Princess of the Past and Present
Chapter 20 Sword Dance · Winning and Losing
Two days later, the sixth prince, Zhe Kan, took a few books and followed Mu Jin's carriage to the Prince's Mansion.
The housekeeper sent someone to serve tea, and then went to invite the princess himself.
Mo Shuang, who was playing the piano, was a little curious when she heard that the sixth prince asked to see her.It was not easy to keep people waiting, so Dong Ling put away the piano and went to the front hall to meet the Sixth Prince.
Entering the front hall, he found that His Royal Highness was also there, drinking tea with a straight face.
Zhe Kan opened a bag, and there were three books in it, "This king got a few good books, but he didn't know the way, and after reading it several times, he didn't understand much, so he went to the prince's mansion with the cheek, so that the princess would give it to the king. Make a point."
Mo Shuang glanced at the three books, "My lord has indeed found the wrong person. Yin has always practiced Taoism without seeking a deep understanding, so how dare I mention something to my lord."
Zhe Kan responded, "I don't want to stick to words, so I can take this opportunity to learn more about Taoism with the princess."
"Taoism is natural, but cultivation of Taoism focuses on a word of enlightenment, which can only be experienced and comprehended by oneself."
Being rejected by Taoism twice, Zhe Kan laughed at himself: "I also know that I am not the material for Taoism. It is human nature for the princess to not teach me."
"My lord thought too much, Yin really doesn't have that ability."
Mu Jin who was quietly drinking tea at the side raised the corners of his lips and glanced lightly at Zhe Kan, "Brother Huang, if you don't understand Taoism, go to a nearby Taoist temple, I'm afraid you won't be taught by an expert." Is it?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Zhe Kan's face, and then he said seriously: "This king just thinks that the Crown Princess has profound attainments in Taoism, so the first thing that comes to mind is him."
Mo Shuang said: "That's just the prince's flattery."
Mu Jin answered, speaking to Mo Shuang, "I also feel that Brother Huang is flattering me, but Brother Huang insists on coming, so I can't refuse, right?"
As they sang together, Zhe Kan suddenly felt like he was throwing a stone at his foot. That day when he met Mu Jin, he said that he wanted to come to the princess to learn more about Taoism. Getting close to Mo Shuang embarrasses Mu Jin on the spot.
He knew about the discord between Mu Jin and Mo Shuang, but unexpectedly, the two of them joined forces to embarrass him!
Seeing that the situation was not right, Zhe Kan had no choice but to leave the Prince's Mansion in despair.
After Zhe Kan left, Mu Jin took a sip of the tea, his expression was full of satisfaction, and then he was startled when he met Mo Shuang's face, and then quickly turned his head away.
Mo Shuang stood up, "I will leave."
Mo Shuang turned around and left the front hall, Mu Jin looked at his back as he left, and an invisible smile floated on his lips unconsciously.
After drinking a cup of tea slowly, he was about to go back to the study to do some business, when he saw Mo Shuang practicing his sword, so he asked someone to fetch the sword.After a somersault, he went up again.
Landing three steps away from Moshuang, the sword in his hand was pointed at him, "This time, I will definitely win you!"
Mo Shuang said with a slight smile between her eyebrows: "This time, how much does Your Highness want me to do?"
"Nonsense, of course I will do my best!" After finishing speaking, Mu Jin picked up a sword flower and walked briskly to meet him.
Mo Shuang didn't move at all. When his sword came in front of him, he made a slight movement. He just turned his body slightly and avoided the sword. Mu Jin attacked again and again, and Mo Shuang could dodge with just a slight movement. How will he make moves.
Mu Jin jumped into the air, trying to attack from above, but Mo Shuang easily dodged again, and took advantage of Mu Jin's defense when he landed, and knocked out his sword.
His own swordsmanship is not as good as his. Mu Jin has long been aware of himself, but he did not expect the gap between the two of them to be so large.
Mu Jin went to pick up the sword on the ground, pointed at him again, "Come again!"
Again, same thing.
Seeing that the sword in his hand was struck out by the same move, Mu Jin was furious, "You..." He hesitated to speak.
Mo Shuang held the sword and cupped her hands, "Accept."
Seeing his calm face, the anger in my heart slowly subsided again.
Turning around and going back to the study, the oncoming housekeeper saw His Highness the Crown Prince from a distance and stood aside, and greeted him when he came to him.
"The old slave has seen His Highness."
Mu Jin stopped in front of him, and suddenly had a strange idea in his mind, and ordered: "All the meals tonight must add minced meat, remember, it's everything." The following words were specially emphasized .
"This..." The old butler was thinking about adding minced meat, what would the princess eat.
"Why, didn't you hear what I said clearly?"
"The old slave will go and order."
"Wait."
The old butler stopped, bowed and asked, "What else does Your Highness have to say?"
"If I see a dish on the table tonight or the rice is not mixed with minced meat, I will ask you."
"Yes." The old housekeeper bowed and replied.Thinking in his heart, His Royal Highness has always been very serious, but something seems wrong these days.
When it was time for dinner, Mu Jin arrived at the dining hall early, followed by Mo Shuang.
After being seated, Mu Jin looked at the few vegetarian dishes mixed with minced meat, and then looked at the bowl of white rice mixed with minced meat in front of him, feeling very good.
