Cloud of the Qing Dynasty

Mu Liuyun didn't see much of these things, so it was inevitable that he would blame others. Zhang Chi coughed and explained to him: "First of all, I am not such a person. I am devoted to you and will never look at other women too much. But other people can Not necessarily, it is very common to marry a wife and have children while having an affair with a man, and it can even be said to account for the majority. Besides, they are in this relationship now, and it may not have been the same relationship back then, and they may have been pure righteous brothers at the beginning. After Situ Yanran passed away, maybe they got together because of emptiness and loneliness."

Mu Liuyun said: "There is some truth in saying this, what is the reason, you will know when you ask Qin Wuqi."

After talking for a long time, Mu Liuyun still believed in Qin Wuqi's character, and Zhang Chi didn't want to continue arguing with him on this issue: "Well, if Qin Wuqi is really Yongninghou's illegitimate son, then he has no reason to kill Yongninghou , we can basically eliminate his suspicion, if he is not, I just take this opportunity to investigate Qin Wuqi's whereabouts in the capital during that time."

After the freshness of Xiao Biesheng's newlyweds passed, Mu Liuyun didn't pay much attention to Zhang Chi again, and put his mind on martial arts secret books again. Zhang Chi also knew the fun, and stayed in the study every day to read books or write letters to his subordinates, so quiet It was as if there was an extra piece of furniture in the room, and it didn't bother him at all. He only came to ask Mu Liuyun to eat at the time of meal, and chatted with him a few words.

Speaking of which, Zhang Chi came to accompany Mu Liuyun to celebrate the New Year, but he didn't completely ignore the affairs of the capital. With the experience he had accumulated over the years in Baodao, he quickly established a team, collecting the collected information every day. The news is summarized, and the important content is sent to the Shangqing Palace for him to review.

In a few days it will be the New Year. The New Year in the Shangqing Palace is not as lively as the folks. There are only some activities such as offering sacrifices to the Three Qings in the main hall. Mu Liuyun can skip these activities, and Zhang Chi cooks one in the room. A small hot pot, prepared a bunch of dumplings and other dishes made by myself, warmed a pot of small wine and closed the door with Mu Liuyun to celebrate their new year.

Mu Liuyun is used to living alone on the mountain. For him, there is not much difference between the New Year and the weekdays, and he doesn't understand why others make it so ceremonial, but seeing Zhang Chi's enthusiasm, he can't bear to sweep him Feeling happy, I temporarily put down the martial arts cheats and had a good meal with him.

Mu Liuyun, who had already decided not to drink at all, was persuaded by Zhang Chi to have a few sips, and then he began to feel a little dizzy. His face was pale all the time, and Zhang Chi hadn't seen such a peachy-faced Mu Liuyun for a long time, so he couldn't care less about keeping the old age, so he coaxed him into bed, pulled up the quilt, and made out with him.

The drunken Mu Liuyun didn't want to move a finger, and let Zhang Chi kiss and touch him, but his thoughts had already flown to the sky, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his drowsy mind.

Just when Zhang Chi was almost ready, he suddenly reached out to cover Zhang Chi's kissing lips: "Wait!"

"Hmm... what's wrong?" Zhang Chi pulled his hand down, thinking that he was making him uncomfortable, but Mu Liuyun sat up and began to dress: "I figured it out! It should be that way!"

"Ah?" Zhang Chi was stunned and didn't know what happened. Mu Liuyun had already got out of bed: "Go to bed first, I'll go to practice!"

"Hey..." Zhang Chi stretched out a hand, and wanted to say something to keep him, but he thought that Mu Liuyun might have suddenly realized the breakthrough point of the secret book. The fleeting inspiration slipped away, so he could only put down his hands, and looked at Mu Liuyun's leaving back with resentment.

In February, the land that had been frozen for a whole winter had just seen some spring, but the city of Wuling was already very lively. Qin Wuqi, the owner of Jinghong Villa, was about to get married, and many martial arts sects who had received invitations came to celebrate with gifts. A bit of the excitement of the martial arts conference back then.

Mu Liuyun also came with the disciples of the Shangqing Palace. This was the first time he appeared on the rivers and lakes after he was injured. He was wearing heavy clothes compared to the early spring weather, and the water-stopping sword was also handed over to him The waiter Qingyue held it, and everyone in the world speculated that the rumor that he lost his martial arts after being injured might be true.

Many people who used to want to curry favor with Mu Liuyun, but Mu Liuyun ignored them, suddenly became indifferent to Mu Liuyun, and they didn't even come up to say hello.

