The general was supposed to join General Bai and retreat to Mangzhou together, but the last general sent people to search secretly for a long time, but there was no trace of the general... If the enemy is captured, the general's temperament will definitely apologize with death! In case the enemy takes him hostage! However, after the enemy army withdrew from Lingzhou, there was no major move... On the way back to Beijing from the northern front, for a whole day, there was no new military report and war horse passing by... Ah! As he spoke, Liu Jie knocked on his head fiercely, "The last general's brain is not good... I don't understand! The last general knows that this matter must have caused a big trouble to the prince! He then said earnestly, "The last general is a rough man, who only knows how to march and fight!" The prince is thoughtful, strategic, and has repeatedly made strange moves to calm down all kinds of turmoil! The last general is not talented, and now the only one who can think of asking for help from him is the prince!! ”

Qi Ming listened carefully, and there was no wave on his face...

Yan Mo squinted his eyes, and agreed with Liu Jie's idea very much in his heart! The fox's careful thinking that you don't have to be on the battlefield is really a tyrannical thing!!

"Hey..."Qi Ming saw Yan Mo's expression sideways, as if he understood the other party's thoughts, and then said to Liu Jie, "General Liu, this king can't do anything about it, he can only help you secretly send a message to your father." The king has not seen you today, so leave a secret military report, and you will go out of the city!" ”

"Lord Wang!" Liu Jie pleaded with a pleading face, "The last general is ready to die when he returns to Beijing privately!" But the front ... So many brethren! If the prince is willing to make a move, not only will the general be able to turn around, but he will also be able to repel the enemy army without spending a single soldier!! ”

"This king... It's not so powerful..."Qi Ming's tone was slightly weak, "I don't have any experience in marching and fighting...", he helped the other party up, "General Liu is loyal and brave, and he shouldn't die here." ”

Liu Jie wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it... Lingering...

"You can't, what about me?" Yan Mo stared at it for a long time, but he finally couldn't hold back, and stepped forward, and justice was awe-inspiring!

Qi Ming and Liu Jie: "!! ”

"How?" Yan Mo said provocatively, "Look down on women? ”

"The last general will not dare!" Liu Jie hurriedly answered!

"How dangerous is the front line..."Qi Ming said with a straight face and affectionate eyes, "This king is reluctant to put his concubine in danger, this matter must not be." ”

"Lord Wang." Lu Jiu stood outside the door and shouted with full anger, "The bed in the Yueming Courtyard has been repaired. ”

"......" Qi Ming understood in his heart, and said quietly on his face, "General Liu will rest for a while, this king and his concubine have something to say." With that, he led Yan Mo away, and let Qiu Bo, who was far away from the door, go in and wait.

Lu Jiu followed the prince and the princess to the Yueming Courtyard.

In the main room of the Yueming Courtyard, the prince, dressed in civilian clothes, came out of the secret passage under the bed, tidied up his clothes, and was waiting behind the screen.

When Lu Jiu saw that the masters had entered the house, he turned the wind outside the door!

"Brother Jin?" Yan Mo was slightly surprised when he saw the figure.

"Brother of the courtiers, see the royal brother." Qi Ming saluted.

The prince turned around and first glanced at Yan Mo in a complicated way, learned about the marriage fraud case, and understood Miss Jiang Er's emotional journey, and his heart became heavy again... After pondering for a moment, he said, "Brother Ming doesn't need to be polite. ”

Saying that, the three of them sat around the table, and Qi Ming took out the square fluorite in his sleeve and put it in the middle of the table.

The prince carefully pulled out a rope chain from the placket, deliberately concealed another chain with a glass ring, took out the target rope chain, and inserted the slender pendant into the perforated side of the square celestial fluorite: "On Tianmu Mountain, before leaving, the key given by the master." The clever objects of the Matanzun are indeed ingenious. ”

After the fluorite key is inserted into the right hole, the remaining five sides of the cube begin to slowly show the words, which are the words formed by the orderly assembly of the colorful fluorite fragments...

Yan Mo looked at the celestial fluorite, twisted his head and said, "Shuo, Zi, Wang, Four." ”

"The fourth prince of Shuo is out." The prince flipped the bottom side over and recited it in its entirety.

