055. Assassination
I was startled by him for a long time, and after a long time, he seemed to realize that he had just been a little too loud, and said in a soft voice: "Don't talk nonsense, how can it not be Jasper?" Then you tell me, who would it be if it wasn't Jasper? ”
I was a little speechless when asked by Mu Jingchi, and whispered: "I just said it casually, how can you take it seriously?" I glanced at Jasper again: "Of course I know she's Jasper, but it was just a joke." ”
Mu Jingchi heard me say this, although his face was not too relaxed, but it was not as serious as before, he knocked on my head and said, "You are not allowed to talk like this nonsense again in the future." ”
I said impatiently, "I know, I know." ”
Mu Jingchi chuckled.
When I saw that he had no sign of leaving, I asked, "Don't you want to deal with the business?" ”
He heard that I was a sign that I was going to drive him away, but he did not say anything, but pointed to the porridge brought by the maids and said, "I will watch you finish drinking before leaving." ”
He said so, and I could only pick up the porridge bowl from the table and eat the bowl as fast as I could.
Then, when there was not a drop left, I handed him the bowl and said, "That's all right, right?" ”
Mu Jingchi smiled and didn't speak, but didn't stay any longer, but let the maids continue to stare at me, and then he got up and walked out of my room and went to the study.
As soon as she left, Wang Zhizhi was silent for a while, and then said to me with a smile: "That, that Qingye, I'm also leaving." ”
I smiled slightly, and after she turned around and left, the maid in the house also left.
When the room was empty, I noticed that Jasper was still kneeling on the ground, and I said, "Get up." Jasper glanced at me and hesitated twice before slowly standing up.
Qing'er asked at this time, "Miss want to read a book for a while." ”
The potion on my arm has not been infused yet, which proves that I am now in a while and a half, and I can't get out of bed, I am a little unable to lift my energy, I shook my head and said, "It's okay, just lie down for a while." ”
Qing'er and Biyu were depressed when they saw me. He didn't dare to disturb me anymore, so he stayed aside, not daring to say anything more.
After that, I lay down on the bed and watched the potion above my head fall one drop at a time and two drops, and three drops fell from the top of my head.
Because of allergies, I lay in bed for about two or three days, and waited until the pimples on my face and the puffiness on my body had subsided before I dared to come out of the room.
I have been in bed for a long time, and my walking steps are a little vain, I was helped downstairs by Qing'er and them, the sun was just right outside, Mu Jingchi was sitting in the garden chatting with people, and Wang Zhizhi was beckoning tea on the side.
I stood there and watched for a while, and when Qing'er saw that I didn't move, she asked, "Miss, are you going to sit outside?" ”
I didn't speak, just watched in silence and said to Qing'er, "No, I'll just sit in the house for a while." ”
Qing'er wanted to say something, I didn't want to listen to it anymore, so I walked towards the end of the sofa, there was a newspaper on the table, I took a copy and flipped through it, and after a long time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, it was Wang Zhizhi's.
I didn't raise my eyes, but I heard Wang Zhizhi's voice full of surprise, she said, "Qingye, are you finally willing to go downstairs?" ”
Hearing her words, I looked up at her, then smiled and said, "Okay, so I sat downstairs for a while." ”
Wang Zhizhi said: "Your brother-in-law is talking to someone outside, do you want to go over?" ”
I said, "No, I'm just sitting for a while, and I'm going upstairs." ”
Wang Zhizhi didn't say anything more, and soon she went to the house to carry fruits, and went out of the living room to the garden.
I said, "Qing'er." ”
She heard my call and looked at me and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”
You say, "What it's like to marry someone you like." ”
Qing'er was silent for two seconds before she said, "It should be happiness." ”
I said, "What is happiness then?" ”
Qing'er also seems to be a little confused about this word.
I said, "Maybe like Wang Zhizhi, when her husband is talking about business, she will serve on one side, serve tea and greet guests, and occasionally the two of them will exchange glances in everyone's eyes, and they don't need to say much to each other and smile, it is happiness." ”
Qing'er said: "Sometimes a lot of happiness is just wishful thinking. ”
I laughed and said, "Really? But I think even if there is a surface, it should be enough, like some people don't even have a surface. ”
Qing'er didn't know why I said this, and she didn't continue to answer me.
