Chapter 95: What is hidden in the jar
Shen Muxi woke up from sleep, still in the medicine house, but there was a person sitting opposite, and she was so shocked that she quickly straightened up, and she didn't know when she fell asleep last night?! Low eyebrows found themselves crouched on soft pillows, no wonder they slept so soundly.
"But you dreamed of this king?" Bo Yunxiu closed the fold in his hand, "Bar click", "Saliva is flowing out!" ”
Shocked, Shen Muxi hurriedly wiped his mouth, and Xu Yu glared at him fiercely, "Why are you here?" ”
"This is the palace, this king doesn't sit here, is it possible to go to the room?" When he said this, he dipped his pen in ink, and he didn't even lift his eyelids, and his tone was extremely skillful.
But seeing that he raised his sword eyebrows, he seemed to be displeased, and he was struggling to write, and his expression was extremely focused.
Shen Muxi was suddenly in a trance, vaguely as if he had returned to the old days, he was writing with a pen on the side, she sat quietly watching him, not saying anything, not having to say anything, but the years were very quiet.
I haven't heard her chatter for a long time, Bo Yunxiu finally looked up, just in time to see her half-hanging eyebrows, slightly sluggish appearance, her heart moved slightly, "Why don't you speak?" ”
Shen Muxi got up, rubbed his shoulders, stretched his waist, and turned his head to look at the sun outside, "The prince likes to stay here, so stay there, I won't disturb the prince's work, say goodbye!" ”
With that, she walked away.
But when he passed by him, he grabbed his wrist violently, "Where are you going?" ”
"Go back to your room!" She rolled her eyes angrily, and brushed his hand away by the way, "Make breakfast for Zhi'er!" ”
It wasn't until Shen Muxi left that Huang Li dared to come in from the outside, "Wang ......"
"Clean up!" Bo Yunxiu walked away, "This king is hungry!" ”
"Let's go and pass breakfast!" Huang Li was busy.
Who knew that Bo Yunxiu immediately glanced at him coldly, and was so shocked that he was full of trembling, what was wrong? Thinking of the whip marks on his back, the millet rolled out of his throat, and the prince became more and more moody, how can this be good?
Because he got up late, Shen Zhi was in a hurry to enter the palace, and Shen Muxi only made a few bowls of plum blossom soup cakes. Now that Bo Yu is not in the palace, those people no longer bully Shen Zhi, and naturally Shen Muxi does not need to make lunch every day, only occasionally make some snacks for the children to bring, and share the same taste with a few little guys.
Huang Li stood outside the kitchen and shook his head in a daze, the prince was really hungry, he had eaten so little in the past, but whenever Dr. Shen cooked, he would not stop until he had a ruddy face.
Sending Shen Zhi away, Ah Luo began to clean up.
Shen Muxi went back to the room to change his clothes, but as soon as he went out, someone was sitting in the corridor.
Looking at the sun outside the eaves, Shen Muxi frowned and looked at Bo Yunxiu, who was dressed in simple clothes, "The prince is not busy today?" ”
"Not busy!"
Shen Muxi nodded, walked out, but found that Bo Yunxiu had also followed, and couldn't help but look back and ask, "The prince wants to leave the mansion?" ”
Bo Yunxiu's face did not change, "Yes!" ”
Heh, so well-behaved today? Ask questions.
Ignoring him anymore, Shen Muxi stroked his cuffs, and strode towards the outside of the mansion, but today is really evil, Bo Yunxiu is still following her, she walks fast, he also follows fast, she slows down, he also slows down, and always keeps a certain distance from her, like a tail that can't be shaken off.
Sighing helplessly, Shen Muxi stood on the side of the street and looked at him, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Go to the hospital!" Bo Yunxiu was the first to walk ahead of her.
Shen Muxi frowned, he never went to the medical hall to join in the fun, he was so busy that he couldn't touch the ground, how could he be so free today? It's a rarity. After thinking about it, was it because he was worried that Lu Guizhou would come to the hospital after he recovered from his injury, so this guy was ......
When he came back to his senses, Shen Muxi chased after him with a cold face.
Bo Yunxiu really entered the medical hall, as if he was entering the palace, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider at all. After entering, he sat down in front of the consultation desk with a big grin, just waiting for Shen Muxi to enter the door.
The shopkeeper hurried to make tea, and the guy and the little medicine boy stood on the side tremblingly.
