Zhaoyun snorted: "Don't think too much about it, this is just a sweet and sour sauce wrapped in a layer of sweet and sour!" ”

"That's, that's good!" Li Jun smiled hehehe, and then sat down again.

Zhaoyun bowed to him, and said, "My lord, I still have something to say to you about this saying, I don't know ......"

She deliberately dragged out the end and looked around in embarrassment.

Li Jun didn't understand when she saw it, she had something to say to herself.

Then he waved his hand casually and sent the rest of the crowd away.

"What do you want to say to this officer? Now let's talk about it! He glanced at Zhaoyun casually, picked up the spoon and took another sip of mung bean soup.

It turned out that this person had already discovered his intentions, and he had just been playing tricks on her!

Seeing him cross-legged Erlang, drinking the mung bean soup in the bowl spoonful after spoonful, Zhaoyun said coldly.

"Do you know that there have been rogues in the Western Sea recently?"

The fingers holding the spoon were almost invisible, but they still fell into Zhaoyun's eyes.

"Where did you know that?" Li Jun put down the spoon and suddenly made a crisp sound.

"That Mr. Su told me before he left that the rogues in the Western Sea often rob ships coming and going."

"So what?" Li Junzheng looked at her, "Are you afraid that our ship will also meet?" ”

Zhaoyun nodded.

"Those water bandits and rogues are just robbing that kind of small merchant ship, how dare they make a mistake when we are such a big official ship?"

Seeing him sneering and not paying much attention to it, this was also something she expected.

It is not a matter of a day or two for bandits to rob ships in the West Sea. If he, the person who has done the promotion of the division, said that he had never even heard of this matter, Zhaoyun would never believe it.

Looking at the huge jade wrench he put on his thumb, a few thoughts flashed through Zhao Yun's mind, and he tore his lips and teeth and said loudly.

"The adults have been officials for many years, and their knowledge and courage are the best in their fields, but in this matter, the people feel that it is better to pay attention to it. Although we are an official ship, it is difficult to ensure that those bandits will not be able to do evil. My lord, we need to take precautions! ”

"Okay, the official knows, you go down first!" As soon as Zhaoyun's words fell, he waved his hand, and his tone was still impatient.

Zhaoyun had no choice but to take the lacquer plate and reluctantly retreated from the main cabin.

Unbeknownst to him, Li Jun gently flicked the jade wrench on his thumb, and was watching her away with a complicated expression.

Out of the main cabin of Zhaoyun, looking at the faint mountains in the distance, thinking about the conversation with Li Jun, there is an indescribable strangeness in his heart.

Li Jun can not only achieve the position of the secretary of the office, but how can he only collect money and only eat, drink and have fun?

can achieve such a high position, and is still a weak crown year, if she doesn't have the means and courage, she will never believe it.

But if she warned him so bitterly, and he was still so indifferent, she thought, there were probably only two possibilities.

The first is Li Junhe, who is stubborn and self-serving, and insists on going his own way. If not, then he could only be acting with her.

In the post station on the border of Yunqi.

Mu Xici suddenly woke up from his dream and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Sit up straight and look out the window.

Since Xiwu came to Yunqi for more than a month, he has been repeatedly dreaming a long time.

The scene in the dream continued to twist and turn as the scene continued, and the scene seemed to emerge in front of my eyes. It's so familiar, yet it's real!

It's just that the face of the woman in the dream has always been like a cloud through the mist. Hazy, as if real as illusory, but not real.

But in yesterday's dream, the clouds and mist that were hidden dissipated completely.

It's her! It's really her!

Princess Zhaoyun of Yun Qiguo!

Why did he keep dreaming of having her? Is this their past life, or the future?

Thinking of this, Mu Xici immediately put on his shoes and opened the door.

"Master!" He Xun, who was already waiting outside the door, hurriedly saluted him.

"What are you doing here?" Mu Xi asked with a frown.

"This morning, the people from the post station came to spread the word and said......" He Xun lowered his head.

"What did you say?" Mu Xici saw his hesitant appearance and asked anxiously.

"Say, said that last night at the Guangyuan Inn, there was a fire in the wing room where Princess Zhaoyun lived. Nowadays, I'm afraid that it will be more than lucky! ”

As soon as the words fell, Mu Xici's heart felt a heart-wrenching pain. These words, like a boulder, overwhelmed him.

"Prepare the horse, I'm going to go to the Guangyuan Inn in person!" Mu Xici slammed his fist into the wall.

The gray walls left only a red stain of blood.

