You Are Not the Only Rich Chapter 137

In the imperial study, Mu Hanye was reading the memorials. He frowned slightly after hearing the news, "Is it haunted?"
"Didn't King Anping mention this?" Oliver asked.
Mu Hanye shook his head, "Never before."
As soon as the words came out, everyone in the room fell silent. If what Wu Shan said was true, then the Western Region trade route had been blocked for some time. It was so big that King Anping had not reported it. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't make sense.
Mu Hanye's face darkened as expected, and he sent his servant to summon Mu Lieyan.
"Be good, go behind the screen and wait." Asher patted Oliver.
Shen Xiaoshou was speechless. His man was simply unreasonable when he was jealous.
The lady's expression is so heartbreaking... The secret guard rolled up his sleeves ruthlessly, ready to rush up and fight with the palace master at any time. He is very loyal.
Asher glanced at everyone coldly.
My own mother is so scary. The mascot of the world trembled, and immediately began to fan himself with his hands. They all said that it was so hot in the imperial study room that they could not cool down even if they rolled up their sleeves. We all wanted to go topless.
Oliver didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he turned around and went behind the screen - although he couldn't see outside, he could hear everything, so it didn't matter.
"Brother Wang." After a while, Mu Lieyan followed the chamberlain to the imperial study. When he opened the door and saw people standing inside, he was inevitably startled.
Mu Hanye sat on the dragon throne, looking at him without saying a word.
Mu Lieyan's heartbeat was beating like a drum, his face turned pale, and he felt that his whole body was in bad shape. With this kind of look, let alone he really intends to send himself to Chu State to be imprisoned.
"What's the situation with the Western Region trade route?" After a moment, Mu Hanye finally spoke.
"West, the Western Region trade route?" Mu Lieyan was stunned when he heard this, and his mind quickly flashed back to Asher's previous words about sending a "useless relative of the emperor" to the Chu State as a hostage. So now I take it for granted that this must be Mu Hanye testing his knowledge and whether it is useful.
But... it's really useless! Mu Lieyan's forehead was covered with sweat, and he stammered, unable to utter a single complete sentence for a long time.
But his expression obviously had another meaning in Mu Hanye's eyes. He thought that there was something fishy about the Western Trade Route, so he slammed the table in anger and said, "Speak!"
Everyone in the room was surprised by his reaction, and even Oliver behind the screen almost choked on the tea. Mu Lieyan was even more shocked, his mind went blank and his knees went weak, he fell to his knees with a plop, and he had no idea why all this happened.
Mu Hanye's face was gloomy, and the room was completely silent. Even the air seemed to be frozen, and the only sound that could be heard was the chattering of Mu Lieyan's teeth.
The secret guard shook his head in his heart. That's why they say that the nine sons of a dragon are all different. Although they are all members of the Mu family, except for the vague resemblance between their eyebrows and eyes, this person doesn't have the shadow of the Seventh Absolute King at all.
Oliver listened for a long time behind the screen, but saw no movement outside. Just when he was thinking about whether to go out to smooth things over, Mu Lieyan suddenly said loudly, "The Western Region Trade Road borders Qijue Border to the west and winds through the Atana Desert. It is connected to Rakshasa Huikan and other countries in the north, and its position is extremely important. "
Oliver was stunned. It was already this late and why were they still doing geography fill-in-the-blank questions?
The secret guards were also a little confused, thinking, could it be that the little prince was so frightened that his brain became confused?
Mu Hanye frowned, "And then?"
"And then, and then... I really can't remember. I have never listened to a whole class of the teacher's. Brother Wang, please spare me." Mu Lieyan burst into tears, "As long as you don't send me to the State of Chu as a hostage, I will study hard in the future and never slack off again... Brother Wang, please test me again in three months..." She was so sad.
Asher suppressed his laughter and glanced at Mu Hanye sharply.
Mu Lieyan almost fainted from crying.
Faced with such a mistake, Mu Hanye was a little bit dumbfounded, "Get up first, sit down and talk."
Mu Lieyan's knees went weak, and the secret guard stepped forward to help him up and put a chair under his bu.tt.
