Stunning weapon

Xiliang Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Mo Zhiyuan sat there, the table was full of memorials, after approving the last memorial, he stood up, stretched himself, took the hot tea from Eunuch Chen, took a sip, and said: " Xiao Chenzi, tell me, is your trip going well?"

Eunuch Chen saluted slightly and said, "Going back to the emperor is not going well."

Eunuch Chen's answer seemed to be within Mo Zhiyuan's expectation, his expression did not change at all, he still said flatly: "Why is it not going well?"

"The slave is negligent." Eunuch Chen said in a low voice, "The slave didn't find Xiao Yanzi's whereabouts, and the corpse was dug up and looked at. It was indeed cleansed. It's just that I haven't seen him for so many years, and the slave can't be sure, then Is it him?"

Mo Zhiyuan shook his head, sighed softly, and said: "Back then, you and Xiao Yanzi were my right-hand men. Especially Xiao Yanzi, although his martial arts were not as good as yours, he was very resourceful. I still can't figure it out. He himself asked to go to Qi Palace as an internal response, why did he betray me before I ascended the throne, I really want to ask him."

Eunuch Chen bowed his head and remained silent, with a look of regret on his face. Back then, he and Steward Wang followed the crown prince, who is now the emperor of Xiliang, Mo Zhiyuan.Eunuch Chen is in the light, while Butler Wang is in the dark. Butler Wang was a young eunuch at the time. In order to help the prince deal with King Qi, he took the initiative to ask to go to Qi Palace as an internal response. He went there for five years. During this period, There are many things that rely on his important information.

Even the fire in Prince Qi's mansion was caused by him alone. Therefore, Mo Zhiyuan trusted him very much, but he never expected that at the last moment, he would defect away with Prince Qi's son.

Eunuch Chen and him had a good personal relationship back then, and they had been sad for several years because of this.Listening to Mo Zhiyuan's talk at this moment, the past seems to be in front of him, and the scenes flashed by, making him sigh, and he couldn't help but habitually pinched his orchid fingers to stroke his hair at the temples.Mo Zhiyuan saw it in his eyes, and frowned. He was very displeased with Eunuch Chen's action, and he had said it several times before. Therefore, Eunuch Chen was very restrained in front of him, but the habit of many years, always It will show up inadvertently.

"Forget it, it's all over." Mo Zhiyuan sat back in his chair and said, "Is there any news from your son?"

"I'm not sure yet, but I already have some clues." Sensing Mo Zhiyuan's displeasure, Eunuch Chen hurriedly put his hand down, and said, "The people in the Falcon Hall have already noticed the slaves, and I'm afraid they may have something to do with you." Therefore, the servant did not continue to investigate."

"Falcon Hall." Mo Zhiyuan said with a cold face, "You're right. Liu Chengqi couldn't wait any longer. Last time he was a fake son, he couldn't sit still. If he notices it, it's true. There will be a lot of trouble. Now, tell me about your results."

"Yeah!" Eunuch Chen nodded, smoothed his thoughts, and said, "When Xiao Yanzi fled to Yan Kingdom, he was indeed holding his son in his arms, so it can be concluded that the son must be in Yan Kingdom. And these years, he has the most contacts , and the age of that son, there is only one person." At this point, Eunuch Chen paused, wanting to make a fool of himself, but seeing Mo Zhiyuan staring at him closely, he dismissed the idea and continued. : "This person is Mei Shichang's only son, Mei Shaochuan, who is also Mo Xiaochuan, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army handpicked by the emperor."

Mo Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Even if they are similar in age, what does that mean?"

"The emperor doesn't know something." Eunuch Chen said again: "Then Mei Shichang lost his wife in his early years and had no heirs, and his subsequent wife was married 15 years ago, and she died of dystocia nine years ago, leaving only one son. Female. Of course, this is not enough to prove that Mei Shaochuan is the eldest son, but he is the most likely person that the servant is investigating now."

Hearing this, Mo Zhiyuan tapped his fingers lightly on the table. After a while, he picked up the tea and took another sip. Feeling a bit cold, he shook his head and said, "Xiao Chenzi, go get a cup of tea. .”

