From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 706

The moonlight was like water, and the outline of Wumeng Mountain was embedded in the sky like a silhouette. On Xiangshui Beach, the fire was lingering, and countless villagers were singing and dancing here, forming countless large circles. It was very lively.

It was simply a foolish dream to want to take pictures of the so-called Han people in such an occasion.

Shuizhou led more than 40 brothers and kept walking through the crowd, but found nothing.

He scratched his head hard, and the pressure in his heart was getting greater and greater. If this matter was not handled well, the county magistrate would definitely not promote me. How could I make progress? How could I stand out? How could I be a hero?

He thought about the solution distressedly, and finally gritted his teeth and decided to start from his own Huaixi Village.

Only the villagers of Huaixi Village had seen the new Qingying Amei. As long as Qingying Amei was found, the Han people could be found.

Thinking of this, he went straight to Huaixi Village, grabbed an old man and said with a smile: "Grandpa Baishui, where is Sister Qingying? I want to find her."

His tone was warm and shy.

The old man named Baishui didn't know the truth. His eyes narrowed and he smiled: "Shuizhou, don't you like Sister Hongyu? Why do you have feelings for Sister Qingying now?"

No, I like Hongyu... How come everyone knows about it? I didn't tell anyone!

Shuizhou was furious and said awkwardly: "I want to see Sister Qingying. It is said that she is very beautiful."

Old man Baishui said: "But Sister Qingying disappeared ten days ago. Brother Shihai said that she seemed to have gone to Baihua Village."

Baihua Village! Sure enough! Sister Cai Ni is in the same group with them!

No... No! How could Sister Cai Ni collude with the Han people? She is such a beautiful girl, she would not do this.

It was the Han people who wanted to use Cai Ni A Mei as a cover!

Thinking of this, he looked at a brother beside him and said, "You are from Baihua Village, go there quietly to see if there are any unfamiliar faces."

The follower nodded and quickly went to Baihua Village.

But Shuizhou felt that it was too troublesome to look for her like this, so he smiled and said, "Grandpa Baishui, come with me to Baihua Village to look for her. I haven't seen Qingying A Mei."

He supported the old man and said in a low voice, "If Qingying A Mei and I are together, I will give you money for the matchmaking."

Baishui waved his hand and smiled, "I'm free anyway, so I'll help you look for her."

Shuizhou made a gesture to his men, indicating that they should not follow him, otherwise it would easily alert the enemy.

They quietly came to Baihua Village and searched carefully. There were too many people and the light was dim. The old man had poor eyesight. After searching for more than half an hour, they found nothing.

The attendant ran to report: "Brother Shuizhou, we found a strange face."

Shuizhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked: "Where is it? Who is it?"

"There are many, hundreds of them."

The attendant scratched his head and said: "I can't recognize all the people in the village."

Shuizhou wanted to kick him, and took the old man to search along the fire circle of Baihua Village.

This search took more than an hour, and it was late at night but still couldn't find it.

"Hey? That's it!"

Old man Baishui finally rubbed his eyes and said: "That's Qingying, look how beautiful she is, I recognized her at a glance."

Shuizhou turned around suddenly and looked in the direction of his gaze, and then he saw Ye Qingying holding the man's hand and dancing.

"Do you think the person next to her looks unfamiliar?"

"Hey, it seems that I haven't seen him before."

The attendant made a quick judgment.

Shui Zhou immediately said, "It must be them, but there are two Han people who have gone somewhere. No matter what, let's catch these two people first."

"Brothers, follow me!"

Shui Zhou led his men to walk over.

At the same time, Zhou Yuan and Ye Qingying also quickly noticed Shui Zhou and his men coming.

"We can't make trouble here. The Mountain Flower Festival is very important to us."

Zhou Yuan whispered, then took Ye Qingying's hand and ran quickly into the dark.

"Don't let them escape!"

Shui Zhou shouted in a low voice and rushed up quickly.

The singing continued, the breeze blew in the night, the fire was lingering, and groups of people danced around the fire.

Ye Qingying dodged and said, "What should we do? Now is not the time to make a scene. Should we take them out of Xiangshui Beach and kill them all?"

Zhou Yuan said in a deep voice, "Control them all, lead them out, and let Mu Rong handle it."

"I'll lead them away and meet them in the forest to the west. You go and notify Mu Rong."

After saying that, Zhou Yuan turned around and strode towards Shuizhou.

Ye Qingying was not a hesitant person, so she went to find Mu Rong immediately.

Zhou Yuan walked directly to Shuizhou, ten feet away, squinted at the young man, and smiled, "You brought so manyWhat do you want to do with me?"

Shuizhou saw that he was so arrogant, and immediately said: "Han dog, don't think I can't recognize you, catch him..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yuan kicked up the mud and slapped Shuizhou's face.

He laughed and said: "You are qualified to catch me? You are just a young boy who is still wet behind the ears."

"You dare..."

Shuizhou wiped the mud off his face and stared at him, only to see that the man had run far away.

"Chase! Chase him!"

He shouted and rushed up with his men.

The noisy land was full of singing and cheering. Joy spread here, and no one noticed that there was someone chasing in the dark.

Zhou Yuan was very fast. He took Shuizhou and several others to circle back and forth, and spent enough time before finally getting into the woods.

"You can't run away! No one knows the Miao village better than us! "

Shuizhou led his men to block the way and lit torches, only to see a man and a woman standing in the forest.

The stone in his heart finally let go, and he couldn't help laughing: "Run! Why don't you run? Ha! Can't more than 40 people stop you?"

Zhou Yuan looked at him and said lightly: "Shuizhou, why do you want to catch us?"

This question stumped Shuizhou. Strange, do you need a reason to catch Han dogs and spies?

He was about to speak, but another voice came from behind: "Shuizhou, why do you want to catch them?"

The voice was old, heavy, and full of long-lasting majesty.

Shuizhou trembled, and looked back. In the meantime, Mu Rong, with dozens of elders and hundreds of young and middle-aged people, had completely surrounded him.

"Mu, Mu Rong Grandpa...you..."

He couldn't help but step back a few steps, trembling: "Mu Rong Grandpa, what are you...what are you doing, I'm catching Han dogs!"

Mu Rong said with a gloomy face: "Han dogs? Ha! At such a young age, he has not learned anything else, but he has learned these names. "

"Today, your grandfather will come to talk to you properly!"

Shui Zhou changed color and said, "No! Grandpa Murong! We must catch them first! Wait a minute..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that the two people in the forest had disappeared.

They actually took advantage of the chaos and ran away.

Shui Zhou was so angry that he stamped his feet and yelled, "Grandpa Murong! You are delaying my bright future! Are you old and confused!"

Mu Rong strode up to him, his eyes reflecting the moonlight, and then slapped him hard on the face.

He said in a deep voice, "You young people nowadays deserve to be beaten. Only when you are beaten sober, you will know what to do!"
