My country is dying

Chapter 364

"So you understand?" Hou Junli looked at her.

Qi Moxuan was silent for a moment and said: "I just know that the emperor risked his life to do these things not for her own sake. Before blaming the emperor, the regent might as well ask himself first. Responsibility, is the regent even more dereliction of duty?"

"Qi Moxuan, don't talk about it." Mi Le looked at him, "The regent has the position of the regent. If you really want to pursue it, it is true that I didn't think carefully about this matter..."

"What is the emperor blaming himself for? The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the open. No matter how well-prepared we are, it is impossible to be fully prepared. After all, the emperor has only been in contact with the government for less than a year. How can he plan everything carefully? The first emperor reigned for more than [-] years. In the past year, he has been plotted repeatedly, not to mention that the emperor has not yet been in charge of the government, and if he retreats ten thousand steps, the emperor must take precautions and calculate everything, so what are the auxiliary ministers and the commander of the imperial army doing?"

"It seems that Mr. Qi really put himself in the emperor's shoes, so I would like to ask Mr. Qi, in the forest full of assassins, how did Mr. Qi escape the siege and save the emperor without martial arts?" Hou Junli asked.

Qi Moxuan smiled lightly, and looked at Hou Junli: "Opportunity is made by nature."

"Oh? How is it natural?"

Qi Moxuan smiled, but didn't speak.

Hou Junli immediately took a step forward and looked at him, already in a scrutinizing posture: "Is it Tian Cheng, or Master Qi has ulterior motives?"

"Prince Regent, the day before yesterday we rolled down the hillside and fell into this lake to save our lives. What's more, Lord Qi found me later, and these two days, if there was no Lord Qi, I would have died a long time ago. No more guarantees!"

"Fell into the lake?" Hou Junli stared at Mi Le deeply, his voice low.

Mi Le didn't know why the air pressure around him suddenly dropped, but he felt that his downcast gaze made people breathless.

"Not only did he fall into the lake, the emperor had a high fever for a day, and he almost couldn't wake up." Qi Moxuan looked at Hou Junli, "Now, does the regent want to blame the emperor?"

Hou Junli finally slowly moved his gaze away from Mi Le's face, and landed on Qi Moxuan, his pair of phoenix eyes were dark and cold, and at that moment, there was a killing intent rushing towards his face.

Mi Le stood aside, clearly feeling the murderous intent facing Qi Moxuan, fearing that he would do something excessive, she suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Hou Junli's hand: "I'll talk about these things later, okay?" What should have happened and what should not have happened has already happened, what we should do now is not accountability, but how to solve the problem, right?"

Hou Junli looked at her slowly, he could clearly understand that all this was just an expedient measure for her to change the subject.He stretched out his hand to cover Mi Le's ears, blocking her sight and said in a low voice, "Trust me, Qi Moxuan can't stay."

Mi Le slowly rolled her eyes, only to see someone behind him walking past the two of them, the bright sword light pierced her almost blind.

She hurriedly pushed Hou Junli, but the latter held her tightly in his arms to prevent her from moving.In an instant, she didn't know where the strength came from, and she bit his hand, and in the next second, she pushed him away fiercely.

For some reason, Hou Junli's body swayed lightly because of her push. Mi Le didn't have time to think about the details, so he just blocked Yun Gui who was in front: "Stop!"

But Yun Gui was not willing to listen to her, so he swung his sword and stabbed at Qi Moxuan.

In front of him, Qi Moxuan, who had injured one leg, stood there calmly. Seeing this, his eyes turned cold and he smiled, and finally closed his eyes slowly.

Who does the regent want to kill? In this world, no one has ever been able to escape...

"Zi..."

There was a clear sound of a sharp object entering the flesh, but why was there no pain when there was a sound?
Qi Moxuan opened his eyes, and there was a delicate but still immature face close at hand. The young man's face was rosy through the morning glow, but the corners of his pale lips were bleeding.

His pupils suddenly dilated, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch the man's body.

Mi Le fell down in his arms, tightly gripped his robe, endured the pain and said: "I said... I want you to be my prime minister..."

She coughed softly, but the wound was touched, and her little face wrinkled into a ball in pain.

Qi Moxuan hurriedly hugged her: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty?"

Behind him, Yun Gui looked at the bloody sword in his hand, his hands trembled, and his face was terrified.

Behind, Hou Junli watched this scene with his own eyes, without saying anything, showing no expression, not even moving his footsteps.

He just watched Mi Le's fallen figure, and her resolute gaze as she turned her head to pray, as if something broke out of her chest, and then, she spit out a mouthful of blood.

"My lord!" Gao Yuan was startled, and immediately went to help him, Hou Junli stretched out his hand to stop his movement, with a low and calm voice, "Take the emperor away."

Gao Yuan was so anxious that he was at a loss, but he could only follow his wishes.

Several guards took the dying Mi Le from Qi Moxuan's arms and left, and Hou Junli said, "Take him away and lock him up."

Qi Moxuan let the guards drag him away, and when he passed by Hou Junli, he suddenly looked at him and smiled: "The regent lost, didn't he?"

Gao Yuan glanced at Hou Junli's face, fearing that Qi Moxuan would say something that would irritate him again, he immediately slapped his palm, and Qi Moxuan fell unconscious under his palm.

Hou Junli turned to look at Gao Yuan, his eyes were dark, Gao Yuan panicked, and quickly explained: "This person talks too much nonsense, it's better to fall asleep!"

Hou Junli didn't say anything, just turned around and walked away slowly.

In the back, Gao Yuan stepped forward to give Yun Gui who was out of his mind: "What are you still doing, let's go!"

A group of people came to the inn, but there were already people waiting there.

The other party looked at Mi Le who was being sent into the room, and then turned to Hou Junli: "Why is the emperor injured? What happened?"

"Heal the wound first."

Ji Qingming nodded immediately, and stepped forward to check Mi Le's wound.

Her injury has been treated briefly, the bleeding has been stopped, and no vitals have been hurt.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, the wound is not deep, and there will be no serious problems after recuperating for a while. Don't worry, my lord!"

Hou Junli responded, and Ji Qingming couldn't help but look at his face, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch his wrist: "Is there something uncomfortable? Let me see..."

Before he finished speaking, Hou Junli withdrew his hand, "After treating her wound, you can go out."

Ji Qingming immediately frowned: "My lord, your current body does not allow any accidents..."

"Get out." Hou Junli's voice suddenly turned cold, Ji Qingming looked at him for a while, and finally quickly treated Mi Le's wound, before leaving, he dropped the bandage: "Bandage yourself."