Mu Liuyun has long been used to this kind of situation. Ever since he was injured, even inside the sect of Shangqing Palace, some people's faces have changed as they say, and they have lost due respect for him, the Grand Master Uncle. Bossing around, not to mention these people who originally intended to make friends because of his peerless martial arts.

However, Qin Wuqi's attitude towards him was still the same as before, he personally greeted him warmly and said, "Tianxuan Road has come a long way and it's been hard work, I've been worried that your injury is not recovering well enough to come to the wedding, see you now You're fine, and I'm at ease."

Mu Liuyun nodded, and even seemed a little cold in answering: "I'm sorry."

Qin Wuqi knew that he always spoke in such a tone, so he was not surprised: "Come here, please, Xu Changge, take them to the wing room prepared for the Shangqing Palace to rest for a while, since Brother Zhang Chi has also come to appreciate the face, arrange for him to come with him." The Daoist should live in one place."

Zhang Chi took the opportunity to say: "Master Qin, I have something I want to talk to you in private, when will I be free?"

Qin Wuqi said apologetically: "There are a lot of things to do today, if it's not something urgent, can you wait until tomorrow, when I will have a banquet for the Taoist priest and Brother Zhang Chi alone."

Seeing people from other sects arriving one after another, Zhang Chi saw that Qin Wuqi was busy entertaining, so he said goodbye first.

After they washed up a bit, Qin Wuqi hosted a banquet in the flower hall to welcome the newly arrived martial arts practitioners today, and Mu Liuyun naturally went with his disciples.

As soon as this once influential figure appeared on the stage, he immediately attracted countless eyes.Whether it's the title of the winner of the martial arts tournament, or the bravery of killing Wei Wuji alone, or the identity of the descendant of the blood demon, or the shocking battle at Nanmen Pass, the image of Mu Liuyun in people's minds has long been established. Full of legend.

It is rumored that after killing nearly a hundred people in that battle, he was also seriously injured. This is believed to be true, but some people still do not believe the rumor that his martial arts have been abolished after being injured. After all, from the perspective of common sense, If Mu Liuyun really lost his martial arts, he should hide in the sect and act low-key. Why did he come out and walk around with great fanfare?

Regarding this doubt, some people just whispered and whispered to each other, while some people couldn't hold it back. Among them, Yan Laosi's sworn brother who was once knocked down by Mu Liuyun in the ring, stood up and openly provocatively said: : "I heard that Daoist Tianxuan's martial arts skills are unmatched by anyone, and I am only the third son of Qi, so I came here specially to ask for advice."

Mu Liuyun said lightly: "I'm not eligible for everyone's martial arts contest. Since you want to learn martial arts in Shangqing Palace so much, Qingliu, come and challenge this dear friend."

Qingliu came out in response, the third son of Qi believed that Mu Liuyun's martial arts had been lost, and deliberately made things difficult for him to find a place for his righteous brother who was beaten in the past, but Mu Liuyun ignored him, and immediately pulled down his face: " I was challenging you, but you sent a junior, do you look down on me?"

Unexpectedly, Mu Liuyun admitted it: "That's exactly the case, so what about you?"

"You...!" Qi Laosan was so angry that Zhang Chi hurried out to smooth things over: "The banquet is about to start, and the owner of Qin Zhuang is also coming. If you want to compete, why don't you wait until after the banquet is over to find a venue for the competition?" Otherwise, if the cups and plates are splashed in the fight, wouldn't it be like smashing Jinghong Villa?"

Of course, Qi Lao San didn't want to offend Jinghong Villa, so he lowered the steps with these words: "Hmph, okay, for the sake of Master Qin, I will come to you for advice after dinner!"

Mu Liuyun's attitude of avoiding the challenge made everyone present more sure of the rumors that he had lost all his tendons and energy. This is neither arguing nor paying attention.

Not long after, the people attending the banquet gathered together one after another, and the busy Qin Wuqi also arrived. He greeted and served the food without mentioning it. During the meal, the servants whispered in his ear the conflict just now, and Qin Wuqi nodded to show that he understood.

After dinner, Zhang Chi was still worried that Mr. Qi would come to trouble Mu Liuyun again, and told Qingliu Qingyue and the others to serve around every step, even if they went to the latrine, they had to guard the door, but the strange thing was that until the wedding was over, they also Qi Laosan was never seen again.

Undoubtedly, Qin Wuqi had already taken care of this blind-eyed guy, regardless of whether Mu Liuyun knew it or not, he accepted Qin Wuqi's love again.
