Gu Ningyue's clear and bright eyes revealed a hint of mockery, she looked at Mu Xuan and said, "My daughter lost it and changed to an ordinary family, and she also wanted to find it." If he hadn't done it on purpose, who would have dared to make up his mind to the prefect? ”

Mu Xuan didn't speak, he just sat there with his back straight, Lu Qingzi looked at him, obviously disagreeing with what Gu Ningyue said.

It's just that the sentence he just said has crossed the rules, he is just a guard, and those two sentences are not what he should say.

So at this moment, Lu Qingzi has some understanding of his silence.

"Even if that's the case, we have to get out of here now, not to mention that this matter has nothing to do with us, so we don't have to worry about it."

Lu Qingzi was originally kind enough to make a round, but who would have thought that Gu Ningyue sneered and suddenly said without a head: "Yes!" It's me who has a lot of trouble, and even if all the people of the city die in the city, I won't take it to heart. ”

Mu Xuan's lips moved, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Gu Ningyue said this, and the carriage fell into a terrible silence.

Lu Qingzi looked at the appearance of the two people, and didn't know why, but suddenly had a feeling in his heart that something must have happened between Mu Xuan and Gu Ningyue in the few days that he had not come.

Otherwise, even if Gu Ningyue is ruthless, she usually looks like a rose that has been plucked out of her thorns, no matter how she looks at it, she feels gentle, and she will not say such a thing.

Not only her, but even Mu Xuan, who is usually silent, actually argues against these irrelevant things?

Just when she was puzzled, the guard who was driving the carriage had already stopped the carriage, Lu Qingzi lifted the curtain of the window and took a look, at this moment she had arrived at the gate of the city, and there were two soldiers doing a routine inspection.

The rules of Qingfeng City are really confusing.

Even in the capital, if there is no murder, this city gate is not for everyone who passes by.

Lu Qingzi thought about it, and always felt a little uneasy, and at this time for a routine inspection, she couldn't help but worry in her heart.

Mu Xuan asked Lu Qingzi and Gu Ningyue to wait in the car first, and then got up and got out of the carriage.

Several people looked at Mu Xuan, Mu Xuan secretly stuffed a piece of loose silver, and the two guards' originally stiff faces immediately smiled, and they directly let the three people who were still in the car go.

Mu Xuan took the whip from the guard and did not enter the carriage again.

After they had gone, the guard guarding the gate weighed the silver in his hand, and the smile on his face became a little strange.

"Go tell Commander Zhang!" The guard smiled and said, "This looks like a fat sheep!" ”

On the carriage, although Lu Qingzi had long known that money could make ghosts grind, today was the first time he had seen the power of this silver.

Mu Xuan was driving outside, and Lu Qingzi took this opportunity to ask Gu Ningyue, "What's the matter with you and Mu Xuan?" Why is it suddenly annoyed? ”

Gu Ningyue's appearance just now was obviously angry.

It's just that Lu Qingzi didn't know that Mu Xuan, who was so quiet, would anger Gu Ningyue with just one sentence?

No matter what he said, Lu Qingzi didn't believe it.

Gu Ningyue leaned in one place, and a sneer crossed the corner of her mouth: "You should ask him." ”

Lu Qingzi was silent and stopped talking.

The carriage drove all the way out of Qingfeng City, not taking the official road, but choosing a relatively close path to walk.

It didn't take long for Lu Qingzi to suddenly hear the sound of horses' hooves chasing after their carriage from behind.

Mu Xuan turned his head and said to the guard sitting beside him, "It's from Qingfeng City." ”

The guard nodded, and immediately turned to the inside of the carriage and said, "Someone in Qingfeng City has chased you out." ”

Lu Qingzi panicked, "How many people?" ”

Mu Xuan glanced back and said, "Five people." ”

Lu Qingzi has a calculation in his heart, the five of them are quite easy to deal with, and with Mu Xuan and the two of them, they must not be treated like this.

Thinking so, Lu Qingzi shouted outside: "Find a hidden place to stop and see what they are going to do." ”

"Yes."

The two men replied, looked for an open space, and stopped the carriage.

When the five people arrived in front of them, they immediately turned over and dismounted, and came to Mu Xuan and the guard.

The guard looked at them and said, "Who is Brother Tai?" Why do you keep chasing me and waiting? ”

The person at the head saw that his face was gentle, but Mu Xuan beside him looked very vicious, and he didn't dare to be too arrogant for a while.

He only looked at them and said, "You went out of the city without permission and did not accept the search, either take out fifty taels of silver, or go back to prison with us, you can choose for yourself!" ”

Mu Xuan and the two glanced at each other, and mockery appeared in their eyes.

"It was the guard who let us go without searching, how can we be considered to have left the city without permission?"

There was already some coldness in the guard's voice, and the originally gentle face now looked a little murderous.

The five men looked at the two of them and said, "It was the guard who guarded the gate who reported your carriage to the chariot that you refused to be searched and fled from the city without permission. ”

When Mu Xuan heard their words, he immediately understood why the guards were so happy to receive and release at that time, it turned out that they were waiting for them here.

Lu Qingzi also understood their conversation in the car, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

The prefect of Qingfeng City, not to mention forcibly collecting the silver, is it good now, is this going to rob it clearly?

"What if we don't give it?" Mu Xuan looked at a few of them, and his body already exuded a terrifying killing intent.

He hated corrupt officials the most, not to mention that these people waited for them to go out of the city gate to do such a dirty thing.

The five people were shocked by this murderous aura, but they still said stiffly, "We are from the Qingfeng City Mansion, do you two still want to do anything with us?" ”

Before the words fell, Mu Xuan had already stepped in front of him, and a knife slashed the person who spoke to the ground.

The remaining four people saw that their boss had fainted on the ground, and when they stopped talking nonsense, they rushed up to the two of them with a knife.

It's just that these four people haven't survived a few rounds before they have been beaten to the ground.

Just when Mu Xuan was about to knock out the last one who was still awake, Lu Qingzi's voice suddenly came: "Stop!" ”

Mu Xuan turned his head and saw that Lu Qingzi didn't know when he had already stepped out of the carriage.

He looked at the man under his knife and slowly withdrew the other hand that had gone around the back of his neck.

Lu Qingzi came to the man, and looked at the corner of his mouth with a smile, "Is the notice posted at the city gate the prefect's idea, or the idea of the city lord of Qingfeng City?" Well? ”
