After the cane was beaten, the emperor looked at the envoy's expression and took advantage of the situation to say: "Your Excellency, I deeply regret the matter of the eldest princess of your country, I don't know if such a punishment can convince your country?" ”

The envoy's expression had changed when he looked at the emperor, although he still wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but after all, he was a defeated country, and he was embarrassed to put forward too many conditions.

"Your Majesty, this time, on behalf of the Nanyue Kingdom, I would like to thank the Emperor, and the Nanyue Kingdom and the Lanling Kingdom have been allies since then, and they have communicated with each other."

Mo Xuanyin saw that the matter was over, and he didn't breathe a sigh of relief, after all, his own thing had been completed, and the next thing was to think about leaving here with Gu Xiqian, and whatever happened to the two countries in the future had nothing to do with him.

And this result is also what he is willing to see, with the Lanling Kingdom taking the lead in surrendering, even the small countries that have formed alliances and become powerful do not dare to act rashly.

With such a one-and-done result in exchange for a military stick, Mo Xuanyin felt that he would not lose too much.

However, Mu Chuan, who was lying on the ground, did not think so, because of this battle, he not only suffered humiliation, but also did not even have the credit for winning the battle, but said a few more words and was beaten with a military stick, this thankless thing made him unwilling.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have objections."

Without waiting for Mu Chuan to continue, he saw the emperor glaring at Mu Chuan fiercely.

Looking at the smug envoy on the side, Mu Chuan immediately changed his words, "Your Majesty, according to the minister's humble opinion, the soldiers of Lanling Kingdom were defeated, and it was inevitable that they would be a little unwilling, and when they went back, no one would make up some settling-in expenses, so as to show that the emperor was benevolent." ”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and then arranged a banquet to replace the envoy.

And Mo Xuanyin and Mu Chuan were a little uncomfortable because they were beaten with a military staff, so they went back to rest.

In fact, the emperor didn't really want them to stay here, and it was inevitable that the relationship between the two sides had not improved after the war.

Seeing that the emperor of Nanyue was so polite, the envoy naturally relaxed his vigilance.

And in the Shizi Mansion, looking at Mo Xuanyin lying on the bed, Gu Xiqian was a little angry.

"What a faint king, it was obviously because of you that he won the battle, why do you want to be beaten with a cane now, it's really unreasonable."

Seeing Gu Xiqian holding grievances for himself like this, he felt very happy, "It's nothing, but I didn't expect that the envoy would be able to meditate on the article, and I was also for the sake of the face of the Xiangwang Mansion, but now that the two countries are on good terms, it can be regarded as a good result." ”

"Even if that's the case, it can't be done to you, if you knew that this was the case, you might as well kill that messenger in the first place, and that Lin Yiliu!"

Mo Xuanyin smiled helplessly, if he could, he would also like to do this, but Lanling Country is the leader of many small country alliances, if he can't convince Lanling Country this time, if he really fights in the future, it is estimated that he will lose both.

In addition, the Lanling State has the secret support of the Yan State, and the coalition forces of the small countries, if the South Yue State wants to win this battle, it is really a bit of a fool's dream.

If you anger the Lanling Kingdom, other small countries will rebel one after another, and even if it is yourself at that time, you may not be able to fight so many small countries to join forces.

And more importantly, if the South Yue Kingdom fights every year, then he and Gu Xiqian will return to Yunnan Country in the distant future.

"It's okay, now that the war has subsided, let's pack up and prepare to go back to Yunnan." Mo Xuanyin held her hand and said.

"Well, finally we can get out of this place of right and wrong." Gu Xiqian sighed.

Two days later, Mo Xuanyin was recuperating at home, and saw a father-in-law walk in and whispered: "Your Royal Highness, the emperor has something to summon. ”

Mo Xuanyin, who was lying on the bed, looked puzzled, could it be that the last time the military staff had not been hit enough?

However, the emperor had an order, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he had to clean up, and after talking to Gu Xiqian, he entered the palace to face the saint.

"His Royal Highness the Prince has arrived!"

The summons sounded, and the emperor, who was drinking tea in the room, immediately became excited.

"See the Emperor... Above. Mo Xuanyin came in to say goodbye, and when he just knelt down, the place where he was hit by the cane last time began to ache faintly.

"Excuse me, please get up!" Seeing Mo Xuanyin in such pain, the emperor immediately went over and helped him up.

I saw that after Mo Xuanyin just stood up, Mu Chuan also walked in on Mo Xuanyin's hind feet.

"Erchen, see..."I saw that Mu Chuan was halfway through his words, and his expression was the same as Mo Xuanyin's situation just now, and he couldn't even speak in pain.

Looking at the situation of the two of them, the emperor was also a little helpless.

"I summoned you today, there is something to discuss with you, first of all, about your military exploits, I have already read the battle report, you did a good job this time, defeated the Lanling Kingdom, and now many small countries are planning to send envoys to the South Yue Kingdom, all of this is the credit of the prince." The emperor patted the fold on the table and said.

"God bless the country of Nanyue, for thousands of years, the princes also admire the emperor's wisdom, such a move is a wise move." Mo Xuanyin hugged his fist.

