If he could settle these people down, it would ease his mind.
He turned around and took out a starbell, smiling at Er Yang. "Kou Lingxu sent a message."
Er Yang exchanged glances. He had just contacted the Duke of Guang.
As soon as they did, Kou Lingxu immediately asked, 'I heard that Master Qing has sent 1.5 billion troops to attack you?'
Miao Yi: 'I don't have 1.5 billion. That's just a rumor. Currently, there are 500 million guards attacking Ox King Planet. Hua Yitian's 300 million guards are on their way to reinforce us. There are still 400 million guards causing trouble within my borders.'
Miao Yi explained things so clearly so that the other party would know the general situation of the guards' forces. He and Master Qing were both ambushing each other. You ambushed me, I ambushed you, you set traps I ambushed you, you set traps I ambushed you. Both sides were doing everything they could. On the surface, they were using the rebellion as a pretense, but they were secretly gathering their forces. Outsiders wouldn't know what was going on. For people like Kou Lingxu and the Duke of Guang, they wouldn't act rashly if they didn't know the enemy's forces and didn't know if they could deal with them.
Kou Lingxu made a rough estimate. Even if there weren't 1.5 billion, there were at least 1.2 billion. Of which, 500 million were already charging towards Niu Youde's nest. Clearly, Lord Qing had gone there to launch a surprise attack. Otherwise, there was no way he wouldn't have been able to send 500 million troops into Niu Youde's nest without alerting anyone. He was basically trying to kill Niu Youde. He couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat for Miao Yi.
He was already thinking about the possibility of joining forces to reinforce Niu Youde, but the 500 million troops from the Pure Bliss Realm were giving him a headache.
Miao Yi: 'Resist? I won't attack unless I'm attacked, but if I'm attacked, I'll definitely retaliate. Since they're already here, how can I just let them leave? Qu Changtian's 500 million troops have already been surrounded by my 2 billion troops, while Hua Yitian's 300 million troops have been surrounded by Cheng Taize's 1.5 billion troops. I will definitely destroy these 800 million personal guards. What can the remaining 400 million do to me?
Kou Lingxu was shocked. 'Two billion troops? This was clearly premeditated! 1.5 billion troops? Why did Cheng Taize join in the fun? ' He hurriedly asked, 'You knew that Master Qing would ambush you?'
Miao Yi: With the Shadow Guards and the Primordial Army at the back, how could I not be on guard? It's fine if Master Qing doesn't make a move, but if he does, I'll cripple him! '
Kou Lingxu seemed a little angry. Why didn't you tell us earlier? Why did you act rashly?
Miao Yi: Do you need me? Right now, your Duke of Guangling only has a measly 500 million soldiers. If your army of 6 billion can't even take down 500 million soldiers, then in my opinion, you two can be considered to have reached the end of your reign as Princes.
Kou Lingxu: Don't forget that Master Qing still has 800 million guards! They are not just for show!
Miao Yi thought, 'My clan alone is holding back Master Qing's 1.2 billion troops. Master Qing's army won't think of anything else. They will definitely gather their strength and charge towards me. You all need to buy me some time. Make sure the Personal Guards within your borders are completely suppressed. Don't give me any more trouble. Once I'm done with the 1.2 billion Personal Guards, I will immediately gather my forces to face Master Qing's remaining 800 million troops! Since he wants to kill me, I won't do anything for him. I'd rather die in glory than live in dishonor. I will fight him to the death. I will not retreat, and there is no way out! '
Kou Lingxu: The Blissful Realm's army of 500 million troops has appeared in my territory.
Miao Yi: What is Teng Fei doing? Pressure him immediately. Force him to send troops to help! Once Master Qing's forces fall, do you think the 1.5 billion troops under the Buddhist Master will be a match for your combined forces? I don't think I need to explain this to you. If you stand back and do nothing, and I am defeated by Master Qing, he will immediately come after you. None of you will have an easy time then. That's all I have to say. As for whether you will send troops or sit back and do nothing, it's up to you. I won't force you!
Kou Lingxu: Niu Youde, oh Niu Youde. We've been dragged down by you this time.
From the way he said this, it was clear that he already knew what was going on. There was no way he could stay out of this.
Miao Yi: How can you say that you've been dragged down by me? Come to think of it, you should be thanking me. It's only because I was able to hold on. Otherwise, you can imagine what would have happened to you. I was the one who helped you. Why are you complaining when you're not thanking me?
After both sides ended their communication, Yang Zhaoqing reported, "Your Highness, Cheng Taize has arrived with his family."
Miao Yi replied, "Invite them in! Have the Princess Consort come out and entertain the guests. "
He personally walked out of the grand hall and stood on the steps outside the hall to welcome them.
Not long after, Cheng Taize was followed by a group of women and men. They were all his wives, concubines, and children. There were also a few generals at his side.
As Miao Yi walked down the steps, Cheng Taize immediately broke away from his entourage and rushed forward. The two of them cupped their fists and laughed heartily as they greeted each other, "Your Highness!"
Cheng Taize put on an apologetic look and said, "I was keeping an eye on Hua Yitian's battle. I hope Your Highness is magnanimous enough to forgive me for being late."
Miao Yi smiled and said, "The fact that King Cheng can come here with peace of mind means that the frontlines are progressing smoothly. I should be happy."
"Come. Pay your respects to the Ox Prince and the Princess Consort." Cheng Taize turned around and beckoned his family over.
The group of men and women quickly bowed and greeted, "Greetings, Your Highness. Greetings, Princess Consort."
Miao Yi raised his hand and gestured to Yun Zhiqiu with a nod.
