Chen Min laughed heartily. ”My lord, your foresight is extraordinary. I was right about you.”

Ban Chao was taken aback. ”Dispatching troops to collect them is indeed a plan,” he continued. Furthermore, sire has traveled thousands of miles to come to the Western Regions, how can you return empty-handed? ”

Ban Chao turned his worries into joy. ”Brother, if you have any ideas, you can just say so. You don't have to try me. ”

Chen Mubai thought for a moment and said, ”We can't go, we have to stay. Since King Shansan didn't tell the Huns that we are here, it means we are in the dark. They are in the open.” ”In that case, I might as well make the first move and take the Huns' ambassador …” At this point, Chen Mu made a head-slaying gesture with his hand at the nape of his neck.

Ban Chao took a deep breath and said seriously, ”It is better for them to die than for us. This is also to save the people from the war. Now that the situation is critical, we need you to make the decision immediately. There is no other way.”

Ban Chao hesitated, ”But... We do not yet know where the Huns have been placed. After all, we are a stranger, and the consequences of killing an envoy of the Hun in front of the eyes of the King of Shanshan are unthinkable. ”

Chen said, ”As far as I know, Huan Yanjie is the only one that King Hushan relies on. ”Let us take Huyan Jie and ask him where the Huns are staying. We will make an attack in the night and kill all the Huns, and by that time the world will be settled, and the Shishan kings will be afraid to go into detail.” As for how he would deal with the king in the future … It's all about you and Mr. Guo. ”

Actually, that was the plan that Ban Chao had in mind. Considering that Chen Min was a newcomer, he pretended to test the waters, ”This plan is dangerous. If it fails, we won't be able to keep our heads.”

Chen Mu sneered. He lowered his head to look at the wine cup and said, ”If you're afraid of death, then you should leave Shanshan as soon as possible and go back to Luoyang to move troops.” He had already made an agreement with Ban Chao to send a mission to the Western Regions, and would never follow him back to Luoyang. He said ”you” but did not say ”we”, and even if he did, he would not follow Ban Chao anymore.

After saying that, he stood up to leave, but Ban Chao grabbed his hand, ”Wait!”

”What else is there for me to do? I need to pack my luggage.” You should have made up your mind earlier. ” Chen Mu said coldly.

Ban Chao laughed out loud, ”Like you said, if I leave like this, then wouldn't the previous few thousand miles be a waste of time? Hu Yanjie is not someone to be trifled with. It's easier said than done to capture him. ”

Chen Mu knew what Ban Chao was trying to say. He immediately patted his chest and said, ”Huyan Jie is indeed strong. I am willing to lend a hand!”

Ban Chao laughed, ”Just one arm's worth of strength is not enough!”

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, and then said seriously, ”It's rare for you to think highly of me, my lord. Chen Mu will go through fire and water, and I will not refuse!”

Ban Chao laughed out loud. ”Alright, that's what I want.”

Chen Yu was secretly taking in everything that happened, and the conversation between the two of them was transmitted into his mind. The more he heard, the more shocked he became: This class was really powerful, to be able to get his father to work for him in just a few words. Something big must have happened tonight. Go and tell your brother to watch the show.

He and Chen Shuang had practiced martial arts since they were young, but they did not have the opportunity to display it. Tonight, when father wanted to deal with Huyan Jie, he wanted to call upon his brother to help father.

Chen Yu put away her magic and the room returned to how it was before. He held the Nine Revolutions Gourd in his arms and ran out the door excitedly. As soon as he opened the door, he bumped into Yin Ping. ”Mother …”

Yin Ping shouted, ”Panic! Where are you going?”

Chen Yu gave a sly smile. ”I want to help father fight.” Then he ran off without looking back.
