Chapter 11: The Sin of Bullying

Mu Zixiao didn't know how to comfort people, let alone how to answer this word, Mu Zixiao didn't expect that he was just asking him to tell himself about the situation, but he inadvertently tore open the wound in Huo Nanqi's heart, and he could see that the pain had been pressed in his heart for a long time and endured for a long time.

But if that master also came from this world like himself, would he still leave some clues to allow him to go back, after all, whether he is really dead or coming back, no one else knows. But now Huo Nanqi's state can't be mentioned anymore, and we'll see if there is still a chance in the future.

"I'm sorry." Although Mu Zixiao apologized gently, he was also sincere.

"It's none of your business, I'm the one who should say I'm sorry." Huo Nanqi lowered his eyes, rested his elbows on the table, held his forehead with both hands and whispered, "If it weren't for me, he wouldn't be either." If Huo Nanqi had been in the past, he might have been furious at this time and let others get out, but what happened in the past two days, he was a little puzzled.

"I, hey! I'm really sorry. After apologizing, Mu Zi smiled, his face froze for a moment, and he saw a tear falling on the table under Huo Nanqi.

A person who was whipped on his body and had never frowned or said a word, but at this moment he was crying in front of another person, and Mu Zixiao was a little overwhelmed, and even fidgeted.

He remembered that every time he was wronged and cried, his mother would hug him, and he also wanted to hug Huo Nanqi at the moment, and when he just stood up and was about to do that, it was suddenly dark in front of him, and the candle flame went out.

Xu is Huo Nanqi realized that he was out of shape, raised his hand to extinguish the light in the room, the man at the table got up, and a low and somewhat hoarse voice sounded above Mu Zixiao's forehead: "Sleep." I have to enter the palace tomorrow. ”

"Hmm." Muzi didn't move after laughing, but when he heard Huo Nanqi get on the bed, he couldn't move his feet.

Today he poked other people's scars and made him cry, isn't it good to go like this, but if he can put out the candle, he should not want Mu Zixiao to see him anymore, but he feels so guilty that he can't do it, and he always feels that he should be by Huo Nanqi's side at this time, even if he shares a little bad emotions for him.

After holding back for a long time, Mu Zixiao climbed onto Huo Nanqi's bed.

"What are you doing here?" I clearly felt that Huo Nanqi's voice was a little stiff.

"I'm afraid of the dark." Mu Zixiao made a bad excuse.

"I'll go light the lights." Huo Nanqi said.

"No, I don't dare sleep alone." Mu Zixiao suddenly felt that there was probably no one in the world who was more shameless than himself, and he didn't even want to blurt out such a bad excuse, just to climb into a man's bed.

In the dark, Huo Nanqi's body moved against the wall, and then he was silent, Mu Zixiao didn't dare to speak anymore, just when Mu Zixiao thought he was asleep, there was a voice in his ear: "Thank you." Muzi shook his head silently and said in a low voice: "Don't say thank you to me again in the future, I owe you from the beginning." ”

"It's good to know you. Where it comes from, it doesn't matter. Although he couldn't see Huo Nanqi's expression, at this moment Mu Zixiao heard a hint of softness in his tone, pulled up the corners of the quilt and covered his body, and bent his eyes and said, "Me too." After a sleepless night, Mu Zixiao had no intention of mentioning his origins, even if he fell asleep, he was half asleep, and his mind was constantly interspersed with pictures of his past life, if he had the opportunity, he would go back.

In the early morning of the second day, it was still Huo Nanqi who got up first, if it weren't for the fact that when he came in with his official uniform, he saw Mu Zixiao sleeping on Huo Nanqi's bed again, blushing inexplicably, and said in a low voice: "Major General." ”

"Shhhh Huo Nanqi lowered his voice, afraid that it would make Mu Zixiao, who looked ugly in his sleep.

Xu was still thinking about entering the palace today before going to bed last night, Mu Zixiao slept very lightly, and when he heard the sound of opening the door, he woke up a little, he pretended to be confused and asked, "What time is it?" ”

"Mu Gongzi, it's just past the hour." If it weren't for the Tao.

"Oh. Then I got up. Mu Zixiao opened his eyes and saw that the sky outside was not yet bright, and he estimated that it was five or six o'clock, but it was really early.

