Chapter 49

Ji Xiaomo said that Qing Zhu returned to his hometown for a few days, and Mu Shuiqing was a little disappointed. Recently, Shen Mo was busy and didn't have time to teach her martial arts, so she never learned the lightness kung fu.In a blink of an eye, she thought again that Qing Zhu and Bai Ye were secretly flirting with each other. Since Ji Xiaomo didn't care, it's better to let the good things of these two people come to fruition.She thought about giving Qing Zhu some sexy underwear, asking her to seduce Bai Ye, and asking Bai Ye to agree to teach her lightness kung fu.Anyway, she has known Qingzhu longer than Bai Ye, so Qingzhu should help her master.

Or use marriage to force her to ask Bai Ye to teach her lightness kung fu.It's a pity that Qingzhu went back to his hometown.Such a good hostage who made Bai Ye submit obediently is gone...

Recently, Mu Shuiqing didn't need to worry about the shop, and there was no progress in learning martial arts.When she was bored, she prepared some "poisons". Although this medicine could not poison people to death, it could also make people invisible.For example, the invincible laxative that makes people collapse, the itching pill that makes people itch, scratches the skin and bruises, the body odor pill that makes people smell body odor after a long time, and her self-satisfied homemade chili water .

Chili water is a big killer for women to protect themselves.Mu Shuiqing chopped the pepper into fine pieces and soaked it in water for an hour and a half, then added the pepper powder to fully dissolve.After filtering, mix some fresh onion juice, and finally pour it into a small spray bottle, which can be carried with you, so that when you encounter an emergency, you can come by surprise, take it out and spray it, and paralyze the other party's sight to find a way to escape.

When cutting onions, Mu Shuiqing's eyes were so irritated that he kept crying.When she finished making the chili water excitedly, she seemed to cry a lot, her eyes were swollen like a rabbit.It is conceivable how exciting this chili water is.

After finishing, she found a sneaky shadow by the window, which was not Ji Xiaomo's body shape.Could it be a thief?

Mu Shuiqing opened the window suddenly, and sprayed pepper water on the person outside the window.The victim screamed and fell to the ground in embarrassment, covering his eyes and rolling.

"Um, Housekeeper Mo?" Mu Shuiqing put away the chili water in a panic, and gave a dry laugh.

"Princess, what are you doing!" After half a stick of incense, Butler Mo rubbed his eyes angrily and stood up, his eyes were bloodshot and extremely blood red.Mu Shuiqing wanted to laugh but couldn't, so he quickly lowered his head and held back his laughter, pretending to admit his mistake: "I thought it was a villain."

Mu Shuiqing thought to himself: The time for half a stick of incense is too short, next time put more peppers and onions.

Housekeeper Mo sighed, and said, "Princess, I have something to tell you." It's noon now, and the servants are lazily taking a nap, and Ji Xiaomo is immersed in the book pavilion as usual.The two chatted quietly, but no one noticed.

"At noon tomorrow, the princess will come out with me once."

Mu Shuiqing was stunned, seeing Steward Mo's cautious gesture, she immediately thought of the master behind him, she was about to refuse, but he said again: "My concubine is so smart, she got to know Shen Mo well within a month , and took him under his command. Your Majesty has something to ask you personally."

Mu Shuiqing also had doubts about Shen Mo.It was only later that she realized that her vigilance was too low, and she caused trouble for Ji Xiaomo.At this time, she was thinking about getting some news from Ji Hengyuan, knowing Shen Mo's identity, and taking advantage of the opportunity to understand what Ji Hengyuan was going to do, so she nodded silently.

At noon on the second day, Butler Mo pretended to take Mu Shuiqing to inspect the store and left the mansion.After the two of them sat in the carriage and circled a few small streets and alleys, Butler Mo lifted the curtain and signaled Mu Shuiqing to get out of the carriage. "Your Majesty is in the carriage opposite, and has been waiting for the princess for a long time."

Mu Shuiqing took a deep breath, clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves.

It's been more than a month since we saw each other. It's been so long that Mu Shuiqing has almost given up his original identity. He is a petty worker who loves the scumbag emperor.The days of earning money and learning martial arts in the palace were full of joy, which made her completely forget all the troubles her predecessor had brought her.

