Lin Hongyue looked at Mu Chen and said with a smile, "How is it?

Mu Chen didn't speak, he had nothing to say.

Lin Hongyue said, "Since that's the case, then I think we're okay and there's no need to waste time here."

Mu Chen said, "No, I still want to ask you something"

Lin Hongyue said, "You ask"

Mu Chen said, "What about Dongfang Wrong?"

Lin Hongyue said, "He has broken his hands and feet, lying half dead in the dungeon"

The corners of Mu Chen's eyes twitched, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Even if Dongfang Cuo's martial arts are not much stronger than him, they will never be weaker than him, and Dongfang Cuo has already lost to Lin Hongyue, so how can he be Lin Hongyue's opponent?

Lin Hongyue said, "Speaking of this, I also want to thank you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought of any way to control the Eastern Dynasty." ”

Bai Chutian walked up to Mu Chen's side and said in a low voice, "Boss, I didn't expect it either"

Mu Chen said, "It's okay, it's not your fault"

Mu Chen suddenly said to Lin Hongyue, "Don't you like to bet with me? Let's gamble, how about it?"

Lin Hongyue said, "How to bet?"

Mu Chen said, "The two of us will go to the city tower to fight a decisive battle, and whoever comes back alive will win."

Lin Hongyue pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you"

Bian Xiaofeng said, "Big brother, no, you have injuries"

Bai Chutian said, "Boss, I'll go for you"

Mu Chen said, "You all stay here, if it wasn't me who came back, you wouldn't resist anymore, so as not to have unnecessary casualties"

Lin Hongyue stretched out her hand sideways and said, "Please"

Mu Chen straightened up and slowly walked out of the palace.

Lin Hongyue followed behind him.

Bian Xiaofeng stared at Murong Xia. Because in his opinion, Murong Xia betrayed his friends, and those who betrayed their friends often felt a little weak in front of their old friends.

Bian Xiaofeng just wanted to make him feel ashamed, but he forgot one thing. Murong Xia is a blind man, although he is usually no different from ordinary people, but at this moment, his eyes can't see, which has become a blessing for him.

Sima Yunxuan was looking at Sima Shao, and Sima Shao was also looking at him.

Sima Shao hadn't spoken since just now, he looked at Sima Yunxuan. He saw disappointment in Sima Yunxuan's eyes. What shocked him even more was that he actually saw a longing in Sima Yunxuan's eyes.

He couldn't help but be shocked, looking in the direction where Mu Chen and Lin Hongyue had left, and he was silently asking himself in his heart, "After tonight, how long can I sit on this dragon chair like pins and needles?"

The moon is still obscured by dark clouds, and the stars are unwilling to shine their light on the world where the hearts of the people are surging.

The only thing that doesn't change is snow, and it doesn't stop falling.

The snow fell heavier and heavier, falling on the hair of the wood dust, the tip of the nose, and melting into water droplets.

Mu Chen didn't wipe it, he just straightened up and walked towards the city tower step by step.

Lin Hongyue was beside him.

Climb the castle tower and overlook the entire northern capital.

It is now two watches, but the city is still brightly lit, crowded, and busy, a lively and extraordinary scene.

At this time, I was sleeping a few days before the Spring Festival, and even though it was late at night, the city seemed to be full of enthusiasm.

Lin Hongyue pointed to the prosperity in the city and said, "Do you see it?"

Mu Chen smiled and said, "Of course"

Lin Hongyue said, "What did you see?"

Muchen Road "Peace"

Lin Hongyue sneered, "Mu Chen, do you know? Actually, I sometimes feel worthless for you."

Mu Chen said, "Why do you say this?"

Lin Hongyue said, "I thought that a boy should stand up to the sky and the earth in life, and he should build a meritorious career for all generations when he dies, right?"

Mu Chen smiled bitterly, "As long as there are aspiring men, they will think so." ”

Lin Hongyue said, "But what about you, I don't understand, with your ability, you can build a big career, but you are always running around for others, maybe in your opinion you are great, but in my opinion, you are a stupid person."

When Mu Chen heard this, not only did he not get angry, but said, "Do you want to build a meritorious work for all generations?"

Lin Hongyue looked at the falling snow and said slowly, "This is my ambition, I want to make the world that has been chaotic for decades finally unified."

Mu Chen sneered, "So you can't wait to become emperor?"

Lin Hongyue said, "I think I've waited long enough in my life, you know some things, you can't wait too long"

Mu Chen said, "I understand"

Lin Hongyue's eyes shone brightly, and she said, "This world, one day it will belong to me"

Mu Chen said, "Do you think I have no ambition and no pursuit?"

Lin Hongyue did not deny it, and said, "This is too sad for a person."

Mu Chen smiled, "I originally thought you and I were similar, but now it seems that you and I do have a lot of differences."

Lin Hongyue said, "So we are not destined to be the same kind of people, and people with different paths cannot return together."

Mu Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Do you know what makes you different from me?"

Lin Hongyue said in a deep voice, "What I pursue is a brilliant career, but what you pursue is chivalry that is famous all over the world."

Mu Chen was in awe, and said, "I thought that after Hua Miaoru, Mu had no more confidants, but I didn't expect to find another one today."

Lin Hongyue didn't answer him, but asked, "You should know that everything in the palace is under my control, and I have more people than yours, you will definitely lose, and I will win the volume."

Mu Chen said, "I know"

Lin Hongyue said, "But I still agreed to your request and came to a decisive battle with you, do you know why?"

