Chapter 623: Intrigue and Trickery
Yan Xiaoqi really didn't come out of the courtyard, Lord Yan and Mrs. Yan still wanted to understand because of Yan Xiaoqi, after all, Nangong Jing was crazy, and the emperor looked at Nangong Jing's current appearance, and it was not easy to investigate.
But everything on the surface is not real, Xiao He successfully brought Nan Ci into the mansion through Yan Xiaoqi's instructions, and took the opportunity to kill Yun'er, Nan Ci changed into Yun'er's appearance and mixed with Yan Xiaoqi's side, and Yan Xiaoqi naively thought that Yun'er had really returned to his hometown in the countryside.
In order to let Yan Xiaoqi help steal Mu Li's jade pendant, Nan Ci conveniently used Yan Xiaoqi's affection for Nangong Jing and asked her to help quietly take away the jade pendant.
"Anan, my cousin rarely comes to me, and I've been at odds with her lately..."
Nan Ci hurriedly persuaded and said: "Xiaoqi, if you really want to stay with the Third Highness, and you don't want the Third Highness to be like this all the time, you have to meet with General Mu, it only takes a while, we will print the jade pendant, and then find workers to make it, and then put the jade pendant back, it will definitely be fine!"
"Is the ghost woman you said really just a hobby of special jade pendants?!"
"Well, the ghost woman was able to cure the Third Highness, but her request for treatment was very strange, and I also accidentally found out that the ghost woman has such a hobby. ”
"Xiaoqi, I can't hesitate anymore, it's been a day, we don't have time!"
"Good. ”
"I immediately wrote to my cousin and asked her to come to the house to see me, and I would invite her to see the lotus flowers when the time came. ”
"We'll take care of the rest!"
Yan Xiaoqi came to the cabinet and took the paper, Nan Ci hurriedly came over to help grind the ink, Yun'er left the yard at this time, and happened to meet Nuo Xiao, she was the maid next to Mrs. Yan, and she was much smarter than Yun'er.
"Xiao He, why are you in the Miss's Courtyard?!"
"Sister Xiao, I came to see Miss Table, and my young lady specially instructed me and Sister Chaoyu to accompany Miss Table. ”
"That's it!"
"Miss Cousin has come to the house. ”
"Really?!"
"Well, chatting with the old lady in the front hall, I came to invite the young lady to the front hall, the dowry of Tianze Kingdom has arrived, and the old man said to let the young lady go and see!"
"Sister Xiao, then you go quickly, I will also go to see my young lady!"
"Hmm. Nuo Xiao hurriedly entered the courtyard, the corners of Xiao He's mouth rose, I didn't expect Mu Li to worry about it so smoothly, it's a little too simple.
Cang Tong took out a roll of paper from his chest and handed it to Mu Liwu, Mu Liwu looked at it, handed the dowry list to Mrs. Yan and said, "Uncle, this is the dowry list sent by Tian Zeguo, you and your uncle take a look!"
"I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Prince to think very thoughtfully!"
"Yes!
"His Royal Highness likes his cousin, so he will naturally think thoughtfully. ”
Chaoyu took Xiao He to the front hall, Mu Liwu looked at Xiao He sideways, but said to Chaoyu: "Chaoyu, my cousin's wedding dress must be ready, and the hijab..."
"Miss, those are ready. ”
"I'm a little too excited. ”
"Qiansheng thinks so much about Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi is still angry with you, but he is really ignorant. ”
"It's okay, my cousin is still young. Mu Li smiled worriedly.
"People who are going to get married, where is it still young?! I think it's your uncle's lax discipline!"
"I'm not strict with discipline, but I usually say it, you can't beat or scold your child!"
Lord Yan hurriedly pulled Mrs. Yan and said, "Hey, Qian Sheng is still there, not to mention that now I am also a first-class minister, don't I want to lose face?!"
"Father, mother!" Yan Xiaoyu's voice came into the hall, and then he saw Yun'er helping Yan Xiaoqi walk in.
"Cousin!" Mu Li shouted.
"Cousin!" Yan Xiaoqi smiled, hurriedly came to Mu Liwu's side, took Mu Liwu's arm and said, "Cousin, I'm sorry..."
"It's okay, we don't need to say sorry between us, you married the prince, and you will be the princess in the future, you can't be like before, playing childish. ”
"Hmm. ”
Nuo Xiao asked softly in Mrs. Yan's ear, "Madam, are you serving the food now?!"
"Let's go!"
Mrs. Yan waved her hand and said, "Xiaoqi, Qiansheng, sit down and eat!"
"Cousin, let's go to see if the lotus flowers are good together after dinner, the lotus flowers in the yard are blooming, but they are beautiful. ”
Mu Liwu looked at Yan Xiaoqi, her eyes were very good-looking, just like Luo Xunxi, with a sea of stars in her eyes.
"Well, my cousin likes it, I'll go with you!"
"Come, the lion's head that Qiansheng loves to eat, and this fish. ”
"This fish is made by Sister Chaoyu!"
"I'll just say, how can the taste be so familiar!"
"Xiao said that Mrs. also likes to eat fish, so I taught this method to Xiao Xiao, and I am ugly!" Chaoyu hurriedly sandwiched the fish meat for Mu Liwu, and specially picked out the fish bones, so that Mu Liwu would not have to worry about eating fish bones.
"Qiansheng, I heard that the city lord of Bu and the county lord of Tianze Country also married Xiao Qi!"
"Yes, when my cousin arrives in Tianze Kingdom, the county lord will leave Tianze Country and go to Xunyang, this is the custom of Tianze Kingdom, and marriage is to go in and out together!"
"It's a strange custom!"
