Chapter 66: Zhao Wuyou made another move
Inside the Xunhuan Pavilion.
Yingying and Yanyan are as beautiful as jade.Standing in a row, there are gentle Jiangnan women and exotic northern Xinjiang women. Here you can always find the one you like.
The old bustard smiled and said, "You two young masters are new faces, I'm afraid it's the first time you've come to our Xunhuan Pavilion!"
"Speak up if you have something to say." Zhao Wuyou took a sip of the sake and did not look at Mu Baili beside him.
"The girls here are all carefully selected..." Before the madam finished speaking, Lu Guoan had already dropped a bag of money on the table, making a clear and crisp sound.
Zhao Wuyou put down his cup, "Stop talking nonsense, get out."
"Yes, yes, yes!" The old bustard was naturally overjoyed to meet such a wealthy young master, and happily retreated with the money.
After closing the door, Zhao Wuyou said with a smile, "You are all one of the most beauties in this Xunhuan Pavilion." She got up, and gently raised the jaw of one of the women with her fingertips, "Beauty is beautiful, but it seems that there is less... Order something."
Her eyes were light, and everyone followed her gaze and focused on Mu Baili.
"See, my master is Liu Xiahui, and he is still unmoved when he meets such a delicate beauty, which shows that your skills are still a bit inferior." Zhao Wuyou smiled coldly, "Master, do you think you don't like her?" They, why don't I call you a few more."
Mu Baili stared at her coldly, what kind of tricks does Zhao Wuyou want to play?He drank the wine in silence, and the eyelashes that were clearly visible in the dim light were slightly fluttered by the wind in his downcast eyes.
The gentleness between the lowered eyebrows made many women lose their eyes.
There is such a quiet and beautiful look on the thick and colorful face, even the women in the brothel are well-informed, and they have never seen such a beautiful man.As soon as he sat there, it seemed that the sky was full of light, and wherever he went, this light was condensed on him alone.
Zhao Wuyou has every reason to believe that if he was a woman, the emperor would have eaten him long ago.
Isn't this harem lacking the most gorgeous people in the world?
"What are you looking at?" Mu Baili looked up at her.
Zhao Wuyou's eyes narrowed slightly, damn it, he was distracted.
Cursing the dead eunuch in his heart, but still smiling like a flower on his face, Zhao Wuyou said, "Can you guys dance? Our master likes dancing girls the most, especially the slender waist. As the saying goes, the king of Chu has a slender waist, and the harem starved to death."
Mu Baili smiled, "You know it very well."
"Where is it!" Zhao Wuyou said with a smile, "It's just a man's habit."
These women wanted to stand out in Mu Baili's eyes, so when the singing and dancing started, they twisted their waists hard one by one, and seduced Mu Baili hard one by one.A pair of eyes that almost eat people, makes Zhao Wuyou only feel happy.
"Zhao Wuyou, have you forgotten why we came here?" Mu Baili turned his head and asked.
Zhao Wuyou happened to be sitting next to him, the hand holding the wine glass stopped in the air, pretending to be stupid and said in a daze, "I forgot, sir, since we are here, we can't be so ruthless, look at these beautiful women. So life is still very good, even though..." She looked down at his crotch and crotch, and then laughed dryly, "At least you have to let me relax, right?"
After saying that, Zhao Wuyou got up and hugged a woman in purple clothes, as if slightly drunk, he gnawed on that person's neck directly.
"My lord!" The woman responded softly, and the two entered the Nuan Pavilion next door.
The moment the door was closed, Mu Baili's eyes were cold, and the cup in his hand fell heavily on the table.
Lu Guoan quickly pushed open the door of the Nuan Pavilion, but saw that the curtain was half-drawn, and his legs were entangled on the bed.Because it was such a picture, Lu Guoan didn't dare to look at it any more. He just glanced at it, saw that the two were right, and quickly backed out.
"Master." Not daring to respect the governor in front of these women, Lu Guoan could only change his address, "It's still there."
Hearing this, a woman's chuckle like a copper bell came out of the room, with lightness and enchantment.With that charming and crisp voice, everyone knows what happened inside.It's just normal men and women, that's all normal!
In his mind is the image of himself and Zhao Wuyou being lingering, the gentleness of that scene, the softness that makes people intoxicated, tearing up their respective plots and tricks, but sinking ups and downs in a world that has nothing to do with love.
"Zhao Wuyou." Mu Baili stood up suddenly, his expression not very good-looking.
Pushing open the door of the Nuan Pavilion again, Mu Baili hurried forward and grabbed the man in plain clothes and white clothes.But at the next moment, he was furious, and the man in the sleeve was thrown out, slammed into the wall, and passed out immediately.
What is this Zhao Wuyou, even the woman in purple has changed her appearance.
Zhao Wuyou has disappeared.
Right under his nose, he was stolen and changed.
"Zhao Wuyou!" Mu Baili gritted his teeth, and in an instant, all the furnishings in the house were shattered by the inner force.Lu Guoan thumped and knelt on the ground, not daring to speak, those women outside scattered like birds and beasts, who dared to stay here.
Sitting down with a flick of his sleeves, Mu Baili felt that he had never been played like this in his life, and he wished he could strangle that sick child to death.
The old bustard tremblingly came over and told the whole story, the purple clothed woman was not from Xunhuan Pavilion, she just gave the old bust a lot of money, so she played a play here.In other words, the woman in purple was here for Zhao Wuyou.
Zhao Wuyou had already decided to escape here.
Mu Baili never thought: a wise man will make a mistake if he has thousands of worries.
He also thought that Zhao Wuyou was really lustful, and wanted to solve the necessity of some men here. After all, Mu Baili himself came from a man, but he didn't expect to be tricked.
"Go down!" Lu Guoan looked at the bustard coldly, and waved for people to back down.
Mu Baili got up and left, striding away from Xunhuan Pavilion.
Far away, Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, gathered the shawl around his shoulders, his face was as pale as paper.
"My lord, are you alright?" Tore off the leather cover, who else is it but Su Xi?
"It's nothing." Zhao Wuyou coughed lightly, "Hurry up and find what I'm looking for, I'll go back to the capital right away. It's not too late, don't delay." If you continue to delay, I'm afraid Mu Baili will pester people endlessly Understand.
She played tricks on him once, if there was a next time, she could hardly imagine what Mu Baili would do to her.
Mu Baili thought she was a sick child, so he relaxed his vigilance.
After all, he underestimated his opponent.
Su Xi nodded, "Young master's complexion is not good, why don't you talk about it after a while! Yunzheng and the others will arrive soon."
Zhao Wuyou was indeed a little uncomfortable, so naturally he had no choice but to comply with Su Xi's words.
Dragons and snakes are mixed in Jinling City, which is adjacent to northern Xinjiang, where there are many tribes and barbarians.The people here rely on their own strength to survive, and the weak cannot survive here.
