The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 173 Your 5th Sister-in-law

"Your Majesty, Simon and Beiqi both have evil intentions. Are you sure we want to cooperate with them? You can see that the places they just drew on the map are all the fortresses of our Great Chu. If we give them away, we will be drowned in the saliva of the people of Great Chu."

King Cheng's counselor, his face is covered with a silver mask, no one has ever seen his true appearance. He has been with King Cheng for more than ten years and is known as Mr. Henian.

He looked at King Cheng with a complicated expression. This kind of thing that was cursed by the people would definitely be infamous for thousands of years. This King Cheng...

“But I don’t want to wait any longer. I finally killed Chu Chenyu, but ended up waiting for that wolf boy Chu Chenfeng. Where’s Chu Chenfeng? The throne was within my reach, the throne I had been dreaming of for so many years, but he gave it to a young boy so easily. Sir, I really can’t bear it.” King Cheng’s eyes were bloodshot, and his originally gentle and handsome face now showed only viciousness.

"But even if the prince ascends the throne, Simon and Northern Qi will definitely be two disasters in the future."

"We'll worry about the future later. Right now, I just don't want Chu Chenfeng to be free anymore. Isn't he the war god of Great Chu? I want to see how this undefeated war god can handle Simon and Northern Qi's joint attack on Great Chu?"

Mr. Henian shook his head. In the past, he was willing to follow King Cheng because he was a wise king praised by everyone and he wanted to assist him. But now, he was getting more and more impatient. How could such a person possibly compete for the throne? Alas, it seemed that he had made the wrong choice.

But Mr. Henian's eyes were sinister, so what? His first choice back then was Chu Chenfeng, but that man was unruly and self-willed. He said that he was not upright and did not want to use him at all. Even his face was ruined because of that man. He hated it, so he switched to the Chengwang camp, and on the other hand, it was also for revenge.

"Sir, let's go back to Jiangnan now. After we have made all the necessary preparations, we should start."

"Yes, listen to the prince."

On the other side, after Duanmu Huo and Situ Yue left, they turned a few streets and entered a hidden courtyard.

Duanmu Huo looked arrogant. He didn't seem to care about a foreign prince. After all, his father was the first general of Simon and had controlled the government for more than ten years. The current emperor was just a puppet. If we really talk about status, Duanmu Huo is the eldest son of General Simon. If Duanmu Qing ascends the throne, he will be the crown prince. Humph, why are you afraid of a little third prince like him?

Situ Yue was a man of deep thoughts. He saw Duanmu Huo's disdain and showed no reaction on his face, but he had already held a grudge against him in his heart. He really thought that his Duanmu family was a royal family, but he was just a thief who stole the country.

"Young General, please take this letter to General Duanmu. Please also convey that Situ Yue is looking forward to cooperating with the general."

Duanmu Huo stared at the letter in his hand for a while, and finally took it. "The Third Prince's sincerity will also be conveyed to my father. As long as the Third Prince can successfully ascend to the position of the Crown Prince of Northern Qi, the cooperation will definitely go smoothly. Third Prince, you still have to work hard."

The viciousness in Situ Yue's eyes flashed away, and a gentle smile appeared on his face, "Yes, Situ Yue will definitely not let the general down."

Duanmu Huo waved his hands, a little impatiently, "Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

His beauty was still waiting for him in the house, and he didn't want to waste time on this useless conversation.

After the people left, Situ Yue looked unhappy, and kicked a guard behind him to vent his anger. The guard fell several meters away, not daring to say a word, and slowly stood up and stood behind him again.

"A traitor who stole the country dares to show his displeasure to me. Ha, they are ultimately a bunch of people who are not worthy of being on the stage. Let's go. I have to hurry back to Northern Qi as soon as possible to avoid my father's suspicion."

"Yes, my lord, everything has been arranged. You can leave at any time."

"Have you erased all traces of us?"

"I have checked it myself, and there is absolutely no trace left."

Situ Yue was also a very careful person, otherwise he would not have had so many supporters in the Northern Qi court. His ability was quite good. It was a pity that he was born into the wrong womb, not into the womb of the former empress of Northern Qi.

The second and third rows hiding in the dark looked at each other and followed carefully.

The master wants to capture this man alive, and if anything unexpected happens, he will be killed.

However, the third prince of Northern Qi is quite courageous. He doesn't seem to have many guards around him, but he dares to come to Da Chu like this. Is he too confident or does he really think that he has no one in Da Chu?

Situ Yue was indeed confident, so he thought that the news of this three-party meeting would never leak out, so he came here in person and kept a low profile. Of course, he was not completely unprepared, and among his guards, there was also a top swordsman.

I'm afraid that the second and third trips will return empty-handed.

Li Mulan had just finished her meal with Zhang and was talking to Zhang Yi. Suddenly, a man in black fell from the sky. Huo Yuanruo, who was eating cakes with Li Xi, immediately jumped up and attacked the man in black.

As a result, he was kicked away by the other party before he even touched the corner of his clothes. The other party complained impatiently, "Go away, don't block me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Li Mulan was taken away by the collar before she could react.

Li Xi's eyes widened as he hurriedly stood up to chase after him, but Huo Yuanruo, who had gotten up, grabbed his arm. He patted the dust off his body and said, "Don't chase after him. That's my master. You can't catch up with him."

Zhang Yi looked at the person who suddenly disappeared, seemingly not affected at all. He packed up the pile of account books and documents on the table and took them away directly.

Li Xi was stunned. "Then sister..."

Huo Yuanruo looked at the direction where the two people disappeared, probably going to his Sixth Uncle, then he comforted Li Xi with a few words and flew away.

Li Xi looked at the empty courtyard, where he was the only one left. He felt a little lonely. It was quite lively just now...

Li Mulan was almost suffocated by her clothes. After she was finally able to breathe some fresh air, she was pushed into a room by Situ Tianming.

Li Mulan was annoyed, "Fifth Brother, you are going too far. Is there anyone like you? You almost strangled me to death."

Situ Tianming looked impatient, "Stop talking nonsense and go save people."

Only then did Li Mulan notice the situation in the house. Lin Yunfan and Xuan Ming were there too, and Xuan Ming was taking the pulse of an unconscious woman.

Li Mulan glared at Situ Tianming and went forward to check.

A beautiful woman was lying on the bed. Although her face was pale, it did not detract from her elegance and beauty. At this moment, she was unconscious, with a short arrow stuck in her chest and her lips were black. It was obvious that she was poisoned.

"Who is this person?"

"Your fifth sister-in-law!"

Li Mulan looked at Situ Tianming as if she had seen a ghost, "Fifth Senior Brother, when did you get married?"
