Chapter 558: The Last Days
Mu Jiu was a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything, after all, this is an internal matter of the royal family, Emperor Xia is confused but has great power, who can say anything.
However, it is an ironclad thing for Xia Qingxuan to offend the Ministry of Rites, and it is not surprising that if she continues to be so willful, she will offend everyone again.
Such a person will not have the last laugh, but he is like a-stirring stick, disgusting.
An Kang came and made sure that the disciple was not harmed, but was just knocked unconscious, Mu Jiu sent some medicine and silver, as well as some food, so that An Kang could comfort the disciple well.
Xia Qingxuan's bad behavior is irregular, she can play if she wants to, and if she doesn't want to play, she will accompany Emperor Xia and the queen all day long, like the most obedient child.
She stopped, Mu Jiu was also comfortable, and treated Emperor Xia Fang step by step, at two o'clock every day, the only thing that changed was that the place of rest was moved from the Heart Cultivation Hall to the Tai Hospital.
β¦β¦
On the northwest border, the wind is cold.
Lin Changsheng took off the letter on the feet of the hot sun, unfolded it and read it carefully, his eyebrows were as thick as a distant mountain and wrinkled inaudibly, and after a long time, he put the letter on the fire and burned it.
The Four Princesses of Fuxing? The head of the hospital?
"Ming Yi, pass the order down, and storm Lianshan City in three days!"
Ming Yi was a little puzzled, "Master, didn't you decide ten days later?" β
"What day will it be in three days?"
Ming Yiqing showed a smile, "Obey!" β
Lin Changsheng looked at the sky in the distance, which was the direction of Jiu'er......
β¦
The weather was unusually cold, and the snow closed the doors, but it still couldn't stop people's enthusiasm, and families were busy sweeping away the snow in front of their doors, pasting couplets, and preparing for the New Year.
Mu Jiu came back from the Tai Hospital, and everything was ready at home.
This is the first New Year since I met Lin Changsheng, sitting on the chair, Mu Jiu looked at the busy figures of Li Xiaotao and Aunt Lin and others.
"Jiu'er, have you written a letter to Changsheng? He wants to eat something, can we let the sun pass over a little? β
Mu Jiu felt that Li Xiaotao was a little naΓ―ve, it was okay to let the sun bring letters, bring food? I'm afraid that if I don't get to Lin Changsheng, it will eat it by itself.
Besides, he can't bring a lot either.
"Mother, don't worry about it, when he comes back, what do you want to eat, can you just make him another one?"
Mu Jiu leaned on the chair, gently rubbed her belly, felt her touch, and the baby kicked her.
"Little one, you can't be so naughty, be careful that your dad comes back and beats you." Mu Jiu said casually.
As if the baby understood, he gave her another kick to express his dissatisfaction.
Mu Jiu chuckled, "Do you miss your father?" β
Li Xiaotao glanced at Mu Jiu secretly, and lowered her head to do things again.
It was Mu Hongli who came over from outside, took off his coat, and walked to Mu Jiu's side, "Sister, it's so cold outside, the carriage can't go, I'll send you to the palace in the future." β
"It's okay, I've already contacted the sedan chair." Mu Jiu glanced at Mu Hongli suspiciously, this small body.
Feeling Mu Jiu's suspicion, Mu Hongli patted his shoulder, "Sister, don't look at me as thin in my clothes, but in fact, I have muscles, and it's not a problem to hold you and my little nephew." β
Mu Jiu was amused by him, "Okay, you're not thin, but there is a distance from here to the palace, it's okay, the emperor won't need to take medicine in a few days, it's okay to last a few days." β
Aunt Lin interjected, "I don't know why this year, the snow is so big, I've been in the capital for so many years, and I've never seen such a big snow!" β
Mu Hongli said, "I've grown so big, and it's the first time I've seen such a big snow, it's fun!" β
Mu Jiu: "......"
is still a child, a child who talks about marrying a daughter-in-law all day long!
Li Xiaotao began to worry, "We have so much snow here, and we are born in the northwest, but we are afraid that the snow will be bigger, and I don't know if they have enough food." β
It's okay not to say it, Mu Jiu's heart is raised, although Lin Changsheng tells her every time he writes that everything is fine, but on the battlefield, except for winning the battle, how can there be any good things?
Mu Hongli gave Li Xiaotao a look: Don't say it!
Li Xiaotao realized that her emotions had affected Mu Jiu, and hurriedly said, "Changsheng is a capable person, no matter how bad the environment is, he can win the battle, maybe he has finished the battle and is preparing to come back." β
Speaking of Lin Changsheng, Aunt Lin has a bunch of good things that can't be praised, but there are endless topics between the two women.
Mu Jiu just listened quietly, listening to Li Xiaotao and Aunt Lin competing like a game to praise Lin Changsheng, and listening to Aunt Lin tell Li Xiaotao all kinds of interesting things about the capital, his mind had already flown to the northwest frontier.
The next day was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the strange situation now reminded Mu Jiu of the terrible Chinese New Year's Eve in Mujia Village.
The people of the second prince have been wandering around, and there are always some unknown people "passing by" back and forth.
Being watched has long been the norm, habit is one thing, but prevention is another.
The snow is too big, and the people of Ankang can't stay outside all the time, and with one less line of defense, it will be easier for the people of the second prince to do it.
