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

Sikong Mingyue immediately realized that she had fallen into Sikong Qingyun's trap and hurriedly lowered her head to admit her mistake.

"My daughter is wrong. She just has a few things she wants to say to her father."

The southwest king's face became a little better, "Let's wait until I come back from Shou'an Town."

"No, father, just give me a quarter of an hour." Sikong Mingyue begged her father.

The Southwest King was silent for a moment, then turned to Sikong Qingyun and said: "You go prepare the carriage and horses first, and then we will meet at the gate of the palace."

Sikong Qingyun glanced at Sikong Mingyue, then nodded, "Yes."

Sikong Mingyue walked through the whip once, and it actually hurt very deeply. His face turned pale from the pain, and his legs felt weak when he walked.The Southwest King was naturally distressed, but he was not good at expressing himself. He only asked coldly: "Do you know you were wrong this time?"

"Oh."

"Now that you know your mistake, then stay in the palace from now on and don't go out to cause trouble again."

"Why don't father lock the door of my courtyard and seal the windows?"

King Southwest stopped and said, "It seems you are very unconvinced!"

Sikong Mingyue stuck out her tongue. There was simply no one else here, so she nodded honestly, "Yes, I don't think I did anything wrong. Save King Dai, because he has helped our people in the southwest, I can't sit idly by and do nothing. And outside Shou'an Town , the imperial soldiers slaughtered the people of my tribe, but Sikong Qingyun refused to open the city gate to protect him, and even watched the people being killed. Yan Mu and I were surrounded by enemy troops to protect the people, but was it really just because of the curfew? No , that’s because our twelve tribes are afraid of the Xianbei people from the bottom of our hearts!”

"Shut up!" King Southwest roared.

Sikong Mingyue pursed her lips, "But if we don't free up this land for the Xianbei people, this battle will happen sooner or later. My father and other leaders know it clearly, so why do they still whitewash peace?"

"What do you think?" Southwest King asked coldly.

"Because I am not a man, because I cannot get married, and there is no successor in our palace, so they have other plans, and everyone is divided."

"You make things too simple."

"But what if I can marry someone who has the ability to lead the twelve tribes out of trouble?"

King Southwest frowned, "Who is this person?"

Sikong Mingyue's eyes lit up, "Yan Mu!"

The king of Southwest roared, "He is from Da Rong!"

"Is it better than the Xianbei people?"

"you……"

"I don't need to say more about his abilities. I think my father has heard about it a long time ago. Moreover, he is the king of Zhenbei and has the power and soldiers in his hands. As long as he is willing to help us, we will definitely be able to establish a foothold in the southwest. The court does not dare to force us anymore. .”

The King of Southwest thought for a moment, "He is not only the King of Zhenbei, he is also the father of the new Emperor Da Rong and the husband of the Queen Mother. In other words, he has a wife and children, and you still want to marry him?"

"It doesn't matter if he has a wife and children. I'm not really marrying him. It's just that I save him and he saves our Southwest. It's just cooperation."

"Nonsense!"

The king of Southwest felt that his daughter's idea was too naive and asked her to go back to his courtyard to reflect.

"I will go to Shou'an Town with my father!" Sikong Mingyue said anxiously.

"no!"

"If you don't take me there, I can go secretly by myself, just in case I get into trouble again..."

"you dare!"

Sikong Mingyue stepped forward and hugged Southwest King's arm, "Father, please take me there. I will put on men's clothes and sneak into your guards. I will not be discovered by others."

At this time, the King of Southwest really regretted teaching his daughter Kung Fu. She was not lying when she said she could escape.And this time, he didn't know how long it would take to come back, and he was really worried about his daughter being alone in the house.

"You, go change clothes quickly."

Here, Yan Mu and the others were taken into a prison van. They had just arrived in Hongye City, and before they could take a breath, they were escorted back again. After a lot of trouble, what were they trying to do?
The team traveled all day and rested in the woods in the evening.

The guards gave dry food, but not to anyone. Yan Mu looked at the wooden fence and asked for water, but those people ignored him.

Tuoba Siqi muttered a few words, probably to the effect of telling him to forget it and stop shouting.

Yan Mu snorted, "Aren't you thirsty?"

Tuoba Siqi nodded, which meant that he was also thirsty. "What my brother means is that it's useless to shout until your throat is broken, it will only make you thirstier and thirstier." Tuoba Feier said.

Yan Mu leaned against the railing and let out a long sigh, "I miss the prison, please put me back in prison."

Tuoba Feier curled her lips and said, "I tried so hard to save you. Even though I didn't succeed, I still tried my best. And now I'm a prisoner."

"thank you."

"What about sincerity?"

"When I return to Darong, I'll treat you to a big banquet."

"Can you go back?"

"There was hope, but thanks to you, there is no hope now."

Tuoba Feier glared at Yan Mu, knowing that he had nothing good to say.

The two bickered for a while, then a guard came over and handed over a water bag.

Yan Mu glanced at the guard first, then took the water bag, took a few gulps, and then gave it to Tuoba Feier and the others.

"You don't seem surprised to see me." Sikong Mingyue whispered.

Yan Mu looked at Sikong Mingyue and asked, "How many times have you gone through that whipping punishment?"

"How many more times? Ha, just one time almost killed me."

"It's not like that."

Sikong Mingyue curled her lips, "Most of the leaders have watched me grow up and are not willing to deal heavy blows."

That said, they were just intimidated by her father's power.

"Princess Mingyue is so capable, I don't think she will miss this excitement." Yan Mu explained.

Tuoba Si Qi was wilting, but then he recognized Sikong Mingyue and hurriedly leaned over, making an anxious sound.Sikong Mingyue hurriedly hissed at him and glared at him fiercely.

"You want me to be discovered, shut up!"

Tuoba Siqi hurriedly covered her mouth, but still looked at her worriedly.

Sikong Mingyue said in a low voice, "I'm fine."

After hearing this, Tuoba Siqi felt relieved.

"My father is going to hand you back to the court. You must be mentally prepared first, but I will find a way to convince my father to keep you." After saying this, a guard came over, and Sikong Mingyue hurriedly got up and left.

"Wait, how do you convince your father?" Yan Mu asked hurriedly.

Sikong Mingyue winked at him and then trotted out.

Yan Mu pursed his lips, feeling like he had a bad premonition.

After a short rest, they continued on their night journey.When it was almost noon the next day, we finally arrived at Shou'an Town.

Yan Mu and Tuoba Siqi were taken to the city tower. Looking from the city tower in the distance, they could see the camp of the imperial army.There were actually many corpses in the camp, piled up like a hill.

King Southwest frowned and asked what happened to those corpses?

Sikong Qingyun stepped forward, sighed, and said, "They massacred a village near Shou'an Town."

The Southwest King gritted his teeth, "They keep saying that the Twelve Tribes are also people of Western Vietnam, which is bullshit!"

"Second uncle, no matter what, the military strength of Southwest China and the imperial court is too different. If we really want to fight, we will not be able to win." Sikong Qingyun said.

King Southwest turned blue. Although these words were harsh, they were indeed true.

"I have sent the deputy general to negotiate. We will hand over the criminals to them and they will retreat."

Yan Mu laughed when he heard this.

"Why are you laughing?" Sikong Qingyun asked in a deep voice.

"I laugh at you for being so naive!" He clapped his chin. "Is it possible that they mobilized so many troops just to scare you into handing over the two of me?" (End of Chapter)
