Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Mu Ci climbed ashore, wrapped a white cotton towel with He Shun's help, threw Emperor Deguang into the pool, and said lightly, "Thank you, third brother, I'm done washing and getting dressed."

Emperor Deguang: "..." If you use it, you will lose the little brother Jiu.

"Hey, my hair is still wet... put on a cloak and go out." Emperor Deguang said worriedly.

Mu Ci waved his hand casually: "Understood, you wash up quickly, the banquet has already started, and you said to help me block people." Mu Ci stopped and asked, "Do you have a change of clothes?"

"Yes, there are always two sets on the royal car, someone should have brought them over." Emperor Deguang said.Yes, it has been sent to the lounge.

After Emperor Deguang washed and dressed, he hurried to Ziwei Hall, the main banquet hall. Most of the invited people arrived and took their seats in order. Because Emperor Deguang had not arrived, everyone just ate snacks and did not serve food.

As soon as Emperor Deguang arrived, everyone stood up and bowed to greet him.Mu Ci was already sitting at the main seat, waving to him: "Third Brother, come this way!"

Emperor Deguang smiled all over his face and walked quickly to Mu Ci's side. The two brothers sat side by side.Su Yan's eyelids twitched when he was invited, but he thought that the King of Chu was sitting side by side with the late Emperor in the palace, so he didn't say anything on such a big occasion.Others also turned a blind eye...Emperor Deguang himself didn't mind.

The two brothers sat together affectionately.Next to Mu Ci were Mou Yu and Mu Ruosong, and Prince Xian was talking beside him, with a "little tail" behind him. Everyone knew that this should be Chaoyang's weak and miraculously recovered son.It's just strange that the child and the king of Chu were talking and laughing, which also reflected Mu Ci's closeness with everyone in Prince Ding's residence from the side.

In the main hall, King Ding's whole family was present, and three long tables were full.King Qinghe sat at a table with his eldest son Mu Yunge; King Guangling brought his son Mu Chengxin; before King Changshan arrived, his younger brother Mu Yongqing was represented; Guangti and his nephew Mu Guangxiao are here.

These princes and princes have all dealt with Mu Ci, and the juniors of the clan also like Mu Ci.

Among them, Mu Yunge was taught by Mu Ci in the "Confucian Temple and Martial Temple" incident. He is grateful and admires him, and feels that he can be a good teacher and helpful friend.

Mu Chengxin and Mu Guangti almost became Mu Ci's servants. Mu Chengxin loved Mu Ci's beauty so much, he cried and wanted to stay in the palace as a servant, but Mu Ci saw him as simple and detached , not suitable to be in the palace, and was sent out by Quanxu Quanwei, because of this, Mu Chengxin loves Mu Ci even more, is kind and gentle, and always looks at Mu Ci with star eyes.

Mu Guangti deliberately offended Mu Ci in order to protect himself and leave the palace, but Mu Ci didn't make things difficult and released him generously.

Mu Yongqing and Mu Guangxiao once had dinner with Mu Ci.

At the long table in the front row, there was Mu Xiang, the sixth prince who was adopted by the late emperor and became a loyal king, sitting and chatting with the seventh prince Huainan Wang Muyou, and there was a smile on Mu Xiang, who was always gloomy.

Emperor Deguang noticed that his fifth younger brother Muyi, the king of Anshun County, had not arrived.Emperor Deguang searched around the consort of the princess, but he did not see Sun Zhe, the son-in-law of Princess Yongjia, and there would be no Yongjia among the female relatives who wanted to come to the backyard for a banquet.

Emperor Deguang knew that the ninth brother had always been a person who could do whatever he wanted and would never compromise for the sake of face.And the two uneasy people from home might be a nuisance... But even so, Emperor Deguang still sighed.

Mu Ci's five senses were keen, and he knew the meaning of Emperor Deguang's sigh without even guessing. He just didn't know, and asked Emperor Deguang to say the toast for him.This was already mentioned in the invitation letter written by Mu Ci himself. Emperor Deguang did not refuse, but said many blessings eloquently, and then announced the opening of the banquet.

Delicious delicacies are delivered to the table like flowing water. Because the sun is right, it is clear who likes what to eat and what is taboo. The dishes that are placed in front of everyone are all favorite dishes.Delicate and delicious, but not many.But no one dared to say in person that there are few dishes, and that the king of Chu is stingy—the imperial censor is not just putting on a good show.After all, diligence and thrift are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.Not only the palace, but the whole Tianjing city and even the whole world know that the king of Chu is good at eating delicious food, but he has a rule that "the amount is small but the quality is fine, and waste is not allowed." This made him increase his reputation a lot.

Everyone is aware of the rules of the Chu Palace, one should follow the Romans in the countryside.But if the upper-class people eat so much that the bottom of the plate is exposed, they will be laughed at for their big belly and ugly eating.But this hesitation disappears after the chopsticks are dropped-the dishes are indeed novel and delicious.There was no one who was foolishly hungry and offended the King of Chu. Mu Ci took the lead, Emperor Deguang followed, and everyone ate up. Anyway, the whole hall was the same, and no one felt embarrassed by following the crowd mentality.

