Chapter 478

Seeing Ning Zhuo's reaction, Liu Er felt very satisfied in his heart, secretly thinking: "Sure enough, I have seen through Ning Zhuo, this young master of a great family. These words have also stirred up his righteous indignation and sense of justice!"

Ning Zhuo clenched his fists and immediately planned for Liu Er: "If the General wants to seek the hand of General Mu Lan, he will inevitably have to face Sun Gan and Shuang Jing."

"In that case, the Three Generals Camp will likely suffer difficulties and suppression."

"That is not even the worst part."

"Once our army marches to the front line, Sun Gan and Shuang Jing's status will be much higher than ours; they will likely find ways from the upper levels to give us military orders that are hard to disobey but extremely arduous!"

"There are also Generals Generals Generals Guan Hong and Zhang Hei, who are also very disgusted and resentful of the Red Flower Camp throwing the enemy to our side before."

Liu Er immediately waved his hand: "I will handle Second Brother and Third Brother."

"Even if I have to face Shuang Jing and Sun Gan, I will fight!"

Ning Zhuo felt slightly surprised; he felt Liu Er's confidence, which made him suspicious.

"I didn't expect Liu Er to also pursue Mu Lan."

"What love at first sight, what feelings of admiration, tell that to the ghosts!"

"He must be wanting to lay his hands on the General-in-Chief's seal!"

"It's just that his confidence is quite abundant; why? What kind of trump card does he possess?"

Ning Zhuo's thoughts wandered, thinking deeper and deeper.

He even thought that the reason Liu Er participated in the war at this time and formed an army was likely that, besides making a name for himself, he had another main goal: to get close to Mu Lan.

"Liu Er has a trump card. If he was aiming to get close to Mu Lan from the beginning, there must be a force behind him, and this force is not simple."

"I didn't have a secret talk with Zhang Zhang Zhongyi for long before Liu Er knew about it. Perhaps the military camp is not safe; does Liu Er possess some kind of ability to obtain information?"

After discussing with Liu Er for a while, Ning Zhuo shouldered the mission of representing Liu Er to express his feelings to Mu Lan's side.

Because the situation was tense, Liu Er worried that Mu Lan might be forced by pressure to agree to Shuang Jing or Sun Gan, so Liu Er urged Ning Zhuo to act as soon as possible.

Ning Zhuo then left the Three Generals Camp and headed to the Red Flower Camp.

The situation was becoming complicated.

Not just Ning Zhuo himself, but even Sun Gan, Shuang Jing, and even Liu Er were plotting for the General-in-Chief's seal.

"But there is a key problem here—"

"Even if one cultivates together with Mu Lan and obtains the status of a Daoist companion, it does not mean a marriage contract, let alone the General-in-Chief's seal."

"Even Mu Lan herself, as the sole heir to the General-in-Chief's mansion, does not hold the General-in-Chief's seal."

It was precisely because of this point that Ning Zhuo refused Zhang Zhang Zhongyi's proposal for dual cultivation.

If he had taken the opportunity to propose the status of a Daoist companion at that time, it would inevitably have aroused the resentment of Zhang Zhang Zhongyi and Mu Lan, who would think he was a villain taking advantage of someone's predicament.

"Therefore, this matter cannot be rushed."

"Shuang Jing, Sun Gan, and Liu Er cannot be unaware of the difference between dual cultivation and the General-in-Chief's seal. But they still did it, which can only mean they have subsequent means to use this relationship with Mu Lan to further obtain the official position they want!"

While pondering, Ning Zhuo sent a flying letter to Zhang Zhang Zhongyi.

Zhang Zhang Zhongyi received the letter and welcomed Ning Zhuo into the military camp.

This time, he saw Mu Lan directly in Zhang Zhang Zhongyi's tent.

Mu Lan was healing her wounds.

She looked at Ning Zhuo: "The family's secret technique indeed cannot be leaked at will. But if you dual cultivate with me and have the status of a Daoist companion, this clause will not be effective."

