It's not a matter of blackmailing, it's just that the emperor regards you as General Xiao's weakness, thinking that if he pinches you, he can hold on to General Xiao, which is very unfavorable to us. ”

Shao Huaigu was like a mirror in his heart, the emperor was ready to move before, but he couldn't catch Xiao Mohan's handle, so he was helpless, so he set his sights on Qian Qianqian.

If Qian Qianqian doesn't return to the capital, the emperor will also issue an order to recall her, but at that time, it will be as simple as letting her go to the Tai Hospital.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it, the battle ahead is anxious, and I will never let myself become someone else's weakness to take advantage of General Xiao."

Qian Qianqian said very firmly, her eyes were full of indescribable stubbornness, she knew the stakes and knew what she should do, no matter when, she didn't want to be a burden to Xiao Mohan.

"That's good, General Xiao lost three cities for you before, and Xiao Guo suffered heavy losses, which made the emperor very dissatisfied and wanted to negotiate peace with Yang Guo, so this battle did not go well."

Shao Huaigu was also worried, he sifted through the excerpts from the frontier before handing them to the emperor, so what fell into the eyes of the emperor was not serious, and the more serious ones were in his hands, and he kept pressing them and didn't let the news go.

When Qian Qianqian heard this, her heart also became depressed, although she knew that the situation on Xiao Mohan's side was not good, but she didn't expect it to be so bad, this time Xiao Guo has exhausted his national strength, if she can't win this battle and let Yang Guo make a comeback, then I'm afraid there will be no such a good opportunity.

"Can we send more reinforcements?"

Qian Qianqian was worried about Xiao Mohan, and she didn't care whether it was appropriate to bring this up at this time.

"After some turmoil in the capital, manpower is already tight, and now there are not enough guards outside, what to take to reinforce? If General Xiao can't recapture the three lost cities, the emperor is afraid that he will have to negotiate peace with the central state. ”

Shao Huaigu didn't hide it, anyway, when Qian Qianqian arrived in the capital, she would know about it sooner or later, and it would be better for her to know earlier than later.

Qian Qianqian's heart was depressed, uncomfortable, but there was nothing she could do, she could send food to Xiao Mohan, but she couldn't send the soldiers, after all, there was only food in that space.

Walking to the gate of the palace, Shao Huaigu went straight to the sedan chair, his leg disease couldn't go too far, just now he came out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he was a little overwhelmed, and he was not even very stable when he stood up.

Qian Qianqian stood at the door, seeing Shao Huaigu's sedan chair walking away, before she withdrew her gaze, and just as she was about to turn around and leave, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Gang Master Ling."

Qian Qianqian followed the prestige, but she didn't expect it to be Ling Zi'an, looking at Ling Zi'an's dress, her face was full of surprise, it seemed that Ling Zi'an was already working for the imperial court.

"Now your official should be not small."

Qian Qianqian glanced Ling Zi'an up and down, and quickly recognized it, this is the iron armor of the deputy commander of the forbidden army in the palace, and now he is wearing it, but he is very arrogant and tough.

"You know, I don't want to be an official, I put on this garment, just to understand the urgent needs of the capital, and when General Xiao returns triumphantly, I will take off this iron armor and take my people back to Lianzhou."

Ling Zi'an's face did not change, and explained lightly, there was no superfluous expression on his face, he looked really indifferent, and he was not greedy for fame and fortune at all.

"No matter what, now that you are in the capital, the capital will not be so fragile, and when General Xiao comes back, your benefits will definitely be indispensable."

Qian Qianqian knew Ling Zi'an's temperament, so it was not surprising at all, Ling Zi'an didn't want to be an official in the first place, but now there is no way, so when Xiao Mohan comes back, he should have other plans.

"I've heard about you in Dingyuan City, you are indeed amazing, you are a strange woman, but let me remind you, this capital is not as deep as Dingyuan City, the water in it is much deeper, and there are a lot of twists and turns, so you had better pay more attention, don't follow the way of others."

Ling Zi'an seemed to have something to say, but he didn't say it explicitly, although no one passed by, it was also in broad daylight, and the partition wall had ears, so it was better to be vigilant.

"With you in this palace, what am I afraid of? Don't worry, I'll be careful. ”

Qian Qianqian's face was flushed with a light smile, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, she looked very bright, and she spoke easily, as if she didn't take it to heart at all.

Ling Zi'an just nodded, and passed straight past Qian Qianqian, Qian Qianqian turned her head, glanced at his back, thought in her heart for a moment, and left with Xue Yi.

"Miss Qian, the emperor's decree is very clear, let you enter the palace in three days, do we have to go back and prepare?"

Xue Yi held the holy decree in her hand, followed behind Qian Qianqian, and asked in a low voice, since this matter is obviously not simple, then they must not take it lightly.

"It's time to prepare."

Qian Qianqian's expression turned cold, her eyes were hidden with indescribable fierceness, and her gaze was cold, as if she was hanging with a sharp blade, which would fall at any time.

Since the little emperor let her enter the palace, she had to do it, but this palace seemed to be peaceful, but it was strange everywhere, she couldn't just go, but took the opportunity to bring a lot of things to defend herself.

