Chapter 5 The Twin Trees Are Stunned
The willow tops on the moon, the starry sky is covered with the moon, the spring breeze is hundreds of miles, the fragrance is far overflowing, the aroma of osmanthus is sweet and mellow into the wine, but it makes people drunk before they drink a glass. The girl in the house, with bright teeth and bright lips, if she sees the peach in March, it will not be called a premature escape, and it will be scorching.
"Miss, are you ready?"
The moment Mu Ruoying stepped out of the house, all the people in the courtyard held their breath and stood still, as if they didn't believe that the woman was the second Miss Mu Fufu who was only willing to show her face before. The girl's white skin is matched with the bewitching robe, and the colors of the world are lost, leaving only that touch of red, standing proudly in the wind and dust, strolling and giving birth to flowers. The pearl and amber on the waist swirled and swayed with the wind that sneaked out of the window to explore the world, the stars in the sky turned and fell, and the stars swayed. The eyes are circulating, but they are not as dull as the disguise, and they are sultry and provocative.
"Miss... You're so beautiful. ”
Ling Er was stunned on the spot, and said her praise for Mu Ruoying in a sluggish tone, which was a little more envious. What girl doesn't love fancy decorations? It's just that Mu Ruoying can't hold these empty things in her heart, and this set of clothes is just one more thing for outsiders to know herself and be appreciated by the emperor and General Chu. Thinking about it this way, Mu Ruoying ridiculed this world, women are like objects, and they need exquisite packaging before they are sold. And themselves... It's just that beautifully packaged item.
In the distance, in the car of Mu Jinghong, the black dragon and feather phoenix stand proudly in the clouds, looking at the frenzy sleeves of the mountains and rivers, and the whole body is inlaid with gold wire edges. Since ancient times, only the emperor can embroider the dragon and phoenix gods on the chariot frame and dragon robe, and the new emperor's court clothes are not outlined with all gold threads, it seems that Mu Jinghong's status can be so unscrupulous.
Mu Ruoying walked into Mu Jinghong's car, Mu Jingfei and He Xiyou's eyes were full of hostility and unwillingness towards Mu Ruoying, like a clown who was uneasy to hide his grievances, and he couldn't show anything except the hatred in his eyes. Mu Ruoying was still so well-behaved, sitting next to Mu Jinghong, as if nothing had happened today, but she deliberately stayed away from Mu Jingfei, intending to remind Mu Jinghong that his eldest daughter had beaten Mu Ruoying in front of a full house of guests this evening, and now, he was looking at her as a victim with murderous intent.
"Mu Jingfei, you'd better give me some peace. Don't disgrace me again, today you will sit obediently in that place, without saying a word, if you do anything out of the ordinary, your mother will not be able to protect you. ”
Mu Jinghong looked at Mu Jingfei angrily, threatening the daughter he had spoiled since childhood. The image of a loving father can no longer be contained, and the vicious and cold-blooded is the real him, exposed in this small carriage.
"Father... Father. You've never been so fierce with Fei'er. ”
"Mu Jinghong, don't go too far. I don't usually eat too much with Fei'er. It's your other daughter who is really vicious. What do you think she can do for you in exchange for frontier peace? Or sell women for glory? ”
He Xiyou sat opposite Mu Jinghong, thinking about enduring this breath, the events of the afternoon were caused by Mu Jingfei's stupidity, and she would not vent her resentment and hatred in her heart, but Mu Jinghong's cruel and ruthless words seemed to see through her discussion with Fei'er and go to envelop Chu Lingran. Of course, if this was the case, Mu Jinghong would not have objected, today's banquet, all forces gathered, and the daughters of some status in the capital were all going to the crown princess and Chu Lingran. But Mu Jinghong knew in her heart that He Xiyou couldn't sit still, and she hoped to consolidate her position in the Mu Mansion through Mu Jingfei and be a hostess with military power.
"You know best what you are calculating. The person Chu Lingran can really look at will never be Fei'er, you should die of this heart as soon as possible. ”
Mu Jinghong's sentence is not very clever, in the afternoon, he also coaxed Mu Ruoying to participate in today's celebration, and the beautiful name is that Mu Ruoying will choose a husband in the future, and he is not in a hurry, just wait and see. Now this sentence can be heard by a fool, Mu Jinghong is going to sell himself and seek Chu Lingran's submission.
