Chapter 136: Behind Bars

"What Master Hou doesn't want Chongning to know, how can Chongning know?"

Guangping Hou smiled and pointed at Xie Chongning, "Lord Xie can do things by the emperor's side, naturally he has his own ability, but no matter how powerful you are, you have to understand that there are people outside this person, and there is a truth outside the sky." ”

"Then Master Hou is this outsider?" Xie Chongning's face was still the same, and he tasted the wine in his cup indifferently.

Mu Yu's eyes darkened a little, they found that the Marquis of Guangping was abnormal, and few people knew about it, if the Marquis of Guangping was afraid that they would sue the emperor about this matter and have a black hand behind it, then she could understand it.

But now at the banquet, the Marquis of Guangping is so confident, it's too arbitrary, right?

"Naturally, I don't have that ability." Guangping Hou patted his thigh, "Lord Xie is sometimes too rigid to do things for the emperor, and there are naturally more people who offend, and now that such an accident has happened, I really feel sorry for you, Lord Xie." ”

Listening to the words of Guangping Hou, it seems that someone told him something to make him so sure.

"What Hou Ye said is very reasonable, our family adults did things before, and they did things a little rigidly, and they also offended many adults because of this, but if Hou Ye doesn't mind, why don't you choose to cooperate with us?"

Mu Yu tugged at the corner of Xie Chongning's clothes and asked him to follow his words.

"Mrs. Xie is afraid that I don't know, the letter you sent to the capital for help has been intercepted by me, and now it is in my hands. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have believed what Madame said. ”

After that, Guangping Hou took out a roll of letter paper from his cuff, which was exactly the letter they were going to hand over to Qin Xu to ask for reinforcements, but when did they catch the carrier pigeon?

The carrier pigeon has been flying out for two days, this Guangping Hou is not a person who can hide things, he should have learned about this letter today, so who is it, intercepted the carrier pigeon, handed it to him?

Mu Yu looked at the letter in the hand of the Marquis of Guangping and was speechless.

"If Lord Xie really wants to cooperate with me, why did he write a letter to the King of Anping?" Guangping Hou smiled sarcastically, "But I really thank you for this letter, I never expected that Lord Xie, who is dedicated to doing things for the emperor, has a lot to do with the king of Anping." ”

The reason why Xie Chongning sent a letter to Qin Xu was just that the DPRK and the central government could send troops to reinforce them because Qin Xu could do it, but under the interpretation of outsiders, this did have an ulterior meaning.

Today, when the ministers are in trouble, they do not ask for help from the emperor, but ask for help from a county king, if this matter enters the ears of the emperor, no matter who it is, it is not good-looking.

What's more, the strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake, and now it is in the territory of the Marquis of Guangping, and the secret letter of the Marquis of Guangping was intercepted by him, for the sake of today's plan, he can only drag the Marquis of Guangping first.

Xie Chongning's face did not change, as if it was not them who were in prison, "Master Hou deceived his superiors and subordinates, and took down us at the risk of bullying the king, it seems that the current epidemic in Yancheng is even more serious than we imagined." ”

Mu Yao was bitter at this time, and he didn't know what Xie Chongning thought, wouldn't saying this now force the Marquis of Guangping to kill him!

But the people around her looked like they were all in the chest, and she was even more puzzled.

"We are in the hands of Hou Ye, and it should be the fish and meat in your hands, but since Hou Ye has come to this point, don't be afraid of the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches."

Guangping Hou's eyes gradually showed murderous intent at this time, and he only thought that the epidemic in Yancheng must not be discovered, otherwise everything he did would be in vain.

"Someone's coming!"

"Lord Hou......"

Before Guangping Hou's voice fell, the housekeeper beside him glanced at Xie Chongning and the others a few times, and said, "Master Hou, the little one has a few words, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

"Say, spit."

Guangping Hou was not as calm as he seemed on the surface, although the letter was intercepted, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no accidents.

"Master Hou, you are now in Yancheng, a place where birds don't, and you are restricted everywhere, if you want to go back to the capital, you have to rely on Lord Sun's help, I'm afraid that Lord Sun doesn't seem to have this intention."

Seeing that Guangping Hou frowned, the housekeeper seemed to have thought of this, and then said: "Xie Chongning and the others have always been at odds with Lord Sun, except for Xie Chongning, it will be beneficial to Lord Sun, so why don't you take this opportunity to ...... it?" ”

Xie Chongning looked at the housekeeper beside Guangping Hou, chuckled, and stopped talking.

Mu Yu's eyes lit up, this housekeeper was so smart? Doesn't that help them?

Without waiting for Mu Yu to speak, the Marquis of Guangping waved his hand and said, "Come on, send Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie to the wing room to rest!" ”

This is house arrest in disguise, Mu Yao swallowed back his words, and sighed in his heart, the emperor is far away, even if the Marquis of Guangping kills people and kills people, if you want to find out the truth, it is not a matter of a moment and a half, why would the Marquis of Guangping stop?

The letter was intercepted, and who leaked the news?

Xie Chongning didn't seem to be bothered by these questions, and followed the people of Guangping Hou all the way to the wing room, without saying a word.

