C2516 He Tried to Test His Words

"My duty is to protect Her Highness the Princess. As for other matters, I don't care." Huang Feng continued, "Of course, I am very sad about the death of His Royal Highness the First Prince."

Mo Lei didn't say anything. He just stared at Huang Feng, wanting to see if he was lying or not.

However, it was obvious that he had failed once again. He couldn't see anything on Huang Feng's face.

"No matter who killed our His Royal Highness the First Prince, they will have to bear the fury of our Fengjue Country. This fury isn't something an ordinary person can bear. Do you think you can bear it?" Mo Lei said.

"General Mo Lei is wrong. You have also said it. The fury of your Fengjue Country is directed at the person who killed First Prince, and you, First Prince, are not killed by me. Naturally, I don't need to bear your fury. Can I bear it or not? What's the difference?" Huang Feng said in a flat tone.

Little brat, you actually want to blow me up. You are still too tender.

Mo Lei nodded and continued, "I heard from my subordinates that there were bandits who attacked Her Highness the Princess's tent, but all of them returned with nothing. Is there such a thing?"

"There is." Huang Feng continued to say, "Speaking of this, it is your fault. Now that we have gotten out of here, our Her Highness the Princess's safety... You Fengjue Country people should be responsible for this. As a result... The bandits attacked Her Highness the Princess, but none of your men came out to protect her. Fortunately, I'm here. Otherwise, there would have been an accident for Her Highness the Princess. If that's really the case, then it would be the responsibility of the Fengjue Country. "

"This matter is indeed our fault." Mo Lei admitted his mistake very straightforwardly and continued, "However, under the siege of so many people, you were actually able to protect Her Highness the Princess safe and sound. It was admirable. "

"Ordinary, ordinary." Huang Feng cupped his hands and said.

"At that time, we, His Royal Highness the First Prince, were not very far from Her Highness the Princess's tent. I don't know if you saw who killed us, His Royal Highness the First Prince." Mo Lei continued asking.

"You are making things difficult for me." Huang Feng said, "At that time, the scene was so chaotic that there were enemies everywhere. Since your people did not appear, then I am the only one protecting Her Highness the Princess. Of course, all of his attention was on Her Highness the Princess. Regarding the things that happened in the surroundings, I am not in the mood to look."

Well, after making a detour, Huang Feng started to blame them for not being able to protect Princess Qi.

Mo Lei also saw that this Huang Feng definitely wasn't the kind of person who only had muscles. A person without brains, he wanted to get information from him. He had failed. Moreover, he could always push the blame onto ___ and the others. Although that was indeed their mistake... However... It could also be seen that Huang Feng was very smart.

Of course, this couldn't eliminate the possibility of Huang Feng being the murderer. However, Mo Lei couldn't be sure whether the murderer was the one who killed His Royal Highness the First Prince or not.

"It's getting late. Her Highness the Princess should rest early. I will take my leave now." Mo Lei couldn't find the answer he wanted here, so he decisively prepared to leave. Because, looking at Huang Feng, even if he stayed here, he would still leave. He wouldn't be able to find the answer from Huang Feng's mouth.

"Wait!" Huang Feng shouted and looked at Mo Lei. "Although it is not good to say so, it is not good. After all, your His Royal Highness the First Prince has just passed away, but I still want to ask a question. Since your His Royal Highness the First Prince is already dead, can the engagement between Her Highness the Princess and your His Royal Highness the First Prince be canceled? Can we, Her Highness the Princess, not marry into your Fengjue Country?"

"This is impossible!" Mo Lei did not even think about it and directly said, "The marriage between the two kingdoms is decided by the emperors of the two kingdoms. This matter has already been announced to the world. Then, Her Highness the Princess is a person of our Fengjue Country, even if His Royal Highness the First Prince has passed away. Therefore, Her Highness the Princess still wants to return to the country with us. "

Although she knew that this would be the result, Princess Qi's face could not help but reveal a disappointed expression. Huang Feng, on the other hand, nodded at Mo Lei without changing his expression, indicating that he understood.

Actually, what kind of decision did Mo Lei or the Fengjue Country make? To Huang Feng, it didn't have much of an impact on him. Regardless of whether they agreed to let her go or not, he would still take Princess Qi away. In fact, if they could let her go, it would be good for both sides. However, it seemed that it was impossible. If that was the case, then it was impossible. ... Huang Feng had nothing to say.

