Chapter 124: Night Casting Spirit Water Palace
When Mu Yu woke up, it was already dawn, and she found herself sleeping on the wooden bed in the hut, but there was no Situ Yu's breath by her side.
The door of the hut was ajar, and the sunlight shining in was a little harsh.
She couldn't remember how she got back here, she only remembered in a trance that she was lying in Situ Yu's arms, the two chatted for a while, fought for a while, and fell asleep unconsciously as the boat rocked.
Thinking of all the things that happened last night, Mu Yu always felt that something was not true, and when she woke up, she found herself lying in place without moving, which made her suspect that it was just a dream. Are dreams so realistic?
"Master, are you awake?" Lang Yin entered the house with rice porridge, and saw Mu Yu's eyes wide open, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Rongyin, did he come last night?"
"Do you mean the prince?" Rang Yin approached her and whispered.
"Is he really here?" It turned out that he was not dreaming.
Seeing her smiling, but smiling differently than usual, she felt a little shy and a little silly, so she said puzzledly: "The prince came to see you, could it be that you were already asleep when he came last night?" But even if he were, he should wake you up! ”
"When did he leave?" Mu Yu didn't bother to answer her doubts.
"When it was almost dawn, the prince asked me to accompany you, and then left."
"Didn't he leave anything behind?" Mu Yu complained a little about himself, why was he so sleepy.
Lane Yin nodded: "Yes." He said that he had sent a message to Empress Xiao, saying that he would punish you for thinking about it, and that he would send guards to guard the 'Xili Pavilion' for the past ten days, and no one would be allowed to visit. The prince also asked me to tell you to be careful when acting in the palace, to protect yourself in case of trouble, and to remember to send a signal if there is danger, and not to be afraid of him being embarrassed. "I have been following the prince for so long, and it is the first time I have seen him babbling like this.
"He even helped me cover up!" Mu Yu felt that Situ Yu really understood himself too well.
Lang Yin smiled: "That's because the prince took you to heart, so he was thinking about what you would do." She opened the pill box and drugged the pastoral.
"Did he say when he would come back?"
"The prince has always acted mysteriously, and I don't dare to ask if he didn't say it. However, if you stay in this palace, how can he rest assured, if it is not something important, he will definitely accompany you. ”
Mu Yu darkened his eyes, how long has it been since they were separated, why do they miss him a little!
"Is Mama Li still here? Also, what about Princess Hele? "I don't have to practice etiquette for the past ten days, and I don't know what the princess will arrange.
"Mama Li is said to be ill and needs to recuperate for a few days, coupled with your injury, the matter of Xi Li is naturally delayed. The queen's original intention was to let Princess Hele go back to the post house first, and then come back when she could do the class. Who knows, the princess refused, saying that it was left and right, so it was better to stay in the 'Xili Pavilion', she refused to leave, and the queen mother was not easy to force, so she acquiesced. ”
Hmph, that Mama Li is simply reaping the consequences, fortunately, those snakes are not too poisonous, otherwise they would have died. But that Princess Hele is really strange, although this is the palace, but this 'Xili Pavilion' looks like an abandoned place, and she is willing to stay.
Mu Yu was thinking about it, when suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Lang Yin hurriedly put a veil on Mu Yu, packed up her clothes, and then went to open the door.
And the person who came in outside the door surprised the two of them.
"I've seen Princess Hele!" Rongyin has always been blessed by people.
Mu Yu looked at the sun coming out of the west, and was a little incredulous, but quickly came back to his senses. She smiled brightly at the princess, and said with crooked eyebrows: "Today is really a good weather, the princess is here, and she doesn't go to see the tea yet!" ”
Looking at tea? Where does the tea come from? The master is dizzy, and he thinks this is the palace! Lang Yin looked at the pastoral song very unnaturally, and smiled at Princess Hele with an embarrassed expression.
Mu Yu didn't notice anything wrong at all, but squeezed his only eye that could show emotion, thinking about how to appear more sincere and cordial, so as to impress this bodhisattva.
"No need!" Princess Hele replied expressionlessly, and took out a small box of things from her sleeve, but when she saw the medicine box on the table, she was slightly stunned, but she still put the thing in her hand next to the medicine box.
Mu Yu stared at her every move intently, and when the small box of things was just taken out, she could see that it was a box of "snow skin cream", and looking at the two boxes of identical medicine on the table, her brain was dizzy for a moment.
Princess Hele didn't have any extra words, put down the pill box, and turned around to leave.
"Hey, wait, you gave me this medicine?" What kind of evil did this wooden princess hit today, and she actually gave her medicine, and Mu Yu was really a little puzzled.
He Le paused, tilted his head slightly and said, "Entrusted by others!" Then, without any further stop, he went straight out of the house.
It's really rare that she actually said two words to herself today, and her voice was quite good, but she was cold and rejected people.
Mu Yu thought for a while, asked Lane Yin to hand her the box of medicine, looked at it carefully for a long time, and made sure that this was a box of fine snow cream with no problem at all.
Entrusted by someone? But who will give her medicine, and still through this wooden princess!
Suddenly, a pair of eyes full of concern entered her mind, could it be him?
