"This king does not want to wait any longer. Before this king had secretly analyzed the current situation with the Prime Minister Wang Yi, and now, the military strength of the five counties around the imperial capital of the Southern Yue is in my hands. As long as I hear the order, the imperial capital will be in my hands." For Duan Mu Yan, he had decided to carry out his plan ahead of schedule. Only by becoming the overlord of a country would he have sufficient ability to protect his beloved woman. Shen Han Sheng thought in his heart.
"There is a saying that being anxious for success is actually a bad thing, that Shen Han Xin and Xia Hou Bo are not easy to deal with, furthermore, I heard that the Emperor has bestowed Xia Hou Yu Ying to Shen Han Xin, it seems that Xia Hou Bo wants to ally with Shen Han Xin, if that's the case, are you sure you can secure your position after obtaining the throne?" Shangguan Wuye disagreed, his beautiful peach blossom eyes shining brightly. He did not agree with Shen Hansheng's idea.
"Right now, the situation is like a boat in a river in reverse. If you don't advance, you retreat. It is precisely because of Xia Hou Bo's actions that This King can no longer sit still and watch the changes. If I don't act now, I'm afraid that I'll get into too much trouble!" Shen Hansheng spoke in a solemn tone, even though his explanation was extremely far-fetched.
It seems that you have already made up your mind that nothing I say will change your mind, but don't blame me for not reminding you, if you can't eliminate Xia Hou Bo's and Shen Han Xin's forces in one fell swoop, and let them escape from the Imperial City in the middle of it and take root in the borders, it is very likely that the Southern Yue will face a prolonged confrontation. Shangguan Wuye no longer tried to dissuade him.
"Before I make my move, I will definitely eliminate 'Blood Swallow' and 'Hawk Dog' first. During this time, even if Xia Hou Bo and Shen Han Xin have wings, they will not be able to escape the Imperial Capital." Shen Hansheng returned to the main topic at hand.
"What do you want me to do?" Shangguan Wuye had expected Shen Hansheng would not let him live a carefree life, and said bitterly.
"Lend the seven Holy Maiden to Ben Wang." Shangguan Wuye's thin lips curled up as his index finger traced a line across his almost perfect jaw. After thinking for a moment, he lifted his eyes to look at Shen Hansheng.
"Sure! It's just that you have to ensure their safety. " Shangguan Wuye answered solemnly. Now that he was going to fight with the Blood Goose and the Hawk Dog, he had no choice but to think for their safety.
"You have no confidence in Peony and the others?" This was the first time Shen Hansheng had seen Shangguan Wuye's solemn expression, and he could not help but ask.
"I have no confidence in you …" Shangguan Wuye sighed as he stroked his forehead, but Shen Hansheng's face was full of black lines. Shangguan Wuye was indeed efficient. Early the next morning, the seven saints of the Moonflower Palace were already standing in the main hall.
"Peony greets the Duke of Han …" Her gentle voice was graceful, and her clear eyes were calm and collected. As the Great Sage's daughter, Peony was naturally the leader among the seven. His ultimate technique was the Bewitching Art, and he had not lost it yet.
"Greetings, Duke Han!" The melodious voice seemed to come from a thousand miles away. In the next second, the Second Saintess of the Moon Glow Palace, Peony, was standing firmly by Peony's side. Her delicate and beautiful face was as white as jade.
"Second sister must show off her skills to the Duke of Han. That Cui Yu is trying her luck too …" Cui Yu greets Duke Han. " The girl dressed in yellow slightly bowed. When Shen Hansheng raised his sleeve to signal for her to get up, his purple sleeve was suddenly nailed to the table. When Cui Yu made her move, he did not even notice.
"Yanzhi pays her respects to you, Duke of Han." The Four Holy Maiden Yanzhi bowed and stood by Cui Yu's side. Her eyes flashed, she had clearly used her ultimate move, the Shadowless Needle. How could this be called a little test?
"Greetings, King Han!" Compared to the other Holy Maiden, the dress worn by the Five Holy Maiden could be described as revealing. The beautiful long green robe had a huge opening, and one could clearly see her beautiful neck and alluring collarbone following the curve of her chest, the skirt reaching all the way down to her knees. If she took two more steps forward, it was as if she was wearing a flower petal around her waist. Shen Hansheng couldn't help but scratch his head. How many retainers would die from a nosebleed if they were dressed like this?
"Cai Die greets Duke Han!" A bell-like voice suddenly rang out, and after Cai Die casually bent over, she fiercely stretched, then her expression immediately changed.
"Young Master Shen, if you have anything to say in the future, just say it earlier. It has been tough on me and my sisters. Why haven't you arranged for us to eat? We can go rest now!" Cai Die's words caused the other six Holy Maiden to change from their respectful expressions, and they all found a spot to rub their backs with faces full of resentment. Even the elegant Great Sage Peony could not help but complain.
"Young Master Shen's words don't matter. We sisters were so tired that we almost broke our legs!" Seeing this, the corners of Shen Hansheng's lips twitched as he placed a hand on his forehead. This was the true quality of the Holy Maiden of the Moon Flower Hall! What dignified and elegant, elegant and refined, a good candidate for marriage, all of this was fake! Rumors had it that people were killed …
"That... Bing'er immediately told the kitchen to prepare some food for the Holy Maiden. After that, she brought everyone to the rooms in the backyard to rest. " Shen Hansheng knew that he couldn't afford to offend such a grandaunt, so he immediately instructed.
"How can we find a woman to serve us? We can't bear to bully her, so how about Young Master Shen give us another man?" The Fifth Saintess' charming phoenix cherry lips curled up, her smile was extremely vulgar.
