Chapter 118： Tyrant's favorite

After doing a good job with the two, Qin Mu let them retreat first, and he studied the layout of the troops in the royal study.

Su Li and Xu Jinyan went out to the Imperial Study Room.

Su Li’s face opened with a gentle smile and said: “I will be an official in the future, and I would like to ask Xu Gonggong to give more advice.”

"Don't dare not." Xu Jinyan made a fuss. "I don't understand the place in the future. I have to rely on it to mention more points."

Su Li’s face was filled with a smile, and the slightly lighter scorpion carefully looked at Xu Jinyan’s moment. The latter was not humble, and let the other side observe. At the end, Su Li regained his smile. “Xu Gonggong does not have to be self-respecting. You and I are now on an equal footing. We should support each other in the future and share the worry for the emperor."

"The trick is to teach." Xu Jinyan humbly returned.

Even if he is now in a high position, he has never shown an arrogant momentum.

Looking at such a young and gentle young man who is dripping, Su Li’s eyes flashed a bit of thought. At this critical time, Qin Mu suddenly set up the East Factory to support such a small **** with no background. Could he be aware of what? Thinking of this possibility, Su Li lowered his eyes and hid the dark and unclear look in his eyes.

Three days later, Qin Mu took a group of generals and officially went to meet with General Chen, who was far away from the customs.

Before leaving, Qin Mu let Su Li and Xu Jinyan temporarily handle the political affairs for him. If there is something important, he will fly the pigeons to him in time to let him decide. The two promised one by one. Qin Mu ordered people to come to three bowls of wine, three bowls each, Qin Mu said with a drink: "When you go this trip, the road is far away, the safety of this country, you will be handed over to you."

"Cheng Ding will not disappoint the emperor."

Su Li and Xu Jinyan have the same voice.

"it is good."

Qin Mu laughed and looked up and sipped the spirits in the bowl.

Just listening to the bang, the wine bowl was thrown on the ground, giving a crisp sound. Su Xu and the two have followed suit, regardless of the pungent spirit of the spirits, sipped into the belly, and then broke the bowl. Qin Mu reached out and wiped the wine stains on his mouth, and fixedly looked at Su Li, who was thin in his clothes, as if he was the only one in his eyes.

The wind blew, wrinkling the thin shirt on Su Li.

Untied the cloak of the body, Qin Mu stepped forward, put the cloak in the arrow of Su Li, and then the lips came to the ear of Su Li, said: "Wait for me to come back." The hot and warm breath sprayed on the ear of Su Li On the side, he bowed, and when he came back to God, Qin Mu had already turned over his horse and left without heading back.

For a moment, he really wanted to stop Qin Mu and let him not go to the battlefield to die.

But can't.

He is different from Qin Mu’s position. He has been crouching for many years. It is for today, and he must not let his country be exposed to the heat of life.

——

Qin Mu went to the camp where the battlefield was camped. After listening to General Chen’s report with other generals, he realized that the war was more dangerous than he had imagined. When Qin Mu was arrogant and attacked the country, he had already prepared for the revolt of the Lieutenant Congress. He was confident that he could destroy Li.

However, he miscalculated the strength of the country.

Over the years, he has successively eliminated other countries. It is not the case that there is no alliance with other countries. Only this country has never been able to join forces with other countries. Qin Mu consciously doubted that he had sent people to investigate the situation of Li Guo. He did not find any abnormality. Qin Mu only said that the king of Li Guojun did not know that the country would not attack them, but he did not want to see that Li Guo had been keeping a low profile. Their strength in the battle is far more than the original 300,000 troops.

It is a 600,000-strong army that has doubled.

Qin Mu advocated the use of force, and the strength of the national army was strong. Once the number of soldiers was expanded to more than one million, only a few successive battles, the original one million army has dropped to the current 500,000, if not intelligence Incorrect, Qin Mu will not fall into the dilemma of today.

With his military talent, Qin Mu took the 50-strong army firmly for three months, and neither side had a victory or defeat.

Qin Mu did not sleep, and even the night with his military divisions and generals to explore the enemy strategy, and finally decided to send people to burn the army of the Li Guo army, broke their back road, and then triumphantly took it all the way. But I don't want to, the other party seems to be very familiar with Qin Mu's routine. Before he moved the grain, Qin Mu's people rushed to the air, but the people of Li Guo also treated their people with their own way. Burning a small part of Qin Mu's grain, if Qin Mu is alert, the consequences are unimaginable.

