my awesome king

Chapter 17

Mu Shuiqing saw that Ji Xiaomo's face was full of dust and dust, only wearing unlined clothing, his face was pale and frightening, showing a sickness, and hurriedly said: "My lord, why are you here... How long have you been waiting at the door? Why didn't you send someone?" Tell me... I accidentally forgot the time, sorry..." She immediately regretted.

"I went out for something, just passed by here, and didn't wait too long." A pair of eyes as warm as black jade looked at her from top to bottom, and saw that her head was sweating profusely, her lips were slightly swollen, and her eyes narrowed into a dangerous line , "What happened to your lips?"

She caressed her upper lip lightly, never expecting that the sharp-eyed Ji Xiaomo would notice the imprint of Mu Yuanran's bite.Mu Shuiqing lowered his eyebrows and said softly, "I was accidentally bitten by a bug."

The quiet eyes made Mu Shuiqing a little flustered. Afraid that her lies would be exposed, she hurriedly pushed and shoved Ji Xiaomo to change the subject: "It's cold outside, go in quickly..." The cold wind at night is not just for fun Mu Shuiqing felt cold, let alone the weak Ji Xiaomo.With the cold wind entering his body, his weak body must suffer.

After seeing Ji Xiaomo go in obediently, Mu Shuiqing got into the carriage with the porcelain cup in his arms.Seeing Ji Xiaomo's black eyes staring blankly at the thing in her hand, she quickly scooped up a spoonful and handed it to Ji Xiaomo's lips, and said in awe: "This is the fruit smoothie I just made, it's delicious Yes. The first finished product, come and taste it."

Ji Xiaomo's face was slightly drunk: "You smashed the ice just to make this?"

"Yes." Mu Shuiqing blinked and asked strangely, "Huh? How did the prince know that I smashed the ice?"

Ji Xiaomo coughed lightly, and said, "The ice cubes used to cool off the heat are huge, if you don't break them open, how could they become so small."

"Yeah, I'm so stupid." Mu Shuiqing laughed happily, and his laughter was like spring water, "Try it, my lord, it must be delicious. And these crushed ice are carefully selected by me, they are absolutely clean. "Those shining eyes looked at Ji Xiaomo full of expectation. In order to prove that what she said was true, she even took a spoonful and handed it to her own mouth, and exaggeratedly licked her lips to prove it. It's delicious.

Seeing that the spoon that Mu Shuiqing licked just now was handed to his lips again, Ji Xiaomo was slightly blatant, and hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist Mu Shuiqing's repeated urging, and slowly put the smoothie into his lips.

so cold...

The ice sand slowly melted in his lips, and Ji Xiaomo's originally pale lips instantly became moist and alive.

Seeing it, Mu Shuiqing happily took another spoonful and put it into his mouth.The seductive red lips were slightly opened and slightly closed in front of his eyes, and the soft tip of his tongue kept licking the spoon.Ji Xiaomo was startled, and immediately shifted his gaze away, and two bright red flowers floated on his face.When he was in a daze, the smoothie in his mouth accidentally slipped into his throat, and the cold air kept irritating his throat, and he couldn't help coughing in a low voice.

Ah, what an idiot she is.How can a prince with such a weak body eat ice!She really killed people!
With a remorseful expression on his face, Mu Shuiqing handed him water and beat his back. Who knew that Ji Xiaomo's cough not only didn't heal, but when she beat his back, the low coughing became more and more severe. Let her worry.

After coughing, Ji Xiaomo's pale cheeks were already unbearably red, and he kept pressing his chest and panting for breath.Mu Shuiqing, on the other hand, looked at the smoothie that had melted into water with a pale face, and ate the fruit floating on it sadly and indignantly.

Ji Xiaomo knew that she had been busy for so long just to do this, and now seeing Mu Shuiqing pursing her lips in a sullen mood, he glanced at her red hand from the cold, then stretched out his hand out of nowhere, and gently held her hand into his own. In the palm of your hand.He was about to say something, but Mu Shuiqing withdrew his hand in a panic, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't touch me..."

Ji Xiaomo stared blankly at the empty palm, his pale thin lips were tightly pressed, and a half circle of bright red appeared.After holding on to the slightly raised hands and feet for a moment, he stiffly retracted them.

Mu Shuiqing knew that his hand was frozen cold after being smashed just now, if such a grip, the cold invaded Ji Xiaomo's body, what should be done.

Ji Xiaomo thought that Mu Shuiqing was angry at him for preventing her from eating her beloved smoothie, so he ignored him.Seeing that his kindness was taken as a donkey's liver and lungs, and the other party frowned and sighed, he sat aside sullenly and turned his head away.

