The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Yingzhou City is located at the edge of the four states in the south of the Yangtze River.

When Cao Yang arrived with everyone from the Mu family army, Mu Rong had been sleeping in an inconspicuous house in the west of the city for a whole day.

Mu Lu was anxious, but Mu Rong did not allow him to go out to seek medical treatment.

He could only wait eagerly for the military doctor to appear.

He felt miserable... Others envied Yi Changshi and Vice General Ai, thinking that they could serve them closely and gain the Marquis's trust.

But who could have known that Mr. Hou was stubborn and tough and not easy to serve at all.

Just like now, when I came out of Yuzhou, I vomited two more mouthfuls of blood.

Not willing to stop to recuperate, he rushed all the way to Yingzhou City. Along the way, he didn't know how worried he was.

I'm afraid something will happen to Mr. Hou!

Therefore, when Cao Yang showed up with the military doctor and a group of brothers, the little guard was almost crying.

The military doctor checked Mu Rong's pulse and said: "Master Hou has a good foundation. Although he has suffered some losses, he will be able to recover if he takes good care of himself for a while."

Mu Lu looked at him eagerly: "Then, do you think... is the Marquis someone you can support?"

Military doctor: "..."

Mu Lu came over and asked in a low voice: "Do you have any needles there? If he doesn't listen to you, put the golden needle into the acupuncture point to make him obedient and take good care of himself!"

The military doctor glanced at him: "You are very brave, which is rare among the Mu family's army."

Mu Lu was so panicked that he quickly covered his mouth: "Shh! Don't let it slip."

The matter of the Mu family army is a top secret.

The Mu family army is the Weiyuan Marquis Guards specially gifted by the late emperor.

During the reign of the late emperor, there were many riots and rebellions in the Zhou Dynasty. The old Marquis Weiyuan saved the late emperor from fire and water many times. In order to show his trust, the late emperor ordered Weiyuan Marquis Mansion to secretly cultivate the Mu family's army and then disperse them to various places. In the army.

This arrangement allows for flexible deployment to respond to emergencies, and also allows for monitoring military forces to prevent unscrupulous people from plotting.

The affairs of the Mu Family Army are top secret, only Weiyuan Hou and the current emperor know about it, and the list is in the hands of Weiyuan Hou alone.

In the previous life, Wu Tianqi tried every means to get Mu Rong to hand over the list.

As a result, Mu Rong withstood all kinds of torture, while Xu Rongrong burned down the study, leaving Wu Tianqi completely hopeless.

On this trip south, the guards led by Mu Rong appeared to be ordinary military guards, but in fact, all of them were masters of the Mu family army.

However, this matter cannot be known to others.

Especially Cao Yang, who was born in the East Palace.

The military doctor's mouth was firmly pressed by Mu Lu. He pulled and pulled a few times before he rescued himself from Mu Lu's clutches: "Don't worry, that adult went into the study to read the files as soon as he arrived."

"And..." the military doctor prolonged his tone, "that Mr. Cao is a wonderful man. He didn't even ask about things he shouldn't have asked! We set out from Xianzhou early yesterday morning. Along the way, he only read the files. , neither asked why the Marquis changed his mind, nor why the Marquis disappeared."

"You should be most careful with people like this." Mu Lu said secretly.

While the two were talking.Mu Rong was already awake. He stood up and meditated on the bed for a while.

Thinking about what happened last night still made his heart ache slightly.

The internal injuries and consumption of internal energy would only make him tired at most.

What really hit him was Xu Rongrong's retreat in deep sleep.

After returning from rebirth, he tried every means to get close to her, show his kindness to her, and make up for the harm caused by his previous life.

He hoped that one day, he could tell her the truth openly.

But her flinching last night brought him back to where he started.

After meditating, he held his chest to relax for a moment, then put on his clothes and got out of bed and walked outside: "Ask Cao Yang to come and see me."

Mu Lu was whispering to the military doctor and was shocked when he heard this.

He turned around and saw his Lord Marquis looking calm, so he advised him: "It's getting late. Do you want Lord Marquis to summon him again tomorrow?"

Mu Rong looked at the night outside the door and said solemnly: "It doesn't matter."

The matter here must be resolved as soon as possible.

Cao Yang came soon, holding a stack of files in his hand.

"Thank you for your hard work." Mu Rong saw the tired look on his face.

"They are all on errands for His Highness the Crown Prince." Cao Yang's voice was cold, just like the cold temperament exuding from his whole body.

He placed the files in front of Mu Rong one by one.

Mu Rong asked him directly: "Do you have any clues?"

"The Marquis ordered us to rush to Yingzhou and hide in this dilapidated courtyard. Didn't he know that I had a clue and came to get him personally?"

Although Cao Yang was only the Young Master of the East Palace and his official rank was not high, he believed in his ability, so even when he was facing the famous Weiyuan Hou, he still did not give in at all.

Mu Rong's eyes were deep and he stared at the man in front of him.

After a moment, he smiled softly: "In that case, where should we go to get people?"

"Of the six deceased, one fell from a horse and died, one drowned on the way home, two also fell off a cliff on the way home, one died suddenly in a stable, and a Yingzhou Cao guard died on the way home from duty. .Didn’t the Marquis discover the connection?"

When Cao Yang spoke, he raised his head slightly with a hint of arrogance.

Mu Rong laughed when he heard this and said, "Master Cao, are you taking a test on me?"

"The subordinate dare not."

Mu Rong stood up and walked slowly in front of him:

"Three of these six people were involved in accidents on their way back to the city from Yingzhou. Yingzhou is remote, and there must be carriages going back and forth. What they are doing is secret, and they will not involve too many people. I’m riding back and forth alone.”

"Yingzhou Caowei's home is an hour's walk from the official office. He must have driven a horse or a carriage to and from there."

"Of the other two, one fell from his horse and the other died suddenly in the stable. Based on this, the deaths of these six people must be related to the horses."

After Mu Rong finished speaking, he looked at Cao Yang with a smile: "Are I right?"

Cao Yang put away his high chin. He came to the conclusion after analyzing the files for several days.

Why did the Marquis actually... He lowered his head: "The Marquis is wise."

Upon seeing this, Mu Rong knew that this man's arrogance had subsided, so he stopped and said, "After the death of Cao Wei, is there any record of the whereabouts of the mount?"

Cao Yang shook his head: "There is no record yet, but the official discovered something interesting."

"Oh?" Mu Rong raised his eyebrows.

"There is a stable boy in Yingzhou who is the best at handling horses. I have just sent someone to bring that stable boy for questioning."

After Cao Yang finished speaking, he said with a hint of hesitation: "Because the Marquis has not woken up just now, my subordinates were afraid of a long night and many dreams, so they decided to go and get the person privately."

Mu Rong stood in front of Cao Yang. He was half a head taller than the other person. At this time, he was looking down at the man in front of him, which made Cao Yang feel embarrassed.

After a long time, Mu Rong said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter, things have priorities. You have done a good job with this arrangement."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone came to report from outside:

"Reporting to Lord Marquis and Master Cao! The stable boy...is missing!"
