Mountains have trees and trees have branches

Chapter 7 Who do you say is a pig

Mu Xiliang was a little surprised, Qing Huan rubbed his chin and thought, "First of all, Deng Shuangxi is not under my father's control. It's okay to be held accountable if something goes wrong, but it's not unreasonable for my father not to be asked. Man, if he insists on doing this, he must have his own reasons;”

Qing Huan stretched out a finger and looked at him with raised eyebrows, Mu Xiliang signaled her to continue.

"Secondly, although the mixed 8th and 9th brigades are not as good as the Guards Battalion, they are still elite. To a certain extent, they are stationed in Huating. I don't believe that such an important trusted army, Daddy, is really relieved. No sources?"

She paused, but Mu Xiliang remained silent.

"The answer is no, so it means that the big daddy knew in advance that something would happen in the cannon show, and he did the opposite. He promoted Deng Shuangxi and invited some special commissioner to see it. There is only one truth. "

When Qing Huan said this, Mu Xiliang's eyes changed slightly, and she continued to talk.

"In this way, isn't it for Deng Shuangxi to relieve my father's position? In this way, the eldest father can let Deng Shuangxi hand over the military power without a single soldier, and he can continue to call him a brother, okay? sharp!"

Qing Huan squinted his eyes and smiled, with an adoring expression on his face. Mu Xiliang heard a little interest. He crossed his arms and thought for a while, "What about the training funds? No one will have trouble with money, right?"

After saying this, Qing Huan suddenly burst into laughter.

Enough of laughing, she raised her head and lowered her voice, her big eyes shone brightly.

"Brother Xiliang, do you really think that I don't know that Daddy has several gold mines waiting to be developed?"

Mu Xiliang was taken aback for a moment, and Qing Huan said proudly.

"In this situation, if you wait for the government to give you training funds, you will starve to death. I think Daddy should not be short of that money. And, have you ever heard a saying that Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng will destroy you?" In other words, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong, and they are afraid of being famous..."

"Stop, stop!! Who do you say is a pig, who is a bird, and who is a log??"

Mu Xiliang glared at her, Qing Huan stuck out her tongue and hugged his arm acting like a baby.

"Oh, the words don't sound good but the meanings are not the same. Not to mention the whole country, even our northern court. A girl like me knows that several factions are fighting openly and secretly to seize power."

Qing Huan became serious, and Mu Xiliang asked her to continue talking.

"Our Huating has been a strategic location since ancient times, and the Mu family army of the big daddy is synonymous with elite soldiers and strong generals. If you are too strong, you will either be used by others, or be regarded as a threat and be eliminated. Be weak. , not so conspicuous, accumulating power secretly and waiting for an opportunity, this is the way of a smart person. I believe that big daddy has the same idea as me."

What does it mean to be impressed by Shibie for three days?
Mu Xiliang felt both surprised and happy, but his face remained motionless.

Qing Huan's eyes lit up, and she leaned closer and said with a sweet smile, "How is it? Am I different from what you imagined? Did I surprise you?"

She was about to praise me for my arrogant appearance, Mu Xiliang suddenly turned her head and smiled, while stretching out her hand to push away her face that was too close.

Qing Huan pouted annoyedly, and said boredly, "If you are dismissed, you can dismiss it. It just so happens that Dad hasn't been with me for a long time. You can cook something delicious for me when you get home today. By the way, you can also go to Beihai Park for a picnic. The peach blossoms in the park are just in bloom, and I heard that Tumi is also in bloom, oh so great!!"

She clapped her hands, her eyes narrowed with joy, "Brother Xiliang, do you want to go together?"

Mu Xiliang turned around and glanced at her, then suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch her nose and shook it, and said with a smile, "Qing Huan, you can't go home today, and you can't go to a picnic."

"why!!"

"Let me think about it, what did you say I was? A pig? I feel quite sorry that such vulgar language came out of your mouth, so I will tell my mother to hire a Chinese teacher for you, and get out of class will be over every day In the end, you must go home on time and study Chinese etiquette at home for an hour until I think you are a qualified lady of the family and will no longer speak rudely. I think Uncle Fu will definitely approve of my idea."

"what??!"

Qing Huan knocked off his hand and shouted, "Mu Xiliang, this is revenge!!"

Mu Xiliang smiled elegantly, shrugged and sat back in his original position with a relaxed face.

"Heqiao, drive."

"It's the young master."

The car started slowly, and Qing Huan lay on the window and looked out desperately. Where the car passed, there was a long series of screams of "I want to go home" in the air.

The cannonball performance failed, although the money was indeed left behind, but the northern court issued an order to reward Mu Xiliang for his meritorious service in suppressing the bandits, and was awarded the rank of Jinzhong colonel.

Mu Zhonglin went down the slope and directly appointed Mu Xiliang as the commander of the artillery regiment that had failed in the previous artillery demonstration.

There are few classes today, Qing Huan came back early, and just entered the door, I heard someone say.

"Oh, I didn't say that, this Xiliang is capable. Look how hard you have worked since you came back, and you are already the head of the regiment. As the old saying goes, the blue is better than the blue, and our warlord is going to be overtaken by our son."

Qing Huan tilted her head. In the western hall, Mrs. He was chatting with a few familiar wives. A lady with sharp eyes saw Qing Huan and greeted her with a busy smile, "Yo, Qing Huan is back."

After being discovered, Qing Huan laughed twice and walked over quickly, greeting all the wives one by one.

A wife said with a smile, "Why did you come back so early today? Nowadays, there are too few children who are willing to go home obediently after school."

He smiled and pulled Qing Huan to sit next to her, and said, "This is not Xiliang. I hired a Chinese teacher to make up lessons at home for her, and stipulated that she must go home after school. Otherwise, this girl is too playful. Where are you willing to come back early?"

Everyone laughed, and the wife gave a little taste, "Oh, I can't see that the young master is so strict with Qing Huan. I know, it's the elder brother who is strict with the younger sister. I don't know, I thought it was to train a little daughter-in-law."

Everyone burst into laughter, Qing Huan was made to blush, wanted to refute but didn't know what to say, so she blushed and remained silent.

He smiled and glared at the lady who was speaking, "Lan Zhen, you are the only one who talks a lot, and when you talk about good things, you go astray. Look at you, you are so funny, you are not like an adult!"

The lady called Lan Zhen covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, stood up, walked to Qing Huan and took her hand.

"Okay, okay, blame me for talking too much, Qing Huan, don't take it to heart. But it's not my fault for thinking wrongly, we Qing Huan are so good-looking and well-bred, isn't it a natural match for a golden boy and a jade girl to stand with us young and old? If it weren't for our eldest and youngest, who in Huating would be worthy of our Qinghuan?"

Qing Huan became more and more embarrassed by these words, as if she was sitting on pins and needles, Mu Xiliang unexpectedly came back, seeing how busy the west side hall was, she came over to greet everyone.

When everyone saw Mu Xiliang was taken aback, then looked at Qing Huan again, they couldn't help laughing, the shy Qing Huan couldn't sit still anymore, and went back upstairs on the pretext of homework.

After closing the door, the words of those ladies were still echoing in her ears, Qing Huan covered her hot face and smirked shyly.

It took a long time for her to change her clothes, and she took off her shirt without thinking. Mu Xiliang opened the door and came in while calling her name, just in time to meet her shirtless.
