Chapter 5 Transactions
Mo Chenghuan's heart sank, and he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.
"The emperor is staying with me, just to find a quiet place," Qi Yu's tears rained down, making people pity.
Qi Yu told the truth, but deliberately omitted the main point.
"I see," Mo Chenghuan paused, and then asked, "You love him very much?"
Qi Yu's deep feelings for Dongtianji made Mo Chenghuan feel very complicated, Qi Yu is her friend, Dongtianji is her lover, no matter who this kind of thing happens, it will be uncomfortable, and she knows better that Dongtianji is just using Qi Yu, and Qi Yu is really true to Dongtianji.
"The person he loves is you," the emperor of the East Tianji generation, the three thousand beauties of the harem, can use a love word on him, it is almost impossible.
"He can have countless women in this life......" Mo Chenghuan tried to explain.
"Lovely people are the only one in this life...... Qi Yu has to admit that she is a little jealous, Mo Chenghuan is her best friend, she loves Mo Chenghuan just as she loves Dongtianji, she said that these two people are very similar, and there is a kind of magic that fascinates her.
Mo Chenghuan didn't know how to deal with this, she couldn't tell Qi Yu the truth, just as she couldn't stop Dong Tianji from planting evil consequences on Qi Yu.
"I don't know if he loves me only in this life, but I know that I only have one friend with you now, and I will spend my life protecting you. "Mo Chenghuan will not deny the facts that everyone knows, she can only guarantee that she will never hurt Qi Yu, this is what she owes Qi Yu, and what Dongtian owes Qi Yu extremely much, she will spend her life to pay it back, until one of them dies.
Qi Yu got the most perfect answer in the world, she knew that Dongtianji didn't love her, but now she knew that there was still Mo Chenghuan who loved her in this world, and that was enough, even if everyone was using her, at least from now on there was someone who really loved her, and that was enough.
Mo Chenghuan saw Qi Yu's smiling face, and she was relieved.
"You go back first, I'll find a solution as soon as possible," Mo Chenghuan's mind was a mess, she needed space for her to calm down.
"Okay," Qi Yu believed Mo Chenghuan and didn't ask much.
After Qi Yu left, Mo Chenghuan locked himself up for an afternoon, the little palace and the little eunuch in the courtyard were in a hurry, but they couldn't do anything, fortunately Mo Chenghuan released himself before dinner.
The impatient people in the courtyard didn't dare to ask more questions after they saw Mo Chenghuan come out, for fear of interrupting Mo Chenghuan's train of thought, so they could only pretend to be casual and serve Mo Chenghuan for dinner.
After dinner, Mo Chenghuan rinsed his mouth with tea, and calmly called Ning Xiang: "Ning Xiang, go to Luyun Pavilion and invite Lu Miaoren." β
The east courtyard is at the corner of the main courtyard of Chanxin Garden, and it takes less than a stick of incense to come and go.
"What is the master looking for me?" Ning Xiang took Lu Wanjuan to Mo Chenghuan's room and quietly withdrew, seeing that Mo Chenghuan was so cautious, she naturally understood that Mo Chenghuan had something important to discuss with her.
"You know about Qi Yuxiu becoming a spirit concubine," Mo Chenghuan wanted to know if Lu Wanjuan had a sense of danger.
"The master is talking about the pregnancy of the spirit master? Lu Wanjuan's contact with Qi Yu is not deep, but she can also analyze that the child is a disaster for Qi Yu at this moment, because a person who is ready to have a child will inevitably be very important to his body, and Qi Yu has no intention of recuperating his body at all, a few days ago she also saw Qi Yu eating spicy jerky, spicy jerky is a specialty of the northwest region of Canglei, very delicious, but when this spicy jerky is made, the condiment is not good for people who are preparing for pregnancy, so people who are preparing for pregnancy or pregnancy must avoid it, which is common sense that all Canglei people know.
Mo Chenghuan nodded with satisfaction, beckoned Lu Wanjuan to whisper to her, Lu Wanjuan left after she understood, but she did not return to her courtyard, but Liuyan Palace.
She went to pass the word for Mo Chenghuan, and when she left, she also brought the ginseng and deer antler that Mo Chenghuan asked her to bring.
