"Drunk." Xie Chongning lay flat on the bed, his voice a little more hoarse and lazy.

The corners of Mu Yu's mouth twitched twice unconsciously, "I haven't seen anyone who is drunk, saying that he is drunk." ”

"Really drunk." Xie Chongning didn't admit it even if he was killed.

"Okay, you're drunk." Mu Yu took a deep breath and handed the towel in his hand to Xie Chongning's hand, "You wipe your face by yourself." ”

"I can't lift my arm." Xie Chongning continued to open his eyes and talk nonsense.

"......" Mu Yu looked at his hand holding the soaked towel on his chest, and soon his chest was wet, and he had no choice but to take back the slightly cool towel, wash it in hot water, and help him wipe his face.

Obviously he was not drunk, and he learned to call himself, "Do you think that this Guangping Hou is a little wrong?" ”

"Huh?" Xie Chongning made a sound slowly.

"Isn't it strange that a Hou Ye is so flattering to the Dali Temple of Sanpin?" After Mu Yu finished speaking, he felt that there was a problem with his expression, "I'm not saying that your position is low, but Master Hou is a first-class official, and he will have some shelf in doing things." ”

She stared at Xie Chongning's unchanged face, and at this time, Xie Chongning also stared at her intently, as if she was really drunk.

"You...... You can't really get drunk, right? She lowered her brows, her slender five fingers shook in front of Xie Chongning, Xie Chongning slowly grabbed her soft hand, pressed it on her chest, like a snail, and nodded.

"I'm really drunk." She muttered novelly, she had never seen a drunk person with such clear eyes, and she almost misunderstood that Xie Chongning was pretending to be drunk.

"Forget it, since you're drunk, rest early, I'll talk to you tomorrow." Mu Yu pulled out his hand and pulled the quilt on the corner of the bed and covered Xie Chongning's body. "You go inside."

Xie Chongning did not react.

"The two of us are going to be squeezed into the same bed these days, you go in a little bit and give me a place." Anyway, they were all in the same bed last night, and the two of them are not at peace with each other as usual, and she has nothing to be pretentious about as a modern person.

Xie Chongning stretched out his big hand from the quilt, patted the inside of the bed, and didn't say anything.

Seeing his interesting movements, Mu Yu couldn't help but chuckle, "Who are you letting me in?" ”

In response, she continued to clap her hands twice on the bed.

"Got it, got it, don't shoot it." Mu Yu chuckled, she really hated that there was no mobile phone in ancient times, otherwise she would have to record Xie Chongning's seemingly clear stupid behavior, which would definitely make her laugh for a lifetime.

She cut off the candle flame, wrapped around Xie Chongning's legs, and climbed onto the bed, she turned her head slightly, looking at Xie Chongning's side face by the moonlight, the man's nose was high, and his long eyelashes were still slowly stirring, like a butterfly resting on the leaves.

Sure enough, she was drunk, she chuckled twice in her heart, although Xie Chongning was still expressionless at this time, but he also did not have the usual indifference, and he was less aggressive.

Xie Chongning turned his head slowly, there were obviously a pair of black eyes in the night, but they were as bright as night pearls, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"Hard for me?" Mu Yu snorted lightly, "It's not too hard, you don't play crazy when you're drunk, quiet and cute." ”

"Cute." Xie Chongning repeated her words meaninglessly,

"yes, it's cute." Suddenly, a kind of sourness hit my heart, "You have also worked hard, and you have been bearing so much alone." ”

"I've worked hard, too."

"Are you a repeater?" Mu Yu turned completely sideways, supporting his head with one hand, "Do you know what a repeater is?" ”

"Chickens?" The innocent Xiao Xie shook his head stupidly. "I know the rooster hen."

"None of those." Mu Yu is a repeater, "You are a repeater, always repeating what others say, you are a repeater." ”

"Oh." Xie Chongning replied coldly.

"Why don't you repeat it this time?" Mu Yu asked with a smile.

"Sleepy, sleep." Xie Chongning said in a muffled voice, pulling the quilt and covering Mu Yu with him, Mu Yu looked up and saw that he really closed his eyes and was ready to sleep, so he didn't have the heart to tease him, closed his eyes, and went to play chess with Zhou Gong.

When Mu Yu fell asleep, Xie Chongning wrapped his long arms around her, hugged her into his arms, and closed his eyes contentedly.

Early the next morning, Mu Yu walked out of the house refreshed, and happened to meet the housekeeper who hurriedly passed in front of him, and the housekeeper smiled and said good morning, "Dare to ask Mrs. Xie, is Lord Xie in the room?" ”

"Not there." Mu Yu shook her head, when she got up, she didn't see Xie Chongning, she thought that Xie Chongning was invited by the Marquis of Guangping, but it didn't seem to be.

"The troublesome lady saw the lord, and went to the front hall to have breakfast with the marquis." The butler's expression flashed with panic, but he quickly adjusted his mood.

In that short moment, Mu Yu thought that he was wrong.

