Mo Chang still sat firmly in his original place, but tore off that gentle disguise. - The crown prince of Chengguo, who can go into battle to kill the enemy, and the commander who almost left Liguo helpless - he is not a gentle person in the first place.

Most of his disguises were for Hou Cong.

Now, he is tired, not to mention, he and Hou Cong are going to cooperate.

It must have been a short-lived collaboration.

But he was eager to try it because they admired and feared each other so much. What a pity if you don't cooperate once from beginning to end.

"Captain Heba, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of your country, what is the instruction to you?"

"Kill General Xiaohou."

Bai Yi was more surprised than Hou Cong himself and Mo Chang.

"What about the specific plan?"

He Bachun shook his head, "Your Highness said that it is naturally not easy to let General Xiaohou die. Not only is the general himself strong in martial arts, but the team is full of generals. We only need to know the goal, and the rest is at the mercy of Andu Lee's arrangement. My own determination is that as long as I am present, I will definitely block the sword for General Xiaohou," he looked at Hou Cong, "Then, even if I am besieged or fall into a trap, as long as I die, let me react in time, maybe there is a glimmer of hope for survival." ”

He Bachun looked at the white clothes again, revealing a sad smile, "In this way, it is the substitute for the deceased of His Royal Highness King Yangxian, and I am General Xiaohou." It's just that it was sealed by the emperor, and I sealed it myself. Well, the crazy person is still me. ”

Hou Cong was not interested in thinking about these anymore, he inserted his sword back, turned around and sat next to Mo Chang, "Prince, why did you kill me?" ”

A huge dark cloud enveloped Hou Cong's heart, as if he had been abandoned in the misty wilderness, and he was in a trance for a while.

He Bachun shook his head, Mo Chang was already in a state of confidence, and he helped Hou Cong sort it out: "The general system of the Eight Great Pillar States of your country, inheriting the Ping Dynasty, is quite inconsistent with the current situation. I have heard many times that the emperor's attitude on this matter is steady, and I feel that it must be changed slowly. As for the crown prince, he seems to be very dissatisfied, thinking that the imperial power is constrained and must destroy the system drastically. Could it be that it is borrowed from the matter on the road to take the Hou family first? ”

Hou Cong looked at Mo Chang and agreed with him, "Indeed." Although Captain Heba is not the head of the Hebal family, after participating in this operation, the Hebal family and my Hou family have a feud after all. The Chang family is finished, and the Eight Great Pillar Kingdoms have gone to three. ”

"I don't agree." Bai Yi walked up to the two men, "I don't think that's the reason. ”

Including He Bachun, they were all surprised by Bai Yi's words. Hou Cong said softly, "The two of you have been standing for a long time, now is not the time to pretend, sit down first, and then talk." ”

He Bachun took a chair for himself and Bai Yi and put it in front of Hou Cong and Mo Chang. Bai Yi reminded Hou Cong of the prophecy that the emperor mentioned before they left: "The three true dragons will usher in the unification of the world with death, remember?" Even my grandfather knew Mr. Water Dragon's prophecy, remember? Let's not discuss whether the prophecy is nonsense for the time being, why does the emperor care so much? So much so that you want us to meet in the secret room alone? ”

This sentence actually stopped Mo Chang and Hou Cong. Because the two of them are accustomed to careful and cautious thinking, they are so confused at this time that they can't even analyze the reason. It was He Bachun who took over the conversation: "It's very simple, no one wants to die." Especially someone like the emperor. ”

People like Yuwen Baiyi and He Bachun, who are not deeply involved in the world, want to do things simply, and it is very easy to see the most essential point.

The dark cloud was lifted a little bit. A glimmer of light shone down.

Hou Cong seemed to have a feeling of sudden enlightenment, "So it's very simple, the prince doesn't want to die." ”

Mo Chang smiled, "In the face of life and death, what the Eight Pillar Kingdom system, what maintains the imperial power, etc., must be behind. ”

Bai Yi reminded Hou Cong, "Eldest son, remember when I was a child, did I serve as a parasitic slave?" According to the legend of Datong, the imps and monsters who are going to kill are coming, and it is like falling into a maze array, and they don't know who to capture. Why, I can be a substitute for the deceased for His Royal Highness, and Ah Chun wants to be a substitute for the eldest prince, so he can't be a substitute for the crown prince? ”

"What?" Mo Chang and Hou Cong asked almost at the same time.

Bai Yi was a little anxious, killing the enemy on the battlefield and playing in officialdom were the advantages of the two men in front of them, but when others did not play their cards according to reason, they still couldn't get out of their orthodox and meticulous way of thinking.