Ning Zhuo shook his head: "I have already explained this matter clearly to Lord Zhang." "Without trust, a person cannot stand."

"And General Mu Lan is working hard for the General-in-Chief's mansion, and I am also working hard for my Ning family. General Mu Lan should be able to empathize with my determination."

Mu Lan sneered.

Annoyance gradually grew in her heart.

Her appearance was absolutely not bad, and she came from the General-in-Chief's mansion; she was also at the Jin Dan cultivation level, a tiger daughter of a military family, yet she had to ask a strange man to dual cultivate, and she had invited him time and again, only to be refused by the other party!

This was a situation she had never imagined.

Mu Lan looked at Ning Zhuo expressionlessly: "Young Master Ning, can your noble family compare with my General-in-Chief's mansion?"

"If you form a Daoist partnership with me, you can move the Ning family to the Two-Note Kingdom."

"I believe that with the status of my General-in-Chief's mansion, it will inevitably bring more development convenience to your Ning family."

"Instead of marrying a daughter of the Zhu family's royal clan, it is better to get on the big ship of the General-in-Chief's mansion. The gap between the two is very obvious, right?"

Ning Zhuo shook his head: "General Mu Lan, that is where you are wrong!"

"No matter how small the Ning family is, it is the place that gave birth to me and raised me."

"The vision and experience of our ancestors are richer than mine, and the decision to migrate to the South Bean Kingdom was not just the intention of our family's Jin Dan ancestor alone."

"When they passed through the Two-Note Kingdom back then, they must have had many considerations before deciding to migrate to the South Bean Kingdom."

"Now, the Ning family has already gained a firm foothold in Fire Persimmon Immortal City, and the development momentum is excellent. How can I, because of my personal reasons, implicate the family to migrate again and destroy the good development momentum of the family?"

"If I really did that, how could I face the relatives of our clan who died during the migration, and the relatives who are struggling hard in Fire Persimmon Immortal City?"

Ning Zhuo shook his head: "I would have no face to face them!"

Mu Lan fell into silence.

Zhang Zhang Zhongyi looked at Ning Zhuo with increasing appreciation and praised him sincerely: "Young Master Ning is truly a dragon and phoenix among men, a sincere gentleman, and loyal and filial!"

Ning Zhuo bowed: "Lord Zhang praises me too much. The junior came here this time with an order."

"Actually, our Lord Liu, the very first time he saw General Mu Lan, he..."

Ning Zhuo brought Liu Er's rhetoric to Mu Lan and Zhang Zhang Zhongyi.

Mu Lan and Zhang Zhang Zhongyi looked at each other.

Zhang Zhang Zhongyi's expression was complex, and he fell into silence.

Mu Lan sneered and said: "I didn't expect that once I, Mu Lan, was defeated, I would be so lonely that the entire General-in-Chief's mansion would be looked down upon by others. And now, a mere human-demon hybrid dares to plot for the General-in-Chief's seal!"

Ning Zhuo quickly indicated that General Mu Lan had misunderstood. General Liu Er was indeed sincere, and at the present moment, he could definitely be considered an excellent choice.

These words made Mu Lan fall into silence.

According to her personality, she would naturally never submit to Sun Gan or Shuang Jing. Otherwise, it would be more straightforward to just kill her.

And Mu Lan's injuries had not yet recovered, her personal combat power had fallen to the bottom, and the Red Flower Camp itself was unable to protect itself, unable to provide assistance.

The military pay was gradually bottoming out; whether it was Mu Lan or this army, they were all being pushed to the cliff, and one step further was the abyss!

Starting from Mu Lan's inner feelings, Liu Er was indeed more pleasing to the eye than Sun Gan or Shuang Jing.

And more pleasing to the eye than these three people was Ning Zhuo!

Regrettably, Ning Zhuo did not have thoughts in this regard.

Mu Lan was not a person who gave up easily; she stared at Ning Zhuo's eyes, raised her head slightly, and her tone was tough and domineering: "I would rather dual cultivate with you! Whatever conditions you want, just propose them. My General-in-Chief's mansion still has its own foundation."
