On the official road.

A team was marching, all cavalry, about a thousand people, thousands of horses, mighty, heading north in the wind, the speed was very fast, as if a gust of wind was blowing.

This is Mujing's team.

Entering the territory of Nanyang, even if Mu Jing wants to be low-key, it is a little difficult to be low-key, since the signboard is displayed, then you have to be careful, in addition to the Shenwei Battalion, Zhang Huo personally led the elite escort of the six doors.

Mu Jing is good at riding horses, but there is some rejection of riding a carriage, although it will be very uncomfortable to ride a horse for long distances, even if there is a saddle, and the cushion comes to the soft cushion, a layer of skin will still be worn between the two strands.

But even so, the feeling of riding a horse is much better than the depression of sitting in a carriage.

"Lord, there is a small river ahead, we can replenish some water sources, take a rest, replenish our strength, and before evening, we should be able to enter Xinye!" Zhang Huo came to report.

"Okay!"

The ranch nodded, marching on horseback is a very tiring thing, people are tired and tired, and when the time is right, they must rest.

A group of people temporarily camped on the edge of the stream, Zhang Huo was responsible for vigilant Quartet, although Nanyang was swept by Zhou Cang's army once, but Nanyang has been in chaos over the years, because of the chaos of the war, there are countless thieves in an endless stream.

Although they are not afraid, they have to guard against it.

If all the princes of the world blocked it, but it was folded in the hands of some thieves, then the signboard of the Minghou Mansion could be disgraced thousands of years later.

So it is necessary to be on guard.

"Pass the order, set up a pot to boil water, and all the water replenished by the bamboo tube must be boiled!" Mu Jing glanced at it and said lightly.

In this era, there was no emphasis on hygiene.

But because the primitive environment is good, the water source is not complicated, and it is okay to eat under normal circumstances, but Mu Jing still has to set an example and develop better living habits, so every time he travels, he will ask that the water must be boiled.

"No!"

Jiang Wan quickly arranged it.

"listless, are you still angry that I will do whatever it takes to let you out?" Mu Jing sat on a piece of bluestone, his eyes couldn't help but squint, and the kiss next to him raised a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The subordinates don't dare!"

Xu Shu stood not far from Mujing, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Don't dare means that you have this kind of resentment!" Mu Jing doesn't care much about Xu Shu's mentality, Xu Shu is a person who needs to be sharpened slowly, he is confident that he can grind out Xu Shu's ability, he smiled and said, "Then I'll say one more thing to add some resentment to you!" ”

"What's the matter?" Xu Shu became vigilant, he really couldn't figure out the mind of the young male lord in front of him, whether it was his thoughts or practices, he was a little imaginative, and he did things regardless of any reputation, and it was even terrifying.

"I have already sent someone to Yingchuan to take your mother next, and I will receive Xiangyang in the near future!"

Mu Jing said lightly.

Xu Shu has the ability, but he is stupid and filial.

The weakness is too obvious.

It's easy to be grasped, and it's because of this in history that he wasted his life.

Liu Bei made mistakes, Mu Jing must take this as a warning, he must not make it, recruit talents, and learn to protect talents, if he fights with Cao Cao in the future, let Cao Cao make such a move, he must not cry to death in the thatched house.

"You ......"

Xu Shu's face suddenly became gloomy: "With this as a threat, you are not a son of man!" ”

He instinctively thought that Mu Jing would take it and pinch him.

This disgusted him.

"Threatening you?" Mu Jing said lightly: "I like to threaten people, but now that you are under my account, do I need to do more?" ”

"Then what does Minghou mean by this?"

Xu Shu took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and asked coldly.

"I like to threaten people, but I hate being threatened!" Mu Jing looked at Xu Shu and said: "I forced you to go out of the career, it is my means, but it is undeniable that it is also you Xu Shu who is good at breaking through, the more you worry, the more vulnerable you are to be threatened, the means I can use, others can too, I can't give them such a chance!" ”

"Let me ask you, if you are facing each other on the battlefield, you are in command on behalf of our army, but the enemy army is holding his mother under the city, what choice can you make?" Mu Jing asked.

Historically, Xu Shu made a choice, some people admired, and some people were scolded, since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been in a dilemma, whether it is the loyalty and filial piety that has been given up, or the righteousness that has been given up, it is all wrong.

Xu Shu's choice, no one can be responsible, because this is originally a proposition, just like his wife and mother fell into the water at the same time, and whoever he chooses will die.

Therefore, Mujing will never allow this kind of thing to happen, and eliminating the source is the solution.

