Chapter 260: The Young Emperor
Mu Chen looked at Hua Qing and then glanced at Xiao Fengyin.
Xiao Fengyin was just a child, he was expressionless, looking at Mu Chen coldly.
Mu Chen saw hostility in his eyes.
He didn't know why such a young child had such a look in his eyes, what was this child thinking?
Mu Chen said, "Why are you here? Do you know Bian Xiaofeng?"
Hua Qing said, "You also know Bian Xiaofeng?"
Mu Chen said, "Have you seen him?"
Hua Qing said, "It was he who rescued us from the palace"
Mu Chen said, "Then where did he go now?"
Hua Qing said, "He said that he had something to find out and had to go back"
— and then he never came back.
Even if you don't make it clear, Mu Chen should understand it.
Bai Chutian said: "Didn't the head of the Bian sect be kidnapped by Li Yanguang, why did he rescue you again?"
Hua Qing said, "I don't know about this, but there is one person who must know"
Mu Chen said, "Who?"
"Me"
The door was pushed open, and a man walked in, she didn't walk fast, but her steps were in a hurry.
Mu Chen exclaimed, "Brother and sister?"
The person who came was Xi Mengchu, Bian Xiaofeng's wife.
This must be the only thing she knows best.
Xi Mengchu was struggling to walk, his face was pale, and he was carrying a pack of medicine in his hand.
A few more steps, and she couldn't stand still.
Mu Chen hurriedly helped her to the bed and said, "Are you injured?"
Xi Mengchu nodded effortlessly.
Mu Chen said, "Who hurt you?"
Xi Mengchu said, "I don't know"
Mu Chen said, "You don't know?"
Xi Mengchu said, "I didn't see his face, he was a masked person"
Mu Chen said, "The man in the mask, what the hell is going on?"
Mu Chen was very anxious in his heart, but on the surface, he seemed unhurried.
He knew that Xi Mengchu's injuries were very serious and he had to take his time.
Xi Mengchu breathed a few breaths of relief, and then said slowly, "A few months ago, Li Yanguang and the head of the Qingcheng faction fought a decisive battle on the top of Huashan, originally Huashan was not allowed to outsiders to enter at will, but Xiaofeng agreed to a decisive battle in Huashan in order to give face to the Qingcheng faction."
Mu Chen said, "And then?"
Xi Mengchu said, "Later, Li Yanguang won, and this matter should be over, but I didn't expect Li Yanguang to come prepared, he gathered his disciples to gather at the foot of Huashan, and attacked us at night in response to foreign cooperation."
Mu Chen said, "So you were caught by him?"
Bai Chutian said, "The swordsmanship of the head of the side is already among the top five in the rivers and lakes, how can it be so easy to catch him?"
Xi Mengchu said, "Yes, in fact, Xiaofeng was arrested on purpose." ”
Mu Chen frowned and said, "Deliberately?"
Xi Mengchu said, "Xiaofeng knows that Li Yanguang and eldest brother you have an old feud, Li Yanguang's kung fu has improved by leaps and bounds, and what he wants to do most is to find his eldest brother for revenge, so Xiaofeng guessed that he must have a conspiracy to set the decisive battle location in Huashan, Xiaofeng decided to take risks for the sake of his eldest brother, and he will plan accordingly"
When Mu Chen heard this, he suddenly didn't know what to say, but felt a rush of blood rising in his chest.
Xi Mengchu continued, "We first went to Kansai, and two months later, Li Yanguang sent us to the Southern Dynasty and was imprisoned by Lin Hongyue."
Mu Chen said, "You escaped later?"
Xi Mengchu said, "We pretended to be powerless before, their vigilance against us was not high, Xiaofeng learned that Lin Hongyue was going to be in charge of the Southern Dynasty alone, for fear that he would kill the royal family, so he escaped from prison at night and rescued the emperor and the empress dowager"
Mu Chen asked again, "Since you have come out, why do you have to go back?"
Xi Mengchu said, "Xiaofeng said that if you want to disrupt Lin Hongyue's position, you must get the most critical thing in your hands."
Mu Chen: "Soldier Talisman?"
Xi Mengchu nodded, and said, "Xiaofeng went back to steal the talisman, I didn't worry, so I went with him, but I didn't expect Lin Hongyue to be prepared."
Mu Chen said gloomily, "That second brother, how is he now?"
Xi Mengchu shook his head and said, "I don't know, after I was injured and left the palace, I never saw him again."
Mu Chen couldn't speak anymore, suddenly stood up, lifted his sword, and was about to grab the door.
Bai Chutian immediately said, "Boss, wait a minute, maybe the head of the side is fine."
