General Lu's eyes were about to pop out, and Shen Qiu was a little curious whether General Lu's eyeballs would fall out if he scratched them at this time.

However, General Lu’s eyes were full of red bloodshot and were cloudy, which looked ugly at first glance.

The most beautiful thing is the lady's eyes.

Shen Qiu sighed inwardly.

General Lu's neck turned red with excitement. "I can't possibly betray the Ji Kingdom, Third Prince. Even if you want to slander me, I have worked hard over the years even if I have not made any contributions!"

The Third Prince curled his lips when he heard this, "You have made many mistakes in recent years. Are these all accidents?"

The soldiers below were stunned and looked at General Lu suspiciously.

General Lu has had many accidents accidentally over the years. What if all of these were intentional?

General Lu insisted: "It was all an accident!"

The third prince prolonged the tone meaninglessly: "Ah... really?"

"I do not believe!"

General Lu looked at the Third Prince in astonishment. He felt that he had been fooled.

Ji Qichen was in a happier mood. After the soldiers had circulated the imperial edict, he said calmly, "There is irrefutable evidence that General Lu has colluded with the enemy country. He must be taken back to the capital and handed over to His Majesty for processing. Do you have any objections?"

The soldiers looked at each other left and right, and no one spoke. If the Third Prince wanted to execute General Lu here, then they could object.

But the third prince intends to hand him over to His Majesty for punishment, not lynching him.

So they won't object.

Anyway, if General Lu was wrongly accused, Your Majesty will definitely be able to find out the truth!

Ji Qichen looked around and said, "Since no one has any objection, let's do it this way."

General Qi said with a serious face: "In order to prevent the enemy from knowing some information about the military camp and launching a surprise attack, I have to change the shift schedule, number of people, and battle formation!"

The soldiers were shocked by what happened to General Lu, and no one stood up to object.

On the other side, General Wang and his confidants carefully looked at the message sent by General Lu and laughed contemptuously.

"General Lu is really a good dog of our country. He gives us whatever we want."

"Do you really think he can become a marquis? This is just a lie to him."

The confidant beside him flattered and echoed: "Yes, Lord Wang, you are still the best!"

General Xu immediately announced: "Now that we have the map and these key information, we should act without delay. Who knows if there will be any accidents? We should act as soon as possible!"

"Pick a unit of soldiers to follow me in the surprise attack!"

The military camps of both sides began to undergo tremendous changes.

Before Ji Qichen came back, Mu Tangxi suddenly asked Xu Guangzhu a question: "Cousin, there is something I haven't told you."

The amber eyes moved and softened a little.

Xu Guangzhu looked confused: "Huh? What's going on?"

Her long feathery eyelashes were slightly closed, concealing the emotions in her eyes, but there was a smile at the corners of her mouth.

"I may not be your cousin."

"Ah?" Xu Guangzhu was confused.

"What does it mean?"

Mu Tangxi blinked calmly and said, "It means that I am not my mother's biological daughter."

These light words stunned Xu Guangzhu.

He was confused: "How is that possible?"

Mu Tangxi curled the corners of his lips: "Do you remember the concubine my father brought back and the concubine's child, Mu Lianxue?"

Xu Guangzhu nodded slowly: "I remember, Ji Qichen sent me a letter, what's wrong?"

Mu Tangxi raised her eyes and looked straight at Xu Guangzhu: "That mistress swapped my baby with Mu Lianxue's when they were just born."

Xu Guangzhu's breathing stopped for a moment, then he suddenly took a deep breath, and finally retorted weakly: "This can't happen, the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion..."

"The Prime Minister's Mansion was burned down this year." Mu Tangxi maintained a smile.

“Ah…” Seo Kwang Soo shut up.

"This incident happened right under my father's nose. He knew everything. He just didn't stop it because the mistress was his beloved."

Xu Guangzhu had a strange expression: "Hiss, is the Prime Minister actually this kind of person?"

Mu Tangxi looked at Xu Guangzhu: "So, what do you think?"

Xu Guangzhu was silent for a while, "Aren't you sad?"

There was indifference in her amber eyes, and she smiled and asked, "Why should you be sad? Mu Lianxue is dead anyway."

Mu Tangxi said as he looked at Xu Guangzhu's increasingly frightened face.

I have to say, Xu Guangzhu's expression satisfied her bad taste.

Mu Tangxi even deepened his smile to intimidate Xu Guangzhu.

Anyway, since Seo Kwang-soo has already promised to provide relief to refugees and disaster victims, he must be held accountable for his previous words!

I deliberately pointed out that her smile was fake to test her. Did I really think she didn't know?

Afterwards, Ji Qichen and General Qi came back.

When Ji Qichen came in, he couldn't help but pause when he saw this scene, "Xu Guangzhu, why do you have such an expression?"

He had an expression as if he had seen a ghost and felt like the sky was falling.

Xu Guangzhu swallowed the words he wanted to say with difficulty, "Ah... nothing."

Mu Tangxi asked with concern: "How is your work going?"

Ji Qichen nodded and raised his chin somewhat proudly: "General Lu's limbs have been successfully disabled. General Qi's confidant and Doctor Shen are taking care of him together."

General Qi also replied, "I will go and arrange the soldiers into a new formation first."

Then General Qi left.

In the tent, Mu Tangxi and Ji Qichen started chatting, while Xu Guangzhu was still immersed in the information just told by his cousin, oh no, Mu Tangxi.

My mind is in a state of confusion.

Mu Tangxi kept talking to Ji Qichen to put pressure on Xu Guangzhu.

Of course, she would not continue to let Xu Guangzhu misunderstand.

So Mu Tangxi used the excuse of going to see General Lu and Shen Qiu leave, giving Xu Guangzhu the opportunity to ask Ji Qichen and get the answer.

Mu Tangxi just omitted some words and successfully misled Xu Guangzhu. I think he will feel guilty when he knows the truth.

She likes people who feel guilty about her, because such people can be used by her more easily.

As soon as Mu Tangxi left, Xu Guangzhu quickly asked Ji Qichen to sit down beside the bed and asked in a low voice: "Third Prince, I heard that Mu Lianxue is dead?"

Ji Qichen was confused, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

The fear in Xu Guangzhu's eyes became more obvious, "How did Mu Lianxue die?"

Ji Qichen glanced at Xu Guangzhu, wondering if he knew that Mu Lianxue was his cousin.

"Before she got married, Mu Lianxue had been in contact with Pan Qingkong, the son of the Minister of War. Pan Qingkong also liked Mu Lianxue very much. But then Mu Lianxue suddenly married the Second Prince as a concubine."

"Not long after, Mu Lianxue's body was found in the suburbs. According to the investigation of the Dali Temple, the final murderer was Pan Qingkong!"
