Gu Tingyu looked at the black plaque and was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly became excited.

If he remembered correctly, this mountain peak was the Jiulong Mountain he had always dreamed of.

At the beginning, he almost lost his life in order to find Jiulong Mountain and Phoenix Blood Jade, and he was also injured, and finally forced to leave the Southern Barbarian Country. Unexpectedly, he came to Jiulong Mountain again.

"Lord, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Dehai on the side saw that his master had been staring at the mountain peak in a daze, and couldn't help but ask.

"I don't have anything, I just think this Jiulong Mountain is a little familiar, as if I have been to this place before." Gu Tingyu said lightly.

When Zhao Dehai heard this, he didn't continue to ask.

"Lord Wang, my subordinates have something to report to you." Zhao Dehai suddenly said seriously.

Gu Tingyu turned his head to look at Zhao Dehai and wondered, "What's the matter?"

"Lord Wang, yesterday the spies we sent to various places came back with news that the Northern Netherworld has united with the Tanglin Kingdom.

"Huh!" Gu Tingyu sneered, "They're quite positive! Now that they've decided, let's go with the flow! 「

"Yes! Subordinates obey! 「

Three days later, Zhao Dehai came to Gu Tingyu's study with a secret letter.

"My lord, the envoy of the Northern Netherworld has sent this secret letter." Zhao Dehai said respectfully.

Gu Tingyu stretched out his hand to take the secret letter.

The secret letter reads: The Tanglin Kingdom and the Northern Netherworld have signed an agreement, and the two countries will cooperate to jointly attack the Southern Barbarian Kingdom.

Gu Tingyu hooked his lips and smiled: "Huh...... Is the North really desperate for me to help them? In that case, I'll grant their wishes! 「

After Gu Tingyu finished speaking, he asked Zhao Dehai to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Soon, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were placed on the desk.

Gu Tingyu lifted the brush and stained it with rich ink.

"Brush, brush!" wrote a line of words.

Subsequently, he blew dry the ink on the paper, and then handed it to Zhao Dehai, so that Zhao Dehai could personally send the letter to the Northern Underworld.

Zhao Dehai took it with both hands and said respectfully, "Yes."

Then, Zhao Dehai left in a hurry.

......

Gu Tingyu returned to the house, and as soon as he sat down, a guard ran in.

"Lord, it's not good!"

"What's the matter? Panicked, what kind of system. Gu Tingyu frowned.

"Subordinate convicted!" The guard knelt down and pleaded guilty, and then said in a low voice, "Lord Wang, the man we sent to assassinate the leader of the Southern Barbarians last night failed."

Gu Tingyu frowned, his eyes were cold, and he stood up suddenly: "Who did it?"

The guard said, "Yes...... It's a subordinate! 「

"Are you crazy? How dare you act on your own?" Gu Tingyu said angrily.

The reason why he chose to send troops to deal with the Southern Barbarian State this time was not because he hated the Southern Barbarian State so much, on the contrary, he did not have the slightest hatred for the Southern Barbarian State, after all, the Southern Barbarian State had never invaded their Tanglin Kingdom.

However, the Southern Barbarian Kingdom is an enemy to their Tanglin Kingdom.

At that time, the first emperor of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom was ambitious and tried in vain to annex their Tanglin Kingdom. It's a pity that the Southern Barbarian Kingdom is too small to annex their Tanglin State at all, and has even been repeatedly oppressed by the Tanglin Kingdom.

Later, the first emperor of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom died in the war after all.

The Southern Barbarian Kingdom was leaderless, and most of the people surrendered to their Tanglin Kingdom.

For decades, their Tanglin Kingdom has been stationed around the Southern Barbarian Kingdom to ensure the safety of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom.

Although they are now allies with the Southern Barbarians, if the people of the Southern Barbarians break the alliance, they will never tolerate the actions of their adopted daughters.

Therefore, every ten years, they would send elite assassins to infiltrate the Southern Barbarian Kingdom to assassinate the high-ranking members of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom.

However, today, he received the news that someone had infiltrated the Southern Barbarian Kingdom and killed the elite assassins they had sent.

This incident shocked him.

The guard listened to Gu Tingyu's words and hurriedly explained, "Lord Wang, this matter is not what we want! The subordinates and others originally wanted to go and assassinate the leader of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom. It's just that as soon as we stepped into the territory of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom, we were attacked by people and suffered heavy losses! 「

The guard spoke later, his tone full of grief.

They were ordered to infiltrate the Southern Barbarian Country, originally only planning to sneak into the Southern Barbarian Country quietly and assassinate the leader of the Southern Barbarian Country. Unexpectedly, they encountered an ambush, and they lost five or six people without even figuring out who their opponent was.

When Gu Tingyu heard this, his face was still gloomy, he groaned for a while, and then asked, "Are you sure that someone was attacking?"

The guard said, "Lord Mingjian, we were indeed attacked!"

"Hmm. You go down first! After Gu Tingyu finished indifferently, he waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat.

After the guards retreated, Gu Tingyu immediately called a guard and ordered, "You quickly bring this letter to the Northern Netherworld and hand it over to the envoy of the Northern Netherworld. Remember, always deliver the letter in person. 「

Gu Tingyu handed the note to the guards, and then instructed the guards to hand it over to the envoy of the Northern Netherworld in person.

"Yes." The guard took the note and said respectfully.

After the guards left, Gu Tingyu fell into deep thought.