After the banquet, the banquet did not dissipate so quickly. The Yuanshou Palace was famous for being exquisite and beautiful, and the king of Chu did not change much. Everyone became interested in visiting the garden, and went to spend time together in twos and threes according to their usual friendship.

The top figures like King Ding used to visit this mansion, they were not curious, they were quite old, or they were still weak like King Ding, so they all moved to the warm pavilion, where they basked in the warm autumn sun that shone through the glazed tiles.Mou Yu was older, so he greeted this group of high-ranking family members. Seeing that the Nuan Pavilion was comfortable, he ordered people to call Mu Ci too, and don't go out to blow the air... It has been blowing for a long time in the morning.

Mu Ci never tried to hold back, so she also went to the Nuan Pavilion and found a comfortable place to nest.He doesn't like to socialize, which means he doesn't like to chat with people or thinks that snakes are a waste of time, but he doesn't dislike interacting with young people. Mu Ruosong knows Mu Ci very well, so he tried his best to invite many young people to come and accompany him.

The young people who wanted to make friends with Mu Ci naturally followed.

For some reason, Mu Yunge and Le Shu had a very happy conversation, and several young people with good literary talents gathered together to chat about papers.

Mu Chengxin and Mu Yongqing, who were younger and didn't like writing, talked around Mu Ci.Especially Mu Chengxin, if he hadn't been told by his father and Emperor Deguang was with his idol, he would have grabbed Mu Ci's thigh and wagged his tail.

Xian Shizi brought Fang Ruyuan and Fang Ruyao, the elder sons of Ningyuan Duke's Mansion, over here.These two are brothers and sisters, Fang Shi, the wife of the late Zhen Shizi of Prince Ding's Mansion. Xian Shizi has always taken good care of them, so he brought them over to introduce Mu Ci, and said with a smile: "Ah Ci, speaking of it, the two This is your cousin too."

Indeed, Zhen Shizi's wife, Fang's family, and the two brothers of the Fang family were both born to Tianshou Emperor's younger sister, Jing and the eldest princess, aren't they Mu Ci's cousins?

Mu Ruosong, who was standing beside Mu Ci, felt a little embarrassed, but tried his best to maintain a smile, and saluted, "Nephew has seen uncle."

These two are Mu Ruosong's biological uncles.

After all, Mu Ruosong is Mu Ci's imperial nephew according to his father's line, and Mu Ci's cousin and nephew according to his mother's line, or blood relatives.

This relationship is messed up...

Emperor Deguang who was by Mu Ci's side was aware of the close relationship between Mu Ci and Mu Ruosong, after all, both of them had passed the road before the late emperor.Emperor Deguang saw that Mu Ruosong's smile was a little far-fetched, and quickly observed Mu Ci's expression, and found that he was as calm as ever, as if he didn't care about the ethical norms that can overwhelm people.

But the relationship between the two...in case it is exposed...

Emperor Deguang couldn't help the blue veins on his forehead twitching wildly, but subconsciously knew that the exposure of his love affair would do little harm to his ninth brother, and he had been the emperor for a long time. .

Mu Ci looked at the two brothers of the Fang family, one was an elegant and handsome middle-aged scholar with fair skin;He thought it was interesting, so he nodded with the two brothers of the Fang family.

Emperor Deguang saw his head shaking, and the careless man suddenly remembered what he had neglected, touched Jiudi's head, and frowned: "The hair is still damp." Then he ordered Mu Ruosong, "Get the cloak quickly. "

Mu Ruosong was so worried that he left the Nuan Pavilion quickly.

Mu Ci said: "It's okay." Then he touched Emperor Deguang's temples, "Your hair is still wet, why don't you wipe it more?"

Do you have no time?Emperor Deguang did not explain, but said: "How can I compare, my health is better..."

Fang Ruyao couldn't see the undercurrent. He only thought that the two brothers of the Tian family were interesting, and his voice was as loud as Hong Zhong: "Your Majesty, you and the king of Chu fell into the water? Why are your hair wet?" After finishing speaking , was hit by Fang Ruyuan with an elbow, but he didn't respond at all, and gave his elder brother a look, "Why did you hit me again?"

Emperor Deguang remained expressionless and serious, and did not answer.

On the contrary, Mu Ci said generously: "It's not that I fell into the water. My third brother and I just made mud in Wanjia's farmland and took a bath together. My hair was washed by my third brother. I don't know how to wash it. Almost didn't make me bald." After speaking, he gave Emperor Deguang a white look, as if he hadn't let go of his anger.

With such a cute and lively appearance, Emperor Deguang didn't know whether to be distressed or angry.

In fact, the people in the warm pavilion listened with pricked ears, and they froze for a moment, not daring to speak, and the silence was like the night.

Wang Ziguang praised Mu Ci behind Prince Xian's back: This is a master. He is frank and makes people doubtless, and points out the close relationship between himself and the emperor.

