Chun Yuyan's sudden arrival made Qing Ling vaguely aware that something was about to happen.

Sure enough, after dinner that day, Mu Chen did not go to Qingling's house to drink tea and chat with her as usual, but directly locked up in his own room to discuss matters with Yan and the others.

Qing Ling leaned alone by the window, looking at the dimming sky outside the house.

On the blue night hung a few light clouds that were almost condensed, like the shawl of a lady thrown on the blue waves. A crescent moon bends in the sky, as bright as a silver hook, and the strings are sharp.

On weekdays, due to all kinds of trivial matters, and Mu Chen still needs several hours a day to refine the Red Soul Bead, the time when the two of them can sit down and talk on their knees is mostly concentrated in this quiet time after dinner.

Mu Chen was quiet and didn't talk much, most of the time, it was Qing Ling who was talking alone, he either listened with a smile, or made a cup of fragrant tea and held it in her hand. Sometimes, Mu Chen had to deal with some urgent secret letters, Qingling sat on the side, reading the jade slip that Xian Xian gave her, occasionally communicating with each other, raising the prime minister to glance at each other, Lang smiled and felt very satisfied.

Qing Ling likes such days very much, and even feels that even if he continues to live like this for the rest of his life, he has no regrets.

But it's time to come, and it's going to come after all.

Maybe Chun Yuyan is right, Mu Chen is very different from himself in many ways, the way he has been taught to behave since he was a child, and the ideals and ambitions he wants to achieve in the future are all very different. Master has always wanted her to be a pure cultivator who does not care about the world and is isolated from the world, and lives in Chongwu Mountain for a lifetime without worry. But now, she is bent on taking a completely different path......

There was a slight noise in the courtyard.

Qing Ling followed the prestige, and saw more than 20 black-clothed masters standing in order, bowing and saluting in unison towards the east eaves, and then turned around and jumped out of the courtyard wall, agile and silent.

She had bumped into these men on certain nights, and had heard Sun call them "dead soldiers." She had always thought that they were just like Mu Chen's secret guards, the attendants who kept him safe.

Qing Ling stood stunned for a moment, then pushed the door and walked out.

Mu Chen was walking from under the corridor, wearing a black night robe, with long hair and delicate eyebrows. Xun beside him was also dressed in the same way, and when he saw Qing Ling, he immediately bowed slightly and disappeared to the side.

Mu Chen stood still in front of Qing Ling, "I have something to do tonight and need to go out." You stay here, don't go anywhere. ”

Qing Ling shook his head and looked at Mu Chen earnestly, "No." I don't care what you're going to do, I'm going with you! ”

Mu Chen raised his hand to caress the broken hair on Qing Ling's sideburns, and said softly: "This time the matter is a bit dangerous, if you go, I will be distracted." Stay here, I'll go and come back. ”

He has always behaved elegantly and rigorously, even if he is alone with Qingling, he deliberately maintains the distance required by etiquette, and when the love is strong, he only holds hands and touches his hair. Every time he approached, Qing Ling's heart beat wildly, and his body went soft, as if floating in the clouds.

And at this moment, her body stiffened, and she broke free sideways and said: "Don't treat me as a child, and don't treat me as a young lady of a noble family!" I don't know how to grow flowers and plants, and I don't like to be raised like flowers. ”

She looked up at Mu Chen with a resolute gaze, "If you dislike me for being useless, let me leave immediately." Otherwise, let me really stay by your side, fight side by side with you, not hide behind you. ”

Mu Chen stared at Qing Ling for a long time, the emotions in his eyes were surging, and finally sighed abruptly, "You girl......"

Qingling usually dislikes Mu Chen calling her "little girl" and "little girl", and now it is even more intolerable, and she wants to open her mouth to refute it, but Mu Chen grabbed her shoulders and gently hugged her into her arms.

"I understand your intentions." He whispered in her ear, "But tonight's ...... It's really not for you. ”

Qing Ling moved his lips, only to feel that his nose was full of Lan Zhi's fragrance, and in addition to his warm breath, there was a rapid and powerful heartbeat.

Mu Chen hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Tonight...... I designed to capture Mu Han. It matters, if you go with you, if someone finds out your identity, you will fall short. ”

Qing Ling looked up in amazement, "Mu Han? Did he come to Mist Watch? How are you going to catch him? ”

Mu Han himself is not to be afraid, but those under him are all elite and should not be underestimated.

Mu Chen said: "Don't worry, I have my own plan." Now that my strength has recovered, it is not difficult to deal with him. ”

Qing Ling knew that Mu Chen would never explain in detail when he spoke, and he understood that it would be futile to ask any further questions. Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to add: "This matter, I will explain it to you carefully when I come back." ”

Mu Chen let go of Qing Ling, turned his head and instructed Xun who was hidden in the shadows: "You stay here and take charge of answering." Be sure to take care of her. ”

Xun said yes.

Qing Ling wanted to say something more, but Mu Chen cut her off one step earlier, "Remember my words." Wait for me here. ”

After Mu Chen left, Qing Ling was restless, and tried to extract some words from Xun's mouth several times, but all of them were in vain.

Late at night, she lay on the couch, holding the purple jade ring strung with silk threads and hanging around her neck, and her thoughts were full of thoughts and could not be calm.

Ever since I put the ring made of this dream stone on my body, I have been dreaming every night.

