Chapter 156: Leaving Beijing, Together
People say that the emperor's family is ruthless, but in fact, the non-emperor's family is also ruthless.
Although Mu Liancheng grew up in the bloody deep palace since he was a child, he is very unfortunate, but at least he still has the love of the queen, and the Yang family has been doing his backstage, compared to Feng Qingmad, he is already lucky.
"According to the investigation, your grandfather, Mr. Lin, had traveled west by crane the year before last, and Mrs. Lin was still alive, but her body was not as good as day by day, and she had to rely on medicine to continue her life."
"Your two uncles have now completely taken over Hongyuan Academy, they are the president and vice president, they both have two sons and two daughters, they are the same age as you, and they have not yet said goodbye, this is the general situation."
Feng Qingfang had the impression that the original owner had never seen Mr. Lin, and he had no family affection for the people over there, so she didn't feel anything when she heard that the so-called grandfather had passed away.
As for how many people there are in the Lin family, she doesn't care if those cousins say they are related, she just has a general situation.
"The people I sent over are still doing more in-depth investigations, and it is difficult to say whether Mencius Yan is still alive." Mu Liancheng wrinkled his eyebrows and said.
Feng Qing thought for a while and said, "Instead of waiting here, I might as well go to Luzhou City in person, and take a look in person, with my identity, I can better enter the Lin family's internal investigation." ”
Listening to the tone, this was already her decision, not discussing it with Mu Liancheng.
"You don't want to use this as an excuse to slip away, do you?" Mu Liancheng cast a questioning gaze.
His eyes have always been sharp, and his intuition has always been sharp, and he always seems to be able to see through people's hearts, which makes Feng Qingqi very weak.
"How so? Am I such a broken promise? She sneered to hide her uneasiness, and to be honest, she was such a person.
She thought about it, after finding out the truth in Lanzhou and giving an explanation to the original owner, she went away and never came back.
Mu Liancheng stared at Feng's frantic eyes, and the expression on his face seemed to be smiling.
Feng Qingfang was stared at so much that his scalp was numb, and he hurriedly said: "If you don't worry, then let Xiao Luo follow me, she is so powerful, I can't escape under her nose, right?" ”
For a long time, Mu Liancheng didn't give an answer.
"How?" Feng asked cautiously.
Mu Liancheng looked away and said, "Okay, it's up to you." ”
Hearing this, Feng Qingfang was secretly happy in her heart, Qin Luo's martial arts were strong and he was also shrewd, but as long as she left the capital and was not in Mu Liancheng's sphere of influence, she would have a way to escape.
"When are you going to leave?" Mu Liancheng seemed to ask casually.
So Feng replied casually: "I want to prepare, it should be the day after tomorrow." ”
Mu Liancheng didn't say anything more, but lowered his eyes thoughtfully.
The next day, Feng Qingfang packed up in the Guogong Mansion, she always liked to travel lightly, and it was troublesome to have too much baggage, so she only brought three sets of clothes plus all the belongings she had saved for half a year.
Fortunately, most of them are silver tickets, and they don't weigh much, and as for the jewelry and other items that Mu Liancheng has given away in recent months, she has no plans to pack them and take them away.
Except for the jade-encrusted daggle.
This was given to her by Mu Liancheng for self-defense when she was recuperating in the Prince's Mansion.
Since it is for self-defense, of course you should bring it with you when you go out.
"Third girl, the carriage is ready, have you finished packing?" Qin Luo walked in with brisk steps, and suddenly glanced at the short knife in Feng Qing's hand, revealing a look of surprise.
"Isn't this the Willow Moon Knife that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has carried on his body since he was a child? When did you give it to you? ”
Feng lightly paused slightly: "You said this?" The prince has been with him since he was a child? ”
Qin Luo nodded seriously: "Yes, this is a short knife specially created by General Yang for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when he was alive, it is made of dark iron, named Liuyue Knife, it is the only relic left by the old general to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has carried it with him since he was a child, and he almost never leaves his body." ”
It turns out that this short knife still has such an important significance...... Feng lightly touched the ruby gem on it, remembering that when Mu Liancheng gave it to her, she didn't say a word.
He was able to give her something so precious, which showed his sincerity, but what she wanted at the time was to dig up the gems on it and exchange it for money.
It's good that I didn't, otherwise it would have been too much......
But this is a relic left by General Yang to Mu Liancheng, how can she accept it?
Why don't you find a chance to return it to him then?
But will he be angry?
"Girl, girl?"
Qin Luo's cry pulled Feng Qing's frantic thoughts back, "Let's go." ”
Since this trip to Lanzhou was to go to Lin's house to investigate the truth of Lin Yitang's death, Feng Qingfang didn't dare to tell Feng Heng the truth, so he had to lie to him last night that he was going to Qinglu Temple to worship the Buddha, and fasted there for about half a month, quietly.
Feng Heng has always felt that this kid has been in a hurry in the past few years, and it is time to calm down, so he has no objection.
