Chapter Seventy-Three: Saved
Just when the old man was holding a torch in his hand, and the torch was about to be thrown into Mo Ziyu's remaining firewood, a long arrow suddenly pierced the night sky and shot straight into his chest.
The old man was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground and died.
The scene was chaotic.
There were escort runners who wanted to arrest people, and at the same time, the onlookers were terrified, afraid that their place had been discovered by Beixia.
Qi Muxuan, who was watching all this on the hillside, frowned, and hurriedly shouted: "Come on, catch people!" In addition, the time of the sacrifice cannot be delayed, and another person will continue to light the fire. ”
He looked in the direction where the arrow was fired, and just saw Qiu Ming putting the bow down.
His eyes narrowed slightly, Qiu Ming, is he a lot of relatives?
At this time, a team of centaurs suddenly came out, and the leader was Cai Jing, he looked at the scene in front of him, and then saw that Mo Ziyu was tied up, and was startled, if he came half a step late, there would be no antidote!
"Hurry up and save Miss Jiang!" Cai Jing himself held a knife and shouted to the officers and soldiers beside him, "These people are a chaotic party, don't let any of them go!"
At this chaotic moment, Cai Jing rushed straight in front of Mo Ziyu and cut the rope on her body with a knife: "The loss came in time, if you come half a step late, it will be bad!"
"Lord Cai?" Mo Ziyu asked softly.
"It's Xiaguan, Xiaguan is here to save the girl!" Cai Jing hurriedly said, "Girl, please come with Xiaguan, Xiaguan will take the girl out!"
Seeing that Mo Ziyu didn't move, he thought she was injured, so he called two guards to step forward, helped Mo Ziyu get off the altar, and went outside.
However, with Qi Muxuan personally in command, the chaotic scene was quickly controlled, and the angry crowd rushed up, wanting to devour Mo Ziyu and his party alive!
There are not many masters here, and these people brought by Cai Jing are not his opponents at all, and they have suffered heavy losses in a short period of time!
"This ...... Who are these people!There are still these masters hidden in the territory of Nanchu!" Cai Jing said in a trembling voice, "What should I do now!"
Mo Ziyu's face was calm, and she suddenly let out a few short whistles.
Cai Jing hurriedly said on the side: "At this time, Miss Jiang is still in the mood to whistle?"
Not long after Mo Ziyu's whistle was blown, there was a sudden sound of flapping wings, and as he spoke, he saw flocks of birds flying all over the sky.
These usually docile and fearful birds seem to be crazy at the moment, frantically attacking the crowd below.
At the same time, the beasts hidden in the forest began to move, rushing in this direction, roaring and revealing their sharp fangs.
The rest of Mulan didn't expect that there would be so many birds and beasts, so they had to deal with it in a hurry.
Cai Jing was so frightened that his whole body trembled: "This ...... What's going on?"
Mo Ziyu said coldly: "What are you hesitating about, take advantage of the chaos!"
"Yes! Yes!" Cai Jing hurriedly said, "Let's go, let's go!"
As he spoke, he took the rest of the people and protected Mo Ziyu to escape outside while he was in chaos.
Qi Muxuan took everything in his eyes, he called the matchmaker, and said: "I still underestimated Jiang Liu, this girl, I can't let her leave today no matter what, so let the brothers outside prepare." ”
"Yes. ”
Just when the matchmaker was about to leave, a black shadow suddenly fell, she hurriedly turned around and made a move, the person who came took two steps back, and said, "Girl, stop!"
This person is none other than Hao Ding, Mi Zi's personal guard.
"Is that you?" the matchmaker frowned, "What are you doing here?"
"Your Majesty wants to meet Qi Gongzi. ”
"Your Majesty is here?" the matchmaker turned her head to look at Qi Muxuan and asked what he meant.
Qi Muxuan's face also changed, isn't today his wedding day?
"Where is Your Majesty now?" Qi Muxuan asked.
"Cai Fu. Hao Ding said, "According to Your Majesty's intentions, if you still hope that the two sides can continue to cooperate, if you still want to use the power of Nanchu to restore the country, don't attack Jiang Liu, this is his bottom line." If something happens to Jiang Liu, there is no possibility of cooperation between the two of them in the future, and Nanchu will not be able to tolerate the Mulan people. ”
Qi Muxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and then the corners of his mouth twitched: "I know, matchmaker, you go and tell the brothers outside, let them not act rashly, and let Mo Ziyu leave." ”
"Yes. The matchmaker glanced at Hao Ding coldly, and then left.
"I'll go see Your Majesty now. Qi Muxuan said, "We really should have a good talk about it." ”
"Your Majesty has been waiting for Gongzi Qi all along!" Hao Ding lightly, "Gongzi Qi, please!"
On the other side, Cai Jing escaped from the forest with Mo Ziyu and came to a pipeline outside.
