The princess unceremoniously occupied the tent of the Chinese army and immediately issued a series of orders.

There was also a larger army of Tosuke Province stopped a hundred miles away, and the princess wrote a succinct but strong letter, ordering them to come and defend the Jiehe River, which was stamped with the seal of the princess and the commander of Tokaikoku.

Xin Taifu's more than 400 guards were divided into dozens of groups, and with the same number of Dongjie soldiers, they rushed to the major cities, ordering the defenders and the people to change their flags and pledge allegiance to the Xijie Kingdom.

Orders were given one after another, as if there were a hundred think tanks making ideas for the princess, and each of her orders was carefully considered, and it was clear what cities, key passes, and armies were within a radius of five hundred miles.

The commander of Dongjie Kingdom stood beside the princess respectfully, and was responsible for stamping the handsome seal on the paper, and he was so impressed in his heart that the last bit of shame disappeared, and even found a high-sounding reason for his grovel: only the princess of Xijie Kingdom could keep Dongjie Kingdom, and the king of Dongjie had fled to the imperial capital, and the tens of thousands of troops left behind needed a real leader.

The princess put down her pen, thought for a while, waved her hand, and all the generals in the tent left the tent backwards, and only a few were allowed to stay.

The princess did not take off her helmet until this time, her head was covered with sweat, her face was red and white, and she was obviously extremely tired, and she was so tired that even the talisman could not be relieved.

"I want my soldiers to be treated as heroes, Third Master, and I'll leave this matter to you. The princess sat down, and said weakly that she finally did not have to pretend to be tough.

Pan Sanye replied, he was also very tired and injured, but this was the trust given by the princess, he only felt honored, and there would never be a word of excuse.

There were only two people left in front of the princess, Mu Xingqiu and Xin Youtao. In the past, this was impossible to live in, and the princess had to abide by a series of rules and regulations of the royal family. Now, she is in charge of her own affairs and doesn't have to pay attention to any rules, but she still has to keep her brother by her side.

Xin Youtao hurriedly took out the towel and sent it to her sister.

The princess wiped her sweat and smiled at Mu Xingqiu: "This is the distress of mortals, often having more than enough heart and not enough strength, Taoist priests will not be like me." ”

Mu Xingqiu also smiled. Now he doesn't really look like a Taoist priest, he is wearing a soldier's clothes, his whole body is dirty, and there are obvious burnt marks on his clothes, only a bun and a hairpin can prove his identity, but the princess is right. His face was not clean, but it was not tired.

"You've won, you've won. Mu Xingqiu congratulated, his blood had completely subsided, and the unique calm of a Taoist priest had been restored.

"It may sound hypocritical, but I sincerely hope that this victory also belongs to you, to the Pangshan Daotong. ”

"Pangshan Daotong has achieved its purpose. We are also grateful for the Princess's help and support. ”

The princess doesn't know spells, let alone mind illusions, but she can still guess the other party's mind, even if it's a Taoist priest, "Do you think I shouldn't do it?"

Mu Xingqiu shook his head, "You did what you should do, I am not a member of the royal family, just an ordinary Taoist priest." Not qualified to make irresponsible remarks. ”

"No, I hope you can say nonsense, just as the last favor for me, I want to know what kind of person I am in the eyes of the Taoist. The princess squinted at her brother beside her, "Youtao can't do it, he has never been fair and honest in front of me." ”

"Huh, when will I ......" Halfway through the words, Xin Youtao had to admit that his sister's words were not wrong. "I'm your own brother. ”

The corners of the princess's mouth raised slightly, which was an answer to her younger brother, her eyes were still staring at Mu Xingqiu, although her face was pale. But there was no fatigue in his eyes.

Mu Xingqiu thought for a while, "You are ready, just wait for this victory, everyone, all wars, are your tools." ”

The princess did not deny that the whole plan had been hidden in her heart alone, and now she wanted to say it, not only to gain the trust of the Taoist priests, but also to confide, "People think that the war can win a qiē, but in fact it is not, only those who can use the war can win a qiē, so there are so many soldiers who throw their heads and spill blood, but in the end they can only get a small reward." The royal family is neither the most courageous nor the wisest, but we know when and how to claim a great victory. ”

Mu Xingqiu didn't react, but Xin Youtao blushed a little, what the princess said was a truth he understood, but he had never practiced it well, and at the same time, as a Taoist priest, he vaguely felt that this practice was a bit despicable.

"Don't think of us as too bad people. The princess's smile is always pleasant, it's her ability, and it's her disguise, "It's the only thing we're good at, just like Taoist priests are good at spells." Someone has to do these things, either me or someone else. If I die on the battlefield, the person who did these things is Mrs. Xin, and if I don't die, he will be redundant. ”

"But you didn't kill him. ”

The princess did not kill Mrs. Xin, who "escaped during the war", at the gate of the barracks, but imprisoned his entire family.

The princess sighed, "There is not much left in the Xijie Kingdom, I don't want to lead to another split, the influence of the Taifu family is extremely deep, and it can't be killed by killing someone." Today the Purple Fu Army has a grudge against him, and tomorrow he may regret it, and I want to guarantee that Xijieguo is still a whole, and can only endure Taifu's existence. He will still be my enemy in the future, but he will be a cautious enemy, and he will no longer openly oppose me, which is more cost-effective than creating a new enemy without scruples. ”

Mu Xingqiu had nothing to say, just as it was difficult to understand the thoughts of the High Daoist, he couldn't accept the royal family's code of conduct, in fact, he was glad that he didn't need to be involved in these things, "If someone must need to grab the fruits of victory, I will also choose Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

The princess smiled, "Believe me, I'm only the first person to start, not the only one, the armies of the Holy Rune Dynasty and the vassal states are coming non-stop at this moment, and soon the city will become more crowded." ”

Xin Youtao was taken aback, "The battle is over, what are they going to do?"

