Tantai Jin was in a good mood when he heard the maid said that you brought it to him specially.

Pretending to be pitiful really works, and you start to care about his diet and daily life.

It seems that sometimes you can get what you want by showing weakness appropriately.

"Qing He really does love me." The foolish man smiled.

Ji Ye "..." made him sick.

Now Ji Ye finally knew why Qinghe had made friends with a God of War from the Shangqing Divine Realm.

It turned out that he was pretending to be weak and pitiful to be miserable, which really made him feel ashamed.

He also didn't expect that the mighty God of War would be like this in private. Sure enough, the gods of the Qing Dynasty were all a bunch of sanctimonious hypocrites.

What's damning is that his little fox still does Ming Ye's trick, which makes him angry to death.

Doesn't he pretend to be weak to gain sympathy? That was because Ji Ye didn't bother to pretend, but now Tantai Jin, you want to play like this, right? Okay, wait until I condense the human form, and I'll beat you up first!

Tantai Jin received your heart-warming soup late at night, and felt extremely happy physically and mentally. He was even motivated to approve the zhezi. After a while, the zhezi that piled up into a small mountain were approved and put aside.

Thinking about tomorrow's date, he went back to his bedroom to rest.

at the same time

Across the Mo River, the Shengguo army garrison————

"Your Highness, the current situation is that we can't attack, and neither can Jing Bing."

"I don't know how long this stalemate will last."

Hearing this, Xiao Lin had mixed emotions in his eyes and spoke slowly.

"you are wrong."

After saying these three words, he turned and looked at the terrain map behind him.

"It's true that we can't defeat him, but it's false that Tantai Jin can't be defeated."

The man didn't understand what profound questions their highness was talking about, so he asked Xiao Lin to express his meaning more straightforwardly.

"Please make it clear, Your Highness."

Xiao Lin paced with his hands behind his back.

"Jiaguan is a natural barrier and is only twenty miles away from the Mo River. Even if our army successfully crosses the Mo River."

"It is not enough to break through Jingguo's coastal defense line."

"Before the army that crosses the river has time to rest, it will be pushed back into the river by the Jingguo army that pours out of Jia Pass."

Hearing Xiao Lin say this, he understood that this was an unwinnable battle.

"But His Majesty has issued an imperial edict that we are not allowed to retreat. Then according to what you said, we have to cross the Mo River and attack Jiaguan directly to have any chance of winning. Then, how is this possible?" He was so anxious that he didn't even say the honorific. , left directly.

"Our troops can't keep up with supplies, and his physical strength can't keep up either." He was so anxious that his hands were gesticulating in mid-air.

Xiao Lin just listened to him without saying a word, because what he said was true. He didn't speak until he finished speaking.

"It was only after Tantai Jin saw this that he felt at ease and returned to the capital." When he said the last few words, he looked at the subordinate who had just spoken.

"This is his way of luring the enemy into retreating. He is waiting for us to become unable to sit still and take the initiative to attack."

As soon as he said this, his subordinate became even more anxious.

"Then what should we do?"

Xiao Lin raised his head, looked away from the terrain map, and said the solution.

"There are three ways at the moment. One is to send troops to negotiate peace and stop losses in time."

As soon as he said the first point, the subordinate spoke.

"Your Highness, this is absolutely impossible. Your Majesty will not agree to it."

Xiao Lin did not reply to his words and continued talking.

"Second, wait until the Mo River is frozen in winter and the losses across the river are minimal before we attack. But... this will take several months."

"What about third place?"

Pick up the pole next to the topographic map and point it to the Mo River.

"Third, pretend to be a confrontation in Mohe, send troops to open up other routes and find other breakthroughs."

"But fighting on multiple fronts requires the cooperation of the generals from North Korea and China, and I cannot do it alone."

What this means is that it requires the cooperation of many people, and there are currently no people around who can cooperate.

"Your Highness, most of the meritorious generals in the court were sentenced to death for no reason, and the rest resigned and lived in seclusion. Even General Ye..." He spread his hands as if he had nothing to do.

"There are no generals available in this court, so we can only stand still and wait for the Mo River to freeze."

"But His Majesty is suspicious by nature, how can he tolerate us not moving."

"Boom!" With a sound, the pole in Xiao Lin's hand fell on the terrain map and made a sound. He turned his back with a complicated look in his eyes and remained silent at his subordinate's words.

On a road not far from the military camp, a whistle lurking in the grass on the roadside heard the sound of horse hooves, and when he poked his head out, he discovered that the person wearing the uniform of Jing Guo Yue's Shadow Guard was wearing it.

"Jingguo Yueyingwei? What are you doing here?" I didn't know what the other party was doing here late at night, so I whispered in a low voice and looked at my colleagues beside me to signal for action.

When the man wearing the Moon Shadow Guard costume was riding past the trap, he tripped and fell to the ground, causing dust to spread all over the ground.

Several secret sentries came forward to support and escort the Moon Shadow Guard back to the camp.

………………

Jingwang Palace——

After Nian Baiyu got the news, he immediately opened the palace door and walked to Tantai Jin's desk, half-kneeling with his hands clasped in fists to report.

"Your Majesty, it's done."

"The secret message has been intercepted by Shengguo's secret sentry, and my subordinates will send people to keep an eye on Shengdu's movements."

This news was expected by Tantai Jin, so he didn't feel any emotion and just asked.

"How is the Moon Shadow Guard doing the work?"

"I escaped back and suffered some injuries, but fortunately my life is safe."

"Okay, a big reward, two levels up." Nian Baiyu's attitude of never being stingy with rewards made him admire him even more.

"Yes!"

"You go out first."

Nian Baiyu, who had just walked to the door after taking the order, bumped into you who came in.

"Your Highness, I take my leave." He nodded and saluted you. You nodded and accepted his salute, then walked to the desk and asked.

"What's the matter with you sending someone to call me? Isn't it time to go out to the palace for shopping in the afternoon?"

Tantai Jin casually put down the folded book he had seen in his hand, and twitched his finger at you to signal you to come forward.

You walked over and sat next to him suspiciously.

Then you saw Tantai Jin reaching out and conjuring a box and handing it to you.

You reached out to take it and looked at the shape of the box curiously. After opening it, you saw a beautifully carved black jade pendant lying in the box.

"Is the shape of this jade pendant engraved with a dragon?" You guessed as you looked at Tantai Jin beside you.

"Ahem...this is not an ordinary jade pendant, this is a meteorite falling from the sky." He coughed covertly with a reddish face.

"It was picked up by the herdsmen in the north and donated to me. I divided it into two pieces and carved them into two jade pendants: a fox and a dragon. You and I each have half of them, and together we make a pair." Good guy, this is It is hinting that the fox and the dragon are made for each other.

You pick up the jade pendant in the shape of a dragon and look at it carefully. You find that there is also the word "Jin" engraved on it. Good guy, isn't the jade pendant in Tantai Jin's hand engraved with the word "He"?

A pair of jade pendants were specially carved from meteorites from the sky. Could this be considered a token of love?
