Chapter 354 Aunt Saves Lives
Thirteen and Jin Fengnian felt like they were having a dream.
"I think I can see the Dragon Palace."
"It just looks like a replica."
Thirteen:"……"
He dreamed about it too.
But the thought of sharing a dream with a man sends chills down my spine...
"Where's Chirp? Did we just fall asleep here?"
Surely you don't need to be this tired?
"Oh no, we've encountered a mirage in Shanghai! Chirp chirp?"
"I'm here." A listless little voice sounded from behind them. Turning around, they saw Chiu Chiu sitting there like a wilted little cabbage.
He was also holding a... royal seal?!
Where did you get this?
The two had their memories erased, so they couldn't recall anything about what happened in the pirated Dragon Palace, let alone know about Chiu Chiu's current troubles.
Qiuqiu held the king's seal with a worried expression. She looked up sadly and said, "Don't gossip about things in the martial arts world."
Jin Fengnian was shocked that Qiuqiu could speak so fluently.
"You've stopped stuttering?"
Chiu Chiu looked distressed: "Don't ask."
Chiu Chiu's luck was so good that the two of them had become accustomed to everything, and even the strange arrival of the royal seal made them feel that it was to be expected.
Prince Ning was originally a scholar, but not skilled in military strategy. Fortunately, Ya'an still had his previous memories, which helped him set up traps outside the city to defend against various forces.
The two wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and Ya'an, feeling a bit dizzy, said, "I think I see the royal seal."
The royal seal is made of pure gold and gleams with a golden light in the sunlight.
Prince Ning: "Not only did I see the royal seal, I also saw Qiuqiu."
He turned his head and asked in confusion, "Does your wife hide things so casually?"
Ya'an: "..."
They soon realized something was wrong; Chirp was far too listless.
"Are you hurt? Were you bullied?"
Chiu Chiu shook her head, "Don't gossip about things in the martial arts world."
Our rivers and lakes have so many winding paths!
It wasn't until this point that Thirteen understood that Jianghu was referring to their aquatic tribe...
"What? Did you get into a fight with some other little fish in the desert?" Thirteen teased.
Prince Ning: "?"
Chiu Chiu scratched her head. To be precise, she would probably be beaten up by other little fish when she returned to her clan!
But it's okay, she's very resilient!
She held up the royal seal she had inexplicably obtained and handed it to Prince Ning, saying, "Hurry up, I miss my mother."
Holding the royal seal, Prince Ning looked at Qiuqiu with intense desire, "Do you know what it means to obtain the Turkic royal seal?"
Chirp sniffs: "See Mom!"
Prince Ning: “…”
What on earth is he talking about with a clueless brat?
They successfully located the royal seal, while the forces gathered by the Turkic Khan were already stationed outside the royal court.
Brother Dao looked hurried, his eyes flashing with fear, but then his expression hardened. Now that things had come to this, he figured he might as well fight his way out so that at least his descendants could live like human beings.
"Your Highness, Third Prince, the Khan's army is already stationed thirty miles away from us."
Prince Ning understood: "They've finally come. Send the order down, everyone be on high alert, ready to defend against the enemy at any time."
His expression was solemn; he didn't know if he would be able to return to the Great Zhou alive this time.
Jin Fengnian, the master of ruining the atmosphere, said with a strange look: "Strictly speaking, aren't we the foreign enemies?"
Prince Ning: "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
The Turkic Khan probably never imagined that these slaves would rebel under the "incitement" of a group of foreigners. His unquenchable anxiety led him to immediately order a night attack on the royal court.
"I don't care what methods you use. Gather all your forces and launch a full-scale attack tonight. Three days later, march south and conquer the Central Plains!"
Princess Mosu remained seated, her eyes gleaming with undisguised mockery. Even now, her foolish nephew still couldn't grasp the situation.
None of the people here genuinely want him to reclaim the royal court; they're all just looking to take advantage of his misfortune.
Land, power, slaves... these are what they want.
The chieftain of the savage tribe, Tecono, downed his drink in one gulp. "Your Majesty, how confident are you?"
The Turkic Khan remained silent, only saying, "I want you to fight to the death."
I understand, that means they're all being sent to their deaths.
They fought the slaves to a standstill, ultimately allowing him to profit.
Taikono scoffed. That woman, Que Yu, did have some ability, and with the support of her maternal family, they indeed dared not act rashly. But Que Yu was now imprisoned in the Great Zhou. The Que Yu family had also rebelled, and they had no chance of dealing with her now.
This idiot really thinks he's some kind of genius!
Even now, the Turkic Khan still believes he is the king who can command all the tribes, but in reality, everyone just left him there and left him there.
He was seething with anger, but there was nothing he could do. He knew he had no choice but to lie low and keep his plans hidden.
Mosu hurried away; she was now more interested in the young people from Da Zhou. She wanted to meet them.
Teikono caught up with Mosu and stopped her: "Where does the princess want to go?"
The curiosity in his eyes was undisguised.
Mosu raised an eyebrow, her striking features as bold as she was. "Doesn't Chief Taiko already know?"
Teikono laughed heartily: "Does the princess think that one of those Han Chinese is your lover?"
"Whoosh!"
With a flash of silver light, before Teikono could even see when Mosu had made her move, the dagger was already at his neck.
With a slight tremor of the hand, one could slit his throat.
"What...what do you want to do..." Teikono had witnessed this woman's ruthlessness before; she was capable of anything!
Mosu sneered: "If you know I'm crazy, then don't mess with me, or I'll kill you!"
After saying that, he sheathed his dagger and left, leaving Teikono to be ridiculed by the others.
Under the cover of night, Mosu went directly to the royal court alone.
Her striking red dress made her stand out in the darkness. Those guarding the royal court were terrified when they saw her, thinking they had encountered a vengeful ghost in the middle of the night.
Mo Su deliberately dressed as a Han Chinese and even applied makeup, and immediately asked to see Prince Ning.
Among the Han Chinese reported by the scout was a merchant surnamed Jin; Mo Su couldn't think of anyone else besides him.
"I want to see Prince Ning," she repeated.
The guard immediately burst out laughing: "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just see our prince whenever you want? Get lost!"
Mosu drew her dagger and toyed with it. "What if I said I was Mosu?"
The name "Mosu" was not unfamiliar in the Turkic lands. The guard shuddered at the thought of her methods. "You wait here."
Mosu has the strongest horses and is ruthless in killing. I'm not afraid of her fighting directly, but I'm more afraid of her using underhanded tactics.
Prince Ning was so worried that he couldn't sleep for nights on end. He also became jealous when he saw Qiuqiu pouting and having some sweet dream.
Upon hearing that Mosu had arrived, he immediately got up and went out.
He walked halfway before turning back to drape the cloak over Qiuqiu, and then grabbed Jin Fengnian by the ear and dragged him out.
How could you sleep like that!
Jin Fengnian followed behind Prince Ning with sleepy eyes. He was still growing at his age, so why couldn't he sleep!
He walked in a daze for a long time, when suddenly Prince Ning stopped and he bumped into his back before he could react.
Jin Fengnian was startled, and after recognizing the person in front of him, he exclaimed with delight, "Aunt!"
"Auntie, help me!"
I'm so sleepy... I can't seem to wake up properly every day after taking this medicine. I took a shower and was planning to take a nap before writing, but I ended up sleeping until 10 a.m.
