Princess Resurrection
Phoenix Nirvana: The Road
to Glory and Favor of the Demon Queen Mu Lan asked Chen Zhirong in a harsh voice, each of which seemed to be much more fierce, and he did not intend to let Chen Zhirong go.
Chen Zhirong’s face changed again and again.
These things, she has always dealt with very hidden, even if Mu Hongyuan do not know, how can Mu Lan know these.
“I’m right, aren’t I?” Mu Lan sneered, “So, now that you’ve done it, why don’t you wait for my mother to ask for her life?”? After all, she’s been wronged for more than ten years. She may not have been reincarnated yet, but she’s waiting for you.
Chen Chih-jung suddenly pushed Mu Lan away. “Mu Lan, don’t scare me.”
“Ha ha!” Mu Lan smiled faintly. “Am I scaring you?”
“What kind of medicine did you give me so that I could see Luo Xue’s appearance?” Chen Zhirong reacted quickly and suddenly connected in series.
Mu Lan’s eyebrows and eyes did not move, and the deep meaning was hidden in his low eyes. Looking at Chen Zhirong
again, Chen Zhirong only felt that Mu Lan’s smile was gloomy, and in such a cold place as the dungeon, it was even more windy.
“Do unto others as they do unto you.” Mu Lan calmly said every word.
Chen Chih-jung’s face changed. “Impossible.”
She is surrounded by absolute cronies.
These years, Chen Zhirong do things, but I know, so can be close to Chen Zhirong people are Chen Zhirong absolutely trusted people, including three meals a day, are sent by special people. There is absolutely no chance for outsiders, let alone Mulan. It’s impossible
for Mulan to find anyone who can almost do it.
Mu Lan saw Chen Zhirong panicked appearance, just smiled, and did not explain what, and then, Mu Lan also did not stay in the dungeon, turned quietly toward the outside of the dungeon, did not pay attention to Chen Zhirong.
Chen Zhirong looked at Mu Lan to leave, that kind of sad feeling also rushed to become obvious.
For a long time, Chen Zhirong has not been able to recover from such panic, and countless pictures have flashed through her mind.
Even Luo Xue’s face, like a fantasy, once again appeared in front of Chen Zhirong.
Chen Zhirong finally couldn’t hold back and screamed.
When Mulan left the dungeon, she heard such a scream, and her mouth raised a sly smile, but her footsteps did not stop.
The guard saw Mulan come out and carefully helped Mulan up the steps.
Mu Lan nodded, did not say anything, and then walked in the direction of the snow building, the guard quickly closed the door of the dungeon, as if Mu Lan had never been here.
……
At night, the snow falls in the building.
Mu Lan looked absent-minded, as if he was waiting for something.
Occasionally, Mu Lan’s line of sight falls on the uninvited Li Shiyu’s body, but finally did not say anything.
Li Shiyu is not unaware, but before Mu Lan did not take the initiative to open his mouth, Li Shiyu did not take the initiative to ask questions, slender fingers, gently to Mu Lan’s wound medicine. Although the
wound has healed.
But the scar still looks a little shocking.
Li Shiyu’s eyebrows slightly twisted up, but the movements in his hands did not stop.
Since Mu Lan was injured, almost the next day Li Shiyu will appear in the palace, two people did not talk, Li Shiyu will give Mu Lan finished medicine, will take the initiative to leave, also do not need Mu Lan under the order to leave.
It’s just that Mu Lan has never been as thoughtful as she is tonight.
“You have a mind.” After Li Shiyu put down the medicine bottle, he pinched Mu Lan’s chin and asked directly.
Mu Lan raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Shiyu. “Can I hide my thoughts from Your Highness?” “Do you want Chen Chih-jung’s life?” Asked
Li Shi-yu with a half-smile.
Mu Lan sees Li Shiyu to see through, but also did not deny, hum, Li Shiyu this just loosened Mu Lan to stand up, but always looked down at Mu Lan. “What are you looking at?” Asked
Mu Lan, who was somewhat upset by Li Shiyu.
You want to kill Chen Chih-jung, but the process is different from what you think. You wanted Lord Mu to do it, but unexpectedly, Lord Mu had already followed your clues to find out what had happened in those years, but he was still indifferent? Li Shiyu said directly.
Mu Lan twisted his eyebrows and did not speak again. It is not surprising that
Li Shiyu knows this. After Mu Lan said these words
that day, Mu Hongyuan naturally sent someone to investigate.
Mu Lan thought that under such circumstances, as long as she added fuel to the flames, then Chen Zhirong would surely die, but what he did not expect was that Mu Hongyuan had no movement at all.
Even the old woman and the slaves who knew about it were dealt with by Mu Hongyuan.
Like Mu Lan’s words and deeds, this makes these slaves in deep danger, and ultimately even their lives can not be saved.
But Chen Zhirong is safe and sound in the dungeon.
“Now that they all know, why should they ask me again?” Mu Lan waved Li Shiyu’s hand with some coldness.
“Do you think Mu Hung-yuan is a fool?” Li Shiyu looked at Mu Lan coldly. “What do you want? Will Mu Hongyuan follow your idea?”
Mu Lan did not answer.
To move Chen Chih-jung is to move the whole body. The shadow guards that Mu Hongyuan keeps outside are all run by the money of the Chen family. Chen Zhirong is dead, and there must be no contact between the Chen family and Mu Hongyuan. You know, for so many years, how many secrets does the Chen family have about Mu Hongyuan?
Li Shiyu looked at Mu Lan’s eyes as if he were saying that Mu Lan had overreached himself. How can Mu Lan not understand
these principles, but when Li Shiyu said it was broken, Mu Lan sneered, unable to say whether it was disdain or ridicule.
“What I want, there is nothing I can’t get.” Mu Lan looked cold, but his voice was very calm.
Li Shiyu raised his eyebrows and suddenly hooked Mu Lan’s chin. “Mu Lan, do you know what the king likes about you?”
Mu Lan twisted his eyebrows and did not understand Li Shiyu’s sudden question.
Li Shi-yu rubbed his calloused fingers against Mu Lan’s delicate skin. Suddenly he chuckled, and then he said clearly, “Your strength.”
Mu Lan looked at Li Shiyu quietly and said nothing.
Then, Li Shiyu released Mu Lan.
Mu Lan is very natural to step back, in the eyes of the meaning of the guest again clear, but Mu Lan’s mind is not like Li Shiyu’s body, the corner of the eye always falls outside the snow building, as if waiting for something.
However, Li Shiyu did not mean to leave.
Just as the two were deadlocked, suddenly there was a knock on the door. It was the voice of the housekeeper Chen: “Young lady, it’s no good. The imperial concubine is crazy in the dungeon.”. Wang Yeh and the old lady have all gone there.
Mu Lan’s hand, hidden in his wide sleeve, tightened.
Li Shiyu looked at Mu Lan.
Mu Lan did not speak much and turned to walk out of the snowfall building.
At the moment when Mu Lan turned around, Li Shiyu had already clasped Mu Lan’s hand, and his eyes sank.
Mulan said directly, “Let go.”
Li Shiyu looked at Mu Lan, before Mu Lan’s patience, finally Li Shiyu loosened Mu Lan’s hand, Mu Lan ignored whether Li Shiyu was still in Luo Xue Lou, hurriedly pushed the door out. House
keeper Chen is waiting outside the door.
Mu Lan nodded and said, “What’s the situation?”
Chen butler in Mu Wangfu is a long-experienced person, even before Chen Zhirong made those things, Chen butler can face without changing color.
And now, Chen butler’s eyes actually with a trace of panic. When he looked at Mulan
again, his voice stammered: “The princess appeared in the dungeon.”
“Mother?” Mu Lan twisted his eyebrows.
Yes. The empress appeared in the dungeon and pestered the side concubine. The side concubine was so frightened that she screamed. At first, the guards in the dungeon didn’t react. When the guards reacted, the guards were also frightened. The princess was in the dungeon.
Chen butler said vividly, but obviously still a little frightened, looked at Mu Lan, swallowed saliva, and then continued to say: “The empress’s feet are off the ground, she is not alive..”
Mu Lan frowned more and more tightly.
“Young lady, don’t disbelieve what the slave said. The guards in the dungeon can see it clearly. The prince and the old lady have already passed by. I’m afraid they have seen it too.” Chen sighed. “The Empress has come to settle accounts.”
“You know?” Compared with Chen butler’s panic, Mu Lan seemed much calmer. House
keeper Chen quieted down and said, “The slave doesn’t know much.”. Side imperial concubine empress, except for a few confidants, for others, are somewhat reserved, for slaves is the same. But no one with a discerning eye could see that the princess’s body was failing at that time.
Chen recalls what happened at the time, and finally sighs: “There are more ghosts in the palace than empress.”
Mu Lan hum, the pace followed a few minutes faster.
Chen butler followed closely behind Mu Lan, and the two of them walked quickly toward the dungeon.
……
When Mu Lan approached the dungeon, he heard Chen Zhirong’s shrill cry, and the guards outside the dungeon looked panicked, pale and frightening, as if they had seen a ghost.
When he saw Mu Lan, his heel went limp. “Empress, the slave didn’t do anything. Empress, don’t hurt the slave.”
Mu Lan’s eyebrows twisted up.
She was wearing a light white skirt, and her eyebrows and eyes were exactly the same as Luo Xue’s.
The guard was frightened in the dungeon, and when he suddenly saw Mu Lan, he subconsciously felt that this was Luo Xue, and naturally he knelt down without thinking, desperately begging for mercy.
I was afraid that the seeping picture would appear in front of me.
Chen butler heard the guard’s words and gave the guard an ear photon directly. The
crisp ear photon is particularly clear in the dark night.
The guard suddenly came to his senses and realized what he had done. “The slave has seen the young lady. Young lady, you don’t remember the mistakes of the little people. Don’t haggle with the slave.”
But his voice was still a little trembling. Knocking his head on the ground
desperately.
Mu Lan did not speak, hurried toward the dungeon, Chen butler glared at the guard, immediately followed up.
The dungeon is much more lively.
Mu Hongyuan, Wang Xueshuang, Mu Zhihua, Mu Zhantian stood in a row, even He Yan seemed to be surprised, in addition to now seriously injured did not come to Ji Niang, Mu Wangfu people are almost a Qi. The eyes of
all the people were filled with amazement.
Mu Lan also saw it. There was a flash of surprise in
her eyes, but she soon calmed down, and the people here seemed to be completely frightened and unresponsive, and even Mu Zhantian and Mu Hongyuan, who were usually calm, could not say a word in amazement. The door of
the dungeon was opened.
It’s like it was knocked open by an external force.
A woman dressed in white, dishevelled hair, lower body with blood, floating in the air, she did not shadow, but slightly exposed face, but clearly told the people present, her identity.
That’s Luo Xue’s face.
Pale without a trace of blood, as if to do their best to leave Mu Lan.
It even gives people the feeling that the wind and rain are falling, and the next second Luo Xue is completely reduced to ashes.
But it happened that such a person appeared in front of all the people.
But Luo Xue’s target is not the people present, but in the dungeon of Chen Zhirong, Chen Zhirong has long been frightened incontinence, voice trembling, face panic, constantly screaming, and even desperately grabbing their hair, as if to follow their own hair uprooted.
Are you afraid of me? Luo Xue’s voice came.
Then there was a burst of giggling, as if the young Luo Xue turned to laugh at Mu Hongyuan, naive and romantic. It’s just that the sound makes people feel nervous when they hear it in their ears.
“Why are you afraid of me?” Luo Xue drifted closer and blocked Chen Zhirong more and more. “Aren’t we good sisters?”? You tell me, because I am not in good health, I want to have a good rest, and my husband will take care of you, right? But what did you do? You put a slow poison in my food every day, driving me up the wall little by little.
“No, no, no..” Chen Zhirong’s whole person has been too scared to say a complete word.
“Not what?” Luo Xueyin smiled sadly.
Mingming has a beautiful face, but what he says is extremely sinister: “Zhirong, my good sister, it’s really lonely down there. We are good sisters. You have to come down and accompany me, right?”
“No..” Chen Zhirong’s screams penetrated the dungeon.
Even standing people, listening to such a voice, all seem creepy.
And Luo Xue’s hand stretched out from the long sleeve, not human bones, but with flesh and blood, but that kind of flesh and blood in the dim light suffused with blue, almost transparent, as long as you look carefully, you can clearly see the traces of hand bones.
“Come with me and I will treat you well.” Luo Xue giggled, “I will give you all the good things. If you have mine, you will have yours.”. How could you let my sister be so miserable down there, didn’t you?
Chen Zhirong desperately covered his eyes, did not dare to look, did not dare to move.
Luo Xue is getting closer and closer.
The feeling of the wind also followed more and more, and even in the airtight dungeon, there was a cold wind.
Until Luo Xue’s hand was on Chen Zhirong’s neck.
Such a picture made the people present look frightened.
Mu Zhihua almost screamed, if not for his mouth was tightly covered by Mu Zhantian, Mu Zhihua almost collapsed.
Mu Hongyuan’s eyes did not leave Luo Xue’s body.
That’s his Luo Xue.
Luo Xue passed away for more than ten years, as if he hated Mu Hongyuan, never entered Mu Hongyuan’s dream, but now he appeared in front of himself in this way.
“Cher, is that you?” Mu Hongyuan’s voice trembled.
Wang Xueshuang was so shocked that she could not stand steadily. Mammy Li held Wang Xueshuang tightly and was also sweating.
Luo Xue seemed to hear Mu Hongyuan’s voice, suddenly turned around, a beautiful face appeared in front of everyone, and Mu Lan is almost exactly the same.
Only in such a pale skin, it has become bright. The eyes, which were
full of stars, were particularly empty.
Also seems to hear the figure of Mu Hongyuan, Luo Xue has a moment of hesitation.
Chen Zhirong did not want to escape from the dungeon, but Luo Xue’s action was faster, and Chen Zhirong had been nailed to the wall, unable to move.
“Where do you want to go?” Luo Xue’s voice was not gentle, but a little more fierce and gloomy.
Chen Zhirong is going crazy.
But Luo Xue’s eyes fell on Mu Hongyuan: “Husband, is that you?”? Have you come to see me?
“It’s me..” Mu Hongyuan’s voice came calmly, “You can talk to me if you have something to say, you calm down first.”
