Under the cold gaze of the lame, Zhongli Xiang left gloomily and stood at the door and stopped slightly.

Chen Mu didn't say anything to stay.

The girl went back to her house in indignation.

She is a young girl after all, she is still too young, and at the age when her heart is full of dreams, she seems to lack comprehension of the use of emotions. Perhaps, she is still amplifying her bad mood.

The cripple spread the painting open and spread it on the table.

Chen Mu stood up and looked.

The painting is badly damaged, and all four corners are missing, as if they were torn down the middle.

"Where did you get this painting from?" Chen Mu pointed to the painting and said, "Don't even have a matching word?" ”

"I'm afraid of being seen, so I tear off the corner and run."

"Oh..."Chen Mu rubbed his chin: "It's really not like it." It's not like it at all. But...... The person in this painting does not have the charm that a prince should have. ”

The cripple put the painting away and crushed it: "Let's not think about those, I think we have delayed enough." Let's not be sluggish, maybe a few big guys of the Tang Clan are waiting for you. You swallow slowly, it's not quite right. ”

"Well, that makes sense." Chen Mu nodded: "I'm also thinking about speeding up." ”

"Okay, then I'll go and prepare the carriage now."

——

To make a long story short, more than one day, I have come to Luoyang West, Thirty Mile Pavilion.

During this time, Miss Zhongli's performance became more and more shy and shy, and it seemed that it was not so fun, but her feelings had also deepened.

It's nearly dusk.

Luoyang City is far away, and the giant city is majestic, which can be described as vast. The city is full of high-rise buildings, resplendent gold, and a prosperous scene is in full view.

However, a very bad situation happened, the lame man fell ill and became very sick.

The lame man was carried to the post house by Zhang Han, and the lame man let the others out, held Chen Mu's hand and said: "Chen Mu, I say a big disrespectful word, I treat you as my son, I am really good for you." I want to help you, but I feel like I'm dying, and I've got two hundred taels of silver here, and you can take them and send them to my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law. In addition, I have a private collection, written in a note, and you can give half of the money in the note to them. ”

The lame man wept bitterly.

Chen Mu was moved, tightened his nose and said, "Lao Zhang, cheer up." I'll take you into the city. ”

"Don't, I don't want them to see what I am. I'm not a good husband, I'm not a good father, I don't have the face to see them. So saying, the cripple howled and wept.

Although Zhang Youtian is not a big man, he is also a horse for half his life, how many times has he been bloodstained on the battlefield, how can he not be called an unsung hero, but when he is old, he has ended up so miserably. Chen Mubei came from the heart, and his eyes were red.

"Cripple, you hold on, I'll go into the city now. I'll take care of what you've entrusted me with. When I come back, I will bring you to glory and prosperity together. ”

"Chen Mu, you are the most promising young man I have ever met. Tang Qiong may not be able to catch up with you back then. Remember, the gate valve is deep, and you can't trust others too much at any time. Especially his own net worth, when it comes to the critical moment, he would rather break his wrist than trust his life to others. Go away, I'll try to survive, and I'll wait for you to come back and tell me how they are. ”

"Okay, I'll leave now."

The cripple grabbed Chen Mu: "Take Zhang Han, don't take Zhong Lixiang." ”

Chen Mu looked at the crippled man, his eyes moistened and nodded.

The lame man let go.

Chen Mu came out and entrusted the lame man to Zhong Lixiang, although Zhong Lixiang was very reluctant, she still agreed.

Taking Zhang Han to leave, Zhong Lixiang suddenly caught up and said with a bitter face: "Do you have to enter Luoyang?" It's dangerous! ”

"I'm not going to report on the gate valve first, I'm going to meet two women."

"Women?"

"Forget it, I'll tell you when I get back."

"You have to be careful. Zhang Han, protect him. ”

Chen Mu and Zhang Han left.

Soon after, it was dark, and the lame man collapsed on the sickbed, without any movement.

Zhong Lixiang sat in a chair, his mood was not high, and he seemed to be estimating whether Chen Mu would have time to enter the city.

At this time, she heard a sound outside the door, and the voice was very quiet: "Senior sister." ”

"Senior brother?"

Zhong Lixiang turned his head and glanced at the lame man, who was seriously ill and his eyes were closed, giving people the feeling that he was dead.

Zhong Lixiang pushed open the door and walked out, seeing a tall man wearing a big hat and a hat, his face hidden deep under the hat.

He raised his head slightly, revealing an angular face under the moonlight, this face was particularly hard, with a touch of awe-inspiring air, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly: "Senior sister, I am so grateful to you, I finally found Zhao Mu." ”

Zhong Lixiang closed the door and walked into the distance, followed by his senior brother, and they came to a deserted courtyard overgrown with weeds.

The girl stood on her feet and turned her head to look at her senior brother: "You don't blame me for bringing him back?" ”

"Now that I've brought it back, I have a new idea. And I also think that the idea is far better than the previous one. ”

Senior brother's name is Leng Bingyan, but this name was changed by him, and no one in this world knows what his original name was.

"Senior brother, what do you think, can you tell me?"

