Chapter 354 Chapter 357
Xing Mofei showed a look of grief and indignation, and said fiercely: "After my emperor Fuyun was defeated by Tie Le's surprise attack, he still didn't know that Pei thief, whom he regarded as his friend, secretly instigated him, and even sent someone to ask for help from Pei thief, but was He sent two groups of soldiers and horses to chase after him, and they made trouble, after repeated battles, only a few thousand remnants of our emperor escaped from the encirclement, this enmity, no one in Tuyuhun can forget."

Only then did Shen Mu and Xu Ziling understand the grievances between Tie Le, Pei Ju, and Tuyuhun. No wonder Fu Qian went south to the Central Plains, so he wanted to find Tie Le's number one master, Qu Ao, for a life-and-death battle.

Ba Fenghan said casually again: "Oh! Bamou almost forgot that Qu Ao is mine tonight. I fought him just now. You probably don't know about it!"

Xing Mofei sighed: "It's not up to me to decide this matter, if Qu Ao knows that he is so popular, he may regret this trip." Then he stood up, clasped his fists and said: "Little brother has a life, so it is not suitable to stay for a long time. Brother Ba's respect, my younger brother will truthfully pass it on to our lord, as for how to decide, it is up to our lord to decide."

After Xing Mo flew away, Shen Mu smiled and said, "Why don't we wait outside the door and intercept Qu Ao and kill him first, wouldn't it be a one-and-done one?"

Ba Fenghan nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean. But it's not as enjoyable as having hundreds of people cheering and cheering."

Suddenly there was a knock at the door, and a woman about 23 or [-] years old appeared outside the door, wearing a folded plain yellow skirt, and a pair of light green embroidered shoes with phoenix ornaments on the toe exposed from the bottom of the skirt, unlike Shang Xiuxun or Shen Luoyan, etc. teach people to think that she is beautiful at first glance, but she has a unique charm and temperament that attracts you deeply.

Her demeanor is calm and sophisticated, demure and dignified; but her focused and firm eyes make people feel that she is not only beautiful and charming, but also has the decisiveness and boldness to prevent men from being afraid, fearless, full of confidence in herself, and seems to be confident in what she has done. There is no doubt about the correctness of everything.

Glossy black hair, white and delicate skin, slender and well-proportioned figure, deep and slender phoenix eyes under the beautiful and curved eyebrows, combined with the faint natural fragrance from the body, constitute a charming picture of beauty.

But what attracted Shen Mu's attention the most was the slant on her back, and a section of whisk that seemed to be woven with red silk was exposed on her left shoulder, which made Shen Mu immediately grasp her identity.

It is indeed Li Shimin's Tiance Mansion's outstanding female master who is reputed to be the "top of the general list", and Li Jing's beautiful wife, Hong Funu!

Her indifferent and sharp eyes focused on Shen Mu's face, and said in a tone without any emotion: "Are you Kou Zhong?"

Shen Mu moved aside, allowing Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan's sharp eyes to fall directly on her, and said in a deep voice: "It's my servant, should I call this girl Mrs. Li or sister-in-law?"

The stern eyes of the red-haired girl looked at Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan without fear, and when she heard Shen Mu's words, she seemed to flash a mocking look, and said coldly: "That depends on you I'm at my own place."

The three of them were all stunned, and faintly felt that it was inappropriate, otherwise she would not have spoken in such an impolite tone.

The red-haired girl's gaze finally fell on Xu Ziling's body, her phoenix eyes flashed with wisdom, her tone turned soft and she said, "The Duke of Qin has something important to meet with you two, so he specially sent this concubine to invite you. The matter is very important. Don't refuse, both of you."

Ba Fenghan didn't look at her anymore, he raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp.

Xu Ziling said calmly: "Young Master Zhong, let's go! Everything is up to you."

Shen Mu was silent for a while, before finally agreeing.

Hong Fu Nu pushed the door open, and whispered softly, "Go in! I hope that when you come out, you will still be Jing Lang's good brother, not an irreconcilable enemy."

Shen Mu glanced at her indifferently before stepping into the door and closing the door smoothly.

This is the last wing at the east end of the third floor of the North Wing, nearly twice as large as theirs.

Li Shimin stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, staring at the fish pond in the garden below.

Hearing Shen Mu's voice, Li Shimin sighed, "Is there still room for things to turn around?"

