Ma Sheng is an understanding person, there is no need to tell him this.

Chen Mu said these words to Mar Lan.

Later, Mal Lan agreed, but she still looked a little aggrieved and staggered.

Chen Muzhen didn't understand what she was still obsessed with.

That night, Mallan remained in the palace.

Chen Mu asked Zhong Lixiang to send someone to arrange for Mar Lan to return to his original courtyard, and it is said that after Miss Ma went back, she was touched by the scene and cried.

——

Preparing to rest, Chen Mu sat in a chair wearing his underwear, and the maidservant brought a basin of water to wash the feet of King Mu.

When the army was marching and fighting, Chen Mu's life secretary was Zhang Ga, a veteran personal secretary. Now Director Zhang's status is quite detached, and there are five or six people outside, and there are two messengers around him at any time, such as serving foot washing water, it has long been his turn to do it.

Chen Mu half lay in the chair and asked the maid to pinch his feet.

The maid didn't know how to pinch, and she didn't dare to use force, so she pinched it around.

Chen Mu taught her.

The maid was clumsy and couldn't grasp the trick.

Chen Mu was quite disappointed, but he didn't reprimand the maid for this, but just asked him to carry the water down.

When washing her feet, Chen Mu joked with Zhong Lixiang, saying that the girl's feet were getting bigger and bigger.

Zhong Lixiang was indignant and ignored people.

"Miss Ma is here." Zhong Lixiang stood at the door.

"What is she doing here?" Chen Mu wondered.

"I'll ask." Zhong Lixiang strode over, said a few words, and Miss Ma walked away with a small bag on her back, walking briskly, looking very happy.

Now there is no maid by Miss Ma's side, so she can only carry a small bag by herself wherever she goes. I don't know what she has in her bag.

Chen Mu asked curiously, "Zhongli, why did you get her away, what did she do?" ”

"She said she came and waited for you to sleep. I said you don't like women. ”

“……”

Chen Mu thought for a while: "No wonder she is sluggish and squirming, it turns out that she thought that I was the secretary Lang for that." ”

After a pause, he reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about, who said I don't like women, don't spread rumors for me." ”

Zhongli smiled triumphantly and left.

——

There are still nine small kingdoms left, among which Aragorn and Huoxun have been robbed by Arandot. And Arlando's ambition is by no means limited to this, his soldiers are galloping across Dawan, Mulu, and Gumo. The Three Kingdoms were tortured by him to the bitter end.

In addition to these five small countries, there are still four small countries left: Great Qin, Yueshi, Kumi, and Broken Leaves. These four small countries are quite powerful, and each of them has an army of no less than 30,000.

Neither the Liang army nor the Hungarian army did anything against the four of them, and the four small states had also formed an alliance. Elected King Latif of the Moon Clan as the Archbishop of the United Kingdom, and led an army of 100,000 to fight to the death against the invading enemy.

The three kingdoms of Dawan, Mulu, and Gumo also formed an alliance, and they had about 50,000 or 60,000 men under their command, although they hoped to fight a decisive battle with the Huns, but Alando did not give them this opportunity.

The Hungarians were good at raiding and detouring, and they couldn't find their large troops at all. If they wanted to go to their lair, the Three Kingdoms felt that their strength was insufficient and did not dare to march, so they just waited for the Liang army to kill and fight to the Aral Sea with the Liang army.

Aragon is on the north shore of the Aral Sea, and the city of Hoxun is on the south.

"Send an envoy to see the Great Sect Leader Latif, and say that the Liang army needs to use the Broken Leaf City to help Dawan, Mulu, and Gumo eliminate the Huns." Zhao Jin, the governor's grain officer, looked indifferent, and he was the first to suggest.

