Chapter 160: The First Clues

Mu Qinghan went and returned, and everyone was laughing endlessly.

"Wing King, Princess Wing doesn't worry about you messing around outside, so she called home first to go to the family law and then released it?" Chu Jin was open-mouthed, poured a full glass of wine and handed it over, "You drink three glasses first, and then give us a few to see what kind of family law Princess Yi has done to you." ”

Mu Qinghan didn't shirk either, pursed his lips and smiled and took the cup to drink three times in a row. His eyes swept over Qin Yan and Jing Liang in turn, and finally landed on Qi Yan. The three of them nodded imperceptibly before he sat down.

After a while, someone got drunk.

Qin Yan didn't say goodbye to anyone, stood up and walked straight down the corridor of the water pavilion.

"Tiger King, Tiger King, where are you going?" Chu Jin called twice inarticulately, and seeing that Qin Yan didn't answer himself at all, he muttered twice: "It's like this every time, just leave!" ”

Qi Yan got up and said goodbye, "The wound on my body has not healed, so I should not drink more, everyone have fun." ”

One after another, some people got up and left, and in the end, only Xi Yanxing was left, because Mu Qinghan left him without leaving, and Jing Liang asked people to send the drunk Chu Jin back to the house.

The three of them moved to the inner hall, where Qin Yan and Qi Yan had already drunk two teas.

Jing Liang closed the door, opened a window, and stood by the window, then asked, "Wing King, what's wrong?" ”

Mu Qinghan groaned slightly, and told Chu Li about Chu Li's entry into Beijing from Natsume and the fact that the herbs in the three cities were snapped up.

Qin Yan frowned, "From Natsume to Eastern Chu, Jinguan City is the only way to go. He looked around at everyone with cold eyes, "And Jinguancheng used to be the sphere of influence of Anxinlou, although the An family has no longer served as the city lord in the past five years, but the foundation raised in the past few decades is still there." ”

"If Chu Li had relied on Xia Mu's troops, the stragglers would have already entered the territory of Eastern Chu and intended to try it slowly. Jinguancheng is a good place, located outside Qingcheng Mountain, west to Phoenix, north to Liangzhou, can advance or retreat. Mu Qinghan took the desktop as a picture, tapped to determine the location of several cities, and talked eloquently.

Qi Yan approached and pointed his hand at the location of Liangzhou City, "Does he want to take advantage of the chaos in Liangzhou and cross the city?" Then he connected the positions of several cities and said: "Liangzhou, Longmen County and Jincheng blocked the capital in a triangular encirclement, does he want to hit the stone with an egg?" ”

"Without further ado, we'll leave tonight." Jing Liangjiu woke up halfway, but the evil charm on the corners of his eyebrows and eyes had not dissipated.

Qin Yan nodded lightly, "This king will personally go to Liangzhou City." ”

Mu Qinghan looked at him, but the words that came to his lips did not come out, he only nodded, "Then the king of this book can run back to Longmen County if he can't say it; King Yan, Jincheng has a lot of work for you. ”

Jing Liang raised his eyebrows, still with three or four points of drunkenness, revealing impassionedness, "Today's Dongchu is the dream of all of us, and it cannot be coveted by others." At the beginning, it was snatched back by all difficulties, and now how dare you say that it is hard work. ”

Mu Qinghan's heart was aroused by him, and the man's ambitions and ambitions could only be realized when he went to the battlefield.

After fixing his mind, he consulted with everyone about the affairs of the capital.

Xi Yanxing garrisoned 100,000 troops in the city, and the palace Praetorian Guard added a barracks, led by Xiang Tianqi, without Qiu Zhidian's interference; Qi Yan is responsible for contacting the news of various places to ensure that the first time inside and outside the information is known.

After the assignment is completed, each goes back to prepare.

Qin Yan returned to the Tiger King's Mansion and didn't even return to the courtyard, sitting in the front hall waiting for Jiang Tao to prepare the horse.

After a while, Jiang Tao took the meteor to the saddle and led him outside the hall, packed some change of clothes for him, and took a package and put it on the saddle.

"Lord Wang, you just let the little one go with you, so that you can take care of it." Ever since Qin Yan asked him to prepare a horse, he kept begging and had to go with him.

Qin Yan didn't care about him at all as if he hadn't heard it.

Before leaving, he looked at Jiang Tao with sharp eyes, "I am optimistic about the place of this king, if there are irrelevant people to disturb you, this king will ask you for guilt." ”

Jiang Tao couldn't help nodding in agreement, watching Qin Yan's Pegasus disappear into the night.

It began to rain at dawn, at first it was just dripping, Mu Qingyan took Sanjiu and drove away and ignored it, and gradually as the sky brightened, the rain became heavier and heavier. At this time, the two had just entered Longquan Town, so they had to temporarily change into wet clothes in the inn and wait for the rain to stop.