"Come and share the honor of war. "And I have already invited them, remember the wounded soldiers who went to the south, and the armies will rush to see them back." ”

Xin Youtao was more and more surprised, he had been with his sister after the war, but he left for a while when he went to entrust Xiao Qingtao to send a message to Mu Xingqiu, but he didn't expect his sister to have done so many things.

"Then you have arranged to receive the cities of Dongjie Country?"

"I can't say it's an arrangement. I have only written letters of condolence to the nobles of the Western Sect who have fled to various cities in the Eastern Provinces, and I will not refuse if they are willing to help me. ”

Xin Youtao shook his head in admiration, "King Dongjie must regret that he escaped too early. ”

The princess lowered her eyelids, "There is nothing to regret, he is afraid of war, so let him stay away from war." ”

"The war is not over. Mu Xingqiu said.

The princess nodded. "Of course, the fiasco of the demon soldiers has affected the morale of the whole army, and the giant demon king will definitely do his best to attack Broken Flow City next time, so I need the five hundred miles of land in Dongjie Country as a rear, and I also need the armies of various countries to strengthen their strength. They came to snatch the fruits of victory, but I will leave them behind and beat down more of them. ”

Mu Xingqiu understood the true intention of the princess to invite herself, and bowed slightly, "Zuo Liuying used the Broken Flow City of Xijie Country and the military and civilians to attract the giant demon king Qi Supreme, and the princess used the Pangshan Taoist to win a victory, which is very fair. In the final battle, we will still cooperate happily. ”

About the meaning of "utilization". It was what the princess and Mu Xingqiu said when they first met, and they both remembered it, nodding their heads to each other, showing a tacit smile, Xin Youtao was confused, and felt that these two people were too straightforward to speak, and they were not the same as usual.

"I'm going back to the city, and I'll wait for news that the princess is in control of the army. Mu Xingqiu said goodbye. Turning to Xin Youtao, "What about you, stay here or go back with me?"

Xin Youtao only thought for a moment, "Sister, I also have to go back to the city to see you." ”

"Go, you are a Pangshan Taoist priest, cherish this title, this is more valuable than the identity of a prince. The princess looked at her brother with pity. It's rare to show your true feelings.

Mu Xingqiu couldn't help but think that the princess didn't care about the cost of Xin Youtao, and when the harvest came, there might be more intrigues and tricks.

Leaving the camp and flying into the sky, Xin Youtao frequently turned around and looked back. "I'm really worried about leaving my sister alone. ”

"She knows what she's doing. Mu Xingqiu persuaded, "She is like a fish in water here, there is a group of loyal soldiers around her, and no one can touch her." ”

The celebration in Broken Flow City had just begun, and the two Taoist priests flying through the sky caused bursts of cheers, many of whom recognized "General Mu" and followed them until long after they landed.

There were only a few Pangshan Taoist priests in the courtyard of the inn, and the other Taoist priests were not there, Yang Qingyin snorted, "General Mu is back, haven't you been promoted to be a marshal?"

Mu Xingqiu shrugged, "The marshal's helmet is too fancy, I don't like it." Everyone laughed, and he asked, "What about the others? Why are they gone?"

After the battle, they left, saying that they were not interested in seeing Zuo Liuying. Yang Qingyin let out a long hum, as if he was a little confused, "I haven't fought enough, but they said that they don't want to participate in the war anymore, and they want to go back and concentrate on the tribulation." Those loose cultivators also left, saying that they were chivalrous and did not ask for anything in return, so I gave them a few magic weapons. ”

"They just don't want to die here. Shen Hao opened his mouth and said, a total of forty-three supporting Taoist priests came, nearly twenty of them died outside the city, their inner dan was taken away, but the corpse remained in a foreign land forever;

Pang Shan also had a loss, and only eight of the eleven inhaling Daoists remained, and everyone looked at each other, and no one mentioned the name of the deceased.

Zuo Liuying's door opened, and Lan Qizhang walked out of it, "The seat needs a Dharma altar, nineteen zhang three feet seven inches high, square at the top, and seven feet seven inches wide. ”

Zuo Liuying is finally going to take action in person, which means that the Patriarch Pagoda has been repaired, although Lan Qizhang's words are very cold, and he does not have half a word of condolences to the Taoist priests who have made great contributions, everyone is still relieved, they have shouldered the heavy responsibility for too long, and they can finally be transferred to the more powerful senior Taoist priests.

Lan Qizhang raised his right hand and held an egg-sized thing, crumpled, like a dehydrated fruit, and he couldn't see what it looked like at all, "This is the heart of an ancient demon race, hidden deep underground for more than 100,000 years, dug out by the demon clan, and awakened by demon magic. ”

He stretched out his arm and handed the small heart to Mu Xingqiu, "You say it belongs to you." ”

Lan Qizhang stepped out of the way, and Zuo Liuying himself walked out of the room, placing his right hand on his chest and abdomen, holding the little Patriarch Tower.
