You could hear needles dropping in the hall, and everyone was curious. How could such a frail and pretty man be so popular that so many people were fighting over him?
Shi Hu shook his head decisively, "The military advisor must go out to fight."
Shi Hong finally got angry, "Mr. Zhongshan, I am the supervisor of the country. I asked the military advisor to stay in Xiangguo, and she will stay in Xiangguo. If you don't agree to the military advisor staying, you can abolish me as the supervisor and go yourself.
sit!"
Shi Hu sneered and raised his chin, "The prince is joking."
With this arrogant look, he seems to have regarded himself as the king of Zhao!
He Mucheng knew that there was no point in arguing with him now, so he just replied respectfully, "I obey the order."
Looking at Shi Hong's panic, He Mucheng gave him a soothing smile and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Your Majesty, Duke Zhongshan is a loyal minister. Your Majesty has always used the Sima family as a warning, and asked the Zhao brothers to support each other and not to leave any excuse for future generations."
, That’s why he is so eager to conquer the world for the crown prince, and does not leave any ministers in Xiangguo, because the Duke of Zhongshan alone can protect the crown prince, are the Duke of Zhongshan and the ministers right?"
What she said was very straightforward. She put everything on the bright side. If Shi Hong encounters any accident in the palace, it will be blamed on Shi Hu!
Shi Hu's mouth and nose trembled, and he snorted coldly, "That's natural."
He Mucheng smiled slightly, "In that case, the prince can rest assured and wait for the good news in the palace. By the way, prince, you have always told Wei Chen that you want to taste Youzhou's honey juice cake. When Wei Chen returns home in triumph, you must bring him
Let me give you one to try!”
Shi Hong looked at her quietly for a long time before nodding silently.
The meaning of what she said could not be clearer. To prove Shi Hu's loyalty was to eliminate Shi Hu's desire to assassinate Shi Hong. Bringing special products was to eliminate the possibility of committing suicide due to worry.
In other words, as long as Shi Hong does not leave the country of Xiang, Shi Hu cannot do anything whether it is suicide or homicide.
This contest ended with Shi Hu's defeat.
After going to court, Shi Hong was finally able to see He Mucheng alone in the side hall.
"Sister, don't go..." Shi Hong held her fingertips, his eyes moist.
He Mucheng stared at the 244 points in the system and without hesitation redeemed all the props that could help him defend himself.
"Hong'er, you must carry these things with you." She introduced the functions and uses of the props while reaching out to touch the top of his head. "Remember, no matter what news you hear, you cannot leave Xiangguo."
Shi Hong shook his head, "Sister, you'll be fine, right?"
He Mucheng gave a bitter smile, and his face slowly became serious, "I will be fine, but you will be. Once you leave Xiang Country, Shi Hu will definitely kill you and avoid future troubles. Do you understand?"
"When will you come back?" Shi Hong reached out and held her shoulders.
It was clear that winter had passed, but the palm on her shoulder was still bitingly cold, as if no amount of warmth could dissolve the sadness in his bones.
He Mucheng looked at Shi Hong quietly. After a long time, she exchanged ten more lollipops from the system.
With the catkins sticking out from his sleeves, He Mucheng held Shi Hong's palm, handed the candy to him, and said softly, "I will come back as soon as possible. If you feel bitter, just eat one. After you finish eating, my sister will come to pick it up."
is you."
"What is this?" Shi Hong's attention was attracted by the round thing in his hand.
He Musheng peeled one off for him and put it to his lips. Seeing him swallow it, he raised his lips and smiled, "The things I gave you before were life. This is life."
Feeling the sweetness melting in his mouth, Shi Hong finally smiled.
After leaving the side hall, Ji Yunyuan was waiting in the corridor.
He leaned against the red pillar wantonly, folded his arms, hung his sword on his waist, and narrowed his eyes gently, looking at the red clouds in the distance.
Seeing the little girl walking towards him, he immediately straightened his back.
"The elite beggar army has been hiding outside Xiangguo City. If you find a reason, you can evacuate at any time." Ji Yunyuan looked around and said in a low voice when he saw no one around.
He Mucheng nodded, and the two of them left the palace, returned to the mansion, and got ready to go.
