Traitor

Chapter 198 Dreams Are Lost Memory Fragments

"It's so stupid." Mu Baili let out a long breath, "Even if the country of Tilan is destroyed, do you think those rebels from Daye and Huanglan can rush into the capital in such a short period of time? To put it mildly, if a The guard has such ability, how could he save you instead of saving his own emperor and queen?"

Xue Lan really didn't think about it, and she hasn't thought about it until now.

"You mean, Master, he—" Xue Lan gasped, "Who is he?"

"Shouldn't I ask you this question? Since you can do so well, you must have stayed by his side for a long time." Mu Baili narrowed his dangerous eyes and stared at Xue Lan coldly.

"I—" Xue Lan pursed her lips, "I lived in the valley at the time, living a life isolated from the world. In the first half a year, Master often came, but later Master came not often. I just wanted to practice quickly. Kungfu went to you, so I didn’t think much about it, and just focused on studying hard.”

"Didn't you ever think that while you are studying and practicing hard, you are also desperately learning how to play chess with others?" Mu Baili has already realized that he has lost a lot, why did he lose?Because of Xue Lan's appearance, because of her containment, I didn't expect that there was someone else behind Xue Lan, so...

But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless for him to regret it.

The other party must have doubted his real identity through Xue Lan, but the lack of movement for a long time shows that the other party is not very sure of Xue Lan's choice.After all, Xue Lan has been going around in Daye for many years, and it is reasonable for a good bird to choose a tree to live in one day.

Xue Lan naturally also heard Mu Baili's implication, "That is to say, my appearance has actually exposed your identity?" She paused, "If my master——is a traitor, then, then you Is it also dangerous? Taking a step back, the traitor is by my side, probably dormant in the capital? Who is this traitor?"

Mu Baili snorted coldly, "It's only now that I think about it, isn't it too late? From now on, the word Ran Heng is not allowed to be mentioned again. From now on, you will be Mrs. Qiansui, and this seat will be nine thousand years old. Death doesn't change the fact."

"I understand." Xue Lan nodded, "Don't worry, I will never be reckless in the future, I will ask you first if I have anything to do." She let out a long breath, "Today you tell me so A lot, in fact, there is still something to say? Outsiders are known as the admiral of the East Factory, and Chitose is ruthless at the court. I thought you would not make fun of my life because of me, so..."

Xue Lan frowned slightly, "What do you want me to do, just ask! I will do anything I can do for you, even this life. As long as you don't drive me away again, as long as you let me do it again I will do anything to stay by your side. You should know my persistence, and you should give me a chance to do something for my adoptive father and mother."

"If the traitor is really your so-called master, do you still dare to say that? When we meet again in the future, can you kill him?" Mu Baili asked.

Xue Lan sneered twice, "Why not? The kindness of my adoptive father and adoptive mother comes first. Although the master taught me martial arts, the purpose is not pure. Why should I respect the teacher? Even the kindness of nurturing has been deprived of repaying it." Power, why are you talking about a master? The so-called master is just a wolf in sheep's clothing. He just wants to use me to find you and deal with you!"

"I won't let anyone have a chance to hurt you! Keeping you is the last thing I do to my adoptive father and mother."

In the end, I don't know, these words will eventually become a prophecy at a certain time in a certain year and a certain month.Therefore, all promises in this world must not be taken lightly.

For Xue Lan, Mu Baili has his own plans.

"When was the last time you saw your master?" Mu Baili asked.

Xue Lan thought about it carefully, "I met him three years ago."

"What?" Mu Baili frowned.

Xue Lan thought about it carefully, "Three years ago, I stayed in the brothel in Yunyou State. I don't know why the master found me and said that he wanted me to go to the capital of Daye. I don't know what it is." Meaning, Master probably means that there are more people in the capital, and the news is better. But because I resist the imperial city of Daye in my heart, I have been reluctant to enter the capital for a long time."

three years ago?
Mu Baili thought, three years ago, he had just taken the position of the chief inspector of etiquette, and then he was starting to seize the power of Dongchang.There are some things that I really didn't pay much attention to. After all, the scale of the East Factory at that time was not as large as it is now, with eyeliners all over the world.

But hearing what Xue Lan said, someone must have suspected her identity earlier, so she went to Xue Lan specifically to confirm her identity.Did you find Xue Lan on purpose, or did you meet by chance?

Yunyou State three years ago—who was the magistrate of Yunyou State?

He stiffened suddenly. Three years ago, a plague of locusts broke out in Yunyou Prefecture. At that time, the imperial court sent important officials to Yunyou Prefecture to appease the people.Who was there?

