Mu Hanzhong

Returning to the Qianye Palace where he had been "absent for many days", Wu Ye felt an imperceptible emotion that belonged to Yuan Mu Hanzhong gushing out from the depths of his heart.That kind of emotion is similar to the feeling of a person returning to his home after traveling for many days. No matter how exciting the outside world is, he can truly relax his body and mind, but he can only experience it at home.

In Mu Hanzhong's heart, Qianye Palace is like a home.Although Mu Hanzhong is a member of the royal family, he was brought up by the previous palace lord in Qianye Palace since he was a child.

Wu Ye traveled all the way, the sights he saw and the people he met all brought up pieces of spontaneous memories in his mind.When passing by a pond, Wu Ye paused, glanced at Qingyan Yilei beside him, and said with emotion: "I wonder if the two of you still remember what happened here back then?"

The two looked at each other, but after a short pause, both realized what he was talking about.

Back then, Mu Hanzhong was far away from his parents and was taken to Qianye Palace. In the first few months of his arrival, he kept throwing temper tantrums.Once there was a big commotion, so they ran to the pond and threatened the previous palace lord, Mu Yunxiao, to send him back to Beijing.Mu Yunxiao let go of Mu Hanzhong in a fit of anger, and Mu Hanzhong jumped into the pond in late autumn to save face.Thanks to Yilei Qingyan who came after him and rescued him, he managed to save his life.But the two were punished for disobedience.

Qingyan recalled the scene of that year, although he didn't know why he suddenly mentioned it, but she also felt emotionally: "Back then, Lord, you didn't let us all worry less."

"When I was young, I was spoiled by my mother, concubine and father, and I didn't understand the master's intentions..." Wu Ye smiled lightly, stopped pausing on his feet, took another look at the pond, and continued walking towards his bedroom.

Only Qingyan Yilei, who was suspicious, and Xiaohuan, who still had an expressionless face, were left behind.

Wu Ye went back to his bedroom and sent Qingyan Yilei and two to recuperate and rest. He was about to say a few words to Xiaohuan who was always by his side when he was interrupted by a figure that appeared suddenly.The man's footsteps were extremely light, and when Wu Ye heard the sound, he had already floated in front of Wu Ye like a ghost, knelt down on one knee, and said in a low voice, "My lord."

His voice was low and hoarse, revealing a strange sense of unreality.Wu Ye heard the sound and looked at him, only to see that the person in front of him was covered in a black cloak, only a mask of ghost face and fangs was exposed.

"Shufeng?"

The four guardians of Qianye Palace, Dong Qingyan, Nan Xiaohuan, Xi Yilei... and Bei Shuofeng.Wu Ye finally saw the last person left.

"I just received the news that the various branches of Beitang rebelled during Shenshi. The rebel party under He Yanqin has been completely wiped out according to your master's order."

After Bei Shuofeng saluted, he got up and came to Wu Ye, explaining some matters in the palace during his departure, and finally took out a sealed envelope from the cloak, and handed it to Wu Ye: "This is the list of rebellious parties in various places. "

But Wu Ye didn't answer, just immersed himself in studying the ghost face and fangs on Bei Shuofeng's mask.That mask didn't look like the usual one painted in various colors, with a bloody mouth open.Its proportions are exactly the same as the face of a normal person, with two black holes dug out of it, exposing a pair of sharp and ruthless eyes like a falcon, a beautiful straight nose in the middle, and a bright red mouth painted on it, obviously normal facial features, But it made the people who watched it terrified and panicked.The reason was probably because the color of the mask in front of him was too white, so white that Wu Ye could not describe it. If he wanted to describe it, he could only say that white color, which seemed to exist only in the netherworld.

He watched with relish, but the eyebrows of the person under the mask were slightly frowned: "My lord?"

But Wu Ye ignored it, murmured admiration for a while, "Good workmanship!"

Bei Shuofeng is unknown.

Wu Ye finally came to his senses, took the envelope from his hand, opened it, and compared it with the name in his memory while looking at it, Wu Ye found that there was not much difference, and his appreciation for Mu Hanzhong's ability increased a little in his heart.Quick-tempered, calm and calm, the young man in the void is not as fond of following one's heart and sensuality as he appears to outsiders.

