Brilliant Horse

He opened the curtain, soldiers were everywhere, and the situation looked very serious. He asked, "Can you tell me, the map of the military aircraft fortress, why do you want to come?"

"Qing will know in the future that there are only a few guards around you, knowing that these are too dangerous."

Mu Fanhua stopped asking, and there was a long silence in the carriage.

There was a commotion by the city gate, the soldiers were busy, the city gate was closed tightly, Li Xian took Mu Fanhua up to the city wall, but he didn't want to see his old friend.

"I've seen the general, I've seen the captain." Mu Fanhua bowed to the two father and son with a smile on his face.

Mu Zhongzhong was stunned in place, while Mu Fanchen looked very surprised, but both of them had nothing to say to him, and looked away.

"What are you doing here?" Mu Fanchen said coldly.

"I came with the prince. The captain and the general seem to be very busy, so Fan Hua will not bother you." He followed Li Xian to the other side.

"Fan Hua!" Mu Zhongcheng shouted suddenly, "That's not what I meant..."

"It's not what you meant, who meant it? Could it be mine?" Without turning his head away, he sneered, "Forget it, you don't owe me anything now."

With so many lives in the ancestral hall, it was a wake-up call for them.

"By the way, General, Huhu's caravan is about to enter the capital today, and I have been ordered to meet you here. The general's affairs should be dealt with quickly, so don't delay the caravan."

Li Xian took Mu Fanhua to the other side of the city wall, clapped his palms several times, and a group of black shadows flew up to him, all the tables and chairs were complete, there was a chess board on the table, and hot tea was brewed , let’s put some snacks on, and enjoy it better than watching a movie.

"Come on, play a game with me."

Mu Fanhua took his seat, and Aomori and the others sat on the wall and grabbed a handful of melon seeds to watch them fight on the chessboard.

"Luhua? Who told you to sit? There's nothing you can do?!" Li Xian watched Luhua also squeezed in the middle of Aomori, nibbling melon seeds like a little old man, and really started to be lazy when he wasn't doing things by his side.

"Lu Hua, did you investigate what I asked you to investigate?" Mu Fanhua also squinted at him.

"I...I..." Lu Hua pitifully put the melon seeds back on the fruit plate, squeezed out a few tears from his eyes, and went down the tower alone.

Lang kowtowed the melon seeds, looked at the castles below the city, and sighed: "That child's life is miserable."

"Yes." Aomori echoed from the side.

Mu Fanhua grabbed a handful of melon seeds, crossed his legs and looked at the scenery outside the city in a daze, Li Xian knocked on the table to get him back to playing chess.

"Qing."

He picked up a chess piece, looked at the board, and asked, "When does the play start?"

"When the caravan enters the city."

"Ah."

When the chess pieces fell, Mu Fanhua started knocking on the melon seeds again, while Li Xian shook his head vigorously.

"Qing's way is counted, every step is sharp, this king admits defeat."

Mu Fanhua sneered, turned the chessboard upside down, swapped Li Xian's pieces, and made another move.

"Tie."

Li Xian did it on purpose. He knew it was possible to draw, but he insisted on admitting defeat. He really couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

"Ding ding ding—" a bell rang, and Aomori looked outside the city wall, where a group of camels and men were walking towards the city gate.

"The caravan is here." He and Lang put down the melon seeds in their hands, holding the sword tightly.

Mu Fanhua pressed their hands down, and said: "Why are you nervous? You don't need to fight, even if there is a fight, wouldn't there be the prince's shadow guard?"

He looked at the caravan below the city. The setting sun stretched their shadows, and the bells on the horses and camels rang sweetly as they moved.

"County Master! County Master!" An eunuch hurriedly ran down the road, tripped over a few stones on the road, but still grabbed the whisk and ran towards a plain-clothed woman in the hall.

The woman put down the pen in her hand, raised her head in doubt, and said coldly, "What's wrong? You broke the rules so much."

"Hey, county lord, you still have the mood to say this!" The eunuch raised his orchid fingers and pinched his throat, pointing to the door, "I heard that the general killed Mrs. Xiao!"

"What?" She slapped the table and stood up, "Are you sure?"

"There's someone in our house at the city gate, that person really saw it~ the general shot him to death himself!"

"Why?!"

"It seems that the map of the military aircraft fortress was stolen by Mrs. Xiao, county lord, you haven't been out of the palace gate for a few days?" The eunuch poured himself a glass of water and took a breath.

Mu Hongling suppressed the breath in her chest, threw the paper in her hand on the table and hurried back to the General's Mansion on a bay red horse.I have been dealing with Huanyue's hidden piles in the palace for a while, and this happened in just a few days.

"Drink—" She raised her horsewhip, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Standing on the city wall and looking at the pool of blood on the ground, Mu Fanhua sighed in his heart, but there was a faint smile on his face.He put down the teacup in his hand and patted the dust off his body.

"It's over, let's go."

"Oh...it's too late today, let's go back to our houses." Li Xian clapped his hands, and the black shadow flew out again, taking away the tables, chairs and tea.

Mu Fanhua got into the carriage, opened the curtain, and kept his gaze on the bloodstain. The moment Xiao Jingjing died just now was really mixed with joy and sorrow.

I remember that when the city gate was just opened, the sound of horseshoes was heard in the city.

A man hugged Xiao Jingjing and roared past, trying to break out when the caravan entered the city.But who is standing on the city wall?General of the town.Is the city gate easy to pass?

