Chapter 34: The Visit of King Yu
What does it feel like to know that your sweetheart belongs?
Zhu Yi will always remember how she felt at that time.
She always wants to please Zuo Chu, so that Zuo Chu remembers herself. That girl is contrary to her, people can do nothing, and they can easily get Zuo Chu's affection.
She was ashamed of herself, and in front of the two, she was a little embarrassed.
She was at odds with them. At that time, she summed up the situation.
Zuo Qi said that Miss Song had a wound on her body, and asked her to seal the wound with a Gu, and she did so. When the girl's clothes were removed, Zuo Chu did not evade. Thinking that they were already so close, Zhu Yi couldn't hide the sourness in his heart.
For a long time, she asked in a muffled voice: "What is the girl's name?" ”
The girl ignored it, and Zuo Qi replied on her behalf behind her: "Xiyuan, Song Dongchen's sister." Zhu Yi nodded, entangled in whether to introduce himself, and listened to the warm voice from behind him: "Zuo's admirer." ”
She was silent. smiled, lowered his head and seriously cast the little Gu worm.
Song Xiyuan didn't say anything, his face was cold, and he had no interest in the person in front of him. The room was very quiet, and when the little Gu worm became a medicinal powder, she pulled on her shirt for Song Xiyuan. Zuo Qi thanked her politely, and said to her that he would leave for Qiancheng in the near future to plant blood for Song Xiyuan.
Zhu Yi said, "Okay." ”
After leaving, she went straight to Qiu Shui's room and pulled Chu Lin to inquire about Song Xiyuan's more information. Even though Chu Lin thought that he was "acquainted" with Song Xiyuan, people rarely talked to him, because he only knew a little bit about it.
Zhu Yi was discouraged, thinking that the person who made Chu Lin lose his soul was Song Xiyuan, he became annoyed and started to beat Chu Lin again, and said unreasonably hatefully: "I like her!" Even you like her! Chu Lin had a bitter face, not knowing how to comfort her.
In order to relieve her depression, she rode a horse to the grassland to relax. The grassland is vast, the wind is rippling, she is on the horse, trying to catch something, but every time under the sunset, she can only grasp herself.
Such a depressing thing has not yet been alleviated, and the person who made her even more depressed has returned.
Seeing that she was unhappy all day long, Wen Xi dragged her to wander the streets. When she was holding a belt and thinking about her thoughts, she heard a "Miss Zhu", she looked for prestige and saw Mu Shenyu in civilian clothes.
Mu Shenyu was dressed in Han people's clothes and looked at her with a smile. Zhu Yi's eyes widened in surprise, and then he stepped forward to give a salute, but was stopped by a hand. He shook his head to indicate that it was inconvenient to reveal his identity, and he made a simple salute.
She asked in a low voice, "What is the prince doing in the Northland?" ”
Seeing her bow her head and bend over like a thief, he lifted her by the collar and made her stand up straight, and said, "This king needs to report to you?" ”
Zhu Yi's back bent down again: "No, no, no, the folk girl can't believe that you appear here." ”
"Why do you have to believe it?" Mu Shenyu sneered: "I heard that your Mr. Chu is also there?" ”
Zhu Yi said, "Yes." ”
"I heard that there is an extra woman next to him?" He raised an eyebrow.
"Yes." After hesitating for a moment, she answered honestly.
Mu Shenyu smiled coldly: "Lead the way, this king will go and see him." ”
Zhu Yi glanced at him carefully, and saw that his face was not good, so he whispered: "Lord Wang, don't let the folk girl take you there, you can inquire, why don't you go yourself?" ”
She was afraid that Zuo Qi would misunderstand that she was colluding with King Yu. Seeing her like this, he didn't bother to embarrass her, and left a sentence: "Go back and bring a message to your Mr. Chu, this king will go to drink tea at night." After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left.
When Zhu Yi brought these words to Zuo Zhu, Zuo Zhu Liangliang raised the corners of his mouth, chuckled and said, "Sure enough, he doesn't give up." ”
She heard it in a fog, looked at Song Xiyuan, who was slightly flustered when she heard about "King Yu", and seemed to understand something.
After meeting Zhu Yixiao, Mu Shenyu went to Tu Qincheng's mansion.
He met Tu Qincheng for the first time, and on the surface, the guests and hosts were happy and polite.
Men talk about topics with each other, the world is from south to north, and ambition and pride can always say a thing or two, and before they know it, it is almost dusk.
The Northland does not belong to the Shokai, and its growing power makes the Curtain a thorn in the back. Talking about the trend of mountains and rivers, Mu Shenyu probed Tu Qincheng's tone, drank a sip of spirits, and asked: "The city lord governs this 10,000-mile Liaoyuan, but he can't do it?" ”
Tu Qincheng shook his head again and again, and replied to him: "Why can't you do it?" When it happened, I wanted to make the owner crazy. ”
Mu Shenyu laughed with an empathetic tone, and said: "For the master, you always have to worry about everything and do everything yourself." ”
Tu Qincheng nodded and poured another glass of spirits.
