The rain kept falling, and the sky seemed to be about to fall.

In front of the mansion of the Ming Marquis, there is a large open space, the streets are outside, and there are horse sheds on the left and right sides of the open space, which are prepared for the carriages coming and going.

In front of the door, a carriage was parked.

"Mr. Dongguo, the lord has recently contracted a cold, and he is sick, so he can't see each other, please go back!" Huo Yu personally walked out and analyzed.

"I don't know what Your Excellency is called?"

Dong Guofeng was in the carriage, looked at Huo Yu, and asked in a low voice.

"I'm just a clerk in Zhaoming Pavilion, with a small surname Huo, a name Yu, and a self-centered!" Huo Yu introduced himself.

"It turned out to be Master Huo!"

Dong Guo Feng arched his hand and said: "Trouble Lord Huo to pass the word again, just say that Qianwei Dong Guo Feng, there is something important to ask to see Minghou, no matter how long you wait, I hope that Lord Minghou can see each other, and I am grateful!" ”

When Huo Yu heard this, he returned the salute, and then said: "I'll go to report it, but Lord Minghou has been ill recently, and he may not be willing to see outsiders, there is not much hope, Mr. Dongguo doesn't have to be too persistent, you can go back to the post station to wait first!" ”

"I'll be waiting here!"

Dongguo Feng Road.

"That's up to you!" Huo Yu turned around and left, returning to report.

"Dad, I'm afraid Minghou won't see us now, or let's go back first!"

Inside the carriage, Dong Guo Yue advised Dong Guo Feng.

"He doesn't see me, I'm afraid it's still not sincere, let's get off!"

Dong Guofeng opened the curtains, looked at the rain outside, made a decision in his heart, and said calmly.

"Dad, now it's raining so heavily outside, your health is not good, if you get drenched in the rain and get sick, what should you do!" Dong Guo Yue was in a hurry.

"It's better for me to die alone than for the Dongguo family to be wiped out!"

Dong Guofeng personally opened the curtain and walked down step by step.

He stood in front of the Minghou Mansion, and Dong Guo Yue walked up from behind, holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, but the wind and rain were too strong for the oil-paper umbrella to cover it, and the rain hit Dongguo Feng's body.

A chill rose from Dong Guo Feng's back.

It's not just that he is getting older, but he has been pampered for so many years, and the sudden wind and rain made him a little uncomfortable, but he knows very well that he must grit his teeth and hold on, because this will be a matter of life and death.

For about half an hour, there was no movement in it,

Dong Guo Feng's hunchbacked body stood at the door, fearless of the pouring of heavy rain, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, the clothes on his body were gradually soaked, and his face became a little pale, as if he would fall down at any time.

"Daddy!"

Dong Guo Yue couldn't help it, his father's body, even if he was lying on the sickbed, might not be able to survive for long, now that it is raining here, he will suffer a serious illness and his vitality will be greatly damaged, I am afraid that time is running out.

"Quiet!"

Dong Guofeng's hand was strong, supporting the crutches to prevent his body from falling, and his expression was as calm as ever.

……

"If you don't see me, you won't leave? He's going to take me into the army! Mu Jing heard Huo Yu's report and sneered a little.

"Lord, Dong Guofeng seems to have gotten out of the carriage and is staying in the rain, almost half an hour has passed, I'm afraid his body won't last long!" Huo Yu said.

"In the rain?"

Mu Jing raised his head, looked at the torrential rain outside from the window, his eyes flickered slightly, and sneered: "This old fox is really ruthless to himself, he still has half a life left, and now he wants to lose his whole life here!" ”

is the so-called willing to dare to pull the emperor off the horse.

The old fox is desperately thinking.

He's gambling on his life.

Will he let him die in the rain outside?

If ordinary people are drenched in the rain, there is naturally nothing, and they can't die if they get drenched, but after all, this is an old man, and his health is already very bad, and a heavy rain can take away his life if he gets sick.

In this way, Mu Jing is in a dilemma.

Although he wanted to cure these salt merchants and tycoons, and wanted to deal with them, he didn't plan to use rivers of blood to accomplish this, and if he really wanted to kill, he wouldn't have to do a lot of things.

What he wants is a new salt order, and he doesn't care who will run the salt.

