Mu Yan's words made Fourth Master and Leng Yan'er on the side fall into deep thought. If Mu Yan said this, would Qi Fengyuan know about Heng'er?
After finishing their meal in silence, the three of them quickly left the inn and walked directly in the direction of the palace.
The woman sat at the dining table, watching Mu Yan and the others leave with slightly squinted eyes. When they walked out of the door, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of the woman's mouth.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" The little girl sitting next to her frowned and asked softly after seeing her appearance.
"It's okay, you two eat more." The woman recovered, patted the heads of the two children beside her, and said, "I'll take you to play later."
After a busy day, Mu Yan returned to his residence in a daze and fell on the bed after dark. Mu Yan hugged the quilt and his mind went blank. But after a while, he couldn't help but think of the two children he saw during the day.
Mu Yan curled her lips and sighed heavily. Was it because she had done too many evil things in her previous life, so God would treat her like this in this life? Has the cycle of cause and effect finally come true for her?
Mu Yan thought about it, smiled to himself and closed his eyes. Mu Yan threw off his boots and calculated the time for Qi Heichu to come back. After tossing and turning for a long time, he finally felt a little sleepy.
Early the next morning, Mu Yan wrapped herself in heavy clothes and walked to the door to look at the cold weather outside. After shivering, she returned to bed and didn't want to go out because she didn't know where else she could go or what she could do.
something
What Fu Lingtian did made Mu Yan completely confused. She, who was already dissatisfied with the country's climate and conditions, once again suffered from typhoid and cold symptoms.
Mu Yan sniffed her stuffy nose and left the broken jar on the bed. It wasn't until Leng Yan'er knocked on the door and placed breakfast and warm tea in front of her that Mu Yan reluctantly climbed onto the bed.
He got up, sat listlessly on the chair, and began to eat absentmindedly.
Leng Yan'er looked at Mu Yan like this, then glanced in the direction of the bed and the two pieces of clothes on the pillow. She didn't say anything more and kept eating with Mu Yan. Leng Yan'er said something else.
He and Mu Yan chatted one after another. The sky outside soon became dark with dark clouds, and strong winds and cold smoke were blowing. Thinking of Xia Yifeng's guards who were guarding the foot of the snow mountain, she couldn't help but be curious. When did Xia Yifeng arrange for so many people to stay there?
The people here seemed to be extremely familiar with Mu Yan and obeyed Mu Yan's orders. From the moment Mu Yan asked them to guard under the snowy mountain, until the cold smoke had just passed, those people had been guarding honestly.
there
After eating, Mu Yan went back to bed and lay there for several hours. When he got up again, it was already afternoon.
Qi Heichu, who had returned after a long journey, made both Mu Yan and Leng Yaner feel that something was wrong. Mu Yan tightened his tight clothes, glanced at Qi Heichu who was standing at the door and stared at him intently, and quickly got off.
He walked to the table and sat down on the bed, then asked in a cold voice: "What happened?"
Under normal circumstances, Qi Heichu should not appear in front of her now unless he was traveling day and night without a moment's rest, so he could return to Cangming Country so quickly.
"Qi Fengyuan is gone." Qi Heichu looked at Mu Yan with a heavy expression and said something faintly.
"Gone? What do you mean?" After hearing what he said, Leng Yan'er quickly asked, "Didn't you see him?"
"Not only Qi Fengyuan, but also Lu Yu'er who was following him has disappeared." Qi Fengyuan looked at Mu Yan intently and told the story of the incident word for word. After finishing speaking, Qi Hei
Chu reached out and poured himself a cup of warm tea, drank it in one gulp, and continued: "Something is not quite right."
Qi Fengyuan disappeared, and Lu Yuer disappeared too.
Mu Yan sneered and analyzed Qi Heichu's words, and gradually came up with some ideas.
It was Qi Fengyuan who guided her here. Now that he is missing, what does it mean? What is the purpose of taking Lu Yuer? Are you afraid that you will use Lu Yuer to threaten him?
Now that things have reached this point, Mu Yan no longer wants to doubt anyone around her, but Qi Fengyuan's actions have to make Mu Yan wonder where he disappeared to now?
"Does anyone else know where he went?" Mu Yan looked at Qi Heichu calmly and asked
"I don't know. I've asked everyone, and no one knows Qi Fengyuan's whereabouts. It seems he escaped overnight."
With a snap, the tea cup in Mu Yan's hand broke into pieces just after Qi Hei Chu's words. The warm tea overflowed and merged with the blood flowing from Mu Yan's palm, soaking Mu Yan.
The sleeves also surprised Leng Yaner and Qi Heichu.
"Where is the letter I asked you to write? Have you sent someone to deliver it?"
Mu Yan stood up from the table, looked down at Qi Hei Chu and asked. Qi Hei Chu nodded and gave himself a positive answer. Mu Yan closed his eyes hard and quickly planned the next action.
