Red Tiger Kingdom, Zuo Xiangfu.
A man in a black cloak led the waiter into the study.
Seeing the person coming, Prime Minister Zuo immediately stood up to greet him, "General Mu, I'm finally here. I've been waiting for me for a long time."
Hearing this, Mu Haoda lifted the cloak above his head, crossed his legs towards the left prime minister and said, "See the left prime minister."
Seeing this, Prime Minister Zuo curled his lips and said, "General Mu, there is no need to be polite, please come in quickly." Prime Minister Zuo said, making a sign of invitation, and the two of them entered the study together.
When the other adults in the study saw the two people coming in, they all stood up in time, crossed their legs to Mu Haoda and said, "General Mu is polite."
Seeing the three ministers in the study, Mu Haoda was stunned, and then looked at the left prime minister beside him.
Looking at Mu Haoda's slightly doubtful eyes, Prime Minister Zuo said firmly, "General Mu, don't worry, those adults are as loyal to the emperor as the old man, and they have absolutely no second thoughts."
Looking at Zuo Xiang's firm eyes, Mu Haoda nodded, then turned to the three adults and said apologetically, "My lords, please don't blame me. This matter is so important that I will act with caution."
The three adults all nodded when they heard this, expressing their understanding.
"General Mu has thought carefully. These are extraordinary times and we should indeed act with caution."
That time, the four masters of Ye Yi who were invited by the left prime minister for a secret talk, except Mu Haoda, the other three were Fu Tai Fu Zhou Liangqi, Dali Temple Minister Jiao Yongnian, and Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment Liu Hongwen. The one who kept silent was Zheng Fu Liu Hongwen Liu. .
Seeing the somewhat restrained expressions of the adults, the Prime Minister Zuo frowned and said, "Masters, please leave. Time is running out and we need to be serious about business."
Several other people nodded after hearing this and walked away together.
As soon as they walked east, Liu Hongwen couldn't help but ask, "The second prince is about to ascend the throne. Does General Mu really want to rush to Shengjing to quell the chaos?"
After hearing this, everyone else looked at Mu Haoda, waiting for his answer.
Mu Haoda smiled softly when he heard this, "Since I have accepted the imperial edict from the East, I naturally don't ask to go."
Seeing the chuckle on Mu Haoda's lips, the Prime Minister's eyes flickered, "General Mu's acceptance of the imperial edict of the East is not just as simple as quelling the chaos, right?"
Hearing this, Mu Haoda chuckled again, "He who knows others is the Prime Minister of the Left."
Seeing the two people cherishing each other, everyone was confused. Why didn't they go to Shengjing to quell the chaos
After receiving the doubtful looks from everyone, Mu Haoda put away his chuckle and said solemnly, "There is a war in the border area and the people are suffering from the war. Going to Shengjing to quell the chaos is not one of the reasons, but I don't deny the initiative." Ask for the reason. Mingyue Zuoxiang and Mr. Zhou also said in the court that their top priority is not to start a war with Qinglong Suzaku, but to find out the reason why Qinglong Suzaku suddenly sent troops to the Red Tiger."
If they really wanted to start a war, with the strength of their red tigers, they would not be able to resist the two countries of Qinglong and Suzaku, not to mention the Xuanwu involved.
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Zuo gave Lord Zhou a wrong look, then turned to Mu Haoda and said, "General Mu, do you want to go to Shengjing to find out the truth of the matter?"
Mu Haoda nodded when he heard this and said, "No, now that the second prince controls the government, the capital is almost closed. Let alone finding out the truth, it would be very difficult to send a letter out. It would be very difficult to leave the capital and stay away." Only with the second prince’s control can we have a chance to find out the truth.”
Everyone nodded silently after hearing this. The situation in the capital was indeed not optimistic. Almost everyone in the court belonged to the second prince. Even if there were many who were not complicit, they did not dare to stand up and contradict the second prince at that time. Just based on how few of them they There is no way he can resist the second prince.