Taking a deep breath, this small manor is not bad, Zhao Wuyou hugged Mrs. Tang to keep warm.
"When the snow melts tomorrow, it won't be so cold." Su Xi said, "My lord, bear with it."
Zhao Wuyou's lips turned pale, "I know, I'm fine, it's just an old problem."
Su Xi sighed softly, "My lord, is there no cure for this disease?"
"Difficult!" Zhao Wuyou lowered his eyes, "Forget it, let's not mention this, how much do you know about Jinling City?"
"The humble official heard that the young master was coming to Jinling City, so he asked people to visit in advance." Suxi thought for a while, "Although this Jinling City belongs to Daye, many of the residents are from the northern Xinjiang, and these people are used to using barbarians. The lord of Jinling City is Liu Hongyi, who belongs to a hereditary title. This man's father was a general under the late emperor's command, and he won the trust of the late emperor, so he was ordered to garrison Jinling City."
Zhao Wuyou coughed, "Liu Hongyi?"
"Yes!" Su Xi said, "Although this person is practicing martial arts with his father, the young master should also know that he can guard here and has not had any major incidents for so many years. It is conceivable that this person's mentality is not low. .Young master, if you meet him in the future, you must be careful."
Zhao Wuyou nodded, "I remember, what else?"
"It's not bad that our things were found here, but we don't know whether they were exiled here or sold off from our ancestors. No one in that Zhuangzi usually went there in a hurry, because they are all from the Jianghu, so unless there is a letter from Zhuangzi, otherwise I'm afraid it's not easy to go in." Suxi sighed softly, "My lord, you should know that there are rules for the people of the rivers and lakes, not like the imperial court."
"People in the court are afraid of the young master, and the young master can be invincible. But the people in the Jianghu talk about morality and love, and the court laws are just a piece of paper to them." Su Xi looked at Zhao Wuyou worriedly , "The humble official said these are not alarmist words, but just want the young master to restrain the court atmosphere, and he must be prepared in his heart."
Zhao Wuyou smiled, "When I come to Jinling City, I am from Jianghu."
Suxi smiled and said, "Young Master's words are very true, so I feel relieved. I will prepare for tomorrow's affairs and leave a mark so that Yunzheng and the others will not go in the wrong direction and act recklessly."
"Go!" For Suxi, Zhao Wuyou was naturally relieved.
Su Xi was originally born in Jianghu, and was hunted down by her enemies back then. If it wasn't for Zhao Wuyou, the two of them would have died long ago.So Su Xi made a poisonous oath, vowing to follow Zhao Wuyou in this life, life and death will not be burdened.
There are not many people Zhao Wuyou can trust, and Suxi is one of them.
Mu Baili didn't expect that Zhao Wuyou's ability is so great, even though he is a sick child, he can be described as methodical in doing things.From the moment she disappeared until the night, Mu Baili didn't find any clues about her.
A living person just disappeared in Jinling City.
Mu Baili was very annoyed by Zhao Wuyou's silence and search for traces.He has never been played by anyone like this before, and he was lost under his nose. There are so many people, not to mention that he is the admiral of the East Factory, the chief supervisor of ceremonies.
Would it be a joke to spread it out?
Lu Guoan knelt in the snow, motionless.
Mu Baili stood by the moat, looking at the snow-capped eyes, his eyes dark, "The Zhao family's hands reach the sky, I didn't expect to reach Jinling City. I really didn't expect that all the softness and struggle, It's just confusing me, witnessing her weakness and powerlessness."
Who knows, all the weakness is just an illusion.
"Master, what should we do now?" Lu Guoan did not dare to say more, "Please show me, Lord."
"Zhao Wuyou won't really come here to find the emperor's elixir of life. She must be doing it for some purpose of her own. If it's for that jade token, she doesn't have to come here in person, because the people Wuji Palace has to deal with are all It's in the capital." Mu Baili calmed down, he had vaguely guessed the purpose of Zhao Wuyou's trip, "Go and check, see if there are traces of Buddhist beads in Jinling City."
Lu Guoan suddenly raised his head, "The Governor said that Zhao Wuyou came to Jinling City because he was looking for the string of Buddhist beads?"
"It's just the Buddha beads, what's the mystery?" Mu Baili didn't figure it out either.
However, there are too many things in this world that cannot be explained with common sense, and Mu Baili will never believe that the Buddhist beads that Zhao Wuyou mobilized the crowd to obtain were just to honor his mother, or they wanted to escape into Buddhism in the future.
Mu Baili suddenly became interested in this Buddhist bead.
Lu Guoan quickly notified the spies of the East Factory to conduct an investigation in Jinling City. Of course, all of this must be carried out carefully and carefully under Liu Hongyi's nose.
Everyone in the world is greedy, and the fewer people who know something, the better.
You want to pursue the greatest benefits, but you also have to guard against the selfishness of others.
Especially Liu Hongyi, who has the mentality of being a high-ranking emperor, he is like a little emperor here, and Jinling City is his little court.Gently wiping the gem-encrusted fingers in his hand, Liu Hongyi raised his eyelids, and glanced at the spies kneeling on the ground, "You mean, there are strangers working in Jinling City?"
"Yes!" The spy nodded, "And there are more than one group of people."
Liu Hongyi nodded, "Continue to explore."
"Yes!" The spy left quickly.
Outside, Du Yuluo entered the door with tea, "So Jinling City is going to be lively again?"
"What do you know?" Liu Hongyi spoke in a low voice, and carefully put the extremely precious finger ring back into the brocade box.
Du Yurao had already brought the tea to him, "Yurao doesn't understand what the city lord means."
"Those who can be active in Jinling City, except for those who don't know how to live or die, should be dignitaries. Do you know what this means?" Liu Hongyi took a sip of fragrant tea, his eyes cool.
Du Yurao shook his head, "Yurao doesn't know."
"If these people come from the imperial court, it means that the emperor doubts my loyalty and starts looking for someone to replace me." Liu Hongyi is very crisis-conscious, "Do you think I will let this happen?"
Du Yurao didn't speak, just lowered his eyes.
The next moment, Liu Hongyi suddenly held Du Yurao's hand, "Yurao, if I have nothing, are you still willing to follow me?"
Du Yurao just looked at him and didn't speak.
"Yu Rao?" He called in a low voice.
Du Yurao saluted, "If the city lord is fine, Yurao will leave first."
"Are you still thinking about him?" Liu Hongyi clenched the cup in his hand, even though the tea was boiling hot, he didn't notice it.
Du Yurao stepped forward to leave, but he heard the sound of preparing for the battle and landing behind him, and the hot tea splashed all over the floor.
Liu Hongyi ruthlessly smashed the cup to the ground, clamped her shoulders angrily, his eyes were about to burst, "He will never even think about getting out of the prison in Jinling City, do you understand?"
