Chapter 117: Temptation
Mu Yu was stunned: "Hey, why are you coming in?" I said I'm going to rest! ”
Situ Yu sat on the bed and tried the bed board calmly, touched the brocade quilt again, and then said to her with an indifferent expression: "Didn't I tell you, is this my room?" ”
"But you've already let me live! Didn't you keep me here? "Mu Yu wondered if he had drunk too much, or if the poison had not been cleared?
"I let you stay here, and I did say that I would let you live in this room, but I didn't say that I don't live here!" Situ Yu looked at her with a serious and reasonable look.
"......" Mu Yu stared at him with wide eyes, and after a moment, he turned around and walked out, "It's okay, you can live, I'll go to the opposite room and make a sound to squeeze." ”
"Uh, there's ...... room over there."
"Ahh There's a ghost......"
Before Situ Yu finished speaking, a scream came from outside the house.
The pastoral rumor was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.
Situ Yu got up and walked to the door, and said with a straight face to the panicked voice: "What are you yelling about?" ”
"King, lord, there are ghosts in the house!" Rang Yin said as he looked behind him.
"The house has not been inhabited for a long time, and some unclean things are normal, just such a little guts, how can you protect the master, go down!"
"Yes!" Lang Yin glanced at Situ Yu weakly, and felt that the master's power might be more terrifying than a ghost, so he quickly settled down and retreated.
Mu Yu had already turned around, walked back to the eaves, and winked at Situ Yu: "Well, I thought about it, this house is big, it's more comfortable to live in, it's better for me to live here!" As he spoke, he hurried into the house.
Situ Yu couldn't help but grin when he looked at her, and nodded with satisfaction to the dark place outside the house before entering the house.
The first time I saw the master smiling so happily, and I got the master's affirmation, I shyly smoothed the hair in front of my forehead, thinking, this time I can offset the merits, I don't need to go to the Punishment Palace!
"There's only one bed in this room, are you sure you're going to sleep with me tonight?" Situ Yu looked at her playfully.
Mu Yu sat on the edge of the bed, raised his face slightly and said, "Hmph, think beautifully!" Is this girl's cheap so easy to take advantage of, you make a bunk on the floor, and I sleep in the bed! ”
"How can you think that I am taking advantage of you, not that you are taking advantage of me!"
Mu Yu glanced at him: "Okay, His Royal Highness King Chen is like a flower and jade, the country and the city, Wanyan knows that his face is ugly, and he didn't dare to scare His Highness, so he had to ask His Highness to be wronged for one night and sleep on the ground." ”
"Master, the bathing water is ready!" Ah Suo and Ah Shang bowed at the door.
"Okay, I got it!" Mu Yu motioned for them to stand back, looked at Situ Yu and was about to speak, but he robbed him: "Alas! Forget it, since Concubine Lin is so faceless, the king has to go back to the house to find another beauty to accompany her. As soon as the words fell, the man sat down beside her, took her into his arms, and kissed her on the smooth forehead.
Mu Yu was about to break away, and said in a low magnetic voice: "I won't enter the palace these days, you be careful yourself, if there is something, let the sound pass to me, if it's urgent, you can let this out," a small barrel-shaped thing, which is a signal flare commonly used on the rivers and lakes, saw Mu Yu put it away, and said: "There is an imperial doctor by the queen's side, who is good at disguise, do you have a way to deal with it?" ”
Mu Yu understood what he meant, and nodded: "Can you go back and tell Shuang'er that I will stay in the palace for a while, and let her help me pack some things and ask someone to bring them in." ”
"Well, I'll have someone bring it in tomorrow!" Situ Yu pinned a few strands of her hanging hair behind her ears and said gently, "Is there anything else you want?" ”
Mu Yu was slightly stunned, and immediately said: "I still want a map of the palace." It was rare for Situ Yu to take the initiative to ask, how could she let go of this great opportunity.
