Chapter 208: Let It Be
Chapter 208 Let It Be
"Maybe I'll leave the Imperial City, but it's not time for us to be free, I should find out the murderer who killed her for Ling Xingniang and avenge her, after all... That dream was so real. ”
The tone was firm, his head was bowed, and his expression was a little lonely.
Mu Youchen knows that Mu Qianxun is a stubborn character, but once she decides something, there is no reason to change it, so let her be, with him in the sea of swords and fire.
"Okay..."Before the words fell, I heard a trembling sound in the forest.
The two of them instantly looked at the place where the voice came from, and their whole bodies were on guard, there were few people in this forest, it was difficult for them to come at them.
The two glanced at each other, unsheathed their long swords, and slowly turned in a different direction, heading towards the forest.
I didn't go far before I saw a middle-aged man lying on the ground, with his back to them, trying to move forward, and his clothes were torn, which was very laborious.
A flash of surprise flashed in Mu Qianxun's eyes, and he cautiously moved to him, looking at the two blood-red dots on the hem of his calf clothes, and understood everything.
Inserted the long sword back into the scabbard, squatted down, put the jade hand on the man's wrist, frowned, and glared at Mu Youchen: "This person was bitten by a snake, and he didn't come to help?"
"When did Xun'er become compassionate, and what do you care about such idle things?"
Mu Youchen smiled ruffianly, but his movements were not slow, and he helped the man up and sat down against an old tree.
Mu Qianxun rolled his eyes and snorted: "I seem to be so heinous when I say it, how can I remember who said in my ear that I will be chivalrous and righteous in the future!"
Mu Youchen touched his nose in a sneer, and was about to pop out a sentence of youth and ignorance, but he was shocked by the face of the person in front of him, his brows frowned more and more, and his voice sank:
"Xun'er, let's go, this person has a strange face, not like an ordinary person, I am afraid that if I save him, I will be in trouble in the future. ”
Mu Qianxun was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, and said in a calm tone: "It's okay, he has no skills, if he endangers us in the future, he will kill him again, I can save him and kill him."
Besides, if he really wasn't an ordinary person, saving his life might bring something unexpected. Touching him is providential, just a gesture. ”
This man has been poisoned for some time, and now he is groggy, his lips are purple, and there is only one breath left, seeing that Mu Qianxun is insistent, Mu Youchen no longer objects.
Mu Qianxun took out the antidote pill in his arms and swallowed it for the man, it was really a strange thing, he could still encounter poisonous snakes in this season, I really don't know whether to say that he was unlucky, or to praise him for his good luck.
Mu Qianxun leaned on Mu Youchen's arms, bored and waiting for the man to wake up, his eyes rolled and he winked at Mu Youchen:
"Hey, don't you think he's unusual, why don't we search him and see what we can find. ”
Mu Youchen tugged at the corners of her mouth, looking at Mu Qianxun with resentment, where did this girl come from so many strange ideas, she didn't have time to stop it, Mu Qianxun had already squatted down and stretched out her hand.
Just when he was about to touch the shirt on the man's chest, the man reached out violently, grabbed Mu Qianxun's wrist, and opened his eyes.
Mu Qianxun was taken aback, a clever one, and then calmed down, his face turned cold, and he spoke: "Let go!"
The man stared at Mu Qianxun's face, his hand slipped suddenly, and his handsome face with vicissitudes of life was shocked, and his voice was dry: "Ling Xing!"
Mu Qianxun's whole person stiffened, his eyes widened, and he grabbed the man's shoulder, a little crazy, a little urgent: "Do you know my mother?"
The man pursed his lips and avoided Mu Qianxun's gaze: "I don't know, but I just had a relationship." ”
"Where?"
"I don't remember. ”
"You don't say it. ”
"I really don't remember, the girl killed me. "This temper is really like Ling Xing's daughter, but since she doesn't know anything, then don't know.
"You!" Mu Qianxun got up angrily, the person she had just rescued actually wanted her to kill him, I really wondered if he had come to the door to bite the snake himself.
Why are all the people related to Ling Xing unwilling to reveal a word about Ling Xing, so how to investigate the cause of death and how to avenge this revenge.
"If the girl doesn't do anything, I'll go. The man got up against the trunk of the tree, his body staggering, and he walked a little unsteadily.
Mu Youchen stretched out his arm to stop him, with a cold face: "Your Excellency is not from this imperial city, look at the face is very raw, if you don't make it clear today, don't leave!"
"The appearance of the emperor, fate has a love calamity, there are many entanglements, the road ahead is a mystery, everything goes naturally, or Coke is free. ”
The man looked at Mu Youchen and shook it coldly.
Mu Youchen was stunned, he was a fortune teller, it sounded a little interesting, the color in his eyes was a little darker, and he didn't mean to let the man go.
"There are thousands of people in the imperial city, how can you see that everyone is familiar?
However, as you said, I have indeed traveled abroad for many years, and it is not surprising that you have not met me.
As for the doubts in the girl's heart, I will tell you if I want to tell you, and if I don't want to tell you, it is useless for you to force me.
