When Mu Xuan came out of Qiluo Xuan, she happened to meet the princess.

When the princess saw Mu Xuan, she was slightly surprised, she went to the ancestral hall first, and later heard that Mu Xuan had taken the prince away, and inquired all the way to know that she had come to Qiluoxuan.

After she stood still, she blessed her body and called: "Uncle." ”

Mu Xuan didn't look at her anymore, and didn't plan to go to the front to join in the fun, so he went out from the nearest corner gate.

Mu Jing was still able to walk, and walked out with a limp, and the princess was shocked when she saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to help: "What is Uncle looking for you to do?" ”

Mu Jing hated and feared Mu Xuan, and with such an end today, he didn't dare to take any action against Mu Xuan.

The princess saw that Mu Jing was wrong, and said in surprise: "Uncle, what did he do to you?" ”

"Can you pretend you don't know anything?"

"You didn't do anything wrong, why did he beat you. This is too unreasonable, let's go, let's go to my father's comment! The princess was about to go to the ancestral hall with Mu Jing in her arms.

Mu Jing thought that he had no face at all, and glared at the princess and said, "Can you not do much!" I think I'm unlucky to step on the ****. You keep my mouth tight, too. Father, he hasn't looked at anyone well lately, if you dare to tell him right and wrong, I'll give you a good look! ”

The princess was very puzzled, he felt that Mu Jing was very weird, and of course Mu Xuan was also weird. There must be something going on between these two people, and if Mu Jing herself refuses to say it, she will also find a way to find out.

Mu Xuan walked out of the palace, and he rode around Bianliang City on horseback. Although Mu Jing was beaten, the anger in his heart still did not disappear. Later, he bought a jug of wine at a liquor store, carried it in his arms, and went out of town. He did not immediately return to the villa, but went to another place.

When Mu Xuan returned to the Qingyin Pavilion, it was already time to turn on the lights.

It's a silent red maple forest. It's summer, and the leaves are full. When the wind blows, the leaves rustle. Not far from the forest is the flowing Bianhe River.

The ground beneath his feet is where Choi Sang-ju is buried. Mu Xuan looked at this wood, and secretly thought of autumn, the autumn wind blows the maple leaves, and when the red leaves are staggering, what a moving scenery it should be.

Resting in this picturesque place made Mu Xuan feel a little envious.

He sat curled up in front of Cui Shangzhou's grave, poured some of the wine in the wine jug, and said, "I told you last time when I left, so that you can wait for me to come back and drink." I didn't expect goodbye to be like this. God is really making people! ”

"I'm a bad temper person, and I'm even more eccentric. There are not many friends to interact with, except for you. We've been naughty since we were kids, and we don't know how many troubles we've had. was not less reprimanded by the mother. At that time, when I was young, you followed me to call my sister. Until one day, you refused to call her sister anymore, and called her the county lord instead. Do you know how sad my sister is? Say you're not cute. In fact, in my sister's heart, I have always regarded you as a younger brother. ”

Mu Xuan took two sips by herself, poured some more, and continued to talk to herself: "She has been in poor health since she came back from Fujian, and I wanted to hide it from her all the time." But how can I hide it at this step? Even my master is helpless. Dr. Guan was once the imperial doctor who served the Queen Mother, and there was no way. My sister said she wasn't afraid of death, but I was really afraid of losing her. The mother concubine left early, and now that you are gone, if my sister leaves me again......" Mu Xuan's eyes were slightly moist.

He lifted the flask and continued to sprinkle the wine as he said, "She's my sister and yours." Please bless her, bless her safe and healthy, and bless her to pass this hurdle smoothly. ”

Mu Xuan stroked the cold tombstone. Buried in it is his childhood playmate, the best confidant in his life, and the infinite sorrow in his heart. He finally knelt straight in front of the grave, solemnly kowtowed to Cui Shangzhou, and choked up: "Shangzhou, I know that I hurt you." I shouldn't have let you get involved, and in the end, I put your life on the line. You will blame me, and you will recompense it all. ”

The silent woods are peaceful until the breeze blows and the leaves rattle. There was a long hissing from a bird. The hoarse voice was so sad and low. Mu Xuan recognized this bird's call, and the only one who could make such a call was the cuckoo. He looked up to find the cuckoo who was screaming, and he took the tweet as Choi Sang-ju's response to him.

……

The wine soon bottomed out. Mu Xuan got up and said goodbye to Cui Shangzhou. He looked at the bare new grave, and he didn't know when he would meet again, but he was afraid that the grave would be overgrown with grass at that time.

