Chapter Seventy-Four: A Grain of Millet in the Vicissitudes of the Sea

The woman slowly helped Er Zhuyan into the attic, and when she saw that she was covered with scars, she thought that she must have been chased by the enemy. Suddenly, I saw a group of officers and soldiers coming along this alley with torches.

"Over there, people are running there" I saw a man commanding calmly, and seeing him move twice at will, the people downstairs immediately split into two groups.

At this time, after the soldiers were separated, he slowly lowered his body and looked at the ground. "The blood is still wet, if you think that thief will not run far, you will see people in life, and you will see corpses in death, so catch her for me"

Seeing this, the woman knew that no matter how urgent this matter was, the most important task at the moment was to let Er Zhuyan hide quickly to avoid being caught by these officers and soldiers. If it was an ordinary person, she could ignore it, but this person was the Ruyi Langjun she had been looking for for three years before she could see it, and how could she easily let him be arrested by these officers and soldiers.

When the woman slowly dragged Er Zhuyan into the attic, the candle flame slowly hit her face. Perhaps it was the pain when the wound was torn that pulled Er Zhuyan awake again, and she vaguely opened her eyes to see a young woman pulling her to the warm bed to rest.

"Qing, Qingluo, why are you here" Er Zhuyan asked her with her consciousness in force. Seeing that she was gorgeously dressed, her graceful and wealthy appearance was not at all different from before, if it weren't for the pearl hairpin that Er Zhuyan once gave her, Er Zhuyan wouldn't be able to recognize her for a while.

Seeing this, Mu Qingluo hurriedly helped her lie down, and unhurriedly covered her with the quilt and planned to go out to deal with it. Er Zhuyan saw her get up and hurriedly grabbed her. "You can't go out, it's dangerous outside right now"

Mu Qingluo looked at him and saw that she was about to get up and leave, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop her. "Childe, someone is chasing you outside, don't worry, I will protect you thoroughly, no matter what, don't come out"

As he spoke, Mu Qingluo covered the futon for Zhu Yan and blew out all the candles in the room. Seeing that there were still a lot of Er Zhuyan's blood stains outside the attic, she hurriedly wiped the blood stains on the outside of the pavilion with a rag. Although her movements ended quickly, the officers and soldiers still followed the bloodstains and knocked on the door of the Qinglou.

The old bustard walked over with a sleepy face and opened the door very impatiently. As soon as they saw that it was this group of officers and soldiers who came in to search for the fugitives, the bustard, who was not quiet, could only let these officers and soldiers search wantonly. When he arrived at Mu Qingluo's room, the old bustard hurriedly stopped the leading officers and soldiers.

"Qingluo, let go of me and let me go" Seeing this, Er Zhuyan hurriedly planned to leave. She knew that she would never involve Mu Qingluo no matter what, but now that she was seriously injured, she really didn't have any strength.

Seeing this, Mu Qingluo hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her, only to see her slowly shaking her head at Er Zhuyan and signaling him not to be impulsive. The old bustard shouted helplessly outside the door: "Miss Meidai, Miss Meidai wake up, there is an official outside searching for fugitives, you open the door and let us Wen Baoxuan prove his innocence."

Before the old woman could say a few more words, she saw that the attendant was already very impatient and frantically slammed the door. Seeing this, Er Zhuyan said that she would not stay here for fear of embarrassing Qingluo.

Seeing this, Mu Qingluo really had no other way, so she looked at Er Zhuyan with a guilty face, and in a blink of an eye, she reached out and pinched her neck fiercely, and in less than a moment, there were several rednesses, Er Zhuyan was very puzzled when she saw this, he hurriedly stopped Mu Qingluo, only to see that Mu Qingluo saw that the flush between her neck was complete, so she hurriedly said to Er Zhuyan: "Son, I'm sorry"

Seeing that after she finished speaking, she hurriedly covered Er Zhuyan in the quilt with a quilt, and the knocking sound of the officers and soldiers on the door became stronger and stronger, believing that it would not be long before they pushed the door in. Rather than being very passive at that time, it is better for her to have absolute active authority at this moment.

