I am Feng Jun

Chapter 23

On the border of northern Xinjiang, in the military tent.

Mu Yuanxi was looking at the military newspaper from the front line.

The snow has melted in spring, and the exemption card has been taken off, thinking that there will be another war soon.

"Your Highness."

Mu Yuanxi's personal maid, Hong Jin, came in and bowed back.

"The northern geese are coming."

At the same time, another woman in a well-dressed outfit followed Hong Jin in.

"Bring the letter."

Hearing this, Mu Yuanxi put down the military newspaper in his hand.

Ever since Mu Yuanxi came to Northern Xinjiang, Shen Nanzhu's letters were delivered by Beiyan.

Bei Yan had already gotten used to His Highness Xi's crispness.

Bei Yan handed over the letter, and Mu Yuanxi opened it to look at it, his expression didn't change much.

After Mu Yuanxi finished reading it, he put the letter back, looked at Beiyan, and asked an unexpected question.

"How is Shen Ci?"

Beiyan delivered the letter for four years, His Highness Xi never asked the Second Young Master a word, but now it made her a little confused.

Why did you remember to ask the Second Young Master today?

"His Royal Highness Huixi, the Second Young Master is very well, and his illness has also recovered a lot."

Although puzzled, she had to answer His Highness Xi's question.

"Nanzhu said in the letter that he lost his memory?"

"Second Young Master fainted once in Sierzhai, and lost his memory after waking up, but the problem is not serious."

After the second son lost his memory, his young master was very happy!

"Ah That's good."

Mu Yuanxi was as cold as ever, and it was hard to see what she was thinking.

"Your Highness Xi, look, do you want to reply?"

Bei Yan asked.

"No, just go to Duhu Mansion with Gu, and you can just take people back."

Mu Yuanxi stood up. She didn't wear any armor, but was dressed in black clothes, and her hair was tied into a high ponytail.

Today she did not put her natural blonde hair in a bun, and the golden threads scattered among the black colors refracted fine streamers in the sunlight.

Seeing that Mu Yuanxi was about to go out, Hong Qiao led Mu Yuanxi's horse over.

Mu Yuanxi got on his horse and gave orders to Hong Jin and Hong Yao.

"Just stay here."

"Yes."

The two stayed in the camp, and Mu Yuanxi took Bei Yan directly to the Duhu Mansion.

Zong Lan has already arrived at the Protectorate's Mansion, but Rao Xi has been refusing to make friends, and Zong Lan can't grab it.

When she was arguing with Rao Xi and trying to figure out how to take Liu Ti and his daughter back, she suddenly got news that His Royal Highness Xi had come.

"His Highness Xi?"

Rao Xi couldn't help frowning when he heard that the servants came to report.

Isn't His Highness Xi guarding the frontier? Why did he suddenly come to Duhufu?

Although Mu Yuanxi was much younger than her, she did not dare to underestimate this empress dowager who went from being a soldier to being a general in only four years.

Not to mention that she also personally trained the Golden Eagle Guard, which made the people of Northern Xinjiang fearful.

After the guard passed the pass, Mu Yuanxi dismounted and strode into the Duhu Mansion. Rao Xi and Zong Lan both saluted.

"I have seen His Highness Xi."

"rise."

Zong Lan had long been accustomed to Mu Yuanxi's crispness, and immediately got up, and Rao Xi also got up with Zong Lan.

"I don't know what your Highness Xi is doing here this time? Is there something wrong with Beijiang?"

Rao Xi asked in a businesslike manner.

Didn't she receive any bad news as the guardian?
"It's not about northern Xinjiang."

Mu Yuanxi was sitting in the upper seat, and the deep eyes in the ink pupils swept across Rao Xi's body, making her shudder.

"Gu Lai wants two people."

"It's strange. Who needs His Highness to ask me for it in person? His Highness will tell someone, and I will send it to His Highness."

If you just want people, it's not a big deal.

Rao Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but still had some doubts.

His Highness Xi has nearly [-] Golden Eagle Guards, and he still needs to ask himself who he wants?

"As long as you are willing to give it, just give it to Zong Lan."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yuanxi said lightly, but his tone was irresistibly majestic.

"What, what?"

Rao Xi didn't understand, so she asked again,
"Master Rao is hard of hearing?"

Mu Yuanxi asked back, making Rao Xi tense all over.

"No, Your Highness, I can hear clearly, but I can't understand."

Why did Zong Lan's matter involve the Crown Princess!

"Master Rao, I just want Liu Ti, his father and daughter, and just hand them over to Zong Lan. Do you understand this time?"

Mu Yuanxi glanced at Rao Xi, the cold look in his eyes made Rao Xi a little overwhelmed, but he still asked.

"These two are servants of my Rao family, I don't know what His Highness Xi wants them to do?"

Rao Feng, Rao Feng, you have done me a disservice!

"What? Zong Lan didn't make it clear to the adults?"

With that said, Mu Yuanxi glanced at Zong Lan who was standing aside.

