Volume 1: A Scene of Glitz Covering the Eyes Chapter 31: Whip Scars
The two secret guards sent by the emperor to help Mu Jiu came over early in the morning, one was called Moshu and the other was called Mozhu, both of whom were first-class masters.
The temperament of the whole body has the coldness unique to the dark guard, and there are not many words, both of them are dressed in black, and it is very obvious that they are standing in this courtyard.
"Two adults, we adults have been tired in prison for the past few days, and we haven't gotten up yet."
The two secret guards glanced at each other, and then Mo Zhu spoke: "I will wait for the emperor's order to protect the safety of the adults, since the adults are resting, we will wait." ”
The two men looked well-trained, and after saying this, they left in unison.
Xiao Dezi walked to Xiao Xuan's side with the hot medicine in his hand, and said in a chattering voice: "What do you say to protect adults, this clear-eyed person knows that he is spying on adults." ”
When Xiao Xuan heard this, a hairy chestnut hit Xiao Dezi's brain.
"Ouch, what are you hitting me for?"
"Let you not keep the door on your mouth, fry your medicine."
Xiao Xuan's mouth is tighter than Xiao Dezi's, and his eyes are one more than Xiao Dezi's, so he pays more attention to everything and observes more.
Xiao Dezi was aggrieved and held the medicine in his hand: "The medicine is fried according to the instructions of the Imperial Doctor." ”
"Then you won't bring it in to the adults."
Luo Mo happened to come over at this moment, and he also held a bowl of black and viscous medicine in his hand, and then pushed open the door and entered.
Mu Jiu hadn't woken up yet, so Mo looked at the bed and said to Xiao Dezi: "You go out, it's good for adults to have me here." ”
"Then what else do you have to say, just say, I'm outside."
"Okay, you go out."
Luo Mo looked at the person sleeping quietly on the bed, and his heart was happy, and there was a trace of heat in his eyes that he had never noticed.
He walked slowly to the edge of the bed, lifted the green silk veil, and placed the ointment in his hand on the table beside the low couch.
Mu Jiu's face, neck, and exposed arms were all covered with whip marks, and Mo Mo's gaze went down his neck.....
He suddenly felt that he was extremely dirty, and immediately he had no distractions in his heart, and began to apply plasters to Mu Jiu's arm.
Mu Jiu felt that someone was touching her in a daze, and woke up vaguely, and saw that Yan Mo was seriously medicating the scars on her arms, and couldn't help blushing.
Luo Mo's movements were very light, as if he was touching some great treasure, his fingertips were warm, and it seemed to have magical power, Mu Jiu felt that the injuries on his body were not so painful.
"What kind of medicine is this, it looks so ugly, it looks cool when you apply it."
This medicine is really ugly, black and has no appearance, but it is a really good medicine, it is the high-grade white pulp purchased by Luo Mo in the folk medicine workshop, which can make the skin smooth and better than snow.
And Mu Jiu has a lot of scars on his body, and this bowl of medicine cost a lot of silver.
And if this goes on for a long time, it will cost a lot of holes in the silver.
"This is the medicine I gave you, and scar removal is the best. You are beautiful, but you can't leave a scar on your body. ”
This seemed to be unintentional, but Mu Jiu's heart was a little happy, this person was praising himself for his good looks.
Ordinary people praise themselves for being good-looking, but Mu Jiu doesn't have this feeling of joy in his heart, thinking of this, Mu Jiu doesn't know why his face is red again, and he lowers his head and doesn't speak.
"You've been asleep for a long time, you're hungry, I'll let Xiao Dezi bring you medicinal food."
Mu Jiu nodded lightly, trying to support himself but fell back weakly.
"Little Dezi, bring the medicinal food on the stove, the adults have already woken up."
Luo Mo walked to the door, and after he finished speaking, he saw that the two secret guards were still waiting outside, but he chose not to tell Mu Jiu.
"My lord, the medicinal diet is ready."
Xiao Dezi came in with medicinal food, and said quickly: "My lord, the emperor has sent two secret guards in Tibetan clothes, and they say that they are protecting your safety." ”
Mu Jiu was going to take medicinal food, but when he heard this, his lips burned.
"What about them?"
"I've been waiting outside, I've been waiting all morning. You haven't been disturbed since you rested. ”
Mu Jiu nodded to himself: "Oh, let them in, I have something to tell them to do." ”
Xiao Dezi's legs and feet were fast, and he went out numbly, and he twisted his eyebrows solemnly, and his tone aggravated unhappily: "Your injuries are not healed, it is important for you to recuperate first." Anxious to see what the guards were doing. ”
"No, I can't wait, if I see them again after I recover from my injuries, it'll be too late."
"Subordinate ink book, subordinate ink bamboo, I have seen adults."
The two of them were wrapped in coldness, Mu Jiu sighed that it was indeed the dark guard trained by the dragon general at night, and his breath was cold and terrifying, and he was a first-class master at a glance.
"Excuse me, get up."
"Imperial Doctor, you go out first, I have something to explain to them."
There was some displeasure on Luo Mo's face, but after all, he still raised his feet and walked out, and all of a sudden there were only Mu Jiu and the two secret guards left in the room.
The three men closed the door and talked for a moment, and soon they went down after receiving their orders.
After the person left, Luo Mo came in, but the displeasure on his face was very obvious, Mu Jiu didn't know why he was unhappy when he saw Luo Mo, and he felt a little uneasy.