Qi Ming frowned and said, "The fourth prince of Shuo, who was named the god of war? ”

Yan Mo: "God of War? Is he powerful? ”

The prince also frowned: "How could it be him?" I heard that the fourth prince of Shuo has been seriously injured since the Battle of Mangyun River a year ago and has become a waste... Why is he still in command in this war? ”

Seeing that Yan Mo looked uncertain, Qi Ming said considerately: "The fourth prince of Shuo was born to the king of Beishuo and his queen, and it is rumored that he perfectly inherited the bloodline of the ancient divine beast Meng Ji, and was born with a red flower on his forehead, and a small horn bulge on the side of his forehead, like a ghost and god descending into the world!" The highly sought after man became the supreme commander of the Beishuo Army at a young age, winning many battles, and in less than five years, he unified the northern territory and became a legend! ”

"In that battle of Mangyun River, our army also did its best to stop the attack of Beishuo and seriously injured the fourth prince Shuoyi." The prince picked up the topic and said, "The soldiers of our army saw with their own eyes that he was hit by an oil bullet, and not only broke his customary right hand, but also broke a leg. ”

Yan Mo: "I broke a leg... Wait a minute! Li Han's magic boots! ”

"Wonder boots?" The prince had only learned about it in Qi Ming's secret letter, but had never seen it.

Qi Ming: "Brother Huang, the magic boots are an iron Karakuri similar to a prosthetic, which can be contracted into a box, or unfolded into a leg aid!" ”

The prince said clearly: "So this fourth prince of Shuo can still fight, relying on this magical boot... But his hands..."

Qi Ming: "If you want to make magic boots, you can also make magic gloves!" ”

The prince wondered, "Is it really so magical?" It's so magical that a wasted person can rejuvenate it? ”

Yan Mo stared at the Fang Ti Tian Fluorite for a while: "Speaking of magic, this thing made by the Ma Tan Venerable is not a problem!" As she spoke, she picked up the square fluorite and looked at it carefully, fiddling with the key on it, not wanting to click! The key can be turned half a turn!

The three of them were shocked at the same time!!

Prince: "In the past, the key could only be inserted, not turned..."

Yan Mo watched the words on the celestial fluorite disperse and reconverge, and said with novelty: "I think it's the Matan Venerable who has made a functional update!" ”

Qi Ming and the crown prince stepped forward in amazement...

As the new words appeared again, Yan Mo's face became heavier and heavier, his tone was cold, and he said word by word: "Longevity, life, door, secret, and technique!" ”

“！！！” Qi Ming was surprised, "Could it be that the fourth prince of Shuo can come out of the mountain again, and there is also the credit of the Immortal Gate?!" ”

"I have to go to this battle!" Yan Mo's eyes were firm, and his tone was not allowed to be rejected!

"Big boss! You're going to the Northern Front?! The prince said nervously, "No! That's the battlefield! Too dangerous!! ”

Yan Mo was silent and said, "Ten years ago, I came out of the Shura Field!" There is a clue to the Immortal Gate, I have to go!! ”

"......" When the prince heard the three words of Shurachang, the memory struck, and he suddenly felt cold, and he froze for a while before squeezing out his voice and said, "Don't... Xiao Yan'er... This palace is not allowed!! ”

Before Qi Ming could persuade Yan Mo to say a word, he found that something was wrong with the prince's state: "Brother Huang?!" ”

The prince desperately controlled his body that wanted to tremble, and his eyes moistened: "I owe the Mo family... And Brother Zi Kai...", and then his voice added a little coldness, "I can't let you get into danger anymore!" You can't go!! "The last sentence is almost commanding!!

"The things of that year are inseparable from the Immortal Gate!" Yan Mo's eyes were cold, and his tone was steady but not warm, "No matter what, I'm going to take a look!" What's more, the general is missing, the undercurrent on the front line is surging, and I have to contribute to the soldiers who are fighting! ”

“！” The prince seemed to come back to his senses a little, "... The Great General is missing?!! ”

"Brother Huang." Qi Ming observed the other party, and said in a soothing tone, "General Liu Jie is in the front hall, he secretly returned to Beijing to ask for help, to inform his younger brother that the whereabouts of the general are now unknown, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, he asked people to pretend to be the general, and blocked the news..."