In this formation, Shen Muxi's face was as black as ink, "Go to work, you don't have to be here." ”
But the prince is sitting here, who dares to be contemptuous?
"Bo Yunxiu, if you don't come to see a doctor, please go upstairs?" Shen Muxi had a cold face.
Bo Yunxiu got up and went upstairs, the shopkeeper hurried upstairs to serve tea, closed the door, and everyone's hearts finally fell, what will happen in the house next, it all depends on Dr. Shen's own creation.
"Bo Yunxiu, what do you want to do?" Shen Muxi frowned at him.
"The medical hall is prepared with the help of the palace, so it's not too much to inspect it, right?" Bo Yunxiu picked up the cup and snorted, she seemed to be in a good mood, and there was a faint smile between her eyebrows, but this smile was only for her, "Doctor Shen is not welcome?" ”
"Welcome!" Shen Muxi sat upright, how could he be afraid of him. Zuo But now Ah Luo will go to find the source of the nail, if there is news, she will inevitably have to go out.
That's it, one step at a time.
By noon, Ah Luo didn't come, and Shen Muxi couldn't help but be a little worried, something else happened.
There are not many people on the street, and the weather is unbearably hot today, and under the scorching sun, even if it is made of iron, it has to be turned into water.
Bo Yu has been looking for a morning, squatting in the shade of the street corner, panting with a dry mouth, he has searched all the places where Yizhu will go, but there is no trace of Yizhu, and I don't know if something happened?
If it is according to the past, if the person is lost, it will definitely be reported to the yamen of the Eastern Capital, but now...... Bo Yu is nothing, once proud of the world, but now it has become a joke in the eyes of others.
shrunk back, the heat outside was unbearable, but Bo Yu didn't even have a bowl of water.
His lips were dry and his stomach was hungry.
To this day, Bo Yu knows how comfortable the days were at the beginning, he didn't cherish them, and now it's impossible to go back. At the beginning of his fall from the peak, he hated to tear Shen Muxi and Shen Zhi apart, but now?
You have to accept your fate and realize the fact that your fate is like a mustard!
A bowl of cold cakes rested gently at Bo Yu's feet, Ah Luo squatted down and shouted in a low voice, "Little boy! ”
Bo Yu raised his head in shock, and the dodge in his eyes made him even more embarrassed, "I don't know you!" ”
"It's okay if you don't know you, are you hungry?" Ah Luo picked up the cold cake, "This is from the store you liked to eat before, let's relieve the heat!" ”
Ah Luo occasionally saw Bo Yu, the little guy was sweaty, walking on the side of the street dejectedly, occasionally holding his stomach and rubbing it gently, which was Bo Yu's habitual action of being hungry. Ah Luo has served in the main courtyard for so many years, and he is quite familiar with Bo Yu's habits, and if there are any errands in the past, Yizhu asked Ah Luo to do it, so Ah Luo knows some of Bo Yu's preferences.
Bo Yu looked at Ah Luo steadily, the xiaolongbao given by Shen Zhi before had already been digested, this would be hungry, and he would feel tired even panting, not to mention that on this hot day, he was really a little heaty, and his little face was a little blue and white.
"Let's eat!" Ah Luo stepped forward, "No one will know, I won't tell anyone." ”
Bo Yu's breathing became more and more rapid, and he didn't know where he got the strength, so he coldly brushed away Ah Luo's hand, "You are Shen Muxi's person, you don't need to be pretending to be kind, go back and tell her that even if I Bo Yu starves to death outside, I won't eat a grain of rice from her!" ”
The cold cake fell to the ground, and the porcelain bowl shattered to pieces.
Ah Luo was shocked and wanted to shout to stop Bo Yu, but this kid ran away, just looking at his embarrassed back, Ah Luo didn't dare to speak again. Bo Yu's prejudice against Shen Muxi is too deep, and it can't be explained clearly in a few words.
Looking at the cold cakes scattered all over the ground at his feet, Ah Luo sighed lightly and got up, shaking his head helplessly.
Bo Yu disappeared in the blink of an eye, and Ah Luo was not easy to chase, lest Wei Xian'er and Yizhu would be unfavorable to him when the time came. Thinking of this, Ah Luo hurriedly went to the medical center, but he didn't expect that the prince would be in the medical hall. has already entered the door, and if you exit again, it will arouse the suspicion of the prince, so it is better to enter generously.
