My lady, I'm going to rebel.

Going down the mountain, Lizidu was hiding behind a big tree.

Obviously, he was nearby when Zhang Can escaped down the mountain.

Ha ha!

Mu Zheng gave him a sneer.

Li Zidu rubbed his hands and said, "Well, I didn't tell you that because I was worried that you wouldn't act like it."

Ha ha!

"Who are you? What is your relationship with Emperor Cheng of Han?" Mu Zheng asked.

this……

Li Zidu looked at Li Lian, and Li Lian looked at Li Zidu. Mu Zheng pretended not to notice the eye contact between the two.

After waiting for a while, Li Zidu said, "Our master is the son of Emperor Liu."

What?

Mu Zheng almost sprained his ankle.

Everyone knows that Liu Ao was a fool. He was greedy for beauty and had sex with both men and women. He first favored his male favorite Zhang Fang. How much did he favor him? "He slept and woke with the emperor, and was extremely favored!"

Imagine that scene yourself!

Then he doted on the sisters Zhao Feiyan and Zhao Hede. To what extent did he dote on them? Anyway, no one in the harem could give birth to a child. One time, a concubine named Xu became pregnant and gave birth to a son. This made Zhao Hede furious. She cried and made a fuss, and even forced Liu Ao to strangle her own son to death!

He actually did it.

Because of this, Liu Ao did not leave behind any sons or daughters before his death, but now Li Zidu says that his master is a descendant of Emperor Cheng?

Why does it sound so fake?

Seeing Mu Zheng's disbelief, Li Lian immediately said, "Really? We didn't lie to you. Our master is truly a descendant of Emperor Liu, and the reason we assist him is that we hope to one day kill Wang Mang and restore the Han Dynasty. We hope to restore the Han Dynasty to its glory as it was during Emperor Wu's reign, and ensure that the people have enough food and clothing."

Mu Zheng pursed his lips and said nothing.

When he heard Li Lian talk about supporting the Han Dynasty, he was thinking of introducing him to Liu Xiu in the future. Now it seems that Li Lian already had a target. In a sense, the two sides are still in a competitive relationship.

"Brother Mu, through our interactions over this period of time, I've discovered that you share the same goals and ideas as us. Why not join us and work together to restore the Han Dynasty?"

ha?

Mu Zheng subconsciously wanted to refuse.

He wanted to overthrow Wang Mang, but his target was Liu Xiu.

Everyone else is cannon fodder.

But Mu Zheng held back. To be honest, he also wanted to see who the man who claimed to be the descendant of Emperor Liu was. He wanted to find out more about the other party first, so that he could know both himself and the enemy.

"What about Zhang Shen? Is he from the imperial court?" Mu Zheng thought, since the other party wanted to kill Li Lian and snatch the jade bi, he was most likely Wang Mang's man.

"Him?" Li Zidu curled his lips in disdain. "He's just a clown. The man behind him claims to be the son of Emperor Cheng of Han. Haha, everyone knows that Liu Ao has no children, but he's the one who came up with that."

What?

Mu Zheng was confused.

"Didn't your master claim to be a descendant of Emperor Liu? Why is he now saying that Liu Ao has no children?"

"What are you thinking?" Li Zidu rolled his eyes. "When did I ever say my master is a descendant of Emperor Cheng? My master, Liu Penzi, has the great-grandfather Liu Shun, King of Chengyang, the grandfather Liu Xian, Marquis of Shijie, and the father Liu Meng, Marquis of Shijie."

ha?

If Mu Zheng was still confused just now, he understood everything with the appearance of the name Liu Penzi.

For no other reason than that Liu Penzi's name was so damn strange, so Mu Zheng remembered a little bit about him.

Liu Penzi was indeed a descendant of the Han Dynasty, but after his father was killed by Wang Mang, he became a cowherd. However, he was lucky because of his special status. After Wang Mang was killed, he was pushed to the throne by a group of rebels and was known in history as Emperor Ji of Han.

