He didn't want Chaoyang to give him any more hatred.
"My life experience?" Chaoyang looked at Xiao Junze warily. "What do you mean..."
"Have you ever thought about what kind of person your biological father is?" Xiao Junze asked quietly.
"As a father, Mu Jingyan has done a great job." Chaoyang looked away. Although Mu Jingyan had never been a father for a day or loved her for a moment, Chaoyang knew that if Mu Jingyan could survive, he would definitely treat her like a father.
Be pampered like a little princess.
He must also be the apple of his father's eye.
Ever since Mu Jingyan started planning for her and her mother before his death, Chaoyang knew that he was a good father.
Xiao Junze was stunned for a moment and looked at Chaoyang nervously.
Did she really believe that Mu Jingyan was her father?
Nowadays, except for him and Shen Qingzhou, no one seems to know Chaoyang's true life experience.
"Chao'er, have you ever thought that if your father was Shen Qingzhou, you and your mother might not have to work so hard from the beginning?" Xiao Junze asked in a low voice, his words somewhat unconfident.
He wasn't sure whether Chaoyang could accept this fact.
I don’t know if I should tell Chaoyang.
What if he tells Chaoyang the truth and Chaoyang can't bear it...
If he doesn't tell Chaoyang that Chaoyang is an enemy of Shen Qingzhou, when he finds out in the future... he will think that he is using her to deal with Shen Qingzhou.
Xiao Junze was very conflicted and didn't know how to raise this matter with Chaoyang.
"Actually, when I was a child, I doubted my own life experience. When my mother was with Shen Qingzhou, I always thought that he was my father." Chaoyang treated the wound and smiled weakly.
"At that time, Shen Qingzhou held Shen Yunrou in the palm of his hand and made Shen Yunrou the most pampered daughter of the prime minister in Kyoto, while my mother and I could only hide in the dark corners of the summer resort."
"I hated and complained, but when I knew that I was not his daughter, I felt relieved instantly. Everything... was caused by cause and effect."
The cause and effect that was planted between Shen Qingzhou, Mu Jingyan, and Baili back then was repaid to her.
Xiao Junze fell silent.
He didn't speak again for a long time.
Perhaps, he still needs to find a suitable time to tell Chaoyang about this matter.
…
The borderland of Jiangnan.
Sima Lie's Guanzhong Army has already passed through the twelve cities in the south of the Yangtze River. They can set up camp outside the Pass at night and attack Mu's Army in the early morning.
Xiao Chengen reined in his horse on the hill and frowned slightly.
He knew that the army stationed forward was the Guanzhong Army, but how could Shen Qingzhou let the Guanzhong Army leave Kyoto? This direction was probably towards the Mu Family Army.
Moreover, the march was very secretive.
"Your Majesty, let's avoid the Guanzhong Army's troops." The secret guard reminded in a low voice.
"Send a message to Mr. Liu, saying that Shen Qingzhou asked some of the Guanzhong Army to leave and rush towards the 32nd city of Border Pass." Xiao Chengen nodded, reined in his horse and left quickly.
Xiao Chengen asked one of his men to go back and report the news. The military power was not in his hands. Shen Qingzhou really made a mistake.
Guanzhong Military Camp.
Sima Lie asked the soldiers to set up camp and planned to raid the Mu family army early tomorrow morning without giving the Mu family army a chance to breathe.
"General, the Mu family army has not noticed that we have arrived outside Jiangnan City, and all the spies who came to explore the road have been killed by us."
The scar between Sima Lie's eyebrows was ferocious, and he raised his cold eyes like a wolf in the prairie. "Very good."
"Report! General, Prime Minister Shen has a secret message."
Sima Lie took the secret letter and took a look at it. Princess Chaoyang was in the Mujia military camp. This person was still useful, so he should not hurt her.
Squinting his eyes, the chill in Sima Lie's eyes became more intense.
It's abnormal that Shen Qingzhou actually cares about Bai Li and Mu Jingyan's daughter.
"Princess Chaoyang is at the Mujia military camp?" Sima Lie asked lightly.
