Chapter 1596: Going South alone
"What did you say? The imperial capital moved south, the old emperor passed away, and the eldest prince ascended the throne?"
?? "Impossible, absolutely impossible..."?? Zhou Jingyu, who got the news, was stunned, his heart trembled, and he staggered twice, shaking his head and disbelief.
Fang Yuanxi was also shocked by the news, and she couldn't help but worry about whether her father and the others had moved south with the emperor and the others.
?? "Don't go south. Now the imperial capital has been occupied by the Huns. I also heard that the Huns will be called emperor in the imperial capital."
Those refugees obviously came from the capital, not only in the south, but also in the entire heartland of the Central Plains, and are now being trampled by the iron hoofs of the Huns.
?? "Oh, the Great Zhou Dynasty is over."
?? "Yes, the foundation of hundreds of years has been flattened by the Huns. What will we do if we are the people..." "??I heard that the Huns have occupied the cities now and have not massacred the people."
?? "I hope it's true, let's continue to go north..."? This group of refugees ignored Zhou Jingyu, stared at him with wide eyes and stood there stupidly, Fang Yuanxi couldn't help but show his worry. [Liang Cheng ] pulled his arm and signed language: "Your Highness, do we still have to continue going south?"
??When Zhou Jingyu came to his senses, he still shook his head: "I don't believe, I don't believe that the Great Zhou Dynasty is over, go south, I want to go south..."?When Zhou Jingyu carried Fang Yuanxi onto the war horse, he jumped on his horse and continued to go south, but he saw the mighty Hun cavalry passing by the road, and at the same time he saw all the escaped refugees. As long as he saw beautiful women, these Huns were full of beasts, screams and screams echoed throughout the woods.
Let Zhou Jingyu, who was hiding behind, grit his teeth and endure it. Fang Yuanxi was so scared that his body shivered and penetrated Zhou Jingyu's arms... Soon Zhou Jingyu met refugees who fled from the capital to the north and got news from them that, just like before, the imperial capital moved south, and the capital had been stood by the Huns king. He wanted to be emperor in three days and rule the Central Plains and the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At the same time, the Huns army still headed south, hoping to completely destroy the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
?For example, the current emperor Zhou Yi followed the ministers and the 200,000 army of the King of Zhenbei who guarded the south, and together with the 500,000 army of the Huns who went south, they resisted the last gate to the south, Zhongnan City! If Zhongnan City is broken and the southern gate is broken, then the Great Zhou Dynasty will perish.
Fortunately, the 500,000 army of the King of Nanzhen was brave and good at fighting, and firmly resisted the Huns' army to the south.
?Or? Perhaps it was because they had been moving south from the north and occupied the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Central Plains in just over a dozen days, which also caused great losses and consumption by the Hun army.
?So? When he arrived in Zhongnan City, the combat power of the Xiongnu soldiers showed obvious fatigue. Finally, the King of the Xiongnu ordered the front to stop the conquest and prepared to stop for a while. After he proclaimed himself emperor in the capital and stabilize the Central Plains, he would then reorganize his troops to go south to attack and destroy the last dynasty of the Great Zhou.
Because of this, this also gave the Great Zhou Dynasty a chance to breathe, because in just over ten days, the Hun army came too quickly and did not give the army a chance to breathe, so most of the Great Zhou Dynasty was destroyed.
??Now there are only a dozen cities and people in the south, and even the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty is unstable.
Because the third prince, the fifth prince, the twelfth prince, etc. were all unwilling to be the eldest prince, Zhou Yi took the throne.
Because in the south, they chose to build a temporary capital in Lingnan City Palace, and there were constant open and secret struggles.
??This made Yu Feizhang, who ruled the King of Nanzhen, extremely dissatisfied. He complained to his subordinates in the conference room of his mansion: "These royal families are simply useless. The Great Zhou Dynasty is almost destroyed, and he is still fighting for the throne. I am so angry."
? "?King of Nanzhen, these royal families are unreliable. Now that the emperor Zhou Yi has just succeeded to the throne, his foundation is unstable. These princes are making trouble in secret again, and they may have committed regicide!"
A minister sighed.
?? "Yes..." Others sighed, and some people said, "It would be great if the Eighth Prince Zhou Jingyu could inherit the throne. With the Eighth Prince's great talent in literary and military affairs, if he did not die, he would be the one who saved me from the Great Zhou Dynasty."
