Chapter 173 This idiot is going to heaven In the tavern, Mu Shu took a sip of the wine and frowned slightly. It was no joke that the Yunnan Mu family was rich enough to rival a country. She had been pampered since she was a child, and her food and drink were no worse than those of the rich and powerful in the capital. After arriving in the capital, she naturally ate and drank well since she had no shortage of money. But as soon as he took a sip of the wine, Mu Shu felt that it was just mediocre, or second-rate. Yang Qi was restrained at home, and when he attended poetry gatherings outside, he only drank for show. But now he let go, and even second-rate liquor tasted like fine wine. "Drink!" Yang Qi looked at Mu Shu in a daze and advised: "If you want to drink next time, you have to go to your place. Drinking behind closed doors is not as refreshing as here. Look at that woman..." The two men at the partition were arguing more and more fiercely, and some were about to fight. The woman who was with him stood up to persuade him but to no avail, and was stamping her feet in anxiety. "It will be hard to be so free after getting married." Yang Qi shook her head and got back to work. ……
"Are you sure?" Mu Xian was in the study, also drinking. A man stood respectfully, "We sent out Yin Erniang, that woman is good at using poison." …… "stop fighting." The woman stamped her feet and said, "You two continue to quarrel. I'm leaving now." Yang Qi and Mu Shu exchanged glances, both feeling that this woman was very pitiful. The woman turned and walked away, looking furious. Seeing this, the two men stood up and chased after him. "Second Madam, Second Madam..." The woman quickened her pace and snorted, "Ignore me and keep arguing." Mu Shu smiled. The woman walked past Yang Qi and then passed behind Mu Shu. "Let's drink!" Yang Qi raised his glass and said generously: "Next time we go to your place, we won't leave until we are drunk." "Okay!" Mu Shu raised his glass. But suddenly he found Yang Qi staring behind him with a look of horror... "snake!" Yang Qi screamed. Mu Shu felt a chill down his spine and instantly thought of the retainers under Mu Chaobi.
There are many poisonous snakes in Yunnan, and we often hear of people dying from snake bites. Where there are many snakes, there will also be snake-charming experts. Mu Chaobi had such an expert among his disciples, and he once performed snake charming at a banquet. But Mu Shu had only heard about it. That woman seemed to be called... "Yin Er Niang!" Mu Shu blurted out, his face ashen. Rumor has it that Yin Er Niang had fought for Mu Chaobi several times, and each time her opponent died from snake venom, but no one was caught and no evidence was obtained, so the matter was left unresolved. My life is over! Mu Shu looked at Yang Qi in despair. But Yang Qi's eyes suddenly lit up. A familiar voice came from behind. "Play this? I know it!" Then the woman's scream was heard. The two men suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Mu Shu. Halfway through, they took out short knives from their arms and grinned, "Die, bitch!" Mu Shu's guards were nearby, but they were unable to come to his rescue in an instant. "Stone." The man behind him ordered leisurely, "Do it!" A strong wind blew past. Choking! This man was so arrogant that he drew his sword while rushing forward. He didn't take his opponent seriously at all. The two men were overjoyed when they saw that the other side only had one person. "Stop him!" one of the men shouted, rushing towards Mu Shu. Mu Shu only saw a flash of a knife, and the man who rushed towards her fell headfirst in front of her. He even tried to look up at her, his body twitched a few times, and then he fell down dejectedly. Blood slowly flowed out from the abdomen... The knife flashed again. Another man's scream was heard.
