Chapter 160: The Mysterious Child
King Yi: "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is extremely true. This wife is naturally enough to have a confidant. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as the prince, will definitely seek the well-being of all the people in the coming days. With such hard work, how can you waste time on your children's private affairs? As for criticism......"
King Yi looked at the shining Longquan sword hanging on the wall with a smile, and said with a bit of murderous aura: "It's not that this king is boasting, there is this king in one day, and there is Qing Jiajun in one day, and there will be no one in the court who is not long-sighted and dares to criticize His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the little girl because of such a thing." β
In less than half a day, except for Mu Qi who has not changed his name to his father-in-law, Qing Mu almost gave birth to the illusion that she and Mu Qi are going to get married tomorrow.
Before Mu Qi left, he looked at Qing Mu with a gentle smile and said, "On the Yuan Festival the day after tomorrow, there will be a lantern festival in the city." Xiang'er has always liked to be lively, so when the time comes, will I accompany you to enjoy the lanterns? β
Qing Mu patted his face, which had been smiling for a day, almost stiff, and was extremely happy that he finally had a chance to speak.
"I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still ......"
Before the words of refusal were spoken, King Yi couldn't hide his excited voice behind him.
"Nature is superb!"
He patted Mu Qi on the shoulder and said with a bright smile: "Young man, naturally you should go out for a walk more." Your Highness rest assured, tomorrow the little girl will be waiting for His Highness in the house. β
"Then I'll go back and prepare, Xiang'er has to wait for me to pick you up at home."
Qingmu: "......"
So now in this game, she's the one being played, right?
Late at night, Biluoxuan, a melodious flute sound caused Qing Mu to sleep.
The familiar melody lingered in Qing Mu's ears until a string burst in her head, and Qing Mu slammed out of bed.
She got dressed and got out of bed as fast as she could, running all the way to the source of the sound.
chased all the way to the backyard, and the sound of the flute finally disappeared.
On the wall, a touch of white clothes attracted Qing Mu's attention.
"Since Childe is here, why is he pretending to be mysterious on the wall?"
Qing Mu's cold voice came, and the figure hidden in the shade of the trees on the wall moved slightly.
A light green flower note slowly fell, Qing Mu's attention was attracted by the note, and before he knew it, the white figure on the wall had left.
"There is beauty and a person, and I will never forget it. I don't see it for a day, and I think like a mad ...... The lantern festival the day after tomorrow, I hope to talk about the beautiful woman, and I will not see it. β
It is Sima Xiangru's "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix".
Qing Mu frustrated and threw away the note.
It seems that she thinks too much, so simple and straightforward, directly excerpts other people's poems, and adds the last few words, Qing Mu can conclude that the guy who pretended to be a ghost should be Mu Qi didn't run away.
She just heard a favorite ancient song when she was a child, thinking that her doppelganger actually took the initiative to find her, and she ran out of the house in a hurry.
Now that I think about it, the company would have made it so easy for her to complete the task.
When did the evil capitalist not want to exploit her before he was willing?
Returning to the house with a lack of interest, Xiao Mi was already waiting there with a well-behaved face.
Seeing Qing Mu's depressed face, Xiao Mi asked understandingly, "Dear master, may I ask what trouble you have encountered?" Can Xiao Mi solve it for you? β
Qing Mu glanced at it, sighed and said, "...... You? Forget it, you'd better live well. β
Half an hour later......
"So master, you rushed out in a hurry just now because you suspected that the mysterious boy on the wall was your doppelganger. Who knew that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was waiting there, and then he came back unhappy, right? β
After Xiao Mi asked, before Qing Mu could answer, she said with a serious face: "Master, how do you know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely not be your doppelganger?" β
This time, Qing Mu hesitated.
She pondered for a while, then said, "It shouldn't be him." According to the information, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to have done anything that shouldn't be done yet. Isn't my task to persuade the doppelgangers to abandon evil and turn to good? That doppelganger should be a villain, right? β
"Master, you are so naΓ―ve!"
Xiao Mi, who was supposed to be a robot, suddenly became very serious.
It picked up its cute little face, stared at Qing Mu for a while, and said, "Few of the children who grew up in the palace are really innocent. β
Xiao Mi continued to analyze seriously: "What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince obviously doesn't like the master very much, but he is so persistent in marrying the master." Doesn't this just show that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is developing on the road to blackening? β
What he said was so reasonable that Qing Mu didn't even have the slightest room to refute!
