Chapter Eighty-Seven: As Long as You Have the Ability
Mu Cangping has never hidden his partiality.
Mu Dian is smart, has aura, and looks like him in every way. Because of this, her every move, every smile and smile won his heart and made him heartily happy. This kind of pride and joy was only experienced when Mu Zijian was just born and he was a father for the first time.
The Kim family did more than he did.
Yueting's temperament is actually not very strong, but she can't resist the loss of always coming out with Mu Dianke, which always makes her shine.
This loss does not happen overnight, but accumulates over time.
Even later, Mu Dianke realized this problem, and always took the trouble to argue with others: "My sister is also very smart. "My sister is the most beautiful little girl in the world. Preceded by her wisdom, she would even accurately capture Mu Yueting's envious eyes, and transfer the gift that had not yet been covered in her hand to her.
But it is precisely this kind of empathy, because of the childish expression of the child's lack of mellowness, that it is very easy to be confused with similar emotions such as pity and charity, and it pierces a girl's sensitive heart more and more.
Later, Mu Dian was gone.
Mu Dian can repay her for her love and debt to her youngest daughter, as well as the guilt of Mu Yueting herself in the early years.
However, the imprint of childhood memories can often be deep enough to accompany a person for a lifetime.
Like him, when he was young, he took on the responsibility of leading his clansmen out of the Green Canyon, practicing swords in the ice and snow, and he couldn't bear to push the door even if his hands and feet were black. Later, he hugged his coat and sat in the house with charcoal fire, and when he saw the snowflakes flying outside, he still felt a kind of cold from the depths of his soul.
Another example is Mu Lan, she was hungry when she was a child, and when she grew up, she was obsessed with hunting for all kinds of rare food, extravagant, and wasteful at will.
- This is spiritual hunger, which cannot be replenished by eating more food.
Mu Yueting doesn't love her sister, but there is a lack in her heart, and in order to fill it, she always consciously or unconsciously wants to be separated from Mu Dianke.
She may not like Jin Yanchen so much, but because Jin Yanchen belongs to Mu Dianke, she always wants it.
In the middle and late months of the month, the full moon has been lost.
The atrium is covered with white moonlight, and the streamers are like mercury. Before Mu Yueting came back to his senses in a stunned state and felt embarrassed, Mu Cangping turned around and walked away on the mercury flowing all over the ground, with a suppressed whimpering cry behind him.
He knew the words were cruel.
If he had been ruthless earlier, Mu Yueting would not have been nineteen years old today, and he would still be so naïve.
He protected her too well. And in this life, most of the growth of people, is to experience pain.
Mu Ziyan sat by the pool and sharpened his knife.
The foot-wide and inch-thick barren broadsword was lifted from the lotus flower pond, and a silver waterfall was hung out with a "bang", and cold beads splashed everywhere.
The green iron reflected the moonlight, reflecting large and small spots of light towards the sky. With Mu Ziyan's movements as he sharpened his knife, these white clusters of light flickered back and forth in the courtyard, sometimes on the trees, sometimes on the wall, and occasionally flashed across Mu Cangping's face.
"I probably know why Mu Zijin went back."
Mu Ziyan sharpened his knife with his back to Mu Cangping, and a little stiffness could be seen on his broad back, which was not as relaxed as his tone, "I really admire your courage." As you wish, I'll practice the sword behind closed doors, and I can't say who it will face in the future. ”
"As long as you have the ability." Mu Cangping said.
Mu Ziyan was silent.
Mu Cangping's overly calm reaction made him feel like a angry child talking negative words, naïve and useless.
Mu Cangping's heart is iron, how can he stab him?
"You took Qu Yu'er to exchange for Xiao Si'er and came back, did you give up your eldest brother?" Mu Ziyan asked again.
This time it was Mu Cang's turn to be silent.
"Little Four won't let your eldest brother die." After a while, he said.
Mu Ziyan snorted, stood up with a knife, and swaggered past Mu Cangping.
He has always behaved uninhibitedly, but today, this kind of casualness and frivolity is so prominent that it seems deliberate.
deliberately, indicating that the heart is not at peace.
