In the Shaoxing City Mansion, there are only two people left, Wang Qihe and Mu Qiang. As for Mu Xiaojiu, he had already left the mansion with the Qian Li Mo Hibiscus who had come over.

Sitting in the seat, Mu Qiang poured a large mouthful of tea into his mouth, and then said angrily: "Wang Zhutou, why did you agree to the gambling contract for me?" What a man! Really, people say that every righteous slaughter dog, I originally had a good impression of these bold martial arts people on weekdays, but this surnamed Mu is, he is a scoundrel! Yes, he's a scoundrel! As he spoke, Mu Qiang slapped the table heavily.

Before Wang Qihe could explain, Mu Qiang continued to say indignantly: "Originally, I was polite to him, but what about him? You're going to cut off my head at every turn, why are you? I'm a sugar man, he said that if he ate it, he would bite off my head with a bite of his neck, he belongs to a dog, he is a man! ”

Wang Qihe smiled bitterly, although he said that Mu Qiang hadn't said dirty words until now, but he knew that this was already something that Mu Qiang would say when he was quite annoyed. After all, no matter what, Mu Qiang is a scholar, and words like this are already very insulting in his opinion.

Seeing that Mu Qiang finally stopped talking, Wang Qihe persuaded him: "Okay, Brother Mu, dissipate your anger and dissipate your anger, I will promise the gambling contract for you for your own good." You said you were too, what are you choking on? Can you choke on him? Besides, you still question others, do you know that they are second-grade officials of the imperial court appointed by His Majesty, and they hold the position of special envoys, don't you see that Lu Junyu said that he would cut it, and he didn't frown? ”

"He's an official from the second rank? Appointed by His Majesty? Mu Qiang raised his eyebrows.

Wang Qihe nodded, thinking that Mu Qiang had figured it out, who would have thought that Mu Qiang directly spat and said, "Your Majesty is really confused for a while!" Why did you pick such a bastard to be an official? ”

Wang Qihe was startled, rushed forward and covered Mu Qiang's mouth, "Brother Mu! Brother Mu is cautious! Be careful! That's what you can say? ”

Although Mu Qiang slapped Wang Qihe's hand away, he also knew that he had lost his words, so he didn't say anything, but just snorted twice in annoyance.

Seeing this, Wang Qihe sighed again, "Oh, Brother Mu, you are a donkey temper, stubborn and stubborn." If you want me to say, Mu-sama is not wrong, if it were me, I would also want to cut off your head! ”

Mu Qiang stood up from the stool all of a sudden, "What did you say?" What do you mean you want to cut off my head too? Aren't all you martial arts students dogs? ”

Wang Qihe pursed his lips: "Do you know how chaotic Shaoxing City is now?" Do you know how many things are involved behind Lu Junyu? Master Mu has been a little anxious in the past two days, and he went out to investigate the case last night and was ambushed again, and almost died. I want to find someone to deal with the political affairs of Shaoxing, calm the people's hearts, and meet you again, a poor scholar, a sheng dou**, playing modesty with a scholar's shelf. You said that if this were to change you, would you want to kill yourself? ”

"Then, I'm a scholar, so why should I be polite. The prefect is such a big official, so it can't be said that he will take it next. It's better to be modest than to be modest......" As he spoke, Mu Qiang knew that he was at a loss, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he simply became mute in the back.

Wang Qihe didn't answer, just sat there and stared at Mu Qiang quietly. Mu Qiang didn't care, and stood for a while.

After a while, Mu Qiang shook his senses and slapped his head on the door.

Wang Qihe, who was drinking tea, was startled by Mu Qiang and almost folded off the stool. Why are you surprised? ”

Mu Qiang glanced at Wang Qihe, and said very formally: "I figured it out, I am indeed wrong in this matter, although a scholar should be humble, but at the moment of major events, I should also take responsibility." This time I am timid, pretending to be humble, it is my fault, I will not talk to you here. Saying that, Mu Qiang turned around and left.

Wang Qihe didn't care about cleaning up the tea stains on his body, and hurriedly asked, "Hey! Oops! Why are you going? This is in a hurry, you are in a hurry to reincarnate! ”

Mu Qiang didn't look back and said, "I'll go to Lord Mu to apologize!" ”

Wang Qihe was stunned for a moment, stood there and watched for a while, and then shook his head and said while rubbing his clothes: "Yes, these scholars, they will die for a while to save face and admit death; After figuring it out for a while, I don't want to save face, I'm afraid that there is something wrong with my brain. ”

……

"Speaking of which, how did you end up in Shaoxing City?" Mu Xiaojiu and Qian Li Mo Hibiscus sat on either side of the table, drinking and chatting at the same time.

"Isn't there a war at the border recently, and the war has been going on for a long time? Coupled with your feat some time ago, many people from the rivers and lakes went to the border to participate in the war. I had been living in seclusion in a small village, isolated from the rest of the world, concentrating on my internal cultivation. As soon as I came out some time ago, I heard about these things, so I was going to go to the border pass, which can be regarded as a contribution to the Central Plains. Qianli took a sip of the wine, and then stuck out her tongue, which seemed to be a little spicy.

