Chapter 3: A New Life 1
Situ Qi led Mu Yuqing to the grave of Mu Qianye and his wife. Mu Yuqing looked at the tombstone in front of her and knelt on the ground suddenly, "Dad, mother." Tears kept falling.
Situ Qi took a few steps forward, wanting to step forward and hold this sad girl in his arms, but thinking of her reaction in the carriage just now, he stood there and watched her cry.
About an hour passed. Mu Yuqing stood up slowly, but her legs, which had been kneeling for a long time, had already become numb and unconscious, and at the moment when she was about to fall, a figure came over and caught her.
"Let me go! I can do it alone. ”
Situ Qi saw her intentions, "The village has been burned down, come with me." If you want revenge, I can help you. ”
"Help me? How can you help me? Is it okay if I kill you? Mu Yuqing's emotions were obviously excited.
Yes, when you kill the murderer behind the scenes, and when I finish my heart, my life will be given to you. Situ Qi didn't dare to say it easily, so he gently clicked on Mu Yuqing's sleeping hole, carried her back to the carriage, and the carriage drove all the way south.
When Mu Yuqing woke up, she was already in the Seven Kings' Mansion.
Mu Yuqing slowly opened her eyes, and what greeted her was a pink and yellow curtain, and the twilight was slightly cool. Overhead is a tassel that sways gently in the wind. She moved uncomfortably, and found that the intricate and gorgeous clouds of silk were spread under her like water, so soft. From time to time, a burst of rosewood wafts in, quiet and beautiful. Next to the couch is the window, exquisite carving, rare wood. Outside the window, there is a beautiful scene, rockery, small pond, blue lotus root, pink water lotus. From time to time, a little maid passed by, but the footsteps were very soft, and the sound of conversation was also very soft.
This is a life that Mu Yuqing has never enjoyed in the first half of her life, but she can't like it, because her father's revenge has not been avenged, and her brother is nowhere to be found.
The "squeak" door opened. A maid dressed in goose yellow walked in, "Girl, the prince asked the slave maid to take you to dinner." ”
Mu Yuqing lowered her eyes: Lord Wang, could it be said that Su Qi is a prince? That might explain why he was hunted down. Mu Yuqing decided to follow the maid to find out.
Mu Yuqing followed the maidservant through the rockery, passed the Drunken Moon Pavilion, and walked about one or two hundred meters to the place where the meal was eaten. "Girl, please, the prince is waiting inside." The maidservant pointed in the direction and withdrew.
Mu Yuqing looked at the man sitting at the table, and sure enough, it was him. In fact, when she just came, she had already thought about it, if she went back to Maple Village now, she might be starved to death in a short time, let alone revenge, now this man turned out to be the prince, but she could also use his strength to strengthen herself and then kill the enemy with her own hands.
Situ Qi looked at Mu Yuqing's empty eyes, thinking that she was thinking of Mu Qianye and his wife again. He strode up to her, "What are you thinking?" Don't come in for dinner yet? Then he dragged her in.
Mu Yuqing looked at the table covered with all kinds of dishes that she had never seen before. Situ Qi was already moving slowly, he scooped a spoonful of porridge into his bowl and filled another bowl for Mu Yuqing, and found that Mu Yuqing was still sitting there motionless.
"Is it true that you said you would help me get revenge?" Mu Yuqing looked into Situ Qi's eyes, trying to see if he was lying in his eyes.
"Hmm." said lightly, but Mu Yuqing's heart calmed down.
"Do you know who those guys are?"
"Eat first, and after a few days, when you get used to life here, I will let Yixue and Ziqian come over to teach you martial arts and medical skills, and when you become stronger, I will tell you when the time comes." Situ Qi actually knew who those black-clothed people were, so he just didn't want her to be involved.
"Can you start tomorrow?" Mu Yuqing really didn't want to waste time for revenge.
"Okay."
After hearing his response, Mu Yuqing started to eat, to be honest, the best thing she had ever eaten before was the roast chicken that her brother made for him, but she didn't expect that the things here were much better than the roast chicken, and she didn't be polite to Situ Qi, so she ate as much as she wanted.
After dinner, "Biluo, Bihan, in the future, Miss Mu will be your master, and Miss Mu's words are equivalent to the words of this king." ”
Kill one and kill two who were guarding outside the door heard Situ Qi's words, and raised their heads suddenly, and their eyes were about to fall out: Master, what's the matter, there has never been a girl who can dine with the prince before, but Miss Mu made an exception. Biluo, Bihan are the two women with the best martial arts in the Seven Killing Pavilion, and now they let Biluo and Bihan serve Miss Mu, and let us obey Miss Mu's words. Don't........
