old friends return

Liu Qingyan pretended not to hear what he said, and really didn't want to waste time with him on these matters, so she went to the front hall for dinner with Tong Bao in her arms.

Seeing that he was really annoyed, Cheng Muzhi stopped teasing him, and turned serious, "Su Wenquan came just now?"

"Yeah." Liu Qingyan picked up a piece of cloud cake with chopsticks, "Let me go to the palace tonight. I'm not in a hurry. I'll go with you to see Master first in the afternoon."

Cheng Muzhi moved up to him and cut off the Yunpian Cake he was carrying, chewing and saying, "Did your master know us a long time ago? Otherwise, he wouldn't have met us by such a coincidence three years ago."

Suddenly he seemed to remember something, "You said earlier that the Taoist Gu was the one who found it, and he was also the one?"

"En." Liu Qingyan nodded, "When I asked Yuan Bao to find him a few days ago, he didn't seem to be in Shengjing."

"A few days ago?" Cheng Muzhi took a sip of porridge, "I heard that there was a man in Shengjing who was very accurate in fortune telling, but he never told people easily. Is it him? I went to look for it three days ago. It's not there either."

"Oh..." Liu Qingyan stopped his chopsticks, so he went to see his master three days ago?

"I should be back today. I'm still a little surprised. He rarely leaves Shengjing, but this time he left so suddenly."

"There should be something to do." Cheng Muzhi answered.

Liu Qingyan asked him: "You didn't return all night yesterday, Gao Zhan and the others are not worried about you?"

Cheng Muzhi: "It's okay, they know where I am, and I have nowhere to go except you."

After they finished their breakfast, they changed their clothes and went to Xiao Changfeng's place.

The door creaked open, and Xiao Changfeng went to open the door for them himself, as if he expected the two of them to come, and he even tidied himself up a bit.

When Cheng Muzhi entered the door and looked at him again, he always felt somewhat familiar, but he didn't know where he had seen him.

"Come in." Xiao Changfeng led them into the house, "Qingyan, the mother Gu you want." He took out a small box from his sleeve, "Have someone send it to the ghost, it's important to save people."

"Master?" Liu Qingyan was surprised, he looked at the box in his hand, "You went out a few days ago to find this? But this Mother Gu...isn't it only found in the Western Regions..."

"I knew it before, so before you came back from Cangzhou, I went to the Western Regions first. This Gu is too powerful. If it is a little later, it will be too late. By then, the ghost hand will have no way to recover."

Before Liu Qingyan could speak, Cheng Muzhi bowed deeply to Xiao Changfeng, "On behalf of the people of Cangzhou, thank you."

Liu Qingyan also said: "Thank you, Master."

Xiao Changfeng glared at him, "Don't thank me, you just thank me for letting me worry less."

Liu Qingyan touched her nose helplessly, and turned her head a little guilty.

Then he said to Cheng Muzhi: "Don't worship me." Xiao Changfeng waved his hand to signal him not to be rigid about these things, "You prince, at least you have lived up to your mother's expectations."

"Mother...?" Cheng Muzhi murmured in a low voice, with an expression of ecstasy on his face, "You know my mother? Why do you..."

"I will tell you about this matter slowly, so you don't have to worry." Xiao Changfeng poured a cup of tea for each of them, and said to Cheng Muzhi, "Your mother and I are childhood sweethearts."

"If it wasn't for the marriage decree back then, I might have been with your mother. If that's the case, you don't know where you are." Xiao Changfeng's words seemed to be joking and sincere, and Cheng Muzhi suddenly heard I froze there.

While holding the teacup, his thoughts began to drift away. No wonder he felt that the person in front of him looked familiar. He should have seen it when he was young.

Mother also seems to mention it occasionally.

"You are... Xiao Changfeng, the new champion of that year?" Cheng Muzhi suddenly remembered, and when he looked at the person in front of him, his face could vaguely match, but it was really a different scene.

"Yes." Xiao Changfeng smiled, this smile is very indifferent, after all, many years have passed, but no one knows how much unwillingness, vicissitudes, and what kind of share was contained in such an indifferent smile, buried deep in the bottom of my heart affection.

Cheng Muzhi looked at him with mixed emotions in his heart.

It's not that he has never heard of this new top scholar. He has always been a mythical existence in Taixue. Several senior gentlemen in Taixue are full of praise when they mention him, saying that he has the talent for governing the country. Can □□, martial arts can establish a country.

To say more would be embarrassing, no one knew why he insisted on resigning, and no one knew where he went, but now Cheng Muzhi knew.

It turns out that my mother has always been worried about herself, so did she ask someone to take care of him?

"I know you have been looking into your mother's affairs back then, but many people involved in this matter have been silenced by the Yan family, so don't expect too much."

"But..." Cheng Muzhi clenched his fists unwillingly, he didn't want his mother to be wronged like this for the rest of his life.

At this time, Liu Qingyan who had been silent by the side stood up, "Master, I'm going to the palace tonight, do you still have the incense and medicine?"

Xiao Changfeng: "The ingredients are all in the backyard. There are no ready-made medicines. I won't be here during this time. You can go to the back and make some yourself."

"Okay." Liu Qingyan responded, "Mu Zhi, talk to Master for a while. I'll go to the back first."

Cheng Muzhi: "Yes."

After Liu Qingyan left, Xiao Changfeng continued: "Don't be too anxious about Chen Yuan, after all, not only your mother, but also Liu's affairs require you to come, so," Xiao Changfeng pointed at the table, "That position You have to get it, and only at the top can you truly have the absolute right to speak."

"It's natural." Cheng Muzhi said: "Chen Yuan can be released again, but before that, I want to take revenge first."

There was a faint anger in Cheng Muzhi's eyes, "Everyone involved in this matter will die a happy death."

"This is your own business," Xiao Changfeng smiled. "Actually, your mother is too worried. Why do you need me to take care of you? If you have a clear statement, why do you worry about your future?"

Speaking of this, Cheng Muzhi's pupils shrank suddenly, and he couldn't help feeling a pain in his heart, "You, do you know what Ah Yan did?"

Xiao Changfeng took a sip of tea and said, "Don't you understand everything? Otherwise, you wouldn't ask such a question. But I'm also surprised that he would tell you."

"I also found out by accident not long ago. Ah Yan didn't believe me at all. He said that your life was hard but he still wanted to help you. I was afraid that you would be wronged."

Cheng Muzhi suddenly had a bad feeling when he saw Xiao Changfeng's eyes.

"If it wasn't for your mother's sake, I would have greeted you with my fist when you first came in."
