Chapter 1000 Suspicion in the General’s Mansion (2)
The Central Plains people are really scary!Someone couldn't help shaking.

Looking at the terrified crowd with satisfaction, Tianshu's cold eyes were filled with joy.Looking at Tianxuan, the two turned around and went back to the palace, leaving only a group of envoys from various countries stunned.These three assassins were just trying to make an example to others.After seeing what happened to these people, the rest will understand what can and cannot be done.

The next morning, Mu Qingyi woke up on horseback.When she opened her eyes, the sky was already bright, and the faint morning light shone on her body, making the early autumn in the Western Regions more warm.In the morning, before dawn, Rong Jin and his party were ready to set off, which disturbed Mu Qingyi's sleep, and also saved her from having to worry about explaining all kinds of things that Rong Jin didn't think she needed to explain. Young Master Rong Jiu ordered her directly. The acupoints carried the man on the horse and left, leaving only Rong Yang and his party staring at the figure of Young Master Rong Jiu riding away on the steed.

Opening her eyes, Mu Qingyi frowned uncomfortably due to the bumpy horseback.

"Qingqing, are you awake?" Rong Jin whispered in his ear.

"Where are you?" She glanced at someone helplessly, and Mu Qingyi didn't bother to pursue someone's self-assessment.Young Master Rong Jiu smiled proudly: "It's already more than 30 miles away from Yutian King City. If Qingqing wakes up, let's rest for a while and have some breakfast before leaving." Mu Qingyi nodded and left before dawn It was also to deceive others, lest Ge Shuhan know Rong Jin's plan in advance.

They did not take away any soldiers from the Western Regions, only Rong Jin and Mu Qingyi took Tianshu, Tianxuan and a few other guards on their way.After hearing Rong Jin's words, everyone immediately got off their horses and stopped in a forest near a stream.Those who light the fire light the fire, those who hunt hunt hunt, and start to make breakfast.Mu Qingyi and Rong Jin sat side by side by the stream, watching the clear fish swimming freely.

Rong Jin raised his eyebrows, flicked his fingers, and shot out from between his fingers.A few three- to four-inch-long small fish jumped up from the water, and were sent by a palm wind to the feet of Tianxuan who was making a fire not far away.Tianxuan stared blankly at the lively fish that suddenly landed at her feet, then couldn't help but smile at the two people sitting not far away, and said, "It's just a good time to make a fish soup." She is exquisite, but Mu Xiang's body is a little weaker than that of ordinary women.It's not good if you are too tired and sick along the way, but it's better to make up for it when you can.

Not far away, a guard immediately stepped forward, picked up the fish and took it downstream to deal with, while thinking about whether to catch more or not.His Majesty's internal strength is superb, he did not expect that even this ability to catch fish with his hands is so good.It is really enviable to catch several fish without any tools, even without touching the water.

Mu Qingyi looked back with some amusement and said, "You don't have to be so troublesome." Rong Jin snorted softly, "What kind of trouble is this? It takes about ten days to travel all the way to Xiaocheng. It's very hard." The terrain of Xiaocheng across the border is not as flat as that of Huaguo and Northern Han Dynasty. There are high mountains and steep mountains, and the twists and turns are not easy to walk. Hard work is inevitable.

Leaning in his arms, Mu Qingyi said with a slight smile, "No matter how difficult it is to walk, I'm very happy. If it was before... I never thought that there would be such a day."

If it had been ten years ago, someone had told her that one day she would become the prime minister of a country and that she would gallop across the battlefield with a man, she would never have believed it no matter what.Even when she was engaged to Murong Yu at the beginning, she just thought that she only needed to be a good wife and princess, and never thought that she would do something for a man that was not something that a lady should do.But now... Leaning in Rong Jin's arms, Mu Qingyi smiled slightly, and stood side by side with this man, no matter what she did, she never considered whether she should or should not.As long as he is around, she will stand with him without hesitation.

"Can we hide our whereabouts from brother Shujun?" Mu Qingyi asked with a frown.Rong Jin didn't care too much, and said lightly: "It's really not easy to keep a secret, but as long as you can keep it for a few days, it's enough." The distance between the Imperial City of the Northern Han Dynasty and the King City of Yutian is not close, and it only takes a few days at night. , even if the news got out, they would have already arrived in Xiaocheng by the time Ge Shujun got the news.Mu Qingyi nodded and said: "Then just try your best to travel these few days. I can bear it, and I just need to go back to Xiaocheng and rest slowly. No matter how bad Xiaocheng is, it is much more suitable for rest than the Western Regions."

Rong Jin looked down at her beautiful face, and said, "I know it well, don't worry."

A group of people rushed all the way, and in less than two days, they had entered the territory of Xiyue, and then traveled all the way to the northeast, heading for Xiaocheng, a border city between Xiyue and the Northern Han Dynasty.Xiaocheng is the largest border city on the border between Xiyue and Northern Han, and it is also the place where Nangong Jue led his troops to station, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Xiyue troops.

The group of people felt that nearly half a month had passed since the time of Pancheng.Dismissing the accompanying guards, Rong Jin only brought Mu Qingyi and Tianxuan into the city.As soon as I entered the city, I found that the city was heavily guarded. Although it was not closed to the point where no entry and exit were allowed, there were many more soldiers patrolling the streets than other places.Walking on the side of the street, Rong Jin frowned slightly.Tianxuan whispered: "Your Majesty, it seems that something happened."

Rong Jin nodded slightly, glanced at the General's Mansion not far away, pulled Mu Qingyi and turned around, and walked into a tea house on the side of the street.Now the Northern Han Dynasty and Xiyue have officially fought, and the bustling teahouses in the past are empty.The shopkeeper sat dozing off at the counter in the lobby.Hearing the sound of Tianshu tapping the counter, the shopkeeper woke up, and couldn't help being stunned when he saw Tianxuan.Tianxuan raised her eyebrows and smiled, "What? Don't you know me?"

The shopkeeper quickly got up, looked around cautiously, and then looked at Rong Jin and Mu Qingyi who were standing aside.Tianxuan said: "This is the young master and the madam." The shopkeeper's face turned one side again, and he walked out quickly and said: "Please invite me."

After entering the upstairs wing room and sitting down, Mu Qingyi asked curiously: "Tianxuan, this teahouse..."

Tianxuan smiled and said: "Return to Mu Xiang, this teahouse is indeed the property of Tianque City." The shopkeeper respectfully bowed to the two, "I have seen Your Majesty, and I have seen Mu Xiang."

Rong Jin nodded slightly, and Mu Qingyi said with a smile: "Get up, isn't business going well these days?" The shopkeeper smiled apologetically, "Returning to Mrs. Mu, it's really not very good."

Mu Qingyi frowned and asked, "What happened?" Although it is common for businesses to wither during wartime, the flames of war never ignited in the territory of Xiyue. It's kind of weird.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The subordinate also sent someone to inquire about it, and I heard... something happened to the old general Nangong."

"General Nangong?!" The three of them were startled, Mu Qingyi and Rong Jin looked at each other, and asked with frowned eyebrows, "Do you know what else is going on?" The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "A few days ago, General Nangong and General Beihan fought. Originally, I had already won a city and should have continued to attack the city with all my might, but General Nangong suddenly led his troops back three days ago. The General’s Mansion was also strictly guarded and outsiders could not find any news. Based on my guess, General Nangong is very Possibly seriously injured."
