Dongfang Yi has arrived!

Seeing him coming, Mo Ye reacted extremely quickly. He flashed behind Qin Ruoran and knocked her out with a knife.

"Everyone, please show mercy!" Dongfang Yi ran over breathlessly.

Xia Qin stared at him, and he also looked straight at Xia Qin.

Although they had known each other for a short time, how could Dongfang Yi not recognize such a pair of heroic eyes and that familiar fragrance?

"Miss Mu, although my request is unreasonable, please let Ruoran go."

Dongfang Yi said this sincerely, but his eyes were a little evasive.

He looked at Qin Zhengran who had already died, and a layer of gloom rose in his eyes.

Mo Ye and Mu Jinyu did not speak. The Night Owl Squad had completed the mission and was slowly withdrawing.

"General Dongfang," Xia Qin said in a cold tone, somewhat displeased. "Publicly, this person colluded with Yuelan Country to frame the generals of the imperial court. Privately, this person has tried to kill me several times. You want me to let her go? Why?"

Hearing Xia Qin say this, Dongfang Yi's eyes flickered, and inexplicable pain continued to accumulate in them.

"Miss Mu, I know I owe you a favor. You saved my life and taught me martial arts. You also helped me indirectly by letting Yin Ruoshui give up Shuofang City." His voice got lower and lower. "Whether you believe it or not, saving her life will benefit you, the Mu family, and the court. You don't understand the Qin family."

"You know the Qin family very well, right?" Xia Qin replied coldly.

But as soon as she said this, she regretted it.

She remembered what Dongfang Yi had once confided to him, and she had no intention of mocking him.

But Dongfang Yi did not refute, he just looked at Xia Qin, his eyes completely lost their luster, he smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, as an important member of the Qin Party in people's eyes, of course I understand them."

"I..." Xia Qin felt that she had indeed spoken out of turn.

In the distance, the sound of horse hooves approached.

“Miss Mu, please trust me this time. This is the end of the matter. It is the best outcome for you and the Mu family. Leave the rest to me, okay?” Dongfang Yi’s voice was almost pleading.

At this time, Mu Jinyu approached: "Xiaoyan, let's go. If General Dongfang forcibly takes people away, we can't stop him. I believe in him."

Xia Qin looked at Dongfang Yi again with mixed emotions. She turned around silently and came to Mo Ye's side.

"Let's go back."

Xia Qin, Mo Ye and Mu Jinyu left calmly, avoiding Sima Yun and Dongfang Yi's hundreds of guards outside the woods.

Seeing that they had completely gone far away, Dongfang Yi shouted, and Sima Yun led his troops to rush in.

"Boss, are you okay?"

"Water." Dongfang Yi stretched out his hand.

Sima Yun quickly handed over the water bag.

"Puff!" Qin Ruoran woke up under the stimulation of cold water.

After surviving the disaster, she was saved by her prince charming. For Qin Ruoran, the story seemed pretty good.

"Brother Dongfang! Woo..." She sobbed rarely and hugged Dongfang Yi who was squatting.

Dongfang Yi had a blank expression on his face, his hands hanging down.

"Ruoran, those assassins from Yuelan Country ran away when they saw us coming. Let's take your brother and the bodies of these people back." Dongfang Yi lied for the first time in so many years. "It's all over. Go back and have a good rest."

"Yeah!" Qin Ruoran only took a look at her brother's body and turned her head away. She was tired these days.

Since Dongfang Yi is around, everything is fine.

Dongfang Yi gently helped her up and brought her back to Mobei City.

Peace returned to the northern border, as if it had always been so quiet here, except for the tens of thousands of Hun soldiers' corpses that had not been dealt with in time, which recorded everything that had happened.

"Brother Huo, what did my brother tell you?" Xia Qin asked curiously.

"We?" Huo Jinying shook his head. "The four of us are loyal. General Mu, what can you say?"

"What do you mean?" Xia Qin was puzzled.

Xiao Yuer was listening to Xia Qin, Mo Ye and Huo Jinying chatting, and came over.