He originally thought that Mu Shuiqing would complain to his husband, but who knew that the playful smile on her face just now did not look sad, and she even lied.Maybe she enjoyed being kissed.When he thought of being pushed away by his decent husband, he suddenly became angry.After being angry, he was angry again about "why should he be angry?"

The prince who returned to the mansion was surrounded by a frightening cold air, but Mu Shuiqing thought that he had caught a cold just now, and his whole body was so cold.She immediately ordered someone to bring a washbasin filled with steaming hot water. After testing the temperature of the water, she smiled and said, "My lord just went out, and I'm afraid there was a cold wind. Warm your hands first, and I'll give you a foot massage later." .”

Ji Xiaomo withdrew his hand awkwardly, flicked his sleeves to avoid her, and limped stiffly towards the bed.He couldn't understand what he had done today, and he needed to stay away from her and calm down.

It was only then that Mu Shuiqing realized that he was angry with herself.She thought about it every day when she gave him a foot massage, if she came back tonight, he might be angry at her for not keeping her promise.

Mu Shuiqing raised his eyebrows, brute force pulled his hand tightly into his own, feigned anger and said: "My lord is weak, I don't warm my hands, what if the cold air enters my body. Don't lose your temper now, I'll be back later , I was wrong, okay... I will definitely come back at Xu time..." As she spoke, she dipped his hand in the hot water forcefully, ignoring Ji Xiaomo's astonished eyes, and gently wiped it with a towel.

Mu Shuiqing originally thought that Ji Xiaomo's hands would be as slender and white as his body, perfectly smooth.But when she really stroked her right hand lightly, she found that there were many thin calluses densely packed between his fingers.She asked curiously: "My lord knows martial arts?"

Ji Xiaomo hummed lightly, and said lightly: "I used to learn martial arts, but because of my feet, I haven't practiced for many years, so it's useless." Saying so, there was a slight alienation on his warm and jade-like face.

Thinking of the TV dramas he had watched, Mu Shuiqing said with regret: "My lord shouldn't be neglected. Learning martial arts can strengthen your body! Even if your legs and feet are inconvenient, you can practice that kind of very powerful kung fu, such as throwing hidden weapons." See Mu Shuiqing's eyebrows danced brightly, and she spoke more vigorously, Ji Xiaomo lowered her eyelids, and said in a deep voice: "The princess knows a lot about this..."

Mu Shuiqing smiled awkwardly. When she helped Ji Xiaomo to bed, she caught a glimpse of the silver cup containing the medicinal soup by the side of the bed, and suddenly thought that because of Ji Xiaomo's praise last time, she was so excited that she had to suffer every day before leaving the house. Red dates and white fungus soup, before leaving, give it to Qing Zhu, and order her to bring it to Ji Xiaomo, while I rush to Yipin Tea Pavilion to arrange it.Now that he has eaten for more than ten days, Ji Xiaomo must be tired of it.

"I make red dates and white fungus soup every day. The prince is tired of eating it? Before leaving the house tomorrow, I will make a small corn soup. It nourishes the stomach and warms up."

Red dates and white fungus soup?Ji Xiaomo was stunned, thinking about it for a long time, it seemed that there was such a thing.He hummed lightly and didn't say much.

After Ji Xiaomo's foot treatment, Mu Shuiqing, who was sweating profusely, went to the bathing pool to refresh himself as usual.

"Green Bamboo." Waiting for people to walk away, the smile on the corner of his mouth subconsciously retracted.Ji Xiaomo asked in a deep voice, "Mu Shuiqing cooks soup every day?"

"Well, the princess said that the prince likes it, so it will take a while to cook soup when I go out in the morning."

"What about the red dates and white fungus soup?" He narrowed his eyes and raised his eyes, seeming to ask, "Why didn't I see a bowl?"

Qingzhu was stunned, and it took a long time to explain: "Last time, didn't the lord say he didn't like it... The servants just took the initiative to throw it away." She bit her lip and continued, "Because the wangfei is very early every time. Getting up and going out in a hurry, the servant did not say anything to tell the princess not to waste her efforts in vain. When the princess comes back, the servant will go and talk..."

Ji Xiaomo interrupted lightly: "Tomorrow, bring it to me."

"What?" Seeing that Ji Xiaomo didn't seem to be joking, Qing Zhu frowned and said, "Obviously the prince said it himself, let the servants beware, how could the prince fall into it by himself... let Mo Hua do such a thing..." Just now When she heard it, she couldn't believe it.How could the master who had always regarded his subordinates as brothers and sisters let Mo Hua do such a waste of time to cut off his descendants.