Luo Xue listened to Mu Hongyuan’s words and giggled: “Husband, are you still protecting her mother now?”? Did you ask her how I died? Have you ever done justice for me? Never. Is this the husband I am trying to protect with my life?
As he spoke, Luo Xue giggled and seemed to be seeping more and more.
Her hand pinched Chen Zhirong’s neck, as if Chen Zhirong would be killed here in the next second, while Luo Xue always looked at Mu Hongyuan’s position.
Husband, you are not the one who loves me the most. Will my husband agree to any of my conditions? Then I just want to take Sister Chih-jung down with me. Does my husband feel distressed?
Luo Xue was still smiling, and suddenly she looked at Mu Hongyuan with a tragic smile. In her empty eyes, she began to bleed: “Husband, I died unjustly. If you don’t redress my grievances, do you still want to stop me?”
……
Mu Hong and Luo Xue kept approaching themselves, and subconsciously they also took a few steps back.
Mu Zhantian was the first to come to his senses from such a frightening environment. Without thinking, he drew his sword and waved it at Luo Xue: “Are you a human being or a ghost? Don’t pretend to be a ghost here.”
Then, Mu Zhantian was also shocked.
The sword passed directly through Luo Xue’s body, but did not hurt Luo Xue.
Luo Xue’s laughter was even more mournful: “Sister Zhirong, your child can’t tolerate me either.”
Chen Zhirong had already been unable to say a word, and his expression was in a trance.
Mu Lan looked all the way, did not say a word, Chen butler followed Mu Lan’s side, legs and feet are trembling, especially when Luo Xue looked over. Without thinking about it,
Chen knelt down and said, “The slave has seen the princess.”
Luo Xue did not seem to see Chen butler, looking at Mu Lan, but the eyes are much milder, the original empty eyes also with a trace of tenderness: “Is it Lan?”
“Yes.” Mu Lan answered.
“Lan’er, mother can’t protect you, but now if anyone wants to humiliate you, mother will get justice for you.” When Luo Xue opened her mouth to Mu Lan, she seemed much more gentle.
Mu Lan closed his eyes and said, “Mother, go back. There are evil people in the palace, but there are also many good people. You will frighten people like this.”
“Lan’er, this poisonous woman even wants to hurt you. Do you still speak for her?” When Luo Hsueh faced Mu Lan, she was always gentle. “Niang wants her to tell herself how she killed her in those years. Otherwise, Niang will die in her grave, and she won’t be able to be reincarnated as a human being.”. Mother has been imprisoned here for so many years, and finally you’ve come back.
Luo Xue wanted to touch Mu Lan, and Mu Lan stood.
But Luo Xue’s hand passed through Mu Lan’s skin and could not be touched at all.
Luo Xue looked at Mu Lan and cried.
A drop of tears fell down, and when they dropped on the ground, they turned into tears of blood.
“Cher,” Mu Hongyuan called Luo Xue. In such a cry,
Luo Xue suddenly came to her senses, and her face became much more gloomy: “Mu Hongyuan, you don’t deserve to call me.”. Since you can’t redress my grievances, I will go naturally if I get out of my mind. Luo Xue,
who had been standing in front of everyone, suddenly flew back.
Chen Zhirong screamed instantly.
And Luo Xue’s hand pinched Chen Zhirong’s neck, saying word by word: “Chen Zhirong, tell everyone how you killed me.”
Chen Zhirong’s eyes have long been scattered.
In Luo Xue’s gloomy words, she had already been scared out of her mind, desperately directed at Luo Xue to take off.
Luo Hsueh was still giggling: “Why, are you reluctant to say, or are you afraid to say?”
It seems that the strength of the palm is tight again.
Obviously Luo Xue is a ghost, and does not have any strength, even through the crowd, are not, and now Luo Xue is like a living person, the strength of the big scary.
“Really don’t say?” Luo Xue’s gloomy voice suddenly became gentle and plaintive. “Sister Zhirong, do you really want me to die so miserably?”? It’s really lonely down there. I want you to be with me.
Chen Zhirong’s screams followed one after another.
But Luo Xue did not let go of Chen Zhirong’s meaning.
Chen Zhirong is almost crazy in the dungeon punching and kicking, completely regardless of the image, in such a panic, Chen Zhirong just want to escape from the front of Luo Xue.
However, no matter how hard Chen Zhirong tried, he could not escape from the illusion of Luo Xue.
Little by little, I was cornered.
Mu Zhihua had long been too frightened to speak, and his face turned white and white.
Wang Xueshuang kept reciting Buddhist sutras, not knowing whether he was afraid of the present picture or wanted to release Luo Xue’s soul.
“Where on earth did the evil come from?” Mu Zhantian was stunned for a moment, but when he came to his senses, he looked very calm. “The king wants to see if he really can’t subdue you.”
Then Mu Zhantian looked at Mu Hongyuan and said, “Dad, even if this ghost is really the reincarnation of Princess Luo Xue, if you don’t deal with it under such circumstances, aren’t you afraid that people in the palace will be in a panic?”
Mu Zhantian is asking Mu Hongyuan, trying to make Mu Hongyuan sober.
“Besides, if something really happens to my mother, the Chen family will be cut off from us, and it won’t do us any good.” Mu Zhantian said quickly.
In the end, Mu Zhantian almost roared.
And Luo Xue seemed to look over and giggle.
I don’t know whether I want to loosen Chen Zhirong and come to Mu Zhantian or do something else.
“Luo Hsueh,” said Wang Hsueh-shuang, her voice trembling slightly. “You just go and be reincarnated. Will your mother handle things here?”
“Not good.” Luo Xue’s tone is totally non-negotiable.
She smiled at Wang Xueshuang, but didn’t mean to hurt her. Chen Zhirong wanted to leave quickly while Luoxue was distracted, but Luoxue reacted quickly: Sister Zhirong, where do you want to go? You haven’t told everyone what you want to say.
The slender white hand has been attached to Chen Zhirong’s neck, the voice has become gloomy,
Chen Zhirong abruptly imprisoned in Luo Xue’s sphere of influence, completely unable to move. There was
even a pain in the neck.
Luo Xue clearly wants Chen Zhirong’s life.
“Do you want me to die unjustly?” Luo Xueyin smiled sadly, and a cold wind came involuntarily from his side.
Chen Zhirong’s face became more and more pale.
In the gloom of Luo Xue, Chen Zhirong’s last nerve was completely broken.
She shook her head desperately and shouted, “Sister, I was wrong. Forgive me. I was wrong. Will you let me go? I don’t want to die. I don’t want to die.”
Luo Xue’s smiling face, as if because of Chen Zhirong’s admission, became happy a lot. Mu Hongyuan, who was standing
opposite, had already known that things were strange in those years, but when he was really called out by Chen Zhirong, he still had some eyebrows twisted.
Wang Xueshuang looked at it in amazement, completely unaware of such a thing.
Mu Zhantian and Mu Zhihua’s face also changed, although they were young at that time, but it does not mean that Chen Zhirong did not say these things to them later.
Instead, Mu Lan stood, his spine straight, his eyes flashed with shock, and then looked at Mu Hongyuan.
Mu Hongyuan did not dare to look at Mu Lan for the first time, which was a guilty conscience.
And Chen Zhirong’s voice came in a mournful voice: “Luo Xue, why is it you? Why can’t it be me? I have devoted myself to Wang Ye and given everything for the palace, but you have done nothing. You are the princess.”. I will kill you.
Chen Chih-jung fell into a frenzy and shouted angrily at Luo Xue: “Wang Yeh is protecting you. I can’t do anything to you at all. But so what? I can grind you away little by little. I let you poison you. Even the imperial physician in the palace can’t find out why the poison is chronic.”
「……」
“I watched your body collapse day by day, and I was so ecstatic. I didn’t expect that under such circumstances, you didn’t die, and you were pregnant.”
Chen Zhirong said these, is really hate to gnash teeth, and then look at Luo Xue, even desperate to kill Luo Xue again.
Luo Xue was just giggling, unable to tell whether it was cold or something else.
The white, almost translucent face, more and more in this gloomy dungeon, made people feel nervous. Hehehehe
, so what if you’re pregnant? I can kill you if you’re pregnant. Unexpectedly, the evil in your stomach was born, but it was too late. Your body, which has been failing all the year round, is bound to kill you when you give birth. If you die, do you think your daughter will live? Heh heh heh, I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you.
Chen Zhirong is really crazy.
Luo Xue was quiet, and her eyes gradually became empty again.
When Chen Zhi-rong finished, Luo Xue looked at Mu Hongyuan and said, “Husband, I died so miserably. You have to redress my grievances..”
Wang Hsueh-shuang was completely stunned: “Zhi-rong, you..”
Chen Zhirong kept screaming, completely unable to recover from such a situation.
Mu Hongyuan’s face was exceptionally calm.
Mu Lan looked at Mu Hongyuan, in such circumstances, she has forced Mu Hongyuan to no way to go, but obviously, Mu Hongyuan’s reaction has been beyond Mu Lan’s expectations.
But Mu Lan’s mind is not on Mu Hongyuan’s body, but on the soul of Luo Xue not far away.
Luo Xue seemed to notice Mu Lan’s eyes and looked over, but there was a trace of helplessness and desolation in his eyes.
Mu Lan twisted eyebrows, in such eyes, she actually saw Ji Niang.
The sudden appearance of Luo Xue’s soul, to now Mu Lan has not been able to peep into the mystery, too real, real not like a person, as if a person with the same spiritual power as himself, with illusion.
Unlike the ghosts that have appeared in the East Building several times before.
She knew that it was Ji Niang who did it.
But now
Mu Lan suddenly came to his senses, and Luo Xue looked at Mu Lan’s eyes even more desolate. Before
Mu Lan could open her mouth, Ji Niang’s voice came from her mind, very weak, and even the ghosts in front of her had hallucinations, as if a gust of wind would disappear from the front of everyone.
Young lady, I can’t hold on. In a short time, everything in front of you will disappear completely. If you don’t hurry up, everything will be over. Wang Ye didn’t mean to kill the side imperial concubine.
In the end, Ji Niang’s voice became weaker and weaker.
Sure enough, Luo Xue’s fooling around was not as solid as before, and it became more and more illusory.
Mu Lan takes a deep breath.
But Mu Hongyuan’s voice came calmly: “Hurry up, invite the master to the palace immediately. There must be no ghost theory in the palace.”
Mu Zhantian came to his senses and said, “I’ll send someone to do it right away.”
Then, Mu Zhantian looked at Chen butler, Chen butler simply can not refuse, can only passively look at Mu Lan, and then hurried out of the dungeon.
When Chen’s housekeeper went out, her footsteps also stumbled.
Mu Lan smiled in a low voice, such laughter with a trace of gloom, and then looked at Mu Zhantian’s eyes without any emotion, cold and ruthless. When it
fell on Mu Hongyuan, Mu Lan calmly said, “Dad, is this what you want to do?”
Mu Hongyuan was stunned.
“How do you want your mother’s spirit in heaven to deal with herself?”? Are you going to lock Niang up in the 18 layers of hell and never turn over again? Mu Lan is questioning Mu Hongyuan.
“Lan Er..” Mu Hongyuan came to his senses and tried to defend himself.
“It’s just dad. I don’t think that’s what mom thinks.” Mu Lan opened his mouth coldly.
Not far from Luo Xue, the spirits of the dead, who had looked a little scattered, suddenly became United, and all the strength came to Chen Zhirong: “I want to kill you, kill you.”
Mu Hongyuan wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
Luo Xue looked at Mu Hongyuan’s eyes, full of resentment, is no longer before the affectionate pulse.
“Luo Xue.” Cried Mu Hongyuan.
Mu Zhantian and Mu Zhihua were shocked.
Wang Xueshuang seemed to be completely fainted by such a bloody picture in front of him, and no longer responded.
Li Mammy exclaimed, holding Wang Xueshuang, did not dare to hesitate, and immediately took Wang Xueshuang out of the dungeon in a hurry, but the gloomy atmosphere in the dungeon did not change.
Mu Zhantian came to his senses and rushed up. Something
even more astonishing happened. The sword that
had been safe and sound on Mu Zhantian’s body was suddenly unsheathed, as if he had a life, and went directly to Chen Zhirong.
Mu Zhantian was stunned and immediately wanted to take back his sword.
But he found that his hands were completely out of control.
Chen Zhirong was also dumbfounded.
Completely did not expect that the person who finally gave himself a fatal blow was Mu Zhantian.
She stared at the sword to his throat, even without any hesitation, directly pierced, Chen Zhirong did not even have a chance to speak, staring eyes fell down.
How can not close their eyes, how can not think of one day, such a thing will happen to their own body.
And the dungeon became silent in an instant.
Only Luo Xue’s giggle was left, which made people feel more and more nervous.
“Good death.” Luo Hsueh’s face, which was already almost transparent, gradually began to smile. “It’s good to be dead. I won’t be lonely down there.”
Slowly, Luo Xue’s voice became lighter and lighter, and her figure became more and more blurred.
Gradually, the ghost of Luo Xue disappeared in front of everyone, but the sad laughter still lingered in everyone’s ears for a long time.
It seems that after Luo Xue disappeared, everything returned to normal.
Mu Zhantian’s hand can control himself.
His body trembled a little, and he could hardly believe what he had done. The next moment, Mu Zhantian threw his sword down, and the whole man stumbled.
“Big brother, you killed your mother..” Mu Zhihua screamed. For the first time,
Mu Zhantian felt frightened. “No, I didn’t. It was Luo Xue. She killed Niang. She killed Niang with my hands.”
Mu Hongyuan closed his eyes.
Such an outcome, no one thought, first stop but can not stop, his palm tightly clenched into a fist, and then looked at the original beautiful Chen Zhirong fell in a pool of blood.
Eyes open, even to the last moment of death, with panic, completely unable to break away from such a situation.
“Give a lavish burial to the imperial concubine.” Mu Hongyuan came to his senses and ordered calmly word by word. The slaves
around him immediately moved, but when they approached Chen Zhirong, they still looked frightened, fearing that in the next moment, the ghost of Luo Xue would come back to claim his life.
And Mu Lan seems to be severely stimulated by such a picture, the obvious stagger. “What’s the matter with you,
young lady?”
“Hexiang, take me back.” Mu Lan calmed down and explained the lotus fragrance word by word.
But superfluous words, Mu Lan did not say again, even Mu Lan did not look at the people present, turned and walked toward the outside of the dungeon.