Mu Ruoying nested in the corner of the carriage and didn't say anything, looking at the corners of the mouths of the three people in the four directions, the people's hearts are not ancient, they pretend to be honest and excellent, the image of a courtier who is loyal to the country, a docile and beautiful woman, and a virtuous and dignified first-class lady, now they show their faces for the interests of their own nothingness and no certainty, but it makes the road to the palace a little more laughingstock, and it is not very lonely.
But the people of the world mistakenly think that they are smart enough to dominate the world, how do they know that a general who fights for his life on the battlefield will be attracted to this woman by abandoning all his glory and wealth? Chu Lingran is by no means an idle person, if it is said that the capital is about to fall apart, then Mu Ruoying secretly thinks in her heart that she must have something to do with Chu Lingran.
Mu Jingfei thought that she was beautiful and came out of the city, but in the end it was just a dream, and now she is all over the capital, and no one knows her femme fatale. But He Xiyou has been lonely and arrogant all his life, but he has not received the slightest care from his husband. In the end, they have been sleeping in the same bed for decades, but they are just planning separately, and there is no way out. And Mu Jinghong, who thought that he was powerful in the world, would one day be able to ascend to the throne, dreaming of winning over the frontier, but he didn't know Chu Lingran's lofty plans at all.
Thinking about this, Mu Ruoying became more and more curious about Chu Lingran. In today's capital, who doesn't have a trace of curiosity about this hero who has killed thousands of miles of enemies and fought on the battlefield? Even the topics and faces of the three people in the car were raised by Chu Lingran, a strange man.
As Mu Jinghong got out of the carriage and became a harmonious father of the country, the two daughters stood obediently behind and followed the footsteps of their parents, what a harmonious family. Mu Ruoying didn't do anything, but the carriage ushered in everyone's discussions, and Mu Jingfei, who was standing next to her, looked more and more ugly, but she had nowhere to attack, as long as she gritted her teeth and strode forward.
"Don't be complacent, Mu Ruoying. Whether it is the current prince or Chu Lingran, he will not marry a concubine as a wife, and my mother will never let you go out of the door of the Mu Mansion in a beautiful manner, and it is not known who will be the laughing stock of the world at that time. ”
Mu Jingfei whispered in Mu Ruoying's ear in a very small voice, others seemed to be just the two sisters' indefinite expectations for the glory of the palace, only Mu Ruoying heard it clearly, and the cold words behind Mu Jingfei's back.
Even when she arrived at the palace, in fact, from the first step of Mu Ruoying's foot in the carriage, Mu Ruoying threw away the timid appearance that she had pretended to be for more than ten years, her eyes were bright and firm, her steps were light and charming, she wanted everyone in the world to see clearly who was the beauty of the northern country, peerless and independent.
"Sister, what is there to expect from this, who is the number one laughing stock in the capital, my sister can't hear it the most."
Mu Ruoying turned her head to meet Mu Jingfei's eyes, and pretended to be well-behaved and cowardly when handing out water.
"You... You fell on purpose. ”
Mu Jingfei looked at the innocent face, and the person she hated the most was wearing the banquet dress that she had carefully prepared for three months, the hatred in her heart could no longer be disguised, and her gloomy face seemed to tear Mu Ruoying apart.
"Sister, pay attention, don't let people find out that you are not a gentle and kind person again, pretend... You have to pretend to be smart. Mu Jingfei, what do you say? ”
Mu Ruoying finally changed her expression, not as vicious as Mu Jingfei, but in line with her own cold temperament, her eyes were as cunning as a jackal, and she was ready to swallow Mu Jingfei alive. Mu Jingfei looked at her former sister and completely changed her face, and lost her way with the gloomy strategy in her eyes.
There was a clear young man in the distance, leaning under the ancient tree, looking at the carriage of Mufu getting off, looking at the girl in red as if she was stepping on the galaxy, swaying gracefully, bright and vivid, with a little more regret and appreciation in his eyes. It's a pity that she is following that person, the person who will eventually hang Mu Jinghong's head outside the city. He and her will never spend the rest of their lives together, appreciate the prosperity of the world, and the final outcome between him and her is just to hold the sword. Since he first saw him outside the mountain gate today, he has admired this ruthless and cold woman, strolling and beautiful, with a full of strategy in her eyes but never infected by the world. He appreciates this beauty very much, he always feels that he has a fate with her, so he is willing to help her, but unfortunately, she is Mu Ruoying.
