It was night, a group of men in black hurriedly walked through the woods, and a cloud of dead leaves and dust was stirred up wherever they passed.On the back of the leader is a child in a cloak.

The child was about six or seven years old, and the biting cold wind whizzed past his ears, but he ignored it.He just stared blankly at a certain point in front of him, quietly following the man in black.

This person is Mu Changyan's eldest son - Mu Ziming, the head of the Mu Mansion.

Beihe II, with three heroes at the head, is the three mansions of Liu, Li and Mu.With the power of the three governments, it can almost compete with the imperial court.Only one Yege, relying on the business of killing people, even though he doesn't participate in business, can make the three houses fearful.

A hundred years ago, the government did not explicitly impose restrictions on the market.All the governments wantonly amassed wealth, making the emperor rich, the country was poor and weak, and the people were in dire straits.Various officials wrote to the emperor one after another, requesting strict market orders and measures to restrain business.

Since then, the imperial court has monopolized the salt, iron and other industries in the market. Although there is a position to cooperate with the government, only the government with the strongest financial resources can get it.For a hundred years, each government has fought openly and secretly, just to win that position and become the head of the three government.

Ye Ge takes cold eyes on businessmen's fights for profit, except for collecting money to accept orders and killing people to return orders, he never takes the initiative to intervene in the generational grievances of the three prefectures.

Today, the Mu Mansion is ineffective in management and is gradually declining.And the Li Mansion, who had been dormant like a tiger for a long time, finally couldn't bear it and rushed into the Mu Mansion in one fell swoop in the night. The latter was caught off guard, and the huge family was almost wiped out overnight.

This group of people in black are all from the Mu Mansion. They were ordered by the mansion master Mu Changyan to hand over the two young masters to a place where no minions can get in - Ye Ge.

Before they came out of the melee, they went through a hard fight, and many of them were wounded to varying degrees. Even the youngest son of the Mu family was stabbed in the melee. In the arms of the clothed man.The group of people did not dare to stay for a moment, and rushed towards the destination in a stumbling manner.

The rustling north wind blew through the woods wantonly, and the chaotic leaves danced and rattled, as if they were singing a mournful and desperate elegy.

-

The bloody images resurfaced in Mu Ziming's mind over and over again, and the sound of the clash of swords seemed to be still echoing in his ears.There were endless screams, and the blood light spread and soaked the bluestone slabs that were familiar in the past.

Dead, all dead, all gone.

"Father...Mother..."

Hearing a faint voice finally came from the back that had been silent for a long time, the leading man in black heaved a sigh of relief, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, young master, you will be safe soon."

A small courtyard hidden in the forest finally appeared in front of everyone.Dim lanterns slanted to the blue bricks and black tiles beside the door, and the branches and vines coiled on the stone wall. Except for the vigorous and powerful leaf characters engraved on the door, this simple and unsophisticated dwelling can no longer be compared with Dingding Ye Ge, a well-known assassination organization.

But this group of people knew in their hearts that this was the residence of Ye Kuangge, the third generation Ye Pavilion master.

The pedestrians stopped, and some seriously injured people had already collapsed from exhaustion, only the rising and falling chests proved that they were still alive.The leader of the man in black put down the child on his back and went forward. He said something to the doorman who poked his head out curiously because he heard the noise. The doorman nodded and closed the door.

The man in black stepped back and ordered to the group of people behind him, "Kneel down!"

As soon as the words fell, the men in black who were still standing knelt down on one knee. They supported their knees with one hand and fell to the ground with the other.He bowed his head respectfully and waited for the person who was about to appear.

The leader of the man in black stretched out his hands to straighten the child's somewhat messy sideburns. Instead of the serious expression just now, he put on a loving smile, which made the fine lines around his eyes even deeper.As the chief manager of the Mu Mansion, he is already in his forties, and he has never had a wife in the 30 years he has worked for the Mu Mansion.But he watched Mu Ziming grow up, and he took care of his martial arts and studies, so he has long regarded him as his own.

