Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 409 Xiao Qingyu's poisonous hair (2)
Glancing at Su Changjing's calm face, she fixed her gaze and said in a deep voice, "Uncle, who is Chu Muyan?"

Su Changjing was stunned, the clear wine stuck in his throat, and he coughed repeatedly. It took him a while to recover, and said in a low voice, "Why... remember to ask him?"

"My father, Chen Xianhe, Marquis Dingguo, and King Yan have all mentioned Chu Muyan's name, but when I asked carefully, they all kept silent, as if they were taboo." Mu Yutang said what he had wanted for a long time For a good reason, there is also a layer of doubt just right in the beautiful eyes.

A 15-year-old girl is exactly the age of curiosity. Su Changjing didn't doubt it too much, put down his wine glass, and sighed heavily: "Chu Muyan is indeed a big taboo of the Qinglong Kingdom..."

"Yutang and Dad were talking about the Marshal of the Xuan Tie Army who was killed for treason 16 years ago?" Su Yixuan was a major general in the army. In the barracks, he talked about military affairs, strategies, and the great achievements of his ancestors. Chu Muyan He has also heard the name several times.

"I don't believe that Chu Muyan will rebel." Su Changjing's sharp eyes showed rare solemnity and firmness: "How can he be so proud and handsome?"

Mu Yutang already knew that Chu Muyan's rebellion was planned and framed by others. Outsiders did not see the evidence, so it is understandable to misunderstand Chu Muyan, but Su Changjing firmly believed that Chu Muyan did not rebel, which is really surprising: "Uncle knows Chu Muyan very well. Word?"

"I understand very well." Su Changjing nodded, looking at Mu Yutang's eyes with joy and regret, if there were no shocking changes back then, Yutang's surname should be Chu now, not Mu.

If Mu Yutang heard his heartfelt feelings, she would definitely slander her. There has been a huge change, and her real father's surname is also Chu.

"Are you close friends?" Mu Yutang knew that Chu Muyan and Su Xueqing were a loving couple, and it was not surprising that Su Changjing, who was an older brother, had a good relationship with his future brother-in-law.

Su Changjing chuckled: "We have very little contact, not even good friends. We met because I was young and aggressive, and I made trouble for him."

"Are you looking for trouble with Chu Muyan?" Mu Yutang's eyes widened in surprise. She thought that Su Changjing knew Chu Muyan because of Su Xueqing's relationship, but she didn't expect that they met because of trouble.

Su Yixuan's eyes were also full of curiosity: "What's going on?"

"I used to be in the army. In addition to dealing with the military, I was also responsible for recruiting recruits. When Chu Muyan came to sign up to join the army, I was the one who greeted..."

Recalling the events of the past, Su Changjing's brows were full of spirits, as if he had been decades younger, and his steady eyes lit up with stars, and he talked eloquently: "The Chu family has been civil servants for generations, and they have basically never been military generals. Chu Muyan He is the most handsome man in the capital, he is extremely well-cultivated, gentle and refined, and has a personable demeanor. He has never used martial arts in front of others, and everyone in the world thinks that he will also be a generation of civil servants."

"At that time, I saw him registering his enlistment name with a pen, and I thought to myself, such an elegant man must have a small illness every three days or a serious illness every five days when he enters the barracks. Give up the idea of ​​entering the barracks, it's good for him and the barracks..."

"Then did his performance exceed your expectations?" Mu Yutang was full of smiles, the marshal of the Xuantie Army, even if he just joined the army, he has extraordinary abilities.

"It's more than unexpected." Su Changjing's eyes flickered a little, and he drank the fine wine in one gulp, talking about the past.

The sun is shining and the grass is growing and warblers are flying. It is a good season to recruit new soldiers.

green grass.With the recruitment table as the center, there are a large number of young men standing. The one in the middle is wearing a silver brocade robe with snow-green trim, and his hair is lightly tied up with a white jade hair crown. His handsome and delicate face is proud and unrestrained. The young master Chu Muyan.

Looking at him who was noble and handsome, the men who were tall and rough whispered: "This young master Chu, is so gentle and elegant, he is almost a civil servant, why did he come to join the army?"

"That's right, I don't think he can even draw a bow and arrow, and even went into battle to kill the enemy..."

Su Changjing listened to everyone's discussion, and the corner of his mouth curved into a very shallow smile. The conditions in the military camp were difficult, and those pampered young masters could not come, so he let the young master Chu see the situation clearly and leave automatically.

He pushed aside the crowd and walked in front of Chu Muyan, and said with a smile, "Young Master Chu, can you shoot arrows?"

Chu Muyan glanced at him, and said casually, "I know a thing or two."

"There is an archery target ahead, you can shoot a few arrows to dispel their suspicion." Su Changjing's 'kind' suggestion.

Chu Muyan looked at the target ten meters away, and said leisurely, "I don't like shooting dead targets."

Su Changjing choked, and when he shot an arrow, he was picky. He gave Chu Muyan a sneaky look, and said patiently, "There are hares, pheasants, and ducks nearby. You can shoot whatever you want..."

Chu Muyan looked at the jumping animals in the distance, and shook his head: "It's just some common game, I'm not interested, I heard that General Su is very good at archery, can you shoot that animal down!" Chu Muyan pointed to the sky .

"What animal?" Su Changjing followed his pointing and saw two falcons circling in the sky, only two small black dots had disappeared: "They flew too far. No matter how high the law is, you can't shoot it."

"Major General Su, how do you know you won't be able to shoot if you don't try?" Chu Muyan's magnetic voice was bewitching: "Major General Su, let's try it, and let the brothers in the military tent and the brothers here try."

Su Changjing stared at the small black dot that was flying farther and farther away, full of perplexity. He knew in his heart that he would never be able to shoot the falcon with his arrow technique. Seeing the patrolling generals approaching, his eyes lit up and he walked quickly. He stepped forward: "General, are you interested in shooting those two eagles?"

The generals of the barracks went to battle to kill the enemy, their swordsmanship and spearmanship were excellent, and their arrow skills were naturally excellent, but when they saw the eagle in the sky, their eyes were slightly astonished. ..."

"Yeah, yeah, it's so far away, it's absolutely impossible to shoot..." The soldiers and men who joined the army also echoed.

Chu Muyan smiled slightly: "It's just two eagles, not a large number of enemy troops. Why are you all so dejected? Take an arrow and shoot it first. The best shot is the best one. If you can't shoot it, it can be used as experience."

A general pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Young Master Chu is right, come here, get a bow and arrow."

The general went out in person, and many soldiers were also eager to try. They each took their bows and arrows, found a suitable position, saw the eagle landed at the lowest point, and shot an arrow, the feather arrow pierced the sky. Before it touched the eagle, it slanted When it fell, the soldier sighed softly, but there was no shame on his face.

With him at the beginning, other soldiers also shot arrows one after another, and as expected, they all missed. Even the general also shot empty arrows, but he didn't feel embarrassed. The eagle flew too high, and the arrows couldn't reach it at all. No, nothing to be ashamed of.
