Chapter 230: The higher you climb, the worse you fall

Sang Muge didn't speak after he went back, and kept looking out the window in confusion.

Perhaps because of the rain, the bustling palace looked a little hazy, and some of it was hidden in the rain curtain.

There was a faint sound of footsteps in my ears, as if several people were walking towards where they were.

Sang Muge was in a trance, and a flower still stained with crystal raindrops appeared on the windowsill, and she thought she was hallucinating.

At the end of October in the Golden Country, there are few flowers blooming, how could it be!

Sang Muge picked up the flowers on the windowsill and exclaimed in a low voice: "It's true! ”

The maid didn't know why, and looked at her suspiciously: "Princess, what's wrong?" ”

"It's a flower!" Sang Muge smiled with his eyebrows, suddenly realized something, and ran to the door with the flower in his hand.

"Princess!"

The maid's voice sounded behind her, but Sanmuge turned a deaf ear.

She stood under the corridor and saw a tall back, holding a black umbrella, which was an unfamiliar back, but she unexpectedly felt good-looking.

"Thank you." Sang Muge shouted at his back, crisp and colorful.

The tall back paused, and then strode away again.

It's just that the owner of the back smiled silently in his heart, and he thought, this is really a lovely girl.

The maid looked at the flower in her hand and said, "I don't know who sent it." ”

Sang Muge looked at the flower, the emotion in her eyes was inexplicable, what she originally wanted was not to be a martial artist, nor was it a talent and appearance, but simply to ride a horse and pick flowers with her, and drink wine and barbecue by the river.

Suddenly, Sang Muge felt a sense of sadness in her heart, and she didn't know how long it took, the flower in her hand fell to the ground, and she didn't realize it.

The maid was stunned, and then she picked up the flower and quietly inserted it in the porcelain vase.

It's a pity that the flowering period of this flower is too short, and before going to bed, Sang Muge looked at the flower in the porcelain vase and said, "Why did it shrink like this?" ”

Anyway, I slept with the sound of the rain outside the window.

Surprisingly, Sang Muge woke up very early.

The rain seemed to have listened, and she heard someone whispering, "Hurry up, if you don't go again, the princess should wake up." ”

Sang Muge was shocked, thinking that he was an assassin, he picked up the scimitar hanging next to the bed and was about to rush out, and suddenly thought of the fourth brother's advice, don't be impulsive!

She gritted her teeth and crept to the door with her cutlasse in hand.

If it was an assassin, the fourth and fifth brothers were so close to her, it was impossible not to notice it, Sang Muge pursed his lips, and when he pushed the door open with his scabbard, he was stunned.

The rain had stopped, and it was only overnight that the open land under the porch was filled with countless bright red flowers.

When the man heard the movement, he looked up and saw her, and his expression suddenly froze.

Under the corridor, the lights were bright, and Sang Muge stood there holding a scimitar, the whole person was confused and simple.

She wore a pale bedgown with a series of red flowers embroidered at the hem of her skirt, giving the illusion that the next moment there would be bright flowers blooming.

"Princess" the man muttered unconsciously, his eyes still falling on her, "disturbed the princess's dream, and asked the princess to atone for her sins." ”

Sang Muge breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand holding the scimitar also loosened his strength, but his heart was tense.

His eyebrows were dark, and his deep and bright gaze seemed to have passed through the pure white and flawless snow-capped mountains, through the gurgling streams, and accurately fell on her.

"Who are you?" She approached step by step, and the closer she walked, the more dizzying his features became.

The man raised his head, his thin lips slightly hooked, "Under the Mu Chen." ”

"Are you listening to the fourth brother or the fifth brother?"

This question stopped the young man in front of him, and he hesitated for a long time before he said, "Listen." ”

Sang Muge finally couldn't help it, and laughed, "Look at you, it seems that you are the fifth brother's subordinate." ”

"Hmm." Mu Chen smiled.

In the Kingdom of Jin, who doesn't listen to the words of the Four Princes?

"Thank you." Sang Muge looked at him, his eyes were very good-looking, as if reflecting the stars in the sky, and like Lin Changtian, he had a pair of bright and deep eyes, which made her feel the urge to cry.

"If the princess likes it, it's fine." Mu Chen hooked the corner of his mouth and chuckled, "I just want to"

When the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back again, and said instead: "If the princess has something to do in the future, just give orders." ”

"Okay." Sang Muge smiled.

The man's clothes were soaked by the rain, and the corners of her clothes and hands were still stained with mud, which made her heart a little sour, and she still joked: "Don't worry about going back, I remember you, and I will say more good things about you at the fifth brother in the future." ”

"No, no, no." Mu Chen smiled hoarsely and hurriedly waved his hand, "The princess misunderstood, I just heard that the princess was sad to lose her beloved rabbit, and I hope the princess will feel better when she sees these flowers, and she has no other meaning." ”

Sang Muge's heart became more and more sour, and she nodded with a flickering eye, "You go back." ”

Mu Chen smiled and said goodbye, turned around and strode away.

Sang Muge looked at his back, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, there was a person who took advantage of her sleep and planted her favorite flower for her, just for the surprise of opening the door the next morning.

I don't even need to leave a name, I just want her to be happy.

Sang Muge stood outside the door, looking at the flowers blooming under the porch, and suddenly flowers bloomed somewhere in his heart.

