Chapter 29: Candle Tears (7)
"Send this to Gu Xiang, be careful not to let people catch it." Mu Yi put down the pen, dried the ink on the paper, put it in an envelope, and put it in a small bamboo tube around the black cat's neck. Touching the black cat's head, "Go and get back, we're going to light that last candle." ”
Coal nodded, then jumped on the windowsill and quickly ran towards the Qianyuan Palace.
As the sun fell, Mu Yi dragged the tired and tired black cat that was sleeping in her arms over the walls of the palace and slowly walked towards Zhaoyang Palace.
God, you're forcing me to dig someone's ancestral grave!
"Princess Zhaoyang?"
There was a sudden question behind him, Mu Yi was stunned, I haven't gone to planing yet, why did you come to me.
Turning around, he found that it was a person and not a ghost, so he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Ying Jieyu, haven't you slept yet?" ”
Bu Niannian nodded, and said curiously: "The princess just came back from outside the palace?" According to her observations, this Princess Zhaoyang is often not in the palace, and she has also squatted at various palace gates, but she has never seen her anywhere. So she guessed that this Princess Zhaoyang must have climbed over the wall to enter and leave the palace, so she circled around the corners of the harem every night, expecting to meet her.
Sure enough, Huang Tian lived up to his heart and finally let her meet.
Mu Yi saw that he was knocked over the wall and out of the palace by someone, so he was not in a hurry, he raised his finger and put it to his mouth and whispered: "Shh, God knows this matter, you know it, I know, understand?" ”
Bu Niannian smiled: "Understood." ”
Before leaving, Mu Yi told again uneasily: "Ying Jieyu, if you want to leave the palace, you can report to the emperor, don't learn from me." ”
Bu Niannian: Princess, I understand.
With Bu Niannian's lesson, Mu Yi avoided people next, and finally returned to Zhaoyang Palace. Putting the sleeping black cat into its own nest, Mu Yi walked to the dormitory.
Before, she suspected that there were too many people in the way, so she dismissed the palace people, leaving only one guard to guard the door. But now she regrets it very much, why didn't she leave one more palace person to look inside the Zhaoyang Palace for herself.
Gu Xiang watched the person in front of him staring at the pastries on the table, and said in a deep voice, "Do you know how dangerous this is?" ”
Mu Yi said in a muffled voice: "I know. ”
Gu Xiang looked at Mu Yi like this, angry, typical of actively admitting his mistakes, and resolutely refusing to change.
Seeing that Gu Xiang was still angry, Mu Yi lowered his voice, looked at him and said, "Gu Xiang, I have grown up and have the ability to protect myself, and I am no longer the child who was scared to cry by the evil ghosts by the Lechuan River." ”
Gu Xiang didn't refute her in the end, but said helplessly: "Don't let me meet a second time." ”
"No problem." Mu Yi happily responded, how easy it is, just pick the wall when you are not there. Thinking of the letter sent by Coal in the morning, it seems that there is already an answer, "How about what I proposed to you in the morning?" ”
"Do you really want to?" Gu Xiang was a little incredulous and added, "Xiao Qi is quite troublesome sometimes. ”
After Mu Yi finished eating a piece of Luohan cake and poured a cup of tea, "Why don't you want to, you took care of me so much at the beginning." Don't worry, follow me out for a walk, and after a few years, I promise to give you back a bold Gu Xiaoqi. ”
Gu Duan couldn't cry or laugh: "Just be bold." ”
"So you're leaving, it looks like I'm here at the right time."
A slightly regretful voice sounded outside the door, and then Coal broke through the window, jumped on Mu Yi's lap and complained pitifully: Lao Yi, the man outside is too bad, he bullied me.
Mu Yi regretted for the third time tonight that she didn't leave anyone in Zhaoyang Palace, so that there would be no situation where she didn't know that others were coming.
Qi Xuan was dressed in white and stood in the courtyard, the laurel yarn emitted a little silver light in the moonlight, holding a fan in his hand and shaking it for a while, looking at the person standing at the door with a shallow smile.
