The conversation between Miao Qingcheng and Miao Chongwei was not disclosed to anyone.
After returning to the room, Miao Qingcheng briefly wrote down what happened tonight on a piece of paper, rolled it into a tube, opened the birdcage hanging on the inside of the window, and put it into the bamboo tube on the side of the pigeon's leg.
In the silence of the night, white doves fly into the sky.
The major branches of the Sanjiang League have cultivated many carrier pigeons for communication.
Of course, it is very troublesome to cultivate this kind of homing pigeon, which requires a lot of money and is not cheap to buy. Ordinary first-class sects will just keep a few pigeons until they are exhausted.
In another room.
Zhuo Mufeng, who was lying on the bed, looked at the white shadow flashing outside the window, with a thick bitter smile on his face.
He expected that letting Miao Chongwei go would arouse suspicion, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. As expected, no one who can take the helm is simple.
On the surface, he is bold and generous, and he does not stick to trivial details. In fact, he is rough and subtle, and he hides his hidden edge. From the moment he saw Miao Chongwei, Zhuo Mufeng made a judgment.
But there was no other way. He didn't want to be manipulated by Cui Baojian at will, so he could only bite the bullet and move forward, trying to find a way out of the whirlpool. Although it would be very difficult and his life would be in danger at every turn, he had no choice!
"Water comes and earth covers it, and soldiers come to block it, but you can't find anything."
With a low murmur, Zhuo Mufeng closed his eyes, worked hard all night, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
When he got up the next day, after washing up, a servant immediately invited him to the side hall, where he found that Miao Qingcheng and Wu Yuanyuan were both there, eating breakfast.
One of the two girls is wearing a goose-yellow gauze dress, and her hair is combed into a dragon bun that represents a woman's status, showing her grace and beauty. The other is wearing a bright red gauze dress, with long hair reaching her waist, and a red ribbon floating on her back. Although she is a virgin in the boudoir, she is full of passion.
Enchanting and charming.
Mother and daughter sitting together having breakfast, without any modification, is the most beautiful picture. The old witch is really lucky.
After hearing the noise, Miao Qingcheng raised her head first, with a gentle smile on her beautiful face, and patted the place next to her: "Mu Feng is here, come and sit down."
Wu Yuanyuan snorted coldly, without raising her head. She vigorously poked the side dishes on the plate with her chopsticks, not knowing what she was getting angry about.
Zhuo Mufeng called his adoptive mother. Although he was wary in his heart, he ran over and sat down cheerfully on the outside. This woman's smile was hidden in her smile. She was so polite so early in the morning, so she must not be holding anything back.
When a servant served the porridge and soup, Miao Qingcheng asked Zhuo Mufeng casually while picking up vegetables: "Mufeng, why did you stay drunk yesterday? Is it because you are dissatisfied?"
Zhuo Mufeng said quickly: "Nothing, I have been a little tired along the way. I have been practicing for two more days and I wanted to go to the city to relax. I accidentally drank too much, which makes you worried."
Miao Qingcheng found it funny.
The adopted son denied it with his mouth, accusing himself of teasing him both inside and outside of his words. He accidentally got drunk. How could he get drunk when he had nothing to worry about?
But maybe it was an excuse he deliberately made, and he couldn't be fooled.
Miao Qingcheng's beautiful eyes flashed and she said with a smile: "I heard that you left the city yesterday?"
Zhuo Mufeng's heart skipped a beat.
He was extremely careful when he left the city, blending in with the crowd and secretly walking around with dragons. In addition, the soldiers who checked were not strict, so it was logical that he would not be discovered.
However, there is no guarantee that the Sanjiang Alliance has great magical powers, and I don’t know from which channel it got the news.
Zhuo Mufeng felt uneasy all of a sudden. If he admitted it, turning back to Miao Qingcheng and telling Miao Chongwei about the matter would undoubtedly increase his suspicion.
If you deny it, if the other party has confirmed the news, you are not asking for trouble. Why would you deny going out of the city?
If he were an ordinary person, he would probably reveal his secret on the spot, but Zhuo Mufeng is not a vegetarian. Seeing Miao Qingcheng's smiling face, he immediately looked confused: "Leave the city? What kind of city? I don't have one."
He bet that Miao Qingcheng was deceiving him, because before the incident, the Sanjiang Alliance never expected anyone to deal with Miao Chongwei. Even if they had connections among the soldiers guarding the city, they would not be able to target him in advance.
Miao Qingcheng said oh, smiled and said nothing, looking enigmatic, which made Zhuo Mufeng feel unsure.
This woman is a bit scary. Based on her temperament when I first met her, I thought she was a gentle and amiable woman who would help her husband and raise her children. However, after getting in touch with her along the way, she came up with endless tricks to punish her. No wonder the old witch still doesn't have any concubines.
It is estimated that even if he takes it back, he will be scared away by this woman.
For a moment, an unprovoked thought suddenly occurred in Zhuo Mufeng's mind.
He himself is a very alert person, and Miao Qingcheng's questions undoubtedly confirmed the sub-ruler's suspicion about him. Could this woman be responsible for all this?
If this is the case, you cannot let the other party take the initiative, otherwise you will be in trouble!
Miao Qingcheng was planning to continue to bluff Zhuo Mufeng with a smile on her lips to make the other party confused and dominate the situation. Unexpectedly, Zhuo Mufeng suddenly said: "Father, who told you that the child left the city yesterday?"
?”
Miao Qingcheng raised her eyes and looked at him: "Is this important?"
Zhuo Mufeng stood up, raised his hands and said seriously: "Foster mother, I suspect that there is a traitor in the Sanjiang Alliance!"
