Nalan Rongxuan's eyes drooped slightly, covering all his emotions. His voice was still indifferent as before: "master, I promised you to take care of Su Lan, so I will naturally take care of her. As for the other people, does master feel that I am someone who has lost his mind?"
The old man squinted his eyes and looked at Nalan Rongxuan, his expression was ever so calm, as though he would never be able to understand his thoughts, the anger in his heart seemed to have disappeared a little, and he said: "It's best if that's the case, what exactly happened to the woman?"
"She's a disciple of the Godly Doctor, so she knows everything about me. It's quite convenient for her to take care of me, but I'm afraid that the master won't be able to see her again. She has already left to go to the North Qi to work for me."
There was no emotion in Nalan Rongxuan's voice, the old man's expression relaxed, if it was really Nalan Rongxuan's woman who was pampering him, how could he let him do such a dangerous thing? It seemed like he had made a fuss out of nothing.
Nalan Rongxuan thought for a moment, then said, "master knows that my body is special, so I cannot stay by your side often. It would be difficult to have such a convenient doctor by my side."
The old man laughed: "I got it, aren't you afraid that master would kill me in a fit of rage? Just look at the Godly Doctor's old face, I have given her some face. I know you have a cold personality, but as a girl, you should at least act coquettishly. "
"master is right." Nalan Rongxuan indifferently agreed.
The old man stood up with a gentle smile on his face, "It's good that you know it. I will go and take a look at Su Ran."
Nalan Rongxuan respectfully lowered his head, his eyes that were deep as a lake faintly flickering.
After a long while, Nalan Rongxuan finally turned around and said indifferently: "Ghost woman! From today onwards, you will be in charge of protecting Luoxue. "
The Ghost Witch appeared from the shadows and asked in surprise, "Master, could it be that you don't believe the old master?"
Nalan Rongxuan's expression did not change. "I just don't want what happened last night to happen again."
Ghost granny's old eyes moved, and quickly disappeared from the door. Nalan Rongxuan looked in the direction of the door, and without him knowing, his hands had begun to tighten, a profound and complicated look in his eyes.
The battle was extremely tense. Just as Tuoba Hong returned to the big tent, he felt a trace of a different aura inside. He could not help but clench his fist, and coldly asked: "Who?"
"Not bad, your vigilance is so strong." Yue Luoxue walked out from the shadows.
Tuoba Hong was overjoyed. He thought that she would not come back so easily after going to the Profound Star Country. "Luoxue? It's really you! "
"Of course it's me. I haven't helped you seize the North Qi yet, how could I escape before the battle?" Yue Luoxue laughed, "But you are pretty fast, half of the North Qi is yours?"
Tuoba Hong smiled slightly, with a hint of joy and love in his brown eyes: "Then it's all thanks to you helping out, your people and weapons have been really useful."
Yue Luoxue complacently raised her brows: "It worked, I admit it, but the main thing is that you're strong yourself, if not it wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Tuoba Hong sighed, "I suspect that there is a traitor within the army. There has been information leaked out recently."
Yue Luoxue nodded her head, thinking back to the thing that Liu Chengfeng had that could bewitch people's hearts, the people beside Tuoba Hong, needed to find a chance to properly inspect it.
It was just that she did not expect that the opportunity would come so quickly. The North Qi Imperial Family had suddenly gathered a large army to suppress the Battle-King rebel army, and at the same time, the Sunscorch Kingdom sent troops to the borders, which happened to be part of the Battle King's territory.
At this moment, Tuoba Hong was being attacked from the back. If he was not careful, he might not be able to recover at all times, so he gathered all his soldiers to discuss on how to deal with the situation.
"Your Royal Highness, the person beside you is?"
Some people noticed that the man beside Tuoba Hong was not even twenty years old, and was not considered tall. His face was dark, and his cheeks were flushed, but his overall appearance was still a bit elegant.
Tuoba Hong laughed: "This is Mr. Luo Feng, the advisor I invited."
Actually, this person was Luoxue. It was not convenient for her to appear as her real body right now, so she changed her appearance to that of a man.
"A strategist? Your Highness, this … "Is that reliable?" More than one of them held a doubtful attitude, looking at Yue Luoxue from head to toe.
Yue Luoxue laughed without a care: "Whether it's reliable or not, everyone just needs to wait and see."
Seeing Yue Luoxue's confident look, one of the generals was the first to speak. "I wonder what clever plan Mr. Yue Luoxue has to resolve this crisis?"
Yue Luoxue's expression did not change.
"Humph, who doesn't know? If Mr Luo Feng only knows this one sentence, he would have let us down too much!" Another person answered.
However, Yue Luoxue walked to the sand table in front of him and pointed to the pattern on it. "Regarding the army south of the imperial family, I suggest that we set up a main checkpoint here, and a secondary checkpoint here and here respectively …"
"Nonsense, if we were to set up a card in the Steel Wood Pass, how much land would we lose?!" "This was the blood of the soldiers!" A general said excitedly, and everyone else followed suit.
Retreating to the Steel Wood Pass was equivalent to giving up a thousand miles of territory. These territories had been taken down step by step, so naturally, they wouldn't be willing to give up just like that.
Yue Luoxue pointed to the sand map on the table and said, "North of the Ironwood Mountain Pass, we still have three important cities, but these three cities are relatively scattered, the surrounding area is flat, and is not easy to defend against. The Ironwood Forest is different, there is the White River on the left and the Falling Dark Mountain on the right.
"Why do you need to keep fighting? Just kill them directly!" Another rough voice sounded.
