"Ugh." The cloud slammed the tray down on the table, frowning slightly.
Yunhua glanced at the delicate dishes on the plate, stopped playing with the abacus, leaned close to her head and complained: "Not a single chopstick move?!" No, this is what Mama Rong asked me to buy in Weixiangju, and it cost a full gold! β
Yun Duo glanced at the staircase, "After moving a few chopsticks, Mama Rong said that she would send it twice a day, but you see, how to serve this meal up and how to serve it down." β
Yun Duo glanced at the tray, drunken chicken, Dongpo meat, West Lake vinegar fish, jade shrimp crystal dumplings, it was a pity to throw it away.
She asked Yunhua, "Do you eat?" β
Yunhua had fear in her eyes, and shook her head again and again: "Don't eat, don't eat, go feed the rats in the South Wing." β
As the two spoke, two figures entered the open door of the store.
Mama Rong walked in with Mr. Mu.
It happened that Xiao Er from the restaurant next door came out to carry the wine, saw the medicine box that Mr. Mu was carrying, and greeted: "Mama Rong, there are patients at home?" β
Mama Rong turned around and smiled, her round face was full of kindness, "Oh, my young lady is sick and can't eat well, so I invited Mr. Mu from West Street." β
"Oh, that's going to have to take a look."
"Who's to say it isn't."
After Mama Rong finished greetings, she turned around and glared at Yun Duo Yunhua, the smile on the corner of her mouth condensed into indifference, "Keep an eye on it, no one is allowed to come in." With that, he hurriedly took Mr. Mu to the attic.
Yun Duo Yunhua nodded resignedly, hung a sign saying "Rest" on the door frame, and closed the door heavily.
"It's been a year since this girl was sent by Elder Yuechen, and it's the first time I've seen Mr. Mu here, do you think there will be something?"
"What can there be, good food and drink, nothing to do, like us, we have to grind those poison powders every night."
"But I see that Elder Yuechen likes her very much, and he steals to see her every three months, and he is not afraid of the Lord asking for sin."
"Grow into that fox blank, I'm a man and I like it."

Ying Zhichu lay on the bed, looking at the embroidery on the curtain and was slightly distracted.
"Knock knock." There were two knocks on the door.
Seeing that no one responded, Mama Rong gently pushed open the door and made a "please" gesture to Mr. Mu.
Ying Zhichu closed his eyes and pretended not to wake up. With her ears, she could hear someone approaching, it was two people.
Her hand outside the brocade quilt was gently grabbed, and Ying Zhichu opened her eyes in an instant and glared at Mr. Mu beside the bed.
Mr. Mu has been diagnosing patients and taking medicine for more than 20 years, and he has seen countless patients, but he still looked at Ying Zhichu, who was staring at him, slightly, how could he be called a good word with such clear and transparent eyes?
The Lord said that he had found a "good medicine", but he didn't expect it to be a wonderful person.
Mr. Mu put two fingers on the woman's wrist and said softly: "Don't be afraid, the old man is a doctor." β
Cautious and polite in his manners, he got up and followed Mama Rong to the side, and the two whispered.
"Mr. Mu, how is it, is it done?"
"Hmm."
Mama Rong's face flashed with joy, and her voice couldn't help but tremble, "Great! I will fly a pigeon and preach to the Lord this good news......"
"No need!"
Mama Rong looked surprised and wondered, "What does Mr. mean?" β
Mr. Mu narrowed his eyes and said word by word: "The Lord has an order, and he will set off immediately!" β
"This ......" Mama Rong looked embarrassed and hesitated.
Mr. Mu stroked his beard and said, "You go out first." β
"Yes."
Mama Rong knew that Mr. Mu was the Lord's confidant, and she didn't dare to obey her words.
Mama Rong gently closed the door, and when Mr. Mu turned around, Ying Zhichu was already sitting at the table.
She reached out and poured herself a cup of herbal tea, and said to Mr. Mu, who was about to come over, "Stand there." "There is a lot of vigilance in his eyes.
Mr. Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly, at such an old age, he still has to listen to the little girl's orders.
