Chapter 76 Unspoken

Mu Qing, the head of the Mu family, passed away a few years ago. Since then, Mu Ying has taken charge of the Mu family from the inside out.

However, because he wanted to seize military power, Mu Ying devoted himself to the Southwest Army. A few years ago, he often lived in Jiange. After the Southwest Army occupied Hanzhong a few months ago, he went to Hanzhong and did not go home for several months.

It was only after Li Xin returned to Jincheng that he rushed back.

At this time, when he heard Zhao Jia say something like this, Mu Ying's dark face was covered with sweat. He wiped it with his sleeve, turned to look at Li Xin, and smiled bitterly: "Marty, I really don't know all these things. We have known each other for more than ten years. You should know my character. The fact that the Southwest can have this situation is the result of our hard work for more than ten years. When the Southwest Army was still the Hanzhou Army, the Marquis told me not to let too many Mu family members enter the Hanzhou Army to avoid breaking out of control. Now, my Mu family has two or three thousand people, and there are no more than ten fingers in the army. The largest of them is just a commander."

"Many people in the clan called me the head of the family unkind."

"Later, the Southwest Army was divided into three parts, and the Marquis gave me your share. There was no one named Mu in the Southwest Army in Jincheng."

Mu Ying bowed deeply to Li Xin: "The Marquis treats Mu Ying sincerely, and Mu Ying has also treated the Marquis sincerely. After I go back, I will immediately check how many places the Mu family has surrounded, and I will return them one by one. If anyone has committed the crime, I will personally escort Mr. You'an's management mansion. Whether to kill or cut, Mu Ying will not say a word."

Li Xin smiled and patted Mu Ying on the shoulder.

"I naturally believe in Brother Mu's character. However, in the third year of Taikang, I told Brother Mu that I believe in Brother Mu, but I may not trust the Mu family. Brother Mu's current family should be the Shu Prince Mansion. I must restrain my clan members and not let the Mu family ruin the reputation of the Shu Prince Mansion."

"My brother and the Mu family have made great efforts to deal with this matter, Brother Mu and Brother You'an discuss it. No matter what the result is, I only have one sentence."

The smile on Li Xin's face was calm and he said seriously: "Don't hurt the harmony."

Mu Ying immediately lowered her head: "Don't worry, no matter what the situation is, I will always stand on the side of the marquis."

Li Xin nodded with a smile, then reached out and waved to Li Shuo, and said, "Let's go to the inner room to talk, and let Brother Mu and Brother You'an discuss how to deal with these matters."

Li Shuo nodded respectfully: "Yes."

After saying that, he followed Li Xin and left, leaving only Mu Ying and Zhao Jia.

Seeing Li Xin leaving, Mu Ying looked back at Zhao Jia, first gritted her teeth angrily, and then smiled helplessly at Zhao Jia: "Mr. You'an, you have been in the southwest for so many years, I asked myself that I have never neglected you at all. Say hello to me for such things. I can't stand on your side. Why bother complaining in front of the Marquis at such a time?"

"I'm doing it for your own good."

Zhao Jia sat down on his own and said lightly: "The Mu family has a special status in the southwest. In addition, there are too many people, so there will inevitably be some people who are not smart. You suppress them and prevent them from entering the southwest army. It is normal for them to cause trouble everywhere. I sit in the position of the Guanlifu, deliberately indulging them until today."

"The Hanzhou Army was formed by the Mu family. Later, the three-pointer Pingnan Army was divided into three points, and you took another share of General Mu. There are two of the three points in the southwest. This is very abnormal."

"In the past, it was okay if the Marquis raised the flag before the Marquis was ready. Others were in Yongzhou and not in the southwest. The Southwest also needed such a backbone as you, but now the Marquis has made up his mind, you should pay attention to it yourself."

Zhao Jia poured himself a cup of tea and said lightly: "This time you cooperate with me and knock on the Mu family, and then you slowly get out of the Mu family. The Marquis said just now that you, Mu Ying, should be from the Shu Prince's Mansion, not from the Mu family. In the future, the one who passed on your family will be the Shu Prince's Mansion. Take this opportunity to let the Shu Prince's Mansion slowly separate from the Mu family."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jia looked up at Mu Ying and added lightly: "Of course, you are sure to take care of the Mu family of thousands of people. No one will cause trouble anymore, so just pretend I didn't say this."

After saying that, Zhao Jia stood up, reached out and patted Mu Ying on the shoulder, and said slowly: "General Mu, we are going to rebel and we will no longer make small fuss like before."

"The Marquis' attitude is already very clear. The internal structure of the southwest will be clear from today onwards."

"You General Mu is a smart person. In this regard, I don't need to say more about what you should do?"

Mu Ying was silent for a while, then turned to look at Zhao Jia and asked silently: "Mr. You'an, did you... the Marquis teach you to say to me?"

Zhao Jia shook his head.

"Li Changan is thin-skinned and can't do such a thing."

"Just think it's me, a big scholar, and you're just guessing it yourself. What should you do? You can consider it yourself after you go back."

After saying that, Zhao Jia walked out with his hands behind his back. After walking a few steps, he looked back at Mu Ying and said calmly: "I don't care about how you deal with the internal affairs of the Mu family, but those who beat people to death in Jincheng will come out to pay their lives."

Mu Ying took a deep breath.

"I'll go home now. In three days, I'll go to the Guanluo Mansion to give Mr. You'an a satisfactory statement."

Zhao Jia carried his hands on his back and did not look back. He smiled at the servant of the Li family beside him and said, "I'm sorry to tell the Marquis for me, and then he said that the affairs of the Administration are busy, so Zhao Jia will go back first."

Mu Ying also walked over and said rudely to the servant: "I will tell you for me, and I will say I have family matters to deal with, so I will say goodbye first."

After saying that, the two left the Li family together.

At this time, under the pavilion in the backyard of the Li family, the two brothers were playing chess across the table, playing chess.

Li Shuo was smart and had better chess skills than Li Xin. After just 10 or 20 moves, Marquis Jing'an was at a disadvantage.

He moved his horse and asked, "Is it okay for the past few years?"

Li Shuo lowered his head slightly: "I am worried about my brother. I have a good time now and I have lived a much better life than before."

"The Southwest Army in Ningzhou can keep 10,000 people, and all the rest will be transferred to Ankang. You can lead it yourself, and in a while, war may begin."

Li Shuo lowered his head and replied "Yes", then looked up at Li Xin, and asked cautiously: "Brother... seemed to have hit General Mu just now."

"It's not worthy of knocking."

Li Xin moved another piece and sighed slowly: "Since you have to do things, you have to be more formal. Everyone follows the rules. As before, the road is not far."

Li Shuo nodded and said nothing.

After a few more moves, he couldn't bear it. He looked up at Li Xin and asked, "Brother, I can't figure out one thing."

Li Shuo was a little confused. Li Xin took the opportunity to eat one of his cannons with a horse, then groaned and said, "Do you want to ask, since I also want to rebel, why didn't he rebel with Li Shen back then?"

Li Shuo lowered his head and didn't speak, obviously accusing this issue.

"First of all, I didn't want to rebel at that time."

Li Xin died, his tone was calm and firm.
