C4 Even If You Have Something on Your Mind You Can't Forget It

The moon was slightly cold, and the two people's breathing rose and fell one after another. Muzhao had been sleeping soundly all day, but because of the worries in his heart and the addition of a stranger in the house, he had not been sleeping soundly.

"Morning."

The sun was already high in the sky before Muzhao woke up completely. She spent a minute to clear her head, but found that she was still a little muddled, so she let it go and rubbed her eyes before she got up from the bed.

When he pushed open the door, he discovered that Soongyanqing had already woken up and was training in the courtyard.

It seemed that this person's body was much better. He had long since heard that those who loved martial arts had better physical qualities than ordinary people. Now it seemed that it was true.

"En, there's food on the table. Muzhao, go and eat some."

After finishing the last move, the Soongyanqing walked back into the house. He woke up as soon as dawn broke, and Muzhao was still sleeping soundly. Not long after he entered the house, he stayed outside to train, and later he went to buy some food.

This girl was indeed not an ordinary girl. If it were anyone else living in the same room with an unfamiliar man, they would probably be very careful. It was as if she was sleeping in her own room until midnight before waking up.

Muzhao did not know how many things were on his mind. Seeing that Yue Yang had sweated a lot from his martial arts practice, he went to get some water, gave him a towel, and also went to wash himself.

Muzhao passed some salt from the kitchen to rinse his mouth. Although it was not able to completely clean his teeth, it was still a lot cleaner.

She spat out the salt water, twisted a handkerchief and put it on her face. After she was done, she went back into the house.

Inside the room, the Soongyanqing was almost done eating. He sat on the chair and stared at the Muzhao, as if he was thinking about something. However, he did not speak up, and his gaze paused for a moment before moving away.

The Muzhao did not know what he meant, and when she saw the cold atmosphere, she took the initiative to speak to him.

"What are you going to do later?"

She thought that if Soongyanqing was free, she could go with him to visit this place to find out more about it. At the same time, she wanted to see if there were any clues to returning.

"There are still some unfinished business that I need to take you around when I have free time."

It was probably because Muzhao's eyes were blazing and she stared at him so fixedly that he felt uncomfortable. He moved his body and explained to her. Previously, he had already found some clues about Soongqingyu from a few of the people there, but unfortunately, those clues were cut off later on. Right now, he planned to continue investigating, so he could only wait until he was free before going to the market with her.

"It's fine, it's fine. Go ahead and do what you need to do. Just tell me the map here."

Previously, when she went to the thatched cottage, Soongyanqing led the way, but she did not notice that yesterday's herb picking was also done nearby, so it was still a little troublesome for her to go to the market by herself now.

"How about we go together?"

Soongyanqing was afraid that something might happen to her alone, and those people from before didn't know whether they would return or not.

"No need. Although your injuries have healed quite a bit now, I suggest that you take some time to rest."

It was only after eating half of it that Muzhao remembered. Seeing how energetic Soongyanqing was, she almost forgot that he was a patient. She quickly put away the thought of letting him take her for a stroll, telling him to come back early to rest after he was done with his work.

Soongyanqing replied softly as he touched his back. He didn't know if it was because his body was too strong or because Muzhao was skilled in medicine, but she had treated his seemingly serious wounds well. He should be able to recover within a few days.

Thinking about his younger brother, Soongqingyu, whose life and death was still unknown, he felt absent-minded for a moment.

It was also a sunny day, and he received a letter from his mother, saying that his father's birthday was approaching, and that he wished for him to return home and reunite with his family as soon as possible.

Before he left, his master intentionally gave him a pendant, saying that it could protect him from harm. However, on the way, he accidentally lost it, and in order not to be scolded by his master, he found a new craftsman. Although the pendant did not have intelligence, it could still fake the truth.

The journey back to the capital was not a peaceful one. Soongyanqing had always felt that there were people following behind him, but when he passed by an inn, his horse had been poisoned by some unknown powder and died, it seemed like there were people who did not want him to return to the capital smoothly.

Soongyanqing quickly thought of his father who worked in the capital, afraid that something would happen to them. Ignoring their threats, he also bought a horse and galloped home.