Shen Mu came to the round table in the middle, stared at his majestic and straight back, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Shimin is referring to which aspect?"

Li Shimin turned around slowly, looked deeply at Shen Mu and said, "How many years have we not met each other? Zhong Shao, you have become more powerful than I imagined. No matter how you act, you have the demeanor of a generation of masters. No wonder you are full of enemies. Still no one can do anything to you, but you will play tricks on them instead."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "Compared to His Royal Highness Qin Wang, what is the next thing. Qin Wang raised troops from Taiyuan and defeated the old generals Song Laosheng and Qu Tutong successively. It is a strong base that can be attacked, retreated and defended. Then they marched west to Longyou to consolidate Guanzhong, and drove the army of Xue Ju and his son back to their old nest. Now who dares to underestimate your Li family, no one can match such achievements."

Li Shimin said: "My Li family has been a general for many times and has a deep foundation. As long as the teacher is famous and the strategy is correct, victory is a matter of course. How can you be alone like Zhong Shao, but you can turn your hands into clouds, turn your hands into rain, and change everything. The situation in the world. Ha! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, how about sitting down and having a glass of wine?”

Shen Mu had no choice but to sit down.

Li Shimin raised the jug, poured wine for him, and said with a smile: "I'm still happy that you called me Shimin, our friendship is not just a casual acquaintance. If it weren't for the help of your brothers back then, my Li family might not be what it is today Scenery."

Then he sat down, raised his glasses in salute with both hands and said: "This cup is for Xie Zhongshao to help Xie Zhongshao at the Feima Ranch, so that Xiuning will not be caught in Li Tianfan and Shen Luoyan's schemes."

Hot attack.

Shen Mu squeezed his throat and shouted: "Good wine! Isn't it poisonous?"

Li Shimin laughed and said: "Young Master Zhong is still cynical. With your current skill, what kind of poisoned wine can hurt you? I, Li Shimin, are not the one to use such methods."

Shen Mu coughed dryly: "It turns out that good wine is like poisonous wine, choking my seven orifices to spit fire."

Li Shimin said happily: "This is the strong wine called "Throat Drunk" that I brought from Guanzhong."

Seeing him refilling the wine again, Shen Mu said with lingering fear, "Why did you drink this glass?"

Li Shimin smiled and said: "This second cup is for Wang Shichong. If he hadn't had your help, he might have become a lone army sticking to Yanshi, but now it is very possible to defeat Li Mi. Zhong Shao's current situation is achievable." A person who controls the situation and makes a difference.”

Shen Mu said: "Wouldn't it be more appropriate to say that it's a toast for Li Shimin?"

Li Shimin said solemnly: "If you want to drink, you can only drink it for my father. Alas! Sometimes I really don't know the relationship with you. If you are willing to change your mind and work hard for my Li family, I, Li Shimin, will guarantee it with my head. I will treat you two poorly."

Shen Mu's eyes were pierced with divine light, and he said slowly: "Brother Shimin has decided not to be inferior to others."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice, "It's still too early to tell. Now the situation in the world has become more and more clear, and it is clear that it is the dispute between Kansai and Kanto. May I ask you a question as a friend?" , what are your chances of winning against Li Mi?"

Shen Mu said calmly, "I will not be able to answer your question until the day after tomorrow."

Li Shimin showed a thoughtful expression, but did not ask any further questions, saying, "Of course, Li Mi's account is full of fierce generals, and there is someone among them that you must not ignore."

Shen Mu frowned and said, "Are you referring to Wang Bodang or Pei Renji?"

Li Shimin shook his head slowly, and said: "Although these two men are famous, they are not as famous as Xu Shiji. This man joined the Wagang Army at the age of 17, and now he is the General of Youwuhou. Attacks must be conquered. Be humble and sincere, be strict with yourself, and be lenient with others, so you can make soldiers use their lives, which is a rare general."

Shen Mu said in astonishment: "It turned out to be him! Fortunately, you reminded me that because he couldn't do anything to us in Xingyang back then, I never cared about him. How dangerous!"

After Li Shimin looked at him with awe for a while, he sighed and said: "For a person like Zhong Shao who is willing to accept what others say, I, Li Shimin, must also consider myself as good as I am, and I must learn from you."