Her eyes were light, and there was always that indifferent and alienated expression on her face.He leaned over to pick up the tiles on the ground, but accidentally cut his hand by the tiles, and blood gushed out immediately.
"Yulao!" Liu Hongyi was startled, he hurriedly leaned over to hold her hand, and quickly put it in his mouth.
She looked at him fixedly, but still didn't speak.Like a wooden man, but also like a walking dead.
"Does it still hurt?" Liu Hongyi asked.
Du Yurao withdrew her hand, stood up and left.
"Du Yurao!" he yelled.
She still didn't stop, and when she went out, there was standing outside Liu Hongyi's official wife - Sun Xiaoyun.
Sun Xiaoyun glanced at Du Yurao, but no one said a word. Du Yurao passed her by and drifted away.
In Jinling City, who doesn't know that the city lord and his wife are very affectionate and affectionate.The only regret is that the wife of the city lord has been married to the city lord for many years and has never had a son and a half daughter, so she married Du Yuluo as a last resort.
Du Yurao is just a girl from an ordinary family. Not many people have seen her. Her mother is from northern Xinjiang, and her father is a woodcutter.That's why Du Yurao was extremely beautiful even without makeup. After her father passed away, she and her mother lived in the mountains, and occasionally took some knitted women's reds to the street to exchange for some daily necessities.
All the tranquility is only because I met Liu Hongyi who went hunting in the mountains that day.
is broken!
"Mom!" came a childish voice.
Du Yurao squatted down, caressing her daughter's immature face, "Why is Nuan Nuan here?"
"Mom, why are your eyes red?" Nuan Nuan asked.
Du Yurao pursed her lips and gave a rare smile, "It's nothing, let's go back!"
"Did Mother tell Dad? Nuan Nuan wants to sleep with Dad tonight." The daughter pouted with an innocent look on her face.
Du Yurao's face was a little flustered, "Nuan Nuan, can't mother sleep with you? Dad is busy with work, so let's not, don't disturb him, okay?"
"Mom!" Nuan Nuan shook her head, "I want Daddy!"
Du Yuluo picked up her daughter, "Nuan Nuan, my mother will sing to you tonight, please stop making trouble, your father is really busy."
"Father!" The child's clear voice made Du Yuluo turn around suddenly.When facing Liu Hongyi, there was a trace of panic and helplessness on her face.
"Come!" Liu Hongyi opened his arms, and Nuan Nuan threw himself into his father's arms, "Dad heard what Nuan Nuan said, and I will come over tonight." When he said this, he looked up at Du Yuluo At a glance, Du Yurao seemed a little nervous.Liu Hongyi smiled at his daughter, "Nuan Nuan must be good."
The child nodded again and again, "Mother lied to me again, Dad loves Nuannuan the most."
From a distance, Sun Xiaoyun looked at the family of three, his eyes gradually turned red.She was clearly a regular wife, but in the end she seemed like an outsider.
"Madam?" The maid Cui'er called out in a low voice, "Don't be sad."
"It's nothing, the city lord is just such a child, can you not feel sorry for him?" Sun Xiaoyun turned and left.
They are a family of three, so what is she?
It really is an outsider!
The most familiar stranger.
After comforting his daughter, Liu Hongyi went directly to the study, feeling in a good mood.
Follower Tianlei said with a smile, "Congratulations to the city lord."
Every time he could go to Du Yurao's room, Liu Hongyi always had this expression.As a follower, of course he knew what his master was up to.
"There are people in the city, so keep an eye on them. Strengthen your defenses in the past few days to prevent the barbarians from northern Xinjiang from attacking." Liu Hongyi looked at the sand table in the room. Topography.
His eyes were slightly condensed, and Liu Hongyi remained silent.
"Recently, Huduo is about to make a move, and he intends to contact Gebu, so we have to guard against it." Tianlei pointed to the area outside the city, "Huduo has already camped here, and Gebu has not moved, but according to the spies' report, they privately The people below have begun to communicate frequently. What Gebu means now is unknown, but we must be careful."
"Someone in the city is also moving, let's investigate carefully and see who dares to move under my nose." Liu Hongyi looked at the sand table, "After finding out, report it quickly."
"If it's a spy, we can catch it in one go. It's definitely not a problem." Tian Lei worried, "But the city lord, what if he is a member of the court?"
Liu Hongyi smiled coldly, "What else can we do? These people accidentally broke into the important military aircraft and tried to steal the secrets of the military aircraft. They were accidentally dealt with by the military law. Jinling is adjacent to the northern border, so these military affairs are not trifling."
Tianlei nodded, "I understand."
The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. This is Jinling City, and he, Liu Hongyi, is the lord of Jinling City who holds a heavy army.The life and death of Jinling City depended on him alone, and... even if the emperor planned to send someone to replace him, who would dare to accept his power?
How could the soldiers of the three armies listen to those bullshit Beijing officials?
The security inside and outside the city began to be strengthened, and Lu Guoan also felt something strange, and quickly reported to Mu Baili.
"Master?" Lu Guoan bowed his head, "Do you want to say hello?"
"Liu Hongyi has some movement, that's naturally the best." Mu Baili took a deep breath, stood in the inn, looked at the bustling scene in Jinling City, "Order, suspend all activities. Wait for Liu Hongyi to finish all the goals, Aim at Zhao Wuyou, let's come again."
The snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit. What he has to do now is to muddy the water, and then let Liu Hongyi deal with Zhao Wuyou and dig Zhao Wuyou out.Mu Baili knew that Liu Hongyi was cruel and ruthless, if he knew that Zhao Wuyou, a Minister of Rites, was dormant in Jinling City, he would definitely not let him go.
What's more, Zhao Wuyou still has the emperor's life on him.
Liu Hongyi is suspicious, which can be used to dig out Zhao Wuyou.
But Zhao Wuyou is not a fool, although I don't know who you Liu Hongyi are, but since you have discovered my spies, then I have no choice but to stand still.
"Young Master?" Suxi entered the door, "Seven Star Villa is competing to select the owner of the villa these two days, we got the post."
"Choose the master in the martial arts competition?" Zhao Wuyou didn't quite understand the rules in the arena.
Su Xi explained, "Seven Stars Villa is a big family of the Song family. Now that the owner of the villa is lingering and sick, every clan member in the villa began to re-select a more capable owner to inherit the Seven Stars Villa. The existence of Seven Stars Villa is an honor and a kind of honor. It is a kind of protection. It must fool the clan's security, no matter what happens, the owner of the Seven Star Villa has absolute decision-making power, which is equivalent to the patriarch."
"For the sake of fairness and justice, a large number of people from the rivers and lakes will stay in the manor arranged by Qixing Villa, just waiting for the final contest to choose the owner." Suxi continued, "Young master-you probably won't be interested, in fact. A bunch of reckless people fought and killed, fighting for position with force!"
Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, "Here is a clear knife and a bright spear directly taking people's lives, and the soft knife invisible to the court is not much better."
