495: The person who can't do without him is himself
It seemed that seeing that Mu Xue was not very happy, Fei Qi smiled and said: "The princess doesn't have to worry, the prince explained when he went out, according to the itinerary, King Chen will be able to go to the capital today, so the prince may have to come back very late." ”
Nangong Chen, a great hero, returned to the capital.
Naturally, a banquet was to be held in the palace to catch the wind.
Mu Xue took a deep breath, after last night's events, her heart seemed to be pressed by a heavy stone, sullen and unhappy.
Nangong came back late, and the night was beyond Mu Xue's imagination.
It was almost when she was already on the bed, and was about to fall asleep, that the man returned.
And I didn't come back on my own...
When Nangong Li was carried back, Mu Xue was nesting on the bed, looking at the moonlight leaking in by the window in a daze, she had a strong feeling in her heart, she felt that he was hiding from herself.
Although this feeling is really unfounded.
But she's stubborn about it.
Or did he already know that Qianchen might be back in a year, so he would be like this?
Women always like to be cranky.
The pregnant woman's mind is even more delicate and scary.
"Princess, princess, the princess is back..."
seemed to know what Mu Xue was waiting for, and when he saw someone coming back, Yunzhi came in happily to report.
"Hmm."
Mu Xue pretended to be indifferent, and it seemed that she didn't want to hear from that person.
"But the princess, the prince drank too much, and Jiang Ci is holding the prince..."
In Mu Xue's memory, he Nangong had only been drunk once, that is, at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet at the end of last year, and the man drank too much.
That time it was because of the dust.
So what is he doing this time for??
Mu Xue didn't have time to think about it, because Mu Xue had already heard the movement outside, and it must have been Jiang Ci who had already left Nangong with him.
"Make the low couch over there, and let the prince sleep over there..."
Mu Xue didn't really want to sleep with a drunk, unconscious person.
It's not that the smell of wine is very strong, but she's pregnant, and she's afraid that he'll run into it when he's drunk, and I'm afraid that he wants to do something with the strength of the wine, so it's better to be on the safe side or let people sleep on the chaise longue over there.
After putting the drunken Nangong Li on the low couch, Jiang Ci replied to Mu Xue.
"Princess, there is a night banquet in the palace, the prince is happy today, he drank two more sips of wine, don't worry."
He didn't drink because he was happy.
It's obviously depressed, and there's nowhere to vent, so I drink.
It was originally a child's childish behavior to drink to kill sorrows.
It seemed that he saw Mu Xue's unhappiness, and Jiang Ci said this.
Mu Xue pursed her lips and waved at them a little impatiently.
"Go down, all of you."
People who have drunk alcohol always feel thirsty and want to drink water, and Mu Xue heard him muttering to drink water when he lay down.
She had no choice but to get up with a big stomach and pour him water to drink.
Nangong Li's wine is better than Mu Xue's.
If the conditions are met, there will be no trouble.
It's not like Mu Xue who drinks too much and says this and that, and moves his hands and feet.
Seeing that his face was slightly red and he slept peacefully, Mu Xue was relieved and climbed into bed.
just slept until midnight, and Mu Xue seemed to feel a drunken person crawling into her bed, and then she put a warm palm on her waist, and she heard him mutter: "Why do you leave me alone..."
She could also feel the smell of wine pouring out of his ears.
But this sentence made her very satisfied.
She felt as if he was coquettish to herself.
It seems to be steady...
He soon fell asleep again, a vague smile on his lips.
Originally, the emperor saw that Nangong had drunk too much, and he was going to leave people in the palace for one night, but he insisted on coming back.
Nangong was a little strange away from this person.
He always hopes that Mu Xue will rely more on him, hoping to the point where he can't do without him.
But the person who has always been inseparable from him is himself.
Although Nangong Li was hungover, he still woke up when the sky was slightly bright.
His eyes were a little dry, and there were two red blood streaks under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept enough.
There is also a warm person in his arms, and his long hair is curled around his wrists, showing off his restraints.
He still had some residual sleepiness, and he fell asleep against her back.
When Mu Xue woke up for breakfast, Nangong Li also followed behind and got up.
"Xiao Xue'er, you use it first, Ah Li is full of wine, go wash first."
Mu Xue nodded, indicating that she knew.
She ate breakfast slowly, as if waiting for him.
But Jiang Ci quickly replied, saying that the emperor had a decree to summon the prince into the palace, and the prince would not come back at noon.
Mu Xue pinched the chopsticks' fingers tightened, if yesterday it was just a conjecture without a shadow, today she is very sure that this person is hiding from herself.
But she really didn't understand why this was....
"Hasn't Ah Li received a lot of shops recently, and brought the title deed and key ledger to the concubine?"
