Su Qiaoer was defeated, but the people from Beidi did not withdraw from Rongzhou as originally planned, and they had the intention of spending another period of time with them.

After hearing this, Ye Guyun in the tent shouted: "How can you be so cunning!"

It is definitely not the behavior of a gentleman to break his promise.

But Liu Wuyan shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid, it's not up to Su Qiaoer to decide."

Above Su Qiaoer is Beidi Guoshi.Beidi Guoshi is insidious and cunning, and it was also his idea to send troops to attack this time.

"On the surface, we have won, and we are not far from driving the Beidi people out of Daqi." Mu Yuanshu frowned. "But in fact, Beidi people still have the upper hand. Once the second prince comes, he will definitely make a big fuss."

The emperor's dragon body is getting worse and worse, and the second prince is now more anxious than before - if the emperor has trouble in the capital, and he is far away in Rongzhou, and it's too late to go back, wouldn't the previous efforts be in vain? Let the sick and eldest prince who has been staying with the emperor get an advantage?

"That's right, the second prince will definitely ask for peace with Beidi this time." Liu Wuyan nodded. "Only by solving Rongzhou's problem in time, can he rush back to the capital and secure his position as the crown prince."

The second prince aimed at Mu Yuanshu in this way, also for the sake of being the crown prince.The emperor dispatched so many helpers to Mu Yuanshu without telling the civil and military officials, which undoubtedly hurt the second prince's heart.

Coupled with the rumors in the court, it was hard to believe that Mu Yuanshu didn't have the heart to compete.

"The second prince is narrow-minded and cruel." Ye Guyun said with lingering fear. "Throw away the used chess piece as soon as you say it. If he is allowed to ascend the throne in the future, those of us... I'm afraid it will not end well."

Would rather kill by mistake than let him go, a potential threat to the throne, how could the second prince let him go back alive?

Ye Guyun, who didn't want to think too much, also looked at Liu Wuyan with a complicated expression, and a hint of meaningful emotion flashed in his eyes.

"You won't sacrifice Zixing, will you?"

What Wen Liang asked, Ye Guyun asked again, as if reminding Liu Wuyan to keep his promise.

Others may not know Liu Wuyan very well, but Ye Guyun has been pinching him for many years, so he naturally knows what Mu Yuanshu means to him.

For so many years, it's not that Su Xiang and the second prince never thought of moving Mu Yuanshu.But Liu Wuyan is not a vegetarian either—at critical moments, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his reputation to protect Mu Yuanshu.

Based on this, it was hard for Ye Guyun to believe that he would not sacrifice other insignificant people.

"I made a guarantee for you in the name of Tianjimen, you will never let me down, right?"

Ye Guyun's words sounded like a joke, but in fact, they implied threats.

How could Liu Wuyan fail to understand what Ye Guyun meant, he smiled lightly, and when he was about to say something, Mu Yuanshu spoke for him.

"Although the road ahead is bumpy, there is no need to sacrifice anyone." Mu Yuanshu said in a deep voice, but looked at Liu Wuyan. "Second prince, I have my own way to deal with it."

Liu Wuyan, who couldn't see any expression just now, was suddenly stunned, he was extremely surprised: "Your Highness...you have decided?"

Ye Guyun's eyes turned between Liu Wuyan and Mu Yuanshu, showing a puzzled expression.

"Hey! What kind of charades are you two playing..." He hummed unwillingly, but his voice gradually became weaker.

Ye Guyun: Good guy, I should be under the table.

Mu Yuanshu's eyes were burning, and with just a nod, Liu Wuyan understood what he meant.

"Since it's His Highness's decision, then I..." Liu Wuyan collected his thoughts and smiled. "Naturally there will be no comments."

After all, he patted Ye Guyun on the shoulder, and shook his head pretending to be regretful: "Master Ye has a deep friendship with Zixing."

The words were so ambiguous that Ye Guyun had no choice but to refute: "Zixing is a close friend of A Xue and I! I was afraid that A Xue would be sad!"

He is sincere to Wu Xue!Can't let Liu Wuyan's red lips and white teeth be stained!

Liu Wuyan smiled and said, "Don't worry. I'm still a half-disciple of Tianji Sect. You swear on it at will. How can I let it fail?"



A few days later, the escort team arrived.

The second prince is travel-laden, with a vigorous and resolute appearance.It stands to reason that he and Mu Yuanshu are on the same level, but when the two armies met, he wanted to overwhelm Mu Yuanshu everywhere, which made Ye Guyun very upset.

"Tch, the villain has achieved his ambition." Ye Guyun snorted, and immediately felt pain again. "Hey! Take it easy, Ah Xue!"

Fortunately, there were only the two of them in Wu Xue's tent, otherwise, if someone heard her words, they would cause trouble again.

"Strange, it's scabbed, how can it still ooze blood?" Wu Xue had reason to believe that Ye Guyun must have done something behind the scenes. "Hey, are you thinking about it?"

Ye Guyun shouted injustice: "I only used a little strength, and the wound ruptured! Besides, brother Wen asked me to repair the stool, so I must help, right?"

At first glance, it sounds reasonable.

When mentioning Wen Liang, Wu Xue thought of Cui Chengyan.

Since that inexplicable bump on the head, Cui Chengyan's stupidity began to go up and down again.He seemed to remember something, but he didn't seem to remember anything. Once he concentrated on thinking about it, he would complain of a headache, which really killed them.

