At the time of the third watch, it rained drippingly, and the rain was sparse and chaotic, and the roof could not be wet, but it was a little understanding of the autumn dryness of the days.

Mu Qing walked aimlessly in the house, the small courtyard of the Du Gou Duhe brothers was still lit, and when they encountered a mutation, the dream of glory and wealth was suddenly smashed, but I was afraid that they would not be happy in their hearts, although Du Ruhui was their father now, his life and death, honor and disgrace, they probably didn't care very much.

The lights and candles in Shiro's house have been extinguished, and after all, he is a child, and when the sky falls, his parents are still supporting him, and he can still sleep soundly. Thinking about it like this, she can't blame Du Gu Duhe too much, although she gave them home, but after all, she was helpless in her heart, let alone she personally sent away their biological mother.

She didn't dare to raise her eyes in the study of the main courtyard, and as soon as the words of her swear to death came out, she turned her head and ran out of the study, ignoring the crisp sound of cups hitting the ground behind her, and the deep sigh with impatience and anger.

She has lived in this house for nearly three years, and she often feels that the house is too big, and she thinks that there are too many trivialities, and she can't open half of the house to go out, but now she feels that this house is not big enough, and she has nowhere to go after walking around.

"Qi Niang?"

In a trance, a call came from somewhere, Mu Qing suddenly raised his head, followed the sound and looked at it, only then did he realize that he had unconsciously walked to the second gate. The Yulin Lang were guarding outside the mansion, and a west ear room was vacated in the front yard from the gate to the second entrance, which was temporarily used as a rest place for the Yulin commander until the end of the errand.

"Qi Niang is going out?" He Suizhao sat alone on the stone steps under the eaves of the outer eaves of the ear room, squinting his eyes and looking out into the drizzle. Raised his hand and tried the size of the rain outside the verandah.

Mu Qing stopped and bowed on his knees, "Just take two steps at will, I don't want to disturb General He Sui, it's Qi Niang who is reckless, so I'm going to leave, don't disturb the general's rest." Then he turned around and wanted to leave.

He Suizhao hurriedly stood up, "It's okay, I can't invite each other on weekdays, but I met by chance." I dare to ask my wife to give her face......" he said, pointing to the vacant stone steps beside him.

Mu Qing turned around. First, she really has nowhere to go at this moment, and secondly, she has no one to discuss the matter of the prince's ambush. So she walked slowly towards him.

He Suizhao saw that she was really willing to step on the stone steps. I was stunned. reacted suddenly, hurriedly brushed off the single robe draped over his shoulders, and folded it slightly. Paved on the stone steps beside you. "The night is as cold as water, and I have been cooled carefully."

"There's General Law." Mu Qing bowed lightly, and was not as polite as him, and sat down on the single robe with half of his body open.

Although there was a stone lamp illuminated by a stone lamp in the front yard of "Qi Niang ......", Mu Qing deliberately did not look at the look on his face, and only heard him whisper in a slightly helpless tone: "Everyone in the world is congratulatory and unruly, dare to ask Qi Niang, you and I have known each other for ten years, although we love you deeply, have you ever had a bad heart towards you?" You and Brother Du have a deep relationship, how can I not understand? Why should Qi Niang always treat her with cold frost? ”

Mu Qing was silent for a long time, secretly thinking that he was really not as generous as him, he loved it bluntly, and praised it if he wanted to praise it, so warm and straightforward, but he never concealed his covetousness, and he never deliberately did anything selfish, and his usual deliberate indifference was obviously a little redundant.

After waiting for her for a while, she still didn't make a sound, He Sui knew that she was inevitably restless because of the difficult situation in front of her, and he didn't say much at the moment, but only closed his mouth, and quietly sat with her to watch the rain fall under the flickering fire of the stone lamp, and Cen Lonely slowly circulated under the eaves corridor.