"It's in the study, princess, it's okay for you to check and check, the prince has been too busy recently, and he doesn't have time to sort these out."
Mu Xue has a sense of keeping herself busy, so that she won't think about those messy things.
The title deed and the key are respectively contained in two small boxes, and there are several stacks of ledgers on the side.
Mu Xue looked at the account book roughly, and felt that this account book was really cumbersome and verbose.
Pursing her lips, she thought about it, and asked Ye Feibai to transcribe the account book of the silver village into a blank template, so that these restaurants and shops could re-follow her account book, which was much more concise and convenient than these.
Mu Xue looked at the account book, counted the title deeds and keys, and locked these things into his small vault.
The key to this treasury has never been asked by Nangong since it was handed over to Mu Xue, but occasionally when he needs money, he just talks to Mu Xue.
In fact, this is also a major manifestation of Nangong Li's trust in Mu Xue.
If you keep yourself busy, time flies.
Before you know it, it's noon.
Even without that man, Mu Xue obediently eats, takes a nap obediently, drinks water when she is thirsty, and eats snacks when she is hungry.
When he woke up, he set up the embroidery frame and began to embroider the unfinished winged bird.
Simple...
Plenum...
I didn't ask the man what the hell he was doing.
Nangong Li came back from Li Mingze's mansion, and when he came back to his palace, he didn't look very good.
Mu Xue was threading needles and threads in the sunlight by the window, and when she saw him coming back, she asked as if nothing had happened: "You promised me, tell me about Yunzhi in the past two days, do you have any clues?" ”
In the past two days, Yunzhi served Mu Xue as usual, and Mu Xue did not show anything abnormal.
"Well, I'm here to tell you about it."
Nangong Li deliberately closed the rail door before coming over, as if he was afraid that someone would overhear.
Mu Xue continued the movements on her hands, and when she heard this, she nodded and said, "You say, I want to know what happened to Yunzhi." ”
"Yunzhi's deed of sale is on you."
"It's no longer here, when Yunzhi came to the palace with me, I had already returned it to her."
Yunzhi has always been free during his time in the palace.
"Hmm, then Yunzhi has an older brother, do you know?"
Mu Xue was stunned, she really didn't know this.
"I don't know, what's wrong?"
"Yunzhi's brother is going to get married, there is no silver, Yunzhi's family sold Yunzhi privately to Qian Yuanwai as a little wife, they don't know that Yunzhi came to my palace with you, this time they went to the general's mansion to ransom people, and Zhao Xiangning took it to the mansion, so Yunzhi has no choice."
In the past, Mu Xue rarely heard Yunzhi mention her family.
She thought she was an orphan.
For there are too many examples of infant girls to be discarded in ancient times.
But with such a family, Mu Xue feels that it is better to have nothing.
My brother was short of money when he married his relatives, so he remembered this daughter who was still a slave in his house.
Mu Xue felt cold when she thought about it.
It's cold and a little sad at the same time.
She sighed and asked him: "But there is a lack of money, and things that can be solved with money are not called things, tomorrow I will give Yunzhi a sum of money and let her solve this matter by herself, what do you think?" ”
Mu Xue originally planned to spend money to settle such a thing for Yunzhi.
But Nangong Li shook his head.
"No, there's a better way to get away from me."
Mu Xue had always known that he had a lot of ideas.
"I only have one request, Yunzhi's future marriage will be decided by herself, but she can't let an old man spoil it at her current age, you can do the rest."
"Well, this is nature."
Turkey Tail is still very useful.
A few days ago, he sent someone to find the stable woman who delivered Mu Xue at the beginning, and the people below said that the person had already entered the ground last year.
Now that he is in the ground, there is no longer any possibility of testifying.
But Mu Xue wants to clean up Zhao Xiangning again, and this Yunzhi is the best opportunity.
A beautiful anti-plot had already been formed in Nangong Li's mind.
Yunzhi's matter has a solution, and Mu Xue's heart is also relaxed.
Facing the slanting sunlight, she was embroidering the wings of the winged bird with gold thread.
"I counted the title deeds and keys this morning, and locked them in the storeroom, so that if you want to see them, you can see them yourself."
Knowing one's own situation and that of the enemy.
Nangong knew a long time ago what industries Nangong Xun's subordinates were, so even if he didn't look at it, he could know a rough idea.
He took two steps forward and stopped beside Mu Xue.
"You don't have to look at those things, how can you look good with Xiao Xue'er,"
Nangong Li's love words have now reached the point where they will come when they open their mouths.
"The third brother has made a great contribution, the fifth brother will get married soon, and your birthday is still a few days away, these several happy events come together, the whole world celebrates, listen to Jiang Ci said, yesterday Prince Duan and Prince Bao had something to say to appease the harem, and chase those late concubines, my father has already agreed."
