Chapter 35
He Musheng looked at his pale face with great interest, and raised the corners of his lips, "You want to save it?"

The young man nodded in fear, turned and left.

"It's injured too badly. It looks like it was cut by metal on the pad. If the inflammation is not cured in time, it may become infected." He Musheng looked at his weak back, and finally couldn't hold back his mouth.

The boy paused and stopped walking.

After a long time, he turned his head and said in a low voice, "It's not safe here, come with me."

He Musheng stepped up to keep up, and soon, the two came to a remote courtyard.

The young man held the civet cat in one hand, and pushed open the courtyard door with the other. He Musheng followed him in, and there were countless cats, cats and dogs in sight.

They were wagging their tails happily at the boy, as if they were very close to him.

When the two came to the room, the boy lit the candle on the corner of the table, and beckoned the cat and dog to enter the room, and then closed the door.

After doing this, the top of his head was already white. He shook off the snowflakes on his body, and some of them had turned into water droplets, which were playfully attached to the broken hair on his forehead, which added a bit of fun.

"I remember you, you are Ji Yunyuan's disciple." The boy's voice was soft and soft.

He Mucheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Who are you?"

The boy grinned, "My name is Shi Hong."

Shi Hong?He Musheng thought about the relationship between the characters in the book. Shi Hong was Shi Le's son, and later inherited Shi Le's mantle. Unfortunately, he only reigned for one year and was finally killed by Shi Hu.

According to the book, Shi Hong's temperament is like water, gentle and courteous, but he is too timid and timid, which is completely opposite to Shi Le's bravery and domineering.

Thinking of this, He Musheng's guarded heart finally settled down. She cupped her hands and bowed politely, "So it's the prince, it's Mu Sheng who was rude."

"I don't have so much politeness here." He waved his hand indifferently, and asked again, "You just said that there is a way to cure it?"

He Musheng looked at the already sick civet cat, pretended to put his hand into his cloak, and quietly exchanged some hydrogen peroxide and anti-inflammatory drugs in the system.

Under Shi Hong's amazed gaze, she treated the civet cat's wound, took out the pet's pills and handed them to Shi Hong, carefully explaining how to take them.

Seeing the civet cat drooping its head and falling asleep in his arms, Shi Hong finally showed his face.

"So you are different from them." Shi Hong said softly.

"Who?" He Musheng sat down opposite him.

"Everyone." Shi Hong supported the civet cat's fur with his slender five fingers, and said to himself, "My uncle Shi Hu, elder brother Shi Sui, my father...they are full of killing, full of evil spirits, even General Ji, Also unsmiling."

Seeing his tired face, He Musheng comforted him softly, "It's all about the strong preying on the weak, without them, how would you be safe?"

She pointed to a group of small animals snuggled up to him, smiling brightly.

"Mu Sheng, do you know? People's hearts are really greedy sometimes. Back then, the Sima family's descendants made Jin fall apart for power. Now, my Shi family may follow in the same footsteps." Speaking of which, he His complexion turned pale again.

He Musheng heard him calling himself Mu Sheng softly, and then told her what was on his mind, as if he was treating an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time, so he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Why did your son say that?" He Musheng guided his confession. She knew that Shi Hong was close to Confucian scholars and read sage books. Compared to his father Shi Lemu who was illiterate, his feelings were much more delicate.

"General Ji came to my father tonight and said that my cousin Shi Sui had put his retainer under house arrest, that is, you, Mu Sheng." He raised his eyes and smiled warmly, "I didn't want to be nosy, but I have something for you." This kind of inexplicable kindness, after thinking about it, I still decided to help you."

"Help me?" He Mucheng frowned slightly.

"Yes, help you," Shi Hong nodded, "If you don't come here with me, you can run into Shi Sui 500 meters ahead."

He Mucheng was startled, and then terrified and annoyed, she really should have listened to Ji Yunyuan's words and stayed in his room, but she was also afraid that the envoy would not be able to leave Xiangguo, and she would not get news from Emperor Xuan.

Fortunately, there is no danger!
However, although Shi Hong in front of him looks weak, his mind is meticulous, his mind is not confused at all!

He Musheng had a lot of appreciation in his heart, and bowed seriously to Shi Hong again, "Thank you, my lord, for saving me!"

Shi Hong nodded, "You're welcome."

After a long time, Shi Hong continued to speak, "General Ji is the adopted grandson of my uncle Shi Hu. I thought you were all the same breed. I didn't want to have much contact with you, but today's incident made me change my mind."

He Mucheng was secretly happy, it's a good thing you changed your mind, otherwise you would have to overthrow this plan and start all over again!
Seeing her playful blinking, Shi Hong couldn't help grinning, revealing a row of neat and beautiful teeth.

"My uncle Shi Hu is very ambitious, but my father wants him to help me, but only I know that what he really covets is the throne of Zhao State," Shi Hong said bluntly, "I think He is not capable of controlling generals, nor can he be the king of Zhao, but my uncle is even more unqualified than me."

Having said that, Shi Hong suddenly raised his head, "So, Mu Sheng, I hope you and General Ji will join me in dealing with my uncle Shi Hu, as long as he doesn't harm the people of Zhao State, it doesn't matter if I become king or not." .”

Ok?Did Ji Yunyuan kill Shi Hu?This conflicts with the main mission. If Shi Hu doesn't succeed, how cruel is he, and how can he arouse public outrage?How could Ji Yunyuan have an excuse to overthrow his tyranny?

Thinking of this, she coughed lightly, and said, "It can't be done now, Zhao Kingdom only has Xiang Kingdom, and needs to expand its territory, and all of this is inseparable from Shihu."

Shi Hong smiled in relief, "I'm relieved when Mu Sheng said so."

Ok?rest assured?What is the logic?You obviously rejected him?

As if seeing her confusion, Shi Hong explained again, "If you really agree, I will suspect that you have ulterior motives. I know that Zhao Guo can't do without him right now. I just want you to stand by me." On the other side, we will advance and retreat with me in the future, and we will play by ear in the future."

He Mucheng breathed a sigh of relief quietly, then nodded seriously.

Shi Hong got up, put the civet cat into the soft basket, and stroked the wolf dog wagging its tail at him, "Let's go, it should be safe now."

Seeing that his clothes were thin, He Mucheng took off his cloak and handed it to him, "My lord, I'm close, and you have a long way to go back to the palace. Put on this, so you don't get cold."

Shi Hong didn't hesitate either, he obediently put on his cloak, and said hopefully, "Father has Zhang Bin, General Ji has Mu Sheng, if I can also have my favorite disciples, I will have no regrets in life."

"There will be, the son is a virtuous corporal, and there will be someone willing to go through fire and water for you."

He Musheng looked at his lonely side face, and thought of what was said in the book, that he voluntarily surrendered in order to keep the country of Zhao, but was finally killed by Shihu, and he couldn't help but feel compassion.

When the two walked out of the courtyard, Shi Hong stretched out his palm and said calmly, "The snow has stopped, I will take you back to your residence. I am familiar with the roads in Xiangguo, so I will take you to take a shortcut."

The two stood one after the other until they stood at the back door of the mansion.

"My lord, I'm here." She turned her head and smiled brightly.

"Well, go in, if there's any difficulty, just come to the palace and find me." He waved his hand and watched her enter the gate of the mansion.

As soon as He Musheng's front foot stepped onto the threshold, Ji Yunyuan's back foot was lifted by the back of the neck like a chicken, and in just an instant, both feet left the ground!

His voice was filled with overwhelming anger, "Where did you go!"
