Shanglin Night Snow

Guo Kai rushed forward to untie him and lay him flat, his face was as pale as paper under the moonlight, his mouth and eyes were tightly shut.

"Is he still saved?" Mu Yunqi asked urgently.

Guo Kai was startled, and then he thought of stretching out his hand to feel his pulse, but it was almost difficult to detect, but fortunately, his body was still hot.Fortunately, he knew some ways to rescue him, so Guo Kai pressed his hands on the man's chest, sometimes stroked his limbs, and pressed his abdomen, repeating this, it seemed like a long time passed in the middle of the night, when suddenly he felt a muffled groan coming from the man's throat , but the breath comes out of the mouth!Guo Kai was overjoyed, but his subordinates did not dare to stop, they rubbed and pressed for a while, and saw the man opened his mouth and coughed violently, finally saving his life.

Fumbling to put the man back on the couch in the inner room, Guo Kai turned around and found a candle to light it up. Under the light, the man's complexion improved and his breathing gradually became smoother.Feeling at ease, he cast a relieved glance back: "He has recovered, Your Majesty is at ease."

"That's good." Mu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, then dragged a chair and sat down, looking confused: "I just got divorced once, why is this?"

Guo Kai sighed softly: "It's not just about retiring the engagement... He hasn't been happy all these years..."

Hearing this, Mu Yunqi was stunned, and then his eyes drooped slightly: "In other words, his talents were not met, and he was unsuccessful in enrolling in an imperial examination when he was young. It is more or less because of me, so I also wanted to support him..."

"Because of Your Majesty?" Guo Kai was surprised.

Mu Yun prayed for Lusan: "He was eighteen when he was admitted to the imperial examination. I thought he was a genius, and I praised him casually. Who would have thought that the next day the Golden Hall would roll his name, but he would be named down to the top ten, and he would only be awarded the official name of the eighth-rank secretary... ..."

"That's how it is." Guo Kai was stunned, but suddenly he heard the sound of coughing on the couch.

After drinking a cup of tea slowly, Xun Miao's mind was finally clear.Seeing Guo Kai, how embarrassed, but silent.In order to prevent Mu Yunqi from seeing the clues, Guo Kai had no choice but to find something to say, so he concealed the repentance of the Yan family and apologized to him in advance.

It was only then that Mu Yunqi realized that there were still twists and turns, so it was no wonder that Xun Miao felt deeply humiliated, so he said: "Since the Yan family is in a favorable position, it would be better if the marriage did not work out, so as not to feel incompatible after marriage, but regret it too much."

Guo Kai agreed.

Unexpectedly, it would be fine if he didn't open his mouth, but when he opened his mouth, the person would be excited: "I listened to people's words and thought that good things are easy to get. It's like buying melons. Before the melons arrive, I buy the melon cutting knife first. Who would have thought it would be better?" If you don't see melons any longer, you will see people eating melons passing by the next day!"

"I didn't grab that melon!" Guo Kai's face turned red, he pondered for a while, seemingly cautiously: "Then buy another melon?..."

"It's easy for you to say anything!" Xun Miao finally furious: "But you know, in order to eat melons, I bought a new melon knife and a big melon pot. Now that my savings are gone, I will lose my home Wandering, but you still encourage me to buy another melon? Are you trying to tease me?"

"Melon pot?" I don't know what he meant, Guo Kai couldn't understand.

It was Mu Yunqi who comforted him with kind words: "Isn't this exaggerated? Although your courtyard is small, it can always accommodate you..."

The man sighed, turning from anger to mourning: "Your Majesty, I don't know something. A few days ago, I was planning to get married. In addition to adding new furniture, I also found another larger courtyard. I moved out a month later, so I took advantage of the opportunity to return this house. Unexpectedly, the rent of the new house would suddenly increase. I gave up the idea of ​​moving out in a fit of anger, but I didn't expect that the yard had already been rented by others. It was so good, the money was gone, The marriage is not consummated, and it is said that there will be more than a month, and they will live on the streets, it is really..." His voice choked up, "Misfortunes never come singly!"

"This..." Unexpectedly, Mu Yunqi hesitated for a moment.After a few thoughts, he looked at Guo Kai like a flash of inspiration: "Your Guo's house is deep and wide, and there are many vacant places in the house. Why don't you let Xun Qing move into your house for a while?"

