My years as a soldier

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, let alone the intricate Chang'an City.

In fact, the strange situation in Chang'an was revealed as early as midwinter, but unfortunately, Zhang Si had died at that time, so that Su Wang's mansion, an aristocratic mansion that was originally outside the center of imperial power, had a great impact on the people in the northeast of Chang'an. Abnormal, without the slightest perception, let alone defense.

That day when Li Muyun returned to the mansion from the Yanzhi shop in Xishi, it was noon, and the bright autumn sun was still warm, so he didn't go to Mrs. Zhao's residence, but went back to his own room first.But as soon as he opened the door, Li Muyun was dumbfounded.

His bed was kept spotless by his servants, but the person on the bed was gone, leaving only the smell of herbs still permeating the air.

"Where's Hu Jiuzhang?"

With a cold face, he spoke in a low voice to the boy outside the door, the sun was shining brightly outside, but Li Muyun's face was already howling like a sinister wind.

"I was called... asked the princess to come out..."

The boy was probably frightened by Li Muyun's reaction, his voice trembled.I don't know how strict Li Muyun's voice is in the palace on weekdays. He was born with a weak appearance, but none of the people under him dared to lie to him.

"Where did you go?"

The lower Li Muyun lowered his voice, the more frightened the servant became.

"Please, please go outside the residence..."

The servant bowed his waist, ready to be reprimanded by his master.But Li Muyun didn't even look at him, he went out and headed towards Princess Zhao's house.He didn't take the two boxes of rouge he bought just now, but put them on the small table at the entrance of the house.The wooden box was covered with crimson moiré silk, it didn't look like it was abandoned, but it was full of anger inside and out.

When Li Muyun found her, Princess Zhao was playing with birds in the house.She was in a good mood at the moment, after all, a mere Hu Jiuzhang couldn't affect her at all.After driving away a person, you can do whatever you want when you come back, just like breathing and eating.So when Li Muyun pushed the door and entered, she was startled and subconsciously glared at the door, but when she saw that Li Muyun was coming, she quickly changed her face and forced a slightly apologetic smile.

"It's Mu Yun... Why is it so urgent that you didn't even knock on the door?"

Seeing Mrs. Zhao put on this mask, in the past, Li Muyun would have made a false response to her, but now, he felt from the bottom of his heart that even a superficially non-emotional false response would be a big deal for this woman. It's not worth it.As long as Li Muyun thinks that his weakness and illness for more than ten years, and even his father's indifference and neglect and failure in his official career are all thanks to this woman, his heart cannot be calmed down.

If he had never regarded this person as his mother, perhaps he would only hate this person for being ruthless at this moment, but in the past, Li Muyun always took her as his mother and served her sincerely.Being betrayed by one's own mother - I'm afraid there is nothing more heartbreaking than this in the world.At that time, the love was deep, but the hatred at this time may not be as strong as it was then.Hate is powerless, no matter how you remember it, so what?Besides, Li Muyun is not a person who loves to hold grudges.What was simmering in his heart was nothing but worry and anger.

But now she actually took advantage of her absence to drive away Hu Jiuzhang - about Hu Jiuzhang, Li Muyun begged in front of Mrs. Zhao yesterday.How could he have imagined that Mrs. Zhao would just listen to what Zhang Si said in front of the servants of the mansion, and instead ignore the request of him, the prince of the palace?

When the matter developed to this point, Li Muyun couldn't even say a word.

"Mother doesn't know why I'm here?" He said in a cold tone.

Li Muyun was used to being with Hu Jiuzhang these days, and he was also used to talking with people in this straightforward way.If it had been different from the past and asked him to be so clear-cut, I don't know how much he would be provoked.

With just this cold remark, Zhao's expression changed instantly.She couldn't tell whether it was shock or doubt in her eyes, but the hand that was teasing the bird froze in mid-air, not knowing whether it was going to rise or fall.

"Muyun, what's the matter? Who provoked you, let me tell my mother?"

Zhao's reaction was rather quick, and a loving smile soon filled his face again.In the past, Li Muyun liked to see her smile the most, but now that smile became so ugly that it even made people shudder.He couldn't stop shivering, but his face was still as cold as ice.

"Why did mother chase Hu Jiuzhang away?"

Li Muyun just didn't want to say a word to her, he was extremely disgusted by that woman's face, just looking at it, his stomach couldn't stop churning back and forth, so that when he spoke, his tone became more and more sinister up.

"So that's what happened..." Zhao was obviously surprised by Li Muyun's attitude, she probably didn't expect Li Muyun to care so much about a wounded soldier who didn't know where he came from.

The woman's brows were slightly frowned, but Li Muyun felt that those two eyebrows were like two disgusting black maggots.

"Where did mother drive him?"