Human psychology is very strange. If you hide it, it will easily make people think wrongly, especially when it is related to Mu Ci who is too monstrous, there will always be a little fantasy.But seeing Mu Ci's calm attitude, everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with them. How is the relationship between the brothers? It's nothing to take a bath together or wash their hair.

What's the point of this, it's too late to cover up, how can it be possible to say it carelessly?

All of a sudden, those who just wondered why the emperor went to Wanjia Tianyuan to find someone for so long and changed his clothes suddenly realized.

Most of them have seen the Wanjia Garden just now, that mud...

And... who said that the king of Chu and the emperor were at odds?

What a good relationship they have, and they even go to the garden and take a bath together.

Mu Ruosong was heartbroken, and rushed over, shook off a hooded cloak and put it on Mu Ci, while blaming himself for being careless and not paying attention, while fastening the lace of the cloak, feeling anxious... Mu Ci The body is too weak, and being ill is very debilitating. I have only grown a little meat recently, and I am afraid that I will lose weight again.

Mu Ruosong's hands were trembling due to various emotions intertwined, and the belt couldn't be fastened properly, so he was even more anxious... His expression was on the verge of tears.

Mu Ci grabbed his hand expressionlessly, let go of it naturally, and tied the belt by herself.

Le Shu, who has been paying attention to this side, has come over, fastened Mu Ci's cloak with dexterous fingers, untied Mu Ci's hair, put on the hat to wrap it up, and said softly: "Master, you are so easy to get sick. , sincerity makes us feel bad, doesn’t it?”

Le Shu's appearance not much inferior to Mu Ci's made him attract the attention, and now he was almost close to Mu Ci, with a gentle smile, eyes as soft as spring water, full of affection.

Both are great beauties, very attractive.

Many people had just become suspicious because of Mu Ruosong's overreaction, and now they shifted their attention—it's not uncommon for rich and powerful families to have a few beautiful pets, and Le Shu is young and beautiful, with a natural temperament, which is the best of the best. Everyone is speculating on the peachy side.The son of aristocrat who had just had a good chat with Le Shu, he used to think that Le Shu, who was noble, elegant and elegant, was a son of a certain big family in the locality, but now he sees... unexpectedly...

——I originally set my heart to Mingyue, but Mingyue fell into the ditch.

These rather noble children of the rich and powerful have all extinguished their closeness to Le Shu, and even showed some contempt in their eyes.

A trace of sadness flashed across Mu Yunge's eyes... It wasn't the first time he saw Le Shu look at Mu Ci with that kind of gaze, so... is it really like this?

Because of his outstanding appearance, Le Shu has long been used to all kinds of gazes. He was a little resentful at first, but now he doesn't care at all—he has a clear heart, is upright and is not afraid of the shadows, but has a holy and holy temperament, and he is very fond of those who misunderstand him. for contempt.Instead, he remembered that his father respected him and did not treat him wantonly like ordinary dignitaries.

Mu Ruosong looked at the pair of Bi people, and then saw Le Shu's courage to not hide, let alone care about other people's eyes, and was stabbed in the heart.

He never dared to be so frank...

He knew that Mu Ci was not a casual person, and that he and Le Shu must be innocent, but for some reason he couldn't hold back, and with the mentality of getting along with him, he casually reached out to tidy up Mu Ci's hat, touched his wet hair, and told Le Shu to Shu: "Go and make some bowls of ginger tea."

Le Shu smiled and nodded, and got up naturally to give orders, but the smile that always hung on the corner of his mouth disappeared when he left the door of the warm pavilion.

Mu Ci's face was always calm, he generously and calmly grabbed Mu Ruosong's hand and patted it to comfort him, then let go.

Mu Ruosong's gaze was still glued to Mu Ci's face, and he was poked in the waist by that kid Wang Ziguang before he came back to his senses and tried his best to adjust his expression and pretend nothing had happened.As everyone knows, this first love whose emotional experience is like a blank sheet of paper does not know that love and coughing cannot be concealed.It is not enough to insist on calling your sweetheart "His Royal Highness" outside, lest you accidentally call out "Ruo Que".

A simple look at each other between lovers, a flash of ambiguous sparks in the eyes, can make people see the clues.

First, Xian Shizi, who claimed to be a wise man, felt a little bit in his heart.

My mother!Is it really what I think?

At this time, Mu Ci's eyes were already focused, and Ding Wang, who was sitting at the table eating snacks due to exhaustion, was also looking there.He is even more experienced, so he naturally didn't let go of the attitude of his eldest grandson.Naturally, he understood what that meant, but he didn't reveal anything, and continued to eat dim sum without even shaking his eyebrows.

Emperor Deguang sighed, not worried about the ninth younger brother, because the ninth younger brother's extreme wisdom and closeness to demons had left a strange impression in his heart that "whoever is unlucky, the ninth younger brother will be fine".He only sighed that Mu Ruosong was too young, his jealousy was really strong, and he couldn't hold back his breath, which was enough to give the ninth brother a headache.
