Chapter Fifty-Six: A Brush with Death

"Holy Lord, in a few days it will be the birthday of the Queen Mother, and the concubine has something to ask for." Zhang Wan put a ginseng soup in Mu Jianyu's hand.

"Say it." Mu Jianyu drank the warm ginseng soup, wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and then raised his eyes to look at Zhang Wan.

"The queen mother's birthday, the harem is going to celebrate her birthday, and the princes are no exception, and the concubine wants to ask the holy Xu Yi'er to leave the palace and lift his grounding."

"You're interceding for Yi'er?" Mu Jianyu was a little displeased, after all, there are many ministers in the court who question Mu Lingyi's bloodline, and Mu Jianyu has always been hindered by the royal family's face, so he did not respond directly, but just imprisoned Mu Lingyi.

"The concubine knows what the saint is worried about, it's nothing more than that she feels that her sister has been deposed as a concubine, and she has been subjected to Ling Chi, Yi'er is her sister's child, and the saint still has a mustard in her heart, but, saint, if the queen mother doesn't see Yi'er on her birthday, the queen mother asks, how should the saint deal with it?" Zhang Wan knew very well what Mu Jianyu was thinking, but she couldn't say it.

"That's it, Rong Zhen think again." Mu Jianyu knew that no matter how this matter was, he would have to face it by himself in the end, rather than being asked by his mother, it was better to figure it out by himself first, "It's not too early, Concubine Xiao should rest early." I'm going back to make the folds. After speaking, Mu Jian Yu left Yulan Palace without looking back.

Mu Jianyu returned to the study and sat alone behind the dragon book case in a daze, and about half an hour later, Mu Jianyu called You Dexing: "You Dexing, you have someone to take back a piece of Jiang Quanyi and Zhang Rou's bones overnight." ”

"Holy Lord, you are ......" asked him to dig up the bones in the middle of the night, and anyone was terrified.

"Don't go yet!" Mu Jianyu's idea of wanting to explore to the end has been irrepressible since it came out.

"Yes." Seeing Mu Jianyu's thunder and anger, You Dexing crawled away.

"Let's go." Looking at the empty Lingcheng and the smell of death everywhere, Zhang Anxin was terrified and couldn't wait to leave here, but after leaving the Lingcheng, where could he go, he didn't think about it, at this time he just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

The carriage carried Zhang An and a few family members, squeaking and swaying to the city gate, but no one expected that the city gate could not be opened. The family tried everything they could, but the city gate was like being sealed, not moving, Zhang An'an was anxious, jumped out of the carriage, while scolding the family waste, while trying to get started, but he just walked to the city gate, a bucket of water fell from the sky, poured on everyone, the sudden water made the originally irritable Zhang An feel more angry, he touched his face indiscriminately, raised his head and scolded, the family members also followed suit, no one thought about how this bucket of water came from, just when everyone was scolding, another bucket of water fell from the sky, This time he was poured on his back, coughing instead of cursing, until this time, Zhang An saw a figure on the city tower with a rickety back flashing, when he was about to scold, only to feel the pain of a knife in his abdomen, the fishy sweet liquid rushed straight to his throat, a mouthful of blood sprayed on the ground, Zhang An instantly lay on the ground and was silent.

"You poisoned the people of a city for a girl, and today I will let you be buried with you!" Si Duhan slowly descended from the city tower along the stairs, and looked coldly at the people who fell to the ground and died, with a desolate smile on his face. Lingcheng, the place where he has lived all his life, is the only one left alive overnight. Si Duhan slowly walked towards the Rejuvenation Hall, he wanted to go back and get the tools, so that the villagers could be buried in the ground. The water secretly hidden in the basement of the ancestral hall is enough for me to drink for a while, and it is just right that after burying the villagers, it is time for me to go on the road.

"Sir, how long are we going to run?" It's been two or three days since he ran out, and Luan Pu'an hasn't slept well for two or three days, and he only feels chest tightness and shortness of breath and weakness in his limbs.

