Chapter 425: The Human Heart Is Unpredictable
"Not long ago, those people brought a heavenly master, and after destroying the ancestral shrine of our Yujia Village, they burned a large area of mountains and forests to set up a feng shui array, which made Zhongshou Mountain smoky and miasma, and the mountain spring dried up for some reason......"
Along the way, the two brothers and sisters of the Yu family kept recalling the absurd things that happened after Yu Yanting left, and Xia Qianwei immediately remembered the Jianghu god stick that Qin Yuyuan was looking for, and she didn't need to think about it to know what such a beautiful place had become now.
However, when the carriage slowly drove to the foot of Zhong Shou Mountain, Yu Yanting was already a little impatient, but who knew that he was stopped by Xia Qianwei.
"What are you going to do?"
"Naturally, I went to Master Yu's mansion to collect evidence!"
Who knew that as soon as the words fell, Mu Longyuan chuckled, "What, are you going to pay for these two little ones together?"
Since there has already been a tragedy in the Yu Mansion, how can it be possible to open the gate and let others sightsee? With Liu Xiang's style, he must have ordered someone to take care of the Yu Mansion, and perhaps he was waiting for these two children who escaped death to throw themselves into the net.
Yu Qing and Yu Yue couldn't help but have a flash in their eyes, and they returned to the sad place, and the two children looked scared.
Xia Qianwei glanced at Mu Longyuan silently, she already understood that there was nothing good to say from the mouth of King You, she immediately whispered, "Now the entire Yujia Village thinks that Gongzi has had an accident, and rushing back is only afraid that it will cause unnecessary disturbances, it is better for Gongzi to find a neighborhood that he had befriended in the past and inquire about some news privately." β
"Okay, good, the county lord of Yongle is extremely right, it's a little reckless!" Yu Yanting's face turned red, and this expression almost didn't let Mu Longyuan kick him out.
At this time, the Qi guards came in with a set of rustic cotton and linen skirts in their hands, "County Lord, this is what you ordered." β
Mu Longyuan knew at a glance what Xia Qianwei wanted to do, and a dangerous voice immediately sounded, "You want to go with him too?"
Why does this girl care so much about that silly boy?
The two of them came to Yujia Village to investigate in person, and they were already benevolent and righteous, if Yu Yanting messed things up by himself, it could only show that people with no brains were not worthy of fighting against Liu, let alone letting them help.
However......
Xia Qianwei had already changed into the peasant woman's dress, her hair was only tied with coarse cloth, and the plain and elegant hair towel set off her unpowdered face pure and bright, becoming a fresh and beautiful scenery.
And beside her stood Mu Longyuan, who was dressed as a tenant farmer, although he was wearing a human skin mask to hide his handsome appearance, but his tall and strong, sturdy and well-defined figure revealed a kind of hidden coldness.
Xia Qianwei stroked her temples with a little headache, she just wanted to disguise herself as a peasant girl in order not to swagger through the market, but Mu Longyuan looked even more suspicious like this.
"Why didn't the prince stay with the Qi guards and wait for news?"
There was undisguised disgust in her eyes, but Mu Longyuan didn't seem to see it, but just hooked the corners of her lips slightly, "Idle." β
β......β
"Yongle County Lord, Mu Gongzi, the little one will take the first step. β
Mu Yanting packed up everything and leaned over, saluted the two of them, and then turned around and stepped onto the mountain path.
Obviously, he has walked this road countless times, but he has never felt that things are people and people are not full of anxiety like at this moment.
Passing through layers of dense forests, the small courtyard of the smoky farmhouse finally appeared in front of him, Mu Yanting immediately quickened his pace, but as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, a peasant woman came out of the backyard with a basket of eggs in her hand, and immediately screamed when she met his sight.
"What the hellβ"
"Auntie, don't be afraid! I'm Yanting. β
The basket of eggs fell to the ground, and the peasant woman, pale, rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
"What's going on?!" Then, a middle-aged man chased him out, and the moment he saw Mu Yanting, his expression was equally complicated and shocked.
"Yanting, you, you're not ......"
"Uncle, it's a long story. Mu Yanting pursed his lower lip lightly, and the man quickly stabilized his mind and stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Good boy, you must have suffered a lot, come on, come in and sit!"
He made a gesture with one look, and the peasant woman behind him suppressed the strange expression and showed a slightly stiff smile, but the moment she turned around, there was a little disgust on her face.
There was a hearty laugh in the room, "It's okay to be fine!" Uncle told your mother that Yanting, this kid Jiren has his own natural appearance, so she doesn't have to worry, no, the person is back well!"
Mu Yanting's eyes couldn't help but darken, thinking of his younger brother's tragic death, his mother was overly sad and sick, he couldn't do his filial piety in front of him, but had to entrust it to his uncle and aunt to take care of.
"My mother, she ......"
"Don't worry, my sister-in-law's illness has improved a lot, and she will definitely be completely cured when you come back!"
However, Mu Yanting couldn't be happy, he frowned tightly and sighed lightly, "Uncle, don't tell your mother for the time being, otherwise let those people know, I'm afraid I will ...... again."
Before he finished speaking, Aunt Yu stepped in and served him hot millet porridge, but he wore a white jade bracelet on his rough and dark wrist.
Mu Yanting was immediately stunned, he was wondering why he had an indescribable strange feeling when he stepped into this familiar room, only then did he find that the wooden tables and chairs in the room were all newly replaced, and the old bedding on the kang had also become brand new, and his uncle's originally sallow complexion was also a lot more ruddy.
The uncle and aunt are frugal on weekdays, and before Mu Yanting has time to think about it, Uncle Yu took his hand bitterly, "Child, it has been so long, why do you bother yourself? β
"Then the lives of my two younger brothers ......"
"It's not their first move? they are young and unreasonable, my uncle has long said that something will happen sooner or later if they are so reckless!"
Yu Yanting opened his mouth in disbelief, the hand in his sleeve was immediately clenched tightly, and he asked with a sad emotion, "What about Master Yu? Master Yu is kind to us, but now he is dying......
"What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't Master Yu recuperating in Yu's Mansion now?" Who knows, Uncle Yu actually glared at him, and Aunt Yu next to him also smiled, "This kid must be in a hurry!"
At this moment, Yu Yanting only felt cold on the soles of his feet, and he was stunned for a long time before standing up tremblingly, but he almost couldn't stabilize his body, but fortunately he was supported by Uncle Yu.
"Yan Ting, but you're not feeling well?"
β...... Uncle, I remembered that I still had important things to do, so my mother asked my uncle and aunt for a few more days. Yu Yanting's voice pretended to be calm, and as soon as the words fell, Aunt Yu on the side immediately asked nervously.
"Why do you have to leave again when you're back?"
However, Yu Yanting looked in the direction of Uncle Yu beyond her deeply, "Uncle, for the sake of my father who saved your life, can you not tell the people in the village that I am still alive?"
A faint dark light immediately crossed Uncle Yu's eyes, and he sighed after a long time, "Okay." β
Yu Yanting didn't know how he got out of that small farmhouse courtyard, and the place that once gave him endless warmth now only made him panic.
Looking at the young man who staggered away, Aunt Yu anxiously grabbed her husband's arm, "Did he find something?"
A contemptuous smile gradually appeared on Uncle Yu's face, "What if you find out......?"
