Chapter 69: Saving People
Mo Chen looked at Baizhu standing in front of him, a scarlet groom's dress set off a perfect figure, clean and clear, with the majesty of the royal family, wearing a silver crown, a jade pendant around his waist, and his long hair was lazily scattered behind his shoulders. The original pair of eyes, which were as clean as the sun, were inexplicably gray at the moment.
"What's wrong? Isn't that what you've always been expecting? Mo Chen asked lazily as he picked up the wine glass while propping up the table with one hand.
"Are you knowingly asking?" Baizhu said unhappily.
"So what? This is what you promised your imperial brother, is it possible that you still want me to tell him? Besides, the days are coming, if you come and retreat now, doesn't it feel too much? Can't explain it to that side? Mochen said ruthlessly.
Baizhu stood on the city tower, looking at the red that was getting closer and closer in the distance, knowing that the team to welcome relatives was about to arrive, but for some reason, his heart turned from indifference before to depression and rejection. He threw down his sleeves and looked no further, returned to the table and sat down, picked up the flask in his hand, and drank it himself. A whole pot of wine, and he drank it in one gulp.
Seeing that he finished drinking another pot, Mo Chen hurriedly took his hand to stop him, "If you drink like this again, how will you pick up the newlyweds later?" Anyway, today you are the master's house. ”
"You don't have to worry about it, you can just live happily on your own. Are you still worried about me? ”
"Look at what you say, why does it sound so sour? Aren't you wedding night tonight? I'm afraid that you have snubbed others, and I have to go to your imperial brother to sue you. ”
"I said Mochen, you're still not my brother, if you don't help me, forget it, and talk so much. Do you believe that I told everyone about your family? So that I can leave it unknotted. "Baizhu threatened.
"Tsk. If you dare to do this, it's a big deal that my Shui Zun will go into hiding with her, and you can hide and live in the world of two people anyway. ”
"Hmph."
A eunuch strolled over and shouted to Baizhu: "Back to the prince, the lord of the country asked you to go to the main hall to prepare." ”
"Got it." Baizhu replied impatiently.
Baizhu took two steps, and reluctantly turned around, "If you are free, let Xiaomu help me take care of her and tell her that I will not give up." After saying that, he followed the eunuch and left.
Of course, Mochen knew who he was talking about, for a period of time, Bai Zhu appeared in Yunhai Tower every day to chat with Bai Yuerui, and the two secretly fell in love, but unfortunately the wedding was on, and he didn't want to confess to her openly, so he could only secretly like it, neither of them pierced the paper, but they traveled every day like lovers, talking and laughing.
Ye Xiaomu was afraid of seeing people related to Ye Yuehua, so she didn't follow Mo Chen into the palace, as soon as she entered the store, she saw a female clerk asking the shopkeeper, "Today, why didn't you see Xiaobai get up?" Isn't it uncomfortable? ”
"Uncle Zhang, didn't Xiaobai get up? Then I'll take a look. Ye Xiaomu has been here for a long time, and he is familiar with the people around him, so he went to the room in the backyard by himself.
She knocked on the door, "Xiaobai, is the sun drying your butt?" Why can't you get up yet? ”
Seeing that no one answered, she had to open the door herself, walked inside, and smelled a slight smell of drugs. She rushed to Bai Yuerui's bedside and opened the quilt, but there was no one inside.
Ye Xiaomu immediately ran to the pavilion, and when he saw Aunt Cui, he asked, "Aunt Cui, Xiaobai is gone." ”
"What?" Aunt Cui put down the account book and stood up.
"I just came out of her room, and there is still a lingering scent of drugs in her room, when did you see her last night?" Ye Xiaomu asked a little anxiously.
"She came to me last night, drank some wine with me and went back to her room to sleep, and I helped her in."
"In this way, it was you who came in after you left last night and took people away, I obviously sent someone to keep an eye on her, it seems that the other party is very familiar with this place, otherwise it would be impossible for no one to find out." Ye Xiaomu analyzed.
"I'm going to call all the people in the store." Aunt Cui replied.
Ye Xiaomu nodded, "Go ahead." ”
After a while, Aunt Cui gathered all the people in the backyard, Ye Xiaomu looked at the faces that he had seen for many days, and suddenly found that there was a man missing.
"Where is Xiao Song?" Ye Xiaomu asked the shopkeeper on the side.
The shopkeeper thought for a moment, "Oh, he? He said that his mother was sick, and that he would go home and ask me for leave last night. ”
"He walked alone?"
"Yes, but this kid still has a heart, and before leaving, he helped me push out the dirty water in the store and pour it out."
"Aunt Cui, do you know how to do it?" Ye Xiaomu looked at everyone with a cold expression all over his body.
The people in the store always thought that Ye Xiaomu came to observe from the head office, otherwise Aunt Cui would not have listened to Ye Xiaomu in everything, Ye Xiaomu was very approachable when she usually saw her, but her current demeanor made everyone feel indifferent and frightened.
"I'll send someone to Xiao Song to find it. I'll let you know if there's any news. Aunt Cui bowed her head and replied.
Aunt Cui called her own secret guard to arrange for someone to go to Xiao Song's house to find it, and Ye Xiaomu also called Mo Chen to arrange someone around her to go to a place near the store to help find Bai Yuerui's whereabouts.
