Xie Qian sat on the bed and calmed down for a while, then turned his head to look out the window and found that it was overcast outside, and it didn't seem to be dawn yet. The condensation lamp in the room was faintly shining, and a few small spirits curled up inside, sleeping very sweetly.

She touched the beads of sweat on her forehead and sighed slightly to get up. Her clothes were completely wet, so she temporarily found a coat to put on her body and walked slowly to the window to breathe.

Outside, it was drizzling, the sky was dark, and the wind was sticky.

Xie Qian's mood was even worse, and when he turned around to go into the house and lie down again, he caught a glimpse of Hua Rong standing guard against the osmanthus tree in the yard. The drizzle in the sky knocked down many pieces of osmanthus flowers, like a rain falling around Hua Rong's body. As soon as the flowers on the branches fall, new flowers will open again.

Her gaze was noticed by Hua Rong, and he turned his head to her and nodded indifferently, which was regarded as a greeting.

It happened that Xie Qian couldn't sleep at this time, and immediately greeted warmly: "Huarong, if you don't dislike it, come in and sit down, I just can't sleep, and I want to ask you something." ”

These words clearly reached the ears of Mu Chengye, who was making plans in the room, and his brows furrowed tightly. Hearing that Hua Rong seemed to be moving, he waved his hand irritably, and the window opened just in time to see Xie Qian's room.

Hua Rong glanced at Mu Chengye, and slowly entered Xie Qian's room without letting her close the window.

This made Xie Qian look inexplicable, she wrapped her clothes, and wondered: "Aren't you cold?" ”

"I'm more afraid of death than cold." Hua Rong spit out two words indifferently.

“……”

Xie Qian felt two cold eyes looking out of the window, and when he turned his head, he saw that Mu Chengye was already standing by the window of his room, looking at this side with murderous eyes, as if to say, "If you close the window, I will kill you." ”

She understood what was coming, and laughed helplessly, not only did not close the window, but also opened the window even more.

Hua Rong leaned against the wall next to the gate, hugged his chest and asked with an indifferent look, "Why did Miss Xie invite me to come?" ”

"It's not a big deal, I just want to make small talk." Xie Qian replied honestly, and then pointed to the osmanthus tree in the yard, "I'm curious why there is only such an osmanthus tree in this yard, and it seems to bloom all year round." ”

It is early spring, and it stands to reason that the osmanthus tree blooms in early autumn.

Hua Rong said expressionlessly: "This is planted by the eldest prince." The fifth prince loved to eat osmanthus cake since he was a child, and in order to let him eat osmanthus cake all year round, the eldest prince used a spell to make this tree bloom undefeated. ”

I have long heard Mu Chengye say that his eldest brother loves him very much, and now it seems that it is indeed true.

Xie Qian secretly envied in his heart, and asked casually: "I haven't seen the eldest prince recently, are you still investigating the matter of the immortals lurking in the fox clan?" ”

"Sort of." Hua Rong was obviously reluctant to reveal too much. If an immortal can enter the fox clan, he must be able to endure it a lot. This is not something that Xie Qian can participate in.

She glanced at the little spirits on the table, and then asked, "When will these children go back to their bodies?" ”

As if he had expected her to ask like this, Hua Rong Yizheng said: "The fifth prince explained to me last night, saying that these little spirits can't be allowed to go back for the time being. After a pause, he explained, "These little spirits were captured to threaten you, and if you send them back, I don't know if they will find a way to threaten you again." Therefore, in order to prevent danger from happening, it is safer to put it in a condensation lamp for the time being. ”

Having said so much, Xie Qian was still a little worried. She gently stroked the spirit lamp with her fingers, felt the breath on it, and sighed lightly, "Is it okay for these spirits to float outside the body?" ”

If the spirit wanders for a long time, there is a risk of becoming an evil spirit.

Hua Rong chuckled lightly and said slowly: "This girl can rest assured." Although the Spirit Lamp is an item of the Demon Realm, it can protect the spirits from being harmed, and it will not make them evil spirits. ”

I didn't expect Mu Chengye to be so thoughtful, and Xie Qian's heart was warm. Thinking that it would be good for these little spirits to take care of the house for the time being, I was no longer so worried.

Hua Rong stared at her for a while, as if thinking of something, and said, "Miss Xie, you are about to get married, so be careful about everything recently." ”

"Be careful of what?" Xie Qian felt that there was something in his words.

Hua Rong opened his mouth, turned his head and caught a glimpse of Mu Chengye still looking at this side, and finally swallowed what he wanted to say into his stomach. He pondered for a moment and reminded, "It's always right to be careful. ”

"Okay." Xie Qian responded casually.

Hua Rong bowed expressionlessly and said, "If there is nothing else, Hua Rong will go back and continue to guard." ”

Knowing that he couldn't ask anything under Mu Chengye's eyes, Xie Qian waved his hand helplessly. He opened the door and walked out, standing back where he had been.

Such a stuffy temperament is very compatible with Mu Chengye's uncertain personality.

Xie Qian saw that the rain in the sky seemed to stop, and he couldn't sit still in the house, so he sorted out his clothes and went to Qingqiu Mountain to take a walk.

Seeing her go out, Mu Chengye wanted to follow. But I found that I had become more and more ruthless with her recently, thinking that it should be caused by too frequent contact between the two people.

He hesitated, but just threw out a talisman and turned into a puppet to follow her.

When Xie Qian walked to the foot of the mountain, he felt that there was a puppet behind him, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes. She always felt that Mu Chengye had become more and more strange recently, happy for a while and sad for a while.

She pretended not to feel the puppet behind her, and walked forward slowly, when she saw Mu Hao and a group of guards patrolling, and immediately greeted him to salute.

Mu Haoyi still had that gentle face, and said with a smile: "I heard that Miss Xie will marry her brother, which can be described as a happy event, congratulations here." ”

"Thank you, eldest son." Xie Qian said.

Mu Hao said: "Don't call the eldest prince in the future, it may be better to change the name." ”

"Big brother?" Xie Qian casually shouted out a salutation that he thought was very good.

Mu Hao wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and smiled awkwardly: "You can call it whatever you want." Then he changed the subject, "Is it a habit to live here?" ”

"It's okay." Xie Qian replied casually, "Isn't the recent investigation very heavy?" ”

Mu Haoyi sighed deeply: "It's really troublesome." The third brother was confused for a while to do such a thing, which can be said to have brought a lot of trouble to the fox clan. Now that his uncle's spirit is missing, he can't tell why. Everything is mixed up and there is no clue. ”

Thinking of what Mu Chengye explained last night, Xie Qian nodded and sighed: "The third prince is locked up, maybe the situation will gradually become clearer." ”

"Well, I hope so." Mu Haoyi didn't seem to know.

The two were still talking, and Mu Hongjia over there also greeted the two. He saw the puppet behind Xie Qian at a glance, and couldn't help but tease: "I didn't expect my younger brother to be so worried about you, as if he was afraid that you would run away, and follow him at any time." ”

This was an unintentional ridicule, but it made Xie Qian feel a little weird in his heart.

couldn't help but think of Lu Yu's words again, Xie Qian frowned.

Could it be that he really has treasures that Mu Chengye cares about, such as the spirit in his body?
