Chapter 791: Mysterious Town
Qiu Shuiman fell off his horse and stood up with the pain in his knees. In the top novel, X. is a small town in front of me, and it is late at night, but this town is brightly lit and looks a little weird.
The horse was already tired, lying on the ground snoring and panting, and Qiushui pursed her lips, and now her mouth was dry.
Walking towards the town, I passed a stone gate on the way, the stone gate is very high, and there are three big characters engraved on it, Shimen Town.
Qiu Shuiman was exhausted and urgently needed to find a restaurant or teahouse to eat, even if it was a sip of water.
She felt like her throat was on fire, and during the day she walked away with jealousy, taking nothing with her.
After walking through Shimen, a very wide bluestone road slowly extends into the depths of the town, Shimen Town, this town is really strange.
Qiu Shuiman thought about this as he cautiously walked towards the depths of the town.
Qiu Shuiman knew that her top priority now was to find a teahouse to drink tea first, otherwise she was really worried that she would not be able to hold on, and now she had vaguely felt that her eyes were dizzy.
I don't know how long I walked with heavy footsteps, but the strange thing is that although it is brightly lit, it is actually some blacksmith shop.
"Strange, why aren't there even pedestrians on the road?"
Qiushui muttered to himself in a hoarse throat.
The footsteps are getting heavier and heavier, Qiu Shuiman feels that he has been walking for a long time, but he has not found a single teahouse, how can such a prosperous town not even have a place to drink water?
A white light suddenly flashed in the sky, and when Qiu Shui looked up, he saw that the lightning had torn a hole in the night, and it was about to rain.
Qiushuiman must speed up his pace and find a place to eat and shelter from the rain, otherwise the night will be very difficult.
Too late to find a teahouse, Qiu Shuiman found a blacksmith shop that was still lit and began to slam the door with all his strength.
"Who?!"
Hearing a knock on the door, the sound of striking iron in the blacksmith shop suddenly stopped, and a rough voice asked alertly.
"Passing by, I want to find some water to drink......"
Qiu Shuiman said with the last of his strength.
"Bang Bang"
With a bang, the door was opened from the inside, and standing in front of Qiu Shuiman was a sweaty iron man, who was shirtless and had gloomy eyes.
"Is there any water?"
Qiu Shuiman raised his eyes at the big man who was striking iron, but before the big man could speak, Qiu Shuiman's eyes were dark, and he didn't know anything.
"Girl, girl, wake up!"
The big man squatted down and wanted to wake up Qiu Shuiman, but Qiu Shuiman was already unconscious.
At this moment, in the Qiyang County Lord's Mansion in Sunset Castle, Xiao Jue was standing in front of the window, looking at the night view of Sunset Fort outside the window.
The hateful and sad eyes that came to mind when Qiu Shui saw him hugging the county lord of Qiyang during the day, and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The faint sound of footsteps sounded behind him, and Xiao Jue withdrew his thoughts.
"Are you still thinking about the day?"
The county lord of Qiyang wore a pink dress and walked in like a fairy.
His eyes were looking at Xiao Jue with a hint of scrutiny.
"No, why are you here, don't you rest so late?"
Xiao Jue's voice was as gentle as water, and their relationship did not seem to be affected by Qiu Shuiman.
"You really don't have any impression of that autumn waterman?"
In the heart of the county lord of Qiyang, it was a difficult hurdle to overcome, and she couldn't forget the eyes when the autumn water was overflowing, which was definitely not the eyes that people should use.
"I think she may have recognized the wrong person, does the county lord still not believe me?"
Xiao Jue's voice was still gentle, and there was no trace of anger at the suspicion of the county lord of Qiyang, how could such a Xiao Jue make the county lord of Qiyang not love?
"I believe in you, it's just that my autumn eyes are very different."
The county lord of Qiyang stepped forward and gently grabbed Xiao Jue's arm.
Xiao Jue did not show the slightest detachment this time, but stroked the back of the county lord of Qiyang very gently.
"Do you look like me?"
Xiao Jue then looked at the Yang County Lord like water.
"Xiao Jue, you have been with me for so long, you have never shown your heart to me, what kind of feelings do you have for me......"
The appearance of Qiu Shuiman made the county lord of Qiyang suddenly more alert, and also made the county lord of Qiyang feel the danger, so her whole person became a little sensitive.
Xiao Jue was slightly stunned when he heard this, and a touch of complicated feelings appeared in his amber eyes.
"Is it my heart, the county lord? I thought I would have been able to connect with the county lord for a long time......"
No matter which woman listens to Xiao Jue's words, she will become obedient, and the county lord of Qiyang will not be an exception.
Hearing Xiao Jue's words, the county lord of Qiyang hugged Xiao Jue tightly.
Where have you been, but don't have an accident...... In Shimen Town, in a luxurious courtyard in the center of the town, Qiu Shuiman was lying on the bed around the curtain, and his eyes were slightly open.
The scene in front of him was extremely unfamiliar, and the string in Qiu Shuiman's head tensed all of a sudden, and Teng suddenly sat up from the bed and was alert.
"Where is this?"
Autumn water flooded the surrounding environment, only to see that he was lying on the bed, and this room is a very well-furnished room, the wall is hung with landscape paintings, carefully row by row are painted are orchids, and there are poems next to them, which are also related to orchids.
There is a faint fragrance wafting in the room, and the owner of this room is very fond of orchids.
