Chapter 289 The Beginning of Guangxi's Second Year

The topic of getting married is too heavy, Mu Jing thought it could be delayed, so he fooled his old man with any reason. Naturally, Mu Shan didn't push too hard at such a festive time at the end of the year.

So the matter was put aside.

However, Mu Shan didn't let it go as Mu Jing thought. The next day, the first day of the first month of the second year of Guangxi, the first day of the new year, he invited Jiang Lu, his confidant's number one adviser, early in the morning.

"Haoming, Jing'er is fifteen years old, suitable for marriage!" The two of them wished each other a new year in the Yage in the courtyard, and after exchanging pleasantries, Mu Shan could only get down to business and asked, "Do you have any suggestions! "

"My lord, the prince seems to be quite in love with the Holy Maiden of Peace now!"

Jiang Lu said cautiously.

Some of Mu Shan's confidantes don't know that Zhang Ning, the saint of peace, lives in Taifu's mansion, and she is inseparable from Mu Jing.

They are also happy to see the success. After all, behind the Holy Maiden of Peace is the power of Taiping Dao. Taiping Dao is a sunset, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and the foundation of Taiping is still very strong. They also hope that this force can gather together Under Mushan's command.

In addition, most of Mushan's troops are from the Yellow Turban Army. Whether it is Huang Shao who is now in control of the Southern Army, Zhou Cang who is acting as an agent for the Violent Bear Army, or the Jingping Army who is stationed at Sishui Pass, most of the soldiers are from the Yellow Turban Army.

"Of course your highness wants to marry, and you must marry, but the status of your highness will never see the world!" Mu Shan sighed: "Our status today comes from the imperial court. Although it is unparalleled in power, it is also related to the life and death of everyone. If Let people in the court know that Jing'er is married to the Holy Maiden of Peace, the daughter of a great virtuous teacher back then, I'm afraid the whole world will turn against me!"

Since entering the imperial court and gaining the power to determine life and death with one word, Mu Shan's mentality has changed a lot. It's not that he is ungrateful, but his principles are not as strong as before. He has learned to compromise.

In today's world, it is still ruled by the Han Dynasty, if Mu Jing insists on marrying the daughter of a traitor, the Mu clan will be mobilized and attacked, and many courtiers gathered under the Mu clan will turn their backs.

"What does my lord mean?"

"Marriage!"

Mu Shan said in a deep voice: "Since entering this court, I have been walking on thin ice. I always feel that everyone around me wants my life. I know that this is because I have no foundation in the court. I don't want to die." Jing'er will do the same in the future!"

"Marriage is also a good decision!"

Jiang Lu immediately understood Mu Shan's meaning, he pondered for a while, and said: "But my lord, I have to communicate with the son about this matter, the son must not be deceived by his actions, if he hides the truth from the son, he will find out by then, I'm afraid the son will not So easy to talk about!"

"Marriage is an important matter, the order of parents!"

Mu Shan said forcefully: "Someone is in charge of this matter, you go to find a candidate today, even if he has complaints, he has to suppress him, hmph, this matter cannot be left to him!"

Hearing this, Jiang Lu smiled wryly. Following this powerful father and son is really not a good thing. He didn't want to disobey Mushan's decision, and he didn't want Mujing to complain in the future, so he changed the subject: "My lord, actually speaking of marriage, we and the Kuai family of Jingzhou But there is still a marriage to be concluded, and now the situation has stabilized a bit. Why don't you get married with the Kuai family first, the Kuai family is a Jingzhou gentry, and the Kuai family supports you. The lord is among the gentry, so it doesn't count as you It's all alone!"

"Kai Shi?"

Mu Shan squinted his eyes, and his eyes were a bit complicated.

He has never been to the capital, so he doesn't mind marrying with anyone, as long as he gets a profit.

But came to the capital.

That shadow of a beautiful woman is haunted by dreams and cannot be forgotten.

"Slow down this matter!" After a while, Mu Shan stood up slowly, with his hands behind his back, looking at the snow falling outside the window, and said softly: "When I was in Nanyang, maybe the Kuai family still intended to marry someone, with the same status and shared Advance and retreat, but now the situation is different, Kuai may not be willing to attach himself!"

"However, the matter of marriage can be publicized, and I want to test the reaction of the gentry!"

This is just an excuse.

Maybe he just wanted to know if she would care a little bit about that person in the palace when he was going to marry the Kuai family of Jingzhou.

……

……

Mushan is busy, and Mujing is also very busy. After the end of the year, they will have no leisure time. Mujing has to keep an eye on the movement in the salt market. Now the time for the decisive battle between the two sides is approaching. They almost capsized before, but now But keep an eye on him, and he has to interrogate Wang Yue every day.

Because he wanted to knock something out of Wang Yue's mouth.

In the violent bear military academy grounds, in the cellar cell.