I stroked my hand twice on my lower abdomen, and again did not speak, and then, after sitting for a short time, Wang Zhizhi was about to come in, and went upstairs first.
It wasn't until evening that I came out. Zhou's mother happened to enter my room with porridge, and I immediately asked her, "Where is Mu Jingchi?" ”
Zhou's mother said, "It's in the study." ”
I said, "I'll go see him." Then he walked towards Mu Jingchi's study.
He was dealing with things in the study, Wang Shuyi was also there, as soon as I came in, he looked at me, and I immediately said, "You talk, I'm bored and go around, when I don't exist." ”
Mu Jingchi ignored me, but beckoned to me and said, "Come here, let me see." ”
I glanced at him, and walked over, he took my hand, rolled up my sleeve, the rash on my skin was gone, and he was back to his usual white complexion, but he was not much surprised, but held my arm almost in the palm of his hand, and did not speak for a long time.
After a while, he asked me, "Have you eaten all the medicinal food that Zhou's mother sent you today?" ”
I smiled and said, "Eat." There is not a drop left, I like to eat the medicinal diet made by Zhou's mother. ”
He stroked my head and said, "Don't be picky eaters in the future, and have balanced nutrition." ”
Mu Jingchi has always liked to talk to me about this, and I said a little impatiently: "Oh, I know, you go and deal with your affairs, I'm just bored, so I will come to your study to walk around." ”
Mu Jingchi looked at me for a while, but didn't say anything, let me go and let me go around in his study alone, and then Wang Shuyi continued to talk to him about things, I didn't listen to a few sentences, so I flipped through the bookshelf casually, I don't know how long, when I turned out a photo album, I took out the album, it was full of my photos, when I was six or seven years old, when I was seven years old, when I was seven years old, when I was seven years old, there were all of them.
I flipped my fingers back and forth on the photo, and when I was engrossed, Mu Jingchi suddenly came behind me and asked, "What are you flipping?" ”
I heard his voice, and just wanted to turn back, but who knew that the next second my lips rubbed on her face, I was frightened, I didn't expect the distance between us to be so close suddenly, I quickly retreated a long way, but the action was too hasty, and I stumbled under my feet, and Mu Jingchi buckled my waist in time.
My head hit his chest, and the familiar smell of medicine quickly penetrated the tip of my nose, and I was about to push him away, but he grabbed my hand and said, "Why, you won't even let me touch it now?" ”
His words were cold.
I struggled twice, lowered my head and said, "You're pinching me." ”
Soon, he let go of me again, and after I stood firm, I quickly pulled my hand from his palm and rubbed my wrist a little aggrieved.
The room was dark, the shadows of the two of us were intertwined, I stepped back a little, and after a safe distance from him, I looked up at him, and the coldness of his words just now seemed like a fleeting hallucination, and his gaze fell on me calmly, staring at me.
I whispered, "Why are you looking at me like that?" ”
He didn't speak, and the mood on his face didn't change at all.
I felt very inexplicable, when I stood for a while and was at a loss, there was a knock on the door, Mu Jingchi seemed to know who it was, and he didn't let me out, nor did he let people outside, he stood at the window with his back to me, looking at the drizzle outside, falling on the yard, and the plantain was also beaten green.
This Jinling City is really strange, the sun is good in the morning, and it will be drizzling when it rains.
I thought he couldn't hear it, so I whispered to him, "Brother-in-law, someone has opened the door, do you want to let him in." ”
I couldn't see his face, I just didn't think his voice was too happy, and he whispered, "Let him in." ”
I sighed, and walked in the direction of the door, pulling the door open, the person standing outside was Steward Zhou, his eyes were a little sharp, but the moment I looked at him, he lowered his head and called: "Miss." ”
I laughed twice, ignored him, just walked out of Mu Jingchi's study and quickly walked in the direction of my room.
