What can a five-year-old child do, who is not as strong as an adult, who is not as tall as an adult, whose voice is not as loud as an adult, and who is not even as knowledgeable as a normal adult?

The only way to take advantage of the situation is to take advantage of

Tuoba Huang clearly knew that these adults would respect him, but not him. Just like his wise and martial father, not everyone in the court believes in him.

If it was his father sitting on the throne this time, then what the group should be discussing now should be who will lead the troops to the battle, or the specific preparations for the father to lead the troops to the battle.

Others are small-spoken, and they can only find someone who is not afraid of offending people to protect themselves, so that they can slowly listen to everyone's opinions.

He learned from his father's side that when everyone was talking, you couldn't hear anything useful, and for everyone to hear you, everyone else needed to shut up.

Perhaps it was because he was so young that he could make such a decision, or maybe many people thought that something happened to his father and maybe he was the future king, most of the courtiers immediately stopped their discussions and turned their eyes to themselves in the palace, with all kinds of scrutiny.

Tuoba Huang took a deep breath and looked at the Empress Dowager Dou beside him.

She made an approving look at him, not even meaning to speak now, and relinquished all the control to him.

This is the result of Xianbei's "mother", the Empress Dowager Dou is not the real Empress Dowager after all, once the prince expresses his willingness to participate in politics, most of the Empress Dowager will retreat into the background, even if the prince is just an ignorant child.

"Report! The Rouran people have already attacked Tuqi Mountain and are stationed near Tuqi Mountain. The people along the way suffered heavy casualties, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses were plundered! ”

It was the sound of hurried horses' hooves, the messenger's war report reached the hall directly, the courtiers of the Great Wei seemed to have seen the sound of killing in the distance, tens of thousands of Rouran people suddenly went south, the towns along the way were ruthlessly trampled by iron hooves, the women were lewd/humiliated, the strong men and children were taken captive, the old and weak were killed, and the cattle, sheep and horses that the herdsmen had worked hard for a year to fatten were snatched away, unable to survive this miserable winter......

"These brutes ......"

Several young generals of the Dugu family gritted their teeth, the direction of Wuchuan Town is where their territory is located, and the Wei State lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of cattle and sheep, so Tuoba Tao rewards many ministers and cronies every time they reward cattle and sheep, these cattle and sheep cannot all be sold, or eaten, most of them are bought by each family or handed over to the tribesmen for grazing, almost every big clan and military household is the same.

The biggest problem for the Rouran people to attack Wei is supply, if the supply in Rouran is still possible to get from other places, then it will be extremely difficult to get to the Wei realm, from the fact that they plundered all the way and did not save time and went directly south, it can be seen that they have no supplies.

But now that supplies have been provided, the meat-based Rouran people have obtained a large number of cattle and sheep, and it is no longer useful to clear the wilderness with strong walls.

Tuqi Mountain is only a hundred miles away from Pingcheng, Tuoba Huang's heart suddenly sounded, and his immature face also showed a thoughtful look, but in the eyes of all those who don't know why, this is like the confusion and helplessness of a child who encounters difficulties after pretending to be an adult.

For a while, many old people remembered that ten years ago, it was also like this, the first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, Rouran went south, and Tuoba Tao turned the tide.

It's just that Tuoba Huang is only five years old now, and he doesn't have the conditions to fight like his father, can a five-year-old child really reproduce the miracle of Tuoba Tao's past?

Suspicious, worried, and frightened eyes looked at Tuoba Huang, and Mu Shou, who was left behind by Tuoba Tao, was even more panicked in his heart.

His cold sweat had already soaked his back!

Because Tuoba Tao had foreseen that the Rouran people who were destroyed would take the opportunity to cause trouble, he left him 10,000 elite soldiers and arranged for him to deploy defenses along the way, so as not to be killed by the Rouran people without hindrance.

It was he who was worried about losing the opportunity to "establish a new monarch" after getting the news of Tuoba Tao's disappearance, so he hurriedly returned to Beijing.

In his heart, he didn't believe that the beaten Rouran people who couldn't recover their vitality would take the initiative to stir up trouble!

'What the hell is going to do?' ’

Mu Shou desperately thought of a way to make up for it.

