In the capital, Jixiang dealt with Tuoba Hong's affairs. On the northwest border, Tian Muyu finally arrived at the northwestern border city of Liangzhou with his army.

Tian Muyu brought Jiang Renhe and Ouyang Qingfeng with him again this time. When Jiang Renhe and Ouyang Qingfeng went into the city to notify the officials in the city to welcome them, they found that all the government offices in the city were controlled by King Qiong.

So the two of them used their Qinggong skills again and left the city quietly, just like when they came.

After listening to the two people's reports, Tian Muyu's face did not change. After a while, he said lightly: "Let the army stay here to rest first, and then you can go and tell King Qiong that I am here."

In Liangzhou city, in the former Liangzhou government office, how could King Qiong Tian Muqiong not know that Tian Muyu was coming with a large army, but he did not want to go out of the city to greet him, so he sat firmly on the throne and said this to the staff around him.

"How many people did he bring?"

"From what I can see now, I estimate that there are 100,000 people."

The aide was a middle-aged man in his forties with a small beard and looked very smart. His name was Tian Heng, and he was originally an aide to Cui Hao. When Cui Hao was squeezed out by Tian Muqiong, he chose to stay with Tian Muqiong because he had the same surname as the royal family and thought he had a connection with the royal family.

At this time, Tian Heng looked at Tian Muqiong and said, "The new emperor is at the gates of the city. Your Highness should go and see him."

"What are you meeting? Can we still have a happy conversation as brothers?"

"At least we can judge the new emperor's attitude towards the prince." Tian Heng said carefully, "Although your grandfather, Lord Kou, has caused a small commotion between the new emperor and the prince, you are still brothers in the end. I believe that he will not really take action because of the brotherhood."

Tian Muqiong shook his head. "No, I know my fourth brother well. Although he was honest and dutiful before, that was all his disguise. He must have been thinking about our father's position from a long time ago. Otherwise, with only a few hundred soldiers around him, do you think he could move into the capital so quickly and become the new emperor?"

"In this respect, he is very similar to my scheming Sixth Uncle. So, if I want to compete with him and successfully return to the capital, I can't be fooled by his superficial appearance. I must keep a clear face and draw a clear line between us. At worst, we can fight him with real swords and guns."

Tian Heng was worried, "But, our Northwest Army..."

"The Northwest Army has 300,000 soldiers. Can't they defeat Tian Muyu's 100,000 soldiers?"

Tian Heng saw that he could not persuade Tian Muqiong, so he did not want to continue to talk to him about this issue, so he said, "Then I will ask someone to find out if there are any more soldiers in front of the new queen?"

Tian Muqiong nodded and watched Tian Heng leave in a hurry.

As soon as Tian Heng left, Tian Muqiong's eyes turned cold and gloomy: "Jixiang, what can you do if you have the dragon and phoenix jade bracelet? This world will never belong to your Ji family, but only to my Tian family!"

He could never forget the strange light that appeared when Jixiang was cleaning up the people behind the dock on the way south, and the dragon and phoenix jade bracelet that symbolized the ability to rule the world.

But he didn't believe that Jixiang, as a woman, would have the courage and strategy to look down on the world. But everything he saw on the roof that night always made him feel a little worried and scared, afraid that their Tian family's world would really change and become her Jixiang's.

He would not allow such a thing to happen, even if the person next to Jixiang was his fourth younger brother.

Therefore, ever since he was kidnapped by Cui Hao's men, he had a plan in his mind. He wanted to take the opportunity to turn the passive situation into the active one and find a way out for himself and the Great Saint Dynasty.

He succeeded, and finally completely took control of Cui Hao's military power and forced Cui Hao to leave the northwest and go to the capital.

"How is Cui Hao now?" Tian Muqiong asked the guards around him.

This guard has been following him since he was the third prince.

Later, he was held hostage by Cui Hao's men. The guards followed him all the way and took the opportunity to control the leader who held Tian Muqiong hostage, which allowed Tian Muqiong to escape from danger. With the subsequent turn of events, he successfully infiltrated Cui Hao's inner circle.

The guard shook his head: "There is no news from Tuoba Hong yet."

Tian Muqiong: "Then do you think I should meet Tian Muyu?"

The guard thought for a moment and said, "Although the relationship between the prince and the new emperor was not the best before, there was never any grudge between them. If we avoid him this time, the new emperor will feel resentful."

Tian Muqiong thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes some sense." He stood up and walked around the room a few times, "Accompany me to see Tian Muyu!"

Thus, a large round umbrella with a golden cover appeared on the south gate wall of Liangzhou City. Under the bright and sunny autumn day in the northwest, the umbrella was illuminated by the sun and was quite dazzling.

Tian Muyu was the first to see the big umbrella and the man under the umbrella who was wearing the official uniform of the Jiedushi of the Northwest Army's National Protection Army.

"Third brother!" Tian Muyu couldn't help but call out softly.
