Chapter 136: Doubts of the Years (8)
Mu Yun lightly stabilized Xiao Yuexi's body, and then blamed and said, "What important thing do you have to run out to say?" Go back! ”
Xiao Yuexi didn't care about anything, pulled Mu Yunqing all the way to the inner hall, and hurriedly dropped the sentence: "You all go down!" And he dismissed everyone.
Mu Yunqing saw her solemnity and fell silent, let her sit down, and silently looked at her and waited for her next.
"Ah Shuang heard something, the prescription Li Ran prescribed at the beginning was indeed the hand and foot of the Queen Mother." Xiao Yuexi picked up the key points of what she had just heard from Fengshuangxue and repeated it to Mu Yunqing, and as soon as the words fell, she realized that Mu Yunqing's expression was wrong, and said in a deep voice: "You also found out that something was wrong, right?" ”
Sure enough, Mu Yun looked at her lightly and said in disbelief: "Even if we are not surprised that she understands pharmacology, how could she tamper with the prescription so appropriately and do it seamlessly?" ”
Xiao Yuexi said: "Didn't His Royal Highness King Xian find out the clues about the poisoning? ”
The two glanced at each other, and saw unprecedented solemnity in each other's eyes, and they seemed to have a unified answer - since King Xian was seriously ill, everything was planned by the Queen Mother.
Xiao Yuexi said: "There is one thing I don't understand. If she was planning all this to rob me, then I was almost unconscious in the next five days, and she clearly had countless opportunities to kill me, why did she ...... "Why did she send her back unscathed, and change her prescription in one more move?"
A face suddenly flashed through his mind - Ling Suihan!
She muttered as if talking to herself: "Let's assume first, the Queen Mother made a plan to kill me, but this plan can only be realized when I leave the palace." It's not easy to trick me out, so the Queen Mother thought of starting from His Royal Highness King Xian......"
Mu Yunqing understood what she meant, and said: "At this time, Ling Suihan also seems to want you out of the palace, and the two hit it off, and it seems that there is some cooperation." ”
Xiao Yuexi raised her eyes to look at him and said, "But Ling Suihan didn't do anything, he just locked me up for five days." When the Queen Mother found out that I was still alive, she naturally refused to give up, so she thought of tampering with the prescription, but Li Ran found out in time, and her plan was completely declared a failure. ”
So last night, the Queen Mother was angry with Lu Jinxiu, and Lu Jinxiu went back to the Jiaofang Hall and sprinkled it on her bedroom.
The only thing that makes people wonder is what Ling Suihan's purpose is.
Xiao Yuexi said: "So far, I don't believe that Ling Suihan has nothing to do with the big man who wanted to assassinate me at the beginning and then tried to win me over. Since he has a connection with that person, he must also know my life experience, maybe it is for the secret of that life experience that he will lead me out of the palace, Yun Qing, we have to check in this direction. ”
Mu Yun nodded solemnly and said, "I'll let Chengfeng pay attention, but you...... The Queen Mother will not give up, and there is still a backhand if you can't keep it, although I will help you block it, but you yourself must be vigilant. I ......"
Xiao Yuexi suddenly smiled and interrupted, "When did you become so verbose?" It's not like you anymore. ”
“…… Yuexi"
"Alright!" Xiao Yuexi pretended to be relaxed and said: "You just came back after the morning court, there must be a lot of things to deal with, I listened to it for a long time in the morning, and I was tired and went to rest." ”
Mu Yun looked at her with a complicated expression for a while, but nodded and let go of her hand.
"Tomorrow, the envoys of the Tortoiseshell Kingdom will enter Beijing." Mu Yun said lightly.
Xiao Yuexi's face became complicated, and she was silent for a long time before she said, "If you are embarrassed, you don't have to ......."
Mu Yunqing interrupted very resolutely: "I won't be embarrassed, you are the most important." ”
The envoys will rest for a period of time when they enter Beijing, just waiting for the day of the Qianqiu Festival, and bring generous gifts to the palace to see them. In less than half a month, I don't know how Mu Yunqing will deal with those people in private.
After this conversation, everything seemed to have returned to calm, Xiao Yuexi still took medicine and ate at a fixed point every day, and in the afternoon, when the weather was good, he would take a walk in the yard, and play with His Royal Highness.
His Royal Highness Sixth has been very happy recently, because after schoolwork, he can come to play with Mrs. Xiao, whom he has admired for a long time, but after a few days of playing, he realized that something was wrong......
"Sixth Highness, why did you stop? It's not time yet! Xiao Yuexi sat on the railing of the cloister, looking at Mu Lingche with a smile.
Mu Lingche was pushing a set of punches, and after pushing halfway, he stopped panting, bent over and supporting his knees with his hands, and was looking at Xiao Yuexi with a flushed face - his blushing was definitely not because of shame, it was purely tired.
I only heard him breathless and said, "Mrs. Xiao, I've been practicing three and a half times, I'm so tired, can I take a break and continue?" ”
"Yes!" Xiao Yuexi's smile grew, and she said slowly: "It's just that in the future, Your Highness the Sixth will not come to me to teach you martial arts." ”
A trace of panic flashed on Mu Lingche's round little face, and he said urgently: "Don't, don't!" I'll just keep practicing! As he spoke, he really straightened his waist and continued to push the punch he had just stopped.
