Second Master Mu wore a half-new robe, green cloth shoes, fair and handsome, with three locks of long beard, and a very solemn expression.

Tian Youwei thought that he was from Mrs. Mu's subordinates, and he was also the head of the academy, most of them were very strict, and they were very energetic, and they didn't dare to make the slightest mistake, so they were afraid to disgust him and refused to come to the rescue.

Who would have thought that Second Master Mu was not as strict as she imagined, and his tone was very soft: "You are Ah Wei of the Tian family?" ”

Ah Wei of the Tian family, this title suddenly shortened the distance between the two.

Tian Youwei's nervous mood gradually eased: "Yes, sir, the junior's surname is Tian Youwei." ”

"I know what you're here for, and we're willing to do it. However, in view of the fact that the incident has just happened, it seems too fake for us to go over and take the initiative to recognize our relatives. As far as I know, the imperial court will send envoys at the end of the year, and it will be easy to operate at that time. Until then, you'll have to try to save his life, until then. ”

Second Master Mu's tone was soft, but what he said was not the result Tian Youwei wanted.

When it comes to trying to save his life, it's just a sentence, and anyone can say it with their mouths moving, and it's like climbing to the sky.

Can Shao Jing wait until that time?

She lowered her head, trying to control her emotions and not let the tears fall.

Old Madam Mu handed over a handkerchief and sighed: "If you want to cry, cry, there is no need to endure it." ”

Tian Youwei shook her head, she wanted to speak but couldn't open her mouth, because she couldn't help crying as soon as she opened her mouth.

She knew that the Mu family was right, but she was really afraid.

"You didn't say it sooner." Second Master Mu sighed: "If you had said it earlier, I would have planned early, and I would not have been in a dilemma." ”

Tian Youwei choked up and explained: "The stakes are very high, and I don't dare to drag too many people down, and at the same time, I don't dare to talk nonsense." ”

How can such a secret thing be casually spoken?

Old Madam Mu said angrily: "Why don't you dare to talk nonsense? How is it a drag? My eldest was chopped alive for that one! Although I felt sorry for my child, I never complained, feeling that he should not be and was not worth it. He's taken ninety-nine steps, not that one!

I said to the second child, since we can't go on the Northern Expedition, let's stay in this Xiangyang City to teach and educate people, and teach the children how to be upright people! As long as there are still scholars in the world, there are wind and bones, they will not be destroyed! ”

Tian Youwei stood with her hands tied and listened solemnly.

Old Madam Mu painfully wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, was silent for a long time, and waved her hand: "Tell me what marks there are on that child's body." ”

Tian Youwei didn't care about being shy, and said, "There is a bruised mole under his left shoulder bone. ”

Old Madam Mu said, "Are you not mistaken? ”

"Nope." Tian Youwei felt that she had not yet married Shao Jing, so she knew the marks on his body, for fear that the Mu family would think that she was unruly, so she explained: "There are many rivers in our Yuyao, the weather is hot, and the children love to play in the water. ”

Old Madam Mu looked at Second Master Mu: "Second Child, look at this ......"

Second Master Mu pondered for a long time with his beard, and then spoke.

Tian Youwei's anxious heart finally settled down a little, and she immediately got up and said goodbye: "Without further ado, I should go back." ”

Old Madam Mu squinted her eyes slightly: "How do you go back?" I'm afraid that as soon as you enter the city gate with your front foot, someone will be caught with your back foot. ”

Tian Youwei was not in a hurry: "Before I came, the juniors had plans, and I was ready to tell them openly that I was here to ask you for help." You are deeply respected by the Queen Mother, and I just happen to have some friendship with you, so it is normal for you to save people. ”

Old Madam Mu nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's not bad for these two days, you drink the two pairs of medicines first, rest and recuperate before leaving, since you want to go back openly, I will go back with you in the car." ”

Tian Youwei was both grateful and worried: "The weather has been getting hotter and hotter recently, can you stand it along the way?" ”

"Stand it." Old Madam Mu stood up and handed her her hand: "Since the big thing has been agreed, you accompany the old woman to the courtyard, let's talk." ”

Tian Youwei hurriedly helped Mrs. Mu steady, and said to Second Master Mu: "Sir, the junior went out with the old lady first. ”

Second Master Mu bowed slightly, stroked his beard and meditated.

"I really don't know how to thank you...... It's too light to say thank you, and if you don't say it, you feel sorry for it......" Tian Youwei accompanied Mrs. Mu for a walk in the courtyard, and she was indescribably grateful.

Old Madam Mu patted her hand: "There is no need to say this, this is as it should be." ”

Old Madam Mu stopped, looked up at the sky, and said in a low voice: "The matter of the Loyal Monarch of the Eater, I taught the children of the family like this, the boss did not disappoint me, and to this day, I still think the same way." ”

"But ......" Tian Youwei wanted to say, the current "Jun" is no longer Yuansheng, but the one sitting on the dragon chair, and the Mu family does not need to continue to be loyal to Yuansheng.

"You're saying things are already different, aren't you?" Old Madam Mu's thin face showed a faint smile: "Things are indeed different, and people are different, but this is the unfulfilled wish of the eldest of my family, we have to end this wish for him, and in the future, when the family meets underground, they will be happy." ”

It's not so much a foolish loyalty as a belief.

Tian Youwei looked at the thin and strong old lady in front of her, and suddenly understood why the Mu family was like this.

Poetry and books are heirlooms, and the Mu family is a heirloom of faith.

That's why they follow the ancient etiquette, not luxury, hold weddings, don't feast guests, don't play music, so there will be people like Mu Zikuan who are not afraid of Ling Chi and scold thieves and martyrdom.

Therefore, you can maintain pride and respect anytime and anywhere.

"If this can be done, you will be my granddaughter-in-law in the future, and you will listen to me and abide by the rules of my family." Old Madam Mu said solemnly: "Can you do it?" ”

Tian Youwei knew that such a person would do what he said and could not be coaxed at will, so she stubbornly said: "I'll do my best." ”

Old Madam Mu didn't speak again, lowered her head and continued to walk in circles.

Tian Youwei followed her honestly, walking slowly round and round.

Old Madam Mu said coldly: "I heard that both of your legs are worn out by horsebacking? No scabs? ”

"Nope." Tian Youwei is actually still a little painful, but it is rare for the old lady to let her accompany her, so it is difficult to refuse.

"I think you better go back to sleep, you need to rest more, I don't want to pick up a patient halfway to take care of it."

Tian Youwei smiled once, and sure enough, she went back to rest.

Old Madam Mu looked at her back, let out a long sigh, frowned, and said in a low voice: "Second child, what are the chances of winning this matter?" ”

Second Master Mu replied not far from her, "Half and half." After all, the Queen Mother came back from the Five Kingdoms City, and she couldn't know what happened to the second son of Yuansheng. ”