She can’t go on like this.
With an illusion, will let Mu Lan’s spirit is almost exhausted, the more powerful the illusion, the more so, and this time, Mu Lan is not only using the illusion to control the sword in the hands of Mu Zhantian, but also to maintain the spirit of Luo Xue created by Ji Niang before everything ends. Under the
double stimulation, Mu Lan could not stand it.
If you continue to stay here, the next person who vomits blood and dies will be yourself.
That kind of bloody constantly rushed up the feeling, but also with the more obvious, Mu Lan tightly grasp the lotus fragrance said, steady pace, fast toward the dungeon mouth.
He Xiang also felt that Mu Lan was abnormal, and she dared not breathe. She held Mu Lan carefully and said, “Young lady, please slow down.”
And the people in the dungeon didn’t think much of it.
Mu Zhantian and Mu Zhihua were in a stunned dispute.
Mu Hongyuan took a look and said nothing.
After all, such a picture, for a girl’s family, appears to be bloody and frightened, not to mention, the person who appeared or Mu Lan’s mother and concubine, so Mu Lan’s reaction now for Mu Hongyuan, is also considered normal.
When Mu Lan went out, Chen butler had already hurried in with the master.
The two passed by each other.
See such a picture, the master’s face is also frightened for a moment, there is no reaction, his eyes subconsciously fell on the body of Mu Lan, Mu Lan looked back very coldly, the master immediately withdrew his eyes.
Mu Lan’s eyes are too cold.
Cold without a trace of temperature.
Such a cold, with the infiltration of hostility, it is surprising that people can not say a word.
“Release the princess, bury the side concubines, and clean up the place.” Mu Hongyuan ordered the master in a cold voice.
The master came to his senses and answered repeatedly.
After that, Mu Hongyuan told the housekeeper, “You take the eldest lady back. I’m afraid the eldest lady will be frightened tonight. Find a doctor to take a look at the eldest lady.”
“Yes.” Chen butler dare not neglect.
He caught up with Mu Lan in two or three steps.
Mu Lan didn’t say anything. The pace
at the foot is not fast, but the lotus fragrance holding Mu Lan has been able to clearly feel the instability of Mu Lan’s body.
At the moment when Mulan walked out of the dungeon, the sweet feeling came to his mind and he could no longer control it. The next moment, Mulan spat blood out of his mouth and coughed desperately. The face, which was already
pale, now looked like a blank sheet of paper, and even looked like it was gradually becoming transparent. It’s very much
like Luo Xue, who made people feel nervous before. House
keeper Chen was stunned for a moment, and then immediately came to his senses: “Young lady, I’ll call a doctor for you right away.”
“No.” Mu Lan answered and quickly grabbed Chen’s hand. “Chen, get this place cleaned up quickly. Don’t mention to anyone that I’m vomiting blood.” House
keeper Chen twisted his eyebrows and said, “Young lady, but you’re like this..”
“No buts.” Mu Lan said directly. The butler
Chen looked at Mu Lan’s eyes and immediately nodded: “The slave knows.”
Mu Lan did not say anything, Ren Hexiang helped himself toward the snow building, along the way, Hexiang nervously looked at Mu Lan, but Mu Lan appeared to be much more calm.
But Mu Lan’s face has never been any ease. He leaned
almost all his strength on Hexiang.
After entering Luoxue Lou, Hexiang wanted to send Mu Lan into the room. As a result, Mu Lan only glanced at the door, which was still closed, and then said lightly, “You don’t have to go in.”. Anyone who wants to come will say that I have rested, and that other things will be discussed tomorrow.
“Young lady, you are like this..” Hexiang is not at ease.
“Get out.” Mu Lan’s voice did not have any compromise, also lacked the previous good temper.
Some things, Mu Lan will not let the lotus fragrance know, the lotus fragrance knows too much, does not have the advantage. Secondly, Li Shiyu was still in the house, and when he saw Li Shiyu, he would scream in amazement.
Don’t ask why Mulan knows.
It seems that as long as you are close to Luoxuelou, you can smell the faint sandalwood fragrance on Li Shiyu’s body. The man never left.
Before he hurried from the snow building, Li Shiyu has been waiting in the snow building. What else
did Hexiang want to say? Then she looked at Mulan’s sullen face and finally nodded, “The maidservant knows.”. If the young lady has something to do, she can call the maidservant at any time.
Mu Lan hum.
Lotus incense did not dare to stay again, quickly toward his room, Mu Lan stood in place for a while, until the figure of lotus incense disappeared from his front, Mu Lan pushed the door and entered.
……
Sure enough, the moment Mu Lan walked into the house, he saw Li Shiyu’s figure, Li Shiyu’s eyes fell on Mu Lan’s body, the first time he realized something was wrong.
The next moment, Li Shiyu moved in front of Mu Lan: “What happened?”
Mu Lan did not open his mouth, but waved Li Shiyu away and walked toward the bed, but in such a pace, Mu Lan still appeared to stagger, and even wanted to pretend to be calm in front of Li Shiyu could not do it. The
spirit of the serious overdraft, so that the next second Mu Lan will fall in front of Li Shiyu.
“Mu Lan.” Li Shiyu called Mu Lan. Ignoring Li Shiyu,
Mu Lan waved her hand and pushed the man away. She didn’t want to show any timidity in front of Li Shiyu. “If it’s all right, your Highness, please go back.”. In the still of the night, with such a big incident in the palace, I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for Your Highness to stay here.
Mu Lan said directly word by word.
Even, Mu Lan did not look at Li Shiyu. How could
Li Shiyu be such an easy person to deal with? His eyes narrowed slightly and fell heavily on Mu Lan. “Is Chen Chih-jung dead?”
Mu Lan nodded.
This is nothing to hide, even if tonight Li Shiyu does not know what happened in the dungeon, the next day the news of Chen Zhirong’s death will spread throughout Kyoto.
After all, Mu Wang Fu’s side imperial concubine passed away, no matter how to look at Chen Zhirong this person, there will be people to mourn, not to mention Chen Zhirong behind the Chen family. It
‘s not so easy to finish what you started. After
being stirred up by Mu Lan, everyone’s attention will not be on Mu Lan, but anxious to clean up the mess. There is no harm
to Mu Lan.
A lot of it is to strike while the iron is hot.
Li Shiyu saw that Mu Lan did not deny, slightly twisted eyebrows, but did not open his mouth to ask what, he in the pace of Mu Lan, has clearly seen the anomaly of Mu Lan at the moment.
Mu Lan did not want to show weakness.
But the physical overdraft made it impossible for Mu Lan to continue.
The next moment, Mu Lan softened his heels.
And Li Shiyu the first time to protect Mu Lan in his arms, quickly brought to the bed, and then, he grabbed Mu Lan’s pulse, and then Li Shiyu’s face changed.
Mu Lan’s pulse was so weak that he could not grasp it at all, as if a person did not exist at all.
Even Li Shiyu did not doubt that the next second Mu Lan would disappear from his face.
He did not speak, sullen, put Mu Lan on the bed, never leave the guard, his hand is always holding Mu Lan’s hand, warm palm wrapped in Mu Lan almost in the cold palm, the heat gradually passed, until Mu Lan’s face began to have room for manoeuvre.
However, Mu Lan seemed to be in a coma and never woke up again. Even
the face gradually began to recover, the body is no longer cold, the whole person followed the porcelain solid up, also did not open his eyes.
Li Shiyu did not speak and stayed quietly at the bedside.
Such a picture, let Li Shiyu frown, think of what, but can not believe, finally, he kept silent.
After Li Shiyu was sure that Mu Lan had fallen asleep and would not wake up in a short time, Li Shiyu flew out of the back door of the Snow Tower and instantly disappeared in the palace.
There are some things that Li Shiyu can’t ask from Mu Lan.
But it can be explored from the palace.
Sure enough, Li Shiyu did not come out for long, has been off and on to connect this matter together.
Luo Xue’s soul returned to the palace, by Mu Zhantian’s sword completely ended Chen Zhirong’s life, the whole Mu Lan stood, did not make a hand.
And the slaves in the palace were obviously frightened. When these things are mentioned in
private, the fear is obvious.
The whole palace also fell into a dead silence. In
the dungeon, the master is crossing over the soul of Luo Xue. The ringing bell is constantly coming from the palace. In the quiet night, such ringing bell makes people shudder.
And Chen Zhirong’s body has also been moved out, Li Shiyu stood in the corner, did not open his mouth to say a word.
His eyes flashed a trace of shock, and then Li Shiyu quietly turned his head and quickly returned to the snow building.
…… Mu Lan is still sleeping in
the
snow falling building.
Rather than say that Mu Lan is sleeping, it is better to say that Mu Lan seems to be recuperating, everything before has exhausted the spirit of Mu Lan, so that Mu Lan no longer has the strength to open his eyes.
Li Shiyu’s hand took Mu Lan’s pulse from time to time.
At least now Mu Lan’s pulse is much more stable than before, unlike before, it is illusory like a person who does not exist.
But Li Shiyu is still guarding every step.
Falling snow building, there is only a dim candlelight, in the next moment, the candlelight also with a gust of palm wind, completely extinguished, moonlight through the window edge of the gap, fell in the room. On the
bed, the tall figure sat motionless on the edge of the bed.
…… As the master rang the bell,
Mu Zhantian gradually came to his senses and looked at Mu Hongyuan, who was standing motionless. Mu Zhantian’s voice was almost gnashing his teeth: “Dad, all this must have been done by Mu Lan.”
There’s no reason. It’s an instinctive suspicion.
But Mu Zhantian has no evidence.
Why Luo Xue’s soul did not return to the palace for so many years, but after Mu Lan came back, Luo Xue’s soul followed back.
And Mu Zhantian followed Li Shiyuan for many years, is also a person who has seen the storm, for some strange art is also known.
Especially when his hand could not control himself, the sword pierced Chen Zhirong’s throat, and Mu Zhantian was almost more sure of such a guess.
“Mulan can’t stay.” Mu Zhantian said directly, “Dad, if you keep Mu Lan in the mansion, sooner or later something bigger will happen. Please make a decision as soon as possible.”
As if Mu Lan was forcing Mu Hongyuan to do it, but Mu Hongyuan delayed again and again.
At the moment, Mu Zhantian is also forcing Mu Hongyuan.
As a result, Mu Zhantian did not expect that one of Mu Hongyuan’s ears hit Mu Zhantian’s face, Mu Zhantian was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth oozed blood in an instant.
Mu Zhihua is even more frightened, before the panic has not been able to recover, one scene after another, to push Mu Zhihua to a dead end.
She was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground and remained motionless.
“Daddy” Mu Zhantian looked at Mu Hongyuan in disbelief.
Mu Hongyuan’s eyes became more and more gloomy: “Mu Zhantian, how did the king teach you? You are now in order to eradicate the dissidents, can you be desperate?”
Mu Zhantian was said by Mu Hongyuan can not reply, finally can only stand so passively, the muscles of the whole body tight, the palm of the hand mercilessly clenched into a fist, but dare not refute Mu Hongyuan’s words.
“Why do you want to kill Mulan? Don’t you know?” Mu Hongyuan scolded him in a cold voice. Under such circumstances, you don’t want to deal with the chaos in front of you for your own selfish interests. Besides, even if you really killed Mulan, how can you explain to the prince? Do you think the prince will finish well?
In a word, let Mu Zhantian wake up in an instant.
Now Mu Lan is the prince’s favorite.
If Mu Lan had an accident in Mu Wangfu, Mu Zhihua could not replace Mu Lan to enter the East Palace at all, but would implicate the whole Mu Wangfu.
With Li Shiyuan for many years, Mu Zhantian still knows Li Shiyuan’s temper very well.
Sinking, Mu Zhantian quieted down.
“Take care of your mother’s funeral first, and the Chen family has to find a reasonable reason.” Mu Hung-yuan also calmed down. “Otherwise, the Chen family will rebel, and sooner or later something will happen.”
“Yes.” Even if Mu Zhantian is not reconciled, he can only accept it first.
Zhan Tian. Those who can achieve great things must know how to give up. Mu Hongyuan looked at Mu Zhantian earnestly.
Mu Zhantian answered respectfully, “Zhantian must remember what my father taught me.” What happened
today is not allowed to come out of the palace. If anyone discusses this matter, I will put him out of business. Do you hear me? Mu Hung-yuan ordered darkly, “Let’s wait a few days for your mother’s affairs, and then say that she’s been hit by the wind recently, and the situation is not good.”
“Yes.” Mu Zhantian answered.
Then Mu Hongyuan turned and left the dungeon.
The dungeon is still gloomy, and the wind blows through it, which makes people’s hair stand on end.
……
At that time, it was already the fourth watch
outside the window of Luoxue Building. In the past, even if Li Shiyu stayed overnight, he would leave Mu Wangfu in the fourth watch. Today, Li Shiyu did not mean to leave, but just stayed quietly by the bed.
Mu Lan was completely motionless.
“Mulan?” Suddenly, Li Shiyu called in a low voice.
Mu Lan’s slender fingers moved, and his lips also moved, but before he could wake up, Li Shiyu reacted quickly and grabbed Mu Lan’s hand.
He lowered his body and twisted his eyebrows to listen to Mu Lan’s words.
“Water” Mu Lan’s voice came faintly.
Li Shiyu hum, released Mu Lan, stood up and poured a glass of water for Mu Lan, and then walked back to the side of Mu Lan, slightly lifted her up.
Soon, the cup was handed to Mulan’s lips.
Mu Lan closed his eyes and took small sips.
But it seems that every mouthful is much more difficult, after a while, Mu Lan desperately coughed up, Li Shiyu has not had time to react, and a mouthful of blood spit out.
Directly dirty Li Shiyu.
Li Shiyu’s brows twisted slightly: “Mu Lan.”
Mu Lan fainted again, but this time, Mu Lan leaned on Li Shiyu’s chest, motionless, Li Shiyu hesitated for a moment, and finally did not put Mu Lan down, but quietly hugged Mu Lan in his arms.
For a long time, Mu Lan was motionless.
Li Shiyu also maintained the same posture and remained motionless.
And Mu Lan’s Jingyuan seems to be gradually recovering, at least not like before, although asleep, but it gives people the feeling that Mu Lan does not exist in general.
In the fifth watch of the day, the sky outside gradually became clear, and Mu Lan opened his eyes from his coma in a trance.
