"Your Highness, do you mean to win over Prince Jing'an?"

"That's right." Song Xuanjing nodded and said in a deep voice, "If we can persuade King Jing'an to join us, wouldn't it be much easier to kill the Wei family?"

"Your Highness is wise!" Li Yujing saw Song Xuanjing's smug look and hurriedly flattered him, "But which young talent should I look for?"

"Do I need to teach you these things? You can't even do such a simple thing?" Song Xuanjing glared at Li Yujing with a cold expression, and his voice was full of coercion.

"Uh...I understand, Your Highness."

Li Yujing was shocked by Song Xuanjing's mood swings, and immediately agreed: "I will do it right away!"

Song Xuanjing looked at Li Yujing's hurried back, lowered his head thoughtfully, and kept turning the jade pendant in his hand.

Let Li Yujing test the Rongguo Marquis Mansion, and when the birthday banquet is held at Yanhuan Mountain, he will visit King Jing'an in person.

There is no time to lose. My father is old, and all dangerous factors that threaten his succession to the throne must be eliminated as soon as possible!

Li Yujing trotted all the way out of the East Palace and did not slow down until he stepped out of the gate.

Although it is almost autumn, the sun is still scorching hot.

Li Yujing walked under a tree while breathing heavily.

Looking at the roof of the East Palace opposite, he recalled what the prince had just said.

"cut--"

He suddenly said to himself with disdain: "What noble family, what young talent, the Princess Yong'an is obviously interested in me."

He couldn't help but recall the conversation he had with Princess Yong'an on West Street.

The subtle tingling sensation on my shoulder is still fresh in my memory.

hey-hey--

He couldn't help but laugh out loud with joy. If Princess Yong'an specifically asked to marry him at that time, wouldn't the prince's expression be very interesting?

Moreover, once he becomes the son-in-law of the Rongguo Marquisate, his position in the court will be more stable.

The more he thought about it, the happier he felt. Li Yujing came to his senses and hurried back.

When the birthday banquet comes at Yanhuan Mountain, I will definitely hold Princess Yong'an in my arms!

Time flies and it is September.

After the beginning of autumn, the weather has become noticeably cooler in the past few days.

"Today is the day to go to Yanhuan Mountain."

Rong Sheng climbed out of bed before dawn.

She raised her eyes and looked out the window at the dim moonlight.

Master should have arrived at Wanjing Mountain by now. I wonder how Song Xuanlin’s health has recovered now.

Coming to her senses, she changed into a neat yet elegant dress, took out some medicine bottles and silver needles from the cabinet and put them in her arms.

If I see Song Xuanlin later, I should check his injuries.

He hoped that the master and he could successfully capture Rong Dexin’s garrison and King Jing’an’s army.

At this moment, near the Wanjing Mountains in the dark night,

A group of agile warriors were galloping on their horses towards the depths of the mountains.

In the blink of an eye, they easily reached the top of the thorny mountain.

The leading Wei Xun waved to the soldiers behind him. Seeing this, everyone followed his instructions, dismounted from their horses, hid in the darkness and prepared for battle.

Wei Xun calmly jumped onto the slope alone.

He lowered his head and looked down, and indeed saw the army that Rong Sheng had mentioned.

At this moment, the huge military camp was silent, and most of the soldiers in the tents were still asleep.

Wei Xun narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at the entire military camp from inside to outside.

After a moment, he suddenly turned around and ordered the deputy general beside him: "Tell them to bring all the oil drums over."

"General, do we have to pour all of it on us?" the deputy general asked in surprise.

"Yes, there are too many of them, and the military camp is large. We must first use fire to eliminate some of them, and then the rest will be easy to capture."

"Oh I see, General!"

After a while, the soldiers behind received the order and carried the oil drums and followed Wei Xun in the front towards the camp.

After a stick of incense, all the soldiers were assigned their positions, and each of them held a bucket of oil in his hand.

"Now pour all the oil in, be quick and quiet!"

I only heard Wei Xun in the team whispering an order.

Everyone tiptoed around the camp and poured the oil out.

After a while, the deputy general tiptoed to Wei Xun's side and whispered, "General, it's ready. When do you want to light the fire?"

"Right now!" Wei Xun replied in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The deputy general began to pass the instructions step by step.

Finally, everyone worked in unison to light the oil in front of them with torches.

In an instant, the entire military camp was surrounded by a wall of fire half a person's height, and the black valley was instantly illuminated as bright as day.

The raging fire spread along the thorns and weeds on the ground, from the outskirts of the camp all the way into the middle of the tents.

The curtains of some tents also caught fire instantly.

"Ahem, there's a strong smell of smoke. Do you smell it?"

"Yeah, there's a fire outside!"

"Go and have a look!"

The fires in the tents closer to the periphery were the most intense, and the soldiers inside were finally awakened by the thick smoke.

At this time, a soldier took the lead in lifting the curtain, but when he saw the situation outside, he was instantly frightened.

I can't see anything...

It's all fire, all vicious fire!

"on fire!"

"Get up quickly!"

The soldier shouted at the top of his lungs and tried to break out of the circle of fire.

But before he could take a step forward, the carnage-like fire wrapped around him tightly like a snake.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by heart-wrenching screams, the soldier was engulfed in flames from head to toe at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, the rest of the soldiers also woke up after hearing the noise.

They jumped out of the military tent as if they were running for their lives, trying their best to escape from the fire.

But things did not go as planned. Before they could escape, they were all swallowed up by the merciless fire.

This does not include Yangzan and Leiyin of Nanyue.

These two were actually the first to wake up.

They had fought on the battlefield for many years, so they knew the strangeness of the fire.

Moreover, Prince Jing'an had instructed that as soon as daybreak came, Emperor Dazhen would bring a group of dignitaries to Yanhuan Mountain.

And something happened in the military camp at this moment. It was obvious that the military camp had been discovered by King Jing'an's opponents, who wanted to intercept them before they could take action.

Unlike those soldiers who were like ants on a hot pan, Yangzan and Leiyin guessed the cause of the fire at the first moment, and then soaked the sheets beside them with water without thinking.

Then wrap the whole body tightly with a sheet.

Then, the two of them opened the curtain, exchanged glances, and then jumped into the air together, and then landed where the fire was the smallest.

"Let's break out quickly and head towards the foot of the mountain. There is a river there!" Yangzan whispered to Leiyin.

Lei Yin nodded and quickly followed Yang Zan's steps nimbly.

Ignoring the soldiers behind them who were howling in pain from the scorching heat, Yangzan and Leiyin continued to move around the camp relying on their memory, and finally saw the outskirts of the camp.

Very good!

The two men were delighted and rolled over to escape from the fire circle successfully.

But just as they rushed to the foot of the mountain full of hope.

A sword suddenly flew over from the side.

The sword swiftly flew across the sky, making a "chi chi" sound.

"Flash!"

Yangzan was quick-witted and quick-handed, grabbing Leiyin and quickly retreating.

Then, the sharp sword seemed to have eyes and pierced straight into the ground in front of them.

"I haven't seen you for a few months. General Yangzan's skills have improved. I really admire him."

Yang Zan turned around suddenly when he heard the voice.

They saw Wei Xun leading a group of soldiers slowly walking towards them.

Yang Zan was startled and shouted, "Wei Xun!"
