Chapter 330 Entering the City

"Failed again?" Zong Zhenghan's expression was gloomy. "What is the use of this hall to support you?" He raised his hand and threw the spy's secret report on the ground, just unfolding it and showing it under the eyes of the kneeling person.

Playing with the ivory carved landscape snuff bottle brought in as a tribute, Zong Zhenghan's tone became more and more cold. "The moon bear that was specially captured from the Western Jin Dynasty was shot to death outside the forest before it showed any effect? ​​A guard that appeared for no reason? Huh?"

There was a loud bang in the silent room, and the enamel Sanskrit furnace strangled to death by His Highness Eighth Prince was broken to the ground.

"Pinch off the thread. If you dare to make any omissions, I'll see you later."

When the pair of gold silk shadow pattern soap boots passed by, the forehead of the person lying on the ground was covered with cold sweat. In the cold weather, the vest was soaked in sweat and sticky, and the wind brought a biting chill, which made people feel chilled.

In the Xicheng compound in Beidi, Mu Xiyao stared at Qiang San'er and couldn't believe it. "Where do you think His Highness is?"

"Master, at midnight last night, His Highness led troops to surprise Jita, and captured the city at three o'clock this morning, leading troops into the city." Qiang San'er's face was flushed, his shiny black face, and his white teeth shook Mu Xiyao. He became more and more confused.

Zong Zhenglin captured Jita, a border city in Mobei? The man who was posing in front of her the day before yesterday has led his troops into the city now? Feeling dizzy, he looked at Qiang San'er and hurriedly asked, "How many troops from Moganling did your Highness bring?"

Could it be that the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army was regarded as nothing, and the troops were evacuated?

"The rumors spread throughout the city outside, and the army stationed in Moganling did not move. His Highness only brought 800 private army cavalry. When he arrived at Jita City, he cooperated with the inside and outside, and beheaded more than 30 generals defending the city of Mobei. Get those barbarians to fuck off, and surrender immediately!"

The inside should be combined with the outside! Finally grasping the point, Mu Xiyao's eyes froze, and she silently calculated the time... Could it be that on the hunting day, this man used himself as a bait to attract the attention of all parties, but his men sneaked into the enemy's rear? The hidden guards who were missing had all entered the city of Gita in advance?

"Master, Master Wei has sent a letter saying that His Highness will return to Xicheng in three days. Master specifically instructed that whenever there is a celebration banquet in the city, the master must not show up at will, let alone make trouble on his own." Qiang San'er lacked confidence, and added at the end He said, "This is His Highness's original words."

With a serious expression on her face, Mu Xiyao snorted coldly and raised her neck, raised her skirt and went straight back to the back room. The man still didn't forget to admonish her when he was far away in Gita, and when he came back, he would definitely make him "parsley meat roll", "sweetness is sweet", "wormwood old duck stew".

It's just that she is always happy in her heart that Lord Boss made such a surprise attack...

"Are you going to use these today?" Zongzheng Lin rushed back to Xicheng, and was warmly welcomed into the house by Mu Xiyao. When he saw the food set up in the hall, his originally amiable face suddenly fell.

"Yes, my concubine has heard people say that it's easy to get angry in the north, and occasionally go to get rid of it, so it's better to eat light." As if she hadn't noticed his uneasy face, Mu Xiyao smiled at Yan Yan, and stepped on his feet to relieve him He took off the cloak and twisted the hot towel to clean his face.

The little hand climbed up to his chin, tried back and forth, hugged the man's neck and kissed his chin, smiling happily to himself. "The stubble has appeared again. Tomorrow, a concubine will clean up with you."

Desperate ah desperation. The dishes prepared by my concubine took great pains. Seeing you staring at them for a long time, it should be eye-catching.

"Your Highness is working very hard outside, so you must use more." He said while adding vegetables to the bowl. Zong Zhenglin never liked these strong smells. His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness is picky eater, and he often follows him on weekdays. Today...you just make do with it.

