"Come on, everyone raises their glasses and have a drink for the regent to escape from danger!"

"For the friendship between the two sides! Do it~"

In the city lord's mansion in the new city, Tuoba Si held a banquet to entertain Liu Ce and Tuoba Yuhai and his group, and summoned all the military governors and the bureaucrats of the Monroe nobles in the city to gather together, as a way to welcome Tuoba Yuhai to escape from danger, and at the same time thanked Liu Ce for help.

Wei Ji did not regard himself as an outsider at all, and took the initiative to pick up the wine bowl and ask the bureaucrats in front of each seat. For this kind of scene, he was very vivid and familiar with him.

"Father, you drink two less glasses. The wine in Zhongyuan has too much potential..."

Seeing Tuoba Yuhai drinking three bowls of hot rice wine in a row, Tuoba Xue dissuaded him with concern.

"It's okay..." Tuoba Yuhai said lightly, "I'm happy today, I'm making an exception..."

As he said that, Tuoba Yuhai raised the wine bowl and nodded slightly to Liu Ce on the other side of his seat.

Liu Ce chuckled and shook his head, raised the wine bowl and gave it back. The two of them drank the wine in the bowl at the same time, which was so unhappy...

After Tuoba Si put down the wine bowl, he wiped his mouth and bowed to Liu Ce and said, "Mr. Military Governor, you are really the benefactor of my Mengluo Empire. I really don't know how to thank you. If it weren't for you this time, I wouldn't know how to deal with this matter..."

Liu Ce smiled slightly: "City lord is polite. Since your country is in trouble, I sincerely ask this military governor for help. Based on the friendship of the alliance, how can I refuse?

What's more, the prince and the military governor fell out of the way at first sight. He was in trouble. How could the military governor sit idly? This military governor should not be allowed to... "

Tuoba Si nodded, very satisfied with Liu Ce's neither humble nor arrogant attitude. His feat this time completely overturned Tuoba Si's sense of the people of the Central Plains.

Tuoba Yuhai looked at Liu Ce, then turned his head to Tuoba Xue beside him and said, "Axue, Liu Ce is right in front of you now, you have seen it too. To be honest, what do you think of him?"

Tuoba Xue looked at Liu Ce carefully, and then hurriedly lowered her head. In fact, this action showed that she was at least not disgusted with Liu Ce.

Who would have malicious intentions towards those who rescued their relatives?

But she still couldn't let go of that childhood sweetheart man. Now she is very entangled and doesn't know what to do.

Tuoba Yuhai couldn't help but feel bright when he saw his daughter acting like this. Tuoba Xue had a good first impression of Liu Ce, which means that they might not be able to be together in the future.

But the only thing that made Tuoba Yuhai worried was how Murong Bao said before, how to prove the truth or falsehood.

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere was strong. Tuoba Si seemed to have been drunk this time. He stood up and came to Tuoba Xue and said to her drunkenly: "Axue, have you seen it? That is your future man. He has saved your father. Our Grassland God of War. Should you give him a bowl of wine to express your feelings?"

When Tuoba Xue heard this, she thought for a moment and immediately filled her cup with a glass of wine. She stood up and came to Liu Ce’s seat: “Mr. Military Governor, I toast you this glass of wine. Thank you for saving my father from the army…”

Liu Ce picked up the wine bowl and replied, "Miss Tuoba, no need to be polite. This military governor said just now that the prince is a strong man. Such a person should not be harmed by despicable and shameless means. This wine is very strong, so Miss Tuoba can drink it briefly..." After saying that, Liu Ce drank the glass of wine in one gulp.

Tuoba Xue glanced at her beautiful eyes, and she also raised her neck to pour wine into her mouth. She gave Liu Ce a thank-you gift, and then turned around and walked towards Tuoba Yuhai.

The banquet was late at night, and the palace hall was still very lively. The maids kept delivering warm wine to the guests' banquet tables, and added vegetables from time to time. In this cold winter, I couldn't feel the coldness.

Unconsciously, the topic of Tuoba Yuhai and Liu Ce gradually turned to how to deal with Murong Bao and others.

Tuoba Si picked up a bite of the dish, put down the silver chopsticks, and said to Tuoba Yuhai and Liu Ce: "Uncle Wang, Governor, I want to know, what are you going to deal with Murong Bao, the gang of rebellious people?"

Tuoba Xue was stunned when she heard this and looked at her father nervously. Deep down, he still didn't want to see Murong Bao's body and head differently.

Tuoba Yuhai smiled and said, "City Lord, the military governor is most qualified to answer this question, because he captured these rebels alive..."

Liu Ce stopped and said, "The prince is so bad. This time, this military governor is only responsible for rescuing the siege. The rest of the matter belongs to your internal affairs. Murong Bao and others are killing or releasing them. This military governor is not concerned about everything."

Of course Liu Ce is not stupid. If he intervenes in this kind of problem, he will definitely lose his demographic. No matter what Murong Bao and his friends will end up, the political purpose of going out of the border this time will inevitably be vain, which makes the grassland tribe think that it is a strong purpose.

Tuoba Yuhai nodded, and then said to Tuoba Si: "City Lord, according to my Luoluo order, rebels should be punished by the nine tribes, and all tribes will be taken back to the royal family and redistributed them. Murong Bao and Murong Chong's crimes are unforgivable!"

"Dad!" Tuoba Xue hurriedly begged to Tuoba Yuhai, "Can Murong Bao be free? He must be stupid for me..."

