A woman came out of the house, almost trotting over, under a white paper umbrella, the woman was dressed in white and dressed, and her posture was curling.

Zheng Shuyao walked up to Mo Ziwei, with an irrepressible surprise on her face, "Senior brother, why are you here?" ”

I watched them look at each other and smile, and my heart slowly cooled.

After getting off the horse, Gao Changgong and I led the horse over.

"Lord Wang!"

Zheng Shuyao saw us, and walked quickly to Gao Changgong with an umbrella, covering the drizzle on his head.

Gao Changgong's gaze swirled back and forth on Zheng Shuyao and Mo Ziyao, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the strong man to be Shu Yao's senior brother, it seems that we are destined to be fateful." ”

Mo Ziwu also replied: "I didn't expect Your Excellency to be the King of Lanling." ”

Zheng Shuyao looked at them suspiciously, "Lord Wang, have you seen my senior brother?" ”

Gao Changgong was obviously very excited, and said, "Not only have I seen it, just today, he saved my life." ”

"Senior brother saved the prince?"

Just when Gao Changgong and Zheng Shuyao explained the cause and effect of the incident, I suddenly found that the rain in the air had disappeared, and when I looked up, I found that there was an azure-colored oil-paper umbrella on my head at some point. The owner of the umbrella was staring at me from the side.

Mo Ziwei was beside me, a pair of clear eyes dyed with a hazy color like green smoke and mist, looking at me quietly.

My face changed and I moved away from under the umbrella coldly. Gao Changgong was talking to Zheng Shuyao, and I said to Gao Changgong: "Lord, I want to go back and change my clothes, so I will retire first." ”

After speaking, he called the doorman at the door to lead the horse, and no matter what the people behind him thought, he went straight into the house.

When I got back to my room, and changed into wet clothes, I picked up a magazine of the nations, calmed down, and began to read it in front of the window.

"Bang", what caught my eye was Ah Sleeve's panicked face, "Sister, I just saw that Mo Zi was worried, and the people in the mansion also said that he came back with you and King Lanling, what's going on?" ”

I raised my eyes lightly and said, "Mo Ziwei is the princess's senior brother, and he came to visit the princess." ”

"What!" Ah Sleeve's eyes widened in surprise, and then he looked at me cautiously, "That sister, what do you ......do with him?"

I was suddenly distraught, and I couldn't read the contents of the book anymore anyway, so I simply threw the book in my hand on the desk and said, "There is no need to mention the past, and when you see him again in the future, treat him as a stranger." ”

In the afternoon, Gao Changgong came to me and told me the purpose of Mo Ziwu's visit to the palace.

It turned out that the day before yesterday, Mo Ziwei strayed into the box of a restaurant and inadvertently heard a conspiracy behind the screen. There were three people in the box, namely He Shikai, Zu Ting, and Luo Ti, and these three were plotting to eradicate their roadblock - Gao Changgong.

The three of them had a disagreement, Luo Ti wanted Gao Changgong to disappear as soon as possible, and suggested using assassination; Zu Ting thinks that this matter should not be rushed, Gao Changgong is an important minister of the court after all, although His Majesty does not like him, but there are many places that still need to rely on him, if Gao Changgong dies at this time, it will cause His Majesty's suspicion, it is best to let His Majesty completely dislike him, and then make a move. The ancestral court is already planning a plan to make His Majesty completely disgusted with Gao Changgong, but it will take some more time; He Shikai did not approve of the assassination, thinking that it was time to start charging Gao Chang Gongan with a crime and removing this obstacle.

The three disagreed and soon broke up. When Mo Ziwei heard this, she thought about it and felt that she still had to tell Zheng Shuyao about it, and asked her husband to take precautions.

"It seems that those killers this morning were really sent by Luo Ti to kill me." Gao Changgong made a conclusion.

"It's easy to dodge with open guns, but it's hard to defend against hidden arrows. You can get away with it this time, but what if the ancestral court comes up with some trick to deal with you? ”

Gao Changgong's eyes were shining, and he said with a righteous attitude: "The body is not afraid of shadows, as long as I walk correctly and sit upright, his dirty water will not be splashed on me." ”

I didn't contradict him, but my anxiety grew heavier.

"By the way, why didn't you go to dinner today?" Gao Changgong changed the subject.

"I don't have an appetite, I don't really want to eat." I casually lied.

Gao Changgong stared at me and didn't speak, his eyes looked at my face for a long time, as if he wanted to see something, he asked hesitantly, "You, don't you like Shu Yao's senior brother?" ”

I sat still, without denial.

Gao Changgong saw me like this, so he persuaded me in a good voice: "Although I don't know why you don't like him, but between my conversations with him, I found that he is righteous and chic, a true chivalrous man with a chivalrous heart, and he is worthy of friendship. If you know him, you'll like him. ”

"I specially invited him to eat in the house." Gao Changgong looked at me, his eyes radiating a soft light like the clear light of the mountains and rivers, "You didn't go to lunch today, you can't go without dinner, you'll be hungry." ”

——

Several tables are placed together, and the tables are covered with carefully prepared dishes, including shredded chicken and white fungus, steamed fish, stir-fried pork with jade shoots, fresh mushroom cabbage heart, sweet and sour milk melon, and sweet and delicious fruit wine. It's a pity that looking at the dishes on the dining table, I am not interested and don't want to move the chopsticks.