"Have there been any abnormalities on the Western Region trade routes recently?" Mu Hanye asked.
Mu Lieyan quickly shook his head, "No."
Mu Hanye sneered, "You didn't think about it."
Mu Lieyan quickly made an expression of deep thought, and after a while he shook his head, "No."
The secret guard held his forehead, it was rare to see someone so stupid.
"Really?" Mu Hanye asked again.
I don't know if there is one. Mu Lieyan wanted to go to the toilet and said with a sad face, "I have never asked my father these questions."
Mu Hanye shook his head and poured a cup of herbal tea to relieve the fire.
"By the way, a group of businessmen from the Western Regions came to the military camp last month to cause trouble. It seems that they lost their goods in the desert." In order to show that he was actually useful, Mu Lieyan finally came up with something.
"A businessman from the Western Regions lost something and went to make trouble in the military camp instead?" Mu Hanye frowned upon hearing this.
Mu Lieyan nodded, "It's absolutely true, I heard it with my own ears."
"What then?" Mu Hanye asked.
"Then my father sent me away." Mu Lieyan said honestly, "Master is still waiting for me to go back to class."
Mu Hanye looked up and exchanged glances with Asher, both of them felt that something was wrong. The military camp was not an escort agency, so what did it have to do with the merchant losing his goods?
"Brother Wang." There was a strange atmosphere in the room. Mu Lieyan called cautiously, feeling a little weak.
"Besides the letter, did Uncle Wang say anything else to you when he came back this time?" Mu Hanye continued to ask.
Mu Lieyan shook his head, "Nothing else, my father seems to be very busy these days, and he has no time to talk to me. He even asked me to stay with my mother for a few more days and go back in the fall."
It was only April at this time, and autumn was beginning in August, so a pole would be too far. Oliver frowned slightly, was he deliberately trying to push his son away?
"Go down first." Mu Hanye didn't ask any more questions.
"Yes." Mu Lieyan stood up and said anxiously, "Do I still want to go to Chu Country?"
Mu Hanye raised his eyes and said, "Look at your recent performance."
Mu Lieyan nodded quickly, "Brother Wang, don't worry, I must have performed particularly well recently."
Mu Hanye waved his hand and sent him out.
Oliver came out from behind the screen and asked Mu Hanye, "What does the Seventh King think?"
"Ayan went to the border because he was too overbearing in the city, so Uncle Wang called him to his side to discipline him personally." Mu Hanye said, "In the past two years, although Ayan would sneak back every now and then, someone from the military camp would come to pick him up every ten days at most, not to mention three to five months."
"So, this time King Anping intended to send him back?" Oliver asked.
Mu Hanye nodded, and said thoughtfully, "Blocking the trade route and not reporting it, and ignoring A Yan, it's unlike Uncle Wang's character. There must be something hidden."
"How about writing a letter and asking?" Oliver suggested.
"Since you did it on purpose, what's the point of writing a letter?" Mu Hanye stood up, "I want to go to the border in person."
Asher nodded, "I'll accompany Brother Mu."
Mu Hanye smiled and said, "Thank you."
No need to thank you at all! The secret guard clenched his fists in his heart. As an upright person from a well-known family, we have always been so chivalrous and righteous. Please feel it for a moment.
Since they had already made up their minds, there was no need to delay any longer. Three days later, Asher and his party set off for the border Sunset City with Mu Hanye.
Since the last Western Expedition, Oliver has never been to the desert again. After walking out of the Qijue King's City this time, I saw the endless and magnificent boundless yellow sand, and I felt much more relaxed.
"Run for a while?" Asher asked him.
Oliver nodded, his smile warm and innocent in the sunset.
Asher's heart softened as well. After hugging the man tightly, he whipped the horse with one hand, and immediately, like an arrow shot from a bow, he neighed and rushed forward with four hooves. The long northwest wind that had been silent for a thousand years blew across his cheeks, as if it could dispel all the haze.
In the carriage, Mu Hanye lowered the curtains and said disdainfully, "I can see that he is used to being cramped in Shu. I guess he can't even find a flat ground to ride a horse."
