Volume 1 Spoiling Chapter 9 Cao Ziqing
On the second day, Chunxi got up early and walked to the treasure room in the east room of the dormitory.
Chun Xi played with the Tang Dynasty celadon that had just been sent yesterday, and muttered to himself: "When I first entered the palace, there were only a few decorations here, but now it is only more than a month, and I have filled in half of this place." ”
"This also shows the emperor's favor to the little master." Lan Xin behind her nodded in agreement, thinking about how to invite the little master out so that she could secretly take out the painting. This Mu Hui went out early in the morning, and there was no one to see, and the best candidate actually slipped away, which made it much more difficult for Lan Xin and the others to implement yesterday's plan. It's just that she got up early today, and she has been staying in this treasure room after breakfast, which is very bad for Lan Xin.
"Grace?" Chunxi's mood seemed to have improved, and a smile appeared on her face, but she kept looking at the porcelain bottle in her hand: "Lan Xin, you go and make tea for me." ”
"Huh."
Chunxi put down the porcelain vase in his hand, walked out of the treasure room, turned around and entered the study, pulled a book from the bookshelf at random, and sat on the warm floor on the south side to look at it.
"Little Lord." After a while, Lan Xin came over with tea.
"Is Mu Hui back?" Chunxi took the teacup and asked.
"Not yet. I don't know where I've gone, and I haven't seen anyone all morning. Lan Xin's words were full of complaints.
"I'm back." As soon as Lan Xin's words fell, she saw Mu Hui running in angrily.
"What's wrong? Could it be that Lord Cao is not happy with you? Chun Xi got up and pulled Mu Hui to sit down beside him: "Look, this little hand is frozen red, it should be so angry, I'm afraid I will run back all the way." ”
Mu Hui nodded, gritted her teeth and said, "That's right." That Cao Ziqing thought that he was a royal guard, and the celebrities around the emperor didn't take others in his eyes at all. I just wanted to inquire about the emperor's current situation, but he didn't say anything, and even blasted me out. ”
"Huh. Mu Hui, is it still difficult for such a person to do it for you? Is there a way to get him to tell you the truth? ”
"What's so hard about that? A person who is so arrogant as he naturally has someone to restrain him. ”
"So, you're trying to restrain him?" Chun Xi looked at her with a smile and said funny.
"No, there isn't. It's just that...... Not convinced. Mu Hui blushed and lowered her head, her voice like a cat.
Chun Xi covered her mouth and smiled: "Mu Hui." This Lord Cao is a rich man, both civil and military. There are many talented people in the Qing Dynasty today, and the most famous in this capital is Nalan Rongruo, the son of Cao Ziqing and Lord Mingzhu. ”
"What does the little lord want to say?" Mu Hui looked at her in surprise, a little puzzled.
"You like him?" Ulva is almost certain.
"How so." Mu Hui shook her head and resolutely refused to admit it.
"And why are you blushing?"
"I-" was asked, and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing her like this, Chunxi stopped teasing her, and said with a smile, "Okay." Whether you like him now or not, Cao Ziqing's side will be handed over to you. ”
"Muhui Province."
A few days later, Mu Hui went to Qianqing Palace again.
"Miss Muhui, you're here again."
Mu Hui looked at Wei Yangqi and asked, "Little Weizi, is Lord Cao here?" ”
"Yes, I'm accompanying the emperor inside." Wei Yangqi nodded immediately, and betrayed Cao Ziqing without hesitation.
"Well, I'll wait here."
"Girl, let's go back. Lord Cao ordered today, if the girl comes, please go back, I'm afraid I won't have time to see the girl. Wei Yangji was a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to disobey Lord Cao's intentions.
"I'm afraid I didn't say that, I'm afraid I said that if I came, I would just blow it away, right?" Mu Hui stared at Wei Yangji's eyes and asked.
Wei Yangji was embarrassed, and hurriedly lowered his head: "Miss Muhui understands very well. Don't make Xiao Weizi embarrassed, can't you? ”
Mu Hui didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Wei, I have something important to find Master Cao today, if he is busy, I will stand outside and wait." ”
"This-girl, if it's freezing today, if you don't go back and wait, when Master Cao is empty, the little one will let people invite the girl." Wei Yangji looked at the snowflakes in the sky, and was really worried about her in his heart.
"No need, I'll just wait here, you can do your business." Mu Hui tightened the cloak on her body, which was specially put on for her when she went out.
Wei Yangxi looked at her helplessly, shook his head and walked away.
Mu Hui waited until dusk before she saw Cao Ziqing walking out of it unhurriedly. Seeing Mu Hui, who was still standing at the bottom of the stairs, her face was embarrassed, and she walked in front of her.
"Miss Muhui."
Mu Hui let out a sigh and said with a little anger: "Master Cao can be regarded as coming out, if you wait a little longer, you should freeze into an iceman." ”
"Miss Mu is looking for something?" Cao Ziqing saw that her body was covered with snowflakes, and then looked up at the sky, presumably she had been waiting for a long time.
"Naturally, something is wrong, you come with me." Mu Hui pulled him over, and didn't care about the difference between men and women, and hurriedly walked out, not giving him a chance to react.
