"Never leave or abandon …" Mo Xiuyao murmured softly. He liked this phrase. The thought of never leaving Li made him happy from the bottom of his heart. Anyone who dared to stand in their way, he would make them pay the price!
Xiling Camp.
The atmosphere in the tent was gloomy and chilly. Jhennam Of Gojoseon's expression was the ugliest it had ever been since Xiling sent out its troops. Ever since Mo Xiuyao suddenly appeared to seize Xinyang, the entire army of Da Chu State seemed to have suddenly come alive. In the short span of ten days, the results of nearly a month's worth of battles seemed to have disappeared. Not only had the Northern Army been defeated by Mo Xiuyao's surprise attack, the Southern Army had also met with setbacks. Only the South Vanquishing King personally oversaw the central army, which was relatively stable. But how difficult would it be to take back Suncreed City from Mo Xiuyao's hands again? Why did they have to lose fifty thousand dan of rations and millions of taels of silver to Princess Ding? This made the Xiling Army, which was already lacking in rations, even worse in the coming winter.
"Prince, please calm down!" The generals said with some trepidation.
Jhennam Of Gojoseon snorted coldly and said, "Calm down, calm down! Do you not know how to say anything other than calm down? "
Knowing that the Prince was in a fit of anger, the generals did not dare to speak. They could only look at Lei Tengfeng, who was sitting to the side, pleading for help. Lei Tengfeng smiled faintly. He stood up and said to Jhennam Of Gojoseon, "Father, we all know that Mo Xiuyao is not easy to deal with. Father, please don't make things difficult for them. They have already done their best." Jhennam Of Gojoseon snorted softly. He swept a cold glance over everyone and said, "Go back. If you are flustered by the Mohist army again tomorrow, you may as well take off your armor and become pawns!" Everyone agreed and looked gratefully at Lei Tengfeng before leaving the tent dejectedly.
Only Jhennam Of Gojoseon and his son were left in the tent. There were no outsiders. Lei Tengfeng smiled and said, "Father, we cannot rush to deal with Mo Xiuyao. Even though we have suffered some losses these few days, we are not at a disadvantage in the current situation." Jhennam Of Gojoseon sighed softly and said, "I do not know this. But … Tengfeng, do not underestimate Mo Xiuyao. In I's opinion, Mo Xiuyao is even more dangerous than Mo Liufang! " Lei Tengfeng raised his eyebrows in surprise. He did not think that his father would have such a high opinion of Mo Xiuyao, whom he had only met a few times. Mo Liufang was Mo Xiuyao's father. His father's greatest enemy in this life could also be said to be his only enemy. As expected … the student has surpassed the master?
"If Mo Xiuyao had been living peacefully these few years, I might not have valued him so much. But you also know what kind of life he has been living these few years, and what kind of injuries he suffered back then. But look at the performance of the Mohist army these few days. Mo Xiuyao is not unfamiliar at all. He is even more experienced than the legends say. This means that even if Mo Xiuyao was sick and did not leave the Ding King's residence, he still has the ability to completely control the Mohist army. Furthermore, the Mohist army is still wholeheartedly convinced by him. This … Tengfeng, are you able to do it? "Jhennam Of Gojoseon lightly asked. Lei Tengfeng slightly frowned and thought for a moment. Then he raised his head and his expression was somewhat serious. His smile carried some shame and unwillingness, but he still shook his head and said, "Your son is useless. I cannot do it." No one knew better than him how badly Mo Xiuyao had been injured back then. He knew that under that kind of situation, he would definitely not be able to control the Mohist army as perfectly as Mo Xiuyao. It was even possible that he would have been defeated by that kind of pain and torture, or become crazy from being swallowed by hatred.
Jhennam Of Gojoseon nodded and said with some relief, "It is a good thing to be able to clearly see your own shortcomings. Mo Liufang gave birth to a good son, and also a good wife … He really has a good life. "
Lei Tengfeng thought about the day of the exchange of hostages, the woman in white who was talking and laughing calmly. He could not help but admit that Mo Xiuyao was indeed very lucky. Marrying such a woman as his wife, how many heroes in the world would envy Mo Xiuyao to death.
"What plans does Father have?" Lei Tengfeng asked.
Jhennam Of Gojoseon raised his eyebrows and said, "What plans do you think Father has?" Lei Tengfeng smiled and said, "Although Father looked very angry on the surface, he was not truly angry. This means that Father already has a plan in his heart. " If Father was truly angry, not to mention him pleading for leniency, even if the Heavenly Emperor came, it would be useless. Jhennam Of Gojoseon casually played with the jade thumb ring on his hand and said with a cold smile, "That year, Mo Xiuyao was lucky and the Ding Royal Estate was not destined to be destroyed. This time … I want to see if he is still so lucky! "
Lei Tengfeng's heart moved and his expression changed slightly, "Father, you plan to …"
Jhennam Of Gojoseon leisurely smiled and said, "The Ding Royal Estate is not only an eyesore to I."
"Prince is right. The Ding Royal Estate is indeed an eyesore to many people. In this world, there are many people who want it to disappear." A gentle voice came from outside the tent. Lei Tengfeng frowned when he heard this and a trace of disgust flashed across his face. Jhennam Of Gojoseon saw this and shook his head in amusement.
The curtain of the large tent was lifted from the outside and a slender and graceful figure walked in. Passing through the screen of the tiger roaring forest, the woman who appeared in the large tent was wearing a pink palace dress. Her eyebrows were dark and her lips were red without makeup. Her appearance was so exquisite that there was not a single flaw to be found. Her sparkling eyes moved and brought along a little starlight that made people intoxicated. Even though Lei Tengfeng seemed to hate her, when she looked over, he could not help but be dazed for a moment. Seeing Lei Tengfeng being dazed, the woman's lips curled into a smile. She slowly walked forward and bowed, "Greetings to Prince, Heir."
Jhennam Of Gojoseon looked at her indifferently and asked, "Why are you here? Doesn't the Emperor need someone? "
The woman rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Prince, you must be joking. The Emperor is now seriously ill in bed. The Empress is enough. Why would he need me to serve him? Don't tell me … Prince doesn't want to see me? "
Jhennam Of Gojoseon said with a smile, "How can that be? You've come at the right time. I need your help. "
The woman's smile became even more joyful. With her smile, the originally solemn tent suddenly seemed to become a little more colorful. "Prince, Long 'er will do her best to fulfill the Prince's orders." This woman was Bai Long, Imperial Concubine Qingrong of West-Hill. She was also the first beauty of Da Chu State, Su Zuidie.
Lei Tengfeng's absent-mindedness only lasted for a moment. As soon as Jhennam Of Gojoseon spoke, he had already regained his senses. He just listened to the conversation between the two in silence. His eyes were still full of disgust and disdain when he glanced at Su Zuidie, as if he was looking at something dirty. However, there seemed to be something deeper struggling in the depths of his eyes. Jhennam Of Gojoseon had been paying attention to his son's expression since the beginning of the conversation. Seeing him like this, he sighed slightly in his heart. Tengfeng was indeed the most outstanding child among all his children, even among the Emperor Of Xiling's clan. Unfortunately, he was still a little lacking compared to Mo Xiuyao.
"What orders does Prince have?" Su Zuidie said with a smile.
