Verse 164: Waiting

"You too!" Mu Sheng bowed his hand in return, turned around and walked out of the Chinese military tent.

Now that he knew Su He's plan, it was inevitable to retreat, so Mu Sheng no longer stayed, and returned to Gyeonggi City by shrinking the land into inches, which took only three days, and early on the fourth morning, Mu Sheng entered the palace to see Emperor Nanhua.

The emperor sat on the top of the main hall of the Ninefold Palace, and met with Mu Sheng, Mu Sheng said: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my mission, so as to make peace with Su He, his army is about to retreat soon, but I also have a reluctant request, that is, the other party must not pursue and harass when he retreats." ”

Before the emperor could speak, the big eunuch on the side scolded: "Since you know that it is a reluctant invitation, then there is no need to say it." ”

The emperor waved his hand and said, "I'm talking to Mu Sheng Aiqing, don't you have to interject on the side." ”

"Wow. The eunuch retreated stupidly.

However, Mu Sheng keenly observed that the emperor said this, but in fact, there was no blame in his words, and sure enough, he heard the emperor say: "I can pass on this holy decree, but you must know that the generals will not be subject to the orders of the foreign monarch, and I am afraid that the generals may not listen to me." ”

Mu Sheng's face sank when he heard this, and he knew that the emperor said this to excuse him, but it was difficult to refute it, so he had to say: "If you want to come to the emperor's holy decree, the soldiers below dare not disobey, so as the emperor said." ”

Emperor Pi smiled and said, "I'll make an order, try it." ”

"Then, how long will it take for the Jade Ring magic weapon you promised me to give me, Emperor?" Mu Shengqing knew that the Emperor would not really make any holy decrees, so he had to retreat and ask.

The emperor smiled even more fakely, and said, "What is Mu Aiqing anxious about, isn't this that the bandit army has not yet withdrawn from Xiyun County?"

Mu Sheng bowed his head slightly and said, "Okay, then wait for Su and them to withdraw from Xiyun County." After saying this, Mu Sheng no longer wanted to say anything to the emperor, arched his hand and said goodbye, and as soon as he returned to the mansion, Nangong Yuhuan asked, "Today is still going well, didn't the emperor make things difficult for you?"

Mu Sheng snorted coldly and said: "Although today is not like last time, putting on a big official Tianwei, but it is also fake, and the emperor has a fake smile on his face throughout the whole process. ”

"Oh, I heard you say last night, on the way there, you were attacked by Ximen Yuqing of the Ximen family, and Zhao Zhong, the eunuch beside the emperor, did you go to meet the emperor today, and the emperor didn't react at all?" Nangong Yuhuan asked suspiciously.

Mu Sheng said: "I can't see anything on the surface, but I can see a lot of things in his eyes." When I met him this time, there was obviously some jealousy and hatred in his eyes, but it was hidden very deeply, and it flashed, it is estimated that I destroyed that Zhao Zhong's body, so he was a little wary of me, right?"

Nangong Yuhuan nodded after hearing this and said, "Probably so, you have done this, but you have to be more careful so that the emperor will not secretly send someone to attack." ”

"Well, I'll be careful, you don't have to worry about me, but I'm a little worried about you. Mu Shengdao.

"What are you worried about me?" Nangong Yuhuan was puzzled.

"I'm afraid that the emperor will harm me, and I will be angry with you!" Mu Sheng said, holding Nangong Yuhuan's hand.

Nangong Yuhuan felt the warmth coming from Mu Sheng's hand, and said with a faint smile: "I don't think it's enough, right?" But you are right, then I will stay at home honestly these days, and I will not go anywhere, with your talisman cover, there should be no problem, right?"

Mu Sheng stretched out his hand and took Nangong Yuhuan in his arms, and said, "Okay, then it's decided, as soon as the magic weapon of Yuhuan arrives, we will leave here, do you think it's okay?"

"Of course, I'm your bride now, as the saying goes, marry a chicken with a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, marry a mouse and walk all over the ground, I will naturally follow you all over the ground!" Nangong Yuhuan said with a smile.

"Okay, since I say I'm a mouse, then I'll let you give me a litter of rats. Mu Sheng said that he put his hand on Nangong Yuhuan and became lighter.

Nangong Yuhuan giggled and messed with Mu Sheng, and after a while, the two scuffled on the bed, and staged a full martial arts show shirtless without mentioning it.

In the past few days, Mu Sheng and Nangong Yuhuan have been nesting in the house, and every day you and I are tired of being together, and they are not willing to be separated for a moment, although the two of them do not leave the house, but the situation outside is talked to by the two of them every day, this news comes from the housekeeper in the house on the one hand, and from the Nangong family on the other hand.

When Nangong Yuhuan got married, the Nangong family also married many maids and maids, and these maids and servants would also tell Nangong Yuhuan the news from the outside.

The day after Mu Sheng returned, he heard that Su He's army had retreated from Xiyun County, and the retreat was very fast, almost overnight, and most of it was withdrawn overnight.

After this battle, Su He's army did not stop, but quickly withdrew from Xiyun County and rushed to the border between Nanhua and Juguo Prefecture.

Mu Sheng and Nangong Yuhuan listened, and the two couldn't help but smile at each other, knowing that Su He had safely evacuated Xiyun County according to the plan agreed upon in the matter, and now it was up to the emperor to fulfill his promise. However, Mu Sheng is not worried, even if the emperor does not fulfill his promise, Mu Sheng has a way to make the emperor hand over the magic weapon.

It's a big deal, go to the palace a few more times, with his current cultivation in the Dao Period, are you still afraid that you won't be able to harass the Emperor of Nanhua? Although Mu Sheng knows that there are still many masters in the palace who are hidden in the Dao Period, Mu Sheng is confident that he has the artifact in his hand and the Holy Witch Eye in his body, even if he can't beat it, can't he still run away?

Three days have passed since the news of Su He's withdrawal from Xiyun County, and Mu Sheng and Nangong Yuhuan still haven't waited for Emperor Nanhua's summons, nor have they seen any eunuchs send Yuhuan's magic weapon over.

Mu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, and said to Nangong Yuhuan: "You stay at home, I'll go to the palace and ask what the situation is?"

Nangong Yuhuan frowned slightly and said, "Maybe the emperor has been busy these days and is dealing with the aftermath, why don't we wait a few more days?"

Mu Sheng thought for a while and said, "It's okay, then it's up to you, let's wait a few more days." ”

After waiting for another week, Mu Sheng really couldn't help it, and was about to enter the palace to find Emperor Nanhua, and as soon as he said goodbye to Nangong Yuhuan, he listened to the housekeeper to report, and Concubine Lan came in Luan.

Mu Sheng and Nangong Yuhuan hurriedly greeted the general when they heard it, Nangong Yuhuan was about to salute, but was stopped by Nangong Yulan's order, Nangong Yulan smiled: "I don't dare to let my sister and brother-in-law salute, after all, my brother-in-law is a person who doesn't salute when he sees the emperor." ”
