Xuan Cheng wanted to ask what happened to Liu Guan and Jin Chang in the end, whether they escaped or what the situation was, but after seeing that He Xian learned that the contract on Mu Zhi's body was still there, his mood became a little bad, so he suppressed the words.

He Xian stayed for a long time and left.

Jin Mingge's men had already arranged a room for him, and after he entered, he dealt with a few wounds on his body, and after changing his clothes, he immediately asked people to call the steward of Jin Mingge, and after some instructions, he left Jin Mingge and went to the palace.

There was a big battle last night, although the result was okay, but the emperor's side still has to give an explanation.

Not long after he left, Shen Muzhi woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes and looked at the misty sunlight that penetrated through the window paper, Shen Muzhi suddenly felt a little unable to come back to his senses.

It wasn't until Xuan Cheng's voice sounded that he woke up from this confused state, and the memories of last night poured in like a tide, but in the end, whether the second prince died or not, he didn't remember.

Thinking of this, his brows suddenly furrowed, and his heart also twitched.

On the side, Xuan Cheng saw that he didn't respond, and couldn't help but sink in his heart, could it be that he was too seriously injured and left some sequelae, right? At that moment, he hurriedly reached out and grabbed his wrist, ready to pinch his pulse to see what his situation was.

At this moment, Shen Muzhi's eyes trembled, and he finally responded, "Is the second prince dead?" The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and as soon as he finished saying this, people were a little out of breath. Obviously, although people are awake, they are still very empty.

Xuan Cheng watched Shen Muyi wake up and worry about the life and death of the second prince, a little helpless and a little dissatisfied, after glaring at him, he said angrily, "Don't worry, the person is dead!

When Shen Mu heard this, the nervous look in his eyes suddenly dispersed.

Immediately, he looked at Xuan Cheng and wanted to speak, but Xuan Cheng stopped him angrily, "Stop talking, your body is too weak, let's hurry up and recuperate, I'll get you something to eat." As he spoke, he got up, and before leaving, he told Shen Muzhi in a deep voice, "Don't get up! After saying that, he hurried out.

Shen Muzhi didn't know how to get up, mainly because he didn't have the strength to get up.

As Xuan Cheng said, he is too empty.

And the reason why this is the case, in addition to last night's injury, is also related to what happened these days.

At the beginning, he was injured and taken away by Liu Guan outside Anding City, and was locked up for a few days, without eating or drinking, and when He Xian found him, he was actually in a very weak state, if it wasn't for a trace of obsession to support, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on at that time.

Later, Xuan Cheng fed him medicine and helped to comb his body with aura, although it made him feel better at that time, but it was only better, and he could barely hold on to the family banquet. chased and killed the second prince later, and he was actually holding his breath and gritting his teeth to support him all the way. In the end, when he found the second prince, he was actually running out of oil, and the reason why he was able to kill the second prince and the assassin in the end was mostly due to luck, except for obsession.

And after killing someone at that time, his heart was relieved, and the breath he had been holding was suddenly relaxed. As soon as this breath was relieved, the person would immediately be unable to do it, and if Xuan Cheng was a little late at that time, he probably wouldn't be able to save it.

Therefore, it is already great luck that he can wake up alive at this time.

Next, he estimated that he would have to take care of it for a while before he could completely recuperate his body.

It's just that although the second prince died, those things didn't end there.

He already knew that the eldest brother was still alive, and the people who Xuan Cheng helped settle down should not worry about the safety for the time being, presumably when the capital stabilized, Su Jiang would send someone to send the eldest brother back.

But what about the father?

Is he alive?

and in the Shen Mansion, the inner ghost who helped outsiders frame him and frame his eldest brother has not yet been found. This matter, at that time, my father and they also investigated, but they have never found out what the clue is, and now that so much time has passed, it may not be easy to find it out again.

Naturally, there are also green fruits......

As soon as he thought of Qingguo, a dull pain came out of Shen Muzhi's heart.

From the time he met Qingguo in Worm Mountain to the present, all the time has brought her only a burden.

So far, what he is most sorry for is Qingguo.

But in the end, he couldn't do anything for Qingguo, he could only watch her being taken away by Liu Guan.

This feeling of powerlessness almost tore him apart.

The door creaked open, and Xuan Cheng took the food and walked in from outside the door.

Walking to the side of the bed, he saw Shen Muzhi with his eyes closed, but his face was full of grief, and after being stunned for a moment, he sighed lowly. Then, as if he didn't know anything, he calmly said, "Let's eat." ”

Shen Muzhi secretly forcibly suppressed the grief that kept surging in his heart like a wave, and then opened his eyes.

Xuan Cheng held the bowl, took the spoon, stirred the rice porridge in the bowl, scooped a spoonful, and handed it to Shen Muzhi's mouth. Seeing that the spoon was about to be handed to his mouth, he suddenly retracted it again, and after blowing the porridge in the spoon a little awkwardly, he handed it over again after making sure that it was not hot.