Her eyes darkened.It would be great if I could get rid of the relationship with Ji Hengyuan...

"I have met His Majesty personally." Mu Shuiqing bowed his head and saluted.

"Don't be too polite, come in." The curtain of the car was lifted by a pair of slender white hands. Before Mu Shuiqing could react, his waist suddenly tightened, and the whole person was pulled into the carriage by the other party, and hugged by Ji Hengyuan in the arms.

The bright yellow dragon robe was pressed against her cheek, and Mu Shuiqing could see at a glance that Ji Heng was far from the firm white chest in the tightly closed skirt, and was even too close, his breath was full of ambergris from the man, and there was even a little bit of unrefined chest. Mu Shuiqing's face turned blue as soon as the woman's rouge and powder smell dissipated, and she moved around in resistance.

At this time, she suddenly realized that being hugged by Ji Xiaomo had never produced any resistance. She even felt that the faint medicinal scent on Ji Xiaomo's body was very pleasant. They are very warm, with an inexplicable sense of security, which makes people yearn for and heartbeat.

But being hugged so intimately by Ji Hengyuan, Mu Shuiqing only felt goosebumps all over his body, and crossed him thousands of times in his heart.He dared to mess with his old lady as soon as he came up!If you didn't see a few guards standing outside the carriage, who would have given you the chance to eat tofu indiscriminately!Absolutely let you die!
"I haven't seen you in January, do you miss me?" Ji Hangyuan didn't realize that Mu Shuiqing's face was so pale that it couldn't be any more pale. He saw her fluttering in his arms, and chuckled, thinking she was shy, after all, Mu Shuiqing used to be so pale. No matter how much he admired him, he never took the initiative to hug her so intimately.At this moment, she must be flustered with joy... Maybe if she is angry with herself for not coming to her for a long time, she will be awkward again...

Ji Hengyuan gently hugged Mu Shuiqing, leaning his head on her neck, his obsidian eyes glowed with light: "I really want to see you...but I've been involved in political affairs recently, so I can't leave..."

Ji Hengyuan still thinks that women should be coaxed as always, and if a woman is angry and cold, as long as she coaxes a few words, she will obediently listen to you.So it was a nasty lie from the very beginning.

Mu Shuiqing sneered contemptuously in her heart, even though her previous emotions kept making her heart beat faster, she calmed down very well at this moment, went straight to the point, and asked: "Your Majesty wants to ask about Shen Mo, and this concubine wants to know , What is it about Shen Mo that His Majesty misses so much? Isn't he a small businessman?"

"In recent years, my spies have conducted multiple investigations and found that a person in the business world has sprung up rapidly and almost overwhelmed the business of Niancheng and nearby cities. This person is Shen Mo. After contacting, I found that Shen Mo is familiar with business. Dao is a rare talent. And he has been in contact with the daughter of the Song family, Song Xinxin loves Shen Mo, if Shen Mo becomes the son-in-law of the Song family, and the Song family is rich, his financial resources will be extraordinary."

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

Ji Hengyuan smiled and said: "I want to recruit him and let him become an official businessman." Since he ascended the throne, the treasury has been empty and he is in urgent need of money, so he wants to order Shen Mo to use his money for his own use.Ji Hengyuan will not tell Mu Shuiqing about this.

"My people had contacted Shen Mo before and proposed to make him an official businessman, but he refused. Later, when I heard that he went south to Beijing, I thought that he might come to the Song family, so I asked you to pay attention to Song Xinxin."

Mu Shuiqing breathed out: "So that's the case, no wonder he saved me that day." She deliberately mentioned the day of the assassination, just to know how much Ji Hengyuan knew.

"Afterwards he will teach you martial arts and be the supervisor in your medicated food hall?" Ji Hangyuan kept silent about the assassination.

"Yes."

"He has never been close to women, he is only interested in making money. But now, he suddenly wants to teach you martial arts. Could it be that he wants to get close to you?" Ji Hengyuan raised Mu Shuiqing's chin, Mo Yu's eyes looked straight at With Mu Shuiqing's expression on his face, he asked forcefully, "A while ago you were very prosperous in the capital and earned a grand slam. He is a businessman, so he will naturally pay attention to you. Does he like you?"

