Ask for collections, ask for subscriptions, all kinds of ~~――
Approaching evening, Mu Qing took Zhu Yu for a leisurely stroll in the imperial garden. Liang Yinhao has been extremely busy recently because of the floods in the south, so he rarely comes to Chenzhi Palace, which makes Mu Qing have more energy to plan for the future.
Seeing Mu Qingwu pondering and looking preoccupied, Zhu Yu interjected: "I heard that the emperor has decreed that King Rui is responsible for rebuilding the embankment, so you can rest assured." ”
Mu Qing didn't care, and said with a smile: "Where is this, it's still far from rest assured!" ”
Zhu Yu continued: "At least until now, everything has been carried out according to Niangniang's expectations and plans, and with each successful step, Niangniang's heart should be wider. ”
Mu Qing knew that Zhu Yu was persuading herself not to be too nervous, to know how to take care of her emotions and body, how could Mu Qing not know her kindness, but it was indeed not an easy task to let go and rest assured, after all, she had been planning and waiting for so long, and there must be no difference.
However, Mu Qing didn't say anything more, and stood silently under the sunset sun, as if his whole body was exuding a golden light, which made people look obsessed.
Suddenly, there was a sound of sighing and trembling in the grass beside him. Dogwood reacted the fastest, and Dogwood thought that someone was hiding aside and eavesdropping on the conversation between the two of them, and immediately scolded: "Who's there?!" ”
Dogwood walked briskly, vigorously pulling a petite body out of the haystack. Mu Qing fixed his eyes and saw that it was Shen Hao's son, the eldest prince Liang Xi.
After Zhu Yu saw that it was Liang Xi, she couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately let go of her hand, and asked softly, "Your Highness, why are you?" What are you hiding there for? ”
"I'm not playing peek-a-boo!" Liang Xi explained unconvinced, "I'm looking for something!" Very important! ”
Zhu Yu looked at his cute appearance, couldn't help laughing, and asked, "What is your highness looking for?" ”
Liang Xi pouted, looking like she was about to cry. "It's a rock! It was left to me by my mother, and I have always carried it with me since I was a child, which is very important! ”
Liang Xi's answer made Mu Qing and Zhu Yu puzzled. A stone? Or did Shen Zhen give it to her son like a baby? What stone can be so precious and rare?
"Your Highness, when did your stone fall? Where did it fall? Zhu Yu asked with concern.
"That's what I just dropped here! It fell in this haystack, but I couldn't find it after looking for a long time. Liang Xi said with a sad face, "If I let my mother know that I lost it, I will be very angry!" ”
Mu Qing couldn't help but feel funny when he saw Liang Xi's sad face, so he instructed Zhu Yu on the side: "You help His Highness find it together!" ”
Zhu Yu nodded in agreement, leaned down to look at Liang Xi again, and asked softly, "This imperial garden is full of stones, Your Highness, what is so special about your stones?" It is also convenient for slaves and maids to identify. ”
Liang Xi thought about it, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said anxiously: "There is a red line on my stone!" ”
As soon as Liang Xi finished talking about the general characteristics of the stone, Mu Qing and Zhu Yu joined the team to find the stone.
It didn't take long for Dogwood to have a harvest, and sure enough, she had picked up a stone in the grass near the Imperial Garden. Dogwood looked at the stone for a while, but she really couldn't see anything famous, if it weren't for the red rope hanging on the stone, looking at the shape and color of the stone, Dogwood really thought it was just an ordinary broken stone.
Zhu Yu took Liangxi's stone back to Mu Qing's side and said with a smile: "Niangniang, look, it's really a stone." The slave and maid were lonely and unheard, and they really couldn't see any difference between this stone and ordinary times. Take a look, mother. ”
Mu Qing took the stone in Zhu Yu's hand, looked at it carefully, and suddenly his face changed, he grabbed the stone in his hand tightly, his eyes couldn't take half a minute off it, and his eyes were gradually covered with a layer of mist.
Almost at the same time, Liang Xi also came to Mu Qing's side, he looked at Mu Qing with his eyes, and saw that this beautiful sister was still holding on to the stone, and the expression on his face became more and more strange. Liang Xi looked at the stone in Mu Qing's hand worriedly, and asked timidly, "Can you give me back my stone?" ”
However, Liang Xi's inquiry was lost in the sea, and he did not get a response from Mu Qing, which made Liang Xi a little uneasy. He wanted to reach out and take back the stone from Concubine Chen's hand, but because he was short, he couldn't reach it at all.
Not only Liang Xi, but even Zhu Yu also felt Mu Qing's weirdness, and opened her mouth to remind: "Niangniang, this stone belongs to His Royal Highness the Prince, don't you give it back to him?" ”
Mu Qing seemed to wake up from a dream, and only then did she realize her overreaction, but she did not rush to hand the stone in her hand to Liang Xi, but stared at his immature and innocent face in a daze, as if she couldn't see enough. In a trance, Mu Qing wanted to reach out and touch Liang Xi's side face, but Liang Xi avoided it in a panic, looking at Mu Qing with some fear and defense.
Mu Qing took a deep breath, pulled out a far-fetched smile, spread out his palm, and said in an almost choked tone: "Your Highness, who gave you this stone?" ”
Liang Xi paused and replied honestly: "It was given to me by my mother, and she said that she wanted me to keep it, and I have carried it since I was a child." ”
Mu Qing continued to ask eagerly, "Then where did your mother get this stone?" ”
Liang Xi thought about it for a long time, and finally shook his head silently.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Yu was really puzzled in her heart, and couldn't help but whisper next to Mu Qing's ear, "What's wrong with Niangniang?" But what's wrong with this stone? ”
Mu Qing still stared at Liang Xi, did not answer, went to a statue and stood silently, after a long time, Liang Xi began to be a little anxious, Mu Qing came back to his senses and handed the stone in his hand to Liang Xi. Mu Qing's eyes stared at him tightly, her eager eyes seemed to be able to breathe fire, and she said in a dumb voice: "Your Highness is so good to take it, don't lose it again." ”
The baby finally returned to his hands, Liang Xi was finally relieved, grinned, and said, "Thank you, Concubine Chen." With that, he trotted away from the Imperial Garden, and disappeared in a short time......
Mu Qing looked at the direction Liang Xi left, stunned, her heart was like a heart-wrenching pain, she said to Zhu Yu with a sad face: "Let's go back to Chenzhi Palace!" ”
Zhu Yu was really puzzled by Mu Qing's sudden change, and asked unrelentingly, "Niangniang, what's wrong with you?" ”
But Mu Qing still didn't answer, and still said: "Let's go back to Chenzhi Palace." With that, he walked towards the front. (To be continued.) )
