108 The road to return is uneven (three)

Liu Wuqing thought for a while and said, "This doesn't make sense. Tracking techniques require spices. He left before us. The carriage was bought in Yuanling Town when we left Miaojiang. How did he sprinkle spices on us? Also, since we can track us, using witch techniques again is better than these second-rate killers."

From what he said, it is indeed unlikely that it was Xiao Qiulian, but who would it be except him? How could it always pay attention to their whereabouts?

Things seem to be getting more and more complicated, making people increasingly difficult to understand.

Mu Ziling said: "If it weren't for Xiao Qiulian's tracking technique, then we should pay attention to our whereabouts and follow us immediately. We will definitely notice it. In addition to this, we can only leave a liner at every inn and inn along the road."

"This layout is really a bit huge." Liu Wuqing said.

"If it were Mu Zijing or other powerful people in the court, it would be impossible," Mu Ziling said.

Ye Jiaoxi said, "After talking, it's still for you. How many enemies have you made in the court?" There seemed to be a little joke in his words, but to others, there were still strange worries.

Mu Ziling choked, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you and A Tuan anyway."

At this moment, a "cuckoo" sound came from the eaves. The three of them looked up and saw a carrier pigeon landing on the corner of the eaves and croaking at them.

Liu Wuqing looked at it carefully and said, "It's the carrier pigeon from the Resurrection Valley." He said that, and walked forward and stretched out his hand to it.

The carrier pigeon seemed to be human and fluttered a few times on his arm.

Liu Wuqing gently stroked it and said, "It was from Aunt Lan." As he said that, he took off the note from the pigeon's legs and looked closely.

Ye Jiaoxi was slightly shocked when she heard that it was the pigeon that Aunt Lan passed on. In the past five years, except for when she had just given birth to the group, Aunt Lan had greeted her. I don’t know what it meant to send a message to them at this critical moment. When Liu Wuqing’s face slightly condensed, Ye Jiaoxi felt that a storm was coming.

After Liu Wuqing finished watching, he glanced at Mu Ziling and said to Ye Jiaoxi: "Aunt Lan said that someone pretended to be the Shadowless Sect and she would solve it. Let us return to the Resurrection Valley."

Ye Jiaoxi was even more surprised when she heard this. She was reaching out to show her the notes, but she saw Liu Wuqing pinch the notes and turn them into pieces and scattered in the wind.

"Hey-I haven't seen it yet, why did you ruin it so quickly?" Ye Jiaoxi shouted.

"Just writing this, what else do you want to read?"

Ye Jiaoxi curled her lips, "I just thought it was strange, why did Aunt Lan interfere? Also, we have all reached this point, so why did we go back to the Resurrection Valley? Do you have to find out the truth?"

"The world is getting more and more uneasy, so it's better to go back to the Resurrection Valley." Liu Wuqing said, and looked at Mu Ziling, "The Seventh Prince shouldn't want Xier and A Tuan to encounter any accidents, right?"

When Liu Wuqing said he wanted to take Xier and Atuan back to the Resurrection Valley, his face looked a little unhappy. He heard him say this and said, "I will protect you, and nothing unexpected happens, let alone, isn't it safer for the royal palace?"

"I'm afraid it may not be possible. At least few people in this world can enter the Resurrection Valley, but the royal palace is different."

"Xier is the Seventh Princess, A Tuan is the Prince. If you want to go back, you will go back to the palace and go to the Resurrection Valley. This is inappropriate in terms of emotion or reason."

"The Seventh Prince's Mansion is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. When did it become Xi'er?"

"In my heart, it is Xi'er."

"Oh, don't say it!" Ye Jiaoxi said impatiently. The two of them fought against each other at any time. Even if Ye Jiaoxi ignored them, she could not bear the situation. "Did you be full in the courtyard in the middle of the night?"

The Seventh Princess is just a title, what's there to worry about? What's more, even she herself has not decided whether to return to the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

When Mu Ziling and Liu Wuqing saw that Ye Jiaoxi was impatient, they stopped arguing.

Liu Wuqing looked at her and said, "Aunt Lan said this, it must be her reason. Let's go back to the Resurrection Valley first. As for the future, you will decide whether to go or stay."

Who will know what will happen in the future? Maybe she will stay at that time, or in other words, after the great changes in the world, people's hearts will also change.

Ye Jiaoxi thought about it and shook her head, "No matter what, I still have to check it out in person when the Wuyingmen was wronged. Let's go back to Jinchuan first, and you can't let Xianxian face these alone."