Presumably, you can find out if you look it up!
Thinking of this, Mu Baili turned and left, walking in a hurry.

Xue Lan was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly followed.

It's easy to find out what happened three years ago. After all, the locust plague in Yunyou State was really serious back then, and everyone knew about it.The person who can destroy Tilan's country is definitely not an ordinary person. He must have a deeper purpose. So what is this purpose?Does this traitor have any contact with court officials, or is he a member of the court.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for ordinary people to know about Butterfly Gu, and it would be impossible for them to have such a great ability to provoke a war between countries.

So Mu Baili made a bold assumption, assuming that the traitor was in the imperial court.That's why that person can control everything in his own hands and not be found by anyone. After all, a traitor can hide for so many years without hearing from him, and even Dongchang can't find a trace. There is a certain reason. of.

However, if you don't check, you don't know. After checking, you are startled. Mu Baili himself didn't expect that Zhao Song, the prime minister, personally brought the relief food to Yunyou Prefecture for the locust disaster.

For a moment, Mu Baili felt his mind go blank.

When he came back to his senses, his face was already ugly.

It's Zhao Song again!

Rubbing between his brows helplessly, Mu Baili felt a headache, his brain was really hot.It seems that Zhao Wuyou needs to say hello to this matter, lest this girl is too quick-witted, and if he asks the teacher later, he has to be blamed for not saying hello in advance.

Being single has the advantages of being single, you can be decisive and have no scruples.But now?Why do I always feel like I am being controlled by others?And this illusion is also accompanied by a little joy, inexplicably feeling warm in my heart.

However, Mu Baili still admitted in his heart that Mu Baili was indeed not as considerate as Zhao Wuyou when it came to dealing with the government.

After all, she has been in contact with it since she was a child, and she is used to it, and she is very clear about Zhao Song's sphere of influence.Unlike Mu Baili, he knew the position of Dongchang in the hearts of everyone, but he was not 100% sure who in the court were the henchmen of Zhao Song and King Qi You.

Thinking of this, he thought it was necessary for him to go there.

Before going there, he had to finish the approval of Dongchang first, after all, that was a big deal.

The cabinet and Dongchang are now evenly matched, which stems from Zhao Wuyou's plan to play hard to get. After Zhao Song took over, he didn't follow Zhao Wuyou's established plan, so Dongchang gained a glimmer of life again.

Mu Baili even thought that if Zhao Wuyou didn't fall in love with him at that time, but just blindly opposed him, when Zhao Song came back, he would trust his daughter and proceed according to her daughter's established plan. Zhao Wuyou had to make a big mess out of it.

That's why Mu Baili is very fortunate, thankful that he is better off sleeping first.

At night, Mu Baili began to climb the wall again.

Zhao Wuyou stayed up once during the day, and slept for a long time, and couldn't fall asleep at night.It seemed that going to bed early was impossible, so she just sat up and looked for a book to read, holding "Historical Records" in her hand, but accidentally turned to Qin Shihuang's Benji, and her fingertips paused slightly.

In the candlelight, Zhao Wuyou let out a long breath, and looked thoughtfully at the words on the paper.Some things went through clearly in her mind, but it made her whole heart start to hurt.

If all the beads are found, should she go back?Can I go back?
If he really left, what would the people here do?What about the situation here?What will be the result if you walk away?With so many people, can she really let go?
She has lived here for 18 years. Although some memory fragments can't be remembered, this is the whole of her life.

As if a little frightened, Zhao Wuyou casually put the scroll on the desk, opened the back window, and stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the pear garden outside.When spring comes, pear blossoms bloom, and Yin Yin wins the white snow.Plum has a dark fragrance, and pear fragrance is elegant.

Letting out a long breath, she narrowed her eyes and lowered her eyelids, resting her fingertips lightly on the window lattice with some annoyance, knocking on the window lattice irritably, making a faint sound.

However, someone behind her picked up the historical records and stared at the page she opened with darkened eyes.

Startled, Zhao Wuyou quickly turned around, she opened her mouth to stop her, but it was too late.Mu Baili was staring at the page she turned with great interest, and glanced at her thoughtfully.

From Mu Baili's point of view, Zhao Wuyou's expression was a little weird, as if he didn't want him to see this.

The so-called coincidence is when you are in a panic, but it catches you off guard.

"It's all right, why are you just looking at these?" Mu Baili sat down and continued to check.

Zhao Wuyou still stood at the window, since it was too late, there was no need to stop him.Otherwise, the more nervous you are, the more Mu Baili will feel that there is a problem.Sighing lightly, Zhao Wuyou said, "It's just opening it casually!"