"Why, won't Lord Sanssouci invite me in and sit?" What's going on with this Huangquan envoy, obviously you invited me here, why did you look like you didn't expect to see a ghost.
Coal lay on Mu Yi's shoulder to accuse Qi Xuan of his crimes, and burst into tears. Mu Yi quickly came back to his senses, covered the mouth of the black cat that had not stopped, and a smile appeared on his face: "Lord Xingguan is coming, there is a long way to welcome, please come inside." ”
"Who's coming?" Seeing Mu Yi standing still at the door, Gu Xiang got up with some curiosity, looked at Qi Xuan in the courtyard and said, "Friend? ”
Mu Yi nodded at Gu Xiang: "Let's be a friend." ”
Watching Mu Yi explain to the man beside him, and then comparing it with himself, a trace of annoyance appeared on Qi Xuan's face, but it was quickly covered up. Introducing himself with a smile: "Qi Xuan." ”
Now it was Gu Xiang's turn to be surprised: "Qi Jun? "What a rampant name.
Mu Yi explained: "The one with the prefix of the grass."
The three of them sat around the table, Qi Ying and Gu Xiang looked at each other silently, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
In the end, Mu Yi couldn't help it, played a round, and said to Qi Xu: "This is Gu Xiang, the emperor of Western Chu, and he is my brother." He said to Gu Xiang again: "Qi Xuan, the star official of the Heavenly Court, helped me before. ”
After listening to Mu Yi's concise introduction, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then Qi Xuan said, "Didn't you say that you want to invite me to eat?" Pointing to the scattered snack plates on the table, he asked, "That's all?" ”
Gu Xiang smiled when he heard this, and said, "Guanqi, let the imperial dining room bring some dishes to Zhaoyang Palace." ”
The words Luo Mu Yi added: "More snacks." ”
"Yes" The official flag should be lowered and left, leaving the three people in the room to continue chattering.
"So I've just arrived, and you're leaving?" After listening to Mu Yi's story, Qi Ying asked, "Then what is the meaning of my coming?" ”
Gu Xiang said: "If the adults are willing, I can send someone to take the adults to play in Shengjing." ”
Mu Yi also chimed in: "I think it's feasible. ”
Qi Ying ruthlessly rejected Gu Xiang's proposal: "Don't." ”
"Then why don't you finish dinner tonight and leave tomorrow?" Mu Yi has a headache now, she never expected that Mu Yi dug a pit for her last time when she went back, and this pit was quite deep. thought that after saying goodbye to Huangquan City last time, she and Qi Ying would not see each other again, after all, she was very sincere in taking Huangquan City's special dim sum to thank her.
Who knew there would be such a thing now.
Gu Xiang nodded: Sure enough, it's you.
Qi Ying was choked up and speechless, and changed the topic after a while: "So you want to take that child to the southeast coast?" ”
"That's right."
A touch of yearning appeared on Qi Xuan's face, and he said longingly: "I heard that there are abundant products in that area and the people are simple. The scenery is beautiful and there are countless special snacks. ”
Seeing this, Mu Yi immediately picked up: "Why don't you stay in Shengjing, come with me." ”
"Since you have graciously invited, then I reluctantly agreed." Qi Ying's reluctant answer was really like a reluctant promise to Mu Yi.
"I don't think it's right." Seeing this, Gu Xiang immediately stopped it, and said to Mu Yi with his eyes: I think this kid has bad intentions, and this move is very inappropriate.
The black cat nested in Mu Yi's arms also didn't want to go with Qi Xu: Lao Yi, he is not a good person, he can't go with us.
Mu Yi selectively ignored the protest of coal, and did not understand Gu Xiang's words, thinking that he was worried about safety, and comforted: "It's okay, he can fight more than me in the world, don't worry." ”
Gu Xiang: That's not what I meant!
Qi Ying nodded with satisfaction while eating the pine nut crisp, your consciousness is very good.
