phoenix jiuxiao

Chapter 57

Mu Qingchen fell asleep and didn't wake up until the morning of the next day.

The bruises all over his body and the soreness seeping from the bone marrow made him stare at Su Hailing fiercely for a long time before he calmed down.

Although Mei Junhan's complexion looked much better than yesterday's, her internal injuries were still serious.I also drank a few bowls of medicine, but because of the lack of medicinal materials in the town, it still had little effect.

"It seems that we still have to go back to Chujing." Mu Qingchen made the final decision.

"Qingchen, can it be delayed for another two days?" Su Hailing frowned.

Mu Qingchen hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said in doubt: "I have controlled his injury, and there is no serious problem for the time being, is there anything Hailing needs to do?"

"It's not me, it's you!" Su Hailing said angrily, "Whether you care about others, what about yourself? Haven't your skills recovered yet? Take a good rest for two days before leaving. Even if you encounter any troubles in Chujing, you can easily escape!"

"It doesn't matter to me." Before Mu Qingchen could reply, Mei Junhan said calmly, "Since Xuanming Palace has blood dance and other hurting skills, it is natural to have corresponding preparations. I can heal my wounds by myself, and I don't have to go back to Chujing myself. cast a net."

"When we came to Southern Chu, we found that the officers and soldiers were inspecting and searching for an injured person everywhere. It really was you?" Su Hailing said.

"Yes." Mei Junhan said calmly, "Southern Chu Wulin has long been colluding with the government, and it is useless to bear the name of the people in the world!"

"I'm curious, what did you, or the Xuanming Palace do?" Su Hailing was puzzled, "The government will not dispatch so many people for you alone for no reason, unless...your existence is very important to the south. Chu is very unfavorable."

"Our cooperative relationship doesn't seem to include my personal affairs?" Mei Junhan asked after being silent for a while.

Mu Qingchen didn't answer, and put his hand directly on the sword at his waist.

"Qingchen!" Su Hailing pressed his hand dumbfoundingly, and pushed back the half-drawn sword.I really don't know why Mu Qingchen, who never cared about anything, didn't like Mei Junhan?I thought they would become friends based on their personalities.

Mei Junhan's eyes turned on them, with a half-smile on his face.

"Ahem!" Su Hailing coughed dryly twice, then turned around and said, "I'm just asking, it's up to you whether to tell me or not."

"Hailing, do we want to go back?" Mu Qingchen asked.

"It's not good to walk around? There are many interesting things in the outside world that you haven't seen before." Su Hailing only felt like a big bad wolf who abducted a pure white rabbit, but she would never return to Xiaohan Mountain at this time .

"En." Mu Qingchen thought for a while, then nodded slightly.

"Don't worry, Caiyun and Mu Xin are both grown-ups, and they will take care of themselves." Su Hailing explained the hidden worry in his heart, and added secretly, it's not sure which one really needs to be taken care of...

"Then, let's break up here." Mei Junhan quietly interjected.

"Is your injury really okay?" Su Hailing said.

"Xuanming Palace has its own secret method of healing, so there is no serious problem." Mei Junhan said.

Su Hailing looked him up and down several times, and was really suspicious.It's not that she doesn't want to believe him, but that this man's forbearance skill is too powerful, maybe as soon as they walk away, he will immediately vomit blood and pass out.

"Since we are collaborators, don't you even plan to give me the minimum trust?" Mei Junhan raised his eyebrows and said coldly and arrogantly.

"Okay." Su Hailing heard the words, determined his heart, and said decisively, "Be careful yourself, if the internal affairs of Xuanming Palace are resolved, I hope you can come to Haiyue Villa in the spring of next year, and I should be there Chinese New Year."

"It's a deal." Mei Jun said coldly.

"Qingchen, let's go." Su Hailing thought about it, and put a small bottle of qi-tonifying elixir made of snow lotus beside his pillow.

Since there is no wanted criminal Mei Junhan with them, there is no need for them to hide. Su Hailing took Mu Qingchen's hand and went downstairs to settle the rent. He was planning to go to a restaurant to eat something before going on the road. Suddenly, a Turning around, a familiar figure came into view.

At the entrance of the inn, a man in blue wearing a bamboo hat and covering his face with a light veil was handing over the reins to the second young lady. His gentle voice passed through the hustle and bustle and warmly imprinted into her heart.

"What's wrong?" Mu Qingchen tugged at her sleeve.

"Haoyue!" Su Hailing couldn't help shouting.

This figure and voice, even if she turned into ashes, she would not admit it wrong!

"Miss?" The man in blue was startled and turned his head. After seeing them clearly, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Yue, why are you here?" Su Hailing greeted her happily.Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for several months.

"I went up the mountain, and Mu Xin told me that Miss and Mr. Mu were going to Nanchu, so I followed the mark left by Miss all the way." Haoyue said, took off the bamboo hat on her head, and smiled, "Someone Said that I saw Miss in this small town, so I came to look for it."

"You've lost weight again, promise me to take good care of yourself, and you won't remember anything." Su Hailing looked at the familiar face and sighed softly.

"I'm fine." Haoyue smiled lightly, and nodded to Mu Qingchen, "Young Master Mu, please stay safe."

