Chapter 271: In a cage
"What?" Mu Junwu couldn't hide his surprise: "What task to perform?" ”
Tang Jiu'er looked at Mu Junwu and didn't speak, which made Mu Junwu's heart chuckle, and he couldn't help but get nervous: "Please tell me, I must know if she is in danger." ”
Tang Jiu'er's expression was immediately a little sad: "How can it not be dangerous, to be exact...... She was gambling on her life! ”
Mu Junwu's expression changed drastically, and he took a few steps closer to Tang Jiu'er, almost asking, "What did you send her to do?!" ”
Tang Jiu'er stared at Mu Junwu's face under anger, and said helplessly: "Grandma sent her to kill Meng Zhixiang." ”
"What?" Mu Junwu looked horrified.
Just when Mu Junwu's heart was pounding, Hua Rou and the others were already on their way to Suizhou.
One carriage, four people.
Tang Xin in the hidden weapon room and Tang Hu in the soul snatching room sat on the frame outside the carriage, dressed like ordinary people, probably in order not to dazzle their eyes, they looked like a couple, snuggling up to each other, as if they were going out on a long trip.
And in the carriage sat Hua Rou and Yu'er, and the two of them seemed to be shrouded in a cloud of gloom, and their expressions were difficult to relax.
"Although there are only two helpers, as long as we are cautious, it should not be a big problem." Yu'er whispered to comfort Hua Rou, and she was also comforting herself.
Truth be told, assassination is not impossible.
But when she saw that there were only two people accompanying her, her heart was even more panicked than Hua Rou - Hua Rou was panicked about the assassination itself, and she panicked about how she should retreat in the face of everything in the master's house.
Yu'er comforted Hua Rou, but Hua Rou silently hugged her knees, turned her head to look out the window, silently like a stone sculpture.
Seeing this, Yu'er took a deep breath and took out a piece of paper full of words from her bosom and put it on the small table: "This is all the information related to Dong Zhang's family, you have to memorize these things backwards, so that you can not reveal flaws when asked, let's take a look!" ”
Hua Rou remained silent, only looking out the window.
Yu'er said helplessly: "I know that this mission is very dangerous, and I also know that you are uncomfortable, but now that we have started, we can only try our best to do things well......" Yu'er said Seeing that Hua Rou still didn't care about herself, she reached out and pulled Hua Rou's arm: "Hua Rou!" Don't you ...... Sample ......"
Hua Rou turned around, and the tears in her eyes that were vaguely visible made Yu'er stunned.
"I'm in a cage." Hua Rou pointed to her heart in a distracted manner: "I feel out of breath..."
Heart, inexplicably throbbing, Yu'er jumped up and hugged Hua Rou's shoulder: "Don't be like this, you didn't do anything wrong......"
The cage, that was the eternal darkness in her memory, and she could feel the helpless despair in Hua Rou's heart.
"But I owe others a favor, so I can only do what I don't want to do, it's so uncomfortable......" Hua Rou closed her eyes in pain, tears falling silently.
Yu'er looked at Hua Rou distressedly, and stopped talking.
……
"Damn!" Mu Junwu, who went to the main hall to talk and knew the details, looked at Tang Jiu'er with an angry expression: "The door master is using Huarou as a chess piece!" ”
"If you can't come back, it's a chess piece; Come back, that's the qualifications. ”
Mu Junwu snorted coldly: "The person who belongs to the door master is Tang Xiao, even if Hua Rou returns safely, there will be the next and next task waiting for her!" ”
Tang Jiu'er looked a little stunned: "That's ...... and break all calamities until he is seated as the Lord of the Doors. ”
"Crazy!" Mu Junwu slapped the table: "This is her life!" ”
Tang Jiu'er raised her eyes and stared at Mu Junwu: "Breaking the cocoon into a butterfly is the only way for those in high positions...... Aren't you the same? ”
Mu Junwu was speechless, but Tang Jiu'er sighed: "If a person is Mu Xiu Yu Lin, her existence is a threat to others, even if she has no intention of fighting, but who cares?" Can you save yourself by blindly avoiding it? ”
Can you save yourself?
