Ma Rulong looked relieved, looked at Jian Mo and Dean Cao and said, "Do you two have any objections?"

"No!" Jian Mo immediately shook his head.

Dean Cao looked hesitant, and Ma Rulong said lightly: "Tianci is a person cultivated by our Wu Zongdian since childhood. It is impossible for others to say anything, and we will kill him."

A trace of unwillingness flashed in Dean Cao's eyes, and he finally nodded helplessly.

"Okay, tomorrow I will return to the main hall with Tianci."

"I'm going too!" Jane said quietly.

Ma Rulong glanced at Jian Mo, nodded and said, "Okay, the affairs here will be presided over by Dean Cao temporarily."

the second day.

Ma Rulong, Jian Mo and Tianci rode three riders towards the city gate. Before reaching the city gate, they saw that the city gate was under martial law. Some kingdom officials were standing at the city gate, looking into the distance, as if they were waiting to welcome someone.

At this time, the soldiers under martial law also saw Ma Rulong and the three of them. If others didn't know each other, how could it be possible that Ma Rulong and Jian Mo didn't know each other?

"Greetings to Palace Master Ma, Palace Master Jian!"

The officials in front heard the voice behind them, turned around and saw Ma Rulong and Jian Mo, and hurried over to greet them. Ma Rulong smiled and said:

"Master Wang, who are you welcoming?"

"It's the envoy of the Lie Sun Kingdom!"

"Oh!" Ma Rulong nodded and said: "I have something to go out, so I will delay Mr. Wang."

"please!"

Even Lord Wang dared not stop Ma Rulong even if he had the guts, so the three of Ma Rulong walked out of the city gate and galloped along the official road.

About a quarter of an hour later, a team of thousands of cavalry marched towards Ma Rulong and the others in a neat formation, escorting a luxury carriage in the middle of the thousand-man team, with banners waving, on the official road. A collision without scruples. Let the pedestrians on the official road dodge to both sides of the official road in a panic.

Ma Rulong frowned slightly and said, "This is the envoy team from the Scorching Sun Kingdom, right? Very arrogant!"

On the side, Jian Mo showed a look of disgust on his face and said: "Their king is a pervert. I heard that heretics in cultivation need a cauldron every once in a while. Many women were tortured to death by him."

"Boom..."

The cavalry from Lie Sun Kingdom saw the three of Ma Rulong, but they didn't intend to stop at all. Instead, they accelerated and rushed towards the three of Ma Rulong. This made both Ma Rulong and Jian Mo's expressions darken.

but……

When the distance was close, the cavalry of Lie Sun Kingdom finally saw clearly that Ma Rulong and the three were wearing the costumes of Wu Zongdian, which made them turn pale with shock.

The Lie Sun Kingdom is a powerful country to the Crescent Moon Kingdom. So they went on a rampage in the Crescent Moon Kingdom. But for Wu Zongdian, they are nothing!

"Call..."

The cavalry of the Lie Sun Kingdom immediately reined in their horses, but the incident happened so suddenly that the thousand-man cavalry suddenly became chaotic.

"boom!"

The luxurious carriage door in the middle was pushed open vigorously, and a middle-aged scribe stuck his head out from the door and shouted:

"what happened?"

Then he was taken aback for a moment, he saw that following him coming to the Crescent Moon Kingdom, a rampant cavalry team in the Crescent Moon Kingdom was dodging aside, and then he heard a rush of horseshoes, three figures came from He flew past in front of him without even looking at him. His face turned livid at once, and then became pale and flustered again, because he saw clearly the clothes Ma Rulong and the others were wearing, quickly retracted his head, and closed the car door with a "bang".

Above the main hall of the Crescent Moon Kingdom.

Queen Crescent Moon sat high on the throne, looking at the envoy of the Sun Kingdom who came through the gate. At this time, the messenger's face was no longer pale and flustered, but arrogant. He simply clasped his fist at Qin Xianyue and said:

"Xiao Wencheng, envoy of the Scorching Sun Kingdom, pays his respects to Her Majesty the Queen."

A trace of anger flashed in Qin Xianyue's eyes, she took a breath, An Nai suppressed the anger in her heart, only helplessness remained in her heart. The Crescent Moon Kingdom is just a small kingdom, while the Lie Sun Kingdom is a medium-sized kingdom bordering on the Crescent Moon Kingdom. For the Kingdom of the Sun, the Kingdom of the Sun is the upper kingdom, and the Kingdom of the Moon pays tribute to the Kingdom of the Sun every year, so Qin Xianyue really does not have the guts to reprimand the envoy of the Kingdom of the Sun.

"Free gift!"

Xiao Wencheng took out a letter of credence from his bosom and said, "The minister congratulates the queen!"