"This king heard the emperor's brother mention that I, Mu Qi, am planning to talk to the lord of the city about jointly governing the northern lands, and I don't know what the city idea is. Can the lord of the city meet with the envoys of the curtain in the near future? ”
Tu Qincheng glanced at him, seemed to hesitate, sighed at the end, and replied: "No, there is a dark pavilion that has come to surround me in peace." ”
Mu Shenyu slightly folded his robe: "Dark Pavilion? After thinking about it, I really couldn't think of a clue: "I don't know what kind of organization this dark pavilion is." If it is only about the friendship between the two states, will the city lord consider accepting it? ”
"This dark pavilion is just something unsightly. I don't know what it does to my Northland...... That's it, Lord Wang," Tu Qincheng saw that he pretended not to know, and he didn't break it, picked up a glass of wine, and saluted Mu Shenyu: "Come today, you are a distinguished guest, and the master is warmly entertained." If you are a politician, this scenario is inevitably out of place. Let's not drink it. ”
Mu Shenyu replied: "Reasonable, you and I don't talk about political affairs, just drink." ”
The two of them drank it all and laughed at the same time.
……
In the evening, Mu Shenyu went to the inn. Zuo Qi came out of the room with Song Xiyuan, and when Mu Shenyu saw this, his face was obviously gloomy.
The two saluted him, and Mu Shenyu approached Song Xiyuan, helped her up, and looked at her carefully. Song Xiyuan rarely goes downstairs on weekdays, Zhu Yi doesn't see her much, and she also knows that her temperament is extremely cold.
However, in the face of Mu Shenyu's gaze, she ducked her head evasively. Mu Shenyu frowned, smiled bitterly, and said, "You are so strange to me now, hehe." ”
Song Xiyuan was committed to giving a salute again, unwilling to raise his head. Zuo Chu invited Mu Shenyu to take a seat, Mu Shenyu glanced upstairs gloomily, and asked, "I don't know which room in Xiyuan is." ”
Knowing his suspicions, Zuo Chu poured a glass of warm wine and presented it to him, saying, "She is an innocent girl, how can Zuo sleep with her?" ”
Hearing this, Mu Shenyu's face softened slightly. He took the wine cup and snorted coldly: "Humble gentleman." ”
Zuo Chu toasted him, and his voice was cold: "The prince praises falsely." ”
Zhu Yi was in the room, clinging to the doors and windows, listening to the movement outside. She really wanted to know what the three people were involved in, but Song Xiyuan was too quiet and didn't speak, she couldn't help it, reached out and poked a hole in the window paper, and stared at it.
Mu Shenyu stared at Song Xiyuan from time to time, Zuo Qi poured wine for him, and asked: "The prince is here for Xiyuan on this trip to the north?" ”
Mu Shenyu glanced at him coldly: "Knowingly asked." ”
Zhu Yi instantly felt that the three of them were surrounded by coldness.
Zuo Qifeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked bluntly: "Xiyuan has no intention of leaving with the prince, why does the prince need to be like this?" ”
Mu Shenyu put down the wine cup, and his voice was mocking: "How does Mr. Chu know Xiyuan's intentions?" What she thinks of me, this king knows very well. When Song Xiyuan heard him say this, he finally glanced at him, his eyes flooding with hesitation.
"In terms of acquaintance with her, this king is earlier than you. Mr. Tsai also knows that Nishihara does not like to be controlled by others. If you want to get her by using Gu, it will be difficult for the strongman. ”
"Since the prince said so, why did the second invite Miss Zhu into the house that day?"
Mu Shenyu opened the folding fan and said with a smile: "Your little female guest has a relationship with this mansion." ”
Zuo Qi looked at the closed door of Zhu Yi and didn't say anything. After half a ring, he said: "Zuo left Xiyuan by his side to protect her." Zuo didn't want her to get involved in the fight in the rivers and lakes again, or ...... "Liang Liang glanced at the man who shook the fan," didn't want her to continue to work hard for the court, but in the end she would be disliked by the court. ”
Mu Shenyu was poked in the sore spot, and said angrily: "You don't slander my royal family!" ”
"Zuo didn't dare, but if the prince wanted to rob people, he had better think about how to exempt that palace rule first. Zuo remembers how she was injured when she came out of the palace. Zuo Chu picked up the wine cup, toasted him, and after saying this, Fang drank it all.
Mu Shenyu and Song Xiyuan slightly folded their hands in their sleeves at the same time, recalling the old things that were not very pleasant.
Zhu Yi in the room listened to the words, constantly deducing in his head, guessing what had happened to them. Imperial court, rivers and lakes...... This Song Xiyuan's identity made her particularly confused.
Mu Shenyu and Zuo Chu looked at each other for a long time, knowing that the other party would not easily let go and fight for Song Xiyuan.
On that day, the three of them were unhappy to see each other. After that meeting, Mu Shenyu did not stay in the north for long, and set off back to the royal capital a few days later.
