Breezy and rainy, all the flowers fell overnight, and the wine was about to wake up, Mu Tao turned over, only to find that he was covered with a peach-colored brocade quilt, which was completely different from the one he had draped before going to bed, and there was a faint tinge on it. Aroma of peach blossom.

She squinted her eyes, opened one secretly and looked around. Sure enough, Mu Ping was arranging flowers in front of the window. Every time after the rain, there were always dead branches and leaves, and the remaining flowers were missing. Mu Ping is an elegant person, and she can't see such sadness. Every time this happens, he picks up flowers and branches that can still be seen from the ground, and fills up his own room, so he comes to decorate Mu Tao's room.

"You, you are lucky if you wake up and don't hurry up. If you hadn't fallen asleep when the mansion was in a commotion just now, Daddy would definitely not let it go."

Mu Ping turned her face and looked at Mu Tao, who had a few creases on her left cheek, and couldn't help shaking her head, "I've said it several times, put a brocade handkerchief on the pillow, and when I wake up, my hair will be smooth and smooth, and my face won't be too dirty." Like you, it's ugly one by one."

She poked Mu Tao's face lightly with her fingers, and put the vase of flowers on the table, seemingly very satisfied.

"Who is here, I caused trouble?"

Mu Tao got up and rubbed her misty eyes. It looked bright outside the window, but it was the smell of mud after the rain mixed with the smell of rain. She stretched herself, put on her shoes, got out of bed and pushed the window, and rushed towards her. She couldn't help sneezing because of the cold air, and Mu Ping tied the cloak on the screen for her.

"Not you, who else?"

Mu Ping looked outside. Mu Zhanqing had already left the house, and Housekeeper Liu followed suit. The fallen leaves in the yard had been cleaned up, and it was refreshing and pleasant.

"I've been quiet recently. Really, I swear, I never caused trouble." Mu Tao quickly went through what he had done in his mind, and suddenly slapped his knee and screamed.

"No way, could it be that mangy dog?!"

"He has a name and a surname, so how can he become a mangy dog? No matter how poor he is, he is still the child of the prince's wet nurse. If you touch him, if someone with a heart finds out, he will inevitably think about it elsewhere. Daddy is the servant of the household department. , in the eyes of others, this is not your small fight, it can rise to the point of going against the prince, you have made daddy difficult."

"Sister, it's not because he's down and out, and it's not because I'm meddling in other people's business. I happened to meet Xiaocui, the maid who married from our mansion that day. The several acres of fertile land in the family was forced to be destroyed by that mangy dog... .”

Seeing Mu Ping glaring at her, Mu Tao quickly changed his words.

"Oh, it was taken over by Tian Shun. Xiaocui had a miserable life. She was sold to the mansion as a servant and married an honest man. In the end, the two of them lost their livelihood. Tian Shun not only took over their family There are fields and folks in the village, such people, how can the crown prince protect them?"

Mu Tao asked back, thinking of Tian Shun's face in his heart, he felt that the good mood of the day was gone.

"Okay, this time Daddy has dealt with it for you. I don't care whether you are a chivalrous man or fight against injustice. In short, don't get involved in such things in the future. If you offend him, you won't be able to get rid of him in the future. What's more, Once Xiao Cui gets married, she is no longer a member of our Mu family, so you don't have to worry about it."

What Mu Ping said was also reasonable, especially since she got up early, and heard Tian Shun and his mother crying and shouting at the gate of Mu's mansion through the courtyard wall. Well, reasoning alone is useless, trouble still needs money to relieve.

Although Mu Zhanqing was angry, he managed to persuade the prince's wet nurse, that wicked woman well-known in the countryside, away.

Mu Ping didn't want to reminisce about the smug expressions of the two when they left, she just felt that Mu Tao had brought unnecessary troubles to the manor, in her opinion, these things could be avoided, so she decided not to touch them.

The provocation of self-declination is useless.

Because of this matter, Mu Zhanqing and Mu Tao got into a quarrel. It happened that Jiang Huaigu was a guest in Mu's house. When he was leaving, Mu Zhanqing asked him to take Mu Tao to Xuantian Cliff to think about his mistakes.

Even though his heart was cheering for a long time, Mu Tao still pretended to be pitiful, as if going to Xuantian Cliff was really an uncomfortable chore.

Until the master and apprentice got on the horse and left the Mu Mansion far away, Mu Tao finally started talking and laughing with Jiang Huaigu.

"Mu Tao, did you meet anyone at Xuantian Cliff last time?"

When the two reached the foot of the mountain, they couldn't help slowing down the reins. The seemingly casual question immediately aroused Mu Tao's grief and indignation. How could she easily forget the experience of being a cow.

"Don't mention it, when you meet a cripple, it's still a cripple who is conceited and lofty."

