Chapter 49 The wind fills the building with desire
In other words, not long after he and Shi Xiaoyu returned to the palace, Shi Xiaoyu's senior sister entered the city.
"Any more?"
"Yes! Today, Ning Cheng was publicly executed in the valley in the south of the city, and no one came to rob the execution ground."
"Any more?"
But when Li Mu asked again, Deng Aizuo shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, no... no more."
"You didn't, but I did!" After finding a comfortable position for himself to sit in, Li Mu said to Deng Ai in an unassuming voice: "I'm telling you, I left the palace today."
"Wha...what? Your Majesty left the palace today?" With his eyes widened, Deng Ai took two steps back and said to Li Mu in disbelief.
"Well, not only did I leave the palace under your noses, I also went to Ma Di's house."
After saying this to Deng Ai, regardless of Deng Ai's mood at the moment, Li Mu suddenly stood up and walked to him and said: "Deng Ai, you really have a vicious eye when looking at people, and Ma Su has lived up to your expectations of him.
.”
"General Ma? Your Majesty, did General Ma...he agree?"
"Well!" Facing Deng Ai's stunned face, Li Mu said to him again: "General Deng won't blame me for leaving the palace without informing you."
"No... no... how dare I blame His Majesty? It's just that... Your Majesty came out of the palace and was frightened... to the point of... General, I need to slow down."
"Please slow down. When you're done, tell me!"
"promise……"
With Li Mu waiting, Deng Ai left Shenxin Palace.
Standing at the door of Shenxin Palace, Deng Ai took three deep breaths to calm down his heart that was frightened by Li Mu.
After calming down, Deng Ai turned around and walked into Shenxin Palace, and said to Li Mu, "Your Majesty, I will finally calm down."
"Now that things are better, I have something I want you to do."
Before Deng Ai could ask, Li Mu then said to him: "Wang Agui, the bartender at Yunlai Restaurant in the north of the city, died because of me. I want you to do two things for me."
be sure!
But after hearing Li Mu use the word "must", Deng Ai did not dare to neglect and clasped his fist at Li Mu and said: "Your Majesty, you will do your best according to your orders."
"First thing, I want you to bring back Wang Agui's body no matter what method you use, so that he can be buried properly."
"The second thing, you find Ask a reliable person to find out if Wang Aguishang still has any family members alive? If so...if so..."
Speaking of this, Li Mu paused slightly and said: "This man has passed away, but the living is like this! I can no longer make up for my debt to Wang Agui, but I must make up for this debt to his relatives."
"Promise! I will definitely live up to His Majesty's orders."
But after hearing what Li Mu said, Deng Ai's body was also shaken.
Sure enough, he was right. When he first met Li Mu, he felt that Li Mu was "good". He was "benevolent", and he was the most benevolent and benevolent ruler in the world.
Nowadays, the world is in chaos and the heroes are divided. At this critical moment, a benevolent ruler like Li Mu is needed to end this chaotic world.
After Li Mu's voice fell, Pang Juan looked at him, and Ji Ming also looked at him.
The two men looked at Li Mu in different ways. Pang Juan looked at it with struggle, while Ji Ming looked at it with two contradictory eyes. The two contradictions were one part jealousy and three parts admiration.
"correct!"
Just when Deng Ai had begun to long for ending this troubled world under the leadership of Li Mu, Li Mu pulled him back from his longing.
"There are several people in the north of the city. The name of the head who serves these people is Peng Yue. Find a reliable person to tell Ma Di and ask him to secretly check which households these people belong to. Remember,
Tell him not to disturb Peng Yue."
"Peng Yue?" But hearing this name, Deng Ai also asked Li Mu doubtfully: "Your Majesty, who is this Peng Yue?"
"The person who killed Wang Agui is the person Shi Xiaoyu followed yesterday."
"The general understands!"
At this moment, Deng Ai was a little ashamed. He was ashamed that Li Mu had finished what he was supposed to do in just one day.
"By the way, there is one more thing!" Just when Deng Ai was feeling ashamed of his inability, Li Mu spoke again.
But hearing that Li Mu still had something to give him, Deng Ai hurriedly put his thoughts aside and looked forward to it.
"that……"
Under Deng Ai's almost astonishing expression, Li Mu said to him a little nervously: "Deng Ai, that...
You haven’t had time to read the secret letter I asked Pang Juan to give you."