Tuoba Yuhai was firm in his attitude: "No matter whoever is the reason or the reason, those who dare to violate the law will be severely punished. This is the rule set by the Holy Emperor when he established the Monroe Empire, and I can't do anything about it!"

Tuoba Xuetou shook like a wave drum: "Dad, as long as you can find a way to let Murong Bao live, I promise you to marry to the Central Plains safely and never meet him in this life!"

"One code is one code, this matter cannot be compared!" Tuoba Yuhai said, "The law is like a mountain, and not anyone can provoke it. If Murong Bao made other mistakes, I may be able to find a way to save it, but do you know how serious the crime he committed is?"

Tuoba Xue's heart immediately became cold. She sat in her position blankly, looking at Tuoba Si helplessly.

Tuoba Si thought about it and said to Tuoba Yuhai: "Uncle Wang, there is a saying in the Central Plains that this method is dead and people live. Is there really no room for maneuver? For example, let Murong Bao and others make meritorious service?"

"City Lord, pay attention to your words!" Tuoba Yuhai said to Tuoba Si in a deep voice, "Do you know the matter of Shenggang Castle, how much impact and how wide it is? This is not just that I am besieged, which can be written off.

Do you know how many innocent tribes are surrounded by Xiuhong Banners that have been disasters because of them, how many men are killed by their tribes, and how many women are raped by them?

There were as many as 200 naked women found in their camp, and they all suffered great humiliation and pain in front of them. If they were not severely punished, where would the law of the Monroe Empire be in the future!"

Tuoba Si was speechless when he was scolded, so he had to glance at Liu Ce for help, hoping that he could change Tuoba Yuhai's intentions...

Little did he know that Liu Ce was extremely supportive of Tuoba Yuhai's words in his heart, so the law was naturally strict. Although he should act specially when necessary, Murong Bao and his friends would have all committed such mistakes and would have been executed on the spot in their own army.

However, he still could not interfere with the internal affairs of the Monroe people, so he could only smile and say, "City Lord, I don't know what the laws of your Monroe Empire are, and I don't have much to say. After all, this is your internal affairs. As an outsider, I have no right to interfere."

Tuoba Si shook his head in disappointment. He also understood that Murong Bao and the others were guilty of death and should have to be cut into pieces, but their tops were all the sons of the General Zhenglan Banner.

Murong Bao, Murong Shao, Murong Shen, Murong Chao, their fathers correspond to Murong Ba, Murong Ke, Murong Sheng and Murong De, and even Murong Chong had the son-in-law Murong Lian to guide him, which was extremely difficult to deal with.

"Mr. Military Governor, can you accompany your fiancée to relax?" Tuoba Xue suddenly invited Liu Ce.

This scene not only made Liu Ce a little confused, but even Tuoba Yuhai and Tuoba Si were a little incredible...

But after seeing Tuoba Xue say this, she walked straight outside the mansion. Liu Ce was too late to refuse, so he had to throw an inquiring look at Tuoba Yuhai, nodded with him, then got up and packed up his clothes and followed.

As soon as he arrived outside the office, Tuoba Xue stood in front of the watchtower, looking at the night view of the new city, and letting the cold wind blow her black hair smear.

"Miss Tuoba, you are afraid that it is for your Baolang business?"

Liu Ce pointed out directly the purpose of Tuoba Xue finding him. He didn't believe that a foreign woman whom he met for the first time would suddenly date him. After all, he never believed in love at first sight. Of course, meeting Song Yanran is an exception.

Tuoba Xue turned her back to Liu Ce and nodded, as if she had agreed to Liu Ce's words: "Mr. Military Governor is indeed meticulous. Now, I want to ask you, how can you protect Murong Bao from the disaster of killing?

As long as you can help me, I, Tuoba Xue, can hand myself over to you tonight!"

"Miss Tuoba's enthusiasm really makes me unable to resist..." Liu Ce walked to Tuoba Xue and looked at the quiet streets of Xincheng together. He had no intention of being moved by the conditions she proposed. "It's a pity that this military governor is not a reckless man with a sperm brain, and he can't get out of the way when he sees a woman."

When Tuoba Xue heard this, her pretty face turned red and she pretended to be calm and said, "The Military Supervisor is indeed as calm as the rumors. Well, what I said before was considered offending, but I still hope that you can help your fiancée, so that I can have a complete break with the past!"

Liu Ce touched his nose: "Miss Tuoba, you really stump me. Have you ever heard of your fiancé helping his fiancée to save his rival? You should know that such a plot is just a trick of cheating people in the book."

Tuoba Xue clenched her pink fist, felt the momentum of the man around her, took a deep breath and said, "I know, this request is a bit too much, but I have no other way to find you now. If you don't want to help me, I won't force it, sorry..."

After saying that, Tuoba Xue turned around and was about to leave.

"Actually, you don't have to worry about it. Your elder brother said that the law is dead..." Liu Ce called Tuoba Xue and turned to her and said, "But people live. If this military governor is not wrong, your Murong Bao should not have any worries about his life..."

When Tuoba heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward and said to Liu Ce: "What did you say? Is it true? Murong Bao won't have any trouble? But his father said..."

"You just go back and tell your father that since it is the Law of Monroe, you should leave it to your Holy Emperor to personally take over. The rest will be handled by your Holy Emperor..."

Liu Ce left a sentence, regardless of Tuoba Xue's questionable eyes, and continued to turn around and look at the quiet street, but he silently said in his heart: "This city belongs to me sooner or later..."
