Crows in the world are as black

In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was still dark, Wu Moxuan woke up first.The candles had already been extinguished, and the surroundings were in a daze, and what I saw when I opened my eyes was only boundless darkness.When the eyes are useless, the sense of touch becomes more acute.What she was in right now was a gentle embrace.That person's body should be colder, but after spending the night in Wumoxuan's nest, he gradually felt warm.

Wu Moxuan was always afraid of the cold, and when he was sleeping, he almost buried his entire face in the bedding, curled up, as cute and soft as a cat.But now there is an extra person on the bed, so she turned into a dodder and tied it around the soft spot.

It was broken by breathing, Li Qingsi also slept on her side at night, Wu Moxuan pillowed her arms, but his own arms were wrapped around her waist, tightly bound like a belt, even one foot He climbed into Li Qingsi's leg, hooked her and clung to her.The two of them were so tightly attached to each other, as if they were born to be so seamless.

When you wake up, you are in the arms of your sweetheart, listening to the other person's breathing and feeling the other person's body temperature. Perhaps such a happy thing can never be found in this world.

Although it was early in the morning, Wu Moxuan felt as if he had drunk too much wine.

I just hope that this moment will last forever.

But things in the world are always difficult to follow, the sky must be bright, and people must set foot on the journey.

Even though Wu Moxuan was extremely reluctant, but the governor had his own priorities, and when he was so quiet, he took her to freshen up and dress up. This time, there was inevitably a lot of ambiguity.

The sixteen guards had all risen and waited outside the door.The horses and medicinal materials are all ready, and the trip can be done immediately.

The dumb-headed young boy from the previous day was still in the inn, and when he saw Li Qingsi majesticly sitting on a horse, and the little bird Wu Moxuan crouching in her arms, his eyes were wide open, and he looked very angry .

It was the first time for Wu Moxuan to ride a horse, and he only felt that his vision was wide and novel, so he couldn't help adding some firewood to the boy arrogantly.

After all, this is just a very small incident, after some time, Wu Moxuan may not be very good at remembering it.

Although it was Wu Moxuan who suggested the rush, but when the horse started to run, once the novelty wore off, she felt somewhat regretful.Because of the rush, most of the people walked through the mountain roads, the roads were rough, and the horses jumped and bumped when they ran, which was really different from the soft and comfortable carriages.It's just that Zhao Mingxu's matter is indeed more important. Although Wu Moxuan is pampered, he is not too hard-working. He gritted his teeth and persisted all the way. When it was time to rest, he would inevitably have to tease Li Qingsi to relieve his fatigue.

In this way of traveling day and night, the original itinerary was immediately shortened a lot, and on the sixth day, the goal had been achieved.

It was a courtyard of a wealthy family, compared to a villa like Luomeizhuang, it was really inconspicuous.The Zhao family's family property is huge, and it can be regarded as one of the best in the country. The safety of Mrs. Zhao is related to the change of one side in the rivers and lakes. Therefore, there are not a few people who secretly search for and even plot evil.After Zhao Mingxu became seriously ill, he declared to the outside world that he was recuperating in the Zhao family mansion, but in reality he had already been placed in such a yard.

But although the courtyard looks ordinary, the security around it is not inferior to the ancestral house.Not only the shining knives and guns in the hands of many guards on the bright side, but also many hidden in the dark. Although they can't be seen for a while, once someone trespasses, they can see the scene of thousands of arrows like locusts.

This kind of power is definitely not something that the 18 people who are full of money can compete with.

Wu Moxuan took out a shiny silver object from his bosom, and said to the door boy, "Please convey to the owner here that an old friend is visiting."

At that time, out of the sixteen guards sent by Mu He, twelve were instructed by Wu Moxuan to hide near the courtyard, waiting for an opportunity to move.There were only four people left around Wu Moxuan, but all of them had blazing eyes and a rainbow-like aura, making one dare not underestimate them.

The little boy walked into the house with the thing, hurried out after a while, returned the thing with both hands, and said: "Patriarch ordered, please come into the courtyard."

Immediately, five servants followed behind and led several people's horses.

Wu Moxuan took the thing back, took Li Qingsi's palm and put it in, and said with a smile, "You keep it for me."

Li Qingsi glanced at it, and saw a small silver lock lying on the palm of his hand, but the size of a thumb, with some words mottled on it.The words on the lock surface are all carved in with sharp objects, the original is not deep, and many places have been smoothed over time, the year is unclear, and only the words "the fifth day of March" can be vaguely seen.

It looks like whose longevity lock it should be.

Wu Moxuan saw the question in her heart, looked back and smiled and said: "It's mine." This longevity lock was engraved with Wu Moxuan's birth date, and she carried it with her every day, even in Luomeizhuang No one has ever searched here.