Back in the house, Jasper was still there cleaning up the house for me, and Qing'er was nowhere to be seen. I sat on the sofa, my eyes moved slowly with her, I don't know how long it was, Qing'er came from outside, smiled and said: "Miss, there will be a misunderstanding by the river in a few days, it was organized by Xianle Pavilion to attract business, I heard that it is grander than in previous years, and all the geisha in Xianle Pavilion who are difficult to see are going to go, don't you love to be lively?" Do you want me and Jasper to accompany you to play? ”
I sat back on the couch, fiddling with the tassels on the pillow and said, "What's so fun about that, isn't that a place that men love to go?" People are also making a lot of noise. ”
Qing'er walked towards me and said, "You can't underestimate Xianle Pavilion, although that place is indeed a place that men love to go, don't underestimate Xianle Pavilion, the women in it are all talented, different from the kind of place in Chunlanyuan, you don't sell your body, and there is also a world's first beauty hidden in it." ”
I became interested and asked, "The first beauty in the world?" ”
Qing'er smiled and said: "Yes, I heard that there are very few men who have seen her, those men who have seen her, all of them are impressed by her talent, this time Xianle Pavilion holds a ball, and the beauties who don't come out often will also go, but not everyone can see it if they want to see it, they must pass her request, and they will have to pay five thousand taels of silver." ”
My eyes widened and I said, "Five thousand taels? ”
Qing'er nodded and said, "Yes." ”
I said, "Will anyone go too?" ”
Qing'er said: "There are many such people, before a man is beautiful, money has become a thing outside his body." ”
I said, "What can that be?" ”
Qing'er thought for a while and said, "The first sight will never be forgotten." ”
Just by appearance, it will never be forgotten, so what kind of beauty does it have to become, I said: "How does it compare with Lin Wanwan?" ”
Qing'er immediately replied: "Lin Wanwan is much worse. Qing'er smiled again and said: "Lin Wanwan is just a corner of Xianle Pavilion, although she is good-looking, but compared with the first beauty in the world, she is not much worse." ”
I laughed and said, "When was that?" ”
Qing'er said: "The day after tomorrow, on the banks of the Jinling River." ”
I was silent for a moment, then smiled and didn't say anything more.
The next day, in order to exercise and exercise, I got up early in the morning, and pulled Qing'er and Biyu to kick the shuttlecock in the morning. ”
After I heard this, I looked back and saw that Mu Jingchi was standing behind us, looking at us with a smile in his eyes.
As soon as I saw that it was him, I didn't even care about the shuttlecock on my feet, and trotted towards him, and when I reached him, I asked with a smile, "Brother-in-law, when did you come?" ”
Mu Jingchi smiled and said, "I've been here for a while." ”
When he saw that I was sweating profusely, he picked up a handkerchief and wiped my forehead carefully, saying, "Why are you so diligent today, you actually got up early in the morning and kicked the shuttlecock here." ”
I said, "Exercise." ”
He laughed and said, "It's time for you to exercise." After speaking, he picked up a cup of tea in the maid's hand, and then handed it to me, I smiled at him, and then quickly drank the cup of tea to the bottom in one go, and when the cup was empty, I stuffed the quilt into his palm, and hurriedly said: "I won't tell you, it's about to be my turn, I must win Qing'er and Jasper." ”
After saying that, I ran over again, and Mu Jingchi took my teacup and told me behind me: "Slow down." "But where am I willing to listen to him, as soon as his words fell, I had already hurried to Qing'er and Biyu.
Mu Jingchi laughed twice, then put the empty cup on the table, found a chair to sit down, he seemed to be very idle, and casually took a book I had turned before from the table.
