Xuan Li suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, stood up, pulled out the dagger from his waist, and stabbed Li Jie in the heart:

"If you dare to insult our master, I will kill you"

Li Jie's follower Altan hit Xuan Li in the chest with a palm. Li Jie hugged the dancer and laughed, his eyes full of provocation, and threw the wine jug in his hand at Sun Xiang:

"I have long said that Shan Yue's sons and heirs are all cowards."

Li Jie turned his back and prepared to leave. Xuan Li stepped forward to fight for the dancer but was stopped by Altan. Sun Xiang stepped forward to help Xuan Li and the three of them started fighting.

Sun Jingqi was completely enraged, his gray beard stood up, and he used all his strength in the hand holding the dagger. The anger and humiliation in his eyes spread like a sea of ​​fire, burning the man's whole body. The dagger pierced Li Jie's waist behind his back.

Yun Chi moved forward and held down Sun Jingqi's arm.

Li Jie's body trembled violently, his eyes widened, and he slowly lowered his eyes. He looked at the blood dripping down his feet, turned his head to look at Sun Jingqi, and rushed to his side:

"Grandson, how dare you assassinate me?"

The sea of ​​blood under Sun Jingqi's thick eyebrows turned into a sharp sword. He pulled out the dagger and wanted to stab again.

Yun Chi kicked Sun Jingyi away and helped Li Jie up: "Bandage the wound quickly, don't bother with him"

A barely perceptible smile flashed across Mu Jinan's lips, and he shouted anxiously:

"Quickly send Witch Doctor Sarco"

Li Yuanyang's eyes darkened slightly. He pulled Mu Jinan's arm and stared into her eyes, as if to say, "Didn't we discuss this the day before yesterday?"

Mu Jinan shook off his hand, raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Li Huaijin lowered his head. Yun Chi immediately helped Li Jie out and bandaged him. Sa Ke came to treat him.

Li Heng, who was sitting below the banquet table, felt that Li Jie and Sun Jingqi were so stupid that they could turn against each other just over a dancer.

Looking at Mu Jinan again, she is now more thoughtful than before, and he is afraid that she will use Li Jie to do something even more unexpected.

When Mu Yun saw him secretly looking at Mu Jinan, she felt sour and jealous. She was waiting for that man to come.

Shi Si originally only had the plague, but for some reason, his right arm lost sensation. He seemed to see through the situation.

The dancer in red approached Prince Liang and Su Heyan just to confuse everyone and avoid suspicion.

The purple-clothed woman used a large bowl when pouring wine for Li Jie. He was drunk and crazy, and the two women just wanted to stir up the old score between Li Jie and Sun Jingqi.

Li Yuanyang sent the dancer back and forth, and every sentence was deliberately provoking conflicts. His words implied that Sun Jingqi gave in to Li Jie, as if reminding him that Shan Yue'er died tragically.

Li Jie had been arrogant for many years and did not take Chief Sun seriously, which is why he was stabbed.

Shi Si thought: "Is this princess and Li Yuanyang of the same mind? I must leave here as soon as possible."

Yelu Chang said nothing and watched them perform. As long as he was the last one to appear on stage, it didn't matter to him who died at that moment.

Li Yuanyang saw that the matter was done and had no choice but to endure it. He gave an order:

"Sun Jingyi assassinated the Qixuan clan's King Qi, his crime is unforgivable, he will be imprisoned"

Sun Xiang knelt down quickly, looking panicked: "King, please don't do that. Li Jie is not dead yet. He was the one who insulted me first. Why are you holding my grandfather in prison?"

Li Yuanyang was furious: "You dare to question my order. If you shout again, I will imprison you as well."

Sun Jingqi looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. It was that laughter that penetrated the grassland and shocked people. The resentment, longing and relief in his eyes were intertwined together:

"You all think I'm a fool, a stupid and reckless person. This kind of opportunity is hard to come by in a lifetime. I'm just avenging my mother. At my age, why should I care?"

