017. I've seen this prince
Luo Ge, who was handpicked by Muzi, immediately put away his smile, changed his smile to the most gentle smile and looked up and said, "The concubine is happy for the Queen Mother." ”
"Oh?" Hearing her answer, the Queen Mother opened her mouth first.
Looking at her with great interest, Luo Ge said: "The concubine is happy that the queen mother can have such a filial daughter-in-law." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Everyone present was looking forward to Luo Ge's answer. She was not in a hurry, but proudly changed her sitting posture and said slowly: "Princess Mu doesn't say that her home is in the Eastern Capital, Prince Mu promised her to go home on leave." Princess Chi prays for your peace in the Qingxin Zen Temple. In order to prepare medicinal herbs for you to prolong your life, Princess Steroid ventured into the mountains to collect medicines. They are all for the sake of the Queen Mother and cannot come. Although this Chinese New Year's Eve is about family reunion, they are for you. This is naturally more than usual, I don't care about pretending to have a meal with you in Chinese New Year's Eve, right? ”
Her words amused the Queen Mother, she smiled and narrowed, and said, "Mrs. Luo is right. Mrs. Lowe was right. ”
Luo Ge's words made the three princes standing opposite secretly thank him with gestures. Luo Ge just nodded slightly, and then ate the snacks brought by the harem maid as if he hadn't seen it.
Mu Ziqin, who saw all this in his eyes, couldn't help but be surprised. He saw Luo Ge's sharp teeth and sharp mouth again today when he was in the Fang prison. He had to admit that this woman was smart.
Because of Luo Ge's answer, the Queen Mother naturally talked about family life, and asked about the situation of the prince's family in the past year, the increase or decrease in the number of people.
After asking about the time of half a pillar of incense, there was an attendant outside the palace and said loudly: "Filial piety King Mu Ziheng has arrived." ”
Mu Ziheng?
Hearing this name, Luo Ge had a question in his heart. Because, she had never heard Mu Ziqin mention this person since she was a child. His appearance and penchant for fun are a mystery for Luo Ge.
Luo Ge quietly moved his position, slowly leaned his body in the direction of the palace gate, twisted his head and waited seriously for the appearance of King Xiao with a curious face.
When the third call of the chamberlain fell, he saw a man dressed in black walking quickly. Before she could even see her face clearly, she saw that the muscular and straight figure was already kneeling on the ground.
He lowered his head, put his hands above his head, and said in a deep and magnetic voice: "Erchen has seen the queen mother. ”
"Heng'er, hurry up." The Queen Mother smiled even brighter after seeing him, "Sit down beside the mourning family." ”
"Thank you, Mother."
He got up after thanking him, and Luo Ge could see her face clearly. When she saw this side face, she almost called out the name he had used - Black Brake.
Luo Ge never thought that when she was Xia Tianqing, there was a master of the rivers and lakes called Heisha who had been helping her, and that was the filial piety king of this Mu Jin Kingdom-Mu Ziheng.
Faced with that face that she had seen more than 10,000 times, she was speechless for a while, and she didn't know how to describe the feeling in her heart.
Different from Luo Ge's quietness, because of Mu Ziheng's arrival, everyone in the entire Heart Cultivation Hall became enthusiastic. Even Mu Yu, who had been sitting quietly beside her, became lively.
He jumped up and down towards Mu Ziheng, and opened his hand to hug him directly. When Mu Ziheng saw his small body, he hugged him directly in his arms.
Several princes who had been standing in the hall were also anxiously approaching the position of the queen mother at this time.
For a while, the excitement in this hall did not look like it came from the serious and rule-abiding Mujin royal family, but it looked like an ordinary family. The most favored son in the family has returned from afar, and the rest of the family is anxious about his situation. The happy sight even makes other people's eyes feel a little sour.
Listening to what you said in the palace, Mu Ziqin naturally didn't answer. After all, only when Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty years old every year, the whole family can have the opportunity to see Mu Ziheng.
As the controller of the spy agency of the entire Mu Jin Kingdom, Mu Ziheng was trained alone by the emperor of the previous dynasty since he was a child. Even the master who taught him was a master invited from the rivers and lakes. Every year he can only be reunited with his family when he is in Chinese New Year's Eve, and the whole family sits together to chat and have a meal. Other times, except for the king, only his subordinates or subjects on assignments could see him.
Of course, in order to ensure that he is not recognized when he goes out on missions, many times he wears a special mask or a human skin mask. So basically, only a few people in the palace have seen Mu Ziheng.
As for why Luo Ge met Mu Ziheng, it starts with a trip when Xia Tianqing was a teenager.
Xia Qingqing was six years old that year. It was her fourth year under Mrs. Yiyu, and it happened to be the day when Mu Ziqin returned to King Mujin's palace for the first time.
The weather was fine that day, and Mrs. Yi Yu happened to be invited to go to a nearby mountain villa to see a doctor. In order to facilitate travel, Mrs. Yi Yu left Luo Ge in the bamboo house.
