Found a loyal dog

Chapter 40

Li Wanjun's words completely overturned Murong's previous understanding of the three protagonists. In fact, thinking about the reason, it is not completely clueless. Perhaps it is because of the butterfly effect caused by her time travel, which changed the original development track.

Now that we have decided to be together, we must tolerate each other's past. Murong is not the kind of person who would hold on to his lover's previous relationship, but he heard that Zhong Lijin and Li Wanjun did not have the kind of life-and-death love described in the book. , I was still a little happy in my heart.

Li Wanjun: "It's getting late, let's go back."

"Wait," Murong remembered something, "I want to go in and have a look."

Murong didn't know how to do light work, so Li Wanjun took her to fly over the high wall and entered. After landing, Murong said: "I think it's okay to walk alone?"

"Okay," Li Wanjun immediately agreed. It's not easy for an outsider to participate in this moment of reminiscing about the past. "I'll go outside to watch the horses and watch the wind. Don't delay too long. Call me when I'm done and I'll come in and take you out." "After Yang's family was ransacked and beheaded, this area became a deserted city, although there were almost no traffic, but we can't take it lightly.

Murong nodded, expressing his understanding.

The Yang family's mansion has been abandoned for many years, and weeds grow on both sides of the path, so wild and dense that it almost covers the path.Murong walked carefully on the cobblestone road for a while, and the living room was on the way. Murong vaguely remembered that the book mentioned that the back of the living room was the master bedroom, and next to the master bedroom was Yang Hanyun's room.

When he first traveled through time, Mu Shao held a key tightly in his hand, which should have been given to Mu Shao by Yang Hanyun before he died. As for the small box matching the key, it was probably handed over by Yang Hanyun out of some consideration. Hiding at home.

Of course, everything is just her guess, and it may be hidden elsewhere.

There was a layer of dust in the room, Murong covered her mouth and nose and rummaged around in the room, she had an intuition that the things in the box were very important, maybe even life-threatening.However, after searching around, she found nothing. She even touched the walls all over, thinking that there would be a secret room or something.

Murong sat down on the stool in front of the dressing table, panting slightly from exhaustion.

It's fine if you can't find it, it's a big deal to come back later, she has to gather with Li Wanjun now.Murong's gaze casually landed on the jewelry box in front of him. It was an ordinary wooden box, about two fingers long, probably accidentally touched by the swords of officers and soldiers during the raid. The box was lying on its side on the dressing table, the lid They were all opened, and the earrings in the shape of golden clouds scattered out.

This should be the jewelry given by the emperor when Yang Hanyun got married, right?Murong picked up the jewelry box, opened it, and took a closer look. Sure enough, as she expected, there were not only earrings, but also bracelets and necklaces engraved with golden cloud patterns.

But shouldn't this kind of meaningful jewelry be placed in Zhongli Jin's mansion?After all, it was a wedding gift from the first emperor, and Yang Hanyun stayed at Zhonglijin's mansion after she got married.

With a strong premonition in Murong's heart, he lifted the red fine velvet cloth at the bottom of the box. There was an extremely tiny protrusion on the bottom edge. Murong used his fingernails to push it aside. It turned out to be a trap, and there was a layer of space underneath. There is a locked square iron box.

It was dark when Murong came home, Mu Xiong reheated the cold food for her and brought it to the table.

Murong kissed Mu Xiong, and praised: "We Xiong Xiong are so virtuous! We can cook!"

"Eat well." Mu Xiong wiped off the oily lip marks on his cheeks with disgust, but his tone was extremely gentle, "How do you know that I cooked this meal?"

Murong smiled meanly, and said love words easily: "Because there is a smell of love in it."

Wang Qi cooks with little salt, and the dishes taste very bland, but this time the dishes are not only very salty, but the vegetables are also fried. The taste is hard to describe, and it is hard for Wang Qi and Mu Shao to eat it.

Mu Xiongming knew that she was coaxing him, but he still couldn't restrain his little joy in his heart: "Nonsense, why didn't I eat it?"

Murong had two shredded potatoes in his mouth, half of his tongue stuck out, he deliberately stretched his neck and said: "Who says there is no, if you don't believe me, come and taste it."

Murong's tongue was pink and tender, Mu Xiong's eyes deepened, he immediately pressed Murong's chin and kissed it.

The potato shreds were tossed into pieces, and in the end, it was not known who got them.

The atmosphere was harmonious, Mu Xiong carefully asked: "That person asked you out, what did you say?"

Murong took the opportunity to tell her about Li Wanjun's entrustment to her: "Li Wanjun's mother offended the emperor, and she will be sentenced to death by the emperor in three days. You can go to the palace when you get out of the bodyguard tomorrow. For the sake of your childhood sweethearts, we will replace you Li Wanjun begged for mercy and spared his mother's life."

This sentence contains too much information, and Mu Xiong was stunned for a moment. With Murong's firm tone, does Murong already know that she is General Zhong Lijin?

who told herLi Wanjun?

How should she react?Should he answer "yes" directly, or pretend that he is not Zhong Lijin and ask "what are you talking about"?

If he admits it, will Murong alienate her because he cares about her past and regret dating her?

Mu Xiong's mind was in a mess, pulling all kinds of thoughts back and forth, but he couldn't say a word.

Murong sighed, patted Mu Xiong's cheek with both hands, rubbed it and then pulled it over: "Look at me, don't think too much."

Mu Xiong's mouth was pouting because of her squeeze, and Murong looked at her seriously: "It's one thing for me to know, but it's another thing for you to tell me. In fact, I've been waiting for you to take the initiative to confess to me, like You will be tolerant, you must have confidence in me, and you must also have confidence in yourself."

Murong's mouth was full of greasy food, her serious expression didn't suit her at all, it looked a little funny, but it was extremely warm, Mu Xiong wanted to laugh and cry: "I am... Zhong Lijin, General Zhong Lijin."

She paused, then raised her hand to cover Murong's hand on her cheek: "I'm sorry I kept it from you."

"It doesn't matter, I'm so smart, even if you didn't tell me, I would have already guessed it." Murong said, "Then you remember to go to the palace tomorrow. If you don't have enough time, you can stay in the palace for one night and then come back."

Mu Xiong wrapped her hand in his palm: "Okay."

Murong twitched: "Let go. You're holding me, I don't even have hands to eat."

Mu Xiong held on tighter: "Don't let go."

Murong put the bowl and chopsticks in front of Mu Xiong, and Ge You slumped on the back of the chair: "Then feed me."

Mu Xiong: "Your right hand is still free."

Murong closed his eyes to play tricks: "I can't see."

"You're so lazy." Murong heard the complaint from the other side, and then there was the feeling of rice touching his lips, Murong opened his mouth to eat, and secretly lifted his eyelids, the upward curve of Mu Xiong's mouth could be hooked .

Hmph, this boring bear.

Murong closed his eyes again and couldn't help laughing.