Mu Chen said, "How do you know?"
Bai Chutian asked Xi Mengchu and said, "Mrs. Bian, are you in the same cell as Master Bian in the prison?"
Xi Mengchu said, "Yes"
Bai Chutian said, "Then have you ever seen a person wearing a hat enter the cell?"
Xi Mengchu thought carefully and said, "No"
Bai Chutian smiled and said, "That's right," he said to Mu Chen, "Boss, do you remember that Zhang Qianzhong said that he had met Bian Zhangmen in the prison."
Mu Chen said: "So what?"
Bai Chutian smiled and said, "Since he has seen Bian Zhangmen, and Mrs. Bian has never seen him, doesn't that mean that Zhang Qianzhong was not by Mrs. Bian when he saw Bian Zhangmen?"
Mu Chen waited for him to continue.
Bai Chutian continued, "That can show that when Zhang Qianzhong saw Bian Zhangmen, Bian Zhangmen was already in prison for the second time at that time, that is, the time when the thief was arrested, doesn't this show that Bian Zhangmen is not worried about his life at present."
Mu Chen said, "But that was a long time ago, how do you know if he's safe now?"
Bai Chutian said, "But the subordinates feel that their purpose in not killing the head of the side is nothing more than to contain the boss, as long as the boss does not appear, they will never easily kill the head of the side."
Mu Chen pondered for a long time, and suddenly felt that there was some truth, and couldn't help but cast an approving glance at Bai Chutian.
Mu Chen put down his sword again and sat back.
He suddenly glanced at the scarecrow and said, "Who sent this scarecrow?"
Xi Mengchu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
It seems that she doesn't know that the scarecrow is a token of Xiang Tianzong, and she doesn't know that this scarecrow is a symbol of bad luck.
Hua Qing suddenly said, "In the early hours of this morning, I ran to the hall to get it."
Mu Chen called the running hall.
"When it was about to close last night, a man in black wearing a mask sent it"
This is the answer given by Runtang.
Mu Chendao: "Wearing a mask?"
"Yes, he is dressed in black, and even his mask is blue-black."
Mu Chen said, "What does that mask look like?"
"It's a blue-faced, fanged demon image"
Mu Chen muttered, "Demons?"
He suddenly asked Xi Mengchu, "You saw the masked man, and it's him?"
Xi Mengchu nodded.
Mu Chen asked Rantang, "When this scarecrow sent it, did you post a letter or something?"
Ran Tang thought about it, suddenly slapped his head, and said, "I remember, there is"
Mu Chen really guessed correctly, he knew that this was also Xiang Tianzong's habit.
"The prayer post is stuck to the scarecrow, I was afraid that someone would steal it at night, so I took it off"
As he spoke, he took out the prayer post.
Mu Chen took the post and said, "Okay, you go down first."
Open the post
Brother Zhimu came to the south, and Hongyue specially invited him to drink at noon tomorrow. Brother Wangmu is not disappointed in the hope of the red moon.
Red Moon Worship
Bai Chutian said, "Boss, do you really want to go?"
Muchen said, "I have to go"
Bai Chutian said, "Boss, I don't think I can go"
Mu Chen said, "Why?"
He suddenly felt that it was not wrong to listen to Bai Chutian's opinion more.
Bai Chutian said, "Lin Xiangtian Lin Hongyue's father and son are not in harmony, so even if the boss kills Lin Xiangtian, Lin Hongyue may not regard the boss as an enemy, but now the situation is very different, and the current Lin Hongyue will inevitably regard the boss as an enemy."
Of course, Mu Chen understood that he was talking about Shangguan Wuyi, if the old hatred Lin Hongyue didn't care, then this new hatred Lin Hongyue would not be indifferent and forbearance.
The hatred of taking a wife is inherently unshared.
So Lin Hongyue now has every reason to kill Mu Chen.
But Mu Chen said, "I have to go, if I don't go, they will definitely use the second brother to blackmail me"
Bai Chutian sighed and stopped dissuading. He knew that Mu Chen had to go now, and it was useless to persuade anyone.
Mu Chen smiled bitterly, "So I might as well outwit it and go by myself."
Bai Chutian immediately said, "My subordinates will go to the Immortal Mansion to investigate for the boss first."
This is the only thing he can do as a subordinate at the moment.
Mu Chen didn't stop him, but just said to Xi Mengchu, "You drink the medicine first, get some sleep, and when Bai Chutian comes back, I will let him take you out of here."
Hua Qing said, "Why do you want to leave here, the capital belongs to the Xiao family, where do you want us to go?"
