Chapter 125 - High Priest Mu Ziyan
Feng Shijiu covered his forehead, frowned, and shook his head, saying, "Mother, Jiujiu is fine. Jiujiu is already a man. In the future, he will learn martial arts from Uncle Jiu and Uncle and go to the battlefield. This little injury is nothing!"
"Good boy!" Feng Muyan stretched out his hand and pressed it on Feng Shijiu's shoulder, pinching his wrist along his shoulder. This boy is a good material for learning martial arts, but it's a little late. However, he will surely become a great man in the future.
Half a month later, Mu Ziyan and his convoy arrived at Nanyue Capital in a hurry. The one who came to greet them was the newly appointed Minister of Rites. When he saw Mu Ziyan get off the carriage, he walked up to him elegantly and nodded slightly, saying, "Your subordinate Xue Qi has been waiting for you here for a long time."
"Lord Xue is polite. I'm Mu Ziyan, the High Priest of Dongchu!" As he spoke, Mu Ziyan raised his eyes slightly and looked at Xue Qi. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised. Xue Qi had changed so much in the past eight years that he even looked more mature.
"Lord Mu, is there something wrong with me?" Xue Qi asked nervously, then lowered his head and looked himself up and down.
"No, I am sorry for being rude. Please lead the way, Lord Xue." Mu Ziyan clasped his fists apologetically, then stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.
When the familiar house appeared before him, Mu Ziyan clenched his fists into white and hid them in his sleeves. His eyes were also filled with moisture. He took a deep breath to suppress his emotions and asked, "Excuse me, Lord Xue, where is this place?"
"This is the temporary palace arranged by our emperor for Princess Chaoning. I hope Lord Mu will forgive me for inconvenienced the princess these few days." Xue Qi was puzzled. The environment and conditions of the Song family's old house were quite good. What on earth was the high priest of Dongchu dissatisfied with?
"Very good!" Mu Ziyan's lips curled slightly but there was no trace of smile in his eyes. He turned around and walked a few steps onto the stairs. He slowly placed his hand on the lion-shaped door knocker and gently knocked on the door. The clear child's voice kept appearing in his mind, "Daddy, come and chase Li'er! Daddy, Li'er didn't read pornographic books. That was reasonable health education..."
Listening to the familiar sound and touching the familiar door knocker, Mu Ziyan slowly lowered his head. When the dozens of claw marks at the bottom of the door came into view, Mu Ziyan's heart warmed up and he smiled knowingly, muttering, "Feng Bai, how much of the Song family's stuff have you stolen?"
"Ah...ah..." The soul-stirring howl of a wolf was heard, and the surroundings suddenly became a commotion. Everyone looked around in fear for the source of the sound. Just when everyone thought that the sound was an illusion, a wolf with a shiny gray body suddenly appeared on the street.
"Ah! Ah!" The women and children ran away screaming in fear.
Mu Ziyan turned around suddenly as if he was being summoned by something, and a pair of eyes that were all too familiar came into view. The tears that he had just suppressed could no longer be controlled, and mist instantly blurred his eyes.
The wolf slammed the ground with its two front paws and pounced towards Mu Ziyan like an arrow. No one dared to stop it with its speed and ferocity. Of course, there were some people who could stop it but were unwilling to lend a helping hand, such as Xue Qi, who was not far from her, and just watched with a smile on her face and her arms folded.
Just when Xue Qi thought that Mu Ziyan's neck would be bitten off by the wolf, something shocking happened. The wolf simply knocked Mu Ziyan to the ground with its two claws and licked her face with great excitement.
"Ao... Woo... Ao..." It was the same wolf howl, but without the domineering tone just now. It always gave people a feeling of being coquettish.
