The phoenix pattern is surging

[Xiping border city Juliang]

When Su Mo received the good news from Qingyuan, he clapped his hands and got up from his seat. Kang Ping took out a secret report from his sleeve and presented it to him: "Good news from Liuguo, Your Majesty please have a look."

Su Mo narrowed her eyes, bent her lips into a smile, and reached out to take the thing in his hand: "You move quickly."

"Anything that is exciting to watch, I must be very willing to do it."

Su Mo shook his head, opened the secret report, and there was only one sentence in it: "Heyang is harassed by bandits, and there is a danger of gathering crowds." When he saw it, he laughed loudly: "Is the danger of gathering crowds too light? "

Kang Ping raised his eyebrows and smiled tacitly: "In this way, the remaining troops stationed at Panlongju must take action."

"Very good! What's going on at Dongyue?"

Kang Ping shook his head: "There is no change at all."

Su Mo got up and walked out from behind the case, walked two steps towards the gate of the mansion, and asked, "Where's Linyang?"

Kang Ping smiled knowingly, and asked instead: "Hehe, what your Majesty wants to ask is probably not only the situation in Linyang?"

Su Mo's peachy eyes narrowed slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think?"

"I'm terrified, and I don't dare to speculate on the holy will." Kang Ping smiled slyly, then regained his composure, and replied respectfully: "The 15 soldiers and horses in Linyang have not dispatched a single soldier, and the Minghua Palace is guarded like iron. It's like a barrel, and it's impossible to find out the news inside. It's just that there is one thing that I don't know much about."

"what?"

"As the commander-in-chief of Beiye's three armies, Nan Liuliran shoulders the responsibility of commanding the troops. It's really strange why she stays in the palace for a long time and never shows up in front of others."

He didn't know the inside story, but Su Mo knew it all too well. To him, this matter was nothing more than a knot in his heart. Now that it was mentioned inadvertently, only he knew how it felt.

Seeing that he had been silent for a long time, Kang Ping raised his eyes and looked over. Seeing that the Son of Heaven had a different look on his face, he realized it belatedly, and kept his mouth shut.

After a long silence, Su Mo said in a deep voice: "There is nothing unusual about this matter, I know it well." Counting the days, it has been more than eight months now, how can someone surnamed Jiang be willing?

Seeing the disappointment in his eyes, Kang Ping took a step closer and said in a low voice: "Beiye is powerful now, and I have a plan, which may make him lose his footing."

"Oh?"

Su Mo restrained his mind and looked straight at him. Kang Ping took another step closer and whispered to him in a low voice. Su Mo frowned and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Let me cooperate with him?"

Kang Ping took a step back and replied respectfully: "Exactly."

Su Moring raised his eyebrows, without nodding or shaking his head, Kang Ping met his gaze with a calm expression on his face: "Cooperation is just a matter of benefit, and when the time is right, it's okay to make a big move eastward."

"Are you worried that with my own strength, I won't be able to defeat him Beiye Jiang Jue?"

"Naturally not, it's just for the sake of safety, I think this plan is feasible. Compared with false fame, it is a good country that is more important, does your Majesty think it is right?"

His tone was calm, and there was no panic on his face. Su Mo stroked the white jade dragon pattern on his thumb and thought for a long time before saying inexplicably, "You dare to speak."

Kang Ping bowed and bowed: "Everything I do is for your Majesty and the great cause of Xiping. If you can assist your majesty to complete the great cause of unifying the world, it will not be considered a waste of your majesty's attention."

He looked solemn, and Su Mo waved his hand after a long silence: "This is a big matter, let me think about it."

Kang Ping answered yes with a flat smile, then remembered something, approached Su Mo and whispered something, Su Mo nodded clearly, and then told Gonghuai Anxuan to come and see him.

After a while, the beautiful woman came in, saw Su Mo and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty."

Su Mo glanced at him lightly, and knocked on the edge of the table. The woman got up, stepped forward, and stood still in front of the table. Su Mo beckoned: "Come here."

Wang Suxin stepped forward, and Su Mo tapped on the place where Linyang was located, with an unpredictable expression: "Are you from Xinglin?"

"Exactly." She answered calmly, and Su Mo looked at her sideways: "Judging from your accent, it doesn't seem like it."