"Cough, cough …" Ye Li... "During this period of time, you will be in charge of the food and accommodation of the seven Holy Maiden. Don't neglect the Holy Maiden." Suddenly, Shen Hansheng's face turned extremely ugly, as though he had suffered a great internal injury.
"Also, please don't call us Holy Maiden, Young Master Shen. It's unpleasant, just call us Miss …" Cai Die said with dissatisfaction. When he raised his eyes again, there was no trace of Shen Hansheng in the main hall!
"Saints …." "Ladies, please wait for a moment. Ye Li will instruct the kitchen to prepare a meal for you!" Ye Li respectfully spoke, and as he turned around, he was stopped by Yu Feng.
"This little brother is quite handsome …" The delicate phoenix walked with graceful steps to Ye Li's side. Its jade-like fingers slowly hooked up to Ye Li's lower jaw. Ye Li had never experienced such a woman's kindness before. Thus, he immediately retreated a few steps, causing several holy girls to burst out laughing.
"Fifth Sister, you seem to have regressed in your charm. Look at her, she's not even blushing!" Cai Die jokingly said, but with her words, Ye Li felt his cheeks turn hot, and he could not help but choke.
"What do you know? This is called being reserved, but there's still a lot of time in the future. Little brother, Jiao Feng will accompany you to the kitchen. Those girls are still around. You won't be able to deal with them without me …" As he spoke, his entire body suddenly leaned against Ye Li. Ye Li didn't even have the time to retreat before his hands tightly wrapped around his waist.
"I'm exhausted from the journey, so I'll help you carry Jiao Feng. Oh right, which direction is the kitchen?" As Yu Feng spoke, he dragged Ye Li out of the main hall. By his side, Leng Bing Xin saw all of this and felt an inexplicable sense of pressure in his heart.
"It's rare for Fifth Sister to take the initiative to tease me. It looks like Ye Li is fortunate …" The corner of his mouth unconsciously curled up as he glanced at Leng Bing Xin, who was standing there dumbly.
Mu King's Manor.
Duan Mu Yan paced around the backyard, looking at the sea of flowers before her eyes. Her heart felt at ease, as if she hadn't slept the entire night in order to think of something. However, no matter how hard she tried, her mind was still blank.
"This lady looks unfamiliar. Is she new here?" When she heard his voice, she turned her head and saw an extremely handsome face in front of her. If she were to wear light green clothes on another man's body, she would definitely find him out of the ordinary.
"I am Meng Yan. I just entered the mansion the day before yesterday." Even though the man in front of her was extremely beautiful, Duan Mu Yan could vaguely feel that this person had an extraordinary, sinister aura on his body. Thus, she subconsciously retreated a few steps, maintaining a certain distance between them.
"Meng Yan? Good name! "I'm in a dangerous situation." The person in front of him was no other than the person who had just thrown Yin Shang Liang onto the bed. Even though they had only just experienced the pleasures of life, the moment they saw Duan Moyan, the desire in their hearts was immediately ignited.
"Crisis? It's a very special name, and it sounds a bit sad. " Duan Moyan nodded her head slightly as she turned her gaze onto the sea of flowers before her. The light in her eyes was as illusory as the moonlight. Ye Zichen's heart shook. This was the first time someone told him his name was a bit sad. He thought that there wouldn't be anyone in this world who would understand the pain in his heart, but the girl in front of him was able to see through it.
"Forgive me for my ignorance, but may I ask how Miss judges my name to be a little sad?" She looked at Duan Mu Yan in anticipation as she questioned him suspiciously.
"You can only understand and not say anything. Young master can only say whatever you like about Meng Yan." Meng Yan still has things to do, so I'll leave this place to Young Master! " Duan Mu Yan did not like the fact that the man in front of her got too close to her. Thus, she turned around and wanted to leave, but in the next second, her wrist was suddenly pulled back by the man in front of her.
"Young master …" Before Duan Mu Yan could say anything, an ice-cold voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
"Young master is in a good mood, but Miss Meng Yan is my esteemed guest." He didn't say much, just that one sentence was enough to make Ye Xiao reluctantly let go.
"Greetings, prince!" Seeing that it was Shen Hanxin, his thin lips curled into a smile as he spoke humbly with no trace of unwillingness in his eyes. After all, he had already obtained what he wanted. As a person, one should not be insatiable.
"Young master, please do not. This king has matters to discuss with Lady Meng Yan. Young master can do as you please." Shen Hanxin turned to look at Duan Mu Yan as he spoke, before reaching out a hand to pull her away unprepared Duan Mu Yan. The slightest movement revealed Duan Mu Yan's position. From the looks of things, this woman should be Shen Han Xin's final love. His actions were just a warning to her! He smiled bitterly in the face of danger. This was the first time he didn't have any distracting thoughts to get close to a woman, yet he was misunderstood to be like this. He didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.
After leaving the backyard, Duan Muyan pulled her finger away and looked at Shen Hanxin.
"I wonder what business does Your Highness have with Meng Yan?" Seeing the serious expression on Duan Mu Yan's face, Shen Han Xin couldn't help but shake her head.
"Can't you see that This King was just helping you out?" Upon hearing these words, the corners of Duan Moyan's lips curled up as she bent down to pay her respects.
"Thank you, your highness." Right now, Meng Yan was like an iceberg, even though Shen Hansheng's passionate and fiery confession was just like Shen Hansheng's, she was still unmoved. Was this her true nature, or was this everything she had hidden to hide the emptiness in her heart?
