"Why do I need your guidance in what I do?" Qu Honglin's face suddenly darkened, and an extremely strong anger surged like a raging tide. His sharp eyes were like two lightning bolts, shooting straight at the two princes who wanted to plead for mercy, making them tremble all over and be completely shocked.

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came. Turning around, I saw a large group of people galloping towards this side.

The leader was Mo Yiyan. He urged his horse to rush forward like a flash of lightning, and shouted loudly: "Eighth brother, ninth brother, Yan Qing, this prince is here to save you!"

However, when Mo Yiyan's eyes fell on the two tiger corpses with their heads and bodies separated, he was dumbfounded and shocked. He couldn't even speak clearly, "This... this is..., what on earth is going on?"

He had rushed to rescue them in a hurry, and was very nervous along the way, fearing that they might meet with an accident. He never expected that the two extremely ferocious tigers were the ones in danger.

The two tigers that had been so majestic just now were now dead beyond deadness, with their bodies torn apart, a very miserable death.

"It is the Prime Minister who has come to our aid out of righteousness." Mo Zemiao on the side quickly winked at him.

Mo Yiyan suddenly woke up from his dream and noticed the handsome man standing beside him. He was startled and quickly jumped off his horse. He walked forward quickly and greeted Qu Honglin respectfully.

Unfortunately, Qu Honglin was in a bad mood at the moment, so he naturally didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Qu Qingyan knew that his father was angry, so he lowered his head and dared not say a word.

The other two princes also stood very uncomfortably, feeling very nervous.

Mo Yiyan, who was always carefree, didn't notice the tense atmosphere at all. He even stretched out his right hand, put it on the shoulder of the boy next to him, and said proudly: "Yan Qing, this prince is very loyal! This time I came here specifically to save..."

Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt a strong wind blowing.

Then, his body seemed to lose control and he retreated backwards involuntarily. He only managed to stabilize himself after retreating more than ten steps.

Mo Yiyan raised his head and saw the handsome man's angry eyes at a glance.

You know, Mo Yiyan has always been most afraid of this ruthless Prime Minister.

At this moment, he was so frightened that cold sweat broke out and his whole body was shaking like a sieve.

"You princes are still too idle. When I go back, I will definitely advise the emperor and give you some tasks." Qu Honglin's eyes swept to Mo Yiyan's right hand, a hint of murderous intent flashed quickly, he snorted coldly, turned around and left.

The intimidating feeling of oppression disappeared and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Mo Yiyan was about to say something.

Suddenly, the handsome man stopped, slowly turned around, and set his eyes on the handsome boy.

Qu Qingyan hurriedly followed.

Before they reached the large group of imperial guards, they saw two of them dismount and lead their horses over.

The father and daughter jumped onto the horse's back with swift movements, clamped their legs around the horse's belly, waved the whip, and drove the horses under their crotch to gallop away, soon disappearing from everyone's sight.

"No, how did you offend the Prime Minister? Why do you want me to be implicated by you?" Seeing that the people finally left, Mo Yiyan hurriedly asked his two brothers the reason.

Mo Zemiao looked at him helplessly and told him what had just happened.

After he finished speaking, he also said: "This time it is really thanks to Master Yan. If he hadn't led the tiger away, my eighth brother and I would have been doomed."

"We all owe Master Yan a favor." Mo Xuyao ​​was still frightened by what had just happened.

Mo Yiyan's eyes sparkled, "It turned out to be so exciting just now. If I had known, I would have stayed and let you go back to get help."

He also wanted to see with his own eyes Yan Qing fighting the tiger with his wits, and the Prime Minister chopping off the tiger's head with a sword.

"If you hadn't acted rashly, how could this have happened?" Mo Xuyao ​​thought about this matter and realized that it was all caused by him, so he scolded him with a cold face.

Mo Zemiao also looked at him with reproachful eyes.

Mo Yiyan knew he was in the wrong, so he scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I won't do it again. I didn't expect that not only did I fail to capture the tiger, but I almost lost it."

"Mr. Yan is likely to be punished by the Prime Minister." Mo Zemiao sighed. The Prime Minister was really angry just now.

Mo Xuyao ​​frowned, "We are sorry for this matter, Master Yan."

