Chapter 26: The Abbot Wisdom and Purity
Mu Yun looked at the humanoid sword rack lightly and said, "You go first, be careful not to be discovered." ”
Qiong Lou got the order, turned into a black wind, and blew out of the window - this familiar posture is obviously used to this way of getting in and out.
"......" Xiao Yuexi looked at Mu Yun and was speechless for a while, and then said, "The people who can't see the light are gone, should you ask a doctor to take a look?" Why haven't you seen you for a day, your voice is so hoarse that you are about to be speechless? ”
Mu Yun chuckled and didn't answer, just beckoned to her. Xiao Yuexi sighed and walked over appointingly, but was suddenly pulled to his side by surprise.
The chair was very wide, Mu Yun moved it slightly, let Xiao Yuexi sit beside him, and said a little lazily: "I'm fine, just take some cold medicine before going to bed." ”
Xiao Yuexi frowned and was about to refute, but Mu Yunqing said again: "There are still some folds that I haven't read, wait for me for a while, huh?" ”
Listening to his hoarse voice, Xiao Yuexi completely lost her temper, looked at Mu Yun, who was struggling to write, sighed lightly, and asked softly, "Have you had dinner?" ”
Mu Yun's hand holding the pen did not pause, and said indifferently: "Hmm...... I don't care about eating, I'll talk about it later. ”
Xiao Yuexi finally knew He Tonghe outside, crying and mourning, and felt that the sky had fallen.
“…… Shall I get you some food to eat? ”
Mu Yun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xiao Yuexi: "Yo! Are you going to cook for me? ”
Xiao Yuexi rolled her eyes and said angrily: "Do you want to eat?" ”
Mu Yun nodded happily: "Eat!" ”
He Tong was worried about pacing back and forth outside the palace gate, seeing that Mrs. Xiao had not heard any movement inside for so long a day, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when he saw Mrs. Xiao, who he had "high hopes", pushing the door out, with a faint expression that could not see the emotion, and couldn't help but ask cautiously as if facing a great enemy: "Mrs. Xiao?" This...... What did the emperor say? ”
Xiao Yuexi said: "I'll go get some food for the emperor, there is a small kitchen in the Qinzheng Palace, right?" ”
“…… Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Minions, this will show you the way! ”
He Tong was about to cry with joy, and said in his heart that this Mrs. Xiao is really not ordinary, she is willing to eat as soon as the emperor comes!
Xiao Yuexi is not good at cooking, and when she is in the house, she can cook noodles at most, but at the moment, it is just right to take care of Mu Yunqing's sick and crooked physique, which is simple and convenient. Xiao Yuexi didn't alarm the cook, only He Tong was next to her to make a fire, and quickly cooked a bowl of noodles - well, it was not good-looking, the heat was too big and the noodles were cooked, and the thick bowl didn't know what it was, and under the faint candle flame, you could still see the traces of the green vegetable leaves inside......
“……”
“……”
Xiao Yuexi "looked at each other" with the bowl - or the lump of noodles for a moment, defeated the battle, and said dejectedly: "Father-in-law He, let's ask the cook to work hard......"
He Tong: "Uh, this ......" Although the emperor dotes on Mrs. Xiao, can such a bowl of things really enter the mouth of the saint? Although Mrs. Xiao herself seems to know that this bowl of things is not good, isn't it too shocking to invite the cook directly? The two voices argued back and forth in He Tong's heart, and he couldn't come up with an idea for a while.
"Father-in-law Ho?" Xiao Yuexi couldn't help but wonder when she saw that he didn't move for a long time. "I remember that there will be some food left in the imperial dining room for the masters to add supper at night, right? Why don't you go and see if there is anything light and stomach-nourishing for the emperor to eat? ”
He Tong hesitated again and again but went out. When he went out, he exclaimed: "Your Majesty? ”
Xiao Yuexi's first reaction was to pour the bowl of unknown objects, but the porcelain bowl was placed there for a long time, and it was the time when it was hot, Xiao Yuexi was caught off guard and retracted his hand, Mu Yunqing had already walked in with slender legs, and the bright yellow seemed to make the dim small kitchen a lot brighter.
"What? Hot? Mu Yun frowned lightly, carefully picked up Xiao Yuexi's hand and blew it, seeing that there was not even a red mark left on the slender hands, then he reassuredly shifted his gaze to the stove behind Xiao Yuexi, pointed to the bowl - the face asked, "This is made for me?" ”
Xiao Yuexi shook her head, and then shook her head again: "No!" I don't know what it is, let's go! Let's go back and wait, I'll ask Grandpa He to get food. She regretted it a little at the moment, regretting that she resisted so much when Ji Bingxin wanted to teach her to cook, and now such a humiliating scene has happened, it is really retribution!
Mu Yun easily picked up the small stools that the two cooks used to rest, pulled Xiao Yuexi to sit down, looked at the bowl of noodles and said, "I didn't expect you to make anything, so it's good." After being hungry all night and having a bit of a stomach ache, a bowl of hot noodles couldn't be more suitable. ”
Xiao Yuexi: "......" is really hard for you to be old and still be able to see that it is a bowl of noodles. "Hey! Don't ......"
