After a long time, a gust of wind came in from the window, and a small green blade of grass flew in. This time, it landed firmly on Cui En's hair. From its stiff blades, it could be seen that the little monster was at this moment He should be full of anger, probably wanting to pull Cui En's hair.

Cui Jingxing looked up, naturally he couldn't let Uncle Cui become bald, so he gently reminded: "Uncle Cui, your head is a little green."

Cui En was silent for a moment and said, "Master, don't make such a joke."

The grass leaf curled a hair, twisted it towards Cui Jingxing, and flaunted its power before flying back to Cui Jingxing's hand.

The post house changed Cui Jingxing to a new room, but Cui En was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes, so he firmly refused to let his young master sleep alone.Cui Jingxing was also worried that the little monster would run to pull Cui En's hair in the middle of the night, so he asked Cui En to stay in the room together.

"Uncle Cui, this bed is very big, you can sleep on it at night."

Cui En shook his head and said: "I am in good health, just lay a bed on the ground. Young master, you have to rest well at night, so that you will be energetic tomorrow."

"But you are not young, and your waist and legs are prone to cold."

Cui En still refused, in his heart Cui Jingxing will always be his master, and a master is a master, how can he share the bed with a servant?Even when the two of them were poor in the past, Cui En never went beyond.

Cui Jingxing sighed, his Uncle Cui was really hard to deal with being stubborn, so he had to repeatedly ask Cui End to make two more layers of mattresses.

The leaves of grass lay on Cui Jingxing's head, with the ends of her hair curled up, lost in thought.Mu Shufeng has already sent people to investigate Cui Jingxing's family background. Cui Jingxing is indeed from a remote village in Suzhou. His family has a store in the city, but the store is really not big. Even if it is sold, it is just enough to pay for the exam .

The master and the servant had always lived in poverty, and the shop had never made any money. Before Cui Jingxing became an official, the two of them almost ate bran and swallowed vegetables to survive, and even suffered from frostbite during the winter.It can be seen that Cui En has received special training from a wealthy family, otherwise, how could he draw the line between master and servant so clearly?

"Master, go to bed early."

Cui Jingxing nodded absent-mindedly. There has been no news from Meng Yin for a day. Could it be that something unexpected happened to him already?

After the lights were turned off, Cui Jingxing felt the little blade of grass lying on his chest, and felt a little more at ease.

In the dead of night, suddenly there was a sound of prying the lock at the door.The people in the room were not asleep yet. Cui Jingxing tightly grasped the blade of grass when he heard the movement. He lowered his voice and said, "Uncle Cui, there are people outside, let's hide first."

Cui En said: "Young master, you are hiding under the bed. I will deal with it. If the people who come can't see the people in the house, they will definitely search. Then you will be in danger."

"No!" Cui Jingxing's tone was unprecedentedly severe, "How can you deal with these killers when you are unarmed? You and I have lived together for many years, and I have long regarded you as my father. How can I watch you die for me?"

"Master..." Cui En's eyes were a little moist, he turned around, raised the sleeve of his jacket and wiped his eyes.

Grass leaves can't understand, isn't it there?It was like parting from life and death.

"Squeak—" The door was pried open, and a man in black came in softly with a short knife.

The grass leaves emitted a faint green light, signaling Cui Jingxing to let go of it and not to disturb it to go out to fight.

Cui Jingxing spread out his palms tactfully.

At this moment, another white shadow flashed across the room, and with only a few clangs, the white shadow strangled the man in black with his backhand, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clang.

Through the moonlight, Cui Jingxing saw the familiar face of the white shadow, it was Cui En.

Cui En was dressed in a white jacket, and skillfully kicked the man in black's leg, pushing him to kneel on the ground.

"..." Cao Zizi silently withdrew her light, you are so fierce, does your young master know?

His young master obviously didn't know, Cui Jingxing was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, he didn't ask Cui En about his skills at this moment, but got out of bed and lit a lamp.

"My lord, spare me!" the man in black suddenly shouted, "I'm not a killer."

Cui En kicked him, and said coldly: "What is the killer doing with a knife?"

"This knife is used to slip the door and pick the lock! If you don't believe it, you can see that it hasn't even started!"

Cui En glanced sideways, and sure enough.

Cui Jingxing said: "You broke into the posthouse in the middle of the night dressed like this, don't lie to me, you are here to steal things."

