It was so easy to wait until the book was finished, and the crowd gradually dispersed, and Mu Xianyu finally led Jiming to squeeze in.As soon as Mo Zhi saw him, his eyes suddenly lit up, he jumped off the chair and threw himself into his arms, tugging at his sleeves and refusing to let go: "It's been a long time..."

"It's the mister's fault—the mister actually came back a long time ago, but he was blocked out just now and couldn't squeeze in..."

Mu Xianyu smiled helplessly, gently rubbed the boy's head in his arms, coaxed him in a warm voice, and then raised his head to look at the smiling old man: "Why did Mr. Nineteen suddenly talk about this—that one?" Isn’t it still about the White Snake?”

"Storytelling is nothing more than a compliment. If the listener changes, the speaker will naturally change."

Mr. Nineteen took a puff of smoke unhurriedly, then slowly exhaled the smoke, and looked meaningfully at Mo Zhi who was sniffing around Mu Xianyu: "I told you that day. , so if we want to talk about the Legend of the White Snake, today it is for him to hear, so naturally we have to talk about the romantic anecdotes of the third master..."

"Did the old gentleman tell the students specifically that day?"

Mu Xianyu couldn't help being slightly stunned, and carefully recalled the story he heard that day, but couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment, so he stopped forcing himself to guess.Shaking his head and chuckling, he thanked Mr. Nineteen again, then leaned slightly and hugged Mo Zhi patiently, "It's getting late, should we go around again, or go home directly?"

But Mo Zhi lost the excitement he had when he first met him, and stood next to him with his lips slightly pursed and his head down. He didn't respond, but shook his head lightly, blinking his eyes.

Mu Xianyu's heart moved slightly, and he took him for a walk outside.Mo Zhi still seemed very obedient, he walked slowly while holding his hand by his sleeve, lowering his head, but his steps became smaller and smaller.Mu Xianyu felt a little uneasy for no reason, turned around and supported his shoulders to stand still, bent down to look carefully, but his heart suddenly tightened.

Those clear eyes were filled with the color of water at some point, the eye sockets were slightly red, and the lips were tightly pursed.Mu Xianyu was so distressed that she couldn't care less about her demeanor, she squatted down in the street, looked up at the young man who was crying whenever she wanted to, and said softly, "What's the matter...it's because Mr. Is it too slow? Next time Mr. will definitely not leave you alone for so long, don't be sad, okay?"

"no……"

Mo Zhi choked and shook his head lightly, pursed his lips and looked at him with tears in his eyes, held back for a while before whispering: "Mr. has other flowers outside..."

He could clearly smell the scent of oleander on Mu Xianyu's cuff, although it was very weak and ethereal, it clearly lingered all the time, obviously it wasn't accidentally rubbed outside.

Oleander can produce very beautiful flowers, the smell is also very fragrant, and even the leaves are very beautiful.Unlike him who can only bloom clusters of small white flowers, a single flower is almost so inconspicuous that no one pays attention to it, and the fragrance is also strange to many people... But the little brother has already accepted his flowers and is at home. After placing his pot, there are still other flowers outside.The more the little flower demon thought about it, the more she felt wronged, tears rolled in her eyes, and she was about to bloom a few flowers on the spot.

"Other flowers?"

Mu Xianyu blinked blankly, feeling that it was difficult to keep up with his little apprentice's train of thought with his own skill.He frowned and thought for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took out a bag of delicate tea cakes from his sleeve: "Is this what you mean? This is tea, not flowers, it's what people use to drink... ..."

This was brought to him by the secret guard who just came to deliver the letter, saying that it was tribute tea brought in from the south, which is most soothing to the liver and nourishing Qi, so the second brother specially asked someone to bring it for him to drink slowly.He came and went just now, and there was only this one thing on his body, and I don't know if this little guy with a sharper nose than anyone else smelled it.

Mo Zhi didn't drink tea, but he knew the smell of tea leaves. Seeing that he took out a delicate paper bag, he took it carefully.Sniffing carefully, the originally dim eyes suddenly regained their brightness, blushed slightly and raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and his brows and eyes curved into a beautiful arc again.

It turned out that my little brother didn't have other flowers outside, but he just used dried flowers to make tea.The innocent little flower demon immediately became happy again, handed back the tea cake in her hand, and reported her discovery like offering a treasure: "There are not only tea leaves in here, but also dried oleander flowers!"

As soon as his words fell, Mu Xianyu's eyes suddenly flashed some unbelievable astonishment, and he grabbed his wrist: "You said - oleander?"

Mo Zhi was taken aback by his reaction, nodded instinctively, pursed his lips, and said in a low voice: "Oleander is very fragrant, there's not much in it, but I shouldn't smell it wrong..."

