Chapter 214: Suppressing Bandits in the Southwest
Mu Yihan looked at Ye Yun'er for a while, and couldn't see the slightest guilt in her clear amber eyes, and sighed helplessly, "I went hunting, but I didn't return." ”
Ye Yun'er couldn't help but sneer, "I thought that your martial arts were world-renowned, and you were the best among hunters." When you were in Qingfeng County before, you still captured wild things, why did you regress now? ”
Mu Yihan wanted to say that it was all because of her, not only did his skills regress, but even his mind had decreased by half.
But he pursed his lips twice, and only asked intentionally or unintentionally, "Listen to Ling Feng, what kind of obsidian business are you going to do?" How's the discussion going? ”
At the mention of this stubble, Ye Yun'er immediately restrained her smile and raised her eyebrows.
"Don't mention it, that obsidian is real, and if you do it, you will definitely make a lot of money. It's just that those two unreliable ones fooled me to the inn where they lived, and then disappeared out of thin air, and they are still nowhere to be seen. ”
The more she spoke, the more angry she became, and she pointed to her head and said, "I couldn't figure out what their purpose was in doing this, until Lao Luo reminded me that the hairpin on my head was gone, and I only said, dare they go to such great lengths to take advantage of the opportunity to steal my property?" Fortunately, I didn't take out the more expensive jewelry, otherwise I would have lost a fortune! ”
"I really can't imagine that they are noble envoys, but they will do such inferior and inferior deeds, and they are not afraid of tarnishing the reputation of the king of the southwest, and they will be laughed at by the people of my Apocalypse Dynasty!" Ye Yun'er added indignantly, her face full of disdain.
Mu Yihan glanced at Luo Yuxuan, but Luo Yuxuan just lowered his head to calculate the accounts, completely ignoring the movements here, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Mu Yihan didn't break it, but just let Ye Yun'er wantonly vent the resentment in her heart.
He wanted to do this, so as not to make Ye Yun'er feel guilty when she learned that he had been running around for her all day in vain.
The hairpin that was going to be returned to her was also tightly held in the palm of his hand, hidden behind him and not taken out.
When Ye Yun'er had vented enough, Mu Yihan smiled and said, "It's just a hairpin, it doesn't matter if you lose it, I'll take you to buy a few more tomorrow." ”
Seeing Mu Yihan say this, Ye Yun'er's arrogance in her heart finally decreased, and she said in a sneering voice: "I'm not just angry that I lost something, but the most annoying thing is that I was deceived and teased, which is very uncomfortable." ”
Mu Yihan, why is this not the case?
"Just as they are clowns jumping off the beam, jumping around in this capital for a day, we laugh it off." Although Mu Yihan was so relieved, he thought in his heart that he could laugh it off, but would the emperor let this matter go so easily?
I'm afraid that it won't be long before there will be a bloody storm, and this moment will only be a brief calm before the storm.
Seeing Mu Yihan's slightly sad appearance, although Ye Yun'er didn't know what he was for, she didn't dare to disturb his purity with her own little things.
She breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, this matter will be over." Maybe those two have fled, and we'll never see them again. ”
The two chatted a few more words, and Mu Yihan shirked his tiredness and went back first without staying for dinner.
It's just that before he could approach the palace, the emperor's edict intercepted him in the middle of the road, and only summoned him to enter the palace quickly, and the emperor had something to discuss with him.
Mu Yihan rubbed his forehead, which was slightly painful. Although this ending had long been expected by him, he did not expect it to come so quickly.
Mu Yihan didn't have time to change his clothes, so he entered the palace and met the emperor in the imperial study.
The emperor walked around with his hands behind his back in front of him, and the swimming dragon on the bright yellow seemed to be infected with his anger, and became extremely hideous, with the posture of wanting to rush up and bite Mu Yihan.
Mu Yihan just stood quietly with his head down, waiting for the moment when the heavens and the earth collapsed in this extremely dull atmosphere.
Finally, the emperor stood in front of him, and a trace of fierceness burst out of his eyes staring at him.
Mu Yihan didn't feel the slightest warmth between father and son, and even sensed a hostility, as if the emperor and the king of the southwest were incompatible.
There was a familiar throbbing pain in his heart, but he was forced to contain it.
He had sworn that he would no longer feel heartache for the unsympathetic man in front of him, because he was unworthy.
The emperor looked down at Mu Yihan condescendingly, hoping to use his stern gaze to make the other party afraid and cold.
But what disappointed him was that Mu Yihan still had an unchanging face, a calm and calm appearance, like a rock that had been tempered for thousands of years, unchanged for eternity.
"I heard that today you had a meeting with the messenger of the king of the southwest, outside the city?" The emperor's cold words were like ice, and the indignation and threat in them were terrifying.
Mu Yihan knew that he had this question, so he said unhurriedly, "Father, the son went out of the city for other things, but he happened to meet the southwest envoy. After that, the southwestern envoy followed all the way, presumably because he wanted the people you sent to keep an eye on them to see, so as to deliberately make you suspicious and alienate our father-son relationship. I also hope that my father will see clearly, and don't fall into their trap and their tricks. ”
"Oh, is that really the case?" The emperor still stared at him suspiciously, trying to catch even the slightest panic on his face, but in the end he found nothing.
"Not only did he follow you, but he also handed you a thing, yes or no?" The emperor continued to ask aggressively.
Mu Yihan smiled bitterly, "Since my father suspects his son so deeply, if my son says that he gave his son a woman's hairpin, my father won't believe it." ”
The emperor naturally didn't believe it.
It's just that what evidence can he come up with to convict Mu Yihan of his guilt?
He remained silent, but continued to wander back and forth, as if he was thinking about something, and as if he couldn't make up his mind about something.
Finally, he once again stood in front of Mu Yihan and said to him in a cold voice: "This morning, the ministers were asking me who I want to send to the southwest to suppress bandits. After all, you have worked on disaster relief in the past two years, and you have already developed some leadership skills. You have read the war book for a few years and have your own troops, and it is said that your thousands of soldiers are also very brave and good at fighting, so take your thousands of soldiers with you. ”
The emperor's personal soldiers were a group of soldiers recruited and trained by Mu Yihan on the fief given to him outside the city, with the emperor's permission.
After this group of soldiers was trained by him, they were indeed brave and good at fighting, but what he didn't expect was that the emperor was also very clear about this matter.
After all, those soldiers had never really fought on the battlefield, so it can only be speculated that the emperor had been secretly paying attention to his movements and was familiar with everything about him.