'If you really let the Rouran people come in, something really happened to the prince, and His Majesty wants to come back safely, and the Qiu Muling family may be punished by the angry Majesty. But now I'm going to resist the Rouran, and 10,000 don't know if it's enough to defend against foreign enemies......

He looked at the faces in the hall, and when he saw Cui Hao's monk Liu Jie and others who were there to state their opinions, he suddenly knelt on the ground and said:

"Your Majesty is missing, His Royal Highness the Prince's identity is precious and cannot be lost, the Empress Dowager Bao still needs to assist His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in supervising the country, the minister asks His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Empress Dowager Bao to go to the Nanshan Palace for temporary refuge, and wait for our courtiers to repel foreign enemies and then return to Pingcheng!"

Mu Shou's words touched the hearts of many people, no matter how mature Tuoba Huang was, after all, he was only five years old, even if Mulan stood by his side to stand up for him, he was just a general with less than 3,000 subordinates and a humble background.

As a result, many ministers immediately prostrate down, crying and shouting begging the crown prince and the queen mother to temporarily avoid the Nanshan Palace to prevent the Rouran slaves near Pingcheng from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos.

This is indeed the most imminent crisis, just now Gao Yun and Cui Hao and others were still worried about the hundreds of thousands of Rouran households near Pingcheng who had returned from Rouran, and these were all unstable disasters.

Mu Shou and his entourage cried and shouted to "avoid trouble", Gao Yun stood up with a dark face and scolded: "The king humiliates the ministers to death!" If we really let the Rouran people fight in Pingcheng, it is our incompetence, from the founding of our country to the present, there has been no foreign invasion and retreated from the prince, do you want to destroy the foundation of my Great Wei and ruin the reputation of His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

Cui Hao also shook his hair and smiled: "Let's not say that Rouran is not good at attacking the city, even if it really attacks Pingcheng, the people in Pingcheng will kill people with one stone and one stone." Today's Pingcheng is no longer the Pingcheng of the past, and the envoy of Qiu Muling is too cringe! ”

"Cui Hao, Your Majesty has entrusted the prince to you, you should ensure the safety of the prince, how can you say such a thing! If the Rouran people really fight down, the Jingzhong army will not be able to defend the city, where can they not leave the prince an inch! Mu Shou leaned down again, knelt down and pleaded:

"The foolproof strategy is for His Royal Highness and the Queen Mother to go to Nanshan! Nanshan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, I personally led 5,000 elite soldiers to defend, even if there are really Rouran people to attack Pingcheng, you can also keep it safe! ”

"His Royal Highness is in charge of the country, he is the example of the country, how can he leave the palace casually!"

Gao Yun scolded.

"Look at the palace walls of our flat city! For decades, the palace wall that has not been built an inch high and can be climbed in by moving a ladder can defend anything! ”

Mu Shou's saliva squirted out, splashing far away.

"It's not as high as the walls of Begong!"

The palace was built later!

For some reason, as soon as Mu Shou's words came out, the court let out a few "poofs" out of place. This is almost a joke that Heicheng has made public, talking about the rebellion of Tuoba Shao back then, and he took a dozen people to move a ladder into the palace and killed his father Tuoba Shao.

When Tuoba Tao first ascended the throne, the country was too poor, and Rouran repeatedly violated the border, and the palace city had no time to rebuild, and only a few palaces were built, and the west palace of Helianding was expanded, which can be called the "poor and sour" palace.

Therefore, the Hanchen always did not forget to move the capital to Luoyang or Chang'an, after all, Chang'an or Luoyang at least has the atmosphere of a royal capital, and the small place of Pingcheng is too inappropriate.

After everyone sneered, Empress Dowager Dou couldn't sit still.

"Since King Yidu thinks that the palace is not grand enough, then he should remember what His Majesty once said." Empress Dowager Dou stood up and said loudly: "The city wall of the ten thousand cities of the Xia Kingdom is towering into the sky, the summer palace is extremely magnificent, Helian Bobo built the city with steamed earth, killed countless craftsmen, the city wall of the Xia king's capital is as solid as iron and stone, and the wall of the palace is several feet high, but it is still destroyed by our country, the question is not whether the city wall is strong or not......

"The Queen Mother's Wise ......"

Cui Hao sighed and nodded.

Empress Dowager Dou looked directly at Mu Shou and spoke word by word.

"King Yidu, defending your home and country is only in the hearts of the people, not in danger."