She was quiet for a long time, and when she realized that she was in Li Shiyu’s arms, Mu Lan was surprised.
“Your Highness, you..” Mu Lan opened his mouth with difficulty, and every word seemed extremely laborious.
Then, Mu Lan retreated from Li Shiyu’s arms and kept a safe distance from Li Shiyu, but Mu Lan’s face was still ugly and pale.
Li Shiyu sees Mu Lan’s movement, also only twists the eyebrow, did not say anything, looked at Mu Lan quietly, but looked at Mu Lan’s eyes actually to appear sharp many.
As if to thoroughly penetrate Mu Lan.
Mu Lan sat calmly on the bed.
Li Shiyu suddenly stood up, and Mu Lan’s nerves tightened in an instant, while Li Shiyu just picked up his cloak from the edge of the bed and quietly put it on Mu Lan.
Mu Lan was stunned and did not speak for a moment.
Put it on. It is cold Li Shiyu is concise and comprehensive.
But in such a concise but slightly can hear Li Shiyu’s concern for Mu Lan, although weak, but also the real existence. Pure and simple, without
a trace of purpose.
Mu Lan was quiet and did not refuse.
When Li Shiyu tied the belt of his cloak for Mu Lan, their hands inevitably touched each other, and Mu Lan shrank and unnaturally hid his hands in his wide sleeves.
Instead, Li Shiyu bowed his head, chuckled, and suddenly jokingly scraped the tip of Mu Lan’s nose.
Mu Lan twisted his eyebrows and looked at Li Shiyu quietly.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen you so sick since I’ve known you.” Li Shiyu opened his mouth lightly, as if discussing today’s weather.
But Mu Lan is very clear, Li Shiyu is asking himself what happened in the palace of Mu Wang today.
Only the skin on the face, in the moment Li Shiyu brushed, the feeling of trembling also followed more and more obvious.
It’s a feeling of palpitation.
Looking at the man who had been guarding himself all night by the bed, Mu Lan’s heart suddenly warmed up, and then laughed softly.
“It was your Highness’s bad luck that he happened to see it.” Mu Lan’s mouth was unforgiving. “For the sake of the four lords who hate me so much, shouldn’t they take advantage of the situation to end me?”
“Well, it’s time to end it, so that what you say when you wake up will not be annoying.” Li Shiyu is not polite at all.
Mu Lan was silent.
Apart from bickering with Li Shiyu, Mu Lan knew very well that he was no match for Li Shiyu. The pain in
his throat, and the weakness of the moment, did not allow Mulan to say too much.
Now Mu Lan seems to be all right. But Mu Lan is very clear, her every movement, even said every word, are enough to consume their own energy. There was so much noise
last night that she wanted to recover, and she needed at least a week’s rest.
It seems that Mu Lan has never met such a situation since he discovered his power.
Even in the dream, Mu Lan is a time to meet a variety of different pictures, some pictures, or Mu Lan do not understand.
All kinds of people in fancy clothes.
But those people make Mu Lan feel particularly close.
There are a lot of inexplicable pictures, so fast that Mu Lan can not catch, but also can not see what happened in the end. It
‘s obviously a rest, but it’s more exhausting than ever.
Li Shiyu did not care about Mu Lan’s quiet, he naturally put a pillow behind Mu Lan’s waist, so that Mu Lan would not be so uncomfortable.
Then Li Shiyu looked at Mu Lan and said, “Has your mother’s soul come back?”
Mu Lan hum, also did not explain too much.
Some things except impossible to let Li Shiyu know, Mu Lan also does not want to open the mouth to explain too much, besides, also cannot explain clearly.
“Mu Lan.” Li Shiyu suddenly called out Mu Lan’s name. “How much do you know about Ji Niang?”
Mu Lan did not answer, but looked at Li Shiyu with some vigilance.
Li Shiyu looked down at Mu Lan from a commanding position and suddenly said without thinking, “Ji’s surname is very rare in Dazhou.”. But close to the generation of Yue, there was a surname Ji. It’s just that this surname is a family of witches in the Yue generation. It was only a few decades ago that all the witches with the surname of Ji would be killed.
Mu Lan didn’t think of that.
But she thought of that Luo Xue’s fantasy, and what Ji Niang said to herself, under such circumstances, it was really impossible for an ordinary person to do it.
This made Mu Lan narrow his eyes.
“What happened in the palace last night was not real, it was a fantasy.” “As for how this illusion came about, don’t you have any idea now?” Li Shiyu asked calmly.
Mu Lan did not answer, looking at Li Shiyu. Whether this fantasy is Ji Niang or not, Mu Lan can not betray Ji Niang, if there is no Ji Niang last night, Chen Zhirong will not be able to tell the truth, nor can he die violently.
Ji Niang knows illusions. If I guess correctly, Ji Niang should be a descendant of the Ji clan. It’s just that the king is curious about how Ji Niang survived after the Ji clan were all beheaded. Every word of Li Shiyu could not be more clean.
Mu Lan bit his lip and lowered his head.
“So you told Ben Wang about this reaction, but you didn’t know?” Li Shi-yu had already reached in front of Mu Lan and reached out his hand to hook Mu Lan’s mandible. “You’re not someone you’ve always trusted because you know everything, but now you suddenly believe that a person who doesn’t know anything is not afraid of getting into trouble?”.
“No.” For a long time, Mu Lan answered.
Li Shi-yu chuckles: “You’re sure.”
Mu Lan ignored Li Shiyu’s words.
In Li Shiyu’s words, Mu Lan had already guessed that Li Shiyu knew clearly what had happened in the palace last night. Li Shiyu suspected Ji Niang, but did not suspect himself.
Mu Lan did not know whether to breathe sigh of relief or to tighten his nerves.
Then Mu Lan looked out of the window at the sky, and then at Li Shiyu: “Your Highness, it’s going to be bright soon, and the palace is guarded all night. If you don’t leave, aren’t you afraid of being caught?”
“Are you concerned about the king?” Li Shiyu raised his eyebrows.
Mu Lan is calm: “Last night, your Highness took care of you all night. Mu Lan is not an unintentional person. Naturally, he will also think about your Highness, so that your Highness will not be implicated innocently.”
“You’ve cleaned things up.” Li Shiyu seemed to smile.
Mu Lan did not speak again. Only then did
Li Shiyu stand up, and when Mu Lan saw Li Shiyu stand up, the tension in his eyebrows and eyes relaxed, and he was really afraid that Li Shiyu would stay here.
Besides, today, she must go to see Ji Niang.
Some things, Mu Lan still have to ask Ji Niang.
“Give birth to your children, and take leave of the king.” Li Shiyu nodded, and his expression had returned to coldness.
“Thank you, Your Highness, for remembering.” What Mu Lan said is formulaic.
Soon, Li Shiyu turned to leave from the window, Mu Lan just looked, did not say anything, but her nerves have been tense, until Li Shiyu left the snow building, Mu Lan followed to relax down.
But only for a moment, Mu Lan stood up.
But the moment she stood up, the feeling of weakness in the soles of her feet followed, and she had no strength at all.
Want to appear in front of Ji Niang at such a time, I’m afraid Mu Lan can’t even walk past.
Mu Lan is a little weak. The
sky outside the window gradually turned white.
Suddenly, the quiet snow building has come from the movement, which makes Mu Lan’s eyebrows slightly twisted up.
“Mingyan, it’s not that I won’t let you in, it’s that the eldest lady has told you that no one can disturb her, even if the prince comes.” Hexiang looked at Mingyan in embarrassment.
Mingyan was the maidservant beside Ji Niang, and the lotus fragrance naturally recognized her.
But Ming Yan and Ji Niang, are very low-key, almost no sense of existence in the palace, but also never left the South Tower to take the initiative to find anyone, so now the cold appearance in the Luo Xue building, the lotus fragrance naturally feel strange up.
It’s just that Mulan’s orders can’t be done.
So Hexiang stopped in front of Mingyan and didn’t let Mingyan go in.
Mingyan, however, was particularly worried: “I must see the eldest lady. Hexiang, you help me to send a message, saying that the fourth lady wants to see the eldest lady, and I want the eldest lady to see me.”
Hexiang looked embarrassed.
Just then, Mu Lan’s voice came from the room: “Lotus fragrance, let Ming Yan come in.”
Mingyan obviously breathed a sigh of relief, but Hexiang heard Mu Lan’s voice and then opened her mouth: “Mingyan, you go in.”. But the eldest lady was frightened yesterday and her condition was not very good, so don’t delay the eldest lady too long.
“I know.” Mingyan answered.
Hexiang pushed the door open, and Mingyan soon disappeared into the room.
At this moment, the sky is only slightly white, but not bright. Inside
Prince Mu’s mansion, the sound of chanting was everywhere, and it lasted for a long time.
……
Inside the room
, Mu Lan was still leaning against the bed. Although her complexion looked much better, she was obviously lacking in energy. When she looked at Ming Yan again, Mu Lan nodded and motioned, “Ming Yan, how is the fourth lady?”
When Mingyan saw Mulan, she respectfully said, “Mingyan has seen the eldest lady.”
Mu Lan did not say anything, but motioned to Mingyan to get up.
Soon, Mingyan began to explain, “Fourth Mistress’s condition deteriorated last night, but instead of letting Mingyan go to the doctor, she let Mingyan come to you.”
Mu Lan was quiet and did not speak, but in the bright words, Mu Lan could already be sure that all the illusions of last night were from the hands of Ji Niang.
Just like if you use a power, you will lose a lot of energy.
Not to mention, Ji Niang spent so much energy doing this.
Besides, Ji Niang herself was injured.
Her condition is not much better, Ji Niang is even more so.
And Li Shiyu’s words appeared in Mu Lan’s mind, Mu Lan for the first time had doubts about the identity of Ji Niang, Ji Niang is really a member of the Ji clan?
Then why did Ji Niang appear in Prince Mu’s mansion?
“Besides, what else is going on with Chi Niang?” Mu Lan came to his senses and asked Mingyan.
Mingyan did not dare to hide it: “These days, the situation of the Fourth Lady is not very good, and it is even worse than before. It seems that she has never been sober, but last night she was not able to do it all of a sudden.”. But the Fourth Mistress asked me to take this to the young lady.
Then Mingyan took out an envelope from her waist and handed it to Mulan.
Mu Lan quietly took over and immediately opened it to see. On the
note was a simple sentence: “Three days at the most, everything is fine.” After reading it,
Mu Lan handed the note to the candle and burned it into ashes.
Now under such circumstances, Mu Lan can not go to find Ji Niang, Ji Niang is also very clear, so let Mingyan personally come, or in this time.
And the meaning of the note, Ji Niang expressed very clearly.
According to Ji Niang’s current trend, at most three days, Ji Niang will let herself die.
And all is well, is to tell Mu Lan, last night, even if hurt Ji Niang, but will not hurt the muscles and bones, Mu Lan’s timely action, so that Ji Niang’s all arrangements are not in vain.
“I see.” It was a long time before Mu Lan spoke.
Mingyan, on the other hand, did not stay in the Snow Tower. She could also see that Mulan was tired. “Then the maidservant won’t bother the eldest lady. The maidservant will leave first.”
Mu Lan hum.
As Mingyan turned to leave, Mulan stopped her and said, “Please tell the Fourth Lady that she can rest assured.”
“The maidservant knows.” Mingyan answered respectfully.
“The doctor will come during the day and tell him the truth about the Fourth Mistress.” Mu Lan explained carefully.
“Yes.” If
there is any problem, you can come to me directly. But try to avoid crowds.
“Yes.”
…… After
Mu Lan’s careful explanation, Mingyan left in a hurry, and when Mingyan left, the sky gradually brightened up, Mu Lan was exhausted, but there was no sleepiness at all.
She was sitting at the table in her cloak. The feeling of weakness in the soles of the
feet still swept in waves, which made Mu Lan breathless.
For a long time, it was not until the lotus fragrance came in that Mu Lan recovered from such a mood.
“Is there any movement in the palace?” Mu Lan calmly asked the lotus fragrance.
He Xiang was worried, but Mu Lan said, “Young lady, you must take care of yourself now. Your face is too pale. Your maidservant is afraid to see you.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Mu Lan shook his head. “I was scared last night. It’s been like this for the past few days. When someone comes to see me, they say I’m not feeling well and I haven’t been seen.”
“Yes.” He Xiang answered.
Mulan coughed a few times, and Hexiang hurriedly supported Mulan.
Mu Lan spent a lot of effort to pack up their own, and then, Ren Hexiang to dress themselves, but this day, Mu Lan did not go out from the snow building.
He Xiang went back and forth several times, talking about the situation in the palace.
Said that the master exorcised ghosts in the palace, Mu Zhihua was obviously frightened, and did not dare to live in the East Building, for fear of being found by the ghost of Luo Xue, but went directly to the ancestral temple.
Mu Zhantian and Mu Hongyuan are busy.
He Yan never left the South Tower with Mu Mian.
Mu Zhanxiao never came back, has been in the palace.
But Chen Zhirong’s death did not spread out at the first time, but said that Chen Zhirong was seriously ill. Naturally, the people of the Chen family did not believe it and came to the door. Mu Hongyuan said that Chen Zhirong was infected with dysentery and could be infected. The people of the Chen family were so worried. In addition, Mu Zhihua was not there, which made the people of the Chen family give up the idea of seeing Chen Zhirong. In the past decades, there has never been such a chaotic moment in the palace of
Prince Mu.
……
Into the night
Mu Lan slightly recovered, no longer need to lean on the bed all the time, at least walk freely up. But Mu Lan’s speed is not fast, still appears to be much slower.
She looked out the window at the moonlight.
The moonlight is getting heavier and heavier.
Today is not a full moon, and everything around is hidden in the moonlight.
In addition to what happened in the palace of Prince Mu, in the middle of the night, the slaves would not go out if they could not go out, so as to avoid encountering ghosts again.
Also because of this, so Mu Lan at this time to leave the snow to the South Tower, but become much safer.
She walked quietly in the night, although the pace is light, but the speed is not too slow.
But this is not a long distance, and so on Mu Lan walked to the time, unexpectedly also really sweat, that kind of weak feeling instantly came up again, and even some breathing is not smooth up.
