After hearing the news that Murong Jing was leaving temporarily, Huai Fenghua and Wang Yeqing expressed their understanding after being surprised.
Mu Qing originally planned to ask Shaoyao and Ning Chu to go back with Murong Jing, but he did not expect that this suggestion was not only rejected by Huaifenghua, but also Murong Jing did not agree.
At dawn in autumn, a layer of hoarfrost has already hung on the roadside on the outskirts of the city. The two girls, Huaifenghua, consciously gave up their space to Mu Qing and Murong Jing.
Murong Jing tidied Mu Qing's robe, and said with some reluctance: "You must remember what you promised me last night, and you will never show off like you did last time. Do you understand?"
Mu Qing stood in front of Murong Jing, the white breath of the two of them blended into a clear mist in front of each other's cheeks, and said: "Don't worry, Bai Hao is dead, and my memory of this city is far less than The world in Tiannan is so deep that you will definitely run away when you should. As for you, what happened in that forbidden area that requires you to go back? Remember to be more cautious, I think that old guy Murong Yin has bad intentions."
Murong Jing smiled and said: "Didn't the old man ask Xuanwu to come? Maybe he is not as bad as you think."
"I hope so." Mu Qing nodded.
One of the two raised his face, the other lowered his eyebrows, and their eyes met.
In fact, what should be said was already made clear last night. No matter how redundant it is at this time, it is just because of the unspeakable reluctance...
Murong Jing suddenly smiled, patted Mu Qing's arm and said, "Then I'm leaving."
On the way back to the city, Mu Qing looked at the two girls and said, "Chen Zhuo is right. Murong Yin may treat us as abandoned children, so we have to make plans early. Since Shaoyao and the others don't want to return to Wanhua Valley for the time being, they may have to If you feel sorry for them, go back to Uncle Yuan."
Huaifenghua nodded and said, "I will arrange these."
Mu Qing looked at the calmness on the faces of the two women and didn't know what to say.
Huaifenghua asked: "Do you think we are too calm?"
Mu Qing said: "I thought you would be angry with her, but auntie, you must believe that I really asked her to leave."
"Don't worry, I understand the truth." Huaifenghua did not dwell on the matter.
Murong Jing was not a woman without her own opinions. After Huaifenghua learned the news, she guessed that when Murong Jing went back this time, she might directly talk about her relationship with Mu Qing.
But maybe it was Mu Qing's determination to face everything that gave them a lot of confidence, so Huaifenghua clearly guessed what Murong Jing would do after returning, and did not interfere. Instead, she looked down upon the coming storm. Easy and freehand.
Wang Yeqing said at this time: "Don't put any hope in unreliable places. Here in Hidden Valley, we will consider the worst case scenario."
Mu Qing nodded and said: "Although Cao Jin is highly valued by Emperor Bai, he probably can't change Emperor Bai's decision. Maybe we really have to be ready to leave Suzaku City at any time."
Wang Yeqing raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why are you so anxious? I think the fat man's suggestion is very good. If Murong Yin takes action against us, it is not impossible for us to contact this side openly."
Huaifenghua suddenly glanced at Wang Yeqing, hesitated for a moment and asked: "Sister Wang, did you say something to Murong Jing?"
Wang Yeqing was stunned and said with a smile: "Like you, I didn't do anything. I respect whatever decision she and Mu Qing make. I believe no one can influence their decision."
Huaifenghua nodded.
Now it was Mu Qing's turn to be confused. Wang Yeqing explained meaningfully, "This is how troubled times are. Everyone is a chess piece and everyone is a chess player. Some chess players are not afraid that others will know their secrets." Thoughts, like you and Murong Yin, but there are also some people like me, who are just following the situation and taking a step that is beneficial to everyone."
In Wang Yeqing's judgment, Murong Yin's recall of Murong Jing not only protects Murong Jing's safety, but also separates Murong Jing and Mu Qing. This is an obvious matter. This is actually Murong Yin's honest expression. This shows his attitude - he will not support the two of them being together.
I don’t know whether Murong Yin underestimated the relationship between Murong Jing and Mu Qing, or whether Murong Yin felt that he could control Murong Jing. In short, such a distance separation not only prevented the relationship between Mu Qing and Murong Jing from being severed, but also the final As a result, conflicts must break out, that is, the conflict between Murong Jing and Murong Yin, and the conflict between Murong Yin and Mu Qing.
When this conflict breaks out, Mu Qing can leave Hidden Valley openly, and Murong Jing...
Thinking of this, Wang Yeqing also understood why Huaifenghua asked like that, because even though she didn't say anything, she was planning on Murong Jing after all.
What about Murong Jing? Although she has only tasted love at this age, does she really no longer have the insight into the world that she had in the past? Maybe Murong Jing doesn't want to delay any longer and wants to get to know some people and things earlier...
Wang Yeqing was lost in thought and only came to his senses when he reached the tall city wall.
Murong Jing left early, and the four of them climbed over the wall to get out. Naturally, they had to climb over the wall to get in at this time.
The three of them found the nearest breakfast shop. As soon as they sat down, they caught the attention of the people who had gathered in a group. Who knew who murmured something in the crowd, and everyone immediately turned into birds and beasts and dispersed, leaving them alone to take risks. The owner of the stall was disheveled in the cold wind.
Wang Yeqing gave the boss an ingot of ten taels of silver without asking for it, which made up for the boss's loss. She sipped the steaming white porridge in small sips and asked: "Mu Qing, did you hear what they just said? What's the word?"
Mu Qing replied: "Killer."
Wang Yeqing nodded and said softly: "It seems that some people have started to promote us. They may have heard some rumors. They want to give you a blow before you become the city lord. What are you going to do?"
Mu Qing guessed that the people Wang Yeqing was talking about were the local forces in Suzaku City. He shook his head and said, "They can't affect me. I don't plan to do anything. Besides, I'm not the city lord."
Wang Yeqing smiled bitterly and said: "Even if you are not the city lord, you need to understand that even if you are a person who has no power to restrain a chicken, if there are too many people who are complicit in the crime, you will not only be a bad person, but also a bad person. People's words are terrible. Maybe you don't feel that now. , but if you hear too much and see too much, you will eventually be affected subtly."
Mu Qing thought carefully for a while and felt that what Wang Yeqing said made sense, but he was still a little unclear, so he simply asked: "What does Mrs. Wang want to tell me?"
Wang Yeqing put down the porridge bowl and replied seriously: "I'm just talking about a small thing in the secular world that affects my mood, but some things in the spiritual world are even more disgusting. Your character is still too kind. In the future, I hope you can be more Be more decisive and ruthless. Even if you are not targeting these ignorant people who listen to the wind, you must clearly let Chen Zhuo hear your feelings. In this way, there will be fewer temptations, and the small episodes you will encounter in the future will be less. It will be less.”
Mu Qing nodded. Wang Yeqing was clearly talking about knowledge in dealing with things, but Mu Qing heard the sound of wind and rain brewing through the clouds in her voice.
It turned out that they were not as calm as they appeared, but they stood firmly with themselves.
Mu Qing thought this in his heart, and the lines of his whole body became sharper.
