"Jiajia, I want to go out." After eating, I said to Wang Jiajia.

"Where?"

Song Erlang covered his mouth and smiled: "Where else can I go?" I see, I have gone to bear the guilt of the thorn. ”

Su Xiaolu pulled his mustache: "That's right, he thought you were killed by Xiao Mu, and tried to find a way to attack Xiao Mu three times and twice, fortunately, Xiao Mu had a big life, otherwise he would ......"

"Go ahead, let's go, make a good compensatory to Qincha, although he claims to be your friend, but after all, he is an official, you need to pay more attention to what he talks about." A-Niang commanded, and suddenly covered her mouth and retched again.

"What's wrong? Want to throw up again? Come, drink some water. ”

"Why don't you go to bed?"

Wang Fatzi and Wang Jiajia were busy around A-Niang.

"Let's go with you, we'll be idle anyway."

"That's right, if Xiao Mu gets angry, with my three-inch tongue, I can also help you persuade."

Song Erlang and Su Xiaolu said, followed me to the door of the Jianghu Inn, and the three of them suddenly stopped again.

"Why did you come here unconsciously? Will Xiao Mu be at the inn? Song Erlang asked.

Su Xiaolu turned around: "Why don't we go to the Assassin Mansion to have a look?" ”

"Feeling." I smiled faintly: "Based on my feelings, I think Xiao Mu must be there." ”

"Why?"

"How much money did he receive yesterday through our marriage, will he let Mu Niangzi get it alone?"

"This ......"

"Okay, you're talking bad about me behind my back again!" Xiao Mu really came out of the inn, followed by Li Dongsheng.

"Envoy ...... Early! Song Erlang and Su Xiaolu hurriedly greeted each other.

I knew that Li Dongsheng's status was noble, but it was inconvenient to expose it, so I had to smile at him, and pretended to say casually: "Make the king early, the owner ...... Early! ”

"Since you're here, let's go upstairs and sit down and have a cup of tea." Xiao Mu beckoned, and said to Li Dongsheng: "You are busy with you, they are here to apologize to me, you don't have to worry." ”

Li Dongsheng "poofed" and smiled: "It turns out that thing is very useful." Hehe, you guys talk! ”

What is it? What is it used for? The three of us stared at each other and followed Xiao Mu to the private room, and were instantly startled by what was on the ground. I saw more than a dozen thorns scattered on the floor, and the spikes were like blades.

Su Xiaolu moved a few steps to the door: "This is ......"

"Aren't you guilty? Take off your clothes, I'll have enough! Xiao Mu picked one up and raised his hand.

I felt my face twitch a little, and I couldn't help but take two steps back: "You...... Are you still here? ”

Xiao Mu smiled slyly: "What? Did I guess wrong, didn't you come to plead guilty? Or are you insincere? ”

"Huh...... No...... Not a friend? Do you really want to fight? ”

I looked at Su Xiaolu and them as if asking for help, who knew that they were talking righteously at home, and they were all silent at the moment.

"He actually instigated Peng Lun to sue me! How many of you, are you still friends with me? Xiao Mu glared at us angrily, and this time, those eyes looked like Mu Niangzi.

Su Xiaolu covered his face with his hands and smiled guiltily: "I misunderstood, it's not us...... Really, just a few of us, how can we have such a great ability. Lee Rejuvenation! It's all done by Li Huichun, really! ”

"Yes, yes, hehe, it's really none of our business." Song Erlang also chimed in.

Xiao Mu was about to say something, but suddenly frowned, covered his chest with his hands and retched again.

Su Xiaolu bumped me with his elbow and said in a low voice, "Is his illness still healed?" Why is it like your mother, and you still have morning sickness? ”

"Don't talk nonsense." I glared at him and looked at Xiao Mu with concern: "Are you okay?" Didn't Li Huichun give you a condition? Isn't it any better? ”

"It's fine, mostly it's just a little nauseous in the morning." Xiao Mu threw the thorn strip, patted his chest, and sat down at the table.

I quickly poured him a cup of tea: "Dr. Li knows that you are not in good health, so he deliberately used Peng Lun's hand to report you, in order to make the saint suspicious of you, so as to dispel the idea of recruiting you as an official." ”

Xiao Mu nodded: "The reasoning is good, so I have told you many times before that there are some things that you can't just look at the surface, because sometimes your eyes will deceive you." ”

"Yes, I'll remember." Song Erlang and the others replied seriously.

"Jiajia's business, I'm sorry." I said stubbornly, he lied to me, but I want to apologize to him, think about it, it's really a little wronged, but who made him Qincha.

"It's okay, your various performances of revenge are very good, your true feelings are revealed, and it is touching, no wonder even the lord believes it. Good thing I didn't tell you the truth in advance, hehe. Xiao Mu commented on himself and was quite satisfied with his plan.

"Mu You, I asked the kitchen to cook you a bowl of chestnut soup, eat it while it's hot." Li Dongsheng came in with porridge and glanced at us: "They are all secret agents you chose?" ”

"Hmm," Xiao Mu took the porridge and took a bite, which looked very delicious.

"Why did you choose so many agents? It's mysterious. ”

Xiao Mu looked at him gently: "For you, with them to keep Xiangzhou safe, you can live carefree." ”

Li Dongsheng blushed: "You eat slowly, I'll go down and get busy first." ”

The scene was a little embarrassing for a while, and when I thought of the words of the prince that day, I was sure that there must be an unknown secret between Xiao Mu and Li Dongsheng. Li Dongsheng came to Xiangzhou City with Xiao Mu, and Xiao Mu's ambiguity for Li Dongsheng made him a little panicked.

