Chapter 295: Reasoning

Su Qianye smiled: "Then tell me how I should get you?"

Mu Chen said, "You first heard that I was going to Qige Mountain Villa, and then caught up with the heavy snow, and concluded that I would definitely go to the border inn to avoid the snow, so Ouyang Meng went there in advance to wait for me."

Ouyang Meng interrupted, "How do we know you're going to Qige Villa?"

Mu Chen said, "I believe that it is not difficult to ask the people of the Heavenly Sect about things."

Ouyang Meng said, "Even if we find out that you are going to Qige Villa, how do we know which way you are going?

Mu Chen smiled, "This is not difficult, you heard that I have sent someone to Qige Villa first, and I have to rush over now, which means that I must have something urgent to do in Qige Villa." Since it's urgent, I don't want anyone to disturb me, so I'll pick a very remote road."

Ouyang Meng said: "So you think I'll wait for you there?

Mu Chen smiled and said, "Actually, this is not very important, because you will always have a way to know my whereabouts, although I don't know what method you use"

Ouyang Meng said, "Okay, let's not mention this for the time being, tell me why I went all the way to the thief's den to wait for you?"

Mu Chen said, "It's actually very simple, you know that the border inn is the only inn within a radius of 100 miles, and it was winter at that time, so you guessed that I would definitely go to rest." What's more, you deliberately left the carriage at the door, so that I would feel that there were guests in the inn, and thus let my guard down."

Ouyang Meng said, "You mean that I colluded with those thieves?"

Mu Chen said, "You don't need to collude with them, because you know that they are thieves, and when you see a woman like you entering the inn, they will definitely not let you go."

Ouyang Meng said, "And then?"

Muchen said, "Then you saw me, and begged to make me feel that you were in danger, and we finally met, so I will save you"

Ouyang Meng sneered.

Mu Chen said, "What I said is not right?"

Ouyang Meng said, "You guessed well, I just don't know how you guessed it"

Mu Chen said, "It's very simple, you are the number one in Jiang Yuelou, you go to play the piano to the prince, how can the prince send someone to escort you back, but not only did I not see the escort, but I didn't even see the people in Jiang Yuelou." I don't believe that Jiang Yuelou is really so relieved to let the top brand go out alone. And Tie Qin never told me anything about the people who were traveling with you. ”

Ouyang Meng bit his lip and sighed, "I ignored it."

Su Qianye comforted her and said, "You've done a good job," he Huo Ran said to Mu Chen again, "What else have you guessed?"

Mu Chen said, "I guess you originally wanted to take you away when I left, and then you could ask me to come to Jiangyue City." But you didn't expect Guo Zhu to rebel against the water, and you didn't expect Guo Zhu to find you to assassinate me."

Ouyang Meng said, "Of course I won't assassinate you"

Mu Chen said, "But this is a good opportunity for you"

Ouyang Meng said, "Good opportunity?"

Mu Chen said, "Of course, you pushed the boat down the river, dedicated yourself to Guo Zhu, deceived his trust, and then told me his secret, and gained my trust, you must know that my trust in you at that time was very important" He seemed to be a little tired and took a sip of tea.

Su Qianye seemed to listen to it with relish, and was still waiting for Mu Chen to continue.

Mu Chen said, "Guo Shu felt that you had betrayed him, so he would say something like 'You are also worthy of preaching morality?'. But that doesn't matter to you, you don't care if they live or die."

Ouyang Meng said, "I just want to bring you to Jiangyue City?"

Mu Chen said, "Not bad. My sudden poison is actually very beneficial to you, because then I can not only come to Jiangyue City, but also meet Su Qianye naturally and enter your trap. In order to show that he didn't know, City Lord Su deliberately pretended not to be in Jiangyue City" He looked at Su Qianye and said with a smile, "I'm right."

Su Qianye suddenly applauded and said with a smile, "Sure enough, it's Mu Chen, and the guess is roughly the same as our plan, but the old man still has a question."

Mu Chen said, "What?"

Su Qianye said, "How did you guess me?"

Mu Chen stretched out three fingers and said, "Three points." First, it's something that has nothing to do with here."

Su Qianye said, "What?"