Mu Chen said, "If there is any reason for you to do this at this moment, it should be Wuyi"

Lin Hongyue Huo Ran looked at Mu Chen and said, "That's right, it's just no clothes." I must thank you for not allowing her to participate in this war."

Mu Chen said, "Of course she can't participate, I won't let her get hurt a little"

Lin Hongyue said, "I don't know why Wuyi is so desperate to follow you, I'm not convinced, I want to prove that I'm better than you"

Mu Chen said, "That's why you agreed to my request for a decisive battle?"

Lin Hongyue said, "Not bad"

Mu Chen said: "I can't imagine that in addition to hegemony in your heart, there is actually a woman." So which of you do you think will make it back alive?"

Lin Hongyue sneered, "Do you think you can have a chance to win me?"

Mu Chen sighed, "You must have won just now, but now ......"

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps and bowstrings and arrows from the bottom of the castle.

Lin Hongyue looked over and saw that the city tower was crowded with people and the torches were bright. A group of people in civilian clothes are drawing bows and arrows, looking at the castle tower in a neat line. Although they wore plain uniforms, they could not hide the momentum of their professional army.

One of the crowd was riding a horse and looking into the tower. This person is the concubine of the Western Dynasty who inherited the title of King Guanghuai of the Western Dynasty not long ago, Shen Qifeng. It was also the envoy sent by the Western Dynasty to congratulate the ceremony.

Lin Hongyue looked at Mu Chen coldly and said, "It turns out that you have been prepared"

Mu Chen smiled, "I understand the truth of eating a trench and growing wise", his smile was full of confidence, as if he had won the battle.

Lin Hongyue sneered, "You're not afraid that I'll kill you?"

Mu Chen said, "I know I can't beat you, and I also know that you have a way to notify others to save you, but I have already told them that if we fight, the people outside will fire thousands of arrows, and then burn down the city tower, and you and I will die together."

Lin Hongyue originally wanted to use Mu Chen as a hostage threat, but when she heard him say this, she didn't know what to do.

Mu Chendao: "Of course, there is a second option"

Lin Hongyue immediately said, "What?"

Mu Chen said, "That is, if you go out with me, we will all be safe and sound"

Lin Hongyue said, "It's that simple?"

Mu Chen said, "Not bad. The guards in the palace were stunned by me, I know the amount of medicine, now they should also wake up and surround your men, let's go out together, I can promise to let them go, but you also have to leave the palace, otherwise you should know what it's like to have a broken tail"

Lin Hongyue sneered, "Mu Chen, Mu Chen, I didn't expect that I really underestimated you."

The wind and snow were mixed, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the cold wind blew the snowflakes and slapped on Shen Qifeng's face, and the chill was particularly biting.

Suddenly, he saw someone coming down from the tower.

Seeing Mu Chen and Lin Hongyue walking down together, Shen Qifeng walked over with a smile, put on a velvet coat for Mu Chen, and said, "Mu Chen, are you okay?"

Mu Chen shook his head.

In an instant, all the bows and arrows were aimed at Lin Hongyue.

Lin Hongyue looked at Mu Chen.

Muchen said, "Let him go"

Shen Qifeng knew what Mu Chen meant, so he said, "Put down the bow and arrow, let him go"

Lin Hongyue was about to leave, when Mu Chen suddenly stopped him.

"Sect Master Lin, I know you must hate me now, but I have something to say."

Lin Hongyue turned around and waited for him to say.

Mu Chen said: "I know that in addition to hegemony, your heart also has the feelings of children. But you should know that if hegemony and children's emotions are different, then they cannot end up together. Thank you today, the road ahead is still rugged, although you and I can be called confidants, but we are by no means people on the same road, I hope you will be cautious. With that, he bowed his hand.

Lin Hongyue felt a lot after hearing this, and respectfully faced Mu Chen, and returned the salute. Then he turned away and disappeared into the snow.

Shen Qifeng said, "Brother Mu, just let him go?"

Mu Chen said, "I promised him to let him go"

Shen Qifeng said, "Brother Mu is still smart, I have long expected that he will definitely come here with you, let us set up an ambush here"

Mu Chen smiled slightly, and said, "He's just one step less."

In fact, Mu Chen counted two more steps than Lin Hongyue, Mu Chen not only calculated that Lin Hongyue would definitely come to the city tower to fight a decisive battle, but also calculated that Lin Hongyue's hegemony had not been successful, and he would never be willing to die with Mu Chen here, so Lin Hongyue had no choice but to save his life.

It is precisely because of these two steps that Mu Chen can be one step faster than Lin Hongyue, and Mu Chen can save his life. The blood of the killing can be spared.

Shen Qifeng said, "Brother Mu, what's next?"

Mu Chen said, "You take the soldiers back, this is the northern capital, and the soldiers of the Western Dynasty here may cause conflicts between the two countries"

Shen Qifeng said, "What about you?"

Mu Chen said, "I'll go back to the palace"

Shen Qifeng said, "Isn't the matter solved?"

Mu Chen borrowed Shen Qifeng's horse, sat on the saddle, and said, "Lin Hongyue's matter has been solved, but the matter of the Northern Dynasty has not been resolved."

Shen Qifeng sent a horsewhip and said, "What else is going on in the Northern Dynasty?"

Mu Chen took the horsewhip and said with a smile, "After tonight, maybe it's a new day"

So saying, he took the reins, turned the horse's head, and raised his whip, and the horse neighed and whistled away.

A man and a horse, galloping in the cold wind and snow, disappeared into the vast darkness.