"In a bad mood?" he asked without looking at her.

"Who said that?" She rubbed between her brows, "It's just a headache!"

"Is it because Jian Yan is getting married?" Mu Baili asked casually.

Zhao Wuyou rolled his eyes and turned his back to him.

Only then did he turn his head to look at her back, his eyes darkened slightly, "Why don't you speak?"

"Is it interesting?" she asked, "If you really feel distressed, should you go to Jian Yan's house and cry? Then beg Jian Yan to marry me? Or should I drop everything and walk away with him, agreeing to his promise? The mountains are high and the rivers are long, and it has become a beautiful story of a talented man and a beautiful woman? Maybe at that time, Lord Qiantose can learn from the storyteller under the bridge that I only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals."

Mu Baili snorted lightly, "I really can think about it, let's talk about it after running out of the capital."

"Why, if I really want to leave, can you keep me in Dongchang?" She replied calmly.

It was just a joke, but he suddenly accepted the truth.Immediately put down the scroll in his hand, walked behind her, pulled her body forcefully, and pinched her delicate jaw.

Looking at each other, Zhao Wuyou frowned, "What are you doing?"

"I wonder, is that true?" he asked.

"Which sentence?" She thought for a while, and then she understood, but—whether it's true or not doesn't matter.Some things are predestined and no one can change them.

There was silence everywhere, Mu Baili bowed his head and sucked her soft lips, melting all the syllables between his mouth and mouth.Zhao Wuyou suffocated in his heart, subconsciously grabbed his waist, and was unable to move as he held the back of his head tightly.

All the air was plundered by someone, and she desperately fought for the right to breathe, but accidentally fell into someone's trap, and was entangled by her tongue.

After a long time, he realized that her face was full of suffocation, and his slightly punishing nibbling was over.

Zhao Wuyou touched his slightly sore lips, "If you keep biting down, I won't have to go out to meet people tomorrow!"

"That would be even better, so that you don't have to go to Jane's house, and so and so, only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals." He was a little angry, and picked her up horizontally, "I don't worry about getting tired after standing for so long, my body is in good shape gone?"

Being held in his arms, Zhao Wuyou sneered twice, "What does it have to do with you?"

"Because I want to do something bad to Mr. Zhao, so now I have to curry favor with Mr. Zhao and make Mr. Zhao happy." He said extremely indecent words in a serious tone.

Hearing Zhao Wuyou's heart pounding, a soft fist landed on him, "Why are you such a rascal? You don't have to be afraid that I will accidentally give you a hand in the future. The next bastard, let you go around without eating?"

He stopped in his tracks, but looked at her with a smile.

In fact, they all knew in their hearts that Zhao Wuyou's body was already extremely cold, and it was very unlikely that such a thing would happen.Even, it is very likely that she will never have the chance to become a mother in her life.

"If you dare, I'll take care of you." He smiled gently, and the twinkling stars between his brows were so charming.Gently hugging her and sitting on the soft couch, Mu Baili greedily sniffed the elegant fragrance of her body, "I came here today to discuss something with you."

She froze for a moment, staring at him in disbelief.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He frowned.

"You are nine thousand years old, Admiral of the East Factory, everything is settled at once, why are you so polite today?" She teased with a smile, "Looking at Lord Qiantose, he thinks that the wife in the mansion is not gentle and considerate enough. Don't take a few concubines to warm up the cold air in the prison? Huh?"

Her ending was drawn out, and her words were sarcasm, but her tone was soft and soft, which made people itch.

Mu Baili narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "What do you mean, it smells like jealousy?"

"I can't help it, the house has been closed for too long, it will inevitably become moldy and smelly. Ferment vinegar to kill bacteria, it's better to have vinegar poured all over by others in the future!" Zhao Wuyou is not easy to provoke.

Mu Baili smiled, her eyes were full of gleam, and she was the only figure in the dark pupils, "I'm telling you the truth, it's about your father."

Eyebrows darkened, Zhao Wuyou stared at him, "My father—what's wrong with him?"

"You know about the locust disaster in Yunyou Prefecture three years ago, right?" Mu Baili asked.

Zhao Wuyou nodded, "I know, that time I originally wanted to go with dad, but I couldn't bear it, so I went back home not long after I left the city. Since then, I have never left Yun'an Temple. I have been out of the capital, and I dare not go out of the capital." It was also from that time that the doctor ordered her to die soon.

Letting out a long breath, Zhao Wuyou frowned slightly, "That's fine, why did you suddenly mention the locust plague in Yunyou State, do you want to eat locusts?"