Jiang Sheng has been arranged in the Tai Hospital, Qian Qianqian has one room for one person, and there is no need to have more contact with other Tai Doctors on weekdays, just need to serve herbs and read medical books, and the days can be regarded as leisurely.

It's just that there has been no news from Xiao Mohan's side, and I don't know if the three lost cities have been regained, Qian Qianqian stayed in the Tai Hospital all day, and left the palace after dark, and didn't dare to go out and walk around at will, in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't have much contact with Jiang Sheng, so he didn't know anything.

Qian Xuan also lived in Mu Mansion, Mu Tianyue treated her well, and the food was the best, but she just didn't come to see her, she finally couldn't hold it back, and sneaked out while the maid who was waiting for her was not paying attention.

This Mu Mansion is really not small, although Qian Xuan has also lived here before, but he is only active in the backyard, and he doesn't know that there are so many heavens and lakes in this mansion, so he quickly got lost.

Master Mu was walking in the courtyard, and by the way, he listened to the housekeeper's report on this month's account flow, although all the business of the Mu family was handed over to Mu Tianyue, but in the accounts, Master Mu really refused to let go, and he had to check it every month to rest assured.

Unconsciously, Qian Xuan broke into the courtyard, usually Master Mu listened to the accounts, there could be no idle people in this courtyard, and now Qian Xuan broke in so recklessly, and soon attracted the attention of Master Mu.

"Who?"

The housekeeper turned his head, closed the account book, and shouted, Qian Xuan didn't know what was going on, and was suddenly startled.

"Where did you come from? It doesn't look like a maid in the house, what are you doing sneakily? ”

The housekeeper walked over, grabbed Qian Xuan's wrist, and pinched Qian Xuansheng's pain, Mu Tianyue had approached the Mu Mansion before, and it was done secretly, without alarming anyone, anyway, there were many empty houses in this Mu Mansion, as long as those subordinates didn't chew their tongues, no one would find out, so the housekeeper didn't know her.

"I, I'm here to find Boss Mu."

Qian Xuan lowered his head, looked at the two people in front of him, and felt a little panicked, looking at what Master Mu was wearing, he knew that it was extraordinary, and it was not a good thing that she was so rude.

"Looking for the young master, who are you?"

The housekeeper glanced at Qian Xuan up and down, he didn't have a good temperament, his face showed a little disgust, Qian Xuan looked at his young age, not like he had business dealings with Mu Tianyue, a girl's family, swaggering to come to the house to find a man, it was really not a decent move.

"I'm a friend of Boss Mu, you call him here, you can tell as soon as you ask, don't worry, I'm not a villain, and I don't have any intentions, I just want to see Boss Mu."

Qian Xuan stiffened, squeezed out a smile from her face, revealing two little tiger teeth, she was originally born small, and then smiled slightly, she looked delicate and cute, which was completely annoying.

The housekeeper was irritable in his heart, remembering the matter at hand, and he didn't give Qian Xuan a good look, and he raised his hand to blast Qian Xuan out, but Master Mu came over and stopped him.

"You said you were a friend of Boss Mu, and I was his father, how did I not know that my Mu family still had a friend like you?"

Master Mu walked up to Qian Xuan, motioned to the housekeeper to let go, and looked at Qian Xuan condescendingly, Qian Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and moved his wrist.

When Qian Xuan heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, she never thought that the old man in front of her turned out to be Master Mu.

"It turns out that you are Master Mu, I, I am the one who has received the favor of Boss Mu, so I came to repay him, with my identity, I naturally can't be friends with Mu Jiapan, I just lost my words, please don't care."

Qian Xuan naturally didn't dare to act rashly, immediately lowered his posture, and responded cautiously, his eyes looked around, and his heart gradually hung up.

"Really? Boss Mu is not in the house now, how about you repay the favor, how about repaying me? ”

Master Mu stroked the white beard on his chin, and a faint smile appeared on his face, which was completely confusing, so the housekeeper didn't dare to make a sound.

Qian Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then came back to her senses, now that Mu Tianyue was not there, she naturally didn't dare to refuse, so she was taken away by Master Mu in a daze.

When Mu Tianyue returned home, it was already evening, and the maid who was waiting for Qian Xuan found that Qian Xuan was gone, so she was so anxious that she searched up and down the house, but she couldn't find it, and in desperation, she could only inform Mu Tianyue.

"What? She ran away? This little girl can really add to the chaos. ”

Mu Tianyue just sat down, and he didn't even have time to drink tea, and when he heard this, he suddenly became excited, raised his feet and walked out.

"If you can't find it in the house, send someone out to find it, no matter what, you have to find Qian Xuan."

Mu Tianyue instructed as he walked, Qian Xuan was Qian Qianqian's sister, if he lost it, Qian Qianqian would have to strangle him, so he didn't dare to take it lightly.

"Young master, the slave heard a little bit of news, and I don't know whether to say it or not."

The maid who followed behind spoke cautiously, as if there was something unspeakable, and kept her head down, cautious.

Mu Tianyue didn't turn around, but stopped and said coldly: "There's nothing to say, let's say it directly." ”

"The slave maid heard that someone saw that the master took away a strange woman, and listening to the description, it was very similar to Miss Qian."

The maid spoke slowly, deliberately lowering her voice.
