It's finally time to go back to the capital, although it's still summer, and the air inhaled into the nasal cavity is higher than the body temperature, but today is cloudy, there is no scorching sun overhead, and Mu Yuan doesn't feel so hot and unbearable.

After Mu Yuan and the county lieutenant Zeng Fang and the commander He Ming said goodbye, he and a small team of men and horses set off from the county government with the booty, joined the soldiers on standby at the south city gate, and then returned to Yunjin City together in the south.

Just like when they came, both sides of the road were full of people who came to see them off, and everyone cheered and watched Mu Yuan and his party go away.

The crowd was too crowded, Chen Xiao stood in the front row and looked at the soldiers walking in front of him, and suddenly felt that someone was pushing him hard in the back. Chen Xiao didn't stand firmly, and stumbled and threw down the box in front of him. A red cloth wrapped something rolled out of the box, and after a few rolls, the red cloth spread out to reveal a lump of black hair inside, and he curiously brushed off the black hair on it, so frightened that he screamed, yes, it's a human head!

He looked back to find out which bastard caused him to run into such an obscure thing, only to see a man with unusually three-dimensional eyes who looked at him and quickly wanted to squeeze out of the crowd and leave.

Chen Xiao got up and hurriedly chased after him and wanted to beat this bastard, but the crowd was too crowded, and the head of the person who had just rolled out also caused a lot of wind and waves in the crowd, and he soon lost his trace.

When Chen Xiao turned around and wanted to squeeze back into the crowd to see the excitement, he saw President Wang of the Northwest Business Alliance, holding the head and crying bitterly.

"Dong'er! Dong'er! How so! ”

Mu Yuan was at the front of the queue, and suddenly felt that the people around him were moving backwards. He looked back and saw that the back of the line had stopped, and the crowd was getting bigger and bigger, and he didn't know what had happened.

So he drove his horse back, but he saw Wang Ping sitting on the ground, holding a human head in his arms, and on the side was a red cloth scattered on the ground with the head of a horse thief.

"General Mu is the owner of my family, I have been looking for him for many days, but I didn't expect that today is forever! General Mu, you have to give me an explanation. Why is Dong'er's head here? ”

"You put it down, this is to bring the head of the horse thief back to the capital. You say this is Wang Dong? ”

"Horse thief? How could Dong'er be beheaded as a horse thief? ”

"I've seen Wang Dong, how can this person recognize Wang Dong's appearance if he is unkempt."

Wang Ping wiped his face seriously with his sleeves despite being dressed in brocade, and finally revealed his true face after a while.

Wang! Mu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, the shock was indescribable, and he almost wanted to fall from the horse. It's really Wang Dong! How can it be!

Mu Yuan trembled his hands, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to take out the heads of the other horse thieves, clean up their faces, let Wang Ping identify them one by one, and dismounted himself to stand beside Wang Ping.

"I only recognize three heads here, Dong'er has already set up his own chamber of commerce for many years, and I only occasionally take a picture of Dong'er's subordinates on weekdays, and I can't remember it well."

Mu Yuan knew that he had made a big mistake when he heard this, and he was ashamed in his heart and wanted to step forward to help Wang Ping, who was sitting on the ground, and apologize solemnly. But Wang Ping didn't appreciate it, and he scoffed at Mu Yuan's move.

Wang Ping has been looking for Wang Dong for the past few days, he doesn't think about tea and food, and he can't sleep day and night, and the originally rich president of the Northwest Business Alliance is so majestic, but now the whole person is quickly shriveling, and he is more than ten years old, and he has no intention of taking care of his appearance. Now that his hair is in a messy bun, and his face is full of stubble, he is holding Wang Dong's head and tearing and crying on the street, and others can't help but be moved.

"Mu Yuan, you acted so well in this scene, no wonder you told me that I couldn't find Dong'er, it turned out that Dong'er had already been killed by you!"

"President Wang, why did you say that?"

"I want to ask the emperor to comment on the little old man. I have lost my first son, but I didn't expect that now the old body has sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person twice, Mu Yuan, how cruel you are. A few days ago, you were pretending to be merciful and said that you would help me find Dong'er. I didn't expect you to be the real murderer of Dong'er. Dong'er just bumped into you in the barracks that day, but I didn't expect you to do this. also falsely accused Dong'er of being a horse thief, and it seems that Dong'er is right. You Mu Yuan is not a person who is rumored to be good and loyal, you are also thinking of the power of the government and the opposition. Now you have killed Dong'er, and you have killed good and risked merit. Inexplicably, the horse thieves in this trade route disappeared, and I don't think there were any horse thieves at all at the beginning, all of this is just an excuse for you Mu Yuan to ask for credit. My Dong'er's life is the stone step on your top!

God, if I hadn't recognized Dong'er, then you Mu Yuan would have been promoted to the rank of official when he returned to the capital this time, and such a vicious plan would have been realized unknowingly! And I'm still looking for my Dong'er! Your Majesty, you are really blinded by this courtier! ”

When the crowd of onlookers heard what Wang Ping said, there was a commotion, some people didn't believe that General Mu would do such a tragic thing, and some people saw Wang Ping crying blood and holding his son's corpse and crying bitterly, definitely not like he deliberately wronged Mu Yuan. The nest fire, which had been cut off for many days because of horse thieves, found an outlet, and someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "What bullshit is that General Dingyuan, it turned out to be a prison guard and a thief!" We couldn't transport goods for so long, and we killed so many people in the caravan! Phew! ”

I don't know who threw an egg at Mu Yuan first, and several people believed what Wang Ping said, sprinkled their anger on Mu Yuan, and began to throw things at Mu Yuan.

Mu Yuan didn't dodge, at this time he was so cold that he couldn't move, and he couldn't get out in shock, he felt that the so-called side horse thief was a net laid by someone in Xizhou from the beginning, and he got in defenselessly, it was really stupid.

After a while, he asked people to inform the county government of Lan Xiangcheng, brought shackles, and handcuffed himself, and soldiers came to stop him

"General!"

Mu Yuan waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to retreat,

"President Wang, the matter has come to this point, Mu Yuan voluntarily confessed, I am willing to be escorted back to the capital, and the emperor will give you an explanation."

"I, Mu Yuan, your tricks have been exposed by me, so don't pretend here. I want to enter the capital to sue the royal court, and I also ask all the villagers and elders to give me Wang Ping a witness here! ”