Shen Mu showed a sad look for the first time, and smiled wryly: "Don't you also learn good things from others? People who refuse to listen to advice become emperors, but they are just another stupid emperor like Yang Guang. Alas! Now is the era of peace, we must be close friends, at least we will not become enemies."

Li Shimin stared blankly at the clear liquor in the cup, and said in a low voice, "That means you have decided to bring out the 'Duke Yang's Treasure House'!"

Shen Mu didn't answer and asked instead: "This time we met, did Li Jing know about it?"

Li Shimin's tiger eyes sparkled, but his tone was as calm as possible, and said: "Whether Li Jing knows or not, what does it matter?"

Shen Mu smiled calmly: "I just want to ask Brother Shimin one thing. Did Wang Shichong issue the ban on going down the city last night, did it come from Brother Shimin?"

Li Shimin straightened his shoulders slightly, and immediately gave birth to an invisible aura of domineering. He laughed and said: "Good guess, if my brother denies it, it will be too boring."

Shen Mu couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said: "King Qin is really a good friend, in that situation, we can't escape even if we want to."

Li Shimin said indifferently: "Brother Kou is a coward. Since he has the courage to stroke the tiger's beard, he is naturally not afraid of that tiger!" Then he said in a deep voice: "Brother Ziling, why didn't you come to see me with you?"

Shen Mu looked at him coldly and said, "With King Qin's intelligence, he should have guessed the reason."

Li Shimin was silent for a while, with hurt in his eyes, and said in a sigh: "Is it because he doesn't want to see the negotiation between you and me break down and turn against each other?"

Shen Mu's face became extremely cold, his eyes sparkled, he stared at Li Shimin and said, "From the moment I stepped out of the room, King Qin, you don't have to miss our old love anymore. In fact, you have already dealt with us. In this troubled world Among them, not only friends will become enemies, but father and son brothers will also inevitably become enemies, King Qin should have a special understanding of this."

Li Shimin raised his glass and said with a long smile: "Ambition! Let me offer another cup to brother Kou. From the moment you step out of the room, I will deal with you with all my strength. I will never hold back the slightest hand, because you and brother Ziling are both me. The person Li Shimin respects the most."

Shen Mu raised his glass in return and said, "Didn't the King of Qin lay down hundreds of knives and axes waiting to kill me outside?"

Li Shimin almost spouted wine for it, laughed and said: "You trust me to meet, how can I do this unrighteousness."

"Ding"!
Two cups collide.These two outstanding figures who are both ruling the destiny of the world and all-powerful, finally broke.

When Shen Mu came back, he turned a blind eye to the winks from the beautiful prostitutes he met, and went straight downstairs, intending to inform Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan of the situation of his split with Li Shimin at the first time, but met Qu Ao's eyes shot fiercely, staring at Ba Fenghan who was five feet away.

The two stared at each other indifferently.

At this time, most of the people had arrived on the street, and they were all silent, waiting for the result.

It turned out that there had been a fierce battle here just now, Shen Mu and Xu Ziling came to Ba Fenghan's side.

Qu Ao's body suddenly shook violently again, and the blood on his face faded.

There was a wave of exclamation from the bystanders. Now everyone knew that Qu Ao had lost, but they didn't know where he was injured.

But the answer was revealed in an instant, blood seeping out from under Qu Ao's left flank.

Qu Ao didn't tap acupuncture points to stop the bleeding, first glanced at the three disciples and his subordinates who had turned ashen-faced, and sighed up to the sky: "The hero comes out of a young man, Qumou admires it very much. Now return to Tie Le immediately, and don't set foot again in the rest of your life." Central Plains."

This oath is to announce that he himself will withdraw from all disputes in the Central Plains.

This is what makes Qu Ao so sophisticated and wise, so even though Fuqian and the others who have deep hatred with their Tiele people, they cannot openly pursue them due to the rules of the rivers and lakes.

After Qu Ao said, he flew on his horse and led the group of his subordinates away like a whirlwind.

Ba Fenghan and the three were about to leave, when someone among the bystanders laughed and said: "How could Brother Ba just leave like this without any explanation?"

The three of them followed the prestige and saw Fuqian coming out of the crowd walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, and came to the center of the royal road, looking at the three of them with a smile, there was an imposing manner that was not angry but mighty, forcing people to come.

Hundreds of people packed the sidewalk, all eyes were on him.

