Chapter 309: Mumu keeps her word
The Wise King of Beiyue raised an eyebrow, his eyes never leaving Li Mumu. "I heard you're proficient in medicine and the use of poison. You look only four or five years old, right?"
"Four years old, just had his birthday not long ago." Li Mumu answered every question.
The wise king of Beiyue nodded. "Who was your teacher? Could it be that you learned it on your own?"
"I don't deserve it. A long illness makes a doctor. I'm sure you've heard that I was stupid and dull before. I've taken so many medicines that I'll naturally be able to prescribe medicine. It's not something to brag about."
Old Master Bai tried to hold back his laughter. This little girl's words were so irritating.
The wise king of Beiyue was not angry. "As expected of General Gu's granddaughter, you were quite skilled in those two moves just now. General Hu Lie, if this gets out, you'll become a laughing stock."
The man's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He clasped his hands and said, "Wise King, I was caught off guard just now. She's just a child. I could have killed her with one move."
boast.
Li Mumu smiled and said, "Then let's have a competition later."
Hu Lie's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that there would be someone so fearless of death.
This little girl has been praised too much and has really taken herself too seriously.
"It's not right for a grown-up like me to bully a little girl like you," the man grinned.
"It would be bad if word got out that you were afraid to fight me because you couldn't beat me, right?"
"You..." Hu Lie didn't expect Li Mumu to be so sharp-tongued. "Well, you're courting death."
We still don’t know who is really seeking death!
Old Master Bai looked at Li Mumu with a worried look on his face. Hu Lie's reputation was not false. Was Mumu too reckless this time?
"General Hu Lie, Mu Mu is joking with you." Rong Jinxuan said.
Li Mumu looked at Rong Jinxuan, "I don't have any."
"Mumu..." Rong Jinxuan shook his head at her, thinking that she shouldn't agree to this matter. "General Hu Lie, please don't hurt the relationship."
"How could it damage the relationship?" Li Mumu said with a smile: "Eighth Prince, do you think Beiyue is so stingy? No, right, wise prince?"
"Of course, I also want to see how powerful General Gu's granddaughter is."
Hu Lie snorted coldly. This girl did have some abilities, but it was a pity that she was too arrogant. That's why she lost her life.
He swore that he would never show mercy.
Mr. Bai continued to preside over the situation and welcomed the envoys to the inn.
On the way, Rong Jinxuan looked at Li Mumu worriedly, "Mumu, Hu Lie is cruel and very brave. Why didn't you listen to me?"
Li Mumu looked at him, "Eighth Prince, just because they are brave, do we have to be suppressed forever?"
"I...that's not what I meant, it's just that now is not the time!"
"Then when is the time?" Li Mumu asked again.
"Anyway, I'm worried about you." He took a deep breath.
"Thank you, but I only know that my grandfather, uncles, and so many soldiers fought bloody battles to protect the dignity of Dongyao and its people, and not allow them to be trampled upon."
Rong Jinxuan was about to say something but swallowed it back, "What if you can't win? After all, you caught him by surprise today, and he was completely unprepared. But if we really fight head-on, you are no match for him. It's better to be patient."
"But being patient means sacrificing a lot of things."
Rong Jinxuan looked into her bright eyes and said, "You have a good relationship with Qingyang, you don't want her to marry to Beiyue, right?"
Is this even necessary?
But Li Mumu was too lazy to answer.
Because Rong Jinxuan's behavior is no longer worthy of being the male lead.
His success was built on the sacrifice of many people's happiness.
"But you can't stop it, not only you, but also the Gu family. Qingyang is a princess, and this is her mission."
Li Mumu really wanted to laugh. Not to mention that he was so stupid that he didn't know why Princess Qingyang agreed to the marriage. If he really didn't know, then such a stupid guy would not be worthy of being the emperor.
Li Mumu spread her hands and said, "I didn't stop them. I just didn't want them to come to our doorstep and bully us."
Rong Jinxuan sighed, "You, it's okay. I will explain to the Emperor on your behalf. As for General Hu Lie... I will also find a way. Just treat it as an unusual joke."
"But what if he doesn't want to?"
"Then you should admit defeat at the beginning. You are just a child anyway, no one will laugh at you, and his victory is unfair to him." Rong Jinxuan said.
Li Mumu smiled. As expected, people with different ideas cannot work together.
She couldn't stand the heroine's behavior, and the hero loved her deeply, and they couldn't have two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed.
They were not originally the same kind of people.
"Leave this matter to me." Rong Jinxuan said without question.
Li Mumu didn't say anything because she was too lazy to talk.
After settling the envoys, Mr. Bai also came to find Li Mumu.
In response to his persuasion, Li Mumu told him to stop persuading with just one sentence.
"Grandpa Bai, do you think I would do something I'm not sure of?"
Mr. Bai paused, then smiled, "Good boy, since you said so, then I'll wait and see you beat up the wild dog."
"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten it, the dog-beating stick technique." Li Mumu laughed.
Although Mr. Bai didn't understand, he laughed along.
All civil and military officials of the second rank and above attended the palace night banquet, and they were allowed to bring their families.
Naturally, people from the Gu family also came, and Li Mumu sat with Princess Qingyang.
Emperor Xuande was quite happy when he knew that Li Mumu had embarrassed Hu Lie when he was welcoming the envoy.
He is just that kind of person. Although he took the initiative to seek peace, he doesn't want others to show off in front of others.
In Li Mumu's view, it means being both responsible and insolent.
During the banquet, the King of North Vietnam praised Li Mumu highly. Emperor Xuande's laughter said it all, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. Mumu is just a child. Children don't know the rules. I hope Your Majesty and General Hu Lie will not blame you."
"Your Majesty, does that mean her statement about competing with this general doesn't count?" Hu Lie rubbed his hands, questioning in his tone.
"Are all of you Dongyao people so fickle?"
Emperor Xuande waved his hand, signaling General Hu Lie to calm down. "Letting a child compete with General Hu Lie is underestimating you. It would be more appropriate to let the child's uncle compete with you."
Emperor Xuande looked at the three brothers of the Gu family on his right and said, "Gu Mingjing, come here!"
Gu Mingjing didn't care and had wanted to beat this guy up for a long time, but Li Mumu said at this time, "Your Majesty, although Mumu is young, he also knows that a gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Let Mumu come."
Hu Lie sneered, "That's right, why don't I wait until I defeat the little princess first, and then compete with General Gu."
Gu Mingjing suppressed his smile and said, "Okay."
I was afraid that by then, he wouldn’t have the strength to get up and fight me.
The three brothers have all experienced Li Mumu's natural power. At first, she just didn't know the moves, but now under the careful teaching of the three of them, even if the three of them join forces, they may not be able to defeat Li Mumu.
This is no joke.