If Dong Guo Feng dies outside the Minghou Mansion, then many things will turn sour, and it seems that the Minghou Mansion is ruthless, and many salt merchants who have already shaken their minds will probably end up standing on the opposite side of the Minghou Mansion.

If they can't see the existence of hope, they will desperately survive, even if it is the opposite.

"Lord, what should I do now, can I see you?"

Liu Jin was also a little surprised, this Dong Guo Feng was really desperate, he thought about it and said, "Why don't I go and see him, stabilize him first!" ”

"Forget it!"

Mu Jing waved his hand: "Since this old guy is iron-hearted, he should also have an idea in his heart, we are hiding, but it seems stingy, since he wants to see, then see it, I want to see what kind of price he can pay!" ”

"Huo Yu, you go and invite him in!" Mu Jing said.

"No!"

Huo Yu gave up his hand and left.

In the middle of the day, Huo Yu invited Dong Guo Feng in, and at this time, Dong Guo Feng's whole body was already soaked, his wet robe was covered with water traces, and his hair was scattered, and he was an old beggar.

"Old decay for Dong Guo Feng, meet Lord Minghou!"

Dong Guo Feng trembled and knelt down and saluted.

"Feng Lao, why is this so!"

Mu Jing saw this scene, after all, he felt a little unbearable, no matter what, this is an old man, he said in a deep voice: "Come on, immediately go bathe and change clothes for Feng Lao, change into a robe, don't let him fall ill, go to the doctor's side, invite a doctor to come over, take precautions!" ”

"No!"

After a few answers, the movement was fast.

Huo Yu took Dong Guofeng to a wing room behind Zhaoming Pavilion, and then arranged for someone to bathe him, changed his clothes, invited a doctor, diagnosed him, let him drink a little ginger soup, and prescribed some medicine to get rid of the wind and cold.

It took nearly an hour to get it down, and Dong Guo Feng appeared in the hall of Zhaoming Pavilion again.

"Feng Lao, sit down and rest first, let you suffer, in fact, this is also a complaint, a certain day, some physical discomfort, the doctor instructed, rest more, so I ordered not to see outsiders, so as not to spread the cold and harm others and yourself!"

Mu Jing opened his eyes and said nonsense very carefully, after all, he had to experience the faces of these old guys, and it was better to stabilize them.

"It's the old decay that came at the wrong time, it's the old decay that disturbs the cultivation of the prince and the marquis!"

Dong Guofeng also recovered some of his spirits at this time, he raised his head and looked at Mu Jing carefully, and suddenly, he felt the terrible thing about this young man, while stabbing the knife, he could still smile and be polite to you, this is the hero.

This young man, very young, but terrible.

Now he regrets it a little, he was too optimistic before, thinking that the Dongguo family could control the salt business, so he was not afraid of a hairy boy, but now it seems that he is too naïve, and he underestimated this young man who can take Yizhou from Liu Junlang.

"Old Feng, looking for me in such a hurry, I don't know what's going on?" Mu Jing asked with a smile.

"Junhou, the old man gave the order to kill Yu Zhen and Li Kui!" Dong Guofeng's sudden words made Mu Jing react a little.

What does this mean?

Mu Jing wants to pretend to be confused, you are confused, I am confused, everyone will discuss the conditions and solve the matter, hello, I am good, everyone, if there is anything wrong, then put it at the bottom and fight.

You've turned your face over when you came up, which makes me very embarrassed.

"Feng Lao, have you read "Mingke"?" Mu Jing sighed.

"Read!"

Dong Guo Feng said: "The murderer will pay for his life, and he will be executed after the autumn, and Dongshi will be beheaded!" “

"I know, if you still do it, is it to provoke Benhou, or to provoke the laws and regulations set by my Minghou Mansion!" Mu Jing said lightly.

"The old man will never dare to provoke the prince and the marquis, nor dare he dare to provoke the laws and regulations of the Ming Marquis Mansion!"

Dong Guofeng said softly: "I am willing to bear the responsibility for this matter!" ”

"And then?" Mu Jing said a little lazily.

"Please also ask the prince to raise his noble hand and give my Dongguo family a way to live, no matter what the prince wants, Dongguo Feng is willing to offer it with both hands!"

Dong Guofeng knelt down and kowtowed respectfully.
