Herb Family [Rebirth]

After Xiao Zuo learned that Xiao Qi had escaped, he angrily dealt with all the guards in the other courtyard.

"A pile of trash! You can't keep it alone, what's the use of keeping you?!" Xiao Zuo went crazy, no one could stop him, and no subordinate dared to stop him.

After Xiao Zuo had a fit, he finally calmed down. He called all the counselors over, and said: "Xiao Qi has run away, I don't want to wait any longer, just send troops."

His subordinates had known Xiao Zuo's temperament for a long time, and they tried their best to persuade him before, so that the other party gave in a little bit, don't directly send troops to the north, after all, although they are strong and powerful, they can't withstand long-term consumption.

It happened that the spies found out that Xiao Qi had come to Tongcheng, so they came up with an idea to ask Xiao Zuo to tie Xiao Qi here, so that they could negotiate with Xiao Yu, and it might be possible to force him to abdicate.

Because according to the spies they placed in the palace, Xiao Qi held an extraordinary position in Xiao Yu's heart.

Everything was going well at first, but Xiao Zuo insisted on poisoning Xiao Qi to make Xiao Qi suffer, so as to disturb Xiao Yu's mind.

After discussing it with everyone, they felt that it was feasible. In addition, Xiao Zuo would go crazy from time to time. If he was not allowed to vent, it would be his subordinates who would suffer.

So everyone nodded in unanimous agreement, let Xiao Qi suffer.

As for who should come forward to implement it, everyone tacitly gave the opportunity to the Mu family.

Speaking of which, the counselors and confidants around Xiao Zuo didn't think highly of the Mu family.

Furthermore, the fact that the Mu family came here halfway made people feel uneasy. This mission can not only throw out the hot-handed mountain yu, but also test the loyalty of the Mu family.

It's still killing two birds with one stone.

So the Mu family took over the task.

The current Patriarch of the Mu family was supposed to carry out the task, but Mu Jizong patted his chest and assured that he could handle this matter well.

As the son of the head of the family, Mu Jizong's future position should be his. The head of the family also wanted to exercise Mu Jizong, so he nodded in agreement.

In addition, the Patriarch also wants Mu Jizong to show up more in front of the prince. If Mu Jizong can get things done this time, the Mu family will have a better position in front of the prince.

The head of the Mu family knew that because of Mu Xuanji's relationship, some people around the prince did not believe them.

They could only try their best to show their loyalty. They could give up even Mu Xuanji's tribe back then, so what could hinder them?No!

The head of the Mu family vowed to bring the Mu family back to the most glorious time several generations ago.

But I didn't expect that even such a small task would be messed up by the Mu family.

The Mu family not only screwed up, but also paid a son-in-law to go in, not to mention how heartbroken the head of the Mu family is.

Xiao Zuo didn't care about the death of his son, and the Mu family was almost disgusted by him when he was dismissed as incompetent.

The Mu family was hit hard by this and fell silent.

He just wanted to wait for Xiao Zuo to ascend the throne, and then find a way to regain the trust of the prince.

******

An Yi brought Xiao Qi and Mu Qi back to Tongcheng.

When Xiao Qi returned to Tongcheng, he was sent to King Yu's courtyard.

It wasn't until he was sent into Xiao Yu's room that Xiao Qi realized that Xiao Yu had actually come.

He stood there in a daze and stared at Xiao Yu, for a moment he couldn't believe that Xiao Yu really came.

After Xiao Yu saw him, he didn't care about Sanqi 21, and stretched out his hand to embrace him in his arms.

The torment he's had these days is almost driving him crazy.

He hugged Xiao Qi tightly, and murmured: "Fortunately, you are fine...Fortunately, you are fine..."

Xiao Qi was still in a daze, and after a while, he slowly stretched out his hands to return to Xiao Yu.

He leaned against the other's warm chest, and finally relaxed now.

In fact, ever since he was taken away by Xiao Zuo's people, Xiao Qi had secretly prepared himself that he would never come back.

He has already made up his mind, if Xiao Zuo really wants to use him to threaten Xiao Yu, even if he dies, he will not let Xiao Yu fall into a dilemma.

Fortunately, God was merciful, and the worst he had feared and imagined did not happen.

The two hugged each other quietly for a while, Xiao Yu let go of Xiao Qi after he calmed down.

But after letting go of Xiao Qi, he still held the other's hand, he led Xiao Qi to the table and sat down.

Xiao Qi let him hold his hand, and couldn't help but jump up in his heart.

He could feel that Xiao Yu's attitude seemed to have changed.

In the past, Xiao Yu avoided talking about the relationship between the two of them, but now he does not hesitate to express his distress and reluctance for him. There is such a big difference between before and after, that it is impossible for him not to notice it.

Xiao Yu didn't seem to have any intention of covering it up anymore, and blatantly showed his love and affection for Xiao Qi. In the past, it could be regarded as the elders' care for the younger generation, but now there is a little more intimacy.

While enjoying it, Xiao Qi wondered in his heart, why did Xiao Yu figure it out?

In the end Xiao Qi blamed himself for being kidnapped this time.

Xiao Qi's guess was right, Xiao Yu was really frightened by this accident.

If Xiao Qi couldn't come back again, Xiao Yuguang couldn't bear it in his imagination. He didn't have the despair of being on the verge of losing before, and he still couldn't really feel how deep his feelings for Xiao Qi were.

This experience made him realize his feelings.