Mu Xiaojiu was a little amused, and raised his hand to change the position of the two jugs of wine on the table, "After you poured the wine just now, the jug was misplaced. ”

Qian Li Mo Jin poured out the remaining spirits in the wine cup with palpitations, "This wine is too strong, I still prefer to drink another pot." ”

"Speaking of which, you are actually going to the border gate, then it may be a while before we can see each other again." Mu Xiaojiu smiled, and then drank the spicy and throat-burning wine in the cup in one gulp.

"Huh? Don't you go to the border? Qianli Mo Hibiscus was a little puzzled, "I thought you were going to the border to participate in this war." ”

Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, "No, I also want to go to the border pass, but not now, speaking of which, it is estimated that I will leave Shaoxing this afternoon." After all, there are more important things for me to do right now. ”

Qian Li Mo Jin smiled, "I thought that in your heart, the matter of the family and the country was a big thing." The words were full of fun for Mu Xiaojiu.

Mu Xiaojiu also laughed, his eyes full of reminiscence, "How is it possible?" The affairs of my family and country also have a certain status in my heart, but they are far from the highest. ”

"So, what are you going to do?" Listening to Mu Xiaojiu's words, Qian Li Mo Hibiscus couldn't help but become even more curious. At the same time, she was also thinking that Mu Xiaojiu had this kind of thought, and she didn't know if the emperor knew it.

Mu Xiaojiulong's left hand in his sleeve lightly pressed the handle of the red-clothed knife, "Me? I'm going to get my girlfriend back, she's a little princess waiting for me to rescue right now. ”

Qian Li Mo Hibiscus looked at Mu Xiaojiu's gentle smile and couldn't help but feel a little funny. It is said that the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, and it seems that this famous hero in the Central Plains martial arts will also bow down under his girlfriend's pomegranate skirt.

"That's right, this meal is regarded as a farewell drink. After drinking these wines, you also set off, and I will also set off. We'll see you on the battlefield at the border when the time comes. Chiri raised the cup in her hand.

Mu Xiaojiu also raised his glass, but said with a smile: "Maybe I will be reborn from the dead by then, besides, there are several border battlefields, and we may not be able to meet them." As for the next meeting, let's go with the flow. ”

Qianli Mojin laughed suddenly, it was the first time she saw someone say when they were separated that the next time they met would depend on fate. However, she didn't care much about this, because she knew that what Mu Xiaojiu said was very possible.

So, the wine arrives, the glass is dry. That's all.

And by the time Mu Qiang ran to Qiyu Building out of breath, Mu Xiaojiu and Qian Li Mojin had already settled the bill and left. In this regard, he could only shake his head and pause, feeling a little regretful, but there was nothing he could do.

But when he left, he had an extra letter on him. It's a pity that this letter was not for him, after all, Mu Xiaojiu never thought that he would be persuaded by Wang Qihe, and then ran over to apologize. This letter was actually written by Mu Xiaojiu to Wang Qihe, after all, he couldn't say goodbye without saying goodbye, and there were some things in Shaoxing City that still had to be arranged.

……

Along the way, Mu Xiaojiu did not have any delay, took the official road directly, and successively changed the fast horses at the post station, and traveled all the way. If you are sleepy, you can find a hidden place to rest for a while, and when you are hungry, you can directly nibble on two pieces of dry food on the horse. In this way, he finally arrived in the capital within two days.

And this day is exactly a month after what Wan Wan said to him.

At ten o'clock at noon, there were constantly pedestrians coming and going at the gate of the capital, and the flow of people was so large that soldiers had to be dispatched to maintain order. The noisy sound can't be compared to even the vegetable market.

And next to these countless pedestrians, Mu Xiaojiu stood there, looking at the towering city wall of the capital, silent.

He didn't hesitate, he was just adjusting his mood. After all, right away, he was going to find Wan Wan, and then embark on a trip to the Yin Sect to pick it up, or snatch it back from the hands of the Yin Sect.

Riding the wind and rain on the way, rain or shine, plus two days and one night without a good rest, he is actually very tired now. But for some reason, he was only excited in his heart.

Finally, after a long while, he collected his mood, took a step, and walked towards the capital. His destination is the Tilting Paradise in the capital.

On the third floor of the Tilting Paradise in the capital, Wan Wan sat in front of the window, feeling a little restless.

She didn't know if Mu Xiaojiu would come. On the one hand, she hoped that Mu Xiaojiu would come, because she didn't want to see Senior Sister Xiaoxian show that kind of distressed expression after learning that she was not entrusted; On the other hand, she didn't want Mu Xiaojiu to come, because both the master and the junior sister were her closest people, and she didn't want to see either of the two parties fail and get hurt.