Wang Suxin's head was raised, her eyes were lowered, her expression was charming, Su Mo's mouth had a deep smile, and she raised her chin with her thumb: "You came to my side, but you want to save your useless old man, Xiang Xinsu? "

Xiang Xinsu's cheeks flushed, and there was unwillingness and embarrassment on his face. Su Mo smiled deeply, and the strength in his hand increased instead of weakening: "Xiang Qi can be regarded as Lao Huai's comfort to have a daughter like you."

"Please, let my father go."

"Let him go? Oh, I see that you still don't understand the situation, but he was the one who took the initiative to seek refuge in the first place?"

"Despicable and shameless!" Xiang Xinsu struggled while scolding. Instead of being annoyed, Su Mo slapped her cheek with a smile: "It's so aggressive, but I like it. It's too easy to be tamed, so it's boring."

"Let go! You stupid king!"

Such harsh words made Su Mo laugh loudly: "My harem lacks someone like you."

Xiang Xinsu couldn't break free, so he simply stopped struggling and turned his eyes away from looking at him. Su Mo smiled and approached him, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"If you want to kill or kill, you can do whatever you want. Since I have come, I have already put life and death aside, why should I be afraid of you?"

Su Mo seemed to be really interested, and the smile on his face became stronger: "Everyone is afraid of me, but you are an exception. It's okay, I'm in a good mood today, so I don't care about you, let's go down."

He loosened the two fingers that were clamping the opponent, Xiang Xinsu stood still and refused to leave, raised his head and asked, "Can you spare my father's life?"

Su Mo narrowed her peachy eyes, stared at her for a moment, and asked without answering, "What qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with me?"

"I have Yuan's secret genealogy in hand."

Su Mo raised his eyebrows, obviously not convinced, Xiang Xinsu smiled proudly, and read in a low voice: "Yuan's cloud ladder is composed of wheels, ladder body, and hook frame. The bottom frame is made of wood, covered with carports on all sides, and made of raw cowhide. Reinforced, it can resist damage from arrows and stones. There are six wheels at the bottom, which can be moved. There are hooks on the top of the ladder, which are used to hook the edge of the city. The body of the ladder can be tilted up and down. Up the city..."

She spoke slowly word by word, and Su Mo subconsciously listened carefully.

"How do you know this thing?"

"Yuan Qian, the third generation descendant of the Yuan family, is my enlightenment teacher."

"With such a talent in hand, he has been reduced to being bullied by other countries. Only Xiang Qi can do such a 'capable' act." His words were sarcasm, and Xiang Xin's heart ached, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Su Mo smiled deeply, and stretched out his hand to hug her: "It really doesn't take much effort to get here. No matter how strong the city wall of Linyang is, there will be a day when it will be pried open. At that time, you will never be able to escape."

Xiang Xinsu raised her head suddenly, just in time to meet the eyes of the person with peach blossoms, but seeing the other person's eyes were deep, and the eyes were painted into shadows, reflecting her face in it, she couldn't help but blush.

[Danfeng Capital City Linyang]

Li Ran frowned, glanced at the unappetizing thing, and kicked the foot of the person waiting beside him: "You can't be so diligent?"

Little Six looked at him with an aggrieved expression: "Your Highness, this is under the order of the mother, and the slave can't do anything about it."

"It doesn't take that much, does it?"

"Emperor Li said that there should be no drop of this decoction left, otherwise it will lose its effect, and it will be very harmful to His Royal Highness and Young Highness." He copied it, with a serious face on his face, and Li Ran lowered his head and looked at the dark place. with a hesitant look on his face: "Can you drink less?"

"Your Highness, good medicine tastes bitter. Or do you not even have the courage to drink a bowl of medicine?"

"No, it feels a little too much."

"Your Highness, haggling is not a good habit." The sissy said as she stretched out her finger and shook it in front of his eyes. Li Ran folded his arms and leaned on the couch, apparently deciding whether to drink or not, drinking more or less. wandering between.Seeing his hesitation, the sissy covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed, and raised the orchid finger and pulled the medicine bowl to his hand: "You, this problem is not good, it needs to be corrected."

Li Ran rubbed his brows and eyes, and stretched out his hand helplessly. When he touched the mouth of the bowl, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He raised his head and stared at the sissy for a long time, and then grabbed his ear: "Boy, I have grown courage again." Are you talking aggressively?"

The little six cried out in pain, shrinking his neck and begging for mercy: "Your Highness, Your Highness, just now, the slaves have overstepped so much, don't blame me!" Their appearances were quite different, and they shouted while talking: "Oh! Your Highness, spare your life! Please forgive me!"

