Chapter Twenty-Eight: Pushing the Boat with the Current
Shen Fangtian originally even thought of how difficult Xiao Yuexi's words could be, and was full of excitement to take this opportunity to satirize her military general's background, but now seeing that the abacus was empty, she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss in her heart, and reluctantly secretly glanced at her cousin a few times, and was very surprised to see her, so her heart was balanced.
Xiao Yuexi looked like she didn't realize it, buried her head and worked hard to write a book - it can't be regarded as a hard work, she didn't say to copy it before, she hadn't even seen these things, stumbling and copying, almost wanting to abandon the pen and run away, dizzy, she couldn't help but muttered secretly in her heart: So insincere, is the Buddha really willing to accept it?
Renyi is anxious, it is easy to be thirsty, Xiao Yuexi unconsciously poured three cups of tea, and when she was about to drink the fourth cup, she suddenly raised her eyebrows.
Shen Fangtian was so shocked by her subtle movements that a thin layer of sweat broke out on her back, and she quietly questioned in her heart: Does she really have such a great ability to find abnormalities?
Xiao Yuexi was looking at the teacup in her hand with her eyes down, and there was no emotion on her face. Gently blowing away the curling water vapor floating in front of him, he brought the teacup to his lips, frowned again, as if he thought the water was too hot, put the teacup back again, picked up the pen and continued to copy the scriptures.
Although Shen Fangtian didn't stop writing, Yu Guang kept staring at Xiao Yuexi, and was disturbed by her series of unhurried movements, seeing that she wanted to drink it but put it down, the teacup seemed to hit Shen Fangtian's heart.
"Oops!" An inattentive, ink-soaked pen left a large puddle of ink stains on a piece of paper that had just been copied with Buddhist scriptures.
Xiao Yuexi glanced up at her and smiled: "Yo! It's a pity that this scripture has to be rewritten. Shen Concubine, is this a deficiency? Would you like to take a break? β
Shen Fang said dryly: "Mrs. Xiao smiled. When he turned his head, he saw the queen throwing a reproachful glance at him, and his back subconsciously straightened up, and he didn't dare to desert anymore.
There is indeed a problem with the tea, when she brought new tea from Poria and distributed it to them, Xiao Yuexi noticed it, and picked up the teacup, just to confirm - her cup of tea, sure enough, there was no problem!
The problem is the cup that is very close to her, Shen Fang. In the fresh tea aroma, there is a hint of sweetness and greasyness, this Hehuansan is still a very high-grade variety, although the onset is slow after taking it, but the effect is very violent. There is basically no taste, that is, Xiao Yuexi's sense of smell is different from that of ordinary people, so he can smell it.
However, within a few breaths, Xiao Yuexi guessed a rough idea, and couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. I knew before that the queen would not ask her to come and copy the scriptures all night for no reason, she must have dug a pit waiting for her to jump, and the tea was served by Poria cocos, so it was obvious that the cup of "Hehuan tea" should have been a "big gift" for her, right? The effect of the medicine is slow, enough for her to copy the scriptures for a while after drinking, and then the queen casually finds an excuse and asks her to go back to rest, as for Xiao Yuexi, who is waiting for the effect of the medicine in the meditation room where there is no emperor...... It's disgusting to think about!
It's just that why that cup of tea ended up in Shen Fangtian's hands is worth pondering. Xiao Yuexi thought about it, and Mu Yunqing's confident and slightly cold smile suddenly appeared in her head, and her heart trembledβwouldn't it?!
Seeing Shen Fang pouring out and sipping hot tea to hide her heart, Xiao Yuexi's heart was entangled for a while. Of course, she is not a good old person who spreads kindness everywhere, and the other party calculates that she can't succeed but reaps the consequences, which can only be regarded as retribution. What Xiao Yuexi is struggling with at the moment is how to let Shen Fang pour himself to swallow this evil fruit for a while!
Shen Fangtian died by herself, Xiao Yuexi would not stop her, once this thing was done, it would undoubtedly abolish one of the queen mother's chess pieces, even if it was to be investigated, it would not affect Xiao Yuexi anyway. The tea was served by the queen's personal maid Poria, Xiao Yuexi was just a coolie who was dragged over to copy the scriptures in the middle of the night, and she didn't even bring a maid, how could she do such a thing?
Although Lu Taibao's position is unshakable, it is difficult to say whether the Lu and Shen families will have a rift because of this......
Xiao Yuexi was full of thoughts, and after a while, she drank all the cup of tea in front of her, and the two cousins who had their own ghosts were obviously relieved, and Xiao Yuexi didn't see it at all.
The night in the temple was exceptionally clean, Xiao Yuexi calmed down and copied for another half an hour, and finally waited for the queen to be very "distressed" and said: "It's so late, it's hard for Sister Xiao to be unwell and have been with the palace for so long, there are a few articles left to write about the palace and Tian'er, Sister Xiao go back and rest, right?" β
Xiao Yuexi helped her forehead and looked "tired", but shook her head and said, "Then how can you do it?" Do things from the beginning to the end......"
In Shen Fangtian's opinion, this appearance was clearly that the effect of the medicine was about to attack, and he was so happy in his heart that he couldn't care about anything, and persuaded again and again: "Ouch, Mrs. Xiao, don't hold on, the concubine can't bear to look at you." β
After a few rounds of politeness, Xiao Yuexi finally got up to say goodbye as they wished.
