Sick Man Turns Out to be a General

4Xu Yanlin stood to the left of Mu Chen and watched as Mu Chen reached out to stroke the white feathers on Mo Yu's head.     2

    

Mu Chen turned a deaf ear to his words. With a light raise of his hand, Mo Yu spread his wings and took off, circling above Mu Chen's head. From time to time, he would let out a long cry.    

    

Mo Yu's feathers were very beautiful. There was a brown luster in the black, and the feathers on her wings were neat and smooth. When she flapped her wings, there was a hint of ferocity in them.    

    

It circled a few times in the air, then let out a cry and stood at the corner of the room. Mu Chen clapped his hands, walked to the side, and sat down on a stone chair, calmly speaking, "I don't want him to do anything unnecessary."    

    

So what if he was concerned, if Nan Jiyun knew about the current condition of Cold Wind, he could not guarantee that fellow's ability to do anything.    

    

"What do you mean?" As Xu Yanlin spoke, his gaze looked towards the direction of the study room. He had seen that flash of disappointment in Nan Jiyun's eyes, and it was clear to him that that person might have a heart of stone towards others, but towards the cold wind, he was willing to dig out his heart and dig out his lungs. And Mu Chen, even though he knew this, he did not tell him the news, which puzzled him.    

    

Da Ji gave them some tea water and fruits as well as tea that was just brewed. The tea was exuding a dense mist as Mu Chen raised his cup and looked at the tea leaves that were floating in the hot water.    

    

When he thought about the news that Wei Zuo had sent back, Mu Chen narrowed his eyes in exhaustion. When he opened them again, they were filled with coldness and decisiveness, he took the chance to drink his tea, picked up a fruit from his plate and threw it into the air. Mo Yu who was originally standing at the corner of the room immediately dove down and took the fruit away.    

    

Xu Yanlin was completely shaken by this scene. He turned his head and glanced at Mu Chen, thinking, what is Mu Shisi raising? He had never heard of White-shouldered Eagle liking to eat fruits.    

    

He picked up his teacup and drank some tea to calm his nerves. Then he asked, "Do we need to go up to the Emperor?"    

    

Soong Wei colluding with the enemy and betraying the country was a huge matter, and even if he wanted to hide it, he could not hide it from the emperor. Rather than waiting until it was in front of the emperor and he had to pursue his responsibilities, it would be better for them to report this matter to the emperor.    

    

glanced at Xu Yanlin, his lips curling into a cold smile, and then he placed the teacup on the table with a clanging sound. Xu Yanlin was shocked, he turned his head to look at Mu Chen and heard his sarcastic words, "Do you think that the cold wind will hide the matter and investigate it on its own?    

    

Xu Yanlin frowned. Indeed, there was no reason for the cold wind to hide everything, so …    

    

He was just about to speak when he heard the sound of a door opening behind him. He turned around, and saw Jin Yu supporting Nan Jiyun out of the study room, his gaze was cold, and when he looked at Mu Chen, it was with an indescribable hostility and fury.    

    

"Mu Shisi, to think that after being heartless to you for so many years, you actually did not care about his safety at all. Your conscience has been eaten by a dog?" Nan Jiyun clenched his teeth, and the look in his eyes became more unfriendly.    

    

Because of the incident with the cold wind, Nan Jiyun had a lot of enmity towards Mu Chen. He thought that after Mu Chen got married, the tit-for-tat relationship between the two would become a bit better, but he never thought that even if there was no conflict of interest between the two of them, it would still be wrong.    

    

He bent over and tried to laugh, but he didn't feel serious, so he tried hard not to.    

    

Mu Chen looked up and glanced at him, then picked up the tea cup to drink, seeing that he was not concerned about it, Nan Jiyun was so angry that his stomach hurt, and when he pushed Jin Yu to go up and beat him up, the wound which was not completely healed started to crack because of his actions, and it hurt so much that he felt that his whole body was in pain, and he staggered as he walked.    

    

Jin Yu quickly stepped forward to support him. She didn't know why Young Master Nan was so unhappy with the old master, nor did she dare open her mouth to persuade him.    

    

Seeing that, Xu Yanlin also said: "Jin Yu is right, you recuperate well first, leave the rest to us."    

    

"Can you rely on it?" Nan Jiyun raised his chin haughtily and looked at them with contempt.    

    

Xu Yanlin gritted his teeth in anger, he turned to Mu Chen and asked: "Can I beat him to death?"    

    

"Recuperate first." Mu Chen opened his mouth and said, "I already reported the news of your return to the capital to the emperor, so you don't need to worry about others finding out. It will take time to find someone, so don't be in too much of a hurry. "    

    

Mu Chen drank some more tea, then stood up calmly, "The report you guys handed over probably won't reach the emperor. As for who intercepted it, I'll send someone to investigate. "Don't get it too fast."    

    

Nan Jiyun was startled for a while, then realized what Mu Chen was saying. There were people in the imperial court who had cut off their memorials, which meant that there were many spies in the middle of the imperial court, and they might even know that he and the cold wind had entered the capital. If they were to be found out, they would secretly enter the imperial capital, and even hide in Mu Chen's home.    

    

What a good plan.    

    

Nan Jiyun sneered, but didn't give Mu Chen any more cold face. He reached out for Jin Yu to support him, threw down the words "it would be best if you can ensure that the cold wind comes back safely", and then returned to the east wing room.    

    

After Nan Jiyun left, Xu Yanlin held his stomach and laughed out loud, "He still has such a big opinion of you, even I have to suspect, are you messing with the cold wind? "Ah …    

    

His knees was fiercely stepped on, Xu Yanlin felt like he heard the sound of bones breaking. He laid on the stone table feeling that there was nothing he could do, that not only was Mu Shisi cruel and merciless, he also felt that it was a waste for him to care about his brother.    

