Chapter 39 Four or Two Thousand Pounds
Without waiting for Mu Lan to ask, Mu Kom felt a gaze as sharp as a knife coming from Xiao Yuexi's side, and hurriedly straightened his expression and didn't say anything more.
His Majesty the Trustworthy Emperor came back on time and was going to have lunch with Xiao Yuexi, but when he learned that she was really lying down obediently and not running around, his heart became uneasy. Sure enough, as soon as he got close to her, he noticed the coldness that emanated from her, and His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but reflect on himself in his heart-
I haven't hidden anything from her recently, everything that should be explained has been made clear, he has been revolving around the epidemic all morning, and he shouldn't have the spare time to provoke her...... So what the hell happened to her?
The more he thought about it, the more obvious the apprehension in his heart became, Mu Yun slowly paced to Xiao Yuexi, glanced at Xiao Yuexi's face, and finally gave up thinking, and whispered sincerely and consciously: "Say okay first, no matter what I do wrong, you must not be angry, I will feel distressed if I am angry!" ”
Xiao Yuexi: ......What should I do if the anger in my stomach suddenly disappears as soon as the anger in my stomach disappears? The coldness on Xiao Yuexi's face almost couldn't be maintained, and he unconsciously expressed his dissatisfaction through a slightly sarcastic voice: "Heh! I'm just a puppet at your mercy, so what right do I have to be angry? ”
Mu Yun sighed lightly, sat down next to Xiao Yuexi, and said faintly with some self-reproach: "Look at you, you're still angry." Madame, tell me how to make you angry. Or you're going to beat me up? ”
As he spoke, he really grabbed Xiao Yuexi's wrist and waved it towards him, with a soft curvature at the corner of his lips, and he leaned one cheek towards her hand a little cheeky.
"......" Xiao Yuexi has never seen someone so active in begging and begging when she is so old!
Xiao Yuexi broke free of the hand that was restrained by him, and finally was not forced to do such a rebellious thing as attacking the king, but in his heart, he really couldn't set off much spark, so he had to accept his fate. He said angrily: "Okay!" Stay away from me, I have something to ask you! ”
Mu Yun also had to judge the situation, and when he saw it, he immediately moved back "well-behaved and sensible", his eyes never left Xiao Yuexi, and he smiled harmlessly on his face, vowing to maintain the image of the brother next door to the end......
Others Xiao Yuexi didn't know, anyway, she had no resistance to this set, her face softened a lot, and she said with a smile: "You tell me the truth, who did that group of assassins come at yesterday?" ”
Seeing that Mu Yunqing opened his mouth to answer without thinking, Xiao Yuexi took the first step to grab the conversation: "Yunqing, I persuade you to think about it before you say it, it's best if I ask anything, you can say anything." I don't want to dig up the things you are hiding from me little by little, until one day I completely lose trust in you. ”
The ordinary tone and calm and soft gaze were enough deterrence for Mu Yunqing.
His Majesty the Emperor confessed without any bottom line: "I was about to tell you about this. It's strange that the assassins who were captured last night later confessed that their target was you. I asked the chief envoy, but I couldn't answer. ”
Xiao Yuexi stared at his peach blossom eyes carefully for a long time, as if she didn't notice anything abnormal, and then turned her attention to what he said: "What does it mean that you can't answer?" ”
"They said that the tasks were handed over by means of a message, and no one knew who the messenger was."
Xiao Yuexi frowned, even more confused, and asked after a while, "Then there must be someone to organize them, right?" Otherwise, how would they know to obey the command of the letter? ”
This time, a strong sense of solemnity gradually appeared on Mu Yunqing's face: "This is their most clever place, their upper level, not the same person, was stopped yesterday and did not succeed in committing suicide, there are only five in total, each of them recruited a different superior, and everyone has never met their own comrades, that is, it is very likely that the superiors of the twenty or so assassins last night are not the same!" ”
When Mu Yunqing received the results of this interrogation, he was also shocked, the first few times because he had no experience, he always gave those people a chance to commit suicide, and it was easy to stay alive, but he got such a headache.
If you think about it carefully, it's a series of bad associations - just take five people and just do it, then the number of people available in the other party's hands is too large. When the dead are exhausted, there will be a superior of the dead! At this cultivation rate, he was too optimistic before.
And recently, they have obviously accelerated their pace, not to mention frequent poisoning, just the suspicious people who have infiltrated the Royal Forest Army, Qiong Lou has caught a lot, and there are still many people in the Xiunu Palace who are waiting to approach Xiao Yuexi through the upper position......
As soon as he thought of this, Mu Yun couldn't wait to take Xiao Yuexi in his arms, wherever he went, no one would want to touch him!
Mu Yun said lightly: "Yuexi, I will check this matter again, you ......"
