Chapter 26
"Ah Baoluo gauze tent suddenly sat up a petite figure, a black hair scattered in the plain white bedclothes embroidered with large Magnolia.
The palace maid trotted over from the corner of the bedroom and asked, "what's the matter with you, Diji?"
The girl put a pair of soft hands on her neck, her fingers trembled slightly, "Peiyun, someone wants to strangle me..."
The gauze curtain lifted, and a plain and gentle face came in. Fortunately, there was only a silk quilt specially prepared for summer on the bed, crumpled up a ball. The noble emperor Ji sat stiffly with her knees in her arms, desperately grasping something in front of her neck, and her eyes were full of panic.
Seeing that the skin under her collar was scratched by her fingers, Pei Yun quickly pulled her hand away: "don't be afraid, Diji It's just a nightmare. "
Duanyang emperor Ji heaved a long breath, lying on her back on the bed, her loose hair pressed under her body, and her pretty face was full of fatigue.
Three corners of the room are decorated with beautifully carved cauldrons. Inside the cauldron are large pieces of ice, which are slowly rising with white air. Even if the scorching sun outside, there are still bursts of wind in Fengyang palace, cool and comfortable.
Pei Yun held the gauze curtain: "Diji, do you want to wash and wash?"
The man on the bed turned over and frowned slightly. There was a trace of impatience on her pretty face: "dressing? What's the matter today? "
"In the afternoon, imperial concubine Zhao is going to Xingshan temple to pray. She wants to be accompanied by her concubine..."
Before the words were heard, the pupils of emperor Duanyang's concubine were constricted. One of them turned over and sat up, his back firmly against the wall, trembling all over: "I'm not going to Xingshan temple!"
"Diji..." Pei Yun was startled, "but this is not what he said when he paid a visit to the princess three days ago?"
The strange voice seemed to reverberate in Duanyang's ear, calling in her ear: "goddess..."
"Who's talking?"
The ancient trees in the temple are towering, the moss is covered under the green slate, the wind blows and leaves fall, making a rustle sound, and the bronze bells hanging on the eaves vibrate.
"Goddess, follow the villain. I've been waiting for you for a long time
The surrounding scene changes rapidly, the cornice in the temple turns into dense forest quickly, and then comes to a large area of wasteland. The mountains rise and fall like waves, and the green wheat fields are endless. Finally, he returned to the temple.
"What is this doing?" She looked around, the same as when she first came, but it was very dark, the sky seemed to be covered with a huge cloth, airtight, and there was a dead silence around her.
"Just now, the goddess is in the wrong place Now that's right. "
"Who are you and why do you call me goddess?"
The voice began to laugh, and then rose and fell to keep up with countless laughs. Some of these laughs were thick, some were old, some were young, and there were as many as 100 people.
She took a step back and looked back. The ground was full of people kneeling on it. They bowed down devoutly on the ground, as if worshipping her as a God: "the goddess has arrived, the ceremony begins."
And then
Duanyang suddenly closed his eyes, unwilling to recall the scene, his tone was full of resentment: "since I went to Xingshan temple with my concubine, I always have nightmares when I come back. I don't want to go to that ghost place any more."
Pei Yun restrained a smile: "emperor Ji, be careful! The Buddha advised people to be good and go to the temple to clear away the dust. Only by calming the mind, how can people have nightmares? "
At this time, the temple belief in Buddhism has become a trend. Regardless of the rank and status of the imperial concubines, they all spontaneously eat fast and chant Buddhism. They spend a lot of money in the temple every year to compare who is more devout. And this ethos was brought up by her biological mother, Princess Zhao.
Anyone can say it, not a daughter.
Duanyang fidgetily rubbed the eyebrow: "I know, make up."
"Duanyang emperor Ji, whose real name is Li Songmin, is the daughter of Zhao family, the first emperor's favorite concubine. Now she's a younger sister, and she's deeply favored by the Emperor..." Miaomiao rummages about the plot in the original book and is interrupted by Mu Sheng. He scoffed in his eyes: "which one of these is not well known?"
Miaomiao retorted angrily: "you are so powerful, but you want to say something new?"
"I sent you out to inquire about the news, and I got back all this nonsense..." He looked at Miaomiao for a long time. "What's the use of you?"
