My lady, I'm going to rebel.

Chapter 34: Horses Frightened in Bustling City

The leader was beaten, so what else could the remaining followers say? They could only express their anger and fear through facial expressions.

"Why don't you get out of here?" Mu Zheng scolded.

Then I saw the people brought by Bai Xiaoya running very fast.

After all the flies had flown away, Mu Zheng turned back to look at Li Lian and the others. He cleared his throat and said, "Well, can someone tell me what the hell you're doing?"

Hearing this, everyone looked constipated.

Mu Zheng tutted his words and looked at Li Lian: "How about you come and tell it yourself?"

Li Lian's expression became a little unnatural again.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and said, "Well, since you've heard it, I won't hide it anymore. I'm delivering food to the disaster area."

Mu Zheng was not surprised by this answer. After all, he had heard it several times just now.

but……

He smiled and said, "I still like to hear the truth."

Sending food to the disaster area is a good deed, how could he lose his head? This kid can't even tell a lie.

Li Lian glanced at Mu Zheng guiltily: "The recipient is the rebel army."

really!

Mu Zheng knew it was like this.

"How long can General Lu and his men hold out?" Mu Zheng asked Li Lian.

Li Lian looked at Mu Zheng in disbelief: "You don't call them rebels?"

Mu Zheng shrugged: "I'm really not your father's man. If you must say, my relationship with him is just that I promised him to protect you."

……

The caravan continued on its journey. Cao Pengfei clearly felt that after a good sleep, the caravan became much more harmonious.

Li Lian could even talk and laugh with Mu Zheng, which made him very unhappy.

The young master is still too young and easily deceived by wild men.

After leaving Donglai, the caravan arrived in Jimo, which was under the jurisdiction of Langya County, but in modern times, it was the territory of Qingdao.

When Mu Zheng thought of Qingdao, he thought of beer.

However, in this era, alcohol is actually a luxury.

After all, people can't even fill their stomachs, so how can they have extra food to make wine?

There are some fruit-flavored wines among the people, but the taste is very light. Mu Zheng drinks them like juice.

Sitting in the carriage, waving the whip, Li Lian would talk to Mu Zheng from time to time. Especially when he knew that Mu Zheng was from Haiqu, he kept pestering him to talk about the Lu family uprising.

When Mu Zheng was bored, he would talk to him. When he was in a bad mood, he would close his eyes and pretend to sleep. Li Lian was so angry that he said he would go back and complain to his father. He spent 50 horses to hire a master for him.

"This is Chunde. We'll rest in the city for three days." Li Lian swung his legs. Seeing Mu Zheng's confused face, he explained: "Chunde is the former Jiao County."

what?

Mu Zheng subconsciously stretched his neck.

Wang Mang's favorite thing to do after coming to power was to change place names. Not only outsiders, but even some local people could not remember their new registered addresses.

Jiaoxian is a famous historical and cultural city.

This place gave birth to the Dawenkou Culture and the Longshan Culture. Mu Zheng sighed and wondered if he should find a stone slab, carve his name on it, and then bury it in Dawenkou.

Let the archaeological experts two thousand years from now guess enough!

Haha, it must be fun!

Mu Zheng was daydreaming when he felt that something was wrong with Li Lian beside him.

"What's wrong with you?" Mu Zheng saw Li Lian holding the reins tightly with both hands, looking around from time to time.

"It seems a little impatient." Li Lian pinched the horse's belly.

It was referring to the mount under Li Lian. Mu Zheng was about to go forward to check it out when suddenly a gong sound was heard. The harsh sound scared the horse.

It was startled.

The horse kicked its hind legs wildly and before Mu Zheng could react, it spread its legs and ran forward.

In just a blink of an eye, the frightened horse had knocked over five or six stalls, and several pedestrians on the road were crying and dodging everywhere.

"Mu Zheng!" Li Lian was obviously frightened as well. He held the reins tightly and almost fell on the horse's back.

As the horses' hooves raged, the whole street was in a mess.

Chase!

Mu Zheng ran towards the horse without hesitation, and Gong Wen and Cao Pengfei followed closely behind him.

Da da da……

There was the sound of horse hooves.

Mu Zheng was sweating profusely while chasing.

However, the frightened horse could ignore the pedestrians on the street, but Mu Zheng had to avoid them. As the delay continued, the distance between them grew wider and wider.

Li Lian also realized this problem. He pulled the reins with all his strength, trying to make the galloping horse turn around.

Fortunately, there was a wall in front. Seeing the frightened horse turn around, Mu Zheng jumped off the horse without hesitation. He stuffed the reins into Gong Wen's hands and said, "Get out of the way."

As soon as he finished speaking, the frightened horse was right in front of him. Mu Zheng sank his feet and, seizing the right moment, pounced on the horse.

The horse neighed loudly and raised its front hooves high.

Everyone exclaimed in shock. If Mu Zheng hadn't been able to control it, it would probably have died tragically under the horse's hooves.

Just as the horse reared up, Li Lian fell off. Mu Zheng landed on the horse's back, gripping the reins tightly and trying to control his head.

"Young Master, are you hurt?" Cao Pengfei helped Li Lian up, but at this time he had no intention of taking care of himself. Seeing Mu Zheng struggling hard on the horse's back, Li Lian was so anxious that he almost jumped up.

Call...

Mu Zheng tried to calm the horse with his voice, but the horse kept turning in circles, jumping forward and backward, trying to throw Mu Zheng off.

But Mu Zheng seemed to be attached to the horse's back, clinging to the horse's neck tightly.

But just this hug made Mu Zheng horrified. The horse's eyes were actually red!

This?

A bad premonition flashed through Mu Zheng's mind, and then he drew out the Luoyang sword without hesitation and slashed it, and a streak of blood spurted out.

"Mu Zheng, that's the young master's favorite BMW." Cao Pengfei shouted.

Mu Zheng acted as if he didn't hear it and stabbed the horse's neck again.

In fact, Mu Zheng was reluctant to harm the horse unless it was absolutely necessary. After all, as Li Lian's mount, it must be extremely valuable.

When Li Lian saw Mu Zheng using the knife, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. He wanted to stop Mu Zheng, but finally he endured it.

Strangely enough, after Mu Zheng struck the horse twice, the horse actually stopped being aggressive. It was just breathing heavily, its legs trembling, and it seemed to be unsteady on its feet.

It's not dead?

Li Lian was somewhat delighted.

Mu Zheng jumped off the horse, breathing heavily, "Don't worry, I will be careful when I attack."

Li Lian looked at Mu Zheng gratefully, and for the first time he felt that his father had done the right thing.

The caravan members also caught up, as well as some vendors and pedestrians who were hit by the horses.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Mu Zheng immediately clasped his fists and said, "The caravan will shoulder all the responsibility for this loss. We will treat the wounded and alleviate the shock. Everyone, calm down."

Ok?

There was nothing wrong with what Mu Zheng said, but it sounded wrong to Cao Pengfei.

How can a guard like you make the decision? After all, he is the one in charge of the caravan.

Cao Pengfei looked at Li Lian, thinking that Li Lian would scold Mu Zheng, but Li Lian told him to do as he was told.

Cao Pengfei was not very happy, so he gritted his teeth and left.

Li Lian, who had calmed down, stroked the horse lovingly. "This horse is called Zhuifeng. It has been with me for many years. It's usually very well-behaved. I don't know what happened today. The gongs and drums scared it like this."

Hearing Li Lian's mumbling, Mu Zheng walked to the front of the horse.

The red in the horse's eyes had faded considerably. Mu Zheng touched the blood flowing from his neck, then sniffed it. "It must have been poisoned."
