On a quiet night, some people fall asleep, while others cannot.

After finally comforting Tianjiang, when he fell asleep, Fang Hengxie walked to the pavilion with a teapot, and carefully wiped the stone table and chairs.This was the house of a rich family in the town. Although it was built luxuriously, it was careless. The gaps carved in the stone table were filled with melon seed shells.

When Tang Chizhou came, he saw Fang Heng leaning under the light, using an embroidery needle to gracefully pick out the melon seed shells from the gap.

"I didn't know you had this hobby," he said.

Fang Heng raised his head obliquely, and put the picked melon seed shells in the handkerchief: "The place to welcome distinguished guests should not be too shabby."

Tang Chizhou, who was about to sit down, looked up at him and said, "I am a distinguished guest?"

Fang Heng said obliquely: "You have a distinguished status and come from afar, aren't you a distinguished guest?"

Tang Chizhou's butt got stuck on the stone bench, and seeing that there was nothing wrong, he sat down completely: "The palace master has flattered him, and everyone in the government and the public know that I am a trusted confidant of the palace master Tianji."

Fang Heng smiled and poured tea: "I almost thought so."

Tang Chizhou coughed dryly, "I didn't touch a single hair of Island Master Xie."

"I'm not worried about senior brother." Fang Heng nodded obliquely.

Tang Chizhou understood the meaning of his words, and with Xie Feishi's martial arts, he was beyond his control if he wanted to move him.His tone became sharper, and he vented all the anger that Xie Fei had received: "Palace Master Fang and the prince are in the same boat, and both are prosperous, and both are damaged. Xie Island Master's actions are very regrettable. It's embarrassing the Palace Master."

Fang Heng shook his head obliquely: "My lord and I are on two boats."

Tang Chizhou's face suddenly became ugly.

Fang Hengxie continued slowly: "Just heading in the same direction."

Tang Chizhou said: "No matter what, the Palace Master should not let Island Master Xie go."

Fang Hengxie said: "He is my senior brother, and I am his senior brother. Seniors and children are orderly. He has always let me go. How can I let him go?"

Tang Chizhou was surprised and said: "Are you going to watch Mu Zhenliu bring the account book to the capital? Shen Zheng and Shengjuan Zhenglong, if the account book falls into his hands, I'm afraid the palace master's many years of management will be ruined."

Fang Heng said obliquely: "That's why I want to ask Mr. Tang to do me two favors."

"What are you busy with?"

"Find someone nicknamed 'Gourd Lady' named Hu Qiushui, and send someone to transport a batch of weapons to Beijing."

Tang Chizhou was stunned and said, "What?"

Fang Hengxie said: "One of the reasons why Shen Zhenghe was impeached at the beginning was that he allowed his subordinates to store weapons privately. After the incident happened, that subordinate committed suicide that night, and the whereabouts of the privately hidden weapons were unknown. Not pursued."

Tang Chizhou said: "You suspect that the weapon is in the hands of Shen Zhenghe?"

"Afterwards, Shen Zhenghe's confidants left the capital with their subordinates' family members. I sent people to track down their whereabouts. They chased them all the way to the southwest, and then...disappeared from the world."

"You suspect that the weapons are hidden in the southwest? No wonder you sent Master Xie to the southwest, and let me pay close attention to the movements in the southwest." Tang Chizhou had a flash of inspiration, "Is it true that you acquiesced in Shen Zheng and An Muzhenliu's placement in the Pingbo City Military Bureau? In order to inquire about the whereabouts of these weapons?"

"Mu Zhenliu is the son of Shen Zhenghe's number one counselor, and he is intelligent by nature. After his father died, Shen Zhenghe regarded him as his own. Once he arrives at the Pingbo City Military Bureau, he will certainly not be idle. As long as he sees If you have any clues, you will definitely do it. Once you do it, he, who is isolated and helpless in the southwest, can only turn to Shen Zhenghe's hidden local forces for help."

Tang Chizhou looked at Fang Hengxie who was calm and composed, his breath stuck in his chest, he couldn't get up or down!

For chasing and killing Mu Zhenliu and Xie Fei, he felt ashamed of the other party, but he didn't think that it was the other party's directing!

He patted the stone table: "But you didn't expect Island Master Xie to make a move, did you?"

Fang Heng said obliquely, "I really didn't expect that."

"Do you regret it?" Tang Chizhou gloated a little.

Fang Hengxie smiled and said, "Senior brother can meet his beloved, I am very happy for him."

