Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 929 Siege, Song Chuxi's revenge! (1)
Snowy night.

In a town ten miles away from Beijing, the largest inn was booked by a group of merchants whose journey was blocked by wind and snow for half a month.

The family had a lot of ostentation, they were not used to the inn's clerk, and they gave a lot of money, anyway, as the year was approaching, the shopkeeper simply dismissed everyone in advance, and went home happily to prepare for the New Year.

In the largest wing room in the backyard, on a cold day, someone opened the window facing Zhengbei Tianjing, and in the night, a young nobleman with outstanding appearance could be seen standing in the room, frowning and thinking about something. .

"Master." A black-clothed dark guard from outside walked in, bowed his hands and saluted with lowered eyes.

"What's the situation in the capital?" Duanmutang asked.

His expression changed from his usual unscrupulous dandyism to a very serious and solemn expression.

"The latest news I just got is that the old Patriarch of Duanmu has appeared in the capital, and he should have gone to the palace with Miss Song Si at this moment." The dark guard replied, his expression and tone were still meticulous, showing no sense of contempt and beyond the moment.

Duanmutang frowned slightly, thoughtfully.

The woman who had been sitting on the chair in the corner behind him put down the teacup at this moment, got up and walked over, asking, "What about the young master?"

"There is no new order from the young master yet." The hidden guard replied, always behaved in a manner that respected Duanmutang, paused, and said again: "Everything should be in the young master's hands." It was planned and under control. Also last night, things went well. The Great Wall specially made deployments. When Miss Song Si's people broke into the posthouse and kidnapped the old lady, they took those who came from Duanmu's house The old slaves brought in were disposed of."

Duanmutang kept his expression cold and solemn, and said coolly: "Continue to pay attention to the movement over there..."

He said, hesitating for a moment as if he had some concerns, and then said seriously: "Just watch it first, don't act rashly without his order."

"Yes!" The hidden guard agreed, bowed and retreated, and closed the door behind him.

The woman walked over, looked out of the window at the snow, and then turned to Duan Mutang and said: "Young master, he has always planned strategies, not to mention ten years of sharpening his sword, this time the matter has been carefully planned and arranged. , Your Highness, are you still worried about him?"

Duanmutang pursed his lips, but the expression on his face never relaxed, he pulled the corner of his mouth coldly and said: "Of course I have nothing to worry about him, it's just - Song Chuxi is involved in this round, so I'm worried There is going to be an accident."

"Is Your Highness worrying too much?" The woman said: "Perhaps the young master is a bit special to that Miss Song Fourth, but after years of planning, if the young master's original intentions are really different because of a mere Fourth Miss Song If you change, you will not continue to let things develop to this point. At this time, I just hope that Miss Song Si can live up to everyone's expectations and finish the crucial move in this game safely. ?”

Duanmutang remained silent for a long time, and realized that the woman had been staring at him, so he set his eyes on her face.

The woman smiled slightly, but she didn't seem so cramped or nervous. "I'm just talking about the facts. Although the young master used his body as bait this time, it was a bit risky, but the whole situation is still under control."

"Do you think he used his body as a bait to make this move because he was absolutely sure that he could retreat completely?" Duan Mutang disagreed.

The woman frowned in confusion, and gave him a questioning look.

Duanmutang didn't look at her anymore, walked forward, stood by the window, looking at the sporadic falling snow outside, "He has changed a lot in the past few years, although I know his original intention has not changed, but in fact But he has gone to extremes in many things. Sometimes, it’s not because he has the assurance and confidence that he will be able to retreat completely, but—”

As he spoke, he paused for a moment, with bitter emotions suddenly appearing in his eyes, "He regards me as the last resort in the last resort. Even if there is an unfortunate accident and he dies, then there is still me, I can continue Finish what he hasn't done."

Yin Shu was skeptical of Duanmuqi's words, and always felt that it was impossible for a person like him to be willing to be someone else's pawn and stepping stone.Maybe all the people in this world don't believe it, but there is only one Duan Mutang who feels the same way——

He knew that Duanmuqi never stopped on the road he was going to take, but in fact he made two preparations.

"Your Highness, are you too pessimistic?" The woman was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and then she smiled calmly, "The young master forbids you to enter Beijing at this juncture, just for your safety. Bar."

"Really? If he really only puts my safety first, then after all these years, can you follow him without hesitation?" Duan Mutang sarcastically said.

If they were following a master who only paid attention to family affection and trivial human affection, how many more risks would they have taken along the way over the years, willing to take risks and walk step by step?
A master who only values ​​family affection is simply unreliable.

The woman was dumbfounded when he asked her, and her face changed uncomfortably. After a long while, she sighed in frustration and regret, "But I was thinking about it."

"He is my elder brother, no one will know him better than me." Duanmutang didn't care about her, his expression became more bitter and he sighed again.

He pondered for a while, and suddenly had a sudden thought at the next moment, thinking: "You said——if I die, will he be able to calm down?"

If he died, Duanmuqi's retreat would be cut off.

He has been planning a great cause for many years and has no one to succeed him, and Duanmuqi can only put aside all selfishness and hesitation, and keep going forward, right?

"Not necessarily!" The woman smiled with her lips curled up, neither frivolous nor provocative, "In the young master's heart, your weight may not be equal to that Miss Song, and he treats that Miss Fourth Can be cruel, let alone you?"

Rather than saying that Duanmuqi was cruel to Song Chuxi, it would be more appropriate to say that he was cruel to himself.

When it came to the end, the woman's expression was slightly teasing.

If there is anything Duanmutang can't bear, it's that he absolutely can't tolerate people making fun of his only brother.

His face suddenly turned cold.

Touching the light in his eyes, the woman changed color and froze slightly, "It's my subordinate who violated the rules, I—"

Duanmutang looked at her coldly, but in the end he didn't care about it, he just said: "My brother asked you to watch me?"
