In a daze, Mu Yu was woken up by a soft voice, and when he opened his eyes, the sky outside the cave had turned a faint gray.

Situ Yu smoothed her hair and said softly: "It's almost dawn, we should go!" ”

Mu Yu extinguished the fire and followed them out of the cave.

Outside the cave is fresh and cool, the gray sky is dotted with a bright star, the dew drops between the flowers and leaves are crystal clear, everything is still asleep, everything is as delicate as a new life.

Last night's rain was heavy enough to wash away the shallow mud on the stone wall outside the cave and flow down the rock wall, making the outside of the cave a muddy place. The cave is surrounded by dense trees and bamboos, and there are no traces of ruts as far as the eye can see.

However, Situ Yu saw at a glance that there were a few vague footprints four or five feet away from the cave.

"What kind of place is this, it is obviously next to the palace, but it seems to be far away from the world." is so inaccessible, how can Situ Yu be able to discern the direction, Mu Yu can't help but be a little worried.

Situ Yu saw that her eyebrows were lightly worried, and seemed to understand what she was worried about, so he took her hand and said: "This is Bading Mountain, where the dragon vein of the Changli royal family is located, and it is also a forbidden place. However, you can rest assured that you will not get lost! Then he turned back to Mu Yu and said, "We have to cross this forest with light effort, and there is a hut outside the forest!" ”

Mu Yu nodded, performed light skills in front, Situ Yu followed closely with Mu Yu, and after staying on the bamboo tops a few times, he finally came out of the forest, and sure enough, he saw a simple bamboo house not far away.

A few people walked to the front of the house, and Mu Yu sighed curiously: "There are still people living in such a remote place!" ”

Mu Yu also walked to the hidden room with great interest, and asked as he walked, "Is there anyone?" ”

"Don't shout, this house is mine!" Situ Yu said as he stepped forward and pushed open the door.

The furnishings in the house are simple, only a bed, a chair and a bookcase, the bookcase is placed on the four treasures of the study, and there is a painting, in the painting a few strokes outline the outline of the mountains, there are a few places between the ups and downs of the peaks and valleys stand high, the pastoral Yu looked at it carefully for a while, I don't understand the meaning of this painting, but I have seen this painting from the ink for some days.

"Since this is the forbidden land of the dragon vein, how can you build a house here?" She felt that Situ Yu's actions were always incomprehensible.

"At first, I broke in because of curiosity, but then I thought it was a good place, close to the palace and quiet and pleasant, so I built this bamboo house in order to come out from time to time to relax."

The house was too simple, there was nothing worth studying, and when they got out of the door, Situ Yu closed the door again, and then pointed to the fence next to it and said, "Go this way!" ”

The road was full of mud oars, and the upper of the shoe quickly turned mud color, and the shoes were wet and uncomfortable, so she had to stand on tiptoe and staggered forward. Situ Yu stretched out his hand to support her and tried to let her walk on the stone path.

After going around the fence, Situ Yu stepped forward quickly and peeled off a pile of dead branches and weeds under the cover of the eaves, revealing a half-human-high hole.

Mu Yu looked in amazement at the entrance of the cave, it was so dark that he couldn't see anything, and wondered, "What is in here?" ”

"This is the passage to the Imperial Palace, and you can go directly to the 'Yongchen Palace' when you go out from here." Situ Yu took out the flint from his arms, lit the torch in the hole, and motioned for them to go inside.

Mu Yu looked at the green bamboo and green trees around him, and then looked at Situ Yu who was leading the way in front, and said meaningfully: "You took us to trespass into the dragon vein land, and told us such a secret passage, aren't you afraid that I will manage to break this feng shui?" ”

Situ Yu glanced back at him, and said coldly and arrogantly: "Since this king dares to do it, he naturally has a plan, not to mention that things are man-made, this king doesn't believe this!" "If you want to be the initial emperor to expand your territory, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are stained with blood, how can there be any good feng shui at all!

