With the help of Song Yanzhao, Gu Changhou and the little emperor successfully left the city and arrived at the camp in the south of the city.

When Empress Dowager Mu saw her grandson and younger brother return safely, she cried with joy.

When the guards of the camp in the south of the city saw Guchanghou, they were all full of morale.

On the second day, the Empress Dowager Mu issued a holy decree in the name of the little emperor to crusade against Ji Hui's rebellion, and Gu Changhou began to attack Ximeng City with his soldiers.

Ji Hui knew that Gu Changhou ran out of the city gate with the little emperor, and he fell a lot of things angrily, "Song Yanzhao!

It's no wonder that Ji Huiqi's seven orifices are smoking, he has been laying out for a long time, thinking that step by step, everything is in the palm of his hand, almost overnight, let Song Yanzhao bring this situation back to its original shape.

Huang Shan also frowned, discussed it with Ji Hui, and took a small team of people out of the city.

Outside the city, Gu Changhou's attack became more and more fierce day by day.

However, Ximeng City is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the two sides are fighting, each with its own losses, but Gu Changhou has no way to break through Ximeng City.

Two days later, the news came that Huangshan led troops to attack Pingshan.

Pingshan County is the county seat adjacent to Jingchangguo on Yizhou Road in Dazhou, and as soon as the news came, Guchanghou immediately sent someone to inquire about the news.

When the spies who waited for the news came back and said that there were only 30,000 troops on the Pingshan side attacking Pingshan, Gu Changhou's expression suddenly became very ugly.

Fortunately, Song Yanei took the first step back to Yizhou Road. He muttered to himself.

After he left the city, Song Yanzhao quietly returned to Yizhou Road with two people, and now it seems that he probably expected that Ji Huichen's 50,000 elite soldiers outside Cangyuan City might attack Yizhou Road, so he returned first.

I didn't expect him to be young, but he already had such a penetrating vision, Gu Changhou secretly sighed, I was afraid that Huangshan in the southwest would scold his mother this time.

Outside Cangyuan City, Huangshan rode on a horse, looking at the young man standing in Pingshan County from a distance, Shuangyuan couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment, and secretly scolded his mother in his heart!

Why did Song Yanzhao expect that he would lead his troops to attack Yizhou Road, and even took precautions first?

Not to mention the incomprehension and dark worries of Huangshan, Guchanghou in the camp in the south of the city is also a head with two big.

After the battle in Pingshan, Gu Changhou's expression became even more anxious, "There are only 30,000 soldiers and horses left on the Pingshan side, and Ji Hui must have secretly transferred 20,000 troops back." ”

Empress Dowager Mu's face turned pale, and a trace of pathos appeared in her eyes.

Ji Hui secretly transferred troops to help, and he must have wanted to take the opportunity to attack the defenders of Ximeng City on both sides, and encircle and annihilate the camp in the south of the city.

As soon as Ji Hui's reinforcements arrive, they will definitely suffer from the enemy on their backs, and then they will become someone else's urn, and no matter how hard they struggle, it will be useless.

"From Cangyuan to Ximeng, the army will travel for a maximum of two days, and we must capture Ximeng and win Jihui in these two days. Gu Changhou said solemnly.

But how can they capture Ximeng City? Everyone is helpless.

The camp in the south of the city was a little gloomy for a while.

Mu Jin has been trying to rescue Mu Ruo in the camp, putting aside the distractions in her heart, her attention and energy are gradually focused on Mu Ruo.

Mu Ruo's illness was different from others, or rather that she had a disease than a disease.

When the Empress Dowager Mu was fighting on the battlefield, she gave birth to Mu Ruo, who was born with congenital deficiencies and was very frail, and was judged by the witch doctors in Lingnan to live no more than ten years old.

The Jingchang royal family only had Mu Ruo's bloodline left, and the Empress Dowager Mu fainted on the spot when she learned that she might not live to be ten years old.

After that, she kept looking for various doctors to recuperate Mu Ruo's body, and outsiders only thought that Empress Dowager Mu particularly liked and pitied her niece, but they didn't know that it was the only bloodline she was trying her best to save the Jingchang royal family.

But no matter how many doctors she searched, the doctors came to the same conclusion.

Empress Dowager Mu gritted her teeth and found a witch doctor again.

Although there are many witch doctors in Lingnan, there are not many people who are really proficient, and it took a lot of trouble for the Empress Dowager Mu to finally find the witch doctor Ji when Mu Ruo was nine years old.

The Ji family used to be a family of witch doctors in Lingnan, and their ancestors also had a national teacher, but later because the family infighting was too serious and there was no excellent family leader, it gradually declined after three generations.

The heirs of the Ji family are also scattered all over the place, and they gradually lose the heirloom skills of the Ji family.

Empress Dowager Mu also took a lot of trouble to find the elderly heir of the Ji family.

He raised the Gu worms unique to the Ji family in Mu Ruo's body, and used the Gu to nourish his blood, so that Mu Ruo could live peacefully until he got married and had children.

Maybe it was the Gu worm that worked, Mu Ruo really lived to Helu, and after Helu, Empress Dowager Mu immediately let her adopted son Feng Mu Ruo be the queen.

A year later, Mu Ruo became pregnant and gave birth to a little prince at the age of seventeen.

Mu Ruo, who gave birth to the child, had an avalanche and almost died, although she was rescued later, the Gu worm that had been nourishing blood in her body died.

Mu Ruo's life immediately became in danger.

Ji Hui appeared at this time, the descendant of the Ji family who gave Mu Jin Gu worms back then has passed away, and Ji Hui is the closest heir to him.

He did have some means to save Mu Ruo's life and let the Empress Dowager Mu see hope.

Ji Hui told the Empress Dowager Mu that if she wanted to save Mu Ruo, she had to be in a cold place in middle age, and then find a woman who was also good at witchcraft and had internal strength to cooperate with him, and first freeze Mu Ruo for three years, and then unseal her little by little, so that Mu Ruo could return to her original state.

Empress Dowager Mu was skeptical, but she still did it when she was eager to save her daughter.

Mu Ruo's secret is not easy for others to know, and after thinking about it, only his mother, Mrs. Mu, can cooperate with Ji Hui.

Old Madam Mu was born in the old witch doctor family in Lingnan, the Meng family was once as famous as the Ji family, but compared to the charms and Gu worms that the Ji family is good at, the Meng family is better at prayers and formations.

They froze Mu Ruo on Baiyun Peak, and for three years, Mrs. Mu went up the mountain with Ji Hui every half a month to untie Mu Ruo's ice, which caused Mrs. Mu to suffer severe pain and deformation of her joints all over her body.

In the past three years, Empress Dowager Mu watched her daughter go from being completely sealed in ice at the beginning, to only lying on the ice bed and breathing like an ordinary person, so she slowly believed in Ji Hui.

It is also because of this that she tolerates Ji Hui in every way, praying that Ji Hui can save her daughter as soon as possible.

She didn't know that Ji Hui was actually just another kind of Gu worm on Mu Ruo, this kind of Gu worm could temporarily seal a person's breathing veins, but this kind of Gu worm could only survive under extremely cold conditions, relying on people's internal strength.

In other words, Ji Hui may not be able to save Mu Ruo at all, he just kept her life.

After Mu Jin dissolved the Gu worm that froze Mu Ruo, he used his own blood as a medicine guide and fed Mu Ruo medicine every day to recuperate.

They have the same bloodline and meridians, and Mu Jin believes that her blood will definitely save Mu Ruo.

Sure enough, on the third night of the Gu worm inducing it, Mu Ruo slowly opened his eyes.