In this way, the war has been in a stalemate.

Qin Mu has doubts. Through the analysis of the various arrangements of the Li country, he always feels that this kind of combat skill seems to have met before. If he is not sure that Yu Ye Yu is dead, he really wants to think that he is fighting against him. I am.

This war, the war between the army of the Laos and the army of Li Guo was a hot trend, and the territory of the country was also in crisis.

Xu Jinyan has been in charge of the East Factory since he took over the East Factory. He is also very good at attracting people's hearts. The East Factory is flourishing under his leadership, and its intricate network of relationships has spread all over the country. When he was still a small eunuch, he saved money and used the provincial silver literary priest to teach him to read the words. Later, he also had a good relationship with the **** who was in the Taifu Institute, so that he had a chance to Outside the hospital, he listened, and he took a lot of valuable knowledge.

Now he has become the general manager of the East Factory. He has not stopped. He handles his official duties during the day and watches the night and night at night. He is talented and hardworking. In just three months, he has benefited a lot. Although the Minister of the DPRK looked down on him privately, he still wanted to call him a big general manager.

The decision of Qin Mu to set up the East Factory was undoubtedly correct. It didn't take long for Xu Jinyan to find out a few spies of Li Guoan who were inserted in the palace. He did not speak out, personally interrogated the few spies, and learned from these spies that the original ministers of the DPRK and China had their own party. Of course, there were also a few spies who were more loyal to their country. Identify the party.

Xu Jinyan made a list, listed the names of the ministers in the smuggling mouth, and then deliberately let the people under the hand reveal the news, saying that they had already smashed the **** of the country and were about to interrogate them in order not to expose themselves. The identity of the DPRK is sure that some people will not be able to send people to destroy them.

Once the news flowed out, there were indeed a lot of people who came to see Xu Jinyan. They asked him what he had learned from the enemy’s spies. Some of them were on the list, and some people were unclear. In order to prevent those few spies from being poisoned, the food they eat must be tested with silver needles. Under the strict defense of Xu Jinyan, none of these prisoners died.

On this day, Su Li found Xu Jinyan and asked him if he had any new progress. Xu Jinyan shook his head and sighed: "This lively confession should be handed over to Dali Temple for investigation, but I was afraid of accidents and personally supervised. In the end, there is still a lack of experience."

Su Li Gongwei said: "When Xu Gonggong took office, he made such a great credit. When the emperor returns to the DPRK, he will have a reward."

Xu Jinyan humbly returned: "It is my blessing to be able to do things for the emperor."

Su Li said again: "I have a lot of friendship with Dali Siqing Wang Jun, and I have learned a lot from him. Can you let me go to meeting these prisoners?"

Xu Jinyan smiled and said: "Su Shi is willing to help, I naturally can't ask for it." He said: "Please ask."

After the two entered, Xu Jinyan listened to the side for a while. Su Li did have some means. In a few words, he would move those prisoners. Later, Xu Jinyan first withdrew according to the plan and gave the place to Su Li. He didn't know what Su Li had said in it. After that, Su Li came out and said to him with apology: "The wind is too tight, obviously it is specially trained, and I can't do anything about it."

Xu Jinyan in turn comforted: "It is good to have this heart."

Three days later, a prisoner smothered himself. The two seem to have nothing to do with each other, but out of intuition, Xu Jinyan thinks that Su Li is not simple. He wanted to further investigate the background of the life of Su Li, which coincided with the fact that many people in the private sector were provoked by words and wanted to uncover the uprising. Before Qin Mu’s expedition, he left 30,000 Yulin troops stationed in Laos. Now the people rioted. Some people took the opportunity to kill some people to blame the Yulin army. This further aroused the public anger. Hundreds of thousands of men volunteered to follow the uprising. The leader overthrew the political affairs.

Seeing that the situation is in jeopardy, the ministers of the DPRK are all anxious, and those with ulterior motives encourage them to roll up their belongings and leave the people. Only a few ministers who are just in the right place are sticking to their posts.

Xu Jinyan, who clearly sees the situation, has a clear heart. This is a big fear that he can’t keep it. Now there are two roads in front of him. One is to bring the family and the property to find a place to hide with the courtiers. One is far away. Going to the border to follow Qin Mu, and die with him.

