Chapter 2 The Soul Twists the Knee

When the people of the capital dispersed in front of the Hou Mansion, Mo Chenyu and Zhong Nian returned to the house in a hurry.

After knocking on the door and hearing the sound of 'entering', Zhong Nian pushed the door and entered: "The prince of the world, the prince arrived in the capital in three days, his subordinates have been ordered, the Hou Mansion has strengthened its vigilance recently, and there is one more thing, the prince in the palace is here, and he is waiting for the prince in the middle hall, this prince suddenly came, and I don't know what happened?" ”

"Let's take a look." Mo Chenyu hung up the pen in his hand and walked towards the middle hall.

The prince came in the middle of the night this time, not just to welcome his marquis back in triumph on behalf of Emperor Anping.

"I haven't seen it for a long time, the style of the prince is still the same, the slave is here today by the will of the saint, I came to give this painting to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, and congratulate me on the victory of the Anping Dynasty, and wait for the Hou Ye to arrive in the capital, set up a banquet in the palace to entertain the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion, and ask the prince to convey it."

"The emperor's grace is immense, and I have thanked the saint on behalf of my father." Mo Chenyu took the painting with both hands, raised it above the top, and thanked the emperor.

"In addition, the slave has one more thing to inform the prince, the Holy Decree of the Ministry of Rites and Rites will be dismissed from his post and sent to Gu Ning tomorrow."

Mo Chenyu saluted him: "Thank you father-in-law for reminding me, Zhong Nian." ”

Zhongnian took out some silver taels and put them in the hands of the prince, and the prince shirked it: "These are the little hearts of our princes, and the princes should drink a cup of tea." ”

After sending the prince out of the Hou Mansion, Zhong Nian returned to the middle hall, looked at the voice standing in front of the door, and then asked curiously: "Lord Shizi, my subordinates have heard that the waiter of the Ministry of Rites is not the brother of the holy concubine Yu Concubine, and it has only been a few days since he took office, how could he suddenly be demoted?" ”

After sitting down, he sorted out his clothes, took the tea from the maid in the house, sniffed the fragrance of the tea, and had not drunk the Longjing tea in the capital for a long time: "So famous, do you know the holy will?" ”

Zhongnian lowered his head: "My subordinates don't dare to speculate." ”

Mo Chenyu waved his hand: "Zhu Yi, go down, this son will call you again if there is something in this world." After the main hall was empty, he took a slight sip and said, "Then do you know what day tomorrow is?" ”

"The subordinates are stupid, and I ask the prince to teach me."

"Tomorrow will be the tenth anniversary of Queen Huixian's death."

Zhong Nian seemed to understand in a trance why the prince wanted to thank the prince, and at that time he thought that it was nothing more than news, for the now powerful Hou Mansion, how could he be so worried, what is the difference between knowing and not knowing: "My subordinates understand." ”

"In this era of peace, there is one person who must not be mentioned, and that is." Empress Huixian.

If there is another one, it will be Princess Weirou of the princess of the Hou Mansion.

If Princess Weirou was alive, the prince would not have to live on the frontier all day long, and now he is still alone.

It's a pity that both of them have passed away.

"At that time, at the border pass, the whip was beyond reach, and now I live under the nose of the Son of Heaven, to remind the subordinates, what should be said and what should not be said, be cautious."

"Subordinates obey."

In this Yongning Palace, according to Xiao Luzi's rumor, after the Holy Lord stepped into the Jiaofang Palace today, he only left a sentence that no one should disturb, and he never left any holy will, even if he didn't come to report it, Queen Murong also knew that Mu Xining had passed away for ten years, ten years, and the kung fu had passed so quickly in the blink of an eye.

"Now that the concubine's brother has been demoted because of this, please ask the queen to help the concubine!" The jade concubine had no way to ask for help, so she had no choice but to knock on the door of Yongning Palace at night, hoping that the queen mother and the saint would speak, so that the younger brother would fall lightly, and go to Guning, I am afraid that I will not enter the capital for half a step in this life.

"This palace is really helpless." Empress Murong raised her forehead and sighed, her dignified attitude has increased by ten percent over the years: "Yu Concubine, your younger brother has relied on you in the harem for many days, and the saint has just turned a blind eye. ”

Concubine Yu took the handkerchief and wiped a handful of tears fiercely, her expression was full of cruelty: "Why is the Mu Guifei so ghostly when they are all dead!" ”

"Shut up to Hongu! You want to die, but Bengu hasn't lived enough! "Empress Murong usually does not dare to mention the words of Namu Guifei in front of the emperor on weekdays, but now if this remark is heard by someone with a heart, she will still beat her Yongning Palace and spread it, I don't know what to do with the saint!

"Concubine, concubine is anxious, the queen mother forgives her sins."

Empress Murong brushed her sleeves away: "The palace is tired, Pei Lan will send off guests!" ”

"Yes! Jade Concubine Niangniang please. ”

Pei Lan sent the jade concubine outside the palace, ordered someone to close the palace door and did not respond to the bitter pleading words of the jade concubine behind her, turned around and returned to the palace, Queen Murong sat in front of the bronze mirror with the wooden comb: "Pei Lan, it's been ten years, and the palace has grown gray hair, and I don't know if Mu Xining is alive, whether she will also grow old this time." ”

Perrin didn't know how to respond, so she only spoke: "Mother." ”

"If the palace knew about it at that time, these trivial matters would have been restless for more than ten years, so it would be better not to move that mind at that time."

