"Come over here and whisper something to you..... You know what? The scholar in the courtyard of the second lady has just received the holy decree and is going to face the saint tomorrow......"

When Mu Xiyao walked into the courtyard gate of Mufu, suddenly, the whispers of several servants who were cleaning the snowdrift gently entered her ears, making her involuntarily stop herself walking towards her courtyard.

Mr. Book?! Who's that?! Why does it sound so familiar!

"You ...... Who is the Mr. Book you are talking about?! With a quick stride, she stepped in front of the servants and asked hurriedly.

"II...... Two-two-two! Second Miss! "Those slaves seemed to be taken aback, what's wrong with the second lady, she suddenly talked to us, scared to death!

"Miss Ben asks you something!" Mu Xiyao's face was slightly red, and her voice was eager, when did there be an extra person named Mr. Shu in her yard?! "Say!"

"Back to ...... Back to the second miss," one of them swallowed, "just.... It's the teacher that the head of the family found for you, and he ..... He he his surname book, small.... The little ones all call him Mr. Shu in private......"

Mu Xiyao was stunned. Don't.... In his yard, there is indeed such a person surnamed Shu......? But.... How do you ..... yourself? No impressions..... That's right! "What's his name! Miss Ben wants you to say your full name! She continued.

"Called..... Call..... Miss Hui, I can't remember the little one..... "The slave said helplessly, they all call him Mr. Shu, who remembers what that person's name is?"

"Useless stuff!" She waved her sleeves a little irritably, "Get out!" Do what you have to do! ”

"Ahh Yes, yes, yes! The people were relieved, and the next moment they dispersed.

Surname book..... Mu Xiyao pondered for a while, maybe.... You can ask Frost if she knows..... I looked up at the sky, why was it so late? Is it already the end of the day? That's it, I won't look for it today, I'm also tired, so I'll ask again tomorrow.....

Tightening the buttons of her clothes, she slowly walked back to her small courtyard.

And a small courtyard near the wall of Huadu.....

In the dim candlelight, a figure was faintly visible.

Houses far from the city are the cheapest, and because they are close to the outskirts of the city, close to the forests outside the city, and cold at night, few people are willing to buy a place to live there. It is because of this that it is convenient for someone.

If you rely on the faint candlelight, look closely, and listen carefully, you can hear the faint sound of skin tearing, which adds a bit of horror to the quiet surroundings.....

"Whew..... Mask with a face every day

Pretend to be yourself, but really.... Hehe....." The man whispered, soaked the skin into a basin of water, smiled indifferently, pinched it lightly with one hand, and slowly, put on a shabby mask.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, early in the morning.

A white dove stood on the eaves of the house, cooing.

There was no sunlight in the morning, but the snow on the ground had not yet melted, but out of nowhere it borrowed light and penetrated into the dim room.

"Pigeons?" When the man heard the voice, he smiled suddenly, gently pushed open the only wooden window in the room, which was taut with oiled paper, and beckoned to the white dove. The pigeon, as if not afraid of life, cooed and flew to his right finger to stand, and rubbed his head lightly against the man's cheek with his very affectionate expression.

"Let me see......" He removed the small bamboo pipe tied to the pigeon's right leg, which was wrapped in a broken note, "Go....." The man waved his hand, and the white pigeon cooed into the blue sky and disappeared.

"Letter from the Southern Dynasties..... If it's nothing big .... He won't send me carrier pigeons......" The man looked south, and there was the direction of Ye Xiangfu.

Holding one end of the note with one hand, pulling the other hand to the opposite side, gently unfolding, only a few words were written on it: Marriage, first aid, come quickly!

"Interesting..... I didn't expect him to get married..... Ahead of me......" The man smiled indifferently, twisted his fingers, and the note in his hand turned to ashes, and the ashes were annihilated, "but ..... I'm still going to face the saint..... Forget it, face saint or something, it doesn't hurt to delay for a few more days, after all, the big wedding of the southern minister must be announced to the world, so at this time..... Who still remembers that he is a nobody, whether he went to face the saint, hehe....."

He put his hands behind his back and looked up into the air, but.... himself as a big brother .... Or do you need to buy some items back, are you going to be a guest? But.... I don't know..... She..... Will it go.....

Laughing at himself in his heart, he put on the green coat and slowly walked out of the somewhat dilapidated hut, but intentionally or unintentionally, he did not put the thin layer of skin soaked in water on his face.....

And at this time, what was she doing in the man's mind......

"Frost! You tell me honestly! What is Mr. Book's name! Mu Xiyao crossed her waist with both hands, staring at Shuang'er viciously, and she had a very good look of not giving up without asking, "You tell Miss Ben!" When did you learn it, even I have to hide it! ”

"Miss....." Shuang'er was a little at a loss, how could Miss remember that there was once a gentleman surnamed Shu in her yard?