Qin Xianyue frowned slightly and said, "Where does the joy come from?"

At this time, a eunuch had already taken the letter of credence from Xiao Wencheng and walked towards Queen Crescent Moon. Xiao Wencheng cupped his hands towards Qin Xianyue and said:

"Your Majesty the Queen, Your Majesty the King of this country, propose to the Seventh Princess of Her Majesty the Queen."

There was silence in the hall, and the expression of Queen Crescent Moon changed. He stretched out his hand to take the letter of credence handed over by the eunuch, opened it and flipped through it, his expression became even uglier. The letter of credence is more aggressive than what Xiao Wencheng said. He said, if Qin Xianyue agrees, that's all. Otherwise, he will come to marry in person.

What does it mean?

That is to say, Qin Xianyue should dress up Qin Shuang and send her to the country of Lie Sun, otherwise he will overwhelm the country with troops.

The muscles on Qin Xianyue's face became stiff and she said, "Please also ask Envoy Xiao to visit the capital for a few days."

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Queen!" Xiao Wencheng said proudly, "However, the foreign ministers can only stay in Crescent Moon City for three days, and will leave for the country after three days. I hope that Her Majesty the Queen can prepare everything. Three days later, the Seventh Princess will accompany the foreign ministers. go home."

Looking at Xiao Wencheng's arrogant back, Qin Xianyue clenched her teeth, one hand was already on the hilt of the sword at her waist, wishing she could split Xiao Wencheng in half with one sword.

"boom……"

Chaos broke out in the main hall, some clamored that this was a national humiliation, and they wanted to start a war with the Lie Sun Kingdom, and they also supported sending Qin Shuang to the Lie Sun Kingdom in exchange for the peace of the kingdom. It's just that soon those voices who thought it was a national humiliation were drowned out by those who supported sending Qin Shuang to the country of Lieyang. Qin Xianyue was upset, she slapped the imperial book case and shouted:

"Shut up, everyone!"

There was silence in the hall, Qin Xianyue glanced across the ministers, and finally landed on Prime Minister Qin Xungu, and said coldly:

"Prime Minister!"

"The minister is here!"

"I don't care what method you use. Before sunset today, I want to know why Liefeng from Lieyang Kingdom married Princess Seven! What is his purpose?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Retire!"

"Princess...princess..."

Qin Yunxia panicked and shouted outside the study door. In the study room, Qin Shuang was painting the ninth spirit pattern painting. Hearing Qin Yunxia's flustered voice outside the door, she frowned slightly, but didn't stop. When the painting reached the final stage, she ignored it. Qin Yunxia kept moving.

Qin Yunxia outside saw that Qin Shuang inside did not respond, and then remembered that Qin Shuang was drawing a spirit pattern painting, so she walked back and forth anxiously outside the door, looking at the door of the study from time to time.

About a quarter of an hour passed, the door opened from the inside, and Qin Shuang's figure appeared at the door, looking at Qin Yunxia and saying:

"What's up?"

"Princess!" Seeing Qin Shuang coming out, Qin Yunxia rushed to Qin Shuang's body in one step: "Princess, the king of the Lie Sun Kingdom sent an envoy to marry you as his concubine."

Qin Shuang's expression just changed, the Lie Sun Kingdom is right next to the Crescent Moon Kingdom, how could Qin Shuang not understand Liefeng, the king of the Lie Sun Kingdom?

It is rumored that Lie Feng is a tyrant, and he uses the furnace to cultivate. I don't know how many women died under his torture. According to rumors, even his queen was regarded as a furnace by him. To marry such a person, there is no other way but death. And it's not a good death, it's a tortured death.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself down.

"The queen mother agreed?"

"not yet."

Qin Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, and said after a moment of silence: "Let Yuan Ye come to see me."

"yes!"

Soon, Yuan Ye stood in front of Qin Shuang with a worried face, and he naturally heard the news.

"Yuan Ye, how is the resource acquisition going?"

"Reporting to the princess, the purchase has been completed."

"Get everyone ready to leave."

"Princess, you..."

"If Queen Mother finally agrees to the Lie Sun Kingdom, we will go to the imperial capital, and we will live as mercenaries in the future."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, this subordinate will go to prepare now."

"Go!"

"Princess..." Yuan Ye hesitated and said, "Are we looking for Mr. Lan..."

Qin Shuang shook her head and said, "I don't know where Mingyue is."

"Then... Mr. Qin..."

"It's too late! From the Crescent Moon Kingdom to the Imperial Capital, it takes two months to go back and forth, go down and prepare."

Looking at Yuan Ye's leaving back, Qin Shuang sighed in her heart, if the Queen Mother agreed to the Lie Sun Kingdom, would she be able to leave the capital smoothly?

royal palace.

