Chapter 118: It's hard to tell the truth from the fake
Xiao Yuexi lowered her head silently, thinking of this, she felt a little happy in her heart, and she couldn't help but wonder if he had always been like this, if it was...... Can she think that he belongs to hers? Although this idea is contrary to the norm, she is overjoyed by it, she is so selfish and whimsical......
"Yuexi?" She didn't respond for a long time, and Mu Yun couldn't help but call again.
Xiao Yuexi came back to her senses, only to find that she had stopped for a long time, coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment, raised her legs and continued to move forward, saying as she walked: "It's nothing." β
Mu Yun saw her like this, and thought that she had suffered some grievances and refused to say, frowning and asking, "What else is going on in the Jiaofang Palace?" β
Xiao Yuexi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "No! You're too much to think about. Who can bully me? If I don't harm others, you should burn incense and worship the Buddha. β
"......" Mu Yun sighed lightly and said softly, "It would be nice if you could......"
Xiao Yuexi didn't hear clearly: "What? β
"It's nothing, let's go back! It's going to rain. β
Xiao Yuexi raised her eyes and looked at the sky, it was gloomy, and it seemed that a small autumn rain was about to fall.
She nodded and said, "Then let's go, you came in a hurry after getting off the court, right?" There must still be a bunch of excerpts to be approved. β
"Hmm." Mu Yun took her hand lightly, and the warm palm wrapped around her fingertips, slowly passing the temperature.
Even if the palace walls are majestic and the palace garden is deep, this moment will not make people feel lonely and desolate.
Xiao Yuexi let him hold his hand, the smile on his lips slowly spread, and he forgot all his troubles and entanglements for a while, and just wanted to go on like this.
When he was about to arrive at the Qingliang Palace, Xiao Yuexi suddenly remembered something and said, "I forgot to ask, how is His Royal Highness King Xian?" β
Speaking of King Xian, a touch of gloom flashed on Mu Yun's face, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Huang's condition has been dragging on, although it has not deteriorated, but it has always dragged on and there is no progress. β
Mu Yanyu's situation is not good, Xiao Yuexi has known it from Li Ran's mouth, but no one has told Mu Yunqing, whether it is Li Ran or Xiao Yuexi, they dare not say to Mu Yunqing that the life of his most respected imperial brother is at stake, just like Xiao Yuexi has never dared to tell him the truth about his illness.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuexi's expression was also a little melancholy, Mu Yun saw it, and only thought that she was worried about herself, so she couldn't help but comfort her softly: "Yuexi, you don't have to worry about this, the imperial brother has been weak since he was a child, and I have been used to it over the years, so don't worry about me." β
Xiao Yuexi said in her heart: Habit is habit, and you can't accept it if you really tell you the truth...... Even though he thought so, he had to echo the words: "Well, I know." β
The Qingliang Hall has arrived, Xiao Yuexi was pulled into the door, and immediately there was a hot soup woman stuffed into his hand, which had been prepared by the wind, frost and snow a long time ago, and he didn't know how many times he changed the water halfway, so he couldn't say that he didn't care. When he saw the people returning, he immediately brought in the prepared tea and ginseng chicken soup, and then withdrew quietly.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Yuexi finally couldn't help but ask the question in her heart: "I said the emperor, didn't you let her replace Mukou?" Why is she avoiding me all these days? β
His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyebrows, as if he was even more surprised than Madam Xiao: "Don't you dislike her?" Why are you still uncomfortable when she hides from you for a few days? β
The long-standing question came to such an answer, Xiao Yuexi suddenly felt crying and laughing, and was faintly moved by this thoughtfulness in her heart.
After struggling for a long time, Xiao Yuexi said softly: "Actually, you don't have to bother thinking about this, I'm a person who can make do with it." β
"Why make do?" Mu Yun chuckled. "My ability is limited now, and I can't get rid of it if it's too much of an eyesore, so I can only do these little things to make you happy."
Xiao Yuexi didn't understand who the "more eyesore" meant, and Mu Yunqing didn't explain much, but said: "Let's put in some chicken soup to pad my stomach, Ah Shuang will definitely come in with a bowl of medicine in a while, you haven't taken the medicine today." β
Xiao Yuexi said "oh", and Mu Yun sat down in front of the desk to review the folds sent early in the morning. Xiao Yuexi took two sips slowly while holding the bowl, and suddenly said, "Actually, I don't like Ah Shuang. β
"Huh?" Mu Yun raised his head lightly and glanced at her.
Xiao Yuexi was a little embarrassed at this glance, she coughed dryly, and continued: "It's just strange, how did you find her." β
Mu Yun looked at her calmly and didn't speak for a while.
Although Xiao Yuexi knew that there was no expression or emotion on his face, he also became weak under his gaze. She took a sip of soup to hide her unnaturalness, but she heard Mu Yunqing suddenly ask: "Madam's words, can I understand ...... 'You are jealous, hurry up'?" β
Xiao Yuexi squirted out a mouthful of soup, without any image at all.
Mu Yun chuckled, paced over the bookcase, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of her mouth and clothes.