"All right, ah Sheng." Mu Yao lightly put down the teacup and looked at her brother reproachfully. "Miss Ling has no secret of her own. Don't toss her any more."
Even Mu Yao can see that there is something abnormal between these two people recently.
In the past, it seemed to be very harmonious, but these days, it's like a fire / medicine bucket meeting a spark, and they always sneer at each other. Most of the time, the glib Ling Miaomiao wins. And Mu Sheng, she seems to have never seen him like this Obviously bullying a girl.
He walked to the bustling market with the wonderful idea of not knowing the way. After several rounds, he left her alone in the crowd and walked away. After a few hours, he returned to the street and brought back the helpless wandering people.
He asked Ling Miaomiao, a little Jasper who grew up in the boudoir, to inquire in the marketplace. He was satirized by those women who were full of breasts and hips for a whole afternoon. When he came back, he was still disheartened.
Although she doesn't like Ling Miaomiao, she doesn't want her to be in any danger. Mu Sheng's insistence on education made her feel like she was ten years old and could not get through this situation. It made her have a headache.truce. Miaomiao looks white and lies on the red lacquer wood table of the inn.
Sunlight from the half inclined lattice window projected in, outside is the prosperous streets of Chang'an Waiguo, people come and go.
Brush clothes from the creaking two steps up, see Mu sound and sister sitting on one side, then come to sit beside Miaomiao, drink a cup of tea.
"How's it going?" Mu Yao leans forward.
"In the afternoon, Princess Zhao will take Duanyang emperor Ji to Xingshan temple to worship Buddha, and then we will follow in the dark..."
Mu Sheng sneered: "does this princess Zhao think that if she takes a jade medal from Mu family, she can use us as pawns?"
The Mu family, a demon catching family, has been running for the well-being of the people all his life. He never stays for glory, nor will he obey the orders of the high-ranking people, unless he has the jade Medal of the Mu family.
If you have this jade card in your hand, you can mobilize Mu's family to root out evil spirits. Therefore, this jade plate is very precious. All of them are just three pieces. They were given to the people who had been kind to the Mu family.
Princess Zhao has such a piece in her hand. Mu Yao can't tell the origin of the token.
After listening to Mu Sheng's words, Mu Yao's look was obviously not happy: "since we don't think we are elegant, why invite us all the way?"
Mu Sheng looked at Liu Fu's clothes with a smile and said to him skillfully, "it depends on how Mr. Liu negotiated."
Nowadays, demons are rampant in the world, and there is no shortage of alchemists in the palace to catch demons and exorcise ghosts. These alchemists, like canaries, stayed in the palace city for the service of the emperor's family all their lives, and rarely appeared in public.
The court's alchemists despised the people outside the palace. They believed that the highest attainments were in qintianjian, and the aristocratic families were wild.
Naturally, the brothers and sisters who were born in the demon catching family were also disgusted with those respectable and incompetent alchemists.
"Ah Sheng, don't get me wrong." Liu Fuyi explained calmly, "can the empress imperial concubine call qintianjian? It must be something difficult for her. I hope she can deal with it in secret. I don't want to disturb your majesty. "
Muyao nodded and went straight to the theme, "it's strange to hear that since the emperor Duanyang's 18th birthday, she went back to Xingshan temple and came back with nightmares."
Liu Fuyi silently looked out of the window, as if through many buildings, to the continuous ancient temple.
Because Princess Zhao believed in Buddhism, which had a strong driving effect, this wave swept the whole powerful class and even the whole capital.
"When things go to extremes, they always wait for opportunities when people are crazy."
There was a deep worry in his eyes.
Ling Miaomiao pasted it on the cold wall, couldn't insert his mouth, and held out his chopsticks to the gourd chicken on the plate.
Chang'an gourd chicken has a long reputation. Its skin is crisp and crisp, oily but not greasy. Its golden thin layer naturally peels away from the chicken, which makes people salivate.
Unexpectedly, when she was next to the chicken, she stretched out a chopstick across the sky and held her up. Looking up, she saw Mu Sheng's smiling face: "Miss Ling, you've eaten half a chicken."
All of a sudden, Ling Miaomiao blushed: along the way, besides making trouble for Liu Fuyi, she was eating beside her when the leading group was nervous about the case.
