As soon as he "Teng", Mo Jin's face turned red.

"Mom! Even the way he eats looks so good! Mo Jin couldn't control and roared wildly in his heart.

It's a strange creature, anyway, that's what Mo Jin thinks.

Before she didn't know Won Lie's true appearance, she felt that the mask gave her the best cover, she could do whatever she wanted in front of Won Lie, anyway, with the mask in it, she could comfort herself that they were not familiar.

But now, when Yuan Lie really took off his mask, Mo Jin felt that he couldn't get up anywhere, and it seemed that it was wrong to even breathe loudly, the two were obviously very familiar, but she felt as if she had just met, and her hair was reserved.

She finally saw the true face of Yuan Lie's Lushan, she was happy, she was excited, and she was almost faint.

"You, would you like some more jerky?" Mo Jin's tongue was knotted.

Yuan Lie shook his head, stretched out his five fingers and shook them in front of her eyes, and quipped: "Is there anything uncomfortable about the princess, why are your eyes straight?" ”

What else can I do, being handsome by you, Mo Jin smiled on his face, and replied shyly in his heart.

Her abnormality continued until Won Yeol put the mask on again.

When Yuan Lie returned to her former appearance, Mo Jin actually felt relieved, but when she got on the horse again and was hugged by Yuan Lie in his arms, the whole person became extremely stiff.

Walking all the way to the east, when the sunset ended, the two saw the smoke rising from a short distance, a thatched house, like a shadow among the trees.

"Wang ...... Lord Wang," Mo Jin said.

"Huh?" The low-magnetic voice sounded in his ears with great destructiveness, and thinking of the handsome face he saw at noon, Mo Jin felt that he was going to have a nosebleed.

But she still stabilized her mind and asked, "If the concubine wants to get off the horse and walk over?" ”

She was tense in Yuan Lie's arms all afternoon, she had already had back pain and leg cramps, and she didn't want to stay on horseback for a second longer.

"Okay."

As soon as the words fell, Yuan Lie grabbed the reins, and with a "huh-" sound, the horse stopped moving forward.

Before Mo Jin could react, he hugged her slender waist, jumped off the horse, and landed firmly on the ground.

"Does the princess have an ointment that can be disguised?"

Mo Jin, who was still moving his muscles and bones, suddenly heard this sentence, his whole body stiffened, and then quickly returned to normal, and nodded unwillingly.

She actually didn't want to give this "face cream" to Yuan Lie, but she understood that his silver mask was too distinctive, and there was no second person in the entire Lanhai Kingdom to wear it, and the people of the world might not know what the emperor's name was, but they must know that the person who wore this kind of mask was called Yuan Lie, and he was a ghost king who killed people without blinking.

If they want to spend the night here disguised as civilians, they must be disguised.

"There is nothing special about this medicine, just take an appropriate amount and apply it to the face, it will not hurt the skin, and it will not fall off when you wash your face under normal conditions." After handing the "face change cream" to Yuan Lie, Mo Jin led the horse and walked in front, leaving enough time for Yuan Lie to apply the ointment.

Of course, she didn't want to see Wonyeol's handsome, almost demonic face again, because that would only make her look like a pervert.

But after a while, Yuan Lie quickly followed, and as a result, Mo Jin took the reins in his hand and personally led the horse.

Mo Jin turned his head to look at him, and sure enough, the effect was exactly the same as that of her use, his face was sallow, his face was vegetable, although his facial features were still delicate when he looked closely, but the overall look was completely oblivion.

Yuan Lie even carefully took off the golden crown and replaced it with a wooden hairpin that was probably just sharpened, and in recent days, he seemed to have a premonition, and when he left the Qinglong Pass, he no longer wore fancy clothes, and now it seems that he really looks like an authentic civilian.

It would be even more perfect if he could hide the innate nobility around him a little more.

Seeing Mo Jin staring at his hair, he smiled, "When you go out, your wealth is not exposed, and you have to guard against people." ”

In fact, Mo Jin doesn't think so, although even if others have any bad intentions, it may not be able to beat Yuan Lie.

The reason why he did this should be to avoid unnecessary trouble, and if others don't have bad intentions, they will naturally not conflict with him, let alone be killed by him.

So, is this the hidden kindness of His Royal Highness King Yi?

Like travelers wading through mountains and rivers, the two led their horses slowly to the thatched hut, and saw an old man in his fifties, dressed in a sackcloth cardigan, chopping wood in the courtyard, and the setting sun sprinkled on him, refracting the sweat on his head.

Not far away, an old woman in a turban who looked to be in her fifties was "clucking" to summon the chickens while sprinkling grain in the courtyard.