Wu Xue no longer dared to say anything about stimulation therapy, and Wen Liang didn't want to make Cui Chengyan suffer anymore.Although Liu Wuyan didn't say anything on the surface, he must be sighing in his heart.

Wu Xue asked: "If Zixing is really not well, is there any other way Mr. Liu can do?"

Ye Guyun was surprised: "Axue..."

Good guy, when did his Axue care about someone so bluntly?Ye Guyun always felt that since getting to know Cui Chengyan, Wu Xue had also vaguely changed, and seemed to be more popular.

"Don't think about it, I'm just worried about Brother Wen." Wu Xue hurriedly explained, but after thinking about it, why did he explain to Ye Guyun?

Wu Xue has always been open and aboveboard, but last time he accidentally tricked Wen Liang, it always made him miss it.

Ye Guyun didn't know the meaning of it, sourly said: "I... what can I think."

Ah Xue has been avoiding him for the past few days, making it clear that she wants to ignore the problem from last time.

Ye Guyun looked at his gauze-wrapped hands and thought to himself, luckily Sanqi is clever, otherwise he would have missed even the last chance to catch Ah Xue.

"Who knows what you're thinking." Wu Xue glared at him. "Although I only care about the injuries, I can also tell that the second prince is not kind. You all have to be careful."

The second prince is very polite to Wu Xue, probably because he is a doctor.But Wu Xue didn't like him, after all, Cui Chengyan was like this, almost thanks to him.

Ye Guyun was immersed in the feeling that Axue also cared about me, and for a moment forgot to ask about the result of the three-day agreement.

Wu Xue, who sent Ye Guyun away, finally breathed a sigh of relief, his calm just now was all fake, he didn't think about how to face Ye Guyun at all.

No wonder Wen Liang would say that he and Ye Guyun were the same, they kept cutting and the reasoning was messed up.



The second prince and Mu Yuanshu were discussing the next battle plan in the tent, and the two almost quarreled.

In terms of seniority, Mu Yuanshu was still the second prince's cousin, and the second prince was really not polite to him at all.

"Mu Yuanshu! You clearly want to fight against me!" The second prince slapped the table and almost knocked the teacup over. "After guarding for so long and being beaten out of Rongzhou, I feel ashamed for you!"

"I have a clear conscience. All battles have been recorded in detail. If the Second Prince has any doubts, you might as well go and read them."

Mu Yuanshu looked at him frankly, without any fear.

What he said was the truth—the Beidi people had been unable to beat them before, so they had been harassing the outside.As long as it takes a little more time, Mu Yuanshu believes that they will be able to drive the Beidi people back to the desert without a single soldier.But later, if the people of Beidi had divine help, they seemed to be able to predict their military arrangements in advance, coupled with Su Qiaoer's sudden appearance, this caused them to retreat steadily.

All these military situations were written in the battle report, and all civil and military officials in the court knew about it.The second prince is now deliberately making things difficult, and Mu Yuanshu has nothing to do.

Liu Wuyan and Cui Chenglu stood beside Mu Yuanshu and the second prince, both showing inscrutable smiles.

With such a clear distinction, there is a vague trend of division.

Liu Wuyan did not expect that Cui Chenglu would be the second prince's military governor.

Su Xiang...is it necessary to help the second prince take Rongzhou quickly?

"His Royal Highness, Master Liu, please stay safe." Cui Chenglu cupped his hands and said hello. "The battle is pending, and it's not a solution to delay it for a long time. Besides, the emperor's dragon is not in good health, so it's not appropriate to worry about it anymore. Therefore—"

"In the view of the lower officials, it is a good policy to discuss peace."

The second prince's expression softened, he snorted coldly: "Those who know current affairs are outstanding, I'm afraid some people... have selfish intentions."

Mu Yuanshu, who was alluded to be selfish, smiled generously and his eyes froze.

"Whoever has selfishness knows it in his heart." His tone became cold, "Since Emperor Taizu, Daqi has never taken the initiative to negotiate terms with Beidi. Decades ago, Beidi was almost beaten to destroy the country, sent We were able to survive with a princess who came to marry us, but now...you want us to cede the city?"

Mu Yuanshu moved the Taizu Emperor out, clearly to ridicule the Second Prince for being ashamed of his ancestors.

The second prince gritted his teeth angrily: "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs! It is an indisputable fact that the emperor is not in good health! Don't you want to see the emperor--"

The rebellious words were about to be blurted out, Cui Chenglu's face changed, and he shouted urgently: "Your Highness! Be careful!"

"Humph!"

The second prince flicked his sleeves, and the anger on his face grew stronger.

"Second Highness, please calm down, His Highness Shizi didn't mean that..."

Liu Wuyan was about to say a few words to smooth things over, but he heard someone outside the tent announce: "Second Highness! Someone wants to see you!"

A person who looked like the second prince's confidant hurried into the tent, and said something nervously in the second prince's ear.

"Okay! Very good!" The second prince's face changed from cloudy to clear, and he strode towards Mu Yuanshu.

"Cousin, do you know that harboring court criminals is a felony?" He looked down at Mu Yuanshu with indescribable satisfaction in his eyes. "The felon who cheated on Beidi is hiding in your barracks, how dare you say...you have no selfish intentions?"