If you talk about love, Sang Muge at that time was probably not in love with Mu Chen, at most he was moved, and there was a trace of like, coincidentally, he and the person in her heart had similar eyebrows and eyes.

Sang Muge sometimes went to Jin Yi and asked, "Fifth brother, do you know that flowers bloomed outside my room overnight?" ”

Jin Yi subconsciously responded: "Of course I know, because I planted it." ”

"Not really!" Sang Muge's eyes were shining, "I know who it is." ”

"That's what I commanded, too." Golden Wing is a matter of course.

"Fourth brother, don't you think he looks a bit like a person, especially his eyes." Sang Muge grinned at the corners of his mouth after speaking, and a small dimple on his cheek was faintly visible.

"Not really." Jin Yi said dryly.

Sang Muge stopped talking, and snorted dissatisfiedly for a long time: "Fifth brother, you are really boring, I am leaving, I will not play with you in the future." ”

After Sang Muge left, Jin Yi's subordinates reminded: "The princess feels like Mu Chen, I'm afraid she looks like Lin Changtian." ”

Jin Yi paused and motioned for him to continue.

The subordinate continued: "Mu Chen seems to pay special attention to the princess. ”

Jin Yi was silent for a moment and said: "Sang Muge has no friends in the palace since she was a child, and she is the only princess in the Jin Kingdom, if there is no big move, let her go." After a pause, Jin Yi said again, "Go and find out Mu Chen's background." ”

The subordinate nodded in response.

Jin Yi didn't pay much attention to it, when he went to the barracks to inspect, Mu Chen was training with the soldiers, and when he saw Jin Yi coming, a trace of surprise flashed on his face at first, and then turned flat and practiced wholeheartedly. Jin Yi squinted for a moment, then turned to inspect the next barracks.

After the drill was over, several officers came up to congratulate Mu Chen, laughing and asking him to invite him to drink, Mu Chen hurriedly smiled and responded, and someone who didn't understand what happened came over: "What's wrong, what's wrong, what's going on?" ”

"Just now, the fifth prince announced the appointment of Mu Chen, and he will be the chief general of the suppression of the alien races in the border." The officer was full of smiles, "We are strong and strong, and we have enough military salaries, and we are afraid of the group of children who are not in the climate at the border pass, this unknown military exploit, follow General Mu, eat and drink spicy food in the morning and evening." ”

An officer next to him suddenly snorted, and said in a weird manner: "If you want to say that this person is still handsome, you can be promoted if you go to the princess and come back, if you know this, what are our brothers still working desperately for, don't you just run to the princess a few more times!" ”

The noisy scene suddenly froze, and everyone's eyes fell on Mu Chen at once, and someone behind him whispered to remind Mu Chen: "The military department originally planned to let this general lead the army to deal with foreign affairs. ”

As a result, his dark horse came out of nowhere and snatched away the bright military exploits that originally belonged to him.

Mu Chen tightened the corners of his mouth, looked up at the general who spoke, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Several officers behind the general exchanged a look, and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on their faces, and one of them said: "You know what you mean in your heart, our general has been on the battlefield for seven or eight years, relying on real skills, never making crooked ways, you know how you got it." ”

Mu Chen gritted his teeth and listened to him quietly.

The other side was even more arrogant, sneered and continued: "What, is it a weak heart? ”

As soon as these words came out, it was obvious that he was going to find fault and fight, Mu Chen knew very well in his heart that he had risen too fast, and it was so fast that it had caused the rejection of these officers, and he was really outstanding because of his talent, but this time, he just went to meet Hongchou once at the recommendation of the five princes, and was appreciated by him, but it was misinterpreted by some people who knew that he planted flowers for Sangmuge.

Mu Chen looked at the other party silently, his eyes were bright and open, and the other party kept sneering and looking at him, I see what kind of ability you kid has, worthy of the position of the main general.

Mu Chen glanced at the officers around him expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice: "I am not bad at martial arts, and I understand military law, but I am younger and have been on the battlefield less often, but I dare to say that since the fifth prince has accepted my fate, he will definitely not look at the wrong person." ”

He turned his gaze back to the man opposite, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe that I can win the battle, I will prove it to you, but I still want to say to you, don't doubt the vision of the fifth prince, he will never look at the wrong person." ”

"How?!" The man sneered, "This battle can be won with your eyes closed, and winning this battle is nothing." ”

As soon as the words fell, Mu Chen pulled out the saber on his waist with a brush, and threw it fiercely to the ground at his feet, the tip of the knife was inserted into the soil, causing the handle to shake.

The man gritted his teeth, full of anger, and was about to step forward as soon as he drew his sword, but several officers behind him hurriedly held him down and shouted, "General, don't be impulsive. ”

One of them hurriedly said: "General, the four princes don't like to compete with their comrades the most, if they are known, they will not live up to the cultivation of the four princes and make the four princes disappointed." ”

At that time, even if they were not punished, they all felt that they had done something wrong, and they desperately hoped to atone for their crimes, and they could not lose the trust of the four princes.

If you don't mention Hongchou, sometimes you really can't press the scene, and when you mention his name, you really don't move the knife.

The man put the saber back into the scabbard, scolded a few words secretly, and then said to Mu Chen: "I don't have the same knowledge as you because of the face of the four princes, but I advise you, opportunistic and fast walking, if you don't have real skills, sooner or later you will be exposed, and when the time comes, the higher you climb, the worse you will fall." ”