The reason why Mo Chenghuan didn't go by himself, but asked Lu Wanjuan to pass it on from generation to generation, just to avoid suspicion, Qi Yu had already come to Mo Chenghuan's courtyard this morning, and it would be suspicious if they met twice in the same day.
And Mo Chenghuan asked Lu Wanjuan to pass on the words very simply, just two words: "Don't worry." β
Qi Yu is extremely smart, and when he gets information like Mo Chenghuan, he naturally understands what he should do next.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess the other party's intentions, to create the illusion of pregnancy for Qi Yu, and then publicize it, and finally find an opportunity to debunk it and charge Qi Yu with a crime of bullying, but what they didn't expect was that Qi Yu could find out that this was a trap in the first place, because Qi Yu was fortunate to be summoned by Dongtianji for more than a year, and until now he is still perfect.
Now that they know the other party's purpose, it is not difficult to solve it at all, and they only need to create an accident.
Mo Chenghuan, who thought of the solution, was relieved, as soon as her nerves relaxed, sleepiness came, she had to nourish her spirits, because after she woke up, she had to raise her spirit to deal with Chu Luoluo.
The next day, Mo Chenghuan went to Zhijing Palace and met an "old friend", although the other party did not welcome her so kindly.
Zhijing Palace, Zixuan Pavilion
"How can Venerable Mo Yuxiu have time to visit my desolate Zixuan Pavilion!" Xue Shicai has accumulated too much resentment towards Mo Chenghuan, and of course she will not give Mo Chenghuan much good look, in other words, she will not give a good face to whoever comes, the important thing is that she also knows that she does not dare to do anything to her.
Her uncle told her that as long as Lou Yuyu was in Canglei for a day, no one would dare to touch her, or Lou Yuyu was her barrier, able to block all external harm for her, including Mo Chenghuan, so she dared to sneer at Mo Chenghuan without fear.
Sure enough, Mo Chenghuan could only smile in the face of her cynicism.
"Where is Xue Miaoren, everyone came together, I just want to catch up with Xue Miaoren," to be honest, I will be a little dissatisfied with being so sarcastic by Xue Shicai, but as long as I think in my heart that Xue Shicai will not be proud for too long anyway, I will slowly stop worrying about her.
"Don't pretend, if you have anything to say, I don't want to see you!" Xue Shicai's patience has long been exhausted by this simple and broken yard and this boring life, how can he still have the heart to deal with Mo Chenghuan.
"I just wanted to say...... Let's make a deal. Mo Chenghuan originally wanted to be polite with Xue Shicai, but since she didn't want to, Mo Chenghuan had to get straight to the point.
"Do you want Lou Yuyu?" The only reason Xue Shicai could think of was Lou Yuyu in her hand, which was the trump card that everyone wanted.
Mo Chenghuan nodded honestly.
"Impossible," this is her trump card to save her life, and she will not exchange it for anything.
"I didn't say I was going to snatch it, I just need to borrow him for a few days, and I will return it when I run out," Mo Chenghuan also counted on Lou Yuyu to pull out Xue Shijing, the old fox, through Xue Shicai, how could she be willing to snatch him away.
"What can you give me?" she shouldn't have agreed, but her curiosity prevented her from refusing.
"What do you want? It's nothing more than climbing up, if you're willing to take a hand, I can make you struggle for a few less years," it's not difficult to give Xue Shicai a little sweetness.
Xue Shicai's face changed instantly, she believed Mo Chenghuan's words, in other words, Mo Chenghuan's conditions were too tempting, and she had no reason to refuse.
"What do you want me to do?" Xue Shicai couldn't wait to know the price she had to pay.
"It's nothing, I'll help you achieve your goal, and then tell you slowly," Mo Chenghuan threw the bait.
Xue Shicai stared at Mo Chenghuan tightly, for fear that Mo Chenghuan would disappear in the blink of an eye.
"If Xue Miaoren doesn't speak, I'll let you agree to the deal," Mo Chenghuan knew that Xue Shicai would not refuse, but she also had to confirm the answer, so that she could find a reason to make the first move after Xue Shicai repented.
"Help me achieve my goal, aren't you afraid that I will get benefits and regret it?" Xue Shicai didn't know where Mo Chenghuan got the courage to believe in her enemy.
