When Mu Zhufeng returned to the General's Mansion, he asked the Shadow to gather everyone, and the Shadow knew that the General was preparing to kill Xie Yutang.

"General, everything is ready, when are we leaving."

Mu Zhufeng looked at the sun that was still shining, "At night, in the suburbs." ”

"Yes, this is the deployment of subordinates." The shadow retreated.

Mu Zhufeng stood in the study, looking at the courtyard outside with cold eyes, Xie Yutang went to send disaster relief silver to the victims in the south, which was originally sent by the deputy general, but the king of Chu was not at ease and sent Xie Yutang to investigate.

If it weren't for wanting to investigate, he really didn't know that Xie Yutang had gone out, and when he went to court, he still said that Xie Yutang was recuperating in the mansion, and he still wondered how Xie Yutang could get sick.

Now the result of the investigation is that Xie Yutang really went out.

And even if he comes back tonight, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't look for him today, he will also kill Xie Yutang.

Night fell quickly, Mu Zhufeng sat at the dining table to eat, today's meal was a lot earlier, Chi Wan was still very strange, why did he eat at this hour.

"Feng'er, why is it so early today?" The old lady also asked curiously.

Mu Zhufeng smiled slightly: "Because there are some other things at night, I am afraid that I will not be able to eat with you, so I will advance it." As he spoke, he sandwiched a piece of food for the old lady.

There is a scene of mother-loving and filial piety.

When Ji Wan came in, she saw such a scene, and she couldn't help but doubt it.

"Wan'er, hurry up, I specially asked the kitchen to make your favorite dishes." Mu Zhufeng looked at Chi Wan in a daze, and shouted.

Ji Wan retracted her gaze and walked in.

Chi Wan sat beside Mu Zhufeng and looked at the dishes on the table, which were generally what she liked to eat and what the old lady loved to eat.

Until now, she really didn't know what Mu Zhufeng liked to eat, and of course she wouldn't deliberately ask about it.

"What is the general going to do in a moment?"

"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who told me to do something at night, so I came to dinner early." Mu Zhufeng's expression did not loosen at all, but was very indifferent, as if it was a very relaxed period, and he couldn't see any emotion.

Chi Wan's brows were furrowed, there must be something going on here.

After dinner, Chi Wan sat in the room and thought about what Mu Zhufeng was doing tonight, he was a general, and he would not be needed for ordinary things, unless there was something at the border.

Mu Zhufeng is ready here, go directly to the suburbs, choose a more remote place, the suburbs are very close to the city gate, if the people guarding the gate hear it, they will definitely come back to support.

So the farther away the better.

Mu Zhufeng and the others were wearing night clothes, everyone was masked, and their swords were sharp, and they were going to complete this task tonight.

"General, they're coming."

The shadow whispered.

Mu Zhufeng gestured with his big hand and told them to get ready.

Naturally, everyone else is prepared.

Xie Yutang and the others rode horses, and there were not many people with them, and this time they were mainly to investigate the corruption of disaster relief silver. Naturally, you can't treat a lot of people.

Mu Zhufeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he waved his big hand.

All the people rushed out.

Xie Yutang found the figure of the other person, and he didn't know who it was, but it was certain that the old man was not good, so he directly drew his sword and rushed forward.

Zou Qi was the first to rush forward, and the two sides rushed directly to fight.

Xie Yutang and Mu Zhufeng fought against each other, when Mu Zhufeng and Xie Yutang fought on the mountain before, obviously they didn't take any advantage, if they didn't threaten Chi Wan at that time, they wouldn't have seriously injured Xie Yutang.

But now Xie Yutang is fearless.

Xie Yutang knew that the current situation could only be a quick solution, there were too many people on the other side, and they were all masters, so it was clear that they were just to kill them, and they would not rest.

Xie Yutang ran to the city gate while fighting, as long as the people guarding the city gate heard it, they would bring someone over to help, after all, there was still a huge disparity in the number of people between them.

Mu Zhufeng saw through his thoughts, and his attack became even more ruthless, his eyes were scarlet, and the hatred in his eyes was undisguised.

Xie Yutang was already guessing who this person was, this kind of skill was very familiar, but this kind of look, he couldn't be more familiar, it was Mu Zhufeng, he showed such a look last time he was on the mountain.

I really didn't expect him to rob him here.

"Brother, go to the city gate." Xie Yutang shouted to his subordinates, and there were not many people left to bring out.

But the more this happened, the more he couldn't let them die.

When everyone heard Xie Yutang's voice, they also knew that they should run to the city gate as much as possible.

The people guarding the city gate were originally idle, and when they heard the sound of fighting near the suburbs, no matter who it was, they rushed forward directly with their soldiers.

When Mu Zhufeng was about to succeed, the soldiers guarding the city gate had already come, and their scarlet eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.

But you can't continue to entangle, otherwise you will be the one who suffers, once the matter is big, the emperor will track it down, and it will be all over.