Mu Ruoying came to the banquet and sat down, seeing that the emperor and Chu Lingran had not yet taken their seats, Baisheng chatted, listening to Mu Jinghong and the courtiers talking about political affairs, and the expression of worrying about the country and the people was appeased by many old ministers, Mu Ruoying thought that Mu Jinghong's court car stopped in front of the Suzaku Gate, and everyone who came and went understood whose court car it was, that is, the group of foolish and loyal old ministers heard Mu Jinghong talk about the displaced people, and said that they wanted to clear the source and intercept the flow and seek a peaceful residence for the people.
After chatting with Baisheng, Mu Ruoying escaped from the court, wanting to breathe in a no-man's land. Mu Ruoying walked along the deep courtyard of the palace and walked to a place where there was a small bridge and flowing water, there was no one around, and it was not difficult to guess that it was a cold palace in the deep enclosure of the palace wall, Mu Ruoying sat on the ground, looking at the bright moon in the sky, thinking that once the day passed, she would have to be more strategic, so she couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Do you know that this place is the Forbidden Palace Garden, and your courage is still as big as ever."
Mu Ruoying listened to the bright laughter coming from behind, feeling familiar, but she couldn't recognize something. just tensed her nerves, but didn't lean back, Mu Ruoying had a hunch that it was no coincidence that that person came here, but followed her all the way. What a powerful martial arts.
Your Excellency smiled. Following the official woman all the way to this deep palace place, in fact, people misunderstand the innocence of Your Excellency and the little woman, Your Excellency should leave in a hurry at this moment, so as to show respect for me. ”
Mu Ruoying endured the trembling of her body, for fear that he was not a good scholar, but she didn't dare to blindly pretend to be timid, as long as she held her breath, she pretended that she could write martial arts, knowing that he followed his appearance with light skills.
"Hahahaha, you woman, it's so funny."
He jumped in front of Mu Ruoying, Mu Ruoying was frightened by his sudden movements, but he didn't show the slightest on his face, just looked at the man with murderous intent, until he ......
The man stood in the moonlight with his back hand, the cold moon hit his face, revealing thick eyelashes and deep eyebrows, looking at Mu Ruoying under his eyes, full of laughter and teasing, the breeze blew, the broken hair on his forehead was dense and soft, but it did not disturb the beautiful half of it, Mu Ruoying finally understood what it means to be drunk and not drunk and everyone is drunk.
It's him. It was the one who scattered her body. The person with the word Chu engraved on the front of the bottle.
"You're... Chu Lingran. ”
Mu Ruoying's tone was unwavering, and she couldn't help his half-pretending, she understood that man's city. But since Chu Lingran also understood that she was ruthless in killing, Mu Ruoying didn't need to hide half of her brilliance, and facing the enemy head-on was the greatest respect for the enemy.
"You're really a smart woman."
The man was not surprised at all, and Mu Ruoying could guess his identity just by just one Chu character. On the contrary, Chu Lingran thinks that this woman can do all her foresight just by guessing, if Mu Jinghong gave birth to a good daughter, it is Mu Ruoying. Fortunately, she is not a man, otherwise she would never be in control of this country now.
"The second lady of the Mu family is in real name."
The man leaned down and pressed his face closer, and the distance between the two could feel each other's snorts. The eyes of the two are facing each other, so dementoring, but they hide all the stories under their eyes. The two of them quietly looked at each other for a long time, and when they would miss the banquet time any further, Chu Lingran first withdrew a lot of his gaze.
"Your Excellency, how is the measurement? I... Are you satisfied? ”
Mu Ruoying didn't want to be inferior, so she playfully broke the embarrassment of the two of them being speechless, and looked at the killing god who destroyed a country in just three days with flirtatious eyes. Mu Ruoying looked up and down at the general with a beautiful face, if he didn't take revenge on him, how could he safely participate in this feast specially held for him as if nothing had happened?
"Satisfied, Mu Ruoying, Mu Zi Gonghe, like flowers into water, Ying color moves the country, women should be like this.
Mu Ruoying looked at the man who seemed to be able to see through his life, and said nothing, but felt frustrated that he was defeated by this man. He glanced at it in annoyance, but he didn't know where to start.
"That's... Chu Lingran. Do your parents want you to be proud of heaven and earth? ”
Mu Ruoying originally hoped to pierce Chu Lingran's mind of pointing at the world, but she looked at the sadness and sorrow in the man's eyes. Some don't know why, looking down at the reflection of the moonlight in the lake, some are far away and cold.
"No, it's a lifetime of invincible, two trees into a stun, a solo dance, and enjoy all the loneliness in life."
