Perhaps because Jing Chun didn't say anything, Liu Shengsheng rushed downstairs without saying a word, but only saw Mu Qingqing who was crying and fainting on the ground, and corpses all over the backyard.
Mu Hong and Hou Ye were both dead...
Is it Mu Yanxi’s hand?
Things are getting serious now...
Liu Shengsheng checked Mu Qingqing's pulse and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she found that the poison in her body had been detoxified.
She struggled to carry Mu Qingqing on her back and prepared to take her away, but a large group of guards suddenly appeared around them and surrounded them as soon as they rushed in.
"Mother, why are you here?"
Xiao Jiang's voice came from her ears. Liu Shengsheng looked back and realized that Xiao Jiang and Nan Muze had both rushed over.
Looking at the tragic situation in front of him, Nan Muze frowned, "Where is Mu Yanxi?"
"Brother Ze, you came too late. Everyone in the residence was dead before you arrived."
Jing Chun walked down the stairs nonchalantly.
The moment he saw Jing Chun, Nan Muze's face turned even more ugly, "Did you kill him?"
"Don't say that. Your little concubine and I came here to save people. Who knew that when we came here, they were already killing each other. Mr. Hou was killed by Mu Yanxi, and Mu Yanxi was also killed. Mr. Hou died after being seriously injured, so there is no need for me to do anything, right?"
While the two were talking, Liu Shengsheng had already left there with Mu Qingqing on her back.
Xiaojiang's face was heavy, "Sir, the princess and the queen should have come to save the third young lady. I don't know when they became friends..."
Nan Muze just looked at Jing Chun intently, making Jing Chun feel a little uncomfortable.
"Don't look at me like that. I also want to tell you that they are here. Didn't you run too fast?"
"Did you bring Liu Shengsheng here?"
Nan Muze looked at him, as if he couldn't understand him.
He smiled and said, "Brother Ze didn't even look at me twice just now. Why do you care about me now that she's gone?"
Nan Muze was too lazy to pay attention to him, and instead asked people to carry Mr. Hou back.
When passing by Jing Chun, Jing Chun sighed, "Everything in the world is unpredictable. Who would have thought that the Wuqiu Gang would be wiped out so easily..."
Nan Muze stopped and said, "Isn't it as you wish?"
Jing Chun shook the fan in his hand, "Where is it?"
"..."
Mu Qingqing was brought back to the palace by Liu Shengsheng, and it was not until midnight that she finally woke up.
After waking up, she didn't rest any more and stayed on the bed all night long.
Until the next morning, when Liu Shengsheng came into the room to see her, she was still sitting blankly.
Liu Shengsheng breathed out, "I know you feel uncomfortable, but your injury is not healed yet, so you'd better eat something."
"Second brother, is he okay?"
Liu Shengsheng was startled. She thought Mu Qingqing would not ask Mu Yanxi again. After all, the Marquis died in his hands.
Recalling Mu Yanxi's words before his death, Liu Shengsheng said after a long time: "Well, he won't die for the time being, but he has escaped from the capital and he probably will never come back in this life."
Listening to Liu Shengsheng's words, Mu Qingqing slowly closed her eyes and said nothing.
Liu Shengsheng asked someone to bring her a bowl of porridge, but she didn't drink it.
"Things have happened, you should cheer up."
"How do I cheer up when everyone is gone?"
Mu Qingqing's voice was hoarse, "Without them, where would the Houfu still be? I no longer have a home."
"Don't think so."
"But my heart is so confused and I suddenly feel so confused. Do you think I still have a future?"
Liu Shengsheng was silent, "There is nothing to be confused about, as long as you live, you will have a future."
Mu Qingqing was silent for a long time, "Maybe..."
Mu Qingqing didn't feel depressed for long. When she got hungry, she drank the porridge obediently.
After resting at Liu Shengsheng's place for two days, he returned home.
In just two days, she seemed to have grown up a lot. She looked pale
Her face was full of haggard. I thought she would stay in the palace to recuperate, but I heard that she had dismissed all the servants in the palace.
Not only that, she also announced that she had returned to the countryside, as if she would no longer be the daughter of the Marquis after his death...
Nan Muze was equally busy, and no one was seen for several days. He seemed to be cleaning up the remnants of the Wuqiu Gang.
After all, the Wuqiu Gang's forces are spread all over the country, and there are people from them almost everywhere. Even if there are residual forces, it is normal.
But Liu Shengsheng has not been idle. After experiencing so many things, she has deeply realized how weak she is.
So in addition to eating and sleeping, she practiced Qinggong almost all the time. She would get up early to run before dawn every morning, and then dance with swords in the yard. Although she could not become stronger in a short period of time, her physical fitness must be improved.
After almost practicing, Liu Shengsheng thought of Mu Qingqing again and wondered if she had really returned to the countryside...
Thinking like this, Liu Shengsheng finally slipped out of the palace again.
Soon she came to Jun again.
But they found that the business there was extremely hot. After Liu Shengsheng entered, there wasn't even an empty seat.
"Miss Sen'er, are you here?"
A waiter ran up to her with a smile. He was one of the beggars at first, but he didn't expect that he was now a respectable waiter.
Liu Shengsheng nodded, "Has A Qing come here?"
"Isn't he always here? He's been staying upstairs for the past few days. I'm going to ask him to come down."
"No, I'll go up myself."
After Liu Shengsheng finished speaking, she pulled on her cloak and then walked up to the second floor.
There is a long corridor on the second floor. The left hand side has been decorated with six or seven private seats, separated by screens. The right hand side has four or five guest rooms. According to Liu Shengsheng, Mu Qingqing usually stays in the corner room.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door opened from the inside.
Seeing Liu Shengsheng, Mu Qingqing was startled, "Princess..."
"You should still call me Sen'er as before."
Liu Shengsheng walked into the room and found a seat to sit down. "I thought you really went back to the countryside."
Mu Qingqing scratched his head, "I grew up in the capital city since I was a child. I only talked nonsense about going to the countryside. Now this tavern is doing very well and I already plan to stay here in the future."
Liu Shengsheng frowned, "After all, you are also the daughter of the Marquis, and you only drove this for fun..."
"My father is dead, how can I still be considered a rich man?"
Mu Qingqing smiled bitterly, "I used to like a free life. Now, maybe it's just another way of dreaming of coming true. It's good to stay here and be a shopkeeper. Besides, I've also thought about it. It’s clear, I will dress as a man every day from now on, so please remember to call me Ah Qing and don’t reveal my true identity.”
Liu Shengsheng looked at Mu Qingqing quietly. Perhaps because of his previous teachings, Mu Qingqing actually looked a bit like a man now that he was wearing men's clothes.
Just as he was about to say something more, there was a sudden sound on the roof.
Liu Shengsheng was startled, "Who is on the roof?"