Because Mrs. Yi Yu likes a quiet environment, she places her residence in the mountains, where the cicadas chirp and the stream flows. Such an environment naturally made Xia Tianqing have a lot of fun since he was a child.
After sending off the master in the morning, Xia Tianqing read a book alone in the bamboo hut. But after noon, she couldn't hold back. After all, she is a child, and her nature to play is still there, so she naturally closed the door and went to the mountains alone to "hang out".
The young Xia Tianqing was naturally not very familiar with the bad environment in the mountains, and after walking around for a while, he got lost in the jungle. Looking at the increasingly unfamiliar environment, Xia Tianqing felt frightened in her heart, she wanted to walk back to the bamboo house along the mountain road, but she couldn't find her way back.
After walking for two hours, Xia Tianqing couldn't find his way back. The sun was about to set. She could only find a spot to rest in a nearby place where the road could be seen.
Xia Tianqing patted her sore leg while looking around. Then stopped in the northeast direction. She noticed a large stone statue in the distance, which was very much the mark that Madame Yiyu had placed outside the bamboo house.
When she saw the boulder, she jumped for joy. The exhaustion on her body and the pain in her feet seemed to be carried away, and she strode forward. Seeing the boulder getting closer and closer, she quickened her pace, and finally the small cannon was raised.
But who knows, just as she was approaching the boulder, she suddenly fell into a hole.
The sudden feeling of falling made her wave her arms in a panic, and she tried to find something from her side to grab, but only held a hand of dead wood and weeds.
It didn't take long to fall, and her "ah" had already landed before it stopped.
The muffled sound of "bang" made Xia Tianqing's back hurt, and she burst into tears. She had always been in poor health, and she rested for a long time before slowly sitting up from the hole. At this time, only a ray of the sun shone at the entrance of the cave.
Xia Tianqing looked around, and she found that she was still on the wrong path. Now it's in a trap set by Orion at the bottom of the mountain. According to this hunting method, it should belong to the hunters of Su Qianguo.
The hunters of Su Qianguo are good at digging holes and trapping some animals that are not very lethal, and such animals do not have good bouncing ability. Therefore, Xia Tianqing is not in any danger to his life at the moment.
But! Since Su Qiangguo's hunters came to observe the hunting pit regularly, she didn't know how long it would take for her to be rescued.
"In that case, if you have come, you will be safe, and rest on the spot." Xia Tianqing comforted herself.
She got out of a relatively gentle position in the pit, spread all the dead wood and weeds she had brought with her when she fell, and then sat down slowly against the wall of the pothole, and then began to check herself for injuries.
After a brief examination, she found that she had abrasions of varying degrees on her ankles and arms. She took out the medicine bag she had brought with her and applied it to herself. But she never thought that because of the pain of the dressing, her slight pain and moaning attracted Mu Ziheng, who was passing by.
Footsteps from far and near came from above her head, and when she heard Xia Tianqing, she immediately shouted, "Is there anyone up there?" ”
Mu Ziheng, who was near the entrance of the cave, heard the sound and observed the situation in the pit in the gray sky.
"Is there anyone up there?" Xia Tianqing shouted again.
"Yes, may I ask why the girl is in this trap?" Mu Ziheng asked again and again and took out the fire fold from himself, he tried to reach out to illuminate the hole, but the effect was minimal.
"I just passed through here and fell into this trap. I wonder if a good Samaritan can save the little girl? ”
"Yes." As soon as Mu Ziheng finished speaking, he immediately plunged down the pit.
For an eight-year-old boy, the hole is still a little high. When Mu Ziheng landed, the sound was very loud.
"Did you fall into pain?" As a person who studies medicine, Xia Tianqing instinctively asked.
Regarding her concern, Mu Ziheng just responded to "nothing happened", and then took out the fire fold to illuminate it.
In the faint firelight, Mu Ziheng saw Xia Tianqing, whose face was covered with dust, dirty clothes, and a tattered skirt, sitting in a corner covered with dead wood and weeds.
Looking at her resolute expression at a young age, Mu Ziheng was a little shocked. Although he has been secretly cultivated in the palace of Mu Jin Kingdom since he was a child, he has never seen a little girl like Xia Tianqing, who is still in danger in this complex environment.
"Little girl, are you alright?" Mu Ziheng slowly approached her with a fire candle.
But who knows, his words aroused Xia Tianqing's dissatisfaction: "You are not that old!" Why do you call me a little girl like a teenager and an old man? ”
Her protest drew a burst of laughter. Seeing him smiling, she was so angry that she cursed.
"What are you laughing at! What's so funny! ”
"I'm laughing at you for being a little girl, not very old and quite old-tempered."
"What? Are you looking for trouble with me or something? Didn't you come to save me? ”
"Yes." Mu Ziheng nodded, "I heard you call for help, so I came down to save you." ”
"Come down?" Xia Tianqing was shocked by what he said, "Why are you just me when you come down?" Aren't you supposed to be on it? So I can find something to tie a rope into a rope for me, or find someone to save me! ”
Hearing her question, Mu Ziheng smiled without thanks, then stuffed the fire candle in his hand to her, and said, "Take it." I'll carry you up. ”