The man in black nodded quickly. He wanted to get up, but he was suppressed by Cui En behind him and couldn't move, so he knelt on the ground and said: "I am the tomb robber who tipped off the news to Mr. Meng a few days ago. You are Mr. Meng's colleague. He must have gotten through with you. Just today, I found out that Mr. Meng was imprisoned in death row, but the Linhe county government is in a conspiracy, and I have nowhere to ask for help, so I have to come secretly to ask to see you."

Cui Jingxing said: "Nonsense! Lord Meng is a special envoy sent by the imperial court, how can he be put in death row?"

"Of course not." The man in black said eagerly, "but there are many people who steal their posts in this world. Some criminals in death row want to get out of their shells, so they naturally want to find a substitute. The corrupt officials of the county government also took the opportunity Change Master Meng in."

Cui Jingxing said: "Why should I believe you because you slandered the imperial court with empty words?"

The man in black was dying of anxiety. He struggled for a long time, but he still couldn't break free from Cui En's shackles, "Master Cui! I know that the way I got the news is not honorable, but the matter is of great importance. If good officials really die in vain, corrupt officials Xiaoyao, you are not worthy of the official skin you are wearing! You have read sage books for so many years, you might as well be a beggar!"

Cui Jingxing seemed to be flushed with anger, and he choked for a while, "If what you said was half a lie, I will definitely question you about the tomb robbery."

Grass leaves shook, nerd, this is a matter of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, not your business.

The man in black nodded repeatedly, "Master, can you let me go first?"

Cui Jingxing glanced at Cui En.

Cui En took off the two arms of the man in black before letting him go.

The man in black looked at the dislocated arms, and said without tears, "My lord, I really didn't lie to you."

Cui Jingxing said: "Do you have any accomplices?"

The man in black hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

Trin kicked him.

The man in black pounced forward and almost fell to the ground, he turned his head angrily, his expression froze for a moment, he looked at Cui En in disbelief, and stammered, "You, you are Cui... "

Cui En's eyes flashed coldly.

The man in black's throat seemed to be blocked, he could no longer utter a word, he turned his head slowly, and approached Cui Jingxing fearfully.

Cui Jingxing looked at Cui En thoughtfully. He had been with Cui En for many years, and he never knew who Cui En was in the past.The first time he met Trin was on death row.

At that time, he was dressed in prison clothes, and because of his young age, he was thrown into a death row indiscriminately.Cui En stood outside the cell in brocade clothes, holding a meatloaf in his hand, touched Cui Jingxing's head, stuffed the meatloaf into his hand, and carried him out of the cell.From then on, the two began to travel around incognito until they came to Suzhou and settled down.

No matter who Cui En was in the past, Cui Jingxing would never doubt his intentions. If Cui En wanted to hide it, it must be because of difficulties, and Cui Jingxing would not pursue it.

Cui En snapped: "Be honest!"

The man in black glanced at him secretly, hesitated for a long time before saying: "My lord, I do have a few companions." But he didn't explain the whereabouts of those people, and it was his job to save Meng Yin alone. He doesn't involve his companions.

Cui Jingxing said: "You stay with me these few days, I don't have many people around me."

The man in black looked at his two arms hesitantly.

Cui En said: "If you are honest and obedient, I will naturally take your arm back, otherwise your chin may not be in the original position."

The man in black shook his head quickly, he couldn't say a word that he shouldn't have said.

Cui En pondered for a while and said: "If Lord Meng was really put on death row by being stolen, wouldn't it mean that there are no trustworthy people in the whole Linhe County? Young Master, I think we should go back to Beijing and let Master Mu send others? This muddy water is really dangerous."

The man in black looked at Cui En in disbelief. He couldn't imagine that such words of greed for life and fear of death would come out of this man's mouth.

Cui Jingxing shook his head and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Meng won't be able to wait for us to return to Beijing to rescue soldiers. Counting the days, there are only a few days left before the execution of the condemned prisoner."

"But here..."

Cui Jingxing said with a smile: "Uncle Cui, I know you are worried about me. But a gentleman does what he does and doesn't. He abandons his colleagues and pleads for his life in vain. How is it different from a villain who sees profit and forgets righteousness? I will cherish this Little fate, but I won't back down easily."

If he is a villain who likes to live in a turtle shell, why bother to take the risk of being found out as a fugitive to obtain fame?Isn't it good to hide in a corner of Suzhou and open a small shop to survive?But he didn't want that, he wanted to inherit his father's behest, he wanted to write a history book that could calm the timid people in the world.