There is a fate to meet, everything cannot be forced, remember, let it be. ”
The man patted Mu Youchen on the shoulder, looked mysterious, and walked away.
Mu Youchen didn't stop it, Mu Qianxun didn't ask again, he made such a fuss, he was in no mood to play, he took the green silk and white snow, and rushed back to the imperial city non-stop.
In the blink of an eye, it was another month, and in a few days, it would be winter, and despite the addition of clothes, it was still bitterly cold.
The Imperial City has always been like this, summer and winter are two extremes, one is hot and the other is cold, and after a while, it will snow again.
For such a season, Mu Qianxun is not to mention sentimentality, firstly, it is an indelible terrible memory in his heart, and secondly, Mu Youchen's hidden illness is about to attack again.
In the Imperial Palace, Chuxiu Palace, after layers of selection, there are only twenty-three show girls left, and nineteen of them are arranged by the ministers of the court.
In this world, there has never been any absolute fairness, even in this palace, Mu Yunfan does not have the energy to keep an eye on any corner, and these ministers will see stitches.
In previous years' drafts, it will not deviate to this point, and the children of ministers and ordinary families may be almost half and half.
But this time is different, for the position of the first queen and the second concubine, they all fought hard, I don't know how much silver was spent, how many layers of relationships were dredged, and I was able to stay in the palace.
The truly talented and good-looking person has long been driven out for various unwritten reasons, but Qingruo stayed, she is outstanding in everything, and no one dares to think about her anymore.
This month, her methods, the aunt who led the show girl, and those unbeatable ministers have all learned enough.
From the moment she just entered the palace, she was the most dazzling one, she didn't restrain her light at all, she should play nine points, she played to ten points, and the people who dealt with her changed one after another, but they still couldn't do anything to her.
If you can solve it yourself, solve it yourself, and if you can't solve it yourself, send a message to Mu Qianxun.
So far, all the ministers who have tried to deal with her in vain have fallen into her hands, and if she asks them to go east, they will not dare to go west, and how can they dare to embarrass her openly and secretly.
And these show girls who stayed behind hated and feared Qingruo, and they didn't even dare to say a bad word behind their backs, what Qingruo needed was this, so she didn't want those false compliments.
Remember, among the people who went on the wheel was Liu Miaochen, the daughter of Liu Shangshu.
Therefore, she was extremely dissatisfied with Qing Ruo for a while, and she couldn't do the secret, but Qing Ruo used boiling water to disfigure her delicate face.
I thought that Liu Shangshu would be furious, but this Qingruo also lived to the end, but he never thought about it, so Liu Shangshu swallowed his anger and let this matter pass.
Since then, everyone has avoided Qing if they can, for fear of following in Liu Miaochen's footsteps.
In the early morning of this day, a father-in-law came to pass on Mu Yunfan's message, saying that after noon, Mu Yunfan would come to Chuxiu Palace in person.
This few words can make Chu Xiugong explode, and he began to apply grease and powder all the time, and then remove the good makeup, and repeat it several times, but he was still dissatisfied with himself, and he didn't even touch a bite of food at noon in the excitement.
Qing Ruo's reaction once again shocked the eyes of all the show girls, she just locked herself in the room and took a simple bath, changing into ordinary dark black clothes.
The ordinary fabric is only the most common cloth in the market, and the style is not outstanding enough, which can't help but make these delicate women who are accustomed to seeing good things sneer.
has long hair, tied up with a crown, and is too lazy to tie a bun, dressed in a river and lake costume.
With a shrill summons, Mu Yunfan appeared in everyone's sight for the first time, saluted, lowered his head, and didn't dare to breathe.
Mu Yunfan's gaze swept over one by one, and finally stopped at Qing Ruo, looking at it carefully, his calm expression fluctuated a little.
Qingruo raised his head and looked at Mu Yunfan's gaze, fearless, but with a bit of respect, uninhibited and polite, and his emotions were just in place.
"What's your name?"
"Slave Qingruo. "If you are blessed, you are neither humble nor arrogant, you call yourself a slave, but you can't hear humility.
Mu Yunfan approached step by step, the hand in his sleeve shook slightly, and his eyes were confused: "Qingruo, you are interesting, why do you want to wear such a dress to see me?"
"I'm used to it, the slave just wants the emperor to see the most real slave and maid, and the slave and maid have always been like this outside the palace. ”
"Oh, I don't know what Lingtang is?" I remember that Nangong Ling loved black clothes very much and didn't like cumbersome buns.
When I first saw her, she was such a neat body, and the smell of this woman was also a little familiar, I don't know if it was deliberate or accidental.
"My father and mother went to the famine when the slave and maid were fourteen years old, and the slave and maid wandered alone in the imperial city for several years, and they didn't remember where their home was. ”
Xiao Se's expression made these words a little more real and sad, Mu Yunfan nodded lightly, turned around, and ordered: "Qingruo." You come with me. ”
Qing Ruo hesitated, and under the surprised gaze of everyone, he followed, his pace steady.