Mu Chen said, "You also know that this scarecrow was sent by the man in black, so he must have known where you are staying, maybe he let his younger siblings go to find you through her."
Hua Qing said: "How do you know?"
Mu Chen said, "Even the second brother was captured alive, I don't believe that my younger brother and sister can escape so easily"
Xi Mengchu didn't speak, she didn't have the strength to speak now.
Hua Qing said, "Where are you taking us?"
Mu Chendao, "For the time being, let's go to Juyi Villa outside the city, although it is a little dilapidated, it can still be accommodated."
Hua Qing didn't speak, but sat there quietly, holding Xiao Fengyin in his arms.
Xiao Fengyin was still staring at him.
Mu Chen suddenly smiled and said, "I'll give you something"
As he spoke, he took out a brocade box and put it in front of Xiao Fengyin.
Hua Qing said, "What do you want to do?"
Mu Chen smiled, "Why are you so sensitive?"
Hua Qing said gloomily, "How can I not be sensitive? Now that there are only the two of us left in the royal family, and the other royal families surnamed Xiao have been killed by Lin Hongyue, if I am not sensitive, how can I be worthy of the first emperor?"
Mu Chen said, "Yes, he is still too young, he really needs someone to help him"
Xiao Fengyin suddenly said, "I'm not small anymore."
Mu Chen smiled, "Since you are not small, do you dare to see what is in this?"
Xiao Fengyin really broke free from Hua Qing's embrace, walked to the table, picked up the brocade box, opened it, and said in a lost voice, "Soldier talisman?"
Mu Chen said, "Not bad, soldier talisman"
Hua Qing exclaimed, "Isn't the Talisman in Lin Hongyue's, how can you have a Talisman?"
Mu Chen said, "Yan Xuetian handed it to me"
Hua Qing said, "You have a talisman here, why does Lin Hongyue still have it?"
Mu Chen said, "My one is real, and his one is naturally fake."
Xiao Feng groaned, "But I grew up holding the talisman, and his talisman is real, so I won't admit my mistake."
Mu Chen said, "Then what do you look at me?"
Xiao Fengyin took a closer look and said gloomily, "It's also true."
Hua Qing said, "Your Majesty, are you mistaken? How can there be two true talismans?"
Mu Chen said, "He read it right, this is indeed true, as for Lin Hongyue's one, it must have been imitated by a capable person."
Xiao Feng groaned, "This talisman has passed through Lin Hongyue's hand?"
Muchen said "No"
Xiao Feng groaned, "Since Lin Hongyue has never seen a talisman, how can he imitate it? What's more, if you want to imitate a talisman, you can't imitate it without carefully measuring it every penny."
Mu Chen looked surprised, he didn't expect that the seven-year-old child in front of him was much smarter than he thought, but he could only sigh and say, "I don't know about this"
Xiao Fengyin didn't ask again, and pushed the talisman back to Mu Chen.
Mu Chen said, "You don't want it?"
Xiao Feng groaned, "I feel that it is safer for you to be in your talisman, if you are alive, the talisman is there, and if you die, I am also dead."
Mu Chen smiled bitterly, this kid is too smart.
He thought that Shangguan Cheng was the smartest young man he had ever seen, but he didn't want him to see a smarter and younger person than Shangguan Cheng now.
Mu Chen had no choice but to withdraw the talisman.
Xiao Fengyin was still staring at him, his eyes bloodshot.
Mu Chen said, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Xiao Fengyin said coldly: "I don't think you people are good people."
Mu Chen became interested and asked, "Why?"
Xiao Feng groaned, "You all call yourself an adult, ignore me, never listen to me, just treat me as a puppet"
Mu Chen was shocked again, this is the words of a child?
Xiao Fengyin continued, "Even Yan Xuetian just wants me to grow up faster, he should leave as soon as possible, he never considers my feelings."
Mu Chen sighed, not knowing what to say.
Xiao Feng groaned, "You discussed a lot of things just now, but you better not forget a little."
Mu Chen's heart couldn't help but tremble a little, and said, "What?"
Xiao Fengyin clenched his fists and said, "You are in the Southern Dynasty, the Southern Dynasty is mine, and this country is also mine, so before you do things, you must grasp the proportions."
If it was someone else, Mu Chen would have laughed out loud, but now he not only couldn't laugh, but even wanted to cry.
He didn't know what Xiao Fengyin was thinking in his heart, but what he was thinking was definitely not what a seven-year-old child should think.
- Xiao Fengyin's heart is much bigger than his surface, if this child becomes a monarch, he will definitely have a great achievement.
This is Mu Chen's evaluation of Xiao Fengyin.
He stared at Xiao Fengyin and said lightly, "Okay, I remember"