"You say! Nothing happened today anyway! Miss Ben is here with you! Mu Xiyao blocked her unreasonably.

"I ..... Oops, Miss! you

Don't embarrass me, okay? Shuang'er complained vigorously in her heart, Mr. Shu, why did he only tell himself, don't let Miss know, he didn't think about it, there is no impermeable wall in this world!

"Miss Ben is going to spend it with you today! You don't say it! Don't even think about leaving this courtyard! Mu Xiyao walked to the door of her courtyard arrogantly and squatted down, "Miss Ben, look at when you say!" ”

"Alas....." Shuang'er hung her head helplessly, "I said..... Huh? Mu Gongzi? ”

"Miss Ben warns you! Don't try to distract Miss Ben! Don't say it's my brother coming! It's useless for my mother to come! Mu Xiyao turned her back to her, but at some point, there were two people standing behind her.

"Xi Yao ......"

"Little sister..... What are you doing here? It's cool on the ground! ”

Belch...... She turned her head to look at the two people behind her in disbelief..... I.... Miss Ben doesn't have the ability to make a proverb, does she? Could it be that there really something bad is waiting for Miss Ben later?

"Mother.... Mother.... Big.... Big brother," Mu Xiyao could only force a smile and quickly got up, "Why did you think of coming to my yard?" ”

"Ahem.... That ....." Xiao Yao glanced at Mu Xijun, and Mu Xijun hurriedly said, "It's such a little sister, my father heard a message from the emperor when he was in the early dynasty, and then when he came back, he hurriedly called us to talk about things, we thought about it, came over and asked if you want to go with us?" ”

"Wait, wait!" Mu Xiyao hurriedly waved her hand, "Big brother, what did you say, I was confused, I was dizzy." ”

"Let me tell you," Xiao Yao sighed, "Ye Xiang's wedding in the Southern Dynasty, he wants to entertain all the people in the world, at least those with heads and faces, what about your father, come back and tell us to go to the street to buy some valuable items as a special product, and go to Ye Xiang's wedding......"

"Oh, Nanchao Ye is married, the question is what does it have to do with me?" Mu Xiyao spread her hands and expressed her puzzlement, she is just the second lady of Mufu, and she has some reputation in Huadu, she is still a bad kind, she is a weak woman when she goes out of Huadu, right? What do you do in that kind of luxurious scene by yourself? Isn't it easy to find it?

"Your father is going," Xiao Yao glanced at her with some concern, "There is another reason why I brought you there, that is, ..... Aren't you going to be in time, I'm going to show you.... Can you find a ....." When the old man said this, he really thought that he had heard it wrong! Unexpectedly, he turned out to be.... Repeated three times.....

"So? Will you ask me? Ask me if I'm going or not? Mu Xiyao asked incredulously. This..... This is too oolong, isn't it.... His old man chose a son-in-law for himself, and he wanted to pull Miss Ben into the water! Why didn't he go to it himself! Why! "No, no

Go! Her head shook like a rattle, "Whoever loves to go!" Miss Ben isn't going anyway! Hum! ”

With that, she turned around and pulled on the frost, "Let's go!" Frost, go back to sleep with Miss Ben! ”

"Little sister...... Mu Xijun only felt that she had no sense of existence, why didn't the little sister look at herself?

"Miss......" Frost frowned, "Frost thinks you should go," if you go out, maybe you will forget about Mr. Shu?" I'm sorry Mr. Shu, for the sake of Miss, I can only sacrifice you. She continued to comfort Mu Xiyao, "Miss, look, don't you like to go out the most?" Isn't that a good opportunity? When the time comes, with Mu Gongzi by your side, you will be safe anyway, aren't you? ”

"This ......," Mu Xiyao paused. Miss Ben likes to hang out, but ...... Why do you have to be accompanied by that father! It's so uncomfortable!

Seeing that she seemed to be a little moved, Shuang'er continued to persuade, "Miss, do your own calculations, you still have a few months to go?" ”

Mu Xiyao pinched her fingers and pulled the corners of her mouth, "It seems to be ..... It seems like it's not been a few months..... "Damn! I can't go out and play anymore! I heard that they are staying in some deep boudoir compound, doing what they should do after they get married, not to mention going out to play, maybe you have to be careful when you say a word! All right...... Miss Ben gave in.....

"That's right!" Frost smiled slightly.

Mu Xijun and Xiao Yao glanced at Shuang'er with relief, and nodded slightly, "Since it's decided, let's go out and buy some things first to show our hearts!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard an exclamation outside the hospital-

"What! Ye Xiang's wedding?! Behind them, a startled voice suddenly sounded.

"Who?!" The crowd followed the sound and watched.