Mu Ziming looked up at the familiar face of the man in black, and tightly clenched the man's sleeves in fear.His young heart had just suffered a severe blow, and the strange things around him made him flustered. He didn't know why he came here. He just felt that this person's smile not only didn't make him feel at ease, but made him feel that he was about to lose his heart. The last one to rely on.

Mu Ziming was anxious and afraid, he wanted the person in front of him who had always loved him to promise that he would not abandon him.But when he opened his mouth, the words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a word.

The man in black knelt down and put his hands on Mu Ziming's shoulders. He knew what the child was worried about, but he had no other choice but to comfort Mu Ziming gently.

"Young Master, the Mu Mansion is already in danger this time. I am afraid that I will die if I go there. You and the Second Young Master are the only long-cherished wishes of the Palace Master and Madam. If the Pavilion Master Yege is really as the Palace Master said, he can accept it." You guys, then I, Li Zhen, will fulfill my mission."

In the warmth, there were waves of footsteps behind the heavy wooden door.

Li Zhen hurriedly knelt down, and said to Mu Ziming beside him, "Young master, you kneel down too."

Mu Ziming knelt down as he said, and the closed door was pushed open with a creak.He just raised his head and glanced at it, and it was that one look that he will never forget.

The visitor seemed to come by the wind, a banished immortal who floated into the world.The plain white fox fur made the man's cold face even more cold and arrogant, and the scattered hair was randomly tied up by the hair crown.The man had one hand behind his back, and the light was too dim for Mu Ziming to see his expression clearly, but the aloof and inviolable aura of that man made him bewildered, and he couldn't help marveling that there is such a god-man in the world .

Mu Ziming's gaze was too obvious, which attracted the other party's attention.In the next second, he received the other party's cold gaze back.This kind of eyes without any emotion made Mu Ziming feel that his breathing was stagnant, and it was actually colder than the cold wind, but in just one breath, he felt chills all over his body.

Mu Ziming shuddered, and quickly lowered his head to avoid that line of sight.

Ye Kuangge looked at the group of people kneeling in front of his house with a headache, he was in a bad mood after being disturbed from his dream.On the way out, he had already heard about the affairs of the Mu Mansion, and considering the current situation of the Mu Mansion, he expected such a thing to happen.Looking at Mu Ziqing, who was hugged by the man in black with a pale face, and Mu Ziming, who was avoiding his sight in a panic, Ye Kuangge knew what was going to happen next.

But Ye Kuangge didn't want to let these people succeed too easily after being woken up, so he said unhappily, "I don't know why Director Li visited Ye at night."

Li Zhen was naturally aware of Ye Kuangge's anger. Now that the Mu family is doomed, the top priority is to ensure the safety of the two young masters. He has no choice but to bite the bullet and speak.

"I wonder if the third master can accept my two young masters."

As expected, he came to seek asylum.But he is not a benevolent person with a compassionate heart, he only does what is beneficial to himself.

"Ye's place is not a Salesian."

"Third Master, do you still remember the favor you promised my Palace Master a year ago?"

Ye Kuangge was suddenly stopped by the question, and he frowned, thinking about the part that was about to be forgotten in his mind.

Mu Changyan, a year ago, favor?

After a while, Ye Kuangge seemed to think of something, and suddenly let out a laugh, which made the people below tremble.

That day, I had a drink alone in the Qingfeng Building, and when I was about to pay the bill after a good time, I found that the silver tael had been forgotten in the pavilion.He wanted to call someone down but found that there was no one in his pavilion nearby. When he was thinking about whether to kill someone to silence him, Mu Changyan suddenly appeared from nowhere and paid the bill for himself.

Ye Kuangge never owed favors, seeing that the other party was not like the kind of cheap-cheap villain that time, he probably wouldn't make unreasonable demands, and he didn't want to take advantage of others in vain, so he owed that favor.

Unexpectedly, this crop has come now, and the merchant is indeed the most shameless existence.