In one sentence, not to mention Miao Qingcheng and Wu Yuanyuan, even the nine accompanying guards guarding outside the side hall couldn't help but look at each other.
Miao Qingcheng's smile faded: "What do you mean?" In fact, anger was rising in her heart.
If Zhuo Mufeng was not the one who did it, it would be impossible for him to know the specific situation outside the city last night, and it would be impossible for him to have such a big reaction after listening to her temptation. It was obviously an attempt to conceal the truth.
She just deliberately tried to scare the snake, just to test this boy, but now it seems that he has finally shown his fox tail.
Zhuo Mufeng said in a high-spirited manner: "Imagine, foster mother, my child did not leave the city yesterday, but someone came to you and made lies. Isn't this with ulterior motives?"
Why did that man falsely accuse me of leaving the city? Who was behind him? Thanks to his adoptive father, the boy never abandoned me and became the eldest son of the Sanjiang Alliance. There must be a serious reason for such a false accusation against me!
I also ask the foster mother to invite the person who framed him out, and let the child confront him face to face. I want to see who dares to sow discord and what his intentions are!"
There was silence in the side hall.
Miao Qingcheng was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. He thought that this guy was anxious to distance himself from himself and had been doing this for a long time. But he actually thought of going somewhere else because of his own temptation.
Miao Qingcheng could only say calmly: "It's just a small matter. Maybe the other party saw it wrong."
Zhuo Mufeng solemnly clasped his fists and said: "Don't be careless, foster mother! You must know that a thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an ant nest. The truth is often hidden in some small details.
The person who made the false accusation has ulterior motives and is trying to sow discord between you and me. He has great intentions and the person who comes here is evil. He even asked his adoptive mother to invite him over. I will definitely find out the mastermind behind this!"
Miao Qingcheng was speechless. It was just a lie on her part. If anyone saw Zhuo Mufeng leaving the city, she couldn't change her mind.
If there is one, it would be Mrs. Miao herself.
Wu Yuanyuan on the side couldn't help but stare at Zhuo Mufeng and said in disgust: "Don't make such a fuss, it's not that serious!"
This was the first time she took the initiative to speak to Zhuo Mufeng after the last garden incident, and her tone was harsh.
Zhuo Mufeng was not polite: "Making a fuss out of a molehill? My good girl, don't you know that the strongest fortresses are breached from within?
You see now, just because of that person's false accusation, I disturbed my adoptive mother's meal. Of course, my adoptive mother is a generous person and will not care about my rudeness. But if things go on like this, the villain keeps fanning the wind, accumulating little
If it becomes too large, it will inevitably not affect unity!"
After all, Wu Yuanyuan was not good at this kind of thing, so she was stunned by Zhuo Mufeng on the spot. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense.
Are there many sects in the world that have fallen apart due to internal conflicts? Although I don’t want to admit it, this bastard does win my father’s favor and is likely to be a core member in the future.
Wu Yuanyuan immediately pulled Miao Qingcheng's sleeve and persuaded in a low voice: "Mom, why not call that person out and let him confront Zhuo face to face."
Miao Qingcheng almost got angry. Looking at her baby daughter who was confused, and then looking at Zhuo Mufeng who looked for the sake of the Sanjiang Alliance, she felt like she had a toothache.
Isn't she just casually testing him? This guy is directly involved in the life and death of the Sanjiang Alliance. It seems that if someone doesn't confront him, the Sanjiang Alliance will be destroyed immediately.
But she couldn't reprimand, so she could only smile and say: "Mu Feng, it's hard for you to think so much of the Sanjiang Alliance. Don't worry, my mother will handle this matter."
Zhuo Mufeng frowned: "Foster mother, the nights are long and the dreams are many..."
"Sit down and eat!" The smiling tigress stopped laughing and started to show signs of going crazy.
Of course, Zhuo Mufeng was not stupid enough to offend the other party. He pretended to be helpless and sat down, sighing in a low voice. His look of helplessness made Miao Qingcheng want to smash the bowl in her hand.
Zhuo Mufeng secretly laughed in his heart, "Let me see what else you can do."
The breakfast ended with the three of them having their own thoughts.
From this alone, Miao Qingcheng could tell that this adopted son was not a good person and had to be dealt with carefully.
Zhuo Mufeng didn't want to get too close to Miao Qingcheng. This woman had ulterior motives. She probably doubted him. After breakfast, he quickly said that he wanted to go back to practice.
Unexpectedly, Miao Qingcheng stopped him and said with a smile: "Mufeng, my mother is going to visit an old friend in the city later. You and Yuan Yatou will go with me."
Zhuo Mufeng was too late to avoid him, so he dared not continue to contact her. He said with a grimace: "Foster mother, my martial arts skills are low. I wish I could practice all the time. What if I lose my reputation in the Sanjiang League one day?"
"Then what happened to you last night? Drinking can also promote martial arts practice?"
Miao Qingcheng smiled without any doubt: "Go and prepare quickly, we will set off later! Don't worry, my old friend's son and daughter are rare heroes in the world. You can ask them for advice when the time comes. You won't be able to do things behind closed doors.
"
Having said this, what else could Zhuo Mufeng do, so he could only agree with a smile.
There was nothing to prepare. He just waited for the time to come and followed Miao Qingcheng and Wu Yuanyuan out of the gate of the branch. On the way, Miao Qingcheng sent someone to buy some cakes and other gifts.
Zhuo Mufeng estimated that Miao Qingcheng must have a good relationship with the person she was about to visit, otherwise she would not have given such a common gift.
