The servant quickly served the tea, Mo Hong picked up the teacup, tasted it, and praised: "Well, the aroma is rich, the color is delicious and sweet, good tea, good tea." ”

Mu Feng said with a smile: "I know that adults have good tea, so I specially ordered someone to spend a lot of money to get it from the outside world." ”

Mo Hong laughed and said, "The Lord of the Wood City has a heart. ”

Mu Feng said humbly: "It's a blessing to be able to satisfy adults." ”

Mo Hong finished drinking the tea and began to get down to business: "Lord Mu City, the old man came to visit this time because he was entrusted by the Nine Emperor Princes. ”

Although Mu Feng knew it, he still pretended to be puzzled and said, "Oh, I don't know what instructions the Nine Emperor Princes have?"

Mo Hong clapped his hands, and the royal guards brought up a large gold chest, on which was carved a five-clawed golden dragon, lifelike and very majestic.

Mo Hong opened his mouth and said, "The Nine Emperor Princes ordered me to come and visit Miss Ling Aimuxi, and give her some gifts to show her a little affection. ”

Mu Feng was flattered and said: "Oh, the Nine Emperors are really polite, if you want to see the daughter, just send someone to spread the word, we will definitely rush to the imperial city as soon as possible, Lord He Lao will come in person." ”

Mo Hong said with a smile: "The old man also persuaded the Nine Emperor Princes, but he didn't want to let Ling Aizhou be tired, and he was entangled in official business, so he couldn't spare time, so he could only send the old man to express his heart." ”

Mu Feng excused himself and said: "This is really a setback, I have waited here to thank the prince for his intentions, but this gift is too valuable, we can't stand it." ”

Mo Hong shook his head and said, "Don't shirk the Lord of the Wood City, if you don't accept it, it won't be easy for me to go back." ”

Mu Feng sighed, knelt down and bowed, "Mu Feng once again bowed to the Nine Emperor Princes for their grace. ”

Mo Hong helped him up and asked, "By the way, how is Ling Ai lately? Why haven't you seen her?"

Mu Feng was shocked, looked around, and there was really no Mu Xi's figure, and hurriedly explained: "Oh, the little girl just went out, I'll call her back." ”

Mu Feng turned to Mu Li and said, "Mu Li, go find Miss!"

Mu Li hugged his fists and said, "Obey." ”

Mu Xi sat cross-legged on the ground, concentrating on cultivation, and turned a deaf ear to the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

Mu Li knocked on the door and said, "Young Master, are you there?"

Mu Xi replied in a clear voice: "I'm here, you come in." ”

Mu Li pushed the door in, and said in a little hurry: "Young master, the Nine Emperor Princes have sent someone to visit you, please go out with me to have a look." ”

Mu Xi smiled slightly and refused: "Didn't my father say that he wouldn't let me go out? ”

Mu Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and said nervously: "Young master, that's the royal family, even if there is some misunderstanding between you and the city lord, you can't put your anger on it now, and please consider the overall situation for the young master." ”

Mu Xi's face was expressionless, and he said, "You just say that I am sick and it is inconvenient to see people." ”

Mu Li smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master, you grew up watching from below, you would never be like this before." ”

Mu Xi had a bitter smile on her face, in the past, her father was not like this, he used his daughter as a political tool, and sacrificed his daughter for the so-called overall situation, such a father made her feel strange and cold.

Seeing that Mu Xi still didn't move, Mu Li was completely panicked, if the royal family knew about it, the Mu family might be over. Mu Li didn't care about anything else, he fell to his knees with a thud, and pleaded: "I beg the young master, if you don't go, I'd rather die in front of you." ”

Mu Xi was still soft-hearted after all, sighed helplessly, got up and said, "Elder Mu, get up quickly, I'll go out with you." ”

Mu Li breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, stretched out his hand and said, "Young Master, please." ”

Mu Feng in the main hall was simply anxious, Mu Li hadn't been able to bring Mu Xi over after going for so long, and he didn't know what Mu Xi was doing.

Seeing that the tea in Mohong's cup had bottomed out, a trace of displeasure appeared on his face. Mu Feng's voice trembled slightly: "Master Mo, I'll pour you another cup of tea, someone ...... come."

"No need, you don't need to drink too much good tea," Mo Hong interrupted, "Lord Mucheng, if it is inconvenient for Ling Ai to come back, you don't have to force it." ”

Mu Feng broke out in a cold sweat nervously, and promised, "Please wait, Lord Mo, the girl will be here soon." ”

Mu Feng leaned over to the side of the Mu family elder and whispered, "Go and see what's going on." ”

The elder nodded, and just as he was about to walk out of the gate, the figures of Mu Li and Mu Xi appeared in everyone's eyes.

Mu Feng took a long breath and reproached, "Xi'er, what's the matter with you? ”

Mu Li was shocked, he was afraid that Mu Xi would say something bad, so he hurriedly hinted at Mu Feng with his eyes.

Fortunately, Mu Xi still knew which was more important, and replied: "I just had something to do, and I was delayed, so I asked Lord Mo for guilt." ”

Mo Hong waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm here to see you for the Nine Emperor Princes this time, what's the trouble lately?" Just ask the old man, the old man will definitely make the decision for you." ”

Mu Xi glanced at Mu Feng, shook his head and said, "Thank you Lord Mo for your concern, everything is fine." ”

Mo Hong smiled: "You don't have to thank me, I just acted as ordered." ”

Mu Xi opened his mouth and said: "Then please also ask Lord Mo to thank the Nine Emperor Princes on my behalf after returning to the Imperial City, in addition, the Nine Emperor Princes must be entangled in official business on weekdays, so you should pay more attention to your body, Mu Xi is a civilian, and I hope that the Nine Emperor Princes will not worry about Mu Xi." ”

As soon as Mu Xi's words came out, the faces of the people present changed instantly, especially Mu Feng, whose face was so black that it was almost dripping.