But this man appeared in the public eye 6 years later, when he was only 15 years old. Now, he is just a 9-year-old child. How could he become the master of Li Lian and others?

"The man who is chasing us is called Zhang Can. We don't know what force is behind him, but we do understand his idea. He wants to pretend to be an uprising against the Han Dynasty." Li Zidu said.

Uh.

Mu Zheng rubbed his temples.

Skull hurts!

"Can I go back to the mountain with you?" Mu Zheng felt that he should go to the mountain to find out Liu Penzi's identity. He believed that there must be a force behind Liu Penzi. If he didn't find out about him, how could he know himself and the enemy in the future?

"I couldn't ask for more!" Li Zi was eager for Mu Zheng to join them. After all, this would be a great help, and it would be rare both in terms of combat power and brain power.

Seeing Li Zidu and Li Lian excited about his joining, Mu Zheng couldn't help but curse inwardly: Damn it! I haven't even started working for Liu Xiu yet, but I have to help him deal with the early stages of the problem first.

When I returned to Li's house, Han Zi happened to be there too.

According to Mu Zheng's plan, Han Zi went to Chang'an to study, and also took Yunniang with him to Chang'an.

Mu Zheng told everyone that he would go to Chang'an sooner or later, but the real reason was that Shandong was not safe.

Another night of battle.

Mu Zheng held Yunniang in his arms. Yunniang was still trembling from the fierceness just now.

"My lady, when you arrive in the capital, you will wait for your husband peacefully. At the latest, I will come to Chang'an to find you within a year."

"Ok!"

"Also, I had someone calculate it, and your birth chart is quite strong. If you meet a woman named Yin, you must make friends with her. She will be your benefactor."

"Yin?"

"Yes, remember. Yin!"

The next day, the originally bustling Li residence became quiet again.

Han Zi and Yun Niang left Donglai and went to Chang'an, the five snipers went to Chu with their mission, Gong Wen and Qi Yuxiu returned to Xiangdao, and Mu Zheng and the other two rushed to Yan.

Four directions: east, south, west and north.

Looking at the Donglai City getting farther and farther away, Mu Zheng couldn't help but sigh that he didn't know when he would be able to come back here again.

I hope that by then, the city will have changed, but the people will remain the same.

……

Mafu Mountain, located in the northwest of Handan City, is known as the "No. 1 Mountain in Handan".

This mountain is well-known in historical records. During the Warring States Period, Zhao She, a great general of the State of Zhao, fought against the invasion of the Qin army and achieved outstanding feats, earning him the title of Marquis of Mafu. After his death, he was buried here, and the mountain was named Mafu Mountain.

And Li Lian’s mountain gate is here.

"stop!"

A man holding a sword stood between the crowd.

Mu Zheng frowned and looked at Li Zidu beside him. Li Zidu's expression was also unhappy. He stepped forward and asked, "Meng Hao, what do you mean?"

The man called Meng Hao didn't even glance at Li Zidu. Instead, he swung his sword and said, "This road leads to Zifeng Mountain. Anyone who stands outside must leave immediately."

"Hammer!" Li Lian rolled up his sleeves and said, "Meng Hao, do you want to fight?"

Seeing Li Lian's ferocious look, Meng Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and then he raised his sword again: "This man is not suitable for me, Ma Fushan, let him go!"

Ok?

Mu Zheng frowned because he could already feel the other party's hostility.

But he didn't understand why the other party disliked him. He had never had any intersection with the other party, and had never even met him before?

"Meng Hao! Are you deliberately looking for trouble?" Li Lian had already taken up his stance. "Come on, come on, it's been a while since we two peaks have had a fight. If you want to cause trouble, I'll accompany you."

Seeing Li Lian's expression, Meng Hao was obviously a little hesitant. However, he still held the sword in his hand, pointing it at Mu Zheng, refusing to give in.

"Do you know me?" Mu Zheng stepped forward.

"I don't know him!" Meng Hao replied.

"Then let the person behind you come out!" Mu Zheng also raised the sword in his hand!
