Chapter 58: Mr. Storyteller
"Princess, there's a letter from the South Wind Country." Mange handed the letter to Bai Hibiscus, it had been so long before the South Wind Kingdom had written, and I didn't know what had been written.
Bai Hibiscus opened the letter and frowned. This old emperor actually asked her to bring back the world drawings tomorrow no matter what, and if she didn't bring them back, she wouldn't have given her the antidote every month in the future.
How could he be so ruthless? That day, she got angry and threw the jade pendant on the table, and then she didn't know where it went, which made her how to give it to him.
Mange took the letter out of Bai Hibiscus's hand and glanced at it, and said anxiously, "Princess, Your Majesty asked you to hand over the drawings tomorrow, otherwise the antidote ......, what should the princess do?" ”
"I don't know, I don't know what to do, I didn't see the jade pendant after I threw it on the table that day, and I didn't care about it during this time, I don't know where the jade pendant is."
Man Ge crossed his hands, looked at Bai Hibiscus and asked cautiously, "Princess, if you can find the blueprints, will you bring them back to the South Wind Country?" ”
Bai Hibiscus twisted her two beautiful eyebrows together, biting her lower lip and looking at Mange, "No, I won't hand over the drawings, although the antidote is very important to me, I have been thinking for so long that my father will use carrier pigeons to bring the antidote every month, but the antidote will not cure the poison on my body, it will only relieve the pain, it is useless." I am her own daughter, and even if I were born to kill my mother and brother, I am also his daughter, and if I give him the drawings, he will not cure me according to the credit. Because he hates me. ”
"Why should I give him the drawings instead of that? It's also painful to give every month, and it's also painful not to give, my father's ambition is so big, once he gets the blueprints, the four kingdoms will be chaotic, with his ruthlessness, he won't let him go because Mu Junnian is my father-in-law, and in the end, Mu Junnian won't live,"
She doesn't allow this to happen, she came through time, once the medium appears, she will leave here, she hopes that Mu Junnian will live well, if he can, she hopes that he can unlock the secret of the drawings and rule the world. She really loved him, and she couldn't do that.
Hearing Bai Hibiscus say this, Man Ge knew that she would not bring the drawings back to the South Wind Country, and the hand under the sleeve tightly covered the sleeve pocket, and her brown eyes flashed with determination.
Since the princess has taken on the responsibility of the mother country, she will not treat her as her own anymore, no matter what, she will not live up to the trust of the heavenly master, let alone betray the country of the south wind.
The nights in August were not as hot as in previous months, and tonight was cool, and after dinner, Bai Hibiscus looked at the book in his hand boredly, to be precise, he was in a daze.
Mu Junnian entered the door and saw Bai Hibiscus sitting there motionless, stepped forward and looked at the book in her hand, it was actually taken upside down, raised her eyebrows, and her voice was doting, "When did Jin'er learn the ability to read the book upside down?" ”
Bai Jin didn't reply, still so stunned, Mu Junnian frowned, and called again, "Jin'er?" ”
"Huh? What did you say? Coming back to her senses, Bai Hibiscus raised her head and asked.
Mu Junnian bent down to pick her up and gently placed her on the bed, as if he had placed an incomparably precious treasure, carefully.
Kissing her forehead gently, her dark eyes seemed to be a deep pool, causing Bai Hibiscus to fall. "What is Jin'er thinking, in such a daze?"
Looking at Mu Junnian's dark eyes, Bai Hibiscus opened his mouth and swallowed back the words he wanted to say. Forget it, don't ask, if Yupei is in Mu Junnian, it is the best, it is much safer than being here.
Shaking his head with a smile, he reached out and put his arm around his neck, and a kiss fell on Mu Junnian's cold lips, "Idiot." ”
How could Mu Junnian let go of Bai Hibiscus's initiative this time? The corners of his lips hooked the white hibiscus into his arms, and his big hand clasped behind her head frantically demanded the fragrance from her mouth.
The scent of ink on Mu Junnian's body filled the snort of Bai Hibiscus, which made her intoxicated.
The hibiscus tent is warm, intertwined with each other, and has a good night.
Early in the morning, Mu Junnian went to the morning court as usual, Bai Hibiscus woke up and didn't see Mange, thinking that he was going to the News Pavilion to deal with affairs, after all, the News Pavilion was all handled by Mange, and it seemed that he was very busy these days, so he thought that Bai Hibiscus also went with her.
There is no antidote for this month, I really don't know if she can survive the Gu poison attack, Qingxue hasn't come for so long, maybe she really can't solve the Gu poison on her body, what else does she hope for when even the world's holy doctors can't solve the poison?
casually ate two bites of breakfast and left the Nine Emperors' Mansion. Bai Hibiscus is an idle person, and if she is told to stay honest in the house, she will definitely go crazy. Wandering around the street alone a few laps, to be honest, she slipped all over the streets of the capital, from the novelty at the beginning to the lack of interest today, it would be good if you could cross the mobile phone when you crossed, there was nothing in ancient times, no network, no mobile phone, no TV, no video game city, no game hall, nothing.
