Chapter Twenty-Nine: Willingly Into the Fire Pit

Since entering King Ning's Mansion, Ye Ningxiang has never seen Su Qingqing again, thinking that Su Qingqing would be favored by a royal prince to become a noble lady after the day when the palace people choose, but she didn't expect to see Su Qingqing again at the gate of King Ning's Mansion.

Ye Ningxiang was very excited, and hurriedly ran to Su Qingqing's side, and asked very enthusiastically, "Qingqing, why are you here?"

As soon as Ye Ningxiang and Mu Xize left the palace, Su Qingqing came over, because she hoped to see him as soon as Mu Xize came back, Su Qingqing sat on the stone steps outside the palace gate and waited all afternoon. At this point, her hands were numb from the cold, but she didn't care, whatever she did for the man she liked was worth it.

On the day of the palace people's choice, Su Qingqing, who could have been selected by the royal family, deliberately pretended to be sick in order to have a chance to contact Mu Xize in the future, and missed the day of the choice. After that, she also boldly gave the jewelry given to her by her mother before leaving to a eunuch with a low rank but real power in the Internal Affairs Bureau, on the condition that she be assigned to the Ning Wangfu.

It was probably difficult to accept that Mu Xize and Ye Ningxiang went in and out together, and the moment she saw Ye Ningxiang, Su Qingqing felt very unnatural, as if she wanted to avoid Ye Ningxiang's eyes looking at her at this moment.

"The selection of palace people has ended, and the Internal Affairs Office said that there is a shortage of people in King Ning's Mansion, and they want me to come over to help first. Su Qingqing said this in a very small voice, if you don't listen carefully, I'm afraid I don't know what Su Qingqing just said.

Mu Xize seemed to hear that Su Qingqing's voice just now trembled slightly, thinking of the cold outside at this moment, he had already guessed in his heart that Su Qingqing had been waiting for him here for a long time.

"Qingqing, it's cold outside, hurry up and enter the house!" Mu Xize said very gently, and as he spoke, he gently wrapped his arm around Su Qingqing's waist, which was regarded as a kind of comfort for Su Qingqing that he was not favored by the royal family. However, Mu Xize miscalculated that Su Qingqing voluntarily gave up the choice for him.

As soon as the three of them entered the mansion, they saw Danyang and Qin Xiao fighting happily, and the other slaves and maids in the mansion were afraid of being injured by the sword that was not long-eyed, and none of them dared to come forward, but they just watched from a short distance, and let the two of them completely destroy the palace that was a little angry just now.

At this time, I saw Danyang use a nirvana stunt, Qin Xiao could no longer control the fire, and an accidentally defensive force violently knocked the sword in Danyang's hand away in an instant.

I saw that the sword flew towards Mu Xize and the three of them, and it was aimed at Ye Ningxiang's head accurately.

In her previous life, Ye Ningxiang was besieged with bows and arrows, but at that time, she was either immersed in the resentment of her relatives being arrested, or immersed in the grief of the death of her maidservant, but she had never experienced the fear before she died, and she didn't expect that this little accident would make her feel it well.

Ye Ningxiang's brain was blank, her eyes were closed, and she stood there stupidly, waiting for the sword to pierce her skull. Suddenly, a cold but very powerful hand firmly locked his waist, took him around a few times, and finally fell to the ground with him, crushing on top of him.

Successfully helping Ye Ningxiang avoid the accidental sword, Mu Xize breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly realized that he was pressing on Ye Ningxiang's body at the moment, so he immediately got up and said, "I'm sorry, it hurts you." ”

The sword didn't hurt Ye Ningxiang just now, but it went straight through Mu Xize's hair crown, making Mu Xize's originally neatly tied hair all spread out, and it looked a little messy and charming under the breeze.

