Chapter 382 If you have a different heart, step on the Nanman!
From behind the curtain, Mu Duo walked out with a tired look.
There was no joy at all seeing the person he liked on his face, instead he lowered his head with a hint of shame.
"Senior Sister, I'm sorry, I screwed everything up."
He lowered his head, not daring to look at Qin Rushuang.
In her heart, Qin Rushuang loved Mu Duo as her younger brother. Seeing his appearance, she no longer wanted to accuse him and just said, "As long as you are fine."
Xie Xun looked so disgusted at the side that he couldn't even look at it, but he thought that Qin Rushuang cared about Mu Duo, and he could vaguely guess that Qin Rushuang regarded Mu Duo as his younger brother, so he held back and said nothing.
Qin Rushuang comforted Mu Duo for a few words, and then asked: "Is what the queen said true?"
Mu Duo nodded, "My mother and I sincerely want to make this deal with you. If you are worried, I can..."
Qin Rushuang shook her head to stop him from saying the next words, and replied, "If it is your promise, of course I am willing to believe it."
She turned her gaze to the Nanman Queen and said, "Then I will disturb the Nanman Palace for a few days."
A few people just made up their next plan in a few words, but Xie Xun stayed by the side with a bad face and refused to speak.
Seeing that the discussion was almost over, he said to Qin Rushuang with a cold face, "Come here, I have something to tell you."
Qin Rushuang didn't show anything, but Mr. Mu Duo was angry.
"Hey! What's your attitude towards my little senior sister?"
Xie Xun's temper also rose, and he said to Mu Mu with a cold face, "It's none of your business what my attitude is towards her! Who do you think you are, you have no right to interfere in the affairs between us!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Qin Rushuang glanced at the Nanman Queen who was watching the play with great interest. She felt vaguely that this mother was not reliable, so she could only speak out to reconcile.
"Mu Duo, you are tired of serving your father these days. Go and rest first."
Then he turned to Xie Xun and said, "What do you want to say to me, Your Majesty?"
The Nanman Queen had finished watching the show, so she grabbed Mu Duo and said, "You and the Queen Mother will go down first, and let the Princess and the Prince have a few words in private."
"I don't want it! I want to watch him, he will bully the little senior sister!"
The queen flicked a chestnut on Mu Duo's head and said: "Children are just children, they don't have the bearing of a mature man at all!"
She sneaked closer to Mu Duo and whispered, "Look at how angry Prince Huai was when you were talking to Princess Huai just now, but he still couldn't hold back his temper. Why are you just letting it go? You won't learn how to do it."
Do you like it? Today’s women all like mature and steady men..."
After speaking, he patted Mu Duo on the shoulder and persuaded: "Be good, if you go out with the Queen Mother, will the Queen Mother harm you? Princess Huanghuai will stay in the palace for many days, and you will have many opportunities to develop feelings with her.
, Men, be more generous!"
The Nanman Queen thought she spoke very quietly, but everyone present was a martial arts practitioner. Who could not hear what he said?
Xie Xun's face was almost frozen with ice.
The Nanman Queen finally took Mu Duo down.
After the two left, only Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun were left in the hall.
"Do you really want to stay in this palace?"
Qin Rushuang said calmly, "The queen is right. Since you want to make a deal with someone, you must show some sincerity. I believe they will not mess around. Prince, please feel free to go."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her to reply, Xie Xun could only agree angrily, but still told her: "That Mu Duo has ill intentions towards you at the first sight, so stay away from him."
He was not the type to speak ill of people behind their backs, but thinking of Mu Duo's many irritations, Xie Xun rarely broke his precept and said to Qin Rushuang, "Mu Duo is just a brat with no hair on his back. Don't let him fall in love with you."
You lied to me, I will come back to pick you up after I win."
Qin Rushuang was speechless. The two of them were more childish than the other. She could only nod helplessly and agreed: "I understand, Your Majesty, please go quickly."
The two made it clear that Xie Xun went to see the Queen of Nanman and got the information she had promised before.
He didn't even say a word of thanks, turned around and left the hall with a cold face to meet the three guards.
It wasn't that he was rude, but that both mother and son were eyeing his princess. How could he endure it?
Yan Guang saw them coming out and stepped forward and said: "Guys, wait a moment and I will lead you out of the dense forest..."
Xie Xun waved his hands with a cold face and said, "No, we will go back by ourselves."
Yan Guang was startled, "This... can't be done! The dense forest is full of miasma, and there are many poisonous insects. Moreover, the forest is so dense that it is difficult to recognize the direction. Outsiders may be trapped inside if they go in."
"This is our own business. We don't need you to escort us. We will go back right now."
After saying that, he took the three guards and returned to the outskirts of the dense forest along the original path.
The three guards looked at each other in confusion. After all, it was the protector's thoughts that had the upper hand. One of them asked: "Your Majesty, do we really have to go back on our own? If we encounter any danger..."
"It would be a good idea to investigate this forest as soon as possible. If the princess can be successfully retrieved this time, then it will be okay. If they dare to play any tricks..."
A fierce look flashed across Xie Xun's face, "Then I will lead my troops and crush the Southern Barbarians! Sooner or later, people will come to this dense forest. It's better to find out more about it sooner."
Seeing Xie Xun's appearance, the three guards did not dare to object any more and got up and entered the dense forest.
When they passed through the dense forest at noon, it took them half an afternoon to guide them. When they returned, no one was there to guide them. They had to explore by themselves. The four of them did not return to the military camp until dawn.
Moreover, the three people all had injuries of varying degrees, some were scratched by plants, some were bitten by poisonous insects, and some were accidentally stepped on a mechanism in the dense forest.
But at least all four of them came back intact.
One of them said to Xie Xun with a little fear, "Fortunately, the prince is wise and took us in to explore in advance. You don't know that there are so many traps and traps in this dense forest! If we hadn't found out clearly today,
If you bring a large number of soldiers and horses to attack in the future, I'm afraid you will lose a lot of people."
Xie Xun nodded and ordered: "Call Qin Rufeng and we will send out troops tomorrow."
The guard was a little surprised: "Are you so anxious?"
"The Queen of Nanman is right. Attack these two cities as soon as possible and bring the princess back as soon as possible. Otherwise, things will change later. Who knows if the mother and son have evil intentions and want to take the opportunity to deceive the princess!"
The guard was stunned for a moment after hearing this, thinking to himself, what could the princess do if she deceived a living person? It’s not gold, silver, jewelry, or territory...
But he didn't dare to say anything. He could only follow Xie Xun's instructions and call Qin Rufeng over.
When Qin Rufeng heard that Qin Rushuang was trapped in the Nanman Palace, he was even more anxious than Xie Xun.
"My lord, how could you leave your sister there alone? That is the palace of an enemy country!"
"Of course I know! I don't want to either, but you know your sister, she's a stickler for words, and no one can sway her mind."
The anxiety on Qin Rufeng's face almost turned into reality, and he asked Xie Xun, "What are your plans, then?"
Xie Xun took out the things given to him by the Nanman Princess from his arms and said, "Take a look at these things first, and let the scouts explore the truth early tomorrow morning!"