Although it is necessary for the plot, it is
Aware that Mu Yao and Liu Fu Yi's eyes fall on her, she shouts her hand back. Mu Sheng's chopsticks kept on, picked up a crisp Golden Chicken Wing and gently put it into her bowl: "why don't you eat it? I remember Miss Ling likes to eat chicken wings. "
The smile in his eyes is like a spring water. Ling Miaomiao feels choked.
Since Mu Sheng asked her to retreat in a hurry and was refused, his trip made it more and more convenient.
On that day, he took her to the morning market to inquire about the news, seduced a group of aunts who sold fish and bought fruit, pushed her into the crowd and turned around.
The group of aunts in front of their chests surrounded her fiercely and asked, "how old is that little gentleman with red lips and white teeth? Married or not? Where have you been? Who are you? "
When she pretended to be a fool to struggle out, her hair was in a mess, walking on the road, as if she had been robbed. And Mu Sheng stood by the side of the road, handed her a mirror from afar, and invited her to have a look at her face with a smile.
Miaomiao sighed.
Liu Fu Yi's expression is very gratified, he encouraged to pat her on the shoulder: "Miaomiao, ah Sheng gave you clip, eat quickly."
He even pulled the confused muyao to stand up: "Yao'er, let's go and pay with me."
Mu Yao, confused, was dragged away by him.
Mu Sheng quietly sat beside her and glared at her face: "delicious?"
"Aren't you bored all the way?" Miaomiao pulled the chicken wings twice.
The meaning of Mu Sheng's smile is not clear: "Miss Ling is very interesting. How can I feel bored?"
Miaomiao snorted: "I know another secret about you. To be fair, I'll tell you another one."
The young man's expression froze for a moment Don't mention your sunflower water any more. ""It's not sunflower water this time." Miaomiao approached him, and a soft voice sounded in his ear, "when I was 15 years old, my chest was only two feet five In a year, it has grown a lot. "
Mu Sheng looked down her neck and subconsciously wanted to see how much she had grown. She immediately put her hands in front of her chest and hid away from him. She glanced at him and said, "where are you looking? I'm not ashamed
“……”
The noise around him suddenly stopped. The uncles and aunts of Chang'an city stopped drinking. Countless eyes of condemnation fell on his face, like a sharp knife. After a while, the voice of pointing began to ring:
"it's very good-looking. I don't want to be an apprentice."
"You can't judge by appearance. The more you look like this, the more..."
"It is..."
"Click." A big man, like a black cloud, beat his sword heavily on the table and stood in front of Ling Miaomiao. He scowled at Lin Miaomiao and said, "Chang'an is especially good. You can't help being wild here."
Mu Sheng looked at his fingers, black eyes almost to fire.
The big man was also angry: "how dare you stare at me?"
Mu Sheng glanced at him coldly. He didn't respond. He stood up and looked behind the man. He pressed the fire way: "Ling Miaomiao, come out."
"Click!" The big man slapped the scabbard on the table, which made the table shake three times. "Boy, don't be too arrogant." Turning to Ling Miaomiao, she comforted him and said, "girl, don't be afraid. You're new here and you're not familiar with the place of life. We Changan people are all from your hometown. Elder brother is in charge of you."
Ling Miaomiao almost burst out with a smile. He poked his head out of the back of his magnificent figure and said with a sincere smile: "thank you, big brother You misunderstood, we are together, he He's playing with me. "
"Really?" The great man is suspicious.
"Really." Miaomiao nodded.
The chivalrous elder brother, who had never met before, picked up the heavy sword and patted her comfortingly. He turned back three times in one step. Every time he turned his head, he would point to Mu Sheng's nose and scold: "be careful with me."
"When you look at it, you are full of bad water"
"don't be wild in Chang'an!"
"Let me see you break your leg again!"
Mu Sheng, with no expression, watched the fierce attack go away. She turned to Ling Miaomiao, who was standing on one side, holding a smile and shaking. Her face was very serious, and her apricot eyes were full of Innocence: "I didn't expect that the people of Chang'an were too enthusiastic."
“……” Mu Sheng's face changed again and again, gritting his teeth and turning around, "it's late, let's go."
This man is never a soft persimmon. If he finds an opportunity, he will fight against the general. His purpose is not clear. It's just that they are invulnerable.
Or stay around to observe.
