Mountains have trees and trees have branches

Chapter 170 The perfect end
Qing Huan returned to Fengcheng before dark.

She and Lian Chao went back to the cave, Qing Huan continued to stare at them, and Lian Chao went to find the person who cast the spell.

Fortunately, he was soon found. It was originally a little demon, who was promoted by Lang Lie to become a demon, and came to the world to do anything wrong.

With such abilities, he was naturally regarded as a guest of honor by Gui Shizhen. He is now Gui Shizhen's military adviser. It is said that Shan's wife has married several times.

Qing Huan curled her lips in distaste, "It's really worthless, you've become a demon, why are you still here?"

Lian Chao didn't speak, and asked for a long time, "What are you going to do?"

Qing Huan shook her head, "If there's nothing else to do, just keep watching, and when Brother Xiliang finishes his work, I'll save these people and go home."

Lian Chao was probably a little surprised.

"I thought you were going to help Mu Xiliang."

"I helped." Qing Huan glanced at him, "Didn't I send him a message, this has already helped him a lot."

Lian Chao looked at her silently, Qing Huan patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry! Brother Xiliang is much better than me, he can handle this matter, don't worry."

Lian Chao didn't speak, just glanced at her hand that was still on his shoulder, Qing Huan smiled, and retracted her hand wisely.

Three days later, Mu Xiliang sent her a message through Chalcedony that everything was ready, and now it was just waiting for Gui Shizhen to make a move.

Fortunately, that day was not too long.

About half a month later, in the middle of the night one day, a large group of people suddenly came, loaded all the weapons and took them away, and then prepared to kill these workers.

Qing Huan and Lian Chao rescued all the trapped workers in the cave.In order to prevent the news from leaking, Lian Chao was about to kill all the people who stayed behind in the cave, but was stopped by Qing Huan.

"They don't deserve to die, you just let them live."

Lian Chao glanced at her and said "a woman's benevolence", Qing Huan explained, "They are also obeying orders, and they are about to fight anyway. When Gui Shizhen is destroyed, no one will instruct them to do evil again."

Lian Chao frowned, he was not going to argue with Qing Huan on this matter, so he simply sealed the entrance of the cave so that they could not escape.

Since it is a military coup, it will naturally not be chosen during the day.Gui Shizhen originally ordered soldiers to sneak into Chengzhou in disguise, but for some reason, Xue Yanhe suddenly ordered martial law in Chengzhou city.

Gui Shizhen was a little afraid that things would go wrong, but relying on military advisers and internal support, if Chengzhou couldn't get in, he would lie in ambush around.

When all the personnel arrived, Gui Shizhen began to attack Chengzhou City at night.

According to the original plan, Midnight went to the city, captured Xue Yanhe alive on the eve of dawn, and ended all the fighting.

But strangely, Chengzhou City, which had no defenses, was unexpectedly difficult to attack. Gui Shizhen fought all night until dawn, without even touching the gate of Chengzhou City.

Gui Shizhen smashed his military cap and lost his temper in the tent.

"What's going on!! Did Xue Yanhe know our plan in advance?"

The military adviser smiled contemptuously, "Impossible! Our plan is perfect, maybe it's just a coincidence."

At this time, Gui Shizhen felt a little uneasy, "It's already dawn, and I attacked Chengzhou for no reason, which is already criticized by people. What if other warlords come to reinforce?"

A staff officer beside him said, "Don't worry, Commander, all communication lines from Chengzhou to the outside world have been cut off as early as nightfall, and it is impossible for them to send out a signal for help!"

Gui Shizhen felt a little more at ease, and said harshly, "Since this is the case, we have been fighting all night. Let the brothers rest and have a hot meal first. I don't believe that Chengzhou City is made of iron!"

"What you said is," the staff officer said courteously, "Don't we still have Xue Yanyong? The inner officers in the city should already be thinking of a solution by now. Don't worry."

Upon hearing Xue Yanyong's name, Gui Shizhen burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay, military teacher, we've been tired all night, so let's take a rest, and when we become dominant, we'll share the world!!"

But on Qing Huan's side, since the fight broke up at midnight, she passed the news to Mu Xiliang.

The troops had already been assembled, and Mu Xiliang ordered his generals, and immediately led people to prepare for departure.

At this juncture, Fang Meijing came.

She looked flustered, stopped Mu Xiliang and said, "Xiliang, what are you doing? Okay, what are you mobilizing troops for?"

Mu Xiliang didn't speak, Ding Heqiao had already gone to open the way.

Fang Meijing's eyes darkened, "Xiliang, you really want to join hands with Xue Yanhe."

She was heartbroken and disappointed, "Xiliang, will I harm you? You will regret it if you take the initiative to provoke a war like this."

Mu Xiliang looked at her, and happened to pass by a staff officer, Mu Xiliang stopped him, and ordered, "Send Director Fang home,"

After a pause, he looked at Fang Meijing, "Meijing, it's not safe these days. If you have nothing to do, don't go out. I don't need you here for the time being, so go back first."

After finishing speaking, he patted Fang Meijing on the shoulder, strode past her and walked away.Fang Meijing froze in place, and after a long time, she clenched her palms tightly.

The long nails pierced the palm, which was slightly wet.

"I don't need you here for the time being, so go back."

