The moon is bright and the night is still young

Chapter 7

How could Mu Xiwen not understand that supporting the powerless and powerless Gao Qi to participate in the battle for the throne is undoubtedly a gamble with a near death toll, if he wins, he will fly like a dragon, and if he loses, he will never recover.

Gao Qi's mother was just a little concubine, who lived her life submissively and cautiously, and finally passed away with humility, and her own son Gao Qi was not welcomed by everyone.Due to premature birth and frailty, coupled with the fact that his mother and concubine were not favored and passed away early, everyone around Gao Qi, including his biological father, thought that this son was difficult to achieve since he was a child, and they always treated him coldly.

But Mu Xiwen wanted to gamble.

For the agreement of pulling each other's hooks.

Mu Xiwen's father, Mu Weixiong, was a veteran of the country. He had spent half his life at the front of the battlefield, holding military power and a high position.This five-year-old general never takes concubines, and there is only one wife in his family. The two are loving and loving, and their husband and wife live in harmony. They gave birth to a daughter named Xiwen.

Although Xiwen is a girl, she perfectly inherited her mother's appearance and demeanor and her father's majesty. Since she was a child, she has been interested in the cold weapons in her father's arsenal, and like her father, she likes to wield knives and guns. The general was both surprised and delighted, and cherished this precious lump even more.Mu Xiwen practiced boxing and kicking kung fu with his brave and skilled father since he was a child. He was able to wield two swords at the age of five, a long tasseled spear at the age of six, and a long whip with ease at the age of seven.On Mu Xiwen's eighth birthday, Mu Weixiong specially entrusted Ji Guo's best weapon master to create a soft whip for his beloved daughter with a whole body of indigo and green stone hole feathers inlaid at the joints of the handle. When swung, the whip will bloom like a lotus flower in full bloom. The hidden thorns, those who hit will be stripped of their flesh and bones.As if he had found a treasure, Xiwen fastened a long whip to his waist every day as a self-defense weapon.

According to the practice of King Ji's Palace, important ministers and their families will be invited to the palace for the banquet on the monarch's birthday.Every year, Mu Weixiong would bring his wife to the banquet. In the past, Mu Xiwen would use various reasons to refuse to go with his parents. After all, to children, this kind of adult's banquet sounds boring.Since the age of eight, Mu Xiwen has become more sensible, so he no longer refuses such occasions, and actively asks to participate. He is so moved that Mu Weixiong, a tall and strong warrior, hugs his wife and weeps with joy. feast.The magnificent hall in the palace, the scenes of singing and dancing, the cumbersome birthday celebrations and the politeness of other adults made Mu Xiwen more and more impatient. After eating, he quietly slipped out to hide in the garden to catch crickets.

After chasing a fat cricket for a long time, there was a small noise from the rockery not far away, Mu Xiwen curiously put down the cricket in his hand and ran over to join in the fun.Behind the rockery, several boys who looked taller than Mu Xiwen were surrounding a boy curled up on the ground, punching and kicking him, still taunting and insulting him non-stop.Mu Xiwen went in and out of the military camp with his father, and was used to the dignified competitions in the military camp. He hated this kind of despicable behavior of bullying the few with the most, so he rushed forward with a loud shout, and threw the boy who was the most aggressive among them to the ground.

"Going back to the palace for the first time really opened my eyes to this girl. I didn't know that this kind of style of bullying the few is prevalent in the palace." Mu Xiwen raised his head and chest to protect the boy on the ground, with an undisguised expression on his face. Full of contempt.The boy who was thrown got up, his clothes were already covered with mud, and he looked funny and embarrassed.Seeing that it was a girl who put herself in such an embarrassing situation, she immediately became angry from embarrassment, and pointed at Mu Xiwen's nose and scolded: "A little girl is too tired of filming, what does it have to do with you if we teach you a lesson! Young dog Just meddle with the rat, or you'll end up with him!" "Since he's in poor health, you know he's in poor health and still bully him like this, no matter how despicable or shameless!" Mu Xiwen rolled up his sleeves, Taking off the whip her father gave her that was pinned to her waist, "Want to fight? Come on, my girl will accompany you. If you have the ability, give me a whip to bully you as much as possible. Let's see how many of you can bear it." "Hey! Are you looking for a movie, you stinky girl?" The boy in the lead was about to rush up, his veins were throbbing, and a shorter boy next to him saw the long whip in Xi Wen's hand, and seemed to recognize the long-browed opponent in front of him holding a long whip No matter who the little girl was, she hurriedly grabbed the one who was about to make a move, and whispered something hastily in his ear. The red-faced and thick-necked boy first looked astonished, and then his face turned pale.

Who else could be a girl holding Kong Ling's long whip and appearing in the palace garden to see injustice, except for Mu Xiwen, the spoiled daughter-in-law of the general of Zhen Guo!

Guessing that Mu Xiwen's skill and the power of the long whip in her hand should be well known, the boy's brow was covered with cold sweat. Feeding koi in the lake next to it is really effortless.But all the ruthless words have been released, and it would be a shame to run away in such a disgraceful manner now.After thinking for a moment, the duck's mouth was stiff, and he spat forcefully, "Bah! I'll let you go today, but next time it won't be so easy to let you go! Gao Qi, you big man, still rely on a little girl to protect you. It’s just like your mother.” After finishing his tongue, the boy glanced at the whip that was about to be swung in the next second, and hurriedly ran away with a few people on their feet.