Yang Qi screamed and pointed to the right corner, "Those two too!" The two men in the right corner came over at some point. Mu Shu felt his whole body tense up, and the man behind him asked, "I said I would come, am I not late?" Mu Shu choked up with inexplicable emotions, "Yeah!" A woman shouted, followed by the sound of a sword being drawn. Mu Shu thought of the female guard. Screams came one after another. "Sun Chonglou, you are stealing my credit!" "Bullshit, Dou Jialan, who can you blame for being so slow in killing people?" "I'm not done with you!" "It's never over, am I afraid of you? Wait till I catch a snake and throw it into your bed in the middle of the night..." "Sun Chonglou, how dare you!" The environment was very noisy...but at this moment Mu Shu felt particularly peaceful. Under the several big trees outside the long shed, the fallen leaves were blown by the wind, but in Mu Shu's eyes they looked particularly lively. Several horses and a donkey were tied to stone pillars. When Mu Shu came in earlier, he thought they were very dull, reminding him of a skinny horse on an ancient road in the west wind. But now he felt that these horses and donkeys were so cute. Yang Qi's pretty face flushed with excitement, and she stood up and shouted, "Long Wilbur!" Mu Shu turned back slowly. Behind him, the handsome young nobleman was holding a triangular-headed poisonous snake in one hand and pinching Yin Erniang's neck with the other. When he saw her turn around, he asked gently, "Are you scared?" In an instant, Mu Shu felt that everything in front of him seemed to be cleared of a layer of mist, and it was exceptionally fresh and bright. She nodded vigorously. "Yeah! I was scared." …… The shopkeeper and his clerk were frightened and ran out. The tourists around were watching. Someone asked, “Who is that?” "It's Jiang Qingzhi!" "Long Wilbur?" "That's him!" "It was scary just now, but he kept laughing. It shows that he is a murderer without blinking an eye."
"But his smile is so charming!" A young girl looked at Jiang Qingzhi eagerly, "Long Wei Bo!" Jiang Qingzhi glanced at her. The girl waved her hands. Seeing her mother glaring at her, she stuck out her tongue and retracted it. Mu Shu had many questions in his mind, but just as he was about to ask, he heard the sound of horse hooves like thunder. More than ten riders came galloping over, and someone shouted, "Where is Jiang Qingzhi?" "It's right inside. You're too late. Hey! Hey!" The crowd of onlookers dispersed unconsciously. "It's Jin Yiwei." "Are you here to catch Long Wilbur?" "Looking aggressive, most likely it is." More than a dozen Jinyiwei rushed in, escorting Zhu Hao. There were four bodies on the ground, and blood was everywhere. Zhu Hao saw Jiang Qingzhi and Mu Shu. "Long Wilbur!" Jiang Qingzhi looked at him, "Zhu Hao!" Zhu Hao felt his heart sink to the bottom of the valley. "These people are..." "Lu Bing and I requested someone, and His Majesty nodded in agreement. Lu Bing also said that he would dispatch good people to assist me in time. But until the assassin attacked again, the Jinyiwei's talents were late. Did Lu Bing do it on purpose?" Jiang Qingzhi sneered. ——Find Mu Shu and take a defensive stance. This was Lu Bing's order, with the purpose of alerting the enemy and making the person behind the scenes give up. In this way, Jiang Qingzhi returned empty-handed, and then the Mu family attacked, and he became the scapegoat. This was Lu Bing's plan, and it was brilliant. But it was just a step too late. Zhu Hao's heart sank just thinking about how furious Lu Bing would be if he found out that the mission failed because of his late arrival. Jiang Qingzhi's words were like thunder, waking him up. Yes! The assassin attacked again, but Jiang Qingzhi intercepted him in time. Where are the Jinyiwei people? Long overdue.
