557 Mixed flavors
He will choose to go out of the city, and then send someone to inform Mu Guxiong, so that the lord of the country will personally go out of the city to greet him, there are 20,000 troops behind him, even if Mu Guxiong wants to attack him, it is not so easy.
Thinking that at the beginning, in order to take revenge, he led the Wani army to go on the expedition and left Lin Ling'er's mother and daughter behind, Mu Guxiong promised to help him take care of them, and more importantly, he wanted to reassure Mu Guxiong that he would not support the army and respect himself, and would not do anything rebellious like Nangong Qingfeng.
But now, Lin Ling'er's mother and daughter have disappeared because of Mu Guxiong, and he can't count this account.
The accounts were settled, and the results changed.
"Murray, arrange for everyone in Hades' Mansion to go out of the city, and leave no one behind."
He commanded in a cold voice, as if he had foreseen something.
"Yes, Lord Wang, my subordinates will bring someone to do it!"
Murray was a little excited and happily agreed.
Everyone supports Tuoba Jiuxiao to establish himself as the king, but everyone knows his temper, he promised Mu Guxiong that he will definitely do it, and now this matter is the fuse, if he can break with Mu Guxiong because of this matter, then it is in everyone's mind, and the new King of Daegu is about to be born!
In the palace of the King of Wani, there is a news from the general who guards the city in Kundu that the Hades King has led the people to triumph!
Mu Guxiong was discussing with Mu Tianning and several important ministers, and when he heard the news, he immediately tightened his dragon eyebrows and slowly got up:
"Reliable information?"
The general of the city guarded the road:
"The Lord of the Kingdom, it is indeed reliable, the last general saw with his own eyes that the Hades led the people and horses back to the court, there are not many people, about dozens of people, and the Hades King is still wearing armor, and he looks very eager."
Seeing that Mu Guxiong's expression was not very good, one of the elderly civil officials said:
"The lord of the country, forgive the old minister, just a few days ago from Daegu news, this time the Hades went out to win a comprehensive victory, if you plan to return to the court, you should tell the lord in advance, but the Hades King did not tell today, this matter is really a little weird!"
Another humane:
"Could it be related to his concubine, the woman named Lin Ling'er?"
"That woman has committed the crime of bullying the king, even if the lord of the country sends someone to arrest her, it is reasonable, does the Hades still want to stand up for her?"
"Hades is an iron-blooded man, in addition to marrying a Cloud Fallen City, when did he ever have his heart for other women? I'm afraid that this woman is pregnant with his child, and he has no choice but to give in, right? It's just a woman, not enough to worry about. ”
"Let's not talk about women, the victory of the Hades should be a great celebration for the whole world, why did he come back secretly? Could it be that there is something unspeakable? ”
Among the different opinions, Mu Guxiong set his eyes on Mu Tianning:
"Prince, did you tell the Hades King about Lin Ling'er?"
Mu Tianning also just learned the news of the Hades King's return, and was very shocked:
"Father, son-in-law vouches for his life, no."
"No?"
Mu Guxiong's eyebrows stood up,
"Don't think that Lone doesn't know, you have been secretly investigating the whereabouts of that woman, and Lone can turn a blind eye to the matter between you, once it comes to national affairs, Lone will never tolerate it!"
Of course, Mu Tianning knew what his father meant, he was afraid that the Hades King would have a different heart and wanted to arrest Lin Ling'er, and the crime of bullying the king was probably just an excuse, and the most important thing was that he wanted to threaten Tuoba Jiuxiao with this, so that he would not dare not hand over his military power and dare not establish himself as the king.
But I didn't expect that this matter was self-defeating, not only did he not catch Lin Ling'er, but if he angered the Hades, I am afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable, Mu Guxiong lost his wife and broke his army, and used his army to help others fight the country, but in the end he didn't get anything, which is really annoying.
"Father, the son never revealed this matter to the Hades King a word, every time the Hades flying pigeon sent a letter to ask the sons about the situation of Lin Ling'er's mother and daughter, the sons reported that they were safe, and the father of the Hades Mansion has been sending people to monitor, and there is no news at all. Maybe...... Maybe Hades didn't mean to do that......"
"Not intentionally?"
Mu Guxiong was furious,
"Didn't he, as the prince of Vani, know that when he returned to the court after victory, he had to inform the lord of the kingdom in advance and obtain the consent of the lord of the kingdom before he could bring troops into the city? Secret, whatever his purpose is, it's all wrong! ”
"Lord, are you ......?"
A minister wanted to speak and stopped.
"What is it? Say! ”
Mu Guxiong reprimanded.
"Could it be that he secretly wants to arrange something?"
Mu Guxiong's eyes widened:
"He wants to support the army and respect himself, thinking that he can cover the master with high merit? He forgot who took him in, who raised him, and who helped him get revenge? ”
"Father,"
Mu Tianning was anxious,
"I haven't seen the king of Hades yet, so don't make a conclusion, maybe he is just anxious to go home to visit his wife and children, after all, Qiqi is still young, and it is understandable that he is worried. With Erchen's understanding of Hades, he is not the kind of ungrateful person, if so, he doesn't have to come back, after taking the Daegu Palace, he can be called king on the spot, why should he come back and be an enemy of his father? ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince, this time is different from the past, and the Hades King today is no longer the same person he used to be."
