Qiu Yue happened to be in the palace when the news of the disaster of the 6,000-person sailor reached the governor's mansion, so Liu Mingyan did not need to hide it from him, but knew more about it because he knew the origin of the purple thunder, but in addition to him, Liu Mingyan guarded the news of the heavy damage of the Baisha camp very strictly, lest it leak into the ears of the Imulan people, so he didn't dare to mention it until he saw Zhu Zhitong, and even Lu Xingyuan, who had arrived a few days first, was the first time he heard of it.

Zhu Zhitong sighed: "It's really a disaster, the Blue Sea Golden Feather Battalion has been wiped out, and now the Baisha Battalion has been hit hard and there are less than 10,000 people, I can't imagine that my Blue Sea Famous Naval Army will fall to such a point." ”

Lu Xingyuan admonished on the side: "Since the matter has come to this point, the minister suggests that Your Majesty let Governor Liu rest and reorganize the Baisha camp to recover its vitality." ”

This is exactly what Liu Mingyan wanted to say, but as soon as Zhu Zhitong said that she wanted to save people, she mentioned the matter of resting and recuperating, which seemed a little raised, Lu Xingyuan was an old man in the court, and he knew his mind when he heard her mention the suffering, so he said it for her. This made Liu Mingyan suddenly feel a lot more relaxed and cast a grateful look.

Zhu Zhitong said: "The Imurans are also powerless to pursue us now, and the Southern Xinjiang Governor's Mansion is still safe for the time being. Then the rebuilding of the White Sands camp will have to be carried out at the same time, but it takes a lot of money to recruit troops, and I don't have that much ...... on hand."

Liu Mingyan listened to her meaning and would not let herself send troops for the time being, and said happily: "Your Majesty don't worry, the minister has gold ingots here." ”

"Huh? Where did you get your gold ingots? ”

Liu Mingyan pointed to her feet, "The bottom cabin of this Kuntou ship is full of newly minted gold ingots on Nanhua Island, and Princess Qing Yun borrowed the Kuntou ship from me to transport gold ingots, as well as her handwritten letters, Your Majesty can take a look." As he spoke, he took out the letter sent by Wang Weishou, the prefect of Qingzhou at that time.

Zhu Zhitong looked at it, and sure enough, it was her sister's handwriting, which was familiar and clear, and she almost couldn't help crying again. She praised: "Okay, good, good, my sister really prepared a big gift for me." ”

"At that time, Princess Qingyun was afraid that the gold ingots would be too big and there would be an accident, so she specially borrowed this gold ingot from the minister and transported it to the capital of Taiye State, but before it could be delivered, there was a fight in Linzhou."

Liu Mingyan's rhetoric is actually a lie, and Zhu Zhitong can also see it.

The date of the letter to borrow a ship to transport the gold ingots was a few months earlier, and the gold ingots had not been transported to the national capital in the past few months, not that Liu Mingyan dared to swallow them privately, but that she saw Zhu Zhiling die suddenly, thinking that no one should know about the gold ingots, so it was better to fish in troubled waters and put it here first. Later, after the water master suffered, she also wanted to use this gold ingot to recruit troops and horses, after all, the Baisha camp was her most important foundation. It happened that Zhu Zhitong was here, so he simply donated the gold ingot, and by the way, he cleared the suspicion of corruption.

Zhu Zhitong has been immersed in her sister Zhu Zhiling all the year round, and it is not difficult to guess such a trick in the court, but she has always been unconcerned about herself. At the moment, she guessed the reason and still didn't squeak, because she felt that since the money had been taken out and Liu Mingyan was the person to be used, there was no need to dig deeper. As for how much Liu Mingyan has used privately in that batch of gold ingots, there is no need to elaborate on the details.