"I have a way to send you up, and naturally I have a way to pull you down," Mo Chenghuan's words were to scare Xue Shicai, although she had a way to drag Xue Shicai down, but not only would he not do this, she would continue to hold Xue Shicai to a high place, because only Xue Shicai thought that she could control the East Heavenly Pole and lead out the old fox Xue Shijing.
Xue Shicai trembled without a trace, unfortunately, it was caught by Mo Chenghuan's sharp gaze, and no matter how obvious it was, Xue Shicai had already believed her words.
"When will you ......" Xue Shicai couldn't wait but didn't dare to say it explicitly.
"Give me two days," Mo Chenghuan was also anxious, and her time did not allow her to delay for so long.
"Okay," Xue Shicai didn't believe Mo Chenghuan, but she knew that Mo Chenghuan didn't dare to break his promise.
A day later, Mo Chenghuan prepared Xue Shicai in advance, and she asked Xue Shicai to prepare for her talent in Chunfeng Garden.
She made an appointment with Dongtianji to enjoy the cool in the Spring Breeze Garden, and she would guide Dongtianji to see Xue Shicai, but before meeting Xue Shicai, Dongtianji didn't know who greeted him, he could only roughly guess that he would be Mo Chenghuan's gift today.
Mo Chenghuan took Dongtianji's hand and walked in the direction of Zhijing Palace.
"Zhijing Palace, who are you going to give me as a gift tonight?" Dongtian Ji hoped that next time Mo Chenghuan could say hello in advance, maybe he didn't need to, anyway, he could guess it, not to mention whether he said it or not, at the moment when he was sent out, his mood was terrible.
"You'll know," Mo Chenghuan didn't want to discuss this matter, she just increased the strength of the hand in her hand that held Dongtianji.
Dongtianji shook Mo Chenghuan's hand back with the same force, and took Mo Chenghuan's hand and kissed it.
"I think the next time I go to see you again, you should stew me some supplements or something," Dong Tianji suddenly hated this kind of life, and he actually had a feeling that he was desperate to end this life quickly.
"I will," Mo Chenghuan also began to hate this kind of life, she was fed up with this kind of day when she treated her beloved as a transaction.
Dongtian could understand Mo Chenghuan's mood very well, the mood of the two of them must be exactly the same at this moment, just when he wanted to open his mouth to comfort Mo Chenghuan, a beautiful song came into their ears.
This song is like a heavenly sound, like a resentment, like smoke and fog invading their hearts, making them like a demon, and involuntarily follow the guidance of the song to find its source.
They were all taken aback, because Xue Shicai had not shown this talent in front of anyone before, and no one could have imagined that Xue Shicai would be able to sing such a heavenly sound.
"Who is in front of you?!" Dongtianji was frightened, but he did not forget his mission.
"Concubine Xue Shicai has seen the emperor!" Xue Shicai didn't hide anything anymore, and knelt directly in front of Dongtianji.
"How come I've never seen you?" Dongtian had to do enough to show his stuff in front of the enemy.
"Your Majesty, Xue Miaoren entered the palace with her concubines, when Lixue Yan was unwell, she failed to be a real talent in front of the emperor, she is still the niece of Prime Minister Xue Cheng," Dongtianji opened, then she was responsible for cooperating, so that she could confuse the real with the fake.
"Oh, is that really the case?" asked Dongtianji, looking directly at Xue Shicai.
Although Xue Shicai lowered her head, she could also hear that she was indeed "doing her best" to introduce herself to Dongtianji, and nodded busily: "That's right." β
"Fortunately, today, God let me see your talent, so that I will not bury your good voice anymore, raise my head, let me take a good look at you. Dongtianji ordered.
Xue Shicai has always been confident in her appearance, she firmly believes that as long as Dongtianji has seen her beauty, Mo Chenghuan can only wave goodbye to Dongtianji's favor, because in the future, she will be the only one who will win Dongtianji's favor.
Xue Shicai slowly raised her arrogant head, and the moment she saw Dongtianji with a shallow gaze, her serious panic did not fit the atmosphere.
"Why are you so flustered?" Dongtian Ji knew that it was because of his face that looked exactly the same as Xue Yuanshan, and he deliberately asked as if he didn't know.