Ah Luo saluted, "Lord Wang! ”
"What's the point of being in such a hurry?" Bo Yunxiu flipped through the book of Chinese medicine.
But in Shen Muxi's room, there are always a few medical books, Bo Yunxiu has nothing to do, so he also flips through them, who let that guy say that if you want to understand a person's present, you can't look at it with old eyes, you have to look at what she is doing now, every word and deed.
What Shen Muxi likes to eat now, what he likes to do, and how to deal with things in case of trouble all need to be remembered.
"Say it!" Shen Muxi was writing the recipe, "Even if you don't say it, the prince will find out sooner or later, instead of twisting and turning, it is better to save this cover-up." ”
"Yes!" Ah Luo bowed his head, took out the handkerchief and put it on the table, "According to the clues given by Dr. Shen, the slave went to find it, there are two coffin shops in the eastern capital, one in the west and one in the north, but something has happened to this one in the north recently, so it is temporarily closed, because Ah Luo thinks that this nail may be from the coffin shop in the west." ”
Shen Muxi nodded, just put down the pen in his hand, and when he looked up, he suddenly saw Bo Yunxiu Yintang blackened, like a dark cloud, and hurriedly explained, "It's not what you think!" ”
"Looking for a coffin?" Bo Yunxiu looked at her coldly, "What are you looking for a coffin to do?" ”
When he said this, he almost scraped her inside and out with his eyes.
"I'm not sick!" Shen Muxi is righteous and strict, this guy won't think that she wants to buy a coffin for herself, right? Thinking of this, it is better to explain it, in case he makes a mess again, there may be some moth, "I'm investigating the death of the peony girl, not trying to find my own death!" ”
Bo Yunxiu's face softened slightly, "That's it?" ”
Ah Luo quickly opened the veil, revealing the coffin nails inside.
"Do you remember the peony girl in the Rouge Building?" Shen Muxi looked at him with his cheeks, "It's the one who is close to the prince and feeds wine with the prince, a girl who is as beautiful as a fairy!" The prince has read countless people, I'm afraid I don't remember? ”
Bo Yunxiu drank tea silently.
"She came to me and left a fan!" Shen Muxi got up, took a fan from the cabinet, and sniffed it lightly on the tip of his nose, "Why don't you sniff it, but also with the fragrance of fat powder left by the peony girl!" ”
As she spoke, she handed him the fan.
Bo Yunxiu glanced at her fiercely, and reached out to take it with a black face. But this woman's objects, where do he know how to distinguish, pinched it in his hand to look at it, and casually threw it on the table," he continued. ”
"The clues she left behind, I naturally have to see the tricks. There was a coffin nail hidden in the handle of the fan, so I asked Ah Luo to quietly inquire about how many coffin shops there were in the Eastern Capital. Shen Muxi reached out to get the coffin nail, but Bo Yunxiu grabbed his wrist violently.
His eyebrows frowned slightly, and Shen Muxi looked at him puzzled.
"How dare you hide such a big thing?" His strength was slightly heavy, and his pinching made her feel a little painful.
"It hurts!"
He immediately let go.
"What do you want to do next?" Bo Yunxiu asked.
Shen Muxi was surprised, when did he learn to discuss? When we meet again seven years later, it has changed a lot. Zuo However, when he was in Huli Village before, he had never seen him so easy to speak, he was always domineering, and he never changed his mind.
Sighing lightly, Shen Muxi smiled bitterly, "I'm going to go on a ......"
"This king will go with you!" Bo Yunxiu got up, grabbed her hand and walked out.
"Bo, Bo Yunxiu, I didn't say I wanted to take you there, I'll ......" Shen Muxi wanted to push him away, either pinched here or dragged there every day, where was still His Royal Highness Liwang, who was once cold and unattainable, he was simply a ruffian hooligan on the street, and he became addicted to taking advantage of himself.
Bo Yunxiu paused, "I may want to carry you away!" ”
The next moment, Shen Muxi's eyes widened in shock, and he kissed his face almost with lightning speed.
Sure enough, this trick worked best.
As soon as his wrist was loosened, Shen Muxi carried the hem of his skirt and went downstairs.
Bo Yunxiu's face suddenly turned red, and she reached out to touch the marks on her face, and the coldness between her eyebrows and eyes instantly turned into a soft finger. He took a deep breath, rubbed his hands together, and walked slowly down the stairs.
