Lou Lan Curse: Tyrant, Love Me Only - C267
“Reporting to the king, the Azure Dragon Commander has brought Elder Mu Yue over.” The news began to spread one by one.
“Really? Where is he?” Helian Lie put down the letter and stood up. It was the time when Elder Mu Yue was most needed.
“We’re already outside the door.” The soldier said.
Helian Shan personally went out to welcome them. With Elder Mu Yue present, they would definitely obtain complete victory in tomorrow’s battle.
In the carriage, Mu Yue got off with the help of the green dragon. The green dragon had arrived at the Everlasting Mountain that night, and rushed over early the next morning. With an old man like her around, their pace was rather slow, and they only arrived at Red Mountain City after a long time.
Helian Shan personally coming out to greet her could be considered to have given face to Elder Mu Yue.
“This old one greets the king.” Mu Yue bowed to him while leaning on her walking stick.
“No need for formalities, please come in Elder Mu Yue.” Helian Lie had always respected her.
Inside the room, Helian Jue showed the written challenge to Elder Mu Yue, hoping that she would give Elder Mu Yue some pointers.
“I wonder if Elder Mu Yue has any suggestions for me after reading this Battle Book?” Helian Shan waited for her answer.
Mu Yue took a sip of her tea unhurriedly before giving out her suggestion, “Since the King is able to have the Azure Dragon personally go to the Everlasting Mountain to pick me up, this means that there must be someone powerful among the enemy. Along the way, I also asked the Azure Dragon about the situation of Red Mountain City and found out that the enemy attacked the city twice before.
“What the hell is going on in their gourd?” No matter how He Lian thought about it, he couldn’t understand what they wanted to do.
“Prince, don’t be in such a hurry. Allow this old man to explain slowly.” Ever since the great change had taken place in the palace, Mu Yue had always been cautious about everything, especially with that woman.
Helian Shan sat on the main seat without making a sound. He really wanted to hear Elder Mu Yue’s analysis and countermeasures.
“The northwest side has already been wiped out by General Yuwen. I’m sure that Black Wood Zana must have escaped by water back to Sky Harmony Kingdom and then came to Red Mountain City. I’m sure that she’s in the enemy’s camp right now and that the war between the two armies at Falling Phoenix Slope is most likely that woman’s idea!” Once the Azure Dragon arrived at the Everlasting Mountain, Mu Yue had already calculated it.
“That’s right. I just know that the witch must have escaped, so I immediately ordered the green dragon to pick you up. Just in case, if that woman truly used some strange technique, we wouldn’t be able to defend against her.” Fortunately, Helian Lie had an opinion and invited Elder Mu Yue.
“That’s not the point. The point is, what kind of ambush did they set at Fallen Phoenix Slope? According to Xing Ao Tian, if he wasn’t completely confident then he wouldn’t have dared to send someone to deliver a written challenge. That’s why he has Black Wood Zana behind him to advise him! ” Mu Yue was certain that the woman was capable of doing all sorts of vicious things. This battle was a must, and if they did not make some preparations in advance, Lou Lan’s army might very well be annihilated.
He stood up decisively and said to Helian Lie and Mu Yue, “The women of the Heimu clan usually deal with the foreign enemies by using these despicable and vicious methods. They do things in the enemy’s drinking water everyday, driving a large number of poisonous bugs to the enemy’s camp, and also poisonous smoke. I heard that this poisonous smoke is very strong and you can’t see even the slightest bit of it.
“It seems that Your Highness is quite knowledgeable about the Black Wood Family’s methods. Once you smell this poison, your entire body would collapse powerlessly at the start, and then you would convulse and die from spasms.” However, although this poisonous smoke is very strong, the method to remove it is also very simple. All you need to do is take a sip of ‘vinegar’ and rest for a while. ” Mu Yue knew Black Wood like the back of her hand. This time, she can’t even think of using those despicable methods to deal with our soldiers.
“Then, what method will Black Wood Zana use to deal with us?” He asked.
Mu Yue thought for a moment, nodded her head, and then continued to answer his question, “Tomorrow’s battle is in the middle of the day, so it is impossible for her to drive the poisonous creatures to come here. Even if it is at night, with us closing the city gates, the poisonous creatures will be very difficult to enter, and even if we are lucky enough to get in, we will definitely be discovered by our city guards. The second is to poison the water source. The moat outside the city has nothing to do with the drinking water inside the city, so on this point, she is unable to gain any advantage at all, the only way is for her to send a written challenge for all the main forces to leave the city and head for Falling Phoenix Slope. After that, she would use poison to poison all of the army out of the city and kill them all on the plains.
Mu Yue’s analysis was very reasonable. Helian Lie sat on the throne, nodding his head repeatedly. It seemed that Xing Ao Tian’s plan this time had gone wrong!
“How should we defend ourselves?” Helian Jue was still the most concerned about this issue.
