Chapter 74: Invitation
Half an hour later, on the outskirts.
Iron Blood stopped the carriage and looked at it without finding anything abnormal, before turning around and saying, "General, it's here." ”
"Hmm." Mu Chen nodded, looked down at the person sleeping on his lap, and patted it gently.
He opened his eyes in a daze, "Uncle? ”
Mu Chen responded lightly, with an indifferent expression: "It's here, get out of the car." ”
Several people stepped out of the carriage, except for Mu Chen, who was as calm as ever, Song Mingyue and Leng Xi were fascinated by the scenery in front of them.
In autumn, the maple forest has a special taste, all the leaves are as red as the sunset, and it is very spectacular to look at.
Song Mingyue secretly glanced at the tall and handsome man beside her, she thought that she was just going out for a walk.
But the scenery in front of her seemed to tell her that Mu Chen was particularly interested in this outing.
Her face flushed slightly, and she approached the man's side, pretending to be indifferent, and said softly, "Thank you." ”
Mu Chen's eyes were always on her, seeing that she was satisfied with the scenery here, and her thin and cool lips outlined a beautiful arc.
"If you like it."
Song Mingyue pursed her lips and was silent, her face was slightly red, and the shyness in her heart made her feel a little awkward.
However, Xiao Xi is no longer on the same channel as them at all, and countless beautiful scenes have appeared in his mind and dreams, right in front of him.
He was excited, revealing the innocence he should have at his age, "Uncle and aunt, this place is so beautiful, it's like a dream." ”
It just so happened that butterflies had been surrounding him, slowly flying by, and he was attracted again, "Can I ask Big Brother Night to accompany me to the front to have a look?" ”
Mu Chen answered lightly and said loudly: "Iron-blooded night, you follow the little young master." ”
Although his people here had been investigated in advance, his vigilance had not slackened.
"Yes, master." The two of them said respectfully, and walked forward with a cold look to make room for the two.
For a while, only Mu Chen and Song Mingyue were left in the same place, and Song Mingyue's eyes were a little overwhelmed.
This maple forest is very vast, there is a stream next to it, and the river bank is a green and vibrant area, one red and one green has a strong visual impact.
Song Mingyue suddenly felt that her eyes were a little insufficient, and she couldn't take in all the beautiful scenery here.
Mu Chen's head tilted slightly, and she could see that she liked this place very much, and her voice softened, "If you like it, you will come often in the future." ”
"Then you can't go back." Song Mingyue came back to her senses, her appearance was cute and playful, completely different from her previous calm and indifferent.
Mu Chen looked at the smile on her face, a little fascinated.
Song Mingyue does not belong to people who are gorgeous at first glance, but her delicate goose egg face is very attractive.
Especially those clear eyes, like immortals who are not contaminated with the world, make it impossible not to pay attention.
"Don't be stunned, let's go." Song Mingyue walked a distance, looked back and saw him standing in place, unconsciously holding his hand and walking forward.
Mu Chen's body stiffened slightly, looking down at the warm little hands in his palms, his cold face seemed to be melted.
"Hmm." He nodded slightly, and followed Song Mingyue quietly and enjoyably.
It wasn't until she walked a long way away that Song Mingyue felt abnormal, she looked down at her clenched hand, and was so frightened that she immediately let go.
However, Mu Chen seemed to have noticed it, and a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, was this woman disgusting him?
Thinking about it, he clenched his hand tighter instead.
Song Mingyue's face was slightly red, and she wanted to pull her hand back, but her strength was not as strong as that of a man, "What are you going to do?" ”
"You took the initiative to take the lead, and you will be responsible until the end." The man's expression was indifferent, but he exuded a domineering atmosphere.
Song Mingyue's delicate brows furrowed slightly, why did it sound weird?
However, she tried back and forth several times, but she couldn't withdraw her hand, so she had to give up.
She is not a hypocritical person, and Mu Chen is a handsome guy, someone will rush to come to her on the street, she can partner with a handsome guy, what else is she not happy about?
sighed helplessly, "It's good if you don't dislike it." ”
Mu Chen felt her relaxation, and her nervous heart secretly eased, it seemed that she was not as resistant to herself as she imagined.
After perceiving this signal, Mu Chen was in a much happier mood, and said seemingly casually: "I won't dislike you, not in this life." ”
Song Mingyue's cheeks were slightly red, she just said it casually, but the man replied very seriously, which made her a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, after a while, they came to the place where the little one was resting, and Iron Will and Night had already set up a fire and were grilling fish.