Situ Yu frowned, obviously didn't expect her to make such a request, and nodded after a while: "Okay!" I'll put it in my clothes so no one can find out! He paused, "Is there anything else you want?" ”
Mu Yu thought about it vigorously, and felt that there was no need for anything else for the time being, so he shook his head, and Situ Yu was a little disappointed and a little reluctant to say when he saw this: "Then I'll go, you can rest early!" ”
When he was about to walk out the door, Mu Yu suddenly remembered something: "Hey, are you really leaving?" But......" she looked around with a frown, and stopped talking.
Situ Yu hooked his lips and smiled: "Don't worry, this king is too angry, and the ghosts are afraid, as long as you don't leave this house, there will be nothing." ”
Mu Yu was dazzled by his laughter, nodded stupidly, and only then went to the bath room in amazement until his figure disappeared completely.
Lying on the comfortable pear wood carved bed, the pastoral song tossed and turned.
originally wanted to let Lang Yin sleep with him, but he remembered that she said that Situ Yu never let other women into his house, so he had to give up. In desperation, she had no choice but to order someone to light up the house.
In fact, she was not so afraid of ghosts in the past, but today she was so frightened by Situ Yu, and she thought that there were too many resentful spirits in the palace, and she was only afraid that there were really unclean things, so she was a little timid.
There are a lot of things to encounter today, although Mu Yu's body is tired, but his brain is very excited, and he keeps replaying those wonderful moments in the day, and the more he wants to sleep, the more awake he is.
Especially Situ Yu, his gentleness made her a little confused, and she even felt that if she continued to get along with him like this, she would definitely throw away her armor and disarm and surrender.
She sighed that her heart was not firm enough, and on the other hand, she complained that Situ Yu was intent on provoking her, so from the head of the bed to the end of the bed, from lying on her side to sleeping on her stomach, and finally tossing for most of the night and finally getting tired, she hugged the jade pillow and closed her eyes, there was a faint breath left by Situ Yu on the pillow, she sniffed gently, a little like lying in his arms, following the feeling that made her greedy, she slept very well in the second half of the night.
The next day, before the pastoral rumor got up, Ling Shuang's burden had been sent to the "Yongchen Palace".
Although three days was not too long, Mu Yu always wondered whether Mu Yu was her brother or not, so she couldn't calm down.
She asked Ah Suo to inquire if Princess Hele had entered the palace, but the news that came back said that Princess Hele had accidentally twisted her foot last night and was going to rest in the post house for two days.
How can it be so coincidental? Mu Yu muttered in his heart, it seems that he can only stay in peace and recuperate in the past few days.
I don't know how Situ Yu told Queen Xiao, but no one came to disturb her for three days. The boring pastoral rumor sleeps until three o'clock in the morning every day, and then pulls a few girls to chat for a long time, and this time passes quite quickly.
Three days later, Mu Yu's leg had fully recovered and his spirit was fully raised. Early in the morning, there were palace people who came to the Yongchen Hall on time to convey the will of the queen.
The pastoral rumor was packed up and followed the people of the palace all the way to Yanfu Palace.
Yanfu Palace is really as Ah Suo said, it is luxurious, full of flowers, and beautiful.
In a flower hall, Queen Xiao sat upright and talked about homely things surrounded by a group of concubines. Because Emperor Shuntian's harem was no longer drafted ten years ago, there were not many concubines, and Empress Xiao was a very lazy person, reducing the daily morning and dusk to the first and fifteenth of each month, and today it happened to be fifteen.
When everyone saw the pastoral rumor coming, they stopped talking.
Under the guidance of the palace people, the pastoral salute greeted the present one by one, and when he reached the last one, a familiar and stunning face came into his eyes.
Xi Ruoya! How did she get here so early? After being stunned for a moment, Mu Yu respectfully saluted her, but was not given a seat by the queen, so she had to stand aside.
Empress Xiao drank morning tea unhurriedly, and when the concubines saw that the queen mother did not speak, no one dared to speak first, but only looked at the legendary ugly woman from time to time, and whispered in private.
