Concubine falling from heaven

Chapter 22
"Hey! Let go! What are you doing!" Meng Zihan glared at Mu Xuanchen, and kept breaking his hands away.

Unexpectedly, Mu Xuanchen didn't use the other hand at all, and with only one hand, he held Meng Zihan's hands behind his back without any effort.

"This king is here to continue your nightmare!"

Meng Zihan's heart suddenly lifted, and Mu Xuanchen's words seemed extremely calm, but the anger in his eyes completely expressed his mood at the moment.It seems that he heard what Caiyun said at the door just now, what a disaster!
In desperation, he could only warn: "Don't think that you can do whatever you want because you are a prince."

Meng Zihan's words caused waves on his calm face just now, his eyebrows instantly gathered between them, and the hand that was holding Meng Zihan couldn't help but increase his strength.As the saying goes, a person who knows current affairs is a hero, if you provoke him again in this situation, I am afraid that you will hear a "click" sound from your hand.

After clearing his throat, he immediately changed his tone: "His Royal Highness, please speak up if you have something to say! Let me go first!"

As if feeling her pain, Mu Xuanchen lightened the strength in her hand, but still didn't let go completely, and never left her eyes for a moment: "Say! Where did you go?"

"I... just go out for a stroll!" Meng Zihan didn't dare to touch Mu Xuanchen's sharp eyes at all, obviously he didn't do anything, but he turned his head aside as if he had done something wrong.

"What else?" Mu Xuanchen was still pressing hard.

Meng Zihan tried his best to keep a distance between himself and Mu Xuanchen, but Mu Xuanchen didn't intend to let her stay away from him at all.

"What else? What else can there be?" Meng Zihan didn't understand why he was stuttering at this moment, and his voice became softer and softer.

"Who did you meet on the road?" Mu Xuanchen reminded intentionally or unintentionally.

"I met a lot of people on the road. The fat ones, the thin ones, the tall ones, the short ones, which ones are you talking about? But I don't guarantee that I can remember them." Meng Zihan purposely went around in circles.

A gust of heat from Mu Xuanchen suddenly hit his face, Meng Zihan quietly raised his eyes to see that he was angry.

"What kind of market can you go shopping until dark? Tell me, where else have you been?" Mu Xuanchen asked coldly.

Hearing this tone, Meng Zihan didn't dare to resist, but he also felt aggrieved, and muttered: "Where I go is none of your business, why do you care so much? I haven't seen where you have been, why are you still with me?" !"

What Meng Zihan said made Mu Xuanchen feel that it was an anecdote in the world. As a prince, he still wanted to report his whereabouts to her.

There was a silence in the room again, which made Mengzi tremble with fear.

"Can you turn on the lamp first?" Meng Zihan was afraid of the dark, and she felt insecure in this dark room.

Mu Xuanchen finally let her go.And the moment he was released, Meng Zihan let out a long breath of relief.But... But what about Huozhezi?It was obviously dropped nearby just now, why didn't I find it after searching for a long time?
Seeing Meng Zihan groping around on the ground, Mu Xuanchen was puzzled: Huozhezi is obviously nearby, why can't she see it?And she was so afraid of the dark just now?

He wanted to hand her the fire folder, but seeing that she was still looking for it anxiously, Mu Xuanchen withdrew his hand again.Gently blowing on the fire fold a few times, the whole room was filled with the faint light at once.

Seeing the bright light, Meng Zihan immediately got up and looked back, only to find that Mu Xuanchen had already lit the candle.

Also because of the bright light, Mu Xuanchen saw the sweat on Meng Zihan's forehead and his somewhat pale face, which was clearly frightened.

The room was terribly startled just now, and the looming black shadow made Meng Zihan's whole heart go up.

She is afraid of the dark, and she doesn't know when it started. It seems that she has been like this since she came here. If she is outside, with the moonlight shining, she can barely hold on, but as long as she is in a completely dark room, she will be scared. His face was as white as paper, and his body was weak.

When she was hugged by Mu Xuanchen at the beginning, for some reason, Meng Zihan felt that she had forgotten the horror of the darkness, but when he let go of his hand and the room became silent again, she began to tremble with fear, her whole heart seemed to rise to her throat Eye.

Mu Xuanchen's hand involuntarily reached out to Meng Zihan's face, wanting to wipe the sweat off her forehead, but Meng Zihan retreated three feet in panic.The eyebrows that were originally stretched were twisted together again because of Meng Zihan's actions, and the retracted hands were leaning against the back and clenched tightly, as if trying to restrain himself.