He did not hesitate to choose the latter.

Despicable like him, he should have lived in a dark corner and sneaked into his life. It is Qin Mu who gave him the present glory. Qin Muzhi is the moon that is far away from him. Even if he can’t touch it, he wants to Staying side by side, watching.

He dismissed the **** of the East Factory, and wanted to take the grandmother of the Sun together, but when the Queen Mother was under house arrest, he could only give up, and when he packed up and prepared to go to the border, Su Licha came to visit and saw Xu Jinyan’s appearance. He knows and asks: "Is Xu Gonggong going to travel far?"

Originally, Xu Jinyan was only suspicious of Su Li. Now he is not anxious to see him. He has not been affected by the civil riots. Xu Jinyan has affirmed his own judgment. He did not say it, only smiled lightly. "Yes, I feel that the house is too stuffy and I want to go out and live for a while."

"It turned out to be like this." Su Li whispered: "Then I am here to congratulate Xu Gonggong."

Xu Jinyan nodded with a smile and pretended to be ignorant. He said: "Now this world is not peaceful, Su Shixiang has to plan for himself earlier."

"Thank you Xu Gonggong for mentioning it." Regardless of Xu Jinyan's words, there is a bit of truth. Su Li has to admit that he is a personal talent, if he can use it for him -

His eyes flashed, and before Xu Jinyan got on the carriage, he kept saying: "Xu Gonggong please be slow."

Xu Jinyan’s figure was slightly stunned and slowly turned around. “Is there something else in Su Shi?”

Su Liyi discretionally worded, and he said: "This road is not very flat, but Xu Gonggong really wants to stay, but he can still protect himself." Both of them are smart people, although the words are implicit, but some words do not have to say through.

I understand that the other person wants to recruit, and Xu Jinxiao smiles. There is a bit of room left in the words. "I have been in the palace for so many years, I have been careful to look at the people's eyes. I have never had a good look at the scenery outside. Now I have this opportunity, I still I want to visit some landscapes first."

"There are people who have their own interests." Su Li nodded and said: "If Xu Gonggong thinks about it, you can come back and see."

Xu Jin said: "Thank you Su Shi for being kind, remember to write down."

——

Su Li only went to Xu Jinyan to escape, but did not think that he went to the most dangerous place.

Ten days later, Xu Jinyan came to the military camp and did not see Qin Mu. Instead, he was arrested as a liguo. At this time, the situation was critical. A little bit of the pool would be completely annihilated. Qin Mu was busy with the public to discuss the strategy against the enemy. He did not have time to deal with other things. When he remembered the spies that he said, Xu Jinyan was beaten as soon as he was beaten.

Qin Mu did not expect that Xu Jinyan would come here. When he was shocked, his heart suddenly had a bad feeling.

Before falling into a coma, Xu Jinyan grabbed Qin Mu’s hand and only had time to say: “Su Li... He is a Li Guoren, he...rebelled.”

This news was poured into Qin Muer. He almost thought that he had an auditory hallucination. How could he betray him? Qin Mu instinctively wanted to deny, and immediately thought of a scene in which Daxie almost fell four months ago. At that time, he suspected Su Li, but Su Li was seriously injured. The picture of almost death was too impactful. He only looked at it. Worried about the safety of Su Li, he has long dispelled doubts in his heart. Now, if you want to come, people who have the opportunity to enter the study room and then pretend to be sacred, Su Li is very likely.

But the words that the doctor said are still in the ear, and the injury suffered by Su Li is really serious, especially the left leg, which is a lifelong disability. In order to gain his trust, Su Li did not hesitate to slap his hands, just to make his heart soft with the bitterness? If this is the case, then the city, the strategy and the courage of Su Li will not be achieved by ordinary people.

Thinking of this, Qin Mu is full of cold.

Xu Jinyan was in a coma for three days. When he woke up, Qin Mu’s first sentence was to ask him about his situation. Su Li had ordered the blockade news. Qin Mu did not know what happened to Daxie. Xu Jinyan said intermittently and told him what happened in those days.

After learning about the events, Qin Mu was silent for a long time.

He had a foresight, and the country’s jade was hidden by him. The silver of the state treasury was secretly moved to a safe place. There are these two things, plus the soldiers of the country, it is not difficult to restore the country.