"Lin Wanyan, although you have a poor background and have been in the rivers and lakes since you were a child, as the daughter of Jiangmen, a member of the royal family, you can't help but know the etiquette, from today on, you will follow Mama Li, learn the court etiquette well, learn it as soon as possible, and return to the Chenwang Mansion as soon as possible." Seeing that it was almost cold, Empress Xiao spoke.
"Queen Xie Niang Longen, Wanyan should be humble and learn, and she will live up to her mother's hard work!" The pastoral rumor bent his knees in thanksgiving.
"Well, get up, look at it and be sensible! I heard that you have ruined your appearance because of poison," Queen Xiao sighed lightly, revealing a very regretful expression, "This woman's appearance can be related to the happiness of a lifetime, and it is strange to see you like this. ”
When the pastoral rumor heard this, he was grateful, and saluted and shouted: "The queen is really kind-hearted, Wanyan thanks the queen for her great kindness, thank you for her great kindness!" ”
When Empress Xiao saw her on the road like this, she was very satisfied, and immediately asked the palace people to pass on the royal doctor.
Mu Yu took advantage of the time to salute, put a prepared pill into his mouth, and said in his heart: Sure enough, as Situ Yu expected, this Empress Xiao really doubted her appearance, but fortunately he reminded her, otherwise I am afraid that I will be guilty of bullying the king today.
In order to be able to witness the whole process with her own eyes and not to embarrass Lin Wanyan too much, Empress Xiao ordered the two of them to be treated in a small pavilion not far away.
The imperial physician looked at the pastoral rumors and checked the pulse, locked his eyebrows for a while, shook his head and sighed to himself, and finally replied to Queen Xiao with a gloomy expression: "Queen Mother, Wei Chen is only a shallow learner, and I really can't tell what the poison in Concubine Lin is, I can't cure it, and I ask the queen to forgive me!" ”
"Oh, you mean, Concubine Lin really ruined her appearance due to poison? And you can't heal it? Empress Xiao still had some doubts in her heart.
"Yes, the poison in Concubine Lin's body is a combination of several poisons, and this poison is only used to disrupt people's appearance, and it has no effect on the body. Because he didn't know the type of poison, Weichen didn't dare to use the medicine rashly. ”
When Empress Xiao heard this, she looked at the sad pastoral rumor and comforted: "Since this is the case, you can only blame the heavens for not fulfilling people's wishes!" Fortunately, His Royal Highness King Chen did not dislike you, and the mourning family was very good to see him, as long as you are well-behaved and sensible, I believe Ruoya will also help you. Being able to find a place to live, worry-free food and clothing for the rest of your life, is also a woman's blessing, I hope you know how to cherish it! ”
"Xie Niangniang's teachings, as far as Wanyan is concerned, she has no illusions, and if she can serve the princess and princess, Wanyan will know enough!" The pastoral rumor deliberately concealed the sadness in his eyes.
"It's good that you can think so!" Empress Xiao nodded and looked at the concubines with some impatience.
She deliberately chose to let the imperial doctor diagnose and treat the pastoral rumors at this time, but she wanted to diagnose her if she used the art of disguise, just to treat her in front of everyone for the crime of bullying the king, and Situ Yu couldn't get rid of it, but now that she got such a result, she was not in the mood to pay attention to those resentful women in the deep palace, so she sent them away, and ordered Mama Li to take the pastoral rumors down to teach etiquette.
Mu Yu followed behind Mama Li with an obedient appearance, but she was secretly proud in her heart. The pill just taken will cause people to have symptoms of poisoning in a short period of time, and this symptom only manifests on the face, and can only last for two hours, after two hours, the poison will be automatically excreted from the body, and the facial sores will disappear automatically.
This pill was developed by Hua Lao himself, and the poison attribute could not be discovered by ordinary people.
When only Empress Xiao and Xi Ruoya were left in the flower hall, Situ Ji, who was dressed in a light yellow python robe, walked out of the screen behind the flower hall.