Just when we were kicking hard, Wang Zhizhi walked out of the house, holding the tea, she saw that we were running around the shuttlecock all over the ground like crazy, so she picked up the tea, gently put it in Mu Jingchi's hand and said: "Qingye is just small-" She said this, and when she saw Mu Jingchi's book in her hand, she immediately changed her words and said: "Qingye's body has just recovered a little, such a strenuous exercise is only afraid that it is inappropriate, let her rest?" ”
Mu Jingchi didn't speak, but continued to flip the book in his hand, and when it was my turn to shuttlecock, he stopped the book, his eyes fell on me and said, "If she's happy, let her be." ”
When Wang Zhizhi saw him say this, he had to lower his head and stop talking, and set the snack plate on the table.
Jasper counted on the side: "Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four." When the number was about to break through forty, the shuttlecock suddenly took off and leaped into the air, and the onlookers all pursued it in the direction of the shuttlecock, who knew that it landed high on the treetops. At this time, the maids all jumped up excitedly and said, "Sister Qing'er has won!" Sister Qing'er won Miss! ”
I thought it was too boring, staring at the shuttlecock hanging on the treetops for a while, and then threw a bag of silver into Qing'er's hand, Qing'er took it and smiled and saluted me and said, "Thank you, Miss, for the reward." Then he gave it to the onlookers.
I trotted towards Mu Jingchi, and when I reached him, he picked up the tea on the table and handed it to me and asked, "Lost?" ”
I said, "I'm three years away from breaking through Qing'er." ”
Mu Jingchi saw that I was annoyed, so he smiled and said, "Qing'er, they often play, you are naturally incomparable." ”
After I drank it in one gulp, I sat down next to Mu Jingchi and said, "They are so happy that I lost!" ”
He took my hand, wiped the sweat from my palm, and said, "If I win and have a silver reward, I will be happy." ”
I glanced at them, still jubilant, and did not feel the loneliness of me, the loser, so I said hatefully: "They are dead, and they don't come to comfort me." ”
After he had wiped my hands clean for me, he rubbed my head and said, "Well, you don't lack that little bit of silver, and it's good to make them happy." ”
I held out my hand to him and said, "I have given them all my money, and I have no money." ”
Mu Jingchi smiled and said, "I don't have any money." ”
I took him by the hand and shook it and said, "Brother-in-law." You give it to me, you know I'm the poorest. ”
Mu Jingchi was so entangled by me that he couldn't help it, so he smiled and took something to me, it was a blue gem, in the shape of a water droplet, I wowed, picked it up from his hand, and put it in the sun, the gem refracted a cold light in the sun.
I looked at him again and said, "Brother-in-law, is this thing worth anything?" Is it true? ”
He picked up the teacup and said, "It should be true, you can take it and set something." ”
I said, "I want jasper to embroider on my clothes." ”
Mu Jingchi said: "It will be better to set it on a hairpin." ”
I said, "No, that's boring, it's going to be embroidered on my clothes." ”
I was afraid that he would regret it, so I immediately put it in my clothes and put it up, and didn't take it out again.
Mu Jingchi looked at me like this, and said with a helpless smile: "You, you will toss my things." ”
I picked up the pastries on the table and devoured them. One by one, just as I was eating energetically, I suddenly remembered something, and I said, "Brother-in-law, are you free the day after tomorrow?" ”
He looked down at the book, and instead of looking up at me, he casually asked, "What?" ”
I said, "Xianle Pavilion is holding a dance party on the banks of the Jinling River. ”
"Well, what's wrong." He still didn't look up, and didn't seem interested in the ball.
I lay on the table, looked at him expectantly, and said, "Brother-in-law, will you take me to have a look?" ”
He turned the page and said, "There are so many people, what's good." ”
I saw that he was not interested at all, so I took him by the hand and said, "There is the best beauty in the world, you can take me to see if it is okay." ”
Finally, under my interference, he raised his eyes and looked at me and said, "What the best beauty in the world." ”
I said, "Qing'er said, there is a stunning beauty hidden in Xianle Pavilion, I want to see it." ”
When Mu Jingchi heard me say this, he laughed, rolled the book and knocked it on my head and said, "You are not a man, why do you have to spend a lot of money to read it?" ”
I said, "No, no, you take me there, I just want to go and see, I heard that the girls there are proficient in poetry and songs, and they are proficient in everything, so I will go to learn from each other, can't I edify and edify?" ”
He just fooled around with me, glanced at me, and continued to flip through the book and said, "Let's take care of my body first." ”
Seeing that he didn't agree, I simply stopped talking, and sat there tiredly, he seemed to feel it, and raised his eyes to look at me and asked, "Do you really want to go?" ”
I didn't answer him, I just took out the sapphire again and played with it in my hand.
