"I suddenly thought of a brilliant idea. Since I am a heretic, why not do something that a heretic should do..." Mulo looked at his palms with a smile and said: "The three parties are attacking the city and occupying the territory. How can I stay out of it, Egret? I trust you, so I’m saying this in front of you. If you want to quit, you still have time.”
Egret half-knelt in front of Mu Luo and said, "If Master wants it, Egret should dedicate himself to it... But what does Master want from this city?"
Mulo looked at the rising morning glow boredly and said, "Nothing, I just want He Chaosheng to experience... what it's like to be a prisoner..."
"The egret will accompany you."
-Three days later-
In the teahouse at the downtown entrance, the things discussed by the vendors have already changed from the war situation at the border to Murong Yin...
"Have you heard? Murong Yin handed over the governance of the city to a woman. It seems that he even gave her the seal of the main city..."
"Oh, how could I not have heard about such a big thing? Just today... that woman is going to the Dongfang Mansion as a guest. The visitor is not a good person."
"Dongfang Ying is not someone to be trifled with. I heard that she has set up a Hongmen Banquet and is waiting for that woman to dance... Hiss... I remember that the woman's name seems to be Mulo. She is a strange person and has a strange name."
Everyone was talking to each other, but most of them were just casual chats after dinner. After all, whoever is the city lord is not very different from them. After all, their prices and taxes are determined by Tianshu.
In front of the Dongfang Mansion, Mulo wore a gauze hat to cover her face, and a navy blue brocade robe wrapped around her graceful waist. Anyone would think that she must be a stunning beauty. However, under the veil, It's a face covered in scars.
Egret gently supported her, it was just the master and servant.
In front of the gate of Dongfang Mansion, Dongfang Ying was wearing light armor and her long hair was tied up. Although she was a woman, she had some heroic spirit as a general.
"Miss Mu, I've been waiting for a long time." Dongfang Ying cupped her hands and said, "Today I sent more than a dozen letters to Brother Murong, but there was no reply. It seems... he is very busy, and he is so busy with the work at hand. Leave it all to a yellow-haired girl!"
Mu Luo walked towards the depths of the mansion with his steps: "Ming people don't tell secrets. I know I am worried about Murong Yin. Don't worry, I am seeking power and not killing myself. He is alive and well. Oriental girl can do it." rest assured."
"You really dare to say it blatantly." Dongfang Ying couldn't help but tighten the sword at her waist and said: "Although the general of Suzaku City has left, this power... is not something you can seek."
Mulo stepped onto the steps, looked back slightly and said, "I haven't eaten lunch yet, where is the banquet?"
Before Dongfang Ying said anything, the maid beside him started shouting, "You guys, do you know the consequences of being rude in front of the head of the Dongfang family!"
"Master Dongfang is good at teaching his servants." Mulo glanced at the maid and said with a smile, "If I don't join Yan, where will you use all the skills you have prepared?"
Dongfang Ying glared at the maid and said, "Back off."
Following the guards of Dongfang Mansion, they arrived at the banquet place, a spacious and bright hall with a table. Dongfang Ying walked up directly, while Mulo was placed in an inconspicuous corner.
She chuckled lightly, did not speak, but walked straight to the main seat and sat next to Dongfang Ying.
"Girl Dongfang, I'm here...to talk to you about something. You can't hear anything I say in that corner of the corner, and the place beside you is covered with stains. I can only sit here after all. ”
Mulo picked up the wine glass in front of Dongfang Ying, put it back in her veil and drank it in one gulp. Finally, she wiped her mouth and said, "Well, Dongfang girl's wine is indeed sweet, is there any more?"
"Come here, serve the wine." Dongfang Ying didn't seem to expect that the first sip Muro took made her cup and the poisonous wine prepared on the small table useless.
The person who brought the wine was also an old acquaintance. Linglong from the Wind Pavilion appeared here, which still surprised Muro.
Egret stood beside Mu Luo. He was about to step forward to block Linglong, but was stopped by Mu Luo.
Mulo calmly fiddled with the wine glass in front of him and said, "The wine is fragrant. I can't drink it alone. Miss Linglong and I are old acquaintances. I respect you for that glass of wine."
Dongfang Ying was stunned. She didn't expect Linglong to have met Mu Luo...
Linglong obviously lost her temper. She pulled out the dagger from under the wine tray and stabbed Muro directly.
Mulo didn't move, and the egret pulled out a needle from the hairpin and flew it out with a snap of her fingers, knocking the dagger out of Linglong's hand.
"Okay!" Mulo said while clapping his hands, "This is not much better than singing and dancing."
Not giving up, Linglong drew out the soft sword from her waist and rushed over. Egret did not block her. Mulo stretched out his left hand and directly grabbed the edge of the soft sword. The blade cut through the palm of his hand, and the mimicry of his arm disappeared. For a moment.
Everyone saw it clearly and stood up to hide away, shouting: "Heretic! She is a heretic!! Run!!"
Dongfang Ying glared at Linglong, gritted her teeth and said, "Why don't you say she is a heretic! Linglong! What do you have in mind!"
"I said...do you still have the courage to kill her? You cowards are all afraid!" Linglong held the soft sword tightly and said: "I'm not afraid! The General has never brought anyone to see me, nor has he ever brought anyone to see me. You...played that kind of scene with me...I've had enough! I want her to die!"
Mulo tightened his fingers slightly, and the soft sword turned into pieces.
Mu Luo rushed towards Dongfang Ying, stretched out his hand to strangle her neck, and said: "My arms are made of machinery. Theoretically, she can easily crush a piece of marble. I don't think there is anything wrong with crushing your neck." Question, so...I want you to listen to me carefully."
Egret quickly controlled Linglong with quick eyes and hands. There were guards guarding the outside, and other people at the banquet couldn't get out, so they could only try their best to hide in the corner.
"Oh, I thought you had some clever tricks up your sleeve. My life is worthless. Take it if you want!" Dongfang Ying is a proud and self-sufficient girl. It's a pity that she is young and lacks some heat. She felt that she could solve everything by herself, and it would just mean death.
Part of the gauze fell on Dongfang Ying's face, and Mu Luo's tone suddenly became much gentler, saying: "The Dongfang family is full of loyal people, so naturally I will not be stupid enough to use your name to force you to hand over your power, but... I This person heard something about how you fell in love with Murong Yin when you were young, and for more than ten years now, it can be said that you have been infatuated..."
"How dare you touch him!!"
"Why don't I dare? I don't have any other advantages. I must be ruthless." Muro gently touched Dongfang Ying's face and said, "Your brother Murong's life is in your hands. Within the incense stick, if I don’t see the jade pendant of the main city and the official document handing over power, I will cut off your brother Murong’s head to show to the public.”
