The Proud Prince and the Arrogant Princess - C385
In the secret base at the back of the mountain.
Mu Ying had followed Lord Jia and the others, leading them to prepare everything. Right now, war had already begun in various places. Lord Jia also formally requested for the Emperor to return home.
Although he was returning home, he had truly begun to gather the Anti-Rebel from all over the place. When the time came, he would attack the middle of the desert.
“Everything is ready, please return to Crown Prince Peng Xian.” The Lord Jia said.
“Ever since Prince Peng Xian lost the fight for the throne, he had been exiled to Northern Yan Country. Although it was called exile, it was actually under Min Hanbatian’s secret orders to have him locked up for a long time. Therefore, the most important thing to do now is to save him. ”
Min Hanbatian knew that we were going to fetch the previous crown prince and that we would send assassins all the way there. Thus, other than taking the crown prince back, we had to escort the crown prince until he safely ascended the throne. Who’s willing to go? ” Lord Jia asked.
At this moment, everyone hesitated for a moment before raising their hands, “I’ll go, I’ll go!”
Lord Jia looked at everyone and was very pleased. He extended a hand to stop everyone, “All of you are truly intelligent people who are loyal to the king. “But I already have a candidate in mind.”
The Lord Jia said as he walked to Mu Ying, “This mission is extremely important. I will lead everyone to attack the Mo Clan.
The Lord Jia paused for a moment, then continued: “Mu Ying is an expert in martial arts, talented, careful, so I decided that he is the best candidate.”
When everyone heard this, they all agreed. During the time that Mu Ying had led everyone here, everyone had respected and respected him, and believed in his abilities even more.
“In that case, I’ll take a walk.” Mu Ying nodded. Because he remembered Xue Moyun’s warning, that she must support the Anti-Rebel, push down the Minhan family, and save her.
“Okay, here is the badge. I’ll give you a third of my army so that you will be absolutely safe on your journey.” Lord Jia turned around and picked up an order badge, and handed it over to Mu Ying.
“Alright, then Mu Ying will complete his mission.” Seeing how much Lord Jia trusted him, Mu Ying was extremely touched.
“Bad news, bad news…” Just as Mu Ying was about to leave, Wei Ming suddenly ran in.
“What happened?” Seeing Wei Ming flustered, Mu Ying anxiously asked.
“My lord, when I was on the street, I saw Min Han’s family post a letter asking for help. They said that Min Han’s wife had been in a terrible situation and told you to go and save her.” Wei Ming said, unable to take it in for a long time.
“What!” Mu Ying stood up, holding his treasure sword, he rushed forward.
“Wait a moment.” At this time, the Lord Jia suddenly stopped Mu Ying.
“I’m sorry Lord Jia, I can’t wish you to save the crown prince anymore. My wife is in danger, and I’m going to save her. ” With that, Mu Ying returned the order badge back into Lord Jia’s hands.
“Hey, take this.” The Lord Jia did not accept the order badge, but said to Mu Ying: “Since your wife is in trouble, since you are one of us, we have the responsibility to save your wife. If you don’t take this amount of manpower, it will be too dangerous for you to fight alone. Take it, Your Highness. ” Lord Jia suddenly whispered.
Hearing Lord Jia’s words, Mu Ying looked up at him in shock. Lord Jia smiled but did not speak, and only nodded. So he had known all this long ago.
Ever since Mu Ying had joined the Anti-Rebel and displayed his astounding military skills, he knew that this man was not simple. Suspicion arose regarding Mu Ying’s identity. After sending people to investigate, they found out that he was the famous General of conquest that caused all the countries to tremble in fear.
Mu Ying understood that the Lord Jia had long known of his identity, but he still trusted himself this way. Mu Ying was extremely grateful and thanked him profusely: “I, Mu Ying, will definitely repay you for your kindness in the future.”
“Yes, it’s just that this Min Hanbatian is always cunning and insidious. I advise you not to be impulsive, and to investigate carefully first. ”
The Lord Jia advised.
It was because he understood his opponent too well.
Hearing Lord Jia’s persuasion, Mu Ying slowly calmed down. She thought of the reminder Xue Moyun had given her before, and also firmly decided to not believe in any news, and not go save himself. Now that there was such a letter asking for help, it really made people suspicious.
Mu Ying thought about it, and decided to investigate first.
Watching Mu Ying leave, the Lord Jia revealed a smile. Since he had sold a favor to Mu Ying this time, it would be much easier for him to repair the relationship between the masturbating barrier and the West Cold in the future.
Furthermore, this Mu Ying was indeed a prodigy. With his help, there was no need to worry about not being able to move this Minhan family.
Mu Ying made up his face with Wei Ming and sneaked in in front of the crowd.
He carefully read the letter, it was indeed Xue Moyun’s handwriting, and was not angry at all, as he tightly clenched his fists. Thus, Wei Ming stopped his hand and let him continue watching.
The more he read, the more he felt that something was amiss. Although this was personally written by Xue Moyun, who said that she was being mistreated and asked his family for help, but the way she addressed them seemed to be amiss. Although the signature at the end was extremely similar, it was definitely not written by Xue Moyun herself.