Su Xi nodded, "Yes."
"Have all our people restrained?" Zhao Wuyou gathered his shoulders and shawls.
"Yes!" Su Xi nodded, "I have already ordered them to stay put. Even if we meet in the future, I have the right not to know."
"That's good!" Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, turned his head to look at the white clothes and the fox fur in the yard.
"What's wrong, son?" Su Xi asked.
Zhao Wuyou thought for a while, then turned around and went back to the house.
Mu Baili knows how to restrain herself, and she, Zhao Wuyou, knows better what it means to be wise and protect one's life.
By the time Tianlei led people into the manor, there was no trace of Zhao Wuyou and others inside and out.Searching all over the manor, there is no trace of clues, except for a suit of clothes and a fox-fur shawl on the table. There is only one imprint underneath, which is the exclusive imprint of Dongchang.
Tianlei was startled, and quickly put the note in his sleeve, "Search carefully for me, don't miss a single bit."
The people from Dongchang had been to Jinling City earlier, and indeed they had contacted them, and they were looking for someone.But what does this mean in Dongchang now?Came quietly, left a note and withdrew silently.
Looking at the material of the fox fur and the materials used in this suit, it is indeed not affordable for ordinary people.Moreover, the top of the clothes is still dyed with a little fragrance, like rouge and gouache.
Men's clothes have these fragrances, who else but eunuchs?
Thinking of this, Tianlei turned around and left, "Withdraw!"
Turning around, he handed the note and the clothes to Liu Hongyi. Seeing this at first, Liu Hongyi was startled, "Is someone from Dongchang coming? If so, why didn't you tell me?" Looking at the clothes again, it is indeed not something that ordinary people can wear. If you can afford it, there are only a few shops in and out of the city that can make such clothes.
Tianlei bowed and saluted, "I checked it out, and I bought it from a cloth shop outside the city. I even asked the shopkeeper what he looked like, and the shopkeeper said he had a white face, thin lips and a sword around his waist. Expressionless, just like a paper doll, it makes people feel scared when they look at it. When that person came, he didn't have a local accent, and he spent a lot of money, he only wanted the best."
Liu Hongyi frowned, "Who is here from East Factory?"
The last time Shen Yan came over, it seemed that there was no such momentum!
Eyebrows raised suddenly, Liu Hongyi gasped, "Could it be Mu Baili here?"
Tianlei was shocked, "What does the city lord mean, that the governor is here?"
"Mu Baili should be stationed in the capital, has he really come?" Liu Hongyi stared at the note in his hand, thoughtfully, "Remove all the bright whistles dangling in the street, and continue the dark whistles, but don't startle the snakes. .If Mu Baili really came, then the reason why he hid it must have other purposes."
If the imperial court sent other people over, Liu Hongyi could easily handle it, but he would just kill a few people!
But if Mu Baili really came here in person, Liu Hongyi is not sure that he can kill Mu Baili.
Moreover, Mu Baili's intentions are unknown, which is a big problem.
There are two forces, one is Mu Baili, so what about the other?Who is the other one?Is it Mu Baili's deadly enemy, or his helper?
"City Master, why don't we just do nothing like this?" I just ordered the secret sentry to watch, if something really happened, it would be...too late.
Liu Hongyi let out a long breath, "Let's leave it at that!"
It can only be like this temporarily, who is Mu Baili?That's a ruthless master, Dongchang is not easy to mess with.
Mu Baili didn't seem to get the effect he wanted, and the fluctuations in the city disappeared, which meant that Liu Hongyi might have guessed that he was in the city.It stands to reason that since he evacuated the spies ahead of time, he shouldn't have revealed his identity.Even if Liu Hongyi doubts, it is difficult to doubt himself.
The only reason probably lies in Zhao Wuyou.
Zhao Wuyou was tricky and cunning, and it really was impossible to guard against.
"Supervisor?" Lu Guoan worried, "In this way, the fisherman we agreed to benefit will become Zhao Wuyou's distraction?" Therefore, Zhao Wuyou became a fisherman.
Mu Baili took a sip of the fragrant tea, "I will settle this account sooner or later."
"Then what about Liu Hongyi?" Lu Guoan frowned, "I'm afraid we won't be able to hide it."
"If you can't hide it, just wait!" Mu Baili was not in a hurry.
If you can't hide, of course there are ways you can't hide, Zhao Wuyou, Zhao Wuyou, let's wait and see.
The cup in his hand was crushed in an instant, and the tea splashed everywhere, which also made someone's heart skip a beat.It was as if the crisp sound hit my heart.Some inexplicable touches, inexplicable anxiety and panic.
The hand holding the greeting post suddenly trembled, and the post suddenly fell to the ground.
Su Xi frowned, "My lord, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Wuyou clutched her slightly quickened heart, "It's nothing, it's just that I feel a little uncomfortable all of a sudden." She looked back and looked around, "I always feel as if someone is staring at me."
"Young master, don't worry, there is a lowly position, and nothing will happen." Su Xi smiled, "Let's go, Seven Stars Villa is just ahead."
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Wuyou nodded, rubbing his heart in a little puzzlement, what was wrong with this sudden palpitation?Before, there seemed to be no such symptoms.
Could it be that his condition has worsened?
Is it because she has been restrained from taking medicine and failed to take it on time?
This body is really getting weirder and weirder!
Looking up, Seven Stars Villa is right in front of you.
Outside the villa, people from all walks of life gathered, and it was really lively.
Zhao Wuyou and Suxi stood there one by one, handing over the greeting card in their hands.The two were very lucky, and were arranged in the west wing of the Seven Star Villa.There are quite a few people here, all of whom were invited to participate in the martial arts tournament.
Putting down the package, Zhao Wuyou stood in the yard, looking at the busy Jianghu people in the wing room.These people are all dressed in strange clothes, which are too different from those square and square people in the imperial court.These people are either vicious or graceful, but the only thing they have in common is that there is a bloodthirsty desire in everyone's eyes.
Killing is addictive.
And the first time is raw and the second time is familiar, and there will be no more feelings after that.
For this point, Zhao Wuyou felt the same way.
Turning her head, she saw not far away, two strong men were entangled with a scholar, perhaps a dispute had occurred.One of the strong men stretched out his hand and poured the tea in his hand on the scholar. The scholar did not hide, and the tea was poured on his body.The scholar sighed lightly, shook his folding fan and turned to leave.
Su Xi smiled and said, "What are you looking at, my lord?"
Zhao Wuyou looked back, "Look at all kinds of situations in the world, and see what kind of situation you are in."
"What did the young master see?" Su Xi asked.
Zhao Wuyou walked back to the house, "The two strong men on the east side are actually idiots, full of brute force. The scholar on the south side is practical, looks thin but has excellent martial arts. Only the one on the north side, always If he didn't come out, even if we came in, he never came out."
Su Xi was puzzled, "How did you see their martial arts?"