Seeing everyone nodding, Mu Haoda added, "When he arrives in Shengjing, he wants to meet Emperor Yidong Qinglong or their general in person and ask for the reason."
Time is running out, is that the fastest and most effective way? If Emperor Qinglong can be seen, he would like to ask about the current situation of Prince Zhan and Princess Zhan. The second prince is about to ascend the throne. He must find Prince Zhan, otherwise he will not be able to find out. He could not prevent the second prince from ascending the throne.
Master Zhou heard a flash of surprise in his eyes, "Meet Emperor Qinglong? Will that be dangerous?"
Others also looked worried when they heard this. Qinglong and Red Tiger were at war. If they went to see Emperor Qinglong at that time, wouldn't they be trapped in a trap
Seeing everyone's expressions of worry, Mu Haoda raised the corners of his lips slightly and said in relief, "Don't worry, adults. The old Emperor Qinglong has been to Red Tiger before, and Prince Zhan sent him to escort his old man. He doesn't seem to be unreasonable." people, and he felt that Zhuque and Qinglong did not really want to go to war with them. If they really wanted to go to war, Suzaku would never have stayed outside Quzhou City until tomorrow, and Qinglong would not have sent 300,000 troops. Still lingering in Shengjing."
Everyone nodded suddenly when they heard this. It was indeed true. Although they were all civil servants, they did not understand the strength of the troops at the border. There were 150,000 troops at the Shengjing border. If Qinglong really wanted to defeat it, Their Shengjing, whether it was an easy task, would never have been lingering in Shengjing until now.
Zuo Xiang pondered for a moment, looked at Mu Haoda with a sincere face and said, "Then I'll be careful when I go there."
Mu Haoda's eyes flashed when he heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at everyone and said, "He will definitely find out the truth as soon as possible and rush back as soon as possible. I will bother you all with the matter in the capital."
Everyone nodded when they heard this.
"General Mu, feel free to go, they are in the capital."
"If there is any movement in the capital, they will definitely find a way to send a message to me."
Mu Haoda nodded when he heard this, and then took out a military talisman from his arms and handed it to the Zuo Prime Minister, "That is the military talisman of the Imperial Guards in the capital. If there is anything going on in the capital, the Zuo Prime Minister can mobilize it."
"Okay." Zuo Xiang took the military talisman and carefully hid it in his arms.
Mu Haoda thought for a while and then took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to the Zuo Prime Minister, "What about his leg letter? If the situation is critical, the Zuo Prime Minister can take the leg letter and go to Wuyangpo on the outskirts of the capital to find him. Luo Fu, my lieutenant general, will send troops to support me."
In order to prevent sudden changes in the capital, he would take away 150,000 of the 200,000 troops, and he would leave a large army of 50,000 on the outskirts of the capital in case of emergencies.
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Zuo had a flash of appreciation in his eyes. He took the letter from Mu Haoda's lap and hid it carefully.
"It's getting late, he should leave." Mu Haoda said, standing up and crossing his legs in front of everyone, "My lords, they will meet again in the next month."
When everyone heard this, they all crossed their legs and said, "General Mu, be careful all the way."
Mu Haoda nodded upon hearing this, put on his cloak again, turned around and walked out.
Prime Minister Zuo looked at Mu Haoda's back with eyes flashing.
Liu Hongwen looked at Mu Haoda who disappeared around the corner and said with emotion, "That Mu Haoda is not simple, Prince Zhan has a good eye."
After hearing this, Prime Minister Zuo came to his senses and nodded, "Yes, Prince Zhan is very good at selecting people. That Mu Haoda will definitely be a good minister and general in the future."
Among the three princes of the emperor, the eldest prince is simple-minded and has no courage or strategy. The second prince is not brave and resourceful. He is too insidious to criticize others. Prince Zhan is not only talented in literature and military, but also brave and resourceful. He cares about the people, and what he pursues most is the most popular. Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. It is difficult to pass the throne to Prince Zhan intentionally. Maybe he has already seen through the nature of the three princes.
