In midsummer July, the yellow fruit orchid in the mother's courtyard bloomed warmly, the sweet fragrance of flowers in the garden, and the noisy cicada chirping, so that Mu Qingmo and Mu Qingge, who were walking in the shade of the courtyard in the afternoon, were a little ape-like.

Qingge, his waist straightened. Qingmo, squat down a little more. ”

"Yes." The siblings responded in unison, exchanged glances, and stuck out their tongues. I thought that my mother was sitting in the gazebo, leisurely enjoying the maid fanning and eating cold melon, and her attention was no longer on herself. I didn't expect that my mother would be able to notice that I was lazy when I made a slight move.

"Don't think I don't know what you two little bandits are thinking, I can tell you that yesterday the emperor received a report from your father that the horse thieves have been pacified, and now they are on their way back to the capital. If you don't practice martial arts well and make my mother unhappy, think about how your father will clean you up when he comes back. ”

Hearing that their father was about to come back, the sister and brother quickly straightened their posture and looked straight ahead with serious faces. Mu Qingmo rolled his eyes inwardly, how majestic his father was on weekdays, why was he like a soft-footed shrimp in front of his mother, except for nodding his head and echoing what his mother said, he would do nothing. Being so strict with himself and Qingge's academic homework and martial arts practice, I really don't know if I and Qingge are raised.

"Madame, Madame, no"

"Butler, why are you in such a hurry?" Wen Yuze in the pavilion asked unhurriedly, and there was some dissatisfaction in his words that the housekeeper disturbed his leisure.

"Madam, a team of officials from outside has surrounded our general's mansion and said yes. Say yes. ”

"But why, it's quick."

"It is said that the general has been captured this time to suppress the bandits, kill the good and take the merits, and everyone in the general's mansion will wait for the saint to fall together after escorting the general back to the capital."

"Impossible! Yuanjun would never do such a thing that would ruin his conscience. Let's find out what the hell is going on. Wen Yuze stood up from the pavilion violently, walked to the courtyard and anxiously waited for the housekeeper to reply, and the Mu Qingmo and Mu Qingge sisters and brothers on the side also quickly stood up, came to their mother's side, and waited with her.

The butler took the silver and purse and went to investigate again, and hurried back in the middle of the morning to tell him.

"The general went to Dingdi Biansai this time, and he was supposed to kill the horse thief, but the general killed the young owner of the Northwest Business League and acted as a horse thief, and the human and material evidence was there. The president of the Northwest Business Alliance saw with his own eyes that his son's head was being sent to the national capital as a trophy, and said that the horse thief rebellion was planned by the general, and there were no bandits in the border area. ”

"What! Killing good and risking merit? Does Yuanjun have a defense? ”

"General. . . The general did not deny it, and shackled himself on the spot, and is now on the way back to the capital. Wen Yuze suddenly felt that the air around him was humid and stuffy, and he was a little out of breath, his limbs were weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

Seeing that her mother couldn't stand, Mu Qingmo and Mu Qingge hurriedly supported her and carefully helped her to the soft couch in the room to sit down.

What a loyal and upright person my father was, how could words like killing good and taking meritorious deeds be associated with my father.

"Mother, there must have been a misunderstanding during this time, how could my father do such a thing!" Mu Qingmo couldn't accept what the housekeeper said at all, and the mood that he had been looking forward to his father's victory was shattered by shock and panic.

"Mother, when Daddy comes back, we'll ask Daddy." Mu Qingge saw that her mother's face was pale, her expression was at a loss, and she cried out in distress.

"Yes, yes, wait until you see Yuanjun and ask him what happened. County Lord, let me go into the palace to meet Concubine Shu, I will go to beg Concubine Shu, beg her to let the emperor redress the grievances of Yuanjun, Yuanjun is definitely not a person who kills good and risked merit. ”

Saying that, Wen Yuze, with the support of his children, went to change into palace clothes and wanted to enter the palace concubine, but the official at the door stopped him, saying that he was ordered to guard, and everyone in the general's mansion was not allowed to leave half a step.

Wen Yuze begged so much that he had no choice but to return to the house, wrote a letter, and stuffed a silver purse into the official messenger's hand and asked the official messenger to transfer it on his behalf.

Returning to his room and changing into palace clothes, Wen Yuze felt a little tired. So he went to the maid and lay down on the paralyzed himself, wanting to rest for a while, but he lost consciousness after a while.

"Sister, you didn't go back last night. This is no better than Dijon, our status is special, and the slightest carelessness will affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries. ”

"I... I went to the bell tower to see the night view. ”

"Night view? You went alone? ”

"Of course, I don't know anyone else in Dingtao."

Wen Yuze was a little flustered in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm and stared at Wen Yu's eyes, because she knew that as long as she looked directly at her brother firmly, her brother would not be suspicious.

"Don't do it next time, the girl's family didn't return all night, what kind of system. I haven't settled accounts with you about you disguising yourself as a man and infiltrating the mission. ”

"Oh, brother, Yu Ze has long known that he was wrong." Wen Yuze's eyes widened, and he deliberately looked at Wen Yu with a pitiful expression, and then gently shook his brother's arm.

Wen Yu is helpless, his sister has been spoiled excessively since she was a child, and she can only be treated as an elder brother every time she gets into trouble. My sister is smart and lovely, so how can I bear to be angry with her.

"By the way, Emperor Dingtao will set up a banquet for the embassy tonight, and you have to go together."

Sure enough, my brother is really fooled. Banquet? I don't know if he will be there.

"Brother, I want to go too."

"If you want to go, you can rest quickly, and in the evening, wear men's clothes and go to the palace with me for a banquet."