Seeing that Luo Mo walked in slowly, he asked tentatively, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Did the emperor ask you to do something? Will there be any danger? ”
Mu Jiu sighed helplessly: "It's nothing, I can't go out here, what danger can I have, the emperor's orders, someone will run errands for me, I'm fine." ”
"It's okay if you're fine, your injuries are not healed, and the emperor doesn't want you to rest and rest, he has so many capable people, why do you always tell you to do things."
This was quite a complaint, Mu Jiu hurriedly signaled him not to continue, in case this word reached the emperor's ears, the perverted man was probably going to start rectifying people again.
"I'm fine, it's good that you help me, otherwise I'll really be struggling in the palace."
"I ......"
Mu Jiu was about to say something more, but Xiao Dezi walked in and said that Doctor Zhang from the Tai Hospital had something to do with Tuomo and asked Tuomo to go back early.
"You go back early, you've been in Muyu Pavilion all morning, it's not good to be derelict in your duties like this."
"But your wounds ......"
"It's okay, you give me the medicine, I can do it myself."
As he spoke, Mu Jiu had already taken the medicine from Luo Mo's hand and gave him a reassuring smile.
Everyone went out, Mu Jiu got up in a loose undershirt, slowly paced in front of the bronze mirror, and carefully looked at his body in the bronze mirror.
There were whip marks on her slender neck, chest, abdomen, legs, and all over her body, and the blood stains were scabbed, crisscrossing Mu Jiu's body one by one, in stark contrast to her white skin.
There was nothing in front, Mu Jiu could touch it himself, but the scars on his back when he threw the whip, Mu Jiu had no way to apply the medicine.
She didn't want to give it to others, so she let the wound on her back scab over on its own, forming maroon wounds.
It doesn't matter if you don't loosen your clothes and untie them, others don't know, but the hideous scar on your face is very obvious on Mu Jiu's delicate and white side face.
After applying the medicine, Mu Jiu felt even more tired, so he nested on the bed for a whole afternoon in the cold of early spring, and the sky quickly became dark and dark, and Xiao Xuan came in with dinner.
Mu Jiu has something hidden in his heart, and the meal has not been very fragrant, and he seems to have endless sorrow.
"What's wrong with you, sir? This is a medicinal diet specially ordered by Imperial Physician to boil, which is the best way to replenish your body. ”
"Hmm."
Mu Jiu had a dull face and was not interested.
"What's wrong with you, my lord, since you woke up today, you've been wrinkling your eyebrows, is there anything unpleasant?"
Mu Jiu glanced at Xiao Xuan when he heard this, and then summoned him to his side.
"Little Xuanzi, you say, is Qing Yu staying in the boudoir now waiting to get married?"
"That's not it, Qing Yu is valued by General Xie, and she is about to be accepted as a righteous daughter, and when the time comes, she will become the righteous sister of the queen's mother, and marry the king of Beiding as a side concubine, and the Xie family will rise again."
Xiao Xuan's words seemed to have been brewed a long time ago, just waiting for Mu Jiu to ask, and Balala said a lot.
"Yes, under such circumstances, how could Qing Yu give up her identity as the righteous daughter of the Xie family and be willing to be a concubine in the palace."
Mu Jiu's muttering voice was very small, even if Xiao Xuan was standing next to Mu Jiu, he didn't hear it clearly.
"What do you say, my lord?"
"Oh, it's nothing, I ask you, if it's you, you can change from an adopted daughter to a righteous daughter in a month, and then marry into the palace as a righteous daughter and become a noble side concubine. Are you willing to wait? ”
"That's natural, everyone is willing to wait."
This is also true, if she is Qing Yu, don't say that she can become the queen's righteous sister after waiting for a month, even if she waits for a year, she is also willing to wait.
It may be nothing for others, but for Qing Yu, who has no parents since she was a child, Qing Yu is reluctant to give up the identity of the righteous daughter of the Xie family.
And what this adopted daughter said is not good, but it is just a person who eats idle, and it is not linked to the interests and power of the Xie family, so the righteous daughter is different.
And Qing Yu is about to marry the prominent prince of a country, with the strong Xie family as the backing, and he can be a man in the palace.
If there is no Xie family as a backing, then the treatment in the palace will be far worse.
"Yes, it's impossible not to wait for Qing Gardenia." Mu Jiu shook his head and began to talk to himself again.
Comparing the inside and outside here, I always feel that this is an impossible thing, and my head hurts a little when I think about it, and I haven't come up with any effective way yet.
At this time, Mozhu came back, Xiao Xuan retreated with great vision, and then closed the door considerately.
"My lord, the emperor has been arranging along the line in the Xie Mansion, and his subordinates also went over to inquire this afternoon, and I heard that now the old Duke Xie and General Xie in the Xie Mansion are preparing the dowry of Qing Yu. And Qing Yu has changed his name, and his name is Xie Qing Yu. ”
Mu Jiu furrowed his brows when he heard this, how good is this.
This is obviously an arrow that has to be sent on the string, how can I obstruct it.
The emperor really put the thorny problem into her hands.
"Yes, it's already called Xie Qingyi, it's so good."
"But the subordinates also inquired about something, and the subordinates thought it was a little strange."
"Oh, what's weird?" As soon as Mu Jiuyi heard something strange, he guessed that things might take a turn for the better.
