Chapter 361 Conspiracy (2)
"Thank you, I don't know what instructions the emperor would give to summon me?" Mu Yang Hou stood up and asked respectfully. Mo Jingqi did not speak, but stared at Mu Yang Hou thoughtfully and silently. Although Mu Yang Hou was anxious and worried, he did not dare to show any of it on his face, but the expression on his face became more and more respectful. After a long time, he heard Mo Jingqi ask in a deep voice: "Have Mu Qing received the letter of peace from the son?" Mu Yang Hou hurriedly said: "Go back to the emperor, I have received it. The most recent letter was half a month ago."
"Oh? What was said in the letter?" Mo Jingqi asked lightly.
"The quiver just reported peace, and by the way, mentioned that King Ding had arrived in Xinyang to meet with Princess Ding. I guess... the recovery of the entire northwest is just around the corner." Muyang Hou said, in fact, how could Mo Jingqi not know what the letter said? Mo Jingqi, who looked at Muyang Hou, who was a little trembling, suddenly smiled and said, "Mu Qing, don't be nervous. Mu Yang is... I have only written two letters for so long, and I am not afraid that my father will worry at home. Mu Qing knows where Mu Yang is now?" Mu Yang said cautiously: "I... I don't know. It's just that the dog son goes out with the army. At this time, it should be in front of the King Ding army."
Mo Jingqi snorted lightly and said, "Yes, King Ding is now leading 500,000 Mo family troops to fight with Nanzhao Xiling and King Li's coalition forces, and the son is the vanguard captain." Marquis Muyang's heart was jumped, and he looked at the emperor's face and asked in shock: "Emperor... so... northwest outside the pass..." Mo Jingqi smiled and said, "Northwest? Princess Ding personally commanded the 200,000 troops to fight with King Zhennan. Now... has retreated to Hongzhou. Muqing looks at this..." Pointing to several notes on the imperial case, Mo Jingqi said, Marquis Muyang Xie Guoen took the notes sent by the eunuch and saw that it was a request for battle.
Book. Although the war in the pass is fierce, the decrees received by the garrisons in various places are indeed that they should not move at the same place. So the generals could only watch King Ding and the three-way coalition forces deal with each other but could not move. Although they dare not say anything on the surface, anyone with some blood must be somewhat dissatisfied with this secret decree. Therefore, it was not unexpected that these generals requested to come out of the pass to reinforce Princess Ding, but the emperor was obviously very dissatisfied with this. Hou Mu Yang carefully said: "Emperor, the generals are also patriotic. The northwest, after all, it is part of the Great Chu and the emperor's territory, which is also their loyalty to the emperor."
Mo Jingqi did not really doubt the loyalty of these generals. He looked at Mu Yanghou and said, "Who Mu Qing thinks is more suitable to lead troops to the war now?"
"This..." Mu Yang Hou obviously did not expect that the emperor would agree to the plan to reinforce Princess Ding so easily. He could not react for a moment and hurriedly said, "Of course, the emperor is wise and sage." Mo Jingqi stared at him and said, "I want someone who is absolutely trustworthy to do this." Somehow, Mu Yang Hou suddenly felt something was wrong. He tried to maintain a calm smile on his face, "There are many ministers in the court who are loyal to the emperor, why don't the emperor worry about no one? I'm willing to lead the troops to fight." Mo Jingqi smiled with satisfaction and looked at Mu Yang Hou and said, "It's great. I'll not go to the northwest tomorrow morning. Tonight, the two states closest to the northwest will be dispatched by my husband." Mu Yang Hou smiled strongly and said, "Thank you, the emperor, I will never let the emperor down, and swear to expel the enemy's enemy to death and pacify the northwest."
Mo Jingqi's eyes turned cold and he said lightly: "Mu Qing once aspired to me to comfort me. But... I have something to ask my dear." Mu Yanghou felt his heart beat faster, and his intuition told him that it would be better not to listen to the emperor's next words, but the fact is that he could only stand in the hall more respectfully and said: "Please give me the order."
The voice in the hall became low. After a long time, an inconspicuous eunuch came out of the side hall. He looked carefully and saw that there was no one around. He quickly turned around and quickly headed towards the queen's palace.
No matter what else, the war in Hongzhou continued. King Zhennan seemed to have finally lost patience with the situation in front of him. He attacked continuously every day, and the night attacks at night became more and more intense. The small-scale sneak attack of the Mo family army could not stop the determination and pace of the Xiling army's advance. It is gratifying that Mo Hua finally arrived in Hongzhou with the secret guards, which made Feng Zhiyao, who had been frightened by Ye Li's secret guards, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Faced with King Zhennan's increasingly fierce attacks, the destruction of Hongzhou City was obviously foreseeable.
"Princess, please leave Hongzhou immediately." Mo Hua still looked expressionless and looked at the woman who was writing in front of him at the desk and said seriously. But if you look carefully, you can still find the complex eyes of admiration and worry flowing in your eyes. Mo Hua was a little dissatisfied and dissatisfied with Ye Li's intention to change the secret guards. Although he had a good understanding of her abilities, he only stopped there. But when he came to Hongzhou, he knew that this beautiful and graceful woman who was in the northwest was even pregnant. Mo Hua finally felt a little convinced. This Princess Ding was definitely different from any woman in the world. Because of this, he had to ensure the safety of Princess Ding. Whether it was for the prince or the future prince, or simply didn't want to see this strange woman encounter any unexpected problems.
Ye Li nodded and said, "I know, I will leave here in three days." According to her calculations, Hongzhou City can last at most three days. Three days later, the day when the people of Xiling attacked Hongzhou City, and they will also... be the day when they were completely destroyed. A trace of evil spirit flashed in Ye Li's eyes, and she calmly put down the pen and ink in her hand. Mo Hua said, "There are people in the secret guards who are good at disguising, and they can disguise themselves as princesses and stay in Hongzhou." Ye Li shook her head helplessly and said, "Do you think this can be hidden from the eyes of the Nanwang of Xiling Town? Mo Hua, don't worry, this concubine will leave Hongzhou before that." She lowered her head and stroked her still flat abdomen, and a hint of melancholy rose in Ye Li's heart. In any case, she could not put herself in danger for the baby who had not yet been born... Although she actually hoped to stay and guard Hongzhou City with the soldiers of the Mo family army.
Seeing Ye Li get up and turn to the bookshelf behind, she obviously said nothing about it, Mo Hua also understood that she couldn't persuade her and had to retreat helplessly.
On the way north of the pass, leading to Hongzhou, a few horses outside the woods were quietly eating grass. On the side of the fire not far away, Mo Xiuyao frowned slightly from time to time.
"Prince, the secret letter from the capital!" A Jin walked over and hurriedly sent a letter sealed with red fire paint. Mo Xiuyao's eyes flashed. He took the envelope and opened it. The content in the letter changed his face. A Jin, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but take a step back. He followed the prince for more than ten years. In A Jin's memory, the prince's face had never been so ugly. "Prince... What happened to the capital...?"
It took a long time to hear Mo Xiuyao gritting his teeth and saying, "Mo Jingqi!"
A Jin was stunned. He was not a smart person and he couldn't understand many twists and turns. But this did not prevent him from understanding that the relationship between the emperor and his prince was not as good as ordinary people thought. Could it be that the emperor did something and provoked the prince?
