Mu Hua glanced at the moon in front of her, and guessed that her current appearance might have something to do with her past, so she also looked at the frightened "little deer" and said: "You don't have to worry, the Stygian Moon Palace is the number one faction in the rivers and lakes, and there will be no more days like this when you go to the Stygian Moon Palace, and you will be the disciples of the Styx Moon Palace, and no one will hurt you and persecute you." ”

After listening to the words of the mild-faced elder brother, these children all looked at the moon with some fear in their eyes, and then looked at the others, and after seeing the pure and harmless face of the cold spirit, someone finally spoke up first. "I do."

"I would too." There was one and two, so the children all agreed to enter the Stygian Moon Palace in the end. According to them, they were all beggars and some orphans, all of whom were captured by Yufengtang, and forced them to practice here and there all day long, and if they refused, they would be beaten.

Some of them were even forced to kill their companions, Yuexia was not much surprised to hear this, but Han Ling and Leng Qiu listened carefully, although their training since childhood was stricter, but they had never done such a thing, and they couldn't help but be a little angry.

Of course, other people don't have such a big reaction, and they are not qualified to say anything about others if they understand in their hearts what their means are.

The guards had already carried all the things away, and at this time, Yuexia turned around sharply and looked at a slightly floating bush, "Come out." ”

Hearing her words, a few people really came out of the bushes, and under the moon, two of them were the so-called jingle bells, and a middle-aged man next to him was a little strong, but not fat, looking at them like that, they must be their masters or elders.

"What are you doing here?" Yuexia frowned and asked.

The middle-aged man laughed dryly, "I heard from the two apprentices about your coming to the Imperial Wind Hall, so I came over to see if there was anything I could do to help, just to see, where does the palace master need our help!" ”

"The palace master is so powerful! That sister is so good. Ding Ding said, the bell stabbed her and told her to shut up, she pouted, it was originally ah, they all saw it with their own eyes, although it was far away.

Yuexia raised her eyebrows, and her hand was released, she didn't come to kill anyone, and besides, she shouldn't kill in front of these children, so she let go of that thought, and besides, there was nothing wrong with them.

"If it's all right, leave quickly! This is not the place for you. Yuexia said lightly, and turned to leave.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the middle-aged man said behind them, "Thank you for the palace master's relief, I will definitely repay you in the future!" He bowed his hands behind the departing under the moon, and the tinkling bell followed them to see them go.

After they were all gone, the temple caught fire and continued into the night.

Under the moon, they rested for the night, and on the second day, under the moon, the guards brought the children back to the palace to settle down, while the few of them rushed to Qipan Mountain.

It's now past the middle of February, and the weather is getting warmer, except for the cold winter heading north.

They were not in a hurry along the way, they just took a tour of the mountains and rivers, and they also learned about the folk customs by the way, and she found that the women in their area did not have the complicated rules of the women in the imperial capital, and the streets were full of girls with flowers and branches. Of course, what she said was serious, not those dusty women.

"Are you the same there as here?" Yuexia suddenly asked Mu Huaqian, who was shopping with her.

He smiled, "You'll know then." ”

Yuexia is a little dissatisfied, since the last time she talked to him, she didn't check his details again, but gave each other a respect, but he didn't even say this differently, she said, it's too much! "I don't want to know anymore." As she spoke, she walked forward quickly, Mu Huaqian shook her head helplessly, it's not that he didn't say it, it's just that it's not time yet.

"Yue'er......" He followed behind her like a dogskin plaster, pestering her and not letting go, and suddenly Yuexia also stopped, looking straight ahead.

Mu Huaqian looked at her strangely, and what caught her eye was a man dressed as a scholar, sitting in front of the stall and painting portraits.

The eyes of the two narrowed slightly at the same time, and Yuexia said loudly: "I didn't expect to meet again, it's really a narrow road!" With that, she walked towards the stall, but she didn't notice the slight glint in Mu Huaqian's eyes.

"Bang-" The hundred tables under the moon not only shook the woman in front of the stall, but also shook the paint in front of the painter and spilled it on his half-finished painting. And Yuexia didn't care about it at all, "What a coincidence, we meet again!" ”

The woman who was originally sitting in front of the stall secretly left, and at a glance, she knew that the two people in front of her were not easy to mess with, although the man was handsome and extraordinary, but she still didn't have the courage to hook up when she looked at the woman's momentum, so she could only give way obediently.

