Chapter 16: He ..... Left
"Ah......h
She immediately lowered her head, a little disappointed in her heart, and apologized embarrassedly, "That.... I'm sorry.... I recognized the wrong person....."
"It's okay, since you admit your mistake, let's go back quickly!" The man smiled and handed the mask to her, "If you like this mask, I can give it to you." ”
"Huh!?" She shook her head again and again, "No, no, thank you!" I..... I'm back! "It's so embarrassing, why do you just call it out? But speaking of which, a man who looks so beautiful is no wonder he has to wear a mask when he goes out!
"Really, don't?" The man continued to smile, as if he was determined to give the mask to Mu Xiyao.
"No, no, no, no!" Mu Xiyao didn't know what was wrong with her, she was nervous when she looked at this person, it was.... Is it because she is too pretty? I don't even need makeup, it's better than those plays..... Phew, what was I thinking! How can such a beautiful person be a drama!
"Okay, since you don't want it," the man untied the rope with the mask, leaned down again, pinched the rope, carefully bypassed Mu Xiyao's ears, and gently helped her tie it, "That son, I can only give it to you forcibly!" By the way, that's your family, right? Let's go back! He grabbed Mu Xiyao's shoulders, turned her around, and gently pushed her, but he quietly left.
"Miss, Miss? What's wrong with you, Miss? Frost ran up first and asked in a low voice, "How is it, isn't it him?" ”
Mu Xiyao slowly took off the mask on her face, and shook her head in a daze, just a little ...... This person.... The aroma on his body is so strong..... What's that kind of aroma..... Myself.... Did you smell it somewhere?
She looked up at the sky, her eyes slightly confused.
Where is it......? That person..... I really haven't seen it myself..... Why.... Miss Ben gave him a little ..... Isn't there any vigilance....?
Xiao Yao and Mu Xijun, who was tired of becoming a Jingba, also walked over, looking at Mu Xiyao's stunned appearance, she was a little helpless, "Forget it, anyway, our intentions are almost here, Shuang'er, pull Xiyao back." ”
"Well, okay! Madam! ”
"Still called Madame? Have you forgotten again? Xiao Yao smiled softly.
"Ah..... Good! Godmother! ”
"That's good!"
On their way back, Xiao Yao looked intently in the direction of the palace.
I don't know..... This is ..... What will the emperor do.....
Will the three families go separately, or will Qin Sheng lead and protect the families of the three families together..... What kind of forces will the palace mobilize..... This.... But the south is facing the northern capital, the first demonstration....
Forget it, it doesn't have much to do with yourself .... My goal.... It's as long as the Xiao clan can have a place in the court..... To be an emperor .... Is there anyone in the clan who is the emperor's material.....
And at this time, the palace was almost turned upside down!
"How can this be true? It just doesn't make sense! Xia Huang angrily smashed those valuable porcelain, and the blue and white porcelain was torn apart.
"Father, dissipate your anger," Xia Chu frowned, this old father, the older he gets, the bigger his temper becomes..... People are like this?
"How do you let me get angry! Yes! Emperor Xia was furious, "The Ye Xiang of the Southern Dynasty is a blatant slap in the face!" Isn't it just to get married?! Yes! Also feast on people from all over the world! Is he showing that they are rich?! In the show that the Southern Dynasty is rich?! Isn't it saying: the South is better than the North?! Come here! Yes!? ”
"Back to my father," Xia Chu said tepidly, "in fact, they just want to show off, and to use popular ones is to show off their wealth!" This is not something that a good prime minister would do! But he did! We don't know if there's a problem with this, so ....."
"So you mean, we're going?!"
"Yes! Father! We're not just going to go! And go with great fanfare! They show it, but we are not easy to bully! Xia Chu continued.
At this time, Emperor Xia's mind was also a little clearer, and he suddenly hesitated, "But ....." these days, it has been raining and burying snow, and some autumn grains have not had time to harvest, they have been destroyed, and some spring seedlings have just been planted, they have been frozen to death, and some places are all not collected, and taxes cannot be collected..... Is it to show off with the money of the treasury?
The crown prince Xia Chu also saw Emperor Xia's troubles, and replied, "Father, the son is willing to pay a tribute of more than 500,000 taels with his meager strength to make the national treasury silver!" Then, his eyes gestured to the five princes who were standing, and the other princes.... is basically busy with his own affairs, only he has been staying in the palace, adapting to various things as the emperor's position in the future, and his fifth brother .....
He was an idle master, and he counted how much silver he could save, and he counted it with five fingers.