Eunuch Chen was stunned for a moment. He was talking about such an important thing, but the emperor asked him to change the tea. He was a little overwhelmed for a moment, and after a pause, he hurriedly took the teacup, and replied respectfully: "Yes!"

Wait for him to walk out the door.Mo Zhiyuan said again: "Forget it, I'm a little tired, rest for a while, you don't need to wait on me. Put this matter aside for now, and then talk about it!"

Although Eunuch Chen was full of doubts, he didn't dare to say anything more, nodded slightly, and said: "I understand." After saying that, he backed out.

After Eunuch Chen left, Mo Zhiyuan closed his eyes, and Mo Xiaochuan's appearance appeared in his mind. He had already seen Mo Xiaochuan on the competition stage of the Forbidden Army, and felt that Mo Xiaochuan's appearance was very familiar .Therefore, the reason why he couldn't help standing up that day was because Feng Wan and Huang Ping on the field were knocked off the stage by Mo Xiaochuan, allowing him to see Mo Xiaochuan's face clearly, but he was not shocked by Mo Xiaochuan.

Mo Zhiyuan, the emperor of Xiliang, would not be moved by a person's martial arts level, even if he is a master of the way of heaven, he may not be able to do it.Although Mo Zhiyuan already agreed with Eunuch Chen's words, somehow, the facts seemed to be in front of him, and he suddenly flinched, as if he didn't want to know the exact answer right now.

Now in the ancient tomb, the trapped Mo Xiaochuan didn't know that he had become the emperor Xiliang's attention.

After being trapped for a whole day, the water on his body was almost drank, and the rest was some air-dried meat. People in this era have no good measures to preserve food. Most of them use salt, so this The food is basically fed with salt. Although the taste is good, if you eat too much, it's like eating two big pieces of salt, which makes you thirsty and unbearable.

He and Xiaoyao have tried many methods, the boulder is covered with sword marks, the result is the same as the situation in the first ancient tomb, these stones are very strange, as if they are harder than steel, even if they are sharp Even the Big Dipper Sword can't be broken.

Mo Xiaochuan sat leaning against the stone wall, Xiaoyao sat beside him, both of them stared blankly at the headspace, neither of them spoke.

After a long time, Mo Xiaochuan said, "Say, will we die here?"

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded.

"Are you so unconfident?" Mo Xiaochuan was a little surprised, and turned to look at Xiaoyao, only to see that her face was full of tears, and she didn't know when she started crying.Mo Xiaochuan teased and said, "No, our chivalrous woman was scared to cry by a few stones?"

If in the past, Xiaoyao would definitely refute a few words, but today she is a little abnormal, she wiped away her tears, shook her head, and said, "Do you know why I am afraid of wolves?"

This Mo Xiaochuan really didn't think about it, he couldn't help but asked in a daze: "Why?"

"My mother was eaten by wolves." Xiao Yao said slowly.

These words fell into Mo Xiaochuan's ears, making him speechless for a while.

Xiaoyao suddenly smiled, and said: "Anyway, we are going to die, so it's okay for you to know. I was five years old that year, and our Zhongyingmen made enemies because of digging up ancestral tombs. Dad took me and my mother to visit relatives. I was ambushed on the road. He was one against four, and asked my mother to lead me to go first. My mother led me to escape for two days, and finally got rid of the pursuer. At that time, we hid in the tomb, and when we came out, we met Wolves. My mother pushed me into the tomb, sealed the robbery hole with a stone tablet, and led the wolves away..." Xiaoyao shook her head and smiled bitterly, and said: "As a result, she never came back after she left ..."

Mo Xiaochuan didn't know how to interrupt, but just listened quietly.

Xiaoyao went on to say: "I was terrified in the tomb at that time, my mother didn't let me call her before she let me in. I didn't dare to make a sound, but after waiting for a day, I couldn't bear it anymore. Called her loudly, but no one agreed at all. Two days later, my mother left me with food. I was very hungry, but there was only a rotten corpse in the tomb... "

When Xiaoyao said this, she kept silent and turned to look at Mo Xiaochuan.Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help swallowing, and subconsciously thought of what happened next.Thinking that Xiaoyao might have eaten carrion corpses, and that he had eaten at the same table with her, and even shared the same cup, his stomach felt unspeakably uncomfortable...
