Nan Siyin suddenly became angry. Su Jingchen came over without reacting, thought for a moment, and gave Nan Siyin a piece of osmanthus cake, "Ayin, don't be angry, it's not good for your liver and kidneys."

Su Jingchen quickly added, "I'll carry you up."

Nan Siyin looked at the piece of osmanthus cake, his slender eyebrows drooped, and his voice was indifferent, "Su Jingchen, I really want to poison you to death."

Su Yanzhi saw Su Jingchen giving Nan Siyin a piece of osmanthus cake, and looked at Gu Jingxu expectantly.

The person sitting and eating noticed Su Yanzhi's gaze, sighed, and looked around in a circle. It seemed that only the osmanthus cake was left, so he gave Su Yanzhi a piece of osmanthus cake.

Su Yanzhi immediately became happy. He ate another piece of meat, and then slowly put the plate of meat in front of him. "If you don't want to eat it, then I will eat it myself."

He eats nothing else but meat.

The other three people sitting there looked at Su Yanzhi happily eating the plate of meat with shocked expressions on their faces, and they all expressed surprise.

Gu Jingxu frowned and held down Su Yanzhi's chopsticks, "Don't you feel bitter?"

"I can't taste it." Su Yanzhi replied calmly, looking at Gu Jingxu with a calm expression, "My sense of taste and smell were poisoned when I was a child."

He had forgotten when he disappeared.

Others don't ask about these things, and he doesn't mention them, so he doesn't pay much attention to them. Anyway, no matter how you live, you are still alive. The poison is very bitter. What to do if you want to taste it, but it makes you feel uncomfortable.

He couldn't taste it anymore, but he felt less uncomfortable and painful.

Gu Jingxu lowered his eyes, gave the osmanthus cake in his bowl to Su Yanzhi, and then placed the plate of meat in front of him, "Meat... is bitter, and the osmanthus cake is sweet. Eat better,

Then we go up the mountain."

Nan Siyin nodded silently, "In seven days, there will be light rain, and the poisonous fog will dissipate for a few hours, and you can leave. However, you should practice some cultivation in these few days, otherwise your body will not be able to hold on."

Gu Jingxu clenched his hands, still a little worried.

I don’t know what the southern border will be like now without Gu Qingnian’s guard and the northern border without Su Yanzhi’s suppression.

Before falling off the cliff, Su Lieyang was obviously well prepared. The first was to kill Su Yanzhi, and the second was to attack the southern border.

…

On the border between the north and the south, flames shot into the sky. In front of the city wall, stood a huge army. The army was tall and majestic. They held spears in their hands and wore armor, surrounding the ruined city wall.

Under the city wall, there were countless corpses lying in random directions. They were covered in blood, some were missing their shoulders, and some had their eyes wide open, as if they were unwilling and afraid, but they were all no longer breathing.

On top of the city wall, stood an unruly man, who was also covered in wounds.

The hair tied up with a black hairband blew up in the wind and rolled up the wound on his cheek. He held a spear in his hand and stood on the city wall, guarding the broken city gate. His handsome eyes were cold and cold.

He stared at the people below the city calmly, "Those who invade the city will die!"

Chu Muyan dragged his wounds and walked to his brother's side. He looked at the people besieging them under the city and said in a cold and tired voice, "Brother, the Southern Kingdom has not sent troops to reinforce, and we will soon be unable to hold on."

If it cannot be defended, once the city wall is broken, there will be a crack in the southern border. By then, the southern kingdom will be even more suppressed by the northern kingdom, and the northern kingdom will be able to act more unscrupulously against the southern kingdom.

Chu Muhen lowered his eyes, his hairband fluttered, and the blood on his fingertips kept dripping, "Well, I know when the southern royal family really sent troops for us. Those soldiers were the prince's personal guards before. Now.

…”

As he spoke, he looked at the wound on his hand and said, "I'm afraid our request for help has not been sent to the palace in the south."

"They all want to see us die."

If everyone in the imperial city wasn't afraid of the Chu family's three-thirds force, no one would want them to die. The civil and military officials in the court, regardless of whether they were treacherous or loyal, only saw that the Chu family was the most powerful one.

But they didn't see that only a few people from the Chu family had sacrificed their lives for the sake of the Southern Kingdom.

Chu Muyan closed his eyes and looked at the people besieging the city. Perhaps he was a little tired from the exhaustion of the past few days, and his voice was a little hurt, "Yes, they all want us dead. My uncle and father are dead. They

You still want us to die! So...do we still need to guard it?"

Before he finished speaking, Chu Muhen raised his hand and slapped Chu Muyan on the side of his face, "Muyan, what our Chu family wants to protect is not the ugliness of people's hearts, but the peace of the country and the people."

"We have to stay here and wait for His Highness to return. He will come back."

When Chu Muhen was awake, only Chu Muyan was left around. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the twelve dead men were not alone. The southern city gate was shattered, with nothing but some arrow marks on it.

He summoned the Chu family army and wanted to find him, but before he had gone a hundred miles across the border of the Northern Kingdom, the Northern Kingdom's cavalry pressed over and blocked his way.

After much consideration, he still chose to guard the border city and wait for the soldiers in the imperial city to come for reinforcements. Fortunately, there were enough ammunition and arrow feathers in the city guarded by Gu Qingnian.

He believed that His Highness the Crown Prince would not die, and he also believed that Jing Xi in the Southern Royal Family had hope, so he would not despair.

Under the city wall, Su Yanru was riding a horse with a deep smile, "Chu Muhen, how long can your Chu family army hold on? We only want this city, how about giving it to us."

"Nothing... will be given to the territory of the Southern Kingdom."

Chu Muhen stood on the city wall and spoke out unruly. Even if the army came to the city, he had no fear of giving in.

"You won't give in at all? Do you see if there are any reinforcements in the southern country? How many days have passed, but there hasn't been one, and what about us..."

Su Yanru turned around.

Among the crowd, a man slowly walked forward. He was wearing white armor, his handsome eyes were fixed on Qingyou, he was holding the reins in his hand, and his posture was tall and straight.

Fu Shiting rode his horse and stopped in front of Su Yanru, "Is this the urgent matter you told me? Let me hide Jun Lan and come here day and night."

"Just to see you approaching the city?"

The young general raised his eyes and looked at the besieged city wall in the distance, frowning slightly, "Your Majesty once ordered not to conquer the Southern Kingdom. What are you doing?"

Su Yanru raised her eyebrows, smiled darkly, and stared at Fu Shiting, "Conquer an inch of land for the Northern Kingdom, young general, why don't you rush to the city gate?"

Fu Shiting held the reins with a cold expression, "Don't order me, you are not His Majesty."

"Your Majesty is in the city. If you open the city gate, you can rescue your Majesty."

Su Lieyang rode the horse and held the reins on the other side. He glanced at Su Yanru, and then at Fu Shiting, "General, before charging into the battle, when the time comes to attack the city, the young general must be a first-class hero."

Fu Shiting held the spear and still hesitated a little. He always felt that something was wrong.

Slowly he raised his hand and ordered the generals around him, "Charge..."
