Chapter 111 Mu Qinghong 
Mu Zhengbai was so hungry that he couldn't even eat as much as coarse steamed buns after being imprisoned for these days. At this time, he gnawed on the steamed buns and swallowed them whole.

Mu Zhengbai ate up all the steamed buns in his hand in a few mouthfuls. The tip of his nose moved, and his salivating eyes fell on the big bundle of the official beside him.

Inside that big baggage were a dozen big steamed buns that were steaming hot and fragrant, and they were all white-flour steamed buns!
He was so hungry that he swallowed a few times, looked at the young official next to him eagerly, rolled his eyes, and moved closer.

"Oh my God..." Mu Zhengbai straightened his expression and called out cautiously.

Mu Zhengbai did not dare to get close to an older official, for fear that he would be whipped accidentally.

He wanted to use his age to deceive these young officials.

The young official glanced at him angrily, with a bit of vigilance in his eyes. After all, Mu Zhengbai was famous for being a troublemaker!

Mu Zhengbai trembled at his threatening gaze, gritted his teeth, and stared at those white-faced buns with coveted eyes, really reluctant to give up.

"Master Cha, I think you have a kind face. Can you just listen to me and say a few words?"

The young official ignored him at all and ate his own steamed buns, pretending not to hear anything.

Mu Zhengbai didn't feel embarrassed at all, and he started bragging again.

"Master Cha, aren't we about to arrive in Tongzhou? My father-in-law is the magistrate of Tongzhou, and I know him very well! Master Cha... give me two more steamed buns to eat. When I arrive in Tongzhou, I will definitely be in front of my father-in-law. Say more nice things!"

Mu Zhengbai kept his mouth shut, he was so happy with himself that he stared at the white steamed buns motionlessly, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

He was using his identity as father-in-law to flatter the young official in front of him, but unfortunately he was ignored at all.

"I'll take... I'll just take two steamed buns, okay!? Mr. Cha... then I'll ask my father-in-law to promote you and make you rich!"

Mu Zhengbai showed a somewhat crazy and confident look. He had already stretched out his dirty hands and planned to take the opportunity to touch two white-flour steamed buns and eat them.

"Crack!" A whip hit his outstretched arm hard, making a tooth-piercing muffled sound.

Mu Zhengbai let out a cry of pain, hurriedly retracted his hand, and kept breathing towards the burning scar on his arm.

The young official swung his bloody whip, sneered coldly, looked at him with a stern look, and lectured: "I will give you as many buns as you want. Next time, I will beat you to death!" "

Mu Zhengbai was so frightened that he nodded repeatedly. He could only look at those white-faced steamed buns again and sat back on the ground.

He accidentally turned his head and saw Mrs. Mutai holding a small piece of white steamed bun and feeding it to the little mouse with a half-coaxing smile.

Mu Zhengbai suddenly became angry. He clenched his fist heavily and waved it, while he let out an unclean curse!

He can only eat rough flour steamed buns, but that little hairy beast can eat white flour steamed buns!
Mu Zhengbai was so angry that he didn't dare to cause trouble and get whipped. He was so angry that he punched a few times out of thin air.

He swung it around hard and seemed to hit something unintentionally. There was a muffled grunt behind him.

"Are you looking for death!?" A low growl almost escaped from the teeth.

Mu Zhengbai looked over in panic, only to realize that he had just punched the man behind him in the face.

The punch he just made was thrown with deep anger, almost with all his strength, and it hit the person's face with enough force to imagine the force!

The sturdy man was squatting on the ground eating steamed buns and received a solid punch. At this time, his taut face was full of anger, which made his already vicious face even more penetrating.

At this time, there was a bright purple bruise on his face full of flesh, and the fists in his hands were clenched, staring fiercely at Mu Zhengbai who didn't know whether to live or die in front of him. "I...I didn't mean it..."

Mu Zhengbai was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly, but he was unable to dodge and received several heavy punches from the big man.

Under the punches and kicks, he let out painful wails, which echoed around him, but no one paid any attention to him.

The big man didn't dare to make a killing move. If he beat someone to death, the officials would cause trouble for him.

He beat Mu Zhengbai until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He stopped his hand and waved his fist, feeling relieved.

……

At noon, they simply rested for half an hour. The officers counted the number of prisoners and greeted everyone to get back on the road.

They walked out of the mountain path, and the official road happened to be in front of them.

Walking on the flat and spacious official road, they moved faster.

With such a large group of people walking on the official road, Li Jiang wanted to rush to Tongzhou as soon as possible and find other prisoners, but he didn't care about anything else and ordered his officers to march non-stop.

The afternoon sun was still hot, and now it was autumn, but it couldn't stop the dull heat that hit me. It was so stuffy that my head felt swollen, and I could only continue walking forward numbly.

Ruan He's family secretly drank a large sip of the refreshing potion while they were resting. Now they feel refreshed when walking, much more comfortable than other groggy prisoners.

In the distance, a horse's roar came, and the horse's hooves stepped on the fallen leaves, making a crunching sound.

The carriage driver was afraid of running into the large group of people, so the carriage driver hurriedly tightened his reins.

Ruan He inadvertently raised his eyes and looked over, his expression paused, and he subconsciously raised his eyebrows.

This carriage... looked familiar, she always felt like she had seen it before somewhere.

Unlike ordinary carriages, there was a complex and complicated pattern painted on the wall of the carriage, and the clothes on the carriage driver were particularly familiar.

This carriage... she had seen it once in the county town...

Ruan He stared at the familiar coachman and suddenly realized!
This is the carriage Mu Qinghong rode in last time!She had seen it in the county market, but she couldn't catch it and had to give up.

The next second, the curtain on the carriage opened a small crack, and the familiar female voice came out, which immediately fulfilled Ruan He's guess.

"Why did it stop?"

Obviously, it was Mu Qinghong's voice.

She opened the curtain and was about to get out of the carriage to take a look. When she met Mu Zhengbai's eyes below, she suddenly trembled with surprise and quickly retracted into the carriage.

With a casual glance just now, Mu Qinghong clearly saw the scene outside, which was a large group of exile brigade and official servants.

She was still a prisoner now, how could she let those officials see her? !

Mu Zhengbai was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his whole body was sore and his back was aching. Just when he was secretly angry, he happened to hear this familiar voice and suddenly looked towards the carriage, just in time to see the daughter he had been thinking about every day.