Huo Nanqi saw him get up, and he didn't say anything, but still explained that if he went to get the women's clothes, Mu Zixiao finished changing his clothes, and was a little puzzled: "Are you trying to deceive the emperor?" ”

"It's to show your heart." Huo Nanqi's words were not light or serious, but Mu Zixiao's heart trembled, and he said in his heart: "This... Is it confessing to me? It's only been a few minutes, and Mu Zixiao has already thought about it a lot.

What Although he is very handsome, but he is also a man, not very good, why is he inexplicably a little happy in his heart, am I really converted, what is this in ancient times, he is a dignified young general, can others accept it, will the emperor condemn Huo Nanqi's guilt, the more Mu Zixiao thought about it, the more chaotic he became, and said casually: "Don't, don't joke." ”

Huo Nanqi looked at his blushing face a little inexplicably, and said with a smile: "I'm not joking, I just want the emperor to know that I'd rather find a fake woman to pretend than marry that An Zhirui." ”

"Ahh I see, I thought. Mu Zixiao felt a little lost, he thought that Huo Nanqi liked himself, he thought too much, and he thought about it, how could it be, he was a general, an obvious straight man, Mu Zixiao secretly made up his mind that he would never think nonsense in the future, and put his identity upright.

"Why?" Huo Nanqi said.

"Nothing, I'm hungry." Mu Zixiao smiled awkwardly, hiding the sadness that the fire had just been extinguished.

After eating, if it weren't for the carriage, Huo Nanqi and Mu Zixiao sat quietly in the carriage and listened to the sound of the horsewhip falling together, silent all the way.

Entering the palace, Mu Zixiao had no intention of looking at the luxurious and dazzling scenery in the palace, and silently followed behind Huo Nanqi, Huo Nanqi explained him some rules, and he also responded lightly, without his usual vigor.

As if sensing that something was wrong with Mu Zixiao, Huo Nanqi whispered, "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"Hmm." Mu Zixiao looked at the starry dark eyes and nodded.

"Major General, the emperor is still changing clothes, please wait a moment." A father-in-law in a gray-blue python robe walked in front of him, about forty years old, bent his eyes and smiled, and the fingers overlapped in front of him were slightly orchid fingers, and said softly.

"Thank you, Father-in-law De, Father-in-law De looks good today." Huo Nanqi bowed slightly to show that he returned the salute.

Father-in-law De's face was full of joy, touched his face and said, "The young general is polite, hey, this handsome little lady is the girl?" Father-in-law De looked at it, and said in surprise: "Young General, he, a man?" ”

"Hmm." Huo Nanqi replied.

"Yo, the little boy with such beautiful eyebrows, it's the first time we've seen it, no wonder the Seventh Prince wanted to compete with the young general yesterday." Father-in-law De hid his face and smiled, and after Muzi laughed at this, he had goosebumps on his back.

Huo Nanqi smiled and said nothing, and Gonggong De glanced back at Muzi and said with a smile: "Please come with the slave." The look seemed to be suspicious, and Mu Zixiao didn't pay much attention to it, but felt that maybe Gonggong De just hadn't looked at the man in women's clothes.

Just enter the palace door, it can really be said that the carved beams and paintings are brilliant, the ground paved with fine white jade shines with warm light, the inner pillars of the main hall are supported by a number of red giant pillars, each pillar is engraved with a whirling coiling, lifelike golden dragon, it is extraordinarily magnificent.

In the center of the hall sat the emperor of the current dynasty, his bright yellow robe embroidered with the pattern of the dragon of the sea, and his sword-like eyebrows flew obliquely into a few strands of black hair under the corner of the temples, and the majesty was intimidating.

"Minister Huo Nanqi respectfully invites the emperor to be a saint." Huo Nanqi bowed his head and bowed.

"Grass people Muzi smiled and respectfully asked the emperor to be saintly, long live the emperor, long live long live." Mu Zixiao knelt down with Huo Nanqi, followed his example, pressed his left hand on his right hand, supported it on the ground, and then slowly kowtowed to the ground, not daring to make any mistakes.

"Flat." Emperor Zhou Shidi looked at Mu Zixiao, who was getting up, paused, and said, "What is that Mu, come over and let me take a closer look." ”

Muzi smiled and glanced at Huo Nanqi, Huo Nanqi nodded to indicate that it was okay, and walked over respectfully, Emperor Zhou Shidi looked at it for a long time, and whispered a few words in Xiao Dezi, and suddenly changed his face and shouted at Huo Nanqi: "What a bold man, you are guilty!" This shout frightened Mu Zixiao and almost knelt on the ground with a weak leg.