"Are you all else?" Xiao Mu took a few bites of porridge and asked again.

To ease the embarrassment, I smiled, "Yes." Actually, I came here today for another matter, I am here to collect debts. ”

"Debt collection?"

"Well, the day before yesterday, that is, in the early morning of the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, you and your friends ate my bean curd and still haven't paid for it."

Xiao Mu smiled lightly: "You remember wrong, it was the prince who had a treat that day, and when I went, he ordered the bean curd, and you asked him to go." ”

"Hehehehe, brother Jianghu, and this matter? Has the prince also eaten your bean curd? Did he say anything? Have you ever complimented your bean curd for being delicious? Song Erlang became excited.

"That's it, you've seen the prince before, but I haven't heard you talk about it, what does the prince look like?" Su Xiaolu also looked curious.

Xiao Mu said disdainfully: "The prince only has one identity, and he can still have three eyes and two mouths?" It's not like it's human-like, it's not as good-looking as me.

As for the bean curd, he didn't comment on it, but he definitely thought it was delicious, because he ate a full bowl of it. ”

"Hehe, envoy, I really envy you, I know so many people, even the prince invites you to eat." Su Xiaolu's exclamation is definitely heartfelt.

Xiao Mu shook his head: "Do you know what it means to be 'cold in high places'?" Although the crown prince has a noble status, he is not as comfortable as you. The current queen can't tolerate him in her eyes, but the prince she gave birth to is too young, so he was lucky to keep the crown prince. In order to seek a backer, he did not hesitate to recognize Li Fuguo as his father...... Hey, do you know who Li Fuguo is? ”

"Yes." I replied, "O Prime Minister today! ”

Xiao Mu pouted: "Prime Minister? Hehe, a little eunuch who rises to the top by relying on his beard and fear of horses, what talent can he have to govern the country? ”

"Huh? Eunuch? "All three of us froze, we hadn't heard of it.

"He was originally the personal eunuch of today's saint, his real name is Jingzhong, Ma Weipo of the year, he instigated the saint to secretly instruct the forbidden army to launch a mutiny, and then admonished the saint to go north to Lingwu called the emperor, so he was given the surname 'Li' by the saint and named 'Fuguo'. After that, it will rise and rise! Even the national teacher Li Mi was forced by him to retreat to Nanshan again.

The Tang Dynasty was handed over to a eunuch, do you think it is possible to regain prosperity? Even if the Tianbao Rebellion will eventually be calmed down, Datang will also be greatly injured. What is the point of becoming an official in the court, in addition to being squeezed out by traitorous ministers, and not being able to turn things around? The prince begged me for help, but I was too lazy to play with them! ”

I listened to Xiao Mu speak freely, and I thought it might be true. Am I the one who has misunderstood him all along? Or did he deliberately mislead people so that others would think that he was also ambitious, so that he could negotiate a deal with him?

"Then it will be two months, and the envoy will ...... Just like us, you're an ordinary person? Su Xiaolu asked, his eyes full of anticipation.

"That's right, when the time comes, I'll still be a free-spirited fortune teller." Xiao Mu finished eating the chestnut soup and pushed the bowl aside: "Do you suddenly feel a lot closer to me now?" ”

"That's right, you don't have an official appearance." Su Xiaolu smiled, sat down next to Xiao Mu, and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Then will you still be in Xiangzhou City by then?" Song Erlang asked.

"Of course."

Su Xiaolu pointed at me: "At the door of the inn, next to the Jianghu brothers to set up a fortune-telling stall?" ”

"Hehe, that's a good idea."

"That'...... We'll give you a ginseng market! ”

"Okay! We will divide the money equally. ”

"Little thief Su, what should you do if you have some bad ideas and get caught?"

"I'm a former Qincha, how can those who catch us if they don't remember some old feelings?"

……

I listened to the three of them talking happily and giggling along the way. After a while, I thought that there were still unanswered questions, so I hurriedly asked, "Brother Mu, I actually have one more thing to do today." ”

"Say!"

"You're well-informed, do you know about disguise?"

Xiao Mu's smile froze, and he took a sip of tea before replying, "Of course I know." ”

"In order to hide Jiajia's identity, you asked Mu Niangzi to use a disguise technique on her, and even I couldn't recognize it. So, I wonder, how exactly does this magic work? ”

Xiao Mu smiled and said, "Since you think it's a miracle skill, of course there are very few people who know it." At best, Mu Niangzi can only use it, that is, to help others put on their faces, and then modify them, and confuse the real with the fake.

The real technology lies in the production, it is very difficult to find the right gum, and it also needs to be boiled into a suitable film by skilled craftsmen, which is too thick to fit and easy to fall off, and too thin to break.

If you need to wear it for a long time, you also need to punch holes in the membrane to breathe and perspire, which is a time to test the craftsmanship of the craftsman, otherwise a hole will be drilled, the whole membrane will collapse, and everything will have to start anew. ”

Su Xiaolu was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped: "It's so troublesome!" ”

"Or else? If it's simple, then everyone wears a mask to show people, and there is no chaos in this world? ”

"That's right, I'm still planning to make a face like yours somewhere, and then run rampant in Xiangzhou." Su Xiaolu joked.

"My face is not cheap, where can you afford it?" Xiao Mu said, touching his face, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even more weird.