Cao Sheng shook his head: "I'm afraid Latif won't agree." ”

Zhang Han was angry: "If you don't agree, you will be called." ”

The cripple waved his hand: "If you want to fight, you must wait for Zhang Yunlong's fifth division to come." Otherwise, we alone will not be able to defeat 100,000 Hu soldiers. ”

Chen Mu frowned and said, "If you wait for the Fifth Division to come over, I'm afraid it's a little too late." I'm afraid that the Three Kingdoms of Dawan won't last until then. ”

Ma Zun said lazily: "Or negotiate terms with Latif." ”

"On what terms?" Zhao Jin waved his sleeves: "If you have anything to talk about with them, either let it go or don't let it." It's easy to let this matter go, if we don't let it, we will beat it according to Zhang Han's words. How can you stop my army of tigers and wolves? ”

Chen Mu felt that Zhao Jin was a little excited, this kid was only a prince and not a general, and he always felt a little fluctuating when he spoke. His determination was worthy of recognition, but at this time, Chen Mu only had less than 20,000 soldiers in his hands, and most of them were captive soldiers, and their combat effectiveness was really not very good.

The troops that can really fight are still the lame Second Brigade and Zhang Han's Third Brigade, while Ma Zun's Second Division is more like an ornament. It's okay to take them to scare people, but if you really fight, it's a situation where you can be defeated with one blow.

"It seems that we can only wait for the Fifth Division of Xuanjia of Governor Zhang."

Chen Mu shook his head helplessly: "It's a pity that his first division has just gone through a fierce battle, otherwise it would be just right to transfer the first division." ”

Everyone was silent, and Chen Mu said again: "The envoy still has to be sent, and it will be best if it can be resolved peacefully." It would be even better if we could win over Latif to unite with us. ”

Then arrange for the envoy, and the envoy will lead the team to set off.

Chen Mu discussed privately with the cripple and Zhang Han.

The lame man said in a low mood: "The conversation just now was simply whimsical. We sent troops this time, and Steve had already seen through our intention to unify the Western Regions. In his eyes, we are all enemies, just like Alando. I'm even worried that the envoy won't be able to come back if he goes to Shattered Leaf City. ”

Chen Mu nodded.

"King Yumu, the Governor of Zhang Yunlong is less than ten miles away from Ulcheng!" Zhang Ga said.

"Zhang Yunlong is here?" Chen Mu stood up: "Let's go, go and meet." ”

——

Zhang Yunlong seemed to be a little emotional, and brought a very bad news:

"The three major lords decided to participate in the affairs of the Western Regions, and the Queen Mother couldn't stop the three of them at all. Now the heirs of the three gate lords have all rushed to the Western Regions with elite soldiers and strong generals, and when I got the news, they had already passed through Tongguan. Tang Zhen was waiting for Meng Danqing and Ximen Zhensen in Chang'an, and it was estimated that it would take less than a month to come here. ”

Chen Mu fell into deep thought.

Cao Sheng asked, "What does the Queen Mother mean?" ”

Zhang Yunlong sighed and said, "Niangniang means that we should try to take root in the Western Regions as much as possible. If the three major lords have to fight for the Western Regions, they will not hesitate to fight. But I think Niangniang is a little lacking in confidence, and we shouldn't be easy to fight. Once the Western Regions fight, the Central Plains will be in chaos. ”

Zhao Jin said discouragedly: "The Queen Mother is talking angrily again, it seems that her situation is very bad." Zhao Tong didn't support her, she still couldn't control the situation. ”

Cao Sheng asked, "How many soldiers did the three sons bring?" ”

Zhang Yunlong said: "Not much, each person only brings 10,000 troops. After all, Longyou is the territory of the Tang Clan, and in the absence of foreign enemies, how can they let their soldiers in. I heard another news that the Emperor of Heaven had improved his illness. It is said that when Xiao Xie took out a stone, he suddenly felt relaxed, and his waist and abdomen no longer hurt. ”

The crowd was skeptical.

Chen Mu suddenly smiled bitterly: "Kidney stones." ”

Cao Shengdao: "Stone gonorrhea syndrome, I've heard of it, but the Emperor of Heaven is so young, it's rare to get sick. It's out now, God bless. ”

Chen Mu rubbed his chin: "I suddenly had an idea that I could balance the three major valves. ”
