Chapter 35 If you owe a favor, you have to pay it back
In April of the following year, it was a good time for flowers to bloom, but Mu Qingyun on Yuxu Mountain was in a sunny and cloudy mood.
He Shuning used her wild intuition to sense that Mu Qingyun's mood was not high, and she walked over, "Senior sister? ”
Mu Qingyun pinched a small note two fingers wide and looked back, "It's you, what's wrong?" ”
He Shuning leaned against the stone railing of the martial arts training ground, "Do you have something on your mind?" ”
Mu Qingyun took a deep breath, "Look at this." ”
"Qin Zhengde? Isn't this the same uncle who secretly gave you two little gold ingots so that we could have a haunt and flee Kyoto? He Shuning said as he reached out and took the small note handed over by Mu Qingyun.
"Well, now that he's looking for my help, he's using the messenger eagle I left for him."
This Qin Zhengde is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of the Dynasty, and he is one of the ministers who the deceased old emperor left to the current little emperor, he has a good character, but he is very tactful, and he can often adhere to his principles and bottom line on the premise of not offending the Empress Dowager Zhang, and he can be said to be a real old fox.
At the beginning, Mu Qingyun suddenly received a marriage decree because of the top student in high school, and it was this Lord Qin of the Ministry of Rites who came to pass the decree.
He asked the Empress Dowager Zhang for this errand under the banner of "being happy", but secretly took the opportunity to hand the Empress Dowager's decree to Mu Qingyun, and secretly stuffed two small gold ingots weighing five taels to Mu Qingyun.
Mu Qingyun was stunned by his wave of commotion - how could the big guy who delivered the decree stuff the money into the little white who received the decree? Shouldn't it be her rewarding the "angel" who passed on the decree a lot of money?
Although she is very poor, let alone "heavy gold", even "heavy copper" she can't afford to reward, but this rule is still that rule, it can't be because she is too poor, the person who delivers the decree and the person who receives the decree have their positions reversed, right?
It wasn't until Qin Zhengde said "congratulations" to her in an official tone that she heard some deeply hidden hints from the other party's flowery polite words.
It was precisely because he understood some of the hints hidden in the other party's words that Mu Qingyun would send a text message to this Lord Qin after returning to Yuxu Mountain.
The text message is "short" worthy of its name, and on the small note two fingers wide, Mu Qingyun simply wrote two lines of small characters with a blackened charcoal pen, "The grace of the gift will be repaid one day, but there is a request for the Eagle to send a message."
Qin Zhengde never expected that his momentary kindness could actually form such a good fate, after all, in the eyes of all the princes, nobles, ministers and high-ranking officials, including him, Mu Qingyun was just a little scholar from a poor background.
Even if she is talented and young, then she will never have the ability to do it against the court.
If it weren't for the fact that others were old and sophisticated, and after observation, they found that Mu Qingyun was arrogant and strong, and he didn't really have much awe of Empress Dowager Zhang, if it weren't for the fact that he was worried that this young man would refuse to accept Yi's decree for a while, thus bringing death to himself, how could he go to rob the eunuch's work?
It wasn't until the palace guards sent out by Empress Dowager Zhang returned to Beijing with their tails between their legs that Lord Qin realized in hindsight that they had all mistaken the slender young man named Mu Qingyun.
They thought that the other party was a Wenqu star, but the other party coldly revealed that he was actually both civil and military.
He also felt that he had broken his heart for the young man, but it turned out that people didn't need him to do much to help with gold and silver.
How did he know that in fact, Mu Qingyun needed his "troubled" help very much.
If it weren't for him taking the opportunity to pass the decree and stuff two ingots of gold to Mu Qingyun, Mu Qingyun and He Shuning, who were already so poor that they could only go to the temple, how could they have lived so nourishingly on the way to escape?
"It turned out that there was an accident at his daughter's in-law's house." After reading the small note that Mu Qingyun handed her, He Shuning raised his eyes and looked at his senior sister, "Are you going?" ”
Mu Qingyun nodded, "I have to pay it back if I owe favors, although I may not be able to protect everyone in the Wu family, but I should at least go and rescue Lord Qin's daughter and grandson." ”
"Then I'll go with you. At least half of those two ingots of gold went into my stomach. ”
Mu Qingyun couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, you just don't want to go, I will pull you over with me." ”
He Shuning is the strongest combat power she can pull, and Mu Qingyun will give up this strongest foreign aid if she is stupid.
She raised her hand and pinched He Shuning's tender little face, "I'll go to Shizu now, and you ask Yong'an to help me prepare the horses." ”
Lord Qin's only daughter, her husband's family is far away in the southeast coastal area, thousands of miles back and forth, and it is estimated that they can lose weight three times just by relying on light work.
In addition, they needed to compete for time with the messenger sent by the imperial court, so Mu Qingyun immediately thought of asking people to prepare horses.
He Shuning pouted and knocked out his senior sister's claws, "How many horses are you going to prepare?" ”
"Three horses."
"Why don't you take Yan Er with you?"
Mu Qingyun was slightly stunned, "Why did you think of taking Yan Er with you?" ”
"He cooks deliciously." Seeing Mu Qingyun's disapproval, He Shuning hurriedly added a few more words, "And he also does a good job of poison and ecstasy, and his formation and mechanism skills have also been achieved a little." ”
Mu Qingyun touched his chin and hesitated for a moment, "Then you go and ask him if he wants to go with us." Forget it, I'll go and tell him in person, I have to tell him about the crises here. ”
Although He Shuning, Ji Yongan, and herself will focus on Yan Nanxiao, but everything is afraid of just in case, she doesn't want Yan Nanxiao to follow in a daze.
Mu Qingyun, who has always been upright and open, personally found Yan Nanxiao, who was studying diligently in the library.
Now fourteen-year-old Yan Nanxiao has faded most of his childishness, his stunning face, which was already captivating the country and the city, has become more and more handsome as he continues to grow, and now even if he just sits there quietly reading a book, everything around him will be particularly bright and dazzling because of his presence.
Mu Qingyun came upstairs and got straight to the point and told her that she and He Shuning and Ji Yongan were about to rush to the southeast coastal area to save people, and Yan Nanxiao, who was originally a quiet beauty, suddenly revealed her true nature.
The little boy snapped and closed the book, "I'm going too!" I can do a lot of things, and my martial arts have been practiced enough to protect myself, and you won't suffer with me. ”
Mu Qingyun: ......
Do you want to be so positive?
She coughed, and then singled out the dangers that might be encountered on this trip.
"Won't He Ba go with him? With her, shouldn't it be those who are on the opposite side of us who will be in danger? ”
Yan Nanxiao said that Mu Qingyun was speechless.
Although the little boy has not been on the mountain for a long time, he has witnessed with his own eyes what a martial arts wizard He Shuning is.
The internal strength and mental methods practiced by everyone were obviously exactly the same, but the improvement speed of He Shuning's skills was more than twice as fast as that of him and Mu Qingyun, so that he once suspected that He Shuning was actually God's daughter.
With such a big killer to go to the southeast coast, Mu Qingyun actually has to worry about their safety... Should he praise her for being cautious, or should he complain about her excessive idleness?