He put down the book, raised his hand and pouted my chin and asked, "Angry?" ”
I said, "If you don't take me there, I'll go with Qing'er and them the day after tomorrow." ”
Mu Jingchi chuckled: "I really can't help you, I happened to be fine that day, if you want to go, I will accompany you." ”
I instantly stared at him with wide eyes and asked, "Really?" ”
He smiled and nodded, "Well, really." ”
I immediately picked up the teacup next to the book, smiled flatteringly and said, "Brother-in-law, you are so good to me, drink tea and drink tea." ”
He took it and said, "Ghost elf." Then he summoned Steward Zhou and told him to prepare for the day after tomorrow's ball.
The next day, I was still very happy, I got up early in the morning, put on my clothes and ran towards Mu Jingchi's room, Wang Zhizhi was waiting for him to get dressed in Mu Jingchi's room, he looked at me behind me from the mirror, and asked with a smile: "Why did you dress like this?" ”
I had a beard stuck to my mouth, and I just wanted to speak, but who knew that as soon as I opened my mouth, the beard flew on my mouth, and I immediately pressed it to Wang Zhizhi, who was dressing Mu Jingchi. Seeing me like this, he sneered, covered his lips and accidentally laughed and said, "Qingye, you are dressed like this, people you don't know really can't see that you are a woman." ”
I smiled proudly, and then said to Wang Zhizhi: "It's just that people can't see that I'm a woman, so I dress up like this." ”
Then I walked up to Mu Jingchi and asked, "Do you look like a man?" ”
Who knew that as he spoke, the beard flew again, and I immediately pressed it, and stood in front of him again.
Mu Jingchi directly tore the beard on my mouth and said, "Go and change it back, it's neither male nor female, it's not a system." ”
Then he buttoned up his cufflinks and walked towards the desk, and I followed him and said, "No, if I were a woman, how would I see the first beauty in the world." ”
I took him by the hand and said, "Brother-in-law, I must see her today." ”
Mu Jingchi lowered his head and looked for something on the table, he flipped through the information with his hand and said, "I heard that the price is not cheap. ”
I said, "Five thousand taels." ”
He casually asked, "Do you have any money?" ”
I was about to speak, but he turned to me and said, "I don't have any money." ”
I cried with a sad face. said: "Brother-in-law, if you don't have money, I'll be even more moneyless." ”
He took a paintbrush from the table with his fingers, and suddenly beckoned to me and said, "Come here." I didn't understand what he meant, he had already pinched my chin with his hand, and then put a brush on my chin and said, "What if I see a beautiful woman later, what if my beard flies, how rude." ”
After a few strokes, he put down his brush, patted me on the head and said, "Okay." ”
I immediately ran to the mirror to take a look, and found that Mu Jingchi's painting was more realistic than what I pasted, I touched it with my fingers, and it was not easy to fall, so I laughed happily.
Before leaving, I asked Wang Zhizhi if she was going, she said that there were too many people, so she wouldn't go to join in the fun, and I didn't force her, but took Mu Jingchi's hand and jumped and walked outside.
Mu Jing told me from time to time: "Walk well." ”
I didn't pay attention to him until Qing'er in the back reminded me: "Miss, you are a man now, pay attention to your identity." Only then did I react, and I followed Mu Jingchi's side in a proper manner.
The dance party in the Senraku Pavilion was much more organized than expected, the boats were full of all kinds of boats, and a huge stage was built in the middle of the river, on which there were dancers dressed in thin shirts and spinning gracefully in the wind.
I was afraid of getting separated, so I led Mu Jingchi to follow him, and the people who passed by us couldn't help but look at us with slightly strange eyes.
