Destiny Phoenix

Chapter 566 The War Renewed
Ten days later, the capital Tanzhou.

Mo Zhanhua has returned to Nanchu Palace.

That day, he was tricked into not catching up with Feng Qingyao, so he returned to Lizhou first.Only after seeing Zhan Ying did he know that Gu Changci had not received the news that he was going to Luoyang, but had spread the news about the changes in Tanzhou to Lizhou.

By chance, they missed all the clues.

As soon as he entered the palace, the news that Xiliang was aggressively attacking the southern Chu border spread into the hall.The crown prince Ma Jian, who was in charge of supervising the country, stepped down from the dragon chair, bowed to him respectfully in front of all the court officials, and begged him to lead the expedition.

He intended to refuse, and the old emperor, who didn't want to hear about the war, dragged his sick body to the main hall with Ruijing's support.

"Mo Aiqing, I know that your trip to Jingnan was extremely difficult, and now that you have just returned to Tanzhou, you should indeed be allowed to rest for a while. But the border battle is no small matter, and I can't rest assured that I will leave it to others."

Mo Zhanhua showed embarrassment.

He had expected that there would be a trap when entering the palace this time, and he was ready to turn against Ma Jian, but he never expected that the person who would come out would be the old emperor.In this palace, he was the only person he could not refuse.

"Thanks to Your Majesty's love, I have received the decree." Mo Zhanhua saluted and took over the decree.

Coming out of the palace, he avoided Ma Jian's eyes and ears and went to Gu Changci's mansion.

It was May, and there was a drizzle in the sky. Gu Changci was dressed in white and stood alone in the gazebo.The wind blows, the clothes are fluttering, and the cold eyes are looking at the sparkling water not far away, and I don't know what I am thinking.

Hearing footsteps, he turned his head slowly.

"Brother, why are you here?" Seeing that it was Mo Zhanhua, he was surprised.

He knew that when Mo Zhanhua returned to Tanzhou this morning, according to the usual practice, ministers who were away on business had to go to the palace to report the situation when they returned to Beijing.He thought about it later, when he came out of the palace, he would go to his palace to meet him.

No, he came in person.

Mo Zhanhua threw the imperial decree in his hand on the stone table, "I will leave Tanzhou tomorrow, and I have something to ask you."

"Tomorrow?" Gu Changci stepped forward to open the imperial decree to read.

It's okay if you don't look at it, but you are even more surprised when you look at it, "Xiliang aggressively invaded our northwest border, how could it be such a coincidence? If you don't fight sooner or later, brother entered Tanzhou with his front foot, and he came with his back foot?"

To put it bluntly, it was a coincidence, and to put it bluntly, it was simply a conspiracy.

"Knowing that it's a conspiracy, I have no choice but to go when the emperor comes forward." Mo Zhanhua sighed, with a heaviness that had never been seen on his clear and solemn face. "I came here to ask, during my absence in Tanzhou, apart from Ma Jian being the crown prince, is there anything else going on in court? I made a detour in front of the Fengfu gate on my way into the palace, and found the gate was locked. Has their family arrived in Tanzhou yet?"

Mentioning this, Gu Changci also felt strange.

It has been more than three months since the last heavy rain. It is said that Fengxiang's family should have arrived in Tanzhou long ago.But not only did they not arrive, even Feng Qi, who was in charge of protecting them, had no news recently.

He sent people to investigate along Fengzhong, but they didn't find any news.

"It's no wonder." Knowing that Prime Minister Feng hadn't arrived in Tanzhou, Mo Zhanhua probably understood.

Someone threatened the lives of Feng Xiang's family and made Feng Qingyao go to the danger alone.But the crux of the problem was where did the other party ask her to go?After returning from Lizhou, he searched all the way, but there was no trace of her.

Inadvertently, Gu Changci saw the dragon jade pendant hanging on his waist.

"The jade talisman worn by brother belongs to Miss Feng?" If he read correctly, this jade talisman is the most vicious dragon cup of the Yun clan!
　Don't worry baby who misses Brother Banli, Brother Banli will come out tomorrow