When he returned to the chamber and put on a casual robe, he immediately went out and turned over his horse, and galloped away like an arrow from a bow.

"Master, you wait for me!" He Xun drove the horse and followed closely.

It would have taken an hour to get to the Guangyuan Inn, but it only took them half an hour to arrive.

Mu Xici hurriedly turned over and dismounted, looking at the four big characters "Guangyuan Inn" engraved on the plaque, and couldn't help clenching his fists.

As soon as he approached the hall, he saw the soldiers lying on the ground, and he frowned and asked, "What about you in charge?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a voice answered: "I'm in charge of things!" ”

And he saw the treasurer turn out from behind the pillar, and bow to him.

"Who are you?" Mu Xici looked at his embarrassed appearance, and unconsciously frowned his sword eyebrows tighter.

"I'm the shopkeeper of this inn!"

As soon as Mu Xici heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar, and lifted him up.

"Where's the princess?" Mu Xici's eyes were full of anger, staring at him.

"Bai, Lord Bai was injured last night, and now he is resting in the wing."

Mu Xi didn't say a word, immediately loosened his collar, took two steps at a time, and went straight upstairs.

The smoke on the second floor had not completely dissipated, and as soon as Mu Xici and He Xun went upstairs, they couldn't help but cough a few times, and hurriedly covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves.

I saw that the corridors in front of me had been blackened by the fire. Mu Xici gritted his teeth and looked at the wing room at the corner of the stairs, and what caught his eye was even more swarthy.

Inside the wings, there was smoke and ashes from the fire.

"There's still a fire over there!"

As soon as Shopkeeper He's words fell, the wooden bucket full of water in his hand was snatched away.

Mu Xici snatched it, lifted the barrel high, and poured it down.

"Master!" As soon as He Xun wanted to stop him, he saw that he had resolutely rushed into the mess, digging the ashes under his feet regardless of it.

He Xun glanced at the soldier who was stunned, and hurriedly snatched a bucket of water from one person's hand, and after pouring it on his head, he immediately rushed in.

He picked up two pieces of wood that had been burned to the point of only one part, handed them to Mu Xici, and hurriedly shouted to a few people outside the door: "Why are you still stunned here, why don't you come in and help?" ”

A few people just buried their heads in the thick ash under their feet. When He Xun was removing a wooden beam lying on the ground, he suddenly found a piece of red cloth left over from the ashes.

He hurriedly picked it up and handed it to Mu Xici, who was trying to search for it on the side: "Master, this is?" ”

"Dig, keep digging for me!" Mu Xici took the red cloth, and his eyes were about to split, "Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to dig people out with me!" ”

He roared hoarsely, but there was still a trace of thought in his heart.

It's not her! She must still be alive!

It didn't take long for He Xun to suddenly notice that there seemed to be a hard object under his feet.

He quickly crouched down and picked up the hard object from the ashes. When I looked closely, my face changed drastically in an instant.

"Master, this is not ......"

Mu Xici, who was anxious on the side, buried his head in the ashes at his feet, suddenly looked up at the white object in He Xun's hand.

He trembled and stretched out his hands stained with ashes and took them gently. When the ashes on it were wiped clean and the claws on it were seen, the pupils suddenly shrank.

This, this is indeed the jade pendant he gave to Zhaoyun!

When he looked at the crack on it, across the entire crest, the scenes in the dream came to him like a tide.

"I don't believe that's the result!" What is his eye?? Wanting to crack, he said hoarsely, "Dig!" Keep digging for me! Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to dig it out for me! ”

He Xun on the side suddenly saw his master's eyes red and trembling slightly, and he was shocked.

On weekdays, the master always looks calm, as if he is not stained with fireworks in the world. And now it is for a princess of an enemy country who has only met a few times, and she is so angry and sad.

The word love is really incomprehensible!

It didn't take long for the exclamation of the soldier to come: "This ...... This is? ”

Mu Xici hurriedly got up and went with the prestige. I saw a charred corpse. Lying in the ashes, the body is already unrecognizable.

Corpse. There is still a remnant of bright red cloth around the body that has not been burned by the fire. Fragments, like red dead leaves withering from the branches in late autumn.

decayed, but in the midst of all withering surroundings, so conspicuous.

But this little bit of red converged in Mu Xici's eyes, constantly rendering into an overwhelming bloodstain.

No, he didn't believe it! He didn't believe that she had left him so easily as she had in her dreams!

This must be another dream! He must have been still dreaming, never awake!