Although he gave her the feeling of being like an elder brother, Situ Yu said that he was born in the family of Sang Yue Jiangmen, and he became Sang Yue's deputy general four years ago, so it is impossible for such a background to be an elder brother. But if it weren't for the fact that he didn't know him, how could he help her like that, and how could he look at her like that?
Mu Yu felt that things were a little messy, and he had a headache thinking about it, how could he meet these inexplicable weirdos! She asked Rangyin to put away the medicine and wait for a chance to solve the doubts.
Because the injury was not serious, and I used excellent medicine, except that I couldn't sit and walked a little painfully, my movement was no longer serious, and I could rest for two days at most, and I could be alive again, jumping up and down.
Mu Yu decided to take advantage of these two days to recuperate and plan the next action. On the tenth day, Situ Yu gave her ten days, in addition to two days to recuperate from her injuries, there are still eight days, which should be enough.
Originally, I planned to take advantage of Xi Li's time to quietly investigate, but I didn't expect that after such a fuss by myself, Situ Yu would get such a good opportunity, Mu Yu really felt that this beating was worth it!
On the evening of the second day, the moon disappeared into the clouds.
"Sister Rongyin, Ah Suo is polite!" When Mu Yu appeared in front of Rong Yin dressed as a palace maid, Rong Yin opened a pair of big eyes and couldn't speak for a long time.
"Like! It's so similar! Lang Yin sighed in admiration. Not only the appearance, but also the expression and temperament are the same.
Mu Yu raised her eyebrows proudly, this Ah Suo is similar to her, her personality is more lively than Ah Xiang, and she is more suitable for getting news if she talks more.
"Before I come back, you let people take a good look at Ah Suo and Ah Xiang, don't let them out of the 'Xi Li Pavilion'." Yesterday, she asked Rongyin to get the two girls under the banner of Situ Yu, although they were originally arranged by Situ Yu, and now they have taken refuge in her, but after all, they don't have a deep relationship with themselves, so it's better to be careful.
"Well, if you understand the sound, the master should be careful when he goes. I heard that there is an old lady surnamed Zeng in Lingshui Palace, who was sent by the queen to take care of Princess Yuling, this person has some means, and she is also a well-known figure in Lingshui Palace, if you see her, you must avoid it. ”
"I know, your master and I don't have any other skills, and there are many tricks to play and fool people on the spot!" Mu Yu responded as he hid various necessities such as powders, pills, maps, daggers, etc., into his skirt.
After packing up, Mu Yu took advantage of the dark wind to sneak out of the "Xi Li Pavilion". This Xili Pavilion is full of Situ Yu's people inside and out, and the journey is extremely smooth.
Out of the courtyard gate, Mu Yu saw that there was no one around, so he jumped on the big tree next to him and roughly memorized the path to the direction of Lingshui Palace.
After nine bends and eight turns, the pastoral rumor finally came to the door of the Lingshui Palace.
This is an extremely clear and delicate palace, different from other places, even outside the courtyard gate are standing guard two eunuchs, seeing the pastoral rumors immediately vigilantly stepped forward and asked, "What person?" ”
Their movements and postures look like they have practiced martial arts, and they are by no means as simple as ordinary eunuchs.
"I'm Ah Suo, are the two brothers new?" Because he didn't know their names and was afraid of being goofed, Mu Yu had to pretend to be angry and get close to them.
"Oh, it's Ah Suo! It's just that it's too dark to take a closer look, aren't you going to serve King Chen's side concubine? Why did you come back? One of the handsome little eunuchs reacted very quickly and immediately recognized it.
I didn't expect this trick to work, it seems that I analyzed it well, Ah Suo has a good personality, and his popularity is naturally not much worse.
She immediately made a grievance and said, "Alas! Don't mention it, that Lin ......" She deliberately moved closer to him, pretending to be unfair: "That ugly monster is too difficult to serve, she thinks I'm clumsy and clumsy, so she brought me back, isn't this about to ask Mama Zeng for guilt!" There was infinite melancholy between his eyebrows and eyes, as if he was really afraid of a punishment.
"Isn't it? I didn't know her details before, but I heard the palace maid who went to watch the execution the day before yesterday say that Concubine Lin was so strong, even the prince's big golden snake was fed, and she beat Mama Li to the point that her nose was blue and her face was swollen, and such a woman would dare to marry King Chen, where is this woman, it's a dominatrix at all......"
"You don't say a word, be careful that Mama knows about it and will be punished! Now that Ah Suo is back, it's fine, so let's hurry up and give a gift to Mama! Another little eunuch with a round face and a slightly calm face reminded.
"Yes, it's good to come back, just come back, hurry up and go in, if you come back later, you will have to close the courtyard door." That delicate little eunuch seems to have a good relationship with Ah Suo, and he cares about her.
Fuck your dominatrix! Mu Yu nodded and thanked him on his face, but scolded in his heart. Who are these people, Mama Li is obviously a snake venom, but she depends on her own head! The rumors are not credible!
Smoothly entering the palace courtyard, Mu Yu relied on the description given to her by Ah Suo, and went all the way to Mama Zeng's residence, according to the situation in advance, Mama Zeng should be preparing to go to bed in her room at this time.
This Lingshui Palace doesn't look big, but the road inside is extremely complicated, she turned left and right, and it didn't take long for her to fork in.
"Stop!" The pastor was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a low and old voice sound.
