The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chapter 493 Master

In the evening, Xiao Mubei, Chu Yunxi and their group finally arrived at Yinghe Town. In order not to attract attention, the Purple Guards and the Imperial Guards did not enter the town, but temporarily set up camp outside the town. Only Xiao Mubei, Chu Yunxi, Baiyu Heimu and Zi Han, brought Muchen to Yinghe Town.

Just as they arrived at the gate of Yinghe Town, Muchen stretched his head out, then retracted it and asked curiously, "Sister, are you going to send Muchen home first?"

Chu Yunxi was stunned for a moment, "Is your home here?"

Muchen nodded seriously, "Yes, uncle is here."

Is it such a coincidence? Chu Yunxi glanced at Xiao Mubei and said, "In that case, let's send Mu Chen home tomorrow."

Mu Chen nodded happily, "Sister is so nice."

Staying in the inn at night, Chu Yunxi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She always felt that something was going to happen. Xiao Mubei hugged her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chu Yunxi shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I just feel uneasy and don't know what's going on."

Xiao Mubei patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. Bai Yu and Hei Mu have already gone to Huo Zixu's residence to investigate. Senior Brother should be here tonight, so nothing will happen."

Chu Yunxi thought about it, there were so many of them and the other party was just a small county magistrate, so nothing should happen. Maybe she was worrying too much, so she suppressed her surging emotions, nestled in Xiao Mubei's arms and slowly fell asleep.

She didn't sleep for too long. She woke up at dawn. Xiao Mubei was no longer by her side. Through the screen, she heard Bai Yu reporting to Xiao Mubei in a low voice, "My subordinates and Hei Mu watched the Huo Mansion all night, and there was nothing unusual. Huo Zixu summoned a few beautiful concubines to sleep with him at night, and we didn't see the expert that General Luo mentioned. There were only a few palace soldiers."

Xiao Mubei's voice said, "Okay, has Master Wen arrived?"

"We're here, let's rest outside."

"Okay, you guys go and have a rest too. Send Mu Chen back first, and then we'll go catch Huo Zixu."

Bai Yu responded and left. Xiao Mubei turned around the screen and saw Chu Yunxi with her eyes open, so he took two quick steps and sat down beside the bed. "Did I wake you up?"

Chu Yunxi shook her head, rested her head on his legs, closed her eyes and said, "I wasn't sleeping that deeply anyway, I woke up on my own. We're going to send Mu Chen off later, right?"

"Yes, send him back. If his uncle is fine, we can arrest Huo Zixu and leave."

Chu Yunxi was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't think his uncle is a good person. If he really treats Muchen badly, I have to teach him a lesson. Muchen is simple-minded and cannot be taken advantage of by others."

"Okay, let's settle Mu Chen before we deal with Huo Zixu." Xiao Mubei touched Chu Yunxi's hair, "Do you want to sleep a little longer? It's still early."

Chu Yunxi opened her eyes and said, "I can't sleep. Senior brother is here, right?"

"Rest outside. He must be in a hurry to get there. Let him rest for a while. Call him when it's time for breakfast." Xiao Mubei hugged Chu Yunxi and lay on the bed. "Rest for a while."

So Chu Yunxi slept for a while longer, and they didn't get up until it was bright. They asked the waiter to bring food to the room, and called Wen Rulan and Muchen to eat together.

During the meal, Wen Rulan kept asking about Mu Chen. Chu Yunxi told him about how she found Mu Chen. Wen Rulan asked, "Young man, who taught you kung fu?"

Apart from answering every question from Chu Yunxi, Muchen still held a deep hostility towards everyone else. He never even answered Xiao Mubei's questions, let alone Wen Rulan, who he just met. He acted as if he didn't hear anything and continued to eat.

Wen Rulan was furious. Chu Yunxi smiled secretly and explained, "His uncle told him that those who want to get close to him are bad people, so he never talks to others. If anyone tries to get close to him, he will attack them. I only ignore you because you are all with me. I am already giving you face, right, Muchen?"

When Mu Chen heard Chu Yunxi calling him, he raised his head and nodded. Without even looking at Wen Rulan, he continued to eat.

Wen Rulan covered her face, and Chu Yunxi asked, "Brother, do you also feel that Mu Chen's martial arts are very powerful?"

Wen Rulan put down her hand, looked at Mu Chen, and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid you have the strength to fight me."

You know, Wen Rulan has rarely encountered an opponent since he came to this era. This is why Chu Yunxi would ask him for help whenever there was a tricky murderer. But now he actually said that Muchen could fight with him. This shows that Muchen, at a young age, has already achieved very high attainments in martial arts. With time, it would not be difficult for him to surpass Wen Rulan.

When Chu Yunxi took in Yue Yanran earlier, she once said that the simpler a person's mind is, the easier it is for them to surpass ordinary people when learning a skill. Just like Yue Yanran, after such a long period of experience, her medical skills are already completely independent. Then Mu Chen should be a genius in martial arts.

If such a person is taken advantage of by bad people, it will be a terrible thing.

After dinner, Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi took Baiyu and Heimu to send Mu Chen home. Wen Rulan would go to Huo Zixu's mansion to meet them later. As for Zi Han, she went out of the city to inform the Purple Guards and the Imperial Guards to sneak into the city in different places and lie in ambush near Huo Zixu's mansion to prevent any accidents from happening during the arrest.

After everything was completely arranged, Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi set off first.

Muchen sat in front of the carriage and pointed the way. After turning left and right, after about a cup of tea, Muchen said, "We're here."

There was no movement outside the carriage for a long time. Xiao Mubei felt a little strange and called out, "Bai Yu?"

Bai Yu opened the carriage door, his face heavy, and said, "My Lord, Princess, this is Huo Zixu's residence."

"What?" Xiao Mubei was also shocked. Chu Yunxi's eyes flickered and she said, "So that's it."

She had been feeling uneasy from yesterday to today, always feeling that something was going to happen. Now that she saw that Much Chen was actually from Huo Zixu's family, she instantly had the answer. It turned out that ever since she entered Yinghe Town, she had always had a worry in her heart, that is, Much Chen was Huo Zixu's man, but she had always been unwilling to think about it. But if this was the case, then General Luo's words would make sense, and everything would make sense. Much Chen was the master beside Huo Zixu that General Luo mentioned!

Thinking about becoming an enemy of Mu Chen, and thinking about what Wen Rulan said about how powerful Mu Chen was, Chu Yunxi couldn't help sweating in her palms. This abominable Huo Zixu actually took advantage of Mu Chen's innocence and helped him do something that was harmful to the world. She absolutely couldn't let him go! But the biggest problem at the moment was how to get Mu Chen to switch sides?
