Chen Xing narrowed his eyes and stared at Li Anrong for a long time. Until the other person felt scared and actively avoided his gaze, he clasped his hands behind his back and said lightly, "You don't need to know what my purpose is, you only need to know one thing. …”
"That's..." Chen Xing bared his teeth, "If you make me unhappy, the consequences will be very serious."
"What kind of serious method?" Li Anrong couldn't help asking, with a timid look on her face.
Chen Xing turned to look at A Qiaomu next to him and made a gesture of invitation, "Presiding judge, please come and explain to her."
When Chen Xing called him, Aqiaomu trembled slightly, then stood up straight, bowed and saluted, "As you wish, Prime Minister!"
Then she walked up to Li Anrong, looked directly into his eyes, and said calmly, "Dear Princess, if you don't mind, I can take you to visit our dark prison when we return to Ice Blue City."
"We have 20 interrogation rooms of different specifications, more than 30 fixed restraints such as crosses, electrocution chairs, delivery beds, and 1,109 torture instruments..."
"We have so many projects, I can guarantee you that each one will be something you will never forget..."
"That's enough!" Li Anrong interrupted Ar Qiaomu, faced Chen Xing, bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I will do my best to cooperate with your work."
"Very good." Chen Xing grinned, looking in the other person's eyes like a devil showing its fangs.
A few days later…
Within the Principality of Tianqin, the Five-Nation Alliance military meeting was held.
"Second son of the Shu Mu family, you must give us an explanation!"
As soon as the meeting began, the supreme commander of the Norton Army attacked Shu Mu Bingchen, accusing him of being the second prince of Tianqin, but instead of leading his army into Tianqin Castle and recovering the country, he stationed troops outside the city and was timid, letting the first troops enter the city. Norton's Corps suffered losses.
But there is no mention of security incidents such as our own soldiers eating King's meals everywhere, drinking and causing trouble, making noise in the streets, seriously disrupting people's lives.
"I..." Shu Mu Bingchen was about to explain the reason. The reason he didn't go into the city was because he was worried that Bai Ye Fenghua would have a back-up plan, but he didn't expect that Hong Sang, who had been silent all this time, also started to attack.
"Shu Mu Bingchen, you must explain clearly today why you don't go into the city!" The supreme commander of the Red Mulberry Army slapped the table hard, looking very excited. "Can I understand that the reason why you don't go into the city is I’m showing my goodwill to Ice Blue City!”
"They made your sister the king, do you also admit this result?" The supreme commander of the Red Mulberry Army widened his eyes and gasped, "Is it because Tianqin still belongs to your Shumu family, so you backed down? , compromised!”
The supreme commander of the Red Mulberry Army seemed to be angry and pointed at Shu Mu Bingchen's nose, "You don't understand today?"
If we explain clearly, there is no need to continue fighting this war! "
Facing the heart-wrenching accusations, Shu Mu Bingchen fell silent.
The Norton Legion was disgraced in Lyra Castle and wanted to shirk responsibility. He could understand it, because shirk ing responsibility was an international practice and no country would take the initiative to admit its mistakes.
But the attitude of the Hongsang Principality was very sudden. Before that, Hong Sang had no conflict of interest with him, but he couldn't figure out why the other party suddenly attacked.
Little did they know that the attitude of the Hongsang Principality came from the kidnapping of the princess.
Just over ten hours ago, the leader of the Red Mulberry Principality, Marquis Eric the "Copper Teapot", had a private meeting with Bai Ye Fenghua and agreed to withdraw his troops in exchange for the safety of his beloved concubine.
Therefore, under the instruction of "Copper Teapot", the supreme commander of the Red Mulberry Army attacked Shu Mu Bingchen at a military meeting and used an excuse to withdraw his troops.
But Shu Mu Bingchen didn't know the truth of the matter, he just felt something was abnormal, so he kept silent to avoid making too many mistakes and letting the other party grasp the situation.
"Can't you tell me?"
"Are you feeling guilty? You dare not answer!"
The supreme commander of the Red Mulberry Army was aggressive and did not want to give Shu Mu Bingchen a chance to defend himself.
