Chapter 54: The Winter Feast
"Let him sleep." Mu Yunyi turned her head and closed her eyes, she couldn't bear to look at her brother again.
But the letter he had just mentioned had not yet been clarified...... Are you sure? Meng Li's face was no longer as cynical as usual, and he hesitated that if he started himself, this sleep would be another month.
"Do it! Fast! Mu Yunyi shouted at Meng Li with red eyes.
Meng Li didn't think much about it anymore, pulled out the silver needle in the cloth bag on the side and began to apply the needle on Mu Yunduo's chest.
After a while, the room was quiet again, and Mu Yunduo fell asleep again. Mu Yunyi wiped off the fine beads of sweat on his forehead with a warm handkerchief, and covered him with a quilt, his younger brother's brows had been stretched out at this moment, but what Mu Yunyi's mind was full of was his pained and helpless face when he struggled and screamed.
"Let the prince have a good rest, let's go out first."
Mu Yunyi's body seemed to be evacuated, so he let Mu Xiu help him up and walked out of the house numbly.
Mu Xiu sent Mu Yunyi back to his courtyard, and seeing that Mu Yunyi was reluctant to enter the house, he accompanied her to sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard.
After that, there was a long silence, Mu Yunyi was silent, and Mu Xiu was silent.
Until Mu Yunyi spoke: "Mu Xiu, what letter did you say my father left?" ”
Mu Xiu shook his head: "I'm afraid that only the prince knows about it at present." ”
"But I can't watch Yun Duo suffer, I can......'t do it," she said as she closed her eyes again, resisting to recall her brother's time when he was awake and tortured by the poisonous Gu.
"In any case, we are sure that the prince has left at least one letter, and there will definitely be other clues later."
Mu Yunyi only felt extremely tired, Mu Xiu said this, like the only light in the abyss, she just wanted to use all her strength to believe, so she nodded stupidly, repeating this sentence repeatedly: "Yes, there will be clues, there will be ......"
In the blink of an eye, the winter solstice arrived, and a winter banquet was routinely held in the Dongzhao Palace to pray for the smooth and stable future of the year. The royal family and high-ranking officials brought their families into the palace for the banquet, Su Wu followed her brother into the palace early, and when she arrived at the Yaoxiantai of the winter banquet, Su Wu used the excuse of catching up with the ladies of the family who had not seen her for a long time, so she separated from her brother, and it was not until she was sure that her brother was seated in the banquet that Su Wu sneaked to the side hall that she noticed early in the morning.
At that time, Sikong Shaoyang happened to be explaining things to the Praetorian Guards on duty at the He Winter Banquet that night, and Su Wu stood behind the water tank in front of the hall and looked at him quietly.
After the Praetorian Guards received the order, Sikong Shaoyang came back to his senses and said in the direction of Su Wu: "Come out." ”
Su Wan lowered her head and smiled, and walked in front of Sikong Shaoyang step by step.
"Girl, why don't you go to the table, but run around by yourself."
Su Wan said in her heart, this Sikong Shaoyang really asked knowingly, "I have something for you." As she spoke, she carefully took out a bluestone-colored auspicious cloud crane pattern sachet from behind her.
Xu Wei remembered that the last time the hair crown was rejected by Sikong Shaoyang, and before he could speak, Su Wu said again: "You...... If you don't want me, ......"
Without waiting for Su Wu to finish speaking, the sachet in her hand had been taken by Sikong Shaoyang and held in the palm of her hand, since she came back from the Gloomy Continent, Sikong Shaoyang no longer deliberately avoided Su Wu, and even he began to yearn for it, eager to deliberately see Su Wu's warm smiling eyes like the warm sun every moment.
"It's air-dried pine needles and plum blossoms in here, I don't know if you like it or not......" Su Wan was surprised and happy when she saw him take it, and muttered in a red voice.
"Girl, I like everything you do."
Su Wu raised her head and met Sikong Shaoyang's serious and sincere eyes, the so-called emotion is nothing more than that.
Mu Yunyi was also ordered to enter the palace, she sat alone as usual, not talking to others, but found that the female dependents around her today looked at her from time to time, she had no intention of paying attention, but Bi Ying behind her leaned close to her ear, and said a little proudly: "Master, they are all praising your clothes." ”
Mu Yunyi looked at her dress today, the upper body was a lotus ruyi pattern cardigan, and the lower body was equipped with a purple dark embroidered plum blossom horse-faced skirt, which was indeed different from the cold plain clothes she wore every day. She recalled that before entering the palace today, Uncle Zheng held the ironed new clothes to her: "The slave knows that the princess doesn't like too bright colors, but this is the Winter Festival after all, if it is too cold, it is not appropriate, and this lotus color is warm and soft, but not too public, it is very suitable." ”
Mu Yunyi thought that it was really inappropriate for him to wear frost white, and Zheng Bo's clothes were indeed simple and generous, and Bi Ying beat the side drum on the side, so he took it and turned around and walked into the inner room.
At this time, there were also several discussions floating into Mu Yunyi's ears:
"I always thought that Princess Anhe was an ice beauty, and it was very appropriate to wear a gentle lotus color if she didn't want to."
"Look at the workmanship and materials, it must be from Huashang Pavilion, I'll go and take a look at Ming'er."
"That's it, people are from the West Dome, and they have grown up in the military camp since they were children, and their stature is already high, how can you and I compare." The red-phoenix-eyed woman who spoke was the step-room Qian of Tobe Shiro.
"What, women in and out of the barracks? Isn't that eating and living with the men? The round-faced woman beside her was surprised.
Qian Shi gathered the Tang Pozi in his hand and pretended to be mysterious: "But isn't it, don't you know that this Princess Anhe has grown up in the military camp since she was a child, otherwise how could others be called female generals?" She seemed to praise, but her eyes were full of disdain, and she deliberately raised her voice so that everyone around her could hear it.
"Master, don't listen to their harsh words, they are jealous, jealous!" Bi Ying glared angrily at the noble ladies sitting not far away, eager to go up and scratch their hypocritical faces.
Mu Yunyi didn't seem to care, picked up the warm Qionghua brew in front of her, and tasted it by herself, Bi Ying was relieved when she saw it.
However, in the scrutinizing and disdainful gaze, Mu Yunyi noticed a trace of unclear but inexplicable gaze, she looked up, but saw Chu Wu, the county lord of the Chu clan, at this moment she was talking happily with the noble ladies and daughters around her. Could it be your own delusion? But Mu Yunyi clearly felt that the gaze was indeed cast from this direction.
Think about it, this is the third time I have met with this Chu woman, He Dongjie even invited her own proton into the palace, not to mention the daughter of Chu who is now hot in Dongzhao.
After a while, the emperor and queen arrived, and everyone immediately quieted down and got up to salute.
Next is the same banquet in Mu Yunyi's eyes, no matter what country it is, the people in power always seem to be keen to show their achievements in creating a peaceful and prosperous world with singing and dancing.
From the beginning of her seat, Mu Yunyi felt that there was a beam of eyes hovering around her in the male banquet, she deliberately did not respond, and finally in the middle of the banquet, she was really uncomfortable stared at by that gaze, so she got up and left her seat, thinking about going to the back of the hall to breathe.