The fright he suffered from the darkness just now made Meng Zihan's feet unsteady and he almost fainted on the ground.This time, Mu Xuanchen caught her again, and this time, Meng Zihan broke free from his embrace again.

"I'm tired and want to rest." Meng Zihan didn't go to Gu Muxuanchen, walked to the bed, took off her shoes and lay down on the bed. She knew that if she didn't lie down again, she would definitely faint again. The sudden sense of fear just now made her unbearable.

Time passed quietly, the red candle was not yet halfway through, Meng Zihan's breathing gradually stabilized, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.And Mu Xuanchen was still standing beside the flickering candlelight, just standing quietly in this room that only belonged to him and Meng Zihan.

Suddenly hearing the sound of someone pacing outside the door, Mu Xuanchen turned around and walked towards the door to open the door. It was Xiao Hai and Ye Feng, who were walking back and forth anxiously not far from the door with their heads bowed.

Ye Feng's sensitive nerves sensed Mu Xuanchen, and turned to look at the door: "Master!"

Xiao Hai saw Mu Xuanchen standing at the door, as if he had been waiting for a long time, and was about to rush forward, but when he saw Mu Xuanchen's face, he immediately kept a distance from the room, and just asked respectfully: "Master, what are you doing?" Haven't had dinner yet, do you want to go over to eat now? Or should the servants bring the meal over?"

Mu Xuanchen was about to step out of the room with one foot, when he heard a voice from inside the room, he took the foot back.

"No need, you guys go back!" Mu Xuanchen said to Xiao Hai.

"Yes!" Ye Feng interrupted Xiao Hai's words.

Although Ye Feng was worried, he glanced into the room and immediately retreated knowingly. He turned around and gestured to Xiao Hai who didn't know it. Seeing Ye Feng's eyes, Xiao Hai nodded and retreated.

On the way, Ye Feng and Xiaohai saw Caiyun secretly standing aside, Xiaohai looked at Ye Feng and walked over with his head down.

"Caiyun, why are you here?"

Caiyun glanced at Zimeng Pavilion and whispered, "Have you guys gone to see it? Is Miss Meng okay?"

Xiao Hai replied with a puzzled face: "Hi! What can I do?"

"Are you sure?" Cai Yun couldn't believe Xiao Hai's expression.

"I..." Xiao Hai felt very guilty when Cai Yun saw him.

Ye Feng walked over with a low smile and said unhurriedly: "Without Master's order, how could we enter at will, let alone Master and Miss Meng alone in the room!"

"That Xiaohai just now..." Caiyun looked at Xiaohai, who lowered his head in shame.

Ye Feng held back his laughter and coughed dryly, "Xiao Hai is just afraid that you are worried, right! Xiao Hai?"

Xiao Hai nodded immediately: "Yes! Yes! I'm just afraid you're worried."

After hearing this answer, Caiyun turned around anxiously in place.

"Don't worry too much, our master treats Miss Meng very well! Otherwise, he wouldn't let her live in Zimeng Pavilion." Xiao Hai understood quite well in his heart.

Caiyun didn't seem to be relieved by this: "It's because of this that I am more worried."

"How to say?" Ye Feng and Xiao Hai said in unison.

Caiyun explained: "Think about it, the master let Meng girl live in Zimeng Pavilion, he must have identified Meng girl as his future concubine, but judging from the situation, 'Prince Xiang has dreams and goddesses have no intentions', today Meng girl didn't take into account the master's wishes Feeling, I went out to play with Commander An privately, and I didn’t come back until it was dark, what do you think the master will think?”

Ye Feng listened and nodded, recalling that His Royal Highness Chen Wang asked him to follow the two of them today, and finally rushed to the Guose Tianxiang Building, but he did not show himself in front of Meng Zihan. From this point of view, if Meng girl If this continues, it's hard to guarantee that he won't get angry.

"But, if the master is really bad for Miss Meng, there's nothing we can do, right?" Xiao Hai said to Cai Yun helplessly.

This is the truth. If a prince wants to deal with a little girl with no background, who can protect him?What's more, for a powerful prince like Mu Xuanchen, he is more than enough to deal with officials, let alone a woman.

"What are you bastards doing here?"

While the three of them were thinking, a warning sound suddenly came from their ears.Taking a closer look under the moonlight, it turned out to be Steward Zhang.As soon as Zhang Butler walked up to the three of them, he knocked on everyone's head.

