Chapter Seventy-Six: The Road Ahead
As soon as He Shuyun came over, he saw the scene of Xue Mu killing people.
It was just a little girl, no older than her, lying on the ground, ragged and bloodstained, with pain and pleading in her eyes. The moment he saw her appear, he seemed to be full of hope, and he opened his mouth as if asking for help, but in the end he just tilted his head, and there was no more life, because Xue Mu did not erase her life without the slightest hesitation.
Xue Mu's cold eyes then fell on her.
I don't think I'll kill her too.
He Shuyun said silently, no......
But he was very frightened in his heart, and took a few steps back, but he didn't notice that there was a stone behind his feet, and he sat down on the ground at once.
He Xinmu happened to arrive and held He Shuyun.
"Why are you so careless, it's okay."
He Shuyun shook her head in a hurry, He Xinmu realized that something was wrong with her, and looked around, everything was normal, could it be that the two of them quarreled after a while?
He looked at Xue Mu with puzzled eyes.
Xue Mu ignored it, wiped the necks of several people one after another, approached the two of them, and said, "Let's go." ”
He Xinmu responded: "Yes." Then he asked, "Where are we going?" ”
This is also what He Shuyun wants to know, and she pricked up her ears when she heard the words.
"Suzhou." Xue Mu replied.
The old nest of the Heijiang League, He Xinmu was not surprised, and nodded to indicate that he had no opinion.
He Shuyun squeezed He Xinmu's hand and motioned for her to say something, but He Xinmu just shook her head, her eyes warning her not to interfere.
Thinking of Xue Mu's eradication of several weak women without pity, there was a burst of cold sweat behind him.
He Xinmu was going to try to do something in He Mansion again, but Xue Mu, who could fall from the sky, broke all her assumptions, maybe this is the will of heaven.
It's not something that can be done with hard work alone, and now that the matter has come to this, let He Fu ...... Resign yourself to your fate.
He Xinmu didn't want to worry about these things anymore.
The appearance of Xue Mu will limit her freedom of action to the greatest extent, and the things that she could still think about in the past should be left behind now, and the more important thing is to concentrate on dealing with Xue Mu.
can't even control his own affairs, and he still wants to be a savior, He Xinmu laughed at himself.
After walking for about an hour or two, they finally met the person who answered them.
The moment he stepped into the carriage, He Xinmu's heart pressed a heavy stone again.
Since then, she has been bound by the Heijiang League again.
But this time she is just an insignificant person, she has no ability to interfere with the life and death of others, on the contrary, she has to do her best to protect herself.
It's going to be tough.
Xue Mu patted her shoulder and said with relief: "Believe me, since I tried my best to get you, I won't let you die." I will take good care of your sister, and I will never lose a single hair of her hair, you satisfy me, and I will satisfy you. ”
He Xinmu didn't want to speak, so he slapped his hand away and said, "Who knows." ”
Xue Mu retracted his hand with a smile and replied, "I'll know later." ”
Many years later, when He Xinmu recalled Xue Mu's smile, he would grit his teeth with hatred.
Since then, she has completely become Xue Mu's pawn, and she just wanted to break her head at that time, and she couldn't imagine what he brought her here for.
You'll always know, she thought that at the time, and didn't care too much about what the situation she was going to face.

Hu Fei walked all the way to Jiangning, went to return to Su Wuli, and without seeing others, he directly locked the He family and He Bing together.
A holy decree was passed down in the capital, asking Su Wuli to carry out a comprehensive investigation, and be sure to catch all the people involved in the rebellion, and escort them to the capital together with their families.
The saint sent an envoy to Shandong to raid the palace of Lu County.
After the death of King Lu, according to the ancestral practice, the widow of King Lu should be demoted to the king of the county and welcomed back to the capital. But at that time, the first emperor was ill, and the prince at that time was now the son of heaven, who only demoted the widow of King Lu to the king of the county, and still enjoyed the fief and the fortune of King Lu during his lifetime, and the people praised the prince for his benevolence and filial piety.
But now the things that have been dug out are equivalent to a slap in the face of His Majesty, how can you not be angry, how can you spare it!
Therefore, it is not allowed to be thoroughly investigated and severely punished.
Su Wuli complied with the order and began a large-scale search.
looked like he could connect as many plants as he could, which made people panic, and when he saw Su Wuli, he was as respectful as he could, for fear of offending him and being charged with joint crimes.
No matter how big things are, there will always be a day when the dust settles.
Su Wuli was busy for more than half a month, raiding as many as 113 high-grade officials involved in the case, confirming that all the insignificant slaves were sold, and the rest were sent to the capital in batches.
After this incident, most of the officialdom in Jiangnan, Jiangbei and even Shandong were paralyzed.
Some people rejoice and some people worry.
If someone dismounts, someone will naturally take the position.
Another wave of frenzy and chaos is coming.
He Xinmu didn't know what was going on outside, no matter what she asked, the people here were tight-lipped and never said a word, but she had recently fallen in love with the flowers and plants, and she wouldn't be bored.
It's more than February, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and looking at the flowers and plants are red, green, and green, it is also very elegant.
On this day, Xue Mu made a surprise visit.
Xue Mu didn't know what he was busy with recently, and the day after he sent them here, he secretly sent He Shuyun away.
He never appeared again.
He Xinmu knocked on the side and knocked on the people here, but he never got an answer.
At first, I thought it was because Xue Mu taught him well and didn't eat at all, but later he found out that these people didn't know anything at all, and they were private slaves raised by Xue Mu.
And all of them have some skills.
This made He Xinmu realize that Xue Mu was not willing to accept his current position, and he must have some big plan planned. And she, perhaps, is also a step in his plan.
But what could she do?
He Xinmu raised his eyes and looked at Xue Mu, who was sitting opposite her.
She has a few pounds and a few taels, and she knows it very well in her heart.
Assassination? She doesn't have that ability, and in the end, she may be discovered and implicated by others.
Seduction? Her appearance is only average, and she will not make men happy, Xue Mu will not consider this unless her head is funny.
Undercover? She is a woman, that is, she can be a maid, and what important news can she get in touch with as a maid.
How do you look at it, she is all a waste chess, or did Xue Mu think of something she didn't expect?
I won't get her here, just to be locked up here and not see the light of day.
Ever since he came here, he's been sitting there motionless, not knowing what he's waiting for.
He didn't speak, and He Xinmu didn't have anything to say, the two of them each held their own cups, and no one was willing to speak.
After being silent for a long time, Xue Mu frowned and spoke: "Tomorrow, He Bing's family will be escorted to the capital." ”
Xue Mu paid attention to her expression as he spoke.
He Xinmu didn't react at all. But his hands were on his knees, clenched into fists.