"En." Mu Qingchen responded, but didn't know how to answer, and frowned, looking a little embarrassed.Except for Su Hailing and Caiyun and Mu Xin who have been with him all the time, he really doesn't know how to express his kindness to others.

"Okay, let's find a place to sit down and say, don't stand at the gate of someone's house and block their business." Su Hailing smiled, and pulled people to his side one by one.

"Second sister, we won't be staying in the store anymore, please bring all the horses here." Haoyue said.

"Yes, sir, go slowly." The young lady led the two horses out of the stable with a smile.

Haoyue took the reins naturally, and was a step behind.

Su Hailing sighed in his heart, it is really a difficult task for Haoyue to walk side by side with her openly...

Considering Mu Qingchen's body, she didn't go very far, she found a decent-looking restaurant at the end of the street, ordered a few light dishes at random, and sent the waiter from the restaurant to the breakfast stall opposite Bought a bowl of hot soy milk and came over to cushion Mu Qingchen's stomach.

"Miss, I have heard about the evil doctor." After sitting down, Haoyue said the first sentence.

"What?" Su Hailing's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, "Where is it?"

"Nanchu, the imperial palace." Haoyue looked around and lowered her voice.

"Nanchu Imperial Palace?" Su Hailing couldn't help being stunned, "Is your information accurate?"

"It should be accurate." Haoyue solemnly said, "I heard that a year ago, the empress of Nanchu was suffering from a serious illness, and the doctors tied their hands. Became a doctor."

"You said that Shangguan Xuanji actually became the imperial physician of Southern Chu?" Su Hailing's expression was very strange. He didn't expect that the evil doctor with evil temperament in the legend could stay in a rigid place like the imperial palace for a year?
"When I first confirmed the news, I also felt unbelievable, but... it should be true." Haoyue smiled wryly.

"Let's go to Chujing." Mu Qingchen put down the empty soybean milk bowl and said calmly.

"Yeah." Su Hailing smiled, and naturally picked up the silk scarf to wipe off the traces of soy milk on his lips, and said, "Anyway, I have to go and see."

Seeing their intimacy, Haoyue's eyes darkened slightly, and her hands under the table turned white, but in the end... she didn't say anything.

How can I hope that the woman who is as proud as a phoenix will only belong to me?What's more, Mu Qingchen is unparalleled, standing with her is so dazzling.

"Yue, what's the matter?" Su Hailing turned around and saw him looking far away.

"No, it's nothing." A trace of panic flashed across Haoyue's face, she quickly lowered her head, and used the posture of drinking tea to hide the bitterness on her lips.

Su Hailing frowned, and wanted to speak again, but at this moment, the shop waiter had brought up the dishes they ordered one by one.

"Guest officer, take your time." Xiaoer quickly introduced the name of the dish and then retreated.

"Eat." Su Hailing couldn't see Haoyue's thoughts clearly, sighed, and put a piece of ribs into his bowl, "Eat more, and see what you've made of yourself when I'm not around."

"Thank you, miss." Haoyue lowered her gaze, and took a mouthful of rice in the bowl.

Su Hailing shook his head, put another large piece of steamed fish into a small plate, carefully picked out the fishbone, and placed it in front of Mu Qingchen.

Mu Qingchen doesn't like meat and greasy food, and he is basically a vegetarian. Among the meat dishes, he only likes fish, but he doesn't know how to pick thorns, so... the most Su Hailing has done at the dinner table in the past three years is to pick fish bones for him up.

"By the way." Su Hailing thought of Mei Junhan who stayed in the inn, turned his head and said, "Yue, in the spring of next year, a man named Mei will come to Haiyue Villa with snow crystals, a specialty of Xiaohan Mountain, please tell me Zhuang Li, if I'm not around, make arrangements for him."

"Yes." Haoyue agreed, moved her lips, and asked cautiously after a long time, "That young master belongs to Miss..."

"Where do you want to go?" Su Hailing knocked his head with his chopsticks upside down, and said funny, "It's just an ally."

Haoyue let out an "oh", a trace of embarrassment appeared on her face.

"Could it be that Yue... wants to be jealous?" Su Hailing rolled his eyes, and then thought of the expression he saw Mu Qingchen just now, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

"It's...it's not!" Haoyue's voice trembled a little, although she pretended to be calm, she couldn't hide her panic.

"Jealous?" Mu Qingchen raised his head, picked up a stack of vinegared jellyfish skins on the table and put them in front of him.

Su Hailing was stunned, and finally couldn't help laughing.

Mu Qingchen looked at her in a daze, not understanding what he said that made her like this.

"Master Mu, this..." Haoyue couldn't laugh or cry, but the shyness and embarrassment just now gradually faded away.

"What are you laughing at!" Mu Qingchen's eyes flashed coldly, and he kicked under the table.

"No...you're really...very cute..." Su Hailing said while laughing.

"Miss, be careful of choking." Haoyue handed over a cup of tea helplessly.

Su Hailing finally calmed down, looking at the two handsome men with their own styles on the left and right, he couldn't help feeling relieved.

Isn't Haoyue's shy forbearance and Mu Qingchen's ignorance and innocence towards love her favorite side?