Mu Shou knew that the queen mother had a tiger talisman in her hand, but he didn't know how many people could still use it in the capital, and he expected that the number of people would not be too many, which incited everyone to oppose the prince's stay in the palace.

"This time and that time. If His Majesty was here, the minister would never propose such a proposal, and the minister would even go into battle with His Majesty, but now that His Majesty is missing, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the current prince, the future Great Khan......"

"So, after all, is it because I'm young?"

Tuoba shook his body and his face flushed.

Tuoba Huang's crisp children's voice sounded so suddenly, he barely made a sound before, just stood there listening to the advice of the ministers headed by Mu Shou, and now he heard that Mu Shou almost exaggerated the crisis of Wei with Tuoba Tao's disappearance, and he screamed on the spot.

Gao Yun saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was out of shape, showing a somewhat surprised expression, and was about to step forward to appease, but saw Tuoba Huang actually pull out a dagger from his arms and raise it high!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Oh my God! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not be reckless! ”

"Who gave His Highness the blade! Damn it! ”

He Mulan was the closest, and seeing that the situation was developing so strangely, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Tuoba Huang from swinging his weapon and hurting himself, but saw Tuoba Huang pointing the dagger down and stabbing it sideways on top of the dragon case.

The dagger is an excellent dagger, sinking into the wood, as if it had melted into a dragon case. Tuoba Huang, who was holding the dagger, trembled with excitement and shouted:

"My father has always charged into battle, risking arrows and stones, and this is how my Tuoba family has conquered the world! As a descendant of Tuoba Xianbei, how can I disgrace my ancestors! Whoever wants to build a new YÌ I retreat to Nanshan, either wait for me to wipe my neck with a dagger, or I will simply wipe my neck here! ”

"I've made up my mind."

He looked around at the panicked ministers in the hall and took a deep breath.

"If you don't want me to die, think about how to keep foreign enemies out of the country!"

He Mulan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the five-year-old child in surprise, and wonder crept into his heart.

At the same time, I don't know how many are as frightened and frightened as her.

It is rare for a five-year-old child to be able to speak in an orderly manner, let alone have such a decision, ordinary children encounter this kind of thing, even if they don't cry, they are anxious to discuss with adults how to run.

Mu Shou probably also felt that with the age of the prince, he would definitely not dare to stay in the palace at this time, so he openly and secretly pointed out that it was not safe in the palace, and wanted Tuoba Huang to say that he wanted to leave.

He Mulan knew that children in ancient times were precocious, but he didn't know that they could be so precocious. Thinking about Mulan's stupid brother, thinking about Shan Zhuo, who was older than the crown prince, He Mulan couldn't help but shake his head.

It's really more human than human, more dead than dead, goods more than goods, and goods have to be thrown away.

Mu Shou's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and the whole person trembled with anger.

This five-year-old doll is slapping him in the face!

Because Tuoba Huang is so good, many ministers don't think it's his own idea, and then think of Tuoba Huang who summoned Cui Hao and Hua Mulan to discuss before Tuoba Huang came, and Gao Yun and a cadre of the East Palace ministers were there, many ministers silently wondered if Tuoba Huang had already received the news of His Majesty's disappearance and Rouran's southward departure, and had been prepared to deal with it in private with the Queen Mother, Cui Hao and other important ministers, this court discussion was just a show.

Thinking that this qiē was arranged by Tuoba Huang in advance, maybe what he said and did was rehearsed countless times, and the fear of Tuoba Huang's "wisdom" in these people's hearts disappeared a lot, but even so, their gaze at Tuoba Huang became more intriguing.

"The ministers will swear to protect the safety of His Highness!" The allegiance is to Tuoba Xianbei's royal family, Chen Liuwang Tuoba Chong.

"As long as the minister does not die, His Royal Highness will be safe!"

"The minister asks for orders to lead the army to Tuqi Mountain!"

"The last general, please die!"

"Defend the palace!"

All of a sudden, the voice of loyalty kept coming out, the Empress Dowager Dou had a smile on her face, and seeing the sudden shock of morale, Cui Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The future is terrifying", but he knew that he didn't teach the prince this, he just thought that the Empress Dowager Dou taught it.