When Ji Xiaomo heard this, he lay on the bed wearily with his hands propped up, his usually calm eyes suddenly became turbulent.He looked at the sleepy green bamboo, neither refuted nor spoke.

He knows what to do.No matter what happened, he should look proud and calm about everything, as if everything in the world was under his control, including Mu Shuiqing.

However, when he learned that Mu Shuiqing was being bullied, a never-before-seen anger burned in his heart like wild weeds, and it kept flowing.

That's an emotion you shouldn't have!

Inside the screen window, the atmosphere was solemn, Ji Xiaomo sat quietly on the bed, closed his eyes tightly, as if he was struggling with the nightmare in his heart.After a while, he said softly, "Qing Zhu...how much do you think her heart is true?"

"I don't know... But I know, she belongs to that person... The prince shouldn't..."

Ji Xiaomo lowered his eyes and gently interrupted: "Tomorrow, get some more buckets of ice from the ice cellar for her..."

"My lord!" Qingzhu was dissatisfied.

"She's here, go down." He lowered his eyebrows and hid all his thoughts.

On the second day at the Yipin Tea Pavilion, Mu Shuiqing worked hard all day, fearing that Mu Yuanran would pick on her again, so she hired a few more thugs to stay close to her. She didn't see any of her shadows, it was a waste of her deployment.

Seeing more than a dozen buckets of ice suddenly appearing in the room, Mu Shuiqing was stunned for a moment, then pulled the shopkeeper Yan and asked, "What's going on, wasn't it just one bucket last night?" She even smashed it all up... Although ancient ice cubes are not rare, no one will suddenly buy a lot of ice and store it.

"It was sent by the prince."

My lord, I didn't expect him to be so caring.Mu Shuiqing said happily: "That's just right. I just came up with a smoothie yesterday, and I will recommend it to everyone as a new product today. This smoothie is refreshing and refreshing, and it can also be made into different flavors. You can add sugar, fruit, and jam according to your preferences." ,cream……"

While Mu Shuiqing taught the guys how to make smoothies, he made a colorful fruit flavor for Ji Xiaomo and another for Qingzhu.Afterwards, she beckoned her servants to send them over in a hurry, don't let them all melt.

"It's not just smoothies, it can also be made into simple popsicles for sale! Five cents a piece, cheap and refreshing!"

At noon, Mrs. Xu came to her with a pale face, pulled her sleeves, and cried, "Shui Qing, just now Yuan Ran was found abandoned in a lonely corridor covered in blood... a doctor was invited to help her." It was only later that I found out that... Yuan Ran had been beheaded by someone. Now his pulse is weak, and his life is at stake..."

She was crying and crying, her face was full of murderous looks, she held the brocade handkerchief tightly, and said angrily: "Perhaps it was the murderer who suffered last night! Shui Qing, go complain to the prince and catch the murderer! However, a son is now extinct! This is a bloody feud!"

Mu Shuiqing sneered.He must have lost the bet somewhere and was beaten up in anger.deserve it!
She comforted her face and said: "Don't be sad, Auntie, this matter is on my shoulders. I will definitely let the prince catch the murderer and torture him! I also ordered the prince to cut off his life, so that he will never be born again. Let's taste it!" Eating Ji Xiaomo, who made Mu Shuiqing's corn ribs soup, sneezed hard.

Qingzhu said faintly: "It's all the prince who went out last night, and now he must have caught the wind and cold..." After she finished speaking, she sighed several times, angrily indisputable.

But Ji Xiaomo swallowed the soup, looked at the steaming small ribs in the snow-white porcelain cup, licked his lips, and said, "It tastes good."

At this time, a servant said respectfully at the door: "My lord, my concubine ordered me to bring fruit smoothies, besides my lord's, there is also a portion for Miss Qingzhu."

Seeing that the prince just drank hot soup and then drank a cold drink, his stomach would definitely be unwell, Qingzhu just wanted to refuse.Ji Xiaomo flicked his hair lightly, and hummed casually.

Qingzhu heaved a long sigh, the appearance of that livid face has not changed since yesterday.

Ji Xiaomo took the porcelain cup containing the smoothie, smiled lightly and said, "Qingzhu, she is so kind, you should try it too. It's very refreshing." Saying that, she stuffed her portion into her hand inside.

Seeing that Qingzhu turned his head and ignored him, he added: "If you don't eat any more, it will melt..."

After a while, he chuckled and said, "Or, do you want Bai Ye to feed you?..."