"Concubines should be damned, concubines are just ...... Because the concubine's brother looks very similar to the emperor, when she saw which queen the queen was, Long Yan remembered the concubine's deceased brother for a while, "Xue Shicai's reaction was not unpleasant, just between the lightning and flint, she was able to quickly calm down, and think of the most perfect reason, and knelt down to admit her mistake."
"Brother?" Dong Tianji still pretended to be confused.
"Xue Miaoren's cousin Xue Yuanshan," Dongtianji is obviously digging a pit for Mo Chenghuan to jump, but if he doesn't jump, the two of them will hug each other and show their feet.
"Oh, it's Xue Aijiang! He is a fierce general who has made great contributions to Canglei, but it's a pity that God is jealous of talents," Dongtianji pretended to be sad and symbolically praised it, not to mention that Mo Chenghuan felt fake, and even Xue Shicai, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't hear how sincere he was, but it was precisely because of this that Dongtianji's mediocrity and incompetence could be even more shown.
"Come on, come on, get up and talk, kneel and talk aggrieved," Dong Tianji was also crisp enough, and directly helped Xue Shicai up and hugged him in his arms.
Mo Chenghuan raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart: "You were so unwilling just now, did you deliberately do it for her at this moment?"
Xue Shicai saw that Dongtianji didn't ink, and she also understood what Dongtianji meant, and followed the strength of Dongtianji to hug her, and softly leaned her whole body on Dongtianji.
Mo Chenghuan had a smile on her face, in fact, she scolded the dog man and woman in her heart, and now the only thing she wanted to do was to kick the two troublesome things into the lake with one kick, but she still resisted this impulse and took a few steps back to make way for Dongtianji to go back.
"Someone!" Dong Tianji shouted loudly.
Zhu Ming, who was waiting not far away, immediately rushed over when he heard Dongtianji's voice.
"Zhu Ming, you go and arrange it, I want to taste Xue Miaoren's wonderful singing voice again......" Dong Tianji looked at Xue Shicai with very ambiguous eyes, and Zhu Ming immediately understood what Dong Tianji meant.
Zhu Ming lowered his head and asked, "May I ask if it is in the Tilting Yan Hall or ......?"
Dongtianji suddenly lost interest, and replied leisurely: "Tilting Yan Palace." β
Zhu Ming nodded to understand, and turned around and instructed his subordinates to arrange, Dongtianji "happily" hugged Xue Shicai and walked out, Zhu Ming glanced back at Mo Chenghuan, he felt that he should say something, but the situation did not allow it, he could only turn around and leave.
Mo Chenghuan admitted that she was a little lonely at this moment, anyone who encountered this situation would be lonely, and now she should also need comfort.
"Master," Ling Xue quietly came to Mo Chenghuan's side.
Mo Chenghuan turned around and saw Ling Xue holding a silk coat in her hand.
"Did you hear the voice?" Mo Chenghuan told Ling Xue and Jin Su and Zhu Ming to wait outside the garden, Zhu Ming came over, and it was not surprising that Ling Xue and Jin Su would come over, but where did Jin Su go?
"Jin Su went to prepare a sedan chair, we are reluctant to let our dear master walk back lonely," Ling Xue became more and more clever when she followed Mo Chenghuan, and now the easiest person to see through Mo Chenghuan turned out to be Ling Xue who once wanted to put her to death.
Mo Chenghuan smiled helplessly: "Since they are all lonely, is there any difference between walking back and being carried back?"
"We cannot heal the weariness of our master's heart, but we can not let our master's body be tired. At this moment, Jin Su came back and happened to hear the conversation between Mo Chenghuan and Ling Xue, so he continued their topic.
Mo Cheng smiled and said nothing, Ling Xue and Jin Su looked at each other and smiled.
On the second day, it was rumored that the emperor summoned Xue Shicai, and I don't know what method Xue Shicai used, so that the emperor Longyan Dayue suddenly soared into the sky and became Chang Xuan into Mei Xinyuan.
When people were still racking their brains for the tricks used by Xue Shicai, a shocking thing suddenly came from near the Spring Wind Garden.