He looked relaxed, stretched out his arms, and waited to be detained. He turned his head to look at Li Yuanyang, his eyes full of compassion, and left a sentence:

"King, can you see the road ahead clearly and understand people's hearts?"

Li Yuanyang's eyes dimmed as he watched his figure disappear into the king's tent. Everyone left, leaving only the three of them in the tent. He squatted on the table, filled with resentment:

"Princess, why did you let Li Jie go? Don't you hate him?"

Mu Jinan curled his lips and smiled: "You never borrowed troops from Li Jie, but from Li Renbang. You received news that the troops were coming here and couldn't wait to kill King Qi."

"You want to join forces with Li Renbang to seize my elite troops, but I will never let you do that."

Li Renbang is the son of Li Jie. Li Yuanyang has been friends with him privately for a long time and their dealings are cautious and close. He doesn't know how Mu Jinan found out.

Li Yuanyang stood on the table, his hand on his forehead, looking down at her petite figure. He was actually being played around by a little girl.

The troops were coming. If Li Jie came to his senses and attacked him, he would be inviting a wolf into his house and there would be no escape:

"You saved Li Jie, and you wanted him to attack me, or you wanted him to lead his troops back to Qixuan?"

"Kill three birds with one stone. Get rid of Sun Jingqi and subdue King Qi. Was it King Liang who gave you the idea?"

Mu Jinan did not answer his question. He really could not see through people's hearts.

Li Huaijin stood up, his clear eyes under the mask showing confidence. He stretched out his hand. Mu Jinan walked to him and he held her hand tightly:

"My wife is smart, why does she need a foolish man to give her advice? Don't think that women are inferior to men."

The girl smiled sweetly and helped him leave.

How could Li Jie obey him? He could only have a chance of winning if he used Li Renbang, obtained elite troops, and formed an alliance with Shi Si.

Li Yuanyang smashed everything in the tent to vent his anger:

"Mu Jinan, you have played me in the palm of your hand, putting me in a dilemma. I will make sure you cannot escape."

Outside the tent, Mu Jinan saw two figures in the distance, both of whom were smiling.

Xuan Li's eyebrows relaxed and he was very respectful: "Starting tomorrow, you will be able to succeed the position of chieftain."

Sun Xiang patted his shoulder, his eyes were like surging waves, rolling and hitting the rocks. He was ambitious and smiled unabashedly:

"It's all thanks to you that Aung got so angry."

"Aung is old, it's time for him to step down"

"You are a meritorious official, I will not treat you unfairly. From today on, you will follow me. If Li Yuanyang can sit on the throne, I can sit on it too."

Xuan Li bowed his head and saluted: "Yes, sir."

..

Inside the king's tent, a woman dressed in black, with a resolute gaze and a solemn expression, kneeled on the ground:

"Your subordinate greets the princess, His Royal Highness Prince Liang."

Mu Jinan: "Get up"

She was the dancer in red, her name was A Linchu, she was seventeen years old, pretty, skilled in martial arts, and possessed unique skills.

"Thank you, Princess. My sister cannot speak, so I will say thank you for her."

She and Aling are sisters and depend on each other. Alingchu is seriously ill and has no money for treatment. Aling sells herself as a slave to Shashen and exchanges her for money to save her sister's life.

A Ling was beaten and humiliated countless times. She had lost her voice when she was holding the jade pendant at the archery range. After Mu Jinan poisoned Sha Xin, A Ling set fire to the house and died in her prime.

A Linchu wanted to save her sister, but the roof beam broke and fell down, hitting her. Yun Chi was following Li Huaijin's order and wanted to save A Ling, but it was too late.

After Alinchu was rescued by Yun Chi, she followed him to learn martial arts. She had a strong understanding and Yun Chi often praised her, saying that she was a martial arts genius that is rare in a century.

Mu Jinan stared at A Linchu's face, blankly and motionless. Li Huaijin waved in front of her eyes. She came back to her senses, took out a few gold hairpins from the box and put them in A Linchu's hands:

"Alinchu, you dance really well. Please teach me someday."