Empress Dowager Dou thought that it was Cui Hao and Gao Yunjiao, and had already made up her mind to reward them when the enemy retreated, and they had already known about Tuoba Tao's disappearance, but they had been covering it and not saying it, King Leping was worried about taking responsibility, and there might be too many people to hide it, so the news of Tuoba Tao's disappearance came out, which made Jingzhong fall into passivity.

If it weren't for Tuoba Huang's calmness today, a catastrophe would be in front of him!

Hearing that the generals were asking for battle, He Mulan's heart was also ready to move. From Hua Mulan in the previous life to He Mulan in the present life, resisting the Rouran people seems to have become instinctive, and once they hear that they want to defend Rouran, they immediately have the idea of not giving in.

Most of the people who asked to fight were noble generals, and He Mullan knew that he was not enough to be the commander, and it was impossible to compete with them for the position of commander, so he could only look at Tuoba Huang with his eyes, hoping that when he was the commander, he would also point himself, so that he could be a vanguard army.

Unexpectedly, when Tuoba Huang saw He Mulan's eyes asking for battle, he turned his head over and looked at the Empress Dowager Dou with a pleading look.

Empress Dowager Dou knew that the relationship between Beijing and China was complicated, and if she didn't choose well, she would offend many people, and now Tuoba Huang was in need of all the ministers, so she did not shy away from carrying the black pot of this candidate.

"You are my good sons and daughters of Great Wei! With the secretaries here, why worry about the chaos of the people? Empress Dowager Dou laughed and said: "If the Rouran people really come to the city, the old woman, I will personally wave my sword on the city wall and set an example!" ”

The ministers praised Empress Dowager Dou's bravery again and again, and continued to look at her with burning eyes.

The talisman is with her!

are waiting for her to release the military power!

Empress Dowager Dou pondered for a while, and on the spot named the eldest grandson Daosheng, who was the head of the military attaché and the general of the Zhuguo State at the time, and had twelve military merits.

The eldest grandson Daosheng is now sixty-three years old, and a few years ago he was the coach of the Western Front and followed Tuoba Tao to fight in person, and his body is very tough. But because he is old, he is not as good as other fierce generals in the pre-battle competition, and more often appears as a coach.

Tuoba Tao once commented that "wisdom is like Cui Hao, and honesty is like Taoism", he is indeed an old minister who has no selfishness, is respected by everyone and has a prominent status, so the Empress Dowager Dou is the eldest grandson Daosheng, and everyone else shuts up, thinking that he deserves his name.

"Dare to ask Your Highness, are the generals who defend Qijie Mountain and Tuqi Mountain appointed by Jingzhong, or are they hand-picked by His Highness?" The eldest grandson, Daosheng, didn't think that there was anything to worry about in the 10,000 or 20,000 Rouran people, and immediately began to perform his duties.

Tuoba Huang looked at Cui Hao: "What does Cui Taichang think?" ”

Cui Hao has been with the army many times, is Tuoba Tao's military adviser think tank, this time Tuoba Tao did not take him with Gu Bi, he knew that there must be some other reason, at this time it is the time when he needs to cooperate with the eldest grandson Daosheng, and he is willing to show goodwill: "The general has been in the army for more than 40 years, and he knows the situation in the army best, even if it is assigned by His Royal Highness, it is necessary to ask for his opinion." In my opinion, it would be better for General Changsun to point out. ”

Taka Huang nodded.

"Since even Cui Taichang said so, then ask the eldest grandson Sikong to accept his fate in the palace."

All the generals in Beijing are here.

The eldest grandson Daosheng was already thinking about the candidate in his heart, and when he heard that Tuoba Huang had given him power, he immediately nodded in court: "Changle King Ji Jing!" ”

Ji Jing heard that he was pointed, and stood up happily.

"In!"

He is the son of Tuoba Tao's aunt Princess Huayin, Princess Huayin and the heir of the first emperor Tuoba have the same mother, and their status and family are extremely prominent.

"Jianning King Tuoba Chong!"

"In!"

Tuoba Chong is the son of King Chenliu, not the heir of the first emperor, but among the clansmen left in Beijing, he is the most capable of fighting, and in the prime of life, he was ordered to fight, and the clan was also very satisfied.

When it came to the last general, the eyes of the eldest grandson Daosheng swept over the generals in the palace, and began to think about which Xianbei nobleman to send.

