The other side is you

【7】

"You—" Mo Xiwu was just about to strike out in anger, but someone slapped his chest hard, and a big mouthful of blood was forced out.

"Hahaha..." It was Jiexin's raging laughter. He galloped his horse and galloped a few meters, grabbed the rein with one hand, leaned over to retrieve the weapon that had just been dropped on the ground, looked back and laughed loudly, "Mo Xiwu, soldiers never tire of deceit, you , so kind! But, I just like you! Hahaha..."

"Damn it..." Mo Xiwu was seriously injured, he could feel pain in his chest after every word he said, so he could only lie on the horse's back and not make any violent movements.

In the distance, there is Jie Xin's high-pitched voice: "Brothers, withdraw! They Yiyue Kingdom surrounded us and fought Lao Tzu to survive!"

In that battle, Yiyue Kingdom regained its territory, and the general of Ying Kingdom, Jie Zhuan, hurriedly fled with thousands of remnants.

Mo Xiwu could never forget the kiss that Jieqian burned on his cheek. He vaguely remembered that Jieqian whispered something in his ear at that time, with a complaining and sighing voice, but what did he say? But I can't remember it at all.

Above the court hall, Lord Yiyue was very satisfied with Mo Xiwu's performance. The king sitting high in the hall smiled and saw the young, promising and heroic Xipinghou sitting down. His eyes were full of admiration. He twirled Beard, said: "Aiqing has worked hard, and Gu is very satisfied with this battle."

"This is the duty of the last general, and he should be willing to die."

"Yeah." The emperor nodded in satisfaction, and tapped the armrest of the dragon chair with his fingers rhythmically. After a long time, he leaned forward slightly and smiled, "It seems that Aiqing is not young, but I heard that she is not married yet." ?”

"Yes." Mo Xiwu couldn't help but tremble when he heard the tone of the Holy Master, so he had to listen tremblingly.

"Since you've reached the age of marriage, how about suggesting marriage for you alone?"

As soon as the emperor said this, all the ministers showed expressions of envy or jealousy, they lowered their voices and began to discuss. Some people praised Xipinghou as a hero, but some said that Xipinghou was favored by the emperor at such a young age. If you restrain yourself, you will definitely attract criticism from others in the future.However, these gossips were only in the whispers of the officials, and Mo Xiwu, who was standing in the center of the court hall, could not hear them clearly.

The emperor glanced lightly at the courtiers in the court, and then set his eyes on Mo Xiwu, and without waiting for Mo Xiwu to answer, he continued: "I know that Aiqing had a very good relationship with the fourth princess when I was young. Betrothed to Aiqing."

There was an uproar in all directions, and everyone knew that the monarch of Yiyue had no children, and there were only nine princesses. Because Yiyue had always had a tradition of abdicating without children, the next emperor must be the current emperor who abdicates, and the successor is very likely to be born Among the brothers of the current Holy Majesty and the nine future sons-in-law, although the current Holy Majesty originally had two brothers and one younger brother, unfortunately, the two elder brothers died in the battle against the Sad Country ten years ago, and it is said that the first brother behaved unruly and went astray since he was a child. He was exiled from the palace and never heard from again.Therefore, all princes, princes and generals hope that their children and grandchildren can marry the princess, so that they can control the world.

However, the fourth princess is the most beloved daughter of the Holy Majesty, and there is no other woman in the world who dares to match her in terms of character, learning, talent and appearance.The Holy Admiral promised the Fourth Princess to Marquis Xiping, making it clear that he intended to make him the heir to the throne.

"What's your family's opinion?" The emperor said calmly, as if asking for advice, but no one could refuse.

There was a deathly silence, and everyone's eyes were focused on Mo Xiwu.

A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on Mo Xiwu's forehead. He tried his best to calm himself down, cupped his hands and said, "Thanks to the love of the Holy One, it's just that the general thinks that the border of our Yiyue country is unstable now, and the mission of the general has not been fulfilled. The interests of the country and the well-being of the people are the most important."

"I also think that General Dingguo is still young, and the marriage can be discussed later. Now that the people on the frontier are struggling to live, I will still respect the general to drive out the barbarians and attack the southern barbarians for our people in Yiyue, in exchange for Yiyue's eternal peace. "Prime Minister Zuo Jingyan stepped out of the line of civil servants, walked to the center of the court hall, and immediately followed Mo Xiwu's words.

"Prime Minister Zuo's words are reasonable, and I also think..."

……

All the ministers were overjoyed when they heard that Mo Xiwu declined the emperor, and the Prime Minister Zuo Jingyan took the lead in inviting them, so they all became bolder and helped Mo Xiwu speak up one by one. In fact, everyone knew it well. Obviously, this is clearly under the banner of putting state affairs first, but in fact it is secretly blocking Mo Xiwu's path to prosperity and removing a huge obstacle for himself.
