In the hills and bushes, Tang Xiaohao asked Chi Erda about the details of the surprise attack on Rouyuan Palace.
Chi Erda naturally refused to tell the truth, because once he confessed, it would be a leak of secrets, and if he leaked the secrets, he would be beheaded.
Tang Xiaohao saw that Chierda refused to say who specifically arranged it, so he changed his question: "When we found you and the princess, the three killers also happened to appear. It can be heard from your conversation that the three killers
This weird thing is supposed to come to pick you up, but why do you even want to get rid of it?"
Yes, why?
Chierda didn't understand, and Baomeng certainly didn't understand either.
Little Lingdang didn't care at all about what Tang Xiaohao said, because she fell into a coma after being wrapped in mud turned into earth ghosts. After she was in coma, she had a dream.
The dream was very vague. Xiao Lingdang vaguely remembered that there was a woman in the dream. The woman was saying something to her, but she could not hear clearly. There seemed to be someone else beside the woman, but she could not clearly see the person next to her or even speak.
The appearance of the woman could not be clearly seen, and it could only be determined that the woman was wearing white clothes.
Therefore, after Xiao Lingdang woke up, she was always recalling the details in her dreams, trying to find her lost memories in order to regain her original identity.
Chi Erda fell into deep thought, and Baomeng asked him: "General, what on earth is going on?"
Tang Xiaohao asked again: "Is it possible that the people who were originally responsible for you were killed by these three killers? The killers learned about your plan from the people who were responsible for you, so they came to find you along the way? Then, the question is, who are the killers?
Who sent it?"
Chi Erda remained silent, although that was also a possibility.
Tang Xiaohao did not look at Chierda, but deliberately looked at Baomeng and said: "Princess, as far as I know, the Torsi tribe is now divided into two factions, one is for peace, and the peace faction wants you to go back and inherit the throne of the clan king.
The war faction hopes that your half-brother will inherit the throne, and will also raise troops to launch a war against Huayuan."
Baomeng subconsciously looked at Chierda. Chierda came to save her and protect her. It was obvious that she was from the Lord He faction.
Tang Xiaohao continued: "The person who arranged General Chierda's surprise attack on Rouyuan Palace to take the princess back must be a high-ranking official in the Torsi Department. However, there is no guarantee that this kind of thing will not leak out. Maybe the main war faction will have already
Isn’t this the truth of arranging people to kill the people who are helping you on the way?"
Baomeng nodded, and Chierda also nodded.
But Tang Xiaohao said: "It's a fart. Why are you nodding your head? It doesn't make any sense."
Chierda and Baomeng were stunned, not understanding what Tang Xiaohao meant.
Tang Xiaohao sighed and explained: "I believe that the main fighting faction of the Torsi Department is not so stupid. If I were this group of people, I would send people to follow Chi'er to Rouyuan, and then contact the killers and ambush them where they must pass.
On the way."
Chi Erda immediately said: "But how do they know which way we should take?"
Tang Xiaohao looked at Chi Erda: "How did you become the Ten Thousand Houses of Pansy? I believe it must not have been based on brains, right?"
Chi Erda was very unhappy when he heard this, but he had to endure it.
Baomeng had no choice but to smooth things over and said, "What does the consort mean?"
Tang Xiaohao explained patiently: "Let me give you an example. If I were a killer hired by the main war faction of the Torsi Department, then I would follow Chi Erda all the time and follow him to Rouyuan Palace, the Qinghe hunting ground, and wait for Chi Erda.
When I take action, it is my first chance. I can take advantage of the chaos to go in and kill the princess, but the chance of success is very low because Childa is leading a group of monsters. Therefore, I will follow secretly, and then I will kill Childa.
When those five monsters are released into the village to attack, they will kill you two cleanly immediately. There is no need to bother and kill the people who were supposed to be there to respond to you. Now, do you understand? Am I clear enough?
"
Xiao Lingdang was suppressing a smile at the side. Based on her understanding of Tang Xiaohao, he explained so clearly that Chi Erda and Bao Meng, especially Chi Erda, were regarded as a mentally retarded fool.
Baomeng nodded and said: "What the consort said makes sense, there is no need to do anything unnecessary."
Chi Erda actually knew that Tang Xiaohao suspected that the person who instructed Chi Erda to rescue Bao Meng had originally planned to let Bao Meng die, not to save her.
Of course, Childa didn't want to believe it.
Tang Xiaohao saw Chierda's troubled expression and asked deliberately: "General, I think the people who sent you don't want the princess to go back alive."
Chi Erda said in desperation: "Dadu Tong is definitely not that kind of person!"
"Oh -" Tang Xiaohao immediately nodded and said, "It turns out that you were sent here by the majority of the Torsi Department."
The chief commander of the Tuorsi tribe corresponds to the rank of the imperial court, that is, a first-rank official. Like Tang Chen, he belongs to General Jianwei. The difference is that Tang Chen is only the commander of the armored guards, while the chief commander of the Torsi tribe is the commander of the entire Rouyuan Army.
The commander-in-chief of the entire army, truly one person is inferior to ten thousand people, and above him is the king of the Torsi tribe.
Nowadays, most of the Tuolsi tribe are collectively named Antai. When the previous king of the tribe was in power, he was just like the current Chi Erda. It was not until the new king Gurke came to the throne after killing his father and brother that he became the king of the tribe.
He was ordered to be the governor of Dadu.
On the surface, Antai is Gurke's man, but Gurke himself neither advocates peace nor war, and just takes it one step at a time.