? "? Unfortunately, the eighth prince followed General Wu Da to the north. The 300,000 army was killed overnight, and the eighth prince disappeared..." Nan Zhenwang was also very regretful, because the eighth prince Zhou Jingyu was still his nephew, and his sister was Zhou Jingyu's biological mother. He thought the eighth prince could inherit the throne, but such a change occurred.
This time, it was in a forest outside Beiyan City.
After getting the news from several waves of refugees and basically unanimous, Zhou Jingyu finally believed that he accepted that the imperial capital was moved south, the capital was occupied by the King of Huns, the entire north and the Central Plains were occupied, and the royal family of Great Zhou fled to the south, and the King of Nanzhen used Zhongnan City as the last gate to resist the Huns' army. There is no news yet.
??Fang Yuanxi, who was sitting next to him, handed the roasted jerky to the absent-minded Zhou Jingyu, knowing what he was thinking.
Zhou Jingyu came to his senses and then took a bite of the roasted dried meat. He had no intention at all and wanted to fly to the south to see if the Great Zhou Dynasty is still there.
? "?Your Highness, let's continue to go south tomorrow."
Fang Yuanxi said to him sign language.
Zhou??Jing Yu was stunned and stared at Fang Yuanxi, and he was silent.
Fang Yuanxi's pretty face turned red, and Zhou Jingyu saw the little deer bumping into her and lowered her head.
"??Yuan Xi, I plan to go south alone!"
After a moment, Zhou Jingyu said seriously with his face.
Fang Yuanxi's pretty face was stunned, turned his head and looked at Zhou Jingyu blankly, and suddenly felt lost in his heart.
? "?I don't know what the situation is in the south now. It's so dangerous along the way. Maybe we can't reach the south yet, and we were killed by the Huns halfway. So, I don't plan to take you with me. I will send you back to the small mountain village tomorrow."
Zhou Jingyu said seriously.
Because he was really worried that along the way, there were refugees and the bodies of the people who were killed by the Huns everywhere.
Therefore, Zhou Jingyu did not want Fang Yuanxi to go south with him to avoid accidents.
? "?I'm willing to be with Your Highness."
Fang??Yuan Xi's eyes were slightly red, and her hands trembled slightly because she didn't want to leave Zhou Jingyu.
"??Yuan Xi..." Zhou Jingyu grabbed her jade hand with his big hand, his eyes shining, and said sincerely: "I don't want to leave you either, but as the blood of the Great Zhou royal family, I can't watch the Great Zhou Dynasty be destroyed, so I must go south, but I can't take you with me. In this way, I will only harm you, do you understand?"
Fang Yuanxi's eyes were filled with tears, and he looked at Zhou Jingyu with sincere eyes. I don't know how long it took to nod. Zhou Jingyu hugged her, gently touched her little head and hair with both hands, and said, "Don't worry, Zhou Jingyu swears, I will definitely go back to find you."
Fang Yuanxi, who was leaning against the man's shoulder, nodded, and tears fell from his eyes... But in the sky.
? "?God, let's stop watching the god, go back to have tea..." Si Ming Zhenjun and Pluto looked at the face of Jiang Chen, the god beside him. It was so green. Well, his hair seemed to be green.
??The two of them were so anxious that they were afraid that Jiang Chen would go down, so they cut Zhou Jingyu's head down with one sword.
Suddenly, a gust of demonic wind blew, and Zhou Jingyu and Fang Yuanxi shivered before they let go, which made the woman shyly bow their heads. Zhou Jingyu felt embarrassed: "Tomorrow morning, I will send you back..." The next day, the two got up early, Zhou Jingyu took Fang Yuanxi back to the original road in the north. After two days of running, he returned to the small mountain village behind the snow forest again, which made Guan Xueyang excited. Unexpectedly, Sister Yuanxi could come back.
?The next day, Zhou Jingyu continued to go south alone on a war horse, and handed Fang Yuanxi to Huang Bo to take care of him.
?Although I was reluctant to leave, Zhou Jingyu's choice was right, and he could not let his beloved woman have any danger.
?Fang Yuanxi stood on the mountain and watched the figure riding a war horse gradually disappearing in the snow. She was empty inside, but she did not imprison Zhou Jingyu for leaving, but understood his decision...