"Of course." Leng Bingyan turned around and said with a smile: "Senior sister, when are you going to marry me?" You know, I've been waiting for you. If it weren't for you, I would have become the Queen Mother's confidant a long time ago. It's a pity I can't. I have to have a child before I enter the palace. Senior sister, you understand me, everything I do now is for you, for you Zhongli home. For Master's last wishes. ”

Leng Bingyan reached out to grab his junior sister's hand, but was dodged by Zhong Lixiang.

The girl looked in the direction of Luoyang City and said, "Actually, I don't want to fulfill my father's last wish. I think it's an endless vendetta to do that. The father died at the hands of the Han family, but the grandfather of the Han family also died at the hands of his father. When is the time for retribution? ”

"Senior sister, how can you say such a thing!" Leng Bingyan's face turned cold: "Since Yuzhou, I have found that you are very close to this illegitimate prince. But they didn't take the initiative to contact me. I waited for you downstairs at Dunhill all night, and you didn't come to see me! What, you have a crush on him? ”

"No, I didn't."

"No?" Leng Bingyan's voice became colder and colder: "Don't forget the oath you made at Master's grave. Now, do you dare to say it again? ”

"Why!"

"For the sake of our dozens of brothers in the Black Eagle Gate, everyone is counting on you now, if you retreat now, won't our dozens of brothers die in vain!"

"Senior brother, don't force me."

"Am I pushing you? This is your father's last wish! Now that you're shaken, don't you feel like you've done something wrong? ”

The girl sobbed and did not speak.

Leng Bingyan slowed down: "Senior sister, you better listen to my plan first." You have to understand one thing, Empress Dowager Chen asked Zhao Mu to leave Luoyang, do you think Empress Dowager Chen really feels sorry for her nephew?

Don't be naïve.

Isn't she trying to give her son a chance?

As a result, that Zhao Mu listened to Empress Dowager Chen's words.

But it's no wonder that Zhao Mu lost his mother when he was six years old, and he grew up under the care of his aunt, so he always regarded his aunt as a mother. He doesn't listen to Empress Dowager Chen, who does he listen to?

Although the Empress Dowager was kind to him, the Empress Dowager had already suffered a stroke at that time and couldn't take care of him at all.

After Zhao Mu fled Luoyang, Empress Dowager Chen sent people to follow Zhao Mu at first, but those bastards were killed by the killers of the Ximen family. They are also die-hards, and they did not expose Zhao Mu's whereabouts.

As a result, Empress Dowager Chen was very worried about Zhao Mu's situation. A group of people were sent out to look for it. But after looking for half a year, they didn't find it, and finally you found it.

If Zhao Mu is sent to King Sangla according to the Queen Mother's original plan, I can rely on this credit to get the Queen Mother's appreciation. But now that Zhao Mu is back, I have a new idea.

I wanted to hide this from the Queen Mother, and instead sold the news to the Meng family and the Ximen family. I thought, I'm going to get a lot of money. With money, if you want to restore the sect, it's just around the corner. I don't have to go into the palace and suffer that sin. Hehehe. ”

Zhong Lixiang wiped her tears, she knew her senior brother too well. She had no choice but to promise him first. Chen Mu said that he was going to the city to meet the two women and then would come back. At that time, tell Chen Mu everything, and then go away with Chen Mu.

So Zhong Lixiang agreed to Leng Bingyan.

Leng Bingyan nodded with satisfaction: "Senior sister, our good days are still ahead." Don't let this little white face fool you. Don't forget, with him, your life will be ruined. I have been frightened all my life, and I can't tell when a catastrophe will come. Also, what kind of thing is he? When the first emperor was alive, did the royal family publicly recognize him? It's just a wild seed! Would you like to be a daughter-in-law for a wild seed? Giving birth to wild seeds? ”

"Senior brother, don't say it, I've already agreed."

Leng Bingyan seemed to have something to say, but seeing Zhong Lixiang's ugly face, he stopped talking.

turned around, took two steps, and tilted his head slightly: "When the time comes, don't forget your oath!" ”

Cold and cold, born as a high-grade assassin, acts like the wind, and disappears in a flash.

Zhongli Xiang stabilized her mind and wanted to hurry back to the house to be quiet.

But at this time, a thin figure appeared in Zhong Lixiang's sight.

"Crippled?"

"Girl, you can fool Zhao Mu, but you can't fool me."

"It turns out that you also know that he is Zhao Mu."

"I knew he was Zhao Mu for a long time."

"How do you know?"

"Because the letter is in my hand!" The cripple approached, with a touch of murderous aura on his body, and reached out to grab Zhong Lixiang's neck.

Zhong Lixiang thought that with his own combat strength, he was still very sure of beating an old pawn, but he didn't expect that he was grabbed by the cripple and couldn't move.

"You...... You old thing...... You're a liar. You lied to Zhao ...... You lied to Chen Mu, you lied to him a lot of things......"

"Huh. I didn't just lie to him. I also lied to everyone. ”

"You...... You can't die a good ......, you ...... You...... Who is it? ”

"You are still young, you may not have heard of it, when you were on the Hebei station, the fifteenth division of Shence that broke the seventh battalion in one battle, and the eighth-rank general." The lame's hand became tighter and tighter: "Huo Hongxun! ”
