Chapter 529: Farewell Banquet, Desperate Despair 3, Conscious Entanglement 1
"Come on, invite the wives and children of all the nobles to come out and have a feast together. Today, our Tianhao Palace will be lively and festive!"
Xiao Changzi raised his voice:
"Yes, master."
In an instant, all 30 people under Xueer came up.
The difference is that behind them are the wives and children of all the civil and military officials present in the court. Needless to say, although it is apparently a banquet, even an idiot can understand the meaning behind it!
Princess Snow is using their families to threaten them, that's what she means by "burning the boats"!
Everyone understood, and some ministers, unable to sit still, stood up with anxious looks on their faces.
Xue'er naturally did not miss the minister who stood up and seemed very anxious:
"Lord Li, are you so anxious to toast the Emperor with your wife? Come on, Lord Li is a veteran of the Second Dynasty. I, Lord Li, and I will toast the Emperor together and wish him a speedy victory over the enemy."
Ling Aotian was shocked when he saw Xue'er wanted to drink, even though she was eight months pregnant!
This wine is not to be touched, and he immediately stood up:
"Xue'er, this wine..."
"It's nothing, just tea."
While Xue'er was talking, she stroked her round belly with a smile. Xue'er was happy at this moment, because Ling Aotian could see her smile clearly.
Lord Li is not an idiot. His wife and children are all here, and this Princess Xue is in his hands!
Even if he wanted to find a way to retreat, nothing could be done now. It seemed that he had no choice but to fight Nangong Feixue and the others with all his might.
Then he frowned and shouted loudly:
"Your Majesty, I respect you. Your Majesty will surely defeat the enemy. I, this old minister, swear to follow you till death."
After finishing the bowl of wine, he drank it all as a gesture of respect, leaving not a drop behind.
"it is good!"
Ling Aotian could see that everyone in the hall had their own thoughts just now!
At this moment, my son has already won the support of all the ministers~
haha~
Ling Aotian was very happy, Xue'er was really his treasure.
The foreign enemy has attacked the city, and what we fear most now is the people’s hearts!
If people's hearts are not stable, it will only speed up the destruction of the country. But if everyone is united and puts all their efforts into it, it is still uncertain who will win!
After all, only this desperate move can produce a miracle!
The fire of hope in Ling Aotian's heart burned again at this moment!
Yes!
He hoped for a miracle to happen, he shouldn't be discouraged now!
From the moment he returned to the palace, half of Ling Aotian's heart had been taken away, and he felt a little empty. But now, that empty half of his heart has been filled by Xue'er.
Ling Aotian will never admit defeat until the last moment!
no way!
In an instant, all the civil and military officials in the hall raised their glasses and shouted:
"Our dynasty will surely win. God bless Tianhao and God bless His Majesty!"
"Good! Good! Fill up the glasses. Today, I and all my beloved ministers will not leave until we are drunk!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty..."
For a moment, all the ministers were excited!
Excited!
Everyone seemed to be treating this meal as their last.
Since there is no way out for everyone, all the ideas they had prepared before are now useless.
Whatever your thoughts are, what's the point if you don't have your family by your side?
So everyone, whose hearts were dead, was now united, with only one thought in mind: to repel the enemy.
The banquet lasted until late at night, and the families of the ministers were all well taken care of by Empress Xue in the harem.