Although he has always had the upper hand in words, and even his address to Mu Cangping has changed from "you" to "you", Mu Cangping stood there quietly, and there was a momentum that could not be suppressed. insulting him, in the end, he embarrassed himself.
"Did you write a letter to Fang Yan?" Mu Cangping asked behind him.
"Yes!"
Mu Ziyan's momentum increased sharply, he turned around and threw the desolate knife into the dirt under his feet, and said with full anger: "I told him that our father and son caught the wife of the rebel Jin Yanchen and were repeatedly robbed on the way to Jiankang. Along the way, local officials shrank and shirked for fear of retaliation from Kinmen, and no one dared to accept the matter. So I asked him to send troops to take over the prisoners. ”
"Your hand makes me look up to you." Mu Cangping said.
Mu Ziyan "snorted" and didn't speak, waiting for Mu Cangping's next reaction.
He wrote such a letter to Fang Yan as the third son of the Mu family, in black and white, which was undeniable.
If Mu Cangping refuses to hand over Qu Yu'er, then this handwritten letter from him will be ironclad evidence that Mu Cangping and Jin Yanchen are in the same boat and have great rebellious intentions.
And the officials who are afraid of shirking things mentioned in my heart are all officials in the camp of the Soviet Union and Ningbo who have dirty political achievements or personal morality.
Fang Yan, who couldn't get anyone, would be happy to shake the letter out and take the opportunity to beat Ning Yu and Su Shi with a rake. Even if nothing can be found in the end, it is a false accusation by the Mu family's father and son, and Yu Fangrong is not harmed.
"I am impressed with you, which means that you have changed the old arrogant and irritable problem, and your tone is so strict."
Mu Ziyan's heart was slightly cold, and his momentum was not lost: "Tell you in advance, let you deal with it in advance?" ”
Mu Cangping smiled, it was a pleasing relief for the children, "It makes sense." Have you ever thought that your plan is really foolproof? What if this letter doesn't reach the heavens? ”
The sarcastic smile on the corner of Mu Ziyan's mouth froze.
It's not that he is careless, I'm afraid no one would think about it, if he intercepted a letter sent to the Son of Heaven from Fang Rong, who had deep roots in the tree, this thing would still succeed.
"If it was the old Fang Rong, I would probably be embarrassed." Mu Cang said slowly: "But now, the two clans have lost their position, the Suning family, which is full of saints, is worried that they don't have the opportunity to step on their heads, Fang Qingyan's status is not guaranteed, and the palace people love money and profit, no matter which aspect I start, I can easily replace this letter." No matter how bad it is, I can go to Jizhou. ”
Mu Ziyan's heart was cold for a moment.
Break into Fang Yan's Chinese army tent and take the letter back. If he changed to other people, he might not even dare to think about it, but Mu Cangping had the confidence to say this.
It seems that this basin of cold water is not taught thoroughly, Mu Cangping continued.
"Or maybe you're thinking too highly of yourself?" Mu Cangping's voice was cold: "You want to drag all the people surnamed Mu to die with you, haven't you heard an allusion called 'give up a corner and protect the safety of the eight counties'?" I can choose to kill my relatives in righteousness and abolish you first. ”
"Squeak—"
"Squeak-squeak-"
In the summer grass of the pond, the crickets make a constant cry, piercing the solemnity in the air.
"What else can't you do?"
Mu Ziyan's strong momentum was extinguished, and only the last bit of unyielding in his bones remained: "If you want to threaten me with this, let me be at your mercy." I tell you, there are no doors. ”
Mu Cangping had no intention of arguing with Mu Ziyan.
He was willing to say so many things, not to show Mu Ziyan how capable he was, and how stupid Mu Ziyan's actions were.
"Fang Yan's lieutenant Wang Wuzhi will arrive early tomorrow morning." Mu Cangping said in a simple voice: "When the time comes, you follow me and see what real politician means." ”
He snorted: "Fang Rong's two surnames are standing tall for two dynasties, and they need you to plan for them?" ”
