Chapter Fifty-Eight: Look Up and Don't Look Down
The sun had already set in the West Mountain, Mu Qinyi sent someone to send Song Ning out from the path, but after a while, this person hurriedly came over and said that Song Ning was stopped by the people of the fifth princess. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The quail's eyes tightened when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Let's go and see the little one." β
Mu Qinyi lowered his head, tasted the last sip of tea in the teacup, put down the teacup, and said indifferently: "No need, I'll go there myself." β
On a hidden path in the Begonia Garden, the entrance of the bluestone paved path is hidden behind a lush bamboo forest, if you don't deliberately open the bamboo leaves, you will never find it, it turns out that there is another world behind this bamboo forest, the weather is hot recently, most of Prince Su are staying in the manor on the outskirts of Beijing, Song Ning every time he has something to report, he is also from the back door through the path of the Begonia Garden to talk, in the past, only he and Prince Su around a few close people know this path, on this path met the fifth princess Mu Chenghuang, really made Song Ning a little surprised, but soon, he humbly bowed: "I've seen the five princesses. β
Compared with the lychee banquet in the afternoon, Mu Chenghuang also changed into a more refreshing and convenient home dress, and the goose-yellow long-arm sleeves made her look relaxed and lively, approachable, less of the princess's richness and extravagance, and more of the delicate and cute of ordinary women.
Mu Chenghuang crossed his arms and said with a smile: "This gentleman has good eyesight, I have never seen Mr. before, and Mr. can actually recognize this palace as the fifth princess at a glance." β
Song Ning also smiled: "I heard that today's prince has a big lychee banquet, and there are many noble daughters and young masters, but at this time, most of them have to rush back to the city, but several princesses stay in the manor, the eldest princess, the third princess and the fourth princess have prepared a carriage to find joy and Xiaozhu, and the sixth princess is born exquisitely and small, but it is not as well-proportioned and ruddy as the fifth princess." β
Mu Chenghuang smiled: "You seem to know a lot about the things in the palace? β
"I don't know, it's just that when I entered the garden, I saw several other princesses out of the manor, and I just asked a few more questions. Song Ning was very calm.
Mu Chenghuang's eyes fell on the medical box on Song Ning's back, the strap made of cowhide was strong and heavy, and said with a smile: "Mr. is a doctor?"
Song Ning just nodded, which could be regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
"It just so happens that Bengong's body has been a little unwell recently, and the imperial doctor in the palace has prescribed several pairs of medicines but it has not been good, but I want to ask Mr. As soon as Mu Chenghuang's words fell, he heard a few powerful dog barks from the other side of the bamboo forest, a sound of bamboo leaves moving, and a black shadow suddenly rushed to Song Ning and Mu Chenghuang, Song Ning saw the big dog for the first time, and subconsciously retreated again and again, holding a thick bamboo nearby, but Mu Chenghuang's eyes lit up and shouted: "Frog!"
The frog heard a familiar voice calling his name, poofed and sat down on the ground, stared at Mu Chenghuang with wide eyes, spit out his big tongue and sighed, Mu Chenghuang only felt that the frog was becoming more cute and sensible, took a step closer, also squatted down, stretched out his hand, palms up, and smiled: "Will you shake hands?"
As soon as he heard the word handshake, the frog seemed to have heard some command, and with a snap, he put his paws in Mu Chenghuang's palm, and spit out his big tongue, and suddenly, a thick male voice came from outside the bamboo forest, and the frog was called back, Mu Chenghuang opened the bamboo leaves, and saw that Mu Qinyi was outside, sitting in a wheelchair, and his warm big hand was stroking back and forth on the frog's headγ
"Come out. Mu Qinyi said lightly.
Mu Chenghuang glanced back at Song Ning, he just found Song Ning, Mu Qinyi came, obviously for this, since this is the case, it is better to simply spread out and ask Mu Qinyi, so as not to suspect left and right and not guess the correct answer.
Mu Chenghuang and Song Ning walked out of the path together, Mu Qinyi waved his hand, meaning to let Song Ning go back first, Mu Chenghuang watched this Mr. Zhou leave with burning eyes, and looked at Mu Qinyi intently, Mu Qinyi shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and said, "Don't worry, I won't run." After that, he pointed to his leg and said, "Isn't it that you can't run if you want to?"
Mu Chenghuang spit out a sentence as if angry: "Who knows if it's real or fake." β
This sentence is so familiar, just because Lin Guanlan also said exactly the same sentence, Mu Qinyi shook his head and sighed: "How come you and Guanlan have the same temper, and there is no basic trust between people?"
"Trust?" Mu Chenghuang's tone raised slightly, "Uncle Huang talks to me about trust?"
"Isn't it strange? This king can't say these two words or what?" This tone was a little tense, and the quail saw a look from Mu Qin Yi's envoy, and immediately retreated and guarded the door, Baojuan and Wenzhi were also guarding at the end of this path, without Mu Chenghuang's intention, they would not come in rashly.
