Chapter 187: Joining forces

What is a clever plan...... It was Xie Chongning who blocked Mu Yi on the way to get off his post!

Xie Chongning wore a false beard and glanced at Mu Yi on the horse.

Mu Yi glanced at the strange man in front of him cursoryly, and he didn't notice anything unusual at first, but as soon as the horse took half a step, he suddenly grabbed the reins and stopped suddenly.

"You guys go first, I suddenly remembered that there was still something to do, so I won't be with you." Mu Yi jumped off the horse, handed the reins to the people around him, and walked a long way with them on his back.

After seeing everyone leave, Mu Yi's gaze fell back on Xie Chongning's body again, "Why are you here!" What about the rumors? ”

"Big brother comes with me." Xie Chongning replied from afar, walking ahead and leading the way.

The two are far apart, and if they are outsiders, they can't see the relationship between the two of them.

Mu Yi followed Xie Chongning all the way to their current residence, and before Xie Chongning could give up half of his body, he took the lead and walked in quickly, "Rumors? Rumors are available? ”

"Big brother?" Mu Yu poked half of his head out of the house and looked at the courtyard suspiciously. "It's really big brother, why are you here?"

"Rumors! You're back! Mu Yi rushed into the room excitedly, pulled Mu Yu to check left and right, and frowned with dissatisfaction, "Yu'er, why have you lost weight?" ”

Or the original formula, or the original big brother, Mu Yu smiled helplessly, "Big brother, do you want to see me once, and I will gain weight once?" Won't I have to be fat in the future to be satisfied? ”

"Not necessarily. When did you come back, and why didn't you inform your eldest brother? Mu Yi knew the situation of his sister and Xie Chongning, and when the two returned to the capital, he was happy, but more worried.

"It's only been three days since I arrived." Mu Yu replied, "Won't I inform my eldest brother when I come back?" ”

"Does anyone else know your whereabouts? Who else did you tell but me? ”

Xie Chongning walked behind and followed, ripped off the beard that was sticking to his face, and returned to his cold appearance, "Big brother, don't worry, we only came back with the emperor's permission." ”

"Your Majesty?" Mu Yi was stunned, and then thought of the relationship between Xie Chongning and the current emperor when the former emperor was alive, and he could also figure it out, "Yu'er, can you tell your father about your return?" ”

When she saw Mu Yu shaking her head, Mu Yi was completely relieved, "Yes, don't let your father know about your return." ”

Mu Yu pursed his lips, it seems that the eldest brother also knows a thing or two about what he did to his father, "Big brother, I came back this time just for my father." ”

Hearing this, Mu Yi's face suddenly changed, and he said with a warning in a serious manner, "This is the matter of the Luanping Marquis Mansion, since you have married Xie Chongning, from now on, this matter of the Luanping Marquis Mansion will have nothing to do with you." ”

Listening to Mu Yi's warning, Mu Yu only felt kind, and couldn't help laughing, "Could it be that this is really a married daughter, spilled water?" Big brother doesn't want me as a sister? ”

"Rumors, don't be willful!" In this matter, there was no room for negotiation at all, Mu Yi looked at Xie Chongning reproachfully, "The rumor is willful, are you also stupid?" ”

Xie Chongning did not answer.

"What? Are you going to make a big mistake with the Luanping Marquis Mansion? ”

"Since I found my eldest brother today, I naturally want to save the Luanping Marquis Mansion from the Jedi."

Mu Yi sneered, "What you said is easy, how to save it?" "That's a sin of treason.

"Blame for the guilt."

Mu Yi frowned, and carefully thought about the meaning of what Xie Chongning said, "Turning the merit into a crime, do you mean, let me help the emperor and deal with my father?" ”

Of course, he knew that what his father was doing was wrong, but in any case, it was a blood relative, how could he easily give it up?

Xie Chongning didn't have a positive answer, "If the eldest brother can find other methods, it will naturally be the best." ”

If it was that easy, Mu Yi would not have made any moves so far. "Tell me, what kind of merit do you need me to make if you say that you will make merit for sin?"

"Big brother." Mu Yu rushed ahead of Xie Chongning and said first, "Big brother, do you know that when the emperor was alive, my father got the tiger talisman of the city guard?" ”

Mu Yi nodded and said, "I do know about the Tiger Talisman, but my father may not be able to hand over the Tiger Talisman to me." ”

Father Xu knew his thoughts, and the relationship between their father and son was very stiff during this time, neither of them would take the initiative to talk to each other, and they never mentioned political affairs.

"If the emperor wants to get back the tiger talisman without spending a single soldier, only you can do it." Mu Yu also thought of this layer.

The eldest brother is an upright person, although he has no intention of doing the right thing, but he will never participate in the rebellion, if his father intends to mention this matter to him, it is estimated that the eldest brother and his father would have broken up a long time ago.

