Hong Yu naturally wouldn't be so cordial when faced with Li Mu Yue's probing.
He was very clear on the logic of disaster. Even though his relationship with Li Muyue and Long Hetian was getting closer and closer, it was not to the point that he could entrust secrets about his family. There were many things he had to be careful of, in case he got into trouble.
”It's fine if you don't want to say it.” Seeing that he didn't say anything, Li Muyue lost her interest and gave a narrow smile, ”I see that your cultivation has deepened. In the future, you might be able to stand out among the many princes and dukes.”
”You're too kind.” Hong Yu was extremely calm, as if he was thinking, ”Like what the Blood-Thirsty Ape said, when the Evil God appears, and the barbarians wreak havoc in all directions, the situation in Liangzhou will become worrisome. If the situation corrupts and we ruin royal father's plan to take over the barbarians, then the three of us will be held accountable. royal father wants us to be the ones to be the punishment. ”
”You're right, this mission is very dangerous.” ”Your majesty's candle lights the nine nether regions of the world. It can reverse the flow of time and the sudden change of the barbarian race would never be able to hide from the emperor. Since the emperor has chosen to open the doors for the barbarians, then he must have a certain amount of certainty of victory. If the task is not important or dangerous, why would they give it to us? ”This is the test our emperor gave us three.”
”He Tian's words are reasonable, but the situation is not looking good right now. ”We haven't even entered the Liangzhou, yet we've already encountered the ambush of an expert like the Blood-Thirsty Barbarian Ape. We can imagine how bad the situation is right now.”
Li Muyue spoke in a serious tone: ”The three of us are Imperial Advisors in name, but we don't have any real power. No one will listen to our words. The political situation of the border pass was very complicated. If there was no one supporting them, then forget about suppressing the rebellion, whether or not they could return to the capital alive was something that could not be discussed. Especially right now, the one guarding the borders of the Liangzhou region is the Second Prince, Hong Futian. He has always been an ambitious person who has been in the Liangzhou region for many years, and is deeply rooted in it. He also has the intention to interfere in the battle for the throne.
”Second brother, Hong Fu Tian?” Hong Yu slightly paused for a moment as memories slowly surfaced.
Amongst the many princes, the one with the highest martial arts was naturally the fourth in the crown prince ranking, which no one could compare to. Next were the eldest prince, second prince, and third prince.
There were also old dukes like eighth and ninth elder. Although their strength was unfathomable, they did not have the former's deep influence or powerful strength.
Back then, when Hong Yu's mother was secretly murdered, there were many princes and consorts who participated in the incident and obtained many benefits.
Hong Yu remembered that when he was three or four years old, his second brother, Hong Futian, had sent someone to swindle a jade pendant off his body.
That jade pendant was also a treasure left behind by his mother. Thinking back now, it was probably an extraordinary treasure. However, the fact that he was captured by this person was something that he would never forget. His heart was filled with deep hatred.
”Boss stole one of Mother's Bodhi Children, and Second Brother also took a jade pendant. It seems that even if mother died in the past without their participation, there must have been a connection. One day, I will take back all the treasures that Mother left behind, otherwise, how can I be the son of man?” Hong Yu clenched his fists and made up his mind.
”Send out an urgent secret report to all the officials along the canal. The appearance of the Blood-Thirsty Barbarian Ape will definitely cause a massacre. The civilians will be massacred and they will have to prepare in advance.” Li Muyue began to handle matters and issue orders.
”Yes sir!”
”Also, He Tian, hurry up and leave for the Twin Realms Mountain. Go to your father's residence and send some experts over from under his command.”
”Yes, I will set off now.” Long He knew that the problem was serious, so he nodded and left.
”My Li family's undercover staves and scouts have all started moving. Tomorrow, I will see the latest news from Liangzhou on my table.”
”Yes sir!”
”...”
The number of people on the deck became fewer and fewer, as if they were all assigned missions. Only Hong Yu looked at Li Muyue with envy.
At this moment, he could see that the Iron-Blood Marquis' Lee family, who was standing behind Li Muyue, had created such a huge force. It seemed that everyone was of great use, and their respective responsibilities were like a delicate machine.
In fact, he even noticed that when Li Muyue reprimanded him, there was a sense of leadership emanating from him, and no one disagreed.
In fact, among the three of them, there was even a haughty woman who seemed to be in the lead. She didn't have any objections with regards to her decision.
