In Kiyomizu Temple, Xiaoyaozi, who had been asleep for a few days, finally slowly opened his eyes.

Although he was out of danger after the medicinal bath, there was no sign of waking up.

The master of the clear space was relieved not to let go of Xiaoyaozi, but he supported his weak body and guarded by the bedside every step of the way.

His face was haggard, as if he was more than ten years old, and his body, which was not fat, was even thinner.

Moving his dry white lips, Xiaoyaozi said weakly: "Senior brother......"

"Senior brother, you're awake!" Reaching out to Xiaoyaozi's pulse, seeing that everything was normal, the old tears of the Master of Clearance flowed out excitedly.

His voice was hoarse, and he choked up: "Senior brother, you're fine, you're finally fine......"

Xiaoyaozi saw that the master of the clear space was as thin as firewood, and he was very uneasy.

"Senior brother, why are you so haggard?" He supported the bed with his hands, and struggled to sit up on his own, but was pressed back by the Master of Clearance.

"Senior brother, don't move." Master Jingkong covered Xiaoyaozi with a quilt, stood up and said, "You lie down first, and I will tell Huihe to cook you a bowl of porridge." ”

"Senior brother!" grabbed Master Jingkong's arm, Xiaoyaozi looked straight at him, and his tone was anxious and fast: "Senior brother, that person is ruthless, martial arts, and evil martial arts, you must have suffered a lot of injuries if you rescued me from him!" ”

"Sit down and let me see your injuries!"

The external injuries on the Master of Clearance were not a big deal, but he sent all his internal strength to Xiaoyaozi, and he didn't have a good rest, so he naturally felt sick and weak.

Trying to break free of Xiaoyaozi's hand, Master Clearance turned around and smiled reluctantly as if comforting: "Senior brother, I'm really fine, don't worry." ”

Two years ago, Xiaoyaozi was seriously injured by the man in black, and the master of the clear space rushed over after getting the news, and saved Xiaoyaozi with nine deaths.

And two years later, Master Clearance brought back Xiaoyaozi from the "claws" of the man in black, just to save Xiaoyaozi, he paid a great price.

Xiaoyaozi had suffered two losses from the man in black, and he knew the viciousness of the man in black better than the Master of Clearance, so he decided that the Master of Pure Space had something to hide from him.

Holding the wrist of the Master of Clearance with his backhand, Xiaoyaozi wanted to give the Master of Clearance a pulse.

As if he had expected it, the Master of Clearance withdrew his wrist in time before Xiaoyaozi's fingers could catch his pulse.

"Senior brother, how is the martial arts of senior brother, you have learned it over the years." Turning his back on his hand, the Clearance Master's face was like sinking water, and he said slowly: "Although that person is not a decent martial artist, Senior Brother is not below him. ”

"If you really don't resist him, how can you carry you back?"

"Senior brother, you ......" Master Clearance's words still couldn't dispel Xiaoyaozi's worries, he shook his head, and wanted to ask something more, but Master Clearance had already left the room.

Sighing, Xiaoyaozi's expression was complicated.

At the gate of the palace, Mo Dongsheng got out of the carriage.

He didn't go in the direction of the imperial study, but went to the Mingyang Palace of the Eighth Prince.

The Eighth Prince was practicing calligraphy, and when Xiao Xiangzi led Mo Dongsheng into the door, he was stunned for a moment, then put down his pen, stepped forward and bowed his hand gently: "Master Mo." ”

In terms of age, the Eighth Prince should have to salute Mo Dongsheng, an elder.

However, in terms of identity, Mo Dongsheng is a courtier, and he can't afford the gift of the Eighth Prince.

Besides, if it weren't for the fact that the eighth prince spoke for Mo Zhiyan in front of the old emperor, I am afraid that the old emperor would treat Mo Zhiyan for the sake of the royal face, and he would have treated Mo Zhiyan like Peng Qian before, and let her go back to her parents' house to recuperate, but in fact, let her stay alive and widowed.

Now, although Heli's reputation is not very good, at least Mo Zhiyan is free.

She lives in her mother's house, and no one will give her a look or say something that pokes her heart.

Mo Dongsheng and his wife will continue to hold her and love her as Mo Zhiyan did before she got married.

Their daughter will always be as precious as an eyeball.

Mo Dongsheng came to Mingyang Palace today to personally thank the Eighth Prince, and seeing the Eighth Prince like this, he hurriedly stopped the Eighth Prince's actions in panic: "I can't do it, I can't do it!" ”

In fact, the Eighth Prince is just putting on a show.

After all, the monarch and the minister, the father and the son.