The prince was surprised: "General Liu is here?!" ”

Qi Ming: "Before the imperial brother, I just arrived." ”

Prince: "Why did he ask you for help?" ”

Qi Ming: "The enemy raid went very smoothly, and he suspected that there was fraud in it, so to be on the safe side, he acted quietly... My brother was also surprised that he would choose to ask me for help..."

The prince's face became solemn again: "The general is missing... Our army does not have a commander ... Such an important thing! How can you..."

"Brother Huang, don't worry!" Qi Ming soothed, "If the enemy knows that our commander is missing, they will definitely attack in a big way!" Now it seems that the enemy army is likely not to know about it, and this matter must be notified to the emperor as soon as possible, and the long-term consideration! ”

The prince thought for a while and said, "Take Liu Jie and enter the palace immediately!" ”

Qi Ming said sadly: "Brother Huang, bring General Liu..."

The prince saw the other party's scruples, and thought: "It just so happens that the palace also came to the palace today, so he said that he came here, which is the meaning of the palace!" ”

"I'll go too." Words are indifferent.

"Xiao Yan'er..."The prince's face was full of worry, and he felt that he couldn't raise his confidence in Shangyan's resolute gaze, because he knew that he couldn't convince the other party...

"......" Qi Ming looked at the two people in front of him separately, his heart was full of worries, he knew that revenge was at stake, and Yan Mo would never compromise, "It seems that General Liu has found the right person... Since we can't stop her, let's go together. ”

“！！” The prince was surprised, "Brother Ming means that we will go to the northern line together?" ”

Qi Ming: "If the father and the emperor can agree, the crown prince's personal expedition will definitely boost morale, even if the general is really unlucky..."

"No way!" This time it was Yan Mo's turn to disagree, "Brother Jin is already weak!" How can you go to the bitter cold battlefield?! ”

"You can go as a woman..."The prince frowned slightly, and gradually gained confidence, "Why can't I go as a prince of a country?!" Then he said in a more sonorous tone, "It is my duty to defend the land and protect the people!! ”

Yan Mo: "......"

Qi Ming: "Whether it's the imperial brother or Yan'er, whether you can go to the northern line or not depends on the will of your father in the end." ”

"Without further ado!" The crown prince took the lead and said, "Enter the palace!" ”

"Brother Huang, slow down!" Qi Ming motioned to the other party with his eyes not to be impatient, and went out first and said a few words to Lu Jiu...

Lu Jiu nodded while listening: "Yes!" Subordinates understand!! ”

After half a pillar of incense, Liu Jie changed his clothes in the guest room, and came to the lobby again to wait, thinking that there was no hope for this matter, but now it seems that there is a turnaround!

"General Liu." Qi Ming led the way into the lobby.

"Lord Wang!" Liu Jie saluted respectfully. When he raised his eyes, he saw that the prince took a step out of the way, revealing the person behind him...

The guard didn't move, just raised his face slightly...

"Too..."Liu Jie was startled! Hurry up and kneel down!! Grabbed by Qi Ming with one hand!!

"Shh The guards hurriedly signaled to silence! Silently take out the props and paste that familiar mustache!

Liu Jie looked at his guard costume and finally figured out that the other party was also in disguise! It's just that... He's still playing drums in his heart, what's going on? King Yi'an and the crown prince are at odds... Why is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?

"General, please get up! Oh! The guard quickly changed his words, "Guard Liu! ”

"This..."Liu Jie's face was full of doubts, and he didn't know what to do...

Qi Ming: "When you enter the palace, the general will just go back, and the rest will be handed over to the king, let's go." ”

After a stick of incense, a group of carriages and horses came to the palace gate, and after Qi Ming showed the token, someone went to report.

In the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor was reviewing the military documents, and found that the silver in the treasury was not burning very fast... Just when he was at a loss, he heard Gonggong Liu come to report that the king of Yi'an had come to see him.

