285. [VIP] 227 Fire
Night is gradually falling, in the thatched house, the dim light of the oil lamp falls in the corners of the house, and a woman in a goose yellow dress sits at the table, looking at the table full of dishes, her face is full of surprise.
"This, all of this is what you did?" Yun Yan pointed to the dishes on the table, looked at the man opposite, and asked in surprise.
Hearing this, Mu Jingnan smiled to himself, "It's just me and Yan Er here, Yan Er didn't do it, so naturally I can only do it." What does Yan Er think of this dish? ”
The corners of Yun Yan's mouth twitched, was he saying in disguise that the fish soup she cooked for him last time was ugly and unpalatable? However, the dishes he makes are really good-looking.
Let's just talk about the green vegetables, which are verdant and shiny, and they look very appetizing. There is also the fried shredded potatoes with green peppers, the shredded potatoes are moderately yellow and white, plus the embellishment of green peppers, just looking at it feels good, there is a big roast chicken on the table, the skin is yellow and crispy, it smells fragrant, and there is a large plate of steamed buns, white, soft, even the porridge in her bowl is glutinous, it looks extraordinarily delicious. This was the first time she had cooked, but she didn't know he could cook.
"Eat quickly, otherwise it won't taste good if it's cold." Mu Jingnan said while helping Yun Yan pick up vegetables.
Yun Yan came back to her senses at this time, she nodded, but she was thinking in her heart, whether this can be cooked, you have to taste it to make a conclusion, she took a bite of the dish he sandwiched in the bowl, and suddenly, she was stunned, her brows were frowned, and she looked pained.
Looking at Yun Yan's stiff face, Mu Jingnan was slightly shocked, "It's not delicious?" He frowned, "Then don't eat it, spit it out." With that, he got up and prepared to help her get the spittoon.
Yun Yan sneered, grabbed Mu Jingnan, and looked at his slightly frowning brow, "Tease you, if this is not delicious, those cooks in the palace will all die of shame." ”
Mu Jingnan raised his eyebrows, when did she become so naughty, he smiled helplessly: "If you like to eat, just eat more." Saying that, he helped Yun Yan pick up vegetables again, and it was enough to get her praise.
"When did you start cooking?" Yun Yan looked at Mu Jingnan while eating, it should not be easy for a big man to make a good meal, not to mention, it was him. At this level, it must have taken him a long time to learn. As for herself, she was probably born with no talent for cooking, and she can do everything else, but cooking stumped her.
Mu Jingnan's movements in his hands did not decrease, and his voice was soft, "Not long ago." ”
After a pause in chopsticks, Yun Yan looked at Mu Jingnan in surprise, he just started making it not long ago, and he can do it without losing to those who specialize in cooking?
As if sensing what Yun Yan was thinking, Mu Jingnan raised his eyes to look at her and chuckled, "Yan Er doesn't believe it?" ”
Yun Yan shook her head slightly, how could she not believe his words, but this really surprised her too much, but, as if thinking of something, she said suspiciously: "Good manner, what are you learning to cook?" ”
Mu Jingnan was originally cutting the roast chicken with a knife, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he continued the movements in his hands, "The cooks in the palace are not good at cooking, so I learned to cook it for myself." As he spoke, he handed the sliced chicken thighs to the Yunyan bowl and said with a smile, "Eat this." ”
"......" Yun Yan glanced at Mu Jingnan, was it because after eating the fish soup she made last time, he was afraid to taste her cooking again, so he simply learned it by himself? But where did he make it for himself, it was clearly for her to eat, and her bowl was about to pile up again.
Yun Yan's heart was full of emotion, he had done too much for her. She lowered her head slowly, tears in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Mu Jingnan noticed that Yun Yan's expression was different, and hurriedly said.
Shaking his head, the corners of Yun Yan's mouth twitched, raised his head, looked at Mu Jingnan, and chuckled, "I'm just thinking, if you are born as a woman, I'm afraid you will be married." went to the hall and got down to the kitchen, I'm afraid that many young talents are vying to come to ask for marriage. ”
Hearing this, Mu Jingnan said with a smile, "It turns out that Yan'er is worried about this?" If that's the case, then I'll marry Yan'er and cook for Yan'er every day. A wicked smile flashed across his handsome face, and he slipped some meat again and put it in her bowl.
Yun Yan glared at Mu Jingnan, he didn't forget to tease her anytime and anywhere, where did she come from in the next life, she was about to speak, and suddenly there was a fragrance from the tip of her nose.
"Be careful, there's a scent!" Yun Yan and Mu Jingnan said at the same time, their eyes were slightly downcast, looking at each other, but their thoughts had already fallen elsewhere.
At this moment, suddenly there was a sound of metal colliding on the door outside, the lights in the house were shaking, and there was a faint sound of wind whistling outside, mixed with the sound of thunderbolts and something burning.
The two looked at each other and nodded, stood up at the same time, and looked out the door, a firelight, getting stronger and stronger.
"Looks like someone wants to kill us, so let's get out first." Mu Jingnan said in a low voice, directly took Yun Yan's hand, and walked towards the door.
However, when he arrived at the door, Mu Jingnan went to open the door, but he couldn't open it, obviously someone locked it outside.