Who knew that the rain showed no signs of stopping, although Mu Qingyan was anxious but still calm, holding his cheeks in the window facing the street on the second floor, and more than half of an idle book in his hand had been opened.

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Mu Qingyan knew that he couldn't go today. She didn't sleep all night, so she took advantage of this time to get a good night's sleep, and when the rain stopped, she could go north overnight.

Qin Yan came in the rain, and when he walked to Longquan Town, the rain had been pouring, but the sky was as dark as ink at noon. The meteor had already been soaked in rain, but it was still roaring unruly.

Longquan Town said that it is not big, most of the shops on the two main streets have been closed, and on the east side of the main road to the north, a two-story small building stands in the rain, the pretense is wet by the rain, and there are some signs of decay, but the door is open.

Qin Yan hit the horse and walked to the door, the guy hurriedly greeted him, and after enthusiastically pulling the horse and letting Qin Yan in, he went to the backyard and tied the horse.

The shopkeeper's shrewd eyes couldn't stop looking at Qin Yan, only to see that his new robe under his robe, the jade belt around his waist, and the long sword in his hand were all precious and abnormal.

"Master, although the shop is dilapidated, it has some inheritance, and the chef's skills are also good, how about making two more side dishes for you to warm up with a kettle of wine?" The shopkeeper can speak.

Qin Yan nodded indifferently, then turned his head to look out the window, ignoring the shopkeeper.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, "Is there a room?" Qin Yan asked.

"Yes, yes. There is only one of the three upper rooms upstairs, come with me, guest officer! The head of the shopkeeper led the way up the narrow staircase of the hall to the second floor.

The shopkeeper opened the innermost room and greeted Qin Yan, "This is the room, you rest first, I'll ask the guy to bring you the wine and food, be quiet." ”

Qin Yan nodded, didn't answer, and went directly into the house.

The shopkeeper observed his words and knew that this identity must be extremely noble, and he couldn't talk to him, so he waited respectfully.

Longquan Town is only 300 miles away from the capital, and the official road to the north passes through the town, and there is no bigger town before and after, so it is quite prosperous, enough for those who pass by and miss the big city to rest.

After the wine and food were served, Qin Yan first took the wine jug and poured a cup, and instantly twisted his eyebrows in his mouth when he drank it. The wine was bitter and astringent, and he swallowed a sip and had no desire; Fortunately, although the dish was simple and delicious, I ate some indiscriminately and let the guy withdraw.

After a while, the guy brought a bucket of hot water. Qin Yan took off his robe and just slipped into the water, when people on the street outside the building turned into a mess. He listened intently for a moment, then closed his eyes and took his bath.

Mu Qingyan was awakened by this noise, she rubbed her eyes and walked barefoot to the window. There was a crowd of people in the street, and four carriages were parked next to them, and there were women's scolding, and men's angry anger, mixed with the cries of children.

She watched for a while and didn't know what was going on, but there were also the people who watched the excitement and the newcomers who came to see the excitement in detail. Mu Qingyan half-listened and half-guessed, and knew the approximate.

To put it simply, the woman was deceived by this man, and she also abducted her family and wanted to marry someone else. The woman was unwilling, and led the people to intercept the man halfway, wanting to snatch back what belonged to her.

The man also brought the bride who was engaged, but of course he refused to return it, and he refused to give it up.

Mu Qingyan was not interested in such things, and covered Sakura's mouth with her little hand and yawned and wanted to go back to bed again. At this moment, I heard the mournful cry of the woman downstairs: "It has nothing to do with me if you marry someone else, but you can't if you want to take away my child; My furniture can be given to you, and you need to return the child to me. ”

A man yelled angrily, "Get out of here! The furniture is earned by me, and the children are mine, and I can't give you anything. ”

Mu Qingyan squinted his eyes and turned around to look out of the window, and saw the man in gorgeous clothes and full of anger from a distance. The woman hugged his thighs and let him beat and kick violently, saying that she would not let go. In a carriage next to her, a younger woman was trapped in her arms with a crying and hoarse child, about the same size as Shen Jun.

She was instantly furious.

floated from the window and fell into the crowd, pulled the woman up, and asked her in a condensed voice: "Sister, the child is yours?" ”

The woman's face was blue and purple, broken and swollen, and there was almost no good place.

"Yes, it's mine......" The woman looked at the fairy-like person who came out of nowhere, stunned and at a loss.

Mu Qingyan looked at the woman fiercely, "Do you want a child or this man?" There was an irresistible choice in her voice, "You just tell me which one you want, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

The woman burst into tears in an instant, and she cried so much that she couldn't breathe with the rain mixed with tears.