"Steward Zhang?" The three of them shouted in unison.

"Hush!" Steward Zhang made a silent movement, and then taught, "I don't even look at this place! Is this the place where you guys chat? Go back!"

"But..." Xiao Hai was about to say something when Steward Zhang gave him a hard look.

Ye Feng shrugged and walked in front, Caiyun followed closely, and Xiaohai walked a few steps and was about to turn around to say something to Butler Zhang, but Butler Zhang lifted his foot and kicked him on the buttocks, and said admonishingly: " You are the one who has the most trouble!"

After Mu Xuanchen closed the door again, he turned around and sat on the edge of the bed.

Meng Zihan frowned tightly, sweat dripping from his forehead, his hands tightly grasped the quilt and kept struggling.

She is having nightmares again.

Mu Xuanchen took out a sweat towel and gently wiped the sweat off Meng Zihan's forehead, but she was still struggling, as if she was stuck in a quagmire, or fell into an abyss, her appearance made Mu Xuanchen a little At a loss, but couldn't bear to wake her up.

Just as he retracted his hand, Meng Zihan grabbed his wrist.

"It's going to sink! It's so dark! It's so dark here!" Meng Zihan closed his eyes and muttered in pain.

I don't know where Meng Zihan came to be so strong, he held onto Mu Xuanchen's hand tightly and refused to let go.How scary does it have to be?What exactly happened?What is she afraid of?What was she dreaming about?Mu Xuanchen didn't understand, but he didn't wake her up, but leaned over and kissed her forehead, and whispered softly in her ear: "Don't be afraid!"

Meng Zihan seemed to have heard the comfort, and let go of his hands, but he still did not relax his whole body, and his brows were still furrowed.

At this time, Mu Xuanchen is so gentle and delicate, this is an honor that no woman in the world has ever enjoyed.

Hearing Meng Zihan's gradually calm breathing, Mu Xuanchen fell asleep in peace, but he never dared to let her go, because once she let go, she would lose her sense of security.

Mu Xuanchen didn't know what Meng Zihan was afraid of, he only knew that this was the only way to keep her from being afraid.

In the middle of the night, whenever Meng Zihan made a small movement, Mu Xuanchen would wake up from his sleep.He will fall asleep again only when he sees that she is not having nightmares.

Opening his eyes, it was already dawn, Meng Zihan stretched and got up to find that there was no movement outside the door.

Today is really rare, if it were normal, Caiyun would have already said to her non-stop, "Greetings to the lord", "go to meet the lord" and so on.

But last night, he vaguely felt that someone was lying next to him. When he woke up, he checked his side in panic, and found that there was no sign of the "devil", so Meng Zihan heaved a long sigh of relief.

But the strange thing is that she actually had a good sleep last night. Ever since she came to this White Tiger Country, she has never had a peaceful sleep.

Meng Zihan supported the bed with his hands, and tentatively called to the door: "Caiyun!"

The sudden response outside the door surprised Meng Zihan.

The door was gently pushed open, Cai Yun entered the room with a washbasin, and smiled when she saw Meng Zihan.Meng Zihan couldn't understand this smile.

After coming to ancient times, Meng Zihan always felt that he was half disabled and needed others to help him with everything.

Caiyun handed the wrung face towel to Meng Zihan, Meng Zihan took it and wiped his face and asked, "You weren't outside the door just now, were you?"

Caiyun replied: "Yes!"

"When did you wait outside?" After Meng Zihan wiped his face, Caiyun wanted to pick up the washcloth, but Meng Zihan didn't let him go, and went to the washbasin by himself and put the washcloth into the washbasin. Warm your hands with water.Finding that the water temperature was still very hot, she thought she shouldn't have waited long.

Who knows that Caiyun actually said: "Miss Huimeng, the slaves are here at the hour."

"Oh! What time is it now? Have I slept for a long time?" Meng Zihan asked again.

"It's almost time now, Miss Meng!" Caiyun replied.

Hearing Caiyun's words, Meng Zihan looked at her in surprise and then at the basin of water, and asked again in disbelief, "What? You arrived at the hour of the hour, and now it's almost time, that is, it's almost an hour?"

Caiyun didn't know why Meng Zihan was so surprised, so he nodded inexplicably.

"Are you joking? If it's an hour, why is the water still hot?" Meng Zihan believed that there could be no advanced heat preservation method in ancient times, and it could keep heat in such a cold weather. Arabian Nights.

