In the dead of night, Wen Liunian leaned on the bed, looking as if he was thinking about something.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Yue held him in his arms.
Wen Liunian came back to his senses: "It's nothing."
"Worried about me?" Zhao Yue pinched his chin.
Wen Liunian said, "Would you like to say it?"
"About my past and life experience?" Zhao Yue asked.
Wen Liunian nodded.
"Before Mu Wanlei fell off the cliff that day, I never had any doubts about my life experience." Zhao Yue said, "Since I can remember, I have always lived with my father. He was very good to me. Many people persuaded him to continue, but they all refused, saying that my mother was the only one in my heart. Later, I went to Yinya to learn martial arts with my master, and my father even spent a lot of money to find someone from the south to buy me the Jiyue knife. "
"As for the Mujiazhuang, since when did you have a relationship?" Wen Liunian asked again.
"When I was nine years old." Zhao Yue said, "At first it was because of my business relationship, but then I don't know why, and the two sides gradually developed friendship. But thinking about it now, if there is really a problem with my background, then Mu Wanlei I'm afraid a trap has been set long ago, and everything was premeditated."
Wen Liunian looked at him and asked: "Then what about you, do you want to find out your own background?"
Zhao Yue was a little silent when he heard the words, and said after a while: "Some things may not be clear after investigation." There were consequences that even I had never thought of, and this "King of Ming Dynasty" who appeared out of nowhere seemed to confirm my premonition.
Wen Liunian put his arms around his waist, "No matter what happens, I won't let outsiders hurt you."
"Huh?" Zhao Yue was a little amused, "It seems that I should say this."
"Is there a difference?" Wen Liunian asked.
"Of course." Zhao Yue turned over and pressed on him lightly, "I want to protect you."
Wen Liunian tugged at his hair.
Zhao Yue held his wrist and pressed it against the pillow side.
The temperature of the lips was hot, from the forehead all the way to the Adam's apple, and after a while, it lingered down again, as if to brand his whole body. Wen Liunian bit his lower lip slightly, his eyes were at a loss, and his hands passed through his black hair unconsciously.
Warm and tender, the moonlight is just right.
Ten days later, Xiang Lie's troops dispatched from various places in Cang'er Prefecture arrived one after another, and almost guarded all the entrances of Cangmang Mountain. In addition, Zhao Yue was familiar with the terrain in the mountain, so most of the secret paths were blocked, even if there were occasional One or two places were slipped through the net. It is estimated that no one would dare to take the lead at such a time. It is basically equivalent to completely cutting off the connection between Cangwu Mountain and the outside world.
The people in the city were discussing a lot, and they didn't know what happened—although it was true that there were bandits in the mountains, it was too big to cause such a battle. Even if he hadn't seen any big scenes in the world, he could still guess that there must be a lot of trouble for the court to mobilize teachers and people.
The aunt in the government office was washing clothes while talking about this incident, and said that she had never seen so many officers and soldiers since she was born, and she didn't know what happened.
"Is there a monster in the Cangwu Mountain?" Fang Cui asked.
"That's right, everyone is saying that, but no one believes it." The aunt said, "Some people say that the Tiger Head Gang is not evildoers, but rebels."
"What did your lord say?" Fang Cui continued to ask.
"Your Excellency is still investigating with Commander Xiang." The aunt wiped the sweat from her brow, "Commander Xiang has a lot of background, I heard that he is someone close to the emperor, and he was also sent to Cangwu City this time, so it can be seen that things are indeed unusual. "
Fang Cui continued to bury her head in the laundry, but she couldn't help but feel a little troubled in her heart.
When she was sent out of the mountain, the only thing she had to do was to put a Gu on Zhao Yue, and then she could stop and go back. It's just that before the task is completed, Cangmang Mountain has already been blocked. I'm afraid that even if he can really plant the Gu poison on Zhao Yue, he may not be able to go back smoothly.
"Miss Fang." Auntie looked at her, "What's the matter, I've been in a trance."
"It's nothing." Fang Cui came back to her senses, "I'm thinking about what happened earlier."
"It's all over, so don't think about it anymore." The aunt said, "Now that the adults have taken you in, just let An Sheng stay here, and when you find an honest man to marry in two years, life will get better. "
Fang Cui nodded, "Yes."
After washing the clothes, my aunt went out to dry the clothes with a wooden basin. Fang Cui dropped the things in her hands, and when she looked up, she saw Zhao Yue coming in.
"Washing clothes again." Zhao Yue squatted in front of her.
The secret guard in charge of spying nodded silently, yes, because we have a lot of clothes.
Fang Cui said, "My lord, what do you want me to do?"
"It's nothing, just passing by by accident, so come and have a look." Zhao Yue said, "Are you still used to being here?"
"Hmm." Fang Cui shook off the drops of water on her hands. Since she had washed three or four pots of clothes, her hands were a little red.
Zhao Yue said, "It seems that girls shouldn't be allowed to do these rough jobs."
Fang Cui smiled, "Master, you are serious. It is a blessing to have a place to settle down and live. How dare you ask for anything else."
Zhao Yue said, "After I go back, I will suggest to the adults to see if there is anything easier to do."