"Girl, do you know what disease you have?"
Ying Zhichu held the teacup and blew it gently, pretending to be in a posture, "Isn't it that you have poisoned me, locked up here, and will not see the light of day." β
Mr. Mu nodded, "Yes, you do have a strange poison in your body." Would you like to get out of here? β
Ying Zhichu lowered his eyes, fiddled with the crescent moon on his hand, and ignored it.
Mr. Mu took two steps closer, sat beside her, and said, "Don't want to go out?" Do you want to know the news of the Liang family? β
Ying Zhichu was not flustered, his eyes were slightly sideways, and his eyes seemed to be confused, "You want to threaten me?" β
Mr. Mu's heart flickered, and he secretly admired the woman's composure, and said, "It's not a threat, it's a deal." β
"Oh?"
"I am the Doctor Mu Xi of the Purple Moon Pavilion, you can call me Mr. Mu. The one who sent you here was the second elder of the Purple Moon Pavilion, Yuechen, the one whose face was scratched by you, is our Lord ......"
Ying Zhichu chuckled, "The old things from a year ago are still being talked about everywhere?" β
Mr. Mu didn't dare to laugh at this old matter, he sighed: "Your Liang family's twenty-seven lives, the girl will not take it to heart." If you didn't take it to heart, why did you bother to go to the Purple Moon Pavilion in the first place? β
Ying Zhichu couldn't help but echo, "That's true, if you didn't come to Purple Moon Pavilion at the beginning, how could you be used as a pawn." β
"Hehe, the girl's words are wrong. Since the Purple Moon Pavilion has accepted the girl, it will fulfill the girl's wish. β
Ying Zhichu said lightly, "You ...... What's the difference with those real murderers who killed my Liang family? β
She was desperate at the beginning, and she was guided by someone to strayed to die.
Now although they are trapped in this small cloth village, they also know that the things they do secretly are unseemly.
"Girl, don't you want to ask where the real murderer of the Liang family is now?"
"If you wanted to say it, you would have said it. What are you waiting for? β
Mr. Mu took the medicine box, opened and closed it gently, took out a white jade medicine bottle, and poured a pill from it, "This is the antidote, take it once a month, you will be cured after two years, and you will be able to regain your free body at that time." β
Ying Zhichu picked up the pill and swallowed it with herbal tea.
Mr. Mu smiled: "The girl believes me so much, aren't you afraid that I will give you poison?" β
"I don't believe it, but I know that you are reluctant to let me die." Ying Zhichu tilted his head, "I have obediently taken the medicine, so you can tell me, who is the one who slaughtered my Liang family?" β
"Scorpion. Yu Guo's No. 1 assassination organization, they disappeared without a trace two years ago, and recently we found out that Yu Dang had too close contacts with Sikong's family. β
"Sikongjia?"
Mr. Mu nodded, "Sikong Lin, one of the top five wealthy businessmen in Yu State, Sikong family. β
β¦β¦
In the evening, Xiao Er in the restaurant came out to pour swill and saw the carriage parked outside the cloth village.
Yunhua helped a woman in red to get into the car, the woman's face was veiled, and she couldn't see her true face clearly, but her slender figure was already superb.
"Yunhua, are you going to go far away?" Xiao Er looked at the luggage on the carriage and greeted.
Yunhua was shocked and said with a smile: "My young lady is homesick, I'll go home with her to see." β
"Uh-oh." Xiao Er didn't doubt him, and he wanted to go back after pouring the swill.
Ying Zhichu glanced in his direction, a dagger against her spine.
"Don't make a sound," Yunhua said in a low threat, "get in the car." β
Ying Zhichu obediently got into the carriage, and Yunhua secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Mama Rong dragged Yunhua aside and said, "You must be careful when you go to Jinjia City, if you lose someone, your life will also be lost!" β
"Yes, the slave knows!"
The carriage drove slowly down the road, farther and farther in the night.
Ying Zhichu sat in the car, and Mr. Mu's last words echoed in his ears.
"Only when the girl walks out of here can she have a chance of life."
