After falling softly, Xiao Yening went straight to the front seat and sat down.

And when he sat firmly, those people slowly took their seats on both sides.

"Your Highness, if you don't come back, the last general and others will be killed in the palace!"

No.1 sitting under Xiao Yening's left hand spoke, and when he finished speaking, the rest of the tent echoed,

"Your Highness, Vice General Wang lied to you. He is just a bad guy. He has already mounted his sword. It was the last few who took him down. Because of this, he is still angry with us to this day!"

"That's right, this temper is really too bad. Your Highness, you have to take good care of him. This stubborn donkey only listens to you alone."

"Haha, stop talking, as long as His Highness comes back safely, if you say it again, Vice General Wang is about to show his power. If you don't believe me, look at his liver-colored face."

Facing everyone's jokes, Deputy General Wang stared at him, snorted coldly, and then said to Xiao Yening,

"Your Highness, don't listen to their nonsense. The big guys know that you went to the palace alone, and they are all worried about you. Just these few, although they dare not go to the palace due to military orders? Looking for you, they all fell to their knees and begged their ancestors to thank God , pray to God to bless you!"

When Deputy Wang finished his words, those people's expressions became bright, and they started to play tricks one after another, splashing water back and forth with each other.

Xiao Yening leaned back in the chair, listening to their quarrel, the empty heart that had been drifting since Dongfang Jin's death finally gradually came to fruition.

And the crowd had been arguing for a long time, and suddenly found that Xiao Yening hadn't spoken since he came in, they all rolled their tongues and swallowed back the voice that came to their mouths.

"Your Highness? Are you alright? But what happened to the palace? Or did the subordinates mess with you?"

After Wang Fu finished speaking, the rest of them got up quickly, knelt down at the side at the same time, and said in a deep voice,

"The last general and others broke the rules and offended His Highness, and I hope His Highness will punish them!"

Vice-General Wang also stood up and knelt down,

Hearing this, Xiao Yening shook his head and raised his big hand when he recovered from his emptiness.

"It has nothing to do with you. Besides, why have I ever punished you for these trivial matters? Get up!"

Xiao Yening fell silent.

Those people stood up slowly, looking slightly relaxed.

That's right, they were thinking too much. Although Xiao Yening seemed indifferent and unkind, he had nothing to say to his subordinates in the army.

With them, Xiao Yening never held his identity, but regarded them as brothers, sharing weal and woe, advancing and retreating together.

This made them respect and get closer to him while admiring his outstanding ability in leading troops in combat.

After slowly seated again.

Deputy General Wang looked up at Xiao Yening, then hesitated and said,

"Your Highness, the general looks unhappy at you, but what happened to the palace?"

After Deputy Wang finished speaking, the rest of the people raised their heads one after another, looking at Xiao Yening worriedly.

The camp suddenly fell into silence. Seeing their worried faces, Xiao Yening was silent for a moment, then spoke softly.

"The prince is dead, he died on the short dagger in my hand. Now, everyone in the palace knows that I killed the prince with my own hands!"

After Xiao Yening finished speaking, the faces of the people in the camp were shocked. For a moment, a general slapped the chair handle, and then said angrily,

"Impossible, His Highness cannot kill the prince!"

His words fell,

Deputy General Wang also condensed his face, and finally looked at Xiao Yening hesitantly, and said.

"The fourth brother is right. Your Highness, it is impossible for you to kill the prince. Your Highness, what happened, there must be some misunderstanding?"

Hearing this, he looked at the people who chose to believe in him without hesitation.

Xiao Yening was a little funny.

"How do you know that I didn't kill the prince with my own hands?"

Hearing Xiao Yening's voice, Vice General Wang said with a sullen face,

"It's not the same thing. Your Highness is definitely not the kind of heartless person. Your Highness has a heart of benevolence and righteousness. You treat my subordinates like me with all sincerity. You will never kill Dongfang Jin who poses no threat to you.

Besides, you came to the imperial city this time for the sake of peace in the world, and it was a last resort to bring troops into the capital. As for you killing the prince, no, we absolutely don't believe it! "

After Vice General Wang finished speaking, the rest of the people echoed their words one after another. What they said was similar to that of Vice General Wang.

Looking at their eyes full of trust, Xiao Yening took a deep breath, and smiled,

"If you believe in me, I don't care what other people say or think."

After the words fell, Xiao Yening glanced at the angry faces of everyone, and said.

"Let's leave this matter as it is, but I'll say it up front. From now on, you won't be able to provoke troubles because of this matter. Let others say whatever they want."

After Xiao Yening's words fell, Deputy General Wang and the others were obviously a little unwilling, but they still nodded to Xiao Yening's unquestionable gaze, which should be respectful.

Seeing this, Xiao Yening changed the topic,

"When I came to the imperial city, I received the news that the Lord Xuan came to the Dayu Dynasty. I asked you to find out his whereabouts. What's the matter?"

"We received news that the Xuanzhu seemed to have appeared at Qinglan Pass seven days ago, but he only stayed for half a day before leaving suddenly. Looking at the traces, he was heading for Huaicheng, but that fellow was cunning and deceitful. Our people Follow outside the city and lose his trace!"

After finishing speaking, Vice General Wang looked resentful,

"Qinglanguan, Huaicheng... What is he going to do?"

Xiao Yening narrowed his eyes and murmured.

Seeing him meditating, everyone on the side pursed their lips and did not make a sound to disturb him. After a long time, as if thinking of something, Xiao Yening sat up straight suddenly, and said in a cold voice,

"Bring the map of the Dayu Dynasty!"

Deputy General Wang stood up in response, and put a cowhide map in front of Xiao Yening in a moment.

Xiao Yening spread out the map, and his slender fingers swayed back and forth along the criss-crossing lines on the map.

After a long time.

Xiao Yening paused with his fingers on the map, his eyes turned cold.

Everyone present here are his confidantes, who have followed him on the battlefield for many years, and seeing his expression at this moment, they knew that something happened, and it was not good.

And sure enough, without waiting for them to open their mouths to ask, Xiao Yening had already faintly said,

"He didn't go to Huai City. On the contrary, he went to Huai City just as a cover for us to see. If I'm not wrong, he should be in Luoxue Pass or Songya Pass now!"

When Xiao Yening finished speaking, everyone was shocked.

Luo Xueguan?Pine Cliff Pass?No matter where the Xuanzhu is, it is under their noses...

Thinking of the recent days when they went all over the imperial city to search for the whereabouts of the Xuanzhu, but the old gods were watching their every move right under their noses, they just felt their scalps go numb...

"Your Highness, not to mention that the second pass is a dangerous place for our army, which is a dangerous place for him. As far as the purpose is concerned, what's the use of staying at Luoxue Pass or Songya Pass?"