Mu Qinyi only said towards a pavilion with eaves in front of this begonia garden: "Go there and talk." β
Mu Chenghuang's heart was full of questions, since Mu Qin Yiken was willing to talk to her, she must seize this opportunity, she slowly smoothed out the questions she wanted in her heart, but found that she didn't know where to ask for a while, and her mind seemed to be a mess.
The small pavilion is surrounded by blooming begonia flowers, large clusters of Xifu begonias and sticky stem begonias, the northeast corner is a group of weeping silk begonias, and the pink Lige begonia flowers are resting on the small stone table, which are in full bloom.
In order to facilitate Mu Qinyi's travel, a gentle slope has already been built next to this pavilion, Mu Qinyi can easily go up with a wheelchair by himself, and when he enters the pavilion, Mu Chenghuang has no intention of sitting down, just standing, looking straight at Mu Qinyi, there are pastries and fruits on the table that Mu Qinyi has not finished eating, Mu Qinyi has no intention of looking at it again, and he also looks at Mu Chenghuang directly, the two of them are in a stalemate for a while, Mu Qinyi suddenly said quietly: "Is this king so good-looking?"
"Before, the emperor's uncle borrowed books from the Lin family to Cheng Huang, although Cheng Huang had thanked him in person, but Cheng Huang knew that his father must have secretly checked whether the time of borrowing the book was before or after the examination, Cheng Huang knew that it was the emperor's uncle who covered up for Cheng Huang, but he still did not thank him for this kindness. Mu Chenghuang sat down as he spoke, although he said thank you, but there was a tentative and cautious look on his face.
Mu Qinyi didn't raise his head, but said, "When did you become so perfunctory in thanking you?" β
Mu Chenghuang choked up and said, "I'm the same with others." β
"Then when did this king become someone else?" After Mu Qinyi finished speaking, his eyes were scorching, and there seemed to be a sea of stars hidden in his deep and unpenetrating eyes, which were so fascinating, and they were obviously overly intimate, and when they came out of Mu Qinyi's mouth, they carried a demagogic charm, and even the slightly trembling eyelashes were doing everything they could to impress the woman opposite, the person he wanted to protect from his previous life to this life.
He knew her life experience, so he was not afraid of the apparent uncle-nephew relationship between the two in his heart, and it was precisely because he knew her life history that he wanted to protect her more and more, so he asked Song Ning to risk sending Mama Lu, who the Yuan family had been looking for, out of the capital and to Lingnan at this cusp.
The thought that he had saved her from the greatest calamity in his previous life made him happy in his heart, maybe the road in the future would be just as difficult, but at least, it would allow her smile as pure as a sunflower to stay for a little longer.
And for these, he didn't need her to understand.
When did she treat him as someone else? Mu Chenghuang was slightly stunned, but her face was unconsciously embarrassed, she tried her best to suppress the crimson color and slight heat on her face, and said, "That's right, we ...... Ahem, it's a family. She tried hard to play the round, this is what she remembered, cleared her throat and asked: "I heard that Uncle Huang found a new famous doctor to treat his leg disease a while ago, but that Doctor Zhou?"
"No," Mu Qin Yi said, "he's just here to play chess with me." β
Mu Chenghuang lowered his gaze to the bunch of agate grapes on the table, so that he could try not to look at Mu Qinyi's eyes: "I don't know how Uncle Huang met this Doctor Zhou? I heard that this Doctor Zhou only entered Beijing recently. β
"I met him by playing chess. β
Mu Chenghuang raised his head, and Mu Qinyi added: "In the Lin family." β
As soon as this matter came to the Lin family, it was difficult to handle, Mu Chenghuang just smiled and said: "I look at this Doctor Zhou, but I look like a person." β
After Mu Chenghuang finished speaking, he looked at Mu Qinyi's face, but he didn't move, Mu Chenghuang had no choice but to talk to himself: "The top of the Dashun talent list in the early years is the one with a portrait, Cheng Huang remembers that Song Ning, the eldest son of the Song family at the top of the list, was born a talent, but it is somewhat similar to Dr. Zhou. β
"Aren't they all one nose and two eyes? These useless lists are just nonsense made up by people who have time to read more. β
"Uncle Huang has been at the top of the Dashun beautiful male list for ten consecutive years. Mu Chenghuang snorted lightly.
Mu Qinyi nodded and said, "This list is more reliable. β
It seems that Mu Qinyi really can't ask anything, Mu Chenghuang let out a sigh of relief, she was originally full of unwillingness, but every time she tried it, it was like a heavy punch on the soft cotton.
Seeing that Mu Chenghuang stopped talking, Mu Qinyi took the initiative to ask: "Chengqing and the others went to find joy and Xiaozhu, why didn't you go?"
Mu Chenghuang said: "At first, I wanted to come, but then I heard that today's singing was Qiuhua's resentment, so I just stopped because it was ......." β
Mu Qinyi grabbed Bai and echoed, "It's okay not to go, this king has also heard this Qiuhua grievance before, the writing is tender, and the lyrics are self-pitying, it is for the inferior opera, by the way, why did you just say it?"
Mu Chenghuang choked up, and said in a stiff tone: "Because this Qiuhua resentment is a drama written by me when I was twelve years old and corresponded with Shen Ke. β
