Chapter 166: Confession

On the wide official road.

The speed of the carriage slowed down a little, and at the end of the line of sight appeared a city much smaller than Yu City.

"It's here so soon."

Chen Yue stood up in the carriage, the girl was slim, looking at the Anyu County Mansion in the distance, with a little reluctant look in her big eyes.

Since Chen Mu practiced the knife, she hadn't stayed with Chen Mu for a long time for many years, and she wanted to talk to Chen Mu more when she had some free time, but when Xu Hongyu came over, she could only make way for her future sister-in-law obediently.

This trip from Yucheng to Anyu County Government, although it was a car, but the horse pulling the cart was a brown-maned horse with a trace of monster blood, even if it was pulling the frame and running fast, but she was still happy to be able to travel with her brother for a long time.

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue's appearance, but he also smiled, since he got the Wind Knife Technique and began to practice the knife, he has always been cautious, step by step, and has never slackened.

It's a pity that He Wuwu didn't appear along the way.

Although he didn't let Yu Jiujiang follow this time, he was always a little 'deliberate', He Wuwu and Xuanji Pavilion should still be afraid of Yan Jingqing, worried that he deliberately set up a situation and was not fooled.

Although he did deliberately seduce and wanted He Wuwu to come out and completely solve this person.

Since I didn't come.

That's it.

Chen Mu continued to drive forward, and soon came to the outside of Anyu County, although he was wearing simple cloth clothes, he was not stopped for interrogation, and entered the city all the way unimpeded.

……

Somewhere in the courtyard.

It is a small courtyard, with a la carte on one side, a water tank on the other, and a firewood pile covered with oiled paper, so you can tell at first glance that it is an ordinary people's house.

In the slightly dilapidated inner room, Liu Rong, who had gray hair, was lying on the earthen kang, her eye sockets were deep, her limbs were thin, and her face was not very ruddy, only looking at the beams of the house in a daze.

"Mother, drink the medicine."

A man about thirty-five or sixteen years old walked in, carefully came to the bedside with a bowl of medicine, and helped Liu Rong to drink the medicine, but he couldn't feed it with a mouthful of medicine.

When Song Qi saw this, his somewhat thin and numb face suddenly showed a trace of panic, put down the medicine bowl, and said, "Mother, wait, I'll go and make ginseng soup for you, and I'll go to ...... immediately."

Probably a few months ago.

There was an old man in the county government who came over and asked Liu Rong some things, and then he gave their family some silver money for the first time, so that they could take good care of Liu Rong, and even go to the county government every month to get some money.

Of course, Song Qi knew that the lord of the county government would give money, there must be some other reason, originally he was a more filial person, and now he took care of Liu Rong even more, but in the cold winter, Liu Rong was still sick.

Liu Rong is already over sixty years old, in this worldly poor home, it is enough to be called a long life, the elderly are not sick or sick on weekdays, but once they get sick, most of them can't afford to be sick.

"Ahem, ahem......"

Liu Rong stretched out her dry hand and grabbed Song Qi, wanting to say something, but she couldn't speak, but moved a little bigger, causing a violent cough.

Seeing this, Song Qi didn't dare to leave, and said again and again: "Mother, don't worry, don't worry, speak slowly." ”

While comforting Liu Rong, he shouted outside: "Zhou'er, take some copper coins, go buy a few ginseng, hurry, go quickly." ”

Listen to the movement.

Two children ran in from outside, a boy and a girl, the man was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and the girl was younger, about eleven or twelve years old, the boy ran out when he heard the command, and the girl trotted to the bedside: "What's wrong with grandma?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay."

Song Qi held Liu Rong's hand and said in a somewhat dry voice.

And yet at this moment.

Song Zhou, who had just run out, turned back and said, "Dad, someone is here, and there is an official master." ”

Song Qi's hands were trembling slightly, and when he heard Song Zhou's words at this time, he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly stood up and said, "Miao'er, you look at grandma, I'll go out to greet the official......

He had just walked out of the house.

I saw that some people had gone into the courtyard.

The first to attract Song Qi's attention was a middle-aged man wearing a cyan official uniform, an official hat, and official boots, followed by several officials, including the one who came to the door a few months ago.

What surprised Song Qi even more was that these officials and masters of the county government were not walking in the middle, but walking on both sides, and they did not take a steady square step, but bowed slightly, looking like they were waiting carefully.

Walking in front of a few officials,

But it was a man and a woman who looked very young.

"Xiaomin kowtows to the master."

Although Song Qi didn't know what the situation was, just by seeing the large group of errand officers lined up outside the door, he knew that the officials who came back were not trivial, and he didn't have time to distinguish too much at the moment, so he immediately knelt down and saluted.

But before he could kneel down, the young girl who was walking in front of him reached out and grabbed him.

"Is it Song Qi?"

Chen Yue looked at Song Qi and asked.

On the way here, she had already learned something from the official messenger of the county government, if Song Qi's mother Liu Rong was really her aunt, then Song Qi was her cousin, although it was not quite certain now.

Chen Mu glanced at Song Qi, but did not ask, but with a movement of his mind, he had already sensed the situation in the house, and after his eyes flashed slightly, he walked straight into the house.

Song Zhou and Song Miao also ran out, and when they saw the battle in the courtyard, the officials and masters who were wearing official uniforms and had majestic faces were a little frightened and stupid for a while.

Chen Mu's eyes only glanced at the two children, and without pausing, he went straight into the back room.