In the imperial study room of the Red Tiger Palace, Xuanyuan Hao and Zhuge Weiming also discussed a cooperation plan.
"As for your sincerity, Xuanwu will retreat within three days. The prince must not forget to agree to my king's conditions."
Xuanyuan Hao's brows relaxed when he heard this, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "Shenran, I will never break my promise." "
Zhuge Weiming nodded when he heard the words, stood up and said, "Okay, I will go to Youzhou then."
Upon seeing this, Xuanyuan Hao stood up and said, "This prince will send someone to take me there."
Hearing this, Zhuge Weiming's face flashed with confidence, he raised his eyebrows and said, "No, I can go to my Red Tiger Palace alone. Am I afraid that I won't be able to reach Youzhou?"
When Xuanyuan Hao heard this, a glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly as he said, "No, the prince is worrying too much. The regent has gone away and won't send you off."
Before Xuanyuan Hao could finish speaking, Zhuge Weiming flashed and disappeared into the imperial study.
Looking at the place where Zhuge Weiming suddenly disappeared, Xuanyuan Hao frowned. Why did Zhuge Weiming's cultivation become so high
Early in the morning of the next month, Duan Muxi and Xuanyuan Mo arrived in the Demon Realm.
Duan Muxi looked at the red and black Demon Palace with wonder, wondering whether the small flames burning everywhere were real or an illusion.
Duan Muxi thought about it and stretched out his legs to reach into the pile of brightly burning flames in front of him. Maybe her gesture didn't touch the flame and was caught by Xuanyuan Mo.
"Madam, don't play with fire." It was clear that the words were meant to be a warning, but it was hard to tell whether they came from Xuanyuan Mo's mouth, but they were full of doting.
Hearing this, the corners of Duan Muxi's lips curled up slightly, "It's okay, he has fire spiritual roots, and those fires can't hurt him."
Looking at Duan Muxi whose lips were slightly raised, Xuanyuan Mo frowned slightly, "Madam, please don't underestimate those fires. The fires in the Demon Palace are not the Nine Heavens Demon Fire. I am not a god now. If I don't touch it, I will be at ease." If the red bones are exposed, they will turn into ashes.”
After listening to those first eight words, Duanmuxi jumped away from the fire in an instant. Looking at the pile of flames in front of him, Duanmuxi couldn't help but touch her right leg. Fortunately, she didn't touch it just now, otherwise her right leg would Wouldn't the legs be useless
Seeing Duan Muxi's sudden action, Xuanyuan Mo suddenly regretted taking the matter so seriously. When he was about to open his mouth to comfort him, he heard Duan Muxi suddenly raise his eyes and ask, "How can I be admitted to the gods?"
Xuanyuan Mo was stunned when he heard this, then thought for a moment and said, "I was not a person in the immortal world in my previous life. If I want to become a god, I must return to the immortal world."
Duan Muxi nodded after hearing the words. She really didn't want to go to the fairy world now. All the events in her previous life were still vivid in her mind. The deaths of Emperor Father and Zichun seemed to be right in front of her eyes. She really didn't want to face the mistakes that had been etched in her heart. The most profound thing.
Looking at Duan Muxi who was suddenly silent, Xuanyuan Mo frowned lightly, a touch of distress flashed in his eyes, and gently hugged Duanmuxi into his arms, "It's okay, everything is over, they are all doing well now. "
A flash of relief flashed in Duan Muxi's eyes when she heard this. Indeed, compared to his previous life, his father is much happier now, and brother Zichun has always been a simple person. In that life, he was reincarnated as Lian Zhengyu, and she believed that he would also be happy. of.
"So early in the morning, do we have the intention to stimulate his loneliness?" Just as the two hugged each other, a teasing voice sounded from behind them.
