”What else do you want?”
Huyan Jie pondered for a moment, then raised her head and said, ”I also know that there are too many greedy officials around the king, even if you do not kill me today, many people in Shanshen Kingdom are still hoping for my death. Even if the king loves me dearly on the surface, but he is actually jealous of my abilities, afraid that I will be able to achieve great merits, so he fears me a long time ago.”
Chen Xie nodded. ”You're not a fool, it's just that sometimes you're too headstrong.”
Huyan Jie smiled bitterly, ”I have the army with me, so naturally I will keep my word. I am now a prisoner of war … It doesn't matter if you leave now, but I don't think you're willing to forgive me. The king is a vile person. Since he will not save me, he will be afraid that I will come after him when I go out, so not only will he ask me to die, but he will also give me some unwarranted crimes. ”But I don't want to live with eternal infamy and everlasting shame …”
”You really aren't stupid, then what do you want?” Chen Mubai asked.
Huan Yanjie thought for a moment, ”You will take me away from Shanshan, and there will be a little soldier in front of and behind the saddle. This humble one will not be able to thank you enough. ”
When she said these words, Hu Yanjie was looking at Yin Ping. However, he only had one eye and it was difficult for his eyes to meet Chen Mu's gaze. Chen Mu didn't notice anything strange in his eyes and said with a smile, ”You are a great general, how can you be willing to be a little pawn? I don't believe it either. ”
”Then I will join you in helping the big man build his career. As long as you don't attack my Shanshan Country, I will obey your commands.” With that, Hu Yan Jie stood up, and casually smashed a big bowl of meat, ”If you break this oath, heaven will kill the earth!”
Chen Mu hesitated for a moment. ”Do you think I should trust you?”
Yin Ping quickly held her husband's hand. ”Brother Mu, this man is very talented and skilled. How could he be someone from the pond? If he goes back on his word, your life would be in danger.”
Huyan Jie laughed out loud, ”I, Huyan Jie, am a man of my word, and I am not someone to be reprimanded. Even if I were to go back on my word, I would not do anything to my benefactor. Now that I have nowhere else to go, I turned to the big man. Why wouldn't you believe me? Madam, I don't mind telling you this: the reason why your son is alive is because I spared him.
”Yingzi is clearly going to die, how can she be merciful?” Yin Ping said angrily.
Hu Yan Jie smiled, ”If I really want to take his life, why would I take so long? Didn't you know that it was your Yu'er who had sent him into my hands? I just want to see, what exactly is that Yu'er trying to do? ”
When Yin Ping heard this, she was shocked, ”Little Shuang, is what he said true?”
Chen Ying was not good at lying, and stammered, ”I don't know the reason, but it was indeed brother who pushed me over …” But this man did hold me by the neck. ”
Yin Ping asked, ”But at that time, you were clearly already dead. It was the Five Ghosts of the desert who saved you. ”
Huyan Jie laughed, ”I was afraid that you would hurt my brother again, so I used the acupuncture point and hit his jade pillow, making you think that my brother is dead. You guys are not grateful to me, but you wanted to take my life just now.