Hearing Meng Zihan's question, Caiyun replied with a light smile: "When the slave girl came over at Chenshi, the water was indeed hot, but it got cold after a while outside, so I asked people to bring hot water every once in a while. Change to cold water."

Meng Zihan's face was full of black lines: "Then you can come in and call me, it's not like you haven't woken me up before."

After hearing this sentence, Caiyun bowed her head and did not make a sound, but she could see that she was laughing hard. After a while, Caiyun said: "It is the prince's order not to come in and disturb Miss Meng when she is not awake. If Miss Meng summons her again go in."

"He takes care of a lot, wasting manpower and material resources." Meng Zihan didn't understand why Mu Xuanchen took care of these things, was it because he was full?
"From tomorrow onwards, there will be no waste." Seeing Meng Zihan's question mark expression, Caiyun continued, "Master said that next time we will build a stove in the next room, so that if Miss Meng needs hot water, she can get hot water in time." Served."

After Caiyun finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows mischievously. Looking at her small appearance, Meng Zihan really felt a response: the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.

Finally finished washing and dressing up, walked out of the room and looked at the scenery in the courtyard, it was really pleasant.

Inadvertently seeing the hairpin on Cai Yun's head, Meng Zihan was overjoyed: "So you didn't throw it away!"

Caiyun stretched out her hand to touch her head, and said with a smile: "Ms. Meng gave it as a reward, how can a servant throw it away?"

Today Meng Zihan was in a good mood after hearing that, so he didn't ask any further questions, and took a breath of fresh air outside.Seeing that the "breakfast" was ready, he couldn't help feeling elated. After sitting down and eating for a while, he turned to Caiyun and asked casually, "What is your Highness Chen Wang doing today?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Chen, Commander An, and General Hua are going on a horseback ride." Caiyun replied.

"Horse riding?" Meng Zihan regained his energy.

Ever since I came here, I either stayed in this Prince Chen's mansion foolishly, or sneaked out for a few laps. I don't know why Mu Xuanchen took her as someone in his mansion to take care of her. Every time I go out and come back, nothing good will happen.The best time was to go to the palace in a carriage. Until now, except for sitting on the horse for a few minutes when I was taking pictures when I was a child, I have never really ridden a horse.

Seeing the heroic appearance of those ancient people on horseback in TV dramas, I am really envious.

Thinking of this, Meng Zihan put down his chopsticks and pulled Caiyun to leave immediately: "Let's go!"

"Where are you going?" Caiyun asked.

"Go on a trip with His Highness Prince Chen." Seeing Caiyun gasping for breath, but the speed of her feet was not fast enough, Meng Zihan couldn't help urging, "Hurry up, they will leave when it's late."

After finally pulling Caiyun to the hall, he saw Mu Xuanchen drinking tea with Hua Yankang and An Lingfei, Ye Feng stood aside, seeing Meng Zihan coming, Mu Xuanchen seemed a little calm, and continued to drink tea, but I don't understand the faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

When An Lingfei saw Meng Zihan, he got up to greet him, and said in surprise, "Why is Han'er here? We're going to ride a horse outside later, and we were thinking about calling you too."

"Of course you have to take me with you! It's so much fun, how can you leave me here alone." Meng Zihan said excitedly.

From the corner of the eye, I saw a familiar ray of light, looked sideways, and it turned out to be Hua Yankang who charmed all living beings. He was looking at Meng Zihan with his winking eyes smiling like a crescent moon. shiver.

But then he smirked at him perfunctorily, walked up to him and said, "Oh... I wonder why the hall is so bright today, so General Hua is there."

"Oh? Why is the hall brighter after I'm here?" Hua Yankang knew that Meng Zihan must have bad things to say, but still wanted to tease her.

Meng Zihan slowly moved his face closer, looked at his face and smiled: "Look at your charming eyes, they are even brighter than the lights. Where you are, there is no need to light the lights at night."

Hua Yankang couldn't stop laughing: "Is Han'er praising me?"

"Didn't you hear it?" Meng Zihan's smirk was obvious, and then he added, "I told you not to call me so close, and I don't know you very well."

"Unfamiliar? I thought the last meal could bring us closer!" Hua Yankang glanced at Mu Xuanchen intentionally or unintentionally, and Mu Xuanchen's expression changed obviously.

"Shut up!" Meng Zihan gave Hua Yankang a warning look, but then he didn't quite understand why he was in a hurry to stop Hua Yankang from continuing, thinking that maybe he was afraid that he would say something Come on with more explicit words!Yes, it must be.Meng Zihan affirmed himself.

