Quick travel: the leisurely life of cannon fodder

After Mu Xi came back from leave, she bought some meat, made a soup, and cooked a few dishes. After they were all cooked, Mu's father and mother also came back.

"Mom and Dad, you're back. Come over here. I've already cooked dinner for tonight."

When Mu's mother and father heard what Mu Xi said, they walked over. Mu's mother said distressedly, "Xiao Xi, you have worked so hard. Your father and I were at work yesterday and didn't come back. Today, I heard from others that you had suffered. Fortunately, nothing happened."

“Mom and Dad, don’t blame yourselves. It’s not your fault. Come and try the dinner I made.”

After comforting Mu's father and mother, Mu Xi served two bowls of soup to them and put some harmless powder that helps with sleeping in it. Mu Xi had to go out to do something tonight to prevent Mu's father and mother from waking up in the middle of the night and finding something wrong.

Mr. and Mrs. Mu took the soup prepared by Mu Xisheng and started to drink it, praising her from time to time.

"Mom and Dad, because of what happened last night, Minister Cui gave me a half-month vacation." Mu Xi told Mu's father and mother about this with a smile.

Hearing this, Mu Mu was relieved and said, "Xiao Xi, you have suffered this time, it is better to rest at home. Besides, if you go to the art troupe now, people outside may make up stories about you. You should wait until the matter is clear before going back to work."

When Mu Xi heard Mu Mu's words of concern for her, she smiled and nodded obediently.

After the meal, Mu's father and mother asked Mu Xi about her well-being, fearing that this incident might have left a shadow on her.

After dinner, the sleeping powder quickly took effect, and both Mu's father and mother returned to their room feeling a little sleepy. They both thought that they were so sleepy because they were too tired from working overtime, so they didn't notice anything wrong.

After Mu's father and mother fell asleep, Mu Xi let Dabai out to bargain, to prevent some people from becoming desperate and directly attacking the Mu family.

After everything was arranged, Mu Xi, with the help of his mental power and the system, successfully avoided many guards and came to the place where Lin Qi was imprisoned. He used mental power to hypnotize, interrogate, and erase memories. After a series of operations, he learned the identity of that person from Lin Qi. After getting the information he wanted, Mu Xi left directly without leaving any trace.

Mu Xi saw that it was still early and the man was also from the military district, so she followed the information provided by Lin Qi and went to look for him. As for the people in the military district who also knew about the man, why didn't they arrest him directly? Mu Xi guessed that they were afraid of alerting the enemy and also wanted to find the person behind it.

Mu Xi came to the building where the military families lived, and indeed found someone squatting there. Mu Xi put an invisibility talisman on herself and went up. When she found the person, she used the same method she had used on Lin Qi just now. She asked directly about the person behind the scenes, and then left.

Mu Xi learned from that person that the person who instructed him to do this was a member of a branch of the Lu family. This was also learned by accident.

Lu family!

Seeing that half of the night's time had passed, Mu Xi went home to think about what was going on with the Lu family.

According to the original owner's memory, in the original plot, there was indeed a Lu family that succeeded in taking power after the Mu family fell, but a few years later, it also fell.

However, the original owner did not pay much attention to the feuds between various forces and families, so he did not find out about the feud between the Lu family and the Mu family or which force the Lu family belonged to.

However, after being reminded by the system, Mu Xi also learned that the Lu family was a small affiliated family of the Shangguan family. Coincidentally, the Lu family was still in Jiangcheng during this period. Mu Xi planned to visit the Lu family tomorrow to see if he could find any clues.
