Chapter 388: Wanted
After Long Xing learned the news that Concubine Chu was killed by the Shepherd Wolf, he didn't have much reaction in his heart, he was just curious about why the Shepherd Wolf wanted to kill Concubine Chu......
Could it be that the shepherd wolf knew Concubine Chu's secret and knew that Concubine Chu was plotting against Yu Hualong? Long Xing couldn't help but say in his heart: "This Sky Wolf can't really be a loyal minister, right?" That's too touching...... However, isn't it a bit of a tiger to kill my concubine directly......
Looking at He Tianfang in front of him, Long Xing felt that he had to guess, and asked He Tianfang if he could get it?
So, "General He, why did the dog thief of the Shepherd Wolf kill my beloved concubine, do you know the inside story?" ”
He Tianfang thought about it again and again, but he really couldn't think of an excuse that could excuse the shepherd wolf, although he really wanted to say two good words for the shepherd wolf...... In the end, He Tianfang had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, the shepherd wolf has always been crazy, and he is even more reckless when he kills people, so ...... He didn't say anything why. However, after killing Concubine Chu, Mu Tian Wolf went to find Xiao Nanzong, the general of Chen Guo, and when he came back, Xiao Nanzong had already agreed to lead his troops to surrender, so the biggest credit for this southern expedition was actually Mu Tian Wolf......"
When Long Xing heard this, it was really so, otherwise it would be really difficult to explain why Xiao Nanzong, who had always been like a rock, suddenly decided to disarm and surrender......
Long Xing sighed and said, "Immediately issue a wanted warrant to arrest the Shepherd Wolf!" The concubine who dares to kill me is simply lawless, this time, no one can save him! ”
As a result, the situation in Longxing City is even more complicated!
At the beginning, it was just the sadness and dullness of the queen's collapse, followed by the pride and joy of the fall of the empire Chen Guo, and now there is an incredible news, the wanted notice of the shepherd wolf has been pasted all over the gates of the capital, whether it is the court officials or the ordinary people, all of them are talking about it......
For these wanted notices against the shepherd wolf, although the people in the capital do not know why, they basically have an attitude of watching the excitement, and there are many more happy people than unhappy people.
Like the second prince, the sixth prince, and the Yuwen family, these people who have an enmity with the Shepherd Wolf, their hearts are simply happy, because they have been waiting for the day when the Shepherd Wolf loses power, and now the Son of Heaven has finally made up his mind to get rid of the Shepherd Wolf, how can they not be happy?
Without the support of the Son of Heaven, if you want to put the shepherd wolf to death, isn't that a matter of uniting hundreds of officials and a few words?
But there are also people who are unhappy, and the first to bear the brunt is the county lord.
On this day, the county lord was still as usual, accompanying the seventh princess, guarding the spirit in the mourning hall, the little thirteen on the side had just cried and fell asleep, and the seventh princess gently patted the thirteenth on the back.
But a palace maid suddenly appeared and said, "County Lord, someone is looking for you outside." ”
After the county lord said hello to the seventh princess, he went out of the mourning hall and came to the courtyard, which turned out to be Pei Ying.
The county lord said, "Xiaoying, why are you here?" Xinjiao is exhausted now, and she has to take care of Thirteen, I have to accompany her, if you don't have anything important, I have to go back first......"
Pei Ying said: "Oh, Xinwei, something is wrong!" Now the capital is full of notices about the wanted General Mu, and it also says that if General Mu refuses to be arrested, he can be killed on the spot! General Mu has a great kindness to our husband and wife, why did I ignore it, that's why I came to you......"
The county lord hadn't rested well in the past few days, and when he suddenly heard such news, his eyes were dark, and he almost fell to the ground.
Pei Ying hurriedly supported the county lord and said, "Xinwei, are you okay?" Don't worry, General Mu hasn't appeared yet, and with his martial arts, how can it be so easy to kill him! The top priority is that we first find out what General Mu has done and whether he has been framed......"
The county lord also felt that this matter was a little strange, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Ying, didn't the notice to arrest him say why he was arrested?" ”
Pei Ying said: "No, this is the strangest place!" The notice only said that General Mu was heinous, isn't this nonsense? The people of the capital who don't know! But he didn't say what he had done, which made His Majesty suddenly angry and wanted to arrest him......"
After saying this, Pei Ying suddenly felt as if she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said: "Oh Xinwei, I am talking fast at this time, and I said the wrong thing...... However, you better inquire, otherwise we don't know how to help General Mu if we want to......"