Ye Xiaomu returned to the Water Venerable Hall and waited for the news, she had just recently broken through to the first layer of the Heaven Level, and she had the spiritual power of herb perception. She closed her eyes, emitted the spiritual power in her body, and gently injected it into the big tree in front of the house, and some fragments flashed through her mind.
Bai Yuerui was being hung in a water prison with an iron chain, fortunately, the edge of the water prison was covered with moss, otherwise Ye Xiaomu would not be able to see it, and Bai Yuerui was soaked in water except for her head. Every time the water in the prison would rise, she would drown, and so on and so on.
Ye Xiaomu retreated from the image, and his body was a little unbearable because of the amount of spiritual power consumed. After she replenished her spiritual power, she entered the phantom again, and then she saw a familiar face, this person was the personal girl next to Ye Yuehua. I saw that she scattered something into the dungeon, and walked out, and on the way you could faintly see the flag used by the troupe, the wind? Up. It's a pity that the flags are stacked together and can't be seen by her.
Ye Xiaomu retreated again, but after eating a few lotus seeds, his spiritual power was there, but he couldn't enter the phantom.
"How so?" Ye Xiaomu looked at his hands with some surprise and said.
The little elf Honghong said to her through her spiritual sense: "Little master, don't do it again, you just learned to use grass and trees to perceive so often, and if you continue to do so, it will only damage your divine sense." ”
Ye Xiaomu cried: "What to do, what to do, Xiaobai is still waiting for me." ”
"You let me out, I'll go find Shui Zun."
"Yes, Mochen can help me bring her back." Ye Xiaomu hurriedly released the elf and asked her to fly towards the palace.
At this time, the welcoming team also entered the Water Emperor City. The scene was very large, and the people of the water country gathered around the streets on both sides to watch. Ye Yuehua is dressed in brocade red makeup, python dark flower layer double silk gold silk large-sleeved shirt, the edge is embroidered with a mandarin duck pattern, the chest is buckled with a red gold inlaid ruby collar button, covered with a magenta double peacock embroidered cloud gold tassel Xia Xia, the open screen peacock has a tactful and docile state, as if to come to life, plum red satin embroidered into a double flower and bird pattern waist seal hanging down the cloud crane pin gold depiction silver skirt, the tail skirt is three feet long, gold wire edge. In the middle of the hair is wearing a mandarin duck with a joint pattern of beads, full of pond Jiao distracted, a pair of red gold mandarin ducks in the center hug left and right, and the pearl jade is the bottom. The already bewitching face was set off even more dazzling by red, and the whole outfit amazed the people watching through the thin red tent.
Ye Yuehua enjoyed the appreciation and envy of the people, and entered the palace of the water country all the way.
Because there was only one brother in the Baizhu family, the banquet was directly placed in the palace. The ministers of the DPRK and China were present to congratulate them.
Bai Li, the lord of the water country, saw that his younger brother did not go to greet him, and sat alone at the table and drank wine, looking at his red face, he was a little drunk. He summoned a eunuch and told him to fetch some decanting soup for his brother.
Mo Chen, who was sitting next to Baizhu, suddenly heard the call of the elf in his ears, so he stopped his movements, listened to her, the expression on his face darkened, and he looked at Baizhu with a complicated expression.
sighed, and the appearance of wanting to speak and stopping was just enough for Baizhu to see. He moved to Mochen's side and asked, "What?" I got married today, and you're not right here with a black face, right? Come, have a drink with me. After speaking, he picked up Mochen's wine glass and handed it to him, and he drank the wine in his hand first.
"I don't know if I should tell you something."
"If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go, when did you and I become so strange?" Baizhu patted Mochen on the shoulder and said.
"I said, don't be impulsive." Ink Dust whispered.
"Okay, let's talk about it." The soft voice of the atractylodes cooperation.
Mo Chen told him about Bai Yuerui's disappearance in his ear, Bai Zhu heard it, and the whole person was stunned, he swayed his body and wanted to leave, but was held down by Mo Chen.
At this time, the eunuch came over with the decanting soup, and without saying a word, Baizhu drank the soup, not thinking about what was in it at all.
After drinking the soup, Baizhu said to Mochen with a bitter face: "I have loved two women in my life, but why has the one I once loved changed, and I still want to hurt the one I love now?" You tell me? Am I unworthy of a lover? ”
"You've drunk too much, the bride is here, you go pick it up first." After Mo Chen finished speaking, Baizhu fell. When the others saw it, they all became nervous.
"Go, let's see, what's wrong with the prince." Bai Li looked at his younger brother and said to his subordinates a little distressed.
"Returning to the country, the prince is drunk." The accompanying imperial physician shouted at the Lord of the Wood Kingdom.
The ministers discussed one after another, "Return to the country, Yuehua is still waiting in front of the door, how to deal with it?" ”
Bai Li replied with a little headache: "Send the prince back to the room, and let someone finish the ceremony first instead of the prince." ”
Seeing that the eunuch who came over was about to help Mo Chen's white atractylodes, Mo Chen waved his hand and let people leave. "I'll come, I'm not interested in watching this ceremony."
Without waiting for anyone to respond, Mo Chen helped Baizhu to leave the banquet and walked to Baizhu's dormitory in the palace.
When there was no one around, Mo Chen let go of Baizhu and said, "Okay, don't pretend." ”
Bai Shu squinted, peeked around, and then stood up straight, "Thank you just now, I already knew that I couldn't hide this from you." ”
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go."