Mo Lei took his leave once again. Princess Qi had a disappointed expression on her face. Mo Lei saw it too, but he did not take it to heart. It could be said that Princess Qi was going to marry into their Fengjue Country. To Princess Qi and the Great Lu Dynasty, it was a very shameful thing. Therefore, it was normal for Princess Qi to feel conflicted in her heart.

However, although Mo Lei understood what the other party was thinking, he would not sympathize with her. This was her life, and Mo Lei, who was born in the Fengjue Country, did not take women seriously.

"It's fine. If they don't let you go, I can also take you away." After Mo Lei left, Huang Feng comforted Princess Qi.

"En." Princess Qi nodded. "But looking at him just now, he seems to be suspecting you. Maybe he will continue to investigate you in private. Will there really be nothing wrong? Mo Lei's position in the Fengjue Country is very high."

" It's fine. " Huang Feng said, "Didn't I say just now? They have no evidence, and nothing can be found out. Besides, even if they have evidence, they can't do anything to me."

Huang Feng still had this bit of confidence.

"That's good." Princess Qi nodded. Currently, she had complete trust in Huang Feng. After leaving the Imperial Palace, Huang Feng was the person she trusted the most.

On the other side, after Mo Lei left Princess Qi's tent, he said to his personal guards, "Keep an eye on that guard. I have a feeling that there is something wrong with him."

Although Huang Feng did not give himself away just now, Mo Lei relied on his instincts. He could still tell that there was something wrong with Huang Feng. However... Because Huang Feng hid himself well, he didn't see much. Now, he could only get people to keep an eye on him, hoping that he would reveal some flaws.

"Yes." The personal guard beside Mo Lei replied.

After that, Mo Lei returned to the tent and started to have a headache about how to reply to the king.1

Although the Emperor of the Fengjue Country had more than one son, Lu Yizha was only one of them. However, Lu Yizha was First Prince after all. Furthermore, he had a very high reputation in the army for many years. Furthermore, his ability was not bad. It could be seen that the Emperor was quite satisfied with him. In the end, such a thing had happened. The Emperor was furious, that was for sure. However... Would this anger burn directly on the heads of those rebel soldiers, or would it burn on his own head? It was hard to say.

Mo Lei was not afraid that he would be in any danger. After all, he was a war god level figure of the Fengjue Country. However... His Royal Highness the First Prince had died in his army after all. He would definitely take some responsibility for it. Especially now, he had yet to find the murderer. This would obviously make the king even angrier.

In addition, there was another thing that Mo Lei was worried about, which was the attack tonight.

During this period of time, they had not been attacked by the armies of the surrounding countries. However, Mo Lei knew that those people had always been there. They hadn't retreated yet, but they were waiting for an opportunity. They were constantly plotting. Before this, Mo Lei still didn't know what they were planning. However, tonight's night attack had made him understand something. It seemed like those people had been waiting for the arrival of the Rebellion Army within the Great Lu Dynasty.

If they were only facing the armies of the surrounding countries, Mo Lei still had some confidence. After all, they had already fought a battle when they were outside the pass, and the result was that they had won the battle.

However, there was a sudden change in the situation. The Rebellion Force within the Great Lu Dynasty... They had actually come to the outside of the pass and launched an attack on them. It was obvious that those people had joined forces with the armies of the surrounding countries. As for the target, it had to be on his side.

This was obviously not good news for Mo Lei. Previously, it was true that they were able to defeat the United Army from the surrounding countries outside the pass. However, neither of them had the intention to fight to the death because... They were afraid of the Great Lu Dynasty army inside the pass. And... At that time... Although they won, they only had a small advantage. They didn't have an absolute advantage.

Now, with the help of the Great Lu Dynasty, the Rebellion Army had also joined the battle. Their strength had been enhanced. Therefore, it would be very difficult for them to defeat their opponent. More importantly, they still had no idea... How many people from the Rebellion Force were there? There were already a lot of people who attacked the camp tonight. But... Obviously, they would not send out all the troops tonight.

This made Mo Lei's heart become somewhat heavy.

Mo Lei could understand the importance of this upcoming battle. After all, he had brought a lot of troops with him. If they failed, it would be a huge blow to their Fengjue Country. After that, the allied armies of the surrounding countries would never let go of this opportunity. At that time, they would definitely seize the opportunity to attack their Fengjue Country. At that time, the other side would be vigorous and their morale would be low. Furthermore, their strength would suffer a great loss, and their Fengjue Country would most likely be severely injured.

Therefore, Mo Lei had no choice but to pay attention to this upcoming battle.