"Kill the old man!" At this moment, Wang Yue no longer has the style of a sword master. Under his prison uniform, his body is covered in blood, and his eyes have lost their luster.

"Tell me I want to know!"

Sitting far away, Mu Jing said calmly, "Forgive you!"

"Kill the old man!"

Wang Yue still said the same thing.

"Then go on!"

The corners of Mujing's mouth slightly raised, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, and he said to the people around him: "Remember, it's just so exhausting, I want him to stay up all day and night!"

"promise!"

Several expert interrogators dispatched by Jingwu Division took the lead.

Mu Jing got up, walked out of the cellar, and looked up at Piaoxue: "The new year's snow is floating well!"

"How is it?" Xi Zhicai came up from the outside and asked.

He didn't want to enter the gloomy and dank cellar, so he waited outside.

"Old guy, your bones are tough!"

Mu Jing pouted.

"It's been several days, haven't you let him rest for a moment?" Xi Zhicai asked.

"On the first day and the second day, several whips were broken, and then there were only rats, I let them consume him like this, don't let him sleep, I want to see if his spirit can hold it how long!"

As Mu Jing walked in the wind and snow, his voice became gloomy and cold.

"What do you want to know?"

Xi Zhicai was a little puzzled: "Actually, you should know in your heart that the person who can send Wang Yue to assassinate you is not an ordinary person, but [-]% of them are from a wealthy family!"

"I just want to seal an idea in my heart!" Mu Jing said.

"idea?"

Xi Zhicai squinted his eyes and glanced at Mujing's back, but he still couldn't quite understand.

"Do you still remember Huben Zhonglang?" Mu Jing asked back as he walked.

"Yuan Gonglu!"

Xi Zhicai followed and said, "Isn't he forced to go back to Runan?"

"not him!"

Mu Jing shook his head, and said: "The name of Huben is unusual, and there have been few vacancies in history. Before Yuan Gonglu, there was someone who took the post of General Huben, but I checked the case collection, and there is no information about this person at all. !"

"General Huben, you don't think..."

"Wang Yue is the one who took the position of General Huben before Yuan Gonglu!" Mu Jing said.

This is what he calculated from memory.

In history, Wang Yue was depicted as an image of official fans. There was such a record-during the reign of Emperors Huan and Ling, Wang Yue was General Huben.Because he is good at swordsmanship, he has a very high reputation in the capital...

So Mujing thinks that this matter is not that simple.

"That's complicated!" Xi Zhicai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said in a low voice, "Could it be the first emperor?"

"do not know!"

Mu Jing said: "With Wang Yue, I'm afraid there is no breakthrough, but it can be used!"

"Who are you cheating on?"

"Whoever dances the most will be him!" Mu Jing sneered.

"My lord, this man said he wanted to see you!"

Mu Jing walked to the carriage on the school grounds. Before getting into the carriage, Tan Zong suddenly came up with a person to ask for an audience.

"Shi?"

Mu Jing narrowed his eyes and glanced at the young man: "Have you thought it through?"

"What can I do for you!" Shi A said gloomily.

"Someone will tell you!"

Mu Jing nodded in satisfaction: "I, Mu Jing, keep my word, you come to help me, because of your affection, I will not kill him, but I also said, I will not make him feel better , As for how he can live in the future, it depends on how much credit you have!"

"Can I see the teacher?"

Shi A asked hurriedly.

"Yes!" Mu Jing did not refuse, he waved his hand and said to Tan Zong, "Take him to see Wang Yue!"

In the Jingping barracks, not to mention Shi A, Wang Yue couldn't escape even after recovering his skills.

"promise!"

Tan Zong nodded.

Mu Jing and Xi Zhi got into the carriage, and the carriage headed towards Jingping Trading Company.

"If Shi A served you, would you really let Wang Yue go?" Xi Zhicai asked.

"meeting!"

Mu Jing said: "Wang Yue is old, even if he is powerful and swordsman, he won't live for long, his value is not great, but Shi A is a talent, he can win Wang Yue like this, it shows that the talent is extraordinary. For his teacher, he can disregard life and death, and his character can be seen. This kind of person will be recovered for a lifetime!"

"But it also shows that this kind of person has a firm mind. If you don't agree, stay by your side. You don't know when he will bite you back!"

"It's a challenge!"

Mujing had a confident smile on his face: "I hope for such a challenge!"

……

……

An hour later.

Jingping Firm.

Sitting cross-legged on a high seat, Mu Jing gazed at a map of the Luoyang market, and on the left and right were shopkeepers of commercial firms. At this moment, everyone's eyes became tense.

"Within ten days, I will take down Luoyang's salt market!"

Mu Jing said firmly.

This is the second year of Guangxi, and he will use this victory in the salt market as a start to tell the whole world that in the Guangxi Dynasty, their Mu family and his son will have the final say.

"As ordered!"

A group of shopkeepers unite as one.
