Chapter 6: The Golden Bell
Mu Xinya looked at her hypocritical smile sarcastically, and an expressionless cold face appeared in her mindβto be precise, their father, Mu Chengtian.
Since she was born, she had never seen him smile, thinking that a big man like him would not laugh at all.
But she was wrong.
Mu Chengtian is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, licking calves affectionately, of course he doesn't know how to laugh, it's just that he never smiles at her.
In the dilapidated wing room where they lived, her mother always cried silently, at that time she thought that her mother was crying for Mu Chengtian, but now that she thinks about it, she is wrong again.
As the eldest princess of the Helian clan, her mother fell into such a miserable situation for the so-called love when she was young, and was trampled under the feet of the eldest lady, who would not cry or hate?
The mother is not crying scum like Mu Chengtian, but there must be other reasons!
The sour pain spread in her chest, Mu Xinya's eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and the pupils were flushed red.
Big lady, Mu Chengtian, they all deserve to die!
"Since the mother is worried about the prime minister, the villain is now having a chance to let the mother meet the adult. Suddenly, Zhugen's deep voice sounded coldly, breaking the silence.
Mu Luorou's Danfeng eyes faintly flashed a fine light, and she secretly said in her heart: It's finally time to get to the point!
Mu Xinya looked at Zhugen, raised her thin eyebrows, and her voice was a little tight, "Oh?
Zhugen bent down slightly, arched his fists with both hands, the black mole on his chin shook a few times, and said slowly: "There is no place for villains in the harem, and I also ask Concubine Jin to condescend to the prime minister's mansion and recuperate." At most, the bamboo root guarantees that the mother will be healed. β
What the?
Let her go to the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Le Ling and Mo Lan looked at each other, and when they thought of the prime minister's mansion like a golden wire cage, Le Ling was not shocked, her face turned pale on the spot, and the hairs on her body stood up.
She and Miss have lived there for more than ten years, and for them, it is not a place for people at all!
Although Mo Lan didn't know much about their embarrassing past, she was also full of worries. What she is worried about is that letting her mother go to the prime minister's mansion to recuperate, isn't it equivalent to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger?
Niangniang blocked Mu Luorou's way to the back position, and she must be regarded as a thorn in the side of Mu Fu, and everyone can't wait to pull it out. Moreover, Mu Chengtian is not a simple character, the eldest princess was deceived by him so bitterly......
Unexpectedly, just as they were secretly worried in their hearts, a voice soon sounded, interrupting their thoughts and making them happy.
"Although your idea is good, it's just that I am not related to the Xiangfu, so living in it so rashly, won't it disturb Prime Minister Mu Cheng's Qingxiu? Moreover, I have always been simple, and a big family like the Xiangfu is really not suitable for me to recuperate. β
Mu Xinya shook her head with pity, and refused this mention without any margin.
There are two meanings in her words: one is that Mufu does not welcome her to go, and the other is that even if Mufu wants to kneel and beg her to go, she does not want to go.
Horizontally and vertically, left and right sound like no promise.
The current Mu Xinya is not stupid, what Mo Lan Leling can think of, she can naturally think of. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is fraud in this, if she really goes to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is equivalent to being completely isolated, and it is easy for Mu Luorou to harm her.
Although if she encounters any danger in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mu Chengtian will definitely bear the responsibility, and the emperor will not let him go. But I'm afraid that if Mu Luorou really wants to break the net, she doesn't hesitate to catch her own father and Mu Fumanmen, then her life will be in danger......
You must know what a ruthless woman Mu Luorou is. thinks that back then, in order to help Yuan Xin seize the throne, she could even betray her imperial aunt and cousin, so betraying her parents was just a matter of gritting her teeth and being ruthless.
After thinking about it again, this risk still can't be taken.
Seeing that she decisively refused, Mu Luorou's eyes darkened, and she persuaded anxiously: "Sister is too worried, if my sister can come to the house, it is really an honor for my Mu family, how can there be any trouble." As for what my sister said, it is also something that can be solved with one sentence, and there is no need to bother my sister at all, my sister will arrange it properly. β
Mu Luorou said a long and bitter speech, and after she finished speaking, even she wondered if she was too enthusiastic, so she was suspected.
Gan Gan laughed twice, and then explained: "This is an errand given to my sister by the emperor, and my sister should go all out to solve problems for the emperor, and I hope my sister will understand." β
Mu Xinya raised the corners of her lips and looked at her pretentious appearance sarcastically. He didn't change his mind, and he still planned to open his mouth to refuse, leaving no room for negotiation, so that Mu Luorou's plan would fall through.
"I'm really embarrassed, I'm afraid my sister is going to live up to my sister's hospitality. But sister, just rest assured, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of the emperor, as for this miracle doctor, a hard trip, the reward will not be less!"
To say that it is good, it is called "a few words for her", but to say that it is ugly, Mu Luorou is a maid who is busy before and after just to ask for merit and reward with the master!