On the other side of the small courtyard, there is a small vegetable garden, which is full of all kinds of red, yellow and emerald green that you know or don't know about Mojin, which looks particularly vivid.

The scene in front of him has the tranquility and tranquility of Tao Yuanming's pen "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and leisurely seeing Nanshan", and the day's hard work has been relaxed at this moment, and Mo Jin is a little reluctant to break this peace.

It was Yuan Lie who took the lead and shouted into the courtyard: "Uncle, aunt, there is a lot of trouble. ”

When the two old men heard the voice, they looked at the two outside the fence, their eyes full of doubt.

It is indeed surprising that there are still outsiders in this barren mountain and wild land.

"Xiaosheng accompanied his wife home to save relatives, unfortunately encountered a bandit on the way, and escaped by luck, but was injured and lost, I don't know if I can spend the night in your place." Yuan Lie looked deeply at the two old men, and his tone was elegant and calm, like a scholar.

Mo Jin also hurriedly followed and saluted.

The aunt who fed the chickens was the first to react, Xu is naturally hospitable, and Yuan Lie and Mo Jin looked pure and thoughtful, so they naturally had a good impression and immediately beckoned their old man to get up and open the courtyard door to greet him.

"This descendant, where are you from, and where are you going?" The uncle who chopped wood had a little bit of an eye and inquired at the two.

Yuan Lie made another move, neither humble nor arrogant: "Xiaosheng is a person from Chouzhou, surnamed Bai, living in Wulikou in the west of the city, and his family has been doing business for generations, and Humble Jing is a person from Yunzhou, surnamed Cheng. ”

The uncle asked casually, not expecting Yuan Lie to be able to say it clearly, but seeing that he was sincere and sincere now, he also believed what he said, besides, he and his boss had never been out of this deep mountain in their lives, even if Yuan Lie said it specifically, he had no way to verify it.

The visitor is the guest, and since the door was opened to receive the two, the old couple did their best to prepare.

After packing up the spare house, the aunt came to beckon the two to go in and put their luggage, and after thanking them, they tied the horse to a mulberry tree in front of the courtyard gate, under which fertile grass grew.

When Yuan Yeol took the luggage off the horse, he limped towards the house under Mo Jin's surprised eyes.

Seeing that he was injured, the enthusiastic old couple hurriedly picked herbs and chickens, and were busy with the heat.

"Lord Wang, your leg?" Not really......

Seeing Mo Jin looking at him with complicated eyes, Yuan Lie hooked the corners of his lips and explained, "If not, how can we dispel their doubts?" ”

Mo Jin shrugged her shoulders and didn't answer, letting Yuan Yeol rest in the house by herself, while she ran to the kitchen to help her aunt cook on the fire.

After nibbling on dry food for a day, she now desperately hopes for some hot soup to nourish her stomach.

Seeing that Mo Jin was going to help, the enthusiastic aunt didn't stop her, so she sent her to light the fire.

"Auntie, are you and Uncle living here?" Mo Jin asked as he craned his neck while adding firewood to the stove.

The aunt was meeting, and after hearing Mo Jin's question, she smiled kindly, "Almost, my son and daughter-in-law also lived with us in the past, but then I felt that the house was small, and after having a grandson, they moved to the town twenty miles away, and came back to see us once a month." ”

"Then why don't you go to town with them?"

Auntie smiled and shook her head, "How can there be such a good place in the town, there are mountains, rivers and flowers, and besides, I am used to living here with your uncle, so I am at ease!" ”

Mo Jin thought about it and felt that it was also, under the condition of eating and drinking, she was also willing to come to live in this beautiful place.

Or, if you leave the capital in the future, you can also find a place with mountains and rivers to build a house, raise a few domestic servants, go out to the mountains to buy once a month, and spend the rest of the time in the mountains to see the mountains, see the fog, and watch the flowers bloom.

"Girl, how long have you been married?" Aunt looked at her with a smile.

"Huh? That, haha," Mo Jin smiled dryly, "two months." ”

"No wonder, I'll just say, you two still look polite, not at all like a couple who have been married for many years."

Mo Jin had no choice but to nod yes.

"But, girl, wow," the aunt looked like she knew it well, and said with a smile, "You believe in the aunt, your father-in-law will be good to you in the future, he looks at you with that look, he is happy, I can see it!" ”

Mo Jin: "......"

Auntie, aren't you dizzy? How did Yuan Yeol's cold eyes that looked at everyone be misinterpreted by you into joy? Mo Jin complained frantically in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face.

When the old man picked the herbs back, the local chicken in the pot was also stewed, and the four steamed buns were served with local chicken soup, and after eating a meal that was not sumptuous but satisfying, Yuan Lie even talked to the old man about homely things, and drank several cups of the farmer's home-brewed grain wine.