Shen Muzhi looked at this scene, his face couldn't help but be full of embarrassment, and he was just about to say that he would come by himself, but before the words could be spoken, he heard Xuan Cheng snort and said, "Hurry up! If it weren't for your pity, do you think I would be willing to serve you like this?"

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he had no choice but to swallow back the words that came to his mouth, opened his mouth obediently, and fed the porridge in the spoon to his mouth by Xuan Cheng.

After a while, half a bowl of warm rice porridge brought by Xuan Cheng was served, and Shen Muzhi's spirit seemed to be slightly better.

After feeling better, Shen Muzhi wanted to ask Xuan Cheng something. He had a lot of questions on his mind. But before the words could be spoken, Xuan Cheng suddenly got up and said, "You have a good rest, I'll go out." ”

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he had no choice but to give up again.

After Xuan Cheng left, Shen Mu was left in the room, and after thinking about it for a while, he fell asleep again.

At this time, the hour is approaching.

After Shen Muye went around nowhere, he hurried back to the Shen Mansion, and the look between his eyebrows and eyes was more solemn than when he went.

After returning, he went straight to the courtyard where the second wife, who was his biological mother, lived.

After staying in it for a long time, he came out again. When he came out, his face had returned to calm, but if he looked closely, he could always see a faint hint of anxiety in his eyes.

I didn't go far from the yard when I ran into Uncle Lian.

After Shen Muye said hello to Uncle Lian, he was about to leave in a hurry, but Uncle Lian suddenly stopped him.

"Something?" Shen Muye turned his head to look at Uncle Lian and asked.

Uncle Lian nodded and said, "The eldest young master is almost here, and the old slave wants to go out of the city to meet him." ”

Shen Muye was stunned when he heard this, and immediately said, "I'll go with you." ”

"It's fine. Uncle Lian immediately responded, "Then I'll call someone to prepare the car." ”

"The car is too slow, let's ride a horse. Shen Muye said again, there was really a bit of anxiety on his face.

Uncle Lian glanced at him, bowed his head and went to the front yard first.

Shen Muye stood in place and did not move. looked at the back of Uncle Lian who was walking away quickly, his expression was full of complexity, and there was a faint sense of guilt and grief.

After a long time, he took a step and walked to the front yard.

At this moment, less than five miles outside the city, there were several guards with knives escorting a carriage, slowly heading towards Jinling City.

When he was about to reach the gate of the city, suddenly two fast horses came out of the city and galloped towards the carriage.

In a few moments, we were in front of the carriage.

Both sides stopped almost simultaneously. The guards with knives beside the carriage had been about to draw their swords, but after seeing the faces of the people who came, they took their hands back.

Uncle Lian looked at the guards led by him, and asked anxiously, "Come all the way, are you okay?"

The guard nodded and replied, "It's all right." ”

Shen Muye heard this, and said to Uncle Lian, "I'll go see my eldest brother." With that, he jumped into the carriage and went into the carriage.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed open the carriage door and saw the situation inside, he was immediately stunned.

In the carriage, a man was lying there, wrapped in a quilt. The pale and thin cheeks were none other than Shen Muping, who had not been seen for a long time. It's just that whether it is the stove burning in the carriage or the slightly undulating chest under the quilt, they are telling Shen Muye that this is a living person, not a corpse.

Didn't Uncle Lian and that Taoist chief say that he was dead?

Why, what he sees now, is alive?

Just when Shen Muye didn't react to what was going on for a while, Shen Muping, who was lying there, suddenly opened his eyes.

As soon as his eyes rolled, his gaze fell on Shen Muye at the door of the carriage.

Seeing his look of surprise and confusion, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. Then he smiled weakly and shouted softly, "Second brother." ”

Shen Muye was called back to his senses by this second brother, and he hurriedly sorted out the expression on his face at the moment, showing a look of surprise, and said, "Big brother, you are still alive! Great!" As he spoke, he turned around and loudly ordered the coachman and Uncle Lian outside to hurry home. After finishing the order, he turned his head to look at Shen Muping again, and said, "Auntie will be very happy to see you come back!"

Shen Muping smiled slightly, and asked him instead, "How are you doing at home?"

Shen Muye was in a trance, and only after hearing the voice did he react and replied, "It's all okay, but the eldest mother is worried about you and her father, and her health is not good these days." However, big brother, you are back, and the eldest mother's body will definitely get better soon. ”

"During this time, the family has worked hard for you. Shen Muping looked at him and said again.

Shen Muye lowered his head to avoid his gaze, and replied in a low voice, "Big brother, what are you talking about, the most useless person in the family is me." ”

"How can it be!!, the family will have to rely on you in the future!" Shen Muping said again.

Shen Muye listened to this, and his heart was slightly relieved, as if the eldest brother didn't know anything yet. It's just that when I thought about it, Uncle Lian told the Taoist chief that his eldest brother was dead, but now he appeared in front of him alive, is this their deliberate deception? Or did they also make a mistake? Thinking about it, the heart that had just been relieved was a little heavier.