After a long time, a trembling sigh spat out of her throat, like a string, pulling in the flesh and blood of He Suizhao's heart, making him feel a dull pain. "Do you know...... she buried the pain in her elbow, "he's going to leave me alone and go to danger." ”

Going to risk? Where is this going to danger, it is clearly going to difficulty. Who doesn't know that the number of dead soldiers in Bishamen is small, but they are all as ruthless as poisonous bees, and they are the Xuanjia army of King Qin, and they may not be able to compete with it, not to mention the dead soldiers under his command, who are brave and loyal, but they are far less vicious and vicious.

"Brother Du may have his own plan...... he himself felt pale, so he only said half of it, shook his head and couldn't say any more, and turned his head to see the firelight reflect a tear on her cheek that was as red as blood.

"Qi Niang, don't be cranky, Brother Du is a natural person, and he has been reborn in danger several times, it may not be as bad as you expected." He Suizhao opened his eyes and moved his gaze to other places, and he couldn't help but feel a little weak.

Mu Qing snorted lightly, "In vain, you have always had few scruples, I only know when you never hide and prevaricate, when did you learn to climb vines like this?" ”

"I can't complain about Brother Du's emotion, but I hope that you are occasionally stupid, and you are like watching everything clearly."

Mu Qing's heart froze, it turned out that they had already discussed it, and there was no possibility of reversing this matter?

He Sui Zhao smiled before he surfaced, and said: "Brother Du said that you will not obey, and repeatedly entrusted me with this, if you really want to follow him out of the city, I will knock you down and settle it properly." I shouldn't have made you known, but, only...... I have another way to make it safe for both of you to get out of the city, but Brother Du insists on refusing to ......"

"What's the solution?" Mu Qing's heart rose to his throat, and he involuntarily grabbed He Suizhao's sleeve with one hand, waiting with bated breath for him to continue.

He Suizhao stared at the sparkle in her eyes, pouring out endless hope, these eyes and this face, no matter how many years have passed, are irresistible to him, if he never sees it again, I am afraid that all the colors in this world will disappear in an instant. He smiled softly in his heart, gritted his teeth, and told her about his plan.

……

"How? The preparations on the side are all ready, but Brother Du wants you to make a force. At the end, He Suizhao rubbed his palms, and asked imperatively.

Mu Qing's face sank as early as halfway through what he said, and she complained that Du Ruhui did not allow it, this matter really could not be answered, she hurriedly shook her head again and again: "This can't be done, it can't be done." As she spoke, she stood up from the stone steps, and said in a trembling voice while walking down the stone steps in a disorderly manner, "If you want to be like this." How do you teach Ke to deal with himself in the future? Teach me ...... Teach me ...... How is it...... No, Keming should not, and I will not answer. ”

"Qi Niang!" He Suizhao raised his voice and chased after him quickly, not caring about whether he was polite or not, he grabbed her upper arm tightly, "You calm down, don't be rash!" Think about it, according to my method, but the best chance of winning? Again. You don't work for yourself, you don't plan for Brother Du. You should always take care of Shiro, if there is really a good one, you really can't bear to let him be independent of the world? ”

Mu Qing glared at him with his eyebrows and mentioned Shiro. She suddenly remembered when she passed by the house where Shiro and his nurse lived. The room slept peacefully, darkly. I couldn't help but move slightly in my heart, and all kinds of thoughts poured out for a while, and I couldn't agree with each other. Just closed his eyes and shook his head.

He Suizhao let go of the hand that was tightly wrapped around her arm and said in a wailing voice: "Qi Niang, I beg you...... Think about it, Brother Du can't do it, but I may not be able to. ”

Mu Qing's arms suddenly lost their restraints, she shook off his hand tightly, and trotted towards the inner courtyard quickly, not leaving a word.

……

The cool breeze of the autumn morning blew straight into the house through the window lattice, Mu Qing suddenly sat up from the bed, lifted the thin jacket on his body, and sat on the couch in a daze for half a moment, trying to recall last night's dream.

The brightly lit house, He Suizhao, who came to announce the decree, and the mighty Yulin Army, were deprived of their official positions, and Du Ruhui, who was expelled from Chang'an, was pale, and what was even more frightening was that on the way out of the city, the dead soldiers of Bishamen under the command of the prince had sharpened their long knives...... She trembled her fingers and tucked the hair that hung down in front of her eyes behind her ears, and her heart was still throbbing, how could she have such an unlucky dream.