Wong Tai Sin was amused, "As the king of a country, you also like to gossip behind people's backs?"
"How could it be behind your back? I told Ah Huang openly and openly." Mu Hanye brought a bowl of white fungus soup and fed it to him one spoonful at a time.
Although Wong Tai Sin really wanted to eat it himself, considering his bad taste, he still reluctantly accepted it to avoid extending all kinds of strange requests.
In fact, Mu Hanye wanted to keep Huang Daxian in the palace for this operation. After all, he was poisoned and weak, so he should recuperate well. But in the end, he couldn't persuade him and had to agree to go with him.
I just couldn't bear to say no. He really had the potential to be a tyrant... King Qi Jue clicked his tongue and shook his head.
The journey in the next few days was extremely smooth. In fact, it was difficult not to be smooth. First, this was within the borders of the Seven Absolutes. It was estimated that few people dared to rob Mu Hanye's carriage. Second, even if they really wanted to rob the carriage, they had to consider Asher and Oliver who were accompanying them. The combined combat power of these people was estimated to be sky-high. Only a fool would rush into the edge of a knife, not to mention the phoenix that could only shoot thunderbolts with its eyes.
Just hearing it makes me pee.
The fur ball lay in the dark guard's arms, sleeping with his mouth open, looking a little stupid. The big phoenix circled in the sky, as gorgeous and cool as ever.
They really are brothers. The secret guard gives full play to his potential as a brainless fan. She looks exactly like my young palace mistress.
"Chirp!" Furball kicked his claws in a daze, and soared ninety thousand miles in his dream.
Very cool.
As dusk approached this day, everyone finally arrived at Sunset City. The red clouds in the sky reflect the blue city wall, which is indescribably majestic and majestic.
"See you, Your Majesty." King Anping had already led his troops to greet him outside the city gate. The uniformly cavalry and black-armored troops were solemn and solemn.
"No courtesy." Mu Hanye took Huang Taixian and got off the horse, "Uncle Wang, are you okay?"
King Anping frowned, pointed at his throat, and looked at the deputy general again.
"Your Majesty, the prince has recently caught a cold and cannot speak." The deputy general hurriedly explained.
Oliver had been curious all the way, and finally saw King Anping. He was about fifty years old, with gray hair and no wrinkles on his face. His face was red and he was tall and tall. He could tell at a glance that he was a martial arts practitioner. people.
"Have you seen a military doctor?" Mu Hanye asked.
"I've seen it and prescribed medicine." The lieutenant said, "I've only taken it for two or three days, so I guess it hasn't taken effect yet."
"Uncle Wang must take care of himself." Mu Hanye said, "The safety of our Qijue Kingdom's borders depends entirely on Uncle Wang." This statement is somewhat exaggerated. As a king, it is naturally impossible to hand over all the burdens to him. the same person. However, people always like to hear good things, so King Anping's face became more and more rosy.
Sunset City was originally just a small village. Later, due to its important military location, Mu Hanye ordered King Anping to lead his army to this place and built this bluestone city. Unlike ordinary cities, most of the people living in Sunset City are officers and soldiers and their families. Influenced by military discipline, the atmosphere is much more serious.
Since Mu Hanye did not bring many people with him this time, he did not go to the inn and lived directly in the Anping Palace. After several days of traveling, Oliver felt sore in his waist and back, and he lay on the bed with his legs spread out as soon as he entered the room, humming like a pig.
Asher was amused and sat up while holding the person.
"What do you think of Prince Anping?" Oliver put his arms around his neck.
"We just met once, and we didn't even say anything. How can we look at each other." Asher pinched his nose, "Ling'er won't help me figure it out."
"Don't make a fuss." Oliver knocked his hand down, "It just so happens that I can't talk right now, don't you think it's a little strange?"
"What do you think of this?" Asher raised his eyebrows.
"If King Anping really did something behind his back, no matter how well the lie is fabricated, there will definitely be flaws if he says a few more words. According to King Qi Jue's shrewdness, it is impossible not to see it." Oliver said, "And if you want to The easiest way to avoid showing off is to pretend that you can't speak."
"Do you suspect he is pretending?" Asher said.
