Chapter 456: Chu Yi
The sun climbed higher and higher, and finally stood firmly at the top of the sky.
Lu Xiaofeng, Sikong Jiexing, Ximen Blowing Snow, Hu Xiaoxian, and Li Xiaobai were all ready to leave, but Mu Duan did not return for a long time, so everyone did not leave.
At this time, it was already three poles of the sun, and it was said that from morning to noon, it should be impatient for anyone to change. But because they knew what Mu Duan was doing, none of these people had any impatience, and they were all waiting patiently.
The people who wanted to kill Chu Yi because of Chu Yi's crimes were not just Mu Xiaojiu. All of them were actually waiting for Mu Duan to come back and tell the result.
And Mu Duan lived up to expectations, and returned in a quarter of an hour.
As Mu Xuan's footsteps sounded in the backyard, everyone's eyes in the backyard looked at Mu Xuan. But seeing Mu Duan arching his hand at Mu Xiaojiu and said: "Son, Chu Yi returned home after leaving the mansion, I followed him all the way back, and after making sure that he packed up his things, entered the study, and told his subordinates not to, I tied him up." ”
Mu Xiaojiu's eyes lit up, and then nodded approvingly, Mu Duan smiled modestly and stepped aside. Immediately after, Mu Xiaojiu stood up directly, and then squinted his eyes and whispered, "Several, who wants to go with me?" ”
Lu Xiaofeng wanted to stand up with it, but after thinking about it for a while, he didn't do it, but said, "I know what you're going to do...... I'm afraid I'll be unable to resist you, so I'll forget it. ”
Although Lu Xiaofeng didn't stand up, Sikong Xingxing stood up, "Mu Gongzi, although I don't like killing people and bloodletting, but I'm not as decent as Lu Xiaoji." Let's go, such a happy thing, I want to take a look. ”
Ximen Chuixue naturally has no interest in this kind of thing, although Li Xiaobai has eased up now, but after all, he doesn't want to contact this kind of thing again in a short time, so he didn't follow Mu Xiaojiu and Sikong Xingxing. Hu Xiaoxian actually wanted to follow Mu Xiaojiu in her heart, but she also knew that she couldn't see that kind of scene, so in the end he also gave up.
In the end, only Mu Xiaojiu, Sikong Xingxing and Mu Duan were left to set off together.
Of course, fortunately, Sikong Xingxing also followed. If there were only two people, Mu Xiaojiu and Mu Duan, it would be impossible for the two of them to sneak over with light skills. But with the help of Sikong Xingxing, the three of them only need to simply change their appearance, turn out of the backyard, and then leave with a swagger.
When Chu Yi woke up again, he suddenly found that his memory was a little muddy, and the back of his neck was a little sore. When he finally sobered up a little, he finally realized that he was actually tied to a chair and his mouth was gagged.
Everything in front of him was very familiar, whether it was the table, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table, or even the furnishings and positions, they all clearly reminded Chu Yi that he was now in his study.
The doors and windows were so closed that there wasn't even a crack left. But the brightness left by the sunlight after passing through the window paper could still make Chu Yi judge that it should be noon.
Chu Yi began to think hard, what was his last memory fragment?
In the mansion, after Mu Xiaojiu left......
Chu Yi struggled to stand up, and the head catcher next to him wanted to come over to help him, but he pushed him away. He was still terrified, very frightened, so he didn't dare let anyone come near him.
And when he stood up, he finally found that except for the head catcher who was about to make a gesture to help him, everyone else looked at him with disgust and disgust, as if he was now a pile of dog dung. He remembered the flattering eyes of those people, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Of course, in addition to sighing, there is more resentment.
Moreover, even the head catcher who wanted to help him was gone. He could see it clearly, when the head catcher looked at him, what was in his eyes was actually just pity.
Pity, this word, Chu Yi never even thought about it, one day, this word will actually appear in other people's eyes, and it is aimed at him.
Chu Yi wanted to scold, but he didn't dare. So, he just smiled a little desolately, and then limped out against the wall. He didn't dare to walk too fast, because Mu Xiaojiu's kick broke his ribs, and if he walked fast, it would hurt even more.
He left the Ankang City Mansion, a place where he had been a powerful man for a long time.
Half a lifetime of hard work, but overnight, it has been in vain, and all of them have been turned into ashes. But Chu Yi can get to this point, and he is obviously not a person who can't afford to lose.
He's flattering, he's cowardly, he's dirty, but he's not someone who can't afford to lose.
Just ask, people who can step by step to the position of prefect may have all kinds of shortcomings, but at the very least, each of them is not a simple person.
The so-called flattery and cowardice are actually just Chu Yi's ways of self-preservation. At the same time, he is also a smart man, and he is also very forbearing.
At the moment when he walked to the yamen, Chu Yi stuffed the incriminating evidence that Mu Xiaojiu had thrown on his face into his clothes, and then endured the pain, straightened his waist, and walked out of the Ankang City Mansion with his head held high as in the past, or as if he was still the prefect of Ankang City.
Walking in such a posture with a broken rib is a torture with every step. But Chu Yi didn't want to appear in front of the residents of Ankang City in the image of a water dog.
Even though, he was ready for that in his heart.
But he still didn't want to walk like a dog, although he was already trying his best to hold his head high, but this was still the first time that the people in Ankang City saw him walking alone on the road. Therefore, being pointed at and talking about this kind of thing behind his back, Chu Yi still couldn't avoid it.
However, he turned a deaf ear to all this. He's tried his best to do his best, and if he's still being talked about, there's nothing he can do.
In this way, enduring the severe pain coming from his body, as well as the fear that swelled up from time to time in his heart, Chu Yi returned to his house step by step. When the servant spoke to him, he nodded lightly, ignored it, and went straight back to his room and began to change his clothes.
After changing his clothes, Chu Yi took a deep breath, straightened his color, and then pushed the door open.
