To protect Huanhuan and Tuantuan from the harm of black magic in the future, she still agreed to let the two children learn it.
Upon learning that Long Qian had come to Chongyi Hall and was talking in Fu Yunchen's study, she took Huanhuan and Tuantuan to find them.
The atmosphere in the study was just like it had been in the council chamber the night before, making one feel oppressed to the core.
Mu Run, holding Huanhuan and Tuantuan's hands, sensed the terrifying atmosphere emanating from the crack in the door and looked down at the two children.
Tuantuan is bad at talking and slow to react; she won't do.
Huanhuan is quick-witted and reacts very fast.
Finally, he signaled to Huanhuan to take action.
Huanhuan understood, took out a large tangerine from her sleeve, and pushed the door open to go inside.
"Dad, can you peel an orange for Huanhuan?" She had her hair in a ponytail and was wearing a yellow plum-colored high-waisted ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), looking cute and pretty.
Even the person in the worst mood can't help but smile when they see Huanhuan.
Fu Yunchen, who was originally domineering and sharp, was like a cold snowflake meeting the warm sun, becoming as gentle as a spring breeze.
Long Qian, like a kind and harmless uncle, looked at Huanhuan with expectant eyes, "Huanhuan, do you still remember your uncle?"
Huanhuan nodded, "I remember, when did Uncle come?"
Long Qian replied, "Yesterday, but your father wouldn't let me see you, and I was very sad."
"Uncle, don't be sad. Here's a sweet orange for you." Huanhuan handed the orange in her hand to Long Qian.
After receiving the tangerines, Long Qian gave Fu Yunchen a smug smile.
Fu Yunchen frowned slightly, then said to Tian Tian, "How about Huanhuan feeds Daddy for dinner?"
Huanhuan's eyes lit up. "Okay, okay!"
Upon hearing that Fu Yunchen would be fed by Huanhuan, Long Qian immediately became depressed again.
Mu Run listened to the childish conversation inside, speechless for a moment, and then took Tuan Tuan's hand and went into the study.
He first bowed to Fu Yunchen, then gave a half-bow to Long Qian, saying, "Thank you for the gifts, especially for the two children. They both love them."
Long Qian returned the greeting, saying, "Sister-in-law, you're too kind."
Fu Yunchen said, "Please sit down. Tuantuan, come to Daddy's."
Tuantuan glanced at Murun.
Mu Run patted his little shoulder, "Go ahead."
Fu Yunchen held the two children in his arms, one on each side, and looked at Long Qian.
Long Qian immediately puffed up her cheeks in anger, "I'll have a pair of kids too!"
Fu Yunchen said, "Let's not talk about a couple. If you can have a child in a year, I'll promise you one thing."
"Is this true?" Long Qian stood up from his chair.
“Your sister-in-law and two children can vouch for this,” Fu Yunchen said.
“Okay, if I have a child, Huanhuan will have to learn black magic from me,” Long Qian said.
Fu Yunchen nodded. "I agree."
Mu Run looked at the two brothers, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Should we reconsider the matter of having children? Excluding the ten months of pregnancy, there are only two months left. Qian Di should find a wife first, and then try to conceive."
"There's no need to find a wife to have children, right? Any woman will do, as long as she can give birth." Long Qian looked at Mu Run, "How about you find me one, sister-in-law?"
Mu Run: "...No, I won't get involved in this. However, I agree to Huanhuan learning things from you."
Upon hearing this, Long Qian became happy again.
Manager Yang rushed over.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers from Zhongjin have come up from the north cliff and attacked the mountain stronghold."
"What?" Fu Yunchen's expression turned serious.
Mu Run hurried over and pulled Huanhuan and Tuantuan into her arms, then said to Fu Yunchen, "Go quickly."
Fu Yunchen nodded and glanced at Long Qian.
Long Qian followed him.
Looking at the two of them, especially with Long Qian, the Black Witch King, present, Mu Run wasn't too worried.
"Even when beating a dog, you have to be a close brother."
Huanhuan said, "Mom, I want to go and see too."
"Don't cause trouble, come back with your mother." Mu Run led the two children back to Zhengxiang Garden.
At the foot of Chongyi Peak, a woman dressed as a maid from Chongyi Hall secretly hid in a thicket.
This woman was Xiaocao, who had followed Qiaoyu back to the prefecture a few days earlier.
Yesterday, Xiaocao accompanied Qiaoyu to the wedding banquet. When Qiaoyu left, she secretly stayed behind and stole a set of maid's clothes, which she hid here.
Liu Lao Er sent her a firework signal, and she then contacted the spies in Bianyun Village. Only then did she learn that a killing formation had been set up on Chongyang Mountain, and she could not enter the mountain. She could only break the killing formation first.
At the bottom of the cliff on the north side, she found several patches of fresh soil. Upon digging them up, she discovered that each patch contained several mud tigers and wood wolves. These were arranged according to the principles of the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams, forming defensive and killing formations.
The little grass destroyed all these bases, and then sent a message to the Jin soldiers to attack the mountain.
But she had another purpose.
After seeing Fu Yunchen lead his men down Chongyi Peak, Xiaocao immediately went up to him.
Long Qian followed Fu Yunchen, and as they walked, he looked back at the mountain peak and saw a maidservant climbing up the mountain.
"Brother, I'm hungry. Can we go back and get something to eat first?"
"...Go."
"Here you go. If I don't arrive in time, release them. They will kill instantly upon contact with blood. Control them with a Gu flute or Gu whistle."
"Take it."
"It's free, I'm not charging you anything." Long Qian insisted on giving it to Fu Yunchen. "It's because you're my brother. I wouldn't be this generous to others."
"What kind of crazy ideas are you having? If you dare to touch your sister-in-law, nephew, or niece, I won't let you off the hook."
"No, didn't we already agree on that? I'm just hungry, I'm going to get something to eat."
"Don't try anything else."
"Brother trusts brother, see you in a bit."
"..."
Fu Yunchen led his men and continued rapidly toward the mountain stronghold.
Long Qian curled his lips into a smile, gazing at the maid who was almost at the top of the mountain. He licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, adding a touch of brilliance to her beautiful features.
A terrifying killing intent suddenly emanated from his body, and the surrounding birds, snakes, rats, and insects scattered in all directions...
Huanhuan and Tuantuan were playing with the toys that Long Qian had brought them in the garden.
Mu Runze and Cai Shi were in the storeroom, processing the gifts received at the wedding. Apart from some that she had received, most of them were given on the wedding day.
The warehouse is about to be completely full.
"Didn't Qiaoyu send a gift? Why is there another one?" Madam Cai held up a red box and showed it to Mu Run.
Mu Run took the box. "The two boxes are the same."
Remove the red ribbon tied on top.
When I opened the lid, it felt as if something was being cut open along with it.
A strong, grayish stench emanated from the box.
Immediately, Mu Run felt his vision go black and hurriedly said to Cai Shi, "Run—!"
Instead of moving, Madam Cai and her maids went forward to check on Mu Run's condition.
But as soon as he came into contact with the gray, foul odor, he immediately fainted!
A gray, foul odor spread throughout Chongyi Hall.
After smelling the stench, everyone in Chongyi Hall fainted one after another.
The little grass entered Chongyi Hall and followed the source of the stench.
Along with the grass, following the stench, came another person—Mo Xiaowan!