"It's not that I doubt him. I heard a lot about his deeds along the way, and I always feel that he should be a hero." Oliver said, "If I really doubt him, I will go and tell the story to King Qijue, and I won't just tell you."
"It's a bit strange to have a hoarse voice at this time." Asher said, "But you and I can think of it, and Brother Mu can certainly think of it too. We are guests, so it's inconvenient for us to interfere too much."
"Yes." Oliver nodded, "I have medicine for throat here. Brother Ye gave it to me. One pill will cure the problem."
Asher's eyes were meaningful.
Oliver was stunned for a moment, then angrily said, "Catching a cold can also cause a hoarse voice!" The possibility is not just the humming sound causing the voice to become hoarse.
What the hell is that expression.
His man is a gangster!
"What other medicine did Ye Jin give you?" Asher picked him up and let him sit on his lap.
"What do you care?" Shen Xiaoshou snorted.
"Say." Asher poked his belly.
Oliver dodged for a moment, then said seriously, "No erection medicine."
Asher:...
"It's true." Oliver took out a small bottle from his sleeve, "This is it."
"What are you doing with this thing!" Asher was shocked and angry, but he still carried it with him.
"Fight gangsters." Oliver said, "Brother Ye taught me that if I meet a scoundrel, I'll slap him in the face. A bottle will wither for at least two years!" It's simply cruel.
"Confiscate it." Asher took it away without saying anything.
Shen Xiaoshou tried to snatch it back, but failed.
"If someone dares to covet you, I will naturally castrate him. It is not your turn to do it." Asher threw the bottle to the secret guard outside the window, "Put it away for Ling'er."
"Yes." The secret guard found a piece of cloth and rolled it up until he was sure that nothing would leak out.
What is Ye Guzhu studying every day? He is simply brutal, comparable to Protector Zuo.
Oliver protested silently in his heart.
"Be good, don't touch this kind of thing next time. You don't know martial arts, what if it gets on you?" Asher helped him wipe his hands.
"How can I be that stupid!" Shen Xiaoshou was angry.
"Ling'er is certainly not stupid." Asher k!ssed him, "Take you to the city for a walk?"
"It's getting dark, where are we going to go shopping?" Oliver was not interested, so hurry up and return my poison!
"Let's go see the stars." Asher said, "The terrain here is high and we can see the brightest Milky Way."
Oliver:...
It sounds a bit romantic.
"Are you going or not?" Asher asked.
Oliver nodded happily.
Asher smiled, took a cloak casually, and took him out of the palace.
On the other side, Mu Hanye was looking through files in the study.
The border was colder than the Royal City. Huang Taixian helped him put on some clothes, "It's already very late."
"Tired?" Mu Hanye shook his hand.
"I'm not tired, I'm just reminding you to rest early." Wong Tai Sin sat next to him, "What are you looking at?"
"The latest daily files." Mu Hanye said, "I want to see if there is anything unusual."
"Then what?" Wong Tai Sin asked.
"I haven't found anything yet." Mu Hanye put the book in his hand back on the table, "According to Uncle Wang's style of doing things, this is expected."
"What should we do now?" Wong Tai Sin asked.
"If you are speechless at this moment, there must be something wrong." Mu Hanye smiled, "But this is a good thing."
"Good news?" Wong Tai Sin was puzzled.
Mu Hanye said, "Uncle Wang is a seasoned veteran, but the people around him may not be."
Wong Tai Sin understood, "You want to start with the deputy general?"
"Liu Zhen has been guarding the border for many years, and he knows as much as Uncle Wang." Mu Hanye said, "And the most important point is that there are some things that I might be hesitant to ask Uncle Wang, but it's different if I ask him."
"In this case, why does King Anping still pretend to be deaf and dumb?" Huang Taixian was a little unable to turn around. "Since we have all come to the border, it is naturally impossible to ignore everything. Even if he doesn't want to speak, he can't stop you from asking others. . "And you may be able to ask more things by asking others, so what is the point of not speaking?
"Maybe there are some things he can't say out loud, or maybe he's really caught the cold and can't speak." Mu Hanye said, "But it's too early to make a conclusion now. At least we'll have to talk about it tomorrow."