"Isn't it exciting just now? You're still yelling at me?"

"Slaves don't dare! Don't dare again!"

He repeatedly begged for mercy, Li Ran let go with a smile, and did not forget to flick his red and swollen right ear: "Did you belong to the turtle in your previous life?"

The sissy sneered, just when Jiang Jue came back after finishing his business, saw the situation between the two of them, smiled silently, and raised his finger to signal Xiaoliuzi to go down.

The little six sons got the oracle, beat a thousand in a hurry, bowed and left the hall, as if there were wolves, tigers and leopards inside.In fact, as soon as Li Ran's temper came up, his kid really didn't have a good life.

Jiang Jue sat down beside Li Ran, picked up the medicine bowl, took a spoonful to test the temperature, and said with a smile, "It's not hot anymore, come on."

Li Ran took the medicine bowl from him, gulped it down a few gulps, and finally wiped the corner of his mouth in disgust: "It's so fucking bad."

Jiang Jue laughed, pinched a plum and stuffed it into his mouth: "Very good, not a single drop is leaked."

Li Ran curled his lips and didn't want to say more. When the smell of medicine in his mouth was not so strong, he remembered something and asked seriously: "What's the situation with Chen Pei?"

Jiang Jue wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "The fight went smoothly, with almost no obstacles."

"Dongyue hasn't moved yet?"

Jiang Jue shook his head, and took out a secret report from his sleeve. Li Ran opened it to read it, and said in a deep voice, "No movement doesn't mean it's a good sign."

Jiang Jue nodded, and paced around the hall with his hands behind his back: "Yechu's remnant soldiers are nothing to fear, but it's really suspicious that Yue Balance can be so calm."

Li Ran tapped his finger on the desk: "Don't forget that there is Su Mo, that guy is not a good guy."

Jiang Jue was silent, Li Ran thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, this is not what I am most worried about." He said while looking at the map on the eye shelf, "If Dongyue and Xiping send troops at the same time, this battle will be very difficult. Hard to beat."

Jiang Jue tapped three times on the map of Xiping: "No need to bother, concentrate our forces to attack Xiping directly, and Wenyue's army can take advantage of the trend and march southward, forming a siege. The reason why half of our troops have not moved in Liuguo is because It is for this reason.”

Li Ran rubbed his brows and eyes in confusion: "Since you made plans early on, why did you send Zixin out?"

Jiang Jue pointed to the place where Qingyuan's border was located, his eyes darkened: "Just in case Yin Qian cheats."

"What do you mean?"

"Although Qingyuan has already dispatched troops to call Mausoleum in name, whether he will kill a carbine or not is still unknown now, and sticking to Linyang is not a long-term solution after all. Zixin's departure here is to curb Qingyuan's return to aid. That's it. , do you understand?"

Li Ran nodded with comprehension. Thinking about it carefully, it really makes sense.

At this time, Ding Shun came into the hall to announce: "Your Majesty, there is news from Heyang."

Jiang Jue was startled for a moment, and raised his finger. Ding Shun shouted, and one person came in, knelt down, and lowered his head to present the memorial in his hand. Came over to take a hasty glance, and was startled: "How could there be rebels?"

"It's obviously not a coincidence that something happened at this juncture, and someone must be obstructing it."

"You mean Su Mo?"

Jiang Jue nodded, and his brows and eyes became tighter and tighter: "I can more or less guess what tricks he wants to play."

Li Ran rubbed his brows and eyes: "Damn! You're playing dirty!"

Jiang Jue's face darkened, and he threw the chess pieces in his hand on the board: "Heyang can't be messed up, we can only let Wenyue come back to help."

"Xiping has a lot of people in Panlong, will there be any problems?"

"I know exactly what Yin Qian's idea is, dispatching a small number of troops should not pose a threat to Wen Yue."

Li Ran saw that he had a determined look on his face, so he nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He casually picked up the booklet sent by the capital and looked at it, and said, "Yin Chen is very good at it, and Xiang Hua's matter is settled like this?"

Jiang Jue smiled lightly, and Li Ran casually threw the folder on the desk: "Is there enough food?"

He also asked casually, Jiang Jue frowned slightly, and smiled again: "It's not a problem for the time being."

Li Ran narrowed his eyes slightly: "Really?"

Jiang Jue punched the door with a smile, but couldn't hide his concern.
