Commander Meng stepped forward and captured the concubine.
The concubine was shocked and frightened: "Commander Meng, what are you doing? Your Majesty, what did I do wrong? Why are you arresting me?"
The emperor rubbed his aching head and said, "Interrogate him carefully."
"Yes." Commander Meng pushed the concubine to the guards: "Take her away."
The concubine said anxiously: "Your Majesty, although I don't know what I did wrong, I am innocent. Your Majesty, you must believe me, Your Majesty..."
The emperor acted as if he hadn't heard.
Commander Meng followed the guards out of the bedroom, and then brought the concubines to the room in the corner of the imperial farm.
Commander Meng said in a deep voice: "Tell me, who sent you here?"
The concubine was both scared and puzzled: "Who sent me here? Didn't the emperor summon me to sleep with him?"
"You're playing dumb, huh?" Commander Meng drew the sword from his waist and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I'll cut off one of your fingers."
The concubine was so frightened when she saw the long sword with a cold glow.
She cried and asked: "I really don't know what you are talking about, can you explain it more clearly?"
Commander Meng looked at the water stains on the ground and frowned.
This female assassin is too timid and doesn't act like an assassin at all.
At this time, Mu Nanjin's voice sounded again.
[Alas, four Jinyiwei can't even beat a concubine, they are so useless, the whole plot is also very boring, it makes me want to sleep, forget it, I won't watch it anymore. ]
Commander Meng: “…”
Didn't he capture the concubine? How come four Jinyiwei couldn't defeat one concubine and what was going on with the plot?
Could she be reading a storybook? The more Commander Meng thought about it, the more this was possible.
At that moment, his face darkened.
The guard noticed that Commander Meng suddenly stopped moving, and called out cautiously, "Commander Meng?"
Commander Meng put away his sword and said weakly to the guards, "Release Concubine Zhang."
The guards were stunned for a moment: "Yes."
Commander Meng bowed to Concubine Zhang, whose face was covered with tears and snot, and said, "Concubine Zhang, I am sorry for offending you just now. I will send you back to the emperor now."
"Wow--"
Concubine Zhang cried even louder, because she was crying for having escaped a disaster.
Commander Meng felt very guilty.
On the other hand, the emperor probably guessed that they had made a big mistake, and his face was darker than the bottom of a pot.
Not only did he listen to laughter all night, but he also almost killed a concubine by mistake.
Not long after, Commander Meng sent Concubine Zhang back.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately no big mistake was made.
He looked at Zhang Concubine with tears on her face and felt sorry for her. He also knew that she was frightened. Regardless of her dirty body, he quickly hugged her and comforted her: "My beloved, you were frightened just now, weren't you?"
Zhangpin cried and asked, "Your Majesty, what happened just now? Why did you arrest me?"
"Commander Meng mistakenly thought you were an assassin and arrested you. I was frightened at the time and failed to stop him in time. Fortunately, it was a misunderstanding and you were not harmed."
Zhang Concubine thought about how she almost had her fingers chopped off just now, and couldn't help crying again: "I almost had my fingers chopped off, Your Majesty, you must punish Commander Meng."
Commander Meng outside the door: "..."
He is also innocent, okay? If you want to blame someone, blame that damn Mu Nanjin.
"Yes, yes, I will." The emperor patted her back to comfort her: "You have been wronged. In order to compensate you, I have decided to promote you to concubine and give you the title of Fu. You will be Fu Concubine from now on."
When Concubine Zhang heard that she could be promoted to a concubine and have a title, she felt somewhat comforted.
After all, if she had not been particularly favored or given birth to a child for the emperor, it would have been difficult for her to be promoted to the position of concubine, let alone get a title.
She quickly bowed to the emperor: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor went to help her up, but saw that she was dirty all over: "I'll have someone prepare some water for you to take a bath. After you take a bath, have a good sleep."
"yes."
Concubine Zhang was frightened and fell asleep after taking a bath.
But the emperor couldn't fall asleep because all he could hear was Mu Nanjin's voice.
He tossed and turned, and finally sat up angrily: "Didn't you say you were going to sleep? How can I still hear her voice?"
Little did he know that Mu Nanjin was dreaming.
She dreamed about the hilarious movie she watched before going to bed. She didn't laugh with her mouth, but she laughed in her mind, [Hahahaha.]
She dreamed again that a ghost was chasing her.
[Ghost——There is a ghost——]
The emperor couldn't see what Mu Nanjin was doing, but when he heard Mu Nanjin's heart-wrenching screams, he couldn't help but look around nervously.
The room was dim, the candlelight flickered, and Mu Nanjin's ghost-like howling accompanied it. He could no longer sit still, and hurriedly got out of bed and walked out of the room. He saw Commander Meng and a group of guards guarding the door, and then he felt relieved.