Xiao Yuexi said nonchalantly: "Since His Royal Highness the Sixth wants to learn, then I will definitely teach you with all my heart." My standards are all the standards given to me by my master when I was a child, and as for Ping Nanhou, he will not show mercy to me. Since childhood, I didn't dare to slack off, and now I don't dare to call myself a master, like the sixth highness, if you are so squeamish, won't it be even worse in the future? ”
Mu Lingche held his mouth and didn't say a word, but he obviously listened to it, and his posture of pushing his fists became more and more presentable and powerful.
Xiao Yuexi looked at all this, although she couldn't bear it, but after all, she could only make herself more stern - Mu Yunqing had too heavy expectations for this child.
It's also thanks to Mu Lingche that she can follow her for four or five days, and she still tirelessly comes to find guilt, her perseverance is really good, and her strength to not admit defeat is also very attractive.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuexi's gaze softened a lot when she looked at him.
Mu Lan came over with a soup woman who had just been filled with boiling water, replaced the one in Xiao Yuexi's hand, and then complained: "Madam, you have been sitting outside for too long today. ”
Xiao Yuexi raised her face that was blown red by the wind, and said with a smile: "Every day with the activities of the Sixth Highness, I feel a lot more relaxed, so let me sit for a while." ”
Mu Lan was speechless, and gathered the cloak for her, making sure that the heavy cloak could indeed withstand the cold weather now, before stepping aside.
Mu Yun came back from the court, and saw a Sixth Highness pushing a set of boxing techniques in the courtyard in a decent manner, and the boxing techniques were much more proficient as in the previous days, and the person who taught him carefully seemed to have a much better complexion.
"Ahh Brother Huang! Mu Lingche panted and stopped and saluted his imperial brother, and immediately continued to practice, for fear that Mrs. Xiao would not be allowed to look for her again if it was too late.
Mu Yunqing gently held Xiao Yuexi's hand, the hands were soft and slender, I don't know if it was because of holding Tang Pozi, the palms and backs of the hands were hot. Mu Yun reluctantly decided to allow her to sit outside for a while, turned his head to look at the Sixth Highness who was extremely serious, and said with a smile: "I have never seen him learn anything so attentively." ”
Xiao Yuexi also smiled: "He seems to be very afraid that I won't allow him to come to me, and it is usually very effective to scare him with this sentence." ”
As she spoke, she looked at Mu Lingche and raised her voice: "Your Highness Six, the time has come, come and rest." ”
Mu Lingche made a serious gesture, exhaled a long breath, and then rushed over at a trot, knelt on Mu Yunqing's knees and asked expectantly, "Brother Huang, how did I practice just now?" ”
Mu Yun couldn't cry or laugh for a while, but he still said with a straight face: "Although there is progress, you can't be complacent, you still need to persevere." ”
Mu Lingche nodded vigorously, and was asked some homework by his own imperial brother. It's strange to say that when he didn't use him to practice martial arts, he didn't pay much attention to his homework, but now that he has taken up a lot of time, he refuses to waste his homework. After a few conversations, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Mu Yunqing's eyes.
"Go back and study well, don't be lazy." Mu Yun said lightly and expressionlessly.
Mu Lingche nodded, looked at the sun, and knew that it was time for him to go back to the dormitory, so he straightened his waist and saluted respectfully: "Brother Huang, the younger brother will retire first." Mrs. Xiao, I'll bother you again tomorrow. ”
Looking at Mu Lingche's back that was obviously still very immature, but pretending to be steady, Xiao Yuexi pondered for a long time, and finally said, "I still can't bear it......"
Mu Yun glanced at her, pulled her up and entered the dormitory, removed her cloak and cloak for her, and pulled her to sit by the charcoal fire, then asked, "What can't you bear?" ”
Xiao Yuexi said: "It's so small, but it has to make him carry so much, and he doesn't even have the right to choose......"
Mu Yun was light but extremely calm: "I'm so big that I can't choose." What's more, Ling Che is more suitable to be this emperor than me, you can also see that he has a tough heart, distinguishes between right and wrong, even his biological mother can't influence his thoughts, he is stronger than me, as long as I help him clear the obstacles that shouldn't be there, when the time comes, he will naturally be able to bear this country. ”
Xiao Yuexi sighed.
Mu Yun raised his hand lightly and stroked her hair, and said, "I see that you look good today, how is your body?" ”
"It's fine." Xiao Yuexi didn't lie, her mood was not so anxious these days, and there was Mu Lingche making pistachios next to her, and her heart was indeed not as uncomfortable as a few days ago. "What about you?" she asked. Is there any news from the Tortoiseshell Country? ”
Mu Yun said lightly: "The envoy still uses the prince's unsuitability as an excuse, a group of people are crowded in the post house and barely leave the house, and I haven't been able to see the prince of the tortoiseshell country so far." After a pause, Mu Yun said as if he remembered something: "These days, the imperial brother and Mrs. Decree have settled down, and Imperial Doctor Li has come back with a message, saying that he will enter the palace later to diagnose your pulse." ”
Xiao Yuexi nodded, but still didn't say a word.