Sure enough, before she was halfway through her words, Mu Luorou's little face turned red and white for a while, and her smile froze on her face.
Mu Xinya saw it in her eyes and felt a little thirsty after saying so many words, and reached out to pick up the purple jade teacup, ready to drink saliva to moisten her throat.
It's just that before the teacup could touch her lips, her hand was stiff in the air.
"The villain has something to show the mother. β
The voice of the bamboo root sounded suddenly, and the big calloused hand reached into the wide sleeve of his coat, took out something, and shook it from side to side.
"Bell-Bell-Bell-Bell-Bell......"
It was a golden bell.
The bell made a crisp sound, and Le Ling and Mo Lan, who looked at it fixedly, were startled at first, and then they were puzzled, not understanding why he took out a bell.
Even Mu Luorou was puzzled - bells? Isn't this something children like to play with, what will bamboo roots do with it!
But when the three of them moved their eyes to Mu Xinya, the thoughts in their hearts changed dramatically in an instant.
I saw that Mu Xinya's face turned pale with "brushing", and the sweat oozing from her forehead was not fine sweat, but beads of sweat the size of beans, slipping down her sideburns drop by drop, wetting the fine fluffy hair, and sticking it to her face obediently.
Her eyes became dull, her shrunken pupils slowly dilated, and her original aura was swept away, replaced by large tracts of godlessness and emptiness.
Her fingers holding the teacup stiffened, her bent arms motionless, her eyes wide open, and she couldn't say a word.
"Bell-Bell-Bell-Bell-Bell......"
The demonic bell echoed in his ears, awakening the memories in the depths of his mind, and the color of blood and shadows overlapped.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, Niangniang......"
Mo Lan quickly sensed that something was wrong with Mu Xinya's expression, and shouted a few times in succession, trying to recall her mind, but the result was in vain!
Seeing this, a look of satisfaction appeared on Takegen's dark and thin face. In fact, the bell in his hand is no longer the original one, but a new one, and he is naturally very satisfied with this effect.
Hehe, the Jinpa he used for Mu Xinya's pulse diagnosis just now is mixed with good things, otherwise there will be no effect. Thinking that at the beginning, he handed the bell to the third child, Zhu Yeqing, and asked him to accuse Mu Xinya to threaten Fang Yunting, but he didn't expect the third child to never return and die in Mu Xinya's hands, and he was also blinded by Fang Yunting and became a waste.
At the thought of this, his smile immediately disappeared.
The murderer of the third brother was in front of him, and it was easy to take her life, but Takene knew that he couldn't do it right now. If he didn't have Mu Xinya's trump card, how could he fight with Fang Yunting?
So, it's better to go step by step as planned.
According to the villain's opinion, Niangniang still asked the emperor for an order early and moved to the Prime Minister's Mansion in time to recuperate. β
Takegen stopped shaking the bell's hand and said hoarsely. The words he said sounded like he was mentioning the construction of yì, but it felt very strange - it felt like he was under the order of the above!
Mu Luorou, who had been quietly watching the changes, rolled her eyes, echoed Zhugen's words, and asked: "This mention is good, my sister will definitely take care of my sister, I don't know what my sister thinks?"
Mu Xinya was still in a daze, and she didn't react for a long time, Le Ling and Mo Lan were all shocked and scared of her appearance, and they didn't know what to do.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, what's wrong with you?"
Mo Lan kept whispering in her ear, but she didn't get any response, and she secretly said something bad in her heart. What she didn't expect was that soon the bell of the bamboo root rang again!
"Hook-Bell-Bell-Bell-Bell......"
"Please order the emperor to move to the Prime Minister's Mansion, this plan is very good. The sound of the bell is mixed with the sound of bamboo roots' impatience.
Incredibly, Mu Xinya really opened her mouth, the expression on her face was as wooden as before, only her lips were closed one by one, and she said in a slow whisper:
"Please order the emperor...... Move to the Prime Minister's ...... It's a brilliant plan......"
She repeated Takegen's words word for word.
"!"
Mo Lan hurriedly covered her mouth, so that the exclamation did not come out. There is a mess in my heart, Niangniang must have been accused, this bell is absolutely weird!
How can this be?
A smug smile appeared on Mu Luorou's lips, and she glanced approvingly at the expressionless bamboo root. Tsk, I didn't expect this guy to have such a powerful ability, she owed slightly, she said happily: "In this case, my sister will go back to do something, the Prime Minister's Mansion welcomes my sister, and my sister retires first." β
"Let's go, let's go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion now!"
As he passed by Zhugen's side, Mu Luorou, who was full of smugness, paused for a moment and stretched out her arm to pestle him. Takegen smiled and immediately followed behind her, and the figures of the two quickly disappeared at the entrance of the hall.
"Mother, mother, wake up!"
As soon as the two of them left, Mo Lan immediately walked around to Mu Xinya, bent down and shook her shoulders anxiously, trying to wake her up.
