Chapter 872 Who Helped Whom? (4)
Tang Mo raised his lips with a smile, "You don't need to thank me, just remember to invite me to a wedding wine, Brother Huang."

Tang Xin stood far away, although he couldn't hear what they said, but when he saw Tang Yan's eyes were wrong, and then looked at the smile on Tang Mo's face, he immediately understood.

There was a condensed cold light in his eyes, and he clenched his fists tightly, wishing to do something.

But what can he do?
A traitor beside him was dying, his hamstring was pulled, and he was lying on the ground, holding his leg and howling.

Tang Xin pulled out the sword suddenly and swung it hard. Now the sword is much sharper.

Slashing down with a sword, the man's leg was cut off at the base of the leg.

"Ah!"

The shocked eyeballs of that person were about to roll out, screaming and looking helplessly at his broken leg.

Blood and pain followed.He was in so much pain that he had nowhere to hide, and there was nothing he could do, and the remaining half of his body was about to be surrounded by blood.

When he saw Tang Xin's sword hanging down and dripping blood, he sent his own neck up without thinking about it.

Rather than living in pain, life is better than death, and it is better to settle everything and die cleanly.

When a person dies, the pain disappears. This is anatomy, not cowardice.

Tang Xin stared blankly at the corpse at his feet, expressionless, and no longer afraid, as if looking at an insignificant thing.

He had changed too much. After Tang Yan noticed it, he had a bad feeling in his heart.To him, Tang Xin's change was good or bad.

Sikong Jin was taken away, and Prince Xiang's mansion was in a mess.

Caiyun and Liu Chen had to be mentally prepared beforehand, Zhou Dahan and Yan Zhong escorted them to the old house, Helian Mingde and Mr. Mu were also sent there at the same time.

Over there, as early as a few days ago, He Liancheng ordered someone to clean it up.

Only a few people were left in Prince Xiang's mansion to clean up the mess, and everyone else moved there temporarily.

He Liancheng was sitting in the carriage with a gloomy expression, apparently he hadn't gotten over his previous anger.

Mu Xiang rested her chin and looked at him steadily.He didn't speak, and she didn't speak, just watched like this.

Probably because her eyes were too focused and fiery.Young Master Helian finally turned his head to meet her gaze.

"Are you tired?" He said, reaching out to wrap his arms around her waist, trying to pull her into his arms.Although the voice is soft, the expression is still condensed.

Mu Xiang followed his hand, but instead of lying in his arms, she lay on his knees, looking at the swaying car curtain, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm not tired, I'm afraid you are tired." Now, what happened in Qiankun Palace today, are you very angry, are you disappointed with the emperor, disappointed with the court?"

He Liancheng gently touched her cheek with his fingers, his movements were gentle, and his eyes softened a little because of this warm movement, "It's not enough to be disappointed. I never did this for the emperor."

Although it was past noon at this time, there were still many pedestrians on the street.

Coming and going, hustle and bustle, hawking, talking, frolic, and chasing, these seemingly ordinary sounds constituted the stability and prosperity of the Southern Jin Dynasty.

If they are defeated today, Cang Lan will unite with the Yan State to attack the Southern Jin Dynasty aggressively.

What will it be like then.

The people were displaced, panicked, hungry, sleepless, and worried that the enemy would attack at any time.

The farmland is trampled, and the people have no intention to grow food, which will inevitably lead to a skyrocketing price of food.

The most direct consequence is that the people have no money to buy food, which leads to riots and turmoil.

Thieves and bandits are rampant, and fish and meat are in the city.

Such a scene is scary even thinking about it.

Mu Xiang rubbed her cheek on He Liancheng's knee, leaning her body weight up a bit, "Since we don't want to be angry for him, we don't have to be angry for him, it's okay, the Tang emperor is old, and the new emperor is the most important thing , I think Tang Mo's city is no less than that of Emperor Tang, and he has practiced among the people for many years before, so I hope he will not forget his roots."

She took a breath and continued: "He is the most suitable candidate for the crown prince, and he has not married a concubine. Once a concubine is established, he may be the future empress in the future. Empress Dou died, and Tang Hao also died. His path to succession is easier and more convenient, and there is not much trouble in managing the harem, it seems that Emperor Tang really values ​​him."

"Hmph, he is scheming, we thought of it, he thought of it early in the morning, and unintentionally, you also helped him a lot. It turned out that he also planned to start with Mu Kun and abolish the queen, but he didn't expect that you and Mu Kun's grievances are so deep, he did this one step before him, and the next thing is just to push the boat along the way," He Liancheng said while lowering his hand and rubbing her waist.

The man's palm was thick and warm, and it made her feel comfortable when he rubbed it.

Last night, she had a backache and couldn't sleep well because of tossing and turning. He Liancheng didn't sleep all night. Whenever she turned over, he would rub her waist with warm palms. Sometimes her calves had cramps, so she had to massage them too.