However, the dream was too beautiful, and the moment I woke up, I felt empty.

The first taste of the sweetness of love, I just look forward to being able to accompany my lover day and night, and live and live together. She is not afraid of being displaced, she is not afraid of dangers, she is afraid, she is afraid, and she will never be able to enter the world to which Mu Chen belongs.........

***

The next day, I waited all day, but there was still no news.

Qingling also lost the interest in cooking, and sat under the porch with his knees crossed, staring at the courtyard door.

Xun, who was guarding the side, watched for a long time, and couldn't help but persuade: "Your Highness is cautious, and the entry and exit will only be at night, so Miss should go back to the house and wait first." ”

Qing Ling remained silent, but secretly made up her mind in her heart.

in case of

What if something happens.........

She fought with her life to enter Lingxiao City!

All the people who have hurt Mu Chen, whether it is his father or brother, she will not let it go!

In the middle of the night, Qing Ling was alarmed by a movement outside the house, and immediately got up from the couch, hurriedly put on his clothes, and happened to bump into Mu Chen, who raised his hand and knocked on the door.

In the moonlight, he was still wearing the night black clothes of the day before, and the few strands of long hair hanging down on his forehead were slightly messy, and the moment he saw Qing Ling, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

Qing Ling pounced on him regardless of it, his arm wrapped around his waist, and his heart was tumbling with relieved surprise.

Mu Chen hugged the woman in his arms, his fingers ran over her soft and smooth hair, feeling the softness and warmth of her body, and his heart was also filled with all kinds of complex and chaotic emotions.

Qing Ling raised his head, "Did you catch Mu Han?" ”

Mu Chen made a booing gesture, nodded, and lowered his voice, "Yan has taken him to the firewood room." ”

Qing Ling didn't expect to catch Mu Han so easily, and was curious, "How did you catch him?" Aren't there a lot of janissaries around that kid? All of them are fierce and vicious......"

Mu Chen lowered his eyes slightly, and did not answer positively, but smiled: "Didn't you underestimate them?" ”

Qing Ling subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the pillar where Xun often stood, only to find that there were four or five black-clothed people standing there, and when they saw him looking over, they all immediately bowed and saluted.

Oh, my God!

Qing Ling let out a secret sigh, and the hand around Mu Chen's waist suddenly let go, and turned around with a blush on his face.

In the past, Mu Chen held her hand and touched her hair, but at most she was watched by Xun alone. This time, she took the initiative to give her arms warmly, and was seen by a group of people!

Isn't it...... What a loss?

Mu Chen unconsciously raised the corners of his lips and said to Qing Ling, "I still have some things to deal with, and I have to go out for a while." If you want to go to Yan, remember to change your appearance and voice, and don't let Mu Han see through your identity. ”

She was a curious person after all, and she didn't let her know anything at all, which only made her more suspicious......

Qing Ling really nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, with his cultivation, he will never be able to see through my illusion!" ”

After Mu Chen left, she immediately went back to the house, turned over a coarse cloth men's clothes and changed into them, and then changed into a man's appearance, and went to the firewood room behind the courtyard to see Mu Han who was arrested.

There were three people guarding the firewood room. Two of them covered their faces with black scarves, and the other one had a beard and a low stool, and his posture was very strong and rude.

The rude man saw Qing Ling push the door in, stood up straight, and muttered, "Why are you here?" ”

Qing Ling stretched his neck and cast a glance at Mu Han, who was tied up and curled up at an angle, and saw that although he was sealed by strips of cloth, his charming peach blossom eyes were full of silent angry words, and he looked at him with hatred.

Qing Ling remembered his ruthlessness in killing himself in Ganyuan, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of happiness in his heart. I knew that it would be so easy to catch him, and I should have done it when I came out of Chongwu!

The rude man pulled Qing Ling outside the house and set up a ban, "This is not the place for you, go back quickly." ”

Qingling was unwilling to say: "Why can't I stay? Mu Chen said I could come to you. ”

The man's eyes shimmered slightly, and he was silent for a moment.

"Hey, you recognize me?" He touched his beard exaggeratedly, and his face seemed to be a little frustrated, "I'm still thinking, with my cultivation, no one in this courtyard can see through my illusion except Mu Chen." ”

Qing Ling sneered, "I didn't see through it, but the only person in this courtyard who can talk to me in that tone is you Chun Yuyan, except for Mu Chen." ”

Chun Yuyan paused and said: "Mistake, mistake!" ”

Qing Ling glanced towards the firewood room, "How did you catch him?" Also, what are your plans for bringing him in? ”

If she was going to beat him up, she wouldn't mind doing something......

Chun Yuyan lowered his head and rolled up his sleeves, "Catch him...... It took a bit of effort......"

He looked up and smiled flatteringly, "We're all tired tonight. Why don't you take pity on us, go to the kitchen and make some supper or something, and after a while, Mu Chen will come back and everyone will drink and chat? ”

Qing Ling heard the prevarication in Yan's words, and reluctantly wanted to ask a few more questions, but remembering Mu Chen, who was in a hurry just now, hesitated for a moment, and decided to go to the kitchen to prepare something first.

She lit the lamp and candle in the kitchen, and was bending down to check the firewood in the stove, when she suddenly felt someone behind her quickly approaching, and was about to turn around to check in shock, but someone covered her mouth.
