Chapter 148: The Two Talk
After nodding, Mu Zirong took a sip of tea gently, then stood up and walked in front of Wen Ruyi step by step, at this time Wen Ruyi still lowered his head, Mu Zirong couldn't see her face clearly at all, but he felt that her figure was a little familiar, I don't know why, a strange feeling also rose in his heart, he subconsciously frowned, and immediately ordered: "Raise your head!" ”
Wen Ruyi definitely didn't listen and refused to raise his head, the guard who wanted to invite credit saw that Wen Ruyi was so uncooperative, and immediately became angry in his heart, and reached out to help her raise her chin on his own initiative.
"Prince, it's this female spy, fortunately, my subordinates deliberately kept an eye on it at the time, and felt that this maid's words and deeds were a little strange, so she could be caught in time, what do you think this spy should do?" The guards wanted to invite credit, if they weren't afraid that Mu Zirong would be angry, they would have been eager to describe their merits vividly, and they even increased their strength to Wen Ruyi.
Wen Ruyi felt some pain in her neck, so she couldn't help frowning slightly, and a trace of discomfort flashed in her eyes.
When Mu Zirong saw Wen Ruyi's face, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then his eyes turned cold, and he immediately scolded, "Take your hand away!" ”
The guards rarely heard Mu Zirong speak in such a serious tone, and it seemed to be extraordinarily cold and angry, with a kind of silence before the storm.
The guard was also stunned, but he still obediently let go of his hand, and after he looked up and spied on Mu Zirong's gaze, he suddenly felt something strange in his heart, could it be ...... Did the prince take a fancy to this female assassin? Or is it ......
The guard lowered his head, wondering in his heart, of course he didn't know Wen Ruyi's true identity, but he just regarded her as an ordinary female assassin.
Mu Zirong recognized Wen Ruyi, but he never thought that he would meet in this situation, he really had nowhere to find it when he stepped on the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get there.
"The Prince?" The guard couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that Mu Zirong had been staring at this female assassin.
was suddenly interrupted from his thoughts, Mu Zirong felt a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't say it on the surface, but regained his serious expression, and his face changed a little, "Okay, you can just hand her over to this prince for this female spy, and you have nothing to do with the rest, continue to patrol." Mu Zirong waved his hand and was about to send them away.
The guards felt that today's prince was acting a little strange, but he didn't dare to disobey his orders, so he immediately nodded his hand, and then left with someone, but in his heart he was wondering if Mu Zirong really fell in love with that female spy? Because Mu Zirong's eyes staring at the female spy just now made people feel a little strange.
The guard kept gossiping in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface, and just left with his own people.
After these people left, Mu Zirong looked at Wen Ruyi on the ground, with an unpredictable look in his eyes, and after a long time, he said, "I didn't expect you to be able to do it to such an extent for him, just such a person came to my mansion, aren't you afraid of being caught?" ”
"Prince Mu, haven't they all been caught, what's the point of asking this?" Wen Ruyi was gentle and cold, even if he was in prison, he would not give in.
Hearing this, Mu Zirong didn't know what to think, and then slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, "I haven't seen you for many days, I didn't expect you to be so interesting, Miss Wen!" ”
"Mu Zirong, what did you do to the prince?" Wen Ruyi couldn't listen to his hypocritical appearance, and questioned him directly.
When Mu Zirong heard her question, his eyes couldn't help but dim a little, and the curvature of his lips was much lighter, "I didn't expect you to care about him so much, is he really so important in your heart?" ”
Mu Zirong looked at Wen Ruyi's gaze, and suddenly said such a sentence, Wen Ruyi couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't guess his thoughts.
"You don't have to beat around the bush, Mu Zirong, what did you do to the prince, how can you let the prince go? Didn't you say that you had to come to negotiate with me, and now that I'm here, let's start, and you can tell me what conditions you have. Wen Ruyi doesn't like to play dumb riddles with Mu Zirong, she only wants to know Chu Hongze's condition now, and she just wants to save him back.
Seeing Wen Ruyi's anxious appearance, Mu Zirong's heart suddenly had mixed feelings, he pretended not to care and lazily took a sip of tea, and never answered her, even if he knew that Wen Ruyi was in a hurry now, but he never spoke.
Wen Ruyi was even more angry when she saw Mu Zirong's careless appearance, but she was more anxious, because she was not sure what he had done to Chu Hongze, after all, these two people were mortal enemies, so she was anxious and angry, for fear that Chu Hongze would be injured in his hands.