The reason why Dongtianji summoned Xue Shicai was because of Mo Chenghuan, who learned from the little eunuch on duty near the Chunfeng Garden that Dongtianji originally went to the Chunfeng Garden with Mo Chenghuan, but unexpectedly met Xue Shicai who was singing, so Dongtianji took Xue Shicai away and summoned the lucky reward for Chang Xuan.
As soon as the news spread, it was like pouring water into a hot oil pot, which made the already uncalm palace directly explode.
Mo Chenghuan has become the fragrant bun in everyone's eyes, and Mo Chenghuan has simply become a springboard for those who want to get close to the East Heavenly Pole, as sacred as a god in the eyes of everyone, because they know that Mo Chenghuan is undoubtedly the only way to the Wutong Branch.
This is not a rumor, but there is evidence for them. Not to mention Qiu Shengxi, who was favored by the saint for framing Mo Chenghuan at the beginning, just say this Qi language, if it weren't for being friendly with Mo Chenghuan, how could she get her scenery today, and Lu Wanjuan, who almost entered the Huanyi Bureau, was not to please Mo Chenghuan and was arranged into Chanxin Garden, not to mention the wonderful people, I am afraid that it is not impossible for the Huanyi Bureau to die of old age, and now Xue Shicai, the list of lucky summons has been shelved again and again, if it weren't for Mo Chenghuan's sudden thought of going to the Spring Breeze Garden for a walk, Xue Shicai may be as difficult as climbing to the sky if he wants to see the holy face, I don't know how long I have to stay in the dark place of Zhijing Palaceγ
All of the above is enough to make these people who have not seen hope for a long time flock to Mo Chenghuan.
The day after the news came out, from early in the morning, Mo Chenghuan had not yet gotten up, and the visitors lined up in the east of the city to the west of the city.
Many of them have never heard of Mo Chenghuan, but several of them have had a relationship, most of them are with Lilly, Mo Chenghuan is embarrassed not to see.
Two days later, Mo Chenghuan was too tired to do so, so he asked Ning Xiang: "Do you think I'm too kind-hearted, why should I see them?"
Ning Xiang, who was busy serving tea and pouring water, and her limbs were sore, deeply agreed: "That's it." β
So Mo Chenghuan decided to close the door and not see the guests, but she just couldn't figure out why her yard suddenly became so lively, so she asked again: "Is there any rumor circulating recently?"
Ning Xiang only cares about being busy before and after, and he doesn't know what to do.
Ling Xue smiled and told Mo Chenghuan the whole story.
Mo Chenghuan sneered after hearing this: "The person who takes the initiative to ask for help must be a person who has nothing to do, a person who has nothing to do is naturally of no use value, a person who has no use value, how can I waste the resources in my hands to save them?"
Jin Su listened, Mo Chenghuan's words were indeed too ruthless, but this is indeed a fact, how can there be so many real friends in this palace, but they are just people who use each other.
"Master, there's a guest here!" Yuliu, the new little girl in the courtyard, hurriedly ran in from outside.
"Didn't you say that you didn't see guests?" Ning Xiang became angry when she heard the word "guest", and whether it would scare Yuliu or not, she scolded Yuliu harshly.
"Let them go back, just say that the master is tired," although Jin Su is also too tired, he still knows the etiquette.
"Yes...... But...... He's not a beauty...... It's the Imperial Doctor......" Yuliu was scolded by Ning Xiang so much that she almost cried, and she was so aggrieved that she couldn't even speak clearly.
"Doctor, who is that?" Ning Xiang frowned, and although her face was unhappy, her tone finally eased.
"It's Lou Yuyu, please invite him in!" Mo Chenghuan's figure flashed in his mind, and he suddenly became energetic.
Lou Yuyu carried the medicine box on his back, strode up to Mo Chenghuan and said loudly: "Who is summoning this seat!"
"Less poor," Mo Chenghuan said angrily, turned his head to the people in the courtyard and instructed: "In the future, when the imperial doctor of the building visits, there is no need to pass it on, please come into the house directly." β
"Did you hear what the master said?" Ning Xiang, as the palace maid in charge, naturally has the obligation to confirm it.
"I hear you!" said everyone in unison.
"Very good," Mo Chenghuan nodded with satisfaction and invited Lou Yuyu into the house.