Zong Lan saw that His Highness Xi was here to help her, and continued.

"I have made it clear to my lord that Liu Ti's elder brother is trying to kill our second son in the mansion, and we are here to take them back for questioning."

"Master Rao, which word do you not understand?"

Mu Yuanxi asked back.

"Chen, I understand."

If you don't understand anymore, you may lose your official position!
Rao Xi said tremblingly.

This is the Empress Dowager!
"It's good to understand."

Mu Yuanxi pointed to Rao Xi again.

"Master Rao, now someone wants to kill Gu's fiancé, tell me, what should Gu do?"

"This, of course, must be severely punished."

Rao Xi lowered his head, a drop of cold sweat fell down.

"Well, Lord Rao seems to understand very well, you know, Shen Ci is the future Feng Shaojun.

If it is said that the person who harmed him is hiding in the Anbei Protectorate, Lord Rao must not be able to afford it. "

Rao Xi knelt down when he heard the words, showing his loyalty.

"I will certainly not cover up sinners, and I will strictly investigate after I go back. If it is found that it is related to the Rao family, I will hand over the mastermind behind it to His Highness for disposal!"

"Just leave it to the Shen family to do what Yu Gu does."

Mu Yuanxi's lips parted slightly, and his tone was cool and indifferent.

"Get up, my lord."

"Yes."

"Go and bring someone here."

Rao Xi didn't dare to delay, so he asked Liu Ti to be brought here.

In the lobby of the Protectorate's Mansion, an elderly man and a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl were brought up.

"Your Highness, these are Liu Ti and his daughter."

Rao Xi leaned over and said to Mu Yuanxi, showing respect from top to bottom.

In the lobby, Liu Ti was full of fear and worry, protecting her daughter.

He didn't know why he was sent to the north in disguise, and he didn't know why he was locked up by Master Rao as soon as he arrived at the Duhu Mansion!
As a servant, his life and death are in the hands of his master.

But he really didn't know what mistake he had made, and how to implicate his daughter?
"Are you sure it's these two people?"

Mu Yuanxi asked Zong Lan.

"Back to Your Highness, it's these two people."

Zong Lan breathed a sigh of relief, without the help of the Crown Princess, it is unknown when they would be caught.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your help."

"No need."

Mu Yuanxi supported Zong Lan.

"You and the teacher grew up watching you alone, so there is no need to be like this."

At the beginning of Shen Yin, not only was he an official worship prime minister, but he also had the title of Tai Nu Tai Tuo, who was Mu Yuanxi's first teacher.

Zong Lan heard this with a slight smile on his face.

His Highness Xi has clear grievances and grievances, and he protects the second young master so much, so there is no need to worry about it in the future.

"Come on, take these two people down."

Zong Lan ordered the people she brought.

"No, no, my lord, what did I do wrong? My lord, even if I die, I have to make this slave understand!"

Liu Ti questioned loudly while protecting her daughter from being taken away by them.

This trip, but I don't know life or death!
"Why, you don't know?"

Mu Yuanxi looked coldly at Liu Ti who was slumped on the ground, and his voice was indifferent.

"Your good brother, the second son who poisoned and assassinated the Shen family in the imperial capital, and your lonely fiancé."

"what?"

Liu Ti's eyes widened upon hearing this, she shook her head, and spoke incoherently.

"How could it be? Why did he kill the Second Young Master? He has no grudge against the Second Young Master. No, no, he must have been wronged! He is the scapegoat, not him, not his!"

"presumptuous!"

Rao Xi kicked Liu Ti and scolded angrily.

"His Royal Highness Xi dares to speak so loudly in front of you! What kind of scapegoat, if he didn't do it, how could he be found!"

Rao Xi wanted to kick again, but was stopped by Zong Lan.

They are going to bring back alive!
Rao Xi was stopped, and his heart became more angry, pointing to the people who huddled together on the ground and said.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I won't kill you alive!"

"Why is Mr. Rao so angry? He simply wants to bring him back to the Shen family for trial. Even if it's a scapegoat, it won't be the crime of Mr. Rao?"

Mu Yuanxi scraped off the froth in the tea with the lid of the cup, and took a sip of the tea.

The man had already been taken down, seeing His Highness Xi's question, Rao Xi's heart rose again.

"I don't want to see this kind of picky person presumptuously in front of His Highness. That's why I got a little angry."

"That's it."

Mu Yuanxi put down the teacup, walked to Rao Xi's side, patted Rao Xi's shoulder with his left hand, and looked sideways.

"Since the person has been confirmed, Zong Lan can just take it back, and it's time for Gu to go back to the camp."

"My humble minister respectfully sends His Highness off."

It can be regarded as gone!
Rao Xi thought to himself.

Unexpectedly, Mu Yuanxi stopped after walking a few steps, turned around and said to Zong Lan.

"Be careful on your way back, don't accidentally bring a dead person back."

"Yes, the subordinates will be more vigilant."