The county lord's heart became a mess, and he said, "Xiaoying, you go back first, I will find out ......"
Pei Ying had no choice but to say: "Well, then don't worry, General Mu is not so easy to be arrested......
After Pei Ying left, the county lord immediately decided to go to the queen mother, because the queen mother was the county lord's most reliable backer. After coming to Cining Palace, the Queen Mother looked at the haggard county lord, and she was also distressed, and hurriedly said: "You girl, come and sit down, let the mourning family take a good look, are you tired these days?" ”
The county lord threw himself into the arms of the queen mother, and said with tears in his eyes: "Ancestor, why did Your Majesty anger General Mu, now the city is full of notices for wanted General Mu......"
The Queen Mother was also stunned when she heard this, because she didn't know about it! The Queen Mother hurriedly said: "Qiang'er, don't worry, the mourning family will send someone to ask, quickly wipe these tears......" After a while, I saw that the old eunuch Wei Ling was called, and the Queen Mother felt that Wei Ling must know about it!
The Queen Mother immediately said: "Father-in-law Wei, why is there suddenly a notice in this city to arrest the shepherd wolf?" Do you know what's going on?! ”
Wei Ling hesitated and said, "Go back to ...... Back to the Queen Mother's words, this matter ...... This matter is very important, and His Majesty is afraid of causing rumors, so he ...... There is no public ...... for the time being"
The Queen Mother said: "Don't worry, the mourning family is not a person who doesn't know the general situation, Father-in-law Wei, just say it quickly!" ”
Wei Ling was helpless, so he had to say truthfully: "Before, Your Majesty called General Fubo He Tianfang for questioning, and asked about the itinerary of General Mu and Concubine Chu, but General He said...... said that Concubine Chu was killed by General Mu with a sword, and General Mu's whereabouts are now unknown......"
Hearing this, the queen mother and the county lord were stunned, the shepherd wolf killed Concubine Chu? Then it's no wonder that the city is full of notices to arrest him! It is estimated that it will not be long before the whole country will be plastered with notices to arrest him......
The county lord couldn't accept it for a while, and said, "This ...... This can't be, how could he ...... That's impossible! ”
The Queen Mother hurriedly said: "Father-in-law Wei, is this true?" ”
Wei Ling hurriedly said: "Back to the Queen Mother, it's true!" General He said that many soldiers of the Southern Expedition army had witnessed General Mu's killing of Concubine Chu...... However, after General Mu killed Concubine Chu, he did not say the reason why he killed the killer, but ran to Chen Guo and persuaded Chen Guo Xiao Nanzong to surrender. ”
When the county lord heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Old ancestor, although General Mu has committed a heinous crime, it is also an indelible merit for him to persuade Chen Guo to surrender, so that the domain will be unified and all the people will return to their hearts......
The Queen Mother said with an embarrassed face: "Qiang'er, you should know what crime it is to kill the concubine!" Even if his merits are world-famous, it is impossible to avoid death! This shepherd wolf is simply lawless, that is the imperial concubine, and he dares to kill him if he says it! If all of this can be lived, then where is the majesty of the Empire? Where is the face of the royal family? Qiang'er, don't say it again, the mourning family will be in charge, and dissolve your marriage contract with the shepherd wolf, this time, the shepherd wolf will definitely die! ”
The county lord probably also understood the seriousness of the matter, and no longer embarrassed the queen mother, but said: "Ancestor take care of your body, Qiang'er retires." ”
The county lord felt that it was definitely useless to plead for mercy or something, so she had to find another way. Fortunately, the shepherd wolf has not yet appeared and has not been caught, as long as the shepherd wolf is not caught, then there is still a chance......
Seeing the county lord walk out with his eyes distracted, the queen mother hurriedly said: "Father-in-law Wei, send a few more masters of the internal affairs government to follow the county lord day and night, and the mourning family is afraid that this girl will do something stupid......"
Wei Ling hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the old minister will do it!" ”
But the county lord didn't seem to do anything out of the ordinary, but went out of the palace to find his second brother. The county lord just wanted to ask what was going on.
When the county lord returned to the Song State Mansion, He Tianfang had just returned, looking at his sister with a haggard face, but his eyes were staring at him very powerfully, of course He Tianfang knew what was going on......