Commander Meng bowed and said, "Your Majesty."
The emperor rubbed his head with great fatigue: "What is Mu Nanjin doing?"
This was also what the Queen Mother wanted to know. She was unable to sleep due to the noise, so she had to get up and walk out of the hall, then eavesdrop on what was happening in Mu Nanjin's room.
Of course, it was very quiet inside, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
This made the Queen Mother particularly speechless.
[Wow, there are so many handsome men, all of you come and serve me. ]
[Tian Yuan, give me a massage. If it's comfortable, I'll give you a reward. I'll give you a copper coin, haha.]
Tian Yuan, who lived in the imperial manor, said: "..."
The emperor and all the major officials: "!!!!"
Tian Yuan and Mu Nanjin are together? [Commander, you are responsible for making a cup of tea. It must taste good. If it doesn't taste good, I will use a small whip to serve you, hehe. ]
[National Master, just give me a striptease. ]
Mu Nanjin dreamed that Feng Sinan took off his outer clothes, and hurriedly said: [Wait, don't take it off yet, I want to ask you: Have you shaved your legs? ]
[I have a problem with leg hair, haha.]
The emperor and all the major officials: "!!!!"
Aren't the Imperial Master and the Governor on a business trip? Why are they in the Imperial Manor? Even if they were in the Imperial Manor, they wouldn't have done anything out of line.
The Queen Mother tiptoed to the side hall.
However, the doors and windows were closed, so she couldn't see what was going on inside.
The palace maids following behind were both surprised and puzzled by her actions.
The Queen Mother gently pushed open the door, and unexpectedly Mu Nanjin was standing at the door. She was immediately startled.
"ah--"
The Queen Mother slapped her chest fiercely and said, "Girl Mu, I was almost scared to death by you."
When she pushed the door open, she clearly didn't see anyone inside. Why did Mu Nanjin come to the door so quickly?
Little did she know that even when Mu Nanjin was sleeping, she could still sense the situation around her, so the moment she opened the door, she quickly moved to the door.
If it were anyone else, they would have died long ago.
Mu Nanjin looked confused: "Queen Mother, what are you doing...?"
The Queen Mother said calmly, "I was worried that you might catch a cold, so I came to see if you kicked off the quilt."
Mu Nanjin had no doubt: "Oh, I have a good sleeping posture and I won't kick the quilt."
You won't kick the quilt, but you are constantly complaining.
The Queen Mother asked tentatively, "Are you dreaming?"
"Hmm?" Mu Nanjin nodded slightly.
[Hehe, I had a beautiful dream, there were many handsome men serving me. ]
The emperor and all the leading officials: "..."
No way! ?
They could even hear her words in her dreams? This was too scary.
The Queen Mother coughed lightly and said, "It's okay, you can continue to sleep."
Before leaving, the Queen Mother said one more thing: "Stop dreaming."
Mu Nanjin looked puzzled, but he really didn’t dream anymore.
Everyone can finally have a good sleep.
The next morning, Mu Nanjin came out after breakfast and saw Kan Chaoyan waiting for her to go to the arena.
Kan Chaoyan saw her flushed face and was speechless: "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Yeah." Mu Nanjin looked at the dark circles under his eyes: "Did you not sleep well?"
"I was on patrol last night and didn't sleep."
Mu Nanjin's thoughts filled the entire night, and he couldn't sleep well.
At this time, the emperor and Tian Yuan walked towards them.
Kan Chaoyan and Mu Nanjin saluted the emperor.
[The emperor is not on duty, so why does he have dark circles under his eyes? ]
[Oh, I see. He must have sown seeds all night last night. What a hard-working emperor.]
"puff--"
When it was Commander Gu's turn to be on duty, he tried hard to hold back his laughter.
Although he was not on duty last night, when he came in the morning, Commander Meng told him everything that happened that night.
"Haha." The emperor gave Mu Nanjin a fake smile. If it weren't for the other party's high fighting power, he would have wanted to order someone to drag her away and behead her.
Tian Yuan glanced at Mu Nanjin coldly. Even if there was no mission, he would definitely kill her.
Mu Nanjin sensed that they were unfriendly.
[Weren't they all fine yesterday? How come after one night, they both seem upset with me? Did they take the wrong medicine? Or did someone provoke them?]
[Forget it, I won’t guess anymore.]
[It is said that you should not try to guess what a man is thinking. You will never understand it no matter how hard you try. This is indeed true. ]
The emperor came to Kan Chaoyan and asked, "How is your mother?"
The Queen Mother was in a bad mood yesterday. Mu Nanjin had been bothering her all night and it was unknown whether she had had a good rest.
Kan Chaoyan said: "In reply to the emperor, I just arrived and have not had time to ask about the empress dowager's condition."
The emperor looked at Mu Nanjin and asked, "Do you know the Queen Mother's situation?"