The shadow also noticed that something was wrong and shouted, "Withdraw." ”

Everyone heard the sound and retreated directly.

Xie Yutang looked at their fleeing backs and fell into deep thought.

Zou Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them leaving, "Master, who do you think will die?" ”

Xie Yutang panted and looked at their backs, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't say anything.

When the city guards came over, they saw Xie Yutang saluting directly, and they were also familiar with Xie Yutang, but they didn't expect to die here.

Zou Qi stepped forward to explain.

Xie Yutang left directly, leaving everything to Zou Qi, and the King of Chu was still waiting for news from him.

Mu Zhufeng returned home angrily, thinking that he would almost kill him after walking so far, and the shadow looked at the general's angry appearance.

just obediently stood aside.

In the early dynasty, the prince saw Xie Yutang standing in front of him intact, and immediately became angry, looking at Mu Zhufeng angrily.

Mu Zhufeng's face was not much better.

When the emperor went to court, his face was also ugly, and the ministers felt depressed, and they all wondered in their hearts, what happened to the emperor?

"I, I have filled my pockets with the relief money sent to others, and now that they have been seized, what can you say about it?" The emperor looked at his courtiers, and his eyes were full of anger.

The prince was slightly stunned, and looked at Xie Yutang, his face as ugly as he looked.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that such a person should be beheaded immediately. Set an example. One of the ministers stood up and spoke righteously.

"Well, I know too, and you should also know what the disaster relief silver means." The emperor glanced at the minister coldly.

"The minister thinks that he can investigate carefully to see who has the courage to fill his own pocket." The people on King Chu's side suddenly proposed.

The prince's face can be compared to Mo.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers also think so, after all, there will be two if there is one, if there is a next time, one eye will still be detained, and it will be repeated again when the time comes."

"Well, I think so too, what do you think, prince?" The emperor suddenly turned his gaze to the side of the crown prince. I saw his face before he had time to retract his expression.

"Father, the son thinks that what he said is extremely true, such a person must not be spared lightly, and let the people fall into fire and water."

The emperor took his expression into his eyes, and a chill flashed away.

"Just follow this clue and investigate, and you must find the mastermind behind the scenes." When the emperor gave an order, everyone lowered their heads one after another, and they had all kinds of expressions.

"This time it's all thanks to Xie Yutang's guards, if it weren't for you, I would have been kept in the dark now. I must be rewarded. The emperor praised Xie Yutang unabashedly.

Xie Yutang saluted, "Thank you for the emperor's reward." ”

The faces of the crown prince and Mu Zhufeng could be described as dark clouds, and the eyes of the two of them were like sharp swords, shooting directly towards Xie Yutang.

King Chu smiled slightly, taking their expressions into his eyes.

Mu Zhufeng followed the prince back to the prince's mansion, and the first thing the prince did when he went back was to smash things, and scolded Mu Zhufeng angrily, "Aren't you completely prepared?" Is this what you're prepared for? ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister was indeed about to succeed last night, but the soldiers guarding the city gate came." Mu Zhufeng is not too quibble, it is a fact that he failed.

"Okay, don't quibble, failure is failure, no matter how much you say, it's useless, now Xie Yutang has actually found out about the disaster relief funds, I'm afraid we will be inconvenient in the future." The more the prince thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't wait to cut Xie Yutang with a thousand knives now.

Mu Zhufeng frowned, and he couldn't force anything to say anything, he failed the fact, but this time he also felt that the prince was disappointed in him.

"You go back first, now Xie Yutang can't move for the time being, my father 'attaches great importance to him', you must not make a move now and set yourself on fire."

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince."

Mu Zhufeng's face was ugly when he returned to the mansion, and the housekeeper and his subordinates knew that he was in a bad mood when they saw the general like this, and no one dared to approach, for fear of offending the general.

Mu Zhufeng was very disappointed in his heart, but he still wanted to see Chi Wan, thinking so in his heart, but his feet were thinking about Chi Wan's direction.

Chi Wan sat in the courtyard, taking care of those flowers, now the business in the store is very good, occasionally send the design drawings over, and then stay in the mansion, lest the old lady will talk about her every time, there is no need to cause unnecessary trouble in the general's mansion now.

"Miss, the general is back, I heard that the mood doesn't seem to be very good, and everyone doesn't dare to approach." Xiuxiu walked in from outside with a snack, talking as she walked.

Ji Wan was still fiddling with the flowers, unmoved.

Xiaobi and Xiaohe glanced at each other and said, "Madam, aren't you going to take a look?" ”

"No, he'll be over in a minute." Chi Wan said without raising her head, and sure enough, not long after, Mu Zhufeng's figure appeared in her courtyard.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Mu Zhufeng's figure to appear in front of Chi Wan's courtyard, and Xiaobi and Xiaohe found that what Mrs. said was really accurate.
