Chapter 199: The Humble Son

Just when Li Yi had told all the previous plans, some people were squatting there in the corner of the cabin with their heads in their hands, like frosted eggplants.

They only heard what Li Yi and the others said. Because Mu Qingliang, the son of Qi Kingdom, who was usually pampered, was already numb in his legs at this time, he stretched his legs slightly to relieve his soreness and numbness.

But when he moved, he was discovered by Mu Fengxiang, who was sitting on the Shu brocade cushion. Originally, he hadn't paid attention to his brother.

But the thought that they were now talking about how their ship, which had cost so much to build, sank, made his heart ache.

Although he now knew that the ship was scuttled by Li Yi's order, he didn't dare to blame Li Yi.

In addition to being forced to helpless because of this matter, the most fundamental reason is that he is a little afraid of Li Yi from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, Mu Fengxiang, who couldn't vent the evil fire in his heart, got up in an instant, walked to Mu Qingliang's side in three or two steps, and lifted Mu Qingliang up.

"Mu Qingliang, you are really good, and now you dare to do it to me." Mu Fengxiang said angrily while holding Mu Qingliang's neckline.

Because he was so excited, he sprayed saliva on Mu Qingliang's face. Although Mu Qingliang felt very disgusted, he didn't dare to wipe it with his hands.

"It's all a misunderstanding, this matter has nothing to do with me!" Before, Mu Qingliang stood on the bow of the boat and watched the battle between the Vietnamese soldiers and these people in front of him.

He is very clear about the strength of these people. Not to mention these people on their own ship alone, even if the 150 soldiers of the previous Yue Kingdom were still on the ship, it was a question of whether their side could win.

What made him even more jealous was that these people in front of him were murderers who had killed the princes of the feudal kingdom. Once they mess with their own little life, I'm afraid it won't be in the eyes of these people.

As the saying goes, those who know the times are the husbands of the handsome and the strong, and the reason why he is making compromises now is to have the opportunity to send these damn guys to the execution ground in the future.

"Shit, what the fuck do you think I'm a three-year-old?" Mu Fengxiang burst into foul mouth again, and his saliva sprayed Mu Qingliang all over his face again.

Mu Qingliang cried aggrievedly.

"Brother Fengxiang, listen to me! I'm really helpless! Although he had already greeted the eighteenth generation ancestor of Mu Fengxiang in his heart, he did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction on the surface.

"Fuck you, I'm helpless, but I saw screaming and jumping on the bow of the boat before." Mu Fengxiang gave Mu Qingliang a big blow.

Mu Qingliang was a little dazed by his sudden slap. Since he was a child, there are really people who dare to beat him like this.

As soon as he wanted to break free of Mu Fengxiang's hand, he saw Mu Junhe looking at him coldly, and in an instant, he felt like he had entered a cold winter moon, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Brother Fengxiang, listen to my explanation, I really don't have the intention of going against you, the reason why the soldiers of the Yue Kingdom are on my ship is completely forced by the hateful Nanyi." Mu Qingliang said with a crying voice.

"The generals of a vassal country can persecute the prince of a country, who are you fooling!" Mu Fengxiang obviously didn't believe what Mu Qingliang said.

"What I said is true, when five or six hundred of them stopped our boat, I was forced to agree to take them on a ride, I didn't know beforehand that they were going to embarrass you, I knew they were so bold I wouldn't have taken them." Mu Qingliang fakely wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said.

"Fucking pretending to be with me! Believe it or not, I'm going to throw you into the water right now and feed the king! Mu Fengxiang saw that Mu Qingliang was still not telling the truth, so he picked up Mu Qingliang and was about to walk outside the cabin.

This startled Mu Qingliang and the others on the boat.

"Brother Fengxiang, don't be excited, this matter is my fault, it is my ghost who is confused to help Yue Guo to hunt you down, I am wrong, please spare me!" Mu Qingliang cried as he spoke, and this time he really revealed his true feelings.

"Mu Qingliang, let me ask you, how did Nan also know that we left by water?" Li Yi saw that Mu Fengxiang had frightened this Mu Qingliang into tears, so he asked.

"Li Gongzi, I really don't dare to hide this matter, I really don't know how Nan Yi knew that you left by water!" Mu Qingliang was afraid that Li Yi would not believe him, so he immediately added.

"I swear I'm really not lying, we also met them halfway, at first there were about five hundred of them, and then he arranged for two hundred people to pursue you by land, and the rest of the people, Mu Fengchang and my ship, divided one hundred and fifty people each." Mu Qingliang told everything about it.

