Rebirth of the Black-bellied Princess Mo - Chapter 817
The light of the fire reflected the sunset as if it burned through the entire sky, and the heat burning in the courtyard was still rising. Even though the fire has been put out, you can feel the heat wave in the breeze, blowing it in bursts.
Xia Chu put his hands on his hips with a furious look on his face, and suddenly asked him sharply, “Xiao Mubai! Do you have anything else to hide from me?”
When they stopped by the cliff on their way, she didn’t understand where Xiao Mubai’s sudden fear came from.
Until today, when she heard Xiao Mubai call out Zhong Guo’s name, she suddenly realized the truth and the reason for his anxiety that he had been unwilling to face.
“This… I’m not trying to deceive you.” Xiao Mubai pinched his brows while supporting his forehead.
Although he was 80% sure at the time, he never saw Zhong Guo take off his mask, and he still had one or two flukes in his heart. He always hoped that he guessed wrong, and he didn’t want to believe that the person was really Zhong Guo.
“When did you know that the sect master is Zhong Guo?” Xia Chu raised his chin lightly at him, as if to make him confess and be lenient.
“When he appeared for the first time, he swung Chengying away with his sword, and took Concubine Li into the air and exited Jianfu Gate with the three forces.”
Xia Chu was slightly stunned: “Just that sword, how did you recognize it?”
Xiao Mubai reached out and scratched the bridge of her delicate nose lightly: “He swung his sword close, and I smelled the faint aroma of pear blossoms on his body.”
At that time, Xiao Mubai’s heart was broken apart by what Concubine Li said.
I just felt that the faint scent of pear blossoms was very familiar, but I didn’t think about Zhong Kuo’s body.
It was not until Xiao Mubai saw the figure that appeared with Concubine Li one after another, and put him on Shi Fuqiu’s shoulder on the west gate city wall and persuaded him to withdraw from Chang’an. A figure that was once familiar and no longer familiar appeared in it.
How could he forget the person who had taught him martial arts and swordsmanship from a young age, that movement and technique had been placed on his shoulders countless times, and he almost instinctively thought of this person Zhongguo.
“No wonder you said that you were going to see Concubine Li the night before you left the capital, but you actually wanted to make sure that person was Zhong Guo? Even if it was a guess, you should have told me earlier. These days, you should How hard it is.” Xia Chu pressed his hand and held it in his palm, with a distressed look of pity in his eyes.
“It’s okay.” Xiao Mubai took her hand instead and led her down the pavilion step by step.
In those cold phoenix eyes, there is tenderness towards her, there is doting, there is light as bright as a star when she is happy, and there is darkness as clear as autumn water when she is depressed.
At this moment, there is only the relief of the rest of the life.
Originally, their plan today was also a risky survival proposed by Xiao Mubai.
They thought about it last night, only by replacing the explosives in the city without knowing it, can they truly relieve the danger of Fengwu people.
Xiao Mubai remembered that Wu Mahua was such a person and knew that he had mastered all the tricks, so he pulled him and asked if he could change the explosives that would explode once they were ignited into fireworks with little lethality.
Wuma Huacai was also attracted by his wild ideas, and there was a hint of embarrassment on his face: “Theoretically, it is possible, but I have never practiced it.”
Xiao Mubai immediately called Han Sa and took Wu Ma Huacai to practice…
As for the results of the actual operation, few of them do not know.
Xiao Mubai went to see Shi Jialiang again. The only remaining 20,000 Shi family troops in Fengwu City were now in charge of Tang Feng, but after all, Shi Jialiang was the main general who took them all the way back to Beijing from Xincheng.
If Shi Jialiang secretly returned to the city to persuade the 20,000 men, at least after the explosives were resolved, there would be fewer casualties in the siege.
Although Shi Jialiang has surrendered, according to the big crime of treason he committed, at most he will leave a whole body.
Seeing this side of him, Xiao Mubai not only gave him a chance to commit crimes, but also saved the lives of 20,000 soldiers in Fengwu City. Shi Jialiang was naturally grateful for his leadership.
After Xia Chu contacted the few people left behind by Bingwen in Fengwu City, he hurriedly took Wuma Huacai and Shi Jialiang away.
After Shi Jialiang led them to Mojia’s mansion, he left the team to run the errand Xiao Mubai gave him, and Xia Chu was not afraid that he would defect.
After all, if he really turned his back, Feng Wu would not have the strength to fight against the army, but if he could really make a contribution, it would not only save himself, but also the soldiers who had followed him back to Beijing in the past.
He raised his troops to return to Beijing that day, he had to obey his father’s orders, and now Shi Fuqiu is dead.
In contrast, Xia Chu didn’t believe that Shi Jialiang would die with Concubine Li, who had not seen each other a few times.
The back door of Mo’s house was opened by Bingwen’s people, because many of the people who infiltrated the Shi family’s army were girls who were chosen to serve Concubine Li.
Therefore, they managed to steal Lian Yan’s daily clothes that Xia Chu ordered them to steal.
Xia Chu, who changed into a woman’s clothes, did not frighten Wuma Huacai, but the Raven, who would kill people and see blood without frowning from the age of five, looked at him, and his face collapsed again and again.
Xia Chu wore a veil and took the two of them out of the Mo’s house from the backyard, while still proudly teasing the dazed Raven: “But I still remember when you said that my disguise was bad, it wasn’t because of me. lied to today.”
The raven looked at her slender figure and insisted on retorting: “Is it your sloppy disguise that deceived me to this day?”
Xia Chu looked at him sideways and raised his eyebrows slightly: “Why not?”
The raven pouted: “I thought you were too girly, but now it looks like you are a man…”
Raven’s original intention is that her words and deeds are almost the same as men’s. I think when he was fished out of the sea of fire in early Xia, he didn’t pick him up as soon as they met.
Who would dare to think that she would be a girl? !
But these words were heard in Xia Chu’s ears, but they mistakenly thought that the raven was talking about her appearance, and she looked like a big man.
Although he was covered with a veil, he could still see that he blushed when he was angry, and he also blushed silently when he recalled the clean raven that had been ripped off by Xia Chu.
The atmosphere became awkward for no apparent reason, and Wu Mahua looked left and right, and had to make a round of words: “Why are you suddenly changing into women’s clothes?”
When it came to business, Xia Chu restrained his shyness and said to Wuma Huacai: “When I just changed clothes, those people told me the approximate distribution of explosives, I pretended to be Lian Yan and took you first. Go to various places to replace the explosives on the grounds of inspection.”
Xia Chu then turned to Raven, called Bian Ding again, and told them the known distribution of explosives in the city, and asked them to explore other places besides the places just mentioned to see if there were any omissions.