"Ah?" He thought that Li Mu had something important to explain to him, but he didn't expect that this was what Li Mu had to explain to him.
This question really caught Deng Ai off guard.
"Not... not yet!" Deng Ai hurriedly replied, and then hurriedly explained to Xiang Li Mu: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, the last general..."
"Just burn it without looking at it!" Before Deng Ai could explain, Li Mu interrupted him with a solemn expression.
"Ah? Your Majesty...Your Majesty...why...why? General..."
"Burn it now, burn it in front of me, don't grind it, hurry up!"
But seeing that Li Mu was not joking, and seeing that Li Mu was pressing so hard, Deng Ai reluctantly took out the handwritten letter from Li Mu that Pang Juan had given him, even though he didn't know the reason.
When Deng Ai took out the secret letter, a burst of laughter suddenly sounded in Shen Xin Palace.
This laugh comes from Pang Juan!
When Pang Juan thought it was inappropriate and was about to retract his smile, Li Mu's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Pang Juan, you are finally willing to make me laugh!"
Luo Yufeng left for her hometown in Yicheng in the early morning, and Ma Di saw her off in person.
When the couple separated in front of the city gate, they didn't say anything disgusting.
"Madam, take care!" Ma Di said to Luo Yufeng while standing in front of the carriage.
"Take care of yourself too!" Luo Yufeng put down the car curtain and held back tears.
Under the watch of the city gate soldiers, Ivern raised his whip and whipped it on the horse.
The horse was in pain, neighed and ran away in the dust.
After the carriage reached the official road, a city guard trotted up to Ma Su with a diligent look on his face and said, "General Ma, why did Madam leave?"
"None of your business!" Ma Su replied coldly.
This hot face touched a cold butt, and the city guard didn't care and continued to pester Ma Su: "General Ma, don't worry, I have to ask because I am acting under orders!"
"Acting on orders? Whose orders?"
"Of course it is Qin Zhongshu's order. Before Qin Zhongshu left, he told us that no matter how high his official rank is, we must ask those who come in and out of the city. Even the family members have to ask why."
The Qin Zhongshu mentioned by the city guard is Qin Hui!
Now that the city guard mentioned Qin Hui's name, Ma Su also thought of Wang Mang's number one confidant.
According to Wang Mang, Qin Hui went out of the city to do business. As for what business he was going to do, Wang Mang did not mention it.
"Since it is Qin Zhongshu's order, I won't embarrass you. Just write it down and remember that my wife is pregnant and has returned to her hometown in Yicheng to rest."
"Dele!"
Seeing Ma Su's cooperation, the city guard was very happy.
"correct!"
Just when the city guard was about to take notes, Ma Di suddenly called him and asked: "I wonder if this general knows where Qin Zhongshu has gone and when he will come back?"
"Why does General Ma ask this?" But after listening to Ma Di's question, the city guard suddenly thought and said: "I understand, General Ma also wants to know the return date of Qin Zhongshu first, so that he can go to Qin Zhongshu first.
Are you going to visit me at home?"
"Eh?"
Ma Su really didn't expect that before he could find a reason to ask Qin Hui's whereabouts, the city guard had already thought of it for him.
Before Ma Su could speak, the somewhat clever city guard spoke to Ma Su: "General Ma, I really don't know when Qin Zhongshu will return. But if General Ma wants to wait for Qin Zhongshu first, I can do it for him."
The general pointed out a clear place. The official road in the north of the city. Qin Zhongshu went to the north of Hebei. General Ma just sent people to Beitou to wait."
Northern Hebei?
But after hearing what the city guard said, Ma Su was slightly shocked!
Although he didn't know how the city guard knew Qin Hui's whereabouts, Ma Di knew that northern Hebei belonged to Li Tang.
Thinking of Li Tang, Ma Su naturally linked the purpose of Qin Hui's trip to northern Hebei with Zhen Mi!
It's no wonder he thinks so, because throughout the entire Ye City, Zhen Mi is the only one who has a relationship with the Li family in northern Hebei.
Keeping this in mind, Ma Di pretended to be worried and entered the city gate.
It was still early at this time, and some vendors had just begun to set up their stalls.
Li Mu's visit yesterday indeed shocked him enough.
What shocked him the most was that Li Mu was able to leave the palace under the guard of the Feather Eagle Guards.
