Mu Xiaochu looked at the wine jug that was upside down in front of him, as if he didn't believe that the wine jug that had just had wine was now out of wine.

Then he heard Situ Yexi's words, looked up at him and nodded sweetly: "Well, Brother Ye Xi is the best." ”

"What a good baby." Situ Yexi walked in Mu Xiaochu and stretched out his hand to touch her soft hair, with a faint doting in his eyes.

It's just that in the next moment, his face changed.

"Huh? You rabbit is so weird, why is there a black eye missing? Just when Situ Yexi bent over and approached Mu Xiaochu, the pendant hanging from his waist hung straight in the air, Mu Xiaochu saw that it was strange, so he stretched out his hand and held it in his hand and wondered.

After looking at it for a while, he continued, "But I can give you that black eye on my rabbit, but ...... I deducted the black dot, and it seems to be gone. After speaking, Mu Xiaochu's tone was a little choked up.

"Qi Ziyan, my rabbit is gone, you won't get it back for me." Mu Xiaochu's eyes were red and he turned his head to look at Qi Ziyan behind him, extremely aggrieved.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault." Qi Ziyan kept apologizing.

But I don't regret throwing it away at all.

At this time, the shopkeeper took the 'wine', and Mu Xiaochu snatched it and poured it into his mouth: "Wow-what kind of taste is this, it's so unpleasant." ”

As soon as he took the first sip, Mu Xiaochu spit it out, staring at the wine jug in his hand with a slightly uncomfortable expression, and then lying on Mu Xiaochu's shoulder sadly, silent.

"Xiao Chu, what black eyes did you just say, can you say it again?" Situ Yexi finally recovered from the shock, and couldn't wait to ask, his eyes that were originally as gentle as jade were full of anxiety after hearing Mu Xiaochu's words.

It's just that Mu Xiaochu just drank something unpleasant, so he just lay quietly on Qi Ziyan's shoulder and ignored him.

This made Situ Yexi even more anxious.

On the one hand, I want to ask what she means, but on the other hand, I subconsciously don't want to disturb such Mu Xiaochu, which can be said to be a dilemma.

"Okay, Xiao Chu is very uncomfortable now, let's talk about something later, but I suggest that you investigate by yourself first, and don't come over to disturb Xiao Chu until there is no result." After Qi Ziyan finished speaking, he left with Mu Xiaochu.

Situ Yexi: "......"

Although Lin De, who was traveling with him, was also very puzzled by what Mu Xiaochu and Qi Ziyan said in the end, he still chose to believe that Qi Ziyan didn't ask anything and left with them.

Because he suddenly understood that Qi Ziyan was definitely not a person without proportion.

He didn't understand, why would such an excellent person as Qi Ziyan be willing to stay in such a small town for five years?

Wait, he seems to know, it's Xiao Chu! It was because Xiao Chu was there, so Qi Ziyan chose to stay there!

Although there are still some things he can't figure out, he just needs to know that Qi Ziyan has no ill will towards Xiao Chu.

The three of them quickly returned to their rooms in the inn.

Qi Ziyan sat on the bed in the inn, and at the same time hugged Mu Xiaochu, who was drunk and leaning on his body, in his arms, looked at her and said softly: "Xiaochu, let's take a shower first and then sleep, okay?" ”

"Oh no, I still have to drink, you all lie to me, that's not wine." Mu Xiaochu raised his head, his eyes were facing Qi Ziyan, and his eyes were slightly red and aggrieved.

Qi Ziyan compromised: "...... Yes, Xiao Chu is right in everything he said. ”

"Hmph, now you know how smart I am, you can't fool me." After Qi Ziyan finished speaking, Mu Xiaochu became arrogant and petite, and his reddish eyes were full of pride.

However, Tsundere only fell asleep on Qi Ziyan's chest in just three seconds.

"...... you-" Looking at Mu Xiaochu like this, Qi Ziyan's tone was both happy and helpless.

I am happy that Xiao Chu's trust in himself can sleep in his arms so peacefully.

Helplessly, Xiao Chu can't take a bath by himself after falling asleep, and it seems that even if Xiao Chu doesn't fall asleep, he can't wash himself......

The next day, because of the reason of going to bed late, Mu Xiaochu slept late, while Qi Ziyan was always by his side, and when the sun was up, there was a room in the inn sprinkled with a little starlight.

At this time, in the palace, several women gathered together and were talking about this year's new champion.

One of them, a woman wearing a pink robe and heavy makeup, said shyly: "Concubine Lin, I don't know if you have heard of it, this time the new champion is not only knowledgeable, but it is said that he is not very old." ”

Another woman said, "Huh? So you've seen him, but won't it be two days before the emperor summons him? ”

The woman said a little proudly: "You don't know this, I have a distant cousin, he is the examiner this time, I just listened to him, and my cousin seems to appreciate him very much." ”

Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded, and the tone was not salty or light: "All of you emperor's concubines are here to discuss other men, so you are not afraid that the emperor will kill you all if he hears it." ”

Then I saw that she kept fiddling with the teacup in her hand, and her beautiful and lovely appearance did not look old-fashioned because of the red robe, but had a different kind of temptation.

But at this time, there was an expression on that clear and beautiful face that was invisible.