Grass Leaf looked out from between Cui Jingxing's fingers and looked at Cui Jingxing's chin. This angle is really not a good angle to look at people, but Cui Jingxing is a rare beauty. Rin couldn't help but smile, bookworms are really stupid, but they are much more pleasing to the eye than those old pedants who just talk but don't do anything.

The man in black looked at Cui Jingxing for a while, and saw that his attitude was very serious, which was completely different from those who only talked about it. He couldn't help admiring him in his heart.

Cui Jingxing turned to look at him, "What's your name?"

"Caomin has no name and no surname. I have been a wild child growing up on the top of the mountain since I was a child. Everyone calls me Wild Monkey."

"Wild Monkey." Cui Jingxing read it again, and couldn't help showing a faint smile, "You go to sleep next door, tomorrow I'll go to the yamen to find out."

Ye Hou'er didn't understand why he still had contact with the yamen, there was obviously no good person in the yamen, but he looked at Cui Jingxing, and felt that this person who looked like a fairy would never lie to him, let alone Cui En recognized him as The master's person will definitely not be a villain who is treacherous and evil.He thought he was not as smart as Cui Jingxing, so he had no choice but to fight wherever he was told.

Cui Jingxing looked at Cui En and said, "Uncle Cui, go and stay with the wild monkey. It will be dawn in two hours, and the killer probably won't come again."

Cui En glanced at Ye Hou'er, he did have some private matters to tell Ye Hou'er, his young master was always careful, but he still couldn't rest assured of Cui Jingxing, he hesitated for a long time, finally decided to finish talking with Ye Hou'er, Come back to accompany his young master.

After the two left, Cui Jingxing released the leaves of grass and said gratefully: "Thank you for saving your life last night."

Grass Leaf stood up on the table, "paced" slowly, and seemed to say in a very general style, "Efforts with little hands, what's the point?"

Cui Jingxing said: "When I was studying, I saw fairies who could transform into human forms. I wonder if you can do the same?" If he remembered correctly, he did see a green figure before he passed out.

Grass Leaf bent and pointed to a book not far away.

Cui Jingxing consciously opened the book and asked the little monster to type on it.

Cao Zizi glanced at it and clicked a word, "Heh."

"..." Your answer is so noble, Cui Jingxing couldn't laugh or cry.

Cao Zizi clicked a few more words, "What is the identity of that servant of yours?"

Not to mention that Cui Jingxing didn't know, even if he knew, he wouldn't tell a little monster he had only known for a few days. He shook his head and said sincerely: "I don't know either. My uncle raised me up."

"Ah."

When Cui Jingxing saw Cao Zizi's words, he said more sincerely: "If you don't believe me, I can't explain it."

"Ah."

Cui Jingxing didn't intend to annoy it, so he kept silent for a while and continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb: "Excuse me for being stupid, I really don't understand what you mean."

This time the leaves of grass jumped twice—"Hehe."

"..." Cui Jingxing felt more and more similar to Mu Shufeng's sarcasm, but even if Mu Shufeng was proficient in formation techniques, he couldn't really control a little monster, right?What's more, this monster doesn't look very tame.

One person and one monster were silent for a long while, then Cui Jingxing suddenly asked: "Have you ever recognized Mr. Mu Shufeng? Mr. Mu is an expert in Yin-Yang metaphysics, and his demeanor is from ordinary people. I think you will have a lot of conversations with him."

Cao Zizi paused for a moment, then jumped to a word, "Huh." Unexpectedly, the nerd didn't scold him behind his back.

This is a modal particle, the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees wisdom. Cui Jingxing automatically summed it up as disdain according to the little monster's past style.

The leaves of grass flew up, curled one of Cui Jingxing's hair, and pulled him to the bed, it was time to sleep.

Cui Jingxing saw how difficult it was to fly, he grabbed it back with a smile, then went back to bed and lay down, he put a strand of hair on his chest.

Grass Leaf skilfully jumped onto the strand of hair and lay down, and then hooked the grass tail, pulling up a few hairs to cover its body.Cui Jingxing's chest was the warmest and his hair was the softest.

Really enjoy it, Cui Jingxing saw it so comfortable, he wanted to lie on it and try it.

It was already halfway through the night, and the Mu Mansion far away in the capital was still brightly lit. In the courtyard, more than a hundred beauties of various colors sat in front of the steps, half-lyed on the eaves, or stood under the trees and leaned on the branches. , they sang and danced, and the breeze was warm and full of vitality.

Mu Shufeng sat on the steps, his eyes suddenly moved slightly, and his expression gradually became serious. Meng Yin was actually arrested?There was such a big mistake in Linhe County!