"In this way, there are only more than 500 people brought by Nan Ye this time?" Although he has now escaped Nan Yek's pursuit and killed some of his soldiers, Li Yi is still worried that the Vietnamese will intercept him along the Huaishui coast.

"It should be just over five hundred." Mu Fengxiang threw Mu Qingyang to the ground. As the prince of the vassal state, he still has some understanding of the situation of the various vassal states in the world, and he is also very clear about the laws and regulations of the Dayu Dynasty.

"How can you be so sure?" Qi Chao asked, flicking his wet hair.

"It's very simple, because this south can also be the commander of the Yue country going north to support it, and this time they have sent a total of one army to the country, that is, 5,000 people."

"Since they have five thousand people, maybe the number of people Nan can bring is far more than five hundred?" Qi Ning also said with some concern.

"Do you know that the main person in the imperial court's request to go to the imperial capital this time is King Qin, and the reason why Nan Yi has the opportunity to come to Yue must be to collect the corpses of Mu Fengshan and Mu Fenglin, since it is to collect the corpses, if he brings too many people, wouldn't it make the people of the court suspect that he has different intentions?" Mu Fengxiang explained to everyone.

I have to say that this Mu Fengxiang seems to be a gentleman, but he still knows a lot about the power struggle in the court.

"What's more, he can also bring thousands of people to Anzhou, I'm afraid that Shi Fangzheng, the envoy of Anzhou Jiedu, should think about whether Yue Guo is here to pick up the bodies of Mu Fengxiang and Mu Fenglin, or to ask Xingshi for guilt."

"In this way, this Yue country is not capable of intercepting us on the Huai River? Is it possible for them to contact other Jiedu envoys or vassal kings to intercept us? Hae Yin stroked his beard and frowned and asked.

He didn't know much about these forces in the south of the Great Imperial Dynasty.

"It's probably unlikely!" Mu Fengxiang shook his head and said.

"Why?"

"Because they don't dare to tell other forces about it." Mu Fengxiang's face showed a smug smile.

"His Royal Highness means that they are jealous of your Tan Kingdom?" Seeing the smile on Mu Fengxiang's face, Hai Yin guessed.

"This gentleman said with a smile, that Yue country is a big country, although my Tan country is not small, but it is not comparable to Yue country, the reason why I said that Nan Yi will not tell other feudal towns and feudal countries about this is completely because he is worried that he will be reprimanded by Zongzheng Temple."

"Soshoji Temple?" Hai Yin had heard of this so-called Zongzheng Temple, but he didn't know what kind of institution this Zongzheng Temple was in the Dayu Dynasty.

"That's right, although Zongzheng Temple has existed since the founding of Dayu, but Zongzheng Temple became an institution that can influence the vassal states of the Dayu Dynasty more than 100 years ago, when in order to settle the dispute between Nanyu and Beiyu, the vassal states and the royal family at that time agreed that people surnamed Mu in the world must obey the orders of Zongzheng Temple, and if there is a violation, those who do not obey will be attacked by the feudal states of the world."

"How can this Zongzheng Temple have such a right?"

"That's right, the Zongzheng Temple of my Dayu Dynasty can even influence His Majesty's decision." Hai Yin couldn't help but be taken aback, he had always thought that the royal family of the Dayu Dynasty was the supreme existence, but now he knew that there were still people in the Dayu Dynasty who could influence the emperor.

"Don't you know that my clan uncle was ordered to hunt down and kill by His Majesty today, and in the end, it was the Zongzheng Temple that made His Majesty revoke the hunt and kill order." Mu Fengxiang said cautiously while looking at Mu Junhe.

He quietly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Mu Jun did not show dissatisfaction.

"I didn't expect this Zongzheng Temple to have such a big right, this is simply a tight hoop on the heads of the emperor and the vassal king!" As soon as Li Yi's words came out, Mu Fengxiang and Mu Qingyang all looked at him with wide eyes.

Such a big rebellion also made those of the royal family surnamed Mu look sideways. But Mu Junhe didn't care about this at all.

After getting along during this time, Li Yi felt that his senior brother was really a little strange. First of all, the relationship between him, as a former direct member of the royal family, and the Dayu royal family has always been in a state of hostility and alienation.

During this period, the Dayu royal family also extended an olive branch to him, wanting to recruit him back to the royal family. But Mu Junhe decisively refused, so he once again completely offended the Dayu royal family to death.

In this case, Zongzheng Temple suddenly stood up and stopped the royal family's pursuit of Mu Junhe and helped him get out of the crisis.