Mu Xianyu frowned, some solemn thoughts flashed through his eyes, but he focused them all on his eyes again.Gently rubbed Mo Zhi's head, supported his shoulders to stand up and said, "Let's not go around today, and go back with Mr. first, shall we?"

Mo Zhi had always been obedient, so when he heard the words, he took the initiative to grab his sleeve.Mu Xianyu patted his back lightly apologetically, then led him back to the mansion in a hurry, told Ji Mingping to retreat from the crowd, and put the piece of tea cake on the table.

"Your Highness—how about we go to the back kitchen and try with a live chicken or duck..."

After Ming sent his servants away, he quickly turned back, seeing that he was still staring at the piece of tea cake in a daze, but he couldn't help but look sad, and stepped forward to ask softly.

As if Mu Xianyu had just realized it, she shuddered and suddenly sat up straight, raising her hand to open the piece of tea cake.But before touching it, he took it back suddenly, and shook his head slightly with a wry smile: "To be honest with you - I would rather never find out about this..."

Of course he knew that he was an unexpected existence since he was born, and he had long been accustomed to the cynicism in the palace, praising the high and trampling the low, and getting used to being in danger once every three days and getting sick every five days—these are all things he owed from birth. He has always accepted all the debts calmly, without even a single complaint.

But now he has invited himself out of the palace, and An An is hiding in this rumored ominous palace, but the disaster of killing him still follows him like a shadow.Even though he was open-minded enough not to care about who instigated the copper beast that fell on his head, he was still not ready to face the shocking situation of his elder brother personally delivering oleander to him. The fact that people are powerless.

Ji Ming sighed heavily, pulled the tea cake in front of him and opened it, carefully pried off a piece, broke it into pieces, put it into a brand new teapot, and put it on the fire to cook slowly.The tea cake floated up and down in the water, quickly dyed the water a light blue color, and the tea was pleasantly fragrant, no one could see the slightest clue.

Mo Zhi sat on the side with his knees folded, blinked his eyes and looked back and forth twice, suddenly got up and walked over, gently grabbed Mu Xianyu's sleeve, and carefully rubbed into his arms: "I'm sorry. ..."

In so many days, it was the first time he saw such a gloomy and confused expression on his little brother's face. Although he didn't know what the reason was, he could somehow feel that it had something to do with his failure to hold back his temper at that time.The innocent little flower demon was so regretful that she blinked away the water in her eyes, choked up and said in a low voice, "Next time I won't make trouble, sir, you can bring other flowers home, so don't be sad..."

Mu Xianyu was just in a turmoil in his heart, but Mo Zhi suddenly became sad for some reason. He wrapped the young man's thin body in his arms, patted his back and patiently comforted him.Hearing him finish speaking, he couldn't help but opened his eyes slightly in surprise, and after a long while, he couldn't help but laugh, and rubbed Mo Zhi's head helplessly: "It's not because there are other flowers... I won't have any." Don't worry about other flowers."

After all, as long as you get a little closer to those flowers and plants, you will cough and sneeze. In this kind of thing, the rumored and suave third prince is obviously quite guarded - although I don't quite understand why Mo Zhi cares about flowers so much However, when he thought of his act of giving himself a small flower as soon as he came up, Mu Xianyu was naturally willing to give a guarantee that he would definitely be able to do it.

Hearing the little brother's promise unexpectedly, he couldn't help but think of the stories about each other in the story books that the husband told, Mo Zhi's face couldn't stop turning bloody, and he buried his head in his chest embarrassingly, Say nothing and refuse to look up.

Attracted by him, Mu Xianyu couldn't help smiling, and patted the head in his arms lightly.I was about to coax him to go out and play by myself for a while, but suddenly I smelled a strange fragrance, and before I could react, I sneezed violently.

"Your Highness!" Ji Ming was startled, jumped up suddenly, threw his head to the window and looked around, "It's strange...we didn't grow any flowers in our house, did the plum blossoms bloom in some house? early?"

"It's okay, maybe I caught a cold just now..."

The scent disappeared as soon as it appeared, and even Mu Xianyu couldn't help wondering if it was a hallucination.Rubbing the tip of his slightly red nose and waving his hands, he was about to say something to Mo Zhi, but found that the boy who was planning to take root in his arms suddenly jumped up as if being pricked by a needle, clutching his head anxiously After turning back and forth a few times, he rushed out the door in a panic.

"Mo Zhi--"

Mu Xianyu just called out, and the white figure disappeared outside the door.Blinking his eyes blankly, the third prince, who felt as if he had been hit violently, turned his eyes to his servant, and his tone was a bit sad: "The way I sneezed...is it really so scary?"

The author has something to say: shame, shame to bloom! o(*////▽////*)q