Mu Bai with white beard and white hair was sitting next to him, neither of them had any intention of drinking and having fun.

"Cui Jingxing and the others are in trouble." Mu Shufeng said.

Mu Bai had a deep impression on Cui Jingxing, and couldn't help but worry after hearing it: "Is it because of Linhe County?"

"Not bad." Mu Shufeng said, "I plan to send him two helpers."

"That's good, lest that nerd can't get out of Linhe County." Mu Bai suddenly said: "This time the flood has caused a lot of damage."

Mu Shufeng said: "I have sent someone to solve it."

"Make up for a dead sheep?"

Mu Shufeng said: "There are so many officials below, it is inevitable that some people will obey others."

"You once said that you could create a peaceful and prosperous world of Haiyan and Heqing."

Mu Shufeng looked at him and said, "I'm doing it."

Mu Bai looked at Mu Shufeng who was still in a daze, and felt sad. In fact, he was not Mu Shufeng's biological father, but he also watched Mu Shufeng grow up. He could see how this child tried hard to adapt to this world. However, after all, they are of different minds.This child has his own ideals, but Mu Bai only lives for one person, and that person is his late master.

It was his master who said he wanted a peaceful and prosperous world, so he chose to cooperate with Mu Shufeng. He came to be Mu Shufeng's father and gave Mu Shufeng an identity. At the same time, he must not destroy Mu Shufeng's everything. action.

Mu Bai said: "I believe in your words, so I am willing to wait for you. You said that the master may prefer to see a peaceful and prosperous world rather than revenge, so I am willing to wait for you to realize the peaceful and prosperous world in his heart. But you If I can't do it, I can't do it either, so I can only use my way to avenge the master."

Mu Shufeng looked up at the starry sky and was silent for a long time. In fact, sometimes he doubted whether he could do it, but he was unwilling to give up.Dredging the wind, there is a saying in medical books, those who dredge the wind will dispel wind evils.That's why he took the name,

Mu Shufeng suddenly said: "In fact, I have always regarded you as my own father."

Mu Bai remained silent.

Mu Shufeng picked up a jug and took a sip on his back. After a while, his face turned rosy.

Mu Bai patted him, "Go to sleep in the house."

"I can not move."

"Dizziness?"

"I'm grass." Mu Shufeng cried with a mournful face.

"..." Mu Bai was speechless for a while, raised his hand and called two people to carry Mu Shufeng in, "If you can't drink, don't drink next time."

When the night passed, Cui Jingxing was already sound asleep, the grass leaf jumped up quietly, it flew to the window, and ran out along the gap.

The nightingale landed on a branch and was singing. It turned its head from time to time and combed its uncolored feathers with its pointed beak. It loved all beautiful things. In its eyes, all things were beautiful, including the dusty feathers on its body. fluttering feathers.

Suddenly a blade of grass fell silently on Nightingale's head.

Nightingale knew that the only unhappy creature in this world was coming, so it called out, "Boss, what's wrong?"

Xiaocaoye stood still for a while, "When will you change your accent?"

"What happened?"

Little Grass couldn't understand this kind of bird's head, so it simply gave up, "This place is not good."

"What's the matter?"

Xiaocaoye continued: "Go to the death cell and see if there is any trace of Meng Yin, and if there is a way to get him out."

"Okay, then boss, I'll go first."

"Yeah." The little blade of grass jumped down, stood on the top of the tree for a while, and finally flew back along the window.As soon as it entered the room, it saw Cui En lying on the ground, and now it knew that Cui En's skills were good, so it was more cautious when flying back, so as not to disturb Cui En.

Linhe County is in turmoil, and the capital is not very peaceful.Mu Shufeng sobered up early in the morning, and he immediately summoned several officials to the Shangshu Mansion to discuss matters. An hour later, several orders were sent from the Shangshu Mansion, and another team was sent to Linhe County. Hundreds of officers and soldiers.

Before leaving, Cui Jingxing gave a secret order to the leading officials, "Scatter them into pieces outside the city, contact Cui Jingxing secretly, and act according to circumstances at any time."

Cui Jingxing couldn't sleep for too long because he had something on his mind, and he had already finished grooming when the Shangshu Mansion in the capital thousands of miles away was discussing matters.Today he is still wearing a wooden hairpin, and at the end of the wooden hairpin is embedded a lifelike little blade of grass, which seems to be real and will sway in the wind, making Cui Jingxing more vivid.

Cui Jingxing walked towards the door with his head held high.

