protect my lady

After all, it was the first day of martial arts training, Mu Zixuan still persisted in a very face-saving way, and honestly walked for an hour, and went back with a bottle of medicine to relieve muscle pain.

After going back and forth like this for five days, Mu Zixuan felt that he couldn't take it anymore. It was too boring to keep on the horse step. He wanted to practice sword moves like his sister.

"No, your foundation is too weak. Even if you learn sword moves, it's just a show." Fu Feiyu refused without thinking, "Your footwork is unstable, and you can't do anything with practice."

"It doesn't matter, I know Zamabu, and I can practice by myself after I learn sword moves." Mu Zixuan said.

"It doesn't matter if it's just a show?" Fu Feiyu raised his eyebrows and asked.

"En." Mu Zixuan nodded.

"Okay, it's as you wish." Fu Feiyu didn't write any ink, and directly demonstrated the first set of sword skills he taught Mu Qingchen, and the moves in it were the most basic sword moves.

"Remember to come down?" Fu Feiyu put away his sword and asked after a demonstration.

Mu Zixuan stretched out a finger in embarrassment and pinched his face, "Brother-in-law, you moved a little too fast just now, I think...you understand what I mean."

"I understand, this time I will slow down and you can concentrate." After finishing speaking, Fu Feiyu demonstrated again at a slower speed.

This set of basic sword moves has twenty moves, and Fu Feiyu demonstrated each move twice at high speed before stopping.

"So?" Fu Feiyu raised an eyebrow and asked.

Mu Zixuan looked at Fu Feiyu with a serious face, and said honestly, "I remember the previous moves, and I feel a little bit about the latter."

Fu Feiyu was noncommittal, and passed a wooden stick casually, "Take this as a sword and demonstrate it to me.".

Mu Zixuan nervously held the wooden stick in his hand, relying on the memory he had memorized for many years, roughly copied the first five moves, as for the latter, there were only sporadic one or two moves.

Fu Feiyu watched from the side, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, turned his head and said to Mu Qingchen, "Zixuan probably has a little bit of talent on the average person's part, if you want to develop a little talent, one hour a day is not enough. "

"Then let him train his body better, he just doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back, sometimes he is very stubborn." Mu Qingchen said with a smile.

Compared to Mu Zixuan, she is really talented. If she demonstrates this kind of sword move Feiyu twice, she will almost remember it.

"Brother-in-law, that's all I've memorized." Mu Zixuan put away the stick with some embarrassment, after all, he didn't even memorize half of the sword moves.

"It's okay, the first five moves are pretty good." Fu Feiyu thought for a while and still didn't overly discourage Mu Zixuan's enthusiasm for martial arts. Draw them all, and then you will have more time to think about it."

"Okay, brother-in-law is so kind to me!" Mu Zixuan's eyes lit up, if his sister hadn't blocked his brother-in-law behind him like a child, he would have wanted to give his brother-in-law a loving hug.

In piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, except for Fu Feiyu who is weaker in chess, the other three are relatively good.

After agreeing to Mu Zixuan's drawing of moves for him, Fu Feiyu rushed out that day and sent the things over.

"Sister, this is all drawn by my brother-in-law. It's so vivid, it's just like Chun..." Mu Zixuan stopped in the middle of his sentence. Now his brother-in-law is not a person who can make jokes casually, so he must pay attention to it. Some are.

"Just what?" Mu Qingchen raised his eyebrows, knowing that his younger brother had messed up thoughts.

"It's the same as the paintings of those masters!" Mu Zixuan hurriedly made amends, and when he saw no one was around, he asked too much.

"Sister, I still have some private possessions, do you want them? Huh?" Mu Zixuan blinked, not feeling that there was anything wrong with his family's doing so.

Mu Qingchen kept a straight face, "It's better to spend more time on homework when you have time to tinker with these things! Don't mention this kind of thing again, if you mention it again, I will ask Fei Yu to give you another box of books!"

"Sister, I was wrong, I must change my mind!" Mu Zixuan cried and admitted his mistake, he was thinking of his own sister.

Now that the three obediences and four virtues of the previous dynasty are not popular, even women can have some boudoir joy.

"It's good to know, and you are not allowed to look at these things indiscriminately in the future." Mu Qingchen said with a serious face, "I will give you an incense stick of time to sort them all out, and put them down in my place for safekeeping before you get married. !"

Mu Zixuan's eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to say something, but after seeing Mu Qingchen's majestic eyes, he swallowed the words back in his throat.

"Sister is right, I'll sort it out right away." Mu Zixuan quickly nodded in agreement.

