First time in the rivers and lakes Chapter 12 The Mu family is stormy and surging
Seeing this housekeeper of Mu Mansion, his own brother Mu Pengli came to find him, Mu Yingshu, who had not asked about family affairs for many years, had a smile on his face and said, "I remember the last time you came to me, how many years ago. I don't think you like my small courtyard for a long time, why, the fourth brother came here today, do you have something important to report?"
Mu Pengli was rude, arched his hand, and said, "If you don't usually come, you really don't dare to disturb the second brother's cultivation." This time, it was Ya'er who replied. β
Mu Yingshu said lightly: "Ya'er is indispensable to the Mu family, and she can be a big responsibility, and the fourth brother is really blessed." β
Mu Pengli said in a deep voice: "The fifth brother has endured for many years, and this time he finally made a move on him and cleaned him up." However, Ya'er also suffered heavy losses. There is one subject missing in this sentence, Mu Pengli did not say the head of the family directly, because he wanted to know Mu Yingshu's specific reaction.
Sure enough, Mu Yingshu's reaction made Mu Pengli's heart gradually cold. He said, "Heavy losses, slow down, what hand to move? Who let the hand move?"
"Isn't it the head of the family that you acquiesced in?" Mu Pengli asked loudly. "If it weren't for the head of the family, how could Ya'er dare to attack her fifth uncle?
"Fourth brother is questioning me? That's right, the fourth brother has held the power of life and death of my Mu family over the years, and he has also paid a lot for my Mu family, and he has made great contributions, and he can indeed commit the following crimes. Mu Yingshu directly put a hat on Mu Pengli, and then said lightly, "But don't forget, if I hadn't delegated power to you, you really thought you would have been able to do so many great things over the years." The arrogance and reminder in his words were completely inconsistent with his fairy bones.
Mu Pengli lowered his head, he didn't argue much for his family and daughter, he just wanted to know the truth of this matter.
"But if there is no indication from the head of the family, how can my daughter act like this? once this matter is revealed, my line will be completely spurned, and Ya'er will be charged with great rebellion. My branch is about to be completely kicked out of the Mu family. Even if this matter is successful, the fifth brother will definitely not be able to come back. What does Big Brother Yu have to explain?" Mu Pengli's words were a little sad about the death of his fifth brother. He was even more worried about the chain reaction caused by the death of these five brothers.
When Mu Yingshu heard this, she gradually understood. It turned out that someone was pretending to be instructing Mu Yiya to kill his uncle. Once this matter is revealed, it is really like what Mu Pengli said, Mu Pengli is afraid that he will be kicked out of the Mu family. And whether he can still maintain such a life, Mu Pengli is his right-hand man. Is someone trying to deal with him? A trace of bad emotions suddenly surged into Mu Yingshu's heart.
"Fourth brother, don't worry, you try to contact Ya'er and ask her to hurry back to Mu's house. As for the matter of the fifth brother, I will leave it alone for the time being. Everything will be discussed after Ya'er returns. β
"Second brother, I'm afraid that those people have more than just these methods. I'm afraid my daughter has fallen into a trap too. Wouldn't she let her come back, wouldn't she suffer death?" Mu Pengli was naturally thinking about his daughter's safety at this juncture. Let this daughter who killed her uncle come back, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape the punishment of the family law.
"The fifth brother may not die, he is just a bait to lure your family Ya'er into falling for it. If Mu Liangwu really died, that person would not have to die of heartache. I think it's time for them to do the same. β
After some reminders from the head of the family, Mu Pengli finally calmed down. "Could it be him?"
Mu Yingshu nodded and replied, "Otherwise, who else in the Mu family is so familiar with the Chai Sang thief?"
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
In another place, on a secluded mountain road in Donglin, a horse-drawn carriage finally drove out of the dense forest and came to a slightly more spacious road. Liang Xiong, who had not done anything for many years, was a little sick at the moment, his face was pale, and he covered his knees with a blanket that was not thick, but in early spring, Mu Wuye, even if he was not a martial arts practitioner, he could see that Liang Xiong was a little weak. Liang Xiong was still holding the wine bag in his hand, and the wine in the wine bag was clanging on the bumpy car, which he thought was very beautiful, and this kind of stiffness was very beautiful for a drunkard.