"Mu Yun, don't go looking for that kind of irrelevant person. It's not good for the prince to know about it. Mother gave him a silver tael and sent him away to recuperate. If you really want to find someone to accompany you , there are so many people in Chang'an City, who is not good to turn to? If you want to be a soldier, mother will ask You Xiaowei for you, it's better than the wounded soldier who doesn't know where he came from."

"When did I say that I wanted to find a soldier to be my companion?" Li Muyun gradually became angry between the lines. He even changed his address. This little bit of disrespect would be infinitely magnified in Zhao's eyes. Li Muyun knew that , but he just wanted to let Mrs. Zhao know the dissatisfaction in his heart, the clearer the better.

"Muyun, what are you doing..." Zhao's eyes were full of worry.

What a good disguise...

Li Muyun thought.

As if the mother was really worried about her son.If it was a real mother and son, the mother's reaction would cause the son's heart to tremble, right?

"I told my mother earlier that Hu Jiuzhang is my friend. Now that my mother drives away the friend I invited back to the house, don't you need to ask me a word?" Li Muyun's gloomy voice carried a bit of sympathy from the bottom of his heart. Immediately, he was a little bit more majestic with a hint of sinisterness.

At that moment, fear flashed in Zhao's eyes.But the astonishment quickly overwhelmed the imperceptible fear, and she couldn't help straightening her back, and her volume also increased.

"Muyun, what do you mean by that? Mother did it for your own good. You also know the prince's attitude towards you these years, but now instead of making any achievements to show him, instead What do you want to do? If these things reach the ears of the prince, what do you think he will think?"

Zhao's eloquence was plausible, but Li Muyun couldn't help laughing when he heard it.

"Hehe...you can still ask such a question?"

This time, he didn't even say the word "mother".This woman is not his biological mother, and now she is not even as good as his concubine.

"How do you talk to your mother!"

There was anger in Zhao's eyes.

"Why don't you admit it, mother? You don't care about me at all in your heart. I was ignored by my father, and you can't wish for it. Because as long as my father doesn't notice me, my two elder brothers will be valued. I don't even know about it. Is it? Your son has only two older brothers, and I'm just an obstacle in the position of the eldest son! Did you ever really regard me as your own son?"

Li Muyun's anger was also gradually revealed, and Hu Jiuzhang's face always flashed in his mind, as if he could use Hu Jiuzhang's courage to vent out all the sadness and anger in his heart.

"What did you say?"

Mrs. Zhao opened her mouth wide, and her eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe that these words came out of Li Muyun's mouth, and there was a hint of panic in her astonishment.

As soon as Li Muyun saw that expression, he already understood.Zhao's expression is very much like a thief who has been caught by her life, but she refuses to admit the fact that she has committed a crime, so she has no choice but to hide her ears and show anger again.

"Li Muyun, who taught you to say this? How can you think of your mother so much? I brought you up from a young age. I sewed your clothes for you when you were young. I will give you whatever you want. Have I ever made you feel wronged? How dare you say such things to me, how can you speculate on me with such sinister intentions? "

As Mrs. Zhao spoke, some tears overflowed from her eyes.Li Muyun watched, the blood in his whole body rushed to his head with the disgust in his heart, making his eyes turn red.But even though Li Muyun was angry, he didn't know how to think of more vicious words to respond to Zhao Shi's words.

He stood there, stunned for a moment.There was a thin, inaudible choking sound from his throat, and his Adam's apple surged up and down on his white and slender neck.

"...That's all, that's all I have to say to you."

Li Muyun finally lowered his head.After a while, he saw his Adam's apple throbbing up and down, and he finally raised his head to take a look at Mrs. Zhao, this woman who had been with him for 21 years, this woman whom he had served as his mother for more than ten years.

"Mother, please take care."

Li Muyun's voice seemed to float out of mid-air. His voice was extremely soft, with no ups and downs, let alone emotions.He turned around and walked out of the room. Mrs. Zhao chased after him and grabbed his wrist.

"where are you going?"

Zhao Shi didn't know whether it was panic or anger, her voice trembled slightly.

"Can't I go back to my room?"

When he spoke again, Li Muyun's voice became a few degrees colder.His face was already gray and white, calm and calm, no likes or dislikes could be seen.

"You have to go." Zhao's eyes were fixed on Li Muyun, and the expression on that face suddenly became extremely harsh.

"You can't go anywhere, Li Muyun, the prince didn't allow you to leave Chang'an, so you can't go anywhere."

She was talking to herself.Li Muyun struggled to shake off her hand, even with the heat in that hand.However, Mrs. Zhao shouted towards the outer hallway, and in the blink of an eye, three or two maids ran out of the corridor that was empty before, plus a strong and strong doorman, and all of them worked together , locked Li Muyun tightly.

"Come here! Take the son back to the room. The son was bewitched by the monster and lost his mind. You must take care of the son and never let him step out of the room again!"