Ever since he took off his mask, Mo Jin felt that Yuan Yeol seemed to be different from before, as if he had changed his personality, becoming enthusiastic, smiling, and even full of fireworks.

He is no longer the ghost king who can deter the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty with just one look, and he is not the Yuan Lie who can even scare children to cry when he mentions his name, he is no longer an iceberg that rejects people thousands of miles away.

He is now more like a living person than before.

Mo Jin felt that maybe this was the real Yuan Yeol, the mask not only covered his face, but also his soul, and now, taking off the mask, it was like taking off the shackles, and he regained his freedom and warmth.

This cognition made Mo Jin feel a little panicked, not for any other reason, she just felt that such a good character, coupled with such a face that brought disaster to the country and the people, such a Yuan Lie, she was afraid that she would not be able to control it!

After dark, the old couple went to bed early, Mo Jin wiped Yuan Lie's body and re-medicated, he also went to the yard to fetch water and wash, and when he came back, he counted the salute again, and found out the clothes that the two of them were going to change tomorrow, when she finished all this, and when she turned back, she found that Yuan Lie was sitting on the edge of the bed and looking at her fixedly.

For a while, Mo Jin remembered what the aunt said when the fire was burning during the day, "He looked at you with joy", and his heart suddenly beat like a drum, and he didn't dare to look at him anymore.

She saw it just now, and there was no joy in her eyes at all!

The two had shared the same bed together for several days before, so Mo Jin didn't twist in the slightest, and climbed into bed generously and lay down inside.

Suddenly, she heard Yuan Lie seem to laugh, and Mo Jin looked at him with some puzzlement.

"This king didn't expect that the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion would be handy in doing these rough work, and now that I think about it, this king should have married an omnipotent princess." Wonyeol also lay down on the pillow.

Mo Jin pursed his lips, cut, you want to work as an aunt, if it weren't for seeing that you were an injured person, this girl wouldn't be too lazy to serve you!

"Lord Wang, shouldn't we go to Luzhou like this?" Two people and one horse, sleeping in the open.

Although the scenery along the way is great, it's desperate to think about.

Now that they have completely thrown off their pursuers, there should be no more killers chasing them in the rear, but there are still countless waves in front of them.

"Don't you like it?" Wonyeol turned his head sideways to look at her.

Mo Jinpi smiled and said, "I don't like it, it hurts to ride a horse." ”

Seeing Yuan Lie looking at her like a novelty, Mo Jin realized that he had just said something that everyone should not say, which was really unelegant.

She turned her head as if nothing had happened, looked at the top of the bed tent, and pretended nothing had happened.

Yuan Lie finally couldn't hold back, laughed loudly, and after a while, he said, "I like it a lot." ”

When he said the word "like", he bit very hard, and when he heard it in Mo Jin's ears, he always felt that there was something else, in order to hide his nervousness, she muttered "The concubine fell asleep first", and turned her back to Yuan Lie.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Yeol raised his hand in the direction of the table, and the oil lamp on the table was instantly extinguished by his powerful internal energy.

A room of darkness and calm.

The next day, without any accidents, Mo Jin still woke up in Yuan Yeol's arms. Once raw and twice cooked, this has been several times, and the two are naturally used to it, but the awkward atmosphere is always there.

After breakfast, Yuan Lie helped the old man chop all the firewood, which made the old man happy, because if he wanted to chop the firewood himself, he wouldn't be able to finish chopping it for at least three days.

Mo Jin helped the aunt water the vegetable garden and feed the chickens again, and the old couple now saw these two young people more and more happy, and insisted on killing another chicken to make up for Yuan Lie's body.

Of course, he stopped him.

In the old man's puzzled eyes, Yuan Lie pointed to a place not far outside the courtyard, and said with a polite smile: "The servant who picked up Xiaosheng and the lady is here, thank you for your hospitality." ”

The old man was obviously a little stunned.

Mo Jin looked in the direction pointed by Yuan Lie, and sure enough, more than a dozen secret guards were riding respectfully on their horses, led by Qingfeng.

Since this was the case, Mo Jin had no choice but to quickly get into the house, pack all the luggage, and then carry it out, and after saying goodbye to the two old men, he walked out of the yard hand in hand with Yuan Lie.

"Lord Wang, how did they find you?" Before being carried on the horse by Yuan Lie, Mo Jin finally asked the doubts in his heart.

Yuan Lie, who put on the mask again, also turned over and got on the horse, and said with a smile: "This king has a thousand miles of tracking incense on his body. ”

After the group completely disappeared from sight, the old couple retracted their reluctant gaze and entered the house.

