Chapter 20: Assassination

Early the next morning, Lu Min knocked on Mu Yuyan's door, "General, it has been arranged", and then handed the man a small note and went out.

The note was written in block letters with the words "Biqing Lake".

After reading it, the man threw the note into the brazier and instantly turned to ashes.

In the gap between eating, I always felt that something was missing, and after a while, I realized that there was one person missing, "Where did Ning Luoge go?" ”

Lu Min smiled, "I thought the general had forgotten about Dr. Ning."

“...........”

"Dr. Ning said that there was nothing to do in the house, and he was idle and bored, so he went to the pharmacy to be a sitting doctor, don't you say, the people who are looking for Dr. Ning to see a doctor are almost out of the city" Lu Min said stammered.

"That's fine"

"Doesn't the general think that this Doctor Ning is not here, something is missing?"

"What's missing?"

Lu Min shook his head helplessly, "Naturally, it's less fun, I haven't been so quiet when Dr. Ning was here in the past, general, if you look at it now, even if you drop a needle on the ground, you can hear it clearly."

Mu Yuyan admired Lu Min's big eyes.

Lu Min immediately closed his mouth in recognition.

The two of them ate a few bites of food casually, then left the house through the back door and rode two fast horses to Biqing Lake.

This Biqing Lake is a house in the west of the city, because there is a lake in front of the yard, and the lake water is very clear all year round, so it is named Biqing Lake.

Biqing Lake is two hours away from Mufu.

It was nearly noon by the time we arrived.

There was a servant waiting in front of the house, and when he saw the two of them, he immediately stepped forward and led the horse, "General, the son is waiting in the pavilion"

Lu Min looked at the servant's hand, but saw that there was a pavilion in the center of Biqing Lake, and there were bursts of fairy mist, like a fairyland.

"General, this Gusu is very good at enjoying it."

As he was talking, a boatman got off the boat, "General, please come here."

Mu Yuyan glanced sideways slightly, "You stay here"

"Good"

Mu Yuyan followed the boatman to the boat and rowed to the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

In the pavilion, a man dressed in a white brocade robe with his hair half scattered over his shoulders is painting a picture of the green mountains on both sides of the lake.

When Mu Yuyan arrived, it happened that there was still the last stroke left in the painting, and Gu Su gently outlined it, and a landscape ink painting was completed.

Gu Su put down the pen in his hand and said "general" to the man very respectfully

"Sit down"

Gusu added a cup of new tea for the man in early spring.

"How about the general taste the tea I roasted?"

The man picked up the teacup, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, "It's still a little hot, and this tea is a little old" and took a sip gently, "It retains the fragrance of tea"

"It's rare, I heard a compliment from the general's mouth"

“..........”

"Mu Yu came to me"

"What did you say?"

"Just said that he was sorry for you, and left"

He ...... Where is it now? "When it comes to Mu Yu, most men are still a little unbearable.

Gu Su shook his head, "After leaving, there will be no more news" After a moment of silence, he said, "Most of them hanged themselves, the general didn't kill him, he was already open to him"

"What about his mother?"

"I gave him a sum of money, which should have been settled"

Mu Yuyan thought for a moment, and finally just gently spit out the word "good".

"How do you plan to come back this time?" Gusu changed his words and got to the point.

Mu Yuyan's eyes drooped, "Yuxuan came to me"

"Second prince?" Gusu knew that the second prince had a good relationship with Mu Yuyan, "The second prince wants the general to help him seize the crown prince?" Gusu said.

"Yes"

"Then the general promised him?"

"Never"

"General, although you have a deep friendship with the second prince, you have been planning this matter for twelve years, and you must not give up all your efforts."

"I know"

"The emperor summoned the general back to Nanxun this time, I'm afraid he didn't want the general to go back, and the military power in the general's hands has become a nail in the emperor's palm."

The man snorted coldly, "Then let's see if he has the ability."

"The 100,000 elite soldiers under my command are at the disposal of the general"

"Right Prime Minister Li Fu ............"

"Li Fu has already surrendered to Concubine De"

Mu Yuyan rubbed the lid of the cup, "Really?" Concubine De really wants to cover the sky with one hand? ”

"This supreme right is a fatal attraction in the eyes of anyone"

Mu Yuyan got up, looked into the distance, "Find a chance to ........." and said, his toes tapped lightly, and he landed on the water, but the water surface did not move for half a minute, and the man stepped on the water all the way, and his shoes were not wet for half a minute.

Gu Su looked at the man's distant figure in the pavilion, and nodded slowly, it is time for the world to change hands.

On the way back, Mu Yuyan asked Lu Min to go back first, and he led the horse and found a trail.

It's spring, the little wildflowers on the side of the road are blooming brilliantly, and when the wind blows, little by little, it seems to be saying hello to Mu Yuyan.

Walking into the depths of the woods, Mu Yuyan noticed something unusual, and suddenly a group of birds were startled not far away.

Mu Yuyan was not in a hurry, and tied the horse to the tree on the side.

calmly said, "Come out."

In an instant, many black-clothed people poured out from under the trees, holding swords in their hands, aiming at the man.

"Is he so impatient?" With that, the man pulled out the soft sword on his waist and quickly flashed to the side of a man in black, who had time to react, blood spurted out from his throat, and he fell straight to the ground.

When the other men in black saw this, they raised their swords and stepped forward to fight.