"Mu Zirong......" When Wen Ruyi opened her mouth again and was about to lose her temper, Mu Zirong finally answered her, and personally stepped forward to help her up, with a shallow smile on her face, as if nothing had happened halfway, "Miss Wen, don't be so anxious first, sit down first." ”
"I don't need your help!" Wen Ruyi immediately shook off Mu Zirong's hand the moment he touched it, and his face was full of disgust.
Wen Ruyi endured the pain in her body and stood up noisily, but she still subconsciously took a step back and kept a safe distance from him.
Mu Zirong looked down at his arm that had been thrown away, not knowing what he was thinking, but his eyes were becoming deeper and darker, making people feel a little chilled.
Wen Ruyi met his gaze, but she didn't have any scared look, just looked at him directly, the expression on her face was annoyed and worried, she was only worried about Chu Hongze's condition now, and she wanted to know if Mu Zirong had done anything to him.
Mu Zirong stared at Wen Ruyi for a long time, he didn't know what he thought, he suddenly smiled, and the smile that looked very friendly became very dangerous in Wen Ruyi's eyes.
"What are you laughing at?" Wen Ruyi stared at Mu Zirong with doubts and scrutiny in her eyes.
Mu Zirong didn't answer, just gestured with his hand, and his smile was more helpless, "Miss Wen, you are too impulsive, how can we negotiate in this way, it is better for you to sit down and calm down first, as long as you calm down, we can talk about him well." When he said the last sentence, he deliberately accentuated his tone, meaning something.
He clearly pointed to Chu Hongze, Wen Ruyi naturally understood, and did not speak, just looked at him and observed him for a while, thinking a lot in his heart for a while, but he really didn't understand what he was doing.
"Prince Mu, I have already said it just now, if you have something to say, you don't have to beat around the bush, and if you have any requirements, just say it, where we can negotiate, we can naturally negotiate." Wen Ruyi still likes a crisp and neat method, and doesn't like such ambiguity, not to mention that this matter is still related to Chu Hongze's life safety.
Mu Zirong heard the worry and impatience in Wen Ruyi's words, he didn't speak immediately, but turned around and returned to his seat.
"Sit down." After sitting down, he nodded at Wen Ruyi, pointed to the position behind her, and motioned for her to sit down first, "Miss Wen, drink a cup of tea first to dissipate your anger, calm down, you don't have to be in such a hurry, we can say anything slowly." ”
Mu Zirong's attitude is really casual, and she is not in a hurry at all, Wen Ruyi can't figure out his thoughts, but she still sits in front of him, after all, now the initiative is in Mu Zirong's hands, and she can only do it obediently.
The hall is very quiet, Wen Ruyi sat quietly and watched Mu Zirong skillfully cook tea, the tea slowly flowed down the wall of the white porcelain cup, making a pleasant sound, a pool of clear tea in the cup, a few pieces of tea floating on the surface of the water, churning up and down along the water, rotating in harmony in the cup, like dancing.
The two of them were silent, so silent that the chill in the air seemed to be a little more.
The moonlight outside the window slanted into the house, and the bright moonlight was reflected in the tea cup to form a blue fall, and the sparse stars were like jewels embellished, everything seemed so quiet and serene.
Seeing that Mu Zirong still refused to get to the point, Wen Ruyi gradually relaxed, since Mu Zirong refused to say it, she couldn't force it, so she could only accompany him to consume it.
Thinking of this, Wen Ruyi took a sip of the tea cup with peace of mind, the white porcelain tea cup set off a burst of blue waves, the tender green tea leaves appeared more transparent, through the tea cup, it was a refreshing and rich tea fragrance, the smeller was intoxicated, I didn't expect Mu Zirong, who was the prince of a country, to have such good tea skills.
The aroma of tea reflects not only the smell of tea, but also the mood of the tea cook.
The tea cooked by Mu Zirong seems to have been injected with a certain amount of effort and energy, and it seems to be carefully cooked for the arrival of the woman in front of him, this is the picture he has been waiting for and looking forward to for a long time, and he feels so relieved and comfortable, and the boring mood of the past few days seems to be relieved at this moment.
Wen Ruyi frowned, and the good Longjing in front of her became tasteless, although she tried her best to persuade herself to be patient, but she didn't have the energy and spirit to taste tea at all now, and all she was thinking about at the moment was Chu Hongze's safety.
"Now that the prince is in the hands of Mu Zirong, life and death are uncertain, I think it's because the prince still has use value for him, so he won't kill the prince, and it should be fine, but after all, it's hard to rest assured, it seems that he can only outwit." Wen Ruyi thought, her face became darker and darker.