The fifth prince Xia was simply frightened by that look, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Erchen.... The sons are also willing to pay tribute.... More than 100,000 taels of tribute...... To make.... Make ..... "Dead at the beginning of summer!" If you break your own money, you will break your money! Why pull me! Lao Tzu hates you! One hundred thousand taels for this prince...... If you give too much, you are afraid that you will be said to be greedy, and if you say less, you are afraid that you will not do your best, this prince is really not good.....
I only saw that
Emperor Xia was relieved, the sorrow between his eyebrows disappeared, and he stroked his slightly gray beard with satisfaction, "The two emperors have a heart, and when the taxes from all over the place arrive, they will definitely be doubled and rewarded to you!" ”
"Thanks! Father! "At the beginning of the summer, I knelt down on my knees and bowed down.
"Huh? Double! Good, good, good! Xia Jian clapped his hands happily, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he quickly knelt down, "Thank you, father!" Thank you, Father! Hey! ”
"Okay, get up, you can retreat," Seeing the two of them get up and go away, Emperor Xia sighed, there are so many children under his knees, and now there are only two left to relieve his worries..... I don't know how the second and sixth children went...... Until now, it's still a piece of my own heart.... And the one in the concubine's belly.....
"Alas....." he really wanted to look up to the sky and roar -
It's really tiring to be an emperor! Especially watching his son kill each other, he can't control it.... It's all the jungle.... Who's to say it's not.... The original cloud house.... The original ..... All because of weakness .... will be replaced.... Ye Xiang who is far away in the Southern Dynasty, you say, I said.... Does it make sense.....
"Ahem....." Ye Shuqiu stood in the dilapidated hut very close to the outskirts of the city, and coughed a few times.
What's going on? I shouldn't have had that cold, how could I cough? Who's talking about me? Who could it be......
While thinking, he pinched the face mask that had been soaked in the basin for a day, and slowly pasted it on his face.... A coolness, from the face, soaked straight into the heart.
Quietly, he was excited, and his spirit was a little better.
Ye Shuqiu turned his head to look at the so-called "Northern Capital Specialties" piled up in the corner of the house, and smiled playfully.
Ginseng and Shou Wu are ok, but those snacks ..... What Huadu oil duck, soft heart chestnut, Huadu spicy tongue wine..... There are even strawberries, peaches.....
These stores have taken out all the inventory in their cellars, right?!
If it weren't for the fact that he had a special way to return to the Southern Dynasty..... I'm afraid that if it's not for these things, it will break down halfway because of the temperature difference......
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and the corners of his eyes brought a trace of tenderness and pampering.....
When I'm not there..... I hope you can have a happy life, Miss Two...... Mentioning those things, his gaze stayed in the direction of Namu Mansion for a long time, and then he slowly sighed in his heart, and quietly disappeared in place.....
Mu Xiyao happened to be in her own yard, with Shuang'er, learning how to thread the needle with Xiao Yao.
I saw that the red thread, in Xiao Yao's hand, obediently passed through the small hole, and then, gently, tied one
In the end, her fingers twisted one end of the red thread, and the bright embroidery needle hung so firmly on the other end of the red thread.
"This is called threading a needle," Xiao Yao smiled gently, took out another needle from the needle box, and handed Mu Xiyao a red thread, "Xiyao come and try?" ”
"Okay!" Mu Xiyao was already eager to try, she hurriedly took the red thread pinched between Xiao Yao's fingers, and when she was about to receive the needle, she suddenly felt a trance in her mind......
She looked up in the direction of the suburbs, and inexplicably felt that a corner of her heart had been pulled off, and there seemed to be something missing.....
The needle pierced her delicate fingertips, and a small bead of blood appeared.
"Oops! Why is it bleeding? Xiao Yao hurriedly put the needle in her hand back into the needle box, and asked Shuang'er to find a brocade handkerchief and wrap it around Mu Xiyao's fingertips, "Why are you so careless?" ”
"Mother......" Mu Xiyao's eyes seemed to be rolling with crystal tears, and she said inexplicably, "He..... Gone ......."
"Who's gone?" Xiao Yao frowned, tied the brocade with a bow, and patted her palm, "It seems that you are not in a very good mood today, and it is not good to ask too much for your mother, so you should rest first, this needlework, you can learn it slowly later, ah!" Frost, you guys have a good talk, I'll go back to the main courtyard first! ”
"Hmm!" Shuang'er nodded, "Godmother, go slowly!" ”
She looked at Mu Xiyao with some concern. What's wrong with Miss...... She said inexplicably that he was gone, who was gone? Could it be......
"Brother! Help me! Besides, Ye Shuqiu had just turned back to Ye Mansion when he heard a cry for help, and a figure rushed over directly.