Mu Yuqing listened to his words, and her mood was a little complicated. She lowered her head: was he guilty?
"Take Miss Mu back to Ningxiang Pavilion!" Situ Qi left after giving Biluo's instructions.
Mu Yuqing sent the maidservant girl in the Ning Xiang Pavilion, untied her shirt, took off her dirty clothes, and stretched her jade feet into the bath bucket full of roses, the warm water made her feel indescribable pleasure, she couldn't help moaning, feeling that the fatigue of the past few days had been washed away before she slowly got up and put on her clothes. Maybe it was because she was in a strange place at first, but she lay in bed without sleeping, and kept going around in bed.
A figure stayed outside her room until nearly the early hours of the morning, and when Mu Yuqing fell asleep, she went back to Fengyuxuan to lie down.
The next day, after breakfast, a man came, a woman dressed like a man in an apricot-colored robe, with a long sword pinned to her waist, her long hair coiled up with a crown, and her face exuded a heroic spirit, which looked radiant.
"Miss Mu, this is Miss Yixue." Biluo opened her mouth to introduce her.
Mu Yuqing blessed Yi Xue.
"Miss Mu doesn't have to be polite, the prince called her to teach her martial arts, and she can be called Yixue in the future." Yi Xue clasped her hands into fists and bowed to Mu Yuqing.
"Miss Mu, Miss Yixue, the prince has specially prepared a venue for the two of them to practice martial arts, please come here!" Biluo leads the way in front.
Mu Yuqing and Yixue followed Biluo all the way to the stable, which was empty, there was only one stable, and the horses were quietly enjoying breakfast in it, and on the opposite side of the stable were several wings, one of which was to put some weapons, bows, crossbows, spears, and swords; One is used to rest when she is tired of practicing martial arts, and the other room is equipped with a small bed and a couch, and there are some women's clothes specially worn to practice martial arts, which should be prepared for her.
"Miss Mu, you go and change your clothes first, and then run five laps in this racecourse." After Yixue finished explaining, she went into the small room to rest.
Mu Yuqing looked at the clothes she had changed on, a robe wrapped her, she only needed to tie a belt around her waist, and sure enough, this dress was obviously not as cumbersome as the one just now. After changing her clothes, she was already running.
At first, she was still at ease, but in the third lap, she had obviously slowed down, and she was glad that she usually went to climb the mountain to help her father dig herbs, otherwise it was estimated that she would have to fall in the third lap. Sweat flowed down Mu Yuqing's cheeks, and on the fourth lap, he obviously felt that his clothes were wet, and his speed was slower than his usual walking.
Yi Xue looked at Mu Yuqing's embarrassed appearance in the room, and she didn't mean to stop at all.
Finally at the beginning of the fifth lap, Mu Yuqing stopped, gasped for breath, put one hand on her waist, and looked at Yi Xue in the room, "This is only five laps, how can you practice martial arts with such physical fitness?" How can you avenge your father? Thinking of this, she started running again.
When I was about to finish my run, I said, "Yes, I can hold on." Yixue walked out of the room.
"Below, Zamabu, come, watch my movements." Yixue didn't give her time to rest, and directly started the next process.
She wiped her sweat and immediately followed the example of Yixue and stepped up again.
"Legs, not bent enough." A small stick was hit on his calf.
She spread her legs as far as she could and half-squatted.
"Waist, not straight enough." She received another blow to her waist.
"Well, yes, you can stay in this position for an hour." After Yixue finished speaking, she left again, leaving herself here alone.
I don't know if it's my own psychological effect or what, Mu Yuqing always feels that today's sun is particularly scorching, if it was a normal temperature just now, then now she is like a pig that has been roasted on a rack, sweat falls in her eyes, in her mouth, penetrates into her clothes, and falls to the ground.
Biluo was wiping her sweat beside her, and said to her, "Miss, do you want to take a break and drink saliva first?" ”
Mu Yuqing shook her head, although she also wanted to stop, but she couldn't stop, she still had revenge to avenge.
A quarter of an hour later, Mu Yuqing's legs were already shaking, and her face was flushed. In the end, she still couldn't hold it anymore, and fell to the ground panting desperately.
Yixue didn't come out to stop her from resting, because she knew that for a woman who had never practiced martial arts, it was already great to be able to run five laps in this four- or five-hundred-meter racecourse.
