But at this moment, Mu Qingge suddenly appeared in front of her, making her eyes light up, and she immediately shouted: "Brother Mu, are you back?" This voice was absolutely sincere.
Mu Qingge glanced at her fondly and said to Mu Lianrong, "Auntie, I have something to tell you."
Mu Lianrong's eyebrows were also a little heavy. She seemed to have something to talk to Mu Qingge. Therefore, she told Bai Xiyue: "Xiyue, please go back first."
Mu Lianrong was at the pinnacle of the Green Realm, and Bai Xiyue did not dare to eavesdrop outside the door.
If she is caught, I'm afraid she won't be able to stay in Mu Mansion. How can she help King Rui
Gritting her teeth, Bai Xiyue left unwillingly.
However, when she left, she left behind a treasure she got from Prince Rui.
According to King Rui, this treasure is unique in the world and was left by an immortal. Being able to eavesdrop on anyone's conversation, even the top masters in the Purple Realm cannot detect it.
Prince Rui gave it to her just so that he could find out some secrets about Mu Mansion.
After quietly placing one of the thumb-sized pieces of jade in the hall, Bai Xiyue hurriedly returned to the room with the other piece of jade.
After a while, the luster on the jade suddenly dimmed and brightened, and immediately there was a voice.
In the main hall, Mu Lianrong and Mu Qingge never expected that Bai Xiyue would have such a treasure in her hands. At this moment, their attention was all on Mu Xiong.
"Aunt, where has grandpa gone?" Mu Qingge asked bluntly.
Mu Lianrong patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Your grandfather is fine, but there is a tide of beasts in the Qinling Mountains. The emperor sent him to command the Mu army stationed there to resist."
Beast tide
This was the first time Mu Qingge heard such a name.
But she knew about Qinling. When she read the land annals of the Qin State, she knew that there was a Qinling Mountains on the northwest border of the Qin State, which was a small part of the Wanlei Mountains that ran through the Linchuan continent. In the Qinling Mountains, there is a world of wild beasts and spiritual beasts.
However, conflicts between humans and animals rarely break out.
What's going on with this beast tide
"Why did the beast tide suddenly appear?" Mu Qingge asked calmly.
Mu Lianrong was also puzzled and slowly shook her head. She looked a little tired: "The reason is unknown. Generally speaking, there will be a beast tide only once every two years, and it is not large in scale. You don't need your grandfather. Let's stay here." The garrison in Yicheng is enough to deal with it. This time, there is indeed something fishy. However, I have been running around looking for clues these past few days but found nothing."
It turns out that Mu Lianrong's whereabouts have been unknown these days because he is investigating the details behind the incident.
Mu Qingge understood.
But he also heard the worry in Mu Lianrong's tone. Her eyes flashed and she said: "What is aunt worried about?"
Mu Lianrong narrowed her eyes and frowned: "When your grandfather left, he said that I should pay close attention to the developments in Yicheng. Once bad news comes, don't hesitate to take you out of the city immediately. The tens of thousands of troops outside are left to protect you. Perhaps, he also sensed something unusual about it."
Mu Qingge's heart trembled.
She didn't expect that Mu Xiong was still worried about his safety when he left and made appropriate arrangements.
However, his arrangement also exposed the fragility of Mu Mansion. Mu Mansion, which is as strong as fine steel in the hearts of the people, will fall apart once it loses Mu Xiong, leaving no resistance.
Mu Qingge's eyes were slightly cold and she asked: "Aunt, how many days has it been since grandpa left? Has there been any news?"
"Your grandfather has been away for five days and should have arrived in Yicheng, but strangely no news has been sent back." Mu Lianrong sighed. The lack of news was what worried her.