Qing Mu began to seriously recall Mu Qi's various performances during the day today.
Such a simple and crude method of forcing the palace, and the rhetoric of marrying only one......
I have to say that once she accepted this setting, no matter how she looks at it now, Mu Qi is the same as her, and she has the quality of a modern person.
If that's really the case......
The corners of Qing Mu's mouth hooked up a shallow smile, and there was even a hint of excitement in her eyes.
"Isn't it, you won't know if you try it the day after tomorrow!"
β¦β¦
Shangyuan Festival, the whole world celebrates.
Early in the morning, although the Muqi people did not arrive, they ordered someone to send a blue dress that looked very neat and neat.
This outfit is very different from what Qing Mu has seen during this time.
The wide sleeves were tightened into narrow sleeves, and the one-piece lower skirt that Qing Mu had been a headache was directly changed to the style of a dress.
Qing Mu looked at this new dress and couldn't help but be even happier.
It seems that her doppelganger's IQ is nothing more than that. Exposed himself so quickly.
As soon as the night falls, the city is lit up, and there is a bit of a festive atmosphere.
Mu Qi was a very good person, knowing that such a day was not suitable for making too much of an exaggeration, so he gave up the gorgeous prince's chariot and only sent an ordinary carriage to pick up people.
Qing Mu was very cooperative and followed the guards who came to pick up people into the carriage, and looked at the ten miles of lanterns all the way, until he was almost past Suzaku Street, and then he realized that something was wrong.
"Didn't you say go to Suzaku Street? Now that it's almost over, why keep going? β
Qing Mu looked at the flow of people outside the window, and her brows furrowed more and more.
If she remembers correctly, if she goes down this road, it should be Xuanwu Street, where the ministers of the DPRK and China live.
It's not a place that ordinary people can go to casually, and there is no special scenery to enjoy.
It's good, there's no way Muzi will ask her to be there.
Hearing her question, the guard in charge of driving the car outside replied respectfully: "Back to the county lord, my master said that it is not very peaceful on Suzaku Street today. The county lord has a golden body, so it's better not to go over. β
"The host ......"
Qing Mu groaned, generally speaking, the guards around Mu Qi called him His Highness, right?
Realizing that things seemed to have deviated from the original development, Qing Mu looked at Lu Xiang with a calm face and said, "Lu Xiang, let them stop!" I'm going back! β
When Lu Xiang heard this, he was about to ask the coachman to stop, but the man opened his mouth first: "County Lord, you haven't arrived yet." Please go back and sit down first, and you will be there in a moment. β
Qing Mu's face changed suddenly, and even his voice was three points colder.
"I said, stop! Let me go down! β
She pushed away the green incense, ready to jump out of the car.
Who knew that the guard not only had no intention of stopping, but even said in a calmer voice: "County Lord, the carriage is galloping at this moment. For the sake of your jade body, the little one advises you to go back and sit wide! β
Qing Mu was furious and said coldly: "Bold! Who are you to threaten the lord of this county? β
The guard no longer answered Qing Mu's question, but continued to walk forward.
Qing Mu's heart was crossed, and he simply pulled off the hairpin on his head, and said coldly against his neck: "If your master wants you to bring a corpse back, it's okay, just go forward!" β
"Don't!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the guard hurriedly stopped the carriage.
Qing Mu quickly took a look at the surrounding environment, fortunately, he had not yet entered the alley where no one had entered.
She stared at the guard coldly, and said word by word: "The county lord will give you a chance, let me go back to the house, or take my corpse back to my life." Weigh it yourself! β
Qing Mu knows who he is now.
In the strategy given by the system king, it was mentioned that King Yi's power was tilted towards the government and the opposition, and even the current emperor had to give him three points.
So she was sure that no one who was not afraid of death dared to ask for her life.
Seeing that there was already a bit of hesitation on the guard's face, Qing Mu continued: "You have to think carefully, today's county lord should have gone to the appointment of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. An East Palace and a Yi Wangfu, if something really happens to me, your master can not protect your life! β
The guard still looked embarrassed, and said calmly: "Don't be embarrassed by the county lord. β
Qing Mu was speechless, complaining about how he met such a dead-eyed idiot today, while thinking about whether he really had to stab himself in order to scare and scare this guy.