It's a loss, it's a loss, and now my private collection is gone.It must be three years after I get married, this is too miserable.

Mu Qingchen confiscated Mu Zixuan's storybook and picture album with a serious face.

Recently, Feiyu has been a little bit overwhelmed at night, so it is just to supplement the theoretical knowledge with these, and then he will not be helpless to fight back.

Just when Fu Feiyu and Mu Qingchen were living a peaceful and beautiful life, planning to go to the capital until the year before, the housekeeper of the Mu family came to visit.

The butler didn't come empty-handed this time either. None of the guards following him held a thick stack of books, while he himself carried most of the land deeds of the shepherd's family.

"Miss, the master ordered me to bring it here." The housekeeper said obsequiously, "The master said that he is getting old, so it's better to leave these properties to the young lady."

Mu Qingchen's reaction after hearing the butler's words was quite flat, and he said without a trace of emotion, "Butler, you go back, I don't need these things."

"How can this be done? Missy is the heir in the master's heart." The housekeeper hurriedly flattered, and incidentally expressed Master Mu's determination this time, "I have already brought over most of the title deeds of the shops, as long as we arrive Take a trip to the yamen, and these properties are all under your name, Miss."

"I said, I don't want these properties." Mu Qingchen repeated patiently.

Mu Qingchen is living happily now, owning most of the saltworks in Nanjing under his name.She entrusted Rong Fei and the Lin family sisters to handle all these saltworks. She didn't need to deal with trivial matters and accounts, and she didn't need to inspect them every day. She could get money just lying at home every day.Why did she want to do some thankless things, because she couldn't think about accepting the shepherd's property.

"Here, miss, I can't explain to the master that you do this." The butler said with a bitter face.

"Then you don't need to explain." Fu Feiyu said, and walked in across the threshold.

"Cao Min sees the Second Prince." Butler Mu quickly knelt down and saluted.

Although Fu Feiyu's identity has not been disclosed to the public, it is Mu Steward who knows Fu Feiyu's identity, so he dare not be rude.

"Get up, take all these things back to me, and leave them for your master to worry about." Fu Feiyu said with a look of disgust. These books look annoying, and if you don't specify, you are here to rob her. .

"But..." Steward Mu got up from the ground with a gloomy expression on his face.Recently, the master's temper is getting worse and worse. If he doesn't finish his errands, he doesn't know what is waiting for him.

"Are you going to violate my order?" Fu Feiyu narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a somewhat dangerous look.

"Don't dare, grass people don't dare." Steward Mu is just a small man who will greet the magistrates of the seventh rank in a low voice, let alone Fu Feiyu is the second prince.

Prince, normally, he would never see anyone in his life, but his status is extremely noble.

"Go back and tell your master not to come out thinking about anything, or don't blame me for being rude." Fu Feiyu said with a frown, and dismissed Butler Mu with a few casual words.

Butler Mu didn't dare to stay any longer, so Fu Feiyu left with his men in despair after speaking.

"Next time I'll order the guards, and none of the Mu family will be there." Fu Feiyu sat down next to Mu Qingchen and said to her.

"En." Mu Qingchen replied lazily, not looking very interested, "Fei Yu, you don't think I'm too heartless, do you?"

"How could it be? If it were me, the grass on Mu Kangning's grave would be three feet high." Fu Feiyu held Mu Qingchen's hand comfortingly, "As for your father, I think I will send him to prison. The kind that can’t come out.”

"Your current family members are me, Zixuan, and aunt. After you live in the capital, my father, mother, and elder sister will also be your family members." Fu Feiyu comforted, "As for those who make you unhappy , don’t think about them.”

"Well, you're right." Mu Qingchen was not the kind of person who drilled into a dead end, and quickly came out by himself after a simple enlightenment. "How is the preparation of mother's new book?"

"Come on, the first draft seems to be finished." Fu Feiyu touched his chin and said.

"Okay then, let's go find mother and read it in advance."

"Okay."

Butler Mu's arrival was just a small episode. After hearing the words conveyed by the butler, Master Mu was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger.

He couldn't offend Fu Feiyu, and Mrs. Mu and Mu Zixuan had already left, so he just had to vent his anger on Mu Kangning.

If Mu Kangning hadn't attacked Fu Feiyu many times, he might be a relative of the emperor now, and the officials of the Suzhou government would not be able to see his face!How could it be reduced to the point where it is locked up now!

Evil son!What a villain!If I had known earlier, I would not have let him be born!

After that kind of thing happened, Master Mu didn't have much intention to help Mu Kangning heal his leg. At most, he just found an ordinary doctor to take care of him, so that his wound would not deteriorate and amputation.

