Chapter 8: Kidnapping

After so many years, the orchid that the mother likes is still there, and it grows with swaying leaves and a distant fragrance of flowers.

Was it that Ah Huan who helped the concubine divide the orchids into pots? Mu Yunyin remembered that there were only four pots of orchids in the past, but now they are divided into eight pots.

The humus soil in the orchid pots is moist but not wet, the windows are ventilated, and the sunlight in the shade shines obliquely from the cracks in the lintels, and these eight pots of orchids are particularly well cared for.

That Ah Huan is really interested in what her mother loves.

Going around and around, Mu Yunyin was about to return to the living room, and the housekeeper had already called.

"Cousin, the prince has gotten up in the living room, waiting for the cousin to speak."

"What kind of illness did your prince have, he should be in the prime of life, why is he seriously ill?"

"The doctor said that it was a depressive disease, long-term stagnation of liver qi, which dragged into a stubborn disease, hurt the liver and spleen, and mistook a strong physique."

"Oh, that's it."

As soon as he stepped in, he saw Ye Maolin, the king of Shunan.

Maybe it's the reason for the serious illness, Ye Shenglin, who hasn't seen him for a few years, and Ye Shenglin, who is not confused, looks old, as if he is getting weaker and haggard.

The burly and magnificent, radiant figure of the past is gone.

From the Shunan County Guard, Meng Huang'en was transferred to the imperial capital Taifu, from the southern Xinjiang feudal king and military general, to the emperor's favorite ministers, from the third-grade military attache to the first-grade civil minister, the king of Shunan, what are you not satisfied with, you still have this depression?

Mu Yunyin thought angrily in her heart, but somehow, her heart was still sour, and her eyes were wet with damp mist in her eyes.

The patient in front of him was his father in his previous life, maybe it was because of his former blood relationship, Mu Yunyin's heart was faintly painful.

"The little girl of the Mu family in Yunnan has seen the prince."

Mu Yunyin did not call Ye Shenglin as his uncle.

Ye Maolin looked at Mu Yunyin in front of him, and his body shook for a moment.

"Thank you for the Mu family's concern, Yunyin has also grown up."

Ye Shenglin said a word, but his voice was weak, and Mu Yunyin couldn't hear what Ye Shenglin said behind.

"Daddy, drink saliva."

Seeing King Shunan like this, You Meiniang hurriedly gave her daughter a look, and Ye Shu'er hurriedly held the tea and served it.

Now Ye Shu'er, her face is worried, her eyes are sad, and she has completely lost the look she had when she worshiped the god of thunderstorms in the queen's palace that day.

Thinking about that day, Ye Shuer was so hopeful in front of Xiao Qijin, the king of Ping, and her smile was like a flower.

Before and after people, inside and outside the house, it is simply like two people.

"My grandmother is old, and my father has miscellaneous affairs, so only Yun Yin will come to visit the prince for the family, and I hope the prince will not be surprised."

Although Mu Yunyin's voice was cold, what he said was reasonable.

"How can I be strange, now I am not in good health, when my body improves, I will definitely visit the old lady, is the old lady in good health?"

Mu Yunyin said lightly:

"My grandmother has been charitable all her life, regardless of the rotation of the Mu family's favor and humiliation, she still has a stronger affection for the Mu family than Jin, and she will never abandon her grandfather, so she is blessed by the Bodhisattva, her body is safe, and the pine crane prolongs her life."

Mu Yunyin didn't want to stay longer, and after greeting her grandmother and father, she said goodbye to the Shunan Wangfu and returned to the house in her own soft sedan waiting at the door.

Huang Li walked beside the sedan chair, and did not hear a word from the girl in the sedan chair along the way, nor did he sigh at the prosperity of the imperial capital.

Back in the house, Mu Yunyin lowered his head and got out of the sedan chair. Huang Li found that her girl's eyes were a little red and swollen, as if she had cried.

"Girl, what's wrong with you, why are your eyes a little red and swollen?"

Mu Yunyin held a small peach blossom fan, covering most of his face.

"The wind blew the sedan curtain on the road, and I was blinded by the wind and sand, and I rubbed it twice, but my eyes were red."

After returning to her grandmother, Mu Yunyin returned to her bedroom, perhaps tired of going out, Huang Li saw the girl fall on the bed, pulled the quilt tightly, covered her head and slew.

