"Hey, what you said sounds so wrong to me."

Mu Xueyan deliberately put on a stern face and pretended to be angry: "Are you making fun of me? I am exaggerating and deliberately deceiving you?"

"Is this what I meant?"

Murong Chen blinked innocently and smiled.

"I am listening..."

Mu Xueyan glared at him in dissatisfaction: "That's what I mean."

"hehe."

Murong Chen looked at her pretending to be arrogant and laughed happily from his throat.

"Stop laughing."

Mu Xueyan pouted her cheeks and pretended to be unhappy: "Do you agree or not? Just tell me the truth. If you don't agree, I will leave and won't stay here with you in the cold wind."

Murong Chen stopped smiling and his expression suddenly became serious: "Miss Yan, why do you think I would be a benevolent and righteous king?"

"We have known each other for many years."

Mu Xueyan said frankly: "I know your character very well. To be honest, as a king, your heart is not hard enough and cruel enough, so you can only be a king who maintains the status quo, not a hegemon who expands the territory."

"Moreover, without the support of those who are loyal to you, you will not even be able to hold on to the throne when facing the siege of wolves and tigers."

"Therefore, the generals of the Mu family army are willing to follow you and escort you. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you."

"If you don't take this opportunity to show your true feelings, win over people's hearts, and make them willing to be loyal to you, then when will you take this opportunity?"

"Raising an army without authorization is tantamount to treason."

Murong Chen was hesitant: "Even if the generals of the Mu family army are willing to follow me, we have no legitimate reason to rebel."

"Who said we were going to rebel?"

Mu Xueyan was confident and smiled slyly, "The old emperor will not live long. Once he dies, the princes in various places will rebel and the people will suffer. This will be the best time to rise up and put order out of chaos."

"Is what Miss Yan said true?"

Murong Chen was shocked: "My father is already terminally ill, is there any hope for recovery?"

"Uh-huh."

Mu Xueyan nodded and did not tell him that he was actually angered to death by his own son.

"Is my father going to die..."

Murong Chen lowered his eyelids, and a complex and indecipherable look flashed in his eyes.

"You're not sad, are you?"

Mu Xueyan held her forehead helplessly: "Are you sad for someone who killed your mother and abandoned you?"

“No, I’m not sad…”

Murong Chen suddenly laughed at himself and gave an unexpected answer: "I just regret that I couldn't avenge my mother personally."

"Uh."

Mu Xueyan was embarrassed and tried to justify herself, "Okay, I'm relieved that you think this way. At least it shows that you are not really, ahem, too kind and allow others to bully you."

"You want to call me stupid?"

Murong Chen smiled, understanding the hidden meaning in her words.

"Cough cough."

Mu Xueyan coughed awkwardly twice and deliberately provoked him: "Actually, sometimes, being too smart is not a good thing."

"Miss Yan, if it is really as you said..."

Murong Chen stopped smiling, pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision: "My father has passed away, the princes are in chaos, and the people are living in misery. I am willing to lead the Mu family army to restore order and rebuild the government as the young lady said."

"Okay, it's settled. Don't regret it."

Mu Xueyan's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her right hand, motioning for him to high-five and swear.

"No regrets."

Murong Chen smiled, followed her wishes, stretched out his hand and patted her palm.

The two smiled at each other, and saw the tacit understanding in each other's eyes.

"Since you agree, I will go back and tell General Yiliang and the others the good news."

Mu Xueyan was very happy to have completed the task: "Next, they will contact you. You can go down the mountain with them and live in the barracks, or stay in the villa before the army is launched. It's up to you."

"Ah."

Murong Chen was extremely grateful. After thinking for a moment, he said, "The elders of the Duty Hall have taken great care of me. I cannot just leave without considering his feelings. It is better for me to stay for the time being until he finds a suitable candidate to replace me."

"to make."

Mu Xueyan had no objection: "Just do as you say. I'll tell General Yiliang and the others to contact you as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Murong Chen nodded with a smile and watched him leave.

Mu Xueyan put an end to her worries and no longer wasted time in the world. She used her Phantom Steps and disappeared in a few flashes.

Qixia Peak, back mountain.

Hu Yuefeng, the head of Xianjian Villa, has a deep love with his wife. He has only one daughter, who he has raised in the palm of his hand and loves like a treasure.

Hu Muqing had an extraordinary bone structure and excellent aptitude for martial arts. At the age of only sixteen, he had already reached the tenth level of a warrior.

Every ten years, the Bi Tian Fairy Palace selects potential disciples in the mortal realm. Those who pass the selection will receive rewards, take the Yi Sui Dan, break through the limits of mortals, and enter the fairy realm to practice.

Hu Muqing lived up to his parents' expectations. He passed the assessment with first place and was qualified to take the Yisui Pill.

Being able to enter the fairyland to practice is a good thing that others envy.

However, Hu Muqing did not appear to be very happy. Instead, he became depressed and had no appetite. In just a few days, he had noticeably lost a lot of weight.

Master Hu and his wife saw it all and felt pain in their hearts. They wanted to persuade their daughter but didn't know where to start.

When Mu Xueyan arrived at Fenghou Mountain in Qixia, where the master and his wife and their disciples lived in their daily lives, she happened to see the couple standing outside their daughter's door, like ants on a hot pan, running around in a panic.

"Qing'er, can you open the door for Daddy?"

"Dad sent someone to bring you some good stuff from the Western Regions. I'm sure you'll like it."

"Girl, your father is talking to you, at least give me a response. Do you want to say something so that your father can know what's going on?"

"Qing'er, open the door first. No matter what happens, let us in first."

"You haven't eaten well in the past few days. Your mother is worried."

"Why do you say I'm anxious? Aren't you anxious?"

"You are much more anxious than me. You couldn't sleep well in the middle of the night and wandered around in the woods. I didn't know it was you, and I thought it was a ghost..."

"Ahem, Madam, you are here to advise your daughter. Why are you venting all your anger on me?"

"My daughter is worried and doesn't want to eat. What does it have to do with me? It's not me who made her lose her appetite. A young girl in love..."

"What are you talking about? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I won't forgive you..."

"Hey, okay, I won't say anything more. I don't care anymore. My daughter is grown up now. I can't control her even if I want to. Let her do whatever she wants..."

-

"Master Hu is quite smart and has almost figured it out."

"Yeah, Hu Muqing is obviously suffering from a heart disease, lovesickness."

"She loves Big Brother, but it's a pity that she is unsympathetic."

"Why are there so many crazy men and resentful women in this world?"

"Hahaha, Shi Bao, your accent really makes you worthy of being able to perform on stage."