The most surprising thing is Huang Li, who stared at his own prince like a ghost, watching the prince not be annoyed, and walked down the stairs with steady steps, without any intention of punishment, as if he was ...... Still enjoying it?
Previously, Concubine Wei touched the prince slightly, and the prince's face could be black for a long time, but now that Dr. Shen took the initiative to attack, the prince looked like he was enjoying himself, which was simply breathtaking!
Could it be that the prince is really enchanted?
Before marrying Dr. Shen, it turned out that it was really not just talking.
"Let's go!" Bo Yunxiu came down the stairs, and her face was restored to its original state.
Shen Muxi frowned, "But you ......"
"This king didn't bring a secret guard today, only left alone, didn't wear fancy clothes, and didn't use his identity to suppress the power." Bo Yunxiu stood with her hands in her hands, "Do you want to go or not?" ”
"Let's go, let's go!" Shen Muxi nodded again and again.
If you don't leave, aren't you afraid of being carried on his shoulders again?! Now this guy covers the sky with one hand, and he can do everything.
Ah Luo and Yuegui followed from a distance, looking at each other, not knowing what to do? The prince is sticking to Dr. Shen like this, it really doesn't look like an ordinary style, and it looks a little weird.
Shen Muxi panicked in his heart, and always felt that Bo Yunxiu's return to the palace this time was very intriguing.
From the first day she met him, he has always been such a cold temperament, able to accompany you to mess around, can clean up the mess for you, but definitely not as gentle and sweet as you want. He doesn't talk about love and doesn't do anything that moves you, except to accompany you.
There is wind, and he blocks it.
When it rains, he blocks it.
Even if ten thousand arrows attack, he won't even frown, protecting you behind him.
But then, why did it become like that?
I thought too much in my head, and when I was about to come, Shen Muxi woke up and remembered that he was no longer Xia Wenxi, but Shen Muxi.
When he looked up, he saw Shen Muxi suddenly frozen in place.
Yongan ...... Teahouse?
The teahouse actually opened its doors and reopened, and the familiar figure at the door, limping with a bucket, washed the couplets at the door, moving slowly but very carefully.
Shen Muxi's whole heart was twisted and painful, and his feet were so heavy that they were like lead, so he stood quietly across the street, watching the man bend his waist and carefully rub the stone pier under the couplet. There are tears lingering in her eyes, and they have never fallen, where is she still qualified to cry?
Xu is aware of it, Xia Wenqing glanced back, but there was no abnormality, wiped the couplet, and walked limp towards the door.
Suddenly, Xia Wenqing turned back again.
This time, he finally saw the woman standing across the street, staring at the door of the Yongan Teahouse, a strange woman, but with a strange look, I don't know what she was looking at?
Doorway?
Xia Wenqing thought about it, turned back to the door and took a closer look, looking up and down, where was it not cleaned?
"Aqing, what are you doing? Why don't you come in and check this table? The shopkeeper shouted at the top of his voice.
"Hey, it's coming!" Xia Wenqing no longer hesitated, and limped in with the bucket.
Shen Muxi smiled bitterly and lowered her eyes, and when the shadow was close above her head, she slowly raised her head, and her face had returned to its original indifference. Looking up at him, she remembered her father on the guillotine, and the knife seemed to have slashed at her heart, it really hurt!
"Bo Yunxiu, do you have a time when your heart is weak?" She asked in a hoarse voice.
Bo Yunxiu looked at her fixedly and did not answer.
"That's it!" Shen Muxi turned around and left.
He has always been upright, how can he be weak-hearted? Besides, does this man really have a heart? Not necessarily.
"Lord Wang, Doctor Shen, this is it!" Ah Luo pointed straight.
This coffin shop is located in a remote place, and it is a very secluded small courtyard. A person's life, whether it is glorious and rich to the extreme, or falling into the dust like mud, will fall to the dust in this "square city", but it is still inevitable to be discouraged, I don't know whether it is ridiculous or sad.
"This is it!" Ah Luo went to knock on the door, but was stopped by Shen Muxi.
Yuegui had a lot of vision, and immediately flew up to the wall, took a look inside, and then nodded at Shen Muxi outside.
In this way, Shen Muxi relieved himself to let go of Ah Luo, who knows what is inside, in case there is any ambush, or some secret weapon or something, how can it be good to hurt Ah Luo?
Ah Luo knocked on the door for a long time, and finally a person came out of the house.