She looked at Qiu Yueshi and said, "No matter what, this time, in addition to Liu Mingyan, I will also remember Qiu Yuejun's kindness." But can you please help me one more time and rescue my sister from the imperial capital for me...... He will do my best to repay the blue sea. ”

Qiu Yueshi rarely saw her ask herself so solemnly, and immediately replied: "Your Majesty is serious, now is the time to employ people, although I Liuxia has not many people left, but Bi."

The sea has a deep relationship with Liuxia, and the nine serpentine ships and more than 1,500 people this time are already half of my Qiuyue clan, and I am willing to let them be driven by Your Majesty. ”

Akizuki Zongzhi and Washio also bowed their heads and saluted, obviously prepared in their hearts.

Su Xiaochen saw that Qiu Yue was very sincere, and secretly thought, he didn't know what he meant by this origin, but he could actually make him hand over the lives of his clansmen to Xiao Tong. He and Xiao Tong are not monarchs and ministers, but they have a broken friendship, which is really incomprehensible, and you have to ask Xiao Tong when you go back.

Zhu Zhitong saw that Qiu Yue was really happy to agree, and her gratitude suddenly rose, she turned to Liu Mingyan and said: "Okay, let's go our separate ways, although the serpentine ship is small, it must be fast after all." There are many good hands in the Fog Hidden Flow among the Liuxia people, who are most suitable for acting in secret, and Master Su is also clear about the situation in the Wanhua Imperial Capital, and I will take a serpentine ship with them to save people in the Wanhua Imperial Capital. Please Prime Minister Lu and Governor Liu to regain their strength in southern Xinjiang, and then take good care of my aunt, let's wait until my sister is rescued, and then make a plan, if there is any news during the period, please Ato and Ah Kui will express it on their behalf. Great Su ...... Will you go with me to save my sister? ”

"Where you go, I naturally want to protect you, not to mention that I also plan to go back to the imperial capital, Uncle You's Cangwu rivers and mountains, I'm afraid it will be chaos soon." Su Xiaochen couldn't help but worry when he thought of the Chang family that Wen Lan had mentioned to him.

Uncle...... What exactly are you plotting?

Qiu Yue Shi said: "Okay, since Your Majesty has made up his mind, then Qiu Yue should help him." There is another person, I also brought Uncle Clan this time, he is already healed from his injuries, and I think it is time for His Majesty to decide how to settle him. ”

As he spoke, he motioned to the left and right to bring someone in.

Soon, two attendants pushed over a four-wheeled cart, and there was a man sitting in the cart, although he looked a little weak, but he was in good spirits.

I heard two people stand up at the same time, and exclaimed:

"Uncle You?"

"Sir?"

It was Su Xiaochen and Zhu Yuxiao.

However, the two soon found out that the person who came was not Mu Yunyou.

Especially Zhu Yuxiao, who has been in the same bed for 24 years, can be recognized even the slightest difference.

In fact, everyone knows that Mu Yunyou has already passed away.

The person in this car was the left Taishi of Cangwu Kingdom who was beaten into the Hanjiang River by Yinhua that day, and Mu Yunyou's twin brother Mu Yunzuo.

Facing Su Xiaochen and Zhu Yuxiao's fiery gaze, Mu Yunzuo didn't seem to care, he didn't even look at the two of them.

Su Xiaochen looked at Qiu Yueshi suspiciously, hoping that he could give some explanation.

"On the Hanjiang River that day, this person was beaten into the water after being drugged, Ah Teng and Ah Kui desperately rescued him, we saw that he was extraordinary, and seemed to be a valuable identity, so he took care of his life, and that day, His Majesty happened to be by the river."

Zhu Zhitong took over Qiu Yueshi's words, nodded and said: "Da Su, Qiu Yuejun is right, that day on the Fengtou ship, it was Yinhua who used drugs to charm him, and then blew up the ship, wanting to create the illusion of a shipwreck. Thanks to the help of the people of Liuxia, he was rescued. At first, I didn't know who he was, but looking at his clothes and the weapons he was wearing, I guessed that he must have a relationship with the Muyun clan, so I asked Qiuyuejun to take care of him. It turns out that he is your Uncle You's brother, and that's so good, he almost died at the hands of Yinhua. ”

Su Xiaochen listened unbelievably, he had a strong relationship with Mu Yunyou, but he had almost no contact with Mu Yunzuo. Mu Yunzuo suspected

He is an irrelevant outsider and a junior, and every time he bumps into him in the Taishi Mansion, he ignores him, so Su Xiaochen can hide from him.

