Chapter 155: The Regent Has a Beautiful Girl in His Golden House (Extra 1)
"Oh?" Xiao Chengyu curled his lips, "If that's true, then you have some brains. Come, come and watch this wonderful visual feast with me."
Tangcuo took a few steps forward, leaned on the top of the city wall, and watched every move below.
"Left Prime Minister." Tang Cuo deliberately exposed his bound hands, then placed them on the edge of the city wall, rubbing them calmly.
"Xiao Ye, this won't work. The friction speed is too slow. Can you think of a way to remove the rope from my hand?" Tang Cuo pursed his lips.
[Sorry, host, the system cannot interfere with the situation within the mission. Ono can’t help you…]
"It's okay. I can find a way myself." Tang Cuo raised his eyes and stared at the dagger in Xiao Chengyu's hand, and said, "Zuo Xiang, since you are sure of victory, I also want to stop the loss in time..."
"Ok?"
"I am willing to be a sharp blade in your hand. From today on, I will only work for you." Tang Cuo looked at him with a firm gaze.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chengyu just chuckled and said, "Tang Cuo, do you really look like a fool?"
"Left Prime Minister, don't you believe it?"
"How can I believe such a poor excuse? Besides, I have always been surrounded by talented people. Do you think you are qualified to be mine?"
"That's because the Prime Minister doesn't know my true strength yet." Tang Cuo curled the corners of his lips calmly, "I am sure I can become a sharp knife in the Prime Minister's hand."
"Real strength?" Hearing his words, Xiao Chengyu was obviously interested, "What is your real strength?"
"In that case, why not let the Prime Minister's subordinates untie my wrists first, and then tie me up after my performance. With the Prime Minister and this young man here, I'm sure I won't be able to cause any trouble." Seeing that Xiao Chengyu seemed a little shaken, Tang Cuo took advantage of the situation and pursued him.
"Don't you want to know how I managed to make Mu Hanqing care about me so much in such a short time?"
Sure enough, after hearing these words, Xiao Chengyu showed some unrest. He waved his hand, and the subordinates behind him immediately signaled, hurried forward, and untied the rope for him.
"Do you really have the ability to make someone never forget you?" Xiao Chengyu's tone was a little more inquiring: If he really has such ability, then Tang Cuo can really be used by him in the future.
In this way, he might become the most powerful figure in the dynasty, and even His Majesty would favor him.
Tang Cuo rubbed his freed hands and chuckled: No, is there really anyone who believes such a poor excuse?
"Tang Cuo, if I find out that you lied to me, I will cut you into pieces and throw you into the back mountain to feed the wolves." Xiao Chengyu stared at his figure and threatened.
Tang Cuo took a few steps back and approached the city wall. "Prime Minister, do you know why you can never be better than Mu Hanqing? Because you are too stupid to believe such a poor excuse?"
"You..." Hearing his words, Xiao Chengyu raised his finger and pointed at him, "You dare to lie to me?"
"You've already lied, how can you still say whether you dare or not?"
"Zhong Rong, catch him for me. I will break his fingers one by one to let him know the consequences of deceiving me." Xiao Chengyu clenched his fingers into fists and bit his back teeth tightly.
“Then you probably don’t have a chance.” Tang Cuo said as he stepped forward and stood on the city wall. Then he looked down and his body trembled: Oh my god, it’s so high…
"No, don't move, Your Highness." Under the city gate, Murong Yuan waved his arms anxiously, "Your Highness, go back, we will definitely find a way to rescue you. Don't get too close to the city wall, it's too dangerous..."
Murong Yuan screamed heart-wrenchingly, and even his voice gradually became hoarse.
Mu Hanqing's eyes trembled slightly. Although he didn't say anything, Tang Cuo could clearly see his mouth shape saying, "Go back..."
It seems that Mu Hanqing already knows what he is going to do.
There's no way. The time is up. I won't play with you anymore.
Tangcuo straightened his expression and said calmly, "Everyone, what is the purpose of your launching a war? You are all soldiers who have dedicated themselves to the country. You should put the lives of the people first. But because of me, I launched such a large-scale war. Don't you think you are a little unworthy of this position?"
"Your Highness, A Yuan knows he was wrong. Don't do anything stupid. A Yuan will withdraw his troops immediately and will never invade the Rong Dynasty again... please..." Murong Yuan's eyes widened and he stared at his figure.
"There's no other way. We really have to say goodbye this time." Tang Cuo lowered his eyes to look at his hands, then turned slightly, turned his back to the city wall, and looked down.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Chengyu went straight forward and wanted to grab him, but he only grabbed half of his sleeve and then flew away with the wind.
Tang Cuo's figure fell straight down like a kite with a broken string. His expression was tense, yet he looked a little excited.
Murong Yuan and Mu Hanqing immediately stretched out their hands and ran forward, eager to catch him.
"Xiao Ye, don't let them catch me." Tang Cuo said, seeming to be a little relieved.
[Okay, controlling the host's descent distance.]
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Cuo's figure fell straight in front of the two people. The huge impact made Tang Cuo spit out a mouthful of blood. "It can be regarded as a feeling of ropeless bungee jumping. This feeling of pushing back can't be achieved without a master with ten years of experience..."
[Host, do you want to look at your current situation? You still have time to joke?] Xiao Ye sighed helplessly.
Tangcuo felt his body stiffen and it seemed that he could no longer move.
In a moment, two men were kneeling beside him. Murong Yuan hurriedly wiped the blood from his mouth with his sleeve, his eyes red as if he was about to cry.
"Your Highness, it's okay... A Yuan will take you back to the court. There are very powerful doctors in the court who can definitely cure Your Highness. It's okay, it will be okay..." Murong Yuan raised his hand and wanted to pick up Tang Cuo, but was stopped by him directly.
"No need, A Yuan, I know my current situation, don't waste your energy on me, I have a few words to say to you...
A Yuan...please don't be sad about my death, and don't change your temperament because of this incident. From my impression, the A Yuan I knew was a little rebellious, but he had a kind heart.
We must work hard for the country, care for the people, not start wars at will, and take care of ourselves..."
Murong Yuan lowered his head, the pain in his heart became more intense. He grasped Tang Cuo's right hand, his palm wet with tears, "Your Highness, if you leave, no one will care about A Yuan anymore. No one will secretly bring food to A Yuan when he is hungry..."
"A Yuan... has grown up and won't... go hungry anymore..." Tang Cuo forced a smile.
"Your Highness, I will capture Xiao Chengyu for you. As long as you calm down, you will not leave A Yuan, right? I will go now, please don't leave me..." After saying that, Murong Yuan stood up and ran towards the city.
The guards at the city gate were smart enough not to stop him and let him enter the city.
