Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Outside the southern city, several carriages drove rapidly towards the south, and in the carriage, Liu Yuan's father and son sat opposite each other.

"Dad, did you really hand over the military power?" When Liu Zhi heard that his father had handed over all three million troops for him, his face changed dramatically.

"The talisman has been handed over, as long as you can come out safely, what is the old man giving the emperor a token that has no practical use." Liu Yuanhan said with a smile.

"A useless token?" Liu was stunned.

This talisman is a token of leading soldiers, how can it be a useless object.

I only heard Liu Yuan smile and said, "The soldier talisman is indeed the voucher for the transfer of troops, but there is another secret for my father, and I have never told you that the army brought by Ben Hou no longer recognizes the soldier talisman and only recognizes Ben Hou alone." ”

Liu Zhi's heart jumped, and he said in ecstasy, "I see, if the emperor knows, wouldn't he want to cure his father for the crime of bullying the king." ”

Liu Yuan glared at Liu Zhi, and said coldly, "This time Ben Hou went back, he directly raised troops, just to marry your sister to Nanshang, once the marriage is successful, Ben Hou will take down the surrounding princes in one fell swoop, and get half of the Nine Shadows with lightning speed." ”

When Liu Zhi heard about the marriage, his expression froze, "My father wants to marry my sister into Nanshang, she is still young, is this inappropriate?"

"Mei'er will be married in another year, she can get married, she can contribute to the Liu family, and it can be regarded as her father who has not raised her for so many years in vain." Liu Yuan said with a solemn face.

Liu Zhi wanted to say something, but suddenly, the voice of the guards came from outside the carriage, "Master Hou, it's not good, there is a large army from the east coming here, and there are about 20,000 of them." ”

"The Mo family?" Liu Yuan's heart was shocked, he opened the curtain and looked out, in the night sky, the eastern pieces of firelight were chasing towards the south, seeing this scene, Liu Yuan exclaimed, "Quick, go back to the camp, prepare to fight." ”

The crowd answered the promise, hurried their horses, and headed for the southern camp.

Returning to his seat, Liu Yuan's face became gloomy, "This old bastard of Moyang, he must have found out that the emperor let you go, and in the name of Qingjun, he got rid of us." ”

Liu Zhi's face fell silent, but he didn't seem too flustered, "The Mo family has 20,000 troops and horses, and my father has more than 30,000 troops, so don't worry." ”

Liu Yuan nodded approvingly, he was pleased that Liu Zhi was calm and calm, and he was also quite talented in using soldiers, and he would definitely do something in the future, so he would not be willing to surrender to the emperor like this, he was very confident in Liu Zhi, if Liu Zhi was given a chance to show his ambitions, it would not be difficult to win the Nine Shadows World

Of course, the princes of all walks of life had already discovered the actions outside the southeast city, and the other princes also went to their respective military camps late at night, deliberately bypassing the two armies, while the princes of all walks of life in the north, led by Zhang Shun of Ying Tianhou, arrived at the camp early under the instruction of the emperor, gathered fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses, and quietly went to the west.

"What does Marquis Zhang think of the emperor?" In front of the army, several figures rode on horseback, and when they approached, Wu Shen, the king of Hengshan, who had been silent and silent, finally couldn't help but ask.

In the dark night, I couldn't see Zhang Shun's expression clearly, so I saw him smile lightly and said, "Could it be that King Hengshan has any other ideas?" ”

"Zhang Hou said with a smile, I, Wu Shen, were loyal to the emperor, and now I still have the same original intention for today's saints, and heaven and earth can learn from it." Wu Shen was taken aback and hurriedly said.

"It's right that Brother Wu can think like this, the emperor treated me a lot back then, and at the court meeting, everyone saw the emperor's words and deeds, but it was as rumored?" Zhang Shun asked instead.

"Not only not, but I think the emperor is blue and mighty." One of the princes said respectfully.

The other princes nodded yes.

Zhang Shun smiled and said, "Since everyone thinks so, then what reason is there to have other thoughts, you listen to me, Ben Hou's intuition tells me that following the current emperor must be correct." ”

Everyone was stunned, Zhang Shun's deeds in the Beizhou area were quite dramatic, and his intuition was also slightly heard, as soon as he heard Zhang Shun's firm words, they fell silent, even if there was a trace of other thoughts in his heart, he was quietly extinguished.

After they passed through the court meeting, they didn't find any immorality on the emperor at all, and what reason did they have to compete with the emperor, thinking of the emperor's plan for the future in the court meeting, they all felt that the general trend of the Nine Shadows had slowly returned to orthodoxy, and there would be major events in the future.

In the palace, a figure hurriedly walked towards the Heart Cultivation Palace, and when it was close, who else could it be if it wasn't Prime Minister Li De.

When he arrived at the Yangxin Palace, under the report of Xiao Zhuangzi, Li De entered the main hall and saw Liu Xuan calmly watching the performance in front of the desk, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Pingxiang and the outer prince are going to fight." ”

After Li De heard that the emperor had released Liu Zhi on the same day, he shouted in his heart that it was not good, isn't this the best excuse for Mo Yang to raise troops?

At that moment, Li De hurried to the palace and met Liu Xuan.

Looking at Li De's slightly flustered expression, Liu Xuan smiled and said, "Li Aiqing, don't worry, I already know about this matter." ”

Li De was stunned, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the stakes are very high, and the old minister dared to ask for the Praetorian Guard Li Moshang to be sent to suppress it." ”

"Don't bother General Li, just have other princes to solve this matter, Li Aiqing will go back to sleep quietly." Liu Xuan said with a light smile.

Li De looked at Liu Xuan's calm smile, and was shocked in his heart, where did the emperor get the confidence to say such a thing, the princes of the Liu family and the Mo family were fighting outside the city, and he looked indifferent, or was everything already in his hands?

After these three days of court meeting, Li De gradually felt that he could not keep up with the emperor's train of thought, and even had the illusion of not being able to see through the emperor in a trance.

Obviously, Li De felt that Jiuyou's future was very promising, which filled his heart with expectations

Let's say that Liu Yuan and others arrived at the barracks quickly, and under the order, the 30,000 army was already waiting solemnly, and in the face of the 20,000 army coming from the east, everyone was ready to fight.

The night sky was full of stars, and Mo Yang led the army to the outside of Liu Yuan's military camp.

The two armies were facing each other, and under the illumination of the lights, the figures of the two sides were printed, and in the two armies, Mo Yang rode out of his horse, looked at Liu Yuan on the opposite side and shouted, "Hou Ye Liu, you are guilty!" ”

"Hmph, joke, the dog is justified, the emperor's will, how can you allow Mo Hou Ye to meddle in things." Liu Yuan stood up and said provocatively.

"Liu Yuan, you connived at the rebel son to bully my son, and you have to sacrifice other people's heads for today's account." After Mo Yang finished speaking, he shouted to the army: "The whole army listens to the order, and whoever takes the head of Liu Yuan's father and son will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!" ”

"Kill!" The armies immediately shouted, the two armies shouted, rushed up, for a while, shouted to kill the sky, 50,000 horses and horses melee together, the sound of weapons clashing, shouting, with blood flying, to fill the air with a layer of strong smell of blood