The natural woman promised others that she would hand over the horoscope of her birthday to the man to calculate. If the horoscopes match, the two will become husband and wife in the future.Since Wu Moxuan had handed over his longevity lock to Li Qingsi, it clearly meant to hand over his entire life to Li Qingsi.Li Qing didn't understand human feelings, but he also knew that the small lock Wu Moxuan handed over to him was very important, so he held the silver lock in his hand and carefully put it away.

Now is not the time to have any thoughts, the group of people followed the boy through the corridor with nine turns and eight turns, Wu Moxuan secretly remembered that the boy walked intermittently and waited for everyone, and his feet walked along some kind of corridor. The established route, once someone tries to take the side road, he will always be stopped in time.

After finally passing through the corridor, the little boy led them to the main reception hall to sit down, and served good tea again.Just after resting for a while, suddenly an old steward stood at the door, bowed inside and said: "The owner of the silver lock, please follow the villain to see the master."

Wu Moxuan followed.

Li Qingsi had already got up and walked to the door, but was stopped by the steward, and said: "This girl, please stay a little longer, the Patriarch is weak and doesn't see too many people. After this girl meets the Patriarch, the younger ones will definitely attract attention." People come back."

Wu Moxuan has no martial arts, and went alone. If the Zhao family had any bad intentions, no one would be able to rescue them.Li Qingsi's face turned cold, her whole body was exuded, and the cold light appeared like a fog locked in the cold river. Seeing that she was about to attack, Wu Moxuan looked at her and smiled: "It's okay, you take a rest first, I'll be back in a while .”

Li Qingsi had been comforted a bit, but she still couldn't feel at ease and let her go alone, so she immediately said: "I'll be with her."

The steward shook his head persistently.

Now that they are in someone else's territory, they are surrounded by guards of the Zhao family, so they are not allowed to be presumptuous.Wu Moxuan smiled and said, "They won't embarrass me, have you forgotten my identity?"

Her appearance was calm and indifferent, in the eyes of the Zhao family, it seemed to remind her of her distinguished background, Zhao Mingxu should not be offended.But Li Qingsi knew that she was talking about her identity as Zhao Mingxu's biological daughter.

Tigers are poisonous and don't eat their offspring. When a person is about to die, he often attaches great importance to his children. Wu Moxuan came all the way to visit him. If he turned towards him with malicious intent, it would be really unreasonable.

What's more, in the courtyard right now, as soon as you look up, you can see many guards under the eaves in front of the corridor, and a row of bright lights on the wall and roof. It is really unreasonable for others to come in.

Li Qingsi stood where she was for a while, and Wu Moxuan followed the steward to the depths of the courtyard.

As he walked away, Wu Moxuan smiled and asked, "How long will it be before Zhao Mingxu dies?"

The steward said without turning his head: "Miss, be more careful in your words, the master is in good health, the previous illness will gradually recover, and he will be able to return to the old house in a few days."

Wu Moxuan's smile was slightly cold, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

When he arrived at a house, the old steward said: "It's right here, girl, please come in." He stood at the door, and he had no intention of entering the house, obviously he wanted Wu Moxuan to meet him alone.

Wu Moxuan didn't hesitate, walked in frankly with his head held high.

That room was not big, and there were maidservants standing around, making it even more crowded.

Wu Moxuan smelled the strong and choking smell of medicine in the room, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a man sitting upright on the edge of the bed, his sitting posture was upright, but his back was bent because of the years.He looked younger than Ren Hongyi, but he looked more haggard and tired than Ren Hongyi.

Since the years make people old, it is not as good as illness.

Hearing the movement, he turned his head, his eyes were deep and quiet.His demeanor was similar to that of Ren Hongyi, but in the same gray age, he added a bit of transparency and tranquility, which made him appear more calm and dignified.

Just by looking at it, one can see the superiority between Ren Hongyi and Zhao Mingxu. Ren Hongyi is a reckless man who grew up in the rivers and lakes. He has few volumes of poems and books. His imposing manner is not as good as Zhao Mingxu's.

No one would have thought that such a refined and dignified man would actually abandon his wife and daughter.

"Your name is Mo?"

Wu Moxuan shook his head and said, "My surname is Wu."

Zhao Mingxu let out a soft "Oh" and said, "She married the Wu family, I know."

Wu Moxuan said with a complicated expression: "You don't have anything to say?"

Zhao Mingxu's face was kind and serene: "At my age, if you have anything to say, you have to stay in the world and say it."

He has been lingering on the sickbed for several years, and recently he also knows that his lifespan is coming to an end. If he wants to say something to the deceased, he can save it and save it in the underworld; Yan Luo will interrogate.At this time, it is too late to do anything to make up for the past, but the dust has settled and there is nothing to worry about.

Wu Moxuan stared at him closely and said, "Do you have nothing to say to the living?"

Zhao Mingxu said: "The children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I will keep this family business, and they will leave the rest to them."

Wu Moxuan said: "What about the rest, the children you abandoned."

Zhao Mingxu looked at her, with a thoughtful expression on his face: "I am in this world, but Lian Er is the only one I can't forgive. She... had no children at that time."