She was hesitating when the man suddenly pounced.
Qing Mu was startled, and subconsciously used the hairpin in his hand as a weapon to pierce it.
However, after all, she is a weak woman who is powerless, how can she beat a big man?
But suddenly, Qing Mu was grabbed by the guard's wrist.
She was in a hurry, and subconsciously shouted: "Green fragrance! β
Lu Xiang is also a clever person, and immediately used all the strength of his body to pounce on the whole person.
The small space in the carriage became even more crowded for a while.
The horses were frightened by the shaking of the three of them, and they galloped wildly.
Qing Mu and Lu Xiang were turned upside down, and almost all the internal organs were shaken out.
She heard the screams of passers-by in her ears, and was afraid that the carriage rushing into the crowd would bring immeasurable disaster, but she heard "Touch! There was a loud bang, and I don't know what it was hit, and the carriage stopped again.
Qing Mu finally sat up straight with the help of Lu Xiang, and was about to see what was going on, when he heard a nice voice outside the carriage say softly: "It's okay, please ask the county lord to move out of the car." β
It was a strange man's voice.
Qing Mu hesitated for a while, then slowly opened the curtain and got out of the car.
The carriage ran all the way back to Suzaku Street.
At this moment, she is standing under the Lingbo Building, a landmark building on Suzaku Street.
In front of the carriage, a young man in a moon-white robe with a handsome face was looking at her with a smile.
The man's hand was still tightly gripping the horse's reins, and next to him was a pile of struck goods.
I was amazed.
The carriage probably crashed into the wagon, but fortunately, the man was good and stopped the carriage from continuing to run forward in time.
Otherwise, she would probably be three points worse than this pile of smashed goods.
When others saved themselves, they should be grateful.
Qing Mu was about to open his mouth to thank him, but the guard on the side suddenly knelt down and said with a look of shame: "The subordinates are incompetent, and ask the master to surrender!" β
Qing Mu was shocked, and his eyes immediately changed when he looked at the man.
The man only glanced lightly at the guilty guard, and said nothing.
He turned his head, looked at Qing Mu with a smile and asked, "It's just to invite the county lord to enjoy a lantern, how did you make it look like this?" But what did Mo Bai do that made the county lord unhappy? β
Before Qing Mu could answer, he saw the man and said, "Since you have offended my distinguished guest, then you also know how to do it, right?" β
The man's voice landed, and Mo Bai immediately responded in a deep voice: "My subordinates understand!" β
With just a word, Mo Bai pulled out the saber from his waist, and in the next moment, he waved it towards his left hand without hesitation!
"Wait!"
Qing Mu suddenly screamed.
She looked at the man in front of her who seemed to be untouched by the blood with a suspicious expression, and said seriously: "I don't blame him for the matter of Fang Cai, it is the county lord's own problem." β
The man raised his eyebrows, his eyes slowly looked at Mo Bai's expressionless face, and asked, "This is true." β
Qing Mu knew that this Mo Bai was a dead-eyed fool, for fear that he would tell the truth, so he hurriedly replied: "Naturally, it's true!" β
The man chuckled, waved his hand at Mo Bai and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll spare you this time today, go down." β
When Mo Bai left, the man immediately regained his humble and polite appearance at the beginning, and said with a smile: "Today's incident frightened the county lord, and it was not well arranged. In the next house, a little wine and side dishes were prepared, and I hoped that the county lord would appreciate his face and give him a chance to make amends in the next one. β
Qing Mu sneered, shook the man's hand in the gesture of invitation, and asked sadly: "The son asked me to come, but he only pretended to be someone else's name." Not even a name was given. Now that the son is telling me to go with you like this, do you really think that I am a deep girl, I have never seen the world, and I don't even have a brain? β
As soon as she said this, the man was suddenly stunned.
He glanced at Qing Mu a little inexplicably, and at the end, he asked as if incredulous: "County Lord...... Don't recognize it? β
Qing Mu sneered: "I have never met my son, how can I recognize him?" β
She is indeed a little speechless, although this man is good-looking, he is slightly inferior to Mu Qi, as for this kind of superiority that the whole world wants to know you?
For narcissistic people, Qing Mu has always had no good feelings.