Even though she has been in ancient times for so long, there are some places where she still doesn't fit in. Mu Qing doesn't know what's going on, there's no news since he returned to Liuyun, he won't have enough of playing in ancient times and go back and ignore her, right?
God, I hope not! "Hibiscus?"
A voice behind him made Bai Hibiscus stop, looked back to see that it was Mu Junxi, and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, I met you here, look where are you going to play in this casual dress?" ”
Mu Junxi smiled gently, "I can't talk about playing until I can't talk about it, I just have nothing to do and wander around." ”
Bai Hibiscus smiled and didn't say anything more. Mu Junxi didn't seem to have a purpose, and proposed, "It's boring to see you wandering around so casually, I heard that a new storyteller has opened not far ahead, and the story he said is very bizarre and unexpected, and it is very popular, why don't we go there and hear any bizarre stories?" ”
Bai Hibiscus thought about it, anyway, it was boring, and he couldn't walk on this street all the time, since he was invited, he couldn't ignore people's intentions, so he nodded and said hello.
The two entered the storytelling building, found a place that can be said to be a good place to sit down, at first Bai Hibiscus did not listen carefully, but later after hearing the woman from a foreign country, Bai Hibiscus was slightly stunned, turned his head and looked at the storyteller downstairs carefully.
"It is said that this woman from a foreign country will have many things that this country does not have, and her thoughts are different from ordinary people, and an unexpected encounter met the most important man in her life, and the other party did not know each other. A holy decree bound the two together......"
"In the end, due to the war in the country, the two were forced to separate, and the woman was taken back to her own country, and the man was willing to offer his country in order to save his beloved, but in the end he was still injured, the woman's heart was like a knife, and in order to save his beloved died under the knife of the mother country, the man roared bitterly and then killed himself and went to Huangquan with his beloved woman."
After the old storyteller finished speaking, the people in the audience all applauded, and some even felt a few painful songs for the love story of the two, and the people in the audience shouted to say another one.
The old man shook his head and vetoed, and Cang Sang's voice said to the listener, "Today's story is finished, if you want to hear the next story, come back tomorrow." ”
When the listeners saw the old man say this, they also shook their heads and regretfully walked out of the listening building.
The guests left intermittently, and Bai Hibiscus sat motionless, looking at the position of the old storyteller who had left downstairs with a somewhat stunned look. She didn't know what was wrong with her, after the old man told this story, her heart was a little flustered, hiding a lot of uneasiness, who was that old man?
Mu Junxi saw that Bai Hibiscus was still sitting and had no intention of leaving, thinking that she hadn't heard enough, so she smiled warmly, "If Xiao Hibiscus still wants to listen, she can come tomorrow, and after today's story is finished, it's time to leave." ”
Mu Junxi's voice interrupted Bai Hibiscus's thoughts, and he turned his head and smiled, "The book that the old man said is really different, this kind of love story even moves me, just like Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, but compared to Liang Zhu's love, I prefer the story in this book, the plot is novel, eclectic, and endless." ”
"yes, it's the first time I've heard a story like this, so it's no wonder it's so popular."
Mu Junxi and Bai Hibiscus walked side by side, recalling the beginning of the story, and couldn't help but sigh.
"In fact, love is the moon in the mirror, you can't touch it, but you can deeply experience the sweetness and sourness in it, and the love that has gone through all kinds of hardships is the real love, and it is better to have a warm taste than mediocrity."
When she said this, her clear eyes flashed with satisfaction, and Mu Junxi looked at the smile in her eyes, as if something was blocked in her heart.
How much does she like the Nine Emperor Brothers to say such thorough words of love? Hibiscus, do you know that not only the Nine Emperor Brothers love you, but there is also one by your side who also likes you? And this liking is never lost to the Nine Emperor Brothers?
Seeing that it was almost noon, Mu Junxi proposed to have lunch with Bai Hibiscus in the restaurant, but she refused, since listening to the old storyteller's book in the morning, she always felt that something was going to happen, and her heart was furious.
Saying goodbye to Mu Junxi, this feeling is even stronger when I return to the house, why haven't I seen Mama since I entered the house? In the past, lunch had already been set up in the hall at this time, waiting for her and Mu Junnian to eat, what happened today?
Mama is not there, Mange is not there, and even Mu Junnian doesn't know where to go.
Out of the hall and walked in the direction of the study, unexpectedly, the door of the study was open, raised his feet and went in to see everyone there, and said with a smile, "Why are you all here?" It's hard for me to find. ”
After speaking, he caught a glimpse of Man Ge kneeling in front of Mu Junnian, and saw her come in and whispered, "Princess." ”
Bai Hibiscus frowned and quickly stepped forward to help Man Ge up from the ground and asked, "Why are you kneeling on the ground, what happened?" ”
Man Ge glanced at Mu Junnian, who was standing with his hands behind his back in front of him, and shook his head with a crying voice, "The princess has failed, our plan has failed." ”
Fail? "What failure? What plans I don't know? Mango, what are you talking about? Bai Hibiscus was a little confused by what Mange said, and wanted to continue asking.