Mu Xici gritted his teeth and suppressed it with all his strength, so as not to let his tears flow out. But the slightly trembling body had already exposed the emotions he had suppressed.

"Master!" He Xun was about to step forward to comfort him, but found that he opened his mouth, but he couldn't even say anything comforting.

He'd never seen him like this.

In his impression, the master has always been a person who strategizes and talks about everything with a smile. Now, it is like a lonely geese......

Sorrow, wailing......

After a long time, Mu Xici calmed down the emotions in his heart a little, and finally glanced at the red fragments scattered on the ground, held the jade pendant with a crested pattern, and walked out with a heavy face.

From beginning to end, he didn't dare to look at "her" again.

In his memory, she had been smiling quietly and gently, how could she lie in front of him so unrecognizable?

He was like an empty shell that had lost his soul, and it wasn't until he went downstairs and was stopped by Bai Yi, who rushed to hear the news, that he slowly came back to his senses.

"The Third Prince of Xiwu?" Bai Yi hurried over with Song Qi.

Mu Xici turned around and saw Bai Yi with a white cloth wrapped around his neck, and couldn't help but clench the jade pendant in his hand, gritting his teeth.

"Lord Bai Yi, should you tell me what's going on?"

"Last night, there were thieves in and out of this inn, and a fire broke out accidentally, causing ...... This is the fault of the next! Bai Yi lowered his head.

"Thieves coming in and out? Caught in a fire? Mu Xici tried his best to restrain his anger, "What a carelessness!" Are all the officials of Yun Qiguo so sloppy? ”

"This is the minister's poor escort, please calm the anger of the third prince!" Bai Yi hurriedly said.

"Anger? Hehe, Lord Bai Yi's words are very funny. Mu Xici smiled contemptuously, "If the person you are going to marry encounters an accident on the way, will you still say such things at that time?"

Besides, she is not only the Princess Zhaoyun of your Yunqi, but also the Princess Mingjing of Xiwu! Harmony is a major matter concerning our two countries, and if you are so rash, then the peace agreement between our two countries might as well be stopped! ”

When Bai Yi heard this, he secretly exclaimed that something was wrong. Only then did he hurriedly step forward and stop Mu Xici, who was about to stride away.

"This matter is that my escort is not effective, I have repaired a book, and ordered someone to send it back to the capital as soon as possible. Please also ask the three princes of Xiwu to be calm and not impatient, we Yun Qiding will give Xiwu an explanation! ”

Mu Xici looked at him coldly: "Okay, then I'll see how Yun Qi gave me an explanation to Xiwu!" But if I want to wait for your explanation, you must agree to my two requests! ”

"What a request, the third prince, please speak!"

"First, you want to find out who is responsible for this fire? You must seize the culprit and hand it over to me. Second, I want to take Princess Zhaoyun's body away! Mu Xi stared at him intently.

"Needless to say, this first request will also be thoroughly investigated and the arson will be caught. But the second request, I'm afraid it ......" Bai Yi suddenly looked embarrassed.

"Princess Zhaoyun is the noble princess of Yunqi Kingdom, and now she died on the way to her relatives, but she is still the princess of Xiwu. And he hasn't arrived in Xiwu yet, so he hasn't really married the third prince yet. ”

The suppressed anger in Mu Xici's heart was instantly ignited: "Princess Zhaoyun is in the realm of Yunqi, and something happened under the escort of your Lord Bai, you dare to say such things to me!" ”

"That's right, Lord Bai, you are just an official of Yunqi, what qualifications do you have to refuse the request of our third prince!" He Xun on the side pursed his lips.

Mu Xici glanced at He Xun, and the corners of his mouth suddenly had a shallow smile: "It's okay if you don't agree, but I'll talk about ugliness in front." ”

When He Xun on the side saw his master's expression, he immediately mourned for this Lord Bai for three seconds.

Sure enough, I heard the voice of my master, Ling Ling.

"Since it is your fault Yunqi, if you do not agree to my request, then the contract between our two countries will be immediately null and void. Then you Yunqi have to prepare, and then you can be busy! ”

"The prince is threatening me!" Bai Yi clenched his fists and glared at him angrily.

"How can Lord Bai say such an unbearable statement? What is a threat? Mu Xici sneered, "I'm just negotiating with you."

If the adults still insist on sticking to the rules, then I am informing you Yunqi by saying this! Prepare well to meet the Iron Cavalry of Xiwu! ”

"You! It's so deceitful! Bai Yi's eyes widened, but he still had a calculation in his heart.
