Mu Jingzhu looked at the red bead in his palm, which was engraved with the last of the seven sufferings of Buddhism - love and parting.

It means that people who love each other are separated.

Suddenly, he bent his five fingers, grasped the red bead tightly, looked at Liangyi, and said word by word.

"Ever since I met her, I have never thought of separating from her, and even if my identity does not allow me to marry her, I will not let her go."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shot lightning and struck directly towards Liangyi's front door.

Liangyi's eyes were cold, and he stretched out his hand to resist, how did he know that Mu Jingzhu's move was a false move, he saw that Liangyi resisted, and his attack was unabated, but the other hand was secretly killing and hit Liangyi's waist.

There is Qu Youying's weakness, and it is also the lifeline of Liangyi.

The blow hit, the two were stunned, and then fell forward.

"Despicable!"

His eyes went dark and he fell into Mu Jingzhu's arms.

Mu Jingzhu hugged her, and in a pair of dark eyes, in addition to the color illuminated by the sun, there was also a layer of frost that was so rich that it could not be dissolved.

When Qu Youying woke up, she was sleeping on the bed, the quilt was properly covered under her neck, but her hand was tightly held by a thick and warm hand.

The person holding her, the moment she opened her eyes, suddenly let go of her hand.

Her eyelashes moved slightly, she looked at the familiar face, and opened her mouth to shout, "Jing Candle, you're here." ”

Her tone was very light, as if she had expected him at this moment.

"Why are you giving me something? Aren't you afraid that I will really take it and never come back? ”

Although Liangyi said so at the time, Mu Jingzhu knew that Qu Youying's heart was not to see if he would come to get it, and there were others.

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you." Qu Youying smiled slightly, sat up from the bed, looked at him without blinking, and said, "To be honest, I was also confused at first, thinking about whether to gamble once, but after really betting, I realized that it was better to give it to you than to be taken away by those people outside." At least I believe in you more than they do. In this world, except for my family, I only dare to trust you. ”

Mu Jingzhu frowned, and was about to speak, but Qu Youying continued first.

"Jing Candle, I know you have your hardships, you have been hiding in the Mu family for so many years, in order to definitely not have a lifetime of worry-free food and clothing, and live a dull life. You have tasks that you have to complete. I won't stop you from doing it, and I won't say anything, I just hope that you have no regrets in your heart, and I hope that after you have done these things, you can still see the smile you once had. ”

Originally, Mu Jingzhu wanted to say something, but after her words, she couldn't open her mouth.

He had wanted to give her any promises, but many things had changed too much, he was not omnipotent, and he could not be absolutely honest with her.

All he could do was do what he wanted, but keep her safe.

"Don't overthink it!" Qu Youying saw that he frowned, leaned forward, smoothed the mountains and rivers with his fingers, and said jokingly, "I'm still waiting for you to come back and marry me!" Don't make yourself a fool because of overthinking. ”

"Even if I am a fool, I don't want to lose you in my life."

Mu Jingzhu held her arm with both hands, and his eyes were sincere.

"Xiaoying, are you willing to wait for me for a while, after I settle this matter, I will come back and marry you, okay."

Qu Youying's lips and teeth moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, there was only one word "good".

All that's left is to look at him with a smile.

She wanted to see him in her eyes, and then silently waited for him to come back and marry her.

A day lingered, Qu Youying fell asleep at dusk, until she woke up the next day, Mu Jingzhu had already left.

He left her two things.

One is the red bead of the seven sufferings of the Buddhist family that should be taken away by him.

One is a jade pendant.

It is a fine mutton fat jade, with the word "Jing" engraved on it, and a blooming peony flower on the reverse side.

Although Qu Youying had never been to other countries, she still recognized at a glance that this jade pendant was a token of the Chinese royal family.

The royal family of Huaguo is given different patterns according to the level of status, and the peony flower is the national flower of Huaguo, which can only be owned by the prince who has been crowned by the emperor, or the current prince.

But now this jade pendant has been tightly placed in her palm, and there is still a little bit of warmth left on it.

"It turns out that you really are."

Qu Youying hooked her lips and smiled, her expression was indifferent, and she didn't know whether she was happy or worried.

After a long time, she reached out and brushed her hair, and a jade bracelet on her right hand slipped from her wrist, bringing out an unusually cold air.

Qu Youying was taken aback, this bracelet hadn't emitted such a coldness for a long time.

She put the bracelet in front of her eyes, and found that the flowing red silk inside, when the jade pendant in her hand approached, it suddenly became red, and the red gradually covered the entire jade bracelet.

Then, in an instant, it changed back to its original white.

"Could it be that this bracelet is also the property of the Chinese royal family?"

Back then, when Mu Jingzhu gave her this bracelet, she felt that it was different from other bracelets.

This bracelet will give people a feeling full of spirituality, so she loves it and wears it to this day.

It's just that she doesn't know that this bracelet is called Phoenix, and there is also a waist pendant corresponding to it, named Tianlong.

The moment Mu Jingzhu stepped into the carriage, the blood-colored waist on his waist suddenly flashed red.

