In the gorgeous felt tent, Yan Xuanye, Machi and Gebulu sat facing each other in silence with heavy expressions.
A few days ago, rumors started from nowhere, spreading the news that Su Qian was a witch who would bring disaster to people.
At the beginning, no one believed it. Later, somehow, the rumor used Nanchang Kingdom as an example, saying that it was because of Su Qian's existence that Nanchang Kingdom was destroyed.
Perhaps because there were real examples, gradually more and more people began to believe the rumors.
In the past few days, various versions of rumors have been circulating in the military camp, but all of them are directed at Su Qian. Because there are so many people involved, the source cannot be found.
Yan Xuanye's face was gloomy. "No matter what, we can't let this matter be publicized any further."
"It would be best if we could find out who spread the rumor, but if we can't..."
His eyes darkened and his voice was cold and stern, "Anyone who dares to slander the goddess again will be dragged out and killed as a warning to others."
Ma Qi hesitated a little: "Killing someone just for spreading a rumor, isn't that a bit too much..."
Yan Xuanye naturally knew that this was a bit too much, but whenever someone endangered Su Qian's life, safety, or reputation, an irrepressible malice would grow in his heart.
"I'm not the kind of unreasonable person, so I'll naturally give them a chance to mend their ways. But if someone refuses to obey and insists on committing the same sin, do I have to indulge them again and again?"
"Just do as I tell you. Also, keep this a secret. Don't let the goddess hear about it, or she'll be sad."
Gebru replied, "Yes."
Before the two of them could get up and leave, they heard the sound of talking outside. The three of them raised their heads and looked towards the curtain.
The people who came were several generals in the army, who were very capable in their daily lives. They were accompanied by a shaman with a solemn and dignified temperament.
He had long feathers and colorful tassels on his head, and various bells, bronze mirrors and magical instruments hung on his body. The bells rang continuously when he walked, and even his body and face were painted with colorful and mysterious shamanic symbols and patterns.
Gebulu frowned, feeling something was wrong. He stood up and said to the wizard, "Why are you here, Master Wizard?"
He looked at these people with some dissatisfaction, "Mu Da, how can you easily trouble the witch master?"
His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is already angry at the moment. If they insist on seeking death, even he cannot save them.
Gebulu took a few steps forward and whispered in front of Muda, "Your Highness is upset and angry about recent events. I advise you, if you don't want to offend His Highness and want to save your life, get out now!"
Mu Da has also followed Yan Xuanye for many years, but unfortunately, Yan Xuanye has always valued Ge Bulu. Ge Bulu is calm and fierce on the battlefield. He often serves as a vanguard general, and he has nothing to say.
But... Muda looked at Machi who was sitting on the carpet with dissatisfaction. Seeing his clear eyes, he felt even more dissatisfied.
Gebulu was fine, because he was indeed excellent, but what was the reason for Machi? Machi was still young and impatient, and it was difficult for him to take on such a big responsibility, but His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan trusted him and was willing to hand things over to him.
Muda just couldn't figure it out. Even if he wasn't as good as Gebulu, how could he be inferior to Machi? He had to let His Highness know that he was the one who could help him!
Mu Da saluted and said to Yan Xuanye, "Your Highness, I have recently heard some rumors in the army. I think it makes sense, so I thought we should call the witch to come together to consult the hexagrams and determine whether that person is the true goddess."
"If not, then..." A fierce light flashed in Mu Da's eyes.
He hadn't finished speaking, but everyone present understood what he meant.
Yan Xuanye stared at him for several seconds before looking away coldly. He endured the anger that was surging in his heart and refrained from touching him?
After all, Mu Da has followed him for more than ten years. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he doesn't want to hurt the relationship between brothers.
Yan Xuanye: "Mu Da, you have overstepped your bounds."
"She is married to me, so she is my wife. Even you should address her as Princess."
It doesn't matter whether she is a human, a god, or a demon.
Is it her identity that he cares about?
No, he cared about her as a person.
Mu Da was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Could it be that Your Highness has so quickly forgotten the lesson of Nanchang Kingdom?"
"This woman fell from the sky, and no one knows her true identity. Moreover, everyone knows that she once betrayed His Highness. Her departure for Nanchang State could, at best, be a fire in the house of that thief Lu Huan, and at worst, the downfall of Nanchang State."
Muda questioned, "Does Your Highness want to repeat the same mistake?"
Yan Xuanye cast a deadly gaze at him and said sternly, "Mu Da, be aware of your identity!"
Yan Xuanye stood up, his strong and sturdy figure carrying an oppressive momentum and the aura of the supreme ruler who shook the world, and slowly approached where Mu Da was.
Yan Xuanye stood firmly in front of Mu Da, with Gebulu standing on his left and the shaman waiting to be dispatched on his right.
Everyone was waiting for him to make a move, but Yan Xuanye calmly said, "Everyone else go out, Mu Da stay."
The people present looked at each other, and finally Gebulu and Machi were the first to leave the tent. The wizard followed closely without saying a word, and the other generals who came with Muda followed them out.
Yan Xuanye spoke earnestly, "Mu Da, you've been with me for many years, and I've treated you well. But do you know why I don't value you as much as I valued Ge Bulu and the others?"
