In danger, he traveled through time to save her, and the black-bellied prince doted on her

Xue Xiang noticed Mu Jinan's gaze, and he smiled awkwardly: "Your Highness, I am a warrior, and I don't have any good ideas for now."

"General Xue, please have two more glasses of wine." Mu Jinan knew that Xue Xiang was in trouble. He had never turned back in the past, but now Xue Haiping had been defeated and Xue Zecheng was dead.

Emperor Hui sent Wang Zhengzhong to Hu Yu and forbade the relatives of important officials to leave, which meant that he had already set his sights on the Xue family.

Xue Xiang played an indispensable role in the battle between Qu and Mu Jinan. Mu Jinan invited Xue Xiang to come just to let him enjoy his meal in peace.

Mu Jinan looked at the remaining people. Zhao Ji's current performance was to attack wherever he was pointed. He was very brave but lacked wisdom.

Mu Jinan said, "How should I deal with King Xiang, General Gu?"

Gu Wenxuan put down the wine glass in his hand, and his mind was still on the way Mu Jinan wanted to kill Nangong Yu.

She could block the sword for Nangong Yu in front of Xie Chibei, and once wanted to marry Nangong Yu, but now she suddenly turned against Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu was also unwilling to tell him the truth and tried to hide it.

Gu Wenxuan, who was always gentle and handsome, had a serious expression on his face: "Your Highness, Prince Xiang is our uncle. My mother was seriously ill two years ago, and Prince Xiang came to visit us several times."

"I received a letter from the palace a few days ago saying that my mother's condition has worsened recently. Your Majesty is keeping an eye on me. I'm afraid..."

Seeing that he was distracted, Mu Jinan tried to refuse again. Gu Wenxuan only cared about his cousin Princess Rongde because she had saved him. The two of them did not have much friendship.

He said that he didn't want to follow Xie Chibei, but wanted to follow Mu Jinan, but deep down he cared more about brotherhood. Now that Xie Chibei was not around, he had doubts in his heart, but Mu Jinan didn't force him.

"It's okay," she looked at Zhang Zhenguang who was sitting beside her, "General Zhang, how do you think I should deal with King Xiang?"

Zhang Zhenguang decided to follow Mu Jinan as early as when she saved his life. He was a loyal man and did not think too much, and he ignored Gu Wenxuan's abnormality.

In Zhang Zhenguang's heart, compared to Xie Chibei, he respects Mu Jinan more because he has worked hard all the way to the throne.

Not every woman or every man can achieve what they have today. She was able to defeat the larger force with a smaller one twice. When she attacks Sheng'an in the future, Zhang Zhenguang will have no regrets whether she lives or dies.

He said solemnly: "King Xiang did not come here with troops. If we mobilize troops, we will lose our reputation. Maybe we should treat the wise with respect and win people over with virtue."

Yuan Qinghe nodded slightly: "Your Highness, although Prince Xiang does not care about worldly affairs in the royal family, he is also known for his virtue. After the three-year war, Yuzhou was hit by a flood. He went to Yuzhou with Master Meng to provide disaster relief. He worked tirelessly, personally distributed porridge and medicine, lived with the victims, and ate bran and vegetables."

"The Emperor wanted to appoint him as the Crown Prince, but Prince Xiang refused."

When Mu Jinan was in Sheng'an, the thing that impressed her most about Prince Xiang was that he asked Emperor Ming to depose Consort Cheng Shufei. She bowed her head:

"If he is a virtuous man, why did the King of Xiang never say a word in the court to defend the people when the disaster victims in Yuzhou were blocked outside the city last year, the cavalry sent bayberries, innocent people died, the soldiers of Xuanzhou fought on an empty stomach in Yaozhou, Lin Xiuyuan was corrupt, and Cheng Yu amassed wealth?"

The wind blew in the yard, and the branches rustled. Compared with the peach and pear blossoms, the locust trees sprouted, grew leaves and bloomed a little later.

The strong sunlight shines through the still bare branches of the locust tree and is projected onto the yellowed window screen, like a sword shadow flashing in the dark night, without any sound, but sweeping like thunder, the danger cannot be ignored.