"Master Hou is still waiting for us in the front hall? That's really embarrassing, the housekeeper might as well let Hou Ye eat first, my lord is used to getting up early on weekdays, presumably this time he got up early to exercise. ”

"Your Excellency still has such good habits." The butler smiled.

Mu Yu pursed his lips and nodded with a smile, "If the housekeeper has something, let's go and get busy first, I'll go find the adult and ask him to hurry up and go to the front hall to have breakfast with the Hou Ye." ”

"No, no, I'll go find Master Xie, and Madam, you can go to the front hall." The housekeeper waved his hand and was about to leave, for fear that Mu Yu would follow.

The more he was like this, the more curious Mu Yu naturally became, she quietly remembered it in her heart, but she didn't insist on following the housekeeper to find Xie Chongning.

As a result, she was walking towards the front hall, and she happened to meet Xie Chongning, who was also going to the front hall, "Got up so early?" Can you sober up? ”

"I'm not drunk." Xie Chongning was serious and did not have any flaws.

If she hadn't had that conversation with Xie Chongning last night, she would have been willing to believe that Xie Chongning wasn't drunk, but now she couldn't forget Xie Chongning, the repeater.

"Do you still have a headache?" She thought about it, but still saved Xie Chongning his stubborn face.

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Xie Chongning replied softly, "Eat a good meal later, remember to wear a veil." ”

Mu Yu took a few steps closer to him and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "What, what did you find?" ”

Xie Chongning lowered his head and looked at her meaningfully, it seemed that this little girl had discovered something?

"I always feel that this Guangping Hou is tired." Mu Yu bit his lower lip, "You see that this Guangping Hou seems to be enthusiastic, and he has been pouring you wine, and whenever we mention that there is an epidemic in this Yancheng, he is like a cat who has been stepped on his tail, if it is really okay, how can the reaction be so intense." ”

"It's just that he has a problem?" Xie Chongning's eyes were interesting, he had long known that Mu Yu was smart, but every time Mu Yu focused on it, it made him feel a sense of novelty.

"Of course not." Mu Yu was suspicious and turned to the housekeeper, "You came out early this morning, and you didn't meet the housekeeper, this housekeeper must be an insider, he heard that you were wandering in the yard, and his body immediately tensed up a little unnaturally, and he didn't let me come to you, he must be afraid that we will find something." ”

"You're missing a point." Xie Chongning leaned over slightly, approaching her pale pink ears.

Mu Yu was stunned, what else did she leave behind? "I think I've been observing quite carefully, so what do you say I'm left behind?"

"When you entered the city, did you notice anything unusual?" Xie Chongning asked inductively.

Mu Yu took a breath and lowered his brows, "It's really a little strange when you enter the city, compared to other cities, this wild goose city is a little exaggerated, it seems that it was deliberately shown to outsiders." ”

Xie Chongning nodded at her appreciatively, but he was still waiting for Mu Yu to continue.

"What else?" Mu Yu tilted her head, she really racked her brains, "You tell me, I really can't think of it." ”

Xie Chongning raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his rough big hand smoothed her little head, with a little encouragement, "You have found enough, no matter which city it is, the street connected to the city gate, although people come and go, it will not be designed as a lively market, and the number of vendors on both sides of the road will also be controlled to a certain number, just to prevent the convenience of passing pedestrians." ”

Mu Yu nodded suddenly, this is indeed the case, no matter where the city sits, the vendors on the main street are separated by a few feet, but this Yancheng is strange, the stalls on the main street are next to each other, no wonder she thinks that this Yancheng is surprisingly prosperous.

"And ......," Xie Chongning paused.

"And?" What else did she ignore?

"This Yancheng is not a place where businesses must pass, and passers-by rarely enter Yancheng, so most of the people in Yancheng are locals. But when we entered the city, most of the pedestrians, including the vendors, spoke with foreign accents. ”

Listening to Xie Chongning's analysis, Mu Yu suddenly felt creepy, this Xie Chongning was still a human being, and he observed so carefully! "So according to your observations, the prosperity in this city is actually an illusion."

But why did the Marquis of Guangping do this? Why do you want to whitewash the peace and disguise the appearance of the people living and working in peace and contentment? "If he does this, could it be that the real people in this wild goose city have ......"

She didn't dare to continue to speculate, she couldn't imagine how much unknown cruelty was hidden under this seemingly prosperous situation.

"Could it be that we are too much of a soldier, maybe the people in this wild goose city have successfully escaped from other cities?" She asked reassuringly.

Xie Chongning didn't debunk her hopes, but he didn't affirm her guess, "What do you think?" ”

"Forget it, let's eat first." Mu Yu walked weakly to the front hall.

Impatience had already appeared on Guangping Hou's face, and it seemed that he had really been waiting here for a long time, but when he saw Xie Chongning and Mu Yu appear at the door, he immediately changed to a smile again, "Lord Xie, why did you come so late, come on, this breakfast is going to be cold." ”

"Let Hou Ye wait for a long time." Xie Chongning greeted politely.

As soon as he sat down, Guangping Hou asked with a smile, "The epidemic situation in the south is serious, when is Lord Xie going to leave?" ”