“Don’t worry, let the soldiers be jealous. Tomorrow, make some food with vinegar as the main ingredient and let the generals have a good meal. If Black Wood Zana really used poison smoke, our soldiers would have vinegar inside their bodies, but once we discovered that something was wrong and smelled the fragrance, we would immediately use vinegar on ourselves and wet a cloth to cover our mouths and noses, and then we would be fine.” Mu Yue told them everything she knew.
Actually, detoxification and prevention methods were very simple. It was just that no one could have imagined that such a highly toxic poison would be detoxified by ‘vinegar’!
“Alright, everything will be done as Elder Mu Yue said. Tomorrow, we will have the cooks use vinegar as the main ingredient and cook it for the soldiers in the camp.” Helian Shan’s eyes were filled with strength. In tomorrow’s match, he would definitely beat Xing Ao until nothing was left of him.
“As per the decree, your servant will send someone to carry it out right away.” If everyone was going to be covered with vinegar, there was simply not enough. He still had to send people to the city to collect more.
After Helian Feng left, the only people left in the hall were Helian Zhang, Mu Yue, and the Azure Dragon that had always protected Helian Shan by his side. However, Helian Shan gave him a look, and the Azure Dragon tactfully left.
When Mu Yue saw that the king had sent away the green dragon, she guessed that he must have something to say to her alone, right?
“Elder Mu Yue, how is Cen Xue on Everlasting Mountain?” In private, Helian Shan opened his mouth to ask Cen Xue a question.
“The queen’s body is well preserved, rest assured, your majesty.” Mu Yue knew he would ask this.
Helian Lie looked at Elder Mu Yue’s calm face, which was full of love. He stood up and took a few steps forward with his hands behind his back, as if he was hesitating about something.
Mu Yue understood his every word and action very well. His current expression meant that he wanted to ask her something, but didn’t know if he should change his mind.
“Your Majesty, do you have something on your mind? Or do you have something you want to say to this old one? ” Since he saw through the king’s thoughts, Mu Yue took the initiative to ask him.
Helian Zhang looked at Elder Mu Yue; he could not hide from her eyes every time.
“Gu, there are indeed some questions I would like to ask you. It concerns the phoenix.” Helian Shan asked tentatively.
“Phoenix? What’s wrong with her? Why didn’t I see her? You didn’t even see Qing Song and Bai Lu? ” Mu Yue thought of the three of them. Why didn’t she see any of them?
“They’re fine, maybe they went out. Gu Yong felt that she was a little strange. The feeling she gave off was very familiar, so he reckoned that Cen Xue’s spirit might have possessed the body of the phoenix. ” Helian Shan spoke out the words in his heart. Although these words were not realistic, he still thought so in his heart.
“Your Majesty, are you joking with this old body?” Mu Yue was stunned. Her expression seemed unusual at that moment, but it was quickly covered up by her.
However, her abnormal behavior just now had completely entered Helian Shan’s eyes. It seemed that there was something wrong with it?
“Is that so? Does Elder Mu Yue think so? ” Helian Shan looked at her seriously, hoping to find some clues from her.
He did not think that there would be so many coincidences. It was not like he had never seen a phoenix before, as the phoenix in the past was not the one he saw now, but her personality and expression were far inferior to Cen Xue’s. There were also the dishes from last night.
“Your Majesty, soul possession is too absurd. Even if there is, why wouldn’t the Queen recognize you if she truly possessed the body of the Phoenix?” Mu Yue asked.
Helian Shan sighed, not knowing what to do next. However, he would definitely not let this matter rest.
After chatting for a while, the green dragon brought Elder Mu Yue to her room to rest. Helian Zhang was deeply concerned about this matter and was not at all at ease. He had to understand this matter!
In the barracks, Helian Jue gave the order. The chefs were busy preparing the food for tomorrow, the sweet and sour elbows, the gruel meat, and all the other dishes were prepared for the big guys to eat.
In the inn, Cen Xue told him everything that had happened after Tengger left. Only then did she understand what had happened. However, seeing her again, he was truly happy and excited.
“Cen Xue, promise me that you’ll protect yourself well from now on.” Dangla held her hand, and since she was all right, he did not want to stay any longer. Yesterday, looking at Helian Shan’s face, he knew that he was not welcome here and decided to set out for Tewa tomorrow morning.
“Don’t worry. In forty-nine days, I will return to my original body. After that, I will return to the palace and take care of my two children.” Cen Xue nodded. Right now, she only wanted to safely raise her two children.
“Alright, in that case, I am relieved.” Tengger looked at this unfamiliar face in front of him. Even though it wasn’t her on the surface, but in this body, was still Cen Xue whom he understood.
“I’ll send you off tomorrow.” Cen Xue knew that he was leaving and even though she was reluctant, she still had to part ways with him.
“No need. As long as you are alive, we will have a chance to meet in the future.” When Tengger heard that she wanted to send him off, he was very happy. At least for now, in Cen Xue’s heart, he had already remembered his existence.
Cen Xue nodded her head, her eyes filled with tears of excitement. “Be careful on the road …”
“Mm …”