For a few days, Huang Li saw that the girl greeted the old lady and the adult as usual, and everything that should be done was complete. It's just that it's hard to see the girl smile again.

I said I was going to take her out to play, but the girl seemed to have forgotten.

Huang Li found that during this time, the girl did not do female celebrity or flower arrangement, and when she had a little leisure, she picked up the Yunnan Miaojiang medicine book and watched it quietly.

Mu Yunyin began to make the maids in the Sister's Mansion literate.

"The maid of the Mu family, when you go out, you must be like a raceman."

This is what Mu Yunyin said to her sister and the third sister, and the third sister was puzzled at first and did not agree with Mu Yunyin's words.

"Third sister, if you get married in the future, don't you want to have a personal maid brought by your mother's family to help you remember chores and check your accounts?"

"The third sister still has to do it herself, or do you want her husband's family to take the lead in doing those things?"

Mu Yunzhi and the two sisters thought about it carefully, what Mu Yunyin said was really right, so they no longer resisted.

The two sisters are literate people, so they taught the three personal maids of Mufu to read and write, and Huang Li also learned hard, and he couldn't catch up with his little master's thoughts if he didn't learn.

"In the future, when you marry into your husband's family, the maidservants you bring are all literate and hyphenated, and you will not lose the reputation of the Mu family's scholarly family.

Mu Yunzhi and the two sisters agreed with a smile, the daughters who have always been pampered are so preemptive, as concubines, they still can't learn a little?

Mu Yunyin made time to take the Yunnan medicine book and read it carefully.

Of course, Mu Yunyin didn't forget it, and promised Huang Li to take her out to play.

From Yunnan to Jiankang, I have been here for a while, and even Mu Yunyin has not gone out to play.

Mu Yunyin took out a day, took Huang Li, said that he wanted to buy some things from his daughter's family, wore a hat with white sand to cover his face, and went out with Huang Li.

Visited the rouge gouache shop, visited the silk and satin shop, from Wuyi Lane to the Confucius Temple, ate salted duck and squirrel fish, beautiful liver, dragon and phoenix shrimp, duck neck, duck gizzard, golden goose, Mu Yunyin planned to let Huang Li eat enough and play enough in one day.

Jiankang, the imperial capital, is worthy of being the center of the world of "the convergence of all countries circulating in the four seas", on the banks of the Qinhuai River, the boat and the boat, and the business envoys.

The master and servant were tired of shopping, so they found a secluded tea stall and sat down to drink tea and rest.

The security of the imperial capital should be good, but petty fights still can't be stopped.

Mu Yunyin and Huang Li just sat down and took a sip of tea, and there were people in the secluded tea stall around the corner.

Two young men who seemed to be street gangsters, swearing, suddenly made a fuss, and Mu Yunyin pulled Huang Li to get up and avoid it.

The two thugs struck each other, causing the tea table to shake, and the tea spilled out of the bowl.

The two of them hurriedly finished drinking the tea, declined the kindness of the owner of the tea stall to send an extra bowl, greeted a carriage with sore feet, and ordered the coachman to send it to the mansion of Lord Yushi on Xuanhua Road.

In a drowsy state, Mu Yunyin slowly woke up, feeling that something was wrong.

Suddenly, he found that he and Huang Li were tied all over, with strips of cloth stuffed in their mouths, and the hood on their heads had been torn off.

Huang Li had already woken up, but he was tightly tied by the thick hemp rope of his thumb, so that Huang Li could not save the Lord.

At this time, the carriage had stopped, and Mu Yunyin and Huang Li were dragged out of the carriage by two men with evil eyes.

Mu Yunyin saw that the place he was in was actually an empty courtyard, and he already understood that he had been kidnapped.

And the two men who kidnapped them to this strange place were the two thugs who were fighting at the tea stall.

Mu Yunyin and Huang Li were locked in two separate rooms, and the cloth strip in Mu Yunyin's mouth was removed, and he heard Huang Li in the next room shouting for help.

"It's useless for you to call this place."

Immediately, a man came to Mu Yunyin.

"Unexpectedly, I got silver again, and I had to be such a charming little lady, our brothers earned it."

"The one next door is not bad, either."

The two gangsters said, their dirty hands stretched out to Mu Yunyin.