"Stop for a moment." Xue Bowen doesn't know where he is now. They took advantage of the night to escape, they wanted to go all the way south, run to a place they didn't know and live incognito for the rest of their lives, they didn't want to meet the wolves halfway, if it weren't for Luan Pu'an's skills, the three of them had to feed the wolves, and finally repelled the wolves, but the horse was frightened, messed up the direction, and did not overturn under Luan Pu'an's strong control, but now where he ran to, none of the three people know.

"Woo ......" Luan Pu'an stopped the horse, turned over and got out of the car, opened the curtain, helped Xue Bowen down, and left Fei'er to take a nap in the car, "Adult, come down and do the activities." ”

"Pu'an," Xue Bowen moved his hands and feet, looked around, and looked at the sky, he pointed in one direction and said, "Over there, that side is the south, let's run over there, and strive to find a town to settle down before dark, and don't call me an adult in the future, this time I finally picked up a life, I don't want to be an official anymore, and judging from the current situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to be an official." Xue Bowen smiled helplessly. After experiencing this life and death, Xue Bowen seems to have seen through a lot, what beauty, money, and career are not important to life.

"Okay, I've got some dry food here, you can eat some." Luan Pu'an saw that Xue Bowen was a little frustrated, and he didn't know how to comfort him, and after thinking about it for a long time, he felt that it might be caused by being tired and hungry, so he felt the burden of food in his arms.

"Pu'an, you eat too." Xue Bowen broke a piece of bread and put it in his mouth and chewed it vigorously. At this time, the deliciousness of this dry cake is worth the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the past, and Xue Bowen was a little moved in his heart.

"You Dexing, go and bring it to the Eleventh Prince." Mu Jianyu retired from the early dynasty, and finally made up his mind to face the reality, he recruited You Dexing to pick up Mu Lingyi, and he wanted to drop blood for a family test.

"Father." Mu Lingyi saw Mu Jianyu again, and hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye. After being confined for a long time, I saw Mu Jianyu again, and suddenly noticed that my father had aged a lot.

"Get up." Mu Jianyu replied coldly. Only then did Mu Lingyi see that in addition to Mu Jianyu, there were two ministers in the room. "You Dexing, bring a bowl of water."

"Holy not." The ministers stopped, "Holy Sacrament, how can it be destroyed." "These two were the ministers of the protectorate given by the emperor to Mu Jianyu during the previous dynasty.

"Then bring the bones of the two men." Mu Jianyu said that he wanted water, but it was just for show, in case Yi'er and his blood were not dissolved, wouldn't he lose face in public. You Dexing took the bones that were dug out the night before, because he was punished by Ling Chi, so at this time, the bones of these two sections were white, and there was no flesh and blood hanging on them.

"Yi'er, you come." Mu Jianyu's voice was so cold that it was about to freeze. Mu Lingyi didn't know what to do, since his father let him go, let's go over. "Yi'er, your biological mother was indecent, did dirty things, and your identity was also criticized, the most important thing for the royal family is blood, today, if you can prove that you are not the child of the adulterer, I will return your freedom and restore your status as a prince. If you are the child of the adulterer, go underground and accompany them. With that, he motioned for You Dexing to take blood and bones.

Yin Hong's blood dripped from Mu Lingyi's fingertips, and under everyone's gaze, it fell on Bai Sensen's bones, spun around, and slid down, the bones were still Bai Sensen's bones, and Yin Hong's blood fell to the ground.

"Father, you've tested it." Mu Lingyi's voice was extremely indifferent. He never thought that his father, who had been shouting for more than ten years, would question that he was not his child.

"Yes, I've tested it." Mu Jianyu nodded, and turned to look at the two ministers behind him, "You have all seen it too." ”

"Yes, Wechen saw it. The eleventh prince is indeed a royal bloodline, there is no doubt about it. The two ministers spoke in unison.