Standing at the door, Wild Monkey was stunned for a while when he saw Cui Jingxing's attire, and then quickly followed after being kicked by Cui En, "Lord Cui, wait for me!"

When the girls on the street saw Cui Jingxing, they couldn't help "coincidentally" passing by him again and again.A good-looking person, even a man, couldn't help but take a look at him. Cui Jingxing felt a little helpless when he kept looking at him intentionally or unintentionally. He had to lower his head again, and resumed his usual gait with sleeves folded and head bowed.

The grass leaves were a little annoyed, it emitted a faint green light that covered Cui Jingxing's face, this green light could not be seen by mortals, in the eyes of mortals it was just a layer of mist on Cui Jingxing's face.As a result, fewer people came to see it, and the leaves of grass were much more at ease.

Cui Jingxing didn't understand the connection, he walked for a long time and finally reached the county government office.

The wild monkey wiped the sweat off his head from behind, and muttered in a low voice: "Oh, Mr. Cui is good everywhere, but his legs are too slow, and I'm exhausted."

Cui En suddenly turned to stare at him.

Although the wild monkey didn't know what was going on, he closed his mouth wisely.

"Hey, Master Cui!" A yamen servant saw Cui Jingxing approaching, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "Master Cui, please sit in the back yamen first, I'll go and call some adults over here."

Cui Jingxing said: "Thank you."

"You are being polite."

Not long after, several adults hurried over and saluted Cui Jing one by one, "Master Cui."

Cui Jingxing said: "The killer suddenly appeared in the posthouse the night before yesterday. I was very worried about Mr. Meng's safety, so I paid special attention to it, but Mr. Meng did not return all night last night."

Master frowned and said, "Master Meng didn't come to the county government yesterday."

Seeing that the first sentence was robbed, the master clerk hurriedly said: "Why don't you hurry up and ask Catcher Zhao? Master Cui, don't worry, Master Meng is an official of the court, and no one will dare to touch it." he."

Cui Jingxing knew that the master book was just a scene of climbing the pole repeatedly, so he didn't push him back, but nodded perfunctorily with the unabated worry on his face.

After a while, the head catcher came over and bowed to Cui Jingxing: "Master Cui, I have asked my subordinates to look for it. I believe there will be news soon."

Cui Jingxing said: "Who was Master Meng with yesterday?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Mr. Meng really didn't call any of them yesterday.

Cui Jingxing asked a few more questions before leaving the posthouse with a worried face.

Wild Monkey ran up to Cui Jingxing and said, "Master Cui, what do you think?"

Cui Jingxing said: "I don't know, they refuse to tell the truth."

Is not this nonsensical?If he was willing to tell the truth, he wouldn't have arrested Master Meng. Ye Hou'er doubted whether he underestimated his IQ or overestimated Cui Jingxing's head.

"Wild Monkey." Cui Jingxing said suddenly, "Do you remember those people I just asked?"

Ye Hou'er is a tomb robber. I dare not say anything else, but he has a good memory. He knows all the antiques of what year and the location of the tomb. "Remember, my lord, what are your orders?"

Cui Jingxing said: "I want you to help me check their family background and interpersonal relationships, including Hequ Ling Zhang Yuan."

Cui En said: "Master, do you suspect that the officials in the entire Linhe County may have problems?"

"You can't say that." Cui Jingxing shook his head and said, "If it is true that the whole Linhe County has a problem, how can Zhao Cheng, the magistrate of Linhe County, be alone?"

Wild Monkey said urgently: "Lord Cui, why don't we save Master Meng first?"

Cui En glanced at him, "Cut the grass to get rid of the roots, if you don't get rid of the grass, do you think you can save Master Meng who is trapped in the grass?"

Ye Hou'er scratched his head, he really couldn't understand, so he simply gave up thinking and listened directly to Cui Jingxing's arrangement.

The three of them came to a small noodle shop.

Ye Hou'er patted the table, "My lord, you can order whatever you want, I'll take this meal."

"Use your grave digging money?" Cui En glanced at him.

The people around looked over.The wild monkey hurriedly apologized to the surroundings, "Just kidding, kidding."

Cui Jingxing ordered a few dishes, looked at Xiaoer and said, "I heard that there was a flood in Linhe County a while ago, and the county magistrate was washed away?"

Xiao Er smiled and said, "Guest officer, you are really well informed."

"This kind of good county magistrate is really rare."

Cui Jingxing's words aroused the sympathy of the surrounding people, and the surrounding people praised and lamented the deeds of the county magistrate Zhao Cheng, and finally there was a burst of regret.