Gao Changgong took a piece of chicken and put it in my bowl and said, "You didn't have lunch today, eat more." ”

I looked at the greasy chicken and lost my appetite, so I sandwiched the chicken into Gao Changgong's bowl again, excused myself, and said with a smile: "You are busy with official business on weekdays, you must be tired, you should also eat more to replenish your body." ”

After speaking, I felt that Mo Ziwei and Zheng Shuyao on the other side were looking at us, I drank a glass of fruit wine casually, and sandwiched the fried meat she liked to eat in Ah Sleeve, not caring about the gaze of the other side at all.

"Senior brother, why don't you eat it?" Zheng Shuyao's concerned voice sounded, "I haven't seen you for many years, and you have lost a lot of weight than before." ”

I raised my eyes slightly, only to see Mo Zi smiling absent-mindedly, "Really?" ”

Zheng Shuyao smiled like a green lotus for the first time, and said: "I specially asked the kitchen to make your favorite steamed fish, you can try it." ”

"Yes, Brother Mo." Gao Changgong agreed, "You don't have to be restrained, there is good wine and good food here, you can eat as much as you like." ”

Under the two eager gazes, Mo Ziwei finally picked up a piece of fish fillet.

I looked at Mo Ziyao, and then at Zheng Shuyao's relieved smile, and secretly slandered in my heart: After all, she used to be a lover, but she remembered Mo Ziyao's preferences very clearly.

It can be seen that Gao Changgong has a good impression of Mo Ziwei, and he asked Mo Ziwei: "Listen to Shuyao, Brother Mo, you walk the rivers and lakes and have no fixed place." I don't know where Brother Mo lives in Yecheng this time, so I'll visit you another day. ”

"Naturally, I live in an inn."

"The inn?" Gao Changgong frowned slightly, and suggested to Mo Ziwei, "The inn is shabby, and there are many inconveniences. There are still many vacant rooms in my house, so it's better for Brother Mo to move to my house to live. ”

Mo Zi politely refused: "I came to Yecheng this time to do important things, and I don't plan to stay for a long time, the matter has been completed, and I will leave tomorrow, so I won't bother the prince." ”

Zheng Shuyao was taken aback and reluctantly said, "Senior brother, are you leaving tomorrow?" We brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for many years, and we haven't said a few words. ”

Gao Changgong said: "Yes, Brother Mo, why hurry to leave, it's better to come to the palace to stay for a few more days, give me a chance, let me do my best to be a guest and host, and repay your rescue." ”

"Senior brother, didn't you say that someone wanted to harm the prince? Today, the prince was killed, but fortunately, the senior brother rescued him to be safe, and Shu Yao was grateful. But Shuyao is worried, if there is a next time, the prince is in distress, and there is no senior brother here, who will save the prince? Senior brother, you are strong in martial arts, can you stay in the palace and protect the prince? Zheng Shuyao said her true purpose of keeping Mo Ziwei.

Seeing that Mo Zi was worried and didn't answer, Zheng Shuyao said: "It's as if I hired you to protect the prince." Senior brother, I won't wronged you for too long, just a month. In a month's time, you'll be able to go all over the world. ”

Mo Ziwu said to her: "Shu Yao, there are many guards around the prince, and I can't help if I stay, without me, the prince will be safe, you don't have to worry." ”

When I saw him whispering softly to Zheng Shuyao, I couldn't help but sarcastically say: "Mo Shaoxia is a noble person, and the prince is not touching him." ”

Mo Ziwu's gaze turned to me, and I was cold.

Zheng Shuyao continued to plead: "Senior brother, I beg you, you can help the prince." ”

Faced with Zheng Shuyao's request, Mo Ziwei first glanced at me, then turned to Zheng Shuyao, and finally relented, "Okay, I promise you to stay and protect the prince." ”

Zheng Shuyao suddenly smiled like a flower, dazzling.

Sure enough, I still can't let go of her in my heart, people just begged gently, and he abandoned his son and surrendered, when the truth is deep and righteous!

Mo Ziwei agreed to stay in the palace, although the reason for staying was not what Gao Changgong expected, but he was still very happy.

And beside me, Ah Sleeve was watching this scene with a complicated expression.

This night, Mo Ziwei stayed in the Lanling Palace.

Early this morning, I went to the martial arts training ground to practice swords as usual, but I found that the courtyard was much more lively than before, not only Gao Changgong was there, but even Mo Ziwei and Zheng Shuyao were there.

Zheng Shuyao smiled at me and said, "Sister Aqing, you're late, it's very interesting for the prince to learn martial arts with his senior brother, but it's a pity that you can't see it." ”

Gao Changgong said regretfully: "Brother Mo's martial arts are indeed unfathomable, and I am ashamed of myself. ”

"Really?" I answered, my eyes were as cold as spring, I looked at Mo Ziwu, and said, "Then I want to learn if Mo Shaoxia's martial arts are really that powerful." ”

With that, I quickly pulled out a sword from the weapon rack and stabbed straight at Mo Ziwei.

Mo Ziwu didn't expect me to make a move, and hurriedly pulled out another sword from the weapon rack to deal with my attack.

I stabbed my chest with a sword, but Mo Ziwei just avoided it lightly, and did not make a counterattack. I stabbed it twice, but Mo Ziwei still skillfully dodged it.

Seeing Mo Ziwu, I always felt uncomfortable in my heart, full of grievances and didn't know where to vent, my belly of anger turned into a sharp sword move, and I swung my sword with all my strength to cut it away.

Mo Zi was worried about returning the sword to block the frame, and in the face of my attack, he either blocked the frame or avoided it, and he had no intention of contributing. This made me even more angry, a diagonal slash over, and with a "ding" sound, he actually knocked down the sword in Mo Ziyou's hand.

In an instant, Mo Ziyao's cuffs were shocked by the sword qi, revealing his wrist, and a red rope was tied to his hand!
