Chapter 10: The Heartflower

When he returned to the palace, Mu Chen stayed in the room and did not come out.

Zimeng was in the courtyard, pruning the flowers and plants.

A few handmaidens blessed her, whispered "Sister Lufu", and continued to do her own thing.

When she returned home, Green Fu took a closer look, and as she expected, they had quickly disposed of Jo'er's body.

The palace returned to its former calm, and it was as if Qiao'er's death had never happened. Like a pebble thrown into a lake, it made small waves, but almost quickly, it regained its calm.

Everyone is in their own place, each performing their own duties, and it is no different from the past.

Even if Qiao'er's body has been disposed of, Green Fu doesn't care, because she has now found a corpse like Qiao'er.

Although she was not sure that Zhao Yulian also had the same fragrance as Qiao Er, her intuition convinced her that the two corpses must be related.

And just from the mouths of the people, Lu Fu also learned that there are more than one or two corpses that died suddenly like this.

If it is really because of poisoning, then this is someone behind the poison and serial killing. And the murderer will not stop so quickly.

Now Lu Fu is not in a hurry, and she no longer cares about how Qiao'er's body is disposed of.

Because after digging deeper, she cared about the cause of Qiao'er's death, but she actually cared about whether the strange smell was poisonous or something else. If it is really poisonous, what is it?

Slowly getting acquainted with these poisons, maybe her memories will soon be able to reorganize and recall all kinds of things in the past.

Zimeng raised her eyes and saw that Lu Fu was back, put down the scissors in her hand, and beckoned to her: "Sister Lu Fu, come here." ”

Zimeng smiled and groaned, and there was no dissatisfaction on her beautiful face.

She also thought that she had joined in the fun today, which would make Zimeng unhappy.

It seems that she is stingy.

Zimeng moved her body, let Lu Fu stand over, pinched a flower in front of her, and asked, "Is this flower still beautiful?" ”

Rare dark flower stems with deep purple petals.

Green Fu squinted her eyes and subconsciously shook her nose to sniff its flowers.

Tasteless.

"Unique." Midori relaxes her pupils and returns to her scattered appearance, commenting nonchalantly on the plant.

She has no interest in studying plants that have no taste of their own.

Zimeng looked at her embarrassedly, then glanced at the flower along her line of sight, and reminded, "Sister Lufu, what I asked was the one in my hand." ”

The pink petals, stained with a few drops of crystal clear water, look quite delicate. Just looking at it from a distance, it seems that you can smell a wisp of fragrance. Haunting and lingering.

Lu Fu was stunned for a moment, and saw that what Zimeng was holding in her hand was indeed a bright pink flower, not a dark purple. At the other end of the wooden shelf was the one she had just seen.

Thinking about corpses and poisonous smells made her dazzled.

Lu Fu was dumbfounded, lowered her eyelids slightly, and said, "It's also pretty good." ”

The little face was slightly reddened and a little embarrassed.

Perhaps because she felt that this answer was too perfunctory and inappropriate, Lu Fu pretended to be quite interested, so as not to spoil Zimeng's fun, and asked again: "What kind of flower is this?" ”

The embarrassment of Lufu's youngest daughter's family fell into Zimeng's eyes, knowing that she was catering to herself, so Zimeng also smiled easily, making her less restrained.

"This flower was once offered by Nanzhao, and it is called the heart flower, and it is also the heart butterfly." Zimeng said slowly, there was some sadness in his eyes, and suddenly he was shining again, "This flower only blooms two flowers in its life, and it is born and blooms, and the petals are shaped like butterfly wings. When the flowers bloom, they are like double butterflies, dancing, so they are called 'knotted butterflies'. There's only one left. I thought that this flower would wither like this, but I never thought that it would be miraculously resurrected a few days ago, and today it just bloomed. ”

Zimeng's words made Lu Fu really interested in this flower. Leaned over and sniffed a few sips, there was really a strong sweet fragrance, a few more sips, a little greasy, but it made people greedy and reluctant to leave.

Like, the taste of lovers.

"This flower belongs to Nanzhao?" Lufu asked curiously.

Zimeng bowed slightly.

"This flower is very rare, before the Celestial Empire sent troops to Nanzhao, there was a rift in the relationship between the two countries. The Southern Emperor was afraid of the power of the Celestial Empire and was afraid that the emperor would order troops to fight, so he wanted to repair the relationship between the two countries and specially dedicated this strange flower. "At that time, the flowers were still blooming.

Lu Fu has no impression of Nanzhao, and what she remembers is only those poisonous plants. Such a simple and pleasing fragrant nose flower, she really knows very little.

"Then how can this flower be in the palace?" If it is a special gift from the Southern Emperor, it should be in the palace. What's more, this flower is scarce, and it is so beautiful and fragrant, coupled with the meaning of "knotting", the concubines in the harem should also be in love.

How could Xiahou Ziyuan be willing to give it to Mu Chen.

And looking at the relationship between Xiahou Ziyuan and Mu Chen, it is not so good.

Zimeng pursed her lips, and her face was plated with a luster of joy.

She said: "The prince is a genius, experienced in a hundred battles, won many battles, and is regarded as the god of war by the people of the Celestial Empire. If the emperor wants to send troops to Nanzhao, he must be indispensable. And in that war with Nanzhao, the prince repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and the emperor rewarded this flower. ”

That's how it was.

But looking at Mu Chen's appearance, he doesn't look like a person who loves flowers. Zimeng is very protective and takes care of it so well.

It is estimated that Zimeng has a different kind of emotion for this flower.

Lu Fu saw Zimeng's appearance in her eyes, and found that in her tone, it was difficult to hide her admiration for Mu Chen. She chuckled unconsciously, confirming her suspicions even more.

Zimeng has affection for Mu Chen.

However, this flower is just average, and it is not worth thinking about. Green Fu secretly set its place. She still likes aggressive things, such as hooknoses.

……

At night, Lu Fu suddenly offered to serve Mu Chen to change clothes tonight.

When she told Zimeng, Lu Fu was a little weak-hearted, after all, she didn't want to prevent Zimeng from getting close to her sweetheart. However, this matter is very important to Green Leaf.

Zimeng didn't care, handed over the clothes to Lufu, and she planned to leave. Unexpectedly, Lu Fu suddenly changed her previous indifferent attitude and asked about Mu Chen's preferences. Zimeng was a little surprised, but she still confessed again.

Lu Fu secretly remembered, took the clothes, and went to Mu Chen's wing.

This time, Lu Fu went in alone without waiting for Mu Chen to speak.

It's still the crimson screen that catches your eye first.

Green Fu glanced at it, didn't stay long, and went straight over and into the back room.

"Here we are." A deep, languid male voice.

She walked very lightly, and the sound of opening and closing the door was extremely low, barely making any movement.

But Mu Chen was so keen, just by his breath, he could quickly sense that a second person appeared in the room.

Lu Fu took a deep breath, walked over, and blessed Mu Chen's tall and slender back: "Lord Wang, it's time to change clothes." ”