Qiu Shuiman wanted to get out of bed, but just stretched out one foot when he heard footsteps at the door.
"Girl, you've finally woken up, our son has been waiting for you for a long time......"
Coming in was a little maid with a bright smile on her face and an innocent look in her eyes.
"You sons? Who is it? ”
Qiu Shuiman frowned slightly, listening to this maid's words, this son should know himself.
"The girl will come out with me."
The little maid smiled, and the two small dimples were very playful.
Qiu Shuiman got out of bed and followed the little maid to the outside of the room, at this time Qiu Shuiman knew that there was a hole outside this room.
"Miss Qiu, aren't we beautiful here?"
The little maid walked towards the front hall with Qiu Shuiman, and at the same time told Qiu Shuiman about some things that were not available.
"How do you know my surname is Qiu?"
Qiushui stared at the maid with round eyes.
"Because the girl and my son-in-law are old acquaintances, the son said that the girl, your surname is Qiu."
The little girl smiled, and did not hide the autumn water.
"May I ask who your son-in-law is?"
Qiu Shuiman couldn't wait to see this son, because Qiu Shuiman really had too many doubts in his heart, and now he urgently needed someone to answer him.
The little maid smiled without saying a word, and walked forward with the autumn water.
Soon the two of them arrived in the front hall, only to see that the wine and food had been set up in the front hall, and the owner here had indeed waited for him for a long time.
"Miss Qiu is waiting here, I'll go and inform my son-in-law now."
The little maid said and left, and Qiu Shuiman sat here alone.
This son can really sell Guanzi, saying that he has been waiting for him for a long time, but he can't see his shadow when the autumn water comes.
Just as Qiushui was complaining in his heart, there was a sound of footsteps not far away, the footsteps were calm and mature, and he knew that he was a person of status when he heard it.
"Miss Qiu, you're finally awake."
The voice was familiar, as if it had been heard not long ago.
Qiu Shui turned his head and saw that the man was wearing a dark robe, his eyes were calm and mature, and it was actually the general Mu Xiaonan!
"General Mu, why are you?"
Qiu Shuiman didn't expect that the person who saved him turned out to be General Mu Xiaonan, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Mu Xiaonan sat next to Qiu Shuiman, beckoned Qiu Shuiman to sit down and said, "I didn't expect to see Miss Qiu again so soon, we are really fateful." ”
"I remember I fainted at a blacksmith shop, how did I end up with you?"
Qiushui frowned slightly, she didn't understand it anymore.
What does Mu Xiaonan have to do with this Shimen Town, and what secrets does Shimen Town have?
These questions kept turning over and over again in Qiu Shuiman's mind.
"This entire blacksmith shop in Shimen Town was built by my subordinates, where are you going if you don't come to me?"
Mu Xiaonan smiled lightly when he heard this, it turned out that the blacksmith shop here was Mu Xiaonan's property.
"But why do you have so many blacksmiths here?"
Qiu Shuiman has already sensed that there are many secrets hidden in this Shimen Town, and now she is waiting for her to find out the answers one by one.
"Forge Weapon ......"
Mu Xiaonan's eyes flashed, and his tone suddenly became low.
A scene from the wedding of the county lord of Qiyang appeared in Qiu Shuiman's mind, and she suddenly thought of the weapons she found behind the rockery in the back garden of the county lord of Qiyang.
"Could it be that you framed the county lord of Qiyang, those weapons were actually made by yourself!"
Qiu Shui wrinkled his eyebrows stiffly, it turned out that those weapons were all from Shimen Town, so wouldn't the county lord of Qiyang really be wronged?
Although the county lord of Qiyang and Qiu Shuiman are rivals in love, this secret still shocks Qiu Shuiman.
"To be exact, it's not a frame, but a temptation, someone in the court wants to rebel, and I must help the emperor find this person."
When Mu Xiaonan said this, there was a trace of determination and depth in his eyes, which showed that he was determined to find out this traitor.
"So the first thing the emperor wants to test is the county lord of Qiyang?"
The autumn water is full of light and shining, and the mystery is revealed in one sentence.
Mu Xiaonan smiled deeply in his eyes, and said with a chuckle: "Miss Qiu is really smart, the county lord of Qiyang is powerful and powerful, it can be said that it is a local monopoly power, and the emperor has always had lingering feelings about the county lord of Qiyang, so the first object of suspicion is also the county lord of Qiyang, but at the same time, it also exposes a piece of the emperor's heart." ”
"I'm worried that the county lord of Qiyang will intend to rebel one day, after all, the power of the county lord of Qiyang is gradually expanding."
Qiushui frowned deeply.
Although the emperor seems to have a small belly from a personal point of view, this idea is not wrong from the perspective of power.
Mu Xiaonan nodded, but his eyes suddenly swept over Qiu Shuiman's body, and he was suddenly attracted by something on Qiu Shuiman's body.
"What's that?"
Mu Xiaonan stared at the thing hanging around Qiu Shuiman's neck, and his feelings suddenly became nervous.
Qiu Shuiman naturally knew that Mu Xiaonan was talking about the droplet-shaped jade pendant he wore around his neck.
"This was given to me by Mo Ling last time."
Qiu Shuiman took the droplet-shaped jade pendant off his neck and placed it on the table.
Mu Xiaonan picked up the jade pendant left and right, and a trace of complicated feelings flashed in his eyes.
"That's right, this is a symbol of imperial power, and with this jade pendant, you are the emperor's envoy."