"Mrs. Xie," the butler said, "Lord Xie is upright and doesn't know how to be flexible, but I see that you are a smart person and should know how to do it." ”

Mu Yao slandered in her heart, this housekeeper looked honest, and he didn't expect that it was still the think tank of the Marquis of Guangping, and he could think of taking her route.

"Adults do things, I'm a weak woman who speaks softly, I'm afraid it's ......" Mu Yao's face showed a look of embarrassment, and then said, "However, what the housekeeper said is also reasonable, I will do my best, after all, it is a matter of my life." ”

Hearing this, the housekeeper smiled at Mu Yu, and his smile was full of knowledge, and then he left satisfied.

"My lord, what can you do?"

Mu Yao looked around, the whole room had been surrounded by water, since the Marquis of Guangping did not start, he must have wanted to use them to gain benefits, if he wanted to escape smoothly, it would not be easy.

"Wait."

Xie Chongning only said a word, and he didn't know what to do, and then looked at Wuchen, he still looked indifferent.

It seems that only she is blindly worried, Mu Yao shook her head, and simply didn't want to think about it, I don't know why, she has a blind trust in Xie Chongning.

She always felt that even this embarrassing situation couldn't trap Xie Chongning.

The night was as dark as ink.

Xie Chongning stood up, and Mu Yao also stood up, "My lord, where are you going?" ”

"The guards of the Marquis of Guangping change shifts every two hours, and there will be a gap of a quarter of an hour in between." Xie Chongning explained.

"Yao'er, you are waiting here for my news."

Seeing that Xie Chongning was about to leave, Mu Yao grabbed his sleeve and said, "Take me with you." ”

A quarter of an hour's time is very limited, and one more person means more certainty.

Xie Chongning saw that Mu Yao insisted on going, so he had no choice but to nod and hold Mu Yao's hand.

"I'm going too!"

Zhang Wei heard the movement and ran over, for fear that others would not know what they were going to do.

"Miss Zhang, you and I should still wait here," Wuchen stopped in front of Zhang Wei, "It's not easy to do things when there are many people, but it has become a burden to Master Xie." ”

Xie Chongning didn't look back, he had already pulled Mu Yao away, and Zhang Wei had no choice but to give up, but he turned his back to them and gritted his teeth, and left angrily.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

"The fourth child has always been grinding, and he will be here in a while, let's go first!"

Xie Chongning and Mu Yao hid behind the tree, listening to the noise of the people in front of them, it seemed that the shift change had not arrived, and they left early, God really helped them.

"Let's go!"

A few people scolded and walked forward, and after listening to no movement, Xie Chongning and Mu Yao walked out.

"What now?"

"Go out of the house and find Xie Yu."

If he finds Xie Yu, he will have a way to send the news to the capital, and as long as he drags the Marquis of Guangping, everything will still have a chance.

Xie Yu? Yes, Xie Yu was doing business in the south, and now finding him would be a life-saving solution.

Mu Yao nodded, but before the words fell, he heard a sound of footsteps in the distance.

Presumably, the shift change people arrived early, but they hadn't opened the house yet, so the news couldn't be delivered, and when the stalemate was in place, there was a whistling sound outside the door wall.

"It's me, Ah Yuan."

"Who!" Ah Yuan's voice was a little louder, and the people in the distance heard the movement and walked straight over.

Mu Yao was pleasantly surprised, it was that child, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she pulled out the hairpin on her head and cut a wound on the palm of her hand.

dipped his fingers in blood, wrote down the words "Yancheng is in danger, come quickly" and threw it out.

Xie Chongning didn't have time to move at all, so he was pulled back to the courtyard by Mu Yao

"How?"

Zhang Wei just took a step forward, and when she saw Xie Chongning's cold face, she didn't dare to speak, but stood aside in a muffled voice.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Wuchen noticed the wound on Mu Yao's hand, which was still dripping blood.

"I, I'm fine...... Mu Yao raised his hand, wanting to smile, but found that everyone had gloomy faces, so he had to give up, "The situation was critical at the time, and I only thought of this way." ”

Wuchen looked disapproving, but he didn't say anything about the injured people, and he didn't say more.

"Shhh

Mu Yao's tears of pain were about to fall, and she couldn't help but say angrily: "What are you doing!" ”

Hearing this, Xie Chongning took a beating on his hand, the bandaged strip of cloth was crooked, and he said coldly: "It doesn't hurt and doesn't have a long memory." ”

It's just to pass on a message to the outside world, if you can't do it today, there will be tomorrow, why do you need to practice your body, not to mention, isn't there still him!

"My lord, no matter what, I don't have merit, but I also have hard work, right? Why are you so angry? ”

Mu Yao only felt aggrieved, although he was a little impulsive, but the people of Guangping Hou were already alert, and it was almost impossible to have another chance in the future.

Wuchen looked at the awkward appearance of the two people, and sighed slightly, and others couldn't persuade them about their feelings.

"There will be no next time."

Xie Chongning looked at Mu Yao's aggrieved appearance, but his heart softened, "This kind of thing will be done by me in the future." ”