But Mu Junhe was not grateful to Zongzheng Temple for this. He only symbolically thanked Zongzheng Temple and cut off contact with him.

After that, he traveled alone in the rivers and lakes again, vowing to fight the three-foot long sword in his hand to smooth out the injustices in the world.

"Li Gongzi, be cautious!" Seeing that Li Yi was so open-mouthed, Mu Fengxiang immediately reminded in a low voice.

"What my junior brother said is not right, the group of old guys in Zongzheng Temple are the hoops on the emperor's head, they think they can control the Dayu royal family and many vassal kings, but they don't know that this is the way to take trouble, sooner or later their group of old guys will be cleaned up by the royal family." Mu Junhe pursed his lips and said disdainfully.

"Uncle Clan, why do you say such impolite things?" Mu Fengxiang looked at Mu Junhe in surprise.

In his opinion, anyone on this ship today can criticize Zongzheng Temple, but he should not speak disrespectfully to Zongzheng Temple, after all, if it wasn't for Zongzheng Temple, he would have been killed by the eagle dog of the royal family.

"Besides, our Mu Zongzheng Temple already existed before the founding of the Dayu Dynasty, and it can be regarded as a long history for hundreds of years, how could the emperor dare to risk the world's disapproval to do something to Zongzheng Temple?" Mu Fengxiang didn't believe Mu Junhe's statement at all, in his opinion, even if the emperor was really dissatisfied with Zongzheng Temple, he didn't dare to really do anything to Zongzheng Temple.

After all, Zongzheng Temple is jointly established by the entire royal family surnamed Mu and the royal family, once the emperor really wants to eradicate Zongzheng Temple, then all the vassal kings in the world will definitely raise troops to clear the monarch's side.

And when the time comes, after the so-called traitors are killed, no one dares to guarantee whether anyone will accidentally kill the emperor by mistake.

After all, there are not a few people who have been in China for thousands of years under the banner of the Qing monarch and finally wiped out the emperor.

This set of tricks can be regarded as a necessary skill of vassal kings in all dynasties. Regarding the doubts raised by Mu Fengxiang, Mu Junhe was too lazy to defend, as a person who had dealt with Zongzheng Temple, he knew much more about Zongzheng Temple than others.

In the eyes of the people of the world, the Zongzheng Temple, which is worthy of their worship and the most holy and enlightened, is just a tool used by a group of sanctimonious old guys to satisfy their selfish desires and control the world.

Just when Mu Fengxiang was about to continue to defend Zongzheng Temple, his afterglow suddenly caught sight of Mu Qingliang.

At this time, Mu Qingliang was squatting aside, staring at him and Mu Junhe with vicious eyes. He didn't expect that this Mu Jun would dare to be so rebellious to the person surnamed Mu, not only did he dare to be disrespectful to His Majesty, but he also slandered Zongzheng Temple like this.

"After I get out of danger, I will definitely report this matter to Zongzheng Temple, and I will have your good fruit to eat at that time!" Mu Qingliang thought to himself in his heart.

"Do you kid want to go to Zongzheng Temple to sue me and my uncle for the trick in the future?" Mu Fengxiang instantly guessed Mu Qingliang's thoughts.

"Brother Fengxiang, you're laughing, how dare I have a second thought!" Mu Qingliang hurriedly waved his hand and denied it.

"Hmph, if that's what you think, you might as well give it a try." Mu Fengxiang looked at Mu Qingliang with an evil smile and threatened.

"I had no intention of doing so!" Mu Qingliang was instigated again. Looking at the trembling Mu Qingliang Jingzi, he couldn't help but smile and said.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince of Tan Kingdom, you have done a great job of scaring the Prince of Qi Kingdom, look at him so much." Mu Qingliang, who was still worried that Mu Fengxiang would continue to make things difficult for him, suddenly heard someone in the crowd speaking for him, and he couldn't help but look up happily.

I saw a young man dressed in Confucian clothes walking up to his side and looking at him with kind eyes.

Mu Qingliang saw that Jing Zizheng was completely different from Li Yi, these killing gods, and immediately felt close to him.

But before he could thank Jing Zizheng, he heard Jing Zizheng continue.

"I think if the prince of Qi really goes to Zongzheng Temple to complain, my senior brother should have a way to shut him up in advance." As soon as these words came out, Jing Zizheng's image of a good person was shattered.

"Who are these people?" Mu Qingliang shouted wildly in his heart. At this time, he felt that the boatload of people in front of him were all crazy.

So he immediately put on an aggrieved and cowardly look, so that he could appear a little more humble.