"Uncle and aunt sit down, the fish will be cooked in a while."
They came out early in the morning, and although they brought refreshments, they would be a little tired and not full if they ate too much.
Song Mingyue nodded and sat beside him, but when she heard the little guy's breathing sound was different from before, she couldn't help but turn her head and found the little guy with a red face.
She was a little uneasy, although his illness was relieved, it was not completely resolved.
Thinking about it, she looked at Mu Chen and reached out to take his pulse.
Leng Xi knew her body, and she also knew that she was worried about herself, but she retracted her hand with some fear, shook her head and said, "Auntie, I'm fine." ”
When Mu Chen saw his movements, his handsome face immediately sank, and his sharp gaze fell on him.
Song Mingyue glared at Mu Chen secretly, as if to say that the little guy is still a child, what are you doing when you are angry with him?
At the same time, turning his head and gently holding his cold and thin hand, Song Mingyue took the pulse seriously, and a trace of concentration and rigor flashed on her face.
But when he raised his head and saw the look on the little guy's face, he rubbed his head distressedly, and hesitated: "Xiaoxi's body is recovering well, but we have been out for too long today, so let's go back in the afternoon, right?" ”
Although Leng Xi's current situation is much more than before, if the overload will put pressure on the body, then she will be kind and bad today.
Mu Chen noticed the slight changes in Song Mingyue's face, his expression turned cold, and said, "Dark night, you will send the little young master back to the carriage in a while." ”
"Uncle ......" Leng Xi was a little reluctant, he liked it very much, and wanted to see the maple forest at sunset here, but seeing Mu Chen's sharp gaze falling on him, even if he was reluctant, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
I had to compromise: "Okay. ”
Song Mingyue felt that the atmosphere was wrong, so she changed the topic and said, "The fish is cooked, let's eat it first." ”
But after this meal, the atmosphere was dull, and several people were eating with their own hearts, and they were not in the mood to enjoy the scenery.
When Leng Xi returned to the carriage, Mu Chen took Song Mingyue's hand and asked, "Is Xiao Xi's situation aggravated?" ”
He just saw the expression on Song Mingyue's face, but he didn't want to ask it directly in front of Leng Xi.
Song Mingyue nodded and sighed lightly, "Although Xiaoxi's situation is better than before, if I can't find the thousand-year-old ginseng, even I won't be able to let him spend next year safely." ”
Mu Chen was silent, the previous doctor asserted that the life span of Leng Xi was only a few months, and after meeting Song Mingyue, although it delayed time, it did not change the result.
It seems that he wants to go to the Tianshan Mountains in advance, and he is bound to find thousand-year-old ginseng.
He pondered for a moment and said aloud: "In a few days, I will set off for the Tianshan Mountains." ”
"Isn't there still half a month?" Song Mingyue was slightly stunned, but in a blink of an eye, she thought of the cold situation and suddenly understood.
"Xiaoxi's situation must not be delayed, and Tianshan should be sooner rather than later."
The weapons that were missing in the middle of the first battle of Shigu Mountain have been recovered, even if King Xuanyuan is unwilling, he will not be angry enough to carry out a counterattack in this special period.
After all, there are countless pairs of eyes in the imperial court staring at King Xuanyuan, as well as the coercion of the current saint.
And this is a good opportunity, he can take the opportunity to go to the Tianshan Mountains first, strive to find the thousand-year-old ginseng, and come back as soon as possible.
"I've got your back." Song Mingyue also thought of a point with him.
Now that King Xuanyuan's affairs are temporarily understood, the Song Mansion does not need to be an innocent backbiter, and she can rest assured.
Mu Chen thought for a while, and said with a serious expression: "In the next few days, I will arrange to send you back to the capital at night." ”
Song Mingyue nodded and agreed one by one.
Anyway, she won't go to the capital with her, she will follow Mu Chen to Tianshan Mountain, and as for Xiaoxi, she will also be taken care of by Dr. Jiang.
Mu Chen looked at her bright and delicate face, and was a little surprised that she would be so obedient, but it was not a bad thing in the end, so he didn't continue to think deeply.
The carriage stopped at the General's Mansion, and as soon as Song Mingyue stepped down from the carriage, she saw Shi Yi standing at the door, looking at it from time to time.
She frowned slightly, what kind of moth is Song Shiqi going to do recently?
"Miss, this is an invitation from my young lady, and it will be her birthday in a few days, and I hope you can participate." When Shi Yi saw her, he trotted over with a smile on his face.