Looking at it now, the white cheeks seemed to be moistened with jade cream, which made Mu Shuiqing more beautiful, like a peony in full bloom, adding a bit of charming charm to all living beings.She also has a pair of beautiful almond eyes, the eyes are clean and clear, giving people a pure and innocent feeling, and the brows are full of vitality.With the sad and resentful expressions before, they are like two people, which makes people's hearts flutter.

It should be the same person...

Suspicious Ji Hengyuan touched Mu Shuiqing's cheek, touched it carefully, and was relieved to make sure that there was no human skin mask.

"How is it possible..." Mu Shuiqing turned his head away, dodging Ji Hengyuan's hand in annoyance, "He is just curious about my new ideas..."

Ji Hengyuan sighed regretfully, Mu Shuiqing's heart sank, and goosebumps appeared again in an instant.This kind of man actually took advantage of a woman who was so devoted to him!Not only did she give it to her imperial brother as a concubine to watch over, but in order to get Shen Mo's financial resources, she actually had the despicable idea of ​​letting her seduce Shen Mo!
Being touched by Ji Hengyuan, Mu Shuiqing was disgusted and pushed Ji Hengyuan away impatiently.She lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, and I'm stepping down."

Ji Hengyuan has always been suspicious, but Mu Shuiqing's several evasions made him instantly vigilant.He took her hand, and said coldly: "You fell in love with Ji Xiaomo? Butler Mo said that you are very close recently, but you were confused by him?"

"Your Majesty is just teaching me to recognize acupuncture points! Your Majesty respects yourself!"

Ji Hangyuan curled his lips and smiled: "Oh, what do you think of his martial arts? He used to be a good son with both civil and martial arts..."

"My lord is so weak, how could he still have martial arts? In the assassination more than a month ago, my lord was seriously injured and almost died. If he was strong in martial arts, would he torture himself like this?!" Mu Shuiqing shook off Ji Hengyuan's hand , Even his own sanity was thrown away, "He is not as dirty as you, he always thinks about how to plot against others!"

Ji Hengyuan's face was livid, clasped Mu Shuiqing's hand, and said angrily: "What did you say?!"

In order to survive, Mu Shuiqing has been flattering and fawning on all noble people.Just like Ji Hengyuan, the king of a country, no matter how much he hated him, Mu Shuiqing never expressed obvious resistance or disgust, and always pretended to obey meekly.Because she knew that if the king of a country wanted to crush her, it would be as easy as crushing a tiny ant.

But at this moment, for some reason, Mu Shuiqing suddenly felt a surge of courage.She said coldly: "Your Majesty, that's enough, don't look for me anymore! The prince is so innocent, and I don't want to do that trick anymore! Let's just leave now..." She hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, ignoring the situation It won't hurt.

After standing firmly, Mu Shuiqing left proudly, giving Ji Hangyuan a firm back.

Ji Hengyuan just sneered, didn't say much, and didn't order anyone to take Mu Shuiqing back.

This emperor's brother is more powerful than he imagined, and Mu Shuiqing, who has admired him for a long time, is so tame...

Mu Yuanran, who just came back from the palace, stomped his feet angrily and said angrily, "Damn it, you let me enter the palace as a eunuch!" This morning, the palace sent someone to say that he would be able to enter the palace from now on. He thought that with his good martial arts, he could be a bodyguard, but he turned out to be a little eunuch!

He was dissatisfied and protested, and when he wanted to say that he had made a mistake, the manager glanced at his lower body with extreme contempt, and sneered in a shrill voice: "There are no such goods, and what kind of guards do you want to be, it's really whimsical!"

"But the prince said...it's a good position..."

His hope was interrupted by the steward's bitterness: "Your lord, after entering the palace, you can only listen to the steward. Go home and pack your luggage. Remember to be on duty tomorrow. If you are late, the first month's work will be delayed. There is no need to receive the monthly salary!"

Mu Yuanran saw Mu Shuiqing who was walking fast from a distance, and he took a step forward to hold her hand tightly, but his eyes were suddenly sprayed by something, causing a burning pain.When he covered his eyes and wailed, the opponent kicked his lower gear.

