Mu Chengye hugged Xie Qian all the way back to the room, and only let go of her after making sure that there was no figure following behind. The maid found the fox doctor and personally checked her pulse to make sure that she was fine, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

After such a toss, the sky gradually darkened, and I wanted to go to the Fox King Hall to eat Mu Chengye's wind and dust washing banquet.

Not worried about letting her be here alone, Mu Chengye decided to take Xie Qian to go in person.

He specially chose a fiery red brocade dress, and ordered the maid to tie her hair into two buns and apply rouge gouache.

After being dressed up like this, a slightly baby fat face turned out to be delicate.

Mu Chengye casually conjured a golden feather hairpin and pinned it to her bun, met her shining eyes, couldn't help but chuckle the corners of his mouth and pinch her cheek, and said gently: "I didn't expect you to look good when you dress up." ”

Xie Qian, who was originally a little nervous, suddenly became angry when he heard this, rolled his eyes and protested: "I used to look good, but you never seemed to care." ”

Mu Cheng was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything.

Probably worried about her, Mu Chengye told many rules in the banquet. Thinking that she shouldn't remember everything, she pinched her eyebrows and said, "Forget it, you just need to eat during the banquet." ”

"I'm good at this." Xie Qian immediately laughed.

After a while, the two came to the door of the main hall, and the maid immediately led the two to the waiting room behind.

The main hall of the fox king was built in an unusually magnificent manner, and all kinds of unnamed trees in the courtyard were clustered and glowing with each other, and if you looked closely, the trunk of the tree was actually inlaid with a night pearl.

Walking through the courtyard and following the pillars, although there is no light, it is as bright as day.

Mu Chengye told her that this was because the top above the pillars was a combination of various luminous treasures, so there was no need for any lamps.

Hearing this, Xie Qian couldn't help but cover her mouth in surprise and sighed in a low voice: "Your father is really similar to you." ”

"How can you feel this way?" Mu Chengye asked suspiciously.

Xie Qian said seriously: "Do things in a high-profile manner." ”

“……”

Mu Chengye can't wait to slap himself twice now, why do he ask this sentence so much. He turned his head away, not wanting to talk to her anymore.

Walk through the columns. Finally came to the waiting room. A carved pear wood table is in the center, and a variety of delicacies are placed on it.

The fox king sat at the top in a black coat, about thirty years old, with a smile on his mouth, but he showed his majesty. To sum it up in Xie Qian's words, it is: very difficult to mess with.

Mu Chengye stood at the gate and raised his sleeves to salute, and gestured to Xie Qian with his eyes. She immediately comprehended the blessing of her body, and said respectfully: "I have seen the fox king." ”

"You're Xun'er's life-saver, right?" The fox king smiled and nodded, pointing to the seat next to him and motioning for the two to sit down, "Sit down." ”

Xie Qian walked to the front of his seat, bowed his head and complimented: "Don't dare to be a life-saving benefactor, it is a blessing for the little butterfly to be fortunate enough to appreciate the majesty of the fox king." ”

This sentence was taught to her by Mu Chengye, but she didn't expect to be able to say it so fluently, and he couldn't help but secretly give a thumbs up.

As he spoke, the other four sons also came, and they all saluted to the fox king.

Xie Qian glanced at this person a few times, and heard Mu Chengye's introduction in a secret voice on the side: "It is the third brother Mu Yuhua who is wearing a golden robe and holding a jade handle, and it is Mu Hongjia who is dressed in white and is separated from the others." ”

Before coming, Mu Chengye introduced it. Mu Yuhua doesn't know how to learn, he just wants to be a third son with peace of mind, looking for flowers everywhere and asking Liu if he is comfortable. The fourth son, Mu Hongjia's biggest ideal, is to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, if it weren't for the fox king's dragging, he might have found a cave to get away with.

After seeing the ceremony one by one, they were finally seated. Xie Qian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and secretly thought that there were too many rules of the royal family, and he was not at ease at all.

began to eat, and Xie Qian took this opportunity to gag his mouth.

The fox king didn't care, and casually asked Mu Chengye about the results of his investigation.

Mu Chengye immediately put down his chopsticks, raised his sleeves and said respectfully: "My son is stupid, he didn't find anything useful, and he was injured." ”

"I don't blame you, after all, you're young." The fox king smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Let's briefly talk about what you have encountered." ”

Mu Chengye reported to him one by one, but tried to omit some evidence that could lead his suspicion to Mu Mingyuan. He thought that if he said it now, he would be quibbling, so he wanted to wait until the evidence was sufficient.

Xie Qian ate vegetables for a year while secretly observing the reactions of the other four people at the banquet.

Mu Haoyi seemed to be most concerned about this matter, and he listened the whole time. And Mu Mingyuan seemed to have something on his mind, and rubbed the wine glass in his hand with a straight face. The third son, Mu Yuhua, was only interested in the jade handle, and kept playing with it. Mu Hongjia, the fourth son, drank glass after glass, as if he was borrowing wine to kill his sorrows.

"In this way, I still can't be sure if the person who killed the fox clan is in the royal family, is it?" After listening to his narration, the fox king said thoughtfully.

Mu Chengye immediately stood up and solemnly hugged his fists and said: "Therefore, my son wants to wait for the complete recovery of his injuries in seven days, and then continue to investigate outside Qingqiu Mountain." ”

The fox king frowned with some hesitation: "The last time I encountered such a dangerous situation, the guards couldn't protect you, I really can't rest assured." ”

"Please, Father!" Mu Chengye lowered his head as he spoke.

The fox king was silent for a while, and then said, "Since you want to go out to investigate, it can be regarded as worrying about this king, and you should not be stopped." In this way, this king will find someone to accompany you, and he will protect you on the way. ”

Hearing that he agreed, Mu Chengye said heartily: "But it's up to my father to decide!" ”

The fox king's eyes swept around the four sons, and finally fixed on Mu Hongjia's body, and said, "Li'er, this time it's up to you to go in person." ”

"Me?" Mu Hongjia probably didn't expect to be named, and got up a little reluctantly, "Father, the son is really incompetent." If you neglect your cultivation during this time, you may have regressed too much......"

"Erchen is willing to go!" Mu Haoyi suddenly stood up and interrupted him.

Mu Haoyi has indulged his younger brother since he was a child, and rescued him from the black-faced man this time, which can also be seen that he can indeed protect his younger brother's safety.

Choosing him is actually the best.

Hearing him speak, Mu Mingyuan looked at him with indifferent eyes. He frowned slightly, and turned his eyes to look at Mu Hongjia.

Mu Hongjia sighed, and then hugged his fists and said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your orders, this time you will definitely protect the fifth brother!" ”

Everyone present, including Mu Chengye, was shocked, after all, Mu Hongjia had never been willing to participate in this matter, and it was unexpected that he agreed happily.

Mu Chengye looked at Mu Mingyuan with suspicion, but it happened that he avoided it. He sneered and sat back in his place.

"It seems that Xun'er is really popular, and my brothers are rushing to go out with you." The fox king laughed, and then changed the conversation, "It's just that this time you go out, and the others can't be idle." According to the news, there are immortals who have infiltrated Qingqiu Mountain. The three of you split up to investigate, and come back as soon as you have news. ”

I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, the three of them looked at each other, and finally got up and agreed.
