- Chapter 82: Eternal Rebirth
Although the courtyard of the Ouchi Guards Office is very large, taking up almost one-sixth of the Taiji Palace, there are no more than five people who are qualified to live alone in a small courtyard in this large courtyard. Deputy Commander Meng Wudi, who had broken his arm, has been recuperating at home since his return. Although his career has not been interrupted, it is difficult to go further.
Commander Luo Weiran didn't kill him, maybe he was still thinking about some old feelings. But this incident was a stain on Meng Wudi that could never be erased. Luo Weiran could no longer regard him as a confidant.
Therefore, the few private courtyards in the front yard of the Ouchi Guards Office, which originally seemed a bit empty, became even more lonely without Meng Wudi. But what was a bit surprising was that not long after, the yard vacated by Meng Wudi was actually occupied by someone.
Perhaps it¡¯s not shocking that Meng Wudi¡¯s yard is occupied by someone else. What¡¯s surprising is the identity of the person who moved in.
??????????????????????????????????????????????The most unlucky person who can live alone in a courtyard in the Ouchi Guards Office, and the most unlucky one is Meng Wudi, the deputy commander of the Ouchi Guards Office.
But the new owner of this small courtyard is only a thousand households.
??According to the level within the Ouchi Guards Department, Qianhu's status is already very high. But it is definitely not to the point of having such privileges. At the very least none of the other six thousand households in the Ouchi Guards Department have such privileges.
This person is also the first female Qianhu in the history of the Ouchi Guards Department.
Her name spread throughout the guard office almost as soon as she moved into the private courtyard. Everyone in the backyard love house was shocked, and they remembered this woman's name deeply in their hearts.
Mu Xiaoyao
If the people at the Ouchi Guards knew that she only had fifth-level strength, I'm afraid they would be even more shocked.
Since Mu Xiaoyao moved into this small courtyard, the layout and decoration of the courtyard have been changed. All the previously luxurious items were cleared away, leaving only a bookshelf, a desk and a few chairs. The calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall were replaced by a bright red dress, eye-catching and enchanting.
This dress was Mu Xiaoyao¡¯s signature look before she entered the Ouchi guard office. She has many such dresses, all in the same style. Maybe she was the only one who remembered that when she put on such a long skirt for the first time, a certain boy's eyes widened and his mouth watered.
He was not stingy with words of praise, but what Mu Xiaoyao remembered was just his eyes.
The red dress hanging on the wall was the one she wore on the day she and Fang Jie separated.
After most of the fifth-grade items in the house were cleared out, it looked a little empty, even shabby. This kind of arrangement is obviously not consistent with the status represented by this small courtyard. Even looking at the things that have been cleared out makes others feel an inexplicable sense of sadness that the tea will get cold as soon as people leave.
But Mu Xiaoyao didn't care about this. As for whether it seemed a little ruthless, she didn't even think about it. There was nothing in the house that she liked, so there was no need to keep it. She was too lazy to think about what Meng Wudi, who was recovering from his injuries at home, thought.
Mu Xiaoyao, who was sitting on the chair, was so lost in thought looking at the red dress on the wall that she didn't even notice Mr. Zhuo slowly walking into the courtyard.
¡°I don¡¯t know if she really didn¡¯t sense it, or if she already knew that the person coming was Zhuo Buyi.
After entering the room, Zhuo Buyi glanced at it, and then couldn't help but shake his head slightly. The woman sitting on the chair in front of him, lost in thought, was a little too independent and ignored many official taboos. Such a person, especially a woman, will most likely end up miserable if there is no one behind her to support her.
If Meng Wudi knew that all his belongings had been cleared away, the hatred in his heart would probably be so strong that it would be impossible to get rid of it. Although he has lost power, he is still the deputy commander of the Ouchi Guards Department. If he fights to the death over this matter, even Luo Weiran will not be able to stand by Mu Xiaoyao's side.
She is just a Qianhu, and a Qianhu with very low strength.
"Your friend¡¡"
Zhuo Buyi opened his mouth, hesitating how to continue. But Mu Xiaoyao's reaction surprised him. This woman who looked cold and indifferent suddenly turned her head and asked urgently: "What's wrong with him?"