"Sangju, you wait for me. Next time I'll come to you for a drink. Hot tears slid down into the dirt, and he said goodbye to those inside.

When Mu Xuan returned to the Qingyin Pavilion, it was already the time to hold the lamp.

Rong Zheng smelled the wine on his clothes, and she didn't ask anything.

"You're leaving soon, and I've packed up your things for you. Don't go anywhere tomorrow, rest at home for a day, and accompany the county lord well. ”

After all the things that need to be done are done, Mu Xuan agreed casually: "Okay, I won't go anywhere, I'll stay with you at home." ”

Rong Zheng handed over the clothes Mu Xuan had changed to the maid and asked her to wash them and dry them out. Mu Xuan took the book and looked at it under the lampstand.

When Rong Zheng came in, he put down the book in his hand and said, "Don't you even ask me where I went in the afternoon?" ”

Rong Zheng said: "If you are willing to say, I will listen." I don't want to talk about it, I won't ask anything. When will you come back from this trip? ”

Mu Xuan said: "I don't know, I don't dare to promise you." I am afraid that the promise I made will not be fulfilled. ”

Rong Zheng was silent. She didn't want a promise now, she just wanted peace.

At night, the two were lying on the bed, Mu Xuan took her hand and said, "I went to Cui Shangzhou for a drink in the afternoon." I asked him to bless my sister with a smooth passage through this. ”

Rong Zheng is a spirit, and Mu Xuan is also an outsider who doesn't know anything. She wouldn't say anything without a factual basis. With the departure of Cui Shangzhou, this matter will be hidden underground forever.

"I always feel that it was our sister and brother who hurt him, and if he hadn't met us, he wouldn't have died young."

Rong Zheng heard Mu Xuan's guilt, and hurriedly comforted him: "No one wants such a thing to happen, life and death are fateful, and those of us who survive must live well." Even his share ......"

Mu Xuan put her arm around Rong Zheng's shoulder, and the two of them didn't do anything, just snuggled together.

He was also honored to meet someone like Miss Li who valued love and righteousness and was willing to guard him for the rest of his life. It's a pity that he can't respond to this affection anymore. Lady ......"

"Hmm......"

"What if...... If something happens to me one day, I hope you can come out bravely. You don't have to keep it for me. As you just said, you have to live well, and live happily with my share. ”

Rong Zheng tightened in his heart and said, "Don't say stupid things. Seventh Master, he will definitely bless you and the county lord with peace and security for the rest of your life. ”

"Sangju, he might hate us."

"No, how can he hate you, Seventh Master. I don't think he'd ever thought like that, but in this life he met the county lord and you, maybe it's an honor to say to him. ”

Mu Xuan hugged Rong Zheng, he looked at the darkness in front of him, and didn't say anything, Xin Dao was also honored to make a friend like Cui Shangzhou in this life.

On the second day, when Mu Xuan came back from practicing the sword, Rong Zheng had just finished freshening up. The two made an appointment to go to the Splendid Courtyard to see the lord of Duanhui.

Duan Hui has just risen, and he seems to be looking better than before.

Duanhui took the medicine, looked at their husband and wife, showed a relieved smile on his face, nodded and said, "It's rare for you to come to see me together." It is just a place for breakfast. ”

Rong Zheng had the intention to let the two sisters and brothers talk alone for a while, so he got up and said to them, "I'll go to the kitchen to see what I have for today." ”

Duan Hui half leaned on the soft couch, counting a string of prayer beads in his hand.

Mu Xuan looked out the window through the glass window, and the maids in the yard were busy sprinkling and sweeping. He said softly, "Yesterday I went to Sangju for a drink. ”

Duan Hui was startled at first, and then reacted, sighing, "He left like this, leaving behind a pair of elderly parents." I heard that Fifteen Niang is also willing to help him raise his heirs. We should always say something about today's situation. ”

Mu Xuan nodded and said, "My sister said very well, if he hadn't met us, he wouldn't have lost his life in vain." Take care of their family in the future. Help as much as you can. ”

Duanhui remembered the past, and his heart was difficult to settle, but this level had to be passed, and said: "I know what to do, and I have to say that there is a way." Fifteen Niang and Ah Zheng have a close relationship, and in the future, their mother and son's affairs will be our business. His father and I will also find a way to get people to mention something. ”

Mu Xuan didn't know that his sister was so capable, and he was slightly surprised.