Thinking of this, Mu Qingluo had already thought of a clever trick in his heart, what these officials were most afraid of was that they were pressed layer by layer, and there were few people who were not in awe of their direct bosses, although it would make Er Zhuyan see her unbearable side, but as long as she could save the son she was thinking about, it would be worth it.

The old bustard really couldn't stop him outside the door, and the officers and soldiers crackled at the door, and the people who wanted to sleep inside and knew each other were afraid that they would also be woken up by the thunder.

"Official, this is our Meidai girl's room, if the official wants to check into a person, it's fine, otherwise I'm afraid the above will be blamed."

"If the above is to blame, Uncle Ben will bear it. If there is really a suspect inside, are you responsible for this dereliction of duty? As he spoke, he ignored the bustard, and still knocked on the door strongly.

Seeing this, Mu Qingluo walked over with a hurried face half-draped in clothes and opened the door quickly. Seeing this, the soldier hurriedly flewed in place. Mu Qingluo glared at the soldier angrily and roared: "What knock, I've never seen anyone as anxious as you" After speaking, she looked at the old bustard: "Mom, what time is it, why did you let everyone in, what is it to be a daughter?" ”

The soldier saw that Mu Qingluo's light clothes were half-hidden, but he still couldn't cover a few kiss marks on his body, and he was naturally a little embarrassed when he saw this. Then, the man immediately returned to the same fierce appearance as when he came. "I'll wait for the order to handle the case, and ask the girl to get out of the way" As he spoke, the soldier was about to enter, but seeing this, Mu Qingluo hurriedly stretched out his arm to block the soldier who was about to enter the door.

At this time, another woman who was awakened by the search slowly walked to Mu Qingluo's side, only to see that this person looked at Mu Qingluo very lazily, and then muttered to herself with disdain:

"Yo, what should I be! Our sister Mei Dai has not always claimed to be "selling her art but not her body"" After speaking, she looked at Mu Qingluo's side with a lively face, "I thought my sister was a chaste martyr, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that"

Waiting for the woman to finish speaking, the old bustard immediately stopped her and said: "Cui Hong, you don't have to say a little less, Mei Dai's innocence is not allowed for you to speculate for no reason."

On weekdays, this woman named Cui Hong doesn't deal with Mu Qingluo very well. Since Mu Qingluo came here, her top identity has been replaced by Mu Qingluo. But Mu Qingluo is a very principled person, "show your art and not sell your body", no matter how many princes and nobles are obsessed with pursuing, this Mu Qingluo still can't back down half a step, the old bustard knows that Mu Qingluo's virgin body can attract a lot of distinguished guests for the yard, so he has to offer it to dare not provoke half a point.

Over the years, the capital has experienced many ups and downs, but one thing remains the same. That is, no matter who is in power, this Mu Qingluo can sit firmly like a mountain. No one knows what this teenage girl has been through, and no one knows why she stuck to her principles. The bustard only knows that this girl will become a cash cow here for a day here.

"Sister Cuihong, is this envy?" Mu Qingluo glanced at her without wanting to pay more attention, and then said to the officers and soldiers outside the door: "General, I stopped you today, not intentionally blocking your way, but the big people in this are something you and I can't afford to provoke."

Hearing Mu Qingluo say this, the soldier originally didn't believe it, until Mu Qingluo deliberately took out the seal orders left for her by a few gentlemen and deliberately displayed them, and the soldier's face changed greatly. Miss Xie reminded her to say goodbye to her, and the soldier hurriedly left with a big change in his face.

Seeing that the person who came was about to leave, Mu Qingluo looked back at the old bustard and the woman named Cuihong, with a hint of sleepiness on his face. "Mom, if it's okay, I'll go back," said Mu Qingluo and left slowly.

Seeing that Mu Qingluo is so arrogant, the woman named Cuihong has a part-time job that can be described as madness, but she has no power and power, and she can't recognize a few powerful people who can only hate herself for being incompetent.

