Chapter 280 Mu Heng's Life Story
Mu Heng lowered his eyes, first shook his head, and then nodded.
"That's it."
Jiang Yue then lowered her eyes and looked towards the rippling river, thinking of the pile of white bones.
Over the years, my third brother-in-law has been easygoing and carefree, but there is always a hint of coldness under his melancholy eyes.
Now, she has found the answer.
"Is that so?" Yue Tingshan became excited.
He looked at Mu Heng seriously.
"What's your name?"
"Your subordinate is Mu Heng."
"Mu Heng..." Yue Tingshan became dejected again. He was no longer his little nephew.
He continued, "Mu Heng? The former Mu Cishi also had the last name Mu."
Mu Heng shook his head, his fingertips trembling slightly, he just lowered his eyes and said nothing more.
Yue Tingshan didn't hear any response, so he continued to ask:
"So, do you know Mu Ci Shi?"
Yue Tingshan stared at Mu Heng, and became excited again.
The cloudy old eyes brightened up. "Tell me, is that right?"
Mu Heng didn't comment.
"What does it matter if I know him? What does it matter if I don't? He's been gone for so many years. Even if I know him, what's the point?"
"Of course it makes sense!" At this time, Zhang Yan walked in.
"In order to rescue the scattered soldiers, Envoy Mu Ci and his wife abandoned their son who was only eleven or twelve years old and personally led the then Northern Yan crown prince to our Donglin encirclement."
At that time, Zhang Yan was only eleven or twelve years old. All he knew was what the general said, and he only heard the general idea.
But he always felt that Mu Ci Shi should not be dead, but that was just what he thought.
"That's right." Xia Yuanchen walked closer.
As soon as he walked in, he looked towards Yue Tingshan.
"Back then, it was you who led the remaining soldiers and killed the Northern Yan prince at a critical moment. You also used his head to redeem our Donglin's five thousand soldiers."
He also heard about this from his father.
However, as time went by, countless soldiers were killed and wounded, and the events of the past were gradually forgotten.
After Yue Tingshan, the impression given to people is that he is useless.
When Yue Tingshan thinks about the past, the older he gets, the more emotional he becomes.
He looked at Mu Heng again.
"Are you Mu Congyuan's son?"
Mu Heng turned around and looked at the river without replying, then looked at Jiang Yue.
"Xiao Liu, will your third sister blame me?"
Jiang Yue shook her head: "Brother-in-law, why would Third Sister blame you? You are the son of a hero, she will only be proud of it."
When Yue Tingshan heard this, he was slightly stunned.
Jiang Yue and Mu Heng actually have this kind of relationship.
He was already very surprised to know that Jiang Yue and his fellow brothers were getting together.
Of course, he would find out later that Jiang Yue had two brothers-in-law in the Xuanwu Army.
Mu Heng: "I didn't tell her the truth."
He believes that couples should be honest with each other.
However, he has always chosen to forget that past.
Because, at the age of twelve, he had not experienced the sufferings of the world, nor did he know the dangers of the world.
All I know is that his parents don't want him anymore.
That day, his parents ruthlessly abandoned him among the refugees fleeing towards Linzhou, and then disappeared without a trace.
He went through a lot of hardships and finally found them.
But what I saw was a cruel and bloody scene.
He witnessed with his own eyes his parents being ruthlessly killed by the former crown prince of Northern Yan.
God knows how sad he was at that time.
Now, after experiencing the pain of war, seeing the people's bodies being torn to pieces, and witnessing the dangers of war,
He knew that what his parents did was right.
Perhaps he knew from the beginning that they were right. Ever since he joined the army, he was no longer conflicted.
Looking at Yue Tingshan again, he clasped his fists solemnly and said:
"General Yue, thank you for avenging them!"
Yue Tingshan couldn't control his emotions and his eyes turned red.
"Child, you have suffered a lot over the years."
Mu Heng: "Compared to the soldiers at the border, my suffering is nothing."
"Child, you must be missing home. I will take you to Liangzhou City. Your home is still there." Yue Tingshan said as he was about to go with him.