Fang Cui said, "Thank you, Young Master."
"It's nothing more than a little effort." Zhao Yue stood up, "Then I'll go back first, I've been running outside, and I haven't had lunch yet."
Fang Cui called him, "If you don't dislike it, why don't I cook a bowl of noodles to pad your stomach?"
"It's not necessary." Zhao Yue said, "It's too late, and I have to go to Cangmang Mountain in the afternoon."
"Cangwu Mountain?" Fang Cui frowned slightly upon hearing this. ,
"That's right." Zhao Yue said, "The army is ready to go, this time it's not the adults, but the imperial court who wants to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits."
"..." Fang Cui wanted to ask more, but she was afraid that if she said too much, it would arouse the other party's suspicion. Just when she was hesitating, Zhao Yue had already turned around and left the courtyard.
"How is it?" Wen Liunian asked in the Shang residence.
"It looks a little flustered, but it's not too obvious." Zhao Yue said.
"That's right." The secret guard followed behind to add fuel and vinegar, "And he said that he would cook noodles for Mr. Zhao to eat." He was really afraid that the world would not be chaotic.
Wen Liunian: ...
Zhao Yue gritted his teeth and turned his head.
The dark guard quickly slid up to the roof.
"No matter what reason you use in the near future, make sure she doesn't come into contact with any outsiders." Wen Liunian said.
Zhao Yue nodded, "Leave it to me."
What Fang Cai and Fang Cui said just now is actually half-truth and half-false. Xiang Lie is indeed going to lead the army into the mountain today, but it is not really a war, but to give the opponent some deterrent effect - after all, the imperial court dispatched a large number of soldiers and horses, if it keeps besieging and not attacking like before, it will be a bit too talented. Lu Zhui and Zhao Wuyi all followed, Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan stayed in the government office, Wen Liunian was free instead, and simply strolled to Xiangfu to see Huatang to offer incense to the red-armored wolf.
"It seems to have grown up a bit." Zhao Yue tapped the red armored wolf's back armor.
"Naturally, it's good to eat with Guardian Zuo." Wen Liunian propped his cheek with one hand.
The red-armored wolf played with its tentacles against his fingers.
"Are you not afraid of bugs?" Zhao Yue asked.
As soon as the words fell, a big spider fell from the tree.
Master Wen flew into Zhao Yue's arms again.
Ahh bug!
The red armored wolf crawled over with glowing eyes, dim sum!
Zhao Yue made a decisive decision, covered Wen Liunian's eyes with one hand and hugged him, and walked to the bedroom - if he saw the red-armored wolf eating spiders with his own eyes, he might be scared out of the shadows again.
Wen Liunian repeated for the tenth time: "I must apply for a transfer to the extreme northern snowfield."
Zhao Yue said: "Okay, okay."
Wen Liunian was dissatisfied: "Perfunctory."
"Of course it's not perfunctory." Zhao Yue hugged him tightly, "I will accompany you wherever you go."
Wen Liunian grabbed a strand of his hair, raised his head and kissed it proactively.
The dark guard lamented on the roof, indulged in sensuality while everyone was away, the lord still has the potential to be a bit of a fool.
In the tiger head gang, some disciples rushed to report that the Chu army had already entered the mountain.
The man in the cloak didn't say a word, feeling a bit chilly all over his body.
The disciple knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head or speak.
"Master." Zhang Shengrui said: "Do you want to use the mourning bird to defeat the enemy?"
"It hasn't been refined yet, how do I release it?" the man in the cloak asked.
Zhang Shengrui was at a loss for words: "But other than that, there is no better way." Is it possible that he wants to watch the other party call him at the door
"How many people are there?" the cloaked man asked.
"At least there are tens of thousands." Zhang Shengrui said, "All the troops in Cang'er Prefecture and the surrounding area have been mobilized here. The imperial court seems determined to deal with us this time."
The man in the cloak sat on a chair, his eyes darkening.
"Clan leader." Zhang Shengrui said, "Although there are some things that shouldn't be asked, if there is any dispute between the clan leader and the imperial court, can you reveal one or two things? We can also take measures to deal with it." If you think about it, you can know it, and you can alarm the emperor. The matter is absolutely impossible to be a small matter - not to mention bandits, even the Southwest Holy Cult will not cause such a big trouble. The only explanation is that there is an inside story being deliberately hidden, and it is very likely to be a shocking inside story .
The man in the cloak almost crushed his fist. The only thing he could think of was his relationship with the court, but he obviously didn't do anything. Why did he startle the Chu army
"Banglord." Seeing that he was silent, Zhang Shengrui had to remind him again, "Even if we don't need to report the mourning bird, we must find another way, otherwise, even if the Chu army cannot attack for a while, we will fall into a passive position." After all, before Only the army of Fuya, the two sides can still fight, but now the other side has the army of Chu State dispatched from all over the country, and last time there were more than a dozen mourning birds in the gang, and the rest have not been fully domesticated. Head-to-head, the odds of winning are slim.
The man in the cloak stood up and strode out.
Zhang Shengrui sighed inwardly, shook his head and followed.
