Chapter Seventy-Seven: Heshan

Mu Xiaoxiao went all the way unimpeded, and arrived at Heshan after fifteen days.

Heshan is on the northwest border of Tianjin, and the people in the city make a living by planting dry wheat and barley, and there are about 50,000 people in the city. Because it is a military fortress and a border city, the walls of the city are made of white stone, and a white stone is more than one person high, and the walls look very neat.

The climate temperature difference here is very large, Mu Xiaoxiao arrived in the morning, her teeth chattered in the cold, but when she arrived at the post house, it was close to noon, and the sun shone on the people's heads dizzy, and the hot people were sweating!

Mu Xiaoxiao rolled up her sleeves, she fanned the wind with her hands, and drank cold water cup after cup.

Wufeng on the side had a calm face, and he even had a refreshing and non-greasy face, and Mu Xiao looked at him strangely.

"Aren't you hot without wind?" she finally asked.

"The heart is calm and naturally cool. No Wind said softly.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the sweaty Zhuo Zhuo again: Tut, it shouldn't be, he is a little impetuous, but Zhuo Zhuo is so steady, how can he sweat so much? She looked him up and down, her eyes stayed on his lower body, could it be that he has kidney deficiency? Mu Xiaoxiao knows that if a person has kidney deficiency, then he is always easy to sweat when he encounters high temperatures. She felt that since she was a doctor, she had the responsibility to take care of everyone around her, and she secretly made up her mind: when she returned to Jingting, she would give him a good pulse and recuperate.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the officials are polite. A man in his forties wearing a six-rank official uniform said respectfully.

"Your Excellency doesn't need to be polite, I'll wait here for Lord Zhuo. You don't have to wait. Wufeng said lightly.

"Yes. The lower official retired. The man bowed to Excellence and withdrew.

The things at the post station were good, especially the barley noodles, and Mu Xiaoxiao ate three bowls. Wufeng poured her a glass of water: "This thing is not easy to digest, you eat less." “

Mu Xiaoxiao drank water, vaguely responded, and suddenly felt that there was a familiar figure in her afterglow, and when she looked back, there was nothing.

Mu Hibiscus and Zhuo Feng sat down on the second floor of the post house, and Zhuo Feng looked at the acquaintances downstairs: "Mu Gongzi, my brother and they are all below, why do we want to come up." After speaking, he was about to stretch his neck to say hello.

"We don't want to meet with them these days. This Heshan's fine work was not caught. If we stay together, I'm afraid the goal is too big. Hibiscus glanced downstairs, intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhuo Feng felt that it was indeed right to separate, with the current situation, if a group of people were together, his father would inevitably let him go back to the barracks to live, so that he would be trapped in it, and he could not be discovered and investigated as a bystander. Thinking of this, he retracted his neck and looked around cautiously. Suddenly, at a table in the corner of the downstairs, a man and a woman were standing, the man was pouring out the wine in the vat and pouring it into a small porcelain bottle, and the woman was placing the bottles on the wooden shelf. At first glance, that's fine.

But it's strange. After a while, both of them would look in the southeast direction of the post house, and follow their gaze, where Mu Xiaoxiao and Excellence were sitting.

Zhuo Feng was about to say this, but when he saw that Mu Hibiscus had already paid attention to the man and woman, he snorted lightly and did not speak.

The two of them observed the people below, and the people below observed Mu Xiaoxiao.

Excellence had long noticed the strangeness of the man and woman, and he said to Wufeng: "There are little tails here. “

Wufeng glanced at the man and woman, and frowned slightly: "Dumped them tonight." “

Mu Xiaoxiao and his party met the legendary Thunderbolt General at twilight, Zhuo Zhiyan.

The group got up and saluted, and General Zhuo laughed "haha": Since General Ben is here today, we will not get drunk tonight.

Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw the excellent appearance: he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at his father at this time, and his fingers stroked the lid of the teacup.

General Zhuo Zhiyan was about forty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dark skin and a strong voice, he looked at the excellence on the side, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Have you studied the art of war with Xinjun recently?"

Zhuo Zhuo sat up straight, put his hands on his knees, and said seriously: "Back to my father, the child has diligent sword practice every day, although the military book is complicated, but the child will not be lazy." “

"Now the situation in Jingting is unstable, and after the pass of the female Yan Kingdom, you will go back and protect Your Highness. Zhuo Zhiyan looked solemn.