After a while, Mu Kangning also calmed down. After seeing that Fu Feiyu didn't want his head, he desperately wanted to get rid of the current situation.

It's just that his leg is crippled, and Fu Feiyu sent people to monitor him, so even if he had any ideas, he could only die in the bud.

After October and November, the weather gradually turns cold.When snowflakes are falling in the sky, Mu Qingchen's birthday is coming.

Mu Qingchen didn't have any big ideas this time, he just wanted to stay at home and cook some meals by himself, just to celebrate with his family.

"Leave this to me. I cook occasionally in Yashan. Although I can't cook particularly good dishes, I am still very good at ordinary home-cooked dishes." Fu Feiyu volunteered.

"Brother-in-law, do you really know how to cook?" Mu Zixuan joked, "Don't tell the difference between sugar and salt."

"Brat, you are talking about yourself." Mrs. Mu ruthlessly dismantled her son's desk, "I am you who still remember your cooking skills when you were a child, forcibly cooking sweet soup into salty soup .”

"Almost set the kitchen on fire." Mu Qingchen made up the knife at the right time.

"Excessive! Brother-in-law, look at them all bullying me!" Mu Zixuan said unfairly.

"Zixuan, don't worry, I will definitely stand on your sister's side." Fu Feiyu said with a smile, it is quite happy to bully Mu Zixuan once in a while.

Just when everyone was eager to go to the kitchen, Shisan led someone to bring in a big box.

"Second Young Master, this is what the master asked me to bring here. It's a birthday present for the shepherd girl." Thirteen said respectfully, and opened the lid while putting down the box.

Wow, Mu Zixuan has a big mouth, and he has the most exaggerated expression among the four. He looks like he has never seen anything in the world, and he almost couldn't help reaching out to touch it.

"This jade carving is a gift from the master. I hope that the shepherd girl will have a smooth life in the future. This jade bracelet is a gift from my wife. It is a tribute from Youbang. It is polished from high-quality jade. This set of jewelry It was given by the master, and this piece of soft armor was given by Miss Ye..."

Thirteen chattered, carefully introducing the origin of each gift.

Mu Zixuan's eyes were full of envy, after all the calculations, there are usually gifts from the emperor in this box, and any leftover can be regarded as a family heirloom.

Compared with Mu Zixuan, Mrs. Mu felt more relieved after seeing this scene.

Fu Feiyu is the second prince, and the lord and wife in the thirteen mouths are the emperor and queen. Such a noble person can remember Qingchen's birthday, and even calculated the time to send things from the capital. Isn't that just It means they recognized Qingchen!

After thinking of her daughter's happy life in the future, Madam Mu's smile deepened, it's so good, so good.

"Qingchen, our parents have given you so many things. After a while, we will go to Beijing together and have a happy reunion." Fu Feiyu said with a smile, and handed over the gift she had prepared go out.

"Sure, when I see my uncle and aunt, I will definitely express my thanks in person." Mu Qingchen was also very happy to receive these unexpected gifts.

These gifts represent many meanings, and after receiving it, Mu Qingchen doesn't have to have some strange thoughts from time to time, thinking that he will not be worthy of Fu Feiyu and the like.

Compared with the gifts from Fu Qiming, Wen Ruoyun and others, Mrs. Mu and Mu Zixuan are more interested in preparing things. The gifts of both of them are made by themselves, and Mu Qingchen is also very happy after receiving them.

As for Fu Feiyu's gift, after Mu Qingchen opened it for a look, he snapped the box shut, his face blushing quickly.

It must be that I have indulged her too much recently, and dared to give that kind of thing to myself as a gift!

That being the case, don't blame yourself for being rude!

Who is the master of chess early in the morning, we will find out tonight!

The Fu Mansion in Suzhou is bustling, and everyone has a smile on their faces.In comparison, the Mu's mansion was rather bleak, except for a few guards who had sold their lives in the hands of Master Mu, there were basically no people to be seen.

As for Mu Kangning, after the dust settled in the imperial examination fraud case, all his merits were removed, and he was banned from the exam for life and would never be hired.

Some people are worried and some people are happy. The imperial examination fraud case involved a lot.

As for the family of the minister of rites, Fu Qiming didn't involve too much, he just copied the house of the minister of rites.

After the house was ransacked, no matter whether it was a concubine or anyone else, all the valuables in Li's house were swept away, leaving only Liu Cenxi with a trace of relief on his face.

The formerly crowded mansion became empty. After counting her dowry, Liu Cenxi was the last one to move out of Li's mansion, and bought another second-class mansion to live in by herself.

