escape has already formed a conditioned reflex in the young Queen Mother. Any disturbance is enough to make her nervous.

Soon, the door to the side hall was pushed open from the outside.

The person who broke into the palace was He Changdong, the stern-looking commander of the Imperial Guard Army, who was wearing armor and carrying a sword, and more than a hundred of his Imperial Guard soldiers who had come from the Imperial City of the capital to protect the Emperor and the Queen Mother.

More than a hundred soldiers wearing armor and carrying swords immediately stood on guard with swords in the hall after entering the palace.

He Changdong, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Forest Army, rushed over and knelt down to the Emperor and the Queen Mother: "To report to the Emperor and the Queen Mother, the general has just received news that unidentified enemy troops are attacking the naval camp;"

"The last general has led the Royal Guards here to protect him. If he has disturbed the Holy Master, I hope that the Emperor and the Queen Mother will forgive me!"

He Changdong explained his intention in just two sentences.

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Su immediately waved her hands and said with tears in her eyes: "General He, please get up quickly. The safety of the Ai family and the Emperor depends entirely on General He!"

He Changdong stood up and cupped his hands with fists, his eyes were determined, and he said firmly: "Please rest assured, the Queen Mother, even if the general has to risk his life, he will definitely send the Emperor and the Queen Mother out safely before the naval camp is destroyed!"

Boom, boom, boom!

As soon as He Changdong finished speaking, there was a rapid knock on the door outside the side hall.

"Escort!"

He Changdong drew his sword and rushed to the door of the side hall with rapid strides.

Outside the door, the voice of the King of the Four Seas Fang Tianyao came: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, please open the door. I am the King of the Four Seas Fang Tianyao!"

Hearing that it was Fang Tianyao calling the door, He Changdong subconsciously turned to look at Queen Mother Su.

The latter, with helpless eyes, shook his head at He Changdong.

He Changdong immediately understood the meaning of Queen Mother Su's eyes, which clearly revealed his distrust of the King of the Four Seas Fang Tianyao, and was afraid that Fang Tianyao would regard Emperor Lingwu as his surrender to the enemy before the naval camp was destroyed!

He Changdong nodded firmly to Empress Dowager Su again, and then used his eyes to signal his hundreds of soldiers to prepare for battle.

Finally, he shouted to the outside of the door: "I wonder why the prince came to see the emperor and the empress dowager?"

Fang Tianyao replied anxiously: "General He, please inform them that Wu Sanjia is going to rebel. He is leading his Tiger Guards to burn all the warships of my Daxin Navy;"

"Now, they are attacking my navy camp. Please ask the emperor and the empress dowager to make a decision for the officers and soldiers of my Daxin Navy!"

Swish!

When these words came out, He Changdong and Empress Dowager Su in the hall were both shocked.

For a moment, they couldn't judge the truth of Fang Tianyao's words.

Didn't the mighty general Wu Sanjia lead the new Tiger Guards to station on the other side of the Yangtze River, confronting the troops of Emperor Hongxi across the river?

All the warships of the Daxin Navy were transferred back to the Jiangyin Navy Camp by Fang Tianyao.

Now, it is said that the people who attacked the Navy Camp were Wu Sanjia and the Huben Army, which inevitably made Empress Dowager Su suspicious.

Outside the palace, Fang Tianyao was anxious.

Seeing that there was no response from the palace, he had to bite the bullet and continue to say: "General He, please inform the emperor and the empress dowager as soon as possible. This matter is extremely urgent!"

"If the emperor and the empress dowager don't show up, when Wu Sanjia's Huben Army breaks through the camp and fights with the navy officers and soldiers in the camp, the situation will really get out of control!"
