Looking at the old man in front of him, it seemed that he didn't intend to talk too much with the two of them, Mu Qing and Tsing Yi glanced at each other, and the light in their eyes gradually dimmed.

After a long time, the two of them traveled a long distance this time just to be able to see the old lady, but who would have thought that they would become like this in the end.

Mu Qing couldn't help but have a question in his heart, is it because the old lady is not as rumored, or is it just because he is inconvenient to meet guests today?

Running all the way over, Mu Qing naturally would not be willing to eat such a closed door.

Although there was some helplessness in his heart, Mu Qing still said to the old man with a smile on his face.

"This old-timer, we came here this time, I heard that the old lady Fu Aicai, and this friend of mine wanted to take the imperial examination, but he encountered a lot of trouble before taking the imperial examination, so this is ......"

Before Mu Qing could finish speaking, the old man in front of him shook his head gently, and then sighed.

"Lang Lang Qiankun, there are those who love talents, but the breadth of talents is beyond the reach of one person, I am in the twilight of my life, and I am only powerless in the face of this matter, so I am ashamed to let the two of them return in defeat!"

After the old man in front of him heard the purpose of their visit this time, the expression on his face finally began to gradually become a little softened.

Although I don't know why the old man was very arrogant and even indifferent at the beginning, it seems that he does have a heart of love and talent.

It's just that as he himself said, now that he is old, he doesn't have much energy to meddle in this matter, so it's understandable that he is powerless.

After simply saying a few words to the old lady, Mu Qing could only say goodbye to the other party in the end.

And throughout the conversation, Tsing Yi remained silent from beginning to end, neither spoke, nor did he show any desire to take the initiative to fight for himself at this time.

On the contrary, Mu Qing is doing his best to mediate between them, although the final result is not satisfactory, but Mu Qing's efforts are also seen by everyone present.

In the carriage at this time, Xin'er saw that Mu Qing and Tsing Yi didn't even enter the other courtyard, and there was a faint helplessness in their eyes.

"It seems that Miss's plan has failed again this time...... I really don't know why he had to help that man, and it seems to me that the man doesn't necessarily take this matter as seriously as he does. ”

It seems to be talking to himself, and it seems to be talking to the groom sitting in front of him, but the groom himself is an honest person, so he naturally doesn't dare to speak casually.

"Tsing Yi, don't be discouraged, although this time we came to visit the old lady on the whole, it is a failure, but this road does not work, it does not mean that all roads are not passable, I hope you can correct your attitude, correct your mentality, don't give up because of this matter."

At this time, Tsing Yi was preoccupied, and when he heard Mu Qing's comfort, he just smiled indifferently.

"It's okay, I'm lucky, I lose my life, in fact, many times a person's fate may have been predestined by the sky, maybe I am destined to miss this imperial examination!"

Tsing Yi's right hand waved slightly, and as he spoke, he took the lead in getting into the carriage.

After the men got back into the carriage, the carriage headed for the way back.

Sitting in the carriage, Mu Qing thought in his mind about what other way he should use to help Tsing Yi.

Tsing Yi was in a complicated mood, and the scene when he received this task once again appeared in his mind at this time.

In the dim room, Mu Wan sat at the table in the center of the room, picked up the teacup in front of her, and drank slowly.

Tsing Yi came in from the outside, came to Mu Wan, and after a simple hello to the other party, he stood next to him and waited.

"I heard that this time, in order to help you solve the imperial examination, Mu Qing plans to go to the suburban courtyard alone with you to find that old lady?"

Her eyes drooped slightly, and Mu Wan asked softly.

Tsing Yi swallowed his saliva and nodded slightly.

"That's right, the task I assigned to you this time is very simple, this time you and Mu Qing go out alone, and it is also a great opportunity for you to kill her, I don't care what method you use, you must make Mu Qing disappear completely, can you understand?"

As soon as she finished saying this, Mu Wan's extremely sharp eyes shot directly on Tsing Yi's face.

The expression on Tsing Yi's face was very complicated, and it was obvious that he was more or less entangled in his heart.

Anyway, Mu Qing really regarded herself as a friend in her heart, but the task he received was to kill her, which is really a bit ironic.

Coming back to his senses from his trance, Tsing Yi turned his head to look at Mu Qing sitting beside him.