When they entered the secret passage, Situ Yu re-covered the entrance of the cave.

Mu Yu no longer spoke, but he had a new view of Situ Yu in his heart.

The secret passage is slightly higher than the entrance of the cave, and it can be passed with your head slightly lowered, and every few tens of meters, there is a night pearl the size of a pigeon's egg that emits a faint light.

All the way smoothly forward, there is no fork in it, there is a stone gate at the end, Situ Yu extinguished the torch, put a pearl in his hand into the groove of the stone gate, the stone door slowly opened, the light that shined in was not dazzling, it turned out that outside the stone gate was a dense bamboo forest, the entrance was completely covered.

The Yongchen Hall is very deserted, and there are only the palace people who stay behind to clean. Situ Yu covered the entrance of the passage and said lightly to Mu Yu: "General Mu doesn't need to be sent by this king!"

Mu Yu knew that he was giving an eviction order, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly: "The prince helped him, Yu is grateful, even if the two countries clash, he will first repay the prince when he meets on the battlefield." It's just that my sister is stubborn and refuses to go back with me, and I hope the prince will take care of it! Take care of her! ”

Situ Yu's cold gaze fell on Mu Yu, and suddenly became soft, "The rumor is the woman of this king, this king should be loved and pity, General Mu doesn't have to worry about it anymore!" "The meaning of the words is very clear, although you Muyu is your own brother, but if you are my woman, you don't have to worry about other men. It's just overbearing!

Mu Yu didn't have a mental meeting, thinking that he would be separated from his brother again because of his stubbornness, and he couldn't help but feel sad for a while.

"Brother!" She threw herself into Mu Yu's arms, grabbed his arm, and sobbed: "Brother forgive Ah Yu for his willfulness, you must take good care of yourself!" ”

Mu Yu stroked her back and comforted: "Ah Yu has always been courageous and assertive, my brother knows that I can't stop you, but you should be careful in everything, this is no better than a mountain villa, don't worry my brother!" ”

"Well, Ah Yu knows!" Mu Yu wiped his tears and answered obediently.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the bright red morning glow on the horizon had gradually dispersed. If you don't try to get out of the palace again, I'm afraid that there will be too many people and your whereabouts will be exposed for a while. Mu Yu reluctantly watched Mu Yu leave.

"Let's go! I'll send you to the 'Xi Li Pavilion' first. Situ Yu stepped forward and put his arm around her shoulder as a sign of comfort.

Mu Yu turned his head to look at him in confusion.

"You want Yao Ye Chao has already made some, and it was delivered to Rongyin last night." Seeing her suddenly, and then her expression became happy, she couldn't help asking, "What is the use of that medicine?" ”

She smiled mysteriously and proudly: "Well, this is naturally of great use, but I can't tell you now, wait until I succeed, lest you laugh at me for not knowing medical skills!" ”

Seeing that she was very cute with her pouting mouth, Situ Yu quipped: "Okay! I'm waiting for the good news of you, the great doctor, to see if I can impress me!" ”

The two avoided the palace people, took a shortcut to the 'Xi Li Pavilion', and the pastoral rumor got the pill as he wished, and praised Ye Chao for his ability to do things, and Situ Yu was well-organized.

After breaking through from the palace yesterday, Situ Yu secretly passed the news and made arrangements to let the real Ah Suo return to the Lingshui Palace to stand by. Now that the pastoral rumor has returned, it is inevitable that it will have to be designed again.

Situ Yu asked her to pretend to be the palace maid of the "Qinglian Palace", saying that she was ordered by Concubine Leng Niangniang to send snacks to Princess Yuling, so that she could change Ah Suo back unknowingly. Mu Yu thought to himself, it seems that this Leng Concubine is probably also Situ Yu's person.