"Hey! The mouth is on my face, how are you going to shut me up?" Hua Yankang looked at Meng Zihan like watching a good show, waiting for her reaction.

Sure enough, he is another prodigal son, why are all the men here so virtuous?Could it be the water and soil problem that made them "different"?
An Lingfei walked between Meng Zihan and Hua Yankang and said inexplicably, "Why do you two start fighting as soon as you meet? Can't you talk properly?"

Hua Yankang smiled at Meng Zihan after hearing this, and Meng Zihan was pulled aside by An Lingfei, then turned around and stuck out his tongue at Hua Yankang, the mischievousness made Hua Yankang's phoenix eyes narrowed with a smile a seam.

"When are you going out to ride horses?" Meng Zihan asked the three people who were calm and relaxed.

"Don't worry, let's go right away." An Lingfei comforted the impatient Meng Zihan.

Meng Zihan was excitedly preparing to take Caiyun to go together, but when he turned around, he saw Mu Xuanchen was still drinking tea leisurely, but the expression on his face didn't seem very good.Meng Zihan walked up to Mu Xuanchen and stood still in front of Mu Xuanchen with his mouth pouting silently.Mu Xuanchen looked up at Meng Zihan, the teacup in his hand was still not put down.

Meng Zihan snatched the teacup from Mu Xuanchen's hand and placed it on the table: "What time is it, you still drink tea, aren't you afraid to ride later?"

"puff!"

A sip of tea burst out from Hua Yankang's mouth. If it was accompanied by sunlight, it would be colorful.

Hua Yankang kept laughing while coughing: "Hahaha...Ms. Meng's words are really...hahaha..."

An Lingfei couldn't help chuckling at this time, and Caiyun lowered her head and tried her best not to laugh.

Looking at Hua Yankang's virtue, Meng Zihan gave him a warning look, Hua Yankang had no choice but to put down his teacup to signal him to shut up immediately.But Meng Zihan looked back at Mu Xuanchen, his face was already black, Meng Zihan hurried forward to apologize.

Not allowing Mu Xuanchen to waste any more time, Meng Zihan grabbed Mu Xuanchen's arm after laughing, "Hurry up! Let's go! Don't waste time, as the saying goes, an inch of time is worth an inch of gold, and an inch of gold cannot buy an inch of time." what!"

After hearing this, Mu Xuanchen finally returned to normal, and Meng Zihan grabbed his arm and stood up with a smile.

Hua Yankang looked at Meng Zihan pulling Mu Xuanchen, and deliberately teased: "Before, we thought that our Royal Highness Chen Wang had seen through the world, who knew that he would also be close to women!"

Before Mu Xuanchen could refute, Meng Zihan took a step forward and said, "General Hua, don't you like men and treat others as you, okay?"

"Huh? General Hua likes men?" An Lingfei stepped back while talking.

Hua Yankang was momentarily overwhelmed by Meng Zihan's words, and Mu Xuanchen also gave a low laugh.

"Who told you that General Ben likes men?" Hua Yankang was obviously anxious.

Meng Zihan smiled and pretended that he had misunderstood: "Ah? So you don't like men?"

"I...Of course I don't like men anymore!" Hua Yankang blushed anxiously, this was the first time I saw it.

"That's embarrassing! I see that you often run in and out of the Prince Chen's Mansion, and thought you were interested in our Royal Highness Chen Prince."

Meng Zihan's words not only made Hua Yankang's eyes widen, Mu Xuanchen at the side also cast a murderous look, and Caiyun who was standing at the side lowered his head as low as he wanted .

Unexpectedly, Meng Zihan, who didn't know it, sighed and looked around Hua Yankang, then shook his head and said, "It's a pity that you don't like men like General Hua. Why don't you... "

Hua Yankang had an ominous premonition.

"Why don't you change into women's clothes and see how many people fall under your pretty face?"

After Meng Zihan finished speaking, everyone in the hall burst into laughter.

"Okay! Han'er stop joking with General Hua, it's getting late, why don't you go!" An Lingfei said with a smile.

"Okay! Let's go!" Meng Zihan was very excited.

"Are you going to go horseback riding with us dressed like this?" Hua Yankang finally found a chance to refute.

Meng Zihan looked it up for himself and said, "Is there something wrong?"

Hua Yankang began to laugh at Meng Zihan: "You don't even have a piece of riding equipment, and you plan to ride a horse?"

"Caiyun!" At this moment, Mu Xuanchen said suddenly.