Ye Ningxiang looked at Mu Xize quietly, Mu Xize with his hair completely spread out like now, he had seen it once in his previous life. That night, Mu Xize suddenly confessed to herself, and then she became husband and wife, she was woken up by the dazzling sun, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Mu Xize who looked like this, but Mu Xize at that time was not as thin and haggard as she is now.

"Thank you, thank you. Ye Ningxiang didn't even believe it when she said this, she was just thanking Mu Xize.

At this moment, Danyang looked frightened, and said in a crying voice: "Brother Xize, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. Then he glared at Ye Ningxiang viciously, and continued: "I just saw that you took Ye Ningxiang out alone without me, and I was a little angry in my heart, so I asked Qin Xiao to be angry." ”

"Then you two will tear down this palace together!" Mu Xize said in a somewhat angry tone.

"Who made that Qin Xiao's martial arts so strong, we tried for an afternoon, and I couldn't take advantage of him at all!" After speaking, he glared at Qin Xiao who was standing next to him viciously.

"Okay, I'm tired, go to sleep first, you two want to compete in the future, it's best to change to a wooden sword, so as not to kill someone. ”

sub-hours. Yipinju.

In a room with orchids in front of the window and a room full of fragrance, Xiao Qingyu was reading a book by candlelight like beans, and next to the book was a very delicate small teacup, which contained steaming tea that had just been poured out of the teacup.

"It's coming. Xiao Qingyu took a sip of tea very elegantly and said with a slight smile.

I saw a black figure flash in front of Xiao Qingyu at some point, and he waved it very respectfully and said, "Childe." "That person is Ye Ningxiang.

"Ning Xiang, what important thing did you find when you came to me so late?" Xiao Qingyu raised her eyes slightly, her warm and soft gaze inadvertently revealed endless love, Ye Ningxiang knew that Xiao Qingyu was the same to everyone, the same gentle and elegant, but every time she looked at him, she would always feel that her heart was melted by him, and her actions would be completely controlled by Xiao Qingyu, which seemed to be the unique deterrent power of her master.

Ye Ningxiang didn't like to be completely controlled, and she didn't like to be attracted by Xiao Qingyu's eyes, so she deliberately lowered her head and said very seriously: "Ning Xiang knows one thing, that Mu Xize turned out to be the leader of the Shadow Guard. ”

Xiao Qingyu was slightly surprised, got up and walked to Ye Ningxiang's side, very close to Ye Ningxiang, and said in a still magnetic voice: "How do you know?"

"He told me personally. ”

"Did he tell you personally?" Xiao Qingyu first asked Ye Ningxiang with some suspicion, Ye Ningxiang just wanted to explain, but Xiao Qingyu laughed, and continued: "Interesting, interesting! If he doesn't reveal his identity to you so easily, he should be one of my most difficult and respectable opponents." ”

What does Xiao Qingyu mean by this, could it be that Mu Xize knew his identity and deliberately told himself the hidden identity so that he could pass on the news to Xiao Qingyu? If this was the case, why did he expose himself? Could it be that he wanted to quit this power game? Ye Ningxiang couldn't help but have a series of question marks in her heart.

"It seems that this Mu Xize is very unusual to you!" Xiao Qingyu smiled, and his words lacked the warmth in his previous words.

However, Ye Ningxiang didn't notice it, because she was still thinking about the question in her heart, she didn't even hear Xiao Qingyu's words clearly, and said casually: "Huh?"

Xiao Qingyu didn't blame her, just patted her shoulder lightly, and said very gently: "It's late, you go back quickly, it's not good to be found by others after coming out for a long time." ”

sub-hours. Ningwangfu.

"Childe, wake up!" Gu Liancheng shook the sleeping Mu Xize a little anxiously, and whispered in Mu Xize's ear.

"Liancheng, you've been coming so often lately!" Mu Xize opened his eyes reluctantly, and his tone was full of laziness and tiredness.