Mu Lan stood quietly for a long time until he came to his senses. As soon as
she walked into the Snow Tower, she saw Mingyan coming out of Ji Niang’s room. Mu Lan was quiet, and Mingyan had already seen Mu Lan. Her face was startled, but she soon calmed down and took her into the South Tower without saying a word.
Then, Mingyan quietly closed the door, stood outside the door, and did not leave half a step.
Mu Lan did not speak, silently walked to Ji Niang’s bedside.
For Mingyan, Mu Lan did not dodge, because Ji Niang said that Mingyan was the only person in the house that she could trust, Ji Niang could trust, which naturally proved that Mingyan was no problem, just like lotus fragrance, so Mu Lan did not need to cover up. Go
all the way to Ji Niang’s bedside.
Ji Niang seemed to be asleep, lying on the bed, as if she did not know that Mu Lan was coming.
His face looked even paler than before.
Mu Lan’s eyebrows slightly twisted, such a pale is not put on, but the real existence, now Ji Niang seems to have fallen into a state of suspended animation, any doctor came, will feel that there is no way back.
Sink, Mu Lan picked up Ji Niang’s wrist, carefully felt the pulse.
Then Mu Lan’s eyes flashed a trace of surprise, soon, Mu Lan calmed down, Ji Niang’s pulse began to gradually become weak, this is not a good thing.
Such weakness continues, Ji Niang will not persist for too long.
Inexplicably, Mu Lan thought of the illusion of Luo Xue that night.
If it is really Ji Niang so-called, in the case of serious injury, but also to create such a phantom, now the accident can also explain the pain.
Quiet, Mu Lan quickly pulled out the silver needle and inserted it into several acupoints of Ji Niang.
Mu Lan’s forehead was covered with sweat.
Ji Niang didn’t mean to wake up.
It was not until Ji Niang’s body was full of silver needles that Mu Lan slightly brushed the sweat from her forehead and then looked at Ji Niang.
Originally pale and always in a coma, Ji Niang woke up slowly, but the fatigue in her eyebrows and eyes was still obvious.
Mu Lan grabbed Ji Niang’s hand. “Ji Niang, it’s me, Mu Lan.”
Ji Niang opened her eyes and looked at Mu Lan. Then she nodded, “Young lady.”
“Don’t say anything. If I ask, you can just nod or shake your head.” Mu Lan said directly, preventing Ji Niang from speaking next.
After all, in the case of a great loss of vitality, even such a simple action as speaking can make people take pains.
As a result, Ji Niang shook her head.
Mu Lan’s eyes slightly narrowed, holding Ji Niang’s hand and did not loosen, but in the place touched between the fingers, but suddenly aware of Ji Niang’s original weak pulse gradually began to activate up.
But Mu Lan’s surface is always calm.
Ji Niang, struggling to get up from the bed, said, “I don’t have to worry about me.”
Mu Lan did not speak, quietly waiting for Ji Niang to say.
“How is the young lady?” Ji Niang looked at Mu Lan and looked at her carefully.
“Not bad.” Mu Lan gave the answer. The
rest of the words, Mu Lan did not say much.
Ji Niang nodded and didn’t ask much. Then she went on, “Last night, if I hadn’t been unable to hold on, I wouldn’t have implicated the eldest lady.”
Ji Niang obviously did not intend to hide Mu Lan’s own affairs.
Mu Lan looked at Ji Niang quietly for a moment. “Is Ji Niang a member of the Ji clan of the State of Yue?”
Ji Niang did not admit or deny it, but the attitude in her eyebrows and eyes had already given the answer. Mu Lan nodded and then went on to say, “So during this time, my mother’s ghost was not played by you, but created by your illusion. That’s why it’s so lifelike, isn’t it?”
“Yes.” Ji Niang didn’t deny it.
Mu Lan got the answer, but it was not surprising.
Just like when she uses powers, it always takes a long time to recover her original energy. And last night, Mu Lan is only a moment of power, and Ji Niang has lasted for a long time, so there is such a situation, it is not surprising.
“So the young lady can rest assured that I’m all right.” Chi-niang coughed a few times. “I just need to rest. I’m in a state of suspended animation ahead of time.”
Mu Lan nodded: “This is better, the doctor will not suspect.”. Has the day doctor been here?
“I’ve been here.” Ji Niang answered.
The next couple of days, the doctor will come and strike while the iron is hot. Chen Chih-jung died, and Wang Yeh said to the outside world that Chen Chih-jung had dysentery, so it was taboo for a few days. After two days, if you take the medicine I gave you, I will send you out. Mu Lan confessed. The reason for
this, Mu Lan need not say more. Since
Chen Zhirong is dysentery, then Ji Niang can also be.
This is not a bad thing for Mu Hongyuan. It is also convincing to
say it.
Plus Mu Hongyuan disposed of the slaves who panicked in the dungeon last night, everything became justified, at least Mu Hongyuan had an account for the Chen family, so he would not care too much about Ji Niang’s death.
Not to mention that Ji Niang has never been favored by Mu Hongyuan.
“Ji Niang remembers.” Ji Niang listened carefully to Mu Lan’s words and nodded.
Mu Lan didn’t say anything. “I’ll leave first. I shouldn’t stay here much longer during this time. Ji Niang, you have to be careful. If you have something to do, let Ming Yan inform me.”. I will come again tomorrow with the doctor.
“Good.” Ji Niang answered.
Then, Mu Lan nodded to stand up, toward the South Tower, and did not stay in the South Tower, Ji Niang watched Mu Lan leave, very quiet lying down, quietly as if Mu Lan had never come.
And Ji Niang’s previous sobriety seemed to be a flash in the pan.
She fell into a coma again. Inside the
south building, it was as quiet as a needle falling on the ground, which made people hear clearly.
Mu Lan and Ming Yan nodded their heads and said carefully, “Don’t let people who have nothing to do with you disturb the Fourth Lady. Do you understand?”
“The maidservant obeys.” Mingyan answered respectfully.
Then Mu Lan left, Ming Yan also did not see off, and soon re-disappeared into the South Tower, and Mu Lan along the way, quietly toward the direction of the snow building.
In the middle of the journey, Mu Lan secretly cried out in his heart that it was not good.
I didn’t expect to meet Mu Zhantian at such a time.
And there aren’t many places to dodge nearby.
Mu Zhantian’s suspicion is extremely heavy, if really discovered by Mu Zhantian, the next thing will be more trouble, Mu Zhantian will inevitably suspect Ji Niang’s body.
Mu Lan’s brain works very fast.
At this time
, suddenly, there was a movement on the eaves, originally directed at Mu Lan came Mu Zhantian, eyebrows a twist, immediately jumped onto the eaves, chasing the voice away.
Mu Lan breathed a sigh of relief in an instant.
With her present speed and strength, it was impossible to escape from Mu Zhantian’s hands.
Subconsciously, Mu Lan looked in the direction of the eaves.
Mu Zhantian has apparently been taken away.
Mu Lan did not dare to stay more, quickly in the night, returned to the snow building, quietly silent, even the lotus fragrance did not find Mu Lan left.
But Mu Lan did not have any sleepiness.
She stood at the edge of the window.
The mind is stuck in the past.
That touch of figure, even if Mu Lan turned into ashes, it was Li Shiyu. It was Li Shiyu who led Mu Zhantian away.
And since Mu Lan was injured, Li Shiyu will appear every night in the snow building, the two rarely talk, but Li Shiyu will carefully give Mu Lan medicine.
Then Li Shiyu will drive Mu Lan to rest, Mu Lan also did not pay attention to Li Shiyu, will soon fall asleep, even do not know when Li Shiyu left.
Every day, when Mu Lan wakes up, the house is always quiet, and Li Shiyu’s figure can no longer be seen, leaving only a faint sandalwood fragrance on his body. Smells
good.
And tonight
Mu Lan’s palm slightly clenched into a fist, obviously began to feel tired, but she was motionless, eyes did not move.
Suddenly, a burst of warm strength came from Mu Lan’s waist. Before she
could react, Mulan was picked up at the waist and walked directly in the direction of the bed. She did not exclaim, because in her nose, Mulan had smelled the familiar sandalwood fragrance.
That Li Shiyu.
“Wait for me?” Li Shiyu put Mu Lan on the bed and opened his mouth neither salty nor light.
It was a sudden feeling of being seen through, which made Mu Lan a little uncomfortable. She didn’t answer Li Shiyu’s question, but seemed to look around and say to him, “Was the person before you the Fourth Royal Highness?”.
Li Shiyu hum, did not deny Mu Lan’s guess.
Then Li Shiyu took out the ointment and naturally put medicine on the wound of Mu Lan’s neck. When the cold toothpaste came, Mu Lan could not help hissing.
It is a kind of cold with a comfortable feeling.
But Mu Lan can not deny that the things sent by Li Shiyu are always the best, and the scars that look hateful are gradually fading under such circumstances.
Even He Yuyi, who came to the mansion every day to check, was amazed when he saw it.
Mu Lan explained that it was much simpler, because he was young, so he recovered quickly, but he did not say anything.
“Thank you.” Mu Lan’s tone is not warm, just a faint thank you.
Even all the process, Mu Lan did not open his mouth to ask one more question, Li Shiyu seems to be used to Mu Lan’s indifference, such a situation did not feel any wrong place.
He carefully put the medicine on Mulan, and then looked at Mulan with a cold tone: “Mulan, you have nine lives, and it’s not enough for you to play like this now.”
Mu Lan lowered his head and did not answer.
Li Shiyu directly pinched Mu Lan’s chin, half forcing Mu Lan to look at himself: “Knowing that Mu Zhantian suspects you, you still leave the Snow Tower at this time to go to the South Tower. Do you think you are walking very fast, or do you think you can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, or create illusions again?” Every word of
Li Shiyu is very sharp.
Mu Lan could not find a rebuttal, and his voice was not comfortable, so he finally kept silent.
“If the king hadn’t happened to be here today, would you know the result?” Li Shiyu sneered and then loosened Mu Lan.
As a result, Mu Lan calmly said, “I know.”
“You..” Li Shiyu was really angry and laughed. I laughed at
Mu Lan’s fearlessness.
He did not pay attention to Mu Lan, just so cold looking at Mu Lan, and then Li Shiyu stood up and left the snow building without looking back, leaving Mu Lan alone in the building.
Mu Lan did not speak either.
But to Li Shiyu’s understanding, Mu Lan is very clear, Li Shiyu is angry.
Mu Lan did not mean to explain. She and Li Shiyu are not relationships that need to be explained. They are just interests.
Even if Mu Lan really had an accident, she believed that Li Shiyu could easily pick himself clean.
Mu Lan sank, looking at himself in the bronze mirror, the scar on his neck is getting lighter and lighter, but the voice seems to have not been through.
This time, the vitality is badly damaged, and the recovery speed of the voice will be much slower.
Mu Lan closed his eyes slightly, a gust of wind blew, and the last candlelight in the snow-falling building went out. Then Mu Lan lay on the bed, unable to resist sleepiness any longer, and fell asleep.
But what Mu Lan did not know was that when he fell asleep, a tall figure never left from the falling snow, standing in a quiet corner outside the building, until the sky gradually brightened, Li Shiyu turned away.
……
The second day. When
Mu Lan woke up, the sky was already bright.
She took a look at the time, immediately turned over and got out of bed, because of the speed, Mu Lan is still a little dizzy, but compared with yesterday, has been much better.
But today’s Mulan is like a person who has no strength to tie a chicken, and has no ability to resist. As soon
as Mulan stood firm, Hexiang pushed the door open and rushed in. “Young lady, it’s not good.”
“What’s the matter?” Mu Lan’s tone is calm.
The Fourth Lady never woke up. Her pulse is getting weaker and weaker. In the morning, after seeing the fourth lady, the doctor was also frightened. Now Wang Ye has invited He Yuyi to the palace, and the old lady is also in the South Tower. Would you like to go and have a look? Hexiang quickly told Mulan what she knew.
Mulan was quiet for a moment. “Of course I want to go.”
Hexiang did not dare to hesitate, quickly washed Mu Lan, and then simply pulled up a bun, just casually inserted a hairpin, and then Hexiang held Mu Lan, even breakfast was useless, hurried to the South Tower. Compared
with Hexiang’s anxiety, Mu Lan seemed much calmer.
When Mu Lan arrived at the South Tower, the atmosphere of the South Tower was also low.
He Yan stood with Mu Mian, but did not go in. When he saw Mu Lan, he Yan nodded and motioned, but Mu Lan politely called out, “Third Lady.”
He Yan didn’t say anything.
Mu Mian was blessed and said, “Hello, sister.”
Mu Lan smiled warmly at Mu Mian.
Only then did Mu Lan look at Ho Yan and say, “Third Lady, I’ll go in and see what’s going on with Fourth Lady.”
He Yan sighed, still standing quietly in place, just shook his head, Mu Mian has always appeared quiet.
Mu Lan nodded, did not stay in place more, with the help of the lotus fragrance, has entered the South Tower, and the atmosphere in the room is even more depressed and depressed.
When Mu Lan came, the slaves knelt on the ground and paid their respects to Mu Lan. Mu Lan did not speak, brush sleeves to signal the slaves to stand up, she quietly walked in the direction of Ji Niang.
He Yuyi was feeling Ji Niang’s pulse, and her face was grave.
Wang Xueshuang anxiously looked at He Yuyi, Mu Hongyuan’s eyebrows were twisted up, the atmosphere in the room was depressed to the extreme, everyone dared not breathe.
Mu Lan naturally did not speak.
She looked at Ji Niang, the only person in the house who knew the truth was Mu Lan.
And at the moment of Ji Niang, pale and scary, he came to see Ji Niang in the middle of the night, but also let people feel terrible tight, Mu Lan’s eyes did not look at the edge of Ji Niang standing Mingyan, Mingyan nodded, but the eyes did not look at Mu Lan.
It’s like they never talked to each other.
But Mu Lan is very clear, the meaning in bright eyes.
Ji Niang is ready, everything is on schedule.
“Doctor Ho, how is Chi Niang doing?” This was asked by Mu Hongyuan himself.
Doctor Ho put Ji Niang’s hand down again and shook his head. His face was grave. “Wang Ye, get ready. I’m sorry for your loss.”. I’m afraid the Fourth Lady won’t be able to hold out much longer, either today or tomorrow. Even
the time, he Yuyi said directly.
In the view of He Yuyi, Ji Niang’s life is gossamer now.
