Chapter 140 Two Bodhi Trees
Su Qi, who was looking at the flower garden, couldn't help but sneer, and said coquettishly: "He is not a tree, and I am not a flower or plant. I always felt that this seemingly honest Brother Zhang also had a cranky aunt's heart, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'm just friends with the prince, you don't have to think about it." ”
Zhang Pu smiled mockingly: It's just a friend...... My friend slept in your bed all night, but you didn't have a problem at all?
Su Qi was inexplicably laughed at by him, and quickly changed the topic, pointed to the two small trees that had just been planted on the south wall of the courtyard and asked, "What kind of tree is this?" I don't think I've seen it before. ”
"Bodhi." Zhang Pu looked at the two small trees, and his gaze softened, "This tree is mostly born in the south, and it is rare in the north. ”
"It turns out that this is the legendary sacred tree Bodhi!" Su Qi's gaze at the two small saplings was a little more reverent, "Before, I heard a dead ghost chanting something 'The body is a Bodhi tree, the heart is like a mirror platform, always wipe diligently, don't make dust', but it is the first time I have seen the real Bodhi tree." ”
"The body is a Bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror platform......" Zhang Pu muttered these two sentences, and suddenly smiled, "The literati and scholars in the world are the most self-righteous. Even if it is a Bodhi tree, in this Vientiane world, it draws rolling red dust and water, and inhales the fireworks of the world, how can it be like a mirror and not cause dust? ”
Su Qi glanced at him unconsciously: When did this big brother become so profound?
After Zhang Pu finished sighing, he suddenly asked thoughtfully: "Miss Su, if one day you find out that your name, background, relatives, friends, and past are all fake, you may accept all this?" ”
"Huh?" Su Qi couldn't turn a corner, thought about it and smiled: "Brother Zhang is joking?" How can it all be fake? As he spoke, he reached out and pinched Zhang Pu's arm: "Does it hurt?" ”
"It hurts."
"If you know it hurts, you're not dreaming." Su Qi proudly announced, "If it's not a dream, it won't be fake!" ”
Zhang Pu smiled, looked at the two Bodhi saplings swaying in the night, and stopped making a sound.
What kind of nerves does this guy have today, as if the old monk is possessed...... Su Qi secretly sighed and shook his head, took a bite of the cold and sweet watermelon, and suddenly felt two cold glances, and the knife skipped over his head.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw Mu Yunsong standing at the door of the courtyard at some point, looking gloomily at Su Qi and Zhang Pu who were sitting side by side.
"Wang ...... Rajah? Su Qi reflexively moved away from Zhang Pu, "When did you come?" ”
Mu Yunsong's tone was cold: "It's not too soon, it's not too late, it's when you discuss the vanity of life." ”
Dare to pinch Brother Zhang was seen by him, so he has this disgusting expression, why don't I pinch you too? Su Qi rolled his eyes in his heart, but a flattering smile appeared on his face, "Is the prince tired?" Hot or not? Eat a piece of chilled watermelon? ”
After that, I saw that the prince, who was still cold a second ago, did not hesitate to pull the hem of his clothes and sat down close to her.
It's so close, it's a pancake...... Su Qi frowned, moved his ass to get away from him, but was caught off guard by his waist with one hand, grabbed her wrist with the other, and lowered his head to bite the half-eaten watermelon in her hand.
Su Qi was speechless and asked Cangtian: Since this prince discovered his rogue potential, he has repeatedly refreshed his height and broken through himself, as for such a thing as cheek, people don't seem to want it for a long time!
Turning his eyes awkwardly, he saw Zhang Pu on the side, and he disappeared without knowing when.
Mu Yunsong was very satisfied with his "results", picked up another piece of melon and gnawed it slowly, looked at a piece of flowers and trees in front of him and asked, "When will there be so many flowers and plants in the courtyard, and there is still Bodhi?" ”
"Brother Zhang saw that my yard was empty, so he cleaned up a flower garden for me."
"He's warm." Mu Yunsong said sullenly, "Is he planning to be a florist for you here?" ”
Su Qi glanced at him mockingly: Lord Wang, are you embarrassed to say that others are lying here? "How can it be, there is still an elderly mother to support at home, and when the injury is better, I will naturally go back."
Hearing her talk about it so indifferently, Mu Yunsong was inexplicably relieved. He naturally has a hundred ways to make this Zhang Pu disappear, but what he actually cares about is Su Qi's attitude towards Zhang Pu.
He was worried about Zhang Pu's identity and purpose, but according to the secret guard's report in the past few days, this Zhang Pu did not have any out-of-the-ordinary actions except for his hard work, as if he was an honest countryman.
Perhaps, it is indeed he who is rumored and thinks too much.
"It's okay, when he is leaving, this king will give him some entanglement, and then send someone to inform the local officials and take more care of his mother and son."
Su Qi sighed meaningfully: "The prince really loves the people like a son!" "Do you know that you are ashamed of others?
After that, he put his hand on his cheek and turned his head to look at him, wanting to see what kind of material this prince's face was made of, so thick and free.