No matter who is chosen, no one else will be convinced, and then his door will be broken down, unless it is a ...... who will not be disputed

He looked at the Dugu family, then at the He Lai family and the Wei Chi family, and finally turned his eyes to He Mulan, who was standing like a green pine under the crown prince.

'Hua Mulan and the young son of the Dugu family are friends, and they are valued by the Helai family, I heard that the daughter of the Wei Chi family is arguing every day that Mulan will not marry......

The veteran muttered in his heart for a while, and then said:

"Mulan......

As soon as He Mulan heard that it was him, he immediately became happy, and was about to call "yes", but was choked in his throat by the voice of the person behind him.

"Others can, but Mulan can't!"

Tuoba Huang shook his head suddenly, stopping the eldest grandson Daosheng from ordering He Mulan.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Hua Mulan's current military exploits are ten, most of them are fighting in Montenegro, his Tiger Ben Army is all the elite of the Montenegrin Army, and he understands the tactics of the Rouran people, so he is the most suitable candidate. The most important thing is that he once took the head of Da Tan, which has a great deterrent effect on the Rouran people! ”

The eldest grandson Daosheng intuitively felt that Mulan was the most suitable candidate.

Just now, he had already come up with the best strategy.

He was going to let Ji Jing and Jianning Wang Tuoba Chong lead their troops to copy the flanks of the Rouran people on both sides, so there must be a general in front of him to drag the commander of the Rouran people, at least so that the other party would not dare to divide the troops without authorization.

The Rouran people must not all go south, there must still be troops and the rest of the Rouran in the northern towns confronting each other, as long as the two sides are outflanked, and then the northern towns are ordered to pursue together, they can trap these Rouran people like a bag.

But precisely because the general who led his troops to resist the pass of Tuqi Mountain must not give an inch, he must be a fierce general.

However, Tuoba Huang didn't allow it!

Cui Hao and Empress Dowager Dou looked at Tuoba Huang together, and the other ministers also felt incredible.

Such a good opportunity to defend against foreign enemies and gain fame, even if the risk is great, many people will give it a go. The eldest grandson Daosheng wants to carry Mulan, this is a great opportunity, why does Tuoba Huang want to stop it?

Even He Mulan himself was stunned, not knowing what he had done wrong, which made Tuoba Huang so dissatisfied.

In the eyes of many people, this is simply the vexatious trouble of this five-year-old child!

Just because he was too much like an adult just now, many people forgot that he was just a child.

Thinking of this, several people in the temple who had other ideas in their hearts breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mulan's Tiger Army has just returned to Beijing, and it is a tired army, and I also ordered to send a lot of wine and meat to the Tiger Army, so that they can relax for a few days, and now I'm afraid I'm already drunk, I don't think I can join the battlefield right away."

Tuoba Huang is strong and reasonable.

"And his number is too small, I'm not at ease. Temporarily sent a new army to him, he has never led a new army, and it is certainly not as well commanded by the Tiger Ben army. ”

Tuoba Huang vibrates with words.

"Sikong, let's change someone."

Empress Dowager Dou was originally going to stop Tuoba Huang, but when she heard him say so much, her heart moved slightly.

This child is not a wayward child, why don't you want Mulan to leave?

What did His Majesty arrange for him before leaving?

Thinking about it this way, Empress Dowager Dou didn't want to intervene.

The eldest grandson Daosheng is an old man, seeing that the Empress Dowager Dou did not speak, and Tuoba Huang was reluctant to let Mulan go, so he thought about it and ordered Mu Shou to lead the elite soldiers to resist.

Mu Shou is also a fierce general, and there are people and horses left behind by Tuoba Tao, or the southern Xianbei Lord, he will definitely bring many civilian generals to participate in the war, if there is no name of Mulan, it is not impossible to use Mu Shou.

It's just that in this way, Mulan has no chance to show her face, and the eldest grandson Daosheng, who likes to promote the younger generations, couldn't help but glance at He Mulan with some regret.

And He Mulan stood there, receiving all kinds of gloating, regretful, thoughtful and other eyes from the ministers, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, stiffened there for a long time, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

If the Tiger Ben Army hadn't suffered heavy losses, wouldn't it be her who went this time?

If it's Tuoba Tao sitting here, isn't it her who is going this time?

Inevitably, such and such questions appeared in Hermulan's mind, and he felt a little aggrieved for a while, and he felt a little sentimental that he had no ambition and a famous sword hidden in the box.