Mu Hongyuan twisted his eyebrows, Wang Xueshuang’s expression was also somewhat sad, but Mu Lan stood without saying a word, appearing to be silent. The atmosphere in the
south building was a little lower.
It was not until Mu Hongyuan broke the silence that he said, “Doctor Ho, please come with the king.”
“Yes.” He Yuyi answered respectfully.
Soon, He Yuyi went out with Mu Hongyuan, Mu Lan looked at the figure of two people leaving, eyebrows and eyes flashed a trace of mystery, but did not say anything, and soon there was no trace of the line of sight back.
Wang Xueshuang sat, his eyes red, as if he had been hit hard. A
good Mu Wangfu, one after another, Wang Xueshuang some can not bear, looking at the bed of the sick Ji Niang, Wang Xueshuang face of the sadness has become more and more obvious.
“Old lady.” Mammy Li suddenly gave a cry of surprise.
Mu Lan was the first to walk over, not caring about his own weakness, and supported Wang Hsueh-shuang: “Grandmother.” Then she calmly ordered Ho-hsiang, “Hurry up and bring back Doctor Ho.”
Then, Mu Lan quietly felt the pulse of Wang Xueshuang.
In the previous life, Wang Xueshuang left less than a month after Mu Lan married into the palace. After all, Wang Xueshuang’s old age, coupled with the weakness of the body, if not for those precious medicinal materials to renew life, I am afraid to go earlier.
And this life, Mu Lan to Wang Xueshuang grasp the prescription inside, the natural symptomatic medicine in, Wang Xueshuang’s mental state can persist until now.
It’s not that Mu Lan has deep feelings for Wang Xueshuang, but that Wang Xueshuang can’t die now.
Wang Fu, Chen Zhirong died, Wang Xueshuang no object to trust, all the attention will be on the body of Mu Lan, this is a good thing for Mu Lan, not a bad thing.
Because Wang Xueshuang really stood beside Mu Lan, to avoid the sudden impact of Mu Hongyuan, and Mu Zhantian did whatever he wanted.
But Mulan knew very well that he could not reverse the situation, but was delaying as much time as possible.
She will use medicine to protect Wang Xueshuang, at least to make Wang Xueshuang conscious.
Soon, he Xiang came back in a hurry with He Yuyi, and Mu Hongyuan followed him in. This series of changes made Mu Hongyuan’s face look much more ugly.
Doctor Ho felt Wang Hsueh-shuang’s pulse in the South Tower. Wang Hsueh-shuang slowly woke up and waved his hand: “I’m not a big deal, but I’ve had a lot of things to do these days, and I’m a little tired.”
Mu Hongyuan is not at ease.
Mu Lan supported Wang Hsueh-shuang and told her to lean on him. “Grandmother, please wait for Doctor Ho to finish.” After a careful examination,
Dr. Ho nodded: “The old lady is really all right. She’s just been stimulated. Just have a good rest.” As he
spoke, Doctor Ho looked at Mu Lan with an admiring look on his face: “Thanks to the prescription that Miss Mu gave the old lady to calm her nerves, this is going to make me feel inferior.”
“Doctor Ho, I’m flattered.” Mu Lan is very calm. Only then did
Mu Hung-yuan look at Mu Lan and Dr. Ho in surprise. Dr. Ho explained with a smile, “Wang Yeh has found a treasure. Although Miss Mu is not a doctor, she has followed her adoptive mother’s prescription, and she has been able to treat the old lady’s condition. It is really Miss Mu’s credit that the old lady has been in good health during this period.” “Miss Mu is the old lady’s lucky star,” says
Dr. Ho, telling the truth.
Mu Lan was not complacent because of the words of He Yuyi, quietly holding Wang Xueshuang, did not say a word.
But Wang Hsueh-shuang came to her senses and patted Mu Lan’s hand: “Yes, thanks to Mu Lan.” Then
Mu Hung-yuan looked at Mu Lan and said, “Lan has worked hard.”
“No, this is what Lan’er should do.” Mu Lan is modest and courteous.
Soon, the soft sedan chair outside was already waiting in the South Tower. Mammy Li helped Wang Xueshuang onto the soft sedan chair. Instead of staying in the South Tower, she went back to the ancestral hall.
Mu Lan then stood up.
Obviously by Wang Xueshuang, Mu Lan is also a little dazed.
Mu Hung-yuan noticed, “All right, Hexiang, you take the eldest daughter back too. Take good care of the eldest daughter. Don’t let the eldest daughter worry too much.”
“Thank you, Daddy, for your concern.” Mu Lan answered.
Then she really did not stay in the south building, after nodding, followed the lotus fragrance to go out. Mu Lan has seen enough of the play in the
South Tower.
And the next thing, are also in the control of Mulan, she now has more important things to do.
After returning to Luoxuelou, Mu Lan did not use the flying pigeon to pass on the letter, but wrote the letter in person, but the full text let people see no clue, but Mu Lan is very clear, shopkeeper Wang see the name, she asked shopkeeper Wang to tell Rong Jiu, according to his previous orders to prepare.
So even if the lotus fragrance goes out, in case of being stopped, this letter is not a big problem.
He Xiang can explain that it is something related to himself, and he wants to ask someone to bring it to his parents in the countryside.
And Hexiang will not go to shops, but to teahouses.
Teahouse is Li Shiyu, naturally there will be no problems, inside and outside.
Under such circumstances, Mu Lan has to try his best to be foolproof.
Mu Lan handed the letter to He Xiang and said, “Remember what I told you. If you meet someone who has nothing to do with you, do you know what to do?”
“Young lady, you have told me several times. Don’t worry. The maidservant promises to finish the task.” Hexiang smiled niftily, with curved eyebrows and eyes.
Mu Lan also laughed in a low voice: “You are garrulous.”. Go ahead and be safe.
He Xiang hum, also did not say what, hide the letter to go out quickly.
Mu Lan looked at the figure of the lotus fragrance, quietly stood in the snow building for a while, and then turned back. These instructions are just in case, under such circumstances, Mu Zhantian really can not do anything.
That night, it was not Mu Zhantian who followed him, it was just an accident.
It’s just that being careful in everything is the best policy.
……
And in the palace of Prince Mu, it is always quiet. The changes in the
past few days have greatly damaged the vitality of Prince Mu’s mansion.
Ji Niang, as they had planned at first, and as the doctor said, in the morning of the second day, Ji Niang died, and there was no more sound. In
the south building, there was a lot of grief.
Mingyan knelt in front of Ji Niang’s bed, Ji Niang had no sound.
Doctor Ho stood up, shook his head, and looked at Mu Hongyuan, who was hurrying towards him. “Lord Mu, I’m sorry for your loss.”
Wang Xueshuang fell down yesterday and couldn’t get up, so the person who came over was Mammy Li. When
Mu Lan arrived, the atmosphere in the south building became more and more depressed, the slaves knelt on the ground, Mu Lan did not speak, quietly walked toward Ji Niang.
When passing by Mingyan, Mingyan nodded to Mu Lan.
Mu Lan did not say anything, without a trace of the eyes to move away.
“All right.” Mu Hongyuan said, “You all go down. The king wants to accompany the Fourth Lady alone.”
Mu Lan’s footsteps stopped, and then, without saying anything, he said, “Yes.”
Mu Lan also dismissed the slaves, left the south tower to Mu Hongyuan, quietly toward the south tower outside, Mingyan stood up, followed Mu Lan out.
For Mu Hongyuan’s sudden feelings, Mu Lan only felt ridiculed.
Ji Niang was the first concubine to marry into the palace. Others come second.
But after Mu Hongyuan snubbed Ji Niang, Ji Niang never got Mu Hongyuan’s attention again. Now that the beauty has gone, Mu Hongyuan seems to know his debt to the fourth lady. What’s the use of
such guilt.
If Ji Niang is good for Mu Hongyuan, I’m afraid Mu Hongyuan will give up Ji Niang at the first time.
Mu Lan looked a little sarcastic.
But Mulan didn’t leave.
Mingyan always followed Mu Lan’s side.
When they reached a sparsely populated area, Mulan lowered his voice and asked, “Are you ready?”
“Ready.” Mingyan answered, “Everything is waiting for the young lady’s orders.”
Mu Lan nodded: “According to the rules of the palace, Ji Niang will be buried in a crystal coffin for three days, and then she will be buried. The side concubines died violently, and they will not be buried at the same time as Ji Niang. Their specifications are also different.”
Mingyan answered.
Three days later, I’ll bring in the body I’ve prepared, and you can send Ji Niang to my place according to my request. I’ll arrange for someone to help you, but don’t cause any trouble. Remember to be careful in everything until you leave the palace. Mu Lan spoke in a low voice.
Yes. The maidservant knows. Mingyan stood respectfully. Then
Mu Lan looked at Ming Yan and said, “Ming Yan, what do you think of Ji Niang leaving the palace?”
Mingyan shook her head.
Mu Lan was quiet for a moment. “Would you like me to send you out of the house, too?”
Mingyan was overjoyed. She looked at Mulan and said, “The maidservant has thanked the eldest lady. If she can, the maidservant still wants to follow the fourth lady. The fourth lady rescued the maidservant. The fourth lady treats the maidservant like her own daughter. The maidservant naturally wants to go out with the fourth lady and take care of the fourth lady.”
Mulan nodded: “Wait for my news, you will leave the house later.”
“Yes.” Mingyan has a grateful face.
But Mu Lan did not say anything more and stood quietly in place.
Mu Wangfu people see Mu Lan standing like this also did not feel anything wrong, and Mu Lan get along with these months, they are clear, Mu Lan like quiet do not like to move, as long as it is a crowded place, Mu Lan will subconsciously avoid.
Now the south building is full of people, Mu Lan’s behavior is in line with Mu Lan’s consistent style.
Mu Hongyuan stayed in the south building for a long time and never came out.
The Dharma Master also came one after another, chanting sutras to release Ji Niang.
Mu Lan stood to almost lunch time, because of fatigue, this just turned back to the snow building, before leaving also did not forget to tell Chen housekeeper, if there is anything, the first time to inform themselves.
Chen butler repeatedly promised.
When Mu Lan returned to Luoxuelou, the lotus fragrance had already come back.
Without waiting for Mu Lan to open her mouth, He Xiang said quickly, “Young lady, the matter is settled.”. There was no accident on the way, and the letter you gave me has already been given to shopkeeper Wang.
“Good.” Mu Lan answered.
Then Mu Lan said nothing more.
Lotus fragrance also did not disturb Mu Lan, quietly retreated out.
Mu Lan leaned on the bed and closed his eyes to rest. Mu Lan never asked about what happened in the palace.
……
The second day.
As Mu Lan guessed, Mu Hongyuan publicized to the outside world that the side imperial concubine was infected with dysentery, and the fourth lady was seriously injured. In addition, she had a lot of contact with the side imperial concubine before, which made things worse, and they left one after another.
Including the people in the palace, Mu Hongyuan also explained this.
Even those who knew the truth on that day did not expose it.
Even the people who usually followed the side of the imperial concubine, as well as the slaves who went down to the dungeon that day, were all silenced by Mu Hongyuan. What happened in the dungeon completely became the secret of Mu Wangfu and would not be mentioned again.
The Chen family in such a speech, plus the death of Ji Niang, it is not good to make any more trouble.
Moreover, Chen Zhirong gave birth to a son and a daughter to Mu Hongyuan, so the Chen family eventually came to nothing. After all, the Chen family and Mu Wangfu are a community of interests. People in the same boat, no matter who is damaged, are of no benefit to each other. There is no better way to deal with it
than to avoid trouble.
These things are the lotus fragrance told Mu Lan, the lotus fragrance said vividly, Mu Lan is very quiet to listen.
After Hexiang had finished speaking, Mulan looked at her seriously and said, “Just say these words to me. You’re not allowed to say a word outside. Otherwise, you can’t save your life.”
“The maidservant knows.” Hexiang was somewhat frightened, and immediately bowed her head and answered earnestly.
Mu Lan nodded and coughed a few times.
Over the past few days, her voice has improved a lot, but because of the consumption of too much energy, the spirit has not fully recovered, so Mu Lan can not move.
“When will the Fourth Lady be buried?” Mu Lan answered.
“The day after tomorrow.” He Xiang replied, “Now the Fourth Lady is in the crystal coffin, and the slaves of the South Tower are keeping vigil in turn, and Ming Yan is following the Fourth Lady’s crystal coffin every step of the way.”. The fourth lady was also pitiful. She married into the palace but had no children. She almost regarded Mingyan as her own daughter. Now that the Fourth Mistress is gone, she knows where Mingyan is going.
Mu Lan nodded, and then she stood up.
He Xiang looked at Mu Lan and said anxiously, “Miss, your health is still not good. Where are you going? If you have something to deal with, you can let the maidservant do it.”
“I’ll go to the old lady.” Mu Lan opened his mouth lightly.
The lotus fragrance hears Mu Lan to say so, finally also did not say anything, then she immediately comes forward, holds Mu Lan, quietly walked out of the falling snow building.
Apart from the silence of the Snow Tower, the whole palace was still a sound of chanting sutras. The Dharma Master walked back and forth, and even here, he could hear it clearly.
Even Wang Xueshuang is chanting sutras in the ancestral temple these days.
It was not until she could hardly hold out that she was sent back to the house to rest.
At this time, Wang Xueshuang was still in the ancestral temple.
Mu Lan did not hesitate, in the company of the lotus fragrance, hurried toward the ancestral temple. When Mammy
Li saw Mu Lan, she was not surprised: “Young lady, the old lady is chanting in the ancestral temple. You can go in.”
Not even a briefing. In
the whole palace, the only person Wang Xueshuang wanted to see was Mu Lan.
So Wang Xueshuang had already told Mammy Li that if Mu Lan came, there would be no need to inform him and let Mu Lan come in directly. “Thank you, Mammy Li,” motioned
Mu Lan, nodding her head.
Then, she left the lotus incense outside the ancestral temple, toward the ancestral temple went in, when Mu Lan went in, Wang Xueshuang bowed his head and chanted, and did not speak.
Mu Lan stood quietly and did not open his mouth to disturb Wang Xueshuang.
It was not until Wang Xueshuang finished reading this scripture that he looked at Mu Lan and said, “Lan, you haven’t recovered yet. Why did you come to me again?”. There’s no peace in the palace now. You can’t have any more accidents. I can’t stand it.
“It won’t.” Mu Lan said with a smile, as if to appease Wang Xueshuang.