(End of this chapter)
Inside the Xunhuan Pavilion.
Yingying and Yanyan are as beautiful as jade.Standing in a row, there are gentle Jiangnan women and exotic northern Xinjiang women. Here you can always find the one you like.
The old bustard smiled and said, "You two young masters are new faces, I'm afraid it's the first time you've come to our Xunhuan Pavilion!"
"Speak up if you have something to say." Zhao Wuyou took a sip of the sake and did not look at Mu Baili beside him.
"The girls here are all carefully selected..." Before the madam finished speaking, Lu Guoan had already dropped a bag of money on the table, making a clear and crisp sound.
Zhao Wuyou put down his cup, "Stop talking nonsense, get out."
"Yes, yes, yes!" The old bustard was naturally overjoyed to meet such a wealthy young master, and happily retreated with the money.
After closing the door, Zhao Wuyou said with a smile, "You are all one of the most beauties in this Xunhuan Pavilion." She got up, and gently raised the jaw of one of the women with her fingertips, "Beauty is beautiful, but it seems that there is less... Order something."
Her eyes were light, and everyone followed her gaze and focused on Mu Baili.
"See, my master is Liu Xiahui, and he is still unmoved when he meets such a delicate beauty, which shows that your skills are still a bit inferior." Zhao Wuyou smiled coldly, "Master, do you think you don't like her?" They, why don't I call you a few more."
Mu Baili stared at her coldly, what kind of tricks does Zhao Wuyou want to play?He drank the wine in silence, and the eyelashes that were clearly visible in the dim light were slightly fluttered by the wind in his downcast eyes.
The gentleness between the lowered eyebrows made many women lose their eyes.
There is such a quiet and beautiful look on the thick and colorful face, even the women in the brothel are well-informed, and they have never seen such a beautiful man.As soon as he sat there, it seemed that the sky was full of light, and wherever he went, this light was condensed on him alone.
Zhao Wuyou has every reason to believe that if he was a woman, the emperor would have eaten him long ago.
Isn't this harem lacking the most gorgeous people in the world?
"What are you looking at?" Mu Baili looked up at her.
Zhao Wuyou's eyes narrowed slightly, damn it, he was distracted.
Cursing the dead eunuch in his heart, but still smiling like a flower on his face, Zhao Wuyou said, "Can you guys dance? Our master likes dancing girls the most, especially the slender waist. As the saying goes, the king of Chu has a slender waist, and the harem starved to death."
Mu Baili smiled, "You know it very well."
"Where is it!" Zhao Wuyou said with a smile, "It's just a man's habit."
These women wanted to stand out in Mu Baili's eyes, so when the singing and dancing started, they twisted their waists hard one by one, and seduced Mu Baili hard one by one.A pair of eyes that almost eat people, makes Zhao Wuyou only feel happy.
"Zhao Wuyou, have you forgotten why we came here?" Mu Baili turned his head and asked.
Zhao Wuyou happened to be sitting next to him, the hand holding the wine glass stopped in the air, pretending to be stupid and said in a daze, "I forgot, sir, since we are here, we can't be so ruthless, look at these beautiful women. So life is still very good, even though..." She looked down at his crotch and crotch, and then laughed dryly, "At least you have to let me relax, right?"
After saying that, Zhao Wuyou got up and hugged a woman in purple clothes, as if slightly drunk, he gnawed on that person's neck directly.
"My lord!" The woman responded softly, and the two entered the Nuan Pavilion next door.
The moment the door was closed, Mu Baili's eyes were cold, and the cup in his hand fell heavily on the table.
Lu Guoan quickly pushed open the door of the Nuan Pavilion, but saw that the curtain was half-drawn, and his legs were entangled on the bed.Because it was such a picture, Lu Guoan didn't dare to look at it any more. He just glanced at it, saw that the two were right, and quickly backed out.
"Master." Not daring to respect the governor in front of these women, Lu Guoan could only change his address, "It's still there."
Hearing this, a woman's chuckle like a copper bell came out of the room, with lightness and enchantment.With that charming and crisp voice, everyone knows what happened inside.It's just normal men and women, that's all normal!
In his mind is the image of himself and Zhao Wuyou being lingering, the gentleness of that scene, the softness that makes people intoxicated, tearing up their respective plots and tricks, but sinking ups and downs in a world that has nothing to do with love.
"Zhao Wuyou." Mu Baili stood up suddenly, his expression not very good-looking.
Pushing open the door of the Nuan Pavilion again, Mu Baili hurried forward and grabbed the man in plain clothes and white clothes.But at the next moment, he was furious, and the man in the sleeve was thrown out, slammed into the wall, and passed out immediately.
What is this Zhao Wuyou, even the woman in purple has changed her appearance.
Zhao Wuyou has disappeared.
Right under his nose, he was stolen and changed.
"Zhao Wuyou!" Mu Baili gritted his teeth, and in an instant, all the furnishings in the house were shattered by the inner force.Lu Guoan thumped and knelt on the ground, not daring to speak, those women outside scattered like birds and beasts, who dared to stay here.
Sitting down with a flick of his sleeves, Mu Baili felt that he had never been played like this in his life, and he wished he could strangle that sick child to death.
The old bustard tremblingly came over and told the whole story, the purple clothed woman was not from Xunhuan Pavilion, she just gave the old bust a lot of money, so she played a play here.In other words, the woman in purple was here for Zhao Wuyou.
Zhao Wuyou had already decided to escape here.
Mu Baili never thought: a wise man will make a mistake if he has thousands of worries.
He also thought that Zhao Wuyou was really lustful, and wanted to solve the necessity of some men here. After all, Mu Baili himself came from a man, but he didn't expect to be tricked.
"Go down!" Lu Guoan looked at the bustard coldly, and waved for people to back down.
Mu Baili got up and left, striding away from Xunhuan Pavilion.
Far away, Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, gathered the shawl around his shoulders, his face was as pale as paper.
"My lord, are you alright?" Tore off the leather cover, who else is it but Su Xi?
"It's nothing." Zhao Wuyou coughed lightly, "Hurry up and find what I'm looking for, I'll go back to the capital right away. It's not too late, don't delay." If you continue to delay, I'm afraid Mu Baili will pester people endlessly Understand.
She played tricks on him once, if there was a next time, she could hardly imagine what Mu Baili would do to her.
Mu Baili thought she was a sick child, so he relaxed his vigilance.
After all, he underestimated his opponent.
Su Xi nodded, "Young master's complexion is not good, why don't you talk about it after a while! Yunzheng and the others will arrive soon."
Zhao Wuyou was indeed a little uncomfortable, so naturally he had no choice but to comply with Su Xi's words.
Dragons and snakes are mixed in Jinling City, which is adjacent to northern Xinjiang, where there are many tribes and barbarians.The people here rely on their own strength to survive, and the weak cannot survive here.