The other side

Ye Ruotang was lying on the horse's back, and the bones in his body seemed to be about to fall apart, without any strength.

Originally, he followed behind Mu Yuyan, but he didn't expect the horse to run fast, and he lost it after following him, and he was not familiar with the neighborhood, so he could only wander around at will, the key was that he couldn't ride a horse, and he was hard-headed, which was more terrifying than motion sickness.

"Horse, horse, why don't you take me back?"

As if he understood her words, the horse stopped where it was, glanced around with its tail, and walked slowly forward.

After leaving, Ye Ruotang heard a fight, condensed his breath and pricked up his ears to listen quietly, but it was the sound of fighting.

"Horses, go see"

The horse hastened and walked over and stopped behind a large tree.

Ye Ruotang endured the churning in his stomach and got off the horse, hiding behind a tree and poking his head out to observe the movement in front of him.

A group of men in black are beating up a man.

Phew, isn't that more bullying less? Shameless.

Take a closer look, who is the man who was beaten up if he is not Mu Yuyan?

At this time, Ye Ruotang couldn't stand still, rolled up his sleeves, picked up a branch on the ground, and ran towards the crowd, "You are not allowed to beat my male god"

After Ye Ruotang rushed into the crowd, he closed his eyes and waved his hands indiscriminately, "Don't hit my male god, go away, go away, go away........"

The man in black stopped the fight and looked at the woman, but ......... What is this woman doing?

For a long time, Ye Ruotang thought that he had beaten the man in black away, so he slowly opened his eyes, but he didn't want to, not only did this group of men in black not run, but also looked at him quietly.

Ye Ruotang was startled, lost the branch in his hand, and quickly hid behind Mu Yuyan.

Mu Yuyan was a little confused by her fierce operation...... But the fight still has to be fought.

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the man in black, one turned over to the back, and the soft sword passed through his neck silently, and the white swaying sword body was already dyed with a touch of bright red.

Ye Ruotang stood stiffly in place, staring straight at the dead man in black, his brain seemed to have stopped.

She remembered the dream again, in which she had a sword in her chest, and she could feel the blood in her body flow little by little..........

Ye Ruotang shook his head instantly, his eyes widened, and he ran towards the horse.

Seeing that she was leaving, the man in black hurriedly chased after her, and a sword went straight towards the girl.

Ye Ruotang just stood in place, looking at the sword, but he didn't know how to dodge.

Are you going to die here today?

I closed my eyes tightly, and the tingling sensation was delayed.

He quietly opened his eyes, only to find that the sword had stopped a foot away from him, and the man in black had fallen straight down in front of him.

"Ah..........h

Mu Yuyan covered her mouth with some impatience, and yelled viciously, "Don't scream"

Ye Ruotang immediately closed his mouth.

A pair of peach blossom eyes were covered with water stains, the thick eyelashes were holding teardrops, which had not fallen for a long time, and the tear mole looked even more touching at this time.

Ye Ruotang looked at the man in front of him whose face was getting paler and paler, his heart tightened, and he caught it firmly at the moment when the man was about to fall.

"Male god, male god, what's wrong with you?" Tears flowed down her slender neck to her clothes, and Ye Ruotang was completely panicked.

Mu Yuyan didn't have time to say anything, so he fainted.

"Male god, what's wrong with you? Male god, wake up quickly" In an instant, Ye Ruotang found that something was wrong, slowly took out his right hand, found the blood stains on his hand, and looked down to see that Mu Yuyan had been stabbed in the waist at some point.

Ye Ruotang cried even more, she was afraid that Mu Yuyan would die like this.

But when I calmed down, I stopped crying, and I had to think of a way.

Ye Ruotang put the man flat on the ground, "Male god, you wait for me here, I'll go find someone to save you"

As he spoke, he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and ran outside.

After walking for a long time, I saw a house, and as if I had found a life-saving straw, I ran over with a crawl.

The wooden door made a dull noise, and it was a long time before someone poked their head out.

"Girl, who are you looking for?"

"Little brother, please save my husband" Ye Ruotang couldn't hold back his cry anymore.

The little guy who opened the door was frightened by her appearance, and hurriedly comforted him and said, "Girl, don't cry yet, what happened?" ”

"My husband and I went out to play, but we didn't want to meet a group of bandits, and now my husband was cut by that group of bandits, and he was in that forest" Ye Ruotang pointed in the direction where he came.

"Girl, don't worry, I'll go and report to my son-in-law" The little maid closed the door.

In the middle of the night, the wooden door opened again, and what came out was a son in a white brocade robe, Ye Ruotang couldn't care so much, grabbed the man's robe tightly with one hand, and cried a little choked.

"Please also son, save my husband"

"Don't be afraid, girl, take me quickly"

Ye Ruotang trotted all the way to the forest.

When Gusu arrived, he saw that it was the general lying on the ground, his brows tightened, his face seemed to be a little angry, and he picked up the man horizontally.

Gu Su knew some medical skills, and after bandaging Mu Yuyan's wounds, his brows were still not relaxed, and the general was poisoned, but this poison did not seem to be a thing of the Central Plains.

"Girl, can you tell me the ins and outs of Fang Cai?"

Ye Ruotang had already calmed down at this time, and said word for word what he had just encountered.

At the end, looking at Gusu's white brocade robe, stained with blood, "Childe, your clothes are stained by me, I'll pay you another day."
