"Have you sent someone to investigate?"

Tuoba Jiuxiao's face sank like water, and he asked in a cold voice.

"The people sent by his subordinates to investigate have returned, and if nothing happens, the 20,000 troops sent by the military division will arrive in less than an hour, so the prince can rest assured."

Murray replied.

"The person sent to Sinan to investigate Amolee, is there any news?"

He asked again.

Murray wanted to speak again and again, hesitated for a moment, and finally said:

"Back to the prince, the spy said that because King Sinan was seriously ill, Amoli returned to Jiyuan not long ago, and it is said that he returned from Taoyuan Town."

Murray's voice grew smaller and smaller, sounding a little timid.

"Taoyuan Town?"

Sure enough, Tuoba Jiuxiao is very sensitive to these words, that is where Amoli said, his people did not find any trace of Lin Ling'er there, but Amoli stayed there, whether Amory's words are true or false, it seems that only he went to ask in person.

"Let's go down."

He said lightly.

Murray knew that because of Lin Ling'er's matter, the prince was in a bad mood, but he was in a good mood, because Tuoba Jiuxiao seemed to be getting closer and closer to the day of ascending the throne and becoming king.

At this time, Tuoba Jiuxiao is full of mixed feelings, it is impossible for people to only have love in their lives, everyone also needs family affection and friendship, life can be regarded as successful and complete, and he is the same, unless it is absolutely necessary, he will not be an enemy of Mu Guxiong.

If it was reasonable, he was even willing to give up a qiē and go alone to find Lin Ling'er's mother and daughter, and then retreat to the countryside with them.

He looked at the gate of Kundu for a long time, and it was not until the 20,000 troops arrived at the camp and settled down that he withdrew his gaze, but his chest was inexplicably suffocated.

As soon as he turned around, his extremely sensitive hearing incorporated a string of horses' hooves into his eardrums, and when he listened closely, the sound of horses' hooves seemed to be coming in his direction, and he couldn't help but stop.

When he turned again, a sharp arrow grazed his ear, and with a "stab" "stab" sliced open the tent and nailed it to the table leg inside.

The sound of horses' hooves faded away, and it seemed that this person had come to deliver the letter on purpose.

He returned to the tent, pulled out the arrow, took off the letter from it, and unfolded it with only four words: "Thou shalt not enter the palace."

This handwriting was familiar to him, and he recognized it as belonging to Mu Tianning at a glance.

"Don't enter the palace", he chewed on the meaning of these four words, at such a critical moment, Mu Tianning sent someone to send such a letter, there must be a mystery in it.

Presumably, he should have prepared for the worst.

It's just that he didn't expect Mu Tianning to actually send him a letter, he held the note tightly in his hand and smiled.

Following.

It's obviously a good day and a good hour, but this weather is against people, as if it has predicted something, and it is terrifyingly gloomy.

Yesterday, Mu Guxiong had already sent someone to read out the holy decree, and he would personally greet the victory of the Hades army outside the East City Gate today, Tuoba Jiuxiao had already made preparations, maybe today was the last time he and Mu Guxiong met.

At the end of the day, the east gate opened on time, and Mu Guxiong rode his horse under the support of the ministers, and the nine crowns on his head kept swinging, and the white jade beads on it collided with each other to make a crisp sound.

Behind him was an endless army, which seemed to be prepared.

Tuoba Jiuxiao is still dressed in silver armor, silver boots, and silver hair, looking like a statue of a god emitting silver light from a distance, which makes people's hearts palpitate.

Behind him, countless soldiers were densely arranged in a neat line, and compared to Mu Guxiong's gorgeous soldiers, his soldiers seemed to be more combat-ready.

Seeing Mu Guxiong appear outside the city gate, he hurriedly got off the horse and led everyone to bow down, showing deference between his words and deeds.

However, under the calm sea, there is always a turbulent undercurrent, and the more invisible it is, the more menacing it is.

After some greetings, Mu Guxiong invited Tuoba Jiuxiao to the palace to listen to the seal, saying that he wanted to give him a knighthood and make him a first-grade holy prince, which is second only to the prince of the regent, which is already a high reward.

Who would have thought, Tuoba Jiuxiao just smiled indifferently after hearing it, if he really wanted to seal it, why not announce it now, why did he have to enter the palace to announce it?

He secretly glanced at Mu Tianning, who was accompanying him, only to see that Mu Tianning was also looking at him intently, shaking his head invisibly, signaling that he couldn't go.

With just one action, he knew that the note must have been sent by Mu Tianning.

"The lord of the country, whether to add officials to knighthood is secondary to the ministers."

His expression was indifferent, and he didn't express the slightest joy at all, you know, it is rare in history to receive such an honor.

Mu Guxiong was unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't show any flaws, he just pretended not to care, and asked with a smile:

"Oh? So what is important to Hades? ”

I haven't seen each other for nearly a year, but I didn't expect the two grandparents to be so estranged when they met again, where did the strong family affection between each other run away?

Maybe since the day he set out on the expedition, Mu Guxiong had planned this day, even if he couldn't find Lin Ling'er's fault, he would find a way to trick her into the palace, and then he wouldn't believe that Tuoba Jiuxiao would abandon his wife and daughter to oppose him, and now Lin Ling'er's whereabouts are unknown, which he never expected, no one thought that she would escape from Wani quietly, and there was no news.