"The reason is easy to find. As long as Shi Hu rebels, you can use the excuse of 'not associating with rebellious officials and traitors' to evacuate the Ji family army," He Mucheng thought, "but Shi Hu seems to have already expected this, so
He hasn’t acted rashly yet, but it seems that he wants to use Ji’s army to capture Youzhou and then make plans.”
"Didn't you say that I can't participate in the battle of Youzhou?" Ji Yunyuan looked at the busy Ji Jiajun, a little confused.
He Mucheng nodded, "Well, the Yan Kingdom also covets Youzhou, a treasure land."
When Ji Yunyuan heard her talking about the Yan Kingdom, his handsome face sank, "You want to take advantage of Murong Ke? No, you are seeking skin from a tiger. That thief fox is not only full of evil, but also disrespectful to you..."
Hmm? Thief fox?
If she remembered correctly, Murong Ke seemed to have been calling her, little fox...
Who is the fox?
He Mucheng coughed lightly and said consolingly, "After all, he is a better gentleman than Shi Sui. Let's let the news out. When the time comes, you will face off with Murong Ke and let Shi Sui fight Duan Pixi. It will not be difficult to capture Youzhou.
He alone is enough."
"Do you think Murong Ke is easy to deal with?" Ji Yunyuan saw that she spoke lightly and wanted to scare her, but he didn't expect that the little girl's next words made him widen his eyes!
I saw He Mucheng reaching out and patting his chest, and said in an old manner, "General, don't belittle yourself. Most of the Yan army is light cavalry, while most of the Ji family army is coordinated by infantry and cavalry. As long as Murong Ke is lured to the hills and jungles, close to the water source, they
It cannot be dispersed and reunited.”
Ji Yunyuan raised his eyebrows and said in disbelief, "Where did you know this?"
He Mucheng said nonsense seriously, "I am familiar with the art of war, so I can go to battle and kill the enemy..."
"You have a beautiful idea!" Ji Yunyuan smiled fondly and reached out to push her head.
He Mucheng glanced at him and then showed worry, "Actually, what I'm most worried about is Hong'er. Can the elite beggar army stay near Xiangguo? If Hong'er really leaves the city, I'm afraid that Shi Hu will
Be ruthless."
Ji Yunyuan shrugged, "Okay."
"I don't believe it, I want to go with you to explain." Seeing that he answered readily, He Mucheng raised his chin suspiciously.
Her words successfully caught Ji Yunyuan's attention.
He leaned closer and saw that the little girl seemed to be hiding again. He frowned in displeasure and reached out to hold her in his arms.
"What are you hiding from? I didn't see you resisting like this when Shi Hong held your hand." The voice was muffled and seemed to be breathy.
How jealous is he?
No, what is her relationship with him, and why should he control her?
Thinking of this, He Mucheng's heart relaxed. He innocently raised his eyes and said, "I am Hong'er's sister. Who am I, General?"
Ji Yunyuan was speechless and choked!
But soon, Ji Yunyuan saw the scars on the little girl's lips. He curled his lips with satisfaction and tightened his arms domineeringly, "Nan's Ayan, I am alone now, and the excuse of not wanting to be a concubine is no longer valid.
, let me see what other excuses you can come up with to stall me?"
"Ji Yunyuan, you are trying to steal something, which is not elegant!" He Mucheng struggled, but could not stop his iron-like arm strength.
"Ayan, your body was seen by me and your lips were kissed by me. Now you don't ask me to be responsible for you and you are still rejecting me in every possible way. How can there be such a stubborn and clumsy woman like you in the world?"
This sentence really carries an accusation, with a drag at the end and a touch of grievance.
He Mucheng half lowered his head and raised his eyelids. This look made her ignore it and burst into laughter!
Ji Yunyuan could be seen curling up the corners of his mouth, like a tiger that had been bullied by her. He was clearly on the verge of collapse, but he was still trying to please her cautiously.
Ji Yunyuan was furious and raised his hand to hold her cheeks.
Just when he was about to lean down and kiss Fangze, a sharp shout suddenly came from behind him, "Ji Yunyuan! Are you... are you really a good man?"
