Chapter 144: Assassination
"Well, there's a restaurant opposite, let's go up to the second floor, and we'll definitely see it there."
Her proposal was met with a double endorsement.
The two of them entered the restaurant, and Xiao Er immediately stepped forward and asked, "Guest officer, where do you want to sit?" ”
Mu Qing asked, "Is there any vacancy on the second floor?" ”
Xiao Er nodded, stretched out his hand and brought in, "Of course there is, of course there is, you please." ”
The second floor is all with compartments.
Mu Qing went up to take a look, very satisfied, the price on the second floor is more expensive, but fortunately, there are not many people, very clean.
They chose two window seats, just in time to see the jugglers below.
Xiao Er asked, "What do you want to eat for the guest officer?" ”
Mu Qing thought, since he was sitting here, he couldn't order nothing.
Looking at Shuang'er again, Mu Qing felt that he should order some special dishes.
So she looked at the menu and ordered a few specialties from the restaurant.
Lian Shuangzheng looked at the jugglers intently, and Mu Qing smiled dumbly.
"Like it so much?"
Lian Shuang nodded violently, "Hmm! I've never seen it before! ”
After saying that, she turned her head to look at the group of people again, her face full of amazement.
"It's amazing! Here's how to do it! ”
Mu Qing explained: "This is easy to say, but it is not simple, and it is difficult to say, and it is not difficult. ”
"How?" Lian Shuang was curious at this time.
"It's just a mouthful of oil in your mouth, and then you take a torch and spew out a mouthful of oil from your mouth to the torch, so that when the oil that is sprayed out ignites, it will look like he's spitting fire in the air."
Mu Qing explained that this acrobatic skill is also very common in modern times, and the principle is very simple, you can guess it.
Lian Shuang was surprised, "It does sound very simple. ”
Mu Qing nodded, "It's just that it's more dangerous, if you accidentally put the fire oil on yourself, it will be easy to burn yourself, and when you spray fire, it is easy to burn your face if you are not careful." ”
"That's why it's not easy, it's not difficult."
After listening to Lian Shuang's answer, there was still a trace of fear on his face.
should have been frightened by the "burn to the face" in the words, after all, for women in this era, face is life.
At this time, Xiao Er also presented the dishes, "Guest officer, use it slowly." ”
Shuang'er smelled the fragrance, and then shifted her eyes from the window to the table.
"These smell so good!" She picked up her chopsticks and was about to pick up the vegetables.
Mu Qing hurriedly pressed her, "Slow down, it's hot now." ”
It's steaming hot.
Lian Shuang obediently put down his chopsticks and carefully observed these dishes.
"What is this?" She pointed to the middle one.
Mu Qing looked at it and patiently explained, "Crab roe tofu." ”
"Crab roe tofu?"
"Well," Mu Qing nodded, "it's made by frying the tofu first and then mixing it with the crab meat." ”
Lian Shuang's eyes were opened, "Crab meat?" It's the first time I've heard of it! ”
Mu Qing was stunned, a little surprised, she hadn't eaten crab meat? Could it be that my hometown is close to the north?
Lian Shuang asked a few more dishes, and Mu Qing answered them one by one.
Mu Qing looked at the dishes he ordered on the table, most of them were seafood.
She was satisfied, the blind cat met the dead mouse, and it happened that Lian Shuang had not eaten much.
When the heat dissipated a little, Mu Qing said that he could eat it, and Lian Shuang immediately picked up the chopsticks, and went towards the crab roe tofu clip for the first time.
"Ahh It's so delicious! Lian Shuang exclaimed, "Is this red silk crab meat?" ”
Mu Qing nodded.
Lian Shuang couldn't care about Mu Qing's expression, just concentrated on eating the dish: "It doesn't taste good, but this dish is delicious." ”
However, the girl's appetite is still very small, and she can't eat a little.
She looked at the food on the table with a look of pity, "It's okay, I can still eat!" ”
Mu Qing grabbed her, "Don't eat it, be careful of breaking your belly." ”
Mu Qing stretched out his hand, touched her head, and said gently, "If you still want to eat, I'll bring you next time." ”
Lian Shuang was killed by her touching the head, and immediately became well-behaved, and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
Mu Qing looked at her and felt that she was just like her sister, and she couldn't help but pamper her.
The two of them sat down for a while, eating less.
The person who breathed fire downstairs was long gone, and he should have left while they were eating, and the two of them didn't pay attention.
After a while, there was a little sound in the air, Mu Qing was stunned, listened carefully, and found that it should be a whistle.
Just when she was wondering.
Lian Shuang also took out a small whistle from his neck, blew it twice, and the outside whistle disappeared.
Mu Qing couldn't help asking, "...... are you?"
Lian Shuang saw her looking at herself, and immediately said: "It was my brother looking for me just now, and the two of us have always relied on this whistle to communicate, and the sound of this whistle can travel far, far away." ”
Mu Qing is clear.
"Is he coming to you?"
Lian Shuang nodded, "Yes, when I go out, my brother has always been inseparable from me, but every day he has to do something by himself, and I only have that little free time every day!" ”
She said embarrassedly.
