In the autumn of one hundred and twenty-fifth year of Great Xia, the four princes led the six princes to defeat Lingnan City, and then stationed troops in Jinrong City to wait for the emperor to send reinforcements.

But what they were waiting for was not reinforcements, but a decree.

This holy decree came by the eunuch in charge of the imperial palace in person, and the fourth prince and the sixth prince were ready to receive the decree, but they didn't expect that the holy decree was not for the two of them.

"Father-in-law, what does my father mean?"

Gonggong Li in front of the emperor raised his delicate orchid and pointed out: "The two princes are not in a hurry, just follow the old slave and know." The cavalry opened the way, and then the carriages sped by, and the group headed straight up the hill.

War Eagle got up early in the morning and had nothing to do, and was picking the medicinal materials that Liu Fan picked back yesterday with Yin Yu, both of them have martial arts, and their ear power is much better than that of ordinary people, War Eagle put down the herbs in his hand first, stood up and listened attentively, frowning: "Yin Yu, you go and inform the master, someone is coming, let him prepare in advance." ”

Yin Yu didn't dare to slack off for half a minute, and hurriedly ran into the house, at this time Su Mu and Liu Fan were studying medical books, hoping to find other medicines to suppress Su Mu's toxicity.

Yin Yu hurriedly came, not caring about anything else: "Master, someone is coming, and there are quite a few of them." ”

Su Mu's face was slightly gloomy: "Miao Miao, let Liu Fan take you away, no matter what happens, you can't come back without permission, I will let the war eagle notify you when I can come back." ”

Qin Miaomiao naturally wanted to ask the reason, but Su Mu had already taken the burden for her: "Quick, I'll explain to you when I come back, senior brother, Miao Miao will bother you to take care of her, take her to the mountains to hide for a while, and don't let the soldiers of Great Xia find her." ”

Qin Miaomiao couldn't delay any longer, and followed Liu Fan to leave from the back door of the villa, the two of them had just left with their front feet, and the cavalry with their back feet had already arrived at the main gate of the villa.

A cavalryman dismounted, slammed the gate, and it was the eagle who opened the door, coldly swept the group in front of the door, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The cavalry knew that he was soft-spoken, and he retreated to the side very sensibly, and it happened that Gonggong Li and the two princes who were just behind him had also gotten out of the carriage.

When the war eagle saw the comer, he immediately bowed and saluted: "The villain has seen the four emperors and the six princes." ”

War Eagle has been by Su Mu's side since he was a child, and the fourth prince and the sixth prince naturally knew him, and the fourth prince hurriedly walked a few steps to War Eagle: "The third brother is here?" ”

War Eagle didn't hesitate, he knew that the fourth prince was knowingly asking: "Yes, the prince is here." ”

The sixth prince is three years younger than the fourth prince, twenty this year, although he has been an adult for a long time, his personality is still stubborn: "War Eagle, take me to see the third brother, I haven't seen him for a long time!" "The war eagle sideways led the four princes and the six princes into the villa, because Liu Fan left a while ago, he dispersed all the birds and beasts in the villa, so the villa at this time is no different from the ordinary villa, but it is a little deeper.

Su Mu sat in the hall of the villa, Yin Yu waited on the side, and saw the war eagle come in with a group of people, Su Mu didn't raise his eyelids, still tasting the tea in his hand, although Su Mu was cold, but the four princes and the sixth prince were extremely excited to see him, the two of them liked to pester Su Mu since they were children, and they were really worshipped, otherwise they would not learn from Su Mu's appearance and mix in the military camp.

Seeing Su Mu, both of them were full of joy, and they ran to Su Mu like children, and said in unison: "Third brother, long time no see!" ”

Su Mu still glanced at the two of them coldly, the two of them were used to it, since Su Mu fell off the cliff and came back, he always treated people like this.

The afterglow swept to Gonggong Li behind him, Su Mu's eyes were immediately bored, and he commanded the war eagle in a loud voice: "The four princes, the six princes stay, and the rest of the people blast out." ”

Gonggong Li wanted to say hello, but he was choked back by Su Mu's words, but who is he, he is seeking skin with the tiger all day long, and Ma Wei can't stop him at all.

A brighter smile immediately appeared on his face, and he bowed to Su Mu: "Wu Anjun is angry, the old slave knows that the old slave has polluted your eyes, but the old slave now represents the emperor, so the old slave will leave immediately after reading the emperor's holy decree." ”

Hearing his words, Su Mu snorted coldly: "I'm no longer in the temple, you don't have to call me Wu Anjun, and I won't accept your order." After speaking, he didn't care about Gonggong Li's ugly face, and gestured to the war eagle's eyes: "Boom out!" "I didn't accept the order, but it was a capital crime, but it was so inappropriate for Su Mu, the sixth prince was worried that Su Mu would be blamed by the emperor, and just wanted to open his mouth to dissuade him, but he was blocked back by the fourth prince.

Gonggong Li stood at the door, holding the holy decree with both hands, his face was blue and red for a while, he had served in front of the emperor for so many years, and it was the first time that he had encountered a protest and did not accept it. I hesitated for a while, not knowing what to do.