"A year ago, your family's master only gave me a drop of wine money, but because of this, he asked me to raise his two children. This request is very unreasonable."

Ye Kuangge narrowed his eyes, and approached Li Zhen. As he approached, a kind of invisible coercion made the group of people feel almost breathless.

Li Zhen was ashamed, he was too hasty before leaving, Mu Changyan didn't explain the favor when he explained to him, but after hearing Ye Kuangge's explanation, he knew he was wrong.Now the only bargaining chip is gone, no matter whether the other party agrees or not, he can only accept it.

But the other party didn't refuse yet, Li Zhen didn't want to give up any hope, he begged cheekily with the last bit of hope: "I hope the third master thinks twice, I, Li Zhen, will make a knot in return!"

After finishing speaking, he knelt down with both feet, propped his hands on the ground, and put his forehead on the ground, with an extremely humble posture.

The men in black behind also knelt on their knees at the same time, and even the men in black who had fallen to the ground struggled to sit up and spoke in unison.

"Third Master, please think twice!"

A group of people on the ground seemed to refuse to get up if they disagreed, and the scene seemed to be at a deadlock.

Ye Kuangge was unmoved, he was not interested in the promise of the dead.

He turned his gaze to an ancient locust tree not far away, only a few residual leaves fluttered in the wind on the bare branches.It's winter again, what year has it been?

children?He also had...

I still remember the early spring of that year, when the rain was hazy.He took the other party's hands under the silk and red robe. Although she was only the daughter of a small merchant, she was his only wife.

As for how they met and why they got married, he can't remember clearly.does he love herYe Kuangge himself doesn't know, because he doesn't understand love.He only remembered the warm smile that was always on the lips of the other party, as if the warmth of the sun melted the coldness in his heart, that feeling should be called happiness.

He still remembered that before she entered the delivery room, her face was pale from the pain and she was sweating profusely, but she still held his hand and forced a smile, telling him not to worry, saying that she would give birth to a fat son for him.

fraud.

This was the last time that woman smiled in Ye Kuangge's memories, but the memories were so bleak.

The subordinates ran over in panic and told him that neither the adults nor the children were kept, and they all went away.

Ye Kuangge froze in place helplessly, and suddenly let out a burst of mournful laughter.There was thunder on the flat ground, it was God laughing at him, mocking a person with blood on his hands not worthy of happiness, let alone family happiness.

With the woman's departure, Nuan Yang also disappeared.The cold heart is once again trapped in eternal dust.

……

Letting Ye Kuangge sink into the memories, everyone did not dare to make any noise to interrupt, or even dare to take a big breath, for fear of disturbing this person.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Kuangge withdrew his gaze, and without knowing what he was thinking, he said leisurely: "People stay, you guys go."

Li Zhen was a little dazed by the surprise that fell from the sky. After he reacted, he immediately stood up with his stiff legs, fearing that Ye Kuangge would regret it in the next second, and clasped his fists at him and said, "Thank you three times for the Palace Master!" Lord, I am grateful to Li Zhen for this kindness!"

"The third master please accept this." Li Zhen took out something from his bosom and handed it to Ye Kuangge with both hands.

Ye Kuangge opened it and saw that it was a jade seal wrapped in blood-stained brocade cloth.The jade is white and smooth, with exquisite decoration, and the word "Mu" is neatly engraved in seal script on the bottom.The small jade seal is not only a symbol of the power of the Mu Mansion, but also a symbol of the Lord of the Mu Mansion.But this thing is kept by him for the time being.

Before leaving, Li Zhen leaned down and said his last farewell to Mu Ziming.

"Young Master, please remember that as long as you are still alive, the Mu Mansion will not collapse."

Mu Ziming shook his head desperately, he stretched out his hand to hold Li Zhen's hand, and said, "No, take me with you, I want to go with Uncle Li!"

Li Zhen shook his head, pulled Mu Ziming's hand away, handed it to a servant of the Ye family, and hurriedly led a group of people towards Mu's house, walking firmly, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Mu Changyan is dead, how can they live on.
