Chapter 64: Do You Want Me or Him 1
When Nan Xue walked into the East Garden of Yuanshuang Pavilion, she saw Mu Cheng leaning against the door of the wing room in a middle coat and panting slightly, she couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly went over to help Mu Cheng, while saying:
"Shizi, why don't you call me when you get up, what should I do if you fall? Mingshu, Mingshu-"
Mingshu ran in response, and Nan Xue scolded: "Didn't you let you take a good look at the prince?"
"Okay, okay, I said that this son of the world is like a wasted person," Mu Cheng's pale face revealed a rare smile, "It just rained, and this son felt a little cold, and he just remembered to put on a piece of clothing, don't blame Mingshu." β
Mingshu took out a simple and unpretentious green shirt in the closet, "Childe wants this?" said as he lifted his clothes and put them on him, a cyan ribbon suddenly fell to the ground, Mingshu picked up the ribbon and said strangely:
"Why does this ribbon look so much like a woman's headband?"
Nan Xue bumped Mingshu's elbow and signaled him to silence, Mingshu was stunned, turned his head and saw Mu Cheng looking at the hairband slightly distracted, and couldn't help but be surprised. Nanxue took the hairband and said with a smile:
"I don't know if it was the girl who did the laundry, and actually put the hairband into the clothes of the son. As he spoke, he threw the headband into the paper basket beside him.
"Give it to me. He said lightly, but his tone was stubborn.
Nan Xue turned her head, her eyes were slightly red, "Shizi is a person who has come back from the ghost gate, why can't he let go of it?
Mingshu picked up the hairband and put it on Mu Cheng's hand, and said in a snort: "Young master, Mingshu doesn't understand love things, but that Mei Ziyan has bullied you repeatedly, why can't you give up thinking of her?"
I hadn't heard this name for a long time, but now when I heard it, my heart still couldn't help skipping two beats, he looked at the plane tree outside the window, and said softly:
"She bullied me? Why don't I know ......?"
"At that time, you fainted, of course I didn't know that she had slighted you!" Ming Shu said indignantly, telling in detail what happened at the palace gate that day, Mu Cheng's eyes drifted far away, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and said:
"You think I'm at a loss?"
Isn't it a loss to be eaten by someone who eats tofu in large gulps? Mingshu scratched his head and couldn't figure it out.
"Do you think she would be willing to do this if she was someone else?" Mu Cheng stretched out the hairband in his hand, smoothing out the wrinkles on it, still remembering that this hairband was when she didn't return all night, only the blue bird next to her flew back with the headband and landed on the window edge of his study in Yuanshuang Pavilion, at that time he was startled, and took a few guards to find her in the Rejuvenation Valley with the blue bird.
Chu Chu was pitiful and she was held in the arms of the Xijon boy, but her secret worries turned into heartburn.
At this time, Zhuang Lian reported in a low voice outside: "Shizi, someone has come to the palace." β
Mingshu helped Mu Cheng lean against the bed rail, pulled the thin quilt over his body, and at this time, when someone stepped into the house, Mingshu only smelled a fragrance of orchids as clear as the wind. Mu Cheng raised his eyes and looked at Shen Biyan, who was dressed as a man in front of him, and his eyes were faintly noncommittal. Shen Biyan's eyes froze, and she walked up to him and said:
"Yunzhi, I'm coming to see you, aren't you happy at all?"
"Concubine Bi is coming, and her subordinates are sick, and it is inconvenient to welcome her, so she has lost her courtesy. He said to the Ming Shu on the side: "Don't you still serve tea to Niangniang?"
After Mingshu went down, Shen Biyan came to him and said, "You are angry with me, I don't care, it's just that you are a mother, do you want to clear up the relationship between us?"
He looked at her with a wry smile: "Can you clear it?"
She was stunned for a moment, only to hear him say again: "I'm just reminding myself that my identity is different from you after all, so don't mess with your generation." β
"Yunzhi!" her face changed, and her eyes were full of grief and indignation, "I'm not the emperor's person, you know it." The emperor has promised me that if you want, I, I will ......"
Mu Cheng suddenly interrupted her and said, "Bi Yan, I have already married a wife. β
"What kind of marriage is without worship?" her eyes widened, her eyes filled with tears, "Do you hate me because of the incident in Jinlan Palace?" I know that I was wrong, it was Hengqing who lobbied me in every possible way......
His eyes were clear, he smiled, sighed, and said, "Bi Yan, in fact, you will live well if you stay in the palace." You're very powerful, really, if you were to be a man, I would never be your match. She's not like you, she's shrewd on the surface, her words are mean and to the point, and she is even better at calculating. What's the biggest difference between you and her, you know?"
He stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on Shen Biyan's face and said, "No matter how unscrupulous she is, it's all to protect the people around her, not for herself." Compared to you, she is a stupid woman, but she is one in a million. β
"She's the daughter of your father's enemy!Mu Cheng, have you forgotten?!" she hysterically pulled his hand away and shouted loudly.