Shen Muxi and Bo Yunxiu stood side by side, while Yuegui and Huang Li were on the side, for fear of variables.
"Knock on what?" The one who opened the door was an old man, his gray hair tied behind his head, and he looked still in good spirits, "What about rushing to reincarnate?" ”
Ah Luo bowed, "Uncle, you are the ...... of this shop"
"Come in!" The old man glanced at the crowd, turned and walked inside.
Ah Luo was stunned, she hadn't finished saying this yet! Panicked, Ah Luo looked back at Shen Muxi, a little undecided.
"It's coming." Bo Yunxiu took Shen Muxi's hand and led her inside.
Shen Muxi hadn't decided whether to go in yet, but he was taken away by him, and he couldn't help but feel flustered, "You just went in like this?" Don't let Yuegui and Huang leave to explore, or ......"
"Open the door and welcome the monk!" Bo Yunxiu was cold.
Shen Muxi heard it in a fog, but with him by his side, he felt a lot more at ease, if something happened, his martial arts strength could still be a shield. Thinking like this, the hanging heart slowly retreated.
Turning his head, he just met someone's teasing look on his face.
Bo Yunxiu seemed to see through her careful thoughts, and clenched her hand more and more, eager to insert her wrist into his warm palm.
"What material you want to make, see for yourself!" The old man led the person into the hall and pointed to the wood standing in the corner of the wall, "Tell me when you've chosen!" ”
"Is this nail yours?" He stepped forward and spread out his palm, and there was the nail wrapped in a veil.
The old man smiled strangely, "So you're here to find that thing?" Okay, come along! ”
Everyone looked at each other, and the moon returned to the back of the palace.
The coffin is divided into a front hall and a backyard, a row of old wooden doors in the backyard, a few rooms with tightly pasted window paper, some doors and windows are in disrepair, and finally sealed with wood nails, although not beautiful, but firm. Walking with the old man in the cloister, the wind blew the wooden curtains on the cloister, coldly striking the pillars of the corridor, making a terrifying thudding sound. Fortunately, it was daytime, and if it was night, I would have been scared half to death. "Is this the coffin you're looking for?" The old man stepped through the door.
In the gloomy room, there was a dappled light streaming through the broken windows, but it was not enough to dispel the gloomy atmosphere of the house. There is a strong woody smell on the nose, and it is not clear how many woody smells are mixed.
Bo Yunxiu's gloomy eyes quickly swept around him.
The room is not big, but it is clear at a glance.
On the sawdust all over the floor, there are several sets of coffins that have not yet been painted.
The old man pointed to the coffin in the center, "It's inside." ”
"What's that?" Shen Muxi asked.
"And the woman said, 'Put it in it,' and if anyone comes with a nail, let her take it away." The old man shook his head, "Alas, what a sin! ”
Do evil?
Shen Muxi didn't quite understand, and Ah Luo was even more confused.
"What kind of iniquity?" Ah Luo asked.
The old man laboriously pushed open the lid of the coffin, "See for yourself!" ”
Bo Yunxiu grabbed Shen Muxi, and Yuegui took the lead in checking it, inside was a ceramic jar, and there were some strange small objects, such as tiger head hats, tiger head shoes, and some small clothes.
"What is this?" Ah Luo was surprised, "Why are they all children's things?" ”
took out the same thing, placed it on the small square table on the side in the same way, and Shen Muxi almost couldn't believe his eyes.
"Aren't these all children's stuff?" Shen Muxi took Shen Zhi alone, of course he understood how much it took to give birth to a child. Judging from the stitches of these tiger head hats and tiger head shoes, they are carefully embroidered with stitches and threads, and there are occasional skipping stitches, which are also dismantled and rebuilt.
"So what is this?" Yuegui took out the ceramic jar and held it in his arms with some weight, "It seems to be a water-like thing, I don't know what it contains." ”
The ceramic jar was placed on the table, and Huang Li motioned for everyone to step back, standing alone in front of Bo Yunxiu and Shen Muxi, pinching the lid of the porcelain jar with a handkerchief, and quickly opening the jar.
Bo Yunxiu's first reaction was to hide Shen Muxi behind him, staring coldly at the mouth of the opened jar.
There was a wisp of white smoke, slowly spilling out of the mouth of the can, fleeting.
Everyone retreated, all holding their breath.
What the hell is in here?
