C52 (1/2)

”Zi Yuan, it's been hard on you. Look at Wang Fei's death, it's time to vent the anger in your heart.” As for Zi Yuan, he was not a young girl who didn't understand the situation, but he immediately suppressed his emotions when he saw how concerned Helian Lie was for him.

”The Violet Garden knows, it's just that she's in the wrong. I hope the Emperor doesn't blame her.”

”Hehe, it's good that you're fine. Next up, we should discuss the next step.” Helian Lie was elated when he saw that Zi Yuan had woken up. At this moment, the first victory in the army required a thorough plan of what to do next. The two of them were in the military camp discussing countermeasures to deal with Murong Xiu.

Your Majesty, it seems to me that the morale of the army is at its lowest right now. If we continue to increase our strength and rush forward, the enemy will surely return in defeat.” Zi Yuan calmed down as well and analyzed the situation. Indeed, at this moment, the morale of the army from the west was already low. If they were to rush over now, there was a high chance of them winning the battle.

”Ahh, do you think I don't know? But even if you do, you can't act rashly!” Helian Lie sighed helplessly.

”Why? Could it be that the opponent still has some other killing move that he hasn't used yet?” Zi Yuan asked in confusion.

”Oh, Zi Yuan, let me ask you, how are the strength of my army and that Western Li Army?” Helian did not explain, but turned around and asked.

”Our strength is that of a great general, a level higher than that of that great general Xi Li. However, our overall strength is still not enough.” Zi Yuan also analyzed the situation honestly.

So, just the bravery of a general is useless. After I came here this time, I had the wrong judgement about the Western Parting army. I thought that Murong Xiu would only bring two-thirds of the Western Parting army, but right now, there's no way to estimate them! He was indeed unable to estimate the other party's strength. However, Helian had gone all out this time and was definitely going to swallow Helian and his group. However, at this moment, he had suffered such a heavy injury.

”Ah, you mean to say, they brought out all of Xi Li's remaining strength this time? ”Then what should we do if there's competition within the palace? Murong Xiu shouldn't be so stupid.” If Murong Xiu really had brought all of Xi Li's soldiers over, then Xi Li would be nothing more than an empty shell right now.

”Haha, you still don't understand Murong Xiu well enough. Although he is our enemy, in some ways, he is the only one on our path to power. He must have some tricks up his sleeve, and that Xi Li Emperor is different from me. Their emperor is only a child, and Murong Xiu is the Regent. Everything is under Murong Xiu's control. Think about it, Xi Li is not Murong Xiu's opponent.” In Helian Lie's opinion, Murong Xiu was a schemer, a schemer, and a match for him. In Helian Lie's opinion, Murong Xiu was a great enemy in his path to power.

”Doesn't that mean our spies are useless there?” He was one of the key figures in this plan of disengagement. If the Emperor only listened to him, then the people he sent out would be useless as well. Wouldn't that mean that he had been doing useless things for the past few days?

”Ke ke, don't be anxious. Listen to what I have to say. It is likely that the internal department of the imperial family has become a mess after receiving this information.” Helian said slowly. He had already come up with a plan in his heart. When he saw Zi Yuan's puzzled expression, he continued speaking.

Within the imperial palace, there are still some people who survived from the former Emperor Xi Li's side. That Murong Xiu may have been the Regent, but he was the one who carefully climbed up there. If his power was sufficient, then the current Xi Li might have changed hands, but that's not the case.

”Who could it be? Who would have the ability to do so?” Zi Yuan asked curiously. From the fights he had with Murong Xiu, he knew that Murong Xiu was a difficult opponent. He hadn't thought that Xi Li would have someone on par with Murong Xiu.

”Move left! Prime Minister Xi Li. ” Helian said this name slowly, word by word. It was obvious that Helian knew about the move to the left. He also knew about the fight between Mu Rong Xiu and Zuo Qing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have approved of Zi Yuan's plan to break off from him that day.

”Oh? So that was how it was. Then Zuo Qian would naturally move to Murong Xiu as soon as he received the message? ”Then wouldn't we …” Before Zi Yuan could finish his words, he was interrupted by Helian Lie.
