Mu Cheng turned around and said expressionlessly to the servant standing with his hands hanging on the side: "You go and wake her up, just say that the fourth son is dizzy and ringing in his ears after waking up - if you can't wake her up, you can go to the account room to get this month's money and leave." ”

The servant shuddered, and Mu Yu, who was eating porridge, almost didn't squirt out the contents of his mouth, he looked at his third brother, and said hesitantly: "Third brother, I don't seem to have the symptoms you said......

I just can't see that woman sleeping so comfortably, Mu Cheng said to himself secretly. The servant really did not fail in his mission, and after a while, Mei Ziyan pushed the door in with sleepy eyes, and asked Mu Yu:

"Fourth son, where are you unwell?"

"I was a little dizzy just now," Mu Yu glanced at Mu Cheng, "It's much better now." ”

Mei Ziyan finished taking the pulse and calmly told Mu Yu to rest more, her body was no longer in serious trouble, and the red spots on Mu Yu's body began to fade gradually.

"Persimmon, I cured the fourth son, how can you thank me?" asked Mei Ziyan as she walked out of the house, pulling Mu Cheng's sleeve.

"What do you want?" Mu Cheng looked at her with a smile, "You saved Mu Yu, but the account between me and you has not yet been settled." ”

"Except that half of the palace can be exchanged for two medicine mountains, persimmon might as well consider marrying me, marry me, my medicine mountain is yours, and half of your palace is still yours!" Mei Ziyan looked at Mu Cheng with a smile that was three points true and seven points false, and Mu Cheng said clearly:

"Mei Ziyan, do you really marry me? I know that my life will not be long, the palace where I married my other half is yours, and the medicine mountain that passed through my hand is still yours, this abacus is really amazing!"

"Then you're rejecting my proposal!"

"If you cure a person, you will take the opportunity to marry yourself, you won't be so unpopular! Besides, isn't the county lord of Xuanyang your friend?

"Oh well. Mei Ziyan said sullenly, "I only promised His Royal Highness King Shou to heal you alone, but I never promised to heal Mu Yu." I went back and took away all the ointments that Mu Yu had taken, and then we would write them off for the two days of sleeplessness. After that, she turned around depressedly and wanted to push the door into the house, but Mu Cheng grabbed her:

"Mei Ziyan, what about your medical ethics?"

Mei Ziyan looked at Mu Cheng with wide eyes, "Persimmon, do I have medical ethics, why don't I know about it?"

Mu Cheng was angry, and heard Mei Ziyan mutter: "That ointment was made by me who spent a lot of effort and spent a year collecting medicines, how can I give it away at a loss?"

"Another wish. You want me to marry you, it's a joke. ”

Mei Ziyan smiled and slowly broke away from his hand, that smile made Mu Cheng feel that she was about to fall into her insidious conspiracy again, she said:

"Sure to cash in?"

"Definitely. ”

"I heard that the famous Yaoqin song "Fumei" you played was rumored to be a must in the sky, and when you were sixteen years old, you were shocked by this music skill, and even the court musician Feng Yuan was full of praise, saying that you far surpassed himself back then. Is this true?"

Mu Cheng nodded, at that time he was young and vigorous, proficient in the six arts, and especially liked to stroke the qin. But this is not too old, and when he knows his condition, the envious and adoring gazes of these people can no longer arouse half of his enthusiasm.

He didn't play the yaoqin for many years.

"I've been on the piano for a few years. He said.

"Are you unwilling or don't dare? Could it be that it is actually difficult to live up to the fame, and the famous Suide prince is just a deception and a thief, and even inferior to Xiao Jinqing in the Furong account?"

"Do you appreciate Xiao Jinqing?" he smiled coldly, half-narrowed his eyes and said, "It's a pity that his Gonghou still hasn't obtained the essence of the gods." ”

"Then it's settled. Three days later, on the roof terrace of the Pillow Building, I waited for the Prince of Suide to play a song "Fumei" for me. Without giving him half a chance to hesitate and regret it, she turned around and walked towards the dumb slave who had been waiting under the locust tree for a long time, and left together.

In the 11th month of the lunar calendar, the weather is getting colder.

Last night there was a heavy snowfall, this morning Tong'an Street cleared the snow early as ever as prosperous and lively, pillow Bilou, Yuelao Temple and Guozijian are all on this street, plus the merchants and vendors from other places like to set up stalls on Tong'an Street to do business, so unless it is a rainstorm, otherwise this Tong'an Street will never be quiet and deserted.

