Chapter 30 Plucking the Thorn

That night, in order to celebrate the success of this test, Mu Kezhai held another banquet. In order to make the people in the village more casual, the Mu family did not attend the banquet, but held another family banquet in Jinguiyuan. As for hosting the banquet, it is up to Mugua.

In Jinguiyuan, Mu Tianwang's family of five sat around the spacious living room. Jin Ping, Yinping sisters, Baoer, and Mu Guiying rushed to Zhongwu Hall to join the fun. Therefore, the five Mu Tianwang talked and laughed casually, which was so lively. Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Mu Tianwang said his previous thoughts.

"Dalang, Erlang, Gui Ying, you have all grown up. Mu Kezhai has been handed over to Gui Ying, and his father saw that Gui Ying managed it well. Therefore, my father and mother also left at ease. Mu Tianwang said this, but Mu Guiying's brother and sister were shocked.

The three were about to get up when Zhong Erniang said quickly, "Don't worry, it's your father who didn't make it clear. Your father means that he wants to take his mother out to visit friends.

Mu Guiying quickly patted his chest, but Mu Tong and Mu Tie took a long breath. Then, Mu Guiying immediately ran between Mu Tianwang and Zhong Erniang, took their arms, shook their heads, and said delicately, "Dad, you almost scared Guiying. However, taking your mother to visit relatives and friends, you are really a good husband and son-in-law, and your daughter supports you.

Mu Guiying said so, and Mu Tong and Mu Tie remembered. Since the two brothers remembered, their mother Zhong Erniang did not seem to have left Mu Kezhai. Now King Mu wants to take Zhong Erniang out to visit friends, which is a happy event for Zhong Erniang. Mu Tong and Mu Tie can't see the 'performance' of their parents who love each other.

So, the family banquet ended in warmth. When Mu Tianwang and Zhong Erniang left 'Jinguiyuan', they told the three brothers and sisters to have a good rest, and the two brothers had to take good care of and help their sisters before leaving. It was not until the next morning, when Mu Guiying and the other three got up to say goodbye to Mu Tianwang and his wife, they found that they had left Mu Kezhai.

Mu Guiying's three brothers and sisters were a little sad at first, but they left the room of Mu Tianwang and Zhong Erniang, and Mu Guiying focused all their attention on the affairs of Mu Kezhai. Since Mu Tong found some people with different intentions in Mukezhai, Mu Guiying did not take any measures, but let close people secretly stare at these people. Mu Guiying was also afraid that she would look away. After Mugua came back, she asked Mugua to investigate.

After Mu Gua gave Mu Guiying the information, he said with a shame, "It seems that I'm old. These people have been in Mukezhai for so many years."

"Uncle Gua, it's not your fault. Dad handed over all the big and small affairs of Mu Kezhai to you. You are too busy at all, and it is inevitable to make mistakes. Mu Guiying heard that Mu Gua was actually frustrated and quickly put down the matter in her hand.

At the same time, Mu Guiying also wink at Jin Ping and Yin Ping before pulling Mu Gua's arm and acting coquettishly: "Uncle Gua, Gui Ying is not very familiar with Mu Kezhai's affairs. If Uncle Gua doesn't help Gui Ying, no one will help me. Does Uncle Gua have the heart to look at Gui Ying at a young age and look sad?

"That's right, godfather, Sister Ying is so young, and the Heavenly King is not in the village. If the adoptive father doesn't care about anything, those in the village can't bully Yingjie..." Jin Ping and Yin Ping also followed Mugua. It was not until Baoer didn't know anything, but also came to persuade her that Mugua smiled.

Thinking of Mu Tianwang's kindness to him, the respect of Mu Guiying's brother and sister for him, and the two intimate righteous daughters, Mu Gua quickly sorted out his mood. Thinking of the 'fine works' hidden for many years in Mu Kezhai, Mu Gua's eyes flashed fiercely, and his tone was also indifferent: "Sister Ying, just leave these people to Uncle Gua to deal with. It seems that they all forgot how Mu Kezhai became famous in those years.

"Gua..." Mu Guiying listened to Mu Gua's tone, and immediately felt a thrill in her heart, and a chill came out of her heart. In an instant, the scene that Mu Guiying was least willing to recall also appeared in front of her.

After Mu Guiying returned to Mukezhai, what happened in the woods had been pressed hard by her heart. Because she doesn't know how to solve it, she doesn't want to think about it anymore. But the smell of blood in Mugua's tone evoked this memory. Just as Mu Guiying hesitated to ask Mugua what he wanted to do with these people, Mugua had already gone out.

Looking at Mu Gua's distant back, Mu Guiying wanted to stop him and ask him not to hurt people's lives. But since Mu Guiying grew up in the cottage, she has been very clear that in the cottage, things are not bloody, and others will not be afraid. To reason with them is to play the piano to the cow and talk to them about force, which is the final solution.

Mu Guiying, who has the memory of her previous life, attaches great importance to the value of life, which is also Mu Guiying has been unable to untie. Mu Guiying's heart was particularly sad to think that if he went to the battlefield in the future, more lives would disappear into his own hands.

