Chapter 89
According to Mu Liancheng's original idea, if Nangongchang still held hostility towards Yanran, he was going to use this jade seal to blame Nangongchang, but he ignored the Nangong family's defense force.

Not to mention putting Yuxi into Nangong's house, even bringing it to the mansion is a difficult task.After visiting Nangong's house, Mu Liancheng gave up on this thought.

However, the jade seal is a treasure after all, and he is not at ease to hand over this kind of thing to other people and send it back to Yanran. One must know that a hundred years ago because of this jade seal, there was a scuffle among the three kingdoms of the Central Plains, and a Jingguo was fought as a result.

As a lesson from the past, Mu Liancheng certainly knew the pros and cons of it. Once he let the royal family of Jingguo know that the jade seal was in his hands and was brought into the capital, he might be killed himself.

But this news was concealed so well, it was still found out after all, which made Mu Liancheng quite helpless.What made him even more helpless was Nangongsu's attitude at this time. The current Nangongsu really wanted to strangle himself to death.

Huai Yunqian patted Nangong Su on the shoulder: "Don't worry, my son. It's useless to blame him at this time. Even if you want to kill him, it's a bit disgusting now."

Everyone in the capital knew that Mu Liancheng traveled with Nangongsu, but Mu Liancheng died mysteriously in the suburbs of Beijing.Not to mention whether the people in the capital agree with this statement, Yanran people will never believe this statement.

Nangongsu stared at Mu Liancheng, before threatening for a long time: "This time, I'll take advantage of you first. Whether you can get out of Jingguo alive depends on your luck."

Obviously, Mu Liancheng's sneaky behavior this time completely angered Nangongsu. Seeing Nangongsu threatening him, Mu Liancheng couldn't refute it, so he had to accept Nangongsu's threat.

Huai Yun glanced at Mu Liancheng, and mourned for him for a moment in his heart. He had witnessed Nangongsu's methods before, and he was a person who would do anything for his family and family.

Even if Mu Liancheng can escape this catastrophe, whether he can get out of Jingguo in the future is another matter.It's just that they are on one side after all, so it's better to settle this matter properly first.

"If they really went for Yuxi, then it would be too late for us to act now." Seeing Nangong Su's expression softening, Nan Gongxing whispered.

Nangong Su nodded silently. At this time, the people Mu Liancheng sent to report to Beijing went back and forth, but each of them was wounded. Seeing Mu Liancheng, he said, "His Royal Highness, there are people ambushing on the way."

Hearing this, Nangongsu turned his head to look at Nineteen, Nineteen murmured in his ear for a moment, and then Nangongsu said: "It's because our investigation made a mistake, thinking that those people would only lie in ambush in the surrounding woods, I didn't expect They directly blocked the official road."

No one would have thought that this group of people would act so boldly and directly set up defenses on the official road.Generally speaking, every evening and early morning, the forbidden army will change their defenses. If they are discovered by the forbidden army, none of these people will be able to escape.

Thinking of this, Nangongsu and the others realized that the people behind the scenes were very knowledgeable about changing troops, and they really couldn't be sure who this person was for a while.

"What should we do now? Sit and wait?" Mu Liancheng couldn't help feeling a little anxious when he saw the two of them sitting down slowly. If it was later, the entire army he brought would be wiped out.

At that time, even if he can escape this time, he will have no chance of surviving the aftermath of Yuxi and the threat from Nangongsu.

Thinking of this, Mu Liancheng's heart inevitably sank. If he knew this, he might as well have given the jade seal directly to the royal family of Jingguo back then, so that he wouldn't be in such a passive situation as he is today.

"No matter what should come, I can't stop it. Your Highness, why don't you think about it at this time. When the imperial army takes us back to Beijing tomorrow, how should you explain to my father and Prime Minister Chi." Huai Yunqian deliberately disgusted Mu Liancheng.

Everyone knew that their father and son were at odds, but at this time he pretended to be a loving father and a filial son, obviously deliberately disgusting Mu Liancheng.

It was also rare for Nangong Su not to interrupt Huai Yunqian. The two of them were standing in the same camp. Seeing this scene, Mu Liancheng's eyelids twitched slightly, but there was nothing he could do.

Beijing.

Jingguo is powerful and prosperous, and the market life is extremely rich. Even in the rainy season, the night market is still operating as usual. However, there are a few places in the capital that are unusually deserted, among which is the posthouse at the foot of Mulian City.

Because this posthouse is only one street away from Chixiangfu, and every move here can be seen from the gate of Chixiangfu, so the security here has always been heavily guarded.

Chi Baiyuan is known as the prime minister who saves time. Apart from his excellent business ability, he has almost no hobbies in life. Apart from his liking for quietness, so in order to please him, the surrounding markets have also canceled hawking and night markets.

Tonight Chi Baiyuan went to Zhongshu very early to handle official business. In recent years, the emperor has been in poor health, and Chi Baiyuan has been responsible for all the government affairs for him. It is common for him not to return home for a few days.

The servants of Chi's mansion also knew the master's habits. The mansion expelled a few night watchmen, and the others went to sleep. Even Chi Qinglian, who was about to go out after a day of trouble, went back to the room to rest at this time.