At this time, Mu Qing's brows were furrowed, obviously he was still secretly anxious about Tsing Yi's affairs.

is like such a person who treats himself so wholeheartedly, but in the end he died for himself, which is also unacceptable to Tsing Yi.

But no matter what, as a killer, he must carry out the task when he receives it.

Suffering the condemnation of conscience in his heart, in the end, Tsing Yi still did not resist the pressure, and had already done something on the wheels of the carriage before setting off.

Since the time was not particularly anxious when it came, the carriage did not make so many sharp turns when it was moving.

At this time, in order to make the carriage have an accident in the process of driving, Tsing Yi showed a sudden realization, turned his head and looked at Mu Qing and said.

"Niangniang, I just remembered something, I still have to rush to Xicheng in half an hour, because I made an appointment with an old man to meet by the lake in Xicheng, but now this hour is ......"

After Tsing Yi said this, he pretended to shake his head, looking very annoyed.

Mu Qing himself didn't help Tsing Yi, and he felt more or less sorry for Tsing Yi in his heart.

I didn't expect that at this time, I saw that Tsing Yi would delay the agreement with the old man because of this visit to the suburban courtyard, and he attached great importance to this matter.

"It's okay, our carriage can actually be faster."

Mu Qing smiled indifferently at Tsing Yi and directly ordered the coachman to speed up.

With Mu Qing's instructions, the coachman did not dare to slack off, and directly increased the forward speed of the entire carriage several times on the basis of the original speed.

The carriage kept jolting on the mountain road, and at the same time began to move in the direction of Xicheng.

From where the carriage is now, if you want to get to Xicheng in the shortest possible time, then it is the wisest way to take a detour from outside the city.

It's just that the terrain itself is treacherous, and there are several very obvious dangerous sections, with mountains on one side and cliffs on the other.

Originally, the coachman planned to slow down, but Mu Qing urged vigorously, and finally the coachman pointed out that he could boldly tell the carriage to move forward at the previous speed.

Finally, in a sharp turn, the wheel suddenly fell off, and the carriage tilted at this point.

Mu Qing didn't have time to react at all, and his whole body was about to fall into the abyss with the youth association of the carriage.

But at this moment, Tsing Yi finally couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pulled Mu Qing back again, and at the same time, with the reaction of his strength, Tsing Yi fell towards the cliff.

It was too late, and as the carriage tilted, Mu Qing finally reflected from his shocked state.

As a result, he saw Tsing Yi disregarding his own life in order to save himself, which made Mu Qing's heart more or less moved.

Stretched out his hand and grabbed Tsing Yi's right hand desperately.

"Tsing Yi, you hold on to me, but don't let go!"

Gritting his teeth tightly, Mu Qing began to shout loudly to the coachman and Xin'er for help while speaking.

Since the driver and Xin'er were sitting in front of the carriage during the process of driving, the two of them were not affected in the slightest when the carriage tilted.

At this time, I heard Mu Qing's cry for help, and Xin'er and the coachman were also in a mess, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

"What are you doing? You hurry back to the city, tell the third prince what happened here, and ask the third prince to send someone to save the young lady quickly! ”

Xin'er finally reacted after being shocked, and hurriedly said to the coachman.

At this time, the whole road was completely blocked by the robbed carriage, and even if the coachman wanted to rescue, he lacked special tools.

After thinking about it for a while, he could only nod his head lightly, and without looking back, he ran in another direction at a very fast speed.

After all, compared with the two people, the coachman and Xin'er still have better physical strength, so they can also save time to the greatest extent.

At this time, Tsing Yi's entire body was suspended in the air, and the mountain wind was blowing, making Tsing Yi's hair messy at this time.

He looked at Mu Qing, who was holding his hand tightly and was unwilling to let go at all, and sighed helplessly.

Thinking of his own task, Tsing Yi finally made a decision helplessly.

With the help of the rebounding force, he directly pulled Mu Qing and fell down the abyss below.

After a short time, the group of people and horses came to the location of the carriage, and Bai Lichen did not wait for the carriage to stop, so he jumped out of the carriage in a hurry and rushed this way.

"Where's the princess?"

Standing next to Xin'er and the coachman, who didn't dare to speak, looked at each other, and finally Xin'er was the first to speak.

"The third prince, Miss and Tsing Yi fell down together......"