Taking a deep breath, this small manor is not bad, Zhao Wuyou hugged Mrs. Tang to keep warm.
"When the snow melts tomorrow, it won't be so cold." Su Xi said, "My lord, bear with it."
Zhao Wuyou's lips turned pale, "I know, I'm fine, it's just an old problem."
Su Xi sighed softly, "My lord, is there no cure for this disease?"
"Difficult!" Zhao Wuyou lowered his eyes, "Forget it, let's not mention this, how much do you know about Jinling City?"
"The humble official heard that the young master was coming to Jinling City, so he asked people to visit in advance." Suxi thought for a while, "Although this Jinling City belongs to Daye, many of the residents are from the northern Xinjiang, and these people are used to using barbarians. The lord of Jinling City is Liu Hongyi, who belongs to a hereditary title. This man's father was a general under the late emperor's command, and he won the trust of the late emperor, so he was ordered to garrison Jinling City."
Zhao Wuyou coughed, "Liu Hongyi?"
"Yes!" Su Xi said, "Although this person is practicing martial arts with his father, the young master should also know that he can guard here and has not had any major incidents for so many years. It is conceivable that this person's mentality is not low. .Young master, if you meet him in the future, you must be careful."
Zhao Wuyou nodded, "I remember, what else?"
"It's not bad that our things were found here, but we don't know whether they were exiled here or sold off from our ancestors. No one in that Zhuangzi usually went there in a hurry, because they are all from the Jianghu, so unless there is a letter from Zhuangzi, otherwise I'm afraid it's not easy to go in." Suxi sighed softly, "My lord, you should know that there are rules for the people of the rivers and lakes, not like the imperial court."
"People in the court are afraid of the young master, and the young master can be invincible. But the people in the Jianghu talk about morality and love, and the court laws are just a piece of paper to them." Su Xi looked at Zhao Wuyou worriedly , "The humble official said these are not alarmist words, but just want the young master to restrain the court atmosphere, and he must be prepared in his heart."
Zhao Wuyou smiled, "When I come to Jinling City, I am from Jianghu."
Suxi smiled and said, "Young Master's words are very true, so I feel relieved. I will prepare for tomorrow's affairs and leave a mark so that Yunzheng and the others will not go in the wrong direction and act recklessly."
"Go!" For Suxi, Zhao Wuyou was naturally relieved.
Su Xi was originally born in Jianghu, and was hunted down by her enemies back then. If it wasn't for Zhao Wuyou, the two of them would have died long ago.So Su Xi made a poisonous oath, vowing to follow Zhao Wuyou in this life, life and death will not be burdened.
There are not many people Zhao Wuyou can trust, and Suxi is one of them.
Mu Baili didn't expect that Zhao Wuyou's ability is so great, even though he is a sick child, he can be described as methodical in doing things.From the moment she disappeared until the night, Mu Baili didn't find any clues about her.
A living person just disappeared in Jinling City.
Mu Baili was very annoyed by Zhao Wuyou's silence and search for traces.He has never been played by anyone like this before, and he was lost under his nose. There are so many people, not to mention that he is the admiral of the East Factory, the chief supervisor of ceremonies.
Would it be a joke to spread it out?
Lu Guoan knelt in the snow, motionless.
Mu Baili stood by the moat, looking at the snow-capped eyes, his eyes dark, "The Zhao family's hands reach the sky, I didn't expect to reach Jinling City. I really didn't expect that all the softness and struggle, It's just confusing me, witnessing her weakness and powerlessness."
Who knows, all the weakness is just an illusion.
"Master, what should we do now?" Lu Guoan did not dare to say more, "Please show me, Lord."
"Zhao Wuyou won't really come here to find the emperor's elixir of life. She must be doing it for some purpose of her own. If it's for that jade token, she doesn't have to come here in person, because the people Wuji Palace has to deal with are all It's in the capital." Mu Baili calmed down, he had vaguely guessed the purpose of Zhao Wuyou's trip, "Go and check, see if there are traces of Buddhist beads in Jinling City."
Lu Guoan suddenly raised his head, "The Governor said that Zhao Wuyou came to Jinling City because he was looking for the string of Buddhist beads?"
"It's just the Buddha beads, what's the mystery?" Mu Baili didn't figure it out either.
However, there are too many things in this world that cannot be explained with common sense, and Mu Baili will never believe that the Buddhist beads that Zhao Wuyou mobilized the crowd to obtain were just to honor his mother, or they wanted to escape into Buddhism in the future.
Mu Baili suddenly became interested in this Buddhist bead.
Lu Guoan quickly notified the spies of the East Factory to conduct an investigation in Jinling City. Of course, all of this must be carried out carefully and carefully under Liu Hongyi's nose.
Everyone in the world is greedy, and the fewer people who know something, the better.
You want to pursue the greatest benefits, but you also have to guard against the selfishness of others.
Especially Liu Hongyi, who has the mentality of being a high-ranking emperor, he is like a little emperor here, and Jinling City is his little court.Gently wiping the gem-encrusted fingers in his hand, Liu Hongyi raised his eyelids, and glanced at the spies kneeling on the ground, "You mean, there are strangers working in Jinling City?"
"Yes!" The spy nodded, "And there are more than one group of people."
Liu Hongyi nodded, "Continue to explore."
"Yes!" The spy left quickly.
Outside, Du Yuluo entered the door with tea, "So Jinling City is going to be lively again?"
"What do you know?" Liu Hongyi spoke in a low voice, and carefully put the extremely precious finger ring back into the brocade box.
Du Yurao had already brought the tea to him, "Yurao doesn't understand what the city lord means."
"Those who can be active in Jinling City, except for those who don't know how to live or die, should be dignitaries. Do you know what this means?" Liu Hongyi took a sip of fragrant tea, his eyes cool.
Du Yurao shook his head, "Yurao doesn't know."
"If these people come from the imperial court, it means that the emperor doubts my loyalty and starts looking for someone to replace me." Liu Hongyi is very crisis-conscious, "Do you think I will let this happen?"
Du Yurao didn't speak, just lowered his eyes.
The next moment, Liu Hongyi suddenly held Du Yurao's hand, "Yurao, if I have nothing, are you still willing to follow me?"
Du Yurao just looked at him and didn't speak.
"Yu Rao?" He called in a low voice.
Du Yurao saluted, "If the city lord is fine, Yurao will leave first."
"Are you still thinking about him?" Liu Hongyi clenched the cup in his hand, even though the tea was boiling hot, he didn't notice it.
Du Yurao stepped forward to leave, but he heard the sound of preparing for the battle and landing behind him, and the hot tea splashed all over the floor.
Liu Hongyi ruthlessly smashed the cup to the ground, clamped her shoulders angrily, his eyes were about to burst, "He will never even think about getting out of the prison in Jinling City, do you understand?"