Yun Zhiqiu understood and immediately smiled as she walked up to Cheng Taize's concubines, calling each other 'Big Sisters' intimately. After that, she invited the group of family members to the garden to have some tea.
As he watched his family members follow Yun Zhiqiu, Cheng Taize couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had basically mobilized all of his troops away from his side. In reality, he and his family members had already become hostages in Miao Yi's hands. This time, he even personally sent his family members to Miao Yi's doorstep. This was enough to show his sincerity.
With the bustling crowd gone, the only ones left were those who had business to attend to. Miao Yi said, "The battle outside is in full swing. I wonder if King Cheng would be willing to accompany me to watch and cheer?"
Cheng Taize replied with a serious expression, "That's exactly what I was thinking!"
And so, the group of men strode out of the manor and quickly flew towards the stars …
In the sky above the Heavenly Palace, the harem was in a state of panic. A large group of Imperial Guards were currently herding all of the concubines into a single location.
In the skies above the Li Palace, dragons and phoenixes flew in flocks, while a dense army was gathered outside.
Inside the grand hall, Lord Qing's expression was a little dark as he held the Star Bell in his hand. The Duke of Guang and Kou Lingxu had both contacted him directly.
It was already rare for them to contact him directly, and it was even rarer for them to contact him together.
Kou Lingxu and the Duke of Guang didn't have anything good to say. The Imperial Guards were already attacking their territory, so it would be strange if they had anything good to say. They were here to denounce him and demand an explanation.
Qing Zhu was confused, so he denied it immediately. He put away the Star Bell and yelled at Wu Qu, who was standing below him, "What is going on? Why are the guards of the western and northern armies attacking the territories of the western and northern armies? Who gave the order? "
It would be strange if Lord Qing wasn't angry. Niu Youde had been ruthlessly attacking his weak point, and he was already in a terrible predicament. He could already imagine that once his 1.2 billion Imperial Guards were suppressed by Niu Youde, they would see that Niu Youde's forces were greatly reduced, which would very likely incite the ambitions of the other clans. Provoking those clans at this time was no different from seeking death. It was like giving an excuse to attack to the other clans!
Shangguan Qing and the others were quite shocked. This was truly adding fuel to the fire!
Wu Qu was equally shocked. "This is impossible! There's no way they would give such an order! Could it be that those two clans are purposely finding an excuse to attack? "
Lord Qing pointed at him and scolded, "Then why don't you hurry up and verify it!"
Wu Qu quickly ordered for verification. In truth, there was no need for him to do so. The Western and Northern Armies wouldn't just sit there and not retaliate. They were already mobilizing their forces to encircle and suppress the troublemaking Imperial Guards. It would be difficult for such a large commotion to not alert the higher-ups of the Imperial Guards, so they naturally had to find out what was going on.
In the end, they discovered that there were more than a dozen groups of people stirring up trouble in the Western and Northern Armies. When the higher-ups asked what was going on, those dozen groups of people were basically all deputies replying, saying that the Domain Commander had received an order from the higher-ups to attack.
The higher-ups were naturally furious. Who would give such an order? They immediately looked for the commanding general who gave the order, but in the end, they couldn't even contact the commanding general. They had all disappeared, and no one knew where they went.
In a corner of the hall, Zhan Ruyi stood silently with Yin Shuang and Bai Xue.
The three of them had already been summoned out of the Cold Palace. It was rare to see Lord Qing so flustered and exasperated. Yin Shuang and Bai Xue were secretly shocked. Had Niu Youde already reached such a stage? Had he already reached a stage where he could force the Celestial Thearch to such a stage?
The three of them weren't clear about the exact situation, but after they were summoned, they were informed that the Southern Army's Heavenly King Niu Youde was rebelling!
An indescribable look appeared in Zhan Ruyi's eyes. That character who was similar to her in the past had grown step by step to where he was now, and he already had the qualifications to point his blade at the Celestial Thearch. With a wave of his hand, he could command hundreds of millions of people into battle. As for her, ever since she took off her armor and entered the palace, she had always been an undressed character …
After understanding the situation, Wu Qu reported, "Your Majesty, there is indeed such a thing. There are more than a dozen groups of people who went out of control …" He reported the details of the situation.
Lord Qing was furious. He pointed at him and scolded, "What the hell are you all doing? Do you think the selection of the generals is done with your eyes closed? "
Wu Qu's face was full of bitterness. "Your Majesty, it should be Niu Youde's doing. I have checked the resumes of those people and found that they all have a common point. Those people were all Niu Youde's former subordinates in the Imperial Guards. They were all survivors of the battle in the Youding Region where Niu Youde defeated a million elite soldiers."
Lord Qing was even more furious. "I remember that Niu Youde's former subordinates should not be limited to these people, right? Immediately send orders to all the relevant personnel to be arrested! "
Wu Qu nodded. "I have already sent people to carry out the orders."
The troops outside were still gathering. After waiting for a while, Wu Qu received a message from Xing Ling. His expression changed again. He didn't know what to say. In the end, he had no choice but to brace himself and report, "Your Majesty, we have only captured a few thousand people. A few thousand more have already escaped. Their families have all disappeared not long ago."
"Escaped? Disappeared? "Lord Qing was so angry that he laughed." Good! This is the Imperial Guards that you have given me. How can they come and go as they please? "
At this time, Shangguan Qing quickly walked into the hall and reported to Lord Qing. "Your Majesty, Sister Lu refuses to move. She said that she is not going anywhere."
Lord Qing said angrily, "What does she want to do?"
Shangguan Qing said, "She is already here. She said that she wants to see Your Majesty."
Lord Qing waved his hand in annoyance.
Soon, Grandma Lu appeared outside the hall with her cane. She walked in slowly.