"As a prince, I am solely responsible for my own actions. Since it was me who caused the trouble, there is no reason for others to be implicated." Mo Yiyan gritted his teeth and jumped on his horse.

Mo Zemiao frowned, "Don't do anything reckless. You know the Prime Minister's temper. If you really offend him, even your father can't save you."

"Don't worry, I dare not offend the Prime Minister. I just..." Mo Yiyan said a little embarrassedly: "I will go to my father to ask for mercy and ask him to help mediate."

After saying this, he rode away.

Mo Zemiao looked at the tiger on the ground, as if the danger just now was just a false alarm.

But they knew that if it weren't for Yan Qing and Prime Minister Qu, they brothers would have been buried here today, without a trace of their bodies left.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister's abilities are truly astonishing." Mo Xuyao's gaze fell on the tiger head on the ground, his eyes full of admiration.

If he had this ability, what would he be afraid of when fighting in the battlefield in the future?

Mo Zemiao smiled and said, "Eighth Brother's wish will be fulfilled soon. When we return, we will all be students of the Prime Minister. I believe that with his teachings and guidance, we will become different."

Hearing this, Mo Xuyao's sword-like brows relaxed slightly.

No one knew how much he respected Prime Minister Qu. Even though he had a bad reputation, he was able to defend his country and his deeds were the real reason.

Over the years, everything the Prime Minister has done has been for the people. Although his methods are extremely cruel, if not, how can he deter others?

He was a competent prime minister and also a commander who fought in battles to kill enemies and defend his country.

He now also serves as the Grand Tutor, and the brothers can learn a lot of skills from him.

"Eighth brother can't wait." Mo Zemiao teased and ordered people to carry the tiger away.

The two left together.

Qu Qingyan followed his father and tried every possible means to persuade him to calm down.

"If you do it again, I will not let you off easily." Qu Honglin said the harsh words, but he was actually filled with fear in his heart.

My daughter risked her life to save others. If she had taken even a wrong step, the consequences would have been disastrous.

What's more, the people who rescued her were two men, which made the old father feel sad, fearing that his daughter had been kidnapped.

Qu Qingyan assured him: "It won't happen again. It won't happen again. It was an emergency just now and there was no other way. My daughter can't just watch the prince die in front of her eyes. It will be hard to explain to the emperor."

"No matter when or where, your own safety is the most important thing. For everything else, your father is here for you." This was the confidence Qu Honglin gave her.

Qu Qingyan nodded, "My daughter knows."

When the two returned to the camp, they saw the emperor, empress and others waiting there.

"My dear Minister Qu, what happened? Why did you leave in such a hurry?" the old emperor asked with concern.

The Queen also looked at him worriedly.

Feng Lanyue's gaze fell on the handsome young man, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes.

Qu Honglin responded briefly: "I saw the twelfth prince coming back in a panic, asking for help, claiming that the eighth and ninth princes were in danger deep in the jungle, so I immediately went to rescue them. Now the princes are safe, and I will be here soon."

Qu Qingyan also recounted what had just happened. As she spoke, she secretly looked at the people around her.

She tried to find someone who could tame the tiger.

"Come here, Lord Qu has made great contributions in saving the prince, and I reward you with ten thousand taels of gold. If you like anything among the tributes sent by other countries this time, you can take it away. In addition..." The old emperor waved his hand and rewarded many treasures.

Qu Honglin expressed his gratitude.

Everyone was no longer surprised by the old emperor's attitude. They all looked into the distance curiously, wanting to see the trophy of the tiger killed by the Prime Minister.

Sure enough, not long after, the princes returned with the spoils.

There were three huge tigers, two of which had their heads cut off, and one had its body intact but had sword marks all over its body, and its death was miserable.

When everyone saw this bloody scene, their fear of the Prime Minister increased to a higher level.

This man is so terrifying that it is really frightening.

The old emperor was very happy and praised the prime minister lavishly. He also wanted to use the tiger meat to set up a banquet to celebrate the victory.

Qu Qingyan frowned slightly.

Her father hasn't rested for two days. If he continues to hold on, it will cause great harm to his body.

Qu Honglin noticed the worry in her eyes, smiled lightly, and then bowed to the old emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I will not attend the celebration banquet. I have been tired for two days and want to go back and rest."