"Yes!" His subordinate nodded.
"Pass my order to have the Mu family's army informants spread rumors in the army, saying that the Princess of Chaoyang has a close relationship with Dayu in southern Xinjiang. She is already married to Dayu, and her heart is not in Fengtian. She is staying here. I'm in the military camp to help Emperor Dayu capture the thirty-two border cities."
Rumors are like corrosive poison. Once they start to spread, they are out of control.
If the entire Mu family army is wiped out, the sewage on Chaoyang's body... will never be able to be washed away.
Crushing the secret letter in his hand with his fingers, Mu Jingyan's daughter should have died long ago.
Since the Prime Minister said there are other uses, let her live a few more days.
…
At night.
Border Pass, Mujia Military Camp.
"Have you heard that Princess Chaoyang didn't come to help us when she stayed in the military camp? She came to act as an informant to help Emperor Dayu recapture the Thirty-Two Cities."
"I've also heard that Xie Yulan is pretending to surrender. The battle between Princess Chaoyang and her was all planned, just to lurk in our Mu family army and take the opportunity to attack our Mu family army!"
"Princess Chaoyang is the person who was sent to Dayu for marriage. I saw with my own eyes that Emperor Dayu jumped off the cliff for her at all costs!"
"There is definitely something wrong with the two of them!"
The rumors were as strong as poison and quickly penetrated the Mu family army.
"General, then Xie Yulan is a spy, and so is Princess Chaoyang!" Someone tipped this matter into Muji's ears.
Muji frowned and his face darkened. "Do you know what you are talking about? Spreading rumors is not allowed in the military, don't you know?"
"General, I saw with my own eyes that Princess Chaoyang sent a messenger pigeon in the direction of Dayu. There is communication between her and Emperor Dayu. Look! This is a secret letter from Dayu..." Someone hurriedly walked to Muji's side. , holding a dead bird in his hand.
"This was shot secretly by my subordinates."
Muji opened the letter suspiciously, and it turned out to be a secret letter from Emperor Dayu to Princess Chaoyang.
"There is also this person. He is responsible for receiving secret letters." The subordinate looked outside the camp and asked someone to tie an informant in. "It has been found out that it is Dayu's informant."
Muji's face became heavier and heavier, and his heart trembled.
The letter said that Xie Yulan faked his surrender and conspired with Chaoyang in order to deal with the Mu family army and to recapture all the cities at the border.
"General, Princess Chaoyang wants you to come over." Outside the camp, someone came to deliver a message.
Mu Ji was a little undecided. Mu Huaicheng and His Majesty seemed to have great trust in Chaoyang.
Now the identities of Mu Huaicheng and His Majesty cannot be exposed. If Princess Chaoyang and Xie Yulan are both spies...
The consequences would be unimaginable.
"Have people keep an eye on Xie Yulan and Xie Yunnan's every move, and let me know as soon as possible if there is any situation." Muji had to suspect that the rumors were not groundless.
When Xie Yulan first surrendered to the Mu Family Army, many soldiers protested, saying that Xie Yulan had faked his surrender.
From this point of view, he really deserves attention.
Chaoyang Camp.
"Chao'er, are you looking for us?" Mu Huaicheng and the generals walked in from outside the camp, not knowing what Chaoyang wanted to say.
"I suspect there is contact between Sima Lie and Dayu. If they attack from both sides, our chances of winning are very slim." Chaoyang was a little worried and summoned the soldiers of the Mu family army to discuss.
"Sima Lie is a low-key person, and he never makes enemies with others. When he is not sure whether the Mu family army will refuse to hand over the border, he will not kill them all like this." Mu Ji didn't know Chaoyang's intention of suddenly summoning everyone, but
Combined with the secret letter he just received, Muji was a little worried.
There is no hatred or intersection between Mu Jiajun and Sima Lie. But Chaoyang said this because he wanted Mu Jiajun to start a war with Sima Lie.
If a war breaks out, the Mu family's army will inevitably suffer losses. When Dayu's people take the opportunity to attack, they will be able to gain control of the thirty-two border cities without any effort.