Mu Baili knew her poisonous tongue, so he said immediately, "I'm tracking down the Tilan traitor back then."

"Aren't you going to doubt Wen Gu?" She smiled, "Because of me?"

"It's really self-indulgent." He snorted, "With Mr. Zhao's body, does this seat need to be so considerate?"

She rolled her eyes, "That's true, I'm not strong enough for Lord Qiantose to toss about, so Lord Qiantose must be merciful today, otherwise there will be no more fun."

He looked at her helplessly, why did she always have the ability to continue when something came to her?

"I suspect that this traitor may be in the Daye court." Mu Baili expressed his doubts.

Zhao Wuyou raised his eyebrows slightly, "Let me explain in advance, my father is not a barbarian, it is impossible to go to your northern border to be a traitor of the Wu clan."

"Nonsense!" Mu Baili snorted lightly, "Of course I know, but the possibilities are too great in this world, there is nothing impossible but unexpected. If the traitor is not in the court, how would Daye know about butterfly Gu?" One matter? It is not something ordinary people can do to start a war between countries."

Zhao Wuyou narrowed his eyes, to start a war, it is not enough to just provoke the courtiers, it is necessary to seduce the king's heart and let the king fall in love with him, so that he can be desperate.Thinking about it this way, Mu Baili's speculation is also reasonable, if this traitor is really in the court of Daye, then his rank must not be low.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wuyou only felt a chill down his spine.

After being in the court for so many years, she really didn't realize that anyone in the court lived with a face.People's hearts are separated by belly, but this face has to be separated by a layer of skin.

who can that be?

Or some official's mansion raised a traitor from Tilan.

Zhao Wuyou hadn't figured it out yet, suddenly her body sank, and someone had already started to feel restless, with his hands wandering around her body wantonly.Skillful fingertips, like an old horse knowing the way.Men can really learn certain things without a teacher, even to the point where they can't learn any more.In this regard, women are indeed weak, no matter in terms of physical strength or reaction speed, they are not as sensitive as men.

So in this contest of physical strength, Zhao Wuyou only lost to him.

She looked at him helplessly, like an insatiable beast, looking for his home.Carrying out the warmth of this negative distance to the end, she couldn't help but refuse.

He naturally has his ability, always able to make her change from the initial rejection to a refusal, and finally follow him ups and downs, unable to be herself.Heaven and hell are just a thought.

You are in love with heaven, and I will follow you and invite the Buddha's light all over the sky to cross you to safety.

If you want to go to hell, I will sweep the road of ghosts for you and protect you from danger.

In the end, never give up, never die.

Joy-joy each other's joy-joy, rejoice in each other's happiness, and bring out the love and hatred in this world to the fullest at this moment.I am in you, and you are in me, may this moment last forever.

But things in this world always come to an end.

Zhao Wuyou felt that he had been tossed to death once, and he walked around after the gate of hell was closed, but was dragged back by him.

In the blurred eyes, what caught his eyes was his unruly and domineering nature.He led thousands of troops, captured her fortress, became her king, and occupied all her cities.

Bending the bow and shooting the arrow, the arrow is on the string.

All of a sudden, thousands of arrows were fired, and the cavalry of thousands of horses and horses attacked the gate of the city, and the arrogant soldiers drove straight in, directly hitting Huanglong.The battle between the two armies resulted in the death of all the soldiers defending the city, and the cheers of the enemy's victory. They sprinkled this blood on every inch of the city.

One day, this city will bring new life, which is a painful and happy transformation process that every woman will experience.

Gently embracing Zhao Wuyou in his arms, Mu Baili lightly kissed the center of her brow, and looked down at her long eyelashes hanging down on her porcelain skin, with a very beautiful silhouette.The silhouette was gently blown along with his breathing.

She was so tired, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep earlier, but now she didn't even have the strength to lift her eyelids.

He leaned against her ear, gently licking her cool earlobe, "Sleep well!"

She gently curled the corners of her lips, smiling peacefully.

The candlelight flickered, warming my arms.

This scene is quiet and beautiful, but it reminds people of a sentence: If you have success than your eyes, why die, wishing to be a mandarin duck but not a fairy.

Zhao Wuyou slept peacefully, and never told Mu Baili what kind of pain she had endured during the day.But there are some things, even if she doesn't say it, he knows it.Spreading her palm open, looking at the nail marks on her palm, he understood how deep her forbearance was.

The warm fingertips gently caressed every trace of her palm, and the light in her eyes passed over the pain.He can't replace her burdens, nor can he take pain for her, it's only feasible for her to get through it by herself.