Her eyes were light, and there was always that indifferent and alienated expression on her face.He leaned over to pick up the tiles on the ground, but accidentally cut his hand by the tiles, and blood gushed out immediately.
"Yulao!" Liu Hongyi was startled, he hurriedly leaned over to hold her hand, and quickly put it in his mouth.
She looked at him fixedly, but still didn't speak.Like a wooden man, but also like a walking dead.
"Does it still hurt?" Liu Hongyi asked.
Du Yurao withdrew her hand, stood up and left.
"Du Yurao!" he yelled.
She still didn't stop, and when she went out, there was standing outside Liu Hongyi's official wife - Sun Xiaoyun.
Sun Xiaoyun glanced at Du Yurao, but no one said a word. Du Yurao passed her by and drifted away.
In Jinling City, who doesn't know that the city lord and his wife are very affectionate and affectionate.The only regret is that the wife of the city lord has been married to the city lord for many years and has never had a son and a half daughter, so she married Du Yuluo as a last resort.
Du Yurao is just a girl from an ordinary family. Not many people have seen her. Her mother is from northern Xinjiang, and her father is a woodcutter.That's why Du Yurao was extremely beautiful even without makeup. After her father passed away, she and her mother lived in the mountains, and occasionally took some knitted women's reds to the street to exchange for some daily necessities.
All the tranquility is only because I met Liu Hongyi who went hunting in the mountains that day.
is broken!
"Mom!" came a childish voice.
Du Yurao squatted down, caressing her daughter's immature face, "Why is Nuan Nuan here?"
"Mom, why are your eyes red?" Nuan Nuan asked.
Du Yurao pursed her lips and gave a rare smile, "It's nothing, let's go back!"
"Did Mother tell Dad? Nuan Nuan wants to sleep with Dad tonight." The daughter pouted with an innocent look on her face.
Du Yurao's face was a little flustered, "Nuan Nuan, can't mother sleep with you? Dad is busy with work, so let's not, don't disturb him, okay?"
"Mom!" Nuan Nuan shook her head, "I want Daddy!"
Du Yuluo picked up her daughter, "Nuan Nuan, my mother will sing to you tonight, please stop making trouble, your father is really busy."
"Father!" The child's clear voice made Du Yuluo turn around suddenly.When facing Liu Hongyi, there was a trace of panic and helplessness on her face.
"Come!" Liu Hongyi opened his arms, and Nuan Nuan threw himself into his father's arms, "Dad heard what Nuan Nuan said, and I will come over tonight." When he said this, he looked up at Du Yuluo At a glance, Du Yurao seemed a little nervous.Liu Hongyi smiled at his daughter, "Nuan Nuan must be good."
The child nodded again and again, "Mother lied to me again, Dad loves Nuannuan the most."
From a distance, Sun Xiaoyun looked at the family of three, his eyes gradually turned red.She was clearly a regular wife, but in the end she seemed like an outsider.
"Madam?" The maid Cui'er called out in a low voice, "Don't be sad."
"It's nothing, the city lord is just such a child, can you not feel sorry for him?" Sun Xiaoyun turned and left.
They are a family of three, so what is she?
It really is an outsider!
The most familiar stranger.
After comforting his daughter, Liu Hongyi went directly to the study, feeling in a good mood.
Follower Tianlei said with a smile, "Congratulations to the city lord."
Every time he could go to Du Yurao's room, Liu Hongyi always had this expression.As a follower, of course he knew what his master was up to.
"There are people in the city, so keep an eye on them. Strengthen your defenses in the past few days to prevent the barbarians from northern Xinjiang from attacking." Liu Hongyi looked at the sand table in the room. Topography.
His eyes were slightly condensed, and Liu Hongyi remained silent.
"Recently, Huduo is about to make a move, and he intends to contact Gebu, so we have to guard against it." Tianlei pointed to the area outside the city, "Huduo has already camped here, and Gebu has not moved, but according to the spies' report, they privately The people below have begun to communicate frequently. What Gebu means now is unknown, but we must be careful."
"Someone in the city is also moving, let's investigate carefully and see who dares to move under my nose." Liu Hongyi looked at the sand table, "After finding out, report it quickly."
"If it's a spy, we can catch it in one go. It's definitely not a problem." Tian Lei worried, "But the city lord, what if he is a member of the court?"
Liu Hongyi smiled coldly, "What else can we do? These people accidentally broke into the important military aircraft and tried to steal the secrets of the military aircraft. They were accidentally dealt with by the military law. Jinling is adjacent to the northern border, so these military affairs are not trifling."
Tianlei nodded, "I understand."
The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. This is Jinling City, and he, Liu Hongyi, is the lord of Jinling City who holds a heavy army.The life and death of Jinling City depended on him alone, and... even if the emperor planned to send someone to replace him, who would dare to accept his power?
How could the soldiers of the three armies listen to those bullshit Beijing officials?
The security inside and outside the city began to be strengthened, and Lu Guoan also felt something strange, and quickly reported to Mu Baili.
"Master?" Lu Guoan bowed his head, "Do you want to say hello?"
"Liu Hongyi has some movement, that's naturally the best." Mu Baili took a deep breath, stood in the inn, looked at the bustling scene in Jinling City, "Order, suspend all activities. Wait for Liu Hongyi to finish all the goals, Aim at Zhao Wuyou, let's come again."
The snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit. What he has to do now is to muddy the water, and then let Liu Hongyi deal with Zhao Wuyou and dig Zhao Wuyou out.Mu Baili knew that Liu Hongyi was cruel and ruthless, if he knew that Zhao Wuyou, a Minister of Rites, was dormant in Jinling City, he would definitely not let him go.
What's more, Zhao Wuyou still has the emperor's life on him.
Liu Hongyi is suspicious, which can be used to dig out Zhao Wuyou.
But Zhao Wuyou is not a fool, although I don't know who you Liu Hongyi are, but since you have discovered my spies, then I have no choice but to stand still.
"Young Master?" Suxi entered the door, "Seven Star Villa is competing to select the owner of the villa these two days, we got the post."
"Choose the master in the martial arts competition?" Zhao Wuyou didn't quite understand the rules in the arena.
Su Xi explained, "Seven Stars Villa is a big family of the Song family. Now that the owner of the villa is lingering and sick, every clan member in the villa began to re-select a more capable owner to inherit the Seven Stars Villa. The existence of Seven Stars Villa is an honor and a kind of honor. It is a kind of protection. It must fool the clan's security, no matter what happens, the owner of the Seven Star Villa has absolute decision-making power, which is equivalent to the patriarch."
"For the sake of fairness and justice, a large number of people from the rivers and lakes will stay in the manor arranged by Qixing Villa, just waiting for the final contest to choose the owner." Suxi continued, "Young master-you probably won't be interested, in fact. A bunch of reckless people fought and killed, fighting for position with force!"
Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, "Here is a clear knife and a bright spear directly taking people's lives, and the soft knife invisible to the court is not much better."