I then remembered that I was wearing men's clothes, and just wanted to pull it back from his palm, Mu Jingchi stopped it again and said, "Let's go, don't get separated." ”
Seeing that he said this, I was led by him generously, and Mu Jingchi took me to a painting boat. But as soon as we got on the boat, there was a person on the boat to greet her, it was a woman, like the mother of Chunlan Courtyard, but she was a little more graceful than the mother of Chunlan Courtyard, she was waiting for us on the boat, and when she saw Mu Jingchi leading me in, she looked at me a few times in a daze, but it was only for a second, she regained her look, accompanied by Mu Jingchi, and whispered: "Mr. please." Then he led us towards the boat.
When we were seated, I looked at the boat, and for a long time I asked her, "Who are you?" ”
The woman glanced at Mu Jingchi, then smiled again and said, "I am the mother of Xianle Pavilion. ”
I didn't expect it to be Xianle Pavilion's mother, and she asked again: "Miss, do you want to listen to the music or enjoy the dance." ”
I was a little embarrassed, moved twice, touched the beard on my mouth and asked, "How can you tell that I am a young lady and not a gentleman?" ”
Xianle Pavilion's mother nodded her earlobe.
I touched my fingers on my ear, and I felt a piercing ear, and my heart was so weak in an instant that Mu Jingchi raised the teapot and said with a smile: "Just now on the road, I kept telling Qing'er to call your son-in-law." ”
I was not convinced and said, "I forgot my earlobe." After a while, I looked at the mother and said, "I look at the beauty." ”
"Beauty?" Xianle Pavilion's mother glanced at Mu Jingchi again, and saw that Mu Jingchi didn't react, so she replied again: "We have a lot of beauties here, but I don't know which beauty Miss wants to see?" ”
I said, "The first beauty in the world." ”
Then my mother laughed twice and said, "This ......."
Mu Jingchi looked at his mother and asked, "What?" Is there a requirement? ”
The mother smiled and said, "Naturally, there is, but Mr. wants to see, he-" Mu Jingchi put down the teapot and interrupted the mother's words: "I heard that Miss Qingle will send a few questions that day, right?" ”
The mother reacted quickly and said, "Yes, yes, five hundred people have paid the deposit by now." ”
I widened my eyes and said, "Five hundred? Why are there so many rich people? ”
The mother smiled and said, "Miss Qingle is famous for her beauty, and naturally there are many people who come." ”
Mu Jingchi said: "I don't know what the problem of Miss Qingle is? ”
The mother quickly sent someone in from outside, and then took the question list to us, Mu Jingchi took it and looked at it, I stretched out my head and asked, "Brother-in-law, I want to see it." ”
Mu Jingchi smiled and handed me the question list, I took it in my hand and glanced at it: "What is the first thing to be in the first place?" ”
The mother smiled and said, "This is a lantern riddle, if the young lady guesses it, it will be regarded as passing the first level." ”
I looked at Mu Jingchi, he put down the cup and said, "Tangtang." ”
The mother immediately smiled and said, "The answer is Tangtang." ”
I didn't guess what it meant, and asked Mu Jingchi again: "What is Tangtang?" ”
"A kind of flower name," he said. ”
Then, the mother said: "The second level is naturally silver, and I naturally don't worry about Mr.'s silver, so I will skip directly to the third level." ”
I said, "What's the third level?" ”
Mom said, "Can you give me something?" ”
I was puzzled and asked, "What is it?" ”
The mother explained with a smile: "Whatever, because when we take the things that Miss gave us, and the things given by the five hundred people, we will take them to Miss Qingle for her to choose. ”
I thought about it, took out some valuable money from my body, and found that it was not something that could attract attention, and I thought of something and simply pulled it from my sleeve and took the sapphire that Mu Jingchi gave me that day. Hand it to the mother.
