Chapter Twenty-Four
After resting in the hospital for a few days, until the burns on his body had scabbed and no longer needed to be wrapped with gauze, Baili Muyun quietly returned to the army with Mo Xi.
Hua Jingyuan and others who had received the news early in the morning were already waiting in the handsome tent. When they saw Baili Muyun walking in with Mo Xi's petite body in his arms, the tense atmosphere in the tent reached its peak. Several people stared at Mo Xi with unkind eyes.
Xi, they knew that as long as Mo Xi provoked them even a little bit, the emperor and them would be in danger of becoming alienated.
Mo Xi naturally understood what they were worried about. To be honest, she didn't really care what Lin Muxi and the others thought of her, nor did she care whether Lin Muxi would be rejected by Baili Muyun because of her words. What she cared about was that she didn't want to
Just make it difficult for Baili Muyun.
Except for Baili Muyun, there are few people in the world who can make her willingly wrong herself. Of course, the existence of shadow does not make her willing, but uses despicable means.
Taking off the hood of the cloak, the fox fur softly brushed her flawless face. Although she was extremely thin, her smooth steps, her unhurried smile, and her calm eyes were all revealing.
With shocking tension and oppression.
Arriving in front of Lin Muxiang, she nodded slightly, smiled slightly, and said warmly: "Thank you so much, General, a few days ago. If it weren't for General, I would not have been able to complete the mission, and I would not have been able to explain it to the Emperor."
"Your Majesty's words are true." Lin Muxi didn't understand what this woman was going to do, so she just clasped her fists, lowered her head, and took a step back. This was a defensive posture.
"It's not serious. If it weren't for the general, the food and grass in the Northern Qing Dynasty would not be burned. I wonder if the general was injured anywhere?" Mo Xi still smiled in a moderate way, looking gentle and pleasant. The more he looked like this, the more people thought about it.
Don't know her thoughts.
"Thank you for your condolences, I will be fine." Lin Muxi raised his head slightly, and his eyes met Mo Xi's.
It's true that he almost killed her. If she insists on pursuing the case, then there's no harm in admitting the crime. He knew a long time ago that this woman is not a simple character. Now seeing her smiling and talking with a gun,
It is even more conceivable what a scheming and ruthless person she will be.
Hua Jingyuan watched from the side, secretly stepped forward, and stood between Lin Muxi and Mo Xi. The green stubble on his face slowly grew into a somewhat hard beard, showing a bit of a tough guy's aura. Mo Xi really had that.
The flowery father-in-law who was not used to him suddenly transformed into a real man with green beard and beautiful face.
"I'm afraid you'll be tired when your Majesty comes back this time, so why don't you take a rest early." Although Hua Jingyuan didn't want Mo Xi to catch the emperor's heart, he believed that just by virtue of being in the harem, he had a lot of love for him.
Even if Mo Xi helped him openly or covertly, Mo Xi would also give him the face and let the matter go.
But it turned out that Mo Xi really needed a step down. He smiled softly and said, "Vice General Hua doesn't think it is true even if he doesn't say it. But once he talks about it, he really feels a little tired."
Baili Muyun stood aside, looking at Mo Xi's sharp appearance, his eyes narrowed. Lin Muxi deserved the punishment. If Mo Xi didn't say these words, he really didn't know how to explain to Mo Xi.
.Now that she is pushing each other every step of the way, it is really easy to resolve the matter and avoid the crisis of her falling out with Lin Muxian. With such good intentions, she is probably the only woman who treats him like this?
Lin Muxian, who walked out of the tent, opened her fan with a clatter. There was still a cynical joke on her face, but the cold light in her eyes was piercing. Hua Jingyuan frowned slightly and said reproachfully: "You were too hasty in this matter.
"
"My adoptive father taught me that the child underestimated her this time." Lin Muxian bowed her head respectfully.
"My adoptive father didn't mean that you didn't do anything to her, but that you didn't wait for the right time to act." Wang Bohan shook his head and said, Lin Muxi had always been extremely smart, but on this matter, he was a little confused.
"Oh, really? Isn't it a good time to wait until this woman has hollowed out the emperor and brought disaster to the world?" Lin Muxian raised his eyebrows and retorted with bitter words.
"That's enough! It's getting more and more unsightly!" Hua Jingyuan was a little angry and shouted. Lin Muxian quickly put away his fan and stood respectfully, lowering his ears to listen to the instructions, "The Mo Xi incident is far more involved than you can imagine. "It's so simple, if you continue to insist on your own way, can you bear the responsibility for major disasters?"
"How extensive are the implications?" Lin Muxian immediately grasped the key words and raised his head to ask.
"Do you still remember the jade plaque you brought to blame Tao He? That jade plaque was taken from Tao He's retainer Lin Yue. He sneaked into Xuanqian Kingdom a few days ago and was caught by the Blood Pavilion spies. We took away his jade medal, but the information found from him was not sent to Tao He, which is enough to prove that there is another existence behind him in the north that we don't know about." Hua Jingyuan spoke slowly, and then looked at Lin Muxian, he believed that as long as Lin Muxian was not completely dizzy, he should be able to figure out the key.
Sure enough, Lin Muxiang lit his palm with his fan, frowned and thought for a while and said: "When the palace changed, there were many mysterious people in the palace. Although some clues were found, they were broken later and they were never caught. When it comes to Big Fish, could it be this Lin Yue... But what does this have to do with Concubine Mo?"
"I can't say it has anything to do with it, it's just a feeling I have." Hua Jingyuan put his hands behind his back and looked into the distance.
However, Lin Muxi understood that what his sworn brother had taught him since he was a child was not to say anything that he was not sure about, and not to do anything without confidence. Since Hua Jingyuan said this, there must be a reason. The reason for not telling him was nothing more than that. But I'm also afraid that I might cause trouble.
Baili Muyun had not returned to the army for several days and had many affairs. He and Hua Jingyuan analyzed the enemy's situation, purged the army, and prepared to send troops at any time to attack Beiqing, which had no more food and grass to sustain. But Mo Xi only grinded and served tea for them. They were silent, as if they couldn't hear what they were saying.
Since Mo Xi really burned the food and grass, these people's impression of her has improved, so they don't have much objection to her coming in and out of the marching tent. After all, no matter the reason or the process, the credit lies there. of.
Baili Muyun has been extremely tired these past few days. He often falls asleep while looking at the marching map, crouching on the desk, like a prostrate lion, ready to burst out with the power that I regard as a king.
Mo Xi took a coat and put it on Baili Muyun, cleared up the messy pen and ink on the table, and carefully stroked his long eyebrows and blue eye circles. She always acted calmly and undisturbed. Her smile was neither happy nor worried, so unreal. The affection in her eyes seemed to be overflowing, so soft and deep that anyone who took a look at it would be willing to indulge in it forever.
The burns on her body dragged Shi Shi's luck, so her maid Xiao Luan asked Wang Bohan for plaster, but it healed quickly, leaving no traces, and was still as smooth as jade. But only Mo Xi could see that this body Under her skin, she was already riddled with holes.
"Why didn't you bring Jun Wuyao?" Mo Xi asked that day.
"When Langcheng is destroyed, you will naturally see it." Shadow said.