Before he could stop it, he saw Mu Yun lightly pick up the spoon and take a sip of the noodle soup, and said very sincerely: "Hmm! Tastes good. ”
He Tong, who was ordered to wait outside the door, was so frightened that he almost fell over when he saw this scene.
Xiao Yuexi was stunned, and it wasn't until Mu Yun took a few bites that she reacted, and said in surprise: "You, you...... Don't be reluctant, don't eat if it's not delicious......"
Mu Yun chuckled lightly and his eyebrows curled, and he said very naturally: "It's not reluctant, it's just that the heat is too much, and the taste is still good, do you want to try it?" As he spoke, he took half a spoonful of noodle soup from the spoon he had used and sent it to Xiao Yuexi's lips.
……
The surroundings were so quiet that it was weird, and Xiao Yuexi looked at him for a while without moving.
Mu Yun chuckled, and naturally withdrew his hand and put the half spoonful of soup into his mouth: "Don't forget it." ”
In the end, His Majesty the Emperor ate a bowl of what could barely be called noodles under Madame Xiao's dull gaze, and there was not even a mouthful of soup left. After eating, the whole person seemed to have become energetic, holding Mrs. Xiao's hand all the way, and leisurely walking in the direction of Qingliang Palace.
Xu was just finished eating something hot, Mu Yunqing's hands were very warm, and the temperature spread to Xiao Yuexi's heart along the hands of the two of them. The picture in the small kitchen just now, now that I think about it, I unexpectedly feel a little beautiful......
Back in the Qingliang Palace, Mu Yunqing finally did not recklessly invite the imperial doctor to come over and take the medicine, Mu Yunqing, who was already busy for a day, was even less energetic, and fell asleep after lying on the couch for a short time.
Xiao Yuexi thought about what she couldn't tell what it was, and spent the night half-asleep.
The next day, the Son of Heaven who went out of the palace to pray for blessings was not a sick Son of Heaven after all.
Mu Yunqing's foundation is considered good, and he will be able to get into the wind and cold with a pair of medicines, and he got into the carriage and went to the Hanshui Temple with a radiant face.
The epidemic is serious, and Tianzi is very low-key when he travels, everything is simple, and he looks very good.
Xiao Yuexi lifted the corner of the carriage curtain, saw the familiar streets and alleys through the people kneeling along the way, and suddenly missed the general's mansion back then, now the Pingnanhou Mansion......
Lowering the car curtain, Xiao Yuexi sighed softly, and then found that she had become so sentimental at some point, sighing and worrying at every turn, without the fearlessness and high spirits of her youth.
Mu Kom has always been careful and poisonous, especially knowing Xiao Yuexi, as soon as he saw her expression, he guessed the roughly, and asked softly, "Madame misses the Hou Mansion, right?" ”
Xiao Yuexi didn't answer, but Mu Lan said heartlessly: "Don't talk about Madame, I have thought about it a little...... Grammeg, let me go next time Madame sends something to the house! It's always you running out, so it's my turn, right? ”
Glancing at her, Muko didn't say anything she wanted to express - do you want to go home? You clearly want to take the opportunity to desert and go out! Mu Kom didn't pay attention to her, just looked at Xiao Yuexi and said, "Madame is right not to let her out!" ”
Xiao Yuexi smiled, and the gloom in her heart finally dispelled a little.
Hanshui Temple is the largest temple in Yelan country, stained with royal light, and the incense is prosperous.
It's a shame to say that Xiao Yuexi herself has never been here. She is a person who doesn't even need incense, and it is really a crime to come here, plus the official affairs of the envoy of the State Supervision Department are also very busy, and she has no time to drink with the people below, mix their mouths, and fight with the people below, which one doesn't have to go to the temple to incense?
Although Ji Bingxin always wanted to drag her over, he never succeeded. This time, with the light of the Son of Heaven's blessing, she could even have the opportunity to see the true face of Hanshui Temple.
With a complicated heart, Xiao Yuexi followed the middle of the team, watching Mu Yunqing and the abbot Zhijing politely say a few words, and watching Zhijing make a "please" gesture, always feeling that something was strange.
Zhijing is the abbot who took over three years ago, it is said that he is a young but quite wise monk, Xiao Yuexi went south and north faintly heard some things about him, but did not have the leisure time to know more and pay more attention.
The first time I saw it, I felt very bad, I can't say what it felt, this master who looked ordinary and followed, there was a trace of suspicion invisibly, which made Xiao Yuexi have an illusion that there was something dangerous hidden under his plain appearance......
Xiao Yuexi didn't know if her intuition was accurate, so she had to pay more attention, and kept her mind clean along the way, but she never found anything abnormal.
Is it an illusion......
"Huh? What did Madame say? ”
Mu Lan's question in a low voice brought Xiao Yuexi back to her senses, it turned out that she had accidentally muttered her inner thoughts in a daze just now.
Xiao Yuexi hurriedly replied: "It's nothing ......" and then looked at Zhijing, but he looked at him in a hurry, Xiao Yuexi saw an extremely dangerous thing in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little creepy.
It's so bizarre! She'd never been in this situation, and she'd never met anyone like that. At that glance just now, Xiao Yuexi actually had a feeling of looking at the beast!
I don't know if Mu Yunqing, who was walking in front, also sensed something, they stopped suddenly, and the not huge team stopped together.
