Chapter 27: Almost Looked Through
According to the plan of the day, Mu Lingkong and Meng Ruyue should go to the hot spring in the evening, before going out, Meng Ruyue's face suddenly changed, she covered her stomach and rushed to the clean room, and after a while she came out crying with a sad face, "I'm coming to Kwai Shui, I can't soak in the hot spring!"
"Then I'll go alone!"
"Huh? You're all right! ”
Mu Lingkong shrugged, "Isn't there still winter snow?" She's with me! ”
Under her leadership, she walked through the sheep intestine path and arrived at a forest, and before she saw the hot spring, she first saw three or four maids guarding the edge of the forest, and when she saw her, she did not stop her, and respectfully let it aside.
Not a few steps is a slightly short row of flowers and trees, neatly arranged, you can see the traces of artificiality, walk a few more steps, fast to the place close to the mountain wall, only to see a buobling hot spring, surrounded by a pool of three or four zhang long, there are a few natural stones in the pool, become a place to rest and rest, and the other side of the pool is a little shorter than the other sides, the spring water flows out along this side. It turned out to be a natural pool of living water.
At this time, there were already three young ladies in the pool soaking in the hot springs here, and when they saw Mu Lingkong, they didn't see it, and continued to talk about themselves, laughing as before.
Under the service of Dongxue, Mu Lingkong took off his coat and went into the water with only a bandeau and a pair of light pants. The three young ladies occupied the other side of the pool from a distance, and Mu Ling lay on this side freely, ignoring each other.
It didn't take long for a light footstep to come, and Mu Lingkong lazily looked up and saw that it was Song Lanzhi who was also here.
She was not much surprised to see Mu Lingkong, greeted her with a smile, took off her outer robe, got into the water, and chatted warmly with a few young ladies on the other side of the pool.
Mu Lingkong closed her eyes, ready to take a nap and wait for Dongxue to call her.
It may be that the hot spring is too comfortable to soak in, and the temperature is too suitable, so she actually fell asleep. When she woke up again, she heard footsteps again.
She opened her eyes lazily, thinking that someone else was coming, but when she heard it, she realized that something was wrong.
Footsteps don't sound right! The footsteps of the women are mostly light, but the footsteps at this time are a little heavy, it is a group of men, and it is very close, as long as you pass through the flower tree to the pool!
She didn't have time to think about how they got in when there was Dongxue guarding the door, and she didn't have time to think about why she was the only one left now, so she slowly sank to the bottom of the pool with a fierce stab, ready to dive to the other side of the boulder to hide.
The people who came in didn't talk to each other, and they didn't know who they were. When Mu Lingkong was slowly holding his breath, a person suddenly broke the silence with a voice, "You guys go out first!" ”
Mu Lingkong was stunned when he heard this voice, it was actually His Royal Highness the Prince!
Sheng Yuxi, who came in after Feng Mingzhen, was the first to stop, he glanced at the water waves in the pool that were still trembling, with a thoughtful look on his face, and then turned around as he said. When everyone saw that he had turned away, they did not dare to linger long, although their minds were full of doubts.
Feng Mingzhen glanced around the pool, and finally fixed his gaze on a low branch not far away, on which hung a light yellow shirt fluttering in the wind.
He raised his eyebrows, his gaze returning to the calm waters of the pool. After a moment, he spoke in a deep voice, "Who's there?" ”
Mu Lingkong bit his lower lip, knowing that he had discovered an abnormality, so he poked out half of his head from behind the boulder, and his face showed a rare bit of embarrassment, "Your Highness, it's me!" ”
Feng Mingzhen actually guessed that it was her as soon as she saw the clothes, so she let other people out, but she still asked knowingly, "Why are you here?" There's no one outside yet! ”
After Mu Lingkong came in, Dongxue went out to stay outside the forest like other maids, and there was no one outside at the moment, so something must have happened. She thought for a moment, raised a snow-white arm, and pointed to the clothes on the low branches in the distance, "Can Your Highness help me deliver the clothes first?" At the moment, half of her body sank into the water, and the other half of her shoulders and neck exposed to the water were as white as jade, and under the steaming of the spring water, she had a pink luster, and a few strands of wet hair were winding on her chest, her skin was as white as snow, and her black hair was charming.
After only a few more glances, Feng Mingzhen felt a little dry mouth, and almost turned his head in a hurry to look at the clothes on the branches. It took him a long time before he stepped forward, took off the branch's garment, and dragged it in his hand.
The clothes in his hand are as yellow as the sprouts of a branch, light and thin as an ethereal cloud, and there are a few wisps of fragrance on it, which is the fragrance on Mu Lingkong's body.
Thinking of the *** person in the pool, Feng Mingzhen's gaze unconsciously wanted to drift over, but he finally held back. Putting his clothes on a clean boulder, he turned around and walked out of the forest, "I'll go and guard outside, you quickly change your clothes and come out."
Mu Lingkong saw that he was far away, so he slowly swam to the edge of the boulder, put on a clean bandeau trousers, and put on a coat very quickly.
Feng Mingzhen didn't actually go far, he had always had good ears, and he could hear the sound of clothes behind him from a distance. He pinched his fingers and took a few more steps outside uncomfortably.
After a while, I heard a sound of soft footsteps behind me, and Mu Lingkong's uncomfortable voice sounded, "Your Highness, I'm dressed!" ”
Feng Mingzhen turned his head at this time, looked her up and down, and nodded. Keep walking outside.
There was no one outside the woods now, and it seemed that he had been taken away by Sheng Yuxi.
Mu Lingkong breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise he really didn't know how to face a large number of men outside the woods.
In a hurry just now, she only put on her clothes, and her hair was still wet on her shoulders, and after a while, she soaked the clothes behind her back. She didn't care about herself, Feng Mingzhen looked at it several times, and finally took out a plain white handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to her, pointing to her back, "You can keep it a little bit, it's a little cool at night, and it's not good to catch a cold!" ”
Mu Lingkong took it in a daze, dragged it in his hand for a while, then pulled his hair to the side of his neck and put the handkerchief behind his back.
Feng Mingzhen's gaze inadvertently swept over the exposed side of her neck, her throat tightened, and the feeling of hot air surging up came again! He coughed uncomfortably and looked away.
Mu Lingkong put on a handkerchief, put his hair back again, and sincerely thanked Feng Mingzhen, "Thank you, Your Highness, for helping me again today!" ”
Feng Mingzhen has returned to normal at this time, "There are no men and women in the hot springs here, usually when they are used, they will arrange people to guard them in the forest, and when we came just now, there was no one in the forest to guard them, so we would rush in." But I don't think you're such a reckless person, are you being calculated? ”
Mu Lingkong didn't have the habit of discussing right and wrong behind her back, and she wasn't sure who did it, so she only said that she was careless.
Feng Mingzhen didn't say much, and silently followed her forward, and she was about to walk to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she didn't see Feng Mingzhen say goodbye, Mu Lingkong was thinking about whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was preparing to send her to the other courtyard and then leave? At a glance, she saw the three-story octagonal building not far away, and suddenly reacted, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and her are neighbors!
