Chapter 68: Plan Ahead
In fact, Jiang Liyue was using the agitation method, intending to pry open Spruce's tight mouth, but she never thought that she would not even find a gap, so she could only think that she was too sensitive.
Mu Yan has been away from the mansion for more than ten days, except for the few days when he was injured and unconscious, the rest of the situation has continued to send many letters to the mansion, but there has been no response for a long time.
It wasn't until the third day of his recuperation that he discovered the oddity.
On that day, he supported his body that had recovered a little bit and half-leaned on the bed, covered his lips and coughed slightly, Xiang Qing, who was guarding outside the house, saw that the situation in the house was not quite right, and hurriedly raised his hand and knocked on the door, and asked gently: "Childe, what is the matter?" I'm just outside, can I come in now? ”
Mu Yan was holding a scroll in his hand about dealing with local chaos, and he was silent for a long time when he heard the words, but in the end he only uttered a monosyllable: "Hmm." ”
Xiang Qinghou didn't distinguish the monosyllables he uttered clearly, and now thought that Mu Yan was in a situation inside, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to push the door open, and his steps were quite hurried.
Mu Yan listened to the movement, and only after a while did he look away from the scroll and sneered: "I have become more and more impatient in the past few days, and this is not a method." ”
Seeing that Mu Yan looked energetic and attached to the scroll, Xiang Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm not worried about your inconvenience, but Gongzi is really an extraordinary person, and I don't know how long it will take for ordinary people to recover from such injuries." ”
"Do you think my recovery time is too short? Do you think I need to be sick for a few more days before it makes sense? Okay, okay, I spent a lot of money to hire you kid to come back just to find guilt for yourself, you might as well just me off to death. ”
After Mu Yan's words fell, he stretched out his hand to look at the outside side of the bed as if he hated that iron could not become steel, and there was a slightly heavy muffled sound between the bed boards.
Seeing this, Xiang Qing thought that Fang Cai's words had really annoyed Mu Yan, who had always had a very good temper, and was a little difficult to ride a tiger at the moment, and said with a little embarrassment: "Childe, you misunderstood, how dare I have such an idea, it's just that we have been delayed here for a long time, and I'm worried that it will be difficult to explain in Kyoto." ”
After all, it is Jiang Chen who is in charge of Da Liang now, and if he delays in the Jizhou area for too long, he will inevitably arouse unnecessary suspicions, but if he leaves now, it will be a little test for Mu Yan's incomplete body and bones.
It was just when he was in a dilemma, Mu Yan let out a slightly pleasant laugh, which was a little ridiculous: "I'll just laugh with you, look at what it scares you into." ”
Xiang Qing was overjoyed, and in an instant, his gaze was fixed on Mu Yan again: "Childe is really joking with me?" That's fine, Childe doesn't know, you really scared me, and when you're better, let's go back to Kyoto, when you came back to Langzhong, you said that it's not convenient for you to make a big deal now. ”
Since Lang Zhong rescued Mu Yan from the ghost gate, he has a little bit of the meaning of treating people as gods descending from heaven, and whenever Mu Yan behaves inappropriately, he pulls Lang Zhong out as a shield.
But for some reason, this is very effective, in order to get better as soon as possible, Mu Yan really insisted on the book every day and leaned on the bed very calmly to read it.
This lasted for about four or five days, and thanks to the timely feeding of medicine to Qing Yuanqing and the two of them every day, most of his body recovered in three or two years.
After getting well, the group set off to prepare for the return to Kyoto after all the unresolved matters were properly dealt with in Jizhou.
A group of people under Zhao Yin's hand have been following him for a long time, and they also know a thing or two about the dispute in the ravine before, which can be described as dangerous, but because a few of them have only approached Mu Yan's side, it is not appropriate to identify themselves at this moment, and many matters can only be observed secretly.
As for the rest of the excessive actions that should not be on the surface, several of them are very well controlled, Mu Yan has been entangled in many things recently, and now he has a little less to look at the next group of people, Zhao Yin sent to Mu Mansion to observe Mu Yan before he can take the opportunity to contact him a few times.
After Zhao Yin learned of the situation, he wanted to help immediately, but because his identity was not suitable to be revealed now, so that people in the shadows could know the bottom of him, he could only hide his identity temporarily.
However, the people who had been following him for a long time knew that Zhao Yin was now very concerned about Mu Yan, and they also had a twelve-point spirit, otherwise they would be caught off guard by the last assassination, but it could really be said that they could not be prevented.
Now that the enemy is in the shadows, they can only take precautions, so as not to fall into the way of those who have hearts.
After Mu Yan completed the relevant matters in Jizhou and confirmed that there was no more trouble, he set off from the local post court to return to Kyoto.
Zhao Yin had already learned of the incident in Jizhou on the day Mu Yan was injured, and he had already come to guard outside the post court with Jinghe overnight.
Now he is only following behind Mu Yan, but he is not in a hurry to reveal his identity, he is only quietly protecting in secret, and by the way, he vaguely found out from the incident in the last ravine that the identity of the mastermind behind it is not very simple.
This worries him a little.
Mu Yan has closed his eyes since he got into the carriage, but after resting for a long time, some fragmented pictures of the ravine in his mind always flashed in his mind.
One of the masked men in black was all too familiar.
But where this skill came from, there is really no way to know.
Seeing Mu Yan in his sleep, he couldn't help frowning, and Yuan Qing, who was waiting wholeheartedly on the other side, was inevitably worried, and he lightly nodded Mu Yan's shoulder: "Son, are you still worried about the people of Jizhou?" But don't worry, they can live a good life for a long time with your help. ”
Mu Yan only shook his head and sighed: "How can the world be so simple, how can the local people seek peace for a few days, you and I must know this, but there is really no way to start." ”
"Childe is referring to those rogues who pretend to be disaster victims, right? In fact, except for this place, there are such disputes everywhere, if the prince is worried, I am afraid that it will really take some thought. ”
Mu Yan stretched out his hand and nodded his forehead: "I am an official in the court, and I should always think about the people of Daliang, you need to think more about it when you follow me, but you can't have this kind of force." ”
"Childe said so, I can't refute your kindness, as Childe said, I will definitely learn from you how to think about the people of Limin."
Mu Yan nodded with satisfaction: "Isn't this right, in fact, what's so difficult about this, it just depends on whether you are willing to do your best, if you are willing, when is not the time, you will see." In the future, when the people's lives are stable, we will be able to enjoy peace and prosperity. ”
After saying a few words, Mu Yan unconsciously followed the blood boiling, and when Yuanqing saw this, his expression was inevitably a little excited: "Childe is saying, will there really be that day, then I am willing to wait, maybe I can really wait for the peaceful and prosperous world that Childe said." ”