With a big wave of Mu Zhongcheng's hand, many guards appeared from the houses on both sides, and they released the ropes, but they escaped.Until the last moment, he made people into a human wall in an attempt to capture him alive.But the man rushed over regardless.

Li Xian asked a group of archers to wait on the city wall. The bow was fully drawn, and there was only one order, and the sky was raining arrows.

He remembered that Mu Zhongcheng seemed to say this, "Xiao Shi is my wife, what is the prince doing!"

Li Xian replied indifferently, "Your wife is a traitor. If it wasn't for her, how could the military fortress disappear?" He waved his hand and ordered.

Mu Zhongzhong stopped again, but after thinking for a moment, he shot the arrow just as the horse was about to leave the city.The bow and arrow used by Mu Zhongzhong was twice as thick as usual, and it penetrated Xiao Jingjing and the man's chest in an instant.

There was no sound at all, only the bells of the caravan were ringing incessantly.

Mu Fanhua came back to his senses and asked, "How did the prince do it?"

"Qing is so smart, I'd better think about it for myself, some things are inconvenient to say."

"Is the man your dead man?" Mu Fanhua asked.

Li Xian didn't answer, just smiled and closed his eyes and rested on one side.

"Mu Zhongzhong is so skillful, he deliberately shot Xiao Jingjing in the chest instead of the heart, thinking that he wanted to see him for the last time. But...Xiao Jingjing seemed to... just glanced at him died."

"Heh... Couples for many years, it's not as good as a picture, just take a look at him." Li Xian sneered.

"But according to Xiao Jingjing's personality, even if she harbors a grudge, she still has to curse to have no regrets. It seems that she didn't intend to look at each other so affectionately."

Li Xian raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "How does Qing deduce what this king is doing?"

"After Ye Luhua got it, you must have copied it, and you put the original blueprint on Xiao Jingjing's body. I don't know what you did to Xiao Jingjing. Anyway, I can't speak or move. Then let your dead soldiers rush out when the caravan enters the city, my lord, did you guess right?"

"Qing is really smart. At that time, Xiao Jingjing was only half-lived, and there was no evidence for the death of the dead. Let Mu Zhongcheng investigate at ease. I am afraid that he would like to commit suicide after the investigation, right? Hah." Li Xian sneered for a while, today's drama Much more exciting than I thought.

"Brother!" Mu Hongling got off the horse and raised her head. She was covered with white silk, and the lanterns were all changed to white. She was really dead... She walked in, and her servants knelt all the way to the mourning hall , My ears were full of rustling sobs.

"The county lord..." An old woman stood on the side of the mourning hall, her eyes were crying like walnuts, "Ma'am, she..."

Mu Hongling walked into the mourning hall, and was blinded by the incense burning inside. The old lady was kneeling on the ground with white hair on her head and her eyes closed.Mu Zhongzhong and his whole family knelt in the mourning hall without saying a word.

"Brother? What's going on?" Mu Hongling asked cautiously.

But Mu Zhongcheng remained unmoved, and did not answer like a living dead. Mu Fanchen wiped away his tears and took Mu Hongling to the rockery in the backyard.

"Dad, he..."

"Did he shoot it with his own hands?"

Mu Fanchen nodded, and the tears couldn't stop hitting the ground.

"Father drew the bow for the military aircraft fortress..." He choked up.

"Can't you stop your mother?"

"A man is leading her! Both the rope and the wall are used! If father doesn't shoot arrows, the virtuous king will order someone... to shoot arrows. With so many arrows, father will definitely not even be able to see them for the last time."

Mu Hongling took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears, "You mean Li Xian?" She was thoughtful.

"Only a few people know about the picture of the Military Aircraft Fortress! If he didn't blame his mother, who else would!"

"Fan Chen, calm down. Although the virtuous king may blame him, we have no proof, and we can't do anything to him. If it's not him? What if there are other reasons?"

Mu Fanchen took a deep breath, holding back all the tears in his eyes.

"By the way, why didn't I see Fan Hua and Xin'er in the mourning hall?"

"them......"

"I asked you something!"

"them......"

"You are so hesitant, is there something else!"

Mu Fanchen closed his eyes, and told the whole story in one breath, "Mu Fanhua and Mu Xin had an affair, violated their ethics, and were expelled from the mansion by the ancestors, severing ties!"

Mu Hongling was startled, and remained silent for a long time, then Mu Fanchen continued: "Mu Fanhua almost killed the ancestor, but yesterday he let the shadow guards of the virtuous king kill more than a dozen servants in the ancestral hall! Want to speak for him?"

"Fan Hua has always been safe and kind-hearted. Maybe there is another reason for the killing spree?" Mu Hongling thought about the past. Mu Fanhua didn't even dare to kill a chicken. No one in the village knows what it is like.

"What else can there be?" Mu Fanchen's words were mixed with anger, but today he saw this cold-blooded bastard watching his mother being shot to death on the city wall as if watching a play.

"Let's not say that he let the shadow guard kill people, first explain to me what happened between him and Xin'er..." Mu Hongling leaned on her forehead with pale lips, swayed from side to side, and shook her head. Fell into Mu Fanchen's arms, "I'm too tired, first...go back to the room to rest..."

She is most aware of her body, because of Huanyue's hidden troubles, she has been without sleep for several days, and has repeatedly interrogated many eyeliners.This is like a tight bowstring, if it is stretched for a long time, it will break sooner or later.