Mei Ziyan pulled the dumb slave out early in the morning, saying that she wanted to buy him a saber. I saw two companies selling scimitars in a row, the blade was sharp and silvery, but Mei Ziyan still felt that the knife was like a prop in the troupe, and it seemed to be better used to decorate. The words in the mouths of the two stall owners are the same:

"Girl, a famous knife is a hero, my knife is Xirong's divine soldier's 'breaking army' - you see the gem on this knife handle is Xirong's precious obsidian, unique, and it can't be faked......"

Mei Ziyan blinked, "Is it the legendary commander of Xirong Xiongshi, the divine soldier who drank blood and devoured bones as soon as the blade came out?

"If you meet the girl and this little brother, you can enjoy five hundred taels. ”

Mei Ziyan picked up another knife, "I don't know if your 'broken army' will sharpen iron like clay on this big knife?"

She sneered, "It's not easy to buy a broken knife for five hundred taels to go back to chop melons and vegetables, is this girl so easy to fool? Dumb slave, let's go, can't we find a good knife to buy this day?"

She picked up the dumb slave and left, and then walked around for a long time, and the people who came and went were all selling scimitars and claiming to be "breaking the army", she couldn't help but be angry, "Dumb slave, your so-called 'broken army' in Xijon is really so powerful, as long as you sell scimitars, it is called a broken army, I think it's almost the same as a broken knife!"

"The broken army is made of thousand-year-old black iron in the extremely cold land, and has been passed down by more than ten generations of emperors in the Helian clan, drinking blood and devouring countless bones, blowing hair and breaking hair, killing people like hemp, and non-brave warriors cannot control it. ”

Mei Ziyan raised her head and looked in the direction where the voice came from, it turned out that someone had set up a storytelling stall on the street, and it was Xirong Baodao who broke the army, so she said to the dumb slave: "This person knows better than you, you look at you, you are from Xirong, and you don't know anything." ”

She squeezed into the crowd to listen to the story, and the storyteller said: "Helian Yue, the former lord of Xirong, was a natural martial arts wizard, and it is said that at the age of fifteen, he was able to use the Thirteen Styles of Heavenly Wolf Slashing, and at the age of sixteen, he put down the rebellion of several tribes in the south of Xirong. However, he was indifferent, arrogant, and used torture to govern the government strictly, and I don't know how many ministers and people died under his moody violence. At that time, his uncle, who is the current lord of Xirong, Helian Sen, continued to collect the secret books of martial arts in the world and all kinds of beautiful women to give him, and gradually Helian Yue put the power in his hands in the hands of Helian Sen, Helian Sen deceived the upper and lower to control the government, and secretly replaced all the Xirong army with his own people, and then succeeded in forcing the palace in one fell swoop, so that he could ascend to the position of the lord of the country. ”

"No, no," the listener said strangely, "Isn't this Helian Yue a young hero, how can he not be defenseless and resistant? Could it be that he is just like Wu Wangfu in the Spring and Autumn Period and misled the country because of the calamity?"

"No, no, no. You don't know this brother, this Helian Yue is not close to women in his life, there are only one concubine and two concubines in the harem, and there is nothing to do, Helian Sen sent him Meiji is just a decoration in the harem; Helian Yue is a martial arts wizard, but unfortunately he is also a martial arts idiot, obsessed with martial arts and does not ask about the government, mistakenly believes in villains and forgets that there is no father and son in the court, let alone uncles and nephews. It is said that it was Helian Yue who had an accident when he was practicing martial arts, and Helian Sen took advantage of that opportunity, so it led to defeat and destruction. That Broken Army Divine Soldier was also missing at that time......"

Mei Ziyan wanted to continue listening, but the dumb slave's hand had already grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the crowd, and pulled her forward with a pale face, Mei Ziyan exclaimed bitterly:

"Dumb slave, what are you doing here? You hurt my aunt's hand!"

The dumb slave was silent, and pulled her for a while before stopping, turned to look at her and said with his lips: "Whatever you want to know? I can tell you! Why hearsay?!"

Mei Ziyan frowned and rubbed her hands, the dumb slave pursed her lips tightly, and the dark eyes swelled with pain, anger or sorrow, she was stunned, and just wanted to say something, when she suddenly heard a voice behind her ask:

"You two, do you need to buy a knife?"