Shen Fang volunteered to get up and said, "Mrs. Xiao didn't even bring a maid when she came over, the concubine will send you away!" β
Yo! Do you want to come over and see for yourself how she "got into the tiger"? She didn't dare to be alone with this woman who was about to take effect, it would be boring to cause unnecessary trouble!
"How inappropriate is that? If the queen doesn't mind, just lend me Poria! β
Shen Fangtian was about to say something more, but suddenly stumbled under his feet and almost fell.
Xiao Yuexi hurriedly helped her, and she could feel her body temperature gradually becoming hot through her clothes, and she didn't shake her off when she endured her nausea, and said "in a panic": "Ah! You're worried about me! Don't you even know that you have a fever? β
Shen Fang's legs were weak for a while, but he still kept his consciousness and said: "It's okay, maybe, maybe it's too hot......"
Lu Jinxiu didn't expect that this stall waiting to watch the play, Shen Fangtian would be so uncompromising, copying the scriptures in the middle of the night, she was also impetuous, thinking that the big drama of catching rape would have to wait for an hour or two, and it would not hurt to let Shen Fangtian go back to rest first, so she sent both of them back to rest, and she also lay on the couch and closed her eyes to recuperate, feeling physically and mentally happy for someone's upcoming ruin.
When someone returned to her meditation room, she felt that something was wrong, there was a faint smell of blood in the air, but before she could pull out the soft whip hidden at her waist, Muko poked her head out of the inner room and said quietly, "Madame is back?" Come here. β
Xiao Yuexi walked into the inner room with a stomach full of doubts, and saw His Majesty the Emperor, who was supposed to sleep peacefully in the meditation room in the front yard, sitting leisurely on a chair, with a blood gourd lying at his feet that he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
Xiao Yuexi: "......"
Mu Yun saw her lightly, curled half of the corners of his lips and beckoned to her, and said in a low voice: "Thanks to me sneaking in in the middle of the night, I can help you clean up this thing in advance." β
Xiao Yuexi: How did the dignified "......" Ninety-Five Honorable say the words "sneak in" so calmly?
Mu Kom consciously explained on the side: "Madam, not long after the emperor came, this monk came in, and his kung fu is still very powerful, and the slave and maid will definitely not be able to catch him." After a pause, she said again with some regret: "Madame comes back a little earlier, and you can still see how the emperor beats this stupid monk!" It's a shame. β
Xiao Yuexi only then discovered that the head with a layer of blood stains was light! ββ¦β¦ The current monks are so ......" Xiao Yuexi didn't say anything, she really felt cold.
"Huh!" Mu Yun sneered: "They have worked so hard, I don't prepare a return gift, I'm a little sorry for them!" β
Xiao Yuexi glanced at the blood gourd on the ground and frowned: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if you return the gift or anything, what should you do with this person?" You can't just leave it here and wait to rot, right? I'm going to sleep! β
Mu Yun chuckled: "Just as I was about to ask Qionglou to clean up, you came back." β
While speaking, a figure sneaked in through the window silently, without saying a word, he picked up the blood gourd and left, the whole set of actions in one go, without dragging the mud and water.
Xiao Yuexi was speechless for a while.
The eyesore was finally gone, and Cardamom opened all the doors and windows for ventilation. Mu Yun looked at Xiao Yuexi lightly and smiled: "Why don't you seem surprised that there will be more than one person in the room?" β
Xiao Yuexi rolled her eyes, walked over to him and sat down and said, "Do you think that the cup of 'Hehuan Tea' that was originally intended for me went into Shen Fangtian's stomach, and I don't know?" Their plans haven't changed. β
Mu Yun raised his eyebrows lightly and said unexpectedly, "How do you know?" β
Xiao Yuexi threw him his unfathomable glance.
ββββββ
At the end of the ugly hour, people were woken up by an inexplicable noise, and the more they listened, the more they felt that something was wrong. This blushing and heart-pounding sound, why is it so similar......
The monks in the temple undoubtedly could not tolerate this kind of blasphemy, and several monks of high moral standing came to find them, and the guards guarding outside the meditation room were like earth, and they were at a loss.
An elderly monk was so angry that his lips turned blue, and he sharply accused: "How can the Buddha Gate be so nonsense! Is there still courtesy, righteousness and shame in the eyes of the emperor? β
The guards felt a chill in their necks when they heard it, and they felt that this monk was really a great hero, so he could say it without a head?
muttered in his heart, and he didn't forget to be embarrassed: "This master, you also know, that's the emperor, we...... We ......"
The movement inside became louder and louder, and the people outside couldn't even speak. The guard blushed, and at the same time muttered secretly in his heart: He has been guarding Shen Concubine's side tonight, why didn't he see when the emperor entered? But soon he reacted, in the end, it was a place of Buddhism, and whoever the emperor wanted to be fortunate to, of course he had to carry some people on his back...... It's just that the emperor didn't favor Mrs. Xiao before? Why did you suddenly change so ...... Such a powerful taste?
Just thinking about it, suddenly a slightly sharp tone shouted from not far away: "The emperor has arrived-"