However, now that the army of Li Guo is in a state of pressure, if he loses this time, even if he is smart again, he will turn over and hopeless.

Through the dark and dark expression on Qin Mu's face, Xu Jinyan can roughly guess their current situation. He silently said: "The emperor, the slaves are willing to coexist with the great man." As early as when he came to Qin Mu, he I am ready to die.

Qin Mu returned to the gods, quietly staring at Xu Jinyan for a long while, licking his lips and smiling: "No, there is a shackle, and the scorpion will not die." When talking about this sentence, Qin Mu’s eyes flashed with a certain color. Exudes the arrogance of a lion.

Perhaps knowing that he has fallen into desperation, there is no turning back. The soldiers of Laos have been thoroughly motivated by fighting spirit. On the battlefield, the Vietnam War and the more courageous, together with Qin Mu’s proper command, have reversed the original trend. Seeing that the army of Li Guo was defeated, the people who had been hiding behind the scenes and pointing to the mountains and rivers also showed up. It was actually the **** night-time feather.

The horror was only a moment, Qin Mu quickly set the god, sneer: "I was surprised that the coach of Li Guo has always refused to show up, it turned out to be you."

"Seeing that I am not dead, are you very disappointed?"

Yu Yeyu’s expression was cold, and there was no such thing as a fascination with Qin Mu. He walked away from the ghost gate. He thoroughly saw Qin Mu’s personality, a ruthless tyrant who had no choice but to succumb to such a person. And he used to be naive to think that he could get the heart of Qin Mu.

Fortunately, he is not too late to wake up.

His heart is different from ordinary people. Qin Mu's knife did not stab the key. After he was kicked off the cliff by Qin Mu, he just fell on the tree and was found by his men in time to return to his life. When Qin Mu raised his troops to attack the country, he was just raising his wounds. He could only hide with some soldiers and watched the country be destroyed. At that time he swears that Qin Mu must pay the price.

Later, the king of Li Guo took his military talent and personally persuaded him to return to Li Guo. In order to revenge, he did not hesitate to join Li Guo, and this had a confrontation with Qin Mu on the battlefield. He and Qin Mu have played a lot of battles, basically the tie, this time they have a large number of people, this should have won an overwhelming victory, did not expect Qin Mu firmly support the present.

"How disappointing it is." Qin Mu pulled his mouth and said, "Hey, just take this opportunity to defeat you and let you lose your heart and take it."

I did not expect this man to be so arrogant now.

In the eyes, I crossed a sharp and sturdy man, and stayed up late and said: "Try it, who is losing to who." After a pause, he said: "Qin Mu, this time, I will not let you." ”

Qin Mu listened to the words, snorted, and there was a deep disdain in his tone: "You can win without you."

After all, he raised his sword in his hand and yelled: "The soldiers, give me a punch!" His voice was like a bell, and everyone was in great spirits, and they raised their weapons in battle.

In this war, Qin Mu achieved a small victory.

Before Yukio Yu temporarily disarmed, he ridiculed: "Qin Mu, this embarrassment, whether you win or lose, you are a loser, you have lost the hearts of the people, even if you triumphantly return, you will not have your The place is up."

Qin Mu cold said: "Thank you for the concern of General Sui, and wait for Li to be destroyed. He is the only emperor of the whole world. The lost people's hearts will slowly recover."

I watched the night feathers, and laughed: "Wait, I will personally break your dreams."

This temporary victory allowed the generals to change their face before the decadence, all the spirits, and the desire for life and hope for the future.

Qin Mu returned to the camp, and Xu Jinyan had already made a delicious meal waiting for him. The food in the army is not as stressful as it is in the palace. It is only required to be able to eat and fight hard. Although Qin Mu is expensive as an emperor, everything is simple, and the use of food is no different from ordinary generals. After playing for three months here, the wind and the gravel will inevitably make Qin Mu’s face sorrowful, but his whole person is in good condition and has not been affected by the affairs in Datun.

Qin Mu smiled when he saw such a table. He smiled and asked: "Xiao Xuzi, you know in advance that you will win, so do you have a table to celebrate?"

Xu Jinyan was respectfully waiting to be on the side, with a trace of scar on his face. "The slaves saw the monotony of the barracks in the military camp, and they wanted to try to do something, and they didn't know and did not agree with the emperor's taste."

