Hearing a third person speak, Mu Rui hurriedly put away his presumptuousness, and with lightning speed, he put on a decent gentleman's appearance, smiled humbly, turned around, and looked at the door.

Looking up, his eyes met Liu Qingxin, Mu Rui's eyes froze slightly, and then, he awkwardly avoided it, and explained the source of Liu Qingxin's previous words to cover up his faux pas.

"Han Yu's "Ma Said"."

For people from famous families, controlling their emotions and keeping their moods invisible, can be regarded as the foundation of their lives.

Mu Rui took a deep breath, and when he looked up again, he naturally blushed on his face, and reappeared as a humble gentleman.

"I still think that Mu Gongzi's appearance of showing his nature just now is more amiable."

Liu sneered, slowly walked to the table, and sat down face to face with Mu Rui.

She refers to herself as "I", not by an honorific name.

According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, she has been married by the emperor, although she has not yet visited the hall with Ling Jun, but she is already a real princess.

And now, she is talking to Mu Rui as a "personal", and there are usually only two possibilities.

wants to interact with Mu Rui on an "equal footing".

Or, it has been instructed by Ling Jun.

"Well, when the princess said this, it made Mu Rui a little embarrassed."

"I don't know...... Lu Bo, Pu, holding a lance, playing horses, dice play, dominoes, princess, which one is better? ”

Liu Qingxin's line of work is worth a lot of money.

And now, De Shuixuan, who is not open to customers, except for her, the quasi-princess, who else wears such a walking "gold ingot"?

Mu Rui is a person who is very good at observing words and feelings, although in the past, because of ...... I lost a few polite points, but now, calm down, how can I still make the same mistake?

took half a step forward and bowed respectfully, and when Mu Rui sat back at the table, he was already generously restrained, and resumed his previous smile, which was a little presumptuous.

Since Liu Qingxin has made it clear that he should not be polite, why should he be pretentious and annoy her?

"The third master said, let me come to you to talk about Go."

Mu Rui doesn't know how to play Go.

Ling Jun told Liu Qingxin about this early in the morning.

A few days ago, they took care of themselves and got the secret of the Qianguo Mansion, and when Ling Jun sent it to Mu Rui, it was to invite him to play chess as an excuse to give him a reminder.

Therefore, at this time, Liu Qingxin told him that he was entrusted by Ling Jun to come to him to "talk about Go", how could Mu Rui not understand what she was going to say?

"The third master's injury, is it okay?"

Ling Jun was "seriously injured" in the hunting, and now everyone knows about the famous Yanjing family.

Although, when Mu Rui was in the mountains just now, he had learned that this matter was false from his cronies who had placed him beside Mu Dechun, but some things, even if he knew that they were fake, he had to treat them as if they were true, in case there was an omission in the plan and it was too late to deal with it.

"I'm afraid I'll have to recuperate for a few days before I can get off the bed."

"Fortunately, it was his left arm that was injured, so he didn't delay playing chess, otherwise, he would have been in a hurry."

Knowing what Mu Rui wanted to ask, Liu Qingxin didn't rub shoulders with him and wasted his time.

only hooked her lips and smiled, and told Mu Rui that she had discussed with Ling Jun the reply she had discussed, "I just don't know, after today's incident, those cats and dogs jumping up and down still dare to be as rampant as in the past?" ”

"If there is no gift from the princess, they may still have some scruples and hesitations."

"The princess prepared a gift for Rui, presumably, she is also well versed in the truth that dogs will jump off the wall when they are in a hurry, and at this time, she asked Rui about the habits of cats and dogs, is it a little inappropriate?"

As he spoke, Mu Rui took out six dice from the leather pocket on his waist, shook them in his palm a few times, threw them on the table in front of the two, and then, staring at the dice rolling all over the table, he laughed out loud.

The dice rolled around the table a few times before stopping.

Six sixes.

Pick up.

Shake again.

Throw it again.

Or six six.

Pick it up again, shake it, throw it away, seven or eight times in a row......

It seems that these six dice can only shake out six sixes.

"These six of Young Master Mu's dice, filled with mercury, look interesting, I don't know, where did the craftsman find made it?"

Mercury-filled dice.

This kind of "kitKat" thing, in the eyes of the "ancients", is difficult to figure out and understand, but for a "future person" like Liu Qingxin, it is not rare at all.

She lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, and turned a deaf ear to Mu Rui's rhetorical question, but her attitude was clear, "Who said that he was cold and arrogant, but he turned his face and heart, and he was dyed in the house, and he was thrown to the present day for several years." ”

"I don't know, in a few days, Young Master Mu's dice will be added by two more?"

The dice that ordinary people play with is made of wood.

There are a few children of rich families who will also use animal bones or ivory.

But the six dice that Mu Rui pinched in his hands all day long, and used to throw and play, were made of human bones, and there were new and old.