The wrist holding the jade chopsticks was gently brought forward by him, and the parsley was pinched at the tip, with drooping leaves and trembling stems.

"Your Highness?" Why are you dragging your concubine like this?

After easily snatching the bowl and chopsticks from her hand, Zong Zhenglin grabbed her and sat on his lap. "You don't allow Jiaojiao to go out, are you annoyed?" With tired eyes, he hugged her fragrant and soft body, resting his chin on the top of her hair, and sighed a long time. "I'm a little tired, be more delicate and obedient." The palm of her hand caressed the loose hair on her back, there was a familiar fragrance from the tip of her nose, and the sweet and warm fragrance of her body lingered all over her body.

"Taking Jita, the other side of Shengjing must have heard the news. People from all walks of life in Xicheng have gathered these days, and Jiaojiao should avoid it, so that the hall can feel at ease." Kissing the side of her neck lightly, the tip of the man's nose brushed against her earlobe, Feng The eyes are slightly closed, and the expression is secretive.

The secret letter has been handed over to a special person for interpretation, and the target of the other party is directed at the Chinese army coach. By falsely reporting the military situation on the West Road, he bribed the lieutenant general in the army in an attempt to confuse Huo Yinglin's sight. It has now been found out that the spy who sent the letter is a confidant spy under the command of Mobei Hussar General Tuo Bahong.

Since it is against this person, the other person may be useful.

"Your Highness?"

This man didn't stop thinking when he returned to the mansion. Mu Xiyao tugged at his robe helplessly, "Since you're tired, I've had dinner earlier, and I'll massage and relax your muscles and bones for you, how about you settle down earlier?"

With a raised eyebrow, he just hugged the troublesome one and moved to the grand teacher's chair to sit leisurely, stretching his legs and feet. "It really doesn't work."

With a puff, she covered her mouth and snickered, Mu Xiyao's eyebrows and eyes were curved, she was very happy. "The concubine's sons have all followed His Highness." The rascal looked exactly the same.

Seeing the connivance in his eyes, no one knows that this man is accommodating her. If you really want him to eat, this man will not refuse.

"Hui Lan." She raised her voice to call someone into the room. Seeing Sa Ren open the curtain, Hui Lan stepped into the room first, carefully holding the purple clay pot.

The fingertips coated with Dan Kou slowly lifted the lid, and the strong aroma in the clay pot immediately spread in all directions. "Simmered deer tendons in a casserole. Do you like the dishes that His Highness likes?" Then he served his usual Penglai tofu, hydrangea scallops, canary birds, and the simmering sake, Mu Xiyao smiled Yingying, the greeter removed the meal with ulterior motives from the previous table.

If you really want to neglect this difficult person, in the end the blame will not be on her shoulders? Mu Yaonv is very good at calculating, and her petty temper is as far as she can go, and she will accept it as soon as she sees it.

Zongzheng Lin's phoenix eyes were smiling, and his eyes were full of pity.

This ghost is so smart, he would run away immediately if he was provoked.

"Still waiting?"

Hey, now you know how to greet your concubine, and you pushed her hand away just now, so disgusted...

With the great victory on the West Road, the city of Shengjing was full of jubilation. In private, apart from the Sixth Prince's family, the atmosphere in the neighboring residences was solemn and there was no joy.

In the imperial study room, Emperor Yuan Cheng stared at the newspaper in his hand for a long time, with extremely complicated expressions in his eyes. After a long time, he raised his hand and pressed the center of his eyebrows, and finally made a decision.

"Gu Changde, see you in Xuanlao Bayu's study."

That night, the eighth prince, Zong Zhenghan, had a face-to-face meeting in the imperial study room, and he rested in the palace until the third watch. As soon as this news came out, all the ministers who were extremely optimistic about His Highness the Sixth Highness in the daytime immediately became indecisive in their agitated minds.