After rubbing it several times, he didn't sleep much at night, but he was in good spirits.

"Master, I expected what you said, but I have to do it. We have become Tang Huang's wayfinding stones now, but can you tell me that today we are all down, will Tang Huang accept it?" Your military power?"

"No," He Liancheng replied with certainty.

"Why?" She always had doubts about this question.

"Because... he can't take it back," he replied ambiguously.

Mu Xiang pouted, unhappy, "You want to hide it from me, can't you tell me?"

When He Liancheng heard that her voice was wrong, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.He lowered his head and kissed his wife on the cheek.

A kiss on the surface of the water, the touch is so light and light, but it is like a brand, engraved in Mu Xiang's heart.

"What are you thinking? I don't say it. I'm afraid you will think too much. Back then, Emperor Taizu abolished the old emperor and ascended to the throne with the support of the ancestors of the Helian family. The reason for the collapse of the old dynasty was the autocratic imperial power. After ascending the throne, a secret call was issued, and more than half of the military power was handed over to the Helian clan. At the same time, my Taizu made a blood oath to assist the emperor from generation to generation. It is hidden in the imperial mausoleum, even the Emperor Tang has never seen it before."

Mu Xiang was speechless, there is such a thing.

Mutual supervision and mutual restraint.

No wonder Tang Huang's attitude towards He Liancheng was always neither far nor near, neither good nor bad, so he held the handle in his hands.

And I heard that people in the Southern Jin Dynasty are very concerned about blood oaths.

The method of making a blood oath is also very cruel. If you don't die, you will lose half of your life.

Therefore, people in the Southern Jin Dynasty would not easily make a blood oath, and once they made it, they would not go back on it.

He Liancheng pulled her up and rubbed her lips with his fingertips, "Many years have passed, and even the blood oath has come to an end. Emperor Tang is about to run out of fuel, and he will abide by the blood oath, but Tang Mo ...Not necessarily, so before he breaks the blood oath, I will find a way to make him give up!"

The blood oath made hundreds of years ago is too far away for today's people.

Tang Mo was young, so he might not believe this, just in case, He Liancheng had to choose another path.

Mu Xiangpa pulled his hand away, and lay down weakly.The carriage is covered with soft cushions and brand new bedding.

He Liancheng saw that her expression was wrong, and the unhappiness in his heart just now was thrown into the sky and disappeared without a trace.

He lowered his body, leaned against her, and pulled the quilt to cover her, "I don't like to hear this, so why not talk about it? Let them do the border affairs, I will only accompany you to raise the baby!"

"Did Tang Huang intend to let Tang Mo go to the border to practice?" Mu Xiang arched into her arms, adjusting a comfortable posture.

"You're smart," He Liancheng chuckled, "When we walked out of the Qiankun Palace, the emperor didn't express his opinion, so I understood what he meant. Forget it, if he wants to go, let him go. It’s not that easy to deal with.”

"That's right, he won't run into a wall, and he definitely won't give up. The people you trained, I believe they know how to measure. If the emperor doesn't call you for an audience these few days, you just stay in the house and go for a walk with me. The air on the mountain must be It's very refreshing. When we came last time, there were many wild peach trees in the back mountain, and they must have bloomed. Also, prepare some paper money, and we will burn incense for your mother." When it came to going to the grave, she was still a little nervous , afraid that He Liancheng would be unhappy.

He Liancheng's eyes flickered, and finally nodded, "Okay, tomorrow morning, I will accompany you up the mountain."

"Well, that's right," Mu Xiang stood up, reached for his lips, and kissed him forcefully, then lay back down, sleepiness hit her, coupled with the rickety carriage, she soon fell asleep.

He Liancheng looked at her sleeping face with warm tenderness in his eyes.

Because of the fear of bumps on the road, the carriage moved very slowly, shaking for half an hour before arriving at the old house.

Helian Mingde and Mr. Mu were waiting at the door because they were worried about their safety.

Finally saw the carriage coming back, and was about to go up to ask.

He Liancheng jumped out of the car first, then turned back, picked up the sleeping Mu Xiang, but did not move.

Yingsha and Yan Zhong rushed forward together, seeing He Liancheng holding his master still, and seeing the uncovered things on his master, he immediately understood.

Quickly got into the carriage, took out the brocade quilt, and put it on the master, before He Liancheng stepped up the steps.

"This is... asleep?" Helian Mingde had already tried his best to lower his loud voice so as not to disturb her.

But Mu Xiang was still attracted, and moved restlessly.

He Liancheng gave the old man a look, left the two old men behind, and went straight into the old house, to the place where the two of them lived.

The old house is located on a high ground, and He Liancheng specially chose a place where he could have a far-sighted view of the colorful buildings.

After turning a few corridors, you can see the wide steps, all of which are covered with thick blankets, even if you fall, you will not feel pain.