The next court discussion is naturally to discuss the deployment of men and horses to go out tomorrow, the documents sent to the states, the war report, etc., as for the matter of Tuoba Tao's "disappearance", it seems to have been deliberately forgotten by everyone, and it was not put on the bright side, but after going down to the court, Cui Hao and more than a dozen adults were summoned by the Empress Dowager Dou and discussed in the palace behind closed doors for a long time, and then left the palace in a hurry.

At this time, He Mulan was sending him back to the East Palace at the direction of the prince.

At this time, it was already early winter, and the palace city was bleak, full of dead branches and leaves, with the atmosphere of the mountain rain coming, even the walking palace people were shrinking their necks and did not dare to squeak, looking like they wanted to fly out with wings.

He Mulan didn't know what to say to Tuoba Huang, the good atmosphere of entering the East Palace when he just practiced swords was gone, He Mulan knew that he shouldn't complain about Tuoba Huang, but because his life was approaching, he was a little unwilling to waste in Beijing.

Tuoba Huang seemed to feel Hermulan's uneasiness, and his slow steps suddenly stopped.

He doesn't like to ride in the palace, nor does he like people to carry it, but because he is too small to walk slowly, many palace people are miserable, and can only follow slowly like a turtle.

Seeing that Tuoba Huang who was walking in front of him suddenly stopped, He Mulan quickly paused and almost hit the back of the person in front of him.

"General Hua, I'm walking too slowly, I'm a little impatient, you carry me away."

Taka Huang suddenly asked.

"Yes!"

He Mulan bowed slightly, hugged Tuoba, and let him sit on his arm.

A five-year-old child, said that it is not big, but it is not small, even if an adult man has been holding it, it is very difficult, but He Mullan walks as if there is no weight on his arm, causing Tuoba to keep pinching He Mulan's arm, and let out an exclamation that is suitable for a child of his age.

"Ah, what a strong arm! General Hua looks thin, but he is actually very powerful! Where do you get all your strength, in your bones? ”

"General Hua, do you want me to wrap my arms around your neck? It's tiring to hug like this, right? I can hold your neck too! ”

"General Hua, you're so dark, isn't the sun big in the west? You see you hugging me, one black and one white, it's really interesting! ”

Tuoba Huang said a lot of words innocently, and he pinched He Mulan's body and trembled, and the latter finally couldn't help but open his mouth: "Your Highness, don't touch it anymore, it's very itchy." ”

The tone was full of "helplessness" in the face of the bear child.

She didn't like children in the first place.

"General Hua, aren't you angry?" Tuoba Huang suddenly hugged her neck and asked in her ear, "I thought you would be angry if I didn't let you go on the expedition." ”

"His Royal Highness is the prince, and if he doesn't let his ministers fight, there must be a reason for His Highness."

Hermulan replied stiffly.

"When you say that, it means you're still angry." Tuoba's soft hand suddenly pinched He Mulan's earlobe, and when he found that there was no ear piercing, he looked at it curiously.

"I really don't want to let you go......"

He lay down and whispered in Hemulan's ear: "I don't believe in many people in Pingcheng, since I was made the crown prince, many people think that they can manipulate me, and use all kinds of means to make me believe in them......"

He Mulan resisted the urge to throw the child who pinched his ears down, and said curiously when he heard the words: "With the Empress Dowager Dou protecting you, what are you worried about?" ”

Unfaithful people will not be sent to Takoba Huang at all, okay!

"I know what my father called you back for, he wants you to protect me."

‘…… And my mother. ’

Tuoba added in his heart.

"I believe that the eldest grandson Sikong will be able to drop those wriggling flowers."

He looked at He Mulan with some envy who didn't even sweat a drop, and couldn't help pinching his little muscles, remembering the words of the sword master who told him that he had no talent for martial arts.

He Mulan looked at Tuoba Huang curiously.

"You're not afraid?"

Tuoba Huang was about to stand up and say "I'm not afraid" as if he was facing the ministers upwards, but he gradually shrank in He Mulan's worried eyes and buried his face next to He Mulan's neck.

"I'd love to say I'm not afraid. But I left General Hua behind because ......"

His soft breath blew around Hemulan's neck.

"I'm scared."

He Mulan's heart softened all of a sudden.