No one would have thought that dozens of men in black had gathered at the post house just across the street from here. They were either standing on the roof, or standing guard on the street with vigilant expressions.

A slight whistle sounded, and everyone broke into the post to search around.They didn't know what they were looking for, they only knew that it was a box that was placed in a secret place.

However, when they broke in, they found that the place was empty and there was no one there.The leader instantly felt that something was wrong, and immediately ordered to retreat, but it was too late.

I saw a drunkard hanging a wine gourd standing in front of the door, and a frail scholar standing on a tree, the scholar said to the drunkard: "Lao Qi, please drink less, if you miss something, the master will not let you go!" You and I."

"It's not like you don't know me, the seventh. The more you drink, the more drunk you are, the stronger you fight. I have nothing to say to you, the old nine. Fifth brother knows me best!" the alcoholic said. .

Those men in black felt their hearts sink when they heard this conversation. Is this the Drunken Seventh and Shu Ninth of Shenyin Gongfu?Different from the following rankings, these two were once well-known masters in the Jianghu.

Seeing these masked people, Seventh murmured: "What's so interesting about these little brats? The master really does. I won't let me go to such an easy job as accompanying Miss Shizi, but this annoying job reminds me of me." coming."

"Old Qi, you talked a lot today, do you want to go back and ask Fifth Brother to relax your muscles and bones?" Ninth glanced at Seventh, and Seventh swallowed, pretending that he hadn't said anything.

"Brothers, get out!" The leader was overwhelmed, anyway, the left and right are dead, so it's better to have a chance to survive.

However, this glimmer of life was quickly extinguished. There is naturally a reason why Nangongchang sent the two of them here.

Seventh played a meteor hammer. With the blessing of spirits, he was second only to the fifth line, and even the sixth had to avoid the edge for the time being. Head-to-head might not lose to Hong Changan.

As for the ninth, he is good at various types of hidden weapons and heretics. Fifth once said that with the two of them, why would he be afraid of a thousand people attacking him?
At this time, the noise rang out, and the servants of Chi's mansion woke up one after another. Just as they were about to rush out to scold, they saw their master standing in front of the door watching this scene, and they didn't dare to complain any more in an instant.

"Brother, brother, how can you reassure him when you're so busy thinking about the world?" Chi Baiyuan sighed softly, his voice so small that no one could hear him.

Such a scene also happened outside the city at the same time. The group of masked people who were blocking the way back to Beijing were also eliminated, and the leader of the team was No. [-]. At this time, after dealing with these matters, he led people to the small temple.

At this time, Mu Liancheng was fidgeting, knowing that once the news about Yuxi was publicized, his life in a foreign country would probably be in danger.

At this time, Nangong Su and Huai Yunqian were sitting on the sidelines watching the play. They were happy to see Mu Liancheng fall into that situation. It was just like this that Mu Liancheng was even more helpless and desperate.

The sound of rain outside the temple was accompanied by the sound of horseshoes. Nan Gongxing, who was sleeping peacefully, was awakened by this sound. She didn't feel relieved until she could distinguish the sound of horseshoes.

"My lord, Miss, Sixth is late!" Sixth's voice sounded outside the temple, and Mu Liancheng immediately regained his spirits when he heard this, and walked out of the temple gate first.

I saw Sixth standing at the door with a group of house slaves. Seeing his face, Sixth smiled and said, "His Royal Highness is really scheming, but I don't know how it feels to shoot yourself in the foot with a rock?"

The sixth naturally refers to the fact that Mu Liancheng wanted to plot against Nan Gongchang, but unexpectedly the scheme not only failed, but also put himself in a dangerous situation.

Mu Liancheng looked embarrassed and didn't speak. At this time, Nangong Xing came out and stretched his waist, and said lazily: "This is really too clever to calculate, and it cost Qingqing's life."

The sixth saw the embarrassment on Mu Liancheng's face, so he asked someone to take out the wooden box. As soon as Mu Liancheng saw the wooden box, he knew that most of the people in the capital were also controlled by Nangongchang.

"His Royal Highness, do you think the master really doesn't know your initial thoughts? It's not that the master doesn't know, he knows very clearly."

From the very beginning, Nangongchang knew what Mu Liancheng was planning. At the beginning, Mu Liancheng insisted on meeting Nangongchang. At that time, Nangongchang asked people to check the things Mu Liancheng carried with him.

And the person who went to investigate was the sixth. On the first day in Beijing, Nan Gongchang already knew that Mu Liancheng was carrying the big phoenix dragon jade seal, and also guessed Mu Liancheng's attitude.

"His Royal Highness, the master said that there is no free banquet in the world. Since our Nangong family let you go this time, you should show it." Sixth did not return the jade seal to Mu Liancheng, but talked about it. condition.

Mu Liancheng sighed, knowing that he was being tricked by Nangongchang, he thought for a moment and said, "I can promise a favor, but I have my bottom line."

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, favors will not be related to the national policy of the two countries, and we will only make a favor transaction with our two families."

"make a deal!"