At the moment when she bowed her head, she suddenly saw the shirt and skirt on her body, and she jumped up from the bed and stood on the ground, and then picked up the silk that was half-hung in the crook of her arm to take a look, and then she fell back to the bed in a dejected manner.

Where is this dream, everything really happened last night, even the dress on his body was still not changed last night. She covered her heartbeat with one hand, turned around and looked around, and slowly remembered that after talking to He Suizhao last night, she returned to the house in the inner courtyard in despair. She lay alone on the bed in her kimono, her mind constantly echoing the words of He Suizhao, and she saw a smear of gray outside the window lattice, and before she knew it, she fell asleep.

"Qi Niang, are you awake?" Ah Liu came in from outside, placed the copper basin in his hand on the basin shelf, and lifted the soft curtain that was swaying in the wind, revealing a haggard and bleak face. "When it was dawn, Ah Lang called me to guard, and he went into the house to take a look, only saying that you were still asleep, and he didn't teach me to wake you up, and went to the study again."

Mu Qing sat in a daze, as if she hadn't heard what Ah Liu said, only to feel that her heart was blocked by something, and she couldn't spit it out and couldn't swallow, and her heart tightened more and more.

Seeing that her eyes were gloomy and her face was like ashes, Ah Liu panicked in her heart, walked quickly to her side, stretched out her hand and shook her twice, "Qi Niang, Qi Niang." Don't you want to bluff me, if you have another good guy at this juncture, it's really a terrible thing. ”

Mu Qing raised his head slowly, looked up at her blankly, and muttered, "Ah Liu, what should I do?" You say, what should I do...... " After speaking, she pulled Aliu's sleeve like a child and cried bitterly, while squeezing out a few unfinished words intermittently from her throat.

Ah Liu was startled by her at first, and after a while, she came back to her soul, stroked her messy hair and comforted her softly, and vaguely heard her say: "...... I'm afraid he'll blame me for the rest of his life......" After a while, she seemed to have cried all her strength, and she couldn't make any sound, only tears kept flowing down her cheeks. At the end, she muttered to herself, "That's it, as long as he can be safe and smooth in the second half of his life, whether he is resentful or hateful, I will bear it." ”

Ah Liu was inexplicably surprised, but saw her struggling to get up from the bed, pick up the corner of the curtain, wipe her tears, and when she spoke again, there was no crying in her voice, "Ah Liu, I will freshen up, you don't need to take care of it here." You have two things in mind, the first one, go out to find a stable little guy, ask Doctor Zhao to come over the house, if anyone stops, just say that I am in a hurry, my body can't stand it, please ask him to come quickly, remember to be important. Again, you and Du Qi gathered all the servants and maids in the house, and if there were those who were willing to go out, they would return the deed, give some money and silver, and let them go. Those who do not want to leave will be resettled. Her tone was extremely calm, and the cry just now seemed to never exist.

Although Ah Liu didn't know what was going on, he also knew that it was important. Therefore, I didn't dare to delay, so I went out to cook by myself. Mu Qing exhaled deeply and clenched his fists vigorously, there were some things that he knew he couldn't do, but if it was for Du Ruhui, there was nothing he couldn't do. The cold and selfish self-blame, the uneasiness of conscience are all borne by her, even if he is resentful because of this, and never sees her again, she doesn't care at the moment. I just want him to live well.

this day. Mu Qing turned pale, cleaned up his family, collected some floating money on his face, and was busy until twilight. There are not many servants and maidservants in the house. There are only about 20 people in total. Except for Duziada, who follow him all the year round. The rest is just a homeless cook, a maid who was resold to Chang'an as a cheap, and there is nowhere to go.

Aliu counted the servants and maids who were about to leave the house. But he didn't give them money immediately, just ordered them to wait in a side courtyard, and went to the back kitchen to guard a pot of medicine that was frying, or Zhao Cang came to see the house opened by Mu Qinghou at noon, and did not go outside to grab the medicine, and the herbs were personally delivered to her by Zhao Cang in the afternoon.