"Yes, yes, yes...... Woo, I just want to get back, I want my child back......"

Mu Qingyan's neat volley hit the man who was stunned by her twice, then turned around and walked to the carriage, snatched the crying child from his hand, walked to the woman's side and stuffed it into her arms.

Although the man came back to his senses, he couldn't break free from the point and reprimanded: "Who are you? Hurry up and let me go, or I'll let you go around without eating! "He couldn't even move a finger, and there seemed to be a thousand needles poking between the bones, and the pain was unbearable." Do you know who I am? If you dare to do this to me today, you will die...... Oh, it hurts......"

Mu Qingyan glanced at the man with a gloomy face, "Okay, I'll hear who you are today!" ”

"I am the cousin of the current queen and the nephew of Lord Taifu!" The man endured the pain and looked at Mu Qingyan very sadly, "Just because you want to spoil my good deeds?" If you obey my ...... today," the man endured the pain in his heart and raised his head pretentiously, "For the sake of you being a beauty, as long as you agree to enter my house as a concubine, I won't talk about my past suspicions, how about it?" ”

Before Mu Qingyan lost his temper, another person floated down from the window, and landed beside the man, his extremely cold eyes quenched with frost and snow, and he could freeze people for several days in an instant.

It turned out that Qin Yan washed and put on his clothes, and was just about to sit down at the table at the window, when Mu Qingyan snatched the crying child and held it to the woman. He was petrified in an instant, his eyes unblinking at the woman who made him lose control every time, and his intuition told him: she was angry!

Mu Qingyan glanced at Qin Yan, and scolded in his heart: The road is narrow.

"Eldest sister, he is rich and powerful, are you willing to go back to live with him?" Mu Qingyan asked coldly.

The woman handed the child into Mu Qingyan's arms and shook her head with extremely determined eyes. Then she approached the man and waved her hand at the man's face.

"You owe me this slap!" She calmed down and said slowly: "At the beginning, I was not determined to follow you, you promised to treat me wholeheartedly, this slap is what you deserve if you lose your trust!" Her eyes were also red, and she slapped out again, "This slap is what you owe to the child!" If you are guilty, why should you rush to kill them all? I could have given away the furniture, but you listened to the woman's instigation to snatch the child. I would like to ask, you have many wives and concubines, and who can treat my children sincerely? You deserve this slap too! ”

She turned around and walked back to Mu Qingyan, and suddenly knelt at her feet.

"Don't, please get up!" Mu Qingyan hurriedly flashed sideways, holding the child with one hand and helping her up with the other.

The woman refused to get up, "Girl, thank you for standing up for me today, but he has some power at the bottom, I don't want you to be bullied by him in the future, you go quickly!" She wanted to kowtow but was stopped by Mu Qingyan.

Mu Qingyan helped her up and stuffed the child into her arms.

The woman burst into tears instantly, reluctantly hugged the child tightly into her arms, and kept kissing the child's little face.

"Big Sister ......"

The woman raised her head and begged, "Girl, let him go, I don't want to see him again." ”

Mu Qingyan sneered and walked to the man's side, and his two fingers rushed out to relieve his acupoint, "Get out, don't let me see you again, or ......"

The man didn't dare to snatch the child again, although he didn't know Mu Qingyan, he was really frightened by her methods; What's more, there is a man like an ice cube standing next to him, and this man's noble aura cannot be ignored. He didn't dare to be angry, he didn't dare to scold, and hurried to the carriage where the young woman was.

"Wait!" Mu Qingyan shouted at the man who was about to get into the car, and everyone could clearly feel that the man was so frightened by her that he almost couldn't stand still. "What did you kidnap someone?" Mu Qingyan walked to the back three carriages and raised the curtains and was about to look at them, when the young woman in the carriage scolded without knowing whether she was alive or dead.

"There's her stuff there, it's my dowry!" She jumped out of the carriage and blocked in front of Mu Qingyan, "Who do you think you are, today you stand up for her, do you know that tomorrow her fate will not be more miserable?" I warn you, the current queen loves my husband very much, as long as he says a few words in front of his cousin, this half of the world of Dongchu is also my father-in-law. ”

Mu Qingyan stared at the young woman with a pair of beautiful eyes in disbelief, she remembered that Brother Han said that Taifu is not in charge of real power, and marrying a young lady from his family can be exempted from the harem power, and when will half of Dongchu be from Taifu's family?

The young woman looked at Mu Qingyan's reaction, thinking that she was afraid. continued to show off arrogantly: "If you know each other, hurry up, who is rare with her child, but the husband is reluctant to leave his own flesh and blood outside, and there is not more than one person who calls him back." ”