Wang Xueshuang nodded and finally sighed.
Then Wang Hsueh-shuang looked at Mu Lan and said, “By the way, why did Lan Er make a special trip here today?”
“Grandmother, Lan has something to discuss with her.” Mu Lan is not ambiguous, quietly looking at Wang Xueshuang.
Lan Er, just say it. Now Lan’er is in charge of everything in the mansion, big and small. There’s no need to come and ask me. Wang Xueshuang gave all the rights to Mu Lan.
Mulan smiled and said, “There are some things I have to tell my grandmother.”
Wang Xueshuang nodded.
This is the difference between Mu Lan and Chen Zhirong.
Chen Zhirong took the power, will not report everything to Wang Xueshuang, even intentionally or unintentionally Wang Xueshuang, and Mu Lan is different, has always respected Wang Xueshuang, even if it is a small matter, as long as it involves the movement in the palace, she will personally come to see Wang Xueshuang, ask for Wang Xueshuang’s advice.
Although the person in charge is still Mu Lan.
“Well, the Fourth Lady passed away, and the maid beside her, Mingyan, wanted to send her out of the house.”. Mingyan was brought back by the Fourth Lady. Although she signed a contract with the palace, Mingyan had been with the Fourth Lady for many years and had very little contact with the people in the palace. Under such circumstances, if Mingyan was left in the palace, I’m afraid Mingyan would only be touched by the scenery.
Mu Lan said directly: “During this period of time when the Fourth Lady was seriously ill, Mingyan was also somewhat absent-minded, so Lan Er made such a decision.”. Now the palace can’t afford any more trouble.
In that case, every word is reasonable.
Wang Hsueh-shuang nodded, “It’s all right for Lan’er to make a decision on the personnel changes in the palace.”. You don’t need to ask me. The implication
is that Wang Xueshuang has no opinion on this matter.
Mu Lan nodded. “Then Lan won’t disturb Grandma’s rest.”
Wang Xueshuang said nothing.
Mulan Fu Fu body, this just back out, back to the snow building.
Ming Yan left the palace this matter, although Mu Lan can make a decision in private, but when asked, it is hard to explain, so Mu Lan and Wang Xueshuang told one.
In this way, Mingyan can wait until after Ji Niang is buried, and after seven days of guarding the mausoleum, she can leave. It
is also the end of Mingyan’s mind.
As for Ji Niang, if she doesn’t want Mingyan to follow, Mu Lan thinks that Ji Niang can also arrange Mingyan’s way out, which is better than Mingyan staying in the palace.
After all, Mu Wangfu’s time of wind and rain will not be too far away.
Can move such compassion, in addition to Ji Niang’s help now, Mu Lan thought of the last life, dozens of lives in Fengqing Palace were disappeared overnight bloody.
Cruel and merciless.
Since he was an innocent man, why should he be implicated in the dispute of Prince Mu’s mansion.
Mu Lan sank, lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and hid his thoughts very well.
Then Mu Lan walked steadily towards the snow building, she never left the snow building, until the day Ji Niang was buried, Mu Lan came out of the snow building.
She was dressed in snow-white clothes, her head was particularly plain, without any accessories, and she walked quietly towards the South Tower.
When Mingyan saw Mu Lan, she nodded, Mu Lan nodded invisibly, and then went to the crystal coffin as if nothing had happened. In the
crystal coffin lies Ji Niang.
Ji Niang’s body is well protected, and her face has been specially taken care of, completely without the previous pale appearance, as if she was charming and smart when she went in and out of the palace.
Mu Lan looked at it quietly and did not speak.
Mu Hongyuan was also dressed in black, and inside the south tower, his deep feelings were much more sad.
Mu Lan looked at Mu Hongyuan’s face, as if the sadness on his face was somewhat sincere and somewhat false. For a long time, Mu Lan bowed his head and smiled sarcastically, but there was no trace of such sarcasm.
Until the time came, in the master’s chanting, Ji Niang’s crystal coffin was carried out.
Mingyan followed closely.
Mu Lan looked at Mingyan, Mingyan nodded without any trace, and then walked quietly, Mingyan’s eyes were obviously crying red.
Mu Lan only sent Ji Niang to the door of the palace, and did not go on.
And Ji Niang is four rooms, is only a concubine, nature is also a side door, from Ji Niang married into the palace to die, have never had the opportunity to go to the main door of the palace.
Mu Lan’s body has not recovered, Mu Hongyuan will not let Mu Lan all the way to send, Ji Niang’s identity, in Mu Hongyuan’s view, it is not worth Mu Lan so much.
Now Mu Lan for Mu Hongyuan, is the treasure held in the palm of the hand, absolutely can not have any bump.
Naturally, Mu Hongyuan did not let Mu Lan go.
Mu Lan did not force, she has more important things.
That Ji Niang in the crystal coffin is not the real Ji Niang, the real Ji Niang has long been stolen last night when the day changed to the snow building, now placed in Mu Lan’s house. All
this was dealt with by Mingyan last night.
Want to carry a person as big as Ji Niang to the snow building, but also to deceive people, naturally much more difficult. Just Mu Lan found a reasonable reason, and then tomorrow’s funeral, to prepare things, this just made Ji Niang steal the sky and change the sun.
And the person in the crystal coffin is Ji Niang after Mu Lan’s transfiguration, such transfiguration is seamless, and naturally it is impossible to be discovered.
Now most of the people in Prince Mu’s mansion have gone out to give Ji Niang a ride. There are very few people
left.
Mu Zhantian and Mu Zhihua are also in the East Tower, after all, Chen Zhirong has not been buried, the master is still crossing over, because of Chen Zhirong, Mu Zhihua looks a little absent-minded, obviously very frightened.
He Yuyi gave Mu Zhihua prescription to calm the nerves, but Mu Zhihua seemed to be sometimes good and sometimes bad.
Under such circumstances, Mu Zhantian naturally did not dare to go far.
Even though Mu Zhantian suspects Mu Lan, in the absence of evidence, Mu Zhantian can only guard Mu Zhihua.
And the position of the crown princess, everything has not been fixed, although Mu Lan has the upper hand, but the upper hand does not mean foolproof, this is the emperor did not decree before everything is variable.
Mu Zhantian won’t let Mu Lan succeed so easily.
So under such circumstances, it is much easier for Mu Lan to get Ji Niang back to herself.
Soon, Mu Lan has appeared in the snow building.
She quietly looked at the bed of Ji Niang, has no heartbeat and breathing, even the skin is cold, but the body is not any stiffness, and the difference between the dead lies in this.
Mu Lan picked up Ji Niang, poured out a pill from the bottle, and quickly stuffed it into Ji Niang’s mouth. After making sure that Ji Niang swallowed it, Mu Lan put Ji Niang down again.
This pill can relieve the fake death pill that Ji Niang took before.
About a wick of incense will take effect, Ji Niang will gradually wake up.
Mu Lan did not speak, but stood up and walked outside the door. He Xiang was waiting outside. “Young lady.”
You will stay here today, and if anyone comes to see me, you will say, ‘I don’t see anyone, and I won’t allow anyone to come in. If anyone tries to trespass, shoot to kill. Put the blame on me for something else, do you hear? Mu Lan ordered in a low voice.
“Yes, the maidservant knows.” He Xiang did not dare to neglect, but looked cautiously at Mu Lan. “Young lady, you must pay attention to safety.”
“I will.” Mu Lan answered.
Soon, Mulan turned back to the house.
When Mu Lan returned to the house, he saw that Rong Jiu was already waiting in the house. When he saw Mu Lan, he said, “My subordinates have seen Miss Mu.”
“Thank you, Lord Yung.” Mu Lan nodded his head.
Rong Jiu didn’t speak.
Two people are waiting in the room, about a wick of incense time is approaching, Ji Niang slowly from the state of suspended animation to wake up, after a moment of trance, only to return to where they are.
She collected herself and looked at Mulan beside the bed.
Mu Lan’s face became more and more sober.
“Young lady.” Cried Ji Niang.
Mu Lan quickly stepped forward and said, “Ji Niang, don’t talk. You can’t move now. It will take at least three days to fully recover and completely empty the medicine in your body.”. Lord Yung and I will escort you out of the house. I will change your clothes so that no one will notice you.
Ji Niang nodded.
She really did not have a trace of strength, and the wound in her chest was not healed.
Mu Lan quickly changed Ji Niang into a suit of clothes that the moon usually wore, and did not avoid Rong Jiu, giving Ji Niang a change of appearance, turning into the appearance of the moon.
“Ji Niang, I have offended you.” Mu Lan took a step back.
Rong Jiu then came forward, nodded and looked at Ji Niang, holding her, Ji Niang did not say anything, Rong Jiu with Ji Niang jumped up, fast toward the palace of Prince Mu.
Mu Lan then hurried away from the backyard of Luoxuelou.
Chen butler has already arranged everything, Mu Wangfu’s back door does not have any guards, naturally will not find Mu Lan from here out.
Her steps are not hurried, not impatient. Around the corner outside the palace of
Prince Mu, Mulan saw a carriage parked there, and the horse raised its hooves.
Mu Lan did not hesitate, quickly on the carriage, Rong Jiu and Ji Niang have been waiting in the car. None of
the three talked.
Rong Jiu lifted the curtain and explained a few words to the driver. The driver immediately raised his whip, and the carriage sped toward Gu Fu in the suburbs of Beijing.
……
On the way, Mu Lan is always a little perturbed. I can’t
say why.
When the carriage was about to arrive at the city gate, the speed suddenly slowed down. Rong Jiu and Mu Lan in the carriage looked at each other, and Ji Niang, who had already woken up, also showed nervousness.
They all knew very well that the carriage would not stop so suddenly, that something must have happened.
Rong Jiu looked at Mu Lan and said, “Miss Mu, let’s go out and have a look.”
Mu Lan hum sound, Rong Jiu soon opened the curtain, in the inquiry driver’s situation, and Ji Niang looked to Mu Lan, Mu Lan’s eyes with comfort.
Don’t worry, it’s probably just a routine check. After all, this is the city gate, and it’s always been like this. This carriage belongs to His Royal Highness, King Yu, and the guards gave them the courage to do so. Mu Lan said calmly.
Ji Niang twisted her eyebrows and moved her pale lips, but in the end she did not say anything and sat quietly.
And Mu Lan’s heart is beating drums, not as calm as the surface. It is impossible for
Li Shiyuan not to suspect Li Shiyu during this period of time, and the news coming out one after another in the palace is enough to prove this point. If Li Shiyuan had arranged
the bodyguard by the gate, he would have suspected when he saw Li Shiyu’s carriage leaving the city. The women in
Li Shiyu’s mansion almost never left Yu’s mansion easily.
And Li Shiyu himself does not need a car.
So Leng Buding Yu Wang Fu’s carriage appeared at the city gate, and how could it not make people suspicious. With the guards at the city gate, Mu Lan did not know how many people could obey Li Shiyu’s orders.
She did not speak, waiting for Rong Jiu to come back, constantly pressing the uneasiness in her heart, forcing herself to calm down.
Ji Niang feels the worry of Mu Lan, Ji Niang looks at Mu Lan, under such circumstances, she also does not know what to say.
Soon, Rong Jiu has turned back.
Mu Lan looked up at Rong Jiu. Rong Jiu’s voice was steady. “Miss Mu, I don’t know what happened. The guards at the city gate are checking every carriage again. You and the fourth lady stay in the carriage and don’t make a sound. The rest of the things will be handled by your subordinates.”
“Good.” Mu Lan did not say much and nodded at Rong Jiu.
Rong Jiu nodded and was about to retreat when Mu Lan suddenly stopped him. “Lord Rong, do you know what the guards are doing? Search them one by one.”
Before this situation, it was at the time of the Wangxianglou accident.
At that time, Li Shiyuan would almost rather be killed by mistake than let go, so as long as he saw and felt almost the same, he would be detained by Li Shiyuan’s people.
Some of the lucky ones can leave, but most of them have died.
But such a big move has already stopped after a while, and now it suddenly comes again, which makes Mu Lan’s eyebrows tighten and his heart beat a little faster.
Rong Jiu didn’t hide it from Mu Lan. He said quickly, “It’s because there was an accident at Wangxianglou before. His Royal Highness concentrated on searching for a while. Later, he would choose to search from time to time. Unfortunately, we met today.”
Sure enough.
Mu Lan did not speak.
But Rong Jiu comforted Mu Lan: “Don’t worry, Miss Mu. My subordinates will handle this well.”
Mu Lan hum, also did not say what.
Soon, Rong Jiu retreated again, and this time the man in the carriage became Rong Jiu, and the carriage began to move slowly again, heading for the city gate.
Sure enough, at the city gate, their carriage was stopped by the guards: “Get off, we want to check.” The voice of the
guard was not polite at all.
Mu Lan did not speak, Ji Niang did not speak, but through the curtain of the gap, Mu Lan faintly recognized that the bodyguards are indeed Li Shiyuan’s people.
And the three entrances and exits of the city gate, surrounded by many guards, checked one by one, and did not let any of them go because of the luxury of the carriage or other circumstances.
Soon, Rong Jiu’s voice came: “Unbridled, I am a member of Yu Wang Fu. This is the carriage of the four royal houses. Are you sure you really want to investigate?”? Do you know what is the crime of privately checking the carriage of the four lords? Besides. I didn’t know that the emperor had ordered a thorough investigation of every carriage.
This is Li Shiyuan’s private behavior, naturally can not be ordered by Li Changtian.
So when the guards were asked by Rong Jiu, they looked at each other and did not know what to say for a moment, but they had to follow the orders from above.
Because Li Shiyuan’s order is not to let go, no matter what the other side’s carriage is, it must be thoroughly investigated. I’ve seen a lot of
these scenes, so the guards seem a lot calmer: “Lord Yung, the minions are just following orders. Please forgive Lord Yung. If there’s anything you’ve offended, please forgive Lord Yung.” The implication
is that today’s carriage, they checked, without exception.
Rong Jiu’s brows twisted, and he didn’t mean to relax at all. “You dog slaves are going to disturb your royal Highnesses. Can you take the responsibility?”
The bodyguard’s face did not change color.
For Li Shiyu, their attitude is more lukewarm, Li Shiyu is not favored in the palace, in Kyoto is not a secret, not to mention Rong Fei died long ago, besides, even when Rong Fei is still there, Rong Fei is only a short period of favor, now seniority, Rong Fei is probably also left out in the cold.