The war eagle got the order and walked in front of Gonggong Li, his tone was full of respect, but also very cold: "Gonggong Li, please." ”

Gonggong Li glanced at Su Mu and didn't dare to speak, if he was someone else, even if it was the prime minister and general of the dynasty, he would dare to reprimand a few words against the decree, but Su Mu didn't dare to say a word.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he bowed down in the face of Su Mu and bowed: "The old slave retires." Holding the holy decree, he left with a disgraced face.

After Gonggong Li left, the sixth prince was more casual, sitting on the chair next to Su Mu, picking up the teacup on the table and pouring a big gulp: "Third brother, you will be punished by your father for resisting the decree, why are you more reckless than me." ”

Their brothers only knew that Su Mu was the grandson of the emperor himself, and his father could only punish him, not hurt his life.

Su Mu didn't answer the words of the six princes, but opened his mouth to ask the others: "How did you lose to Huainan, the prince of the Western Regions?" ”

When this was mentioned, the four princes and the six princes immediately bowed their heads and remained silent as if frost had beaten an eggplant, their battle was indeed too ugly.

After a long time, the fourth prince spoke: "Third brother, the soldiers in the Western Regions are indeed brave, and our army claims to be 300,000, but it is actually less than 200,000, and they are all temporary recruits, many of them are holding swords for the first time, and when they arrive on the battlefield, they are so frightened that they can't stand on their feet before the war starts." At the beginning of the war, it was even more scattered, and it was so frightened that it retreated. "Su Mu had already discovered these situations when the army passed through Jinrong City, when the army passed through the city, the team in front of it could barely be considered neat, but in the end, it was lazy and procrastinated, and even had no orderly formation.

The sixth prince didn't want to mention this matter again, and the top priority was to find a way to make the enemy retreat: "Third brother, what do you say we are going to do now, we can't watch the people of the Western Regions invade my land of Great Xia." ”

Su Mu sneered: "You can't let them invade, why don't you train well in normal times?" ”

The sixth prince, who was choked on a word, was speechless, coughed twice in embarrassment, and suddenly turned his gaze to Yin Yu, who was standing behind Su Mu: "Third brother, this sister is the one you rescued from the prison a while ago?" ”

Su Mu broke into the prison to save Qin Miaomiao, everyone in Chang'an City knew about it, and at that time, because Qin Miaomiao was sent away by Su Mu in a hurry, few people had seen Qin Miaomiao's appearance, and the six princes had never seen it, and when they saw Yin Yu accompanying Su Mu, they recognized her as Qin Miaomiao.

Su Mu turned around and glanced at Yin Yu, and suddenly reached out and took Yin Yu's hand: "She is my wife." ”

Su Mu's words not only scared the two princes, but also wanted to scare Yin Yu and War Eagle, and the four of them all looked at Su Mu in surprise, but they didn't say a word for a long time.

In the end, it was the sixth prince who came back to his senses first, and joked with a smile: "Yo, third brother, you will marry a wife, and the iron tree will bloom." Su Mu turned his head and looked at Yin Yu gently, and when he spoke again, he said as if he was saying to the six princes, as well as to himself: "When you meet the right person, you will naturally stay together for a lifetime." ”

The two princes looked at Su Mu's expression, glanced at each other, and then the two laughed in unison: "It seems that the third brother now knows what love is?" ”

Su Mu still looked at Yin Yu gently and smiled without answering.

Yin Yu was held by Su Mu, looking back at Su Mu with affection, she knew that Su Mu was acting, she had never seen Su Mu with such gentle eyes before.

But even if she knew that it was fake, she was willing to accompany him in this scene, but her heart was also cold to the bottom, she was happy for many days after receiving Su Mu's order, she thought that although Su Mu did not accept herself, but she treated herself differently after all, so many people only let herself accompany her, so since she came to this villa, she is happy every day, every day when she sees Qin Miaomiao entangled by Su Mu's side, she will secretly comfort herself, sooner or later one day she will take her place, She didn't expect this day to come so quickly, but the location had changed its taste.

Just when a few people were talking happily, there was a knock on the door again.

The war eagle opened the door and just wanted to open his mouth to reprimand, but he saw that the person standing outside the door was not a soldier, nor Gonggong Li, but a big prince who came in a hurry on horseback and dust.

The war eagle turned around and glanced inside the door, Su Mu nodded invisibly, his heart was at the bottom, and he turned back to the eldest prince and saluted respectfully: "I have seen the eldest prince, my prince has already commanded that if the eldest prince comes as a brother, he can enter, if he comes to read the holy decree, he cannot enter the door." ”

After listening to the words of the war eagle, the eyes of the great prince were in vain, and he shouted angrily: "Bold! Yu Qing I am Su Mu's eldest brother, Yu Li at this time I represent my father, I want to advise the third brother not to be too arrogant, when the country is in trouble, please don't know why, the two please Jun Shengzhi has given him full face, he doesn't toast and don't eat, eat and punish wine! ”

The words of the eldest prince were like a stone sinking into the sea, and the war eagle stood in front of the door and looked at his nose and heart, as if he had not heard the words of the eldest prince at all, and there was no expression of concession.