Emperor: "Ming'er? What is he doing at such a late hour? ”

Gonggong Liu: "The prince is not alone, he also brought the princess and two guards. ”

"......" The emperor still knew his second son, he waved his hand and asked Gonggong Liu to bring people in.

When King Yi'an and his entourage came to the palace, the emperor withdrew everyone and asked Gonggong Liu to control the wind outside the door.

Qi Ming and Yan Mo saluted first, and the guards followed, raising their faces and saluting.

“？” The emperor looked confused, "What's going on?" Jin'er, why are you dressed as a guard? ”

The crown prince presented the object in his hand and said: "Father, this is a secret letter from the Tianmu faction, when I went to Tianmu Mountain some time ago, my son communicated with several venerable people, asked them to pay attention to the situation on the northern front, and passed the news to Brother Ming. Erchen quietly left the palace this time, which is for this reason. The secret letter said that the four princes of Beishuo regained their mobility under the secret technique of the Changshengmen and returned to the mountain to take command. ”

"Immortal Gate?!" The emperor said in disgust, "A few years ago, they were banned!" There are still remnants?! ”

"Father," the crown prince frowned and continued, "Not only that, but something big happened at the front..."

"What's the big deal?" The emperor's face was even more ugly.

Guarding Liu received the prince's eyes, stepped forward and saluted: "The last general will see Your Majesty!" ”

The emperor fixed his eyes and saw that it was Liu Jie, who should have been on the front line!!

"Bold Liujie!" The emperor shouted, "As a general, how can you return to Beijing without an edict?!! ”

"Your Majesty! The last general is willing to receive the death penalty!! Liu Jie regarded death as if he was at home, "It is an urgent situation for the last general to return to Beijing without permission!! ”

"Father's anger!" The prince knelt down and said, "If you want to blame this matter, blame the ministers!" Previously, there were repeated changes on the northern front, and on the day of the edict to General Liu, the retainers reached a consensus with him that if there were special circumstances, they could ask King Yi'an for help! ”

The emperor stared at the crown prince for a long time, and then asked Liu Jie, "Is that really the case?" ”

Liu Jie lowered his eyes and affirmed: "Yes!" ”

The emperor squinted, looked at the two sons who were standing with their eyes down, and said to Liu Jie: "When the battle is over, I will settle accounts with you!" Anyway, what the hell is going on?! ”

Zhumen painted pillars, the wall of the deep palace building, isolated the sound of the words of several people in the hall, Liu Gonggong stood outside the door of the Qinzheng Hall and waited, looking slightly sideways, the sky has lit up a glimmer! Another sleepless night...

After a stick of incense, Qi Ming and Yan Mo waited in the side room with Liu Guard, the prince changed into court clothes and came out, the emperor with a sad face was in a yellow robe, covered his mood, put on a calm and unhurried appearance, and took a group of people to prepare to go to the court, and General Liu stayed behind.

In the Xuxiong Palace, the ministers have been waiting for a while, and they are all quietly looking at the palace door... Not long after, when the emperor brought the crown prince, King Yi'an, and Princess Yi'an into the palace together, they all became in a commotion... What's going on?

After the emperor took his seat, he closed his eyes and drove away the sleepiness, and said: "Lingzhou on the northern front was lost, and the defenders of Lingzhou were defeated to Mangzhou, losing half of their troops, Shen Shangshu, what do you do about this?" ”

Shen Shangshu came out and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has issued an order to increase the army, and the capital is limited to gathering 100,000 recruits in one day!" Waiting to be sent to the northern front! 300,000 recruits can be assembled in three days in other places! ”

Emperor: "Spread my will, these 100,000 troops will immediately set out to support the northern front!" ”

Shen Shangshu: "Yes! ”

Yun Changshi saluted, then ran out of the hall and went to the military plane!

Emperor: "Nanshu is coming, how are the military salaries prepared?" ”

Nan Shulai said: "In the past, it was not small to control the floods in Pengzhou, but now the national treasury of silver, excluding daily expenses, can barely support the northern line for more than three months." ”

The emperor was slightly surprised: "It's only been three months?!" ”

"Your Majesty forgives your sins!" Nanshu came to ask for sin, "The silver used to control the floods in Pengzhou can be returned within half a year, and I don't want the northern line..."