When the mother saw such a precious, she was immediately a little frightened and said, "Miss doesn't need to be so valuable. ”
Mu Jingchi glanced at me and said lightly, "You are very generous." ”
I suddenly thought of something, and immediately stuffed it back again, saying, "Then brother-in-law, what do you say?" ”
Mu Jingchi handed a teacup with water to Xianle Pavilion's mother and said, "That's it." ”
My mother just wanted to pick it up, but I grabbed it and said, "This thing is too ordinary, how can a big beauty look at it?" ”
Mu Jingchi said: "So many rich people, about most of them have the same mentality as you, what is valuable, you will take what you want to send up, among so many precious jewelry, if you want to attract attention, you will naturally send something unusual." ”
I said, "Really? ”
After thinking about it, I still believed Mu Jingchi, and said to the mother: "Take the water cup, remember not to spill the water in the water cup." ”
Mom smiled and sighed, and carefully carried the teacup out the door.
Mu Jingchi suddenly stretched out his hand to me: "Give me your hand." ”
I slowly handed my hand to him, and he slapped it twice, and the weight hurt a little, and I felt pain. begged for mercy and said, "Brother-in-law, I won't dare next time." ”
He looked at me coldly and said, "I don't have a long memory." ”
I looked at him pitifully, and he let go of my hand.
I quickly took it back, knocked it twice on my clothes, and Qing'er poured me tea on the side and said with a smile: "Miss, you are always very generous, that Qingle girl, if you are a guest like Miss, then you don't have to come out to perform." ”
I smiled and said, "I don't remember it for a while." ”
Then he looked at Mu Jingchi again, and hurriedly lowered his head and drank tea.
After that, I kept lying there waiting for my mother to come and reveal the answer, Mu Jingchi didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, just flipping through the book, and I don't know how long I waited, my mother rushed over with a smile, and said to me with a smile: "Miss, you're in it, you're in it." ”
I got up from my chair and asked, "Really?" ”
The mother smiled and said, "Let's go, let's change boats and go to Miss Qingle's boat." ”
Even Qing'er didn't expect it to be so easy, and asked more excitedly than me: "Really?" Is this true? ”
The mother said with great certainty: "Of course it's true, let's go." ”
I looked at Mu Jingchi in disbelief, he had already put down the book in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Miss Qingle, are there other guests on the boat?" ”
The mother whispered, "Yes, yes." But he didn't tell Mu Jingchi anyone.
I didn't care, my mind was full of stunning faces, Mu Jingchi took my hand and stood up and said, "Let's go, go over and take a look." ”
Then, our boat approached a big painting boat, I followed Mu Jingchi to the big boat, my mother walked in front to lead the way, the sound of the piano inside was beautiful, the piano skills were even more superb than Lin Wanwan, even the maids waiting outside, are all beautiful like flowers.
I followed closely by Mu Jingchi, and when I arrived at the painting boat, there were two maids standing at the door, and they bowed to us, and my mother smiled and said to the maids, "Open the door quickly." ”
The maid leaned over and said yes. Then we quickly opened the door, and my mother led us in, and when we came inside, we saw a graceful woman sitting in the middle of the room playing the lute, and in front of her was a whirling dancing girl, whose face was covered with a veil, and only the upper part of her face was exposed.
Just the upper half of the face, you can see that the five thousand taels are not in vain.
I have never seen a woman whose eyes can be so ecstatic, charming and pure, that a single glance can make a man drunk to death in her beautiful autumn waves.
The hands that plucked the pipa were white and slender, and there was a pink kodan on them, shining like jade, like the color of peach blossoms.
For a moment, Qing'er and I forgot to move, until the woman stopped and slowly got up from the chair. Chao Mu Jing was blessed for a long time, and we reacted.
Mu Jingchi only glanced at her, and then someone let out an exclamation from the side: "Jingchi? ”
When we looked over, Yuan Chengjun was sitting not far from the woman with a wine glass, and Mu Jingchi seemed to have only found out that Yuan Chengjun would be here, and immediately said with a little surprise: "Ninth Master? ”
The two saw each other, Yuan Chengjun put down the wine glass, and walked up loudly and said: "It is said that the first beauty in the world is beautiful, I thought that you were the only one in the world who was not interested, but I didn't expect you to come to this wave of excitement." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw me behind Mu Jingchi and laughed.