He panted and said: "It's safe, there are no chasing soldiers chasing after us, today is really blessed by God, there are birds and beasts to help us!
"I'm blind. Mo Ziyu said lightly, "This is not the place to talk, go to your house!"
"Okay!" Cai Jing said, "The antidote to the lower official? The lower official has already done what the girl told him and saved the girl, can the girl give the antidote?"
"Don't worry, I won't break my word. Mo Ziyu said, "When we are safe, I will give you the antidote!"
At this time, Qiu Ming also rushed over, hugged his fist at Mo Ziyu and said: "I didn't understand the situation before, and the girl almost had an accident, Qiu Ming is here to make amends to you." ”
"It doesn't matter. Mo Ziyu said, "What will happen later, I'm afraid you can't predict it." All in all, this is not a place to stay for a long time, let's leave first!"
Subsequently, the group rushed to Cai's house.
Before entering the mansion, Cai Jing said: "Miss Jiang, there is still a noble person in the mansion?"
"Noble?" Mo Ziyu frowned, "What person?"
"The girl will know when she sees it!" Cai Jing said, "Presumably the girl was also frightened a lot today, so the girl should go and freshen up first!"
Then he called two maids and took Mo Ziyu down to freshen up first, while he went to the nobleman to return to his life.
Coming to the door of the nobleman's room, Cai Jing clasped his fists at Hao Ding and said, "Xia Guan is fortunate to save Miss Jiang without dishonoring his life, and he specially came to repay His Majesty." ”
"There is someone in Your Majesty's room now, you can wait a moment. Hao Ding said, "But you did a very good job today, and Your Majesty is very satisfied." ”
"That's good!" Cai Jing smiled proudly, "Your Majesty is satisfied!"
In the room, Qi Zi was talking to Qi Muxuan, and both of them looked very gloomy.
"I've warned you more than once, don't touch her!" Mi Zi said coldly, "You don't seem to have taken my words to heart. ”
"I just want to eliminate the hidden danger in advance for Your Majesty. Qi Muxuan said, "Today was supposed to be the day of His Majesty's wedding, but His Majesty came here for this woman, which is enough to show that this woman has a great influence on Your Majesty, and keeping her is also a threat to Your Majesty." ”
"You mean, I should also thank you for taking credit for you?" Qi Zi said sarcastically, "It's just that others don't know, you don't know my feelings for her? I know but I repeatedly provoke, which shows that you haven't taken me seriously at all! Since the two sides want to cooperate in the future, you are too insincere!"
"Your Majesty, it has always been my wish to restore the country, and it is impossible for me to be insincere. Qi Muxuan said, "It's just that Jiang Liu already knows too many secrets about Mulan, Jiang Liu knows that Liu Xu will know, she can't stay, otherwise it will be a threat to Mulan." ”
"Then you should kill the person who leaked the secret you wanted to keep. Qi Zi said, "He is not dead, he can say this to Jiang Liu, and he can also say it to other people in the future." ”
"Your Majesty, the overall situation is important!" Qi Muxuan persuaded in a serious tone.
"I should tell you these four words. Qi Zi smiled faintly, "Don't touch her, this is my last warning! With Mulan's current power, without the help of Southern Chu and Western Wei, it is impossible to restore the country! We all have hatred for Northern Xia and have a common purpose, I hope we can be consistent in this regard, and there are no other factors to disturb us." ”
Qi Muxuan gritted his teeth: "I understand." ”
Qi Zi said again: "You should still have a lot of things to deal with, right?"
"Yes. Qi Muxuan said, "Then I'll leave first." ”
Qi Muxuan left, Cai Jing glanced at it from a distance, felt that the person was strange, and wanted to ask but didn't dare.
At this time, Hao Ding said: "You go in to see Your Majesty." ”
"Yes. Cai Jing entered with a little weakness, and when he had the opportunity to kneel, he almost fell to the ground, "The minister greets Your Majesty." ”
"Get up. Qi Zi said lightly, "Everyone is back?"
"I'm back, at this moment, Miss Jiang went to freshen up, and the minister specially came to report to Your Majesty. Cai Jing said.
"Well done. Qi Zi said softly, "By the way, you also arrested that kid from the Zhao family before, right?"
"He tried to bribe the minister and let the minister do things for his Zhao family, but the minister thought that the minister was the minister of Southern Chu and a servant of His Majesty, so how could he do things for him?
"The Zhao family was very arrogant before, and your hand can be said to have made the Zhao family lose face and mess up, so that my plan in the south can start the war more smoothly, and I still have to take credit to you for this matter!"
"It's all the duty of the minister, and the minister doesn't dare to take credit!" Cai Jing said secretly happily.
"When I say you are meritorious, you are meritorious. Mi Zi said, "You step down first, I still have to live here for a few days, and the news of me here is not allowed to leak out, otherwise it will ......."
"The minister understands, the minister must be tight-lipped!" Cai Jing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said.
