The Proud Prince and the Arrogant Princess - C361
During the reign of the late king, he would always chat with the Lord Jia, not concealing his fondness for Peng Xian at all. Multiple hints would be passed on to him.
Thus, when the matter of the testamentary edict came out, Lord Jia knew that it was fake. But at that time, the country was in a mess and the crown prince was exiled to another country due to his defeat. The Lord Jia had to give his all to support Peng Cheng. He hoped that after he ascended to the throne, he would be able to change his mind and focus on the national interest.
However, this Peng Cheng was like a rotten tree that could not be carved. He had only ascended the throne for a few years, yet he already favored Prime Minister Min Han. Seeing that the rivers and mountains laid down by the Old Kingdom King were about to fall into someone else’s hands, the Lord Jia had no choice but to step in to save this country.
He was the leader of the rebels. The king was too impotent and impotent. He contacted many of the old officials in the court and secretly sent people to bring the former crown prince over with the intention of creating a new king. At the same time, he had also secretly cultivated many of his own strength.
In addition, he also contacted various people and troops, hoping that they would be able to oppose the passed down monarch, the Minhan family, and the succession of the new monarch.
Jia Linnuo had brought his order badge with him and risked her life to persuade the generals from various places to support the new master. If he met a wise person, she would naturally agree with her. But if she met any stupid and loyal person or someone who had already joined the Minhan family, then she would be in great danger.
This time, her whereabouts were known to all, which was why the Minhan family sent people to kill her, causing her to fall off the cliff. However, she simply fell into the water and was saved later. Only then did she regain her life. It was only when they saw her that they were so surprised.
And Mu Ying was one of her trusted aides that she had taken back along the way.
After listening to Jia Linnuo’s words, Mu Ying had a whole new level of respect for her, and a sense of appreciation arose within him. She looked like he was only sixteen. He seemed like a playful, spoiled little girl. Who would have thought that behind his was actually a courageous and knowledgeable woman who dared to do as she pleased.
“Because this matter is of great concern and is of great concern to us. If someone noticed something like this, then all the preparations he had made would be for naught. So Father had to test you. ” Jia Linnuo said.
“I understand.” Mu Ying nodded.
“Since your wife was taken away by the Mingham family, we have a common enemy. Tomorrow, I will bring you to meet the people in the organization. Some of them know all about the Münhams, and we have some informants at the Münhams’, and you can ask them. Once we find out, we’ll try to rescue them. ”
“Okay, thank you.” Mu Ying said sincerely. The expression on his face was not as serious. Thinking that he would soon find out about Xue Moyun’s news, he even revealed a slight smile.
“You are even more handsome if you don’t have a cold appearance.” Jia Linnuo said infatuatedly.
“Uh, hur hur, right?” Mu Ying laughed awkwardly.
“Right.” Jia Linnuo nodded with certainty, and then muttered: “It would be great if I could be your wife.”
“What?” Mu Ying was doubtful, thinking that she had something important to say.
“It’s nothing. I’m asking you, since you’re not a local, where do you live now?”
“Oh, the inn is outside. There are also a few of my friends who are with me.” It was only then that Mu Ying remembered Wei Ming and the others.
“It’s not convenient to stay in an inn. Since you’ve already joined us, you can stay in my mansion from now on.” This way, we can discuss whatever’s wrong. ” Jia Linnuo warmly invited. That way, as long as she woke up in the future, she would be able to see Mu Ying.
“I’m afraid there’s a lot of interruption. It’s not convenient.” Mu Ying rejected him.
What’s so inconvenient about it? My house is so big and there are many empty rooms. I have the housekeeper create a small courtyard for you. It is quiet and peaceful with no one disturbing you.
“In that case, thank you very much.” Mu Ying cupped his hands.
When they returned to the inn, Wei Ming and the others were already anxiously waiting. Seeing that Mu Ying still had not come after such a long time, they couldn’t help but be a little worried.
“Young master, you’re here.” Wei Ming walked over.
“Right.” Mu Ying nodded, he entered the house and sat down, then asked: “Have you found any news?”
“Not yet.” The guards all shook their heads.
“No matter which house the Minhan family lives in, they are all heavily guarded, and hard to enter. It took me a lot of effort today to enter Minhan Changyang’s residence. But this was too big, it was hard to find any information in a short period of time. I caught a little person and forced him to ask. I also said that I did not hear the news of another girl being captured. ” Wei Ming said in disappointment.
“It seems like it is not enough with just the few of us. I have gained quite a lot today …” Mu Ying then told them everything that happened today.
“Seems like we can only hide our identities, sneak into them, and then use this Lord Jia and the powers behind his to find out where he is.” A guard said.
“Just like that, I can’t help but be drawn into the struggle of the comfort zone’s imperial court.” Wei Ming was worried.
“There’s a problem with the comfort barrier itself. If we were able to help the Anti-Rebel take down the Minhan family and support the new monarch to ascend the throne, the war between the comfort barrier and the West Cold might not be as intense. Perhaps the two countries will be able to cultivate anew as they did in the past. ” Mu Ying remained silent for a while, before he slowly said.