"Whew! Call! After closing the door, Mu Qingluo clutched her chest with nervousness, but despite this, she still couldn't calm her thrilling heart instantly. After making sure there were no footsteps at the door, she walked briskly to the bed. "Childe, Childe, are you okay?" As she spoke, she quickly lifted the quilt. I saw Er Zhuyan sweating all over her head, and the whole person fainted again because of excessive blood loss.

To be honest, Mu Qingluo has looked forward to what she and Er Zhuyan will look like when they meet countless times in her heart, but she never thought that she would meet in today's scene. She carefully wiped Er Zhuyan's wounds, and after bandaging her, she fell asleep in front of Er Zhuyan sleepily.

The next day, when Er Zhuyan woke up, she lay beside her with satisfaction. "I'm still alive" Er Zhuyan opened her eyes in a daze, she wanted to get up but didn't want to tear open the wound, and before she could feel the pain, she found a young woman lying beside her. Seeing this, Er Zhuyan looked at her in surprise, and could vaguely remember what happened yesterday.

"Childe, are you awake" Mu Qingluo got up slowly, looking at Er Zhuyan looking at herself with wide eyes, she looked at her anxiously. "But there is something uncomfortable on my body, I'll go and ask the doctor to come," said Qingluo, and he was about to get up.

Seeing this, Er Zhuyan hurriedly grabbed her arm, and Mu Qingluo looked at her slowly. "You see, I'm confused, Childe must have been hungry when he first woke up, so I immediately ordered the kitchen to bring some food."

As he spoke, Mu Qingluo shouted towards the door: "Luan'er, you ask the kitchen to make me some food, remember to be fast" After speaking, Mu Qingluo got busy. Er Zhuyan knew that Qingluo deliberately wanted to get away from the topic, and seeing this, Er Zhuyan grabbed Mu Qingluo and asked.

"I remember what happened last night, I didn't give you silver taels, how did you get like this" Er Zhuyan skimmed here a little unaccustomedly, once she entered here, it would be difficult to be innocent. To be honest, she didn't dislike Mu Qingluo's identity as a member of Qinglou, she really didn't understand why she was like this.

The first prostitute in the capital, "Mei Dai Girl" Wen Baoxuan's head Hua Dan, originally she thought it was just the same name, but she didn't expect it to be a person. She really couldn't figure out why Mu Qingluo ended up here, she saved her from life with her front foot, and let her fall into the fire pit with her back foot.

Mu Qingluo knew that Er Zhuyan was complaining about her, she looked at Er Zhuyan with some self-reproach, and then slowly sat down in front of her and said, "This matter is a long story" After speaking, she was especially afraid that Er Zhuyan would dislike her because of her identity. In her cognition, Er Zhuyan is the son of everyone's sect, so naturally she can't have anything to do with a prostitute.

Mu Qingluo looked at him, there were a thousand, ten thousand thoughts of self-blame in her heart, she knew that although she was innocent now, she was no longer worthy of the cold and arrogant son in her heart. "Childe is disgusted..."

"You've suffered a lot over the years!" Er Zhuyan slowly grabbed her and asked.

"I" Mu Qingluo looked straight at him for a while, tears rained down for a while, rushed up and hugged Er Zhuyan tightly, originally she thought that she would dislike her if she was committed to Qinglou Er Zhuyan, but she didn't expect that the first sentence she heard was the words of concern for her.

"Qingluo is not bitter, as long as I can see Gongzi, even if I want Qingluo's life now, I will not hesitate to do so" said, she gently leaned on Er Zhuyan's shoulder, slowly reached out and hooked Er Zhuyan's neck and said: "Over the years, the only thought to support Qingluo to live is Gongzi, and sure enough, the emperor has lived up to his wishes, and really let Qingluo find Gongzi"

As she spoke, Mu Qingluo asked Er Zhuyan to tell her about everything she had encountered after she and Er Zhuyan had separated over the years. Including how she came to the capital, and how she got here.