Just when Liu Cenxi stepped out of Li's residence, a gorgeously dressed and beautiful woman stood in front of her.

"Mrs. Cheng." Liu Cenxi shouted indifferently, and took a step back, as if wanting to go around Li Yuxiu.

"You don't have anything to say to me?" Li Yuxiu directly reached out to stop Liu Cenxi, and wrapped her in her arms a little domineeringly.

Liu Cenxi's beautiful brows were immediately frowned, struggling to get out of Li Yuxiu's embrace.Her maids have already gone to settle in a new house first, and now she is alone.

"You'd better not move around, or I won't know what I'm going to do." Li Yuxiu said to Liu Cenxi's ear, seeing the pink and tender earlobe, she couldn't help biting lightly.

"Li Yuxiu!" Liu Cenxi couldn't help trembling, trying to turn his head away, "What are you doing?"

"What am I going to do?" Li Yuxiu sneered, "Of course I want to fuck you."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Cenxi's face turned red little by little.

"I'm talking nonsense? Then tell me why you got engaged to Li Shang without saying a word? If I hadn't found out in time, I'm afraid I would have found out when you got on the sedan chair." After mentioning this, Li Yuxiu His heart was filled with anger again, he directly pinched Liu Cenxi's face, forcing her to look at him.

"Liu Cenxi, tell me why?"

Liu Cenxi didn't dare to look at Li Yuxiu. Everything that happened back then was her own fault. She was too cowardly and she was sorry for Li Yuxiu.

"What's the matter, are you dumb?" Li Yuxiu became even angrier after seeing Liu Cenxi's beating and scolding behavior.No matter where it is, he directly hugged him and threw him into his carriage.

"Liu Cenxi, if you want to be dumb, go for it, but no matter what you want to be, you have to remember that you are my Li Yuxiu." On the carriage, he stamped his own seal.

"You, you, you..." Liu Cenxi pulled his collar, the corners of his eyes were slightly red, looking extremely pitiful.

Li Yuxiu touched her lips indifferently, and the smile on her face became more and more presumptuous, "What's the matter, aren't you dumb anymore?"

"You already have a family." Liu Cenxi talked and talked for a long time, and finally only choked out this accusation, which was not considered an accusation.

"It's simple, as long as you are obedient, I will make peace with Cheng Quan immediately." Li Yuxiu said with a smile.

She and Cheng Quan had no relationship at all, since they had a daughter, they haven't had sex for many years.

Cheng Quan is a person who likes beauty, seeing that his wife doesn't want to talk to him, he doesn't force himself, and goes directly to play with other beautiful women.

In this way, Li Yuxiu and Cheng Quan reached a tacit understanding, and Cheng Quan gave her all the decency she deserved, and it was fine for Li Yuxiu not to fulfill his wife's obligations, as long as she didn't interfere with her having fun outside.

Based on this situation, if Li Yuxiu insisted on making peace, Cheng Quan would most likely agree.After all, his eldest son was born in a concubine's room, and once Li Yuxiu left, he would be able to restore the concubine's room logically.

After hearing Li Yuxiu's words, Liu Cenxi froze for a moment, then smiled wryly, "We can't go back anymore."

"Why can't I go back?" Li Yuxiu squeezed Liu Cenxi's chin, forcing her to look at herself, "I tell you, as long as I'm here, there's nothing I can't go back."

"I know that you have been bound by those rules and regulations since you were a child. When Li Shang was alive, I did not pester you too much as you wished."

"But it's different now, Li Shang's head is already in a different place." After saying this, Li Yuxiu twitched her lips, "You may not know that Li Shang cheated in the imperial examination because I stabbed His Royal Highness , I handed in the key evidence."

"Did you premeditate?" Liu Cenxi stared blankly at Li Yuxiu, the person in front of her seemed to subvert her cognition.

"Yes, since Li Shang doesn't cherish you, I'll snatch you back from his grasp." Li Yuxiu said flamboyantly, "Liu Cenxi, I'll give you two choices now, one is to follow me obediently, and we will Two live."

Liu Cenxi hesitated, "What about the other one?"

"The other one?" Li Yuxiu smiled, "The other one is naturally that I used my power to suppress others. I packed you, a commoner, and threw them on my bed. You will only see me for the rest of your life."

Liu Cenxi: ...

There is no difference between these two choices, it is nothing more than one she accepts actively and the other she accepts passively.

"Yuxiu, I'm not what I used to be. You have to be clear, I've already been married." It's absolutely impossible to say that my heart is not touched.But after seeing the confident and flamboyant person in front of him, Liu Cenxi felt a little inferior.

She should not be worthy of such a good person as Yuxiu.