"Hey, Brother Mu must have scared them," she analyzed seriously, "and told them that if they don't listen to me in the future, they will lose their heads."

As he spoke, Xiaoyu also made a one-handed horizontal slashing gesture.

Xia Qin rolled her eyes at Xiaoyu, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was normal for Xiaoyu to have such an impression, as her brother was much more ruthless than herself in her previous life and even more ruthless than Mo Ye.

Although, the people he killed were not innocent.

However, I always feel that my brother always kills people unexpectedly.

Huo Jinying whispered, "General Mu said that he has asked his subordinates to send ten taels of gold to the homes of each member of the Night Owl Squad, and that this amount will be their annual salary in the future, as long as they swear allegiance to the young lady until death."

Xiaoyu was stunned. It was obvious that Mu Jinyu's behavior was beyond her expectations: "I didn't expect that Brother Mu was such a nice person!"

Seeing how naive she was, the other three all smiled bitterly.

"What are you talking about? Your smile is so ugly." As he was speaking, the real person Mu Jinyu came.

"Listen to Xiaoyu praising her brother." Xia Qin joked mischievously.

"Stop praising me. My father has something urgent to discuss with you." Mu Jinyu's face suddenly became much more serious.

"Is there something urgent?" Seeing Mu Jinyu so serious, Mo Ye asked curiously, "What is it?"

Mu Jinyu curled her lips and looked at Xia Qin and Mo Ye: "It's time for you two to get married."

"Ah?!" Xia Qin and Mo Ye opened their mouths in shock at the same time.

I'm only nineteen! Xia Qin blushed and wailed in her heart.

"Just kidding," Mu Jinyu said with a relaxed smile, "New Year's Day is coming soon, and dad might ask you what you want to eat for the New Year's Eve dinner."

"Brother, you are so annoying!"

"That's right. I'm not as likable as Yun Chen, right? A ray of love." Mu Jinyu seemed to have never been so relaxed and happy.

Hearing this, Xia Qin suddenly thought of something and started to mock Mo Ye: "Yes, Master Mo, if I remember correctly, the date you agreed to meet with Ling Xian'er is almost here. Is there still time? Can we still have the New Year's Eve dinner together?"

"Didn't I explain this to you?" Mo Ye knew he was in the wrong and said helplessly, "You can't always be jealous about this..."

"I'm not jealous!"

"Sister," Xiaoyu said seriously, "I think you are just jealous."

"you……"

"Hahaha!" Mu Jinyu and Huo Jinying burst into laughter.

Qingyun City, after being occupied by the Huns for five years, returned to the Great Xia Kingdom. Their laughter seemed to indicate that things would get better here.

A few days later, the capital city was also bustling and joyful.

The scene in the capital was naturally because the emperor was happy.

Although Japanese pirates were still rampant in the east, the war in southern Xinjiang was not going well, and there was no good news from the west, the emperor was in a very good mood.

He had never been so happy since he inherited the throne.

It was not because Northern Xinjiang won a victory and recaptured three cities in two months, but because of Xia Qin's powder kegs.

In Guanju Palace, the exhausted emperor got off Mu Jinqi, his eyes flashing with excitement and satisfaction.

He squinted his eyes, savoring the moment and gently caressing Mu Jinqi's soft skin.

"My beloved, do you know the news about your father and brother's great victory in the northern border?"

Mu Jinqi leaned over and gently squeezed the emperor, whispering in his ear, "Your Majesty, you just told me yesterday."

"Yes, yes, yes! I forgot what I told my beloved concubine yesterday," he asked in a low voice, "The court officials all said that I was wise and brave, comparable to Yao and Shun, and that I was the descendant of the star Ziwei. Therefore, in this battle in the northern border, I had to rely on the thunder from the gods to defeat the Xiongnu army and behead 30,000 of them!"

"Your Majesty is a wise ruler throughout history." Mu Jinqi agreed obediently.

The emperor smiled, gently hugged Mu Jinqi, and then turned his head to look at her and asked, "Then my beloved concubine, tell me, who has made greater contributions, your father and brother leading the army, or my thunderbolt?"