When the others heard this, they were shocked, "Lin Guifei can't be such a stingy person, let's just talk about it, and besides, what we say is also the truth." ”

The other woman said in a somewhat mean tone: "Yes, it's a fact, and there's nothing to say, Concubine Lin shouldn't scare people." ”

"yes, that guy is really as good as you say." Just when the women thought that Lin Guifei would skip this topic, she suddenly said another sentence, which frightened some small concubines not to speak, but just bowed their heads and kept silent.

"Okay, the palace is tired, you all go back first." After that, Lin Guifei waved her hand and looked very tired in her clothes.

The other concubines: "Yes, Concubine Lin." ”

Among them was a person who had not spoken all along, but when she heard the new champion, an unknown light flashed in her eyes.

After everyone left, Lin Guifei said a maid and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, they are really bold, they dare to say such things in the palace." ”

"Okay, Xiaoyu, you can help me inquire about the new champion now."

"Mother?"

Lin Guifei didn't speak, but took a sip of tea and bowed her head silently.

Seeing this, the maid Xiaoyu pursed her lips and slowly retreated.

On the other side, when the sun was about to set, the drunken Mu Xiaochu finally woke up.

"Uh-hmm, I slept so well." Stretching a big lazy waist, Mu Xiaochu slowly opened his eyes.

"Woke up?" At this time, Qi Ziyan walked in with food, "Since you're awake, come over and eat something." ”

"Qi Ziyan? I really feel a little hungry when you say that. Looking at the food in Qi Ziyan's hand, Mu Xiaochu unconsciously swallowed his saliva and looked at him puzzled, "By the way, how did I come back yesterday?" ”

Qi Ziyan put the dishes and chopsticks on the table and said softly, "I'll carry you back." ”

"Oh-" Mu Xiaochu didn't have any doubts about this, but after seeing the food, he couldn't stop the disappointment in his tone, "But why is it white porridge, I thought there was meat." ”

After the things were arranged, Qi Ziyan said: "You were drunk yesterday, it's better to eat something light today, what's the matter, you can't come over, do you want me to bring you over to eat?" ”

"I don't need to." Mu Xiaochu walked over and sat down slowly, "I drank yesterday?" But why didn't I have a headache when I woke up this morning? ”

Isn't it common for drunk people to get up early with headaches?

"You know it's going to get a headache." Qi Ziyan nodded her head, "Because I gave you a sobering soup yesterday, but getting drunk and drinking is not good for your health after all, so it's better not to drink it in the future." ”

Mu Xiaochu didn't answer him, but started eating.

After taking a sip of porridge, Mu Xiaochu said: Wine is such a good thing, it's okay to drink it occasionally.

Because it was summer, even in the afternoon, the sun was abundant, shining directly into the house, and the body of the person shining was warm.

About a quarter of an hour later.

Mu Xiao rubbed his stomach and sighed: "It seems that I have eaten too much, but I didn't expect that one day I would be able to eat white porridge and vegetables alone." ”

Suddenly, Mu Xiaochu proposed: "By the way, Qi Ziyan, you said that if I open a pastry shop in the capital, is it feasible?" ”

"Very good proposal, but if Xiao Chu feels too tired, it's okay not to open it, I can raise Xiao Chu, after all, I am Xiao Chu's child husband." Qi Ziyan joked.

"Cut—you've said this many times, you're not annoyed, I'm annoyed." Mu Xiao pouted, obviously not convinced.

The main thing is that she doesn't like to be around people who are younger than herself.

Well, the twenty years old in the previous life, plus the current five years, it turns out that I am already twenty-five years old, and if I am here, I can be an older leftover girl.

Qi Ziyan: Are you sure I'm younger than you?

"Then it's good that I'm responsible for Xiao Chu, after all, your innocence was ruined by me." Qi Ziyan couldn't help but hold his forehead, since the soft one is not good, then come to a hard one.

Mu Xiaochu glanced at him, and said angrily: "It's good that you didn't say this when I was eating, otherwise I would definitely have indigestion." ”

"Xiao Chu, aren't you afraid that someone as handsome as me will be abducted?" Since it's too hard to work, let's pretend to be pitiful.

He was answered with a wide roll of the eye.

The three days passed quickly.

Qi Ziyan also entered the palace in accordance with the regulations.

Unfortunately, his front foot was taken away, and a group of officers and soldiers came from the back foot and captured Mu Xiaochu and Lin De.

In prison.

Lin De said worriedly: "Xiao Chu, do you think it could be that Xiao Yan committed something in the palace." ”

"Maybe, but it's hard to say anything if you haven't seen anyone right now." Mu Xiaochu hugged his knees, also worried.

It's really thrilling to think about, and three days ago I was expecting a good life, but I didn't have to be happy for long before I suffered.

However, she has always believed in one sentence: Misfortune and blessing rely on, and blessing and misfortune rely on.

So never give up on your future because of temporary difficulties and setbacks!

But life still needs to think, just like now, she has no other way but to calm down and think about it.

But it didn't take long for Mu Xiaochu to know the reason.

Lin De's eyes were full of envy, "It turns out that Qi Ziyan is the grandson of General Qi, no wonder I always feel that he is not an ordinary person." ”