Everyone knew that he was the one who had an appointment to fight with Qu Ao tonight, but now Ba Fenghan cut off the head soup, this tone was hard for anyone to swallow, so they all guessed that the good show was yet to come.

Shen Mu glanced over and saw Tu Liza watching the battle among the crowd, he laughed and said, "Brother Fu, don't get angry about this, it's because old man Qu joined forces with others to attack us on the Luoyang Bridge earlier, so Only then will we come and go and send him back a big gift. This matter can be witnessed by Tuli Khan, because he also participated in the battle."

After a pause, he continued: "What's more, we have already asked your subordinate, Brother Xing, to say hello to Brother Fu, but because of time constraints, there is no time to wait for Brother Fu's reply!"

These two words can give Fuqian enough face and let him have a step down.

Shen Mu is indeed a man of eloquence, and he took the opportunity to make a negative mark on Tuli.

Tuli's eyes were cold, and he was a little dumbfounded. He took two steps forward, slapped the eagle gun on his shoulder proudly, and said with a sneer: "Brother Kou reminded me of the past, and it immediately brought back my memory. Unfortunately, I didn't get there in time Fighting against Brother Kou, Brother Kou hurriedly slipped away. Now that the moon is in the sky, how can we miss such an auspicious time, why not let me learn Brother Kou's mysterious sword skills!"

Tu Li suddenly took the matter into his own hands, and took the initiative to challenge, and the road turned back, which immediately caused a commotion.

Most of the bystanders didn't know who he was, and they asked others in succession. There was a quarrel and the atmosphere was warm.

Fu Qian shouted: "Wait a minute!"

He didn't raise his breath and shout, but he stood out amidst the clamor of hundreds of people, making everyone's ear drums hum, and the audience immediately became silent.

Tully looked at Fuqian in dissatisfaction and frowned, "What advice does the prince have?"

Fu Qian let out a burst of laughter, his eyes flashed, he ignored Tuli, clasped his fists and said to Shen Mu and the others: "The three of you misunderstood. Just now, Fu Mou just wanted to invite the three of you back to Manqing Court for a drink to celebrate the victory, there is no other meaning. "

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling looked at each other in dismay, they didn't expect him to be so friendly, and felt a little bewildered.

Ba Fenghan stood still like a mountain, secretly adjusting his breath.

He had a very narrow victory just now, and he also suffered a lot of internal injuries, so he had to fight for every moment to heal his injuries.

Xu Ziling whispered to Shen Mu: "I don't see Li Shimin and his people."

Shen Mu was very surprised, Li Shimin shouldn't miss this battle logically, unless he quietly retreated at the same time when Qu Ao retreated with hatred.Since they were all focused on Ba Fenghan and Qu Ao at that time, they didn't pay attention to whether other people left the stage.

Li Shimin must have his reasons for doing so.If it were before the breakup, Shen Mu would never have been troubled by this, but now he has to take every step of the way, and Li Jing's warning is still in his ears, so he can't be careless.

Tuli over there saw that after Xu Ziling said a few words in Shen Mu's ear, Shen Mu showed a thoughtful expression, and his eyes scanned the crowd back and forth, obviously what he said had nothing to do with him; Furious, but also awe-inspiring.

If it were anyone who was challenged by his name, even if he wasn't scared to death, he would still have to be fully alert.How can they be distracted by other things like the two of them, it can be seen that their courage and ability are beyond the reach of ordinary masters.

But at this time, he was riding a tiger, passed through the trees that separated the imperial road and the pedestrian road, came to the imperial road, and shouted to the three of them: "Brother Fu's original intention, it has nothing to do with me. If you are willing to kowtow and admit defeat, Kou Zhong , so what if I let you drink and chat with Brother Fu!"

Shen Mu seemed to be paying attention to what Tuli said at this time, and smiled happily: "So Khan, you are so fond of joking. I can't wait for you to come to your door. Even if you immediately kneel down and admit your mistake Beg for mercy, and I won't forgive you either."

After saying that, he strode forward and forced towards Tuli.

Before he could take action, a savage murderous aura surged past. With such a fierce and clever character as Tuli, he had to immediately pull out the Fuying Spear and wait for it.

Everyone on the sidewalk crowded with hundreds of people was waiting, and the noise stopped.

The most impressive thing about Shen Mu is that his bravery seems to be born, and he has created this kind of incomparable momentum naturally and casually.

Tuli who took the initiative to challenge turned into a passive one.