But I saw that his eyes were full of bloodshots, and the lying silkworms under his eyes were also heavy, as if he was haggard, "The prince has been working hard these two days? ”
"Something happened to the camp in northern Yanbei." Originally, I thought that this matter was too bloody and didn't want to tell her, but in the past two days, I have become more and more aware of the murderer's strange method of killing, so I simply told Su Qi about the deaths of Tu Leopard, Wu Kui, and Li Shun, "There are irregular strangulation marks on all three of them, and the murderer is free to come and go in the barracks but no one notices, I suspect that the murderer and the black-clothed man of the Fan family are basically the same." ”
"Possibly!" Su Qi nodded in agreement, no wonder the man in black didn't harass the Fan family recently, it turned out that he had killed someone, "Then what is the prince going to do?" ”
"I have ordered the whole army to be on strict alert, and the soldiers are not allowed to go out alone at night, and I have sent the royal palace guards to keep an eye on the camp. It's just ......" he shook his head helplessly, "If you don't catch the murderer for a day, rumors will spread in the barracks, everyone will be in danger, and the military will be unstable, if you are used by someone with a heart......"
He didn't say any more, but Su Qi heard some overtones: The Yanbei Iron Cavalry under the command of the King of Beijing is a great wall of the Great Yan Dynasty to resist the northern tribes.
She looked at a certain prince who was serious and worried about the country and the people, and sighed from the bottom of her heart: "The prince is really hard!" Under the rule of a prince like you, it is really a blessing for the people of the northern land of Dayan. ”
Mu Yunsong was very flattered by her words, but he looked at her angrily: I know that I work hard, you girl still makes me feel uneasy every day!
He simply tilted his head and leaned on Su Qi's shoulder, "I have a headache, you rub it for me." ”
Hey, you still use it again and again, really treat the girl and me as a maid? Su Qi secretly slandered himself, but he couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to raise his hand and gently knead his temples, and said angrily: "The prince thinks he is beaten with iron? No matter how busy you are, you have to eat and sleep on time, otherwise where will you have the strength to fight wits and courage with the murderer? ”
"I've been sleepless lately." Mu Yunsong closed his eyes and said lazily, "It's also here for you, sleep peacefully." ”
This is true, since there is no her in the palace, he has felt more and more that the place is just a cold mansion. It's this small courtyard of Huimuzhai that she runs a little bit of home.
It's a pity that he is not the rightful male owner of this family.
Mu Yunsong was thinking about finding a "reasonable" reason to continue to stay here for the night, but he heard Su Qi say in his ear: "If the prince thinks he can sleep comfortably in my bed......"
Mu Yunsong swallowed his saliva nervously, and his voice was hoarse: "How?" ”
Su Qi said boldly: "You take the bed away!" I've got it for you! ”
Mu Yunsong: "......"
In fact, the important thing is not the bed, but the silly girl!
Just like now, sitting side by side on the corridor of the small courtyard, slowly rubbed by her pair of slender hands on the corners of her forehead, and the faint gardenia fragrance on her body was all her breath, which made Mu Yunsong feel a sense of satisfaction.
Last night, he searched for the camp and checked the post and appeased the soldiers, and he stayed awake all night, and today he was busy all day, and his mind was relaxed for a while......
Su Qi felt that his shoulders were getting heavier and heavier, only to find that the prince had really fallen asleep.
"Hey, don't sleep here! The night breeze will catch a cold again! She pushed the prince's shoulder helplessly, and pinched his straight nose, but there was no response.
It's exhausting!
Su Qi felt a little distressed, and wanted to call Zhang Pu to take a hand and put him in the house, but when he turned his head, he saw that the light was dark in his house, and he didn't know where he went.
She was worried when she suddenly saw a figure rushing in like a black whirlwind.
"Vice President Xu is coming just in time!"
"What a good! Lord, it's not good......" Xu Kaigang shouted half a sentence, and was surprised to see that the prince of his family was sleeping deeply in the princess's arms, looking immersed in it and unable to extricate himself, he swallowed the second half of the sentence again.
The prince of his family is really getting more and more depraved!
Su Qi was blushing when he saw it, so he simply reached out and pinched Mu Yunsong's waist, and finally woke up the sleeping beautiful man, opened his eyes and saw Su Qi and Xu Kai, his eyes sank, and he was quite unkind: "What's the matter?" ”
Xu Kai stretched out two fingers with a solemn face: "Corpses, two!" ”
Mu Yunsong got up with a "hoof": "Go back to the camp!" ”
Su Qi tugged at his sleeve: "I'll go with you to take a look!" ”
On the side, Xu Kai kindly reminded: "Princess, the dead scene is nothing to look at, it's bloody and scary!" ”
Su Qibai glanced at him: Girl, how many ghosts and evil I have seen, it is not just bloody, "Take me to see, maybe you can find some clues." ”
Mu Yunsong was about to say "okay", when he saw another person running in in a hurry.
"Master Su!" It turned out to be the housekeeper of the Fan Mansion, "Oh no! ”
Su Qi and Mu Yunsong glanced at each other helplessly: It's not appropriate to forget to look at the Yellow Calendar today?
"The housekeeper is in a hurry, what's wrong?"
Steward Fan didn't care about the beads of sweat on his head: "That black-clothed demon!" It's coming to Fanfu again! ”
"Really?" Su Qi was taken aback, "Who did he touch again?" ”
"If it's just a touch," Steward Fan looked distressed, which made Su Qi's heart sink: Could it be ......
"He sneaked into Fan's Mansion this time and robbed people with great fanfare!"
Su Qi felt that the behavior of the man in black was becoming more and more incredible, "Who was robbed?" ”
"It's Mama Li!"