"Minister, willing to admit guilt, please punish the emperor." Huo Nanqi was neither humble nor arrogant, his face did not change, and he knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty! The fault lies with the grass people, and it has nothing to do with Huo Nanqi. Seeing this, Muzi smiled and lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down.

"Oh? Then tell me what you did wrong? "Emperor Zhou Shidi touched his beard with his hand, and his face was not good.

"Grass people." As soon as Mu Zixiao said two words, Huo Nanqi hurriedly interjected: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with him, all cause and effect arise from the ministers, and I hope that my emperor will not implicate others." Knowing that the emperor's temper was a little strange, Huo Nanqi thought that it was nothing more than being grounded for a few days, and it was a big deal to temporarily remove his military power, which was better than the emperor pointing the finger at Mu Zixiao.

"Shut up, I want to hear him." Emperor Zhou Shidi was still staring at Mu Zixiao with an uncertain expression.

"Your Majesty, the grass people have liked to dress up as men and women since they were children, and because of their parents' love, they have always claimed that the grass people are daughters, no wonder the young general misunderstood." Muzi smiled and said lightly, as if what he said was true.

"Do you know that the crime of bullying the king is to kill the head, do you think that I can't find out your life experience?" Emperor Zhou Shidi snorted coldly, Mu Zixiao turned slightly pale, and continued: "If the emperor wants to kill, then please kill, but the grass people still have a reluctant request." ”

"The one who is about to die, I have allowed you." Emperor Wu of Zhou waved his hand, and he had the wind of a king.

"I also ask the emperor to exempt Huo Nanqi from responsibility. The grass people thank the lord Long. Mu Zixiao lowered his head and thought in his heart: "Relive a lifetime, it will be offline in less than a week, hey, it should be regarded as returning Huo Nanqi's favor, I hope I can go back after my death this time." ”

When Huo Nanqi heard these words, his face changed slightly: "Your Majesty, everything is instructed by the minister, Mu Zixiao is just obeying the orders of the minister, and the minister is willing to remove the name of the general and go home to farm." Huo Nanqi guessed that Emperor Zhou Shi wanted him to accept An Zhirui softly, and his heart was inexplicably angry, Emperor Wu of Zhou looked at Huo Nanqi with a strange expression, and said, "Don't you want a name?" Just to protect him? Your father will be by you when he hears it. ”

"The minister's mind has been decided, and I hope the emperor will approve it." After saying that, he stood up and took out the tiger talisman in his arms and presented it with both hands, Huo Nanqi looked at Mu Zixiao and felt a little more uneasy in his heart, but Mu Zixiao's expression of being okay made Huo Nanqi's heart attack.

Xiao Dezi hurriedly walked to Huo Nanqi's side, pushed the tiger talisman in his hand, and said, "Young General, please take it back, this can't be taken out casually." He turned his head and whispered to Emperor Wu of Zhou: "Our emperor won't play anymore, the young general has to take it seriously." ”

"Hahaha! It's a big game this time, so let's get up. Emperor Zhou Shidi stood up, looked at Huo Nanqi and Muzi with a smile, and said: "Nanqi's eye for people is really good, what Zhirui said yesterday was very ugly, I thought that you were blinded by a fox, you are a man, and I am relieved." ”

"Your Majesty! The minister was reluctant to marry An Zhirui. Huo Nanqi still knelt and didn't get up, Mu Zixiao looked at Emperor Zhou Shidi who suddenly changed his face with a blank face, and said in his heart: "This girl is playing with us, like a roller coaster, up and down, heh!" This emperor is really indescribable! Although he was tired from kneeling, seeing that Huo Nanqi didn't get up, he continued to stiffen.

"I know! I won't interfere in this matter again, and you won't make such a fuss in the future. Nanqi, you are not young anymore, you should always reach the age of starting a family and starting a business, and you must pay attention as soon as possible. Emperor Zhou Shidi said, showing a good boss and a good boss, Emperor Zhou Shidi's original intention was just to probe and look at Huo Nanqi's attitude towards An Zhirui, maybe he didn't expect that he would rather remove the title of general for an unknown grass people, not to mention, this person just looks a little similar at first glance, but his temperament seems to be different, and Huo Nanqi is unwilling to say a soft word to marry An Zhirui, this matter is still not forced, after all, he prefers Huo Nanqi compared to An Zhirui.

"Emperor Xie, the ministers obey the order." Huo Nanqi put away the tiger talisman and stood up and looked at Mu Zi with a smile.
