Chapter 351: The Dark Tide is surging
The capital at night has begun to get colder and colder. The husband who played the shift brought a small bottle of liquor with him, and when he was fine, he would always take it out and take two sips, which could finally warm his body.
People say that an autumn rain is cold, but now that the autumn rain has not fallen a few times, it is getting colder and colder in the capital. The farmers around the capital are very happy, if this continues, this year's snow may not be small, so that next year's crops may be bumper - after all, as the saying goes, the snow is a good year.
Mu Xiaojiu and the others were sitting in the room where three braziers were lit, and they were still drinking, so they definitely didn't feel how cold they were. And even if it's really cold now, it's really nothing to these people, because their blood is already hot. And the reason why the blood is hot is precisely because of what Mu Xiaojiu said, and even more because of the hand that Mu Xiaojiu and Su Mengzhen withdrew into their sleeves.
The string in everyone's heart was tightened, and a big war seemed to be about to break out. But at this moment, Mu Xiaojiu's hand that was withdrawn into his sleeve suddenly stretched out, and instead of holding a knife, he took out a copper coin.
"Don't be so nervous, I'm just having enough of playing with wine glasses, and I just want to play with something else. Master Su, your hand has been retracted into your sleeve for a long time, and I haven't seen you stretch it out. No, you haven't touched the copper plate. It's okay, it's okay, don't worry, I still have it here. Saying that, Mu Xiaojiu was really about to take out the copper plate.
Su Mengzhen's face became more and more ugly, and Bai Choufei said directly in a deep voice: "The surname is Mu, you are talking a lot here, maybe it is just to delay time." ”
Mu Xiaojiu turned a deaf ear to Bai Choufei's words, and even his expression did not change.
"Master Mu, why didn't this kid talk to you, and you didn't even reply a word." At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, startling everyone. And this old, spy voice and the title of the owner of this voice to Mu Xiaojiu made everyone's faces darken.
Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, and a smile appeared on his face, "Grandpa Kui, let you laugh, I may not like to talk to dead people." ”
As soon as Mu Xiaojiu's words fell, Grandpa Kui laughed directly, and when the laughter first appeared, his figure had not yet appeared in everyone's eyes. The moment the laughter fell, Aoi's father-in-law suddenly appeared in the middle of the room, and no one in the room could see his movements clearly, even though there were so many people in the room.
"Heh, it seems that Master Mu can drink more." Aoi's father-in-law smiled and stretched out his hands behind his back, "But Lord Mu, before leaving, Xiaohuazi specially reminded you to remember to bring the package, since you haven't drunk too much, how can you forget about it?" ”
Listening to the conversation between the two people that kept coming from his ears, Su Mengzhen's heart sank a lot. He now finally knew where Mu Xiaojiu got the confidence to say, "No one will die tonight".
But he was not reconciled, he still wanted to say more, "Father-in-law Aoi, are you just here tonight to help this Lord Mu deliver packages?" ”
Father-in-law Kui, who had been looking at Mu Xiaojiu since he came in, finally glanced at the people around him for the first time, and then spoke: "Su Mengzhen, you are good, you didn't lose your father Su Mu's face. But it's a pity, although 'no doubt' is good, it is not a means that a superior person should have. Compared with the owner of the Golden Wind Drizzle Building, you are more suitable to be a chivalrous guest. ”
Grandpa Kui's words sounded like he didn't seem to answer Su Mengzhen's question, but Su Mengzhen's heart completely sank to the bottom. Father-in-law Aoi's words had already made Su Mengzhen understand what kind of attitude Father-in-law Aoi had.
Therefore, Su Mengzhen coughed again, this was the third time he coughed tonight, but this time the cough was very light and shallow, Su Mengzhen only coughed two or three times, and then he didn't cough more.
Father-in-law Kwai looked at Su Mengzhen with some pity, shook his head and sighed, and then suddenly sighed: "It's old, it's really old." Look at you young people, six and a half halls, golden wind drizzle building, it's so good, it's so good. ”
Di Feijing, Su Mengzhen, Lei Chun, Bai Choufei and even Mu Xiaojiu, the pupils of these five people contracted at the same time. After a while, Di Fei sighed in shock, a touch of sadness passed under Su Mengzhen's eyes, and the expressions of Lei Chun and Bai Choufei froze at the same time.
Only Mu Xiaojiu, he suddenly laughed with relief.
"Master Mu, let's go, when I just went back, Your Majesty was drunk like that, and specially asked me to come out and send you back. Otherwise, I wouldn't have noticed that you didn't have this package. Father-in-law Aoi, who had seen everyone's expressions, nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Mu Xiaojiu with a very kind smile.
Mu Xiaojiu nodded, "Old Di, let's go." ”
Di Fei was startled in response, and pulled Lei Chun up by the way, and the three Mu Duan who were sitting next to Mu Xiaojiu also stood up one after another.
