Chapter 183 Life Saving

After Min Erlang and Min Silang left, Mu Bichuan took Mu Biwei to the backyard and opened a room and sighed, "Dad has been worried since he returned to Ye. Even if he will be absent-minded, so although this other profession has been given, it has not been cleaned up much. Although this is a study, there is also a bed in the room. Dad I don't have the heart to read books here. No one has used the bed. The bedding on it are all new. Please take a rest for a moment.

Mu Biwei shook her head, took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to Mu Bichuan, saying, "This big brother takes it first."

"What is this?" Mu Bichuan took an estimate and knew that it was an empty bottle, and he didn't realize it.

"As Nie Yuansheng said, the poison in me is extremely powerful. Although Ah Shan is lighter, he is also worried about his life!" Speaking of this, Mu Biwei looked distressed and then continued, "At that time, the situation was critical. I was already in a coma. In order to save me, Nie Yuansheng would not be mistaken for having something to do with him, so he took me into Xiji Mountain and hid it in secret. He took this bottle of medicine for me. Although he didn't say it clearly, I think this medicine must be extremely precious. Although Nie Yuansheng is the eldest grandson of the Duke of Linyi County, on the one Hand, the title was not inherited by him. Second, his parents died early and he was raised by his uncle for several years. I don't think he may have much savings. I'm afraid this medicine is still left by Linyi County Office. ."

Speaking this, Mu Bichuan has understood what she means and nodded solemnly: "Nie Shilang has never had any grudge against our family. In the last court, thanks to his good words, I saved your life this time. I only have your direct sister. If I have a chance, I will definitely repay such a chance!"

Although Mu Biwei is also extremely grateful to Nie Yuansheng, she also knows that Nie Yuansheng is cunning, and her brother, whether his eldest brother or cousin, is much more loyal than Nie Yuansheng, but she doesn't want Mu Bichuan to be trapped by Nie Yuansheng because of this. She hurriedly said, "I have received this kindness. Naturally, I should repay it myself, big brother You don't have to worry too much..."

"What is this?" Mu Bichuan is a stubborn sex. Son, he has always loved his sister. Even if Mu Biwei has done something on his behalf, Mu Bichuan usually doesn't care about it, but what he has determined can't be violated. Just like the previous decision to propose marriage to the He family, he now scolded, "The kindness of humane water is still springing in return, not to mention the kindness of saving life?! What's more, isn't there no reason for you to save Nie Yuan's life? Dad is only one daughter, three generations of our pastoral family, and you are the only daughter. You entered the palace for me and my father. Even my grandmother in the family has felt extremely guilty about you. If something happens in the palace again, how can I deal with it? He saved you. If there is great kindness to my shepherd's family, even if my grandmother and father are here, they will definitely say so! It's one thing for you to repay yourself. Can we pretend that we don't know anything when we wait for you? Isn't this the way of being a man?"

Mu Biwei also knows the character of her eldest brother. She has been loved since she was a child and deliberately indulged by Min Rugai to develop arrogance and rudeness, so as not to dare to say anything in Xu's hands. The doting of the elders makes there are almost no one who dares to compete with her in the ordinary generation. Therefore, she has never been afraid of anything since childhood, but she has a headache. Bichuan's sex. Zi, now that he was really thinking about how to repay Nie Yuansheng, he suddenly regretted it and comforted himself. Since Nie Yuansheng took out the elixir to save himself, he would not want to harm Mu Bichuan.

also heard Mu Bichuan's sad words, "It's just that Nie Shilang's doing such chivalrous things, but we can't speak out. What's more, now he is a close minister of the emperor. Even though his father is the Qing capital Yin, his grade is far above it, but your majesty rarely attends, and political affairs are handled by the left and right prime ministers... But also There is no way to repay."

"Brother, it's better to let people find out the source of this medicine and try to return another bottle to Nie Yuansheng." Mu Bi coughed slightly and said, "I don't think there are too many such things."

"This medicine must be rare, but I hope we have this opportunity." Mu Bichuan solemnly put away the porcelain bottle and said, but his tone was quite confident. Mu Bi was slightly aware of it, and her heart moved slightly. Suddenly, she thought of what Fang Xianren said before, and then asked again, "Brother, how is the power of our shepherd family in the northwest?"

Mu Bichuan was shocked and said, "Why are you asking this?"

Only Mu Bichuan has always been qualified to know such things. As a girl, Mu Biwei should not ask. It's just that Mu Bichuan is ashamed of her and has always spoiled her, so she doesn't care.

"Before spring hunting, Fang Xianren of Jique Palace looked for me and mentioned to me about her sister Fang Danyan, a palace maid who used to serve in the empress dowager's palace. She said that she wanted to find a suitable marriage for Fang Danyan in the northwest. Although Fang Xianren and I were not enmity, before, Your Majesty was dissatisfied with the two blue clothes put by the Empress Dowager in the Xuanshi Hall and put them When he was driven away, he was stopped by Fang Xianren. At that time, Fang Xianren was very attacked. Mu Biwei said slightly, "The fact that the two blue clothes were expelled has something to do with me - the most important thing is that the Fang Xianren also came out of the empress palace. When I heard that it was the empress dowager or the queen, he went to the Guipo Palace to serve him."

Mu Bichuan frowned for a moment before thinking about it, and said, "I heard my father say that the ancestors of the herdsmen were ordered by Emperor Wei to guard the northwest in the previous dynasty. In order to show their determination, they took them there with their families. Their children grew up and married in the local area. Therefore, if there was no softness before the death of Wei, the northwest herdsman could almost be counted as a Family, in more than ten years after the death of the former Wei Dynasty, our grandfather supported Emperor Gaozu with 3,000 herdsmen in his hand, so he had the support of the royal families of Gaozu and the former emperors for the herdsmen.