Lu Shengji was already in a situation where everyone wanted him to be killed, so he didn't care about the literary integrity when he spoke: "That's hypocrisy."

These words sounded inexplicably funny and humorous when spoken by him. At the gate of Youzhou city, Lu Shengji would rather die than surrender. He only surrendered after learning that his descendants were still alive.

Everyone said that Lu Shengji was a talented and upright person from an aristocratic family, with students all over the world, but he occupied so much fertile land, making him a complete hypocrite.

It is normal for people to be afraid of death! He has little backbone and his bones are not that hard.

Lu Shengji felt that Mu Jinan asked him to come today just to deal with King Xiang. Others had concerns, but he was different. He was a traitor in the eyes of the court.

If King Xiang came to power, he might kill him, or he might give in to a master if his knees gave way.

Mu Jinan knew that Gu Wenxuan and Xue Xiang were in trouble, so he asked Lu Shengji to come and wait for him to speak. If he dared to surrender to the enemy, the imprisoned Lu would have no chance of survival.

This move concerns the fertile land and wallets of the people in the whole city, and also concerns the future national policy of Dasheng. She will not be merciful in the slightest.

Mu Jinan thought to himself: "To deal with a rogue, you need a rogue; to deal with a hypocrite, you need a hypocrite."

"People who can be used to the best advantage will be used for the time being."

Mu Jinan picked up the wine cup and without saying "toast to Lu Shengji", he just gestured for a drink and drank it all in one gulp.

Lu Shengji was a little flattered and quickly drank the bowl of wine.

Mu Jinan asked him: "What's the good plan?"

Lu Shengji glanced at Yuan Qinghe. He deliberately said that Prince Xiang was virtuous, just waiting for him to respond. He couldn't let go of this old man who was competing with him for the title of academician.

Lu Shengji smiled and said, "Since Prime Minister Yuan knows King Xiang so well, then come with me to the city to welcome King Xiang."

Yuan Qinghe snorted in annoyance. He knew that Mu Jinan was short of manpower now, but this villain should have been killed long ago.

Mu Jinan understood Yuan Qinghe's thoughts. If being stubborn could preserve the great cause, Yuan Qinghe would not be easily framed.

Mu Jinan thought: "The Emperor Ming exiled him to Lingnan, but in fact he ordered him to go to Taizhou. For eight years, he had no chance to clear his name."

"To act in a proper and proper manner in front of a treacherous thief is like inviting him into a trap, and it is you who will get burned."

Mu Jinan looked at Yuan Qinghe's helpless look. In his heart, he admired Xie Chibei, but when Xie Chibei was not around, everyone had to be united and obey her leadership.

This is what Xie Chibei taught her personally when he was Chu Moxiao: "...the assassins assigned to you must obey your orders. Following the old ways and being merciful will only lead to loss of prestige..."

Mu Jinan thought to himself: "If you hear it, you should discuss it. If you see it, you should make a plan. Warfare is all about deception. We should treat our enemies like this, and our subordinates even more like this. Otherwise, this position will have to be replaced."

"The throne and military power are here, who wouldn't want to take it? Don't think too highly of yourself, and don't underestimate the selfishness of human nature."

Mu Jinan's face showed distress and reluctance, as well as a sense of grievance as if he had been coerced. He changed the subject and said, "Prince Yuan is ill, and Prince Jin is not here. I will go and welcome Prince Xiang."

Yuan Qinghe was sipping the wine and looked a little drunk before he even drank. Wasn't Mu Jinan waiting for him to leave the city?

This clearly meant that he only obeyed Xie Chibei, and Mu Jinan's ambiguous behavior disrupted his judgment.

Except for Gu Wenxuan, Xue Xiang, and Zhang Zhenguang, no one else has much contact with Mu Jinan.

They only knew that she could make Emperor Ming abdicate, obtain the title of prince that they would never get in their lifetime, make many capable people surrender, command an army of hundreds of thousands, act ruthlessly, and kill countless enemies.

In addition to being a genius, Mu Jinan also relied on his unpredictable mind to win various difficult chess games and escape from dangerous situations with a shield for the next game.