At the first glance of Liu Rong, he was basically sure, after all, all the information in the intelligence was consistent, and from the breath, there was obviously a sense of blood connection.

"You...... Cough...... Ahem......"

Liu Rong looked at Chen Mu who walked into the house, showing a look of confusion, wanting to ask something but coughing violently.

Chen Mu approached the past, helped Liu Rong up, a wisp of Yuan Gang appeared in his palm, patted her back twice, barely smoothed out the chaotic qi and blood in her body, and said at the same time: "My name is Chen Mu, my mother's name is Liu Ping, and I was abducted and trafficked from Anyu County to Yu County City many years ago. ”

Liu Rong's cough eased a little, and when she heard Chen Mu's statement, and then took a closer look at Chen Mu's appearance, she suddenly had a vague sense of familiarity, and said in disbelief for a while: "You, you are Ping'er's ......"

Chen Mu carefully sensed Liu Rong's physical condition, and immediately sighed in his heart, Liu Rong has never practiced martial arts, at this age, he is infected with wind and cold, and it has reached the time when the oil runs out and the lamp is dry, if he is not delayed by so many things, he may be able to recover a few days earlier, but she is not Yu Jiujiang after all, even if she survives this winter, she will not live much.

That's when it happened.

Chen Yue also ran in, and after seeing Chen Mu nodding slightly at her, she looked at Liu Rong's old and weak appearance, and suddenly remembered the last appearance of her mother Liu Ping, and her eyes immediately turned red, and she couldn't help crying when she walked to the bed.

This made Liu Rong a little overwhelmed: "Child, what are you crying about...... You, you and Ping'er are really similar when they were young, are you also ......?"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Yue suddenly cried even more, and simply buried his head and cried loudly.

Chen Mu gave up his position to Chen Yue, stood up and took two steps back, and said to Liu Rong: "She is my sister Chen Yue, you can talk to her, in fact, I should have seen you a few months ago, but I didn't recognize it at that time." ”

Chen Mu has now stepped into the realm of the five visceral organs, and his five senses are far sharper than ordinary people, and he also has the ability to remember them clearly, and some details from a few months ago can also be recalled clearly, and he immediately remembered that he should have met Liu Rong at that time, but he couldn't identify it at that time, and at that time he didn't have such a keen perception ability as now.

Forthwith.

Chen Mu patted Chen Yue's back again, and then walked out of the house.

In the courtyard outside the house, I saw that the whole courtyard was silent, whether it was the officials in the courtyard or the large team of errand officers outside the courtyard, they all dared not make a sound.

Song Qi was also trembling and didn't dare to speak, and he didn't know what was going on.

When Chen Mu and Chen Yue entered the house just now, he had already learned about Chen Mu's identity from the officials next to him.

Yu County Supervision Division!

He had no idea how big this official was, and he only listened to the official explain, not to mention that in Anyu County, even in the entire Yu County, there were few officials who were bigger than Chen Mu, which was beyond his imagination, and he could even appoint and dismiss the county lord in a word, what a big person that was.

The most incredible thing for him is that the other party is still so young, and he looks like he is in his twenties.

Chen Mu walked over slowly, not revealing any breath at all, but Song Qi only felt that the young man in front of him seemed to have an indescribable momentum, which made people a little breathless, and even the many officials and masters next to him were nervous.

"Stand down, go outside, it's none of your business."

Chen Mu said lightly to the officials of the county government.

The officials of the county government were not sure whether Liu Rong was his aunt at that time, but they still gave money to subsidize it, and also sent some errand officers to patrol this generation openly and secretly to prevent Liu Rong's family from having an accident, and the thing was done quite remarkably.

When many officials heard Chen Mu's words, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and after quickly saluting Chen Mu respectfully, they cautiously withdrew from the courtyard one by one, and soon only Song Qi and his two children Song Zhou and Song Miao were left in the courtyard.

Then.

Chen Mu finally turned his head to look at Song Qi, and said calmly: "Cousin Song, don't be nervous, I came here this time just to recognize my relatives." ”

Cousin?

This title startled Song Qi and almost trembled.

The young official in front of him, who was almost to the sky, actually said that he was here to recognize his relatives?

Chen Mu walked to the side at this time, looked at Song Zhou and Song Miao, who were a little stupid there, reached out and touched Song Miao's little head, and said: "Your mother Liu Rong, once had a younger sister, that is, my mother, you are my cousin, I have been looking for your family for a long time, this official in Anyu County is still sensible, after finding you, I did not let your family be wronged." ”

Chen Mu said in a very calm tone.

He has a good sense of Song Qi's family, mainly from the officials of the county government, Song Qi is usually more filial, and after taking the silver taels from the county government, he did not squander it wantonly, but served Liu Rong with delicious food and drink.

Song Qi was already stunned at this time, he finally understood, why a few months ago, there would be an official who came to the door, and he was polite, and even their family could go to the county government to receive money, it turned out that it was in a distant county town, and there were such relatives.

But.

Even if he had already understood, he was still trembling when he looked at Chen Mu, this world has always been an official over a relative, although Chen Mu called him a cousin, but he didn't dare to respond directly like this.

With such a status and identity, Chen Mu is willing to spend effort to find their family in the remote Anyu County, which is a promotion to their family, not the confidence that he can support.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, cousin should go to the back room with his two nephews, the old man has little time."

Chen Mu withdrew his hand, then sighed again and said a word to Song Qi.
