Chapter 25: Mu Lingxi is recruited
Chen Xiao looked at it, lowered his head and whispered a few words to a few servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion, stepped forward, dragged the girl out of the bucket, pulled out the quick knife on Luan Pu'an's waist, and the knife fell in his hand, the girl's head rolled on the ground, and the blood spurting out of the cavity splashed Chen Xiao's face. Chen Xiao threw the girl's body on the ground, picked up the water in the bucket to wash off the blood stains on his face, wiped it clean with the towel next to him, wrapped the girl's head in the towel, said "goodbye" to the frightened Liu's mother, and took the person away.
"Kill...... Kill...... Kill! I don't know how long it took for Liu's mother, who was sitting on the ground, to react, looking at the blood in the hut, and screaming heartbreakingly.
Mu Lingxi returned to the station by the river with twenty soldiers, the soldiers were scattered in three tents, Mu Lingxi and two guards lived alone in a tent, the table in front of him was filled with drinking water just from the river, the grass pulled by the river just now, and the wild fruits collected from the surrounding area, Mu Lingxi sat at the table, quietly looking at the accompanying military doctor who carefully inspected the items in front of him, and the candles on the side burned quietly.
"Your Highness, forgive the ministers for their incompetence, there is nothing wrong with these things." The accompanying military doctor examined it for a long time and did not see any problems.
Mu Lingxi thought about it for a while and called the guards: "Go catch three rabbits."
Rabbits can be seen everywhere in the wild, and in less than a cup of tea, the guards brought in three rabbits that are jumping around. Mu Lingxi ordered someone to apply water to one rabbit, and let the other two rabbits eat grass and wild fruits respectively. Mu Lingxi watched the guards finish all this, and let the guards leave, leaving only the accompanying military doctor.
"Mother Liu?" Early in the morning, Xu's mother took Qiu Tang to Caifeng Lou to play Pai Gow, entered the house, and saw Liuyun come out to greet her, so she asked casually.
"Mom, she was a little frightened a few days ago, and she hasn't gotten out of bed for two or three days, so she invited the doctor from the Huichun Hall to get an injection, and it was only slightly better last night, Mother Xu, you sit down slightly, I'll call my mother to come." Liuyun Wanfu said.
"Qiu Tang, come with me and your sister Liuyun to see your mother Liu." Mother Xu stopped Liuyun and said.
"Yes." Qiu Tang lowered his eyes and followed Mother Xu towards Mother Liu's room.
"Hello Mama Liu." Qiu Tang entered the house Wanfu Road.
"Hurry up. This kid can't forget the etiquette at any time, no wonder it's so painful. Mother Liu half-leaned on the bed, smiling with crooked eyebrows, "Liuyun, move chairs for your mother Xu and sister Qiutang." ”
"What's wrong with you? I heard Liuyun say that he was scared?" Mother Xu sat down and asked.
"Alas......" Mother Liu talked softly, and told Luan Pu'an how he led people to break into Caifeng Tower, and how he killed people.
Qiu Tang stood behind Xu's mother and listened in horror. How could she not know, if she hadn't deliberately learned Liuyun's makeup, how could she have deceived Chen Xiao. I vaguely felt that Chen Xiao was not good, but I didn't expect Chen Xiao to really come to ask for his life. Listening to Liu's mother say that when Chen Xiao raised the knife and fell without hesitation, Qiu Tang's blood was cold. Later, Mother Xu and Mother Liu talked about something, but she didn't know anything.
"Oops, how did I forget that Qiu Tang is still here, look at this little face so white, frightened, right? Clouds? Liuyun, take your sister Qiutang out for a walk, drink some hot tea, and bring her some snacks. Mother Liu inadvertently looked up and noticed Qiu Tang's strange appearance, and hurriedly ordered someone to take her out.
"Yes, thank you Mama Liu." Qiu Tang forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and after a little blessing, he followed Liuyun out of the house.
"Are you feeling better?" Seeing that Qiu Tang drank some hot water, his face gradually became bloody, and Liuyun took Qiu Tang's cold little hand and asked.
"Thank you, Sister Liuyun, I'm much better." Qiu Tang reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"You have something to eat, I'll go and call a few more sisters down, let's push pai gow and relax." Liuyun touched Qiu Tang's hair lovingly and smiled.
"Thank you, Sister Liuyun." Qiu Tang wanted to get up and thank him, but was pressed back into the chair by Liuyun.
"You sit, I'll be back in a moment." After speaking, Liuyun ran upstairs with a smoke.
After a few rounds of cards, Qiu Tang's heart became quieter and quieter. About an hour, there was a bunch of bracelets and hairpins in front of Qiu Tang.
"It seems that our Qiu Tang has good luck!" Mother Xu walked out of the house, saw the jewelry in front of Qiu Tang, clapped her hands and smiled.
"Ma'am." Qiu Tang hurriedly got up and said, "Madame has won the award, and my sisters let me." ”
"Okay, it's time to go back, let's go to the house and say hello to Mother Liu." Mother Xu smiled.
"Yes." Qiu Tang replied with a slight blessing and walked towards Liu's mother's house.
On the way back to Linglong Pavilion, Qiu Tang walked slowly behind Xu's mother, slowly thinking in his heart: The death of the girl in Caifenglou has drawn an end to her Chen Nianqi's escape, if nothing else, there will be no one from the government to find the daughter of the Chen family. At the same time, the girl's death also made Qiu Tang faintly understand that the Chen family must have been framed at the beginning, and Chen Xiao was the ghost hidden in the Chen family. But what is all this for, Qiu Tang can't figure it out, and now she understands why she wants to touch the sky, maybe not only to return to the place where she lived as a child, but also the idea of wanting to figure everything out for many years in her heart. But she knows that now she wants to figure out everything back then, it is simply a fantasy, and she has to wait for the right time and place that her father often said.