"Move... into my house?" Guo Kai was stunned.

"No!" The person on the couch was also terrified.

"Why not?" Mu Yun Qixian was complacent about this idea, "Since Guo Qing made a mistake in the previous matter, he should make up for it. If you move in today, he won't be able to charge rent. When he fulfills his promise to promise a marriage with you, you can do it again." Just move out."

"This..." Guo Kai secretly sighed bitterly, but the holy will must not be violated, and the person on the couch seemed to be no longer in a hurry, on the contrary, he silently pinched his fingers with lowered eyes: free food, free living, guaranteed marriage, such temptations , it is difficult for him not to be moved...

Who taught self-inflicted instigators?Guo Kai had no choice but to appoint.And think about the good, such a right should make up for the previous loss, and when the marriage is settled, the person will move out and live in his own place, and he will be at peace from now on!Only a little more calm.

Considering that he had done a good deed, Mu Yun prayed that he would be satisfied at the moment, leaving Guo Kai to look after Xun Miao, and then rode back with the attendants who came to pick him up.He walked to Nanmen Street, but he didn't go straight back to the palace. Instead, he turned the corner of the street and went west. After a while, he arrived in front of the west courtyard of Shao's house - he had already made up his mind that tonight, he must go to Shao's house again.

Standing outside the wall, you can clearly hear the sound of the zither inside.Although Shao Jingheng also has a good understanding of the rhythm, but he seldom caresses affectionately, and plays the strings according to the rules, without any skills at all, not to mention the aura, because the player who plays the piano must be someone else, most likely a woman!That being said, is it possible...?Mu Yunqi was furious for a moment.

Climbing the wall to enter the courtyard, Mu Yunqi took three steps and two steps, went to the window of the study where the light was shining, and listened quietly.

After a while, the sound of the piano stopped.

Someone said hello, and it was Shao Jingheng: "I used to listen to your qin music, although it was mellow and pleasant, but I always felt cautious. Listening to it today, I realized that you also have a willful side."

The woman's voice replied: "Maybe it's a different mood. At that time, I was stuck in the mud. No matter how I pretend to be noble, I can't cover up the fact that I am trying to survive. I still have to cater to everyone's good. Now that I am free, my mood has changed suddenly. Since I was young, I have gone through a lot of miscellaneous things. I should also thank Mr. Lang for saving me."

"I promised your father to take good care of you at the beginning, so I should keep my promise. Why do I need to thank you?" Shao Jingheng said sincerely, "Let's say I treat you as my own sister. From now on, you and I will be called brothers and sisters..."

Mu Yunqi kicked a stone away.

The woman was startled: "What noise?"

Shao Jingheng didn't care, "Cat, it's just a stone that was stepped on the wall."

Mu Yunqi gritted his teeth.

"I don't think there are still cats here..." the woman wondered.

"It's just a wild cat." Shao Jingheng was still casual, "It climbed the wall to get inside."

"Climbing the wall?" The woman seemed surprised, hesitated for a moment, and said in an anxious tone, "My family... I heard that this west courtyard has taught outsiders to break in before. I wonder if it is true?"

Mu Yunqi's chest jumped and his ears pricked up.

"It's just scaremongering!" The man dismissed it, "It's just two urchins who climbed up on the wall to steal persimmons and taught me to catch them. After being reprimanded, I dare not do it again." After a pause, "There is nothing long here. If there are thieves who come in, they will definitely return disappointed."

Persimmons...Mu Yunqi raised his eyes and looked at the two dark shadows under the west wall. They are the persimmon trees that the man mentioned, and they are now carrying a lot of fruit.At this moment, hearing the woman's farewell voice in the inner room, after thinking about it, he ran westward and hid silently in the shadow under the persimmon tree.

The door of the house opened, two figures walked out slowly, stopped in front of the door of the person behind, and watched the woman leave.

Hearing that the courtyard door was closed, Mu Yunqi unscrewed the soft ripe fruit that had already been picked in his hands, let go of the branches, and made a rustling sound, although it was slight, it was enough to alarm those who wanted to be alarmed.

The man under the moon really turned around: "I don't know His Majesty is here, but I hope to forgive my sin."

Mu Yunqi played with the fruit in his hand, neither moving nor making a sound.

The man approached: "It's cool outside, your majesty and ministers can come in and drink tea, okay?" It seemed to be coaxing a child.