This sentence was like a curse, turning over and over in Fang Meijing's mind, she suddenly felt sorry for herself and felt that she was useless.

The staff officer instigated by Mu Xiliang naturally felt a little bit of meaning. He glanced at Fang Meijing carefully and said, "Director Fang, look..."

Before she finished speaking, Fang Meijing suddenly turned her head, her eyes were frosty.

"I'll go back myself, don't bother you!"

After finishing speaking, she quickly turned around and went out. The staff officer frowned in embarrassment, but followed.

Mu Xiliang moved extremely fast, and he was well prepared, so he set off half an hour later.

Before leaving, Mu Zhonglin had also contacted another warlord who had intercourse with him, and the two came out from the north and the south, forming a pincer attack on Gui Shizhen, but at nine o'clock in the morning, Mu Xiliang had already arrived outside Chengzhou City.

He deliberately slowed down, and Gui Shizhen's troops in front were already vaguely visible.

Not long after, a spy came back to report that Gui Shizhen had been attacking all night, and the troops rested after dawn. Except for a small amount of vigilance, most of the rest of the troops rested.

Mu Xiliang nodded and called out "He Huaiyuan", and a tall and thin young man ran forward immediately.

"Pull up your artillery regiment and try to press Gui Shizhen to death on the ground!"

"Cheng Biao!"

A chunky soldier came running, "Dao!"

"After He Huaiyuan completes the task, you take your 26th regiment to clean up the battlefield. Before noon, I will settle the battle!"

All deployments have been in place, Mu Xiliang checked again with a telescope, and said softly, "Start."

There is no suspense in winning this battle.

Gui Shizhen's troops were completely dead and wounded, and almost lost their combat effectiveness.

Gui Shizhen tried to escape in vain, but was captured alive on the spot by Ding Heqiao's guard battalion.

On the other side, Wu Jinzhong's troops attacked from the other side and basically wiped out another group of people who attacked Chengzhou City.

After the artillery stopped, Mu Xiliang sent a report to the city, and after a while, the city gate slowly opened.

Xue Shaochen came to pick him up in person.

Mu Xiliang glanced behind him, the city was still in order, and there was no sign of a war.

"It seems to be resolved."

Although the tone was affirmative, Mu Xiliang's expression was light and heavy.

That mole, named Xue Yanyong, is Xue Yanhe's own brother.

Xue Shaochen was not as heavy as him, he just patted Mu Xiliang on the shoulder, "Let's go to the city now, after running around all night, what's the matter, let's talk slowly after enough rest."

Mu Xiliang's mission has been completed.

What happened in Chengzhou City and how Xue Yanhe would deal with the rebels was not in Mu Xiliang's consideration.

He washed off the dust a little, but lay on the bed but couldn't sleep.

Qing Huan was always in his heart, and he didn't know where she was now.

Mu Xiliang sat up from the bed at once.

He took out the chalcedony and silently said Qing Huan's name in his heart.

But for a long time, chalcedony didn't react as quickly as last time.

Mu Xiliang was a little disappointed, but on second thought, maybe she was busy.

Mu Xiliang lay back on the bed again, staring at the ceiling in a daze, for a long time, suddenly there was a familiar scent in the air.

Mu Xiliang paused, and sat up abruptly.

This is the scent of the perfume he gave Qing Huan after he knocked over the perfume Luo Heng gave her last time!
He hurriedly looked into the room, and saw Qing Huan slowly appearing in the air like a god, and then landed in front of him.

She has not yet put away her spirit body, her long hair is loose, and her muscles are icy and fine.

She bent down slightly, her eyes smiling into crescent moons.

"I heard that someone is looking for me!"

She smiled mischievously at him, and the deepest part of Mu Xiliang's heart seemed to be poked, and he stretched out his hand to hug her without hesitation.

Time seemed to freeze.

Qing Huan secretly received the spirit body in his arms, trying to push him away, tried several times, but couldn't.

Where she couldn't see, Mu Xiliang's eyes were firm.

"Qing Huan, I will not give you up to anyone."

He suddenly said this for no reason.

Qing Huan was stunned for a moment, wanting to tease him, but thinking that it was not time to be together yet, so she pushed him away.

Mu Xi suddenly grabbed her hand.

Mu Xiliang didn't speak, just looked at her, and after a long time, slowly let go.

"Now that the battle here is over, I may not be able to go back for a few days."

Qing Huan raised her eyebrows, "Are you going to watch Xue Yanhe kill Gui Shizhen before returning to Huating?"

Probably to do so just in case.

Mu Xiliang shook his head.

"As long as I clean up the battlefield, I will withdraw my troops. After all, I came to King Qin in name, and now my goal has been achieved, so there is no need to stay any longer."

Qing Huan glanced at him with a playful smile, "You have made such a great contribution, Xue Yanhe will definitely repay you, isn't it too unreasonable for you to leave like this?"

Mu Xiliang also laughed, "Whether to repay is his business, or not is my business. I also have to let him know that I came to serve the king, not because of the things he gave. If I want it sincerely, I am afraid that he will I can't afford it."

Qing Huan was immediately happy.

"Well, I don't care about the matters between you men, so I'll go back first, and I'll wait for you in the courtyard."

Mu Xiliang was taken aback, and quickly stopped her, "Wait!"