She is not a hypocritical person, so she doesn't want to say anything.

He understands, but can't say much.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Baili carefully tucked in the quilt for her.He always kept in mind that she was afraid of the cold.

Zhao Wuyou slept very well, in a trance, she seemed to hear Murong talking again, and then crying.There was a mess of crying, mixed with the sound of chaotic footsteps, and the sound of cold arrows whizzing by.

But in the dark, she couldn't see anything clearly.

She didn't know what happened.

There is only a little light in that piece of fire that soars into the sky.

Zhao Wuyou wanted to yell out, but she couldn't make a sound, so in desperation, she had no choice but to go straight to the fire.In the flames, she saw many people running, screaming and struggling in the sea of ​​flames.

Howling everywhere, corpses everywhere.

In the end, she saw the back of a man.The man stood in the flames, and gave an order coldly, "Don't leave any dogs behind!"

The moment she raised the knife and dropped it, a head suddenly rolled to Zhao Wuyou's feet, causing her to scream in horror.Opening his eyes in an instant, he sat up suddenly from Mu Baili's arms, his body covered in cold sweat, layer after layer.

Mu Baili stared at her, and saw her body trembling just now, he wanted to wake her up.But before he could speak, she woke up with a start.

Zhao Wuyou, who was awakened by the nightmare, was dull, sitting there in a circle, gasping for breath.Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and his face was as white as paper.

He gently took her into his arms and pressed her on the warmest part of his chest, "Don't be afraid, it's just a nightmare."

Zhao Wuyou hadn't recovered from the nightmare yet, and the nightmare that followed her everywhere made her very helpless, "You know, this nightmare of mine has been with me for many years, and it has become more and more clear during this time."

She paused, her eyes were a little misty, "I don't know why, I used to feel scared when I dreamed about that scene, but now I just want to cry."

She was not the kind of person who would cry easily, but she really felt very sad and wanted to cry out of nowhere.

"I don't know what's wrong with me. The only thing I'm afraid of is that one day the nightmare will come to me and come to me, but I can't bear it." She choked up a bit, and suddenly reached out and hugged his neck tightly, tightly Hugging him tightly, "Mu Baili, do you understand that feeling? There are some things that are actually stored in the depths of your memory, but you have forgotten them for a while."

"Wait until one day the memory surges, and you suddenly discover that the so-called nightmare is actually a part of you that you have forgotten, and that kind of fear will make life worse than death."

Mu Baili frowned, "You forgot something, what exactly did you dream about?"

"Sea of ​​fire." She whispered, extremely unwilling to recall that scene again, "Someone shouted at me in my dream, and I will never leave."

He was startled, "Who is it?"

She shook her head, "Except for Murong who appeared in my dream, everyone is blurry. I can't see who they are, so I feel scared. If I can see clearly, maybe I won't be so scared."

He narrowed his eyes, "I also had fire in my dream, it was the memory of when the palace was burned."

Zhao Wuyou still hugged him tightly, "We all need to be fine."

He stretched out his hand, stroked her smooth back gently, and responded gently, "Okay."

Zhao Wuyou didn't feel sleepy anymore, so the two of them simply stayed awake and hugged each other and talked.But there is nothing to chat between them, except that the government is still the government.Speaking of Huanglan, talking about his Tilan.

He said, one day I will take you back to Tilan to have a look, and I have not been back for many years.

She nodded and squeezed his hand tightly as his promise.I don't remember who said it, but the greatest trust a man has in a woman is to see his parents, and the greatest trust a woman has in a man is to give up.

So their trust has been gradually established and tends to be stable.

They talked about the incident in Yunyouzhou three years ago, Zhao Wuyou was quite clear about it, after all she had done a lot of homework for Yunyouzhou and her party.It's just that she didn't make the trip later, which made her feel regretful for a long time.

"The magistrate of Yunyou State retired and returned to his hometown last year, and now he is a newcomer with little background. After all, Yunyou State is a place of bitter cold, and there is really no luxuries, so not so many people are willing to go there." Zhao Wuyou said, "My father went to Yunyou State to provide disaster relief, only his confidant Chen Ping was with him, and he didn't bring many officials with him."

"Since he is Xue Lan's master, he should at least be a general. Among the people who accompanied him back then, there were not many generals. I remember General Wang Huan and General Li Chen—"

Suddenly, Zhao Wuyou stopped suddenly, looked at Mu Baili, and said again, "Li Chen?"

That's right, Li Chen!
The capable general beside King Qi You!
