Not only did Mu Qilin not get any answer from Mu Jiusheng, he was also blatantly ridiculed by Mu Jiusheng. He was so angry that he returned to the palace and smashed several plates.

……

On this day, Mu Jiusheng was taking a nap in the yard. Ever since she married Ji Huaiyu and moved away from the palace, without those annoying mosquitoes, Mu Jiusheng's life has become much better.

At this time, Shuang Jian came in hurriedly and bowed slightly when he saw Mu Jiusheng. "Your Highness, the latest news is that the border city was forced to retreat and Anyi was occupied by Nanyang. According to the urgent intelligence sent by the border guards 800 miles away, the Emperor of Nanyang seems to be interested in forming a marriage alliance with us."

"Marriage?" Mu Jiusheng looked at Shuang Jian.

The court is now in turmoil, and the family of Lu Huai'en, who was invincible in the past, has been sentenced to extermination of all nine clans. The current Chong'an Kingdom can be said to be crumbling, with almost no one available.

It is only a matter of time before it is wiped out by those border countries.

But why is the only condition for mobilizing military forces in Southeast Asia is marriage?

“I heard that the King of Nanyang wants to exchange Anyi for a marriage alliance.

The court is currently discussing whether to change it.”

Shuangjian said.

Anyi is indeed an important point. Without this point, the border’s defense capability will be reduced to the extreme.

Mu Yuchuan would not disagree, but Mu Jiusheng was wondering why Nanyang would waste such a good spot as Anyi in exchange for a marriage.

"Why don't you check what happened in Nanyang recently?"

"Your Highness is suspicious?"

“Yes, if I were the King of Nanyang, and I could conquer Anyi, I would just pursue the victory and take over the Chong’an border.

But he didn't. Instead, he withdrew his troops so quickly.

The only condition is a marriage."

Normally, the conditions for a marriage alliance should be proposed by the defeated country, but now it was proposed by a victorious country. This was obviously unusual.

Shuang Jian nodded solemnly, "Yes!"

"What are you talking about?" Ji Huaiyu passed by and saw Mu Jiusheng looking thoughtful, so he couldn't help but walk in.

"I'm thinking about things in Nanyang." Mu Jiusheng replied, holding his cheek.

"The King of Nanyang is seriously ill, and the only child who could inherit the throne suddenly disappeared. The remaining illegitimate sons are fighting fiercely. The King of Nanyang is anxious, fearing that the news from the court will be known to us and Nanyang will be invaded. So he strikes first.

However, Nanyang’s own military force is not as strong as ours, and they were able to defeat us because the military capabilities of the people stationed on the border were not high.

The King of Nanyang knows this very well, so he proposed the conditions for marriage to us. What he wants is not our Anyi. What he wants is peace in Nanyang. "

Ji Huaiyu calmly analyzed the entire situation to Mu Jiusheng.

Mu Jiusheng suddenly realized, and then looked at him thoughtfully, "You are quite well-informed."

He was the first to know the news that her God-killing Temple had not yet found out.

"Chong'an is also my country. As a commoner, I naturally don't want to see the country in turmoil."

Ji Huaiyu's words were very official. Did Mu Jiusheng believe it? Mu Jiusheng definitely didn't believe it.

"You never speak a word of truth."

Mu Jiusheng complained for a while, then looked at him and asked, "What do you think about this marriage? Should we get married or not?"

"With the ability of the ministers in the court now, if we don't form an alliance, the King of Nanyang will definitely attack a second time. By then, there will be no one available in the court. Even if we use 100,000 troops to deal with 10,000 troops from Nanyang, we will have almost no chance of winning.

The King of Nanyang has a general named Aletai, who is brave and good at fighting, and has strong military talents. If we want to deal with Aletai, Chong'an State currently only has..."

Ji Huaiyu paused, then continued, "Only Lu Huai'en, who has been killed, can be compared to him."

After saying that, Ji Huaiyu sat down on the chair next to Mu Jiusheng and returned to his usual casual self.

A dark light flashed across Mu Jiusheng's eyes, "So what do you think?"

“What do I need to think about?”

"Based on my understanding of my father, he will most likely not choose a marriage alliance."

The result of not forming an alliance through marriage would be that they would have to fight at least one more war with Nanyang, and Ji Yan, a general, would have to be sent to fight in this war.

"If your father went, are you sure he could conquer Nanyang?

Apart from Nanyang, other countries should also be waiting for this battle from us."

If we win, that's easy to deal with. But if we lose, it may not be as simple as a marriage.

Ji Huaiyu smiled indifferently, "Princess, you shouldn't ask me this, you should ask my father. I'm just a second-generation rich kid, how can I predict what will happen on the battlefield?"

"Ji Huaiyu, I don't believe it." Mu Jiusheng didn't intend to hide it from him anymore, "From the first time I saw you, I never believed that you were a second-generation rich kid who knew nothing and could do nothing.

I am putting this here. If my father insists on fighting Nanyang this time, then I will definitely take you to the battlefield with you.

Don't doubt my persuasiveness in front of my father."

Mu Jiusheng smiled and patted Ji Huaiyu's stiff body, then stretched lazily, "Okay, I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep first."

"No? Prince, what does she mean?" Ye Zixing looked at Ji Huaiyu in confusion.

So it turns out that Mu Jiusheng was performing with them before?

"We are now...what should we do!!!"

"It's okay, go back to sleep." Ji Huaiyu glanced at Ye Zixing and turned away.

Ye Zixing: “???” No, he doesn’t understand!

We haven't finished talking about this, why are they all going to sleep? ! ! !

……

at the same time

Mu Qingluo's face turned pale after learning about the marriage.

She was well aware of Mu Yuchuan's love for Mu Yingluo and would never allow her to go to a barbaric place like Southeast Asia for marriage.

Therefore, if a marriage really wanted to take place, she was the only suitable person in the entire palace.

But she didn't want to, she was unwilling to do so!

She couldn't choose to be born, and she doesn't blame anyone, but why can't she even choose her own future life!

"Princess, where are you going?"

Cherry followed behind Mu Qingluo, her eyes full of worry.

"I'm going out for a walk, don't follow me."

"Princess! The Queen has ordered me to follow you and not let anything happen to you."

"She's afraid that nothing will happen to me? She's afraid that if something happens to me, she'll be punished by my father!"

Her mother knows too well what value Mu Qingluo has in her!!!

From childhood to adulthood, Mu Qingluo's only role in front of her mother was to please her father and then bring her father to her mother.

She was fed up with this kind of life.

"Princess! I am worried about you too!"

Yingtao ran to Mu Qingluo and knelt down, "Princess, wherever you want to go, I won't stop you. I just ask that you take me with you."

Cherry became Mu Qingluo's maid three years ago. Although she was a personal maid, she did not gain Mu Qingluo's trust.

It should be said that Mu Qingluo does not trust anyone in this palace.