Jiang Qingzhi said Lu Bing did it on purpose. It even condones the assassin's attack. Jiang Qingzhi intercepted the assassination attempt on Mu Shu, and everything he said made sense. Lu Bing, who felt guilty, would turn his anger towards Zhu Hao... Zhu Hao knew that he had to take the blame first; this was the only way to save himself. He relaxed his knees without hesitation. Pfft! Kneel down. "He actually knelt down!" "Is this because your legs are weak?" "Didn't they say that the Royal Guards and Chang Wei Bo don't get along? Why are you kneeling?" "Kneel down to the heaven, the earth, and your parents. Why is he doing this?" Everyone was surprised, and then Zhu Hao looked up and said: "I accept the blame!" …… "Your Majesty, the prince has arrived and said that someone presented him with some fresh oranges, which are very sweet. He did not dare to enjoy them all by himself, so he presented them to Your Majesty." Huang Jin repeated the prince's words without adding or subtracting anything. Emperor Jiajing looked outside the door and said, "The prince is very thoughtful. Just take one, and let him share the rest... Never mind, let him share it with the third and fourth brothers. I'm afraid those two little brats won't dare to eat it." We dare not listen to this, Your Majesty! Huang Jin lowered his head and said, "Yes." He walked out of the hall, and the prince smiled warmly in the autumn sun. "Your Highness, His Majesty said that Your Highness has a heart, just take one." "Put the rest here..." the prince ordered, "Huang Ban, take it and eat it." "How dare I?" Huang Jin smiled but did not stop him. Watching the prince walk away, Huang Jin turned and entered the hall. Emperor Jiajing took the orange and sniffed it. "It tastes really good." He stood up, and Huang Jin smiled and said, "The prince put the remaining oranges outside." Emperor Jiajing did not comment, but played with the orange in his hand, walked to the statue and placed the orange on the altar. "It can be regarded as a token of his thoughtfulness." Huang Jin's heart trembled, knowing that the prince's position in Emperor Jiajing's heart was still unshakable.
"Your Majesty," an eunuch came to report, "The Jinyiwei sent out more than ten riders, rushing to the outside of the city, followed closely by the Ministry of Justice." "Hmm!" Emperor Jiajing turned around, "But is there any news about the assassin? Where is Qingzhi?" "I don't know." "If I know nothing, I will be deaf and blind!" Emperor Jiajing said coldly: "The East Factory is incompetent!" The eunuch knelt down and pleaded guilty. But the East Depot also had a lot of grievances. Since Lu Bing took charge of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Emperor Jiajing gradually came to trust the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the East Depot became a decoration. Huang Jin lowered his head. He did not get along with the eunuch Rui Jingxian, who was currently supervising the East Factory, and was also wary of the other party's power. The two sides did not interfere with each other, but... If I can take charge of the East Factory, what does Lu Bing matter? "I will go and check it out now." The eunuch took his leave. Emperor Jiajing narrowed his eyes, "The political world is ruthless, and one can be deceived if one is not careful. Many smart people have been drowned in it. I have always prevented Qingzhi from interfering in government affairs because I am worried that this kid will be deceived. But without some trials, how can we improve? This is a trial, Huang Jin." "I'm here, slave." "Tell me, if I punish Qingzhi for this, will he give up on himself?" Is Your Majesty so meticulous? Huang Jin inexplicably felt as if a piece of his heart had been dug out. "Long Wilbur is determined, I don't think so!" "It's better to suppress it, so as to avoid..." Emperor Jiajing lowered his voice, "Marquis Guanjun died young, my Marquis Guanjun! This cannot be allowed. Suppress it, suppress it." "His Majesty!" With a cheer, the eunuch Rui Jingxian, the commander of the Eastern Depot, rushed in, knelt down, and used the momentum to rush in front of Emperor Jiajing. "Congratulations, Your Majesty." Rui Jingxian looked up. "What are you happy about?" asked Emperor Jiajing. "Chang Wei Bo set a trap, and the man behind the scenes made another move, but was caught by Chang Wei Bo. Your Majesty, Jinyiwei Captain Zhu Hao knelt in front of Chang Wei Bo and confessed his crime, looking extremely ugly..." Rui Jingxian was ecstatic, "I know that your majesty is concerned about Chang Wei Bo, so I rushed all the way to the palace to report the good news. Congratulations, your majesty!" The East Depot and the Embroidered Uniform Guard were at odds, but Rui Jingxian did not hide the fact and instead won the approval of Emperor Jiajing. "Qingzhi?" Emperor Jiajing, who was ready to scold Jiang Qingzhi and teach him a lesson, was startled, then stroked his beard and said lightly: "This idiot is going to heaven!" …… The fourth update is here.