Mu Wuye sat on the other side of the carriage, his face very dissatisfied. He said with disdain on his face: "I can't imagine that the Chai Song thief is so useless, and he can't exchange a hundred taels of gold for a weak woman's head. β
Liang Xiong raised his eyebrows and said with a wry smile: "Thieves have always been untrustworthy, the fifth master doesn't have to worry about it, as long as we can leave safely." β
Mu Wuye pursed his lips, still complaining: "If it weren't for that young swordsman this time, this matter wouldn't be so tricky." I shouldn't have agreed to include that kid in the escort group in the first place, because I saw that kid was not enough to succeed and more than to lose. β
Liang Xiong unscrewed the wine bag, tasted it shallowly, and sighed softly: "Artistic conception level, such a young artistic conception level master, I'm just curious about what his mentorship is." If it was a disciple of the group of weirdos in the Zhongzhou Sword Curtain, it would not be surprising. In that case, I don't think it will be easy for Mu Wuye to pursue it. The group of weirdos in the sword curtain have always only done things according to their own hearts, and those who don't pay attention to reason are all crazy. β
Mu Wuye lowered his head and pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and sneered: "If it is really the Zhongzhou Sword Curtain, our Mu family can only consider ourselves unlucky." In the final analysis, this matter still has to blame the leader of the Chai Song thief, wouldn't it be better to shoot Mu Yiya with a crossbow arrow earlier, no matter how capable the swordsman is, he can still save people from the crossbow arrow. In the end, he dared to threaten the old man, and he also fought with the boss of my Mu family, and our Mu family will never give up on this matter in the future. β
Liang Xiong smiled lightly, lifted the curtain, and looked at the green forest not far away, the green forest was lush and full of vitality, and the flowers in the forest set off each other, which was particularly beautiful. If it was in the past, he would praise the beautiful scenery from the bottom of his heart. At this moment, he naturally can't calm down and appreciate these things, because the person last night obviously knew his identity, so the man behind him was destined not to let go of himself, the man who occupied the mountain as the king and called the wind and rain in Donglin, where he was bored, he only drank to relieve his worries. He tried to continue drinking, but his lungs protested, causing him to cough.
He stroked his chest with his hand, and comforted him with a frank smile: "But the deal of 100 gold is compared to the Mu family's hundred-year plan, so why care." Mu Wuye shouldn't be so angry. You have to think about what comes next. "Liang Xiong is also a smart character, Mu Liangwu dares to do something to Mu Pengli's baby daughter, how can there be no follow-up?
"100 gold, 100 gold is not money, it's 100 taels of gold, the old man almost got into half a life, this loss is simply a big loss. The Chai Song thief is a waste. The old Qingjiang King is even more hateful, and the four righteous sons, the bear, eagle, and wolf dogs, have not even been dispatched. It's really an embroidered pillow with a strong outside and a dry middle. β
Liang Xiong smiled, naturally he would not take these words seriously, if the Chai Song thieves were all embroidered pillows, they should have died under the big hands of the major families a long time ago. It's a pity that it turns out that the Chai Song thief not only survived, but also succeeded in establishing his own order, having his own palace, and living a very nourishing life. The king of Qingjiang has become the symbol of the firewood pine thief, calling for wind and rain in Donglin, and making a promise. In other words, as long as the old Qingjiang King does not die for a day, Donglin has to face up to this force, no matter how evil it is, no matter how evil it is, no matter how evil it is, because this deformed existence has long become a thorn, and to this day, it is still like a thorn, stuck in the throat of these big families in Donglin, and it is difficult to get in and out.
In fact, over the years, the Chai Song thief has been relatively peaceful, and he has not killed people and sold goods at every turn, which has a lot to do with the good discipline of the King of Qingjiang. But the more this is the case, the more it seems that the firewood pine thief can be photographed. Because this thorn doesn't sting the throat anymore, then no one knows, if this thorn is now sharper, or better than the blade, then the next attack will cut the entire throat?
When thieves don't want to kill people and buy goods, but start reasoning with people and doing business, everything seems so abnormal.