"Xianxian and Mo Jiannan have an engagement, and Wudang will protect her, so you don't have to worry." Liu Wuqing wanted to persuade her.

Ye Jiaoxi looked at him, and her clear eyes seemed to be able to look into his heart. She said, "Brother Liu, why did you suddenly persuade me to return to the Resurrection Valley like this? Did Aunt Lan's letter say something else? Why did you insist on returning to the Resurrection Valley so much? Is something wrong?"

Liu Wuqing's eyes flashed almost without any proof, and said, "What else can I say? Let you stay away from the court and don't go to muddy waters. She will solve the matter in southern Jiangsu. I'll ask me to take you back to the Resurrection Valley, that's all."

Ye Jiaoxi lowered her eyes. Aunt Lan probably worried about her. She knew that Mu Ziling had come to Jinchuan and was afraid that she would return to the Seven Princes Mansion. She also persuaded her more than once, but now she still doesn't want to.

Seeing that she stopped asking questions, Liu Wuqing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, since Liu Wuqing received the news, Mu Ziling noticed his strangeness, as if he had been scruples on him, and then tore the note so anxiously. Mu Ziling slightly stared, and there was probably any news in the letter.

The atmosphere became stagnant with Ye Jiaoxi's silence, and the surroundings were so shocked that A Tuan could hear even breathing. The two seemed to have been waiting for her decision, and they had never spoken for a long time.

After a while, Ye Jiaoxi raised his eyes and said, "No matter what, Jinchuan still wants to go back. When the matter of the murder of Leader Su was revealed, let's make plans."

She didn't say whether to return to the Resurrection Valley or the Seventh Prince's Mansion after the matter was revealed. I'm afraid even she could not decide such a choice.

Liu Wuqing sighed softly. She was not unclear about Ye Jiaoxi's temperament, but she was very persistent. He also knew that even if Mu Ziling didn't stop her, it would be difficult to bring her back to the Resurrection Valley now. However, the wind and rain were approaching, and he really didn't want her to be involved.

After thinking about it, Liu Wuqing said again: "Xi'er, Aunt Lan's words have their own reasons. Do you really want to go back to Jinchuan?"

Ye Jiaoxi nodded. Although she was slow in movement, she was unspeakable.

"No matter what happens, don't regret it?"

As soon as these words came out, Ye Jiaoxi was shocked, "What will happen? Brother Liu, do you know what?"

Mu Ziling's eyes suddenly became cold, but Liu Wuqing just shook his head and said, "Who knows what will happen in the future? It's just that you are ready. Since Aunt Lan has sent such a letter, the tense must be extraordinary."

Ye Jiaoxi exhaled gently, "Since no one knows what will happen in the future, there is no need to worry about it now. Brother Liu, let's go back to Jinchuan now, so as to save the night and dreams and encounter another group of killers."

When Liu Wuqing said this, she knew it would be useless to persuade her. She nodded and could only hope that everything would be safe.

Mu Ziling, who had not spoken for a long time, kept listening to their conversation quietly. He could see Liu Wuqing's strangeness clearly. What else must have been written in the letter, and it is very likely that it was about him.

He remembered that five years ago, after Ye Jiaoxi left, he wanted to find clues from her Lan family's unique skills and Aunt Lan in her mouth that she could find her where she went, but accidentally found the shocking secret.

At that time, after many investigations, the secret of the Lan family was finally dug up. The orphans of the Lan family were wandering around in the world and were involved in the Qiling dispute at that time, and the battle between the late emperor who was still Qiling and the Guangling Marquis at that time, and finally married the late emperor and became the current queen mother.

Aunt Lan’s letter was the Queen Mother’s letter... Mu Ziling frowned almost unexpectedly.

The Queen Mother, although he kept calling out to the Queen Mother, and although he knew that she had been in the middle of the tension between him and Mu Zinan in recent years, the person who pulled him away, who was originally only one step away from the throne, was also her, the woman he respected and feared.

She just wanted to stabilize the government, stabilize the entire Daqi, and let the princes live in peace. Mu Ziling knew all these, but it would be fake if she had no resentment towards her.

If it weren't for her, the person sitting on the throne would have been him Mu Ziling.

The snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman gains profit. This is also her plan. Did the struggle between him and Mu Zijing make Mu Zinan's throne more and more stable?