After reading the list and thinking for a while, Wu Ye stood up from the desk and straightened his clothes.

"My lord, what is this?"

"Take me to see He Yanqin." After speaking to Bei Shuofeng, Wu Ye looked at Nan Xiaohuan who had been standing silently beside him, almost making people forget his existence.After returning to the palace, he changed into black clothes, and his hair was tied up high, revealing a full forehead, thick eyebrows straight into the temples, long and narrow black eyes calm and introverted, standing there expressionless, even in the presence of heavy guards Inside the main hall of Qianye Palace and Yaoye Hall, they are also in a posture of vigilance at all times.

Seeing Wu Ye get up, he also took steps, wanting to follow behind Wu Ye.

"You don't need to follow me. Go down and have a good rest for a few days."

Sensing the other party's intentions, Wu Ye spoke to stop him, and after finishing speaking, he led Bei Shuofeng towards the door of the study.

Nan Xiaohuan was startled, seeing that Wu Ye was about to leave, he hurriedly said, "My lord!"

Wu Ye turned around and raised his eyebrows.

"Your subordinate will not be here for a few days, so how many secret guards should be called in to serve him personally?"

Protector Nan leads the hundreds of hidden guards directly under Mu Hanzhong, and he is the personal guard on weekdays.

Wu Ye thought for a while before giving the answer: "No need. Other than you, other people are not used to it."

Mu Hanzhong doesn't like being touched by strangers, and Wu Ye just happens to have the same habit.This body has already gotten used to Nan Xiaohuan, if he changed suddenly, even though it was only three days, it would be better to be alone.

"Then... this subordinate knows."

Wu Ye smiled faintly at him, knowing that the other party understood what he meant, and went out with Bei Shuofeng.

Following Shuofeng through the corridors, Wu Ye sorted out He Yanqin's information in his mind.

He Yanqin was single-handedly promoted by Mu Yunxiao, the palace lord of the previous generation, and he is loyal to Mu Yunxiao.When Mu Yunxiao stepped down from the position of palace lord, he specially ordered him to help Mu Hanzhong deal with the affairs of the palace.However, for unknown reasons, He Yanqin has always been deeply dissatisfied with Mu Hanzhong.These dissatisfaction manifested in various aspects, as time passed, it became clear to the whole palace that the Hall Master of the Bei Hall and the Palace Master were in harmony.But He Yanqin has never made any mistakes in the position of hall master, and because of Mu Yunxiao's face, no matter how much he hates that person, Mu Hanzhong can't take action against him.

For some reason this time, He Yanqin, who had always acted cautiously, suddenly started to act secretly.Wu Ye was full of doubts about his sudden action, but the most urgent thing was the antidote to "remains".

Along the way, Wu Ye was full of thoughts, and when he came back to his senses, Shuofeng had brought him to the entrance of the dungeon.

The entrance to the dungeon was heavily guarded, and the guards saluted respectfully when they saw the two.Bei Shuofeng didn't even look at it, he walked straight in, and a guard trotting beside him followed him.

The dungeon was cleaned very cleanly. The stone passages were not considered spacious. The walls on both sides were extremely smooth, vaguely reflecting figures.A few rays of sunlight come in from the small window at the highest part of the wall and reflect on the Shibi Mountain. It is obviously summer sunshine, but there is no trace of heat.After a turn, the path finally came to an end.

Looking around, the thick iron fences separate the space into individual cells, extending to the end in rows.In the darkness where the sun can't reach, there was a low coughing sound.

Shuo Feng walked inside, and after ordering the jailer to open the cell door, he stood at the cell door and followed Wu Ye after he entered.

He saw He Yanqin at a glance.

The dignified master who was always in high spirits in his memory was chained to the torture rack in the center of the cell, dying at the moment.The best brocade clothes were shattered into pieces, the dried blood stuck to his naked body, and the bloody hair hung down messily, covering his face.

Hearing the footsteps of the two, the coughing person stopped, slowly raised his head, and looked at Wu Ye who was walking in the front: "You are finally here... Mu Hanzhong."
