Chapter Twenty-Three: Becoming an Assassin
"Bachelor girl, bachelor girl, wake up, wake up. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
A musty and rotten smell reached her mouth and nose, and Li Mu'er wanted to open her eyes hard, but she couldn't open them. This feeling reminded her of the "ghost press bed" when she was a child, and she heard her mother calling at the bedside all the time, but no matter how she struggled, she couldn't wake up.
"Mother, wake up Mu'er, mother......"
"Bachelor woman, the wound on your shoulder needs to be treated quickly. In the next is Ma Tongzhi's friend, who once had a relationship with you, and the situation is special at the moment, so I have to offend. ”
Li Mu'er heard what the other party said, but she didn't have the strength to react.
Immediately, the shoulders were soaked in the slightest cold wind, and Li Mu'er was shocked, and then opened her eyes suddenly!
A whirling vertigo.
She had a long time getting used to it, and then she realized that it was nothing more than a candle flame, and the candlelight was so weak that it could only illuminate three inches in front of her: she was leaning against the wall, and in front of her was a man, dressed in a brocade robe, half-crouching on the ground, cutting the clothes on her left shoulder with scissors.
His face was buried in the shadows, and Li Mu'er couldn't see it really.
"I'll come by myself, hiss......" Li Mu'er raised her right hand to grab the scissors in his hand, but found that her right shoulder was driven in severe pain, and she was unable to fall.
"Beware!" The man spoke at the same time.
Li Mu'er saw him clearly at this time, and he had indeed seen it, and he greeted her when he sent Ma Cong out of the palace that day.
"Are you, Mu Bin?" Li Muer vaguely remembered.
Mu Bin smiled, "The female bachelor has such a good memory, no wonder she is famous." ”
Fame? Hearing these words now, Li Mu'er only feels sarcastic.
He put the scissors on the ground and picked up a strip of damp cloth to wipe her wound.
Li Mu'er frowned in pain, so she had to divert her attention and ask, "Where am I?" ”
Mu Bin's movements were skillful, he glanced at her with concern, and replied, "This is the Fusi Prison in Jinyi Weibei Town." ”
"Heh, yes," Li Mu'er looked around, the cell was not big, and there were walls on all sides, which covered her embarrassment at the moment, she sneered, "Naturally, it's a prison." ”
Mu Bin had finished cleaning the wound, looked at Li Mu'er embarrassedly and said, "Bachelor girl, I will now apply medicine and bandage for you, it is inevitable that you will ...... I hope you will forgive me for any offense. ”
"It's okay," Li Mu'er wanted to smile at him, but her lips were chapped and aching as soon as she grinned, "Thank you for being willing to help me." ”
Mu Bin shook his head, at this moment she couldn't move her hands, and it was inconvenient for her to take off her coat, so she could only pick up scissors again, cut out a big hole in the clothes on her shoulders, quickly apply medicine, and wrap the wound with gauze.
Li Mu'er felt Mu Bin's hand slide over her shoulder, and then pulled out the gauze from under her armpit, bandaging it layer by layer, touching layer by layer. Although embarrassed, she understood the current situation, and it was difficult for him to be willing to help her in Ma Cong's face, so Li Mu'er had to pretend to be calm.
It was Mu Bin, Li Mu'er saw that he was trying not to turn his head, and his hands were still trembling slightly. I'm afraid of hurting her, and every move is quite difficult. It seems that Brother Cong's brother is an honest child, and his character is really not bad.
Li Mu'er couldn't help but feel funny.
Hearing her chuckle, Mu Bin's face turned even redder.
Hurriedly wrapped, light sweat broke out on his forehead, "Ahem, bachelor girl, it's okay." Your wounds are deep and will take time to heal, so remember not to move. No, it's better not to move at all. ”
Li Mu'er wanted to laugh even more, "Brother Mu, I'm not here to recuperate, right?" ”
Mu Bin was packing up his things, and was stunned when he heard this, so he simply sat down and asked curiously, "Female bachelor, what happened?" How good, suddenly ......"
"Do you suddenly remember to assassinate the emperor?" Li Muer interface.