Mu Li sighed in a low voice, and could only hope that Mo Hong would not hear the meaning of the words.

But who is Mo Hong? The henchman of the Nine Emperor Princes, an important minister of the royal family, how could such a shrewd person not understand Mu Xi's meaning.

Although Mo Hong was still smiling on the surface, his tone had changed slightly: "Okay, the old man must bring this from Miss Mu." Oh, there is one more thing, some time ago, the Nine Emperor Princes gave Miss Mu a book of exercises, I don't know how the young master Mu has attained?"

Mu Xi smiled slightly and replied: "Everything is going well, but the speed is a little slow, after all, it is a royal exercise, and the grade is too high, Mu Xi is a little difficult to accept." ”

Mo Hong continued: "If there is anything you don't understand, the old man was ordered by the Nine Emperor Princes to come and solve the girl's doubts. ”

Mu Feng was overjoyed suddenly, what did Mo Hong mean? He was going to personally guide Mu Xi's cultivation, if he could get the guidance of such a strong person, it would be an unavoidable opportunity for anyone. The other geniuses of the Mu family were simply envious to death, and secretly discussed below: "You said that this Mu Xi hit some kind of luck, and he was appreciated by the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

"The Nine Emperors came to deliver treasures twice in three days, and recently not only sent the exercises, but also sent a special person to teach her. ”

"If this continues, Mu Xi's strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds, and then we will not be at the same level as her. ”

Mu Xi looked up at Mo Hong, and excused himself: "Thank you, Lord Mo, this heart Mu Xi has understood, although Mu Xi's talent is dull, but fortunately, he can successfully comprehend this exercise, so he won't bother Lord Mo." ”

Mo Hong's face sank, and he said with a dry smile: "Hehe, okay, your Mu family is really a peerless genius, and you will have the opportunity to show your ambitions in the future." Do you have any other troubles besides the exercises?"

Mu Feng on the side was about to answer for her in a hurry, but Mu Xi still shook his head and said: "Lord Mo is like this, it really flatters Mu Xi, Lord Mo must have a lot of things to deal with, Mu Xi will not delay you because of himself." ”

Mu Feng clenched his fists, and his eyes were full of anger and helplessness when he looked at Mu Xi.

Mo Hong sneered and said, "It seems that Miss Mu is very understanding, okay, since you don't like the old man, the old man won't bother, Lord Mucheng, take your leave." ”

Mu Feng hurriedly said: "My lord, please stay, Ye Lingcheng is very far away from the imperial city, my lord has just arrived, I must be very tired, my next person has prepared a room and meals for you, and I also ask my lord to rest for a while, and leave another day." ”

Mo Hong waved his hand and refused: "What Ling Ai said is very true, the old man still has a lot of things to do, so he won't delay, and the Lord of Wood City should take care." ”

Mu Feng didn't dare to force him to stay, so he had to salute and say, "Mu Feng sends your lord!"

Mo Hong left the Mu family with the group of followers, and the figure quickly disappeared into the distance.

Not long after Mo Hong left, the Mu family exploded.

"What's the matter with this wood? ”

"That's right, Master Mo didn't hesitate to lower her body price to personally guide her, she is good, she doesn't appreciate it three times and twice, not to mention Lord Mo, even ordinary people can't stand this kind of anger. ”

"She doesn't really think she's a member of the Nine Emperors, does she?"

"Alas, it's her business what she does, but if she angers the royal family because of this, will we have a good life in the future?"

Mu Feng ordered loudly: "Everyone disperse, Xi'er, Mu Li, you stay, this city lord has something to say to you." ”

Everyone didn't dare to stay to watch the excitement, and turned around and left.

Soon, there were only three Mu Feng left in the huge hall, and Mu Xi looked at Mu Feng expressionlessly, guessing what he would say.

Mu Feng opened his mouth and said, "Xi'er, you'd better give me an explanation for today's matter." What the hell is going on with you, do you know that you're going to get killed by doing this?"

Mu Xi said coldly: "My daughter is just telling the truth." ”

"You...... Alas!" Mu Feng sighed heavily, and ordered: "Mu Li, go and send her to the Siguo room, let her reflect and reflect, remember, don't send her food." ”

Mu Li was embarrassed: "Lord of the city, the young master is young, I hope you can spare her this time." ”

Mu Feng said unhappily: "What's the matter, you don't listen to me anymore?"

Mu Li hurriedly apologized: "The subordinates don't dare." ”

Mu Feng snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and left.

Mu Li looked at Mu Xi with a little entanglement, and said softly: "Young master, the city lord is only temporarily angry, don't take it to heart." ”

Mu Xi shook his head with a smile and said, "Let's go." ”

Mu Li looked at Mu Xi's departing back and sighed deeply.

Mu Feng sat in the position of the city lord, holding his forehead with his hand, thinking about something, several elders of the Mu family walked in together, and saluted: "Meet the city lord." ”

Mu Feng didn't raise his head, waved his hand, and said, "I know why you are here." ”