It was probably because his actions angered the people behind the scenes. Previously, they had secretly threatened him, but now, they were bold enough to directly assassinate him. After being hunted down three times, the Soongyanqing was no longer a match for a strong martial artist, and he had many injuries on his body.

Soongyanqing desperately escaped out of the encirclement set up by the mysterious person with his injuries. He found a place to hide and stayed there for a few days before he shook himself off from the others and rushed home.

Before he had even reached his home, he had already heard some news, saying that the Prime Minister's Soongchengce had been arrested for corruption and bribed. The family members had also been locked up in the Ministry of Justice, waiting for the emperor's orders.

When Soongyanqing first heard the news, he did not dare believe it. When he arrived near his home, he saw the soldiers guarding the house with the closed doors and the large seal on the door.

His father was from the Humble Class of Soongchengce, and after taking the top scholar position, he brought his mother with him to the capital to work for the top scholar. During his time in office, he had been working diligently to become a good official who was loved and respected by the commoners, and his mother was also a daughter of Qin Se and Ming who gave birth to his younger brother, Soongqingyu.

He went to the manors of some adults his father knew who wished to ask them to advise him to find out the truth, but was stopped at the door before he could see them.

"Our master is currently unable to protect himself, so Young Master should return as soon as possible."

Before Soongyanqing could find evidence of his father's innocence, news came from the Ministry of Justice, saying that Soongchengce had hanged himself in prison. The Emperor was kind, and only punished them with the confiscation of their family property and mansion, but their families and the like were fine.

Furthermore, the Emperor's actions made Soongyanqing more suspicious of the inside information. He took his mother and younger brother to the temporary house that he had rented and went back to gather information.

Although the Soongyanqing did not treat them well, he did not say anything excessive to them either. Before he left, a lord brought him to the side and said a few comforting words, then told him not to pursue the matter any further. It was also because the emperor was kind or else he would not let them off so easily.

Soongyanqing knew that his recent actions had already entered the eyes of others. He was not afraid of them, but for the sake of his mother and brother's safety, he had to lower his head to them.

Soongyanqing was afraid that his mother would not be able to take it anymore, so he rented a carriage and brought his little brother back to the village. He still had some silver coins on him, and at that time, he would be able to make do with buying some houses and some fields.

He had planned a lot for his mother and brother, but how could he have not thought that his brother would be robbed on the way back? The group of people dressed in the same clothes as the people who had tried to assassinate him, and their actions must have been instigated by the mastermind behind the plot against his father.

Soongyanqing searched for many places according to the clues left behind by the black clothed man when his younger brother was robbed. Unfortunately, he almost found them.

The younger brother had not been found yet. His mother had been anxious all day and had been frightened in prison. Her body was getting worse and worse. Finally, she fell ill.

Qing'er, your father did not do that kind of thing. He was wrongly accused, and you have to help him redress his grievances.

Soongfuren laid on the sickbed with tears in her eyes, tugging at Soongyanqing's sleeves without letting go. She understood Soongchengce, he did not dare do such a greedy thing, the so-called evidence was someone deliberately framing their family, that person had successfully killed her husband, and now he had come to harm her son.

"Mother, don't worry about recuperating. I will help father redress his grievances. I will definitely be able to find him."

It was a pity that things were not as good as Soongyanqing thought. Although Soongqingyu did not manage to find his mother's condition, it was getting worse and worse. It was useless asking for a few famous doctors, and in the end, he could only watch his mother die as she lay in his arms.

His mother's last wish before his death was to find his brother and avenge his father, so he didn't dare forget for a moment. After knowing that his brother might be imprisoned here, he rushed to the county town.

This time, Soongyanqing had the foresight to secretly use the medicine left behind by his master to save his life, pretending to die. His subordinates saw that he was covered in blood all over, sprawled on the ground, his breathing became weak, and after stabbing him a few times with the sword, they immediately sent people to throw him into the cemetery.

In fact, even if the Muzhao did not dig him out that day, he would have been able to save himself after the effects of the pill had worn off. But even so, he was still grateful to the Muzhao in his heart, because it was not easy to save a person after encountering such a strange thing in a place like the unmarked cemetery.