After a while, Ah Liu poured down the medicinal juice and carefully brought it out of the back kitchen, it was darker again, she looked up a few times, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and in an hour or more, she would close the door, hoping to be able to send those servants and maids out of the workshop in time.

When it was dark, there were two knocks on the door of the main house, but there was no answer in the house, and the knocker outside hesitated for a moment, knocked twice, and without waiting for a response from the house, he pushed the door and entered.

Mu Qingyuan sat on the bed and was stunned, at first glance he heard the sound of someone entering the house, as if he had just woken up from a dream, and looked up, through the smoky gray soft curtains, a familiar figure swayed dimly, and there was a porcelain bowl in his hand.

"If you don't feel good, why don't you send someone to tell you? I heard Ah Liu say that if you haven't eaten all day, you are not hungry, so you should have some cushions. The warm and mellow voice was exactly the voice she was used to hearing, but compared to the plain, it seemed to be a little less energetic.

Hearing this voice, Mu Qing's heart and eyes were hot at the same time, and he almost didn't shed tears, and suddenly felt that no matter how much he did, no matter how many mistakes he made, it was worth it just to listen to these low and gentle words again.

She lifted the curtain and walked out slowly, as if there had never been a dispute last night, as if he had entered the house from outside countless times, she lifted the curtain and stepped forward in response to his gentle call, the smile on her lips was still shallow.

Du Ruhui placed the porcelain bowl in his hand on the high table in the outer room, and took out a pair of clean chopsticks from his arms, "What can be poured out of the kitchen now is this bowl of soup cakes, but fortunately, the soup is still hot, so eat it quickly." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was another noise on the door, and Ah Liu's voice sounded outside, "Qi Niang, but you are asleep?" ”

Mu Qing turned around and opened the door of the house, and a strong medicinal gas poured into the room along with the cool evening breeze. "Give it to me." She took the wooden lacquer tray in Ah Liu's hand, "Those chores that sweep the tail can't leave you yet, hurry up." ”

A bowl of inky black soup in the middle of the tray swayed in the candlelight, Mu Qing sighed, put the tray and the bowl of soup cakes on the high desk together, and looked at the two bowls with some worry.

"Has Doctor Zhao come to see it?" Du Ruhan moved his brows and pointed to the bowl of soup on the case, "What did he say?" Is it a big deal? ”

Mu Qing shook his head, "Xu is affected by the wind, and if you go through it at first glance, you can take a few doses of medicine." As he spoke, he reached for the medicine bowl.

His fingers were still a little short of the medicine bowl, and he suddenly inserted a big hand horizontally, and took the medicine bowl without hesitation, "Taking medicine on an empty stomach hurt the spleen and stomach carefully, this medicine is still hot, and it can't enter the mouth left and right, so it's better to eat something first." ”

Mu Qing nodded obediently, picked up the chopsticks, and buried herself in eating the soup cake, but the soup cake was in her mouth, and she couldn't taste it at all, so she just swallowed it with difficulty one bite at a time.

Du Ruhui tested the temperature of the medicine bowl with his hand, and sure enough, it was still hot, he carefully picked up the medicine bowl, and blew the decoction on the edge of the bowl, and the hot mist quickly fascinated his eyes, slightly red. He couldn't help but sigh to himself, a few years ago, she was poor, and for two years she almost had a lot of medicine, in the end, she still suffered from him because of those sufferings, every time she tasted medicine for her, she always wanted to share the pain with her, maybe she didn't have to do it in the future, this was about the last time she tasted medicine.

He closed his eyes vigorously, suppressed the soreness under his eyes, picked up the medicine bowl and raised his head to take a big sip before handing the bowl to her.

Mu Qing put down the chopsticks in his hand and took the medicine bowl, but instead of taking the medicine, he looked at Du Ruhui straightly, his expression became more and more nervous, his wrist trembled slightly uncontrollably, and he simply put the medicine bowl aside, folded his hands, and sat upright.