She glanced at the man with an unhappy face, and was about to leave, but saw that the man suddenly stepped forward again, and continued to ask with a smile: "The county lord doesn't know that tonight is my appointment?" β
Nonsense!
Qing Mu complained in her heart, she is a county lord, where can anyone please move?
She turned her head and just wanted to say a sarcastic sentence, but saw that the man took another step forward, pursed his lips and smiled: "The county lord is right, I really don't have any impression at all?" β
After three steps, Qing Mu had been forced by the man to retreat.
The man chuckled lightly and said slowly, "It doesn't seem that the county lord has no impression at all. Otherwise, what to do with such nervousness? β
After saying that, the man raised his eyebrows and smiled, and directly reached out to take Qing Mu into his arms.
Damn it!
Qing Mu scolded secretly, do all the NPCs in this game dare to tease players now?
She glared at the man viciously and said sharply, "Presumptuous! β
The man replied lightly: "What is the county lord doing so angry? Could it be that the center of the poke is in the center? β
Qing Mu crossed his eyebrows, his heart was annoyed, and he was about to reach out to push away the guy in front of him who looked like a prodigal son no matter how he looked, but at this time, he heard someone behind him laughing, and then a familiar voice floated into his ears.
"The county lord of Qingning is a distinguished guest of the palace tonight, the master is so good, he robbed the guests of the palace, but he didn't even say a word from the ward, don't you think something is wrong?"
Mu Qi walked past the Taishi and saw Mu Qi coming, the Taishi was just embarrassed: "Weichen doesn't know that the girl is the prince's guest, even if the prince is so, Weichen will retire." β
The prince didn't dare to continue to cause trouble, so he left in a hurry, and Qing Mu smiled slightly: "Thank you for the prince's rescue." β
Qing Mu's heart warmed, and then he shook his head, who knows what the hell Mu Qi is doing.
Thinking of this, she was really grateful in her heart, her face flushed, and she chuckled: "Prince, thank you!" β
After speaking, he turned around and walked to the depths of the ten-mile peach forest, looking at the peach blossoms blooming all over the mountains, and at this moment, he was in a comfortable mood, and for a while, it seemed that Qingmu felt that he had returned to the innocent era.
Mu Qi looked at the smiling and beautiful Qingmu, dancing in the peach forest, watching stupidly, staying in place, and then remembering what she had done before.
"County Lord, County Lord!" Suddenly, Lu Xiang hurriedly ran over and shouted at Qing Mu.
Qing Mu raised her eyes to look at Lu Xiang, and asked a little confused: "Lu Xiang, what's wrong?" β
Lu Xiang ran over to Qing Mu and Mu Qi, and wanted to blurt out, but when she saw Yuan Wang Mu Qi, she was embarrassed, and bowed forward and bowed: "Meet the prince!" β
Mu Qi waved his hand and smiled: "Get up, don't be polite!" β
"What's the matter?" Qing Mu asked again.
Lu Xiang looked at Qing Mu, then at Mu Qi, and was embarrassed: "This ......"
Qing Mu smiled faintly: "Luxiang, let's say it, it's okay to let him know." β
Lu Xiang nodded slowly: "County Lord, just now in the mansion, I overheard that Peach Blossom reported to the second aunt about the second son, he seems to be in the Zuiyue Building, meeting some important guests, Peach Blossom went to find him, and they were all blasted out." β
"Is there such a thing? Luxiang, you heard it right! Qing Mu asked suspiciously.
"I'm sure I heard it right, county lord, haven't you always suspected that the robbers who kidnapped us last time were instructed by the second lady and the second son, should we go over and see if it has anything to do with this matter?" Green fragrance back.
"Okay, I know, Luxiang, you go back to King Yi's Mansion first, remember to pretend that you don't know anything!" Qing Mu explained seriously.
"County Lord, don't you need Luxiang to accompany you?" Luxiang asked confusedly.
Qing Mu chuckled: "Our prince is here, don't worry about my safety, you go back first!" β
"Okay!" Lu Xiang said, glanced at Qing Mu, and looked at Mu Qi, the king of Yuan, bowed down, and turned to leave.
After Lu Xiang left, Qing Mu looked at Mu Qi and smiled: "Prince, are you free?" β
When Mu Qi heard this, goosebumps jumped up all over his body: "You woman, what kind of moth are you playing, if you really want to be so close, you might as well call this king Aqi, I'll say it first, Qingmu." β