Maybe she saw that Mu Guiying's face was a little wrong. When Jin Ping saw Mu Guiying stay in the chair, she came over and whispered, "Sister Ying, are you all right?"

Ah, it's okay. Maybe I've been in the room for a long time and I'm a little depressed. I'll go for a walk in the courtyard. Mu Guiying came to her senses and felt that she should relax and walked out of the study.

Jin Ping looked at Mu Guiying in a trance and was a little worried. Jin Ping is one year older than Mu Guiying and sensible. Among the various performances after Mu Guiying came out of the woods, Jin Ping guessed that Mu Guiying might have encountered something. Otherwise, Mu Guiying would not be in a daze sometimes. However, if Mu Guiying doesn't say anything, Jin Ping won't ask, let alone tell others, including her sister Yin Ping. Jin Ping knew that the only thing she could do was to stay with Mu Guiying as much as possible.

"Jin Ping, Jin Ping, come on, it's snowing..." Jin Ping was thinking about something, but Mu Guiying shouted at her outside. Listening to Mu Guiying's return to her usual tone, Jin Ping was also much more relaxed and quickly walked out of the room with a smile on her face.

While Mu Guiying was enjoying the snow in Jinguiyuan, Mugua, with Mu Tong and Mu Tie brothers, also began to prepare. Although Mugua is happy all day now, he seems to be very easy-going. When Mukezhai was first built, Mugua was also a fierce role. Otherwise, how can he become Mu Tianwang's most powerful help and trusted brother?

When the two brothers Mu Tong and Mu Tie saw the rigorous look on Mu Gua's face and the fierceness of their whole body, they reacquainted the 'uncle' who watched them grow up. At the same time, the two brothers understood why their father Mu Tianwang and sister Mu Guiying always let them follow Mugua.

"Uncle Gua, what do you think should be done about this? Our brothers are all up to you." Mu Tong and Mu Tie both looked at Mugua with firm faces.

Mugua nodded, pointed to the names of those people, and said in a low voice, "Since this matter has been found, it must be solved as soon as possible. Late, they may implicate more villagers. And the most important thing is to catch them all without their knowledge..."

Making a plan, Mugua recruited some loyal people to Mu Kezhai to Mu Tianwang's study in order to discuss the rent collection. Then, they were divided into several groups and were responsible for arresting whom, so that everyone could disperse. Of course, Mu Tong and Mu Tie still follow Mugua.

No one knows that among these people who hide Mu Kezhai, there are no people with strong martial arts. In case of injury to Mu Tong and Mu Tie, not only can he not communicate to Mu Tianwang and his wife, but Mu Gua himself will also feel sorry.

After the dead of night, Mugua took Mu Tong, Mu Tie and others in the Zhongwu Hall. As soon as Haishi passed and Zishi arrived, the plan began to be implemented. In addition to Mugua and Mu Tong, there are eight people who judged in the competition in the Zhongwu Hall. These eight people are not only the 'olders' of Mu Kezhai, but also the executors of the rules of Mu Kezhai.

In the dim light in the hall, the time has come. Mu Tong and Mu Tie couldn't sit still and came to the gate and looked at the dark Mu Kezhai. Suddenly, the chickens and dogs barked in Mukezhai, and the lights soared into the sky. With the continuous ups and downs of shouts, a large group of black people came to Zhongwu Hall. Mu Tong and Mu Tie quickly returned to their positions to do it.

"I want to see King Mu. You want to eradicate dissidents while the King is away..."

"Why did you arrest me? I didn't break any rules..."

Eleven people were arrested this time. These eleven people were all tied back, but their mouths were full of chatter, saying that they were wronged and innocent. But when Mugua calmly threw the things in front of them, the eleven people were honest.

"Don't think that the cottage will frame people for no reason. These things in front of you have been carefully verified. Now there is nothing to say. Eight deacons, please enforce the village rules--" Mugua sneered at the eleven people kneeling on the ground and retreated aside.

"I announce..."

"Msman, I have something to say. If I were to say that I was a copycat, I also recognized it. But if I want to say that I am the 'fine work' of Liao, I don't recognize it. This is a great crime to exterminate the family. I still have a wife and children, but I can't afford it..."

Just when one of the eight people got up and said something. One of the people knelt down and crawled out. Mugua looked at this man and rescued Zhang Wu when he went out to work with Mu Tianwang. At the beginning, Zhang Wu was very embarrassed, like a beggar. If he hadn't said that he had escaped from the Liao soldiers, King Mu would not have taken him in.

Zhang Wu is still honest in the village, and he also married his wife and had children in the village. But Mugua never thought that Zhang Wu was actually a detailed work of Liao. Every time he went out to collect rent, he would talk to people in private. If Mu Guiying hadn't seen him deliberately lose to Yuan Cai during the test, she wouldn't have found him.

Mu Gua saw this person 'dead and still quibble', and he hated it even more. He just remembered to open his mouth and scold. Unexpectedly, the five suddenly broke the rope on his body and rushed out. At the same time, Mu Tong and Mu Tie also chased out. It's too underestimated to run away under your eyes. How can the two brothers let him go?

However, Zhang Wu's speed was so fast that he ran away when he saw it. At this moment, I saw an arrow flying over the heads of the two brothers, really rushing away...