Where can I compare with your Highness today.
So the bodyguard looked at Yung Chiu and said, “I have offended you, Lord Yung.”
Rong Jiu clasped his hand on the scabbard, ready to draw his sword at any time. The atmosphere
outside was seething with rage.
In the car, Mu Lan and Ji Niang also felt clear, but their faces were always much calmer.
Mu Lan’s brain turns very fast, thinking of coping strategies.
“Big Miss” Ji Niang called Mu Lan’s name with lip language and compared her own face.
Ji Niang’s face has been changed by Mu Lan, and his appearance has been far away, plus the present dress, is no longer the former Ji Niang.
Mu Lan also understood the meaning of Ji Niang in an instant.
Ji Niang wants to change her face.
And on the way out, in order to fear accidents, Mu Lan really brought some simple tools.
She nodded, but did not know how much time Rong Jiu outside could buy them.
Quiet, Mu Lan tapped the edge of the carriage, and then, Mu Lan did not hesitate, and Rong Jiu’s tacit understanding, Mu Lan is telling Rong Jiu, how long he needs.
Obviously, Rong Jiu already knew.
He only needs to delay for a while, which is enough to create opportunities for Mulan.
Just when Mu Lan was no longer wasting time, suddenly, a familiar voice came from the side of the carriage: “Why didn’t the king know that the king’s carriage was going to be stopped for inspection?”. Or do you need Ben Wang to ask Second Brother to come out and talk to you?
Li Shiyu’s voice is neither salty nor light, it sounds like calm, but people familiar with Li Shiyu know that such a voice is cold and fierce. The guards at the
city gate naturally recognized Li Shiyu.
Seeing that Li Shiyu had come in person, everyone immediately stopped their movements and knelt down to pay their respects: “The slave has seen the four royal Highnesses.”
“Do you want to check the king’s carriage?” Li Shiyu looked down at the slave kneeling on the ground.
At this point, the tough guards looked at each other carefully, and the leader said in a low voice, “Your Highness, this may be a misunderstanding.”. The minions are just conducting a routine inspection, and they have received orders from above. If there is anything that offends the four lords, please forgive them.
No matter how much Li Shiyu was not favored in the palace, it was undeniable that Li Shiyu was the king of Yu and the fourth prince of Dazhou. Compared
with these slaves, they are naturally much more noble.
It’s just an order from above.
The guards were caught in a dilemma.
But looking at Li Shiyu’s almost sullen smile, they dared not move any more.
On the contrary, Li Shiyu suddenly took a step back, and the smile in his eyes was even colder: “If you want to check, the king naturally can’t stop you. It’s just that the king is curious. What are you looking for? If the king’s carriage doesn’t have what you’re looking for, what are you going to do?”
The guard’s face changed.
The king’s words are here. If there is nothing you are looking for in the carriage, you must be ready to come to see him. The king doesn’t know that this routine inspection out of the city can still find the present prince.
Li Shiyu’s low voice was almost a warning.
At this point, the tone of the bodyguard suddenly became submissive: “Your Highness, you misunderstood. The slaves didn’t mean that. Naturally, the slaves didn’t dare to stop your carriage. Please.”
The guards had stepped aside, and their attitude was very clear.
They no longer check Li Shiyu’s carriage, nor dare to check Li Shiyu’s carriage.
Li Shi-yu looked coldly at the bodyguard, then looked at Yung Chiu and said, “Why don’t you go?” “Yes,”
said Yung Chiu respectfully.
Then, Rong Jiu drove the carriage quickly toward the outside of the city gate, and Li Shiyu followed the horse, and soon, the carriage disappeared at the gate, speeding toward the outskirts of the city. Both Mu Lan and Ji Niang in the
carriage breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
After all, even if the transfiguration, the future is still easy to reveal flaws, reveal flaws, after all, is also to implicate Li Shiyu.
Besides, she has implicated Li Shiyu a lot of things.
Shen Shen, Mu Lan did not speak. The sound of the carriage and the sound of the horse’s hooves came from her
ears, and she knew that Li Shiyu had been following her. Out of sight outside the
city gate, the carriage stopped in the bamboo forest, suddenly the carriage stopped again, Ji Niang’s hand tightly holding the edge of the carriage, dare not open his mouth.
Mu Lan is calm, did not speak, patiently waiting for Rong Jiu to speak again.
As it turned out, the person who lifted the curtain this time was not Yung Chiu, but Li Shiyu. He looked at Mu Lan with an expressionless face: “Get out of the car.”
Mu Lan some stunned, Ji Niang is not clear, the two exchanged eyes.
And Li Shiyu’s eyes fell on Ji Niang’s body.
Ji Niang was quiet and did not speak.
Li Shiyu quickly withdrew his line of sight, and then said lightly, “Ji Niang is in the car. You have already changed your appearance. Your identity is the concubine of Yu Wang Fu. Other things will be done according to the king’s arrangement.”
“Yes.” Ji Niang was not suspicious and immediately nodded and promised to come down.
But Mu Lan more and more does not understand: “Four Your Highnesses…”
“Come down and don’t ask the king a third time.” Li Shiyu’s tone is not very good.
Mu Lan also did not haggle with Li Shiyu, she is clear that Li Shiyu will not do things for no reason, let oneself get off the carriage, there must be a reason. Without hesitation,
Mu Lan lifted the curtain and got out of the car.
Li Shiyu’s hand is very natural to hold Mu Lan, but Mu Lan did not trace to avoid Li Shiyu’s hand, and behind the expressionless off the car.
Rong Jiu waited for Mu Lan. He quickly took Mu Lan to one side of the woods. Rong Si was already waiting in the woods. “Miss Mu, come with me. I wronged you.”
Mu Lan nodded his head.
Soon, Mu Lan kept up with the pace of the temple, the temple did not take Mu Lan far, but hidden in the woods.
But the two men could no longer see the direction of the carriage, and the woods seemed much safer, and it would be much easier for them to hide if something really happened.
After the two men stopped, Rong Si still explained to Mu Lan: Recently, His Royal Highness has been looking for the dancer in Wangxianglou, so the city gate has begun to be strictly investigated again, and no one will let it go. The guards didn’t dare to check the chariot of the fourth emperor when the fourth emperor came down, but that doesn’t mean prince didn’t dare to check. The prince is also around here.
At this point, Mu Lan nodded and suddenly realized: “I’m tired.”
Rong Si and Rong Jiu are brothers. They
are all Li Shiyu’s trusted followers.
But compared with Rong Jiu, Rong Temple is more in the dark.
If Mu Lan remembers correctly, Rong Si is responsible for Li Shiyu’s dark guard. Two people are twins, but all the people outside only think that Li Shiyu’s side is only followed by a Rong Jiu. The identity of
Rong Si was later found out by Li Shiyuan. Naturally, after the death of Li Shiyu, the two brothers Rong Si and Rong Jiu also hanged themselves.
Rong Temple saw Mu Lan understand, also did not say anything more, he always kept a proper distance with Mu Lan, two people stood quietly, waiting for Li Shiyu to return to look for two people.
But Mu Lan’s eyes, can not help but also with a trace of worry.
Now Ji Niang, can not be any trauma, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. After
she entered feigned death, all her functions were recovering, and if there was an accident, she would really die.
Now, however, Mu Lan can do nothing but stand calmly.
……
After Mu Lan left, Li Shiyu looked at Ji Niang, nodded and did not explain anything more, Ji Niang’s face was still pale, no one supported, and could not stand well, in addition to the carriage, Ji Niang had no choice.
Rong Jiu has been on the carriage, the carriage slowly forward, did not stay in place again.
Li Shiyu, on the other hand, took his time following the side of the carriage.
They had not gone far when they were suddenly followed by the sound of a galloping horse.
Li Shiyu quieted down and looked at Rong Jiu without any trace.
Rong Jiu nodded his head and continued to ride his horse with an expressionless face, not because the sound of the horse’s hooves was getting closer and closer, but because he was timid or slow.
Until the sound of the horse’s hooves stopped, Li Shiyuan’s figure appeared in front of the carriage.
Li Shiyu looked at Li Shiyuan with a slightly surprised expression. “I’ve seen my second brother. Why is he here?”
As if he had no idea what had happened.
Li Shiyuan looked at Li Shiyu’s eyes, like a smile, but such eyes with a trace of indifference, the rest is doubt.
“The fourth brother is so relaxed and carefree. What is he doing in the suburbs of Beijing?” Li Shiyuan asked directly, “When the king came over, he happened to hear the bodyguard say that the fourth brother had passed through the city gate without allowing the bodyguard to inspect the carriage of Prince Yu’s mansion.”
“Second Brother, that’s not true.” Li Shi-yu smiled and was very calm. “My brother gave way, but the guards didn’t check again. My brother was in a hurry, so naturally he didn’t delay much by the city gate. I didn’t expect that my second brother would come after me personally.”
“In a hurry?” Li Shiyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Shiyu.
From the beginning of the Hungry Ghost Festival, many things have pointed to Li Shiyu, but Li Shiyuan did not find evidence, again and again let Li Shiyu slip away from his front.
And Li Shiyu is obviously the person that Li Shiyuan did not expect. The most quiet and low-key prince
in the palace, unexpectedly will be the object of all people.
Not the princes who were ready for the throne as Li Shiyuan thought.
But looking at Li Shiyu, Li Shiyuan did not feel the ambition of Li Shiyu, but for Li Shiyuan, he would rather kill by mistake than let go. The relationship between the
two people has not changed on the surface, but the undercurrent has been turbulent in private. After
several tests, Li Shiyuan has found that Li Shiyu can escape from his trap as quickly as possible. If he is really a man without the strength of a chicken, how can he do it.
While Li Shiyuan was thinking deeply, Li Shiyu had already said lightly, “Something happened to a concubine in my brother’s house, so my brother took her to the outskirts of the city to look for a bone-setting master.” Li Shiyu naturally didn’t believe
this: “The fourth brother still wants to find a ghost hand for his father, and he has the leisure to take his concubine out of the mansion to find a bone-setting doctor.”
“In any case, whether I favor my brother or not, it’s the people of Yu Wang Fu after all. If something goes wrong, my brother naturally can’t ignore it.” Li Shiyu is calm.
Li Shiyuan looked at Li Shiyu and did not speak.
Then Li Shiyu lowered his head and chuckled. Then he looked at Li Shiyuan, his eyes magnanimous: “Besides, recently my father was anxious to give the princess to my younger brother. My younger brother really didn’t catch a cold. It would be a good thing to find a reason to leave the palace openly.” Li Shiyuan knew about
this.
Li Changtian wants to marry with the foreign vassal, the status of the foreign vassal naturally can not get the identity of a concubine, this sum up to sum up, eventually the candidate became Li Shiyu.
Li Shiyu is reluctant, but Li Shiyuan is very clear.
Li Shiyu has always liked beauties, but only standard Jiangnan women, gentle and moving, rather than such a strong temperament as Princess Waifan. Many of Li Shiyu’s concubines and side concubines were also placed by Li Shiyuan, who helped Li Shiyuan monitor Li Shiyu everywhere.
Just, so many years, and no use, at least did not find anything wrong with Li Shiyu.
So under such circumstances, it seems that Li Shiyu’s explanation has become reasonable.
But Li Shiyuan is not a person who believes easily.
“Yung Chiu, let your wife come out.” Li Shiyu suddenly looked at Rong Jiu and ordered lightly.
Rong Jiu was somewhat embarrassed. “Your Highness, madam, you can’t move.”
And Rong Jiu’s voice fell, the door curtain of the carriage had been opened, and the woman inside poked her head out, her face was beautiful, but her face was pale, and she really couldn’t move.
Her voice was weak: “I have seen the prince.”
These words, Ji Niang said particularly difficult, head down, quietly, looks like a person who has been ill for a long time.
Li Shiyuan really didn’t expect that there was really a woman in the car.
Even the door curtain was opened generously, the situation inside the carriage was at a glance, and there was no one else except the sick woman.
“The king has not seen you.” Li Shiyuan slightly squints, also is not so easy to flicker, looks at sullenly, sinks the voice to ask. It was Li Shiyu who
answered: “She’s been in the mansion for many years. Besides, there are so many concubines in my brother’s mansion. It’s impossible that the second brother has seen all of them.”
In a word, it is simple.
Li Shiyuan did not refute.
Unless they are sent to the house, otherwise, Li Shiyuan really can not distinguish, Li Shiyu these years also accepted a lot of concubines, but these two years are relatively quiet, no more people to the house.
“If that’s the case, then the king won’t stand in the way.” Li Shiyuan didn’t say anything.
After all, in the absence of any circumstances, Li Shiyuan can not do anything to Li Shiyu, besides, this matter is not aboveboard, big for Li Shiyuan is not any good.
Therefore, we can only compromise.
Li Shi-yu is also very calm: “Thank you, second brother.”. The younger brother said goodbye first.
But Li Shiyu’s eyes did not show any sign of panic. He quietly looked at Rong Jiu and said, “Let’s go to Doctor Huang in the suburbs of Beijing.”
“Yes.” Rong Jiu answered.
Then the carriage moved slowly.
Li Shiyu did not say much, and after nodding to Li Shiyuan, he followed the carriage and rode forward.
Li Shiyuan remained motionless in situ, looking at Li Shiyu’s figure, squinting slightly, but the suspicion in his eyes never dissipated.
“Your Highness, this..” Mu Zhantian twisted his eyebrows.
Li Shiyuan did not speak, but looked at Li Shiyu’s figure for a long time before he calmly said, “Li Shiyu is good to the concubines in the mansion. Everyone knows this. Even if he is not favored, Li Shiyu will not ignore it, so there is nothing wrong with his words and deeds.”
That’s the truth.
“But.” Mu Zhantian disagreed. “That concubine looks familiar to me.”
It’s just that Mu Zhantian never remembered where this concubine looked familiar. Can not say, especially that pair of eyes, deep and serene people feel panic.
But the face is really completely unknown to Mu Zhantian.
“Find someone to follow Li Shiyu and see where he has gone. The rest will go back to the city gate with the king.” Li Shi-yuan’s voice was cruel. “We must find out who the king is. Even if there is a clue, we must thoroughly investigate it.”. If you can turn Wangxianglou upside down and still get out smoothly, the king wants to see what’s going on around the king.
