[System] Former political enemies are all guilty of peach blossoms

Although Mu Yunmen had predicted the result, in fact, when King Wu said so easily the 9 taels of silver tax, the man was still blinded by the arrogance of that local tyrant.

"Okay, then I will come to the palace to accept 9 taels of silver in three days, and I will report to the emperor when I return to Beijing. Please prepare for it, His Royal Highness King Wu."

"Your Majesty Mu heard that you have never been to the state of Wu. Please pay a visit. I believe that the people of this king will treat you well."

The white-bearded old man smiled kindly, and stroked his beard leisurely.

"In this way, I will not bother Your Highness anymore."

Mu Yunmen cupped his hands and lowered his eyes to bid farewell to King Wu, and then left the hall under the leadership of his servants.

As soon as the hem of the man in the jade shirt disappeared behind the door, Qi Bai's disguised peaceful face immediately disappeared like a dream.The corners of his eyes showed sternness, and he sat down and sipped tea to calm down his anger.

Mu Yunmen?Is it the young man who treats Qi Ye who is full of anger like a puppy?

Qi Bai snorted coldly, he was quite capable.

Straight to the point, he moved out the emperor's edict to make himself bow down to the Ninth Five-Year Lord without giving him any face.Even if you dormant as a show, cultivating strength is what the old man has been doing all his life.

But at that moment, Ma Wei was almost blown away by Mu Yunmen's note.

Good boy, do you really think that this king has nothing to do with you?Just use your blood to sacrifice the first lamb to Qi Li, the hairy kid who wants to suck blood and eat meat on his body.

Qi Bai drank the hot tea in one gulp, picked up a pen and wrote something.

When Mu Yunmen returned to the inn, several Habayashi military masters were eagerly discussing whether they should go wandering in Wu Guohua Street at night.

I heard that in Wu Guohua Street, there are hundreds of thousands of beauties who are all over the country.The only thing comparable in the world is probably the three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem.

The current emperor only favors the queen, and the three thousand beauties are all decorations.

But in this Wu Guohua Street, as long as gold and silver are swayed, there will always be a beauty waiting for her to fall into her arms voluntarily. In a sense, she is much more comfortable than the emperor.

Touring the flower street is only suitable for middle and upper class groups, especially those who are officials, rich and powerful, and girls are even more welcome.Seeing Mu Yunmen stepping into the inn, several military masters immediately pulled him into the discussion.

"Master Mu, let me tell you, do you want to go shopping in Flower Street tonight?"

The three elders asked in a low voice, but their eyes had blossomed, and they couldn't stop laughing.

"...No, I..."

Mu Yunmen looked at several military masters, from Yangcheng to the north, and then across the Longji Mountains to the south. They have been on business for more than half a year, and they must be getting bored.

He agreed to let a few men have fun, but he just let it go, he has never been unfaithful to his beloved wife Su Rumeng.

Even though heaven and man are separated forever, the missing will last forever.

"Why are you ashamed? Your wife has been going west for almost a year, Mr. Mu, you...didn't think about it during that time?"

A military master raised his eyebrows, he knew that the Mu family and his wife were deeply affectionate, but if that was the case, he could only admire Mu Yunmen's deep affection.

"No, not in the mood...I can't forget my wife."

Mu Yunmen couldn't help laughing, and shook his head bitterly. The three military masters looked at each other, and their eyes gradually showed pity.

In terms of age, Mu Yunmen is still a few years younger than them, and they also have a family, but fun is for fun, and the wife is for housekeeping. The men are separated, and Mu Daren in front of him, at a young age, is alive and well. You have to be the same as a monk who keeps the precepts.

Why bother?Not to mention his wife is dead.

"Lord Mu, he's not in the mood. Wouldn't it be happier for the military masters to have fun by themselves?"

Da Wu didn't know when, standing behind Muyunmen with a deep complexion, he was like the guardian gatekeeper of a thin man, and the sharp eyes with only one eye were constantly gushing out from the eye socket.

"...Needless to say, you still can't play Huajie with your status! Time is running out, brothers and sisters, let's go."

A military master didn't dare to look directly at Da Wu's persuasive eyes, so he could only mutter and curse secretly.

"..."

Mei Fu sneered in her heart, was she just having fun with the women in Huajie to relieve the pain of sexual intercourse?Sorry, but Mei Fu doesn't bother to do it.

I don't know why, if Mu Yunmen also goes, I can't help but feel angry when I imagine the scene of him intertwining with a woman, even if it's just an imagination.

"Master Mu, is everything going well?"

Da Wu and Mu Yunmen sat together, looking at the landscaping of the lotus patio in the inn, people coming and going, very lively.

Mu Yunmen guessed that Da Wu was probably anxious to go home, after all the Chinese New Year is coming, who wouldn't want to stay with their family?

"Well, as I guessed, if everything goes well in three days, I will return to Beijing with Wu's tribute car, and you can also return to Yi County for the festival."

The man smiled and nodded, but Da Wu's complexion was not clear, but he fell into deep thought.

"...You, are you married?"

Mu Yunmen was a little puzzled when he saw Dawu's solemn face. Could it be that the festival is more bleak because of the lonely family?His complexion is not very good.

"Well, we've been married, we've left, and there's only one disobedient kid to take care of at home."

