Chapter 8: The Uninvited Guest
Shu Qing stayed in prison for more than half a month, and during this half a month, Xuehuan and Xuepei served her thoughtfully and carefully, but this is a dungeon, no matter how thoughtful and careful, it is still very painful for Shu Qing, who has been cared for and raised in his mouth since he was a child.
The mosquitoes in the dungeon had bitten her delicate skin all over her with red envelopes, and if there was anything in the dungeon that satisfied her, it was probably three meals a day.
The porridge and vegetables sent from the prison every day are porridge and vegetables, there is not even a drop of oil in the dishes, the taste is very light, if it was placed in the past, Shu Qing must be difficult to swallow, but some time ago, because she made up her mind to lose weight, now it has become a meat fishy and difficult to touch.
Shu Qing only eats a little porridge and porridge every day, and she has lost a lot of weight in half a month, she used to be a vegetarian for Mo Wengu, but now she doesn't know who to do.
And in the past half a month, Mo Wengu has never even looked at her, not even half a greeting, and Shu Qing has never mentioned him, as if she has never met Mo Wengu in her life.
Shu Qing didn't mention Mo Wengu, and Xue Huan and Xue Pei didn't dare to mention his name easily.
Shu Zicheng and Lin Ziyue had a relationship and secretly came to see her a few times, but Shu Qing couldn't bear to let them see such an unbearable side of her, so they all declined.
Rao is like this, Shu Zicheng still asked someone to deliver a note to Shu Qing, telling Shu Qing that he was thinking about rescuing her.
Liu Fuyan's case is complicated and confusing, although Shu Qing confessed, it was still a troublesome matter to try, and there was no progress in the past half a month.
Just when Shu Qing was still suffering in prison, an uninvited guest suddenly came to King Qing's mansion.
Mo Wengu has always been confused these days, he can't lift his spirits all day long, Liu Fuyan's case was solved by his own hands, he should have felt happy, but he didn't know what was going on, his heart always felt empty, as if something was missing in his body, but he couldn't remember what was missing.
It's rare that there are no trivial things after going down to the court today, Mo Wengu first went to Linfu and had a few drinks with Lin Ziyue, he originally wanted to find Lin Ziyue to sweep away the bitterness in his heart, but who knew that Lin Ziyue was a rake, and there were a few words of sarcasm in his words, and there was a lot of complaining about his ruthlessness in his words.
Mo Wen walked to the door of King Qing's mansion with his hands in his hands, and when he remembered the last sentence that Lin Ziyue said to him, he couldn't help but ask himself: "Is this king really so unkind?" ”
Naturally, there was no one to answer his question.
Mo Wengu smiled slightly bitterly, put aside these troubled thoughts for the time being, and strolled into the mansion.
As soon as he stepped into the threshold, a family ran over in a hurry: "Lord Wang, a distinguished guest came to the mansion today, saying that he wanted to see you." ”
"Guest?" Mo Wengu asked curiously, "Which distinguished guest?" ”
The family shook his head and said, "She didn't let her say, she only told the villain that the prince would know who she was." ”
Mo Wengu couldn't help but have a headache: "Where are you settled now?" ”
The villain asked her to wait in the prince's study. Jia Ding replied.
Mo Wen looked at his head: "This king knows, you go down first, and this king will go." ”
Since Shu Qing's birthday, no one has visited King Qing's mansion for a long time, so Mo Wengu can't help but be a little curious about this mysterious visitor.
He wondered who this mysterious visitor might be, and walked down the corridor to the study.
When passing through the garden, Mo Wengu happened to see the old housekeeper holding Liuqu out to relax, Liuqu has been very angry recently, and he can't raise his appetite, even the meat and bones that he likes to eat most on weekdays are placed in front of it, and he can't arouse the slightest interest.
Liuqu saw him from a distance, but he didn't react, only drooped his tail and lay down on the spot, staring at him with a pair of dark eyes.
The old housekeeper was so anxious that he pulled the rope on Liuqu's body, coaxing and persuading: "Good Liuqu, let's go back, go quickly." ”
Liuqu ignored him, called a few times aggrievedly, and still lay there.
Seeing this, Mo Wengu couldn't help but ask the old housekeeper curiously: "What's wrong with Liuqu?" Is there something uncomfortable? ”
The old housekeeper frowned and replied: "It's not uncomfortable, the doctor just looked at it for it, and it was all good, but it was very strange, Liuqu just didn't eat, and he was making a fuss all day long to play in the back garden." The villain thought, the six songs are estimated to be ......"
The old butler was halfway through speaking, but he didn't dare to continue, so he only looked at Mo Wengu cautiously, testing his meaning.
Mo Wengu raised his eyebrows: "What is the estimate?" ”
The old housekeeper cleared his throat, and then continued: "The villain thinks to himself, Liuqu is estimated to miss the princess, in the past, the princess often took it to the back garden to play, although Liuqu is a dog, but also misses the old love." ”
The old housekeeper said this, Mo Wen Gu Dengshi also understood why Liuqu has been so abnormal recently, thinking that it is because he is used to eating Shu Qing's bone broth, and his tongue has been raised so tricky, so he has not eaten the meat and bones burned in the kitchen these days.
He glanced at Liuqu, and was a little displeased. The old butler said it unintentionally, but he heard another meaning - the old housekeeper was saying that even dogs are so affectionate and righteous, but he is the only one who is ruthless and unrighteous?
"Hmph," Mo Wengu snorted coldly, "Butler, you don't care about it!" Since it is so stubborn that it refuses to eat anything, let it starve! When it gets hungry, it will eat everything! ”
"This ......" the old housekeeper glanced at Liuqu, and had to respond helplessly, "Yes, the little one understands." Liuqu, let's go. ”
As he spoke, the old housekeeper dragged Liuqu out of the back garden.
Mo Wen watched the man and the dog walk away, and then turned around and continued to walk towards the study.
The study was not far from the back garden, and after listening to the old housekeeper's words, Mo Wengu became more and more uncomfortable in his heart, and the gloomy dullness made it difficult for him to breathe several degrees.
He had to speed up his pace and move forward with all his might.
After a short time, Mo Wengu came to the study, the door of the study was open, the sun was just right, and the bright sunlight was shining on the windowsill.
Once upon a time, there must have been a fragrant smell of soup wafting from the study, but now, that fragrance is no longer there.
Mo Wen frowned, and looked in the direction of the sun, but saw that the camellia on the windowsill had a flower bone today, and the leaves were drenched, as if they had just been watered.
Mo Wengu breathed for a moment, and muttered two words: "Shu Qing? ”