This time, they joined the Anti-Rebel not only to save Xue Moyun, but also to restore peace to the citizens at the borders of the West Cold.
“Your highness cherishes the world, and we vow to follow him until our deaths. We will listen to your arrangements.” Wei Ming and the others heard that Mu Ying had already planned for this and immediately expressed their willingness to follow him.
Very quickly, Mu Ying brought Wei Ming and the others to the Jia manor and introduced them to the Lord Jia. Considering that Mu Ying’s capabilities were outstanding, the Lord Jia gave one of the teams to Mu Ying to manage.
Mu Ying was an outstanding general to begin with, so it wouldn’t be difficult for him to lead his team. Very quickly, he received the team and reassembled the entire team. He personally trained, and his battle prowess was unbeatable.
Soon, this team stood out among the crowd of rebel soldiers and became one of the enemy’s fearless cavalry. Lord Jia also saw that Mu Ying’s identity was definitely not ordinary. With his exceptional military skills, he was at least a general of a country. These are all future matters. Let’s not talk about them for now.
The Prime Minister had already made arrangements for Xue Moyun to leave the residence for a few days. He said that he wanted her to write a letter asking for help to Mu Ying and the emperor first and ask them to send troops to save him. This was to test if Xue Moyun was really sincere and wanted to join the Min Han Family.
Being able to write a letter asking for help was something Xue Moyun could only wish for, but following that, Bai Zhang’s words made her put down the brush. Since the Prime Minister said that to ensure Xue Moyun’s safety, he gave her a fake address and told her to bring Mu Ying and the others over there.
Xue Moyun knew that if she were to write this letter, when Mu Ying sees it, she would very quickly burn with anxiety to save him. It was extremely dangerous. But if she didn’t, it would definitely arouse the Prime Minister’s suspicions.
After thinking about it for a moment, she personally went to see the Prime Minister and offered him a plan to dispel his wariness towards her.
She made it clear to the Prime Minister that she had been missing for so long that none of the Emperor’s men had come looking for her. Thus, she volunteered to assassinate the Emperor.
“But to let you go to the West Cold alone to assassinate the Emperor is too dangerous. I only have a granddaughter like you, and I don’t want you to take such a big risk. ” The Prime Minister said hypocritically.
Knowing that the Prime Minister still had some doubts about him, Xue Moyun proposed another plan. “In this war between the two nations, the comfort barrier has been damaged, but West Cold is also losing. He might as well send an envoy with the intention of seeking peace. And when I go with the envoy and take advantage of the trust the Emperor has in me, I can take this opportunity to assassinate him as well as Mu Ying. ”
Xue Moyun’s plan did not look bad. Firstly, she had an envoy monitoring her, so the Prime Minister could be at ease.
Secondly, he could eliminate the emperor and the prince without even using a single soldier. The prime minister had no choice but to be tempted.
Moreover, there was also a comfort barrier within the West Cold. As long as Xue Moyun did not go according to plan, they could think of ways to provoke the Emperor and Xue Moyun, and Xue Moyun would not get anything good out of it either.
If this matter was successful, they could take the opportunity to support Mu Lingfeng to ascend to the throne, and the West Cold would also be under their control. If it didn’t work, he would just lose an insignificant chess piece like Xue Moyun.
The Prime Minister glanced at Xue Moyun. Although he did not agree to it at the time, he stopped tapping his fingers on the table, showing that he was still very interested in Xue Moyun’s idea.
“No matter what, this matter is still a bit risky for you. Let’s talk about it after your uncle and I discuss it.” The Prime Minister said leisurely.
“Alright, then I’ll be waiting for external ancestor’s teachings for my granddaughter.” Xue Moyun withdrew.
On the way back, Xue Moyun walked slowly, but she was always thinking if his performance just now had any flaws, or if it would arouse the Prime Minister’s suspicions.
She had already thought of what the Prime Minister had just said. If he could return home this time, it would be very dangerous. Emissaries would monitor him, spies would discredit him, and even the emperor would suspect that his journey would be fraught with dangers.
However, he couldn’t care so much anymore. He could only return to the West Cold, that place that he was familiar with, and not become so isolated and helpless. Now that the child had been in her womb for almost three months, it soon began to show itself. At that time, if he was still imprisoned in this residence, it would not be a good thing for him and his child.
This was her and Mu Ying’s first child. He didn’t know how much time he had left in this world and when he would disappear. If he could leave a child in this world, it would be a dream. If he didn’t have his own life in the future, Mu Ying wouldn’t have to suffer so much.
Thinking to this point, Xue Moyun subconsciously wanted to touch her stomach, but she immediately stopped, afraid that the meticulous Bai Zhang would discover him.
After Xue Moyun left, the Prime Minister called Min Hanxiangru and Minhan Changyang’s father, Min Hanxiangbai, to ask their opinion on this matter.