Maybe that thorn is not in the throat or skin, but in the intestines, or it may be deep into the bone marrow, it is always lurking, and it is always dangerous.
What do you want to do, old man? Could it be that one day you really take off that turf, ascend the throne, and become a real prince?
Liang Xiong's heart was worried, remembering the last time he fought with the thief leader, and sighed helplessly: "That young village master, the strength should be no worse than when he was young, and even surpassed." This Qingjiang Wang's subordinates are constantly emerging. How can such a chaisang thief not be frightened?"
When Mu Liangwu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh heavily and said, "It stands to reason that my Mu family shouldn't be like this." Neither should I. When the old family master was in power, which of our brothers was not in his prime, heroic, and elite among the people. At that time, we got along well and harmoniously. As a result, the second child inherited the position of the head of the family, and everything changed. The third sister was so angry that she moved out of the Mu family, the eldest brother was inexplicably excluded, and the sixth brother grew up a lot overnight, the original ignorant and carefree The sixth young master of the Mu family, thinking about things is simple and naΓ―ve, our brothers never broke it, and they all love him very much. The head of the family once said before his death that the kid had a clear mind, as clean as a pool of clear springs, and he could see the end at a glance. This kind of person can only have good intentions towards others. But now, except for himself, no one knows how deep this spring is, but fortunately, he has contributed a lot of strength to the family over the years. Sometimes I wonder if it will be better if the eldest brother succeeds to the throne, the eldest brother's ambition is enough, he is really lacking in ability, the talent of the fourth brother is destined to be used by the family, and the eldest brother and the second brother inherit the head of the family, and he will be loyal to the death. This is also a ZTE solution. However, a few days ago, when I saw the strategy of the fourth and second children, they wanted to kill me, an idle person, so I had to choose a team again. Our Mu family is indeed a little too dirty, our brothers, from the heart, there is still a difference between the concubines, if you don't die one or two, you can't sweep away the half-dead twilight of the Mu family. That's right, what can't be swept away with blood, I want to clean the Mu family, I don't want to use my own blood, so I have to use their blood. β
Liang Xiong was stunned when he heard this, his eyes were full of incomprehension, as if he was saying that the Mu family was far from reaching the point of recovering from poverty, so why should brothers kill each other.
Mu Liangwu laughed and continued to explain: "Actually, in any scholar family, the money and silk are far less than the family's heirs. No matter how glamorous the appearance of this family is, and the atmosphere is graceful and luxurious, it will not work. It's like an old tree has no heart, the inside is hollow, and sooner or later it will rot and perish. At that time, I am afraid that we will have to pray that the day when the tree falls will be late, and that our family will not fall too hard, let alone fall directly into the dust, so that it will completely fall and cannot get up again. Fortunately, this time my eldest brother and I made a move, and our Mu family's day had a chance to change. When I think of the amazing immortal cultivator hanging in mid-air, the appearance of not eating the fireworks of the world, the moment when the mortal dust falls from the sky, it is really exciting. β
Liang Xiong realized at this time that the mean old man in front of him was not simple, so it seems that most of the previous things were deliberately done by this old man. The purpose is to make others look down on him.
Good one-handed clumsy ability.
He thought of the person who was gentle and frugal in the Mu family and could be called a good friend, and raised his head and asked, "Does the sixth master know about this?
Mu Liangwu's eyes were cold, and he said calmly: "It doesn't matter if the sixth brother knows or not, and it doesn't even matter how he stands in line." When you have enough chips, you don't have to worry about your enemies not playing against you. Obviously, our chips are enough, when the second child has to shed his shell of cultivating immortals and fight naked, the kung fu that has been wasted for decades and the extravagance that has been cultivated in the past few decades will probably surprise all of us. That's an immortal raised by most of the Mu family. Haha, the immortals ......"
At the end, Mu Liangwu couldn't help laughing, almost sickly, but laughed out of tears. The laughter echoed through the carriage, resounding through the forest paths, and startling away many birds and beasts.
Liang Xiong saw it in his eyes, and his heart fluctuated slightly.
Brothers are like siblings, killing each other, and there has always been no shortage of such plots in the stories of powerful people throughout the ages.
The Mu family has surged again, so where is his chance?