Xiao Yuexi waved his hand and interrupted: "I'm not worried about this, it's a big deal that I deliberately released water when I went to Binzhou, so that they could expose their flaws." I'm going to ask the second question now, and I'll answer it after I think it through. ”
Mu Yun stroked the folds on his sleeves, and looked at her for a long time, waiting for her next.
"The night I was attacked and rescued by you a year ago." Xiao Yuexi only said this sentence and paused, because she obviously noticed that Mu Yunqing's gaze shook slightly, and it returned to normal in an instant. What is he pretending, Xiao Yuexi didn't bother to think about it, and asked directly: "Those people in black are athletic, and the group of soft-footed shrimp raised by King Kang is not as good as a finger of others, I have always suspected that they are not King Kang's people, and then King Kang did not admit it, what do you think about this?" ”
"Hmm......" Mu Yun thought for a moment as if he was serious before he spoke: "Didn't we analyze this matter before?" I think he was just confusing me before he died, in order to confuse me. Now it seems that his trick did not confuse me, but made you suspicious. ”
Hypochondriasis? If I believe you, you're a ghost! Xiao Yuexi was about to question, but saw Mu Yunqing suddenly leaning forward, the elegant and peerless face magnified in front of him, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said in a deep and slow tone: "Madam, I am very sad that you think of other men in front of me like this......"
Xiao Yuexi's scalp was numb, and she subconsciously scurried back, and her back slammed on the bedpost, making a muffled sound of "bang", accompanied by Xiao Yuexi's muffled snort, all of which showed that this hit was not light.
Mu Yunqing hurriedly pulled her, and while helping her rub her sore back, she cried and laughed: "What about you!" ”
Xiao Yuexi gritted her teeth and glared at the culprit, but she didn't forget the reason why he suddenly came up, raised her hand to push him away, gritted her teeth and said, "Don't interrupt!" I'll let you- uh......" She asked him to say what he thought, and he did, what else do you want?
Xiao Yuexi stared at Mu Yun's smiling face, speechless.
Mu Yun asked lightly and methodically: "Madam, is there a third or fourth?" ”
A stomach full of questions, after this short exchange, I can't ask them. Mu Yun said a few words lightly, and quietly resolved the resentment in Xiao Yuexi's heart that he didn't understand.
Mu Yunqing continued: "If not, let's have lunch, madam, I'm hungry......"
Xiao Yuexi: "......" Why does his eyes look like he doesn't want to eat, but like he wants to eat people? Did she feel wrong about falling into the wolf's den so suddenly?
Who knew that the next moment, Mu Yunqing suddenly changed back to a calm expression, smiled at Xiao Yuexi very implicitly, and said, "I'm sorry, I suddenly showed too much thought, and I couldn't help it, it scared you?" ”
Xiao Yuexi: "......"
During the lunch room, His Majesty the Emperor was full of peach blossoms like a spring breeze, and he was in a good mood at first glance; On the other hand, what about Mrs. Xiao? It's a bit hard to put into words...... was so busy that he wanted to speak and stopped, and his face was even more like he had just eaten two catties of bitter gourd.
After finishing lunch, Xiao Yuexi was ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to lie down to recuperate, bored, Xiao Yuexi leaned on the bedside and flipped through half a book, and when he was investing, Mu Lan fried the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Li and brought it over.
Xiao Yuexi raised her eyes to look at His Majesty the Emperor who was not far away with a bookcase review and fold, and it seemed that she immediately noticed her gaze and looked back, and saw that she was holding a medicine bowl and did not drink, and said softly: "The residual poison in your body has not been cleared, and you are not allowed to deny or drink medicine!" ”
She didn't want to deny it, she just wanted to ask him about the Imperial Physician Li, but his sentence was already an answer - Imperial Physician Li was indeed his person.
Xiao Yuexi doesn't like sweets, and she doesn't like bitter taste much, she almost vomited out this bowl of medicine! This medicine was so bitter that she was numb from the root of her tongue all the way to her stomach.
Seeing her extremely aggrieved expression, His Majesty the Emperor laughed out loud without reserve, and Xiao Yuexi's resentful gaze didn't care about it, until he had laughed enough, he quipped: "I haven't seen your expression for many years!" ”
When Xiao Yuexi heard this, she was slightly stunned, and it took a while to realize when he had last seen him.
It was the year she lived in the palace when she was a child, and after a heavy snowfall, she had to go out and play crazy. At that time, his physique was not as strong as he is now, and the end of being a demon was a severe wind chill.
When Mu Yun came to visit her, she was pinching her nose and preparing to drink medicine. How can a child not be afraid of taking medicine, although Xiao Yuexi is easier to coax than ordinary children, but she also hates the smell of medicine, and her tearful appearance is so bitter that she laughs at Mu Yunqing, who is silent and timid......
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuexi couldn't help but feel a little funny, and couldn't help but say, "You still remember the things of your teens so clearly!" ”
Mu Yun chuckled and said casually, "I'm only impressed by things about you." From childhood to now, I remember everything about you, everything you say. ”