"!" Perrin interrupted.

"The palace is lacking, and the jade concubine has now touched this moldy head, which can be regarded as a lesson, let her fend for herself!"

"Yes, sissy." Pei Lan took the wooden comb in Queen Murong's hand with both hands: "Niangniang, it's not early, rest, the slave has ordered the small kitchen to make a plum mung bean porridge as soon as possible, and send it to Jiaofang Palace tomorrow,"

"Hmm."

I don't know why tonight, Mu Rou didn't feel sleepy at all at all no matter how she rolled on the bed, and this time the inn was also locked, but she opened her eyes and stared up, the strange person she met a few days ago didn't look like an ordinary person's dress.

The gift falls at the foot of Wushan, the sky is overcast tonight, many people who pass by here stay here, but there is no rain when it has passed, but the cool breeze blows to the pillow through the window, so it seems that the person who can do tricks, waving the magic stick, lures Mu Rou to go out of the door.

Wushan rarely has idlers, after all, this place is barren, and the inn opened here is only a gift, and the people who live in it are not there, but it is very simple.

The neighbor's mother-in-law also rushed to the capital on her birthday and bought some rouge gouache.

Mu Rou period I don't know why, today I am very restless, relying on my own small to grow up in this place, along the familiar road all the way to the top of Wushan, the cool breeze gusted in the middle of the night, slapping the leaves to make a sound, Mu girl beat the little bold very much, all the way up.

Why didn't she remember that there was a temple of Guanyin Niangniang here, and she had been here for a long time.

It must have been a child, otherwise how could I be so familiar.

"It's been such a long walk."

As soon as the words fell, a voice came from around him: "Who are you?" ”

The obedient voice was very weak, and there was a chill on his neck telling him that this person was not a good person.

"I'm a good person." The knife was already on her neck, and the bold Miss Mu panicked at the moment, if she had the life to return to the inn this time, she should turn over the yellow calendar to see why she had been coerced recently.

Is it not appropriate to go out or not to meet people.

"The people will come to the Guanyin Temple at night, do you think I am so deceived? If it is truthfully invited, it will surely spare your life. ”

"I really am a common person at the foot of Wushan, and I live in the Gift Inn, what do you want me to say before I can believe it."

Mu Rouqi clearly sensed that the knife on the man's neck shook slightly, and almost scratched his neck: "Gift? Who are you? ”

"I, my surname is Mu, and my name is Rouqi."

The man's hand gripping the hilt of the knife retreated to his waist and beat his spirit: "As a woman, what are you doing in the mountains in the middle of the night?" ”

It was not easy for the other party to let go of himself, Mu Rouqi took two steps forward, and then turned back, I don't know when, the moonlight fell on the shoulders of the two through the clouds, and the man's shoulders seemed to be watered by someone, but he looked down, and a red stain could be seen on the ground where he was just standing, and the eyes should have been gentle, but now he had a terrifying aura around him, and the blood, although she was not afraid, she was inexplicably unwilling to approach half a point.

"I can't sleep, just take a walk."

The man sneered: "Can't sleep and come here?" The girl is really funny. ”

Dodging the man's ridicule, Mu Rouchi stretched out his finger to the man's injured place, "Your injury." ”

"It's okay, it's hard at night, so the girl should go home early." The man turned and entered the temple, leaning to one side as he walked, fearing that there was also a wound on his ankle.

This is not the first time Yunliu has led someone on a mission, but it is the first time that he has been so humiliated, the man chased himself all the way to Wushan, and the people brought out by him were all wiped out, and now he is only left here to find a way to survive on Wushan.

If you want to live, you have to climb over the Wu Mountain, although it is not very far, but now it is wounded, and the group of people can follow the traces of blood all the way to the trace, not for the purpose of survival.

Yunliu rested sideways on the haystack, lifted the cuffs of the robe, tore off a strip of fabric from the white robe, and wrapped it around the crook of his arm.

"Don't." A female voice came from the front of the temple.

"You woman is really bold, she doesn't rest at night, and now she comes and goes on this Wu Mountain." Yunliu didn't care about it, he still tied his wound with the fabric, and he looked familiar with it.

"If you wanted to kill me, you did it just now, why wait until now." Mu Rouqi walked forward, stood in front of him, and put down a handful of herbs that he had gotten out of nowhere in front of him.

Yunliu was stunned: "This is?" ”

"Where did it come from?"

Miss Mu's words were really true: "Dr. Lou's residence is not far from here, and the old man is very weird, I secretly climbed into his yard and took it out." ”

The corners of Yunliu's mouth rose upward, is this the reason for taking? This girl had obviously stolen it from the doctor's yard.

Mu Rou thought on the road, if this man could be a little softer, it would not be so that her eyes were always vicious when she pulled out the herb, but as soon as she came back, she looked at those eyes and looked at herself gently, but she felt that there were still some,

Scary?

Miss Mu coughed lightly: "Men and women don't kiss, you can apply it yourself." ”
