Half a month later!

After half a month of vigorous purge, although it did not completely eliminate the power of the Ping Shengmeng, it also cut off a lot of its wings, including some people hidden in the officialdom.

It can also be regarded as a gravity blow to the Ping Shengmeng.

The Ping Shengmeng also seemed to be completely hidden, but many people noticed that it was just the calm before the rainstorm.

It was nearly dusk.

The sunset on the horizon is half-shaded, and the slightly dim sunlight stretches the shadows of all things in heaven and earth to a particularly long time.

South of the city, Mugong Mansion.

Mu Gong is one of the three princes of the Southern Dynasty and occupies a high position.

He was an old man with gray hair, and even though he was over sixty years old, he was still physically healthy and energetic.

However, Mu Gong has been very sad recently.

One of his favorite granddaughters, who has been seriously ill since she was a child, has become more and more serious recently, and even the palace doctor is helpless.

Not to mention healing, even if they have the luxury of relieving the disease, they can't do it.

Indoors.

On the soft couch, there was a young girl, fourteen or fifteen years old, with a delicate face, but her face was bloodless and unusually pale.

It's like a blank sheet of paper.

She opened and closed her lips, looked at the old man sitting next to her, and asked with difficulty, "Grandpa, am I going to die?"

"Silly boy, what are you talking about, the doctor has already said that you have been too tired recently, so you will be like this, take a good rest for a few days, and you will get better. Mu Gong smiled and comforted, but it was difficult to hide the sadness at the corner of his eyebrows.

The girl's voice was very soft, and she struggled to spit out the words, and said intermittently: "Grandpa, I am no longer a child, my body ...... I know best, Grandpa, I know you love me the most, if I'm gone...... Don't be sad, I'll always give you dreams, so you can ...... I've seen me often. ”

"Silly boy, don't talk nonsense, rest well, just wake up, and when you're well, I want you to play chess with your grandfather." Mu Gong was still smiling, but his old eyes were already smiling.

"Okay, then Yuanyuan have a good rest, and when Yuanyuan is well, she will play chess with her grandfather. The girl smiled too, and the smile was pale.

She slowly raised her thin right hand and wiped the tears from the corners of the old man's eyes.

Outside.

A middle-aged man stood outside the door, quietly listening to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson in the house.

"God, why do you treat my family Yuanyuan like this?" Mu Hansheng sighed in his heart. As a father, now, I can only watch my child get sicker and worse, but there is nothing I can do, how sad it is.

More than a month ago, shortly after the "sachet was stolen", Mu Yuanyuan suddenly relapsed from her old illness, and she searched for the famous doctor in Xiaoxing City but was helpless, so he had to straighten out the carriage and take her daughter to Nandu to seek treatment from the imperial doctor in the palace, but the result was that the imperial doctor of the palace was helpless.

He had expected such an outcome for a long time, but he didn't want to give up so easily.

At this time, Mu Hansheng is no longer the "big man" in Xiaoxing City, who has the power to kill, and now he is just an ordinary father.

Whoosh –

Suddenly, an arrow shot out, Mu Hansheng noticed it, and dodged sideways, and the arrow was nailed to the pillar beside him.

He was about to chase after the enemy, when he suddenly noticed that there was a letter tied to the arrow.

Mu Hansheng took off the letter paper and opened it, only to see six words written on the paper: Youshi Donglong willow tree.

"Could it be him?" Mu Hansheng frowned.

He remembered the man who called himself "Ben King".

Just as Mu Hansheng was thinking, Mu Gong walked out, turned around and closed the door softly, glanced at Mu Hansheng, who had an unnatural expression, and asked, "Hansheng, what's wrong?"

Mu Hansheng said: "It's okay. ”

Before that, he had quietly put away the arrows and the letterhead.

"Yuanyuan also fell asleep, you've been tired lately, you should go to rest first, don't be tired. After Mu Gong finished speaking, he patted his son on the shoulder.

"Yes, father. ”

——

Donglong Street, there is a lake at the end of the street, because the lake water is clear and calm, the scenery is beautiful, it is extremely famous, it is a famous place in the southern capital, and there are quite a lot of people who watch the scenery during the day.

But at this time, it was already unitary time, and few people walked around the lake.

Rows of willow trees are planted along the embankment, and because of the fertile land, the branches are green and delicate, lush and long, and many of them extend to the bottom of the lake.

A cool breeze blew, and the branches swayed in the wind, like a naughty child, disturbing the calm surface of the lake, and creating a circle of ripples......

Mu Hansheng came as promised.

After a while, footsteps sounded behind him.

Mu Hansheng turned his head, he saw the person coming, but he couldn't see it clearly.

It was a man of uniform stature wearing a demon mask.

On this big night, on the shore of the lake, where the full moon is missing, wearing such a ghost mask, if it were not for the sound of footsteps, ordinary people would really think that they had seen a ghost.

Mu Hansheng frowned and said, "Sure enough, it's you!"

"City Lord Mu, don't come unharmed!" the man began.

"I don't know why Your Excellency invited Mu to come here?" Mu Hansheng said.

"How did City Lord Mu think about that matter before?"

Mu Han said coldly: "Are you trying to trap Mu in a land of disloyalty and injustice? If you want Mu to betray King Nan, it will never be possible." ”

The man said: "Lord Mu, this is a matter of your daughter's life, if you can help this king, this king will not only cure your daughter, in the future, the little star city will still be yours, in addition, Liucheng and Mucheng are also yours, this is the king's promise to you, and it is also your reward." ”

Mu Hansheng was silent.

"Lord Mu, as far as this king knows, your daughter's illness can't drag on for a few days, if it drags on like this, don't say it's the king, even if it's the Daluo Immortals, I'm afraid no one can help you, I hope you can think about it, this king will give you three days, three days later, if you agree, you will hang this card here, this king knows it." The man handed Mu Hansheng a very ordinary wooden card.

Mu Hansheng was still silent, but he took the sign.

"Lord Mu, this king is waiting for your good news!" the man went away.

——

In the dark night, on the deserted street, the ghost-faced man walked slowly, following behind him, following the two of them.

One of them asked, "Lord, will Mu Hansheng really agree?"

The ghost-faced man paused slightly, as if he was also thinking about it, and then gave an answer: "Perhaps, for the sake of Little Star City, he won't, but...... For the sake of his daughter, he would have agreed. ”

——

Under the willow tree, Mu Hansheng was like the lake water disturbed by the willow, it was difficult to calm down, he stood for a long time, silent for a long time, until the night wind weakened, the lake was finally calm, he sighed slightly.

"Is that really going to be the case?" he had a decision in his mind.