In this hierarchical dynasty, a minister is a minister, and he is not as noble as Tianhuang.

Straightening up along Mo Dongsheng's hand, the Eighth Prince instructed Xiao Xiangzi, "Go and serve tea." ”

Xiao Xiangzi was the confidant of the Eighth Prince, and naturally knew that the Eighth Prince was bent on winning over Mo Dongsheng, so he retreated in a hurry.

"Lord Mo, please be seated." Motioning for Mo Dongsheng to sit down, the Eighth Prince asked knowingly: "I don't know if Lord Mo came to Mingyang Palace, but there is something to do with this prince?" ”

Before the last time the Eighth Prince took the initiative to ask for disaster relief, Mo Dongsheng didn't pay much attention to the Eighth Prince.

Even if he is talented, well-behaved and filial, even if he has the support of the queen, but after all, he is young, no matter how he says it, he is a child.

There is no need for Mo Dongsheng to bet his life on a fledgling child, and he is also an inconspicuous child.

But now it's different, the Mo family and the Gu family have completely broken up, and the Eighth Prince has indirectly "saved" Mo Zhiyan.

Therefore, Mo Dongsheng began to treat the Eighth Prince differently.

He felt that since the Eighth Prince had tried to get in touch with the affairs of the DPRK and China, it showed that the Eighth Prince was also interested in this affairs.

There are few ministers in the court who can protect themselves wisely.

Most people will be caught up in partisanship.

The Mo family became a member of the Xuanwang Party because of their marriage with the Gu family.

King Xuan was abolished, and the Mo family maintained the ethics of "high wind and bright festival", and was unwilling to take refuge in King Xuan's sworn enemy Qi Hao.

It's a good choice to be good friends with the Eighth Prince.

Coughing lightly, Mo Dongsheng took out a delicate brocade box from his sleeve, stepped forward with both hands, and said respectfully: "Eighth prince, I won't tell you that Weichen came this time to express his gratitude to you on behalf of the little girl." ”

"Thanks?" The Eighth Prince's gaze fell on the brocade box, and then he moved away slightly, "Lord Mo's words, this prince doesn't understand very much. ”

"This prince and Miss Mo have never known each other, I don't know where this thank you comes from?"

Mo Dongsheng saw that the Eighth Prince did not accept it, and sent the brocade box forward: "The reason why the emperor is willing to give the little girl and Gu Chengen an order and leave is thanks to you, the Eighth Prince." You say, how can Wechen not thank you? ”

"The father's decree is completely a wise move by the father, not because of the prince." The eighth prince hooked his lips and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy one family." ”

"If this spreads, others will think that this prince has demolished the Mo family and the Gu family's family affairs, and they shouldn't know how to arrange this prince."

Regarding the matter of the eighth prince interceding for Mo Zhiyan, no one except the old emperor and Father-in-law Jia knew about it.

Why did Mo Dongsheng think that he was the Eighth Prince, or because the Eighth Prince specially sent someone to reveal the news to him, otherwise how could the Eighth Prince become Mo Zhiyan's benefactor?

"This ......" Mo Dongsheng looked at the Eighth Prince hesitantly, carefully pondering the meaning of his words.

It suddenly dawned on me that the eighth prince did not admit it, because he was worried about attracting tongues.

Since this is the case, it is not good for Mo Dongsheng to continue to talk about this issue.

"Yes, yes, Wechen understands." Nodding again and again, he opened the brocade box and changed his words: "This is a good inkstone, also known as a dragon's tail inkstone." ”

"The ancients once had a cloud, 'Sheyan armor the world'. Don't look at it as small, but the texture is superb. ”

"Dragon's Tail Inkstone? The name is interesting. When the Eighth Prince heard this, he smiled even more.

He took it, stroked the inkstone, and said with a smile: "This is indeed a rare good inkstone, Lord Mo is so gracious, this prince can only be disrespectful." ”

The eighth prince accepted the inkstone, which was to accept Mo Dongsheng's "overture".

Seeing this, Mo Dongsheng smiled with a wrinkle on his face, "The sword is given to the hero, and this good inkstone is suitable for the Eighth Emperor to use, so you are welcome." ”

"Master, the tea is here." At this time, Xiao Xiangzi came in with a tea tray, and after pouring a cup of tea for the Eighth Prince and Mo Dongsheng respectively, he withdrew with great eyesight.

Taking the initiative to bring the teacup to Mo Dongsheng's hand, the Eighth Prince said, "Lord Mo, please." ”

Mo Dongsheng gave in for a moment, "The Eighth Prince, please." ”

Just drinking a cup of tea also requires so much etiquette.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was a deep meaning in their eyes that they could understand each other.
