Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

This woman wore strange clothes covered with silver pendants, with a silver crescent moon as a headdress, and a red veil on her face. She came on horseback, looking heroic.

Taking advantage of the opponent's confusion, the woman killed seven or eight warriors and rushed to Yan Mu and the others.

"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you get on your horse!"

Yan Mu gritted his teeth and used all his strength to deal with the three warriors surrounding him. Then he pulled Tuoba Feier onto his horse and rushed out with the woman.

"Sikong Mingyue! These two are serious offenders of the imperial court. If you dare to attack them, you are going against the imperial court!" Prince Liang shouted from behind.

The woman turned around and glanced at Prince Liang contemptuously, "Idiot, if I, Sikong Mingyue, were afraid of your court, I would not have left the court with the twelve tribes!"

"You, are you going to start a war?"

"Oh, it won't happen sooner or later!"

The woman showed no fear, which made King Liang gnash his teeth with hatred. However, his men were all killed in pieces, so he really didn't dare to confront her head-on.

After going forward for more than ten miles, Yan Mu and Tuoba Feier breathed a sigh of relief when they were sure that King Liang's men had not caught up with them.

"Sister Mingyue!" Tuoba Feier shouted happily, "I knew you wouldn't leave me alone!"

Sikong Mingyue turned back and glared at Tuoba Feier, "It's enough that I can promise you to meet you a hundred miles away, but you were stupid enough to be caught up by Tuoba Siheng as soon as you left the city."

"I didn't expect them to be so fast, but you should be a hundred miles away. How could you know we were trapped and come to pick us up?"

"Humph, I expected it."

"Ah, then you didn't show up earlier."

"I saved your brother first, and then I came to save you."

Hearing that Tuoba Siqi had been rescued, Tuoba Feier and Yan Mu felt relieved.

Sikong Mingyue looked at Yan Mu again, looking at him carefully, his expression becoming more and more serious.

Tuoba Feier said hurriedly: "This is the Zhenbei King of Darong. He is a good friend of my brother and I. Well, he is a good person. Sister, please help him and send him to the border."

"Now that King Liang has caught up with you, do you think you can still go to the border?"

"Can……"

"Okay, follow me back to Hongye City first."

Tuoba Feier was a little anxious, and Yan Mu waved his hand at her.

"Thank you for saving me, girl. I'm just in an emergency, so I'm leaving." As he said this, Yan Mu clasped his fists at Sikong Mingyue and said goodbye.

"Whatever." Sikong Mingyue said.

Yan Mu looked at Tuoba Feier again and nodded to her, "You and your brother should follow this girl. When I return to Darong, I will bring you a letter."

"Then be careful." Tuoba Feier said.

Yan Mu smiled, "Okay, thank you this time."

Tuoba Feier curled her lips, "You were clearly mean to me just now."

Seeing that it was getting daybreak and there was not much time, Yan Mu stopped talking nonsense and turned the horse's head immediately. However, he had suffered some injuries in the battle just now. He just pulled it and the pain made him gasp a little.

He planned to go east, but before he left, he heard the sound of horse hooves. Looking into the distance through the night, he could see the fire dragon with torches surrounding the city. There must be hundreds of people.

King Liang is catching up!

"If you were smart, you should come back to Hongye City with me first and then make plans." Sikong Mingyue said.

Yan Mu exhaled, and that was all he could do now.

"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Sikong."

Sikong Mingyue glanced at him, grabbed the reins, flicked the whip, and galloped away.Yan Mu and Tuoba Feier hurriedly followed, followed by three NO.40 Sikong Mingyue's men.

The group of people fled for more than a hundred miles and finally met up with Tuoba Siqi.

Yan Mu got into the carriage and Tuoba Feier helped bandage his wounds.

At this time, the sky was slowly getting brighter. I don’t know if anyone had left King Liang behind, but they were still walking quickly to the southwest.After bandaging the wound, Yan Mu put on his clothes and looked at Tuoba Siqi again, seeing a melancholy look on his face.

"What's wrong with your second brother?" Yan Mu asked.

Tuoba Feier rolled her eyes and said, "My mood must be quite complicated."

"How to say?"

"When he was still young, his father made a marriage contract between him and Sister Mingyue, but he did not love power and only loved doing business, which disappointed his father very much. Sister Mingyue is the daughter of the leader of the twelve tribes in the southwest, and she is destined to have only Marrying a powerful monarch or His Highness, if he chooses to put down his power, the engagement will not count. Even so, he still rejected his father's desire to pass on to him, stayed away from Kyoto, and traveled around Doing business. And Sister Mingyue has been delayed by this engagement and is still not married yet."

"So it was your second brother who failed me." Yan Mu concluded.

"It's not just the emotional debt. After my brother ascended the throne, he felt that the southwest was a hidden danger, so he targeted it everywhere. In the end, the twelve tribes in the southwest were forced to break away from the imperial court. There were conflicts in consecutive years, and the tribesmen suffered from the war."

"If your second brother had ascended the throne and married Sikong Mingyue, the situation in the southwest would not have become like this..."

Tuoba Feier nodded, "That's why Sister Mingyue really hates him."

Yan Mu raised his eyebrows, "Then why did Sikong Mingyue agree to save him?"

"Later, he started doing business and made a lot of money, which was all used to help the people of the Twelve Tribes. The people were grateful to him, and Sister Mingyue's hatred of him also eased a little."

Yan Mu looked at Tuoba Siqi again. It was obvious that he had not heard what they said and was still immersed in his own world.

"He likes Sikong Mingyue?" Yan Mu asked.

Tuoba Feier shook his head, "No, every time he sees Sister Mingyue, he will find a way to sneak away."

After running like this for a day and a night, the horse couldn't run anymore and had to rest temporarily.

Yan Mu and Tuoba Feier got off the carriage. Several fires had been lit outside. Sikong Mingyue was sitting in front of one of the fires, roasting dry food.

The two went over and expressed their gratitude again.

Sikong Mingyue threw a bag of dry food over, "First fill your stomach."

Yan Mu and Tuoba Fei'er took out dry food and baked it. Tuoba Fei'er had a sweet mouth and coaxed Sikong Mingyue to finally smile.

"Sister Mingyue, my second brother..." Tuoba Feier was silent for a moment, then whispered: "He was tortured in prison and his tongue was cut out."

Sikong Mingyue looked understanding, "No wonder he kept his head down and didn't say a word."

"Do you dislike him?"

"meeting."

Tuoba Feier's eyes widened, "Sister Mingyue, my second brother is already in a miserable state. If you despise him again, how pitiful he will be."

"Oh, what does it have to do with me that he is pitiful? He was the one who refused to marry me in the first place, and he was the one who ran away again and again. I save him now as a reward for his help to Southwest over the years. I owe no one to anyone."

This was said indifferently, but Tuoba Feier could not refute it. It was her second brother who did something wrong.

Tuoba Fei'er baked a piece of dry food and took it to Tuoba Siqi.

Sikong Mingyue looked at Yan Mu and said, "I've heard of you."

Yan Mu was slightly startled, thinking that Sikong Mingyue had a cold temperament and was not willing to talk to others, especially strangers.

"Is it."

"You are the North King of Darong Town. You have made great achievements in battle and are a great hero who stands upright."

"actually……"

"Doesn't it live up to its name?"

Yan Mu was speechless, he originally wanted to be modest.

"But you're pretty good-looking."

"……"What's the meaning?
Sikong Mingyue suddenly said seriously: "As for me, I never suffer any loss. Since I saved you, then you can pledge yourself to me." (End of Chapter)