Xiao Yuexi's face immediately burned into the color of pig liver, and she even forgot about refusal, and let him fiddle with it for a long time before she held back a sentence: "...... Don't talk nonsense! β
Mu Yun took her into his arms lightly, and his tone was full of a brisk smile: "You are always like this, if you have a question, you will only think about it yourself, and never take the initiative to ask." If you can figure it out, it's fine, but when don't you think about it more and more crookedly? β
ββ¦β¦β
He laughed and teased, "What should I do? I don't even want to explain, let you keep being vinegared like this, doesn't it mean that you care about me very much? β
Xiao Yuexi was annoyed and ashamed, and was about to push him away, but suddenly heard him whisper something in his ear, and the whole person seemed to be scared stupid, and stood still. Mu Yunqing let go of her, raised his hand and gently pinched her hot cheeks, and said softly: "Wait for me again." β
"You, what the hell do you want to ......"
"Ma'am, it's time to take your medicine." The wind, frost and snow suddenly appeared, but it was really as His Majesty the Emperor asserted, it was brought in with medicine.
Xiao Yuexi drank the medicine absentmindedly, but she didn't even feel any taste, just quietly looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was buried in the pile again.
After a while, His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but raise his head and said, "Yuexi, you keep looking at me like this, I'm going to be distracted." β
"Oh......" Xiao Yuexi said a little sneeringly: "Then I'll go in and lie down for a while." β
Mu Yunqing must have been under a lot of pressure recently, she can't always influence him like this - in the end, don't you still think about it?
Xiao Yuexi didn't think about it for long, and she was a little sleepy when the medicine came up. I don't know whether Li Ran prescribed her a cure medicine or a sweat medicine, and she fell asleep very deeply every time she took the medicine. But there is also a good thing about itβyou don't always suffer as much in your sleep as you do when you wake up.
It's just that she didn't sleep long this night, and Mrs. Xiao was called up by the emperor for lunch.
In recent days, the meals have completely taken care of Mrs. Xiao's body, and the clear soup is not watery, and there is no heavy soup on a large table, and Xiao Yuexi, who is not picky, eats these things tastelessly, and reminds His Majesty the Emperor who eats bran with her more than once that he does not have to do this, but people ignore it.
"The affairs in Binzhou are over, and all the officials implicated have been exiled. Ling Zheng made the ...... over there" Mu Yun glanced at Xiao Yuexi, and paused before continuing: "Temporarily resign from your official position and go back to the house to wait." β
Xiao Yuexi was stunned, and her first reaction was to ask: "Is there no substantial evidence to prove that he has anything to do with this matter?" β
Mu Yun said lightly: "No, if it really has something to do with him, it can only be said that he has done a clean job in the aftermath." β
Xiao Yuexi frowned, thinking of the pot of wine when she was poisoned and infected, she still can't figure out what the problem is, but she is poisoned, and Ling Suihan is the most suspicious. But this matter was strictly forbidden by her not to say it, even if she confessed to the people in order to inspire people at that time, she also told her not to leak it later, so Mu Yunqing should not know it now.
And if I mention it now, the credibility is not high......
"Huh? That's right! Xiao Yue exclaimed. Letter! The previous letter, I said that the one with the same handwriting as you, I haven't thought about it for so many days! β
Mu Yun looked at her helplessly and smiled, only doting in her eyes, although she spilled the soup in front of her with this shock. He said, "What do you expect you little fool to do?" I've seen it all! β
"Huh? Seen it? Xiao Yuexi was stunned. When? How did I not know? β
Mu Yunqing: "I read it the next day after you finished talking to me, and I was indeed exactly the same, I wrote a copy of it, and I couldn't tell which one I wrote it when I put it together." β
Such a degree of similarity is unheard of by Xiao Yuexi. There are indeed some tricks on the rivers and lakes that can be imitated in human handwriting, eight or nine points of similarity is already extremely rare, compared with the two, you can always see some flaws, like this kind of main owner can not distinguish is simply impossible!
Xiao Yuexi became more and more frightened, she couldn't take care of eating, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you put the letter?" I'll take a look! β
Mu Yun lightly pressed her who was eager to try, and said helplessly: "Eat first, you and I have seen that thing several times, and it is not easy to make new discoveries, what are you anxious about?" β
Xiao Yuexi had to continue to eat with a bowl in her hand, and while eating, she couldn't help but sigh: "It's unheard of, can this person write anyone's words or can only write you?" If anyone can imitate it, it would be terrible, and it would be impossible to imitate the handwriting of the important minister to frame him for usurping the throne, and there is no way to deny it......"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yuexi silently shut up, looked at Mu Yunqing in disbelief, and read a touch of disbelief in his eyes.
"Frame the important minister...... Xiao Yuexi muttered. If so, who do you think he will frame next? β
The overhead supervisor of the State Division, who wanted to take Xiao Yuexi's life several times, and now Mrs. Xiao, who seems to be one-sided in the court, has brought disaster to the country and the people, what else can he do next...... Cracking down on those who disagree with them, of course.
And their biggest obstacle is undoubtedly Pingnanhou, who is far away in the south!