Mo Shuang picked up the bowl of white rice mixed with minced meat without changing her expression, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a chopstick and put it into her mouth.
Mu Jin ate with gusto.
When Mo Shuang left the table, half of the bowl of rice was left, and he didn't use the chopsticks much for the vegetarian dishes.
Today, Mu Jin lost two consecutive sword fights with him within five strokes. He was really not convinced, so he thought of such a way to tease him.
However, looking at the rice left in his bowl, Mu Jin was inexplicably suffocated, not because he didn't finish the meal, but because he only ate a little, how could it be enough to satisfy his hunger?
Feeling guilty, he ordered his servants later, "Cook a bowl of lighter porridge for the Crown Princess and send it over."
Half an hour later, the maid brought a bowl of steaming porridge to Moshuang's study.
Dong Ling was feeling strange, "I remember you didn't say you want porridge."
The servant girl said: "His Royal Highness asked the servants to send it over."
Dong Ling was slightly surprised, and looked back at his young master, "Young master, this..."
Mo Shuang, who was copying with a pen, remained calm and did not raise her head, "Let's put it down."
Dong Ling went over to take the tray from the maidservant's hand, and said, "Thank you, I'll just send this bowl back later."
"The slaves retire."
Dong Ling held the tray steady with one hand, and tidied up an empty space beside the desk, "My lord, what do you think His Royal Highness is thinking? He deliberately teased you for dinner today, so that you couldn't eat, and then sent someone to deliver it to you." Here is the white porridge, is this an apology or not?"
As he said that, Dong Ling suddenly looked at the bowl of white porridge, "It's better to say that this porridge looks bland, but actually there are a lot of meaty ingredients added."
Mo Shuang put down her pen, put aside the words she just wrote, "Bring it here."
Dong Ling hesitated for a while, "My lord, you have a bad spleen and stomach, and you can't eat meat, so I'll go to the kitchen to cook a bowl of porridge for you later."
"No, just eat this bowl."
Dong Ling pursed her lips and held it in front of him.Mo Shuang picked up the spoon and took a bite. It was indeed an extremely light porridge.
Mo Shuang ate up the porridge, and Dong Ling put away the bowl.I really don't understand why His Highness the Crown Prince repeatedly forced his son to eat meaty food.
When turning back, he passed by the prince's study room, thinking that his son would not disobey His Highness the Prince's intentions, and if His Royal Highness intensifies the next time and makes Mo Shuang eat meat, something big will happen.So bit the bullet and knocked on the door of the study.
The people inside responded, and after Dong Ling entered, Mu Jin was reading the official documents, looked up at her, and asked casually, "What's the matter?"
Dong Ling clasped her hands together, feeling that His Royal Highness is a serious person, and she was still a little nervous, she said weakly, "Young servant, I want to tell His Highness that my young master has been weak and sick since he was a child, and his spleen and stomach have always been bad, so he can only eat If you eat something lighter, you will vomit."
Mu Jin was taken aback. He always thought that he didn't eat meat because he grew up in a Taoist temple and was used to light meals, but he didn't expect this to be the case.Then he ate half a bowl of rice mixed with minced meat tonight, did he hold on?
Mu Jin looked down at the official document, but his thoughts were not on it.Giving him meaty meals was just to tease him, and there was no great malice in it.But when he thought that he was weak and would vomit after eating meaty things, he felt uncomfortable as if something was blocked.
Dong Ling lowered his head and bowed, "I'm done speaking, please leave."
After returning to the room, Mu Jin saw Mo Shuang and wanted to ask in his heart, since you can't eat meat, why do you have to be brave?But it was hard to say it, and I couldn't say it in the end. After all, I was always the one who did the wrong thing.
Regarding Mu Jin's postponement of the wedding, although Yuan Yuzhi said that she could wait, but in her heart she wished to marry him at the next moment.
In the past few days, she had trouble sleeping and eating, and finally came up with a plan.If she had had skin-to-skin relationship with Mu Jin, the wedding date would probably not be postponed any longer.
With this idea in mind, I planned step by step how to realize it.
That evening, Yuan Yuzhi took the cakes she made to the Prince's Mansion, nominally to give Mu Jin a taste of the cakes she made, but in fact she had other ideas.
Sure enough, before the sun went down, the sky was covered with dark clouds. After a while, a thunderbolt came down, and raindrops the size of soybeans fell down.
Yuan Yuzhi stood at the door looking at the pouring rain, with a hint of secret joy, turned her head and frowned and said to Mu Jin: "Brother Mu Jin, the rain is so heavy, I don't know when it will stop. Way to go back."
Yuan Yuzhi's words obviously meant to stay overnight at the mansion, Mu Jin pondered and said: "I will ask someone to clean up a room in the palace, if it rains heavily and can't go back, I will stay at the mansion for the time being."
Yuan Yuzhi said, "Thank you, Brother Mu Jin."
As Yuan Yuzhi wished, the rain continued without a break.The servants quickly cleaned up a wing room, and Yuan Yuzhi led the maid to have a look, and she was very satisfied, and more importantly, it was not far from Mu Jin's study.
The housekeeper sent someone to serve tea, and then went to invite the princess himself.
Mo Shuang, who was playing the piano, was a little curious when she heard that the sixth prince asked to see her.It was not easy to keep people waiting, so Dong Ling put away the piano and went to the front hall to meet the Sixth Prince.