Yue Luoxue met her gaze: "General, have you forgotten about the incident with Yan Yang Army?"
Everyone was startled. The Sunscorch Kingdom army was pressing down on the land, so they had to choose one to deal with first. From what this Mr. Luo Feng was saying, they had to choose the Scorching Sun army first.
"I agree with what Mr. Luo Feng said. If the Duke were to send out troops to fight against the great army of Sunscorch Kingdom, then the people's hearts will have won by another step!" The general who spoke was one of Tuoba Hong's most important trusted aides, named He Meng.
The others pondered for a moment. As the saying goes, 'leaving mountains behind, there is nothing to be afraid of.' However, there were also people who were worried. "But what if we fall into the quagmire of fighting with Yan Yang?"
Yue Luoxue laughed: "Everyone, don't worry, there will naturally be people who will restrict the strength of our Sunscorch Kingdom!"
Nalan Rongxuan and Tuoba Hong's cooperation was not as simple as just her helping out. Yue Luoxue also believed that they would definitely be reminded of today's situation.
As expected, Tuoba Hong opened his mouth and said, "He Meng will lead his troops to guard the Ironwood Mountain Pass. This king will personally take care of the Scorching Sun Army and head north in one month!"
Yue Luoxue did not participate in battle arrangements much. She only reminded General He Meng to make more use of the Steel Wood Pass, the location of the three checkpoints in Qingzhou and Mang Tian, and also told him that there would be people gathering with him to assist him in defending the city.
"Tuoba Hong, there's a problem with these people." After everyone had left, Yue Luoxue gave Tuoba Hong a list.
Tuoba Hong's brown eyes flashed, but he did not say anything. He would naturally take care of the matter as it was not necessary for her to interfere.
As expected, Tuoba Hong then intercepted the information that the North Qi Army was planning for a night raid, and using this information, he caught a turtle in a jar and turned it around beautifully.
The soldiers' morale rose greatly, and they celebrated through the night. However, Yue Luoxue's expression was not very good, and the paper in her hand was held into a ball.
On the table in front of her, a dark green little bird was hopping around. This bird was called Bi Hen, and was even more precious than her snow falcon.
What was in Yue Luoxue's hands was the secret that Nalan Rongxuan had unearthed, the true purpose of the Grandpa Mo!
She had always thought that the Grandpa Mo only wanted to use Mo Shanghua, but never would she have thought that the Grandpa Mo actually wanted Mo Shanghua to obtain the inheritance and then use a different method to seize his body.
As for the consequences of seizing another's body, Mo Shanghua would age within a day, going from flower-like age to a drooping old woman, and she wouldn't even have three months to live!
Furthermore, according to the information she had received, Mo Shanghua had already completed her inheritance and was following the Grandpa Mo out of the Beleg tribe, heading south.
However, their whereabouts were also very secretive, as they had yet to find out where they were staying.
"Luoxue, what's wrong?" Tuoba Hong looked at Yue Luoxue who was sitting in front of the table, and her body faintly carried anger and sadness.
Yue Luoxue sighed, then handed the slip of paper over to Tuoba Hong: "Ah Hua has always treated Grandpa Mo as her closest kin, if she knew that Grandpa Mo had always been using her, how could she bear it."
Tuoba Hong quickly finished reading, and shock flashed past his eyes. However, after hearing what Yue Luoxue said, her expression became somewhat complicated, and after a moment of silence, she said in a low but firm voice: "Perhaps, she is willing to be used?"
Tuoba Hong's voice carried a hint of sadness, and it made Yue Luoxue's heart tremble as well. What she was doing right now, and what difference was there between her and the Grandpa Mo?
No, there was still a difference. That was, her use of Tuoba Hong had been put on the surface. He knew, he knew, but he still let her use it.
"Tuoba Hong..."
"Luoxue, you don't need to feel guilty at all. I only regret a little. Why didn't I meet you first? Tuoba Hong smiled a little desolately.
This was the first time Yue Luoxue realized that his deep facial features, coupled with such a smile, were actually so beautiful. Especially those pair of slightly sad eyes, which made him even more charming.
"Tuoba Hong, no matter what happens in the future, in my heart, we will always be friends." She couldn't guarantee anything else, only his heart.
Tuoba Hong gave a relieved smile, "I know that for a fight between men, the victor will be the loser and the loser will be the thief. If I win this fight, I naturally can also lose."
Yue Luoxue felt a lot more comfortable in her heart. Although Tuoba Hong looked rough on the outside, his thoughts were actually very meticulous.
"Tuoba Hong, I will follow you to the front lines." Yue Luoxue suddenly said.
"No way!" With an army of two hundred thousand Sunscorch Kingdom, if they really were to fight, then it would not be a joke.
Yue Luoxue seemed to know that he would definitely reject her, but she was not discouraged either. "Don't reject me so quickly, I'm not going to the battlefield.
Tuoba Hong was startled. "Luoxue, you suspect that the Grandpa Mo is …"
Yue Luoxue nodded her head. Grandpa Mo's performance had nothing to do with the North Qi Imperial Family, and he also had to think of all sorts of ways to get rid of Xiao Chen and the others. Thus, the most likely point was that the Grandpa Mo was related to Sunscorch Kingdom.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, she had to find Mo Shanghua as soon as possible and stay by her side for one more day, then she would be in even more danger!
Tuoba Hong also did not stop him, and nodded: "Alright!" He already knew that Luoxue was just like the eagles on their prairie, that no one would ever be able to tie her wings. She needed the sky, and he wanted to become her companion that could fly together with her!