However, Mu Yunzuo in front of him has lost his former arrogance, and his eyes are still very peaceful, only when he looks closely, he will feel that there is some sluggishness in that peace, as if it is a trauma left over from the initial recovery from a serious illness.

Washio explained, "He has a misty and hidden spirit, and he has been holding his breath underwater for so long that his consciousness has not fully recovered after his body has recovered. It was not difficult for us to feed him, but he didn't seem to remember anything, neither the past nor the present. I always sit quietly like this, and look at everyone like that. ”

Zhu Yuxiao has always been wary of Mu Yunzuo in the mansion in the past.

At first, it was because when I entered the house, I found that the brothers were too similar, and I was afraid that I would make the wrong person, so I was extra careful. Fortunately, Zhu Yuxiao knew the art of contemplating the mind, so she could quickly distinguish that it was Mu Yunyou who was calm and peaceful, and it was Mu Yunzuo who was angry. When Mu Yunzuo was young, he sometimes wore clothes similar to his brother in a prank, deliberately stood in the courtyard and did not speak, waiting for Zhu Yuxiao to be fooled, but Zhu Yuxiao did not admit it once, because the temperament of the two brothers was too different.

But Mu Yunzuo in front of him has become a little bit like Mu Yunyou at that time, which is no wonder that Zhu Yuxiao recognized the wrong person in a trance.

She reached out to Mu Yunzuo's thin face with her right hand, and covered her chest with her left hand, knowing that it was not Mu Yunyou, she still didn't feel her mood agitated.

Master...... You've lost weight.

Xianyun five-flavor dish, don't eat it again.

Zhu Yuxiao couldn't hold it anymore, she sat on the ground and climbed Mu Yunzuo's hand, leaned on his knee and cried, and kept complaining: "Master, I was wrong, I failed ......"

Repentance, guilt, or debt? Zhu Yuxiao couldn't tell what it was like, but all his thoughts poured out on the person in front of him, although his expression was so wooden and unresponsive from beginning to end.

Su Xiaochen was the only person present who knew all the ins and outs of this Xianyun Wuwei Dish, although he was constantly looking for opportunities to question Zhu Yuxiao face to face, but he never heard her admit it in person, and now seeing that she finally said it, the big stone blocked in her heart seemed to have fallen to the ground, but then she felt a burst of emptiness.

Because Uncle You will never come back.

Remorse has the sole effect of punishment, not salvation.

Zhu Zhitong personally helped Zhu Yuxiao up, and said kind words to comfort and persuade. How can a person who is already an old man be happy and sad. Zhu Yuxiao stopped crying and pleaded: "Xiao'er, he ...... I'll take care of his daily life and diet in the future, okay? After all, I have spent a lot of time with him in the Taishi Mansion, and the two brothers have very similar preferences......"

Zhu Zhitong signaled that she didn't need to explain too much, and said with a slight smile: "It's good that my aunt wants to take care of him, and Da Su will definitely be grateful to my aunt." My mother's life was always very restrictive, and I hope that my aunt will be different and live a little more as she likes. ”

Zhu Yuxiao pressed her chest tightly again, her eyes full of gratitude.

No one knew that under her chest, what was pressed was the silk book that Mu Yunyou left behind for her at the end. Since Su Xiaochen took it out of the box of "Yun Ce" and handed it to her, he has never left his body.

She walked to the back of the car and personally pushed Mu Yunzuo out of the hall door slowly.

Master, if I owe you affection, let me pay him back little by little from today.
