In the Northern Yuan Dynasty royal court, Xiao Sihai sat in the main seat. The noblest woman in the world looked at the secret folds in her hand and remained silent.

Below were kneeling a civil and military ministers, and the wise kings on both sides were standing.

Some well-informed ministers already knew what was going on and were thinking about what to say later.

Those ignorant knelt in panic, wanting to ask someone to ask, but due to the queen's majesty, they could only keep their words in their hearts.

Xiao Sihai put down the secret letter, his voice was soft, but he was full of majesty. He only heard her say, "The King of Yan is going to lead his troops south. Do you think I should go and help him?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the court was in an uproar.

King Zuo Xian stepped forward and knelt down and said, "King, I think it's OK. This is the opportunity we have been waiting for for many years. Even if there is a conspiracy afterward, the sons under our command can retreat calmly."

The Youxian King, who had always been incompatible with him, rarely agreed with this proposal. He knelt down and said, "This matter is beneficial to the great Yuan without any harm. The Zhou people said that if God does not give it, they will be blamed instead. Although I don't know why the King of Yan made such a decision, according to the news from the spy, the mobilization of the troops was real. This alone is enough to make us take action."

After the two of them finished speaking, the ministers began to express their thoughts one after another, and the golden tent was in a noisy moment.

Xiao Sihai was upset by the quarrel, and waved his hand, and the ministers immediately stopped.

She stood up from the throne, "This time was indeed my Dayuan opportunity. When my father was forced to withdraw from the north and cultivate and rest in the grassland, it was a great shame."

"However, even if it is an opponent, I have to admit that the King of Yan is indeed amazing. Well, it's just that he has set the plan ahead."

Xiao Sihai stood with his hands behind his back and said loudly: "This time, no matter what, we must take back the lost place!"

"I am willing to die for the king!"

...

The northern part is bitter and cold, and many places are deadly places that cannot be walked. Now there are only two roads that can open up the business with the Northern Yuan Dynasty. The road is narrow and difficult to walk on a day, so many caravans use this to get out of seclusion.

The other one is open and broad, but it is heavily guarded by troops all year round, so ordinary people are not allowed to approach it at all.

Pingcheng, located at the most border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is the first line of defense facing the Northern Yuan Dynasty. It can be said that if you want to go south, this city must be taken down.

However, at this time, when the King of Yan retreated his army and left only a few hundred cities to maintain order, the people were panicked.

For a time, there were many discussions in the city, saying that everything was said. Some scholars even scolded the King of Yan as a traitor, and for the sake of his own selfish desires, he ignored the lives and death of the world.

Many powerful families have begun to evacuate, but for the people, moving out of a place of growth is absolutely difficult.

It is not a joke to leave your hometown, but an idea rooted in everyone's heart.

Every day, you can see some wealthy businessmen leaving with their families, and the city gates are in a congestion.

The city guards who stayed behind had a determination to die, and did not stop the people who left the city, but were only present to maintain order.

This also creates an extremely interesting picture, with the exit being crowded, but the entrance to the city being deserted.

At noon that day, two people came from the entrance of Pingcheng.

One big and one small, the one big one is bald, and the one small is a child, holding hands and watching around.

When entering the city to inspect, the guards saw Wang Yu and his children, and said, "It's not peaceful recently. You're still running here. Are you looking for death? I advise you to leave quickly and go back and forth. When the Beiyuan Barbarians call you, you can't help but die or live."

Wang Yu smiled and shook his head, "I can't leave. I have to do what I promised others."

Seeing this, the guards didn't say much and waved their hands to signal them to go in.

Wang Yu brought Wang Conghua into the city, and most of the pedestrians on the street were anxious. If they came normally, the road would have been filled with stalls, but at this time there were only a few vendors who were still selling things.

And they are mostly very old and almost none of them young.

"Are you hungry?" Wang Yu asked, "Do you want to eat something?"

Wang Conghua nodded and the two walked towards a small noodle stall next to the road.

The boss is a gray-haired old woman with a little cloudy eyes and is wiping the table. When she saw a guest coming, a smile suddenly appeared on her face.

"Two people eat noodles?"

"Well, two bowls of beef noodles."

"Okay, okay, but the customer, the food in Chengli has increased significantly recently. Look at the price..."

"How much does a bowl cost?"

"Ten cents."

Wang Yu smiled on his face when he heard this, took out a piece of silver or two from his arms and placed it on the table, "Give more beef."

The old woman picked up the silver and bit it with her teeth. After confirming that it was true, she became more enthusiastic. She left the table in a few steps and went to cook noodles.

Wang Conghua came to a strange place and was a little scared. She sat next to Wang Yu and looked carefully at the pedestrians.

Not long after, the old woman came over with noodles and put a lot of chopped green onions on the beef, which looked very pleasant.

Wang Yu touched Wang Conghua's little head and said, "Eat."

The little girl, who had been hungry, slashed her head and picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

The old woman looked at the two of them eating noodles with a kind expression. Then she shook her head and sighed.

She picked up the rag and started wiping the table again.

Wang Yu quickly finished a bowl of noodles. Seeing that he was busy all the time, he asked, "Old woman, I don't think the business here is very good, why don't you rest for a while?"

"I've been doing it all my life and I can't get idle."

"Oh? Are your children still there?" Wang Yu hesitated for a moment and asked.

The old lady was stunned for a moment, smiled and said with a little pride: "Yes, you have seen him when you entered the city."

Wang Yu thought of the city guard, "So that's it, then you'll be blessed."

The old woman shook her head, "What kind of blessing is not good? My old man died for this city back then, and now my son wants to die for it. It can only be said that it is fate, and there is no way."

"No, no one will die in this city." Wang Yu said softly.

The old woman's eyes were not good, but her ears were very good. After hearing this, she sighed: "When I was young, I saw the Beiyuan Barbarians. Wherever they walked, there were corpses everywhere, so how could they give people a way out? I don't know what His Royal Highness Yan was thinking, and have you forgotten what he once said!"

"If you beg for mercy, can you survive?" Wang Yu asked suddenly.

"Oh, if you can live, there will be no so many people who want to leave. Guest, I advise you to eat this bowl of noodles, so let's go quickly. It won't take long before the Beiyuan Barbarian comes over and will not be able to leave."

At this time, Wang Conghua had finished eating and was pricking up his ears to listen to the two of them. After the old woman finished speaking, she retorted: "My young man is the most powerful person in the world and will not die!"

The old man's tender voice made him look a little dazed. After coming to his senses, he smiled bitterly, shook his head without saying anything.

Wang Yu took Wang Conghua out of the noodle shop and found an inn nearby that was still open. After paying the money, he prepared to stay.
