Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Thug Appears

Is he the only one who doesn't understand?

No, no, absolutely not.

He tried to comfort himself, recalling the expression on the face of Han Tongling getting up and leaving just now, it was also a blank expression, so it was definitely not that he was stupid, but because these people were too smart!

Thinking like this, Mu Xian couldn't help but ask the reason here, and he didn't dare to ask until they checked into the inn.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law," although he asked, he still whispered, and secretly pulled Luo Xiaoran to hide in the corner of the wall to ask, for fear of being heard by Murong Jie, "Do you know why Brother Fang Cai asked Commander Han to follow those people?" ”

Luo Xiaoran touched his head with his hand, and his heart became extremely soft because of his sneaky and cute behavior, "You can ask me in front of your brother about this, he won't reprimand you for this." ”

Mu Xian seemed to believe it: "Really? Is it because Commander Han doesn't know either? ”

As they spoke, the two walked towards the table.

Murong Jue was still reading the travelogue she had written when she came, and after hearing their voices, his eyes rose from the scroll, his eyes were cold, and there seemed to be a light like broken ice floating in his eyes. If Luo Xiaoran hadn't known that he was so dignified because of what had just happened, he would have thought that she had written something in her travelogue that shouldn't have made him angry.

"Mondy, you come." Murong Jue's gaze just swept lightly from Luo Xiaoran's face, and then put his gaze back on the scroll in his hand.

Just this glance made Luo Xiaoran a little flustered for no reason.

Wasn't that ice-edged gaze just now because of the group of people, but because of her?

She didn't show anything wrong...... Bar...... Except for subconsciously expressing her thinking as a future person when defending Mu Xian, at other times she thought she had disguised herself well.

These chaotic thoughts were interrupted by Meng Di's calm voice, "The few people who came to the restaurant for dinner today looked sallow, their eyes were weak, and they were thin, but they were in high spirits and short-tempered, not like ordinary people, they were really suspicious, I am afraid that they have taken some drugs." His subordinates are stationed in the border states all the year round, and Hu County often comes to collect medicines from poisonous doctors, and he has also learned a little bit of fur under the influence of his ears and eyes, and he never thought that he could use it at this time. ”

"Then why are you following them?" Mu Xian asked.

Mondy dutifully continued to explain: "This kind of medicine will not be circulated in the market anymore, it will only be circulated through some private channels, and the price is very expensive, and the army will also purchase some to relieve the pain of seriously injured soldiers, and only after taking it in large quantities and for a long time, will it affect people's mental and physical effects." Xiangzhou is so barren, and those people are dressed very ordinary, where did they get these medicines? ”

Meng Di said it in detail, even Mu Xian understood it, but he still couldn't understand the stakes behind it.

They didn't leave much time for Mu Xian to digest, and at nightfall, Han Yan came back in a hurry, and brought a lot of shocking news.

He didn't even bother to take a sip of water, he looked at Luo Xiaoran in a hurry, and in a hurry he forgot to hide his name, "Niangniang, do you remember what the porter we hired told us when we were in Lingjue Temple?" is what he said that the person who killed Lord Xiao Tong was not a robber, but a thug hired by the government. ”

Luo Xiaoran recalled, "I still remember, didn't you go to inquire later." Luo Xiaoran said, his face changed, "Could it be that the people we saw today are the thugs that the porter said?" ”

If Luo Xiaoran's tone was just doubtful, after receiving Han Yan's unusually solemn nod of affirmation, her complexion immediately changed several times.

I only heard Han Yan say: "My subordinates followed them all the way back to the accommodation, and I heard what they said with my own ears." I'm afraid that Lord Xiao Tong's death is not only Lu Kui's cause...... But they were only the thugs at the lowest level who carried out the order, and they didn't know who ordered them to do it. In order to pretend to be robbers, they killed many ordinary soldiers, and after that mission, they were forced to take a drug, and every month someone came to give them medicine, and they were not allowed to continue to be thugs. And their boss...... It was the man who had been captured and fled, who, according to them, had been hidden in a place by the people above, and had not disappeared. ”

Luo Xiaoran's face was already shocked that could not be concealed.

General Xiao Meng, who was accustomed to seeing the swords and blood on the battlefield, also had a solemn face.

The first to react was Murong Jue, a coldness flashed between his eyebrows, "Han Yan, you continue to keep an eye on the movements of those people." Mundy, go get pen and ink. ”

After receiving the order, the two dispersed.

Murong Jue didn't let Luo Xiaoran come to study the ink, he only roughly dipped it in ink and picked up the pen, and when the handwriting on the letter paper was dry, he handed the letter to Meng Di, "You go and run in person, give this letter to Meng Wei, and he will know how to act." ”

Meng Di looked solemn, took the letter with both hands, and clenched his fists to receive the order: "Yes." ”

Seeing Meng Di withdraw from the room, Mu Xiancai boldly asked, "Brother, Commander Han and General Meng are not by your side, do you need to transfer Yin Xiu to Xiangzhou?" ”

According to the information they received, Yin Xiu's imperial battle had entered the Youzhou realm early.

"Not necessarily." Murong Jue was rarely calm with Mu Xian.

Luo Xiaoran can more or less guess the worries of the people next to the pillow, only Yin Xiu is the only confidant on the other side of the royal battle, if he is also transferred, if something goes wrong with the royal battle, it will be more than worth the loss.

"Brother Huang...... Why did you let General Meng go back to Beijing? It was probably Murong Du's peace that gave Murong Jue great courage, and he actually took the initiative to ask Murong Du.

Luo Xiaoran, who had just sat down on the round bench, looked at Mu Xian in surprise.

But after the surprised eyes, there was a look of relief and encouragement.

This kid is finally a little bit distracted, and he knows that he has to ask if he doesn't understand.

Luo Xiaoran looked at her cub with a relieved look like an old mother looking at her cub and not being sensible, but she made the cub quite embarrassed, and two unnatural crimson balls appeared on her face.

"Luo Xiaoran, come on."

Luo Xiaoran, who was indulged in emotion, was coldly named, and subconsciously sighed, turning his head to look at the handsome man sitting upright, with a face full of non-composure.

In front of Murong Jue, she was either coquettish, gentle, or coquettish and lively, but she rarely had such a silly reaction. Such a fresh expression made Murong unconsciously soften his gaze, and his tone became much gentler, "Tell me why I let Meng Di go back." ”

"Uh......" Luo Xiaoran scratched his sideburns, his thoughts rolled in his stomach several times, and he sorted out his thoughts early in the morning, but he didn't speak.

She hadn't forgotten Murong Jue's seemingly inquiring gaze-

In Murong Jue's eyes, she is the only daughter of the Su family, and she is the world-famous 'Tianchi Yaoji', but the soul hidden under Su Qingce's beautiful skin is from the modern age thousands of years later, and she is a woman with modern consciousness. Although she loved Murong Jue, and Murong Jue loved her, she still didn't have the courage to tell Murong Jue her identity.