    

Mu Chen did not pay any attention to him and extended a finger to snap a few times, causing Mo Yu to fly close to him and land on his arm. Seeing that he did not care about her, Xu Yanlin shouted as if he was immersed in his thoughts, "Sigh, the heavens are truly blind, how do I know such a cold-blooded and heartless person? "To be able to injure one's good friend and discard him, how heartless must he be to be able to do such a thing …"    

    

Mu Chen listened to Xu Yanlin's self-introduction with no expression on his face. He only told Da Ji to notify Zhao Wenrui and bring him back.    

    

"..."    

    

Because his actions were too extreme, Nan Jiyun's scab wounds started to reopen. After Shen Jingli found a doctor to treat him, he asked him to sleep on the bed.    

    

"I advise you to divorce Mu Shisi, that fellow is not a good person."    

    

Just as Shen Jingli was directing a servant to bring in a piece of Arhat Bed, he heard Nan Jiyun's voice coming from behind him. He turned around and thought to himself, it really wasn't his imagination, this Young Master Nan had a grudge with Mu Shisi.    

    

When the servant, who was moving the bed to the side, heard this, he really wanted to cover his ears. God, they didn't hear anything, they really didn't hear anything. With such a prayer in his heart, he was also very curious about Nan Jiyun's identity. Just who was it that dared to urge his wife to divorce the old master? He wasn't afraid that the old master would destroy his entire family.    

    

The servant placed the Arhat Bed under the window and left. Shen Jingli placed a few cushions on top of the bed and a few pillows, then sat down and poured a cup of water for himself before speaking: "What enmity do you have with Fourteen? You were so against him. "    

    

He was not stupid, and was not yet so blind that he could not see through Nan Jiyun's hostility towards him, nor could he understand the ridicule towards Mu Chen from outside his words. Didn't they say that he was a strategist from the Northwest Army camp? Logically, they should be Mu Chen's subordinates, why did they dislike Mu Chen? Inexplicably, four big words appeared in Shen Jingli's mind — Death in Love.    

    

Hearing that, Nan Jiyun knew that Shen Jingli did not take his words seriously, but it was not because he was virtuous and familiar with the four virtues, but because he trusted Mu Chen, and suddenly sighed in his heart, Mu Shisi really had a good life, and married a wife who understood him well.    

    

"You trust him that much?" Nan Jiyun did not give up and continued to ask.    

    

"He trusts me that much too." They trusted each other.    

    

Nan Jiyun went silent, he recalled the last words that the cold wind said to him, and felt that he could understand and comprehend this feeling of trust. When he thought about how much the cold wind trusted him, he actually felt at ease, and his heart started beating even faster.    

    

Shen Jingli saw him staring blankly at the roof, thinking that he was bored, so he said: "If you feel bored, you can ask Nian Hua to come in and play chess with you, or find some servants to play with you."    

    

"What about you?" Why wasn't he accompanying him?    

    

"I have to take a nap later." He was in the habit of taking a nap, and he would definitely get sleepy during his nap time.    

    

"Yes." Nan Jiyun casually replied as he reached out to caress the wound that he had bandaged up. No one knew what he was thinking, but he suddenly revealed a sense of weakness.    

    

Shen Jingli did not notice the change in him. He endured a yawn, took the cold tea and left the room, asking Jin Yu to take it down and change it to a pot of hot tea. Then, he asked Nanny Jin to choose two nimble and dependable people to serve him before she left the east wing.    

    

When they passed by the backyard, they met Mu Chen who was about to go out. The two of them looked at each other, nodded and brushed past each other.    

    

After passing through the circular archway, he turned back and looked at the empty courtyard. He sighed. Fourteen, he feared that it would be another few days before he would be able to return home.    

    

"Madam?" Seeing him in a daze, Jin Yu called out to him.    

    

Shen Jingli came back to reality and smiled to her: "If there's nothing, let's go back."    

    

Jin Yu looked at him, then looked at the road that Mu Chen had just walked on, and followed his footsteps.    

    

— —    

    

A manor on the outskirts of the city    

    

Behind him, a black figure knelt down on one knee, respectfully bowed his head, and reported his mission meticulously. "Reporting to Master, this subordinate has already found Soong Wei's whereabouts, but there are people monitoring his surroundings, so this subordinate cannot take action."    

    

Murderous intent flashed in the black shadow's eyes. Those two people, he would kill them with his hands sooner or later.    

    

Alright, you may leave." "As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a gust of wind blow past his body, and his figure disappeared in a flash. A man walked out from the screen, he was dressed in purple, his posture was straight like a pine, and he wore a trident with a purplish-gold crown on his head. His aura was both vigorous and sinister.    

    

The man embraced her from behind. The man's tall body covered her from head to toe, and she was so happy that her heart was thumping, and her cheeks were slightly red. She leaned into the man's embrace and said in a low voice: "Mistress, everything you asked me to do has been done."    

    

"Yes." The man responded as he teasingly bit her ear, and said gently, "Rou'er is so obedient."    

    

Her voice was soft and low, causing Zeng Rou'er's ears to burn, and when her skin touched the warmth passed to her by the man, her legs would tremble slightly, her body was so weak that she would not be able to move at all, she could only press herself against the man, and cry out, "Master!"    

    

When the man saw that she was moved, he secretly sneered, endured his disgust, kissed her face and coaxed: "Rou'er, I won't stay any longer today, you must remember what I've told you. As for Soong Wei, I'll take care of it myself."    

    

Zeng Rou'er was completely mesmerized by the man's words. Her mind was only filled with the feeling of him kissing her, and upon hearing his voice, she could only nod her head dumbly as she did not take his words to heart at all.    

    

When the man saw her like this, he sneered in his heart and said some good words to her before leaving.