"I haven't forgotten. I just forgot that my father was not born when she died in that war. He laughed to himself, "I was angry with her and lied to her, so I deserved to lose her." β
For half a year, he endured the pain of illness, and many sleepless nights he would always think about the past, and many things gradually emerged clearly. What followed was an uncontrollable longing, and there were traces of her everywhere in the palace, and that kind of seeing things and thinking about people could always make him return to his heart.
"I don't hate you either, I can only hate myself if I want to hate. He calmly said to her, "I'm sorry, Bi Li, you shouldn't be a reward, and you may not be happy with me." β
She hid the tears from her eyes and said word by word, "What if I insist?"
At this time, Bai Xuan coughed lightly at the door and said, "Master, Qingzhao has something important to report." With that, he pushed Qing Zhao forward, and Qing Zhao broke in embarrassed. Mu Cheng didn't get angry, just quietly looked at Shen Biyan, who had not dried his tears, and said:
"Even if Hengqing succeeds that day, I will never let her marry Hengqing. Bai Xuan, send Concubine Bi back to the palace. β
After Bai Xuan sent Shen Biyan away, Qing Zhao said with a solemn expression: "Master, don't forget the golden cicada Gu raised in the pavilion today, the body of the golden cicada Gu raised in the pavilion suddenly burst and died at three o'clock in the afternoon, it should be that the Zi Gu was removed......
Mu Cheng's body trembled violently, and he said in disbelief: "You mean-impossible, how could he have the ability to do this?!unless-"
Unless something unimaginable happens...... Mu Cheng's heart was like falling into ice and snow, staring at Qing Zhao and asking:
"Is there any news about them over there?"
"The news seems to have been blocked, and almost all of our secret halls in Xijon have been wiped out overnight, and the remaining one or two more hidden ones dare not act rashly, it should be the work of the Agni Sect. β
Mu Cheng struggled to get out of bed, "Mingshu, Mingshu-" Mingshu walked in in response, "Immediately change my clothes, Qingzhao, prepare the carriage, let the fifty Wuyi guards sneak into Xirong respectively, and let Bai Xuan and Suzaku go to contact Helian Jialun, the seventh prince of Xirong Ancheng, and say that he needs help in important matters, and ask him to send troops to search for the main altar of the Agni Sect." conditions, we can talk slowly. β
"Young master, are you going to Xirong?" Ming Shu was anxious, pulled Qing Zhao and said: "You persuade Gongzi, don't say that he will go to Xirong with a body like this, even if he leaves Tiandu......!
"Mingshu, when will it be your turn to talk more about my business?!" he interrupted coldly, waving his hand at Qing Zhao, "Go ahead, leave tonight at the latest." β
"Yes, master. β
Mingshu's eyes turned red, and he turned around and left without saying a word, Mu Cheng called out to him, his voice with a hint of sour nasalness, and said:
"What do you have the young master's instructions? If not, Mingshu will go and get some medicinal herbs and luggage, there are a lot of things to prepare...... Young master rest assured, no matter how unhappy Mingshu is, he will follow the young master. β
Mu Cheng smiled, "Mingshu, remember to bring that tanuki." β
Her little fox, obviously she had packed up her baggage that night and was ready to take it away, but it was curled up in a warm hut made for it by the Xiyuan Zhuang of Yuanshuang Pavilion and refused to come out, and she had no choice but to leave like this when time was pressing.
Mu Cheng was seriously injured by the three whips of the blue dragon vine, and he was lying on the bed and was about to survive, and when his consciousness wandered, it was the cry of the civet cat that woke him up.
He raised a pet for her for half a year, and he naturally wanted to get this favor back.
Leaning back on the cushions of the carriage, he stroked the soft fur of the tanuki in his arms, and the little raccoon croaked softly and burrowed into his arms. He lifted the curtain and saw that the autumn wind swept through a few fallen leaves in front of the window, and the autumn was cool, and I don't know if she is doing well now?
"I said that I would give her a gift this winter, and you said, I can't make it?" he smiled softly at the little fox, "You say, did she think of you?
The carriage was very bumpy, and it took more than half a month to go. When I stepped into the border of Xirong, it was already the golden autumn of October, and I walked for another seven or eight days before I arrived at Anseong.
Ancheng is very imposing, its imperial city is made of white marble polished into bricks or other shapes, and the jade halls are built one by one. Several of the main streets outside the Imperial City are also lively, but guards armed with knives and guns can be seen patrolling everywhere.
Qing Zhao found an inn with a relatively spacious faΓ§ade to stay, and when Mu Cheng got out of the carriage, he saw the simple wooden wheelchair in front of Ming Shu, and couldn't help but turn blue, pointing to the chair and saying:
"Who told you to bring this?!"
Mingshu lowered his head and muttered: "Young master, don't hide it from Mingshu, in the past 20 days, your injury will be painful in the middle of the night, and the doctor said that you can't have any more strain, and you should be careful when walking, and you have to sit on this chair when it hurts too much." β
"Qing Zhao, pack up the book and send it back to Yiluo!" he flicked his sleeves and walked into the inn.
