The next day, I slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up, lazy and unenergetic, drank some water, knocked on Muyang's door, he opened the door, as if he had been busy all morning. I looked over his shoulder at the table in the room, with a few pieces of paper spread out on it, presumably as if he was jotting down the names of some officials or something.

"Just up?" Muyang asked.

"Yes. What are you up to? I asked.

"Do you want to come in and see?"

"Forget it, if I see something bad, I won't be able to wash it away."

Mu Yang raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, ignoring my ridicule, and said, "If you don't look at it, forget it, don't you eat something?" ”

I sighed, leaned against the door frame and said, "No appetite, ready to go out for a walk." ”

"I'll go with you."

"Don't worry, I won't run, I'll give you all my money, I'll go out again, okay?"

"Who said you were afraid that you would run away? Can't I go out and have fun? ”

I looked at Mu Yang, who had cunning written on his face, and said, "Okay, if you've been here before, take me around." ”

The two of them took to the street. Muyang did come here, but this time his destination was only Xuzhou, and he was able to introduce me to a lot of things in Jeju, such as which noodles are delicious and which beef is fresh......

Later, I felt bored, and my eyes fell on the jewelry shop on the street.

"Want to buy?" Muyang asked.

"I want to buy it for my wife and another maid."

The two entered the shop like this, and the shopkeeper came up enthusiastically and said, "Childe is buying jewelry for his wife, right?" We're ...... here."

"I'm not his wife." I interrupted.

"Oh, look at my clumsy eyes, Childe, can you pick out a few pieces of jewelry for Miss?"

I glanced at Muyang, he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Let her pick it herself, I don't understand this." ”

The shopkeeper took a step back and introduced me one by one. I knew that Madame liked emerald and Ah Yan liked white, so I picked out two bracelets that I thought were not too expensive, and took them in my hand and looked at them carefully.

"Why don't you wear jewelry yourself?" Mu Yang suddenly asked.

"Why should I wear it? troublesome, and it's easy to hurt yourself when you get in hand. ”

Muyang looked at the bracelet in my hand, as if thinking about something, but said: "Feel free, I'll take care of these, and if you want to buy it, I'll pay for it like I, if you don't buy your own share, it's just to save me money." ”

I looked at him and asked, "Can you buy these for me?" ”

"Why not? It's not expensive anyway. ”

I smiled instantly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely tell my wife good things about you when I go back." ”

Muyang said that if you play for two more days, you will really play for two whole days, which makes me a little happy. I thought that Muyang would take me to play for a morning at most, and then urged me to leave quickly. I didn't expect that in the past two days, I have been running all over the nearby places I want to go, and I have some fancy incense powder for Mrs., and he has wrapped it up, so I thought he was trying to please Mrs. Chang, and I didn't refuse.

Finally, on the way back, I left Jeju, and I was still a little reluctant to give up, and it was not worth having a chance to come again in the future.

It's just that Muyang always looked like he wanted to speak and stopped along the way, and I saw that he seemed to be very hesitant, so he urged: "Hey, if you have anything to say, just say it quickly, don't go to the capital yet, you will suffocate first." ”

Muyang glanced at me, exhaled and said, "You are very weird. ”

I pondered for a while and asked, "You've been holding back for so long, and you want to say this?" ”

"You're weird, you don't want anything for yourself, but you don't forget to bring something good to the people you know."

"I just don't want jewelry, it's not that I don't want money, I don't want life, what do you mean I don't want it?"

"No, it's different, even if it's you...... Even if you lose your life, you may remember to be nice to your wife before you die. ”

"That's just my job. If I am not good to my wife, who will be good to me? ”

Mu Yang swallowed, as if he wanted to speak and stopped.

"If you want to ask, just ask, anyway, you also heard Xuan Lin say, I won't trust others easily, and I won't tell the truth easily."

"Then I don't ask. I want to hear the truth. ”

"I'm such a small character, what does it matter if I don't tell the truth or not."

"The higher the status, the more lies they tell, and the smaller the role, the more precious the truth is told."

I looked at Muyang, he just stared ahead, motionless.

"I'm used to telling lies."

Muyang didn't talk again, and the two fell silent.

In the evening, we went to a very small inn to rest, but we didn't expect that there was no empty room here, and the shopkeeper said embarrassedly: "We only have one room left here, and there are two beds in it. ”

Muyang looked at me and asked, "Do you mind?" ”

"I don't care, it's not like I haven't slept in the same room with a man before." I waved my hand, and Muyang paid the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper took us upstairs.

"Before you said that, when you were a killer?"

"Otherwise, what else do I have before?" I sighed and said, "Actually, I still miss the days a little, although almost every day was spent in blood, and the killers would have some fun. At that time, because he could die at any time, he took life and death very lightly, and had fun every day, and even molested women from good families. ”

"Isn't that good now?"

"In the past, and now, they all have their own fun."

I put my baggage away, yawned, and said, "I'll wash and sleep first." ”

"I should be able to get to the capital tomorrow night. I went down and asked the shopkeeper to bring water. ”

Not long after Muyang went downstairs, the hot water was delivered, I quickly took a bath, stretched my body, came out to dry the water, changed my clothes, slowly wiped my hair, opened the door, glanced downstairs, and called Muyang to come up.

The shopkeeper and the man quickly changed the water, and when my hair was almost dry, I fell down on the bed, listened to the sound of water behind the screen, and gradually fell asleep.

The next day, I went on the road and finally arrived at the gate of Changfu at the time of unitary.

"Thank you for taking care of me, and the jewelry you paid for, I will tell Madame." I said.

"It doesn't matter, I don't think you have much silver on you."

"Of course there aren't many, just a few silver tickets."

Mu Yang's face stiffened for a moment, and soon returned to normal, and said, "It doesn't matter, just think of me doing something good." ”

After that, Muyang left. The guards took the horse, and I entered the house, but I didn't come back for dozens of days, and now I feel a little strange.

I walked to Madame's room, where Madame was grinding. "Madame, I'm back."

Madame raised her head and said with a smile: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back......" Ah Yan seemed to be very excited on the side, secretly wiped her eyes, and said, "I thought you were ...... You can't come back......"

I took out the bracelet and incense powder from the baggage, gave them to Mrs. and Ah Yan, and said to Mrs. "These things were bought by Muyang, the left attendant of the household department, and said that it was a little heart for Mrs. ”

"Let him bother, invite him to sit in the house another day."

After a while, the lady asked, "You have worked hard these days, and the lord has suppressed your identity, if there is anything, just tell me." ”

"Thank you Lord and Madame, otherwise my life will not be saved." I knelt down, and my wife quickly pulled me up and said, "We treat you as a daughter, and it is our duty to save you, if the master doesn't save you, I'm not happy." ”

"No, it's love to save me, it's my duty not to save me, who will put a killer in the house?"

"Yuxing, you remember, you are no longer a killer, you are just a maid in our Changfu, and you have long been out of touch with those murders and arsons, don't say that you are a killer anymore."

"Okay."

I stood up, and Madame sighed and said, "Xuan Lin has also been here a few times, and he said that Muyang will bring you back." I'm curious about who Muyang is, after all, I haven't heard the master mention it. ”

"The lord is the cabinet, Muyang is an official of the household department, it's normal that I haven't heard of it, and Muyang has only recently been promoted by the emperor, maybe the lord doesn't know it."

After a few more words, I said that I was tired, and went back to the house to fetch water and take a bath and sleep. Before going to bed, I touched the stone chips and knives under the pillow, and they were still there, so I slept peacefully.
