Chapter 177: Encounter
Mu Qian and the others couldn't stay in Ning'an Town for too long. It is still necessary to rush back to the capital to stabilize the situation.
In this distress, everyone knows who did it.
Lin Muzhi was in Yancheng, and the emperor deliberately took him away from the capital. And what Lin Muzhi has to deal with is private salt.
Lou Yuanche's fief is Yancheng, and the emperor knows the master-apprentice relationship between the two, but the two are not harmonious on the surface. The emperor sent him here, but he was also suspicious, to see if the two were really at odds.
stumbled into Liu Xingwang by mistake. Lin Muzhi directly played the matter to the court.
When the emperor learned of this, he was furious. angrily accused Lou Yuanche of not knowing people clearly, not being strict with his subordinates, being deceived by his subordinates, and making it difficult to control the overall situation. was ordered to return to the fiefdom, and he could not be called back to Beijing, and he was not allowed to leave the fiefdom without authorization.
As soon as Lin Muzhi returned to Beijing, he was sent back to Yancheng by the emperor to investigate the salt smuggling case with Mu Qian.
Lou Yuanche was in charge of salt transportation, and the old emperor sent the two of them to investigate Lou Yuanche, the purpose was obvious, that is, to let them kill each other.
Although the old emperor was only suspicious of a few of them, it did not prevent the old emperor from making this conclusion.
Lou Yuanche was very cautious about salt transportation, and when he first arrived in the fiefdom, he encountered many assassinations. Just because Lou Yuanche harmed the interests of those who sold illicit salt, he almost died several times.
When Lou Yuanche first took office, those people intersected with Lou Yuanche with the intention of pulling Lou Yuanche into the water. But Lou Yuanche didn't eat it softly and hard, forcing the dog to jump over the wall.
Lou Yuanche was crowned King Yan five years ago, and it took five years to stabilize the situation in the fiefdom. It was with the help of Lin Muzhi that the moths in Yancheng were uprooted.
In this way, he almost took Mu Qian's life.
But this trip, it's worth it.
Lin Muzhi looked at Mu Ya and thought like this.
not only helped Lou Yuanche clean up the eyeliner and moths, but also communicated with Mu Ya, and revealed Mu Ya's life experience.
"When are you leaving?" Mu Ya stood beside Lin Muzhi and asked.
Lin Muzhi replied: "When the wood phase master recovers, he will leave." ”
Mu Ya nodded, "How about eating lunch at Tianxiang Building?" Or let Tianxianglou send a table of noodles. ”
After thinking for a moment, Lin Muzhi nodded and said, "It's okay, the wood phase master can just walk around on the ground." ”
When he arrived at Tianxiang Building, Mu Ya instructed Xiao Er to make a table of signature dishes and send them to the private room on the second floor.
When he went to the private room and sat down, Wan Chenyi rushed to hear the sound.
"Little Bud brought a guest?" Wan Chenyi, who had a gentle smile on his face, paused in place after pushing open the door. But in an instant, Wan Chenyi returned to normal, "What do you want to eat?" This time, my brother please, Ya'er just instructs Xiao Er. I still have some things to deal with, the National Teacher, Lord Yan, Master Xiangshi, and the grass people are out of company, I hope you will forgive me. He arched his hand and withdrew without raising his head.
Mu Yaxiu frowned slightly, feeling that Wan Chenyi was a little strange.
"I'll take a look." As he spoke, he chased him out.
No one noticed that Mu Shenxing, who was sitting in the corner of the private room, had his eyes moving slightly, and the corners of his mouth were hooked with a trace of curvature, which was not obvious.
"That's Old Man Wan's grandson, right?" Mu Qian asked Lin Muzhi sideways.
Lin Muzhi nodded, "Wan Chenyi, Wan family grandson." ”
Mu Qian shook his head, "It's a pity that I have a good appearance......
"Father doesn't like him?" Mu Shenxing suddenly spoke.
The hand serving the tea paused, Mu Qian was stunned, and it took a while to come back to his senses, "I didn't get used to it, I just felt a pity." ”