Su Xi nodded, "Yes."
"Have all our people restrained?" Zhao Wuyou gathered his shoulders and shawls.
"Yes!" Su Xi nodded, "I have already ordered them to stay put. Even if we meet in the future, I have the right not to know."
"That's good!" Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, turned his head to look at the white clothes and the fox fur in the yard.
"What's wrong, son?" Su Xi asked.
Zhao Wuyou thought for a while, then turned around and went back to the house.
Mu Baili knows how to restrain herself, and she, Zhao Wuyou, knows better what it means to be wise and protect one's life.
By the time Tianlei led people into the manor, there was no trace of Zhao Wuyou and others inside and out.Searching all over the manor, there is no trace of clues, except for a suit of clothes and a fox-fur shawl on the table. There is only one imprint underneath, which is the exclusive imprint of Dongchang.
Tianlei was startled, and quickly put the note in his sleeve, "Search carefully for me, don't miss a single bit."
The people from Dongchang had been to Jinling City earlier, and indeed they had contacted them, and they were looking for someone.But what does this mean in Dongchang now?Came quietly, left a note and withdrew silently.
Looking at the material of the fox fur and the materials used in this suit, it is indeed not affordable for ordinary people.Moreover, the top of the clothes is still dyed with a little fragrance, like rouge and gouache.
Men's clothes have these fragrances, who else but eunuchs?
Thinking of this, Tianlei turned around and left, "Withdraw!"
Turning around, he handed the note and the clothes to Liu Hongyi. Seeing this at first, Liu Hongyi was startled, "Is someone from Dongchang coming? If so, why didn't you tell me?" Looking at the clothes again, it is indeed not something that ordinary people can wear. If you can afford it, there are only a few shops in and out of the city that can make such clothes.
Tianlei bowed and saluted, "I checked it out, and I bought it from a cloth shop outside the city. I even asked the shopkeeper what he looked like, and the shopkeeper said he had a white face, thin lips and a sword around his waist. Expressionless, just like a paper doll, it makes people feel scared when they look at it. When that person came, he didn't have a local accent, and he spent a lot of money, he only wanted the best."
Liu Hongyi frowned, "Who is here from East Factory?"
The last time Shen Yan came over, it seemed that there was no such momentum!
Eyebrows raised suddenly, Liu Hongyi gasped, "Could it be Mu Baili here?"
Tianlei was shocked, "What does the city lord mean, that the governor is here?"
"Mu Baili should be stationed in the capital, has he really come?" Liu Hongyi stared at the note in his hand, thoughtfully, "Remove all the bright whistles dangling in the street, and continue the dark whistles, but don't startle the snakes. .If Mu Baili really came, then the reason why he hid it must have other purposes."
If the imperial court sent other people over, Liu Hongyi could easily handle it, but he would just kill a few people!
But if Mu Baili really came here in person, Liu Hongyi is not sure that he can kill Mu Baili.
Moreover, Mu Baili's intentions are unknown, which is a big problem.
There are two forces, one is Mu Baili, so what about the other?Who is the other one?Is it Mu Baili's deadly enemy, or his helper?
"City Master, why don't we just do nothing like this?" I just ordered the secret sentry to watch, if something really happened, it would be...too late.
Liu Hongyi let out a long breath, "Let's leave it at that!"
It can only be like this temporarily, who is Mu Baili?That's a ruthless master, Dongchang is not easy to mess with.
Mu Baili didn't seem to get the effect he wanted, and the fluctuations in the city disappeared, which meant that Liu Hongyi might have guessed that he was in the city.It stands to reason that since he evacuated the spies ahead of time, he shouldn't have revealed his identity.Even if Liu Hongyi doubts, it is difficult to doubt himself.
The only reason probably lies in Zhao Wuyou.
Zhao Wuyou was tricky and cunning, and it really was impossible to guard against.
"Supervisor?" Lu Guoan worried, "In this way, the fisherman we agreed to benefit will become Zhao Wuyou's distraction?" Therefore, Zhao Wuyou became a fisherman.
Mu Baili took a sip of the fragrant tea, "I will settle this account sooner or later."
"Then what about Liu Hongyi?" Lu Guoan frowned, "I'm afraid we won't be able to hide it."
"If you can't hide it, just wait!" Mu Baili was not in a hurry.
If you can't hide, of course there are ways you can't hide, Zhao Wuyou, Zhao Wuyou, let's wait and see.
The cup in his hand was crushed in an instant, and the tea splashed everywhere, which also made someone's heart skip a beat.It was as if the crisp sound hit my heart.Some inexplicable touches, inexplicable anxiety and panic.
The hand holding the greeting post suddenly trembled, and the post suddenly fell to the ground.
Su Xi frowned, "My lord, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Wuyou clutched her slightly quickened heart, "It's nothing, it's just that I feel a little uncomfortable all of a sudden." She looked back and looked around, "I always feel as if someone is staring at me."
"Young master, don't worry, there is a lowly position, and nothing will happen." Su Xi smiled, "Let's go, Seven Stars Villa is just ahead."
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Wuyou nodded, rubbing his heart in a little puzzlement, what was wrong with this sudden palpitation?Before, there seemed to be no such symptoms.
Could it be that his condition has worsened?
Is it because she has been restrained from taking medicine and failed to take it on time?
This body is really getting weirder and weirder!
Looking up, Seven Stars Villa is right in front of you.
Outside the villa, people from all walks of life gathered, and it was really lively.
Zhao Wuyou and Suxi stood there one by one, handing over the greeting card in their hands.The two were very lucky, and were arranged in the west wing of the Seven Star Villa.There are quite a few people here, all of whom were invited to participate in the martial arts tournament.
Putting down the package, Zhao Wuyou stood in the yard, looking at the busy Jianghu people in the wing room.These people are all dressed in strange clothes, which are too different from those square and square people in the imperial court.These people are either vicious or graceful, but the only thing they have in common is that there is a bloodthirsty desire in everyone's eyes.
Killing is addictive.
And the first time is raw and the second time is familiar, and there will be no more feelings after that.
For this point, Zhao Wuyou felt the same way.
Turning her head, she saw not far away, two strong men were entangled with a scholar, perhaps a dispute had occurred.One of the strong men stretched out his hand and poured the tea in his hand on the scholar. The scholar did not hide, and the tea was poured on his body.The scholar sighed lightly, shook his folding fan and turned to leave.
Su Xi smiled and said, "What are you looking at, my lord?"
Zhao Wuyou looked back, "Look at all kinds of situations in the world, and see what kind of situation you are in."
"What did the young master see?" Su Xi asked.
Zhao Wuyou walked back to the house, "The two strong men on the east side are actually idiots, full of brute force. The scholar on the south side is practical, looks thin but has excellent martial arts. Only the one on the north side, always If he didn't come out, even if we came in, he never came out."
Su Xi was puzzled, "How did you see their martial arts?"