Tang Chizhou sneered and said, "The words are not sincere."

"Every sentence is heartfelt." Fang Heng said obliquely, "In the eyes of General Tang, am I a cold-blooded and ruthless person who will do whatever it takes to achieve my goal?"

Tang Chizhou sized him up for a while without concealing his eyes, and said, "I can't see through you." After a pause, he added as if venting his anger, "I don't know what you're thinking at all!"

Fang Hengxie pushed the poured tea towards him and said, "General Tang believes that the road ahead is bright."

"I don't believe you, how can I believe in the way forward?" Tang Chizhou pushed the tea away, "Why bother so much for a mere batch of weapons?"

Fang Heng said obliquely: "Shen Zhenghe is a veteran of the three dynasties, and he has won the emperor's favor. He can be dismounted for the crime of privately accumulating weapons, which shows the number of these weapons. In addition, Shen Zhenghe has grown big and deep-rooted over the years. If he doesn't collect money himself, the people under him will naturally save it for him in different ways. Those things are used as military pay."

Tang Chizhou's face has changed: "Weapons, military pay...then he is..."

Fang Heng said obliquely: "Even if he doesn't want to do anything, with these two things, most people want him to do something. Otherwise, Lord Qiantose wouldn't be eager to invite him out of the mountain."

Tang Chizhou said: "But he has no one under him."

Fang Hengxie looked at him with a half-smile.

Tang Chizhou continued talking to himself: "Although he doesn't have it, others have it. No matter who he cooperates with, he can quickly form a well-equipped and well-paid army! However, things are in the southwest, which is my territory It's not easy for him to transport out the things in my mouth!"

"Easy doesn't mean impossible."

Tang Chizhou stared at him for a while, and found that he really couldn't refute what he said: "Then what do you do?"

"Find Hu Qiushui and send people to transport weapons to Beijing."

"Why?"

Fang Heng said with a smile, "Helping others is fun."

Tang Chizhou was annoyed when he saw that he was playing tricks: "Hehe!"

It was also on the road, with Xie Fei by his side, the road seemed to be smooth and smooth, the rain had stopped, a faint rainbow was hanging on the field, and sparrows were happily flying from one side of the road to the other.

Mu Zhenliu leaned against Xie Feishi's arms and closed his eyes to rest his mind. After the fatigue of the past few days was relaxed, he let it out all at once. In addition to tossing and tossing last night, when he woke up early in the morning, he felt dizzy and sleepy.

Xie Fei hugged him, feeling extremely satisfied.

There are no people from the Escort dangling around to obstruct the eyes, and there is no person from Tang Chizhou running around to die without knowing it. The fresh air, the quiet countryside, just the two of them alone, even if they are on the road, there is still an indescribable sweetness and joy in my heart .

Mu Zhenliu only woke up in the afternoon.

Xie Fei slowed down the horse and fed him dry food.

Mu Zhenliu wanted to take it, but avoided it.

Xie Fei smiled and said, "You are tired, take a rest."

Mu Zhenliu looked around subconsciously. Several farmers were weeding in the fields, and avoided embarrassingly: "I'm not so tired."

Xie Fei pulled him.

Mu Zhenliu was almost pulled off the horse, and was wrapped around Xie Feishi's arms.

Xie Fei said with a smirk: "Look, I'm too tired to sit still."

Mu Zhenliu looked at him speechlessly.

"Hey, open your mouth." Xie Fei touched his lips with dry food.

Mu Zhenliu had no choice but to open his mouth to bite, but Xie Fei raised his chin and kissed him forcefully.

Mu Zhenliu was startled and struggled.

Xie Fei held him down and kissed him for a long time before letting go.

Mu Zhenliu looked at the faces of the farmers and found that they were not paying attention at all, so he was relieved: "You..."

Xie Fei said without shame: "Who told you to eat too slowly and make me hungry first?"

Mu Zhenliu stretched out his hand to grab the dry food in his hand, and began to eat on his own.

Xie Fei took advantage of it and stopped making trouble. He quietly pulled the rein and controlled the horse's speed.

After Mu Zhenliu finished his dry food, he saw a familiar mountain blocking his way ahead, and he had a vague guess in his heart, and his voice couldn't help but jump up: "Where is this place?"

Xie Fei kissed his neck, and didn't care about being pushed away. He said with a relaxed expression: "Kongge Mountain. After crossing this mountain, you can leave the southwest."

at last……

Mu Zhenliu couldn't help but took a deep breath, and let it out slowly.