Duan Hui remembered something and suddenly asked, "I heard that you sent Steward Qiu to the capital, is there anything wrong?" ”

Mu Xuan said truthfully: "I gave him two things, one is to bring a letter to the prince for me, and the other is to ask him to help me see a suitable house in Beijing." ”

"House? Are you really planning to buy property in the capital? ”

"The prince's intention is to let me first experience two or three years in the big camp, and then stay in the capital, so I will choose a house first. You can also buy some more land. I've already discussed this matter with Ah Zheng. ”

Duanhui didn't complain that her brother didn't tell her, she thought for a while and said, "Cheng, you will develop in the capital in the future." I won't go with you, I'll stay in Bianliang. ”

Mu Xuan was puzzled: "Why doesn't my sister stay with us?" ”

Duan Hui looked around and said, "I can't bear to be here, my mother has lived here for a few years." Someone has to take care of it. Besides, I don't know how long my body can last. I was born here, and I hope to die here in the future. ”

Mu Xuan didn't like to hear such words, so she frowned and said, "I don't have to worry if there is no one around my sister to take care of me, just let someone guard it here, you still live with us." ”

Duanhui was assertive, smiling and shaking his head. She didn't want to go to the capital for many reasons.

"Sister, you also said that you want to help us take care of the children, how can you take the children if you don't live in one place? With Ah Zheng's personality, she must be reluctant to let the child leave her. ”

"That's a problem. But if I stay in Bianliang, I won't change, and you don't need to persuade me. ”

Mu Xuan was very depressed.

Breakfast was ready, and the meal was not put in the flower hall. He set up a meal in Duanhui's banquet room.

Rouge rice with porridge boiled with small red dates, the most tender vinegared cucumber at the moment, and stir-fried eggplant. A basket of thin-skinned buns with sauce and meat, and a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings.

Mu Xuan only drank two bowls of porridge, ate a bun and came down. Rong Zheng was a little puzzled, Mu Xuan has no appetite today?

Early the next morning, Mu Xuan had to hurry to the northwest camp again. When he left, he insisted on not letting Rong Zheng send him, and only told her to take care of Duanhui.

When will we see each other again? Although Rong Zheng was reluctant in his heart, he had to let him go.

After sending Mu Xuan away, Qixia Villa returned to its former calm. Duan Hui kept Rong Zheng to eat the newly born peaches. The peaches are the size of a fist and are very crisp and sweet.

The nurse Chen was talking about the affairs of the palace in front of her.

"I heard that the spirit of the concubine only stayed at home for twenty-seven days, and then she was buried in the ancestral grave."

Duan Hui was puzzled: "Ancestral tomb? The old prince's grave is not in Bianliang, it was originally a mausoleum that was transported back to the capital, could it be that her coffin should also be transported back to the capital? ”

Chen said: "The concubine wants to be buried with the old prince, it should be like this." ”

Duanhui pursed his mouth and snorted coldly: "She is also worthy!" The coffin of the mother concubine is still in Bianliang, why don't you let the mother return to the mausoleum in the capital? ”

How can the Chen family explain the things in the palace clearly, and they can't answer.

Duan Hui sneered: "I want to transport it back to the capital for burial in this weather, but I'm afraid that the corpse will have already rotted, and I don't know how smelly it is." ”

Chan said: "The royal family has many ways to prevent the body from decomposing, so it shouldn't be so easy to rot. ”

Duanhui was not close to Concubine Yan before, and now that something like this has happened, she is even more full of hatred for this grandmother.

She lowered her head and ate the peaches, listening to what corpses, rotting, and smelling words, she suddenly lost her appetite. wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and suddenly heard Duanhui say: "When I die, I will be buried in the coffin of my mother." No need to look for a place. ”

"County Lord!"

Rong Zheng and Chen exclaimed at the same time.

Duan Hui smiled bitterly: "Don't worry, people will always die, but there is nothing to be afraid of." I told you to know, don't forget. I was born in Bianliang and grew up in Bianliang, but I don't want to go back to the capital. The mother concubine is lonely, and I am willing to stay with her all the time underground. ”

Rong Zheng said: "The county lord is still sick, and he should think of something happy, so don't think about it." ”

So much has happened, Duanhui can't be happy even if she wants to.

The Chen family single-handedly raised the Duanhui county lord, like a mother and daughter. Hearing Duan Hui say this, he felt even more uncomfortable, and choked up: "The county lord must take care." We've got a doctor, don't worry. ”

Seeing that they looked worried, Duan Hui smiled and said, "Okay, okay." I won't say anything. (To be continued.) )
