C206 (1/2)
The chaos ended in countless deaths.
After the black-clothed men retreated into the encirclement, the tide-like beasts also retreated.
The garrison troops of the Liu City didn't bother to clean up the battlefield as they threw themselves into the fire extinguishing formation.
The heavily injured Mo Lianyun was placed in a flat area, where the imperial physician was currently helping him staunch his bleeding.
Imperial Noble Consort Chun stood at the side crying miserably.
Inside the temporary tent, Emperor An and Mo Lianjin stood facing each other.
”Are you going to explain to me why the garrison troops of Liu City were brought here?”
Together with Su Li, we investigated the situation to the State Grandmaster. Combined with the fact that the envoys were constantly changing details, this son guesses that this round would cause chaos. On that day, someone lured me into a trap, and after I faked my death, I went to the Liu City and brought some people over.
Mo Lianjin explained, he was worried that the people from Bei Yue would leave spies in the capital.
Therefore, he did not return to the capital to call for reinforcements, lest he alert the enemy.
Emperor An looked at him coldly, ”Since when did the Liu City's garrison have to listen to your orders?”
Mo Lianjin gave a fake soldier token, ”This son dares, and made a mistake. If father wants to punish me, this son will take it.”
Emperor An clenched his fists tightly. Looking at Mo Lianjin who was not afraid at all to retreat, he hated Mo Lianjin's actions in his heart, but he knew that it was all thanks to him bringing his troops here that this situation was resolved.
Not to mention the ministers, even the warriors of Liu City would not be convinced!
Just as Emperor An was about to speak, a voice came out from outside the tent.
”Stars Pet Chain Supermarket has returned, where is Fifth Sister-in-law?” The one who spoke was Mo Chanyu.
Emperor An only felt a flash before his eyes, and Mo Lianjin was already gone.
Mo Lianjin walked out of the tent, and saw Stars Pet Chain Supermarket with a single glance, ”Where is Su Li?”
Stars Pet Chain Supermarket expressionlessly met Mo Lianjin's gaze. ”I only found this one.”
With that, he handed a stone over.
Mo Lianjin looked at the words written on the stone with blood traces, ”State Grandmaster, go to Bei Yue.”
His expression suddenly changed and became as cold as ice.
Su Li was brought to the Bei Yue by the State Grandmaster!
He lost her!
”Your Highness.” When Flute Tree saw that the prince left as soon as he said, she hurriedly blocked his path on his left and right, ”Be careful, your highness.”
Emperor An also walked out, ”What happened?”
”Your son will leave first.”
”Has This Emperor allowed you to leave?” Emperor An's face darkened. If it was anyone else, who dared to be so presumptuous in front of him, he would definitely dismember that person's body.
However, it was Mo Lianjin who was both on his guard and in need of him!
Mo Lianjin looked at Emperor An, ”Su Li's whereabouts are unknown, no matter where she is, this son will go and bring her back.”
”You're too presumptuous. Right now, the most important thing is to capture those from the Bei Yue and guard against those from the Bei Yue. You can't go anywhere.”
Mo Lianjin's emotionless eyes squinted slightly, her voice was cold enough to freeze the air, ”Your son will take his leave.”
With that, he immediately left.
Stars Pet Chain Supermarket and Green Wood Flute followed along.
Mo Lianjin strode forward with a cold expression.
No one dared to stop him along the way, so he took the initiative to make a path and watched as he mounted his horse and headed towards the north.
The Emperor An pointed to the direction Mo Lianjin left in, his entire body trembling in anger.
”father, don't be angry. Fifth brother went to find Fifth Sister-in-law because Fifth brother was a loyal man and had deep affection for his wife. Marquis Cheng'en and General Su both went to chase after Bei Yue people. Mo Lianlang racked his brains to speak up for his fifth brother.
Emperor An angrily retracted his hand, then turned and went back into the tent.
Su Li followed the State Grandmaster for three days, from the very beginning to the north and then to the later towards the east.
On this day, they arrived at a certain city and county. Both of them wore bamboo hats that covered their faces as they entered a restaurant.