However, the outcome of the matter will not change because of Lin Ling'er's disappearance, and he can't use her to let Tuoba Jiuxiao enter the palace, so he thinks of another way, in short, this person can't stay anymore, even if he can stay, he can no longer be used.

This is the sorrow of being born in the emperor's family, brothers and fathers can still kill each other, let alone a relative?

Tuoba Jiuxiao looked at Mu Guxiong, and suddenly became stern:

"The minister heard that the lord of the country wanted to arrest Lin Ling'er, but the minister didn't understand, which law did Ling'er break that would make the lord of the country so aggressive?"

Mu Guxiong's face darkened, he clearly ordered someone to block the news from Tuoba Jiuxiao about this matter, how could he know?

The suspicious gaze couldn't help but fall on Mu Tianning's face, and Mu Tianning shook his head to show his innocence.

Mu Guxiong's eyes changed, and he suddenly smiled:

"It turns out that Hades already knows. Now that you know, there is no need for Lone to hide it anymore, that's right, Lin Ling'er was indeed arrested by Lone, and at the same time, your daughter, Tuoba Lingxi, was arrested. ”

He was smiling all the time, and when he said this, he didn't have the slightest weakness in his heart, and he couldn't help but make everyone stunned, including Tuoba Jiuxiao.

Because, the lord of the kingdom has lied!

Tuoba Jiuxiao's eyes tightened, locked on Mu Guxiong's face, he had followed him for so many years, and he had never felt his cunning, treacherous, and ruthless like now.

Fearing that he would be fooled, Murray hurried close and whispered in his ear:

"Lord Wang, don't listen to him, Master Ling'er has not been arrested, think about it, if you are really arrested, how can Amory send you those things?"

Tuoba Jiuxiao must admit that Mu Guxiong's words made him waver, if Lin Ling'er was really in his hands, he would exchange their mother and daughter back no matter what the price was, but if they were not there......

He set his eyes on Mu Tianning again, hoping to get an answer from him, this time, I don't know if he will help him.

Mu Tianning did not disappoint him, for fear of being discovered, he stroked his neck, shook it for a long time, it looked like his neck hurt, but in fact, it was no different from shaking his head, this is to tell Sù Tuoba Jiuxiao, Lin Ling'er was not arrested, Mu Guxiong was lying.

Mu Guxiong narrowed his eyes, and through the narrow slit, his deep eyes were difficult to distinguish:

"As for what law they have broken...... Lone also wanted to ask the Hades King about this matter, did the Hades know that Lin Ling'er was proficient in disguise techniques? ”

"Transfiguration?"

Tuoba Jiuxiao asked rhetorically, full of surprise.

Mu Guxiong smiled:

"It seems that the Hades King doesn't know that Lin Ling'er was disguised as Yun Chengcheng at the beginning, replacing Yun Chengcheng and the Hades King, and later the matter was revealed, such a crime of bullying the king, Lone must not condone it, the Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, let alone an insignificant woman? However, this woman is also smart, she has deceived so many people, and she has given birth to a daughter with Hades, which is really not simple. ”

Tuoba Jiuxiao laughed secretly in his heart, the so-called Jun Wu jokes did not seem to be applicable to Mu Guxiong, in order to catch him all, he told a lie with ease, it was really rare to see it.

He smiled calmly:

"It turns out that Lin Ling'er is so hateful, and the minister was deceived by her so hard! It's just that I don't know how the lord of the country knows that she knows how to disguise? How did such a secret matter come to light? Has the lord of the country investigated the truth or falsehood, maybe she was wronged? ”

"Wronged? It can't be, there is all the evidence, and the person who told the lonely has already mentioned that your daughter Tuoba Lingxi is the best evidence. ”

Hearing Mu Guxiong say so calmly and surely, he knew that this matter could indeed not be concealed.

"The minister really wants to know, who told the lord of the country about her?"

A gleam flashed in Mu Guxiong's eyes:

"Lone promised this person to keep it secret for her, and you have no jokes."

His chest was a little suffocated, and if he knew who it was, he wouldn't let this person go!

At this time, he could only nod and say:

"In that case, I wonder what the lord of the country plans to do with her?"

"What to do?"

His reaction surprised Mu Guxiong,

"Doesn't Hades want to see the woman you love first?"

If he wants to see it, he will inevitably enter the palace, and as long as he enters the palace, he will no longer be able to escape from the palm of his hand, so he lied and lured the enemy deep, which is now the most important thing.

At this point, he has understood Mu Guxiong's intentions, and also understands Mu Tianning's intentions, although he is only twenty-two years old, he is already a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and this kind of carving insect skills is really not enough to worry about.

Compared with Mu Guxiong's cunning, he came more directly:

"Doesn't the lord of the country want to get the country of Daegu than to see her?"

Such a single knife went straight in, which caught Mu Guxiong a little off guard, if Tuoba Jiuxiao knew that Lin Ling'er was not in his hands, not only would he make a big joke, but it didn't seem to work if he wanted to catch a turtle in the urn.