Standing behind Mu Jingnan, Yun Yan listened attentively, the footsteps outside seemed to be getting softer and softer, and those people should have left just now. Looking out through the window, the fire was glowing, and the room was getting hotter and hotter, and the house was built of thatch, which was especially easy to ignite in this summer, and if they did die here, many people would think it was an accident.
"Yan'er, stand back." Mu Jingnan had a calm face and whispered to Yun Yan behind him.
Yun Yan realized and stepped back.
Seeing that Yun Yan was already in the safe area, Mu Jingnan stared at the door, the internal force in his hand was secretly gathered, and with a palm swing, the door was directly knocked out. He pulled Yun Yan and walked straight out.
Several thatched huts were all burned, and the fire filled the sky, forming a beautiful scenery in the dark night.
Standing in the distance, looking at the raging flames, Mu Jingnan's eyes seemed to be burning, and a burst of anger erupted in the whole person, he held Yun Yan's hand tightly, and a cold was awe-inspiring on his face.
Feeling the power in his hand, Yun Yan tilted his head, looked at him, and sighed, "Do you have a candidate in your heart?" ”
"Doesn't this look like the first time the two of us came to Dongliang Mountain together?" Mu Jingnan looked at Yun Yan and asked rhetorically.
Yun Yan's eyes sank, and he nodded, someone also came to assassinate that day. Those people were clearly aimed at her, and she didn't find out who did it to her at the time, and no one asked about it after that, but that didn't mean that she didn't think about who it was.
Today, she and Mu Jingnan came to Dongliang Mountain, and few people should know about it, but the carriage of the Six Princes' Mansion is so obvious, and maybe there are people around them all the time, and it is not difficult to know their whereabouts. The most important thing is that this time, that person's target is her and Mu Jingnan. It shouldn't be Yan Lingxiao, because he knows the strength of her and Mu Jingnan, and he won't do such a thing that he can't win. In this way, it seems that it is already certain.
"Who do you think wants to do to us?" Yun Yan thought about it for a while and said to Mu Jingnan, she needed his answer.
Hearing this, Mu Jingnan's eyes lit up slightly, "There are no one else in this world who hates me so much except them." ”
Nodding, Yun Yan asked, "Then what are you going to do?" "What she can think of, he can too.
"I have my own arrangements for these things." Mu Jingnan turned around, stroked Yun Yan's cheek, and said apologetically, "I originally wanted to take you out today to have a good time, but I didn't want to encounter these things, fortunately you are fine, fortunately I am here." ”
Shaking his head, Yun Yan smiled slightly, "It's as if I'm useless." If I can't even protect myself, it will be difficult for me to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes. But he seemed to be deliberately avoiding her something, and she knew that he didn't want her to get involved in those fights, and he made her feel so moved.
Mu Jingnan nodded, his worries did seem to be a little superfluous, his eyes fell on the burning thatched hut again, and the gloom in his eyes resurfaced.
Imperial Palace, Shoukang Palace
Looking at the black-clothed man kneeling below, a trace of fierceness flashed in Empress Dowager Gao's cloudy eyes, and she lowered her voice, "How is it?" ”
The black-clothed man below knelt down, never raising his head from beginning to end, but said respectfully: "With the incense and the fire, they have no chance of surviving, and when the subordinates left, there was no movement in the house." ”
Incense, fire! A trace of relief appeared on Empress Dowager Gao's withered face, and the corners of her shriveled mouth rose slightly, finally, are they all dead? Dying there, I'm afraid no one will suspect her. In this way, it can be regarded as solving the two major problems. Originally, she didn't want to be so fast, but looking at the emperor's attitude towards Mu Jingnan, she had to be on guard, and that Yun Yan, she had not made any moves towards Yun Mo Chengdu so far, did she already have doubts in her heart. Moreover, she seems to have something to do with that Emperor Nanyao, she has a lot of secrets, and such a person can't be kept.
"You go down first." Empress Dowager Gao waved her hand, and the whole person sat crookedly on the soft couch, with a cold smile on her face, and everything was dealt with.
The man in black took the order and retreated directly.
Looking up at the dome, the corners of Empress Dowager Gao's mouth rose slightly, Mu Jingnan and Yun Yan are dead, heh, she wants to see what kind of reaction the other two people will have, they have been working hard for so many years, the people they love the most, the people they hate the most, are all dead, think about what they looked like when they knew the truth, heh, what a wonderful thing this should be.
There was silence in the hall, and at some point, a footstep suddenly came.
Hearing this voice, Empress Dowager Gao frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "Didn't the mourning family say it?" Without the will of the mourning family, shall they not come in and disturb the mourning family? ”
These words were like a stone sinking into the sea, and the footsteps continued to move forward.
Empress Dowager Gao straightened up and looked at the door of the main hall, where a dark shadow walked in, she frowned, "Didn't the mourning family say it?" Let you step back and come back to do something! ”
As if he hadn't heard, the man in black walked towards the hall unhurriedly, until he stopped in the center of the hall, looking at the old woman on the couch, his eyes were cold, and his voice was cold, "Who does the Queen Mother think I am?" ”