"Sir." Yan'er carried the lantern and walked into Yang Huaigui's calligraphy.
"How?" Yang Huaigui put down the book and looked at Yan'er with a smile.
Yan'er didn't care about Yang Huaigui's gaze, instead of using the green bamboo to improve her status, it would be better to climb into Yang Huaigui's bed one day, give him a son, and be the master herself. Thinking of this, Yan'er smiled slightly and said, "Madame has been getting better these days, and she has begun to eat and drink water normally." Just ......"
"Just what?" Yang Huaigui frowned.
"It's just that every night, there always seems to be someone outside the window who wants to talk to Madame."
"Come on, you ...... like this" Yang Huaigui whispered to Yan'er, "Understood?"
"Don't worry, sir." Yan'er Wanfu replied.
"Rest assured, rest assured." Yang Huaigui took the opportunity to touch Yan'er's slightly upturned buttocks.
"Your Highness." The guards entered Mu Lingxi's tent, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" ”
Mu Lingxi was lying on the ground, his hands clenched into fists, the sky was full of big men, and his body was rubbing on the ground uncontrollably. The guard's voice alarmed the military doctor outside the tent, and the military doctor only glanced at it and exclaimed, "Not good! Grab the rope! ”
"Presumptuous!" The guard scolded the military doctor, "This is His Royal Highness King Xiang, what are you going to do!" ”
"Quick, get the rope, Your Highness has been whipped by hell!"
Mu Lingxi, who had extraordinary martial arts, was barely able to get close to three or five guards together, and the military doctor took the opportunity to trap Mu Lingxi's hands, and Mu Lingxi let out a strange roar from the depths of his throat. Mu Lingxi's struggle and hideous expression made the guards tremble, and they didn't know what to do.
"What are you doing?" The medic suddenly turned his head and stared at one of the guards next to him. I saw that the guard was obliviously scratching at his bare skin.
"Hold him down! Bundle it up! The military doctor secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly ordered someone to take the rope, but all the guards present were like ghosts, and they dodged one after another, and did not dare to come forward.
"If you untie me, aren't you afraid that your master will scold you?" Lu Zhu gently rubbed his hands and feet, which were tied up with some edema, and looked at Yan'er coldly.
"What do you say, madam, the lord is also your lord, it was ordered by the lord, saying that the lady is pregnant after all, and it is not a matter to always tie it up, spread it out, and make people laugh." Yan'er put the untied rope into the cabinet and said in a salty and nonchalant manner.
"Hmph." Lu Zhu squeezed out a breath from his nose, glanced at Yan'er, as if thinking of something, Lu Zhu changed his comfortable posture, half leaned on the head of the bed and said, "Yan'er, I am the master, you are a servant, do you know?"
"Huh," Yan'er snorted, "you really take yourself seriously." I call you Madame, that's for the sake of the lord's face, just you? You're worthy of it, too?" Yan'er shook her hand and left the house.
Seeing Yan'er being squeezed away by herself, Luzhu hurriedly stood up slowly on the edge of the bed, her swollen legs were a little inconvenient to move, she carefully rubbed to the window, held the table and sat down slowly, through the window, Luzhu saw the late autumn back garden outside the window, and the flowers withered. This sitting is a day, watching the sun set in the west and the moon rises in the east.
"Still sitting? You're not waiting for someone, are you? Yan'er suddenly pushed the door in, startling Luzhu.
"I'm hungry, waiting for food." Looking at Yan'er's arrogance, Lu Zhu forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and assumed the posture of a lady.
"Bring it in." Brought in, the four boys, carrying two food boxes into the house, Yan'er opened the food box, put a plate of dishes on the table, "Eat." The master said, if you don't make noise or make trouble, and give him a son with peace of mind, he won't pursue the previous matter. ”
"Alright, let's put down the food and go out." Lu Zhu picked up the dishes and chopsticks and said coldly.
"Humph!" Yan'er slammed the door with someone, "I really take myself as the master!" ”。
About a stick of incense, the green bamboo is eaten. After lying in bed for so many days, drinking gruel and eating steamed buns, she has figured out one thing, that is, as long as she lives, she is stronger than anything else. So she began to pretend to be well-behaved, and finally waited for the day when she untied the ropes.
"Someone." Wiping the corners of his mouth, Green Bamboo beckoned the servant waiting at the door, "Take all this." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
It feels good to be the master. There are maids and servants serving with tea and water, delicious and delicious drinks, beautiful clothes to wear, and jewels and gems, Luzhu touched his stomach and muttered to himself: "Child, it is really the right time for you to come, and it is really not the right time."
"What's wrong with Your Highness?" After getting the news, General Long and Hu hurried to the riverside station, and met the military doctor who had just come out of the tent.
"Alas!" The military doctor sighed deeply, "Your Highness somehow, I also got it. ”
"Then ...... now" Before General Long finished speaking, he heard Mu Lingxi's low roar from the tent.
"Your Highness still has a trace of consciousness at present, and you can still try to control yourself not to scratch your skin, but it is already the end of the crossbow, if you can't survive tonight, Your Highness's appearance may not be able to be saved......"