"Nonsense!"
Mu Tianning glared fiercely at the minister who spoke, quite angry,
"I don't know what kind of person he was back then, I only know that from childhood to adulthood, he was the person I trusted and relied on the most, if it weren't for him, there would be no Mu Tianning today, let alone His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Mu Tianning's words obviously stood in Tuoba Jiuxiao's position to speak for him, although he knew that this was against Mu Guxiong's wishes, but there was no way, even if Tuoba Jiuxiao wanted to establish himself as the king, as long as he could find Lin Ling'er, give her the best protection, and the greatest happiness, he would be satisfied.
Even if he couldn't give her this, he hoped that she could get it, get the best thing in the world, even if it was given to her by other men!
"Bastard!"
Mu Guxiong's reprimand shocked everyone to tremble,
"Without him, there would be no you? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you don't want to think about it, who gave him a qiē? At the end of the day, every qiē you have to give! Stupid, stupid! Do you want him to be an enemy of Vani when he ascends to the throne? He is the king of Hades, the first person in history to be undefeated, and once he is allowed to ascend the throne, the world will be in chaos, you know? ”
"No, he won't! He just wants to get his woman and children back, he doesn't have that much ambition! ”
Mu Tianning still firmly believes in his point of view, and more importantly, he doesn't want Tuoba Jiuxiao to have any accidents, because he has no way to explain to Lin Ling'er, let alone their seventeen-year relationship!
"Shut up!"
Mu Guxiong was furious, his son didn't speak for him, but stood in the position of others, how could he not be angry?
"Pass Gu's order, mobilize 30,000 troops to protect the palace, and transfer another 20,000 to listen to orders at any time, if Tuoba Jiuxiao dares to act rashly, Lone will not show mercy!"
"Father!"
Mu Tianning knelt down with a plop, his eyes were red,
"Don't forget, he is your own grandson, the only son of Sister Ruyan!"
Mu Guxiong walked up to him and glared at him angrily:
"I haven't forgotten it, but you also remember it to Gu, you are Gu's only son, your surname is Mu, his surname is Tuoba, you ...... Not a family! Vani Jiangshan, loneliness can only be handed over to one person, is it you, or him? ”
The last question forced Mu Tianning into a desperate situation, between Wani Jiangshan and Tuoba Jiuxiao, who would he choose?
For a man, I am afraid that nothing is more important and attractive than power, in front of power, in front of the throne, everything becomes small and low as dust.
There is no need to discuss the matter anymore, and Mu Guxiong's words decided a qiē.
Mu Tianning lowered his head and knelt listlessly in place, as if he had lost the strength of his whole body, making him the enemy of Tuoba Jiuxiao, he really couldn't do it.
Thinking back that before he left, he deliberately entrusted Lin Ling'er's mother and daughter to him, this great trust made him feel ashamed, not only did he not help him take care of their mother and daughter, but now even he ......
What should he do?
"The lord of the country, the lord of the country......"
The criminal director suddenly ran in from outside, holding a letter in his hand, looking very anxious.
"Why are you so flustered?"
Mu Guxiong was already in a bad mood, and he was even more unhappy when he saw this at this time.
The chief criminal officer knelt down, presented the letter to Mu Guxiong, and said:
"Lord of the country, the King of Hades sent someone to send a handwritten letter, asking the lord of the country to take a look."
This letter made everyone cheer up, and Mu Guxiong stared at it for a moment before taking the letter and opening it.
After reading it, he sneered:
"Hmph, the king of Hades said that he has captured more than 30 large and small cities in Daegu, and now he has returned to the court after victory, and is now stationed outside the city, waiting for the lonely summons."
Holding the letter, he continued,
"He already went into the city to inquire about the news, and then went out of the city to wait for the call, it seems that he wants to salute Lone before the soldiers?"
The civil servant who spoke first thought for a moment and said:
"Lord, the old minister has a plan, I don't know if it's feasible?"
"Speak!"
"Yes. Lin Ling'er is guilty of bullying the king, if he is investigated, the king of Hades will not be able to escape the involvement, why not the lord of the country, first lure him into the palace, and then catch the turtle in an urn, capture him for the crime of bullying the king, and then let the lord of the country dispose of it! ”
Mu Guxiong's eyes narrowed, and the corners of his lips gradually revealed a hint of a smile.
Mu Tianning's fists were secretly clenched, if he had to choose between Tuoba Jiuxiao's death and self-reliance as king, he would rather choose to let Tuoba Jiuxiao stand on his own as king than see him die in front of him.
Forgive him for not having such big ambitions, he just wants them all to live!
At night, hundreds of green tents were erected in the open space ten miles away from Kundu.
Tuoba Jiuxiao stood in front of the camp, overlooking the Kundu City Gate in the distance, and his heart was mixed.
At this time, Murray stepped forward and said:
"Lord Wang, the tent has been set up according to your instructions, and the people of the Hades Mansion have also been secretly evacuated and settled. The prince's trick is really clever, although our army did not arrive, but set up a tent in advance to confuse the truth, so that the lord of the country thinks that we brought a large group of men and horses back, so as to suppress him from not daring to act rashly, it is really wonderful. ”