Before leaving, Situ Yu shook her hand and imprinted a kiss on her cheek, affectionate and reluctant. Mu Yu felt that since he saw the birthmark on his wrist, he recognized himself as "Ah Mo", and he was full of affection all day long, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

When she returned to the Lingshui Palace, she pretended to be a lock and entered the princess's bedroom, and when she saw that there was no one else in the house except irises, she took out a pill from the medicine bottle and handed it to her: "This is the antidote to the 'reverse sound', you just need to take it to her every night before going to sleep, and it should be a little better after half a month." ”

Iris took the pill, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, her handsome eyebrows stretched, her face was happy, and she said to the herd with gratitude: "If you can really cure the princess's illness, Iris will be at your disposal at any time in the future, go to the soup and fire, and never break her word!" ”

Iris's heart for the princess touched Mu Yu's heart, she shook her head, looked at Princess Yuling sitting on the dressing table, and sighed lightly: "Why do you need to say such things, you and I are both compassionate people, and doing this is just a matter of conscience!" She handed her the bottle, "Here's a seven-day pill, one pill a day, and the rest will be available in a few days." But ......"

She walked to the dressing table, bent her knees and said to the princess who was looking at her: "The princess has been sick for many years, how long does it take to take this medicine to cure it radically, it depends on the situation after the medicine, but the princess must remember that before being cured, she must not show her feet in front of others. You get the idea? ”

Princess Yuling nodded, and Iris replied for her: "Although the princess is young, she is precocious, and she should be able to handle these things." What's more, after being sick for so many years, no one has been able to treat them, and the guys in the Tai Hospital are simply incompetent, and the monthly diagnosis and treatment is even more formal, and the prescription has not changed for several years, so it is very easy to deceive them. ”

"That's easy! I'll try to get you the rest of the pills before I leave, and if that doesn't work, I'll have to ask someone to bring them to you. "Mu Yu is most afraid of being known by Mama Zeng's people, resulting in giving up halfway, and the hard work is in vain, and I am very relieved to have this answer.

"Leave? When? Iris asked nervously with a nervous expression on his face.

Mu Yu knew that she was worried that after she left, the princess's poison would not be cured, so she immediately said: "I don't know when it will be, but I always have to leave." However, don't worry, even if I am not here, the matter of detoxifying the princess will definitely not be left behind! ”

Princess Yuling suddenly got up and grabbed her hand, shaking her head constantly, with tears in her eyes.

Is she reluctant to give up herself! Mu Yu's heart suddenly warmed, gently stroked her hair, and said softly: "The princess's heart Ah Suo understands, but Ah Suo still has important things to do, as long as you follow Ah Suo's words, take medicine on time every day to take care of your body, and we will see you again one day!" ”

At lunchtime, several palace maids talked about the prince's arrest of assassins yesterday, saying that Situ Yu and Mu Yu were two masked heroes, and that Mu Yu was a witch in Miao Jiang who sneaked into the palace in an attempt to harm the emperor. He also depicts the kung fu of several people, who are invulnerable to swords without armor. said, if it weren't for the courage of His Royal Highness the Prince, I am afraid that the emperor has been poisoned, and he will be shocked to hear the rumors.

However, to her delight, it is said that the prince had indeed hired a master to be stationed at the entrance and exit gates, and vowed that unless they were trapped and killed in the mountains, they would be captured alive and beheaded for public display.

Situ Yu really calculated Situ Yu's thoughts, but I was afraid that he would never dream that the people he wanted to catch were already in place at this moment, and they were looking at him with a joke. The more I thought about it, the more comfortable I felt, and I even ate two more bowls of rice.

After eating, Mu Yu came to the camphor tree alone and sat down on his knees. With a solemn expression, she spread out the parchment scroll that her brother had given her, took a deep breath, and began to read it. There is not much content written on it, but it explains the family background of the Xi family.

Mu Yu read it almost in one breath, his eyes changed from initial indifference to surprise, but finally he was stunned, and his eyes always lingered on the last few words.