"Uncle, every country has its own beliefs, you can not like it, but you can't disrespect it. ”
"Yes, yes, yes. ”
"Cousin, eat some greens!"
Mu Liwu has a headache when he sees green vegetables, since he came to Lingnan Kingdom, he loves to eat meat, and he seriously suspects that he has gained weight, don't eat it, I still want to, eat it, and I feel that I will be fat, which will affect my temperament.
"Miss Cousin, my young lady loves to eat meat. Xiao He hurriedly said.
"Oh, I forgot, Xiao He told me that my cousin likes to eat meat, what lion's head, barbecue meat, grilled fish..."
"Look at their sisters, where will they be angry, they will get better as soon as they meet. ”
"What my uncle said is, how can we be angry, and we will be fine when we turn our heads, after all, I know my cousin too well. Mu Li smiled worriedly, took out the box in his sleeve, handed it to Yan Xiaoqi and said, "Na, this is a gift for you." ”
"Gift?!" Yan Xiaoqi hurriedly put down the chopsticks and opened the box, and the golden light inside turned out to be a night pearl, but this night pearl was different from other night pearls, there seemed to be something in it.
"Is this the Pearl of the Night?!"
"Hmm, do you like it?!"
"I like it, thank you, cousin!" Yan Xiaoqi looked left and right, Mu Liwu noticed that the maid Yun'er beside Yan Xiaoqi was very curious about this night pearl, his eyes never left, and Mu Liwu didn't think much about it, after all, with the knowledge of a mortal, he would naturally take a second look when he saw such a big night pearl.
"Xi'er's one is not as big as yours. ”
"It turns out that I wasn't the first to receive it. Yan Xiaoran pouted and said, Mu Li smiled and said, "I didn't tell you in advance, I was worried that you would be jealous, but I didn't expect to be jealous." ”
"Is there this in the Naluo County Lord's one!"
Mu Liwu hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, it's just white, the stars in it, I found someone to add it, I know that you like the night sky, this is not like it!"
"Like!"
Lord Yan took a sip of the wine glass, and hurriedly poured the wine glass for Lord Yan, Lord Yan took the chopsticks and gave the dishes to Mrs. Yan, and said casually: "Qiansheng, now that your father's revenge has been avenged, what do you want to do next?!"
"What can I do! Let's play as a general first!"
"Play?!This can't be child's play!"
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about it, now that the Fu family and the Leng family have been assigned to Ningguta, the slave market has also been taken over by the court, and there seems to be nothing to do in the Lingnan Kingdom, I plan to attend the wedding of my cousin and the city lord of Bucheng, so I asked the emperor to rest and go to see my uncle and grandfather. ”
"Mr. Mo is in the Flying Immortal Clan now?!"
"Yes, when Han Yi went to Ningyue Temple before, fortunately, the lark arrived in time, and when Master Yulin left Ningyue Temple, he asked his grandfather to leave with him. Mu Liwu said while holding the vegetables to Mrs. Yan, just when she looked up, she could see Yun'er's expression, her expression was a little abnormal, she kept her head down, Mu Liwu couldn't see her eyes.
"It's okay, your grandfather would have pursued those free lives when he was young, if it weren't for your great-grandfather pulling Uncle Mo, there might not be you. ”
"Uncle, doesn't my grandfather have a brother?!"
Mrs. Yan thought for a while and said: "There is an elder brother and a younger sister, but I don't know their whereabouts, your grandfather is young and vigorous, not to mention extremely smart, your grandfather only likes your grandfather, and your grandfather's brothers and sisters are naturally not treated, so they all went to other places and did not come back." ”
"Oh. Mu Li responded worriedly, and Mrs. Yan hurriedly sandwiched the dishes for Mu Li to avoid this embarrassment.
After the meal, Yan Xiaoran took Mu Liwu to see the lotus, at this time if he wanted to see the lotus, he could only go to the Hidden Heart Pavilion, in order to be able to play more time, he did not take the carriage and walked there.
Yun'er walked behind her, a little far away from them, probably because of her previous look, Mu Liwu was a little suspicious, Yun'er didn't dare to be too abnormal, so she could only follow behind her in a proper manner.
"Cousin, where is Qianyi?!Why didn't I follow you!"
"She's on business today!"
"Qianyi and Junichi next to Mr. Nine are brother and sister. Yan Xiaoqi deliberately looked at Mu Liwu when he said it, and pretended to say: "Cousin, your previous marriage has been abandoned, but there is a suitable candidate!"
"What?!Who do you want to be a matchmaker?!, but it's not who can match General Ben, my cousin said yes. ”
"Cousin, if you do this again, no one will dare to marry!"
"No one is married, anyway, I never thought of getting married again, cousin remembers. Mu Liwu walked in front and turned to look at Yan Xiaoqi and said: "When I was a child, I always liked to dress as a man, and after you liked to follow me, you also said that you would marry me in the future." ”
"Oh, cousin, it was all when I was a child, how can I still take it seriously!"
"Yes, the promise of youth..."Mu Liwu stepped forward and took Yan Xiaoqi's hand and said: "If anyone bullies you, remember to tell me, I will definitely not let her go!" Mu Liwu's eyes were firm, Yan Xiaoqi smiled and said: "How can someone bully me! My cousin is a general, and the future husband is the son of Tianze Kingdom." ”
"If you don't want to get married, I can solve all your worries for you, as long as you remember, your cousin will always protect you. ”
"Cousin!" Yan Xiaoqi was a little wet from the corner of his eyes, maybe he was moved by Mu Liwu, he had always felt that Mu Liwu was better than himself, but now that he is a general, he can't compare to him.
