Chapter 179: Picking Chestnuts from Chaos
Mu Xiaoxin turned her head, glanced at Zhou Fei and Zhang Huan standing outside the door, and said lightly: "It can be seen that these two people are good, and their strength may not be lost to Fu Bo." ”
Su Yi saw that her tone was a little lonely, and sighed: "Although the old man was not killed by my subordinates, but he died because of me. ”
Mu Xiaoxin waved her hand and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you." ”
Cheng Wenyuan lowered his head and drank silently, his ears eager to stand up like a pair of rabbit ears.
Qinglou? Cheng Wenyuan peeked at Su Yi, and secretly said Could this kid be the kind of disciple who lingers in the fireworks and wine alley?
Su Yi suddenly asked, "Have you found Mo Decai's whereabouts?" ”
Mu Xiaoxin said in a deep voice: "Not yet, it's just that the Cardinal Sect has been making frequent moves recently, and I believe that this Mo Decai must still be dormant in Youzhou." ”
"Oh?" Su Yiqi said: "Why are you so sure? Maybe he stayed in Liaodong. ”
Mu Xiaoxin shook her head and glanced at Cheng Wenyuan, who looked obscene on the side.
Cheng Wenyuan saw that her eyes suddenly sharpened, and there was a trace of murderous intent hidden in them, and he didn't like it in his heart, but he still had a simple and cute look on his face.
Su Yi said embarrassedly: "This is my friend, you can trust it." ”
Mu Xiaoxin snorted, and said: "There are quite a few famous scribes in Bowang County, and there are two major families in Liaodong entrenched in the city, so Mo De has done such a big thing, if he still stays in Liaodong, I am afraid that there will be no scum left that has been swallowed by the lackeys of those family gates." He is a smart man, and what he wants is still in Liaodong, and now the situation in Liaodong and Youzhou is a little delicate, and it is the best way to lie dormant in Youzhou. ”
"This person's heart is like a poisonous snake, if it weren't for the interests of my Mu family, I wouldn't cooperate with him." Mu Xiaoxin sighed and said, "I also conspired with the tiger before, but Fu Bo died in their hands, and I definitely have to settle this account with him." ”
Su Yi was very curious about what Mu Xiaoxin wanted in her mouth, but he couldn't help but ask.
"Young Master Su." Mu Xiaoxin's eyes were clear when she looked at Su Yi at this time, Su Yi's heart moved, and she asked, "En?" ”
Mu Xiaoxin said: "The situation in Youzhou and Liaodong is far more complicated than what you see, how many forces are dormant in these two places, it can be described as surging, if you are not careful, you will end up with no bones, you should be more careful." ”
Although Cheng Wenyuan is also a local hero, in Mu Xiaoxin's eyes, he is just a stick landlord, Youzhou and Liaodong are not only dormant with many forces in the DPRK and China, but also Jinyiwei who wants to regain the holy favor, spies hidden here by warlords from all over the country, and even the eyeliner of the Hu people, similar to Ruan Ke, the spies of the eight major chambers of commerce, the bandits in the north are endless, and there are many bandits and rogues in the vertical and horizontal mountains, among which she feels the most frightened is the cardinal sect that has been dormant among the people.
This red-clothed sect is also known as the Five Doumi Sect, there are countless sects, these people are good at winning people's hearts, and they have eyeliner and believers in various government offices, including the three religions and nine streams, and even the Cheng family is strong in a place, and there may not be no eyeliner under the door.
Although the family lords in Youzhou and Liaodong are powerful, and although the local heroes are black, they don't know that the Cardinal Sect has imperceptibly infiltrated the top and bottom of Dachu, if they are willing, these Youzhou and Liaodong are afraid that they will soon fall into chaos.
Su Yi smiled slightly: "This doesn't bother Miss Mu." ”
Mu Xiaoxin stared at Su Yi, and suddenly sighed, "Uncle Huang used you this time, although there is also some meaning to examine whether you are worth wooing, but more often he still treats you as a shit-stirring stick, inserted into the place of Youzhou, disgusting that Liu Yu Lao'er." ”
Su Yi heard Mu Xiaoxin say that he was a-stirring stick, frowned, and was about to have a seizure, but he heard Mu Xiaoxin continue: "Although you are a child of a family, but the Yingchuan Su family has existed in name only, and the Su family has a partial branch in Jiangnan, but it may not treat you as his own person, and it will not help you too much, Uncle Huang wants to promote you to an official, there is only one reason, that is, you helped my cousin in Jingmen County successfully find evidence of the Wanjia Branch's collusion with Hu Ren, and assisted my cousin in capturing the thief of the Wanjia Branch." ”
"It's just that in this way, you have offended the Wanjia Chamber of Commerce, not only that, but you have also offended the Mi family behind the Wanjia, and you will also be targeted by the Cardinal Sect. The old man of the Wan family later couldn't bear the criminal law, and confessed that he had a group of followers of the Cardinal Sect under him, if the Cardinal Sect knew that the Wanjia Branch was seized by the government because of your relationship, what do you say they would do? Maudecai, who has been dormant in Youzhou, will also wait for an opportunity. ”
Mu Xiaoxin smiled bitterly: "Actually, I don't approve of you staying in Youzhou as an official, although you also have some capable people under you, and there are also many brave guards, but once you are targeted by the Cardinal Sect, no matter how powerful these people are, they can't help each other." ”
Su Yi and Cheng Wenyuan looked at each other when they heard this.
Mu Xiaoxin suddenly felt a little unhappy, so she stood up and prepared to leave, she glanced at Su Yi, and suddenly thought of the days when they fled together, her heart was hot, and she blurted out: "If you really want to stay in Youzhou, you must be careful of Liu Yu, if the Cardinal Sect is making trouble under the pretext of rehabilitating the Wanjia Branch, it is difficult to guarantee that Liu Yu will not take the opportunity to attack you." ”
Su Yi's heart moved, Mu Xiaoxin and Cheng Wenyuan didn't know his hole cards, in fact, he was not interested in Da Chu's official position, what he wanted was nothing more than a reasonable excuse to build a fort outside the Zongheng Mountain Range.
As long as he can build a military fort, then take down the southern barren forest, open the road to the Yongji Canal, and have the resources to produce food and cloth, Su Yi will have the capital to compete for the world.
If the world is in turmoil, the most important thing is nothing more than food and armor, without armor to master iron ore resources can also be forged, but without food, even if the bandits under their hands are not afraid of death, it is difficult to succeed.
Su Yi sincerely thanked him: "Thank you Miss Mu for your advice." ”
Mu Xiaoxin stared at Su Yi for a while, and said with a smile: "Xie doesn't need to, I hope that the next time we meet, you will still be alive." ”
After Mu Xiaoxin left, Cheng Wenyuan filled Su Yi with a glass of wine and asked with a smile, "Are you afraid?" I have the impression that Brother Su dares to pretend to be an officer and soldier, a guy who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and the words of the surname Mu scared you like this? ”
Su Yi stood up, walked to the front of the hall, looked at the rockery stream in the Red Jade Villa, was a little stunned, and suddenly said, "Afraid? What am I afraid of, no matter how complicated the situation in this Youzhou is, no matter how bad the environment is, can it still be bad to cross the vertical and horizontal mountains? When it comes to human nature, it takes more to spend a day inside the mountains than to spend a year outside. ”