Mu Yuanran, who had no ability to resist, was hit in an instant, and he wailed and fell to the ground clutching his stomach.Although there is no such thing, but the injury in that place has not healed. With such a serious injury, Mu Yuanran rolled his eyes and passed out.

Mu Shuiqing stuffed the chili water back into her arms. Seeing that there was no one in the alley, she kicked Mu Yuanran a few times to vent her anger, and then left with a cold face.

It's only because Mu Yuanran was unlucky that he ran into Mu Shuiqing's irritability and anger.

Coincidentally, Mu Shuiqing thought that he had been obsessed with learning martial arts for nearly a month and hadn't checked the accounts for a long time, so he went to two nearby shops one by one and started to check the accounts.

Looking at it, Mu Shuiqing's heart sank, and he said coldly: "Why is the profit of this month and last month so much less than the previous few months? The store is on the right track, and it has not received any suppression from other stores. It should be maintained. It's quite profitable." Could it be that those shopkeepers took advantage of her inaction and started to embezzle again? !
However, the explanation he got made Mu Shuiqing even more confused.

"Miss Qingzhu took a lot of high-end women's clothing, I thought it was for you, Wangfei."

"Miss Qingzhu grabbed the medicinal materials a few times, I thought it was for the prince..."

green bamboo? !She panicked, Qingzhu just returned to her hometown at this time, could it be that she fled privately with the money? !
Mu Shuiqing hurried back to the palace, and when he was about to tell Ji Xiaomo about this, he saw a woman waiting in another pharmacy of the prince, who looked like a green bamboo.She was wearing a bright yellow dress, wrapped in a small jacket.Wearing a bamboo hat on her head and holding a medicine bag in her hand, she seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and was a little cold from the wind. She rubbed her hands together to keep warm.

Mu Shuiqing approached a few minutes, hid in a corner and peeked at it secretly, because the pair of embroidered shoes with special patterns confirmed Qingzhu's identity.Those embroidered shoes were given by Mu Shuiqing.Now that winter is coming, and the weather is getting colder and colder, Mu Shuiqing prepared a pair of warm shoes for each of Ji Xiaomo and Qingzhu.Although the shoes were made by others, the patterns on them were drawn by her.Only this one.

After Qingzhu took the medicine, she hurriedly hired a carriage and walked towards the border of the western suburbs.Mu Shuiqing followed in a carriage.

In front of an alley, the carriage stopped.Qingzhu hurriedly walked into a courtyard with the medicine in hand, and went straight to a certain room.Mu Shuiqing followed secretly, crouched in the grass and peeked at the window.

"Ma'am, the medicine is here. This servant is going to decoct the medicine." Qingzhu pushed the door open and entered, seeing the woman lying on the ground with fragments of a teacup on the ground, she helped her to the bed in a panic, and covered her with a quilt.She measured the woman's forehead with her hand and exclaimed, "Oops, I have a fever!"

lady?

Mu Shuiqing lifted his neck a little higher and peeked at the scene inside the house.Because the distance is too far, Qingzhu's words are vague, and only the word "madam" can be distinguished.

She saw a woman lying on the bed, with seven-foot silk draped messily on the bed.From Mu Shuiqing's point of view, she couldn't see the woman's whole appearance clearly, she couldn't determine her age, she could only see her sick side face.She closed her eyes tightly, her long eyelashes curled up, her face was blushing strangely, and her forehead was covered with sweat.

If it is to save lives, the money will not be pursued...

Xu Shi heard the sound of hurried footsteps, Mu Shuiqing quickly retracted his body into the grass, holding his breath to avoid being noticed by others.After all, breaking and entering private houses is illegal!As a princess, she doesn't want to embarrass the prince!
She looked at the pair of black boots from far to near, and for a moment, her nervous heartbeat seemed to stop at this moment.

Mu Shuiqing raised his head in disbelief, and took a deep breath to relieve his rough breathing.She stared at the most unlikely person leaning on a cane, with black hair flying, and those dark jade eyes were filled with anxiety and worry that she had never seen before.

Mu Shuiqing just stared blankly at Ji Xiaomo who pushed the door open with a dusty face, stepped in quickly, his mind went blank, his lips were slightly pale, and trembled slightly.

"My lord?"