Mu Yunqi sneered: "I don't want to drink tea, but I want to taste this persimmon from your house, whether it really lives up to its appearance!"

"No!" The man rushed forward to snatch it, but it was too late, he glanced away, and the persimmon was missing a hole!He was so shocked that his face turned livid: "How can your majesty do something reckless? You know you can't eat this thing, but you want to play with your life?"

Mu Yunqi struggled to swallow the soft and glutinous flesh in his mouth, but shook his head: Although it is sweet, it is as soft as a ball of cotton wool, and it is boring to eat. Even if you can't taste it for many years, it's no pity.Twirling his fingers that were sticky from the persimmon juice, he looked impatient: "It's Yin Che who can't eat persimmons, not me, why are you in such a hurry?"

But he was pulled away by the man: "Your Majesty, like King Jia, cannot eat persimmons since childhood, otherwise he will suffer from abdominal pain, vomit, and even faint. Everyone in this palace knows it! I saw His Majesty vomit after eating persimmons. Child's play? Find an imperial physician immediately!"

But Mu Yunqi grabbed him, rubbed his sticky fingers against his sleeves, and listened lazily: "Look at me right now, but I feel unwell?"

The man was in a hurry: "It's just that the time has not come!"

"I've never been poisoned, I just pretended it!" Mu Yunqi suddenly said loudly, as if venting, "Yinche likes to eat sweets, and every autumn he goes to the back garden to steal persimmons, but he can't eat them, so you can always follow them." Behind me, never leave, I..." Turning my eyes away, "I have no interest in leisure, I just want to tease the palace people, but you are so stupid to take this seriously." After saying that, she threw him away, and went back under the tree again. Twist a fruit and stuff it into the mouth, which obviously proves that the preface is true.

Seeing him dumbfounded, Mu Yun Qiji gnawed on the persimmon by himself, but this one might not be ripe, and his mouth was slightly astringent, making it hard to swallow.

"Astringent, don't eat it, I believe you." The man stepped forward and took down the persimmon that the teacher had gnawed for half a day: "Why do you bother yourself with these old things?"

Mu Yunqi took a step back, with provocative eyes all over his eyes: "I like to make trouble without reason! I have been like this since I was a child, because no one likes me except my mother. You just dare not speak out, but you are already tired of me, right?"

"Your Majesty!" Shao Jingheng's voice was dull, and he sighed: "Your Majesty should know that since childhood, His Majesty has rejected people thousands of miles away, and others can't really get close to them. Now, why do you blame yourself and belittle yourself?"

Mu Yunqi flicked his sleeves and remained silent.

There were two cat meows from the corner of the yard, and it seemed that they couldn't find a way out, and they were a little anxious.

It was windy and a little cold.

He was finally pulled into the house.Under the lamp, allowing him to dry his freshly washed hands, Mu Yunqi was bored and stared at the paperweight in front of Pisces holding a lotus, suddenly: "Jing Heng, do you regret that night?"

There was a moment of silence.

"Do not."

"Me neither." Mu Yunqi licked his lips, withdrew his hand and raised his chin: "Jing Heng, what are we now?"

He raised his head, with a gentle light in his eyes: "What Your Majesty says is what it is."

However, Mu Yunqi didn't see joy, but his eyes were blurred, he thought for a long time, and suddenly grabbed the hand holding the handkerchief: "Jing Heng, you send Gu Lianyou away, and don't marry a bride, okay?" This attitude reminded Shao Jingheng of many old scenes, all of which were related to that little man. However, at that time, even if he wanted something from others, His Royal Highness was bossy and arrogant, and it was really difficult to beg with the dewy eyes in front of him. , people who are nervous about their voices are mixed together...

There was another moment of silence.

"Okay!" Shao Jingheng sneered, the light in his eyes becoming softer and softer, "Gu E will have to get out sooner or later, since His Majesty has something to say, I should plan as soon as possible. As for that marriage, I have already become the target of public criticism, and the Ding family must be too." Ordinary, deeply disturbed by it, and this was not my father's original intention, so it is better to retreat and seek a better breakup."

"You——you really think so?" Knowing that he heard correctly, Mu Yunqi still couldn't believe it.

"Naturally!" The man smiled and took his clean and clean hand, rubbing it with relief, "But, Your Majesty must also answer my request—"