So, Feng Qingyan could go out with a swagger under the banner of going to Qinglu Temple.
As soon as the day dawned, the two of them rode out of the south gate in a carriage, preparing to go south.
The scenery of Lanzhou is good, go at this season, you can see the green mountains and beautiful waters along the way, Feng Qingfang planned to go before, so he was very excited.
However, not far out of the city, the carriage was stopped.
Poked his head out and took a look, the blue figure on horseback came into view, who was Mu Liancheng?
"Why are you here?" Feng Qing stared at him vigilantly, and asked unhappily, did this guy regret it and forbid her to go to Lanzhou again?
Mu Liancheng smiled, walked to the carriage window, and whispered: "This palace has official business to go to Lanzhou to do, and it just so happens that the third girl is also going to Lanzhou City, so I chased after you and walked with you." ”
"Business? What's the business? Feng raised his eyebrows wildly, his face full of suspicion.
It's not that she's suspicious, but there won't be such a coincidence, Mu Liancheng must be afraid that she will run away halfway, so he rushed over in person.
Mu Liancheng said proudly: "Since it is an official matter, it is inconvenient to reveal it to you, in short, this palace will go with you all the way." ”
Feng Qingfang almost wanted to cry, the sky is gone, Mu Liancheng wants to accompany him, how shrewd is this guy, she still runs a yarn?
Can she refuse?
The answer is obviously no, Mu Liancheng didn't give Feng Qing a chance to refuse at all, he immediately turned over and dismounted, drove Qin Luo out of the car, and then acted as a coachman himself.
Feng Qingfang looked at Mu Liancheng with a flattered expression, and pretended to exaggerate: "His Royal Highness the Prince, how can you drive a horse with your golden body?" Why don't you let me do it myself, and you can go in and sit down, how about it? ”
She wants to go out and get some air......
Mu Liancheng turned his head and squinted at her coldly: "Hurry up and sit back for me." ”
What is the tone of voice? Command her? Feng pouted dissatisfiedly, and suddenly heard him say again: "Why don't I go in and sit with you?" ”
"Still don't." Feng Qingfang immediately shrank back, if she sat in the same carriage with Mu Liancheng, she would be even more uncomfortable along the way.
In the end, Feng Qingfang sat obediently in the car, with Mu Liancheng driving the horse, Qin Luo and Er You followed behind on horseback as guards, and the four of them headed south.
Of course, Mu Liancheng didn't just bring one of his subordinates with him, and there were five or six people behind him to follow in the dark.
The scenery along the way is very good, Feng Qing leaned on the window to watch, and soon left Fang Cai's unhappiness behind.
At sunset, the group entered a small town and found an inn to stay at.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Feng opened the package frantically, stared at the willow moon knife for a long time, and finally took it out and knocked on the next room.
Next door was Mu Liancheng, who lived, and after only two knocks, a voice came from inside: "Come in." ”
Pushing open the door, Feng walked in slowly, and saw Mu Liancheng sitting at the table flipping through something, and when he got closer, he saw that it was an official document.
Oh ho~ I have to be busy with official business when I go far away, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really busy and diligent!
Mu Liancheng looked up and saw that it was Feng Qingfang, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Frivolous? Why haven't you slept yet? ”
"Didn't you sleep too?" Feng said with a chuckle, sighing in his heart, workaholism is different.
"A few official documents need to be read as soon as possible and sent out, otherwise things will be delayed." Mu Liancheng put down his pen and took another sip of tea, "You came to me so late, is there something wrong?" ”
Feng Qingfang hesitated for a moment and put the Liuyue Knife on the table with his back behind him.
"I'll give it back to you."
Mu Liancheng's brows immediately furrowed, his originally soft gaze became cold, and his whole person exuded a cold aura.
"Why?"
"This is a relic left to you by General Yang, it's too valuable, I, I can't accept it." Feng Qingfang was a little stunned, but he still gritted his teeth and said it.
"I gave it to you, that's yours, there is no reason to take it back." Mu Liancheng didn't look at the short knife on the table, and said coldly.
What he gives out, he never takes it back.
Ever since she learned the true origin of this short knife, it had become a psychological burden for Feng Qingyan, and she just wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.
"Mu Liancheng, don't you want to be like this, okay? How can I feel at ease when I have such a valuable thing? ”
If she is really the future crown princess, then of course she can accept the willow moon knife, but the problem is that she is not, and she can't be......
Mu Liancheng opened another official document and looked down, as if he was not angry, but the chill emanating from his body was getting stronger and stronger, making Feng Qingyan feel like he was shrouded in low pressure.
"This palace is still the same sentence, what is sent out will never be taken back, if you don't like it, you can throw it away."
"This ......" Feng was speechless and choked, this is a relic left by the old general, alas, how dare she throw it? Isn't that a problem for her?
"Anyway, I'll send it back to you, you can do it."
Feng Qing snorted wildly, she didn't believe it, Mu Liancheng could still throw away her grandfather's relics by herself.