"You Dexing, send the eleventh prince back to the house, issue an edict tomorrow, seal the eleventh prince as the prince, give Yin Shizhong's daughter Yin Chuman as a good di, choose an auspicious day to enter the prince's mansion, and take care of the prince's diet and daily life. From today onwards, anyone who criticizes the status of the prince will be punished heavily. In addition, if Mu Linghuan is the king of Yu, you can leave the palace and choose another palace to live, and you will not be allowed to enter the palace without a summons! Mu Jianyu has long known where these criticisms came from in the previous dynasty, he had mentioned Hu Mengxi, but now it seems that instead of the slightest restraint, it has intensified, which is also an important factor for Mu Jianyu to finally make up his mind to drip blood for relatives, and he wants to seal Youyou's mouth with facts.

"Erchen knelt down to thank Longen." Mu Lingyi knelt in front of Mu Jianyu expressionlessly. Mu Lingyi was not very happy to be named the crown prince, and the girl who was given to him, he had never heard of it, in his opinion, that girl was to serve his diet and daily life, but it was better to say that his father sent him to monitor him.

"Let's go, go back to the Prince's Mansion and rest. Your stuff will be delivered to you later. Mu Jianyu didn't care about his son Mu Lingyi's performance, and waved his hand to send Mu Lingyi out.

"How?" Zhang Wan saw Xiao Shunzi return to the palace, and couldn't wait to recruit into the house.

"That's it. The eleventh prince has been named the crown prince, congratulations to the mother. Xiao Shunzi said in a low voice.

"Congratulations on what I'm doing?" Zhang Wan's face turned cold.

"The miscellaneous family is talkative, don't be angry, master." Xiao Shunzi has guessed the real thing through what Zhang Wan let him do, and he just wants to remind Zhang Wan like this, so that Zhang Wan will not cross the river and tear down the bridge, unload the mill and kill the donkey.

"Take what you deserve and shut my mouth." Zhang Wan's rare eyes showed a fierce light.

"The miscellaneous family understands, and the miscellaneous family retires." Xiao Shunzi smiled contemptuously at the corner of his mouth, and left Yulan Palace with a grovel.

"Hey, have you heard, that mausoleum city has become a dead city."

"Which mausoleum?"

"It's the mausoleum city that specializes in beauty."

"What's going on? Let's talk about it. ”

"A relative of mine, a few days ago, I wanted to go to Lingcheng to buy a house-filling girl, but I didn't expect the city gate to be closed, and there was a smoky stench at the city gate, my relative came back to report to the government, and the government took people over to smash the city gate, and there was no living person in the city, and there was no trace of smashing and looting, that is, the people were gone, only a few corpses at the city gate that had been unrecognizable."

"Yes, yes, I've heard about it, and I've heard that a corpse was also found in the pharmacy in that city, and I heard that it was starved to death, not to mention how terrifying it looks."

"What's wrong with Lingcheng......

"Who knows......"

As soon as the carriage of the troupe entered the city, he heard the tea customers in the teahouse talking about it. Mother Xu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, tried to restrain the fear in her heart, walked up to those people, and said shallowly: "What you said is true?" ”

"This lady is not from the city, right?" The tea drinkers looked Xu's mother up and down.

"Yes, I'm from out of town, I heard that the girl in Lingcheng is good-looking, I'm here to buy a house-filling girl for my lord. I just heard a few of you say that there is no one in Lingcheng? Mother Xu reluctantly smiled and lied.

"Then you may have to run away in vain this time, there are no living people in Lingcheng." The tea guest shook his head and said.

"Thank you...... Thank you......" Mother Xu seemed to have been drained of her soul, her feet shook twice, and when she saw that she was about to collapse to the ground, Hua Chen quickly helped Mother Xu back to the tea table.

"Yuluan, you quietly go buy some incense, candles, and paper money." Boss Gu's hands trembled slightly, and he could barely hold the walnuts.