The dishes on the table were all loved by Qin Mu. Although there are few ingredients available here, he can see Xu Xinyan’s heart. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and put a piece of rabbit meat in his mouth and chewed it slowly. To be honest, the flesh of rabbit meat is old and the taste is not good. It is far worse than the craftsmanship of the palace chef, but he still enjoys it. Eat it, and by the way, Xu Jinyan also sat down: "Xiao Xuzi, sit next to you."

Xu Jinyan hesitated: "The emperor, the slave is not hungry."

Qin Mu: "Let's come over when you come over, don't you listen to the order?"

Xu Jinyan did not dare to make any resignation. He sat down beside Qin Mu and handed a pair of chopsticks next to him. He was flattered and took a bite. After he tasted a dish, he looked stiff and bowed his head: "The slaves will be good afterwards." Learn to cook."

Qin Mu is a little funny: "When did you say that it is not good?" He slammed Xu Qing’s thin face, and Qin Mu ordered: "Let’s eat more, I don’t want people to think that they don’t want to eat for their subordinates.”

Xu Jinyan heard the words and was busy trying to cook.

The corner of his mouth smirked, and Qin Mu couldn't help thinking. He didn't expect to come to the end. He still chose to stay with him. It would be Xu Jinyan. When I think of it, he can't help but think of another person. The talents are high-spirited, the temperament is elegant, and the appearance is even better. It is clear and handsome, and people can see it. But the man he was sympathetic to, but he betrayed him.

This is the end of the matter, his mountains and rivers are in jeopardy, Qin Mu has no thoughts and heartache for the betrayal of Su Li.

"The emperor, Su Li, this thief came, and at this time outside the door, he said that there is something to be said to the emperor."

On the occasion of Qin Mu's god, a sudden report came from the outside of the tent. Qin Mu's expression was cold. Su Li actually had a face to see him? !

He lowered his face and said, "Bring him in."

"Yes, the emperor."

The two soldiers opened the curtain and took Su Li and walked in.

"You must step back." Qin Mu whispered, the two soldiers bent down and retreated.

Qin Mu voted for a glimpse, seeing Su Li's shawl, ragged, and stunned on the ground, he laughed and said: "What wind blows Su Shi."

Xu Jinyan sat next to Qin Mu and stopped the chopsticks in his hand.

Su Li looked at Xu Jinyan and said: "The emperor, the minister came here to expose the behavior of Xu Gonggong colluding with the party and intending to rebel."

Qin Mu did not believe him. "Oh? You accused Xiao Xuzi of this crime, can there be evidence?"

Su Li raised his head and said with earnest words: "We received a secret report from Weichen. Xu Jinyan was close to the emperor to murder you. The express horse rushed over to rescue the emperor."

"So far, do you think you will still believe in you?!"

Qin Mu was furious and slammed the table and stood up from the seat.

As soon as the voice fell, his face changed and his figure shook slightly. In order not to let himself fall, he had to hold the edge of the table with his hand. The strength of the body was pumped away, and Qin Mu slowly turned his head and looked at Xu Jinyan with disbelief: "You..."

"The emperor, what happened to you?"

Xu Jinyan noticed that he had just stepped forward to help Qin Mu, and Qin Mu suddenly opened his hand. "Don't touch it!"

After knowing what he was aware of, Xu Jinyan sneaked to Su Li: "It is you..."

Su Li climbed up from the ground and quickly moved forward to hold Qin Mu. The language was worried and said: "The emperor, are you okay?"

"I do not……"

Qin Mu shook his head, and the last word had not been finished. He suddenly stopped, slowly lowered his head, and his eyes fell on the handle of his stomach. The pain quickly swept the whole body, and he took a step back and leaned against Xu Jinyan’s arms behind him. Xu Jinyan’s eyes were red, and Qin Mu’s wound was covered with his hand. He trembled: “The emperor.”

"Oh... I trust you."

Qin Mu smiled awkwardly. He was at the last minute and actually believed in Su Li.

Slowly and wield the blood on the dagger with his sleeves, Su Li stunned Qin Mu, who was soft in Xu Jinyan's arms, with a cold smile like a cold moon on his face: "Don't blame me, you can only blame you for trusting me too much."