This time, the Northern Underworld and the Tanglin Kingdom are cooperating, and their goal is probably for the Southern Barbarian Kingdom. If his guess was correct, this assassination must have come from the Northern Netherworld and the Tanglin Kingdom.

Damn it!

Gu Tingyu gritted his teeth, these despicable and shameless bastards actually used such insidious tricks against him!

............

The next day, the army of the Tanglin Kingdom began to prepare for the battle.

Gu Tingyu rode a horse and walked at the front of the team, wearing armor, majestic and domineering.

Gu Tingyu rode his horse to Zhao Dehai and said, "Father-in-law Zhao, during the absence of this king, the affairs of the court will trouble you.

Zhao Dehai bowed down and said, "Don't worry, the slave will do his best to do a good job for the prince."

"Hmm." Gu Tingyu replied lightly, and then turned to leave.

Looking at Gu Tingyu's distant back, Zhao Dehai sighed, shook his head, and turned to leave.

..........

Gu Tingyu led the army to set off, and the envoy of the Northern Underworld had already arrived in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom two days earlier.

When Gu Tingyu led the army to set off, the envoys of the Northern Underworld also came to the capital city of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom.

The envoys of the two countries met to discuss the formation of an alliance and to fight together against the Southern Barbarians.

Gu Tingyu and the envoy of the Northern Netherworld drank and chatted in the restaurant box in the capital city, talking about friendship.

The two were talking when there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." Gu Tingyu said lightly.

Immediately, the door of the box was opened from the outside, Gu Tingyu raised his eyes, and saw Zhao Dehai walking in from the door.

After Zhao Dehai came in, he first bowed to Gu Tingyu, and then said, "Lord Qi, someone from the palace just said that Princess Lengshuang was sick and needed to be treated by a doctor, so I sent an old slave to invite the prince back to his house."

Gu Tingyu's brows furrowed suddenly, and he said coldly, "How could you suddenly get sick? Can you find out what is the disease? 「

Zhao Dehai replied, "According to the diagnosis of the Tai Doctor at Tai Hospital, it seems that he is infected with typhoid fever. The old slave didn't know what the specific situation was. 「

Hearing this answer, Gu Tingyu's brows tightened even more.

Gu Tingyu squinted his eyes slightly, stared at Zhao Dehai, and said coldly, "Are all the imperial doctors in your Tai Hospital rice buckets? Even this little illness can't be cured, what does this king want them to do? 「

When Zhao Dehai heard this, his forehead was sweating, he lowered his head, and said, "The prince forgives the sin, but the princess's cold frost's condition is too weird, and the old slave has nothing to do."

"Humph! A bunch of quacks! Gu Tingyu snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and left.

When Gu Tingyu returned to the palace, it was already evening.

After coming back, Gu Tingyu immediately went to find Cold Cream

。

Leng Shuang was resting on the bed, and when he saw Gu Tingyu coming back, he immediately sat up and said, "Lord Wang, you're back!" br>

"Hmm. What's wrong with your body? Gu Tingyu asked.

Leng Shuang smiled and said, "It's already much better, thank you for taking care of the prince."

Hearing this, Gu Tingyu reached out and stroked Cold Frost's pale cheeks, and said softly, "You have a good rest!"

"Hmm." Leng Shuang nodded and watched Gu Tingyu leave.

As soon as Gu Tingyu walked out of the room, he ran into the maid Hongmei.

Hongmei walked in with a medicine bowl, looking like she wanted to say something.

Seeing this, Gu Tingyu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Hongmei, what's wrong?" If you have something to say, say it. 「

Hongmei pursed her lips, and then said, "Lord Wang, during your absence, the princess has been talking about you.

"Oh?" Gu Tingyu raised his eyebrows, looking surprised.

His wife was talking about him? Hehe, it's really unusual!

Leng Shuang is a woman with an extremely cold personality, and it is difficult for others to get close to her except for the two of them. Therefore, after she married into the palace, the people of the palace rarely saw her laughing.

Will she be talking about him?

Thinking of this, Gu Tingyu felt that maybe he should go and explore.

So, he said to Hongmei, "You put down the decoction, let Xiaolian wait, and then you go and report again, this king is going to see Madame."

"Yes, lord!"

A moment later, Xiaolian walked in with a cup of decoction.

"Lord Wang, the medicine is ready." Xiaolian respectfully handed the medicine bowl to Gu Tingyu and blessed him.

Gu Tingyu reached out and took the medicine bowl, then turned around and left the bedroom.

Cold Frost's room is right next door to him.

When Gu Tingyu pushed away the room of cold cream, a strong smell of medicine came to his nose.

Inside the room, Leng Shuang was half-leaning on the soft collapse, his eyes closed, and his expression looked a little haggard.

When Gu Tingyu saw this scene, he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, walked over lightly, squatted down next to the soft collapse, and quietly stared at the sleeping face of the cold frost.

Over the years, she has suffered a lot for him, and even lost her life.

However, even so, he still did not touch any male and female feelings for her.

For so many years, the only woman he liked was the woman Cold Frost.

"Are you awake?" Gu Tingyu slowly hooked his lips, revealing a warm smile.

Hearing this familiar voice, Cold Frost slowly opened his eyes. She turned her head to look, and sure enough, she saw Gu Tingyu standing next to the soft collapse and looking at herself.

Cold Frost smiled lightly on his lips, and then asked, "Lord Wang, are you done?"