Mu Chen said, "Lin Hongyue kidnapped the prince of the Eastern Dynasty before, and wanted to use this to control the military and political affairs of the Eastern Dynasty to achieve his goal of unifying the Central Plains. But there is one thing I can't figure out, why did Lin Hongyue kidnap the prince of the Eastern Dynasty, but suddenly let him go again, and turned to the Southern Dynasty?"

Su Qianye said, "Why?"

Mu Chen said, "I don't know either. Lin Hongyue said that the reason he did this was to not cause fault with the East, but this reason did not convince me."

Su Qianye said, "Isn't this reason bad? Dongfang is not a person to mess with."

Mu Chen said, "I originally thought the same way, but it just so happened that I had fought with Dongfang Wrong recently, and I think that with Lin Hongyue's power and martial arts, there is no need to be afraid of Dongfang Wrong at all." So I think the reason why he abandoned the east and turned south was for convenience."

Su Qianye said, "Is it more convenient to grab the power of the Southern Dynasty than the Eastern Dynasty?"

Mu Chen said, "No, both are of the same difficulty. But once there was an internal response in the Southern Dynasties, it was completely different. So I guess if the Southern Dynasty had Lin Hongyue's internal response in the imperial court? Moreover, if a smart person like Lin Hongyue wants to unify the Central Plains, how could he not arrange an internal response in the imperial court?"

Su Qianye said, "Do you suspect that Neiying is me?"

Mu Chen smiled bitterly, "I'm not that powerful, I can't see you just a few times before I see you and see that you have something to do with Lin Hongyue, until I came here a few days ago, I didn't doubt you." I think it's suspicious."

Su Qianye said, "This is one of them, and what about the other two?"

Mu Chen said: "The second point is the beginning of my suspicion of you. ”

Su Qianye said, "Listen to me"

Mu Chen said, "A few days ago, I was attacked by Ye Xingru, and you sent Su Tianlan to rescue me, right?"

Su Qianye nodded.

Mu Chen said, "I was surprised when I saw Su Tianlan's swordsmanship that day, do you know why?"

Su Qianye said, "The swordsmanship is too good?"

Mu Chendao "It's just too good, the moves are subtle and gorgeous, it's so good that it's impeccable"

Su Qianye said, "So what, he's my nephew, what's wrong with his swordsmanship?"

Mu Chen said: "Of course it's strange. I had seen his swordsmanship in Huashan before, and his swordsmanship at that time was not as good as what I saw later" He paused and continued, "I don't believe he can improve his swordsmanship so much in a year, even you are unlikely"

Su Qianye said, "So you suspect that he is hiding his strength in Huashan?"

Mu Chen said, "Not bad. ”

Su Qianye said, "Why is he hiding his strength?"

Mu Chen said, "Because someone asked him to do this, and it must be someone who is very close to him."

Su Qianye said, "Who?"

Mu Chen said, "The dignified head of Mount Tai, the swordsmanship is so high. Who in this world can make him willing to give up his position as the leader of the Wuyue Alliance and deliberately lose?"

Su Qianye smiled: "It seems that only I, the uncle, can do it." But what does this have to do with Lin Hongyue?"

Mu Chen said, "Think about it, Su Tianlan has become the leader of the Wuyue Alliance, isn't it a lintel for the Su family to shine?"

Su Qianye said, "Yes"

Mu Chen said, "Since it is, then why did you tell him to give up?" He didn't wait for Su Qianye to answer, and immediately said, "It's because you know that the leader of the Wuyue Alliance will die, and you don't want Su Tianlan to die."

Su Qianye smiled and said, "How do I know that the leader of the Wuyue Alliance will die?"

Mu Chen said, "Yes, I'm also thinking, how could a city lord of Jiangyue City know Lin Xiangtian's purpose, unless that city lord is a person from Xiangtian Sect, a person from Lin Xiangtian."

The smile on Su Qianye's face suddenly disappeared, and he said, "You're starting to doubt me from here?"

Mu Chen nodded.

Ouyang Meng said, "But what you said so much, it's just speculation"

"Yes, these are just some bits and pieces, missing a thread that connects them"

Su Qianye said, "What is the line?"

Mu Chen: "That's the third thing."

Su Qianye said, "What's the matter?"

Mu Chen suddenly slapped the table with his hand, and when his hand was removed, he saw that there was an extra token on the table.

The token left behind by the Man in Black.

Mu Chen said lightly, "It's this token of the Heavenly Sect."