"not him¡¡"
Zhuo Buyi shook his head, sat down on the chair opposite Mu Xiaoyao and said in a deep voice: "Before you went to see Fang Jie yesterday, I told you that the person who deceived Fang Jie out of Chang'an might really be the Ministry of War. There are people in the Ministry of War who want to get rid of Fang Jie. The commander of your affairs in Fangu has suppressed him. At this time, there are still people who are not letting Fang Jie go I think it is not the intention of the Minister of War, Yu Donglai. That is a person who can see the overall situation and smell clues. He will not add trouble to the Ministry of War at this time.??, causing trouble to His Majesty. "
"It's easy to investigate this matter. You only need to find out who in the Ministry of War has anything to do with you. For those who are not directly related to you, just find out who has any connection with Fan Zhen in the border town. The most complicated thing is just to check. Who has anything to do with Li Xiaozong and Li Yuanshan? But when His Majesty went on a killing spree against the Ministry of War, people who were related to Li Yuanshan, including the minister Hou Junci, were all beheaded"
Zhuo Buyi sighed and said: "I said, don't rush to do anything. I will investigate this matter. After I find out, I will find a way to solve it. But your missing friend obviously went too faryesterday At night someone broke into the yamen of the Ministry of War and killed one hundred and four people in one go, including three masters of the seventh grade and one of the eighth grade. The people who broke into the military department were also seriously injured. The subordinates of the nine-level strongman who rushed to escape, but it is estimated that the chances are bad. "
Mu Xiaoyao stood up abruptly. After being silent for a few seconds, he said firmly: "I'm going to see Fang for explanation."
¡°I can¡¯t suppress this matter for long.¡±
Zhuo Buyi shook his head and motioned for her to sit down: "I haven't talked about the commander and the governor. But it's not that difficult for them to find out who they are. If you My friend died, I went to tell the commander about it, and I could find any excuse to pass it off. It could even be said that the Jianghu people hated the imperial court, or that it was revenge from the Meng Yuan people, as long as Your Majesty is willing to believe it. If he¡¯s not dead, it¡¯s not just the Ouchi Guards who are watching this matter.¡±
"People from Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Yamen of the Ministry of War are all investigating. To this end, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice have dispatched a large number of experts. Chang'an City is very big, but it cannot withstand their plowing and clearing and investigation."
Mu Xiaoyao¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Zhuo Buyi and asked word by word: ¡°Sir, do you mean that Shen Qingshan must die?¡±
Zhuo Buyi didn¡¯t answer, but nodded.
Mu Xiaoyao sneered, turned and walked out the door: "Sir, you just said something wrong. Shen Qingshan is not my friend, but my opponent But even so, if someone wants to kill her, kill her first. No matter how bad we are, we are still family members."
She paused and did not look back: "If you want to arrest me, sir, please wait until I see Fang Jie before arresting me. The grudges between us are none of our business, but if we die we would rather die together. I I think Fang Jie would think so too."
She walked away without any hesitation.
Zhuo Buyi looked at her back and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He shook his head mockingly and said, "Sooner or later, with such a temper, you will suffer a big loss."
"You really value her and are interested in her?"
Someone asked.
Zhuo Buyi was not surprised at all, even though Mu Xiaoyao was the only one in the house before he walked into the small courtyard. The man who spoke came out of the house.
"She will become the pinnacle of power, give me time."
He said.
The person who came out of the house picked a peach from the peach tree in the small yard, took out a white handkerchief, wiped it and took a bite.
Sour and astringent, these two flavors are so strong that it makes people frown.
But the man who ate the green peach didn't care. He chewed it very carefully and even said it was with relish.
"You know, I won't help her just because of your empty words. If I don't see anything beneficial to our Ouchi Guards Office, even if she is the person you like, I won't help her. If something happens to me in the future If anything threatens the Ouchi Guards, you can eradicate me without hesitation"
The man looked at Zhuo Buyi and said seriously: "Don't let the Ouchi Guards fall into a passive position. This matter is so big that no one can withstand His Majesty's anger."
"ButI will tell His Majesty within three days. I haven't found out what happened yet. But it will be three days at most, because Hou Wenji only gave me three days of face."
He turned and left, walking slowly.
Luo Weiran didn¡¯t know when he appeared in this courtyard, or even in the house. Perhaps before Mu Xiaoyao left, he was already in the courtyard or even in the house. Or, when she was sitting on the chair and looking at the red dress in a daze, he was standing behind her and looking at her.
Mu Xiaoyao left, so she didn¡¯t know that this man had been here. If she knew, in addition to the creeping fear, it would only have a greater impact on her self-confidence.

Changchun Garden
The scenery in the tree-lined garden is beautiful everywhere. The emperor, who was a little irritable because of the government affairs, walked out of the study and took a walk along the stone steps. The wind blowing through the forest brought a refreshing feeling to his body, which made him feel much calmer
Su Buwei, the eunuch of the imperial study room, followed cautiously, following every step.
The emperor walked to the edge of the rockery and looked at the sixteen characters carved on it: "The mountain is high, it is dangerous to reach the clouds, it is difficult to climb, it is difficult to descend, step by step, steady." He frowned slightly, and suddenly felt that it was necessary to have these sixteen characters Chiseled it off, I felt even more annoyed when I looked at it. But after taking three steps out, his expression suddenly became startled, and his frown relaxed a lot.
