Xiao Zhengtang is a seven-foot-old man, but he relied on the protection of others to leave a life, loyalty, failed to protect the lord, and watched those who dressed as eunuchs force Xiao He into a desperate situation and could not do anything; Righteousness, and he can't take care of his brothers, and his martial arts are too bad to be defeated and unable to resist after a few moves.

When he was sober, he recalled that scene, and his heart was already dead. Now that he heard that Mu Churan didn't seem to believe his words, he was even more indignant, and after a few words, he got up and rushed to the pillar of the imperial study, intending to hit his head and die.

If Zhang Delu hadn't stopped him, he would have really been splashed with blood on the spot.

Zhang Delu was the closest to the side, so he quickly stopped him, but Xiao Zheng was sad and angry in his heart, even if he was stopped, he was still eating the scales, and he didn't die in Mu Churan's eyes. broke free of Zhang Delu, but still bumped into it. However, it was Zhang Delu who stopped him, and his strength was reduced by a few points, and he hit the pillar and knocked himself to the ground, with some blood on his head, which was not too serious.

Mu Churan looked at this posture, frowned slightly, and raised his voice, "What are you doing here?" Can't I ask a few more questions? ”

Xiao Zheng ignored the injury on his head, bowed down again, and finally couldn't help it, tears fell, "The villain's brother and the villain entered the palace as a guard together, and now the brother is loyal and dutiful but has been poisoned, and the villain is uneasy in his heart, and he told His Majesty what he saw, but he was not believed by His Majesty, so he was angry for a while. Please also Your Majesty to be clear! ”

When Mu Churan heard him say this, he felt that he was indeed a man who valued love and righteousness, but his expression eased, "That's it, Xiao Zhangzi took him to the side to rest and give him some medicine." I'll give him to you to look at. ”

"Yes, the minion obeys." Zhang Delu hurriedly nodded and helped Xiao Zheng up.

Only then did Mu Churan set his eyes on Qinglian, "Qinglian, why is what you said different from what this guard said?" Which of you is true and which is false, can you tell for me? ”

Although Mu Churan's voice was not loud, the chill in his words made Qinglian feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and she was shivering with cold. If Qinglian is a bully on weekdays, it's okay, maybe she can really come up with something to say, but unfortunately she is not a person who is good at lying, and it is precisely because she has been behaving since she entered the palace, even if she is serving in the palace of the concubine, she is also diligent.

At the beginning, Mu Churan also took a fancy to her from the personnel records of the Internal Affairs Office, and she was honest and diligent and didn't say much, so she called a few times and asked her to serve Xiao He. But I don't want to be bribed by someone like this.

Qinglian knelt below, her body trembling like sifting chaff, and she stammered for a long time and couldn't say a complete sentence.

With a "snap", Mu Churan slapped on the table and said angrily, "Or do you think that I am a faint king, and whoever makes up a few sentences casually can be toyed with by you?" Isn't it? ”

This sentence added weight, and Qinglian was so frightened that she hurriedly kowtowed, and then hurriedly told the truth, "Your Majesty spares your life!" Your Majesty spares your life! Someone gave the slave and maid a hundred taels of silver, and told the slave and maid to come to the palace with those words under their backs. The slave and maid were unwilling, but they used the slave's mother and younger brother as a threat. Slaves and maids are in distress, please be gracious to Your Majesty! Spare the slave maid's life! ”

Mu Churan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly, "Who are they?" You recruit me one by one! ”

In the inn, after Xiao He had eaten and drunk enough, he wanted to leave the guest room and take a look outside. But as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw a person standing in the doorway, with his back to this side. The man turned his head and glanced at Xiao He quickly, didn't speak, turned his head again with a calm face, and stood up again.

Xiao He looked at him a little familiarly, and vaguely remembered that it seemed to be a guard beside Murong, named Liuzhao.

She retreated into the house, and with such a piece of wood in front of the door, who had the heart to go out for a walk. This Murong is too, she went out to have fun by herself, but she locked me in this hut, she muttered in her heart, and couldn't help kicking the table leg, but the kick hurt her foot.

After about half an hour, Xiao He heard someone talking softly at the door, and then the door was pushed open.

Murong came back, Xiao He leaned on the bed, squinting at him, "You don't know how to knock on the door when you come in, there is no courtesy at all." After Murong entered the room, he chose a random place to sit down, and smiled softly, "Lord Xiao, this is my own room, do I still need to knock on the door to enter my own room?" What the reason. ”

Well said, Xiao He was speechless, so he had to divert the topic, "You sent Brother Shulie back?" ”

"You said to send it back? Does it refer to his room, or does it refer to Otsuki? If it's the latter, it's going to take a few days. Murong didn't seem to intend to hide it from her, and said it a little seriously and casually, as if this was not a confidential matter at all.