In fact, even Childa was confused, how could such an indecisive person do such a thing as killing his father and brother? But this happened to be the reason why he could succeed. Before he did it, no one was on guard against Gurke.
.
Chi Erda saw that he had already spoken out and did not hide it: "Lord Antai will not do this. If he wants the princess to die, he can send someone else to surprise Rouyuan Palace and kill the princess!"
Of course, Baomeng was not stupid enough to have the same idea as Chierda. She just looked at Tang Xiaohao and at the same time, she was thinking about what to do. Should she go back to the imperial city or continue to Rouyuan?
Tang Xiaohao looked around for something, and Xiao Lingdang immediately asked: "What are you looking for?"
Tang Xiaohao said angrily: "Give me your sword, and I will stab this idiot to death with one strike!"
Chierda still didn't realize where she was stupid and looked at Baomeng with innocent eyes.
Baomeng sighed: "Because if you come to kill me directly, you will give the court an excuse. The most important thing is, what if the person sent to kill me is captured alive? Once the news is sent back to the Torsi Department, then, Lord and
The faction will get the support of everyone except the main war faction."
The reason why there are war faction and peace faction is because there are still a group of people who are still waiting and watching.
Tang Xiaohao looked at Chi Erda who looked dissatisfied and said: "I know, you want to say that the people sent must be extremely loyal and will commit suicide if they are caught. However, there are no absolutes in everything, and they will not be stupid enough to take risks.
This risk."
Chi Erda nodded slightly, but in his heart he still didn't want to believe that Lord Antai was that kind of person.
At this time, Tang Xiaohao felt that the body temperature of the Su Mu he was holding had risen, and it was basically normal. Su Mu also slowly opened his eyes. Just when he was happy, Su Mu directly pulled out a
The hidden weapon was aimed at Tang Xiaohao's throat.
Su Mu's move shocked everyone.
Xiao Lingdang reacted very quickly. The moment Su Mu took action, she also drew her sword and aimed it at Su Mu's throat.
Chierda subconsciously protected Baomeng, while Baomeng said: "Su Zhongguan, what are you doing?"
Su Mu didn't seem to be fully awake yet. After realizing that it was Tang Xiaohao in front of him, he put down his concealed weapon, stood up slowly and asked, "Why are you holding me?"
Tang Xiaohao immediately explained: "When you were in a coma, you kept saying you were cold, and you couldn't make a fire, so I could only hold you. I originally asked Chierda to hold you, but you found it smelly, so I couldn't let Princess or Little Bell hold you.
You? So, I can only wrong myself."
In fact, Tang Xiaohao was really scared before because he saw murderous intent in Su Mu's eyes. At that moment, Su Mu really wanted to kill him, but he probably didn't recognize who he was.
The reason why Su Mu took out a concealed weapon and pointed it at Tang Xiaohao's throat the moment he opened his eyes was entirely because of a certain unbearable memory in the past - the severe trauma caused by participating in the third trial when he was 15 years old.
Xuanbu's third trial was actually a test of whether he could withstand all kinds of torture to extract a confession. After Su Mu was caught, the guy he met to force a confession was not from Xuanbu, but to make this drama
Even more realistic, a pervert hired by Xuanbu, a pervert who likes boys. You can imagine what Su Mu, who was 15 years old at the time, had experienced.
This is why when Su Mu first entered Rouyuan Palace, Tang Xiaohao joked in an almost provocative way, which made him react so violently. It was also the main reason why he almost killed someone when he found Tang Xiaohao hugging him.
Su Mu stood up and kept a distance from Tang Xiaohao: "I don't like others touching me, no matter where it is, whether it's a man or a woman."
Tang Xiaohao deduced from Su Mu's words that there must be some reason, otherwise he would not be so extreme.
Su Mu hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Thank you."
Tang Xiaohao deliberately pretended not to hear: "What?"
Su Mu raised his eyes and frowned at Tang Xiaohao. Naturally, he would not repeat it again and changed the topic and asked: "Where are the three killers?"
Tang Xiaohao put his hands on his hips and said proudly: "I got rid of two of them, and the remaining one froze to death."
Su Mu looked at Tang Xiaohao in shock, then looked at Xiaolingdang, Baomeng and Chierda. The three of them nodded silently, indicating that what Tang Xiaohao said was true.
Although Su Mu didn't want to believe it, the facts were right in front of him. If the three killers hadn't been dead, he wouldn't be alive. The most outrageous thing is that Tang Xiaohao and the other four didn't have any injuries at all.
Before Su Mu fell into coma, he had thought in his mind that even if he took action against the three weird killers, he would not be sure to kill them all, let alone not getting hurt.
Tang Xiaohao was still dancing and retelling everything that happened before. Before he finished speaking, Su Mu grabbed Tang Xiaohao and said: "This is just your luck, you know!? Luck! Next time you encounter this kind of thing, you need to
There is only one thing to do, and that is to save your own life."
Su Mu's sudden anger surprised Tang Xiaohao and others. They wondered what happened to this guy with a weird temperament? Why did he suddenly become so angry?
Su Mu also realized that he had lost his temper and immediately explained: "My mission is to protect the consort and the princess. If something happens to you, there is no point in my survival."
In fact, Su Mu was very grateful to Tang Xiaohao. Although he really thought that Tang Xiaohao should run away at all costs, how could he run away when faced with those three killers who behaved strangely? Tang Xiaohao not only did not run away, but also risked his life to solve the crisis.
, saved everyone, and also saved myself.
This was the first time in his life that Su Mu felt warmth, the kind of warmth that would never leave him.
Moreover, he had long forgotten the last time he said "thank you" to someone.