Mu Yuqing rested for a while and immediately got up again and started her horse again, maybe because she had rested for a while just now, and now she can hold on longer, but she still can't last for an hour, but she will always force herself to tie up for a longer time after resting.
She didn't know when Yixue left, she knew that when Biluo came to call her, it was already time for lunch.
"Miss, Miss Yixue said that you can rest, today's practice will be here first, she won't come over in the past few days, let Miss run five laps by herself in the next few days, and then walk for an hour." Biluo and Bihan helped Mu Xueqing, who had just finished stepping on the horse, to return to Ningxiang Pavilion.
Mu Yuqing is afraid that she has never been so embarrassed in her life, her legs have been shaking after tying the horse steps, as if she is completely uncontrollable, and she feels that her feet seem to be filled with lead, and her calves and waist have been soaked with sweat and painful. I never used others to serve me in the bath before, but today I actually asked Biluo Bihan and the two of them to help them into the bath tub.
Fortunately, Biluo prepared the bathing water in advance, and now she is soaking in the warm water, feeling that her body is slowly relaxing, and her legs are not so shaky and heavy, although the place where she was beaten by the stick is a little black, but she feels much more comfortable now.
After lunch, Mu Yuqing lay on the couch and closed her eyes to recuperate.
After a while: "Miss, Ziqian Gongzi is here." ”
"Biluo, Bihan." Mu Yuqing originally wanted to get up and dress up by herself, but her legs were still a little weak.
Biluo and the two came in response, helped Mu Yuqing dress up, and helped her to the next room.
There was a man drinking tea in the wing, and Mu Yuqing was stunned when he looked at it. She originally thought that this Ziqian son was at least thirty or forty years old, but she didn't expect it to be a twenty-year-old son.
A pair of clear eyes that seemed to be dripping with gentle water were set on a perfectly handsome face, and his long hair covered his smooth forehead, hanging down to his thick and slender eyelashes, and under a white robe was a delicate skin that no one could match.
It wasn't until the man bowed his head and smiled at her that her face turned red, and she realized her rudeness just now, and hurriedly blessed the man.
"Sit down, I heard your name is Mu Yuqing, right? Don't you mind if I call you Qing'er? ”
Looking at the man in front of her, Mu Yuqing felt as if her brother was by her side, she nodded and sat next to Ziqian.
"Okay, then let's start by recognizing herbs!"
After half a book, Mu Yuqing has mastered it well, after all, she had learned a little from Dr. Wang in Maple Village before, and she often went to the mountains to dig herbs.
Time passed quickly, and an afternoon passed like this, Ziqian touched her head and said with a smile when she left: "I didn't expect to find you This girl is quite talented, okay, these two books will be left for you to remember first, and I will test you again tomorrow, I will leave first." ”
Maybe she felt that Ziqian was closer, she didn't reject his touch, and sent him out with a smile.
Situ Qi didn't know what he was doing, he hadn't seen him all day, and she was eating dinner alone, but for her, maybe it would be better not to see him!
In the evening, Mu Yuqing opened the two medical books given by Ziqian in the afternoon, perhaps because she was interested in medicine, so she was so fascinated that she didn't even notice Situ standing beside her.
"Ahem"
Mu Yuqing glanced at Biluo next to her, and saw that Biluo was looking at her left, she turned her head and was startled, and saw Situ Qi standing on her left, still holding a white porcelain bottle in his hand.
Mu Yuqing just remembered to salute, he pulled him over, sat on the couch, only to see him pick up his skirt, roll up his dirty pants, open the white porcelain bottle in his hand, Mu Yuqing smelled the smell of medicinal wine.
"Lord, I'll just come by myself." Two good-looking red clouds floated on Mu Yuqing's face, struggling to get up, but she didn't want Situ Qiyi to grab her legs, so that she couldn't move.
Biluo and Bihan also automatically exited the door when they saw it, and closed the door by the way.
"Don't move, that's the injury you got this morning?" He picked up the medicinal wine in his hand and wiped some on Mu Yuqing's legs, "There will be a little pain, bear with it." Then she rubbed her hand back and forth in the black area, and she felt the warmth from his palm, and her face suddenly turned even redder.
Mu Yuqing looked at the man who was half-squatting on the ground, the moonlight sprinkled on his side face, and his originally good-looking eyebrows wrinkled, looking like he was worried. In fact, his movements were very light, as if he was wiping his own treasure. Mu Yuqing was suddenly attracted by his serious appearance.
In fact, if his father and mother are still there, he is so good-looking, she should like him!