The poison array arranged on the roof is covered with heavy snow, and if it is rearranged, it is likely that there will be another heavy snow at night, and the poison will be wasted in vain.
Mu Jiu thought about it, Mu Hongli saw the clue, and at this moment, there was movement outside the door.
Lin Shifu walked in in with a snowstorm, "Jiu'er! Daddy is back! β
Li Xiaotao was very happy, "In-laws? You're back? β
In her consciousness, it is a bad thing to live in the house of her daughter who is married.
Lin 15 nodded, "Little peach girl, thank you for your hard work!" β
"Outside, Jiu'er is my daughter, just make a little food, what's not hard."
Mu Hongli hurriedly poured Lin Shifu a cup of hot tea, "Master, sit here, please drink tea!" β
Lin Shifu gave Mu Hongli a knife with his backhand, and he was ruthless.
Mu Hongli is nimble and short, and then a spin back kick.
Lin 15 Taiji tried to catch Mu Hongli's foot, but Mu Hongli moved quickly and dodged.
A sneak attack failed, and Lin Shifu hit a series of palms in a row, beckoning to Mu Hongli's face to greet him.
Mu Jiu simply dragged the chair to the corner without looking at the master and apprentice.
As a result, Mu Hongli's shoes fell in front of Li Xiaotao, and he almost fell into the New Year's flowers they prepared, and the hot tea was also sprinkled, and the ground was in a mess.
"Mu Hongli!" Li Xiaotao rarely shouted loudly, and scolded Mu Hongli and said, "What do you want to do!" β
The culprit, Lin Shi, touched his nose and didn't dare to speak.
Mu Hongli betrayed his master very much, "Mother, you can't blame me, it's the master who has to pull me to practice." β
Li Xiaotao couldn't talk about Lin Shifu, so he put all the responsibility on Mu Hongli, "Your master should pull you to practice, but if you don't fight, you will leave your shoes in the food, that is, you haven't practiced kung fu at home, go outside, and continue to practice." β
Lin Wufu looked embarrassed and took the lead in walking out, "Manulife, Master will take you outside to practice." β
"Okay." Mu Hongli innocently picked up his shoes and put them on, and made a grimace at Lin Fifteen.
The two of them went outside the yard, Lin Shifu and Mu Hongli moved seriously, and hit the roof from the yard, causing the snow on the roof to collapse one after another, and the yard that was finally swept was all covered with snow by the two.
Li Xiaotao punished Mu Hongli for clearing the snow again, Lin Shifu finally had a little conscience, and the master and apprentice were busy for a while.
One night, heavy snow sealed the door again.
There was no one to clear the snow early in the morning, but Mu Jiu needed to enter the palace early and boil out the medicinal juice that Emperor Xia needed to drink.
The invited palanquin man hadn't come yet, Mu Jiu looked at the thick snow and was at a loss.
Xiaomi, Zero One and Zero Five whispered.
"I'll hold the master, you two pay attention."
"You can only hold it halfway." Zero One hit the nail on the head, "I've found a pair of burdens with Zero Five and the two of them, and carry the master away." β
Xiaomi shook his head, "The burden is too shaky, and now the master's belly is so big, it's not safe." β
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, I think it's good for the master to live in the palace at night, anyway, it's only for a few days."
"No, only I can enter the palace, you haven't seen how nervous the fourth princess is, in case she makes some kind of moth, we will regret it."
This doesn't work, that doesn't work, Zero Yi was so suffocated that his face turned red, "The three of us each hugged a section of the road and carried the master over." β
Xiaomi was embarrassed again, "Men and women don't kiss, be careful that the boss cuts you back." β
Mu Hongli suddenly appeared behind several people, "I'm coming, I'm my sister's younger brother, I'll hold her all the way, Sister Xiaomi will hold her all the way, it's my turn." β
Then he walked to Mu Jiu's side, without saying anything, picked up Mu Jiu and left.
"Manulife!"
Mu Jiu was startled, "You let me down!" β
"Sister, will you do light work?"
Mu Jiu was silent.
"Sister, look, the snow is as high as your belly, aren't you afraid of freezing my little nephew?"
Mu Jiu's eyes lit up, when, Mu Hongli's light skills were so handsome, the surrounding scenery was rapidly retreating, Mu Hongli held her and stepped lightly on the snow, leaving only shallow footprints.
Millet and the others followed, also leaving only shallow footprints on the snow, and then looking in the distance, several ordinary residents were groping in the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the snow was waist-high.
Mu Hongli did not let Xiaomi take over, but carried Mu Jiu directly to the gate of the palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace happened to be clearing the snow.
Xiaomi helped Mu Jiu to the imperial pharmacy, and after grabbing the medicine, he hurried to the small kitchen of the Yangxin Palace, fried the medicinal juice, and then went to see Emperor Xia Fang.
Emperor Xia Dong's face was ruddy, he looked like a healthy person, and his spirit was very good, and he even joked with Mu Jiu, "I thought I was going to send someone to pick you up." β
"The emperor can send someone to pick it up early tomorrow." Mu Jiu handed the medicine to Emperor Xia Fang.
"Mu Jiu, don't you have to inch in!" Emperor Xia said this, but there was still no past gloom on his face, he was cured, and his mood improved, and it was pleasing to everyone, especially Mu Jiu!
"Your Majesty, the courtiers are telling the truth, there are only a few days of treatment left, don't look at you are still almost better, these days don't seem important, but they are very important."