"Yes." Huang Taixian nodded.
"Go to sleep first." Mu Hanye said, "I will come back to accompany you after I finish reading these files."
"I'm not sleepy." Huang Daxian sat aside, "You just do your thing, don't worry about me."
Mu Hanye sighed with satisfaction, "Ah Huang is really obsessed with me."
Wong Tai Sin: ...
Mu Hanye suggested again, "How about Ah Huang grinding the ink for me?"
Wong Tai Sin was puzzled, "Why do you need to grind ink when you don't need to write?"
Mu Hanye said enthusiastically, "I heard there is a saying in the Central Plains, which is called red sleeves add fragrance."
Huang Daxian stood up decisively and said, "I'm going to sleep first, you---"
"I will definitely go back to my room early!" Mu Hanye interrupted him with his eyes shining.
Wong Tai Sin looked back calmly, "I mean, you don't have to come back tonight."
The handsome King Qi Jue was hurt again.
Wong Tai Sin pushed the door and walked out of the study.
"Chirp!" The fur ball fell from the sky and just fell into his arms.
Huang Daxian was startled at first, then laughed, "Where did you run from?"
"Chiu!" Maoqiu's hair was all disheveled and he pointed at the air angrily.
The colorful phoenix spread its wings and flew across the sky, cutting into pieces a beam of silvery moonlight.
Furball waved his short wings angrily, I can fly too!
Wong Tai Sin rubbed its head and carried it back to the bedroom.
The secret guard sighed on the roof, and began his days of being homeless and having to ask for shelter everywhere again...The Young Palace Master was truly pitiful.
I don’t know where the lady went.
"Sneeze!" Oliver sneezed.
"Cold?" Asher put on his cloak.
Oliver shook his head and sat shoulder to shoulder with him on the sand dunes to watch the stars.
"Do you still remember when we went to the enemy camp in Mobei in disguise?" Asher squeezed his fingers.
"Yeah." Oliver sighed, "Time flies so fast, it seems like it happened yesterday."
Asher said, "At that time, I thought that if I came to the desert again next time, it would be to drink and enjoy the moon. I didn't expect that it would be because of trouble again."
"Actually, it's not bad." Oliver hugged his arm, "At least now I can be quiet and don't think about those messy things."
"Do you regret it?" Asher asked suddenly.
"Huh?" Oliver was stunned.
"I regret staying for me." Asher looked at him.
Oliver shook his head, "Never."
Asher chuckled, lowered his head and k!ssed his forehead, "Be good."
Oliver closed his eyes and leaned against him lazily.
The moonlight is bright and clear, giving everything in the world a silvery glow. In this kind of environment, love words will always be more gentle, so Shen Xiaoshou was laid flat on the sand without knowing it.
Asher turned over and pressed her down, then lowered his head and k!ssed her light-colored lips.
"Wait a minute!" Oliver pushed him away hard and said cautiously, "It's just a k!ss, right?"
Asher laughed, "Can we bargain at this moment?"
Why not, you are such a gangster! Oliver was very serious, "I'll touch your belly again at most." This was already the bottom line!
Asher shook his head, "Not enough."
Oliver said earnestly, "You can't be too greedy. Have you ever heard the story of a snake swallowing an elephant? There used to be...well!"
"Once upon a time there was a little demon." Asher untied his belt, "In the middle of the night, he didn't practice well, but sneaked out to have fun."
Shen Xiaoshou was filled with grief and anger, it was clearly you who was trying to make fun of me!
"She looks a bit like a fairy." Asher pinched his cheek.
Young man, you really have a lot of demands! Oliver thought about it, then bared his teeth and rolled his eyes at him.
Asher:...
Shen Xiaoshou's eyes were very serious. You didn't say it had to be a vixen. It wasn't wrong that it was a man-eating goblin just now.
Asher spread out his bearskin cloak and carried him up.
No wonder, the weather wasn’t too cold, so why would I bring this when going out? It was all planned in advance!
Shen Xiaoshou was angry.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have come!
It’s really a big disadvantage.