It's ridiculous that he used to think that he could suppress and watch Xiao Qi get married and have children, and stay far away from him for the rest of his life.

It turned out that before things happened, everything was just self-deception.

He thanked God for giving him a chance to make up for it. If Xiao Qi never came back, he would definitely regret it for life. ...

Although Xiao Qi and Xiao Yu didn't say it clearly, the relationship between them heated up quickly.

And when the two were alone, the atmosphere was ambiguous and warm, and there was more and more affection in their eyes that couldn't be concealed.

It's just that Xiao Yu has never made any gestures of getting close to Xiao Qi.

Firstly, there is Xiao Zuo watching covetously outside, and secondly, Xiao Yu is still making arrangements. Before he makes arrangements, he doesn't want too many people to see his feelings for Xiao Qi.

It's just that they hadn't lived in peace for a few days before they heard that King Zuo had rebelled.

King Zuo's army was strong, and he came all the way from Miaojiang to the capital.

And Tongcheng is located in the necessary place from Miaojiang to the capital, and was soon affected by the flames of war.

When Xiao Zuo's army came towards Tongcheng, Xiao Yu's men planned to escort Xiao Yu and Xiao Qi out of the city.

It's just that before they had time to leave, Xiao Zuo had already sent people to guard the gates of Tongcheng, killing anyone who dared to leave the city without authorization.

Now Xiao Yu and the others were trapped in Tongcheng.

Xiao Zuo's army was divided into three groups, one of which was led by Xiao Zuo himself to Tongcheng.

He wanted to catch Xiao Qi, that bastard himself.

Then he wanted to kill Xiao Qi in front of Xiao Yu, so as to vent his hatred.

It is only natural for fathers to pay their sons' debts. Xiao Yu's father dared to rob him of his throne, so naturally Xiao Yu had to pay it back.

Xiao Zuo didn't care about his age, he didn't live much longer, and he didn't care about what would happen to the court after death, he just cared about his own revenge.

But speaking of it, Xiao Zuo just looks old, but his actual age is less than fifty.

The age difference between him and Xiao Yu's father is a bit big, so he is only more than ten years older than Xiao Yu. At that time, he lost to Xiao Yu's father because he was too young.

It's just that after so many years of tempering and lurking, he has long been different from what he was back then.

This time, he will definitely take back what belongs to him. ...

The day Xiao Zuo's army arrived in Tongcheng, Xiao Qi and Xiao Yu had already retreated to the Bai family together with King Yu.

After Mu Qi came back safely, Bai Heng, who stayed in Yu Wang's other courtyard together, naturally also knew about it.

It's just that before the two of them had time to express their feelings, they heard that King Zuo had rebelled.

The two immediately thought of the safety of Xiao Yu and Xiao Qi.

"Let Your Majesty and Your Highness come to my house." Bai Heng said.

Mu Qi thought for a while, and it seemed that only the Bai family was relatively safe.

Therefore, the two proposed to Xiao Yu, and after some discussion, they accepted Bai Heng's opinion.

Finally, Xiao Yu took Xiao Qi and King Yu, and the group quietly arrived at Bai's house.

After arriving at Bai's house, Bai Heng arranged for Xiao Yu, then rushed to the old man's yard, and told the old man the identities of Xiao Yu and the others, so that the old man had a clear idea.

The old man had also seen big storms, so he didn't show any abnormality, instead he asked Bai Heng to take him to see His Majesty.

Bai Heng thought that the old man just wanted to pay his respects to His Majesty, but after seeing His Majesty, the old man said, "Your Majesty, although the Bai family is just a merchant, it is not without background. Please send someone to follow you." Grassmen come."

Xiao Yu was a little puzzled when he heard this, but An Yi still let An Yi follow him.

Not long after An Yi came back, he leaned in front of His Majesty and reported softly: "The Bai family is not simple, there is a secret road leading directly to the outside of the city."

Even Bai Heng didn't know about this secret path.

The old man thought that he would tell Bai Heng this secret before he died, but he didn't think it would come in handy now.

After all, the Bai family is a big family that has gone through several dynasties, and it is already the tenth generation in Bai Heng's hands. After hundreds of years, how could they not have the ability to protect themselves.

Especially when the previous generations were changing dynasties and there were wars everywhere, it was not an easy task for the Bai family to keep the whole family alive.

Haven't seen other emerging families, but disappeared in the chaos of war, have you never heard of them again?

Therefore, under the arrangement of the old man, Xiao Yu and his party quietly left the city on the day Xiao Zuo entered the city.

It's just that they can't take it lightly when they leave the city, because they are not far from Tongcheng, and Xiao Yu will be truly safe after returning to the capital.

On the other side, after Xiao Zuo led the army into Tongcheng, he went straight to the courtyard where Xiao Qi lived. Even King Yu's residence was found out, and then turned upside down.

In the end, of course, nothing was found.

At this time, the Lu family sent someone to see King Zuo, saying that they had something important to report.

King Zuo was lazy to deal with the local rich and noble families, so he casually pointed out a confidant to meet the Lu family.

The person from the Lu family is Mr. Lu.

What the old man came forward to say was nothing else, but the relationship between Bai Zhongxuan and King Yu.

When Xiao Zuo's confidant heard this, he hurried to report to Xiao Zuo, and deduced that Yu Wang and others might be hiding in Bai's house.

Xiao Zuo immediately sent someone to Bai's house to arrest him.
