Thinking of this, Ali Zhuomu approached Mu Yunyu again.

"And the prince, we meet again."

Seeing Ali Zhuomu, Mu Yunyu was immediately furious.

"How dare you come here and frame the Crown Prince, and want me to clean up the mess for you? I absolutely cannot accept such cooperation."

He also cut off the news from the Prince's Mansion for no reason. I don't know what happened to the people planted in the Prince's Mansion and whether they have been discovered.

If he was discovered, why didn’t Mu Yunchen come to his house?

But if it has not been discovered, why has there been no news sent back yet?

"Hmph, you still have the nerve to say that. If you were not unwilling to help, my army would not have lost an envoy in vain."

Mu Yunyu was choked for a moment. It's not that he didn't inform Liang Bo, but who could have thought that a Shaoqing of the Dali Temple would appear halfway.

For the moment, I couldn't tell what Bai Yu's temper was like, so I had to sit back and wait and see.

"Forget it. I came here just to remind you, Prince Heqin, that my army will return tomorrow. I will still kill the prince for you, but please remember the deal between us. When the time comes, please keep your word."

Ali Zhuomu did not say that he wanted Mu Yunyu to help Prince Akoxin seize the throne. After all, it was not the right time yet and it was not appropriate to reveal too much.

Once Mu Yunyu becomes completely dependent on him, they can have in-depth communication.

The next day.

Alina came to the Prince's Mansion specifically to say goodbye to Mu Peiyun before leading the delegation to set off.

Although Ali Zhuomu wanted to warn Alina again, if she disobeyed his orders and acted on her own, he would no longer give Prince Aher the antidote.

But for some reason, Arina was surrounded by many of the Great Chanyu's elite guards, and he was unable to get close to her for a while.

They could only follow Arina's arrangements, after all, she was the highest-ranking person in the diplomatic corps.

After leaving the city, Mu Yunchen and his men followed the Li Ge convoy for a long time.

The convoy was leisurely along the way and it was clear that they were not in a hurry, as if they were deliberately slowing down their pace.

Bi Qi sensed that something was wrong with the surroundings, so he asked, "Your Highness, how long will we have to follow?"

Mu Yunchen also frowned. His father only asked him to send him off, but did not tell him how far to send him.

Just as he was thinking about it, a group of people suddenly flew out from the air and surrounded Mu Yunchen's men.

The convoy in front also stopped, and Ali Zhuomu turned around and led his men on horseback to kill Mu Yunchen.

"Master Ali, are you not pretending now?"

Although Mu Yunchen was prepared, he never expected that Ali Zhuomu had hidden so many people in the woods outside the city.

Ali Zhuomu did not make a fuss. After laughing a few times, he said, "So you already knew it. You are indeed the prince of Damu. You are not that stupid."

"Master Ali is kind enough to show me your kindness."

As soon as the words fell, the two sides started fighting.

For a moment, the woods were filled with the flashing of swords and the falling of leaves.

Arina lifted the curtain of the carriage and stuck her head out, ordering the people who were protecting her to come forward and help Mu Yunchen.

But the people sent by the Great Chanyu did not move.

"The Great Chanyu's order is to protect the princess at all times and never leave her side."

Arina was so anxious that she stamped her feet and wanted to get off the carriage directly, but was stopped by Ati.

"Princess, the Great Chanyu has given you orders, so you better obey."

Although Mu Yunchen's people came out of Bimingtang and passed through layers of mechanisms in Fengyun Pavilion.

But Ali Zhuomu had more people and more power, so it was still difficult for him to fight.

Alizhumu saw that Mu Yunchen was still resisting, so he gave an order and Li Ge's people started throwing iron eggs.

Thick smoke suddenly rose from the forest.

Fortunately, Lu Li had already developed an antidote for Huanzuilong's poison. Apart from some obstruction of vision, it did not affect the battle.

Seeing that there was nothing abnormal about Mu Yunchen's people, Ali Zhuomu suddenly felt incredible. Could it be that the poison had gone bad?

But he couldn't care less about all that. Ali Zhuomu rushed forward and surrounded Mu Yunchen.

When the smoke cleared, everyone felt exhausted, but Ali Zhuomu's people kept coming.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Bi Qi began to cover Mu Yunchen's retreat.

"Your Highness, you retreat first, and I will hold them back."

Mu Yunchen soared into the air and knocked down all the soldiers surrounding him.

When he landed, another group of people surrounded him.

It seems that Ali Zhuomu is determined to wear them out here today.

No matter how strong they are, if they continue to waste their energy like this, they will eventually become corpses due to exhaustion.

Mu Yunchen hesitated for only a second before waving his hand and leading his men to retreat.

But there were too many people on the other side and they were unable to break out.

At this time, a group of new people joined the forest from somewhere.

There were a large number of people, but they were all masked, and they quickly killed most of Ali Zhuomu's men.

Bi Qi asked in confusion: "Your Highness, who are these people? They look like they are here to help us."

Mu Yunchen felt a little cold in his heart, and a chill emanated from his whole body.

So what if he's masked? Aren't all these moves from the palace's Yulin Guards?

Mu Yunchen then understood why his father asked him to send the envoys out of the city.

Since the princess gave the covenant to him, it was because Ali Zhuomu controlled the princess.

Then he would send the princess out of the city, and if Ali Zhuomu turned around and assassinated him, it would verify whether what he said was true.

So this was what truly dispelled his father's doubts.

It's really interesting that his good father gave others the opportunity to assassinate him and then sent people to rescue him.

The group of people came and left quickly, and Ali Zhuomu was finally killed by Bi Qi's Cloud Piercing Sword.

Mu Yunchen's hair was a little messy. He put away his sword and walked towards the carriage.

"Princess, I will send you here. I wish you a safe journey and a quick arrival in Lige."

After saying that, Mu Yunchen turned his head to look at the bodies lying on the ground, and continued: "These are my great gifts to Li Ge."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Alina looked at Mu Yunchen's departing back and sat back in the carriage.

When the carriage started moving again, Arina's unquestionable voice came from the carriage.

"On their way back, the Lige envoys were ambushed by horse bandits. Fortunately, they were rescued by Crown Prince Damu. Unfortunately, Juqu was accidentally stabbed to death. This princess is deeply saddened. I will go back and comfort Juqu's family."

"If I hear other stories when I go back, everyone here today will have to drink a glass of poisoned wine."

Immediately, the people escorting Arina bowed their heads and answered, “Yes.”

When Mu Yunchen returned to the Prince's Mansion, his clothes were in a mess. He was about to secretly take a shower and change clothes, but was caught by Mu Peiyun.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Mu Peiyun hurried over, looked at Mu Yunchen worriedly, and took him around for a while. She was relieved only after confirming that he was not injured.

But I had clearly tidied everything up before I went out, so how come it became like this when I came back?

"Qingning, I'm fine. When I was escorting the envoy out of the city, the birds in the forest startled my horse, and I didn't hold the reins tightly, so I fell off."

Mu Yunchen's story was very convincing, but Mu Peiyun still couldn't help but worry.

"Are you injured? Your Highness, please let me take a look."