Because Xue Moyun came from another world, she wrote her name using a brush.
After reading the signature on the letter, Mu Ying turned around, and his expression relaxed a lot.
Looks like this was indeed a move by Min Hanbatian. Unfortunately, Mu Ying would not go.
Mu Ying returned and quickly led the troops to rescue the former crown prince. What Min Hanbatian did not know was that he had his men keep watch, waiting for Mu Ying to fall into their trap.
After a few days, he finally reacted and received a message from a spy. He then found out that Mu Ying had brought a soldier to save the crown prince. He quickly gave the order to stop her, but it was already too late.
On the table embroidered with golden threads of auspicious cloud were piles of official documents. The Emperor held a brush in his right hand and drew on it unhurriedly. Qin, who was serving beside him, had his eyebrows knit as he counted the hours quietly.
“This crown prince is really disappointing me.” The person on the chair sighed, the expression on his face was hard to discern, the vermilion pen was slowly placed down.
“Your majesty?” Eunuch Qin carefully touched the buddhist dust in his bosom.
“He is our son, the future heir to the West Cold. He is actually helping an outsider speak up.” Mu Lingfeng said that the crown prince had lost his soul to that fox like man. His eyebrows were sharp and cold. The displeasure in his eyes was getting stronger.
“Your Majesty …” Eunuch Qin opened his mouth hesitantly.
“Report!”
Eunuch Qin wanted to say more, but after hearing a message from a young eunuch at the door, he shut his mouth resentfully and returned to his seat.
“Third Prince requests an audience!”
“Yes.” Mu Mu Zheng calmly closed the imperial report he was reading and pushed it to the side.
“This son greets royal father.” Mu Lingfeng bowed deeply to the emperor, a sinister look flashing past his eyes before disappearing in the blink of an eye. When he raised his head again, there was not a single flaw in the warm smile on his face.
“What business do you have with me?” Mu Mu Zheng who was casually resting his hand on the dragon throne unconsciously turned the jade thumb ring, and his gaze swept past his eyes.
“It’s like this, your son, seeing that your father has been tired for the past few days, I hereby send you the lotus seed soup.” Seeing that Mu Zheng did not object, Mu Lingfeng waved his hand, allowing the eunuch behind him to place the blue and white porcelain bowl to the Eunuch Qin.
“You’re being considerate.” At this moment, Mu Zheng was infuriated because of the crown prince’s matter.
The standard white porcelain spoon was matched with a small pink petal that had been meticulously placed in the cup. It gave off a feeling of exquisite care.
“This lotus seed soup was specially harvested by this son from an extremely cold place. It was refined and has a very different flavor from the palace.” Mu Lingfeng tried to curry favor with them.
“That is indeed the case. Third Bro, you’re being considerate. ” Mu Zheng’s complexion had slightly improved.
Mu Lingfeng smiled faintly, and a sigh could be heard from within, “royal father is so happy, we are also very happy, especially the crown prince, he has always set you as his role model. He wants to be the best in everything he does.”
Whether he did it on purpose or not, it just so happened that during this kind of warm and harmonious moment, Mu Lingfeng mentioned the person that the Emperor cared about the most.
Eunuch Qin saw the emperor’s expression and then looked at Mu Lingfeng. He had already guessed in his heart why he said this. He wasn’t sending them off to cool down, but rather, he was deliberately causing trouble for the Emperor.
Compared to the Mu Zhuoshi who had continuously written books to anger the Emperor, Mu Lingfeng seemed to be more thoughtful and sensible when he compared the two at this time.
“Yes, the Crown Prince has been a bit out of control this time.” When he heard that I had captured Mu Ying and Xue Moyun, he had even added a few lines in succession to beg us to retract our orders! ” Mu Zheng’s face sunk even deeper, as if he had thought of something. He lost interest in the soup in the bowl and put down the spoon.
“Royal brother is the same. A few days ago, I saw him mumbling Xue Moyun’s name. The worry in his eyes made people sigh.”
Mu Lingfeng hypocritically sighed, and sneakily glanced at Mu Zheng.
Seeing that Mu Zheng did not say anything, Mu Lingfeng continued: “This Xue Moyun is on good terms with my royal brother, it is only right for him to speak up for her. Only, he knew that this Xue Moyun was a traitor … The crown prince is so concerned about him, I wonder if he is really unaware of this or if he is just pretending. ”
Mu Lingfeng stopped as he said this.
When Mu Zheng heard this, he immediately became sullen and angry, he fiercely put down the bowl and did not say a word.
Mu Lingfeng’s meaning was extremely clear. Xue Moyun had such a good relationship with the crown prince, she was the traitor, so who knows if the crown prince would already know. Perhaps … There was one more copy of him.
The Eunuch Qin stopped and secretly held the horsetail whisk in his hands tightly. This Mu Lingfeng was too vicious, the crown prince had done a great service previously, and through means, he wanted the crown prince to not reward him. It had only been a few days and it was already starting to sow discord, wanting to frame the Crown Prince.
The Eunuch Qin, who was serving beside him, sighed. Indeed, he was not someone easy to deal with.
It looked like he had to hurry and inform the empress about their plans.