The red light flickered and then disappeared suddenly, and even the color of the waist pendant turned white in an instant, but in just a moment, it returned to its original color.

Mu Jingzhu glanced down, pursed his lips, and did not speak.

But the other person in the carriage, a woman dressed in brocade clothes, suddenly said after seeing the jade pendant around his waist, "Have you made up your mind?" Do you really want to give up all your efforts and dedication so far for her? ”

The carriage bumped all the way forward, but Mu Jingzhu sat very straight, and when he heard this, he didn't even move his eyelashes.

"Yes."

"Okay."

The woman was holding a wooden box in both hands, and in the box were the seven red beads that Mu Jingzhu had obtained from Qu Youying.

Her expression looked very gentle, and even her tone was the same, "I promise you that I will give you back your freedom from now on." But you have to get the phoenix bracelet back. It was a token of the Empress of Huaguo, and it could not be revealed. ”

When Mu Jingzhu heard this, he untied the waist around his waist and handed it to her.

"And so I went."

Mu Jingzhu got up and lifted the curtain, the carriage was still running, but he didn't ask the coachman to stop.

"Is that all you thinking about leaving? After all, I am your mother. Although I didn't raise you since I was a child, but blood is thicker than water, can't you spend more time with me? ”

Mu Jingzhu stood in front of the curtain of the car, standing in the wind, and did not look back because of these words.

He looked straight ahead and said word by word, "In the royal family, there is only interests, not affection." That's what you taught me too. What I've done so far is just to pay back what this identity should be. Now that your goal has been achieved, the rest has nothing to do with me, and if we have the opportunity to meet, you will still be my mother. ”

With that, he jumped out of the carriage and disappeared around the corner of the street in the midst of the pedestrians.

"Master, do you want people to follow?"

The coachman slowed down the carriage, looked at the place where Mu Jingzhu had disappeared, and asked the people in the carriage softly.

"No need. He is a child of royalty, my son, and one day, he will go back to where he belongs. ”

The humble carriage quietly left the city gates, as if it were just a carriage that went out for a short time, and did not attract any attention.

But under the stall outside the teahouse at the city gate, Jiang Tong, who was dressed in cloth, put down the teacup in his hand after watching the carriage go out.

Mu Yu, who was opposite him, saw the carriage disappearing and said, "Young master, do you want to catch up?" ”

"No, you don't." Jiang Tong picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, took another sip, and seemed to like the tea leaves of this house, "Even if they get the red beads, they can't find a place without the ancient scroll as an introduction." ”

"But the ancient scroll is not in the hands of King Yi, and it is missing in Shuifu, but it is not found. Where do you think that thing will be? ”

Mu Yu has been looking for the ancient scrolls these days, but he just didn't find them.

"There's no hurry." Jiang Tong finally finished the tea in his hand, wiped his mouth elegantly, got up from the stool, Mu Yu immediately paid, followed behind him, and heard him say, "Follow Qu Youying, there will always be unexpected gains." ”

Mu Yu's eyes moved, and she said in a low voice, "Could it be that the young master thinks that the thing is in her hands?" ”

"It shouldn't be there yet, but it may be soon."

Jiang Tong smiled mysteriously, he hooked his finger at Mu Yu, Mu Yu immediately approached, listened to him whisper a few words, and then nodded and left.

Jiang Tong walked alone on the street, wandering all the way, looking at this, buying that, because he looked good, he attracted the favor of many women along the way.

Finally he stopped in front of a drugstore and stared at it for a long time, then he walked in with a smile.

When Qu Youying yawned and came out of the room, she saw Jiang Tong coming to her with a plate of food.

"I know you're back, so I prepared something delicious for you. If you're willing to sit down and eat slowly, I don't mind telling you where the candles are. ”

A word blocked Qu Youying's way, and she turned sideways to let Jiang Tong walk in.

Seeing him skillfully arranging the plates, he suddenly smiled and said, "You, a pampered prince, would actually do such a thing?" Quite skilled. ”

"I'm a man who knows everything."

Jiang Tong raised his eyebrows and motioned for her to sit down.

Qu Youying sat down opposite him, and Jiang Tong took the initiative to pour her a cup of tea, "I originally wanted to ask you for a drink, but I was afraid that you would think I had a purpose, so I prepared some tea for you." You taste it, it tastes good. ”

Qu Youying lowered her head and took a sip, the fragrance of the tea was very familiar, "This tea is only available in my house, you go to my house to get it?" ”

"I won't tell you." Jiang Tong gave her a chopstick dish, "Eat." I'll tell you where he went. ”

Qu Youying didn't move her chopsticks for a long time, it was really because Jiang Tong was too strange today.

As the saying goes, there is nothing to be done, and it is either a traitor or a thief.

Jiang Tong happened to be a treacherous leader, so Qu Youying simply got straight to the point.

"Tell me, what do you want from me by tempting me with a candle? The red beads of the seven bitterness of Buddhism, or the ancient scrolls of Shuifu? ”

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Jiang Tong's face revealed a perfect arc. I want to talk about "Bone Physiognomy" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