"Childe, that Ye Ningxiang is really not an ordinary palace maid. The subordinates just saw her wearing night clothes, performing light skills, and climbed over the wall and walked out of King Ning's mansion. There was a hint of nervousness in Gu Liancheng's words, but there was a faint hint of murderous intent.

"I know. Mu Xize said very calmly.

"Childe, do you know that the peach blossom tea she made for you was poisoned?" Gu Liancheng's words were even more excited than before, and his voice seemed to tremble a little.

Unexpectedly, Mu Xize smiled faintly, without the slightest hint of surprise, and still said calmly: "I know." ”

Then, Mu Xize patted Gu Liancheng's shoulder, showed a look of great admiration, and said, "Liancheng is really getting more and more powerful, and it is so easy to find out about the poison." ”

"Since Childe knows, why don't you kill her? Childe knows what that poison is, it is to punish the heart, to punish her mind, to make her crazy. Gu Liancheng was puzzled at first, and then he was indescribably angry.

I saw that Mu Xize was still calm, "As long as she likes it, what if she becomes stupid?" After speaking, her expression suddenly became very sad, "The debt owed will be repaid after all." ”

Gu Liancheng stopped talking, but he was puzzled in his heart, what kind of character was Ye Ningxiang who would make Mu Xize willingly walk into the fire pit?

On the second day, Mu Xize still got up very early, and the first thing he did when he got up was to drink a large cup of peach blossom tea prepared by Ye Ningxiang himself, and then he went to Qin Xiao and Danyang's house in turn to wake her up.

Who would have thought that Mu Xize would take the two of them to the National Teacher's Mansion to make amends. Danyang and Qin Xiao were 10,000 reluctant in their hearts, but when Danyang heard that the three of them were going to the National Teacher's Mansion this time, he was immediately interested and immediately agreed, thinking that when the time comes, he can think of a way to take Qin Xiao away on the road, and he can take this opportunity to strengthen his relationship with Mu Xize. Qin Xiao saw that Danyang had agreed, so he no longer insisted.

However, contrary to Danyang's expectations, this time Mu Xize did not walk like last time, but chose to take a carriage. finally had a chance to get close to his brother Xi Ze, but he still had a stupid man like Qin Xiao in the middle, and he was suddenly unhappy.

This National Teacher's Mansion is not too far from Ning Wang's Mansion, and the carriage did not travel long to reach its destination. When the doorman guarding the door saw that it was Mu Xize, he hurriedly went in to pass the word.

I saw that the young man in his twenties who followed Ji Beiyuan to King Ning's Mansion last time walked towards the three of them angrily with a whisk in his hand.

Xu felt the malice of this young man, Mu Xize took the lead in smiling slightly and apologized: "Yesterday, I did something despicable to make amends. ”

But the young man didn't appreciate it, and he slammed the dust without much force, causing Mu Xize, who was standing well, to fall to the ground in an instant. This scene deeply angered Qin Xiao, and he saw that Qin Xiao drew his sword against the young man's neck almost at the same moment that Mu Xize fell to the ground.

Na Mu Xize didn't show any anger, slowly got up, removed Qin Xiao's sword against the young man's neck with his hand, and said with a smile: "Junior Master Ling Chen's temperament is also too impulsive, but it is just to make the adults of your family incontinent in public and lose face, and it is not to kill him. As for you, a little apprentice who has not yet received his true inheritance, will he stand out for him?"

That Ji Ling Chen seemed to have something to justify, but was stopped by the old voice behind him, "Ling Chen, don't be presumptuous!"

The person who spoke was Ji Beiyuan, but Ji Beiyuan's face at this time was different from yesterday's old but energetic demeanor, Ji Beiyuan's face was pale, and his voice was not as sonorous and powerful as before, and he seemed to have aged several years overnight. However, if a person has diarrhea dozens of times a day, his mental state should not be much better.

"Poor Dao has prepared tea for a few people, and invited a few people to rest in the house. Ji Beiyuan's tone of voice was extremely flat, without a trace of emotion.