"So, you were trafficked here by human traffickers" Er Zhuyan looked at her, her face was full of self-blame and distress, if she hadn't said goodbye back then, Qingluo would not have been trafficked here in order to find herself, so she was trafficked here on the way of thieves.

Mu Qingluo wiped her tears and said: "These are all over, as long as you can see Gongzi, Qingluo feels that it is worth doing anything" Saying that, Mu Qingluo took out the pearl hairpin that Er Zhuyan bought for her and the things that were given to her back then and handed them to Er Zhuyan one by one. "Childe, look at these, they were all given to me by Childe. It's a pity that they were all robbed by the traffickers, and I have found these pieces and pieces over the years, but I can't find the jade pendant that Gongzi gave me back then."

Thinking that she had lost the token that Er Zhuyan gave her, Mu Qingluo's eyes were full of frustration, and Er Zhuyan reached out to wipe her forehead when she saw this and said, "Silly girl, forget it if you can't find it, you see how you have come over all these years." If I had known that I would have brought you so much misery if I didn't say goodbye, I wouldn't have let you leave me half a step at the beginning."

Mu Qingluo grabbed Er Zhuyan's hand with a contented face and said: "It's not bitter, you can find a son, bitter is also sweet" After speaking, Mu Qingluo hugged Er Zhuyan with a happy face. She knew that her Zhuge Gongzi was back, and this time, she couldn't let him go no matter what.

"Qingluo, I" Er Zhuyan reached out and patted Mu Qingluo's arm, in fact, there was a sentence she had always wanted to tell her, in fact, she was not a son, but a woman like her. But seeing Mu Qingluo and seeing her eyes full of stars, she knew that she couldn't break this dream in her heart no matter what.

"Childe, what's wrong" Mu Qingluo lazily lay on her and looked at him. Er Zhuyan looked at Mu Qingluo with some embarrassment and said, "Did you bandage my wound for me?" ”

Seeing this, Mu Qingluo hurriedly reached out and wiped Zhu Yan's arm and asked, "Is the son in pain?" ”

Er Zhuyan shook her head when she saw this, judging from Qingluo's reaction, it seemed that she had not yet discovered her identity as her daughter's family, but in any case, Er Zhuyan knew that it was time for this game of women pretending to be men. Looking at Qingluo's portrait of him in the room, she knew what it meant, if she was really Mu Qing, then she would marry her. It's a pity that she's not, she's just Er Zhuyan. Er Zhuyan is burdened with a sea of blood and hatred, and she can't even involve any innocent person to die for this.

"Mu Qing, you help me get paper and ink, I want to write a letter to an old man" Er Zhuyan said and sat up, Mu Qingluo hurriedly helped Er Zhuyan towards the position of the desk.

Er Zhuyan walked to the desk, Qingluo quickly laid out the paper, pen and ink for her, and saw that the four treasures of the study room had been prepared, Er Zhuyan slowly picked up the brush and wrote: "Huan's wife Lou's family, Jibei, assist Murong." After Mu Qing's simple words were written, Er Zhuyan put it in an envelope and asked Qingluotuo to send it to the ingot torch.

Seeing that Er Zhuyan's bloody clothes were blurred, Mu Qingluo asked someone to bring Er Zhuyan clothes of the right size for her early. A moment later, Qingluo's personal maid Luan'er brought a man's dress to her. "You go down first!" After speaking, Luan'er stepped back at the door.

Qingluo took a clean dress, walked up to Er Zhuyan with a shy face and said: "Childe, Childe's clothes are stained with blood, this dress was bought by Qing'er asked the maid to go to the market in the morning, and asked Childe to change it."

After speaking, Qingluo put her clothes on the table, and she slowly walked up to Er Zhuyan and slowly stretched out her hand to help Er Zhuyan untie her clothes. Er Zhuyan knew that maybe it would be good for her to see the truth with her own eyes, she was not Zhuge Muqing after all, so it could make her die.