He Tian hurriedly said: "Qiang'er, don't worry, the shepherd wolf will be fine!" He has something very important to do, and he invited me to join him! How can something happen to him, you must not think nonsense. ”
The county lord said: "Second brother, why did he kill Concubine Chu?" He's not a man who doesn't know the general situation......"
He Tianfang said: "I'll tell you about this, don't mention it outside!" On that day, despite my persuasion, the shepherd wolf insisted on killing Concubine Chu, saying that Concubine Chu had killed his eleven brothers...... I don't know what's going on, but the shepherd wolf won't be caught, don't worry. ”
The county lord said again: "Then where is he now?" Is it safe? Will it be discovered by the army of the Empire? ”
He Tianfang said: "I don't know where he is now, but he should return to the capital soon...... But don't worry! He definitely didn't come to die, with his current ability, how could it be so easy to kill him......"
The county lord was even more puzzled in his heart, and said: "Since he has committed such a heinous crime, why does he want to go back to the capital!" Wouldn't that be self-contained......"
He Tianfang said: "My silly sister, if he never returns to the capital, then what will you do?" Even if he wants to die in the world, he has to take you with him, right? Don't worry, I'll help you secretly! ”
When the county lord heard this, he finally felt a little better in his heart, and said, "Then you shouldn't go back to the capital...... Second brother, otherwise, you will send some people outside the city to keep an eye these days, and if you find any trace of him, remind him not to enter the city, and then I will go out of the city to find him! ”
He Tianfang pinched the county lord's nose and said, "You have no conscience, you really want to elope with him and go to the end of the world!" Then have you ever thought about your father, about me and my eldest brother? I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup the shepherd wolf poured on you! ”
The county lord also felt a little ashamed, but said, "Didn't the second brother just say that he would help us......
He Tianfang suddenly became arrogant, "Don't help, don't help!" He had the ability to marry my sister openly and honestly, and secretly eloped with my sister, what kind of ability! I also want my family Qiang to follow him to the end of the world, I am afraid, how can I help him? ”
The county lord was also anxious, and hurriedly said: "Second brother, if I don't run, you can send someone to remind him not to return to Beijing, and the farther he goes, the better......"
He Tianfang glanced back at the county lord and said, "Then the farther he runs, the better, won't you never be able to see him in this life?" Oh, bastard, I'm so mad at him, wouldn't it be better if he didn't see you? I'm such an excellent sister, can't I get married? ”
The county lord glanced at He Tianfang and said, "Second brother, if you don't want me to ignore you forever, you can send someone to stop him outside the city and don't let him enter the city." There may be people out there who will catch him, but there are certainly not as many masters in the capital...... The eldest brother said that the Xue Qianchou beside His Majesty is an invincible existence in the world......"
"Stop him? The shepherd is a madman, who can stop him......"
"Second brother, what did you say?"
"No, nothing said...... I said I'd send someone to stop him! ”
And at this moment, Mu Tianwolf and the others didn't know that they were wanted, and they were still rushing all the way to the capital. Of course, even if the Shepherd Wolf knew that he was being wanted, he would not hesitate to go to the capital, not only for the sake of the county lord, but also to make a deal with Long Xing.
This deal, if Long Xing did it with him, he would let Long Xing go for the time being; But if Long Xing insists on ignoring the overall situation and wants to kill the Shepherd Wolf forever, then the Shepherd Wolf will definitely attack Long Xing.
But when Mu Tian Wolf and the others rushed all the way to Yuncheng, they met an unexpected person, this person was the bounty landlord that Mu Tian Wolf had been waiting for.
When it was close to dusk, Mu Tianwolf, Xiao Nanzong, Huofeng and others came to the gate of Yuncheng, and were about to enter the city to find a place to rest, but they were all attracted by the sudden sound of flute. The sound of this flute is neither sad nor joyful, neither hot nor cold, and when you listen carefully, there is not even a melody!
But the sound of this flute is surprisingly attractive, and people can't help but stop and listen......
Mu Tianwolf and the others were not idle people, and soon noticed the mystery hidden in the sound of this flute, and hurriedly gathered the inner breath to resist, and then when he looked up, he found that there was a thin old man standing on the city tower, and at this moment he had put away the jade flute in his hand.
The shepherd wolf said, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”
The old man raised the star-picking order in his hand and said, "Northern Shura, didn't you ask Xiao Zhao to bring a letter and say that he wanted to see me?" ”
Mu Tian Wolf, Huo Feng and the others couldn't help blurting out, "Bounty Lord! ”