Mu Jingchi explained: "I'm clamoring to come, bring her over to take a look." ”
Yuan Chengjun instantly understood, shook his head with a smile and said, "Sure enough, there is no way to be spoiled by you." Then he led him and said, "Go, go and sit with me." ”
I also followed Mu Jingchi, and after we sat down, Yuan Chengjun and Mu Jingchi talked, and I sat there boredly and looked around, there were many people inside. About the people brought by Yuan Chengjun, and I don't know them, so I can only tap the table with my hands to relieve my fatigue.
The beautiful woman poured wine at each table, and when she poured it to our table, she was just about to leave, and as soon as I grasped her white hand, she stopped, raised her eyes to look at me, and probably recognized me as a woman, but just smiled and continued to the next table.
Qing'er hurriedly leaned into my ear and asked, "How do you feel?" Miss. ”
I tasted it and said two words: "tender, smooth." ”
Qing'er was so envious, so she kept muttering to me what the lower half of the beauty's face would look like like an ecstasy. Just as the two of us were muttering energetically, the beauty went around to Mu Jingchi and poured him a glass of wine, Mu Jingchi glanced at the wine glass in his hand, and then talked to Yuan Chengjun on the side.
Yuan Chengjun didn't have much interest in beauties, but a subordinate next to him looked at beauties with squints.
After the beauty poured the wine, she quickly entered a curtain and disappeared, Qing'er and I were raising our heads and constantly leaning inside, Mu Jingchi buckled the table twice and said, "Sit upright." ”
I immediately retracted my gaze, and was about to serve the glass of wine on the table, but Mu Jingchi changed a cup of tea for me, I glanced at him a little unhappily, and he sandwiched a piece of my favorite pastry in my plate and said, "Be honest." ”
Then, put down the chopsticks and ignore me.
The men were talking about the men, so I took Qing'er and I to sit down with me, and just as we were muttering again, the beauty came out again, but this time the clothes were changed, the pipa in the middle was replaced by the piano, and the dancing girls all poured out of the small curtains.
In an instant, the fragrance of clothes and shadows.
All the men who were talking about things couldn't escape their nature after all, and they all didn't blink at the graceful dancing girls in front of them.
Even Qing'er and I lost our minds, I have never seen such a good dance or heard such a beautiful song in my life.
Mu Jingchi also watched, but he didn't seem to be very interested, and finally lowered his head and poured tea.
Halfway through the song and dance, Mu Jingchi put some small snacks into my plate, I just wanted to ask him why the beauty didn't untie the veil, it wouldn't cost five thousand taels, just show us half of the face, but before the words were spoken, Qingle, who was surrounded by people, suddenly raised his weak and boneless arms and wrists, and slowly took off the veil from his ears.
In an instant, all the men in the room gasped, and just as I was looking at that face obsessively, suddenly the dancing girl behind her leaped out from behind, and before we could understand, a long sword pierced directly through the officer who was staring at Qingle before.
Without hesitation, the dancing girl plunged into the officer's throat, and just as the officer stared at her with widening pupils and stunned, the dancing girl suddenly forced, and the sword penetrated the officer's throat completely. It was pulled out of the officer's throat mercilessly, and it didn't take long for the bloody sword to stab Yuan Chengjun on the side.
Then those dancing girls who were still spinning, suddenly came over with swords, and one of them was aimed straight at me, just when I was stunned, Mu Jingchi circled my waist and retreated backwards, and the next second the dancing girl was suddenly stabbed through the lower abdomen by Xie Dong, who suddenly appeared. When the knife was about to be withdrawn from my lower abdomen, I heard a pop, and before I could see it, Mu Jingchi's dry and warm hands lightly covered my eyes.
Suddenly there was silence in my ears, I felt something warm spraying on my face, and it was dark in front of me, and I couldn't see what was going on around me.
just whispered, "Brother-in-law, is she dead?" ”
When Mu Jingchi's hand was lowered from my face, there was a corpse on the ground.