"Yes, yes, my dear, your health is the most important." The old emperor also thought of this and let him go back to rest.

Qu Qingyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Qu Honglin left, taking the handsome boy with him.

This again caused some people to gossip.

The stern queen's expression became increasingly unsightly.

Feng Lanyue was different from before. She generously sent a lot of supplements to the prime minister and the young man named Yan Qing.

Yun Cairou, who was standing next to her, secretly glanced at the imperial concubine and knew that the old emperor would definitely tell her Yan Qing's true identity. Although she felt a little upset, she was secretly glad.

So what if Feng Lanyue becomes a noble concubine?

As a concubine without children, her fame was destined to be short-lived.

And with the prince by her side, her future glory will be limitless.

Yun Cairou immediately gave a wink to Mo Hehe in the crowd.

Mo Yaohe was a little confused.

Yun Cairou looked displeased and gave a few instructions to the personal maid beside her.

The palace maid quietly walked up to the Third Prince and relayed Concubine Shu's words.

When Mo Yihe heard that his mother asked him to find a way to get close to the prime minister's daughter, he left obediently.

However, the direction he was heading was not towards where the prime minister was, but instead towards the residence of the sixth prince.

"Greetings, Third Prince!" The young eunuch guarding outside the tent knelt down hurriedly to greet the visitor upon seeing him.

Mo Yihe glanced across the tent and asked, "Has the Sixth Prince returned?"

"Your Highness the Third Prince, the Sixth Prince has not returned yet." The young eunuch replied respectfully.

Mo Yihe's face darkened slightly, but he smiled again in the blink of an eye, and took out a silver note from his sleeve and handed it to the young eunuch, "This is a reward from this prince to you. If you find out about any movement of the Sixth Prince in the future, come and report to this prince immediately."

"Thank you for the gift, Third Prince!" The young eunuch took the banknote with joy.

There was a hint of disdain in Mo Hehe's eyes.

The bastard Lao Liu dared to compete with him for the throne. He really overestimated his own abilities!

He wanted him to recognize his position clearly and not to think about things that did not belong to him.

After Mo Yaohe left this place, he called a few more people and gave them some instructions.

After Qu Honglin returned to his residence, he went to rest.

Because she was worried that her daughter would be willful and run away again, she ordered her subordinates to keep a close eye on her.

Qu Qingyan was helpless and knew that her father was too worried about her, so she stayed obediently in her tent.

[Host, it's too boring to stay here, let's go out for a walk.] Xiaoyaer couldn't bear to see the host resting, so he urged her to go out for a walk to trigger a new task.

Qu Qingyan lazily lay on the bed, "Didn't you see there are a lot of people guarding outside? My father will definitely not let me go out again."

[We can sneak out without being discovered by your father. Besides, your father loves you so much that even if he finds out, he will just scold you.] In the little boy's heart, the mission is more important than anything else.

Qu Qingyan snorted coldly, "You said it lightly, didn't you see how angry my father was just now? If I really listened to your nonsense, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the mansion in the future."

After saying this, she said impatiently, "Okay, stop talking nonsense. I'm going to hide in the space and have some peace and quiet."

A thought flashed through her mind and she entered the space.

There was a big time difference between inside and outside the space, so she took advantage of this and had a good sleep.

When she woke up, she used the water mirror to look outside, and seeing that no one noticed her, she didn't rush out.

After all, in this space, she is free and does not need to worry about the system spying on her inner thoughts.

Only here can she plan for her future well.

The power of this system is too strong. She is really afraid that if she is not careful, her thoughts will be exposed, thus making it alert.

By then, the dog system will definitely not let her go.

They said before that it was a soul binding, but if she died and her soul dissipated, the dog system would be able to find another master within a day and would not be affected at all.

If things really fall out, the dog system will definitely find ways to kill her and rebind her to an obedient host.

Therefore, she could not show her dissatisfaction with him, and not only that, she had to be tied to the same rope with him.

Only after getting rid of the male and female protagonists, she will find a way to deal with this dog system.

She thought for a moment, then stood up and stretched her muscles.

After two days of hunting, she realized that her mediocre martial arts skills were still too poor, and relying on others for rescue all the time was not a long-term solution.

She needs to improve her skills so that she can protect herself if she encounters danger again.