However, in the Luanping Marquis Mansion, there has never been a rumor of the previous abnormality between the eldest brother and the father, and the two should have always been peaceful, and the only possibility is that the father has never asked the eldest brother to participate in his plan.

Mu Yi lowered her head slightly and touched Mu Yu's smooth black hair, "A few days ago, I was still worried, if something happened to the Luanping Hou Mansion, how would I, the eldest brother, explain to my rumor." ”

For some reason, Mu Yu listened to what his eldest brother said, and began to choke. "Big brother, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have forced you to make such a choice."

Mu Yi looked at her sister with red eyes at a loss, and a pair of rough hands gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "It's not your fault, what are you sorry for, I'm just sighing, it's good that my sister has grown up, and I, as an elder brother, don't have to rack my brains to think about how to explain to my sister." ”

"Big brother, if you don't want to be ......" Mu Yu bit his lower lip and swallowed back the second half of his sentence, the eldest brother naturally didn't want to, but if the eldest brother didn't cheat the tiger talisman in his father's hand, then the entire Luanping Marquis Mansion would be affected.

"Don't worry, my brother will do his best to protect the Luanping Marquis Mansion." He patted his sister's head and turned to look at Xie Chongning, "I am also willing to believe you, no matter what happens to the Luanping Marquis Mansion, promise me that you will protect the rumors thoroughly." ”

Xie Chongning nodded slightly at Mu Yi, "Leave it to me." ”

Just three words, weighing as much as a thousand catties.

"I didn't expect that in the end, I let my eldest brother be a villain." Mu Yu sat down decadently, and his heart was not relaxed because Mu Yi promised to return the tiger talisman, but had mixed tastes.

Xie Chongning glanced at her, stood beside her, and comforted her softly, "You and your eldest brother, no one is evil, the real fault is your father." ”

"I categorically didn't expect that my father would come to this point, is there really no room for recovery? Why did my father work with the Eagles? ”

Xie Chongning squirmed his thin lips twice when he wanted to speak, and finally said nothing.

In order not to reveal his identity, Mu Yu has never left this mansion since Mu Cheng came back, Xie Chongning saw that she was dull, so he specially found a veil for her, "Let's go out for a walk today." ”

Mu Yu held the veil in his hand and didn't put it on for a long time, "Isn't this too conspicuous?" What if it is recognized? ”

"It's okay, just go out for a walk." Xie Chongning took the veil in her hand and helped her put it on.

"One with a full beard and the other with a veil, how can such a combination not be remarkable." Mu Yu is still a little uneasy.

As a result, when she turned to look at Xie Chongning, she did find that Xie Chongning was not wearing a fake beard, but holding a black mask in his hand, which was pitch black, revealing only a pair of eyes.

"It's okay to be eye-catching, we're blocking it tightly." Xie Chongning said with a smile.

Mu Yu stared at the dark mask on his face for a long time, how could she feel that this mask was so familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere?

"Why do you keep staring at me?" Although Mu Yu wore a veil, how could Xie Chongning not feel that stunned gaze.

"I think your mask is very familiar."

Xie Chongning smiled deeply and asked magnetically, "Really?" Where has Madame seen it? ”

Mu Yu frowned, "This mask is indeed familiar...... but who is it?" On what occasions have such an all-black mask been worn?

"Even if I did, it was a long time ago." Xie Chongning helped her reminisce.

Mu Yu's eyes widened suddenly, "Gambling house!" I remembered that I had seen this mask in the gambling house before. She suddenly leaned in and took a closer look at the dark mask.

Confirmed again and again, yes, at that time, she and her eldest brother deliberately chose the gambling house in order to trap Mu Liangxuan, and the owner of the gambling house at that time also came forward to preside over "justice" for them.

The man was dressed in black, and even on his hands, he was wearing black gloves, so he couldn't tell who it was.

"It wouldn't be you at the gambling house at that time, would you?" Mu Yu gradually connected Xie Chongning with the owner of the gambling house through the mask, although the same mask could not prove anything, but she remembered.

At that time, Xie Chongning was a person who could control the gambling house at will, and he also deceived himself, "Where are you collecting protection money?" Lie to me! ”

Xie Chongning's eyes showed a hint of innocence, "I sued you, that's my side business." ”

Mu Yu blinked her eyes twice, recalling what Xie Chongning said to herself at that time, she took the token Xie Chongning gave her, and indeed only answered the word "side business".

As for the collection of protection money, it is completely made up by my own brain...... I don't want it to be a misunderstanding.

She laughed dryly twice, "It seems that I misunderstood, didn't I say go to the street?" It's going to be dark if we don't go again! Without waiting for Xie Chongning's response, she quickly walked in front.

Xie Chongning looked at her back and smiled dotingly, and followed.

Although the mask and veil were eye-catching, passers-by glanced at them, and no one paid attention to them, and walked over.

A few months later, when he returned to the capital, Mu Yu looked at the crowded streets and chuckled, "Is it the capital, or the original appearance." ”