Mu Qing has warmth in his heart, this is a good brother and sister.
The two of them sat for a while, and suddenly, a man rushed over.
Lian Shuang exclaimed.
Mu Qing was also startled and immediately stood up, but it was too late to hide.
Just as he was about to bump into Mu Qing, suddenly, a person appeared, he grabbed Mu Qing's arm tightly, and pulled her away.
Mu Qing exclaimed, staggered a few steps under his feet, and almost fell.
Just didn't get bumped into by that man, otherwise this reputation would be doubted again.
The person who grabbed her also let go of his hand in time.
Mu Qing immediately stood firm, and then looked at him, a little surprised.
This man is the boy with a folding fan I met at the Lantern Festival last time.
"Thank you for the rescue." She saluted and thanked her.
Lian Shuang shouted in surprise: "Brother! ”
The man nodded with a soft face.
Then he looked at the man who bumped into him, and scolded coldly: "Get out!" ”
The man seemed to be drunk, and he bumped into him in a daze, and at this time, he was scolded by Brother Lian Shuang, and he immediately sobered up a little.
As soon as he saw Brother Lianshuang, he immediately ran out in fear.
Lian Shuang ran to his brother at this time and said with a smile: "You are here!" ”
The brother rubbed her head, "You're not careful, what if you get hit?" ”
Lian Shuang looked at him with admiration and said, "Isn't this a brother!" ”
The elder brother smiled, then turned to look at Mu Qing.
"Under the dress, Lian Shuang is my sister."
Mu Qing smiled lightly, "Mu Qing." ”
"Miss Mu, long time no see." The jumpsuit nodded in greeting.
Lian Shuang looked at the two of them and wondered, "Have you seen it before?" ”
Mu Qing replied with a smile: "I had a relationship before. ”
What she said made the dress raise her eyebrows, "It's not just a one-sided relationship, right?" There was a lot of talk at the time. ”
With that, he sat down to himself.
Mu Qing didn't expect him to say this, he was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses, at that time he also proposed to himself how to make Shen Shuang'er wake up, and he did say a few words.
"Yes." Mu Qing changed his words, these things are not argued.
They spoke mysteriously, and Lian Shuang was even more curious about what happened between these two people.
"Shuang'er," Mu Qing turned to look at Lian Shuang, "Since Brother Ling is already here, then I'll go back first." ”
Lian's big eyes were instantly lost, "Is Qing'er going to leave so soon?" Can't you play more? ”
Mu Qing shook his head, in the final analysis, Mu Qing is still a married woman, and when she goes out, she can't go with strange men, which will be gossiped about.
Mu Qing knew his identity as the third imperial concubine, and he didn't know how many people in the capital were staring at him, so he was still careful.
"It's getting late, and I should go back." Mu Qing said.
Lian Shuang nodded and agreed.
Mu Qing turned around and went downstairs.
Who knew that at this time, a sudden change occurred!
A dark dart flew straight towards Mu Qing, but she didn't know anything about it.
Lianyi kept looking at Mu Qing, and naturally saw this dark dart immediately.
He stepped forward quickly, opened the folding fan in his hand with a "click", and stretched out his hand to block Mu Qing's body.
The dart hit the folding fan, which was unexpectedly hard, and made a "ding" sound with the dart, and then the dart fell to the ground.
When Mu Qing was still stunned, he had already escaped the catastrophe.
Her heart was beating wildly, and she looked around and saw a crack in the window to the southeast, revealing a dark shadow.
Seeing that Mu Qing found him, the black shadow disappeared in an instant, I don't know where it went, the distance was very far, and it was too late to catch it.
Mu Qing tried to recover his emotions, but he didn't expect to meet the assassin, fortunately, he didn't succeed, Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and he almost returned to the west just now.
It seems that the next time I go out, I still have to bring a few guards.
Thinking of this, she remembered to save her jumpsuit, and she looked at the jumpsuit gratefully.
"Thank you Gongzi Lian, this is the second rescue."
The dress put away the folding fan, looked back at her, and joked unceremoniously:
"Miss Mu should pay more attention when walking, this dark dart has flown in front of her, and I haven't seen it."
Mu Qing was embarrassed for a moment.
Seeing the look on her face, a smile appeared in the dress's eyes.
"It seems that there are many dangers on the way back, and Miss Mu didn't bring a guard or anything, so let's escort you back."
The one-piece proposal was supported by Lianshuang.
"Yes, yes, Qing'er, you see that just now, something happened!"
They weren't surprised at all by Mu Qing's encounter with the Assassin, as if this kind of thing was quite ordinary.
Mu Qing's doubts naturally didn't dare to put them on the surface, she thought about it, what this dress said also made sense.
Although it is said that walking with him will cause trouble, it is better than losing your life.
The assassin didn't have time to catch him just now, and he didn't know if he would continue to attack on the way back.
So she nodded and agreed.
The three of them walked together, and Mu Qing deliberately pulled Lian Shuang to walk together alone, a little away from the dress.
This can also be regarded as avoiding suspicion.
The corner of the dress's mouth smiled, and then he continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.
Walking and walking, suddenly, a familiar male voice came into my ears: "Qing'er is really interested!" ”