Jiang Huaigu's heart skipped a beat. No wonder Chu Xiao hadn't contacted him for many days, and the relationship fell apart.

As soon as he got up to Xuantian Cliff, Mu Tao didn't have time to speak to Jiang Huaigu, the man's face suddenly changed, and after a few words, he straddled his horse and galloped away.

"Mu Tao, wait for enough time and go down the mountain by yourself."

"understood."

But Jiang Huaigu didn't go straight down. He rode his horse around a few times and turned his head from a small path into a densely grassed cave. If he hadn't pushed aside that place, he wouldn't have seen such a strange place at all. There is also such a trick.

There were signs of fighting near the entrance of the cave. Judging from the situation, he should have been injured. The blood stains did not disappear until the entrance of the cave.

He held his breath and refreshed himself, the sword in his hand slid across the stone wall gently, erasing the golden fire light, ordinary people may not notice anything, but if someone with kung fu heard this sound, he might feel a splitting headache.

There was no reply, Jiang Huaigu was a little relieved, and continued to walk into the cave.

Going around the winding path, the last hole is a circular open place, with a huge stone in the center, and a sarcophagus on it.

Jiang Huaigu walked around the sarcophagus for a week. After confirming that there was no difference, he went to the rear to continue checking. It seemed that those people did not come in.

It's just that, no matter what, these few days, I can't be careless.

Mu Tao stared at the wall for a long time. Jiang Huaigu engraved the new move on it, but it was a bit cumbersome and she couldn't understand it. She made gestures with her hand a few times, and just about to whip the whip, she suddenly heard the sound of staggering footsteps outside.

She has very good hearing, so she quickly hid behind the stone and waited quietly.

Recently, Xuantianya seems to be very restless.

A man in gray-blue clothes broke in, holding a sword in his right hand, and while walking, he struck the ground several times. It seemed that he was seriously injured. If so, the man guarded his chest very vigilantly as soon as he entered the entrance. , asked sharply.

"who?"

The momentum is mighty, and her martial arts are above hers, even if she is injured, Mu Tao knows that she may not be his opponent, so she yelled in a very timely manner.

"your people!"

As he spoke, he walked out from behind the stone, his brows furrowed tightly. After seeing that the man opposite was a girl, his heart suddenly relaxed. He couldn't hold on any longer, and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Scared to death by me?"

Mu Tao hurried forward, poked his fingers down, and just about to touch his nose, he suddenly clasped his hands tightly.

"help me!"

After finishing speaking, his head remained motionless, only the bottom of his nose was left to vent his breath.

Mu Tao thought to himself, he really is a life-saving person.

Looking at his appearance, his bones are clear and strange, and his whole body is tall and straight. He is also an outstanding person. If he is saved, he may be able to accomplish something beautiful.

Jiang Huaigu often told her that opportunities are hers to grasp, especially her future husband-in-law, who has to fight for them by herself.

Thinking of this, Mu Tao's heart of saving sentient beings became more and more excited.

Before Chu Xiao left last time, he left a lot of golden sore medicines, which are very important to martial arts practitioners, so even if he was angry with him, Mu Tao still kept these medicines well, and this time, they finally came in handy.

Because of the excessive blood loss, the man's face was pale and ashamed. Looking at the blood outside, it was not clear where he was injured. Mu Tao didn't care so much, so he stripped his clothes off.

The sword marks on it were shocking. If the wound on his chest hadn't been off by a few inches, this man might not have survived.

Mu Tao sprayed Jiang Huaigu's wine all over him, and then applied golden sore medicine, untied his shirt, tore a few rags out, tied the man tightly, and finally he was done.

The first thing the patient did when he woke up was to eat. Mu Tao hurriedly took out Jiang Huaigu's set of eating guys. The pots and pans were clanging, but the person next to him remained motionless.

After finally making do with a pot of porridge, the sky has already darkened.

Mu Tao lay beside the stone, staring at this person carefully, with raised brows, straight nose, stern face, slightly pursed mouth, about the same age as himself, presumably never married.

Saving his life, there should always be something in return. Jiang Huaigu used to say that most of the children in the world have nothing to repay for their pride, and they can only be promised by their bodies. She should reciprocate with him.

Thinking of this, Mu Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, it's not bad, a cripple ran away, and another wounded came, probably this is his bumpy road to find a husband.

Halfway through thinking about the good thing, the man suddenly murmured, unable to hear what he was saying, Mu Tao put his ear close to him, but the man held his hand tightly.

This time I heard it clearly, Mu Tao's excitement was beyond words.

He was saying, "Little Fairy."

Since she was a child, it was the first time someone called her a fairy. It was no wonder that Mu Tao was not excited. Instead, she held the man's hand and spoke scorchingly.

"Don't worry, this fairy is here, and I will keep you safe."

The man rolled his eyes, but he didn't wake up after all.