Looking at the emperor's happy face, Mo Xuanyin's face was a little embarrassed, when would he be able to say such flattering words.

"Okay, Shizi, in this battle, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, hundreds of horses, and thousands of cloth!"

"Your Majesty." Mo Xuanyin said excitedly.

Mu Chuan saw that Mo Xuanyin had such a reward, and he was also a little jealous, but he couldn't show it on his face.

"Muchuan, this time you have a second-class merit, a thousand taels of silver, thousands of cloths, and dozens of subordinates."

"Son-in-law, thank your father!" Makikawa said excitedly.

After the three of them chatted for a while, Makikawa felt that there was nothing to talk about, so he left before the atmosphere became awkward.

The emperor watched Mu Chuan leave, his face became a little relaxed, and it seemed that he wanted to talk to Mo Xuanyin alone about something.

"Shizi, this battle report, if I'm not mistaken, Lanling Kingdom has bought off the assassin organization to assassinate this time, is this true?"

Mo Xuanyin took a few deep breaths, but he didn't expect the emperor to care about these things.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed the case, and the Lanling Kingdom has bought off the world's famous assassin organization "Rakshasa Gate", but they later defected, and with the help of a strange person, the minister survived. Mo Xuanyin explained.

Hearing that there was a strange person, the emperor immediately became interested.

"It's not just a strange person? Please also ask His Royal Highness the Prince to come. ”

"This person's name is Wuwei, a famous ranger on the rivers and lakes, but this person is indifferent to fame and fortune, after the war with Lanling State, he traveled around, and the minister only escaped the clutches of his help by chance."

Mo Xuanyin's words made the original intention of recruiting the other party disappear in an instant, so he had to sigh helplessly, but after thinking about it for a while, the emperor's face became a little weird.

Noticing that the emperor's expression was a little strange, he saw Mo Xuanyin immediately change his words and said: "Your Majesty, about this war, the minister has found some strange things. ”

"Oh? What's the matter? Please come to the world! ”

I saw Mo Xuanyin take out a roster from his arms and hand it over, "Your Majesty, this time is the list of people I entrusted the Rakshasa Gate to investigate in Lanling Kingdom, this is a roster of people including generals and above, please take a look." ”

The emperor took the roster and looked at it, but the first few pages were a list of some of the other party's generals, but those emperors had never seen it, and they basically flipped through it without looking at it a few times.

"Shizi, what's the use of you letting me see this? Haven't they already been arrested by you? The emperor asked Mo Xuanyin while watching.

"Your Majesty, this is a bad statement, the minister wants the emperor to see it, and it is the identity of the eldest princess inside." Mo Xuanyin reminded.

The emperor was a little skeptical, because before in the main hall, Mo Xuanyin did not mention the identity of the eldest princess of Lanling when he said the battle report, so at that time, he also regarded the other party as an ordinary member of the aristocracy.

Now it seems that in Mo Xuanyin's words, it means that the identity of this eldest princess is not simple.

When I turned to the page of the eldest princess, I saw Lin Yiliu's name appear in the eyes of the emperor.

"Shizi, you are a big sin!" The emperor closed the roster and said.

"Emperor Qiqi, there is absolutely no falsehood in what the minister said, even if this person is the wife of the Xiangwang Mansion, she is also the princess of Lanling Kingdom, and Lord Muchuan can also help the minister testify about this matter!" Mo Xuanyin said excitedly.

Mo Xuanyin's words made the emperor react a little, no wonder Mo Xuanyin didn't say who the eldest princess of Lanling Kingdom was at that time, if it was exposed on the spot, not only would Lanling Kingdom's face be unbearable, but even Xiangwang's Mansion would be affected, and there would be more things involved.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a reluctant request, and I also ask the emperor to stop this matter in moderation and not pursue it further." Mo Xuanyin knelt down and said.

In the face of Mo Xuanyin's request, the emperor was a little hesitant, although he was very curious about the reason for this, but now it has involved the Xiangwang Mansion, if he investigates it again, I am afraid that the situation will not be under his control.

And Mo Xuanyin's words are not like a request for him, but a second, so that he can have a step down, and now that the two countries have just made friends, it is really not appropriate for something to happen.

"I will do what you want, and this matter will be over."

Mo Xuanyin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and by the way, he mentioned the matter of leaving with Gu Xiqian.

The emperor naturally understood that there was no reason to leave Mo Xuanyin now, so he instructed Liu Zhi to send good medicine for the wound, and left Nanyue after five days of recuperation.

Back at Shizi's Mansion, after the two discussed it, they began to fantasize about their future lives.

On the other hand, the envoy stayed in the mansion arranged by the capital, waiting to return to Lanling after the matter at hand was dealt with.

However, during this time, the envoy's behavior began to be a little disorderly, and even caused a lot of trouble in the capital, but for the sake of the good faces of the two countries, the officials did not say much.

One night, the envoy drank at the inn and left without paying the money, and the little two in the store were not surprised.

"Hmph, if you cheat and eat and drink because you are a messenger, you should not be arrested and sent to prison." Xiao Er wiped the table and muttered.
