Chapter 194: Pain
"You...... I ......" Mu Hongshang was speechless for a while, she originally thought it was quite reasonable. She was born in a family of military generals, her father and brother are on the battlefield at the border, and what the Mu family wants to protect with all their strength is nothing more than the thousands of Li people behind her.
Guarding is almost the belief that the Mu family has engraved in their blood since childhood, even if it is not Mu Hongsheng today, if it is not any Mu family, seeing Xie Shurou, who is powerless, in distress, he will not die without help.
Of course, Mu Hongsheng felt justified not because of this. The Mu family acts in a measured manner, the lives of military generals are precious, they all know that they will not be easily suspected, and their lives must be kept to protect the Great Zhou Dynasty. Mu Hongsheng, who was educated with a group of future Mu generals, actually thought the same way.
At that time, saving people immediately, although it was a subconscious emergency response, but in the process, Mu Hongsheng was always calm, all actions were not random and reckless, except for being dragged off the horse in the end, it can also be called doing what she can, she feels that she is measured.
Even if she was dragged to the edge of the cliff all at once, she actually felt that she couldn't fall. She was holding the handle of the knife with one hand and holding Xie Shurou with the other, just thinking about being able to hold on for a moment longer, and didn't think about anything else.
And even if Zheng Ying doesn't come today, it will be a matter of time before the third uncle and grandmother Xie come over, Mu Hongshang feels that she and Xie Shurou can always be rescued.
Therefore, when Zheng Ying opened her mouth to question, Mu Hongshang originally felt that she was quite reasonable. However, for some reason, when she was stared at by Zheng Ying's thick black pupils, she suddenly felt inexplicably empty, and really began to reflect on whether she was too reckless and worried.
Mu Hongsheng looked a little scared, looked at Zheng Ying cautiously, and defended herself in a small voice: "I won't fall, I know it in my heart." You see, it's not good right now. ”
"Psychologically counted?" Zheng Ying laughed angrily, but this smile was cold, which made Xie Shurou, who was shrinking aside, so frightened that she shivered directly: "You naturally know it in your heart." You don't need to say this to me, you can explain it to Mrs. Mu and Duchess Anguo. ”
"Don't tell your grandmother or mother!" Mu Hongshang was so frightened that she immediately reached out and pulled Zheng Ying's sleeve again.
Even if Xie Shurou is the body of a paper man, she is also a big girl who has grown up, Mu Hongsheng grabbed her with one hand, it seemed to be okay on the surface, but in fact, where can a thirteen-year-old girl bear such a weight for a long time, her two arms have been severely strained, and she is weak and painful now.
She was nervous, she stretched out her hand a little urgently, pulled the muscles in her arm, and under the pain, she reflexively shrank slightly, and Zheng Ying, who was as careful as a hair, naturally found out immediately.
"You ......" Zheng Ying's long eyebrows, which had been raised diagonally, seemed to be about to stand up, he even forgot to avoid it, and directly reached out and pulled Mu Hongsheng's arm, his movements looked very tough and rough.
But in fact, Zheng Ying was very gentle, almost carefully holding up Mu Hongsheng's arm.
"I can't help myself!" Zheng Ying unobtrusively lifted the sleeves of Mu Hongsheng's skirt, looked at her forearm carefully, and then reached out and pressed it on Mu Hongsheng's shoulder blades and under her collarbone through her clothes.
Of course, Mu Hongsheng's shoulder joint was very strained, and Zheng Ying was very light, but Mu Hongsheng still trembled slightly subconsciously. Of course, the thin-skinned little girl Mu was embarrassed to shout pain in public, she bit her lower lip tightly, her face turned white, but she still stubbornly stood and didn't hide, it seemed that she was stubborn, just fighting for a breath, as if she had lost a lot of face when she cried out in pain.
But how can all this be hidden from Zheng Ying's eyes, seeing Mu Hongsheng's pale face, Zheng Ying felt like a sharp thorn poked directly into his chest, although intellectually he knew that this little girl was actually only seriously strained, and she would slowly get better after ten days and half a month, but emotionally he just couldn't accept it.
His fingers were still pressed on Mu Hongsheng's shoulder, but he didn't dare to move, as if this girl had a bloody and hideous wound on her body, which made him helpless.
However, although Zheng Ying was cautious in his movements, his words were cold and hard, and he was merciless: "Hurt like this, do you still want to hide it from the elders in your family?"
"Let's just say that I accidentally injured it," Mu Hongsheng blinked her eyes and looked at Zheng Ying with a begging expression: "I have been practicing martial arts with my brothers for a long time, and it is common for me to suffer some minor injuries on weekdays, so my grandmother and mother will not worry too much." Just ......"
"As long as I help you hide your recklessness, right?" Zheng Ying snorted coldly: "So that you can continue to be a hero who doesn't know the height of the sky next time."
"No......" Mu Hongsheng lowered her head weakly and apologized obediently: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't be angry anymore."
"I'm not angry." Zheng Ying replied quickly, as if she wanted to hide something: "I'm not your elder, you can't stand it or not, your family is worried about it, and it has nothing to do with me, so why should I be angry."
"Oh." Mu Hongsheng glanced at Zheng Ying secretly, as if studying his expression, and then showed a pitiful pleading expression: "Then, you won't tell my grandmother and mother right?"
Zheng Ying's face turned blue for a moment, and it seemed that he was about to explode, his sharp eyes fell directly on Xie Shurou, and Xie Shurou, who was so frightened that she shrank aside and pretended to be a quail, shook it fiercely.
Of course, Mu Hongsheng, who was very careful, noticed that Zheng Ying's eyes were not good, and she immediately moved her steps to help Xie Shurou block Zheng Ying's icy eyes: "Sister Xie almost died today, she is already frightened, don't scare her anymore."
Zheng Ying's lips moved slightly, but she tried to hold back what she wanted to say. His face looked even more ugly, and he really wanted to lose his temper right now. Recalling the scene he had just seen, he couldn't stop chilling in his heart until now.
Who the hell is scared? When he just recognized that the person hanging upside down on the edge of the cliff was Mu Hongsheng, the blood all over his body seemed to be frozen, as if his heart would not beat anymore, and when he hugged Mu Hongsheng's waist and picked her up, his hands were shaking.
He desperately told himself to be calm at that time, for fear that he would not be able to grasp it steadily, and accidentally let this girl fall off the cliff. If she really fell at that time, if it was......
Zheng Ying felt that he didn't dare to think about it......
However, after Mu Hongsheng made such a dangerous move and almost scared him to death, this conscienceless little girl actually began to worry about whether the Xie family girl was frightened? And there is no heavenly reason!