However, Mu Heng had no intention of going home.
"Thank you for your kindness, General Yue, but I'd rather not use it." What's the point of a home without my parents?
In fact, he chose to escape.
"Well." Yue Tingshan respected Mu Heng's choice.
However, he missed his little nephew more and more.
……
On the way back,
Because Mu Heng's identity was exposed, everyone felt both sad and happy.
More than that, I am happy.
Zhang Yan and Xia Yuanchen just thought that this was too coincidental. Mu Heng unexpectedly became Jiang Yue's brother-in-law.
Yue Tingshan's eyes were fixed on Mu Heng the whole time, which made Mu Heng feel a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Yue and Mu Heng walked at the end.
Jiang Yue didn't expect that her third brother-in-law had such a miserable life. Thinking that her third sister was such a kind person, she didn't know what would happen if she knew about it.
"Xiao Liu, you seem unhappy knowing my situation." Mu Heng said deliberately when he saw Jiang Yue had a frown on her face.
"Yes, I'm unhappy." Jiang Yue felt heavy-hearted because of what her third brother-in-law had experienced.
Mu Heng was a low-key person and didn't want to talk about his life experience anymore, so he changed the subject.
"I heard that Xiaoliu performed a great deed yesterday. I wanted to look for you yesterday, but I was afraid to disturb you. Are you not injured again?"
"It's okay." Jiang Yue replied.
"Where's my third brother-in-law? Is he feeling unwell?"
She knew that her three brothers-in-law were all seriously injured because they had joined forces to kill the enemy's deputy general.
"It's been fine for a long time." Mu Heng smiled indifferently.
"It's just a pity for your eldest brother-in-law and fourth brother-in-law. I'm afraid they will have to stay in bed for ten days to half a month."
Jiang Yue was helpless about this.
"Third brother-in-law, why did you say just now that you are from Liangzhou?"
"My family originally lived in the capital, but my father was exiled here." This is one of the reasons why Mu Heng never revealed his own life experience.
Jiang Yue was a little confused and didn't ask.
...In the days that follow,
Jiang Yue followed Yue Tingshan every day and began to improve his martial arts.
Yue Tingshan taught her spear skills in the first half of the day and light skills in the second half.
Jiang Yue was in great pain, but she felt fulfilled.
She also had to find time to manage her own army. The time she could squeeze out every day was very limited. She also did not forget to train the formation with her fellow brothers to ensure that it was perfect.
To the extent that, even if Jiang Yue wanted to talk more with her brothers-in-law and senior brothers, she was not allowed.
Two months passed like this, and the freezing cold weather was finally over.
In the past two months, Jiang Yue's skills have doubled again, and both his body and mind have been further improved.
Yue Tingshan enjoyed it very much, and one day he suddenly had an idea to compete with Jiang Yue and seven others in martial arts.
He wanted to see if he could escape unscathed from the seven-star formation set up by Jiang Yue and the others.
In the mountains and forests:
"Jiang Yue, today, let me see the power of your Seven Star Formation." Yue Tingshan looked at Jiang Yue with full energy.
"Master's skills are extraordinary. The seven of us brothers are no match for him. We admit defeat." Jiang Yue admitted defeat before the fight even started.
Let Yue Tingshan punch the cotton.
The most common thing he did all day was to chase Jiang Yue and ask for a competition.
As a result, Jiang Yue's lightness skill was improved invisibly.
Every time she was caught, she would still say the same words of surrender.
Yue Tingshan got angry like a child. He didn't want this little disciple anymore. Could he still give up?
At the same time, Ling Yunxiao had been waiting for news of Princess Xining's arrival, but he never got it.
I'm not that anxious...
...Two months later, in the early morning, Li Zhao, exhausted from the long journey, finally arrived back at the capital.
He only had time to change into court clothes and rush to the palace for an audience early in the morning.
To the east is the court, inside the main hall.
When His Majesty Donglin heard Li Zhao's speech in the palace, he was very pleased.
"General Ling is indeed very brave!"