What he said was vague, but Mu Biwei also heard something: "So, although our family is thin now, it still has some roots in the northwest?"

"It's just that under the military order when guarding the border, there are fewer people to deceive, and there are more people available." Mu Bichuan thought for a moment and felt that Fang Xianren's move was indeed suspected of spying on the power of the shepherd's family by the order of the Empress Dowager. He was afraid that Mu Biwei's estimation would make mistakes and not make mistakes in the palace in the future. He felt that he might as well explain it in detail now, "At that time, our great ancestors and above and the people in other rooms were in Xuelanguan. Few generals are lucky to die in the war, so speaking of the foundation in the northwest, in addition to the name, they still followed their grandfather's 3,000 Ye army in Yedu. Although many of them also died in the war, they are all natives in the northwest. In terms of relatives and clans in the northwest, today's military households are almost all theirs. Descendants or relatives, my pastoral ancestors have always treated soldiers well. This word of mouth is still the same in this dynasty, so compared with Ni Zhen and Qujia, although Dad was young when he invited himself to the border at that time, he did take advantage of it.

Mu Bi meditated slightly. At that time, the shepherd family was ordered by Emperor Shenwu of Wei to fly into Yedu to support the young emperors to ascend the throne. However, Rouran took the opportunity to invade, forcing the herdsman family to divide their troops. The great-grandfather Mu Chi and grandfather Mu Xun continued to rush to Yedu, and the rest of the people returned to save the northwest. However, Wei room was in chaos. Early, one day of error, the young emperor died - in this case, Mu Chi and Mu Xunjing encountered embarrassment, and they could only save the little princess of Shenwu Emperor from the messy Wei room to talk about everything. This is today's Princess Wen.

The 3,000 pastoral army was also left to Mu Xun when Mu Chi came back to save Xuelan Pass. At that time, the excuse may have been used to suppress the chaos in Yedu, but in fact, a large part of it was to protect Princess Wen.

After all, the shepherd's family has been loyal for generations. Before the death of Emperor Shenwu of Wei, he entrusted the young emperor with him. Unexpectedly, he died in the royal civil strife because of the delay. Although the princess could not ascend the throne, for the shepherd family, he tried his best to protect the bloodline for Emperor Shenwu.

-Emperor Shenwu of Wei was wise and courageous. He was a rare Mingjun at the end of the former Wei Dynasty. Unfortunately, the sky was not a holiday, which was also the end of the former Wei Dynasty... Before his death, he also knew that his young son could not suppress the ambitions of the rest of the royal family, so he urgently edicted the shepherd's army to enter Yedu to protect the throne, and the herdsman did not I don't know, but there is softness in the northwest, and it is impossible for the army to move, so the one who rushes to Yedu must be part of the elite!

Later, Mu Chi returned to help Xue Lan and left Mu Xun to protect Princess Wen, who was naturally an elite soldier.

These 3,000 soldiers and horses want to protect a princess who can't inherit the throne at all. It is still an unknown little princess. In fact, it is not difficult in troubled times. After all, although Rouran took advantage of the internal chaos of the Central Plains to seize the two levels of clouds and recklessness, the Xuelan Pass was finally guarded. The foundation of the herdsman's family in the northwest was still there at that time, and Mu Chi took the princess to the west. Beiyi ran and wanted to protect her to grow up safely... But why did Princess Wen grow up under Gaozu's knees and even became a side concubine when the late emperor was king?

Mu Biwei's face gradually became solemn - Princess Wen is the biological mother of King Gaoyang. King Gaoyang is the youngest son of the late emperor and the son of a concubine. In theory, there are three brothers in front of him, and Ji Shen is still the crown prince personally appointed by Liang Gaozu. Now she has been in the throne for five years... The Empress Dowager Gao has a strong family, so what else is there to worry about?

However, since Mu Chi left Mu Xun and 3,000 elites to protect the young Princess Wen, it must have seen that the Wei room was in danger at that time. Three thousand herdsmen... Although Mu Biwei has not been to the battlefield, the old staff left in Yedu since childhood to explain some military tactics for Mu Bichuan. Speaking of actual combat, try to introduce the former Wei. The elite of the herdsman army in the last year is an example. Three thousand herdsmen are enough to destroy the city - although it is a small city.

At that time, Mu Biwei had listened to some. She vaguely guessed that Zengzu had left these 3,000 people in those years, which might not have seen a bad situation, so Mu Xun planned to take Princess Wen back to the northwest! After all, at that time, the Xuelan Pass had not been broken, and the sheph clan had not been slaughtered. Although they took advantage of it, the shepherd family had been operating for several generations in the northwest, and no one expected that they would be so miserable!

As for why she didn't take Princess Wen immediately, this is also because she is a woman, but she is always the daughter of the clan. The only bloodline left by Emperor Shenwu of Wei at that time, no matter how much the shepherd is trusted by Emperor Shenwu of Wei, it is impossible to take the princess out of the royal family at will - Xie Yu also said that when the Wei room was most chaotic, Mu Xun invited Ji Jing took Princess Wen to the Outer Huangzhuang in Yedu for a temporary residence, using the excuse to avoid illness. There was also an imperial palace away from the palace. Before the fall of the Wei Dynasty, or the situation was so critical that he had to go, Mu Xun refused to easily hold the princess's reputation. After all, at that time, the shepherd Ding was prosperous, and several generations of descendants, Mu Xun To be loyal to Emperor Wei Shenwu, but also try to keep the voice of the herdsman family.

Mu Bi raised her head slightly and said cautiously, "How many people in the northwest know the identity of Princess Wen?"
