Chapter 734: Seven Steps
After nearly an hour of playing in the snow, Mu Yunge said goodbye to Murong Beihai and walked out of the post station with Zhang Ying.
Zhang Ying asked quite puzzledly: "Why don't you just explain our intention to him directly?" Wouldn't it be easier for you to know the poison in the snow? ”
Mu Yunge shook his head and said noncommittally: "It's the first time I've made an antidote for animals, and I'm a little unsure if I can prepare it, although what you said is good, but I know my medical skills, and I don't need to go through Murong Beihai to get poison information." ”
The poison in the snow is called Qibu San, which is a poison extracted from the gall of the Western Regions country named Qibu Snake, but whenever it is licked by cats and dogs, it will be transmitted from the mouth to the intestinal organs, and finally die violently.
When he returned to the mansion, Mu Yunge stuffed himself in the pharmacy and did not allow others to disturb him.
After a night of concoction, after repeated failures, Mu Yunge finally researched the antidote to this poison.
Coming to the post station again, Mu Yunge handed the bottle containing the antidote to Murong Beihai and advised: "Twice a day in the morning and evening, just pour a drop into the drunken snow food, and the toxins in the body can be eliminated in less than half a month." ”
Murong Beihai never thought that Mu Yunge would detoxify his cat, although he was skeptical, Mu Yunge's face was sincere and his tone was sincere, he didn't look like a lie at all, and he immediately believed her words.
"At first, I thought that drunken snow was fateful, after all, the poison had not been released, but as it became more and more lethargic and did not dare to be interested in those gadgets it used to love to play, I realized that the poison in its body was spreading step by step." Murong Beihai was talking sadly, and now the only thing that could accompany him was Zui Xue, and he couldn't accept Zui Xue's departure.
"Thank you Miss Mu for your help, please let me treat you to a meal to express my gratitude." Murong Beihai spoke out again with gratitude.
"It's the prince's words, it's just my gesture, since the prince is polite, then I'm also disrespectful." Mu Yunge took the opportunity to agree to Murong Beihai's invitation to dinner, she originally wanted to get closer to him by detoxifying Zuixue.
The two came to the first floor to eat, and Murong Beihai asked the owner to bring all the signature dishes to the table.
Mu Yunge felt that it was a waste and wanted to stop it, but suddenly noticed a long jade figure coming in from the door, the man put together his black clothes, the hosta golden crown, his temperament was dusty, and a pair of eyes as deep as the night looked around the hall without a trace.
Due to the distance, Mu Yunge only saw the shopkeeper greet the man in Xuanyi with a smile on his knees, and respectfully led him into the box on the second floor, while the two strong bodyguards who followed the man in Xuanyi were standing at the door of the box with a serious face.
This man's appearance is somewhat familiar, as if he knows someone.
Mu Yunge thought so, and then set her eyes on Murong Yunhai, only to see that his mood was suddenly lost, he shrugged his head and said nothing, she had a flash of inspiration, and compared the man's face with Murong Beihai's appearance, and it was really familiar, his sword eyebrows and starry eyes were exactly the same as Murong Beihai.
Mu Yunge couldn't help but guess the identity of the man in Xuanyi, and at this moment, Murong Beihai seemed to know her doubts, and explained in a low voice: "He is my second brother Murong Sheng." ”
Murong Sheng? Isn't it the second prince of the Western Regions? How did he end up here?
Mu Yunge had heard of this prince early on, he was favored by the emperor of the Western Regions, and he was proficient in all kinds of martial arts, some people commented that this prince was close to the people and loved the people, and some people described him as extremely vicious and vicious.
But Mu Yunge and Murong Sheng don't know each other, so it's hard to determine which party's point of view is correct, but judging from Murong Beihai's suppressed and lost emotions, Murong Sheng, who can live in the royal family, is definitely not as simple as rumored.
"You don't have a good relationship with the second prince?" Mu Yunge asked cautiously.
Murong Beihai smiled bitterly and sighed: "It's not that we can describe our relationship with good or bad, although we are both princes, we were born to compete for the symbol of the existence of the throne, not to mention that the second brother is loved and pampered, how can I be compared with him." ”
Mu Yunge saw Murong Beihai's pain, and for a while he didn't know how to reply and comfort.
Thinking far away, Murong Beihai stared at the deep gaze under the table, and continued with a sense of disappointment: "If you really want to talk about it, it's just that my second brother and I haven't been close since we were children, he has the path he has been arranged, and I also have my own path to take, although I also admire him, but I can't talk to him on the tip of my nose." ”
Mu Yunge was silent, and said for a while: "I can understand your concerns, there are some things that we can't control, but since they exist, living is meaningful." ”
"Maybe you're right." Murong Beihai curled the corners of his lips and smiled self-deprecatingly.
Because of Murong Sheng's appearance, the atmosphere on the table was instantly dull and solemn, Mu Yunge originally took this opportunity to get closer to each other and get some information from Murong Beihai's mouth, but now that the situation is complicated, she can only put aside the plan she originally prepared for the time being, waiting to find the next opportunity.
After the banquet, Murong Beihai returned to the wing room of the post station, sat on the bluestone collapse of the window with the snow in his arms, and thought about his thoughts.
Xiao Xin stepped into the room, saw him frowning, and asked in surprise, "What's going on again?" The poison of treading snow has been cured, shouldn't you be happy? ”
Murong Beihai looked at Xiao Xin with a gloomy gaze, and said helplessly: "The second brother also came to the post house today, presumably my father thought that I was not doing well, so the second brother also came to the Central Plains to inspect." ”
Xiao Xin's eyes widened in surprise and said, "The second prince is also here, why didn't the emperor inform him in advance." ”
"My father is tired of my stupidity, and he must feel that he doesn't need to tell me about this, the second brother is very decisive in his actions, and he will definitely satisfy his father."
Xiao Xin said angrily: "Then you shouldn't say a word, just hand over the task to the second prince!" You have been in the Central Plains for so long, and you should have done the investigation, you are also the prince, how can the emperor not trust your ability. ”
Murong Beihai's thin lips were pursed very tightly, and he froze in place silently, and after a long time, he said with sadness: "Xiao Xin, I already know that I am disappointed in my father and the emperor, and my mother, she will definitely blame me for my father handing over the task to the second brother, maybe I am really a wasted person, the worst one among the princes." ”
Xiao Xin felt sorry for him and gave up on himself alone, suppressed the anger in his eyes, and hurriedly and gently comforted: "Even if the emperor doesn't value you, but in my eyes, you are also the most responsible, kindest and loving among the princes, I believe that the emperor will one day find the brilliance on you, instead of just focusing on the second prince." ”