Now, she sent news to Liu Wuqing again. Although she didn't know what was written on it, Mu Ziling could guess it, looking at Liu Wuqing's reaction, and there was a big move in the court.

It has been seven years since the death of the late emperor. Mu Ziling seems to be very serene in these seven years, but there are quite a few movements underground. Since there are movements in the court, he will not wait any longer.

When Liu Wuqing and Ye Jiaoxi went to the stable to pick up the carriage, Mu Ziling left him and acted alone by cleaning up the fallen killers.

The night was shrouded in, as if all undercurrents were hidden under the seemingly quiet appearance.

Mu Ziling blew a whistle toward the dark night. After a moment, four or five dark guards in black appeared in front of him. Since leaving Miaojiang, Mu Ziling has contacted them and followed them all the way.

Several people knelt on one knee, and the leading man said, "What is the Lord's order?"

"Send a message to the twelfth prince to keep paying attention to the movements in the court at all times. If I guess correctly, the one on the throne might have to take action." Mu Ziling stood with his hands behind his back and said lightly.

"I will take the order!" The leader responded, and then he whizzed a few times, and the secret guards disappeared into the night instantly.

At this time, Ye Jiaoxi walked over and said, "Zi Ling, are you okay? We should leave."

Mu Ziling turned around and said, "It's already done, let's go."

However, Ye Jiaoxi stood still, looked in the direction where the secret guards disappeared, then looked at Mu Ziling, and said, "Who was leaving just now?"

Mu Ziling was slightly surprised and knew that Ye Jiaoxi had discovered it. Although her voice was faint, as if she was just asking casually, Mu Ziling could hear it. She was a little unhesitant. He curled his lips and smiled, "It's just a guard from the royal palace. He kept spreading the things about Jinchuan to me, just like during the day."

"What's going on this time?" Ye Jiaoxi asked.

Mu Ziling still smiled lightly and said, "This time I asked him to send a message back, so that Yan Sang could check where the killer who came here came from."

Ye Jiaoxi nodded, asked no more questions, and said, "Let's go quickly, Brother Liu is already waiting at the back door."

Mu Ziling nodded and walked towards the back door with her.

After all, he didn't tell the truth, just like five years ago. He felt a little uneasy in his heart, and Mu Ziling held her hand tightly.

"What's wrong?" Ye Jiaoxi noticed his reaction and said suspiciously.

Mu Ziling said, "Xi'er, you will go back to the palace with me, right?" A slightly soft voice was filled with a hint of nervousness that even he could not detect.

Ye Jiaoxi was silent for a long time before saying, "Let's talk about it, let's make a decision after the matter of Jinchuan is revealed." She hesitated after all, and could not make up her mind to leave, nor could she follow him back to the palace with peace of mind.

"Atuan should also have a complete home." Mu Ziling said again. Atuan was the only bond between him and Ye Jiaoxi. Sometimes he was really grateful to God. Giving him such a son would always help him keep Ye Jiaoxi at critical moments.

"Atuan is used to being casual in the Resurrection Valley. I'm afraid he can't adapt to the mixed rules in the royal palace," said Ye Jiaoxi. "And, there is an extra son in the seven royal palace for no reason. Aren't you afraid of gossiping in the palace?"

"It's the prince." Mu Ziling said, with a strange determination in his voice, "As for gossip, they like to talk or not."

Ye Jiaoxi was slightly stunned and looked at him in surprise. He left her in the palace with unknown origins in order to make less gossip, but now he can say these words. Moreover, she finally surprised her by making A Tuan the crown prince.

Seeing Ye Jiaoxi's surprise, Mu Ziling just smiled faintly, "Is it a surprise? I said, you are my wife, always. A Tuan is naturally the eldest son. What else can he be if he is not a prince? Rules or something, if he doesn't like to keep, it's no big deal."

Ye Jiaoxi sighed softly, thought for a while, and said, "You always say you want me to go back to the palace, but this is not the only way to give A Tuan a complete home. Why can't you hide in the world with me?"

She wanted to say these words a long time ago. Five years ago, she had the urge to speak more than once, but at that time she knew that Mu Ziling could not leave the prince and travel with her, so she swallowed these words again and again.

However, today, Ye Jiaoxi couldn't help but say it. Although she knew that the possibility of his agreement was very small, she still wanted to say it, as if she had made it clear and could break a thought.

Sure enough, Mu Ziling didn't answer for a long time, as if he was thinking about the words. He was just about to reach the back door and said, "Xi'er..."