Xiao He became interested, and simply sat up straight, "I don't know Mr. Murong, this time he disguised himself as a popular candidate for the future prince of Da Yue, what kind of business did he do in Da Yin?" Murong glanced at her, raised his hand and turned out the teacup on the table, poured a cup of tea for himself, took a sip, and then turned back to Xiao He, "Naturally, there is a profitable deal." ”

Xiao He walked to the table in a few steps, sat down at the bottom of him, and rested his arms on the table, "Tell me about it." ”

Murong was just about to open his mouth, but Xiao He had a naughty heart, stretched out his palm, and stopped in mid-air, "Don't worry, let me guess it myself first, you can see if I guess correctly." ”

She rolled her eyes and showed a charming smile as cunning as a fox, and Murong was stunned, "I guess, it's related to the treasure, right?" I asked you the location of the key before, and you disappeared regardless of the whole thing, and I can't think of anything else that can stop you. ”

Although Murong didn't answer, the smile that couldn't be hidden at the corner of his mouth had betrayed his answer.

can say that the prince of a country joins forces, in addition to huge benefits, Xiao He can't think of anything else. Murong Yijie Buyi, no official position, no real power in hand, can negotiate with his hands, only he sent himself into the palace several times to investigate.

When Mu Yunjing fled from Dayin, he was only a few years old, and the valuables must have been carried by the people around him, according to him, she was an old woman. In the end, the related things were not in his hands, whether they were lost or collected by someone with a heart, even he couldn't tell.

And this treasure of the former dynasty that the former prince was responsible for guarding is the thing that can buy people's hearts the most.

Although Xiao He didn't know how many treasures there were and how much they were worth, it must be a lot to make Murong bet on the treasure as the starting force for the rebellion.

If this treasure is revealed, is it time for war?

Xiao He couldn't help but ask, "It's all dug up?" ”

Murong laughed out loud, as if Xiao He had asked an extremely stupid question, "How can it be so simple, otherwise Ge Shulie wouldn't have taken this trip in person." Xiao He suddenly, "You took him to see the treasure?" ”

Murong nodded, stretched out his hand and scraped Xiao He's cheek, "You look cute when you're stupid, and even more cute when you're smart." ”

Xiao He took a sip and rubbed desperately where his fingers had touched, as if he had rubbed some dirty place. Murong didn't mind, so he changed the topic and asked her, "I haven't been gone for a long time, why are you so miserable?" If you weren't lucky enough to run into my people, you would have been transported to the outside of Longxi Pass. ”

Xiao Hecai closed his face and said seriously, "This matter is also strange, I originally thought it was just the Queen Mother framing her, but I didn't want her to collude with the people in Saibei." At first, I thought it was Dado, but this style doesn't look like him. I don't have a clue for the time being, so why don't you help me think about it. ”

When Murong heard her say this, he took another teacup out, poured the tea, and pushed it in front of her, "It's useless to think so much, anyway, now that your mission in the palace has been completed, it's better to stay by my side." ”

Xiao He was holding the teacup and was about to bring it to his mouth, when he heard his words, his eyebrows raised, "What are you talking about?" Could it be that I entered the palace to do an errand for you? I still have ......."

"I'll help you remember that little bit of you, and I will always ask you to take revenge with your own hands. When did I lie to you? Murong's expression seemed to be smiling, which made Xiao He a little scared. She was afraid of nothing else, but the imminent battle for the throne.

The topic became heavy, Xiao He looked at him, trying not to think about the distant picture, "More than that, this time I was always framed by someone, and what I haven't done is always unhappy when it hangs on me." Who would like the taste of being wronged. I'm still going back, if nothing else, at least to clear my name as a former scholar! ”

"You are an official, and you are addicted to being an official." Murong smiled.

Xiao He fed a sip of tea, the tea in this small shop was bitter and astringent, I don't know what year it was old tea, and I took it out and dealt with it casually. She almost didn't squirt, and she didn't know how Murong drank it with relish, so she drank two glasses.

"What official addiction? No matter how I say that official position, I have earned it by real talent and learning, and it is not from the wind. Why should someone frame and smear me, this is a matter of mine reputation! Xiao He was more serious, with a sense of stubbornness.

Murong sighed, "I can't leave right now, send someone to send you back, I'm not at ease." You can stay here with peace of mind and stay with me for some time, and it will also be good for you. The matter of the imperial capital, since you are innocent, there will naturally be someone to clear your name. Worry about what. ”

He said it easily, Xiao He wrinkled his brows and glared at him, "It's none of your business, of course you don't have to worry." Besides, I'm here, what's in it for you? Do I ask you for favors? I don't think I'll be able to live long. The last sentence was full of sarcasm, but Murong didn't care, but said indifferently, "The poison on your body, and the injury, don't it hurt?" Forgot to clean up? ”