Da Wu replied indifferently, the man nodded after hearing this, and looked outside the courtyard at the gradually darkening sky.

"Every father in the world has to work hard to set a good example for his children! Your child should miss you very much, so go back to your hometown to accompany him after this errand is over."

Mu Yunmen raised his plump lips with thin lip line, patted Mei Fu's strong shoulders, and smiled softly.

Mei Fu's eyes seemed to be bewitched by this incomparably innocent smile, unable to leave for a long time.

"It's nothing. He recently made a new partner, so he's going to happily forget about his father."

Mei Fu couldn't help laughing when she thought of Mei Qinghe's jumping up and down every time he went to Mu Mansion to find Mu Haoran.How did Mu Yunmen in front of him know that he was talking about his soft and cute little Haoran?

Three days later, Mu Yunmen and his party had put on new clothes, and everyone was radiant. It was obvious that they had been away on business for half a year, and they couldn't wait to go home.

They were waiting at the gate of the palace together with King Wu's tribute chariot. As long as it ends smoothly, there should be a box connected with a box full of silver to be sent out and loaded onto the carriage.

In the mansion, Mu Yunmen stood side by side with King Wu and Prime Minister Wu Guoguo, looking at King Wu's tent, opening the box with the account book and counting it.

Guoxiang Wu looked a few years younger than Qi Bai, both of them looked old, Qi Bai was very calm, but Guoxiang didn't know if it was because of the cold weather, he kept sweating and pressed his forehead with a silk handkerchief.

Gold and silver, 9 taels, about one hundred boxes, occupying half of the room, the weight of the money is no exaggeration, it can drown and suffocate a seven-foot man.

Many people would never earn such a huge amount of money in their entire lives, but Qi Bai had already raised the money in just three days, and all his money was placed in front of Mu Yunmen.

"After counting, the total amount of silver is 9 taels. Please confirm, Mr. Mu."

After counting the tents, he said to Mu Yunmen, the man nodded and turned his gaze to King Wu.

"So, let the drivers of the tribute cart outside come in to load the goods."

"Master Mu sent my king's loyalty to the emperor before his eyes. There is also a piece of advice. Recently, some water thieves stopped and hijacked the mountain road from Yijun. The amount of money for this trip is huge, so I suggest you take the spacious official road. In this way, the hundreds of guards in Gongche will have more space to protect Baiyin."

Qi Bai said leisurely, without seeing any emotion, Mu Yunmen nodded after hearing it, and it was more reasonable after thinking about it.

Because Wu is the last country to be sealed off, they will follow the tribute car back to Beijing. The road is mighty. Although it is easy to become a big target, there are a hundred guards guarding it. Even water thieves will not dare to hijack it rashly. .

It took two hours for one hundred boxes of silver to crash into the carriage, ten boxes per cart, ten vehicles in total, accompanied by a hundred Wu Guo guards.

The cold light of the iron halberd flickered, and the armor of the soldiers clashed and clattered, just like an expeditionary army winding its way from the king's palace of Wu to the king's city.

It was almost noon, and the official road was covered with snow, but the weather was fine. Apart from being a bit cold, there was no violent snowstorm that disturbed the sight.Mu Yunmen still boarded his carriage, but this time, Da Wu insisted on letting himself drive for Mu Yunmen.

Lao Guo was a little helpless, he gave up his position, and gave this strange man who had a disfigured appearance and a broken voice, but exuded a deterrent spirit.

Taking the usual official road and bypassing the mountainous area will be faster than before.They had already left Lian County and walked towards Yi County in an arc. The journey was very quiet, except for the occasional caravan that passed by each other, there were no other groups of peers.

Out of ten cars, they arranged two cars in parallel. Although the queue was a little longer, it was at a distance that could be seen clearly at a glance, and the situation was acceptable.

Just when they reached the crossing of a big river, there was a spacious bridge not far away. Just when the guard rode ahead, he stopped the horse's hooves.

"The bridge... is broken..."

The guard stared blankly at the broad river ahead, at a loss for what to do for a while.

The river flowing through this bridge is one of the important waterways for merchant ships in the state of Wu. The water temperature is acceptable, and it will not freeze in winter. It is a very good transportation river.

He didn't quite understand why the bridge was broken and no people went to report to Lian County?Maybe something happened suddenly, a ship that didn't meet the height of the bridge deck accidentally broke the bridge, right?

"Master Mu, the bridge is broken, so we have to find another way."

The guard at the front kicked his horse's hooves and ran to Mu Yunmen's carriage in the middle of the line to report.

"The shortest way is to go through the mountains and go back to the border between the mountains and Yi County. Although we can try the waterway, if the water bandits rob the ship, we can't use our hands."

Another tribute car guard added.

Mu Yunmen's heart slowly turned cold, this is too bad luck, the bridge is broken?

It was as if God did not allow me to take 9 taels of silver to go out of the country of Wu... I might encounter water thieves if I walked the mountain road, but the hundred guards had sufficient experience in ground combat.

The man's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt like a mosquito, unaware that he had fallen into the trap of a spider's web, ready to die.

Knowing that it is a road full of risks, do you still want to go?But if you walk by land or water, you may encounter water thieves.

"Lord Mu, let's go up the mountain."

Just when the man's brain was hurting, Da Wu, who was driving ahead, turned around and said firmly to him.