Qin Xungu hurriedly walked towards the imperial study room. He spent a lot of gold, silver and jewels, and finally got the real news from Xiao Wencheng's mouth. After getting the real news, the worry on his face became more intense.

"Meet Your Majesty."

"Prime Minister, what's going on?" Qin Xianyue looked at Qin Xungu anxiously.

"Your Majesty!" There was a trace of despair in Qin Xungu's eyes, and he said three words: "Linghuhui!"

Qin Xianyue's expression turned pale in an instant, and she finally understood why Lie Feng wanted to marry Qin Shuang. Thinking back when Qinshuang made Linghuhui feel ashamed, Linghuhui even shouted in public that he wanted to kill Qinshuang and destroy the Xianyue Kingdom. What a result.

This must be because Linghu Hui dare not deal with Qin Shuang directly, but hates Qin Shuang to the bone, so she lobbied Lie Feng to do something against Qin Shuang. With Linghuhui's status, if he promised Liefeng some benefits, it would be easy for Liefeng to stand out for Linghuhui. The most important thing is that the Crescent Moon Kingdom is too weak compared to the Lie Sun Kingdom. For Liefeng, it is easy to clean up the Crescent Moon Kingdom.

Qin Xianyue's expression became entangled. After all, she is also Qin Shuang's mother. Any mother can watch her child die, especially the king of a country. It is not uncommon for her own child to die. Even in the history of the Crescent Moon Kingdom, many such things have happened.

but……

Giving death is one thing, sending one's own daughter to be tortured to death by others is another.

"Is there no room for change?" Qin Xianyue asked with hope.

"No!" Qin Xungu shook his head lightly.

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, a eunuch came in: "President Cao of Wu Zongdian Martial Academy please see me."

"What is he here for?"

Qin Xianyue instinctively felt that it was not a good thing for Dean Cao to come, because she knew that Qin Shuang had killed Sha Peng in the secret realm of Xianyue, and wanted to see him, but Wu Zongdian's detached status prevented her from doing so. Feeling bitter for a while, the Crescent Moon Kingdom is still too weak after all.

"please!"

Dean Cao walked into the imperial study room, cupped his hands towards Qin Xianyue and said, "I have seen Her Majesty the Queen."

Qin Xianyue stood up from the chair, with a smile on her face and said: "Dean Cao, please sit down."

Immediately, a eunuch moved a chair for Dean Cao, and after Dean Cao was seated, Qin Xianyue resisted the anxiety in her heart and said:

"Dean Cao, what's the matter with seeing Gu today?"

"Your Majesty!" Dean Cao said with a smile on his face, "Is Your Majesty embarrassing about the Seventh Princess?"

Qin Xianyue's eyes lit up: "Could it be that Dean Cao is here to help me?"

Dean Cao shook his head slightly, glanced at Qin Xungu, and Qin Xianyue said to Qin Xungu:

"Prime Minister, you should step down first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Qin Xungu saluted and retreated. Qin Xianyue looked at Dean Cao again. Dean Cao showed a smile on his face and said:

"Your Majesty, you must now know the reason why Lie Feng wants to marry the Seventh Princess, right?"

"You know?" Qin Xianyue looked at Dean Cao with a slightly cold gaze.

"Hehe..." Dean Cao brushed his beard and smiled, "It's very hard for you to get news from Xiao Wencheng, but it's not hard for me to know."

Qin Xianyue's heart was even more bitter, and she couldn't help but secretly sighed, this is the difference in strength!

"Your Majesty, you should be very clear by now that as long as the Seventh Princess arrives in the Lie Sun Kingdom, she will die, and she will still be tortured to death."

Qin Xianyue took a deep breath, lowered her posture, stood up from the chair, bowed to Dean Cao and said:

"Also ask Dean Cao to help me."

Dean Cao shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you should know that Seventh Princess killed my beloved disciple Sha Peng."

"I...I can make it up to..."

"Compensation? How to compensate? Can you make Sha Peng come back to life? Hehe...Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, the godsend who killed Sha Ying is no longer alive. This is my revenge for Sha Ying. Do you think I will let him go? Passed Qin Shuang?"

Qin Xianyue straightened her waist, even though she was afraid of Wu Zongdian, she couldn't help feeling angry at this moment.

"Dean Cao, are you here to play tricks on me?"

"No!" Dean Cao waved his hand and said, "I'm just here to give His Majesty two choices."

"Two choices? What choice?"

"One is that Qin Shuang was tortured to death by the strong wind, and the other is that Qin Shuang was simply killed by me." Resentment appeared in Dean Cao's eyes.

The anger in Qin Xianyue's heart almost burned herself up, with a sneer on her face and said:

"Then it's better for me to give Shuang'er a glass of poisoned wine, so why let you do it!"