Recalling Xia Yifeng's expression and movements before leaving, Mu Yan suddenly felt that this was more like a trap by Xia Yifeng. He deliberately let him come here... But, why?
The last words Xia Yifeng said to himself were repeated over and over again in his mind. He said, "When I go this time, I don't know when you will come back without me by your side. You have to take good care of yourself."
An ominous premonition swept through Mu Yan's whole body in an instant. He opened his eyes. Mu Yan glanced at Leng Yan'er and Qi Heichu in front of him with a cold gaze, and said bluntly: "I want to return to Yixuan Country."
"Then what should Fu Lingtian do?" Leng Yan'er didn't expect Mu Yan to make such a decision. She couldn't guess the reason and purpose of Mu Yan wanting to go back. "There is also the whereabouts of Qi Fengyuan, aren't you ready to check?"
"
"Hei Chu, do you know the situation in Yixuan Country now?" Mu Yan did not answer Leng Yan'er's question, but turned directly to Qi Hei Chu and asked: "About Xia Yifeng?"
Mu Yan's serious expression made Qi Heichu tense up and slowly shake his head. Qi Heichu asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
"Hei Chu, you know Xia Yifeng and you know me. Do you think that under normal circumstances, he would let me, who is losing my mind, out of his control?"
Mu Yan lowered his eyes, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly asked this question. This question also made Qi Heichu and Leng Yaner fall into deep thought.
Will Xia Yifeng let Mu Yan leave his side? Will he let Mu Yan bear the pain of losing his son alone, and run murderously to places beyond his control?
The two looked at each other and got the same answer, that is, it couldn't be the case. Why did Xia Yifeng let Mu Yan go to this place thousands of miles away...?
"Yan'er, do you want to go to the palace to contact Xia Yifeng's men and ask them about the situation in Yixuan Kingdom?" Leng Yan'er looked at Mu Yan who had already started to pack his luggage and strode to her side.
He reassured: "Xia Yifeng can't be fine, don't be so anxious."
"They are all Xia Yifeng's dogs. They will run wherever Xia Yifeng points. If Xia Yifeng really gives the order, I don't expect them to tell me the truth." Mu Yan did not stop his movements and quickly put on his clothes.
coat, pack the belongings that should be brought with you. When she once again saw the thick stack of banknotes that Xia Yifeng personally handed to her, Mu Yan suddenly curled up the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly.
It's a shame he can think of spending money to send people away.
After packing everything up in the shortest time, Mu Yan gave Qi Heichu and Leng Yan'er a few more instructions before planning to leave for Yixuan Country. After rejecting Qi Heichu's offer to escort her back, Mu Yan walked to the courtyard.
, jumped on the horse's back, then looked deeply at the two people under him, turned the horse's head silently, and walked out
But before he had gone far, Mu Yan was stopped by someone.
"Boss, it's not good." The fourth master panted and appeared in front of Mu Yan, blocking Mu Yan's progress and wiping the sweat from his forehead. The fourth master looked at Mu Yan in a panic and said, "It's the other way around. They
It’s all the opposite!”
"What do you mean? Tell me slowly." Mu Yan's eyes flashed coldly, he jumped off the horse and looked at the fourth master and asked, "Where did you come back from?"
"Outside..." Fourth Master answered Mu Yan's words in a confused manner. After a pause, he turned back to the focus of the topic and continued: "I just came back from the snowy mountains, but on the way,
But I found that someone was following me, and later I saw that the person was actually one of the emperor’s men. Tell me, they are all our own, why are they following me?!”
The fourth master looked at Mu Yan, Leng Yaner and Qi Heichu with an unhappy expression, and gritted his teeth and said: "Not only that, they also shamelessly said that they wanted to ensure my safety after I caught them, and also told me
They don’t allow me to go out of Cangming country. They say that the border has been closed now. Let me come back and tell you that you can just stay at home! Boss, tell me, what do they mean by this!"
The border is closed and no one is allowed to leave Cangming Country?!
Fourth Master's words made Mu Yan stunned. He glanced sideways at Leng Yaner and Qi Heichu. Mu Yan clenched his fist hard and exuded a murderous aura.
He threw the baggage into Fourth Master's arms and handed the horse rein to Fourth Master. Mu Yan raised his lips and said, "You go back with Yan'er and wait while Hei Chu and I go out and be back soon."
"
After bidding farewell to Leng Yaner and Fourth Master, Mu Yan and Qi Heichu quickly arrived at the Cangming Palace. Mu Yan hid in the distance, looked at the heavily guarded palace, and then asked Qi Heichu beside him:
"What do you think is the chance that I will be put under house arrest if I go in now?"
"They don't dare"
"They have Xia Yifeng as a shield, how can they not dare?" Mu Yan sneered, overturning Qi Heichu's inference and said, "Let's go in with me and walk around before we talk."