"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable. Brother Bingchen was killed by the treacherous minister Chen Xing. There is no way he has any different intentions!" Seeing that Norton and Hongsang were deliberately targeting Shu Mu Bingchen, Sikong Shengjie quickly came out to smooth things over, "Bingchen If my brother doesn’t enter the city, he must have his own plans.”
"Do you think so, Brother Bingchen?" Sikong Shengjie secretly pulled Shu Mu Bingchen's clothes corner, signaling for an explanation.
But Shu Mu Bingchen was like a piece of wood sitting in a wheelchair, his eyes looking forward without focus, without saying a word.
"Why don't you say anything? Did we say something that hurts you?"
"Are you not even willing to explain?"
"Look at his cold demeanor. It's so irritating. He doesn't take our allies into consideration at all!"
"I think this battle is unwinnable, why don't we all withdraw!"
The top commanders of the two legions, Norton and Hongsang, sang in unison and kept attacking Shu Mu Bingchen. Since the latter remained silent, the supreme commanders of the Dawn Moon Legion and the Nice Legion also looked puzzled.
"Brother Bingchen, please speak up!" Sikong Shengjie became a little anxious when he saw that the atmosphere was getting worse.
But Shu Mu Bingchen acted as if he hadn't heard anything, saying nothing and motionless.
He did not lead his army into the city for two reasons. First, he was worried that Bai Ye Fenghua would have a backup plan and fall into the opponent's trap when he entered the city. Second, he did not want to cause misunderstandings about fighting for the throne. The younger sister has ascended the throne and is the head of Tianqin.
If he enters the city at this time, the royalists will definitely encourage the people to support him as the true king, but the new party promoted by Shu Mu Xiangling will definitely not be willing. At this time, Tianqin will fall into a whirlpool of power struggle.
The Shu Mu family has just suffered a big change and can no longer withstand much hardship. We must work together to overcome the difficulties. Once he entered the city, it would easily lead to a situation where he was riding a tiger but was unable to get off, so even when he arrived at the door of his house, he did not go in.
He wanted to defend himself, but looking at the postures of Norton and Hong Sang, they were determined to withdraw their troops. Although he didn't know the reason for Hongsang's retreat, it must have been the instruction of the king. Otherwise, the legion commander would not dare to make a decision on such a big matter.
Shu Mu Bingchen has been cold-tempered since he was a child and doesn't like to communicate with others. It has become a fact, so why waste any more words.
The meeting ended and the Red Mulberry Army began to retreat. Judging from the fact that they packed their bags in advance, Hongsang had already made a decision. No matter what the outcome of the meeting was, they would retreat.
That night, news of the retreat of the two armies, Hongsang and Norton, reached the "Dadongting", the royal city of the Xiaoyue Principality.
After dinner, Duchess Delis Mante of Dawn Moon summoned several close courtiers to the side hall to listen to their opinions.
"Grand Duke, the main forces of Norton and Hongsang have retreated. We no longer have an absolute advantage in military strength."
A beautiful young man stood out from the crowd and advised Delis Mante, "There is a misunderstanding between the allies now, which is very detrimental to the war. I suggest withdrawing the troops and waiting for all parties to repair the relationship before regrouping and fighting again."
When he said these words, the words of Ice Blue City's secret agent kept echoing in the beautiful boy's ears.
"As long as Sikong Shengjie is still here, you will always be under his control and you will never be favored by the Grand Duke."
"Now that the opportunity has come, you only need to advise the Grand Duchess, saying that the current situation is unfavorable and suggesting that she withdraw her troops."
"After the event is completed, there will be a mansion on Ruby Street in Ice Blue City, and the Queen will personally confer the title of Marquis!"
"This opportunity must not be missed, it will never come again. Young man, you must seize this opportunity to make a fortune!"
After the beautiful boy put forward his opinion, he was immediately opposed by several old ministers.
"A military and national matter is nothing but a child's play. You can't just retreat!" "Although Norton and Hongsang's main forces have left, our military advantage is still obvious!" "Grand Duchess, now is the best time to take back the lost land! "
"By taking Tian Qin, we can ask the Shu Mu family to give out part of their land as compensation!"
"Grand Duke, that treacherous minister is very cunning and good at defeating many with less. He has been like this in many previous battles." The beautiful young man stepped forward and said, "I am worried about the safety of Brother Shengjie!"
"Hmm..." The Duchess pondered.