He knew that Tang Jiu'er was talking about Hua Rou, but he felt that his heart was pierced and painful - what did he get in exchange for blindly avoiding and being humble?
Mu Junwu's hand clenched into a fist, and he still couldn't refute it.
"Let her be a strong person, only by going to the highest position can she really save herself." As soon as Tang Jiu'er's words fell, Mu Junwu turned around and left.
"What, are you going to find Hua Rou? Can you protect her for a while, but can you give her a lifetime? Tang Jiu'er frowned and stopped: "Besides, now you can't even protect the people around you." ”
Mu Junwu, who had already walked to the door, stood still when he heard this, and after a few seconds, he turned around and said, "If I live for a day, I will protect her for a day." ”
"What about your own business? What should I do? ”
Mu Junwu lowered his eyes, and after a while, he looked at Tang Jiu'er: "Why did Meng Zhixiang want to kill me?" ”
Tang Jiu'er shook his head: "I don't know. ”
Mu Junwu immediately took two steps back: "But you said that he was going to kill me." ”
"Earlier, Grandma received instructions from him many times to find you out......," Tang Jiu'er made a killing gesture.
Mu Junwu squinted, gritted his teeth and said, "Is the death of my mother also related to the Tang Sect......
"I don't know about the affairs of the court, but one thing I can tell you for sure is that grandma only has the Tang Sect in her eyes, and nothing else."
"Then grandma knows my details?"
"I don't know about that, but she always likes to leave a way out, so ......"
"It seems that I am also a pawn in her hand."
Tang Jiu'er could only be silent about this, and Mu Junwu saluted with his fists when he saw this, turned around and walked forward.
"Mu Junwu, you haven't answered me yet!"
Mu Junwu, who was standing by the door, looked at the sky outside, and his voice was faint: "I have lost my mother, if I lose Hua Rou again, what is the use of taking the country?" ”
"Wait." Tang Jiu'er quickly opened the mechanism, took out a box, and threw it at Mu Junwu: "Next!" ”
Mu Junwu turned around and caught it, looking at Tang Jiu'er puzzled.
"Take it, you can use it!"
Mu Junwu peeled off a crack in the box with his fingers, glanced at it, and a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes: "When I went out, I was tired of the poison lord to clean up the aftermath for me." ”
"Okay, when someone asks, I'll say that you're designing a poison array for me, and you're going to stay in my poison room for more than ten days."
……
Suizhou is not far from Yuzhou, and it is an important town located at an equidistant distance between Chengdu and Yuzhou.
As soon as the Dong family's family send-off team arrived at the post station, the post officials had already enthusiastically poured up.
When the door of the third carriage in the team opened, the woman wearing a wedding dress with a hijab was carried off the carriage by the Xi Po next to her, and after entering the post station, the other carriages were unloaded one by one on a box of red and colorful dowries, guarded by the next person, and the horses who walked all the way were finally freed and dragged to the stable.
"Sure enough, it's a noble girl, this is really a lot of marriage!" In the corner tea shop, Hua Rou and the four people pretended to eat tea, but in fact, except for Hua Rou, they were all staring intently at the post station.
Tang Xin looked envious: "If I get married, it will be enough to have her box of good things!" ”
Tang Hu smiled: "What's so difficult about this? We can even change the bride's pillars, and it's not difficult to deduct a box of dowry......"
"Don't come nonsense!" Yu'er snorted: "These dowries are all written on the list, and if there is less, it may arouse suspicion." ”
Tang Xin and Tang Hu glanced at each other and pouted together.
Yu'er wanted to ask Hua Rou about the plan of action, but saw Hua Rou's eyes staring at the teacup, and she still looked depressed, so she had to shut up.
