Chapter 51: Excalibur in the River
Since the accident at the East Gate, Mu Xiyun has been in a trance all day long, thinking of the tragic death of Mu Yuqing and his father, Mu Xiyun really can't bear it in her heart, Mu Yuqing is very annoying, but she never thought of killing them.
Yu Mingche saw that his beloved concubine was languishing all day long, and he was very unbearable in his heart, so he found an excuse to patrol the river embankment and wanted to take Mu Xiyun out to breathe.
Of course, taking Mu Xiyun out for a walk is only on the surface, and the second main thing is that King Lian has been quiet recently, but it also seems to indicate a bigger conspiracy, and he must go to the canal that is being built now to inspect it to feel at ease.
When the day of departure came, Mu Xiyun jumped up and down happily, one time to prepare the clothes to wear, and the other time to hug the rice, to see if the rations brought to him were enough, looking at him like this, Yu Mingche felt a little uncomfortable, because he knew that Mu Yuqing's death had left a huge shadow in her heart, and after getting into the carriage, he couldn't help but feel distressed and gently hugged her into his arms.
"Yu Mingche, you said Mu Yuqing, are they really heinous in the East Gate? To kill them all? Mu Xiyun asked with a slight tremor in his arms.
"Silly girl, there are so many absolutes in the world, they just need to wear a hat, but maybe this is the best for them, the deeper the pool, the more loyal and traitorous can be washed." In fact, Yu Mingche also felt that the punishment of Dongmen was too serious, and pleaded with His Majesty several times, but he insisted on dealing with it like this, and Yu Mingche was also very helpless.
"Okay, don't think about it, even if there is really anything, it was provoked by Mu Yuqing herself, don't be sad, since we are out, let's have a good rest, don't think about those unpleasant things." He still habitually scratched her nose gently, and Mu Xiyun finally showed a little smile.
When it was noon, the convoy needed to rest, Yu Mingche helped Mu Xiyun get out of the carriage, and when he walked down, Mu Xiyun saw Wuwei who came with them, screamed and ran to him, which made Yu Mingche take a big sip of vinegar.
Wuwei still smiled so gently, because this inspection of the river defense was very important, Yu Mingche wanted to bring both of them, but after all, Wuchen was old and physically inconvenient, so he only brought Wuwei alone, and there were very few people who knew Wuwei's identity, so it would not expose the whereabouts of their senior brothers.
Seeing that Mu Xiyun was about to shout out the word master, Wuwei hurriedly smiled and silenced his mouth, Mu Xiyun had no choice but to quickly cover his mouth and pull up his sleeves shyly.
"I'm here this time as Mr. Yanwangfu's bookkeeper, Yun'er, you remember to call me Mr. Qin in front of people in the future, don't be careless to say my identity." At this time, he saw someone coming over, so he hurriedly saluted Mu Xiyun, and Mu Xiyun also understood that he would walk past him in the posture of a princess.
Walking back to Yu Mingche, Yu Mingche pulled her to the back of the carriage, avoided the eyes of the crowd, and kissed her fiercely until she begged for mercy.
"What are you doing? How bad it is for so many people to see. Mu Xiyun said to Yu Mingche a little angrily
"I don't care, I see it, you are my princess, who dares to say anything, but when you saw your master, you immediately ran over, not thinking about being a husband at all, it seems that I am naïve to be angry with you." Yu Mingche tapped her forehead lightly and pretended to be angry.
At this moment, the crowd in front of them let out an exclamation, and Rice also ran over to them and called at them, as if telling them to hurry up and see something new.
Picking up the rice and looking at the place where the crowd screamed, a group of people gathered around the small river and shouted, Mu Xiyun quickly pulled up Yu Mingche and ran over, it turned out that there was a group of fish gathered in the middle of the river, and now they were swimming happily, and they did not disperse in fright because of the shouts of the crowd, but gathered more and more.
Wuwei also walked over, looked at it and said to Yu Mingche with a smile
"The fish are condensed but not dispersed, which means that there is something in the river that attracts them, and the prince might as well arrange for someone to go down and have a look."
Yu Mingche looked at Zhisong after listening, he pulled up his trouser legs and waded down, the river was not deep, but it was also cold and biting, and after a while, he saw Zhisong's calves frozen red.
Mu Xiyun thought a fire decision in his heart, and attached it to Zhisong at a speed that mortals could not see, he instantly felt warm all around him, not afraid of the cold of the river, and Yu Mingche knew all this, and smiled at his princess, and she also reciprocated with a hippie grimace.
"Lord Wang, it's a broken sword, I don't know where it rushed down." Zhisong gently drove away the fish, saw that it was an ancient sword covered with rust, turned to Yu Mingche and shouted at them.
"Take it and see why it attracts the fish." Yu Mingche also said to Zhisong.
But it was obviously just a short broken sword, and the river was also very shallow, but Zhisong couldn't pull it out even if he wasted his strength, which made Yu Mingche have some doubts in his heart.
"Lord Wang, it must be a treasure that recognizes the Lord, and meeting it is fate, you can go down and try it." Wuwei leaned his head against Yu Mingche and said softly beside him.
Yu Mingche also waded down after listening to Wuwei's words, fortunately, Mu Xiyun had already attached a fire to him in advance, so he didn't feel the cold of the river when he went down, but when he walked in front of the ancient sword, even if he and Zhisong used force together, it didn't move at all, it was like nailing to the bottom of the river, but it seemed that this was an ordinary small river, and it was impossible for such a magical thing to be discovered until now, and it must have only rushed to the bottom.
A few more strong men jumped down, but even with their strength, they still couldn't move it at all, which made Wuwei and Mu Xiyun standing on the shore dumbfounded.
"Yun'er, go ahead, go and see." Wuwei smiled and turned to look at Mu Xiyun and said.
"Master, what did you say? Me? Mu Xiyun was a little incredulous, pointing to himself and asking.
Wuwei didn't say anything more, just laughed lightly, and that smile really made Mu Xiyun die, she felt that she would go without hesitation, and she didn't think about it anymore, she pulled up the corner of her skirt and walked over.
Walking into the middle of the group, they were all stunned, how could a bunch of things that a bunch of men couldn't do, could it be that the thin princess could come? They let go of the hand that drew the sword, but Yu Mingche was a little worried, pulled Mu Xiyun's arm, she turned to him and smiled at him and gently held the hilt of the sword.
I was thinking of a bunch of things that people couldn't pull up, so Mu Xiyun made a ruthless move, but he never thought that the sword was pulled up in an instant, but Mu Xiyun stumbled back into the river because of too much force.
Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect that the things that a group of people didn't move were pulled out by the princess with a gentle pull, and it wasn't until Yu Mingche exclaimed to pull Mu Xiyun who fell down that everyone reacted and hurriedly helped Yu Mingche and Mu Xiyun who were soaking wet.
Wu Wei, who was standing on the shore, laughed, if it was really a thing to recognize the Lord, what is the identity of this good apprentice of his, every time he feels like a divine help, unfathomable, but then she couldn't help laughing again.