Yuexia was obviously very satisfied with the girl's acquaintance, and she didn't say thank you, what a mistake!

The painter shook his head, not looking at the deliberate troublemaker under the moon, but changed all his paints on his own, and threw away the half-finished portrait by the way. He doesn't like flawed things, not at all.

It wasn't until he cleaned up that he asked Yuexia, "Dare to ask the girl if she wants to paint?" He asked, unchanged.

The moon looked at him, as if he didn't know himself, hum! He did it, and Mu Huaqian behind her stood behind her without saying a word, no longer looking at the painter.

"This girl wants the artist to make a painting that will shine, and I will buy it for as much as I want." Yuexia said directly, she looked at the painter in front of her, if he still refused to sell, then she was ready to take him back to entertain her, anyway, she was bored now.

The painter looked at the moon and said word by word: "I don't paint anymore, I will only paint that kind of painting once, and then, even if you kill me, I won't." After that, he no longer looked at the moon, but glanced at Mu Huaqian behind her, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Yuexia blinked lightly, and continued quietly: "Then how about asking the painter to sell me what you painted last time in the imperial capital?" ”

"I'm sorry, I've already said it below, it's not for sale."

Yuexia's eyes turned cold, but someone still looked like nothing happened, because of Xiao Jiuyin's incident last time, so she forgot the idea of using some means in the future, but this time, if he didn't pay it, then don't blame her for being polite.

"Do you sell or not?" Yuexia leaned over and looked at him dangerously, don't look at him with a good skin, provoke her and let him be a handsome son, she can also beat him into a pig's head.

"Not for sale." still vetoed, and her tone firmly let the moon burst into flames, but when she just wanted to have a seizure, she heard him say again: "Xiaosheng has already given that painting to the Seven Princes of Xiting, if the girl wants it, go get it herself!" With that, he picked up his pen again and began to draw on the spread out rice paper.

Yuexia looked at this person in a daze, slapped the table again, and sprinkled a piece of the paint that had just been changed, "Didn't you say you didn't sell it?" Why did you sell it to other people's princes, but you didn't sell it to me? Yuexia said unhurriedly, what does it feel like to know that your portrait has been given away? It's awkward to death.

A trace of murderous intent flashed in Mu Huaqian's eyes, looking at the painter, but he didn't make a move after all, and the latter also looked at him as if he felt it, and a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes. The brief exchange between the two did not escape the eyes of the moon, but she chose to wait and see.

"Xiao Sheng just said that the painting was not for sale, and he didn't say that the portrait could not be given away! Girl, I'm afraid you'll be mistaken! As he spoke, he began to collect the paint on the table again, but there was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Yuexia took a deep breath, she looked at the painter in front of her, she knew that this person must not be an ordinary person, because not only his temperament, but also Mu Huaqian seemed to know him, and she was clear about the communication between the two of them, although she didn't look at Mu Huaqian.

"Prince Xiting? Do you know what kind of crime can be sentenced for saying such things in the territory of the East Court? Yuexia said casually, if she guessed correctly, this person was not from Dongting, or he was very close to Xiting.

"The West Court and the East Court have always been in a friendly relationship, and I thought that the trade was also very close, Xiao Sheng just met the Seven Princes by painting during his travels, what does the girl mean by that?" He packed up the paint, spread the rice paper, but did not put the paint on the table.

There is really nothing he can do about it, and there is no way to do it under the moon, it seems that this person is quite familiar with the law and the situation of the two countries.

Mu Huaqian glanced at him disdainfully, this kind of person is really shameless, he even deceived his own reputation, phew, what a human-faced beast.

"Yue'er, he won't give it back to you, let's go! The province is disgusted to see such shameless people. Mu Huaqian said viciously, and he was going to pull up the moon.

"Don't talk about others if you don't have a face for yourself." The painter spoke nonchalantly, not looking at them.

Hearing them say this, where are you willing to go? Hurriedly grabbed his hand, "Hey flowers, wait, do you know each other?" She looked at the two of them, these two people seemed to have a narrow path, no one would let anyone, what was the relationship? Could it be that Mu Hua was a person from Xiting before? She thought it was possible.

"I don't know, my son doesn't know this kind of person." Mu Huaqian stroked the hanging hair of his sideburns and said with a proud look.

The painter also sits with "thousands of manners", and the reason for the thousands of manners is that people sit too temperamentally, which is simply beyond the scope of a painter.

"Each other, each other!" He replied with the same disdain.
