Chapter Ninety-One: Tempting Him
"Hahaha, you seem to be joking a lot lately, my lord?" Shangguan Bai Ming snorted haha.
Su Mujiu smiled, her thin pink lips lifted lightly, "Bai Ming, do you think this is a joke?" ”
Shangguan Bai Ming's heart was shocked, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes.
He steadied himself and let out a long breath.
"If you want to denounce me and go down the mountain immediately, I will definitely not do anything to you, if you follow me to the top of Wushan Mountain, and then try to escape, then there is only a dead end." Su Mujiu smiled lightly.
A ray of light fell on her cheeks, half hidden in shadows, half exposed to the glow.
Shangguan Bai Ming's five fingers gradually closed, and the breeze swept across his face.
The prince is testing him.
No, to be exact, to expose your mind completely.
Watch his reaction.
Before, he heard that the prince's life was not long in coming, and he really wanted to climb another high branch, so he disobeyed the yin and yang of Mu Wangye.
But now it seems that the prince's face is ruddy, and his expression is radiant, not at all like a person who stepped into a coffin with one foot.
Tanghuang's ability to cross the river and demolish the bridge has already been seen by his Shangguan Baiming family.
The Shangguan family is crumbling, if it weren't for Prince Mu's help, how could there be a Shangguan family in this world now?
Whether it's the current situation, it's still in the long run.
Following Mu Wang Ye is indeed a clear path.
But this betrayal of Emperor Tang is a big crime.
What should he do?
"Have you figured it out?" Su Mujiu's eyes were hidden with impatience, and she urged.
“…… Lord Wang, my Shangguan family is grateful to the Lord for saving his life, and Bai Ming is willing to swear allegiance to the Lord to the death! Shangguan Bai Ming knelt on the ground with a brush, he lowered his head, and the voice echoed in the hollow.
“……”
Su Mujiu stared at Shangguan Bai Ming, who was kneeling on the ground, with a gloomy expression, as if he was smiling.
After a long time, she finally turned around and began to climb up the hill again, "Get up." ”
Shangguan Bai Ming knelt for too long, felt his legs numb, and under Su Mujiu's order, he felt like he had been reborn.
The placket of his back was already half wet, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
He hurriedly got up, wiped one or two on his forehead with a handkerchief, and kept up with Su Mujiu's pace.
Su Mujiu did not deliberately wait, but used his internal force to move forward quickly.
Shangguan Bai Ming looked at Su Mujiu, who was still close at hand, and in an instant, he could only see his clothes, but he couldn't see his figure, he gritted his teeth and trotted forward.
This Mu Wang Ye is not as weak as the rumors, and it is different from what he has seen before.
Isn't the prince seriously ill, but it's just pretending?
In order to hide people's eyes and ears, and also to let Tanghuang relax his vigilance?
Shangguan Bai Ming thought so, and he felt a little lucky.
Fortunately, he finally chose to stand on the side of the prince, but he was still really worried about his little life.
Wait until Shangguan Bai Ming spent a lot of effort to catch up with Su Mujiu.
He saw Su Mujiu, dressed in fancy clothes, standing in front of a dry well.
Against the backdrop of the bleak scenery, her clothes fluttered, her long ink-colored hair fluttered wantonly in the wind, her cold white skin glowed with deeper coldness in the moonlight, and her clear eyes spread unknown emotions.
"Lord Wang......" He gasped and walked up to Su Mujiu and called.
"Hmm." Su Mujiu bowed his head, and his eyes stared directly at the dry well.
The next moment, she took a stone by her side and threw it directly.
I only heard a "bang", which was as dull as a blunt object.
"What's so special about this well, Lord Wang?" Shangguan Bai Ming didn't know why.
Su Mujiu walked straight to another well, and Shangguan Bai Ming quickly followed.
It is not difficult to see from the workmanship and color of this well that it is just a new well.
And Su Mujiu picked up another stone that was about the same size as just now and threw it in.
This time, the echo was incomparably crisp, and there was the sound of water splashing.
"Do you see what's coming?" Su Mujiu patted the dust on his hands and looked at Shangguan Bai Ming.
"The new well is shallow, but the old well is unfathomable." Shangguan Bai Ming replied.
"The steward once told me that the water in the old well would vomit and diarrhea after drinking it, so he dug this new well." Su Mujiu's tone was very calm, and his expression was clear.
"Lord Wang, what do you mean, someone in the old well has done something? To keep people from approaching? Shangguan Bai Ming's eyes crossed a look of surprise.
Su Mujiu bowed, she raised her head again, and returned to the side of the old well.
"Lord Wang, don't you suspect that this well water is related to the palace of the other courtyard?" Shangguan Bai Ming asked.
Su Mujiu propped his hands on the well, looking at the shallow moon in the well water.
Unconsciously, this moon also quietly climbed up.
"Bai Ming, it is rumored that there was a founding father in your family back then." Su Mujiu asked softly.
"Yes." Shangguan Bai Ming replied respectfully.
"Since you are a high-ranking official, you must know a little bit about the palace of the former court, can you tell me about it?" Su Mujiu asked unhurriedly, revealing her demeanor all over her body.
Shangguan Bai Ming lowered his eyes and began to reminisce.
"It is said that although this palace courtyard was built by the emperor of the previous dynasty, only the queen and others come to recreation every year in the scorching heat, and the emperor rarely comes."
"Oh?" Su Mujiu couldn't figure it out, the emperor spent a lot of time building a separate courtyard, but he didn't come to enjoy it, what is the reason?
"It is said that the water source in this annex is excellent, and it is used for bathing and washing all year round, and the skin is as delicate as clotted fat and smooth as ceramic, and it has the effect of beauty and beauty. In the previous dynasty, the emperor favored the queen, so this is actually a courtyard built for the queen. ”
Shangguan Bai Ming told everything he knew.
Su Mujiu's fingertips pinched his chin and rubbed it, and there was already some conclusion in his eyes.
It seems that the landlord did not deceive her, since this place was built for the queen of the previous dynasty, I am afraid that the entire palace courtyard is planted with her favorite snow forest grass.
And the word water source made Su Mujiu's conjecture seem to be confirmed.
She suddenly showed a smile and raised her eyes to look at Shangguan Bai Ming who was standing behind her.
"Bai Ming~"
Shangguan Bai Ming saw Su Mujiu's demagogic and beautiful smile, and a trace of surprise crossed his eyes.
The prince's stunning posture can indeed be called the first beauty in Beijing.
Even the beauties in the palace are inferior to her.
"What's wrong?" Shangguan Bai Ming calmed down and asked.
"Can you float?" Su Mujiu smiled like a spring breeze.
Shangguan Bai Ming replied: "The water nature is acceptable. ”
Su Mujiu got this answer, and hooked his finger at Shangguan Bai Ming, "Wait for you~"
Shangguan Bai Ming didn't have time to think about it, so he saw Su Mujiu holding the well, and jumped down without hesitation.
I only heard a "bang", which was the sound of falling into the water.
!!!
The prince actually jumped into the well directly!
Shangguan Bai Ming looked around, and finally gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and jumped down.
Lord Wang, never do things that you are not sure of.