I saw Qingluo walking up to Er Zhuyan with a shy face, and the whole person's breath was a lot flustered, she didn't even dare to look directly at Er Zhuyan's body, and her whole cheeks immediately flushed. Seeing this, Er Zhuyan grabbed Qingluo's hand and said, "Qingluo, there is something I want to tell you,"

Hearing that Er Zhuyan had something to tell herself, Mu Qingluo looked at her with a shy face. Seeing this, Er Zhuyan stumbled for a long time, and just as he was about to speak, the ingot torch rushed in.

"Me"

Before Er Zhuyan finished speaking, the ingots torch had already entered, and the voice had already come before others arrived. "Mu Qing, are you okay?" After speaking, he quickly pushed open the door and saw Er Zhuyan and Mu Qingluo looking at each other with clasped hands. Seeing this, Er Zhuyan hurriedly said to the Yuan Bao Torch in a panic: "Don't get me wrong, we are not what you think."

Obviously, no one would have expected that the ingot torch would come in at this time, and no one would have thought that things would develop like this. Mu Qingluo was full of shyness and pulled out her hand in Er Zhuyan's hand and said, "Qingluo retired first" As she spoke, she left shyly.

Seeing this, Er Zhuyan rubbed her head helplessly, and she looked at Yuan Baoju very resentfully: "Who let you come in at this time, you didn't see it"

Seeing this, Yuan Bao Torch said with a smile on his face. "See, that girl likes you, and I'm not blind. The dignified Wen Baoxuan's top brand Meidai girl, who doesn't change her money overnight, can actually keep you overnight. It seems that Zhuge Gongzi is really capable of what people can't! ”

"Don't say that, Qingluo, she's not such a person." Er Zhuyan glared at Yuan Bao Ju, originally asked him to assist Murong Shaozong in finding Mei Niang, but now it seems that he must have arranged for Yuan Song to go. This cunning person must have bought off the maid next to Qingluo, and only then did he know that she was here.

"I found out the name of Miss Meidai before she left the pavilion so soon" said, Yuan Baoju looked at Er Zhuyan with an angry face, not knowing whether it was envy or jealousy. Anyway, there is always some intriguing expression on his face. As he spoke, he was full of worry and dragged Er Zhuyan's arm to check her pulse, and found that she was not in any major trouble except for the skin trauma on her arm.

"Wait, Mei Dai's maiden name is Mu, Mu Qingluo, Mu Qing, Qingluo" Thinking of this, Yuan Baoju didn't know why the whole person seemed to be eating ** and didn't want to pay attention to Er Zhuyan. "It seems that this girl has a deep love for you! You see, this acquaintance is probably not a dream," he said, he picked up the portrait of Er Zhuyan painted by Mu Qingluo and flew up secretly.

"If you're okay, you can go out, I still have to change my clothes," said Er Zhuyan and glanced at the ingot. The current relationship between the two of them is to cooperate and be cooperative, to be honest, she doesn't like verbose people, and it is not because of anything else that she can endure the ingot torch for so long, but because she thinks this person is resourceful, and now it seems that she really can't praise more.

Yuan Bao Ju stayed in place and looked at her straight, Er Zhuyan looked at him with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Go out!" ”

Yuan Bao Ju replied: "Miss Mei Dai is suitable to ask me to help you change your clothes to prevent you from pulling the wound"

"Get out!" After speaking, Er Zhuyan picked up the scissors on the table and gestured at the ingots torch.

I saw a sudden knock on the door of a person, and Yuan Baoju and Er Zhuyan looked out of the door in unison. "Childe, can you change your clothes, and come down to eat after you change your clothes! Do you need Qing'er's help? ”

When Er Zhuyan heard this, she looked at the Yuan Bao Torch again, and hurriedly said to Mu Qingluo: "No, no need, I'll be fine right away" She hurriedly nervously pulled her clothes and wanted to change her clothes quickly, but the Yuan Bao Torch kept laughing in place when she saw this. Seeing this, Er Zhuyan looked at him sternly and said, "Look at what, turn around"
