Chapter 20: To Wushan

After listening to Su Mujiu's analysis, the manager felt that what he said was reasonable, and nodded frequently.

Su Mujiu saw that this person had almost been fooled, she stretched out her hand and patted him on the shoulder, showing a smile, "The carriage, I'll leave it to you, I'm optimistic about you~"

The manager touched his somewhat shriveled pockets, and wanted to say something to refuse, but it was the prince standing in front of him, and this matter was caused by him, so he still sighed, "Lord, you wait." ”

Then the steward walked towards the city.

Su Mujiu's fingertips touched her chin, and her brows furrowed slightly.

Why does the back of this steward look so gloomy?

Su Mujiu waited on the edge of the city wall to estimate the time of a cup of tea, and saw the steward leading a dilapidated carriage in her direction.

Su Mujiu rubbed her eyes, she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

It seems that the wheels are not very strong, the roof of the car has been broken, and some straw has been piled on it, and the windows on both sides of the car are empty, but fortunately this is summer, if it is winter, the person who sits in it is afraid that he will be frozen to death by this cool breeze.

The most excessive thing is the horses in front of this carriage.

His hair had turned gray, and he walked with a limp, looking sick.

Can this thing be called a carriage too?

Can this horse really run?

When Su Mujiu was shocked, the steward had already led the carriage to her.

He respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Su Mujiu, "Lord Wang, please get in the carriage, let's set off immediately and go to Wushan." ”

“…… Are you sure the carriage is faster than we can walk, steward? Su Mujiu was deeply suspicious, she felt that this manager was like a frolic.

The manager's brows have been wrinkled into eight-figure eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth are slightly torn apart, "Lord Wang, I have all the belongings on my body, and I talked to the boss all the time, so I got a carriage, otherwise my price, at most, I will change a donkey......"

The manager doesn't want to be so shabby, but he can't get any oil and water from this position, and the official position is not big, and he is the only one in the family who is receiving the money, and the rest have to be supported by him alone.

To be able to have this money has been saved by him through frugality.

Su Mujiu also saw the embarrassment of the manager, and naturally he couldn't make it difficult for others.

She jumped into the carriage and said to the steward, "Let's go." ”

"Okay~" The steward raised the long whip in his hand and hit the horse's buttocks.

Subsequently—

Su Mujiu saw a carriage speeding by.

Immediately after the second and third...... One by one, they crossed in front of Su Mujiu's eyes.

Su Mujiu watched as the carriages were getting farther and farther away from them, and the speed of their carriages was at most faster than the pace of ordinary people.

But compared with the speed of Su Mujiu's martial arts practitioners, it was not half a star and a half.

Su Mujiu held her forehead, she hadn't walked far out of this imperial city, and she felt that this matter was very tricky.

"Anyway, steward." Su Mujiu was also embarrassed to hold on to this question, she suddenly opened her mouth and broke the deadlock.

"Yes." The manager responded tremblingly, he was afraid that the prince would blame him for running too slow and delaying his trip.

"I've wanted to ask you just now, how do you disguise yourself like this, although you and I were at odds at the previous banquet, but it wasn't enough to hide people's eyes and ears to do this."

Su Mujiu looked at the tattered appearance of the steward, and she asked from the bottom of her heart.

The manager listened to Su Mujiu's words, and his face was embarrassed, "Lord, it's not that I did it on purpose, but because I don't have a few decent clothes in my family, and the official uniforms are the same distribution......"

"And what about this unkempt dirt?" Su Mujiu pointed to the messy hair of the steward and asked.

"It's because ...... I was dressed too shabby, and I was afraid that my colleagues would recognize me, so I naturally did it on purpose...... Lord Wang, I really didn't disrespect you, if it was...... If you find it an eyesore...... I...... I. ”

The more the manager spoke, the more nervous he became, his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and he anxiously wanted to turn his head and explain to Su Mujiu.

Su Mujiu immediately stopped it, and hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I don't blame you, concentrate on driving the carriage." ”

"Yes!" The steward said, working harder to drive the carriage.

And Su Mujiu decided not to speak for the time being.

estimated that the manager was afraid of her identity, and he was sincerely afraid of anything.

She'd better shut up and talk about anything else when she got to her destination.

Su Mujiu was so quiet, the manager was really in a much better mood, and he concentrated on driving the carriage in the direction of Nawu Mountain.

Finally, after a night of wind and rain, the two of them finally arrived at the foot of Wushan.

Su Mujiu tied the horse to a completely burned tree trunk, and she patted the horse's head, "I didn't expect you to look weak, I didn't expect that you have extremely strong endurance, and some ordinary horses have just rested for a long time in the middle." ”

"Lord Wang, I just went to Wushan to see it all around, and the villages around here have been emptied." The steward stumbled over, and he said breathlessly.

"Is this wildfire still raging?" Su Mujiu's eyes were clear, and she looked at Wushan, which was completely different in the blink of an eye, and her voice was a little heavy.

"I don't see the open flame anymore, I'm afraid it's gone." The steward replied respectfully.

I can't think of it, I can't think of it.

I haven't seen it for a while, and this Wushan has gone from being a vibrant forest to a purgatory.

The mastermind behind this scene, how vicious should his mind be, to be able to think of this arson.

"Let's go, let's go to the mountains and have a look." Su Mujiu's lips opened slightly, and said to the manager.

As long as it is something that has been done, it will inevitably leave traces.

Even if these people want to burn everything, they are bound to leave a little clue.

"Okay." The manager's eyes were firm, and he obediently kept up with Su Mujiu's pace.

Here, countless of his men were buried, and now he saw the devastation, and his heart ached.

Su Mujiu and the steward walked along a path in the direction of the mountain, along which were trees scorched by tongues of fire, as well as many animal corpses that could not be thrown.

Every scene made her stunned.

When she came, she just held the suspicion that she had to clear herself and save the palace from danger.

But now, she has a little more thought.

She wants to get justice for those who have passed away and catch the real culprit!!

Su Mujiu's eyes didn't let go of every place, she stopped and stopped, and she didn't want to miss any clues.