Emperor: "Give you five days!" Find a way to fill the treasury!! ”

"......," Nan Shulai said with difficulty, "Yes! ”

The emperor took out the square heavenly fluorite and said: "The Tianmu sent a message, and the fourth prince of Shuo is in charge!" ”

When the ministers heard this, they were all surprised, the fourth prince of Shuo was already a wasted person!!

The Emperor continued: "The witchcraft of the Immortal Sect is prevalent, and it has actually spread to the northern realm! This is the resurrection of the fourth prince of Shuo!! ”

When the ministers heard it again, they were even more surprised! The Immortal Gate is still active?!!

Yan Mo had been watching, wanting to seize a good time to ask for his life to fight, and when he heard that the Changshengmen was about to come out, the voice of a young man came from outside the hall!

"Father!" King Xing entered the palace steadily, walked with the wind, knelt in front of the hall steps and begged for his life, "Erchen is willing to go to the northern front to kill the enemy!" Defend the homeland! Meet the four princes of Nashuo for a while!! ”

"Nonsense!" The emperor was displeased, "Someone! Take the Nine Emperor Princes down! ”

"Father! The sons are just like the recruits! All fifteen years old! King Xing refused to give up and said, "Why can't you go?!" The country is in trouble, and men should charge into battle! Keep one side safe!! ”

Emperor: "You think it's a play house!" You, who have never been in a barracks, know how to march and fight? I don't even know what kind of bed they sleep in! Go down!! ”

"......" King Xing lowered his eyes and thought for a while, his face was still a little immature, and he looked up and said righteously and solemnly, "Be self-assured, bow to yourself!" Go to know when you go!! ”

"Nine Emperor Brothers!" Seeing that the emperor's face was becoming more and more ugly, the crown prince hurriedly stopped, "Your heroic feelings are already obvious to everyone!" Can the ability to march and fight in a day? If you are inexperienced, not only will you not give the battlefield a chance of victory, but you are likely to become a scruple of soldiers because of your status as a prince! ”

"Brother Prince..."King Xing felt that he had been hit at this time, and he was at a loss...

Yan Mo pursed his lips and was about to step forward, but he was gently pulled by a hand at the corner of his clothes! She looked sideways and said, "I have to go!" Then she patted the other man's palm to appease, and after dusting off the man's hand, she stood tall and prayed, "For the stability of the country!" The daughter-in-law is willing to do this! ”

Emperor and King Xing: "!! ”

The ministers were stunned! Make eye contact! Hearts overflowing!!

"Women on the battlefield? King Yi'an didn't stop him?! I really don't treat the princess as a princess! ”

"Who let this princess take the position of the princess herself! Maybe King Yi'an wants to take the opportunity to get rid of the princess so that he can marry another!! ”

"Women on the battlefield! Don't make the enemy laugh!! There has never been anything like this in ancient times!! ”

"Women on the battlefield? I'm afraid that the enemy thinks that my heavenly man is cowardly and weak!! ”

In fact, the hall is very quiet, but it seems that everyone can hear those voices, and King Xing is no exception...

Yan Mo's eyes rolled back and forth, and after feeling it for a while, his aura was released, and his voice was loud: "The woman goes to the battlefield!" It is to let the people of Beishuo take a look! Even women in the Tianyou Dynasty should not be underestimated! Not to mention a dignified man!! ”

The voice of the heart came to an abrupt end! The ministers were silent for a while, and they stopped for a moment, and someone was about to speak to admonish...

"I'm ready!" The emperor agreed!

Yan Mo and King Xing: "!! ”

Ministers: "......"

Emperor: "Princess Feng Yi'an is the overseer's pacification envoy!" Let's go! By the way, release Major General Jin from the prison, let's go together!! ”

“！！！” The prince and Qi Ming secretly glanced at each other! Against all odds!!

"......" Qi Ming didn't want to be willing in his heart, but he also had to receive the order, he frowned slightly, lowered his eyes and saluted, "Yes!" Father!! ”

"The daughter-in-law takes the order!!" Yan Mo then arched his hand!
