Chapter VI: Punishment
After a simple meal, Mu Yunqi changed into women's clothes and sneaked into the inner courtyard of King Qin's mansion. The inner courtyard of King Qin's Mansion is really big, and I don't know how many women Situ Jing has hidden here for so many years.
When she finally found Mu Yunxuan's courtyard, she saw Mu Yunxuan kneeling in the courtyard with a basin full of water on his head, and a group of subordinates standing around him lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. An old woman who looked like an aunt was holding a bamboo whip in her hand and surrounded Mu Yunxuan, not knowing what she was training, and she had to whip her twice from time to time, and the water in the basin would overflow with Mu Yunxuan's shaking, wetting her clothes, and the aunt would have to fill it up again if the water was less.
Mu Yunqi couldn't bear it anymore after watching it for a while, she found a rope, jumped to the highest tree in the courtyard and threw the rope, tied the aunt strongly, and then jumped down from the tree and hung the aunt from the tree, and tore off a piece of cloth from the aunt's clothes to gag her mouth.
All this was only in an instant, everyone was stunned, Mu Yun got up and came to Mu Yunxuan, and carefully took down the basin on her head, at this time the maids stepped forward and said: "The woman is heroic, but this is arranged by His Royal Highness, I'm afraid it ......"
Mu Yunqi picked up Mu Yunxuan, who was already numb in his legs, and asked, "Why was you punished?" ”
Mu Yunxuan rubbed his legs and said, "When His Highness came down in the morning, I accidentally broke the bowl, so I was punished. ”
Mu Yunqi knew in his heart when he heard that Situ Jing was angry with her and ran to Mu Yunxuan to vent his anger, so that she would know that Mu Yunxuan would not be happy if he was angry. She looked down at Mu Yunxuan, a lovely and delicate girl, no wonder it was a treasure in the palm of her grandfather's hand, if he knew that Mu Yunxuan was so distressed here.
Mu Yunxuan eased up a lot, looked at Mu Yunqi and said, "The girl is also His Highness's woman?" Look at you so familiar, like the person in the portrait in my room? ”
"In your room?" Mu Yunqi looked around, where was there any portrait.
Mu Yunxuan shook his head, "It's not here, it's in the Mu family, I lived in the room of the eldest uncle and aunt, there are portraits of the eldest uncle and aunt, the uncle is really young and handsome, better looking than his grandfather and father, and the aunt is also beautiful, I didn't want to be such a match but died young." ”
Mu Yunqi listened to her talk about her parents, and there were ripples in his heart, but he didn't show it.
"The Mu family is a big family second only to the royal family in the court today, with a prosperous family and a big business, which makes people envious."
"The Mu family is too big, and there are many pavilions and pavilions, so it's better for me to take you to see it when I have the chance." Mu Yunxuan easily accepted Mu Yunqi, which made Mu Yunqi very happy, but he said: "I don't dare to be, although I am curious, it is difficult to enter the Hou Gate, why don't you draw a picture for me to satisfy my curiosity." ”
"That's good, I'll paint it for you now, but I won't be able to finish painting it for a while, the Mu family is really too big."
"Don't worry, you draw slowly, we'll be in the future."
The two of them were talking, and someone had already secretly gone to tell King Qin, Mu Yunqi heard the footsteps of many people from a distance, and immediately said: "Someone is coming, I'll go first, and I'll look at your painting another day." ”
Before Mu Yunxuan could speak, she flew onto the roof and ran. Situ Jing and the others came in only to see a white figure flying by, Chu Yuan was just about to chase after him, but was stopped by Situ Jing, "You can't catch up with her." Chu Yuan also knew in his heart who that person was.
At this time, the subordinates put the aunt down with all hands and feet. As soon as the aunt was free, she immediately knelt down in front of Situ Jing and cried: "Your Highness atoned for your sins, the old slave tied me to a tree without knowing when the woman appeared, and asked Your Highness to punish me." ”
Situ Jing waved his hand, and someone took the aunt away. He walked into the room and saw Mu Yunxuan kneeling on the ground with his subordinates, and he didn't stop, but Xu Bu came to the desk and saw the unfolded paper and asked, "Miss Mu wants to paint?" ”
Mu Yunxuan knelt down and turned around and replied, "Yes, make a picture for the girl who saved me just now." ”
"Draw what?"
"Mu Family"
"Let's draw well." After speaking, Situ Jing turned around and left.
As soon as Mu Yunqi changed into men's clothes, someone knocked on the door and said, "His Highness told you to go to his study." ”
Mu Yunqi replied: "I know, go over immediately." Then go back to the mirror and see if there is nothing wrong before walking out of the room.
When Mu Yun arrived at Situ Jing's study, Situ Jing was sitting there reading a book, and when he saw her come in, he didn't put down the book in his hand, just let her stand there.
After a long time, Mu Yunqi began to feel a little uncomfortable, after all, she had her first experience last night. She no longer simply stood, but began to move, probably because the medicine was too strong, and it hurt more when she moved, and after a while, beads of sweat on her head ran down her cheeks.
I don't know how long it took for Situ Jing to raise his eyes to look at her, and this glance could startle him into a cold sweat, only to see Mu Yunqi's face pale, his lips bloodless, and he was also standing there drowsy.
Situ Jing hurriedly got up and came to her side, just in time to hold her body that was about to fall. Mu Yunqi was supported by him to lie on the bed in the study, looking at her weak appearance, and asked distressedly, "It's just that how can the first night be so serious?" ”
Mu Yunqi replied weakly, "It may be that luck was injured in the morning." ”
Hearing her say this, Situ Jing immediately used his skills to heal her, and when the true qi opened up the meridians, Mu Yunqi felt much more comfortable. Situ Jing helped her lie down and said, "Have a good rest, we'll talk about it when you're well." Mu Yunqi nodded weakly, and then fell asleep.
This night, Mu Yun didn't wake up until dusk, and Situ Jing guarded her worriedly. Seeing her wake up, Situ Jing quickly helped her up and asked, "It's better." ”
Mu Yunqi moved his body, which was much better than before, so he nodded. When Situ Jing saw that she was well, he asked, "What is your intention in asking Mu Yunxuan to paint the Mu family for you?" ”
Mu Yunqi glanced up at him, then lowered his head again and said: "That used to be my home, I want to know about it, and the Mu family is so big that there will definitely be ulterior secrets, if you can catch Mu Zhiyuan's handle, maybe you and I can escape from this quagmire." ”
After hearing her words, Situ Jing shook his head and said: "The court is a dangerous place, we still can't be alone without the Mu family, you can go if you want to, protect yourself." After speaking, he got up and walked towards the desk, took two steps and turned back and said, "You can rest here tonight, and I will stay here too." Hearing him say this, Mu Yunqi couldn't wait to leave the study immediately.