After Mu Xiaojiu got up, he didn't leave in a hurry, but raised his wine glass and saluted Su Mengzhen and Wang Xiaoshi, "Two, I'm sorry, let's leave it like tonight." ”
Su Mengzhen stood up expressionlessly, "It's good to go, don't send it." And Wang Xiaoshi, who saw that the eldest brother had responded, also got up and returned: "Walk slowly." ”
The three of them drank a full glass of wine, Mu Xiaojiu held the empty cup, and suddenly threw it in front of Bai Choufei, who had a hideous look in his eyes, "Live well, wait for me to take your head." ”
After speaking, Mu Xiaojiu didn't care about Bai Choufei's reaction, and took the lead in walking out behind Grandpa Kui.
After leaving this courtyard, Di Fei grabbed Lei Chun in shock, let Lei Chun swallow all the doubts in his heart back into his stomach, and then arched his hand at Mu Xiaojiu, "Xiao Jiu, let's separate." This time you come back, in order to celebrate your success, Lord Cai gave you a small courtyard, and the two keys are in the hands of your Senior Sister Mei and Mr. Mu, Mr. Mu knows the road, and he can take you back. ”
Mu Xiaojiu nodded, "Okay, then let's do it first." ”
After parting, Lei Chun suddenly spoke: "Tonight's matter ......"
Di Fei sighed in surprise again, "Don't tell your father about the things in the restaurant, you don't have to worry about tonight's affairs, I will tell him the truth." During this time, you should be careful yourself, the sky is going to change in the capital. ”
Lei Chun was a little stunned, then nodded lightly and did not speak again.
On the other side, after Mu Xiaojiu and Father-in-law Kwai sent Mu Duan, Sun Xiaoya, and Li Xiaobai back, they did not go back to rest, but continued to follow Father-in-law Kwai in the direction of the palace.
"Master Mu is indeed smart." Walking on the empty path of the capital, Father-in-law Kui suddenly said without a head: "That Di Feijing, as well as Su Mengzhen, Bai Choufei, and even that little girl Lei Chun, are not simple characters." ”
"Aoi's father-in-law praised it falsely." Mu Xiaojiu first said modestly, he naturally understood what Grandpa Kwai said, "Lao Di is naturally not simple, among all the people here today, if you really stand up and occupy a high position, Lao Di is called second, and no one can be the first." He went down, and it was Miss Lei Chunlei. As for Su Mengzhen and Bai Choufei, although both of them are heroes, they both lack something. ”
Aoi smiled and nodded.
"But speaking of which, isn't Your Majesty also a not simple character?" Mu Xiaojiu suddenly seemed to think of something interesting, raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Just for Your Majesty's acting skills tonight, and this decisiveness, Your Majesty is worthy of the title of the Son of Heaven." ”
This was a bit offensive to say, but Grandpa Kui didn't blame Mu Xiaojiu, but said: "That's right, there's no way, Your Majesty is really angry this time." The land of the Central Plains is now stormy, and the strong enemy is outside, but these people are still thinking about their own things all day long. Don't they always say that if you go outside, you must first settle inside? This time, His Majesty intends to let them understand what it means to be outside the outside and inside first. ”
Mu Xiaojiu didn't answer anymore, because the two of them had already walked out of the alley, and in front of them was the majestic outer wall of the imperial city.
"Speaking of which, you really don't blame Di Fei for tonight's incident?"
Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, "It's not weird." ”
Father-in-law Kwai stopped and looked at Mu Xiaojiu with interest, "Oh? You should know about those means he has out there. Even if he didn't have me tonight, he would be injured at most, and he would never have to worry about his life. ”
Mu Xiaojiu also stopped: "I know his methods, why doesn't he know that I will know his ambush?" What's more, his methods are for dealing with others, not for me. Su Mengzhen never doubts, I actually never doubt it, and I believe that in Lao Di's eyes, I should be regarded as his never doubt. ”
Aoi nodded thoughtfully and continued to walk towards the palace. After a long while, seeing that he was about to reach the foot of the imperial city, Grandpa Aoi said again: "Your Majesty trusts you, after all, there is a reason. I believe that Your Majesty has not misjudged anyone, and I have lived for so many years, and I believe in my own tricks, so I will not misjudge you. ”
……
Since Father-in-law Kwai left with Mu Xiaojiu and his party, Su Mengzhen has been silent, nor has he drunk, just sitting there quietly.
Bai Choufei didn't speak, but his hands kept shaking. And the one who was thrown in front of him by Mu Xiaojiu had already been smashed by his fingers.
"Big brother, what do you think?" After a long time, Bai Choufei finally stopped trembling and asked.
Su Mengzhen shook his head, "What do you think?" What else could I think? Everything is still going according to the original plan. ”
Wang Xiaoshi's complexion changed greatly, "Big brother! Think again! ”
Su Mengzhen laughed at himself, "Think twice? Why don't I think twice...... But this matter must be done, and everything is still done according to the original plan, but Chou Fei and Xiao Shi, one of the two of you may not be able to participate, and I have other things to do with you. ”