Behind the rockery is a lotus pond, which is a good time for lotus flowers to bloom. The blooming lotus flowers in the green pond are pleasing to the eye.
"Su Buwei"
"The slave is here"
Su Buwei quickly stepped forward and bowed to wait for the emperor's instructions.
"Tomorrow I will find a craftsman to change the sixteen characters on the rockeryjust change the last two characters. The four characters "step by step and steady" are not good. Sometimes if you seek stability too much, you will become cowardly."
"Change it to what?"
Su Buwei asked.
"The last two words should be called Shenglian."
After the emperor finished his instructions, he looked back at the rockery and continued to walk forward.
Lotus grows step by step
Su Buwei didn¡¯t understand what this word meant.
Changchun Garden is very big, and the emperor is also very busy. Since the garden was built, the emperor has not looked at it carefully. Looking out from the study room, you can only see the rockery and not the lotus pond behind it. If he hadn't wanted to go out for a walk today, he still wouldn't have known that there was a cave behind the rocks, so he felt a little emotional. In the eleven years since he took the throne, he had worked hard and walked on thin ice. He came to this garden to escape the summer every year, but he didn't know what this garden looked like.
"Your Majesty"
Su Buwei looked back and saw Luo Weiran, the commander of the Ouchi Guards, chasing after him and quickly reminded him: "You summon Luo Weiran, he is already here."
"Um"
The emperor hummed, walked slowly into a pavilion and sat down. On one side of the pavilion is the lotus pond, with rippling blue waves, and the pink dotted among the green is particularly eye-catching. The emperor even had the urge to paint this beautiful scenery, and then he realized that he had not touched a paintbrush for four or five years. When he first ascended the throne, he would occasionally paint a favorite landscape in the royal study for meditation. After the throne was firmly established, he did not touch the painting with pen and ink again.
The methods I used to meditate don¡¯t seem to work anymore.
"Your Majesty"
Luo Weiran quickly walked outside the pavilion and kowtowed in a polite manner.
"Get up, you have a lot to do. Let's make a long story short What do you think about the case where the Ministry of War was almost killed? Although I left the matter to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment, they No one has as much experience as you. You have also been to the Ministry of War to conduct an autopsy. Can you tell who the person is who is responsible?"
Luo Weiran was silent, and the emperor looked a little unhappy after looking at him.
"I thought"
Luo Weiran took a deep breath, lowered his head and said word by word: "It should be an assassin sent by the Meng Yuan Empire."
This answer was obviously a lie, but the emperor nodded with satisfaction.
"What's the reason?"
The emperor asked.
"The people of the Northern Liao Dynasty wanted to surrender to His Majesty, and the people of the Meng Yuan Dynasty were naturally unhappy, so they sent troops to attack the border town of Fan Gu, but they were defeated by the army led by the right Xiaowei General Li Yuanshan. The Meng Yuan thieves were unwilling to accept it, so they sent a peerless master Sneaking into the Ministry of War and trying to steal the defense map of the Sui Dynasty border army, stealing the map would naturally lead to launching troops against the Sui Dynasty. After Meng Yuan's masters sneaked into the Ministry of War, they were noticed by the military attache on duty. In the melee, the Ministry of War lost more than a hundred people. , but also killed the masters sent by Meng Yuan and prevented the Meng Yuan people from stealing the map. "
When he said these words, Luo Weiran's body trembled slightly.
He was betting, and when he raised his head and saw a slight smile on His Majesty's lips, he knew that he was right, and His Majesty needed such a reason now.
But soon, the smile on the emperor's lips disappeared.
The emperor stood up with his hands behind his back.
"Luo Weiran, the truth you answered is very good, and I am very satisfied. But this truth is for the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of the Sui Dynasty to see, not for me. What Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment found out will also be this truth. But, what I want is not just this. If you can't find out who broke into the military headquarters at night and started killing people within seven days, I will withdraw your Ouchi Guards Commander. It's not just you Hou Wenji. Don¡¯t do it to the governor.¡±
The emperor turned to look at Luo Weiran and said in a majestic tone: "In the hundred years since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, there has never been such a shameful thing. The Yamen of the Ministry of War was actually bloodbathed I want to know what it is like"How much hatred a person has towards the Ministry of War will make him take risks. If it had been done by the people of the Sui Dynasty, I would not only be angry but also sad. "
"What I want is not only the murderer, but also whether there is any dirty things hidden in the Ministry of War."
He raised his head and looked up at the blue sky.
"Whoever stops me from doing what I want to do and must do at this time, I will make him unable to be reincarnated forever." - Didn't finish reading?