"The retainers obeyed. "Excellence responds.

Wufeng and Zhuo Zhiyan went to the private room, and Zhuo Zhuo stood guard outside the door. Mu Xiaoxiao entered his room a little tired, and Ao Dai had already fallen asleep tired. She sat at the table, gently caressing the moon, and the gentle and indifferent face of Hibiscus flashed in her mind.

Hibiscus knocked on the door of the private room, and the Zhuo brothers stood guard outside.

As soon as Zhuo Zhiyan saw the hibiscus, he couldn't take his eyes off it. His eyes lit up and said, "Dare to ask where Gongzi is?"

Hibiscus said lightly: "There is a leaf of duckweed in the bottom, I don't know where it comes from, I don't want to go anywhere." ”

Zhuo Zhiyan didn't seem to hear his prevarication. stood up directly and looked at him: "I remember that the old man also has such a pair of eyes that see through the warmth and coldness of time, I don't know what the son has of the old man?"

Mu Hibiscus said: "The old people are no longer there, and there are some thoughts left for the living people, but I don't know that this thought is so lonely, like a needle and a knife, every time I think of it, it is the beginning of cutting myself." ”

Zhuo Zhiyan was a little disappointed, but his eyes were extremely firm: "If you can renew your dream with your old friend, even if you cut yourself, what does it matter?"

Mu Hibiscus stopped talking, and Zhuo Zhiyan paused for a while before he whispered: "Since you are here by the emperor's order, we should focus on state affairs, and when the state affairs are resolved, we will come back to talk about the past." ”

He nodded undeniably, and the three of them handed over the military pay and grain and grass, signed and pressed their handprints, and when everything was finished, it was also afternoon.

In order not to touch Mu Xiaoxiao, Mu Hibiscus entered the barracks with Zhuo Feng. Excellence and Wufeng are still leading a small army and stay in the post house for the time being.

Mu Xiaoxiao slept this time, and unknowingly in the middle of the night, she was woken up by Ao Dai.

"My lord, you get up and eat something, and then go to sleep after eating. Dai quipped.

Mu Xiaoxiao reluctantly got up, and she trembled.

Birdie put a cloak on her, and she felt much warmer.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Dai Dai with a strange expression: "There is still something to eat here so late?"

Ao Dai took out a bowl of barley noodles and put it in front of her: "Eat." “

Mu Xiaoxiao is no longer polite. She ate the noodles vigorously and gulped down the soup. After eating and drinking, I realized that I wanted to find excellence first.

"Where is excellence now. Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her and asked.

Birdie didn't speak, she just looked at the open window and smiled knowingly.

Mu Xiaoxiao followed her gaze to the second floor, stood up, and walked up.

Dai didn't want to go, but she was afraid that Mu Xiaoxiao would cause some trouble again, so she followed.

I didn't care about going up this time, I saw that Excellence and Wufeng were sliding around on the map, and Mu Xiaoxiao was curious to go up!

Looking at the length of her neck, he looked at her and said, "My lord, this picture doesn't make much sense. “

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything when she heard this.

The two have been discussing, from the use of soldiers to the war, and they have been talking for an hour, Mu Xiaoxiao saw that the two of them were no one else, and just said to himself, so he lay on the ground and fell aside to make up for sleep.

By the time she woke up, she was already on the verge of death.

There was no one in the house, and when she pushed the door open, she saw Ao Dai standing in the doorway.

"Didn't you rest last night?" Mu Xiao said in surprise.

Dai looked at her: "I didn't need it today, but I really can't rest assured, you didn't come back last night!" Speaking of the back, she simply gritted her teeth.

Mu Xiaoxiao was also suddenly embarrassed, she looked around and asked, "What about Excellence and Windless?"

"The two adults have already gone to the barracks. Birdie shook her head. Mu Xiaoxiao laughed: "I was too tired last night, let's go to the barracks too." After saying that, she took the lead out of the post house.

Dai Dai followed, and the two of them walked faster and faster. Dai Dai suddenly had a black line on her face.

Mu Xiaoxiao always had something in her heart that she couldn't understand, and she didn't want to understand it, she just wanted to confirm whether the suspicion in her heart was true.

When he arrived at the barracks, he was stopped by the soldiers, and Mu Xiaoxiao's face was calm.