"The eldest prince, as we just said, the emperor doesn't want to die, and the prince doesn't want to die, of course, the father and son may not be single-minded, and the ways they think of to avoid their own death are different. The emperor asked us to investigate the prophecy-related matters, the crown prince, maybe he just wants to die three dragons early to replace himself, what's so difficult to understand? ”

"But I'm not a dragon, Mo Chang in front of me is a dragon."

"Forgot? What did the third princess say in front of the palace gate that day? ”

Yes, a tiny detail - the emperor blamed Hou Cong for all this because Mo Chang connived at Luo Wei's "assassination" of himself, and wanted to disband the southbound escort led by Hou Cong. Bai Yi once accompanied the third princess to confess and plead in front of the palace gate. The third princess came to visit Hou Cong, who had been in love for a long time, and mentioned a sentence: The prince came forward to change Hou Cong's surname to Chen.

Liguo, Chengguo, won the country in the Ping Dynasty, and the surname of the Emperor of the Ping Dynasty was Chen. The ancestors of the Hou clan in Hou Cong's family followed the ancestors of the current emperor to raise troops, and their relationship with each other was that of distant brothers.

However, there is indeed a rumor: Hou Cong's ancestor's biological mother served the emperor of the Ping Dynasty. Therefore, this Hou family is the bloodline of the royal family of the Ping Dynasty.

Hou Cong's face darkened, "Nonsense." ”

Mo Chang shook his head, "I don't think so. If the crown prince really uses the idea of substituting the dead and offering himself to heaven on his behalf, there must be evidence. Otherwise, death is also in vain. In addition, and Bai Yi, he has always been entangled by the saying that the dragon is full of moonlight flowers. Are we wrong? We always thought that it was a rumor that the people of the Chang family wanted to stumble on the Hou family, but what if it wasn't? If not a rumor, then what? If it's a rumor, then why spread it? The people of the Chang family are all dead, who still takes it out every day and talks about it? And in September two years ago, what was the so-called assassination of Hou Qian? Why was there such a painting before that, and why was it pulling me in? ”

Hou Cong glanced at him, "I think Your Highness is very happy." ”

Mo Chang looked at Hou Cong and then at Bai Yi, "If fate has to pull me and you together, I have no other way but to be happy." ”

Hou Cong didn't want to laugh, but the corners of his mouth had already risen, and the current situation was as tense and fun as before he went to the battlefield to charge. He asked Mo Chang in an almost teasing tone, "Then, please ask Your Highness to give orders on the matter of cooperation, and we will listen to you." ”

When Bai Yi and He Bachun heard this, they also looked at Mo Chang. The command was put in Mo Chang's hands.

Because, the others are speculation, but Mo Chang is indeed a "dragon", and there are more people who want to kill him.

Mo Chang didn't shirk anything, "First of all, General Xiaohou's original plan is still feasible - Ling Xiao Bixiao's identity is the original maid of the third princess, and she must have been involved with the crown prince, and she is currently my roommate." continue to oppress and oppress them, with their hearts, they will definitely climb the people who are involved. Hou Qian's people, for the sake of their own plans, will definitely not ignore it. So, what do you do? Captain Hebal, please pay attention. We can do something about it. ”

"Yes." He Bachun agreed.

"Secondly, the madwoman and the painting, since they are placed on the bright side, then everyone should check them on the bright side. You can't just leave it alone, right? ”

Hou Cong smiled extremely gently now, and looked at Mo Chang very pleasantly, "Hmm." And the third? ”

Mo Chang himself smiled, "The third is later, but I always feel that the most fun thing in my plan is to fake death, why not play it once?" The premise is that we need to know where and how Ang Lee wants us to die, so that we can cooperate. And the premise of all this is to understand the prophecy and the painting that appeared too soon. So, wait. Jia Fang, these people, must have checked before leaving? ”

"Yes."

"It's not enough, we have to continue to investigate."

Hou Cong stood up with a smile, "It's very annoying—okay, just listen." ”

He opened the door and asked Dugu to find someone to announce that he would stay in Xiangmo Town for one more day, and Ming'er would not leave. Whether it is the day after tomorrow or not, waiting for the notice.

Dugu was taking the order and leaving, Hou Cong looked at the leak in the room, "Baiyi, the time on duty is over, go out with me." ”

As he spoke, he didn't wait for Bai Yi to answer, took Bai Yi's hand and walked towards the stairs. The white clothes wanted to retract their hands, but they were held tighter, and soldiers passed by one after another to watch them.

"Eldest son, I'm sick again, what should I do?"

He looked at her as he walked, "There's an account to settle, lady." ”