"If all goes well, there should be three more."

"Treat relatives wisely, treat everyone equally, and never because of the concubine, there is a difference between men and women."

It is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish between human bones and animal bones.

Therefore, listening to Liu Qingxin laughing and saying that his dice were made of human bones, Mu Rui's eyes darkened slightly.

can know that it is human bones, and still keep her face unchanged, this woman is probably far more unpredictable than he expected.

Do you continue to try, or do you just stop there?

"Young Master Mu is kind after all."

"Take only a small piece of their bones so that they cannot bury their whole bodies, and forgive them for their former wickedness."

At first, Liu Qingxin just saw that these dice were made of human bones, and it was not accurate where Mu Rui came from.

Now, hearing Mu Rui admit that she obtained it from her relatives, how could she not understand how she should deal with it?

There is no shortage of wicked people in this world.

And to convince a wicked person, the best way is always to make him feel that he is worse than him.

"What does the princess mean, is there a more appropriate way?"

Liu Qingxin's words, there is no doubt, attracted Mu Rui's attention.

He scooped up all the dice, narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, looking at Liu Qingxin, who was only a table away from him.

Interesting.

He is over the age of weak crown, and for the first time in his life, he has such an evaluation of a woman.

"Taking people's bones will at most make them lacking in the next life, but they should be reincarnated, and they must always be reincarnated."

"And I, on the other hand, are not so kind."

"I like to make dried corpses of people and store them in the cellar, and when I am in a good mood, I go to see them, and when I am in a bad mood, I whip them up, and if I don't like them, I burn their bodies to ashes, put them in a glass hourglass, and play with them."

"Well, in short, you can't give them a chance to be reincarnated."

Liu Qingxin said as he opened the purse on his waist and put a glass hourglass in front of him, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he told Mu Rui that he had killed his "bad taste".

In fact, the glass hourglass she placed on the table did not contain anyone's ashes.

The reason why she bought it from a merchant from the Western Regions to play with it was simply because it could shine in the sunlight, emit colorful light, look good, and be used for timekeeping.

"This little thing is exquisitely made."

Through the colored glass, Mu Rui couldn't tell whether it was sand or ashes inside.

"It's called...... Hourglass? ”

Squinting his eyes and admiring it carefully, Liu Qingxin put the hourglass on the table, embarrassed to reach out and touch Mu Rui, who was studying, raised his head with great interest, and looked at Liu Qingxin, the owner of the hourglass, "Is it from the Western Regions?" Why, is it called that? ”

"You can see that the stuff in here will keep leaking down."

"And in the Western Regions, people put sand in it."

Liu Qingxin said as he picked up the hourglass and flipped it over, so that the sand that had just "flowed" to one side "flowed" back to the other side, and then, unhurriedly, explained to "Mu Rui", "I counted, this half of the ashes are from full to no, just a quarter of an hour, and the killer with sharp hands and feet is enough to peel a human skin." ”

Regarding the matter of skinning people, although Liu Qingxin has not seen it in person, he has heard Yu Yan mention it during small talk.

She clearly remembered that at that time, Yu Yan told her with pride on her face that her knife skills were not inferior to the dust, and it only took a quarter of an hour to completely peel off a human skin.

"The princess's trick does sound much more interesting than just making a dice."

After staring at the glass hourglass for a long time, Mu Rui finally swallowed his saliva lightly, and nodded solemnly at Liu who was sitting opposite him.

Skinning, whipping corpses, ashes as hourglasses.

Tsk, this woman is really interesting, if not, she has been given a marriage, and she is about to marry Ling Jun as a concubine, he Mu Rui, he will do whatever it takes, begging to marry her and go back to the Qianguo Mansion!

With such an interesting woman to accompany you for the rest of your life, how boring should it be?

"There are so many interesting things in my place!"

Hooking his lips and smiling lightly, Liu lightly stood up from the stool, turned his head, and looked at Lixia, who was standing at the door from beginning to end, without saying a word.

"Don't say it, I forgot to ask you, Lixia, over there in the mansion, have you bought back the two houses that delayed the third master to repair the cellar for me?"

"In a few days, those collections of mine should be transported, if there is no suitable place to place them, it will be a pity!"

"Back to the princess, the housekeeper has contacted the owners of the two houses, but the owners of the two houses, one of whom was privately taught and received by others, was sent to the mountain by his family, and the other refused to make a move, relying on the power of the family."

Listening to Liu Qingxin's "inquiry" with himself, Lixia hurriedly took half a step forward, saluted her, and answered her "question" with a respectful attitude, "The third master said, let the princess be calm and don't be impatient, if the two families really can't discuss it, just find a good time when the moon is dark and the wind is high, and a fire will burn them down with their houses, free up the land, and build a new one for you." ”