"Who would be so shameless?" Xu Shu gritted his teeth, his eyes looked at Mu Jing coldly, as if he was complaining.

"You just say that I am the most shameless in the world!" Mu Jing smiled, he could understand the resentment in Xu Shu's heart, if he was threatened like this, he would have turned his face directly.

Xu Shu was silent, this is a wordless affirmation.

"I have to admit that I'm a little shameless, but don't think the world is too beautiful, if you fight on the battlefield, it is life and death, blood flows like a river, and unscrupulous means are the king!" Mujing Road.

"Does Minghou plan to protect or put my mother under house arrest?" Xu Shu gritted his teeth and asked coldly.

"I didn't plan to!" Mu Jing said: "I sent someone to take them back to Xiangyang, it is prevention, not a threat to you, I Mu Jing is shameless, but there is still a bottom line, since I use you, I have to believe you, since I believe in you, I don't have to do more!" ”

"After taking your mother back to Xiangyang, how do you settle it, that's your business, you will settle down in Jiangzhou in the future, you can settle down in Jiangzhou, of course you don't like Jiangzhou, you can also settle your mother in Xiangyang, buy a house and buy land, all the costs, I will bear the Minghou Mansion!"

"But Yuan Zhi, I'll give you a piece of advice!"

Mu Jing said in a deep tone: "To be a man, the more you care about something, the more you don't care, you can keep it, this is a troubled time, you can't tolerate too much warmth, learn to be ruthless, you have a future!" ”

"Is it like Minghou?"

Xu Shu sarcastic.

"What's wrong with me?"

"Do things by any means!"

"No one is born to be a bad person, from the beginning to the present, we just want to live a little better, in fact, I regret that I didn't get a little faster, I just did things too leisurely and indecisively, and thought too much about the people in the world, and finally let my father die in Guanzhong, if I do it again, I will let myself become what I am from the beginning!"

Mu Jing responded lightly: "As long as I can keep the people I want to keep, I'd rather become more ruthless!" ”

"Your father?"

The former Han Dynasty was the prime minister of the country, Mu Yuanzhong.

That's a very taboo name.

Xu Shu's heart, moved slightly, he suddenly had a strong interest in the young male lord in front of him, how did he get to this day step by step, in the year of the weak crown, the southwest of the world, starting from scratch, to now holding more than ten counties, tens of millions of people and millions of soldiers, one side of the princes, his growth history, must be wonderful.

…………………………

Evening.

Mu Jing and his party entered Xinye.

Xinye is now considered the territory of Xiangyang County, belonging to the north gate of Xiangyang, and was an important gateway city to guard against Huangfu Song.

This time, Mujing was fanfare.

Xinye Ling, as well as the captain of the Xiangyang battalion stationed in Xinye, with many civil and military officials, have been waiting at the city gate for a long time.

"The last will meet the lord!"

"The lower official greets the lord!"

Seeing Mu Jing's procession, everyone knelt down and saluted.

"Get up!"

Mu Jing waved his hand and said, "It's all said, there's no need to do so many face-saving projects!" ”

"It is a ceremony to welcome the lord into the city!" The current Xinye Ling is a young man, Deng Zhi, the head of the Deng family, first joined the army, then entered politics, became Xinye Ling, and has been governing Xinye for more than a year.

"I can't talk about you readers!"

Mu Jing smiled, and glanced at the captain of the Xiangyang Battalion, Lei Bo.

Lei Bo seemed a little apprehensive at this time, he used to have a way back, but Yuan Shu collapsed, and now he can only hold the thigh of Minghou Mansion to death, but back then, he and Minghou Mansion didn't want to fight, so he was afraid that he would not be treated.

"Captain Lei, you're sweating a lot, are you tired, or are you afraid of me?" Mu Jing dismounted, with a devilish smile on his face, and asked Lei Bo.

"The last will be damned!"

Lei Bolian knelt down and said in a trembling voice.

"Get up!" Mu Jing helped him up: "Soldiers, you have to straighten your waist, don't ask for guilt if you don't understand, only ask for guilt!" ”

"Lord......" Lei Bo gritted his teeth.

"Afraid that I'll go through old accounts?"

Mu Jing smiled: "Under the command of Beiwutang, how many generals, they were not enemies back then, follow my Minghou Mansion, I am my general, the past, I will never be investigated, I will not violate the military law and military regulations, respect the Ming law, no one can help you, Minghou Mansion, there is no trumped-up charge, even if I want to kill someone, I have to have a name, you know!" ”

"The last general should be conscientious in the future and go to the soup for the Minghou Mansion!"

Lei Bo hurriedly expressed his loyalty loudly.
