After breaking off the engagement, I became the favorite of the God of War, Prince

"Miss, there is news from King Chu!"

Xiao Qing hurried into the house and shouted loudly that it had been a month since King Chu went on an expedition, and Xiao Qing would hang around the city gate every day.

Today, Xiaoqing went to the city gate as usual, and unexpectedly ran into a messenger. This man rode a dragon horse with eight small flags on his back, and rushed into the imperial capital at lightning speed.

At the same time, a loud voice resounded throughout the street: "Great victory, the King of Chu captured the Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages of the Southern Barbarians three days ago, and his troops were directed towards the Man City!"

"Did you hear that? The King of Chu won. In just one month, he captured the Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages of the Southern Barbarians. This is really impressive!"

The Nanman area is mountainous and steep. The Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages are among the largest cities in the Southern Barbarians. Each of them is heavily guarded. However, Mo Wuxie was able to capture the Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages within a month. It is simply incredible!

"Hehe, His Highness the King of Chu is the God of War of our Qingxuan Dynasty. He can easily capture even Man City, not to mention the Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages of the Southern Barbarians!"

"Great, now let's see if those barbarians still dare to be arrogant and bully the people of my Qingxuan Dynasty. They will be punished now!"

Because of this good news, the entire imperial capital was in a state of excitement, and the people talking in the streets and alleys were all about King Chu Mo Wuxie.

In the palace, after receiving the battle report, a smile appeared on Mo Tianxiao's gloomy face for many days. Mo Wuxie had never let him down.

"Haha, okay, you are indeed my Qilin'er. Now let's see if those Nanman dare to be arrogant!"

The Southern Barbarians invaded the Qingxuan border many times, burning, killing, and looting, which gave Mo Tianxiao a headache. This time, Mo Wuxie almost crushed them all the way to Man City, and incorporated most of the Southern Barbarians' territory into the territory of the Qingxuan Dynasty.

Mo Tianxiao was delighted, a reward was essential, but now that Mo Wuxie is not here, who should he reward it to?

"I heard that when Wuxie went to war, his fiancée made a bundle for him. Is this true?"

"Back to the emperor, it is indeed true. Miss Luo Xi is also a strange woman. She actually sent the King of Chu off with her hair in a bun. She is a woman who dares to love and hate!"

Mo Tianxiao also nodded and said: "This woman is indeed good. No wonder Wuxie likes her so much. In this case, let's pick some elixirs from the inner treasury and send them to her!"

"Yes, I'll do it now, slave!"

Soon the father-in-law beside Mo Tianxiao appeared in the palace. When she saw this father-in-law, Luo Xi was still a little confused and hadn't figured out what was going on.

But when this father-in-law came to deliver the imperial edict, he must have come on behalf of the emperor. He should kneel down to receive the edict. However, when the father-in-law saw this, he stopped her and said, "Princess Chu, there is no need to salute. This is the emperor's oral order!"

Luo Xi was slightly startled, but she still did as she was told. She didn't like kneeling back and forth, so it would be nice to be able to stand and receive orders.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu fought bravely at the front and captured the nine cities and thirteen villages of the Southern Barbarians. He achieved great success. The emperor was happy and asked his servants to select some elixirs from the inner treasury and deliver them to Princess Chu!"

Mo Wuxie performed meritorious service, but he was the one who received the reward. Luo Xi was a little confused, but her heart was filled with pride.

"Thank you very much, Emperor. I've also taken the trouble to make a trip, and I'll take the money to drink tea with you!"

Luo Xi handed a piece of silver to her father-in-law. The father-in-law said with a smile, "Thank you so much, Princess Chu, for the reward!"

He would not accept gifts from ordinary people, but Luo Xi was different. She was Mo Wuxie's princess, and Mo Wuxie had a very high status in the emperor's heart, so the father-in-law kept his attitude very low and called himself a slave, while Luo Xi gave Her money was also a reward, and she completely regarded Luo Xi as her master.

The father-in-law accepted the money, then bowed and said: "It's over here. I have to return to the palace to resume my life. I won't disturb Princess Chu's rest. Take my leave!"

"Father-in-law, walk slowly!"

Luo Xi sent her father-in-law out of the door, then turned back and looked at the elixir on the table, her thoughts drifting to Mo Wuxie.

"Xiao Qing, what do you think the prince is doing right now?" Luo Xi asked, looking into the distance. "My lord, you should be attacking the city!" Xiao Qing said.

"That must be the case. He will definitely capture Man City as quickly as possible and then come back!"

Luo Xi said confidently, because she knew that Mo Wuxie must have missed her too.

……

Nanman, outside the barbarian city!

Mo Wuxie led an army of 100,000 men and surrounded Man City. At this time, Man City was in a desperate situation.

In the Chinese army's tent, Mo Wuxie was sitting in the main position with his brows furrowed. This time they fought very smoothly, but it was precisely because it went so smoothly that he felt a little uneasy!

The people of the Southern Barbarians are called barbarians because they are brave and fierce. However, when Mo Wuxie attacked the Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages, the resistance he encountered was not as great as expected. This is why he was able to fight like this. The reason why he captured the Nine Cities and Thirteen Villages in a short period of time.

Although his attack speed was very fast, Mo Wuxie did not lose his cool because of this and could not let the victory go to his head.

Therefore, after leading people to surround Man City, Mo Wuxie did not start attacking the city immediately. After all, they traveled a long distance and needed time to rest.

Another point is that if you besiege and fail to attack, the barbarians in the barbarian city will be uneasy. Over time, there will definitely be chaos. At that time, it will be a good opportunity to send troops.

Of course, the most important point is that Mo Wuxie always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it, so he had to deduce it over and over again every step he took. He could not and did not dare to be careless.

"Your Majesty, when will we attack Man City? Brothers can't wait!"

"Yes, my gang of brats have been clamoring all day long to attack Man City. I'm afraid that if I delay any longer, the energy of those brats will be exhausted!"

If you do not attack the city for a long time, the blood and courage of the soldiers below will also fade over time!

"We don't know the situation in the city yet. If we attack the city rashly, although we can capture the city, we will definitely suffer heavy losses and the gain will not be worth the loss!"

Mo Wuxie also knew that blood and courage would be wiped out, but he was unwilling to exchange the lives of soldiers for victory.

"Has our spy returned?" Mo Wuxie asked.

There is also an informant for the development of ANBU in Man City, but now that Man City is sealed, the information transmission is not so smooth.

"not yet!"

Lin Yunxiao shook his head. He sent out several waves of people, but no one came back.

"Report! The spy is back!"

"Okay, let them in quickly!"

Mo Wuxie's face flashed with joy and he quickly let the spy in.

"I have met the prince and generals!"

The spy saluted Mo Wuxie and the general in the tent, then handed a bamboo tube sealed with wax to Mo Wuxie and said, "Your Majesty, this is the news from the ANBU brothers in the city. Please check it out!"

Mo Wuxie took the bamboo tube and checked the seal. There was no sign of damage. Then with a slight shock, the bamboo tube broke open and a parchment letter fell out! .

When he saw the content of the letter clearly, Mo Wuxie's expression couldn't help but change...