"The Queen Mother is still resting."
This is what the palace maid told Mu Nanjin.
"Then don't go in and disturb her."
The emperor turned to Commander Gu and said, "You stay here to protect the Queen Mother. Remember, no one is allowed to disturb her rest."
Commander Gu: "Yes."
The emperor took his men away.
Kan Chaoyan and Mu Nanjin followed.
…
After yesterday's elimination rounds, there were only fifty-eight eighth-grade warriors left in the competition arena today.
Fifty-eight people still needed to draw lots, and Mu Nanjin still drew number one.
Number One was the first to go on stage. After the competition, she had nothing to do and could do whatever she wanted for the rest of the day.
Therefore, she deliberately drew number one.
The warriors in the eighth-grade martial arts competition arena all prayed that they would not draw number one. In the end, the person who drew number one was a first-class guard.
He wanted to die so much that he had no mood to fight and just admitted defeat.
Mu Nanjin was a little disappointed. The other party didn't even give her the chance to use the moves she learned last night. It was really infuriating.
Xu Cheng and Yang Bo were also very unlucky. They met two military officers who were about to be promoted to ninth-rank warriors, and they were defeated not long after they took to the battlefield.
In the following days, Mu Nanjin drew number one and won every game. She successfully got the first place and Tang Jingrui also got the fifth place. The next step was the challenge.
Mu Nanjin said to the judge: "I want to challenge Zhong Yu, Ai Qi... thirty general flags."
The judge was stunned. It was the first time he saw someone challenging multiple people, and they were people of lower rank than her.
"Are you sure?"
Mu Nanjin nodded.
The judge asked, "Did you call the person over?"
The top ten people must call their friends in advance to avoid delaying others from participating in the competition.
The person being challenged must not refuse, otherwise he will be demoted.
"Yes." Mu Nanjin raised his eyebrows towards the crowd outside the arena: "They are here."
Everyone looked over and saw thirty Jinyiwei dressed in dark blue flying fish uniforms walking into the eighth-grade martial arts competition arena.
Except for Zhong Yu, everyone else looked unhappy.
They originally thought that Mu Nanjin would only challenge Zhong Yu, but they didn't expect that they would also be called.
In the following years, they had no hope of promotion.
Zhong Yu said to Ai Qi and the others: "We will try our best. If we still can't win, at least we tried."
Ai Qi and the others nodded, drew their swords and said, "Mu Nanjin, we know we can't beat you, but we will still try our best to fight you."
Mu Nanjin respected them as men, and she finally pulled out the knife that had never been unsheathed.
Zhong Yu shouted loudly: "Let's go together."
Thirty general flags rushed over and surrounded Mu Nanjin.
It was as if Mu Nanjin had a pair of eyes behind her, and she was able to block any sneak attacks from behind.
She only defends and does not attack.
Zhong Yu felt that she was intentionally letting them.
After ten moves, Mu Nanjin said, "I've let you guys have ten moves. It's my turn now."
She suddenly did a 360-degree spin, and then the sword energy rushed in all directions, knocking thirty generals out of the arena.
The judge shouted, "Mu Baihu wins."
From this moment on, the Jinyiwei below the general flag dared not underestimate Mu Nanjin anymore.
The women among the people cheered loudly: "Mu Baihu is really powerful."
"Mu Baihu won honor for us women. We women should learn from her and work hard to gain status for ourselves."
"That's right."
Mu Nanjin put away her knife and walked out of the field. Tang Jingrui looked at her with a complicated expression.
If Mu Nanjin had shown her true side at the beginning, he might have had different feelings for her, but now everything is impossible.
Xu Cheng and Yang Bo came over with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations to Deputy Captain Mu."
Mu Nanjin said: "The emperor has not announced it yet."
I said this, but I was very happy in my heart.
[Yeah, I am finally a deputy commander. ]
[I can go on missions with the governor now.]
Xu Cheng said, "Do we still need to announce it? From the beginning of the military competition, the top three will be promoted to the first rank. The emperor will not go back on his word in front of so many people, right?"
Yang Bo said: "After being promoted to Qian Hu, you will be able to go on missions with the governor. I heard that the governor's missions are all big missions. I wonder if we will be lucky enough to go on a business trip with the governor."
Xu Cheng smiled and said, "It depends on whether our girl will take us with her."
"By the way, it was tiring to be on a business trip with the governor. I was gone for a month before returning."
Mu Nanjin raised his eyebrows: "The governor is back?"
“I’m back.”
The governor did come back, but as soon as he came back, he received the news that Mu Nanjin was promoted to deputy captain.
When he said that he could go on missions with him after being promoted to a thousand households, he thought it would take Mu Nanjin at least a year and a half to be promoted to a thousand households, but he didn't expect that he would be promoted in just one month.
Mistake. (End of this chapter)