It was only after leaving the Qianqing Palace and walking to the remote corner gate that Mu Hui let go of her hand.
"Miss Mu." Cao Ziqing looked at her slightly red face, and felt happy in her heart. Along the way, many people saw it. I thought she would let go, but I didn't expect to bring it all the way here.
Mu Hui didn't reply to him, and hurriedly took a few steps inside. Cao Ziqing was a little helpless, so he had to follow along, but saw a beautiful woman sitting at a stone table not far away. Looking at the clothes, it should be the little master in the palace, and when she saw Mu Hui walking towards her and saluting again, it should be the noble man of Yikun Palace.
Cao Ziqing was still a little puzzled, didn't she wait all afternoon to bring him over to meet her master?
"The little lord is auspicious." Cao Ziqing stepped up to Chunxi and saluted.
"Lord Cao doesn't have to be polite." Chun Xi stood up: "Today, I didn't know that I invited Master Cao to come, which is really abrupt." ”
Cao Ziqing immediately lowered his head and said apologetically: "It was the lower official who made the little master wait for a long time." ”
"If it's worth it, there's no harm in waiting. Lord Cao is a smart person, so I won't beat around the bush. This time, I asked the adults to come, and I really wanted to ask for something. Chun Xi smiled, and did not take these things to heart, but spoke to make Cao Ziqing feel at ease.
"The little lord just commands." Cao Ziqing was also excited when he heard it, he had also heard of this nobleman, and the emperor had mentioned it several times in front of him. But for some reason, I haven't turned over the sign and slept in bed.
"Mu Hui." Chun Xi screamed, and Mu Hui came over from the table with a food box.
"These are some folk pastries, which are really fresh and taste different from the food in the palace. I heard that the emperor hasn't eaten much in the past few days, presumably because the food in the palace is tired of eating, but it is not as good as these folk strange things. I also bothered the lord to send it to the emperor. Chun Xi explained, her expression and movements were very serious.
Cao Ziqing didn't understand why she was like this, the relationship between Mu Hui and Wei Yangxi was very good, and it must be no different from Liang's father-in-law: "The little master sent food, why don't you let Liang's father-in-law send it directly?" ”
"Yes, it could have been sent. But the emperor will also think about those things in the palace, and he must not have seen them and sent them back. Even if I have a good relationship with Liang's father-in-law, my father-in-law can say a few kind words in front of the saint, but my relationship with Liang's father-in-law is really average. If you force someone, it's really not good. I heard that Lord Cao and Mu Hui have a good relationship, and I think the adults will help me. If it's embarrassing, that's it. ”
"No, it won't. This is a good thing for the emperor, how can it be embarrassing. Seeing her say this, Cao Ziqing couldn't shirk it, this is just a trivial matter, and it is a good thing for the saint, why not do it?
"In this way, Lord Cao agreed." Mu Hui was even happier on the side.
"Please also ask Lord Cao not to tell the origin of these things. Just say that it was brought in from outside the palace. If the emperor likes it, I will prepare it every day and ask Mu Hui to send it to the adult. ”
"Why doesn't the little lord want the emperor to know?" This move really puzzled Cao Ziqing, this noble man was really strangely tight. If someone else is replaced, lest the Holy One not know that he has carefully prepared it. On the contrary, she still has to let herself be hidden.
"It's better to do it quietly than to know everything. I hope that the emperor is good instead of a senseless competition for favor, and I ask Lord Cao to help people to the end. Chun Xi said.
"Okay." Cao Ziqing responded, this noble man is really different from others.
"Lord Cao's kindness will definitely be repaid."
"This is all for later, but the emperor now has a little master, which is really lucky. It's just that in recent days, the emperor has been worried about state affairs, and even his appetite has been greatly reduced. I think it's good to have these things from the little lord to make the emperor happy. Then the lower official will retire first. ”
"Mu Hui, send it to Master Cao."
Cao Ziqing walked in front, and Mu Hui followed closely behind. After passing the Longfu Gate, Cao Ziqing suddenly stopped.
Mu Hui's heart was in turmoil, and she didn't notice him stop at all, and bumped into it in one go.
"Ahh Mu Hui touched her forehead and looked at his back in annoyance: "Why did you stop suddenly." ”
"Don't you have anything to say to me today?" Cao Ziqing turned to face him.
"Me?" Mu Hui shook her head: "No, I don't have anything to say to you." It's all here, adults better go by themselves, I'm afraid I'm going to fall into my mouth again. ”
Mu Hui stuffed the food box in her hand into Cao Ziqing's arms, and was about to go back, when she was suddenly pulled by him.
"Wait. I thought you'd tell me the story of what happened in the past two days, good and bad, as you did before. Isn't there anything to say today? ”
"Isn't Lord Cao annoying?" Mu Hui lowered her head and pretended to be indifferent.
Cao Ziqing was a little helpless, but this sentence did come from his own mouth. For a while, I was a little overwhelmed, stood there stupidly, and let go of my hand.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Mu Hui said incorrectly in her heart: "Lord Cao, let's go back quickly, Mrs. Zun must be waiting." After speaking, Mu Hui left without looking back, leaving Cao Ziqing standing silently.