Mu Bin was surprised that she would be so direct, nodded and said, "That's what the Tiqi who captured you said so, you should remember that you were arrested in the Qianqing Palace, right?" The security of the Ouchi Forbidden Palace is in charge of the Jinyi Guard, so you will be sent here in no time. ”
Li Mu'er nodded, "Fortunately, it's here." ”
Mu Bin was proud, "You should say, fortunately, I am on duty tonight, otherwise the subordinates outside are waiting to punish you." ”
"Tonight?" Li Mu'er was puzzled, "What time is this?" ”
"It's supposed to be the end of the day. At the end of the shift, I went to Ma Cheng and told him that something had happened to you. ”
When Li Mu'er heard Mu Bin's answer, she didn't answer anymore, her eyes turned to the prison door, and she thought in her heart, at the end of the day, he was going to go to the court soon.
………………
Kunning Palace.
The queen is arranging the dragon robe for Zhu Youji. One is soft and coquettish, and the other is magnificent, a sweet picture of raising eyebrows.
No wonder there are often clouds inside and outside the palace, although the emperor and queen are real dragons and phoenixes, they are like ordinary couples, eating and living together, and they are really in love.
Zhu Youzhi was a little absent-minded today.
Out of Kunning Palace, he immediately called Xiao Jing and asked, "Did the female bachelor go back to the palace last night?" ”
"The emperor is relieved, he is back." Xiao Jing said with a smile, "The emperor has issued an edict in the four gates, and no matter whether the female bachelor returns or not, she must report to the old slave." The old slave remembered that if he hadn't returned, he would have reported it to the emperor a long time ago. ”
Zhu Youji's heart fell to the ground and got on the sedan chair.
Afraid that the emperor would be thirsty, there was always a cup of fresh hot tea on the sedan chair of the upper and lower courts. When he arrived at Fengtianmen, Zhu Youzhu picked it up casually and took a sip.
Outside the gate of Fengtian, sit down, sound the whip, and the ministers bow, and there are things to do in turn.
Suddenly, Liu Ji came out of the queue and said loudly: "The minister has something to play!" Last night......"
Zhu Youji's heart rose to his throat.
Really!
But at this moment, he didn't have time to think, so he could only block it first, "I already know what Liu Aiqing wants to play, and my heart hurts, so I ask Liu Aiqing to follow me to the Qianqing Palace, and then discuss it carefully, how to deal with it." ”
Liu Ji was pleasantly surprised, since the emperor already knew, it must be ...... It seems that the emperor has also figured it out, so he respectfully should be.
Although everyone wondered for a while what the monarch and ministers were selling, they had no time to ask, just play their own business, or wait to retreat from the court.
Zhu Youzhu instinctively coped with the subsequent court affairs, but his heart was already in a mess.
Fortunately, someone secretly reminded him!
Who is it?
Pressed a note under that cup of tea?
It reads: The female bachelor was in trouble last night, and she reported it early.
Fortunately, Liu Ji had attacked Li Mu'er earlier, so it was not difficult for him to guess.
finally waited for the end of the early dynasty, and as soon as the whip sounded, Zhu Youzhi immediately called Xiao Jing and whispered: "Go find Yingzhong, she has an accident." ”
Xiao Jing didn't even have time to say yes, so he hurriedly ran to Yongsu Hall to check. God knows, how much does the emperor value this female bachelor, why has she been so good lately, and suddenly said that something happened to her?
When I went to Yongsu Palace, I saw that it was terrible, the people were not there, and even the white fungus was gone.
Could it be that he has already gone to the Qianqing Palace on an errand?
Xiao Jing hurriedly ran to the Qianqing Palace again, and saw from a distance that the emperor's sedan chair had already come this way, followed by Liu Ji.
Xiao Jing hurriedly entered the hall to look for it. However, I didn't see the female bachelor, or even Zheng Jinlian!
Last night, it was clear that someone told me that the female bachelor was sent back by a carriage, how could there be a fake?
Seeing that the emperor had gotten off the sedan chair, Xiao Jing's eyes suddenly lit up and he went to the East Warm Pavilion.
Zhu Youzhu stepped into the hall, and just saw Xiao Jing walking out of the warm pavilion, this master of ceremonies who has always been old and respectful, but at this moment he was frowning and looking confused.
Zhu Youzhu sat down nervously.
Xiao Jing had also stepped to his side at this time, shook his head while serving tea and reminded softly, "The sword is not there either." ”
Zhu Youzhi was suspicious and uneasy, but he could only pretend to be calm and said to Liu Ji: "Liu Aiqing has something to say, please speak." ”
"Since the emperor already knows about last night's incident, no matter who she is or what her intentions are, the emperor will punish the assassin severely!"
Assassin?!
