Chapter 928
"Mingxuan, you did a good job. This speed is much faster than I expected."

"I thought you'd have to wait and see before you could come back."

From afar, I saw the young man dismounting from his horse with the sack tied to his back, the Mu Da Guoshi nodded, and then greeted the idle Mu Xiuning to "invite" the old Western Merchant monarch in the sack back to the army tent, Zhan Ming Xuan Wenyan reached out and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "Hey, no, it's because of the nimble movements of the brothers."

"The subordinate rushed in and tied up someone."

"Oh, by the way, miss, this is for you." The boy who suddenly remembered something blinked his eyes, and while talking, he took out a palm-sized fine satin bag from his arms, and handed it to the Xuanyi in front of him. girl.

"When my subordinates rushed into the imperial court of the Western Shang Dynasty to arrest people, they saw that the little old man was trying to hide this thing in the mattress beside the bed just before he was knocked unconscious. Take it out too."

"Take a look and see if this thing is useful."

"Hey? There are not many things that can make the former king of a country so precious." Mu Xici raised his eyebrows and removed the slipknot on the cloth bag with his hands.

The fine silk and satin spread out, revealing a nearly moon-shaped gold-encrusted jade tablet wrapped inside. The little girl looked down at the fine and complicated foreign characters carved on the jade tablet, and after a long time, she pursed her lips and let out a sigh of relief. Let out a light snort.

——It’s no wonder that Hawulejiang had already forced the palace to rebel and made himself king, and he wanted to imprison his father in the imperial court, so he didn’t dare to kill his father and king, and cut grass and roots.

——It’s no wonder that the more than [-] Gyeonggi Guard | Guard | Army would rather be emphasized to the northwest frontier than submit to the new monarch.

——No wonder...the Western Shang Dynasty still has those two factions fighting against each other.

She originally thought it was because Hawulejiang was still young, his qualifications were shallow, and his political achievements and skills were not enough to convince the public; now it seems... It turned out that the old Western Shang monarch secretly kept an extra hand.

Gee!
Master Mu smacked his lips silently, raised his hand and patted the young man's shoulder in a short while, and then calmly said, "Mingxuan, this time, you really did a great job."

"Ah?" Zhan Mingxuan was startled when he heard this, and then raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, "So, miss, this thing is..."

"Well, if I'm not mistaken about the characters on it," Mu Xici nodded, playing with the Xishang soldier talisman with one hand, smiling playfully, "This jade order should be the Xishang Jingji guard that Hauljiang has been looking for for a long time. Guard|Army Talisman."

"This thing can mobilize the remaining 2 elite troops in Xishang territory."

"That is to say, right now we have not only captured the old monarch who is the only one who can threaten Hauljiang's Ninth Five-Year position in the entire Western Shang territory, we have also obtained the soldier talisman that he has been thinking about day and night and searching hard for months. .”

The little girl said with a feigned emotion: "It seems that this time, the new king of the Western Merchants has no choice but to surrender—"

"Report—Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the imperial court. At midnight last night, two groups of soldiers sneaked into the capital and made a big disturbance in the imperial court. Not only did they damage many arsenals in the city, but they also knocked out the servants of the inner court. Kidnapped the Supreme King!"

In the camp of the Western Merchants army, a messenger soldier staggered into the king's tent with his head down.

A few days ago, Hauljiang, who had just put on the king's armor and prepared to lead the army to catch people in the quicksand, frowned at the sound, then turned his eyes impatiently and gouged out the soldier's eyes, his eyes were gloomy and cold: "You That is to say, there were Qianping people who attacked Yuecheng at night last night."

"And dismantled the arsenal and took away the father?"

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty!" The soldier trembled under the pressure of that gaze, his knees softened, and he knelt down on the ground with a "plop".

"Right now, there is internal turmoil in the imperial capital, and several princes headed by King Youdulu are yelling that you are not good enough to govern and are not worthy of being a king. King Zuoyulu asks you, please return to the palace as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation! "

After the soldier finished speaking, he kowtowed violently, but Hauljiang didn't rush to respond after hearing it.

He just stared quietly at the soldier who delivered the order for a long time, until the soldier's body was covered with cold sweat almost piercing his back, and then he lightly fished the corner of his eyes with a half-smile: "Oh? You Dulu King said that this king is not worthy of being a king. King Zuo Yulu wants me to return to the palace as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation?"

"Yes, yes!" The soldier gritted his teeth and forced out a few words, "My lord, my lord said that the situation is urgent, and the lords of them really can't handle it, so..."

"Bastard!" Hauljiang suddenly interrupted the soldier, flipped his hand and knocked down the wine cup on the case. The wine cup splashed a large amount of smoke and dust when it fell to the ground. He raised his jaw and lowered his eyes condescendingly, "Spy from the front line Come to report this morning, the people of Qianping fell into the quicksand as early as yesterday afternoon."

"Out of the 3 army, at least [-] people have been trapped in quicksand and cannot move, and the remaining nearly [-] people are still searching for a way out in Kalmala."

"—Tell this king, how did the [-] soldiers and horses lost in the desert fly into the imperial court out of thin air? Is the situation in Yuecheng really as urgent as they said, or is it his left hand?" King Yu Lu intentionally lied about the military situation in order to make this king lose his success?!"

"You still say that the Supreme King is missing... Who knows if those restless people in the court deliberately hid him, so that they can blame this king!"

"This, this, this... Your Majesty, you have misunderstood your Majesty. Your Highness is determined not to lie about the military situation. The villain came out of the Imperial City. The Supreme King is indeed missing, and the Moon City is indeed in chaos now!"

The soldier kowtowed anxiously, and knocked his head on the ground with a "bang bang" sound, and in the blink of an eye, his head was full of blood.

"Really?" Seeing that he looked like he was lying, Hauljiang couldn't help turning his head suspiciously and glanced at the only remaining lieutenant general in his army, "The land of quicksand—"

"Your Majesty, the spies in our army did indeed see the figure of Qianping in that piece of quicksand." The general understood it, immediately lowered his eyes and raised his arms, and respectfully saluted the young man, "And the number Quite a few."

"However, Qianping has always had a large number of soldiers and horses. Therefore, I am not sure whether there are three or two thousand people among the more than 2000 people who were lucky enough to bypass the quicksand and find the main road. city."

"Then according to what you said, maybe what he said is also true?" Hauljiang frowned and murmured, and the lieutenant slightly lowered his jaw when he heard the words: "It's not impossible."

"After all, they are mediocre people who are used to being very cunning."

"The incident in Moon City may have been caused by them on purpose, so that your Majesty will be in chaos, so as to buy them more time to escape from the Quicksand."

"——You know, quicksand doesn't really swallow everything. They have been fighting us for so many years, and maybe one or two people who can investigate and solve the law will emerge."

Hauljiang raised his eyebrows slightly: "So? Do you think this king should go back to Moon City first, or go to Quicksand first?"

 Ming Xuan made great contributions, although he misunderstood the true meaning of Ah Ci asking him to kidnap people (but the effect was the same), but he made great contributions! !