"Old man!" The aunt who went to clean up the house suddenly burst out with a loud scream, and the old man rushed into the house after hearing it, only to see his wife holding a silver ticket in her hand, and she was speechless with excitement.

The old man took the silver ticket and looked at it, one hundred taels.

From the moment he put on the mask, Mo Jin felt that Yuan Lie seemed to have returned to his previous state of indifference and silence, high above and inviolable.

Although a lot of people were broken in the battle the night before, and less than 100 of the 200 people remained, the fortunate thing in the misfortune was that Nangong Yu and Mo Jin's two personal maids were fine, and the large number of medicinal materials transported from the capital were also intact.

After a group of people converged, they marched towards Luzhou again.

This time, Yuan Lie ordered the team to speed up, and he simply reduced the originally estimated time by half, but despite this, he still encountered more and more ferocious kills on the road.

Thinking that the other party saw that they were about to arrive in Luzhou, they were completely anxious.

This journey has been much harder than imagined. Although Mo Jin had been mentally prepared, but after days of frightening and non-stop bumps day and night, when she arrived in Luzhou, she described that she had lost a lot of weight.

Fortunately, her body is not weak, and she is protected by Yuan Lie and his party, so she is not sick or injured.

It's just that now that I think about it, after getting lost with Yuan Lie that day, I accidentally walked into the half-day pastoral life of a thatched hut in the mountains, which is very pleasant and nostalgic.

Not far away, the tall and sturdy city walls of Luzhou City were already in sight, and it was only at this time that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though at least half of the people who assassinated them before were inseparable from the officials in Luzhou, now that they have come to Luzhou alive, those with crooked thoughts dare not continue to do it.

After all, Yuan Lie and his entourage died on the road and died on the border of Luzhou, which is a completely different concept, the former can rely on natural disasters and man-made disasters, and it is a big deal to catch a few waves of thieves to set the top bag, and the latter, if the dignified prince and princess died in the jurisdiction of a certain official, then, even if he is hard in the background, it will be difficult to escape the nine clans.

Therefore, since the officials of Luzhou received the news that Yuan Lie and his party were coming, no matter whether they were happy or not, they all waited at the city gate according to the highest etiquette.

Mo Jin opened the carriage curtain and looked at it, the weather was sunny, the wind was smooth, and Luzhou City under the blue sky and white clouds looked quiet and stable.

But this scene not only did not make her feel at ease at all, but even frowned unconsciously, looked back at Yuan Lie, who was closing his eyes behind him, and just wanted to speak, Yuan Lie spoke before her: "The princess wants to say, it looks wrong, right?" ”

His voice was languid, but it also had the calmness and composure of the world.

Mo Jin nodded, and said with a worried expression: "Luzhou has suffered such a big disaster, it stands to reason that it should be starving all over the land, mourning all over the wilderness, although the concubine is willing to see this scene, but it will never be as peaceful as it is now, and there is not even a disaster victim at the gate of the city." ”

Even if the officials of Luzhou City deliberately dispersed the victims in order to welcome Yuan Lie and his party, they should not have seen none of them all along the way.

Yuan Lie hooked the corners of his lips, and said with a smile: "Since they can't stop this king, those unsightly things will definitely be hidden in the future, as long as this king can't find out anything this time, they can sit back and relax." ”

"So, what does the prince mean is that this time, it's hard for us to see some real things?" Mo Jin thinks it's incredible, this is a natural disaster and not anything else, can it be hidden?

Yuan Lie finally opened his eyes when he heard this, and there was a faint and unknown light flashing inside, "They are working so hard, it's just that they are afraid that some things will see the light, these things are not only related to the black gauze hat on their heads, but also involve many interests, how can you say they don't want to do everything they can to cover up?" ”

Mo Jin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yuan Lie waving his hand, "The princess should have a good rest in Luzhou City these two days, because the next thing we have to face is far more than just natural disasters." ”

At that time, Mo Jin didn't understand what Yuan Lie's sentence "far more than a natural disaster" meant, but two days later, she understood.

Not only did she understand, she was also very angry!

Since entering Luzhou City, the local officials have done their best to take all the antique treasures and silk satin that can be collected to honor Yuan Lie and Mo Jin and his party, in the face of such extravagant style, Wang Ye Yi didn't say anything, all the orders were collected, they should eat and drink, it seems that they are not here for disaster relief, but as if they are here for vacation.

They were arranged to live in the annex in front of the prefect Ding Xi, where there were garden rockeries and hot spring gardens. From morning to night, there was an endless stream of officials who came to visit, and since two days after entering the city, Mo Jin was stunned that she didn't even step out of the gate of the other garden, which was really as Yuan Lie said, she could have a good rest.
