Chapter 35

After that, it was the most popular program in the teahouse-telling stories.Mu Shuiqing invited Old Man Chen, a well-known mouthpiece in the capital, and told him all the anecdotes and anecdotes he could remember, as well as those famous novels, such as the Four Great Classics, Internet novels, and so on.

Mu Shuiqing's story is not vivid, but rather boring, but this story is different after old man Chen's mouth. The vivid and exaggerated expression and the appropriate rhythm of playing the board attract the guests in the teahouse one by one. Then step into the world of novel and interesting stories.

Everyone listened while drinking tea and eating melon seeds. In an instant, the consumption in the teahouse doubled.

After all, Ji Hengyuan is the emperor, and he only stayed for half an hour before going back to deal with the government affairs.Today, he came to attend the opening ceremony of a teahouse, and some ministers objected to it.

Before leaving, Mu Shuiqing saluted and asked, "Your Majesty, are you satisfied?"

Ji Hengyuan took a deep look at Mu Shuiqing: "That's right. I didn't come in vain today. Shuiqing is more powerful than I thought. The story is interesting, but the dance is still beautiful."

The dancing girl is not a professional, it was Mu Shuiqing who improvised and only trained for half a month.To have such a result, Mu Shuiqing felt that it was already very good.

"I will come again when I'm free in the future." Ji Hengyuan took a step towards Mu Shuiqing, held her hand, ignored Mu Shuiqing's struggle, and stuffed the paper into her hand, "When At that time, Qing will make tea for me again..."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

After Ji Hengyuan left, Mu Shuiqing glanced at the paper, was startled, then tore it up in annoyance, and threw it into the wastebasket casually.

After that, Mu Shuiqing calmed down, and personally brought a group of close friends into the private room to teach the secrets of how to make up.The makeup of ancient people is really not to be seen directly.In particular, they think that the more colorful the painting is, the more beautiful they are. They often paint a beautiful girl with two strokes of blood-red rouge on her cheeks, ruining a beautiful face.

Mu Shuiqing combined the secret beauty recipes of her own beauty hall, and promoted her products while teaching them.Now the wives and ladies all follow her everywhere for the sake of beauty!It can be described as a double gain of fame and fortune.

In the evening, the applause continued, and the audience did not leave until the show was over.Mu Shuiqing, who was always wearing an elegant smile and was about to twitch, immediately ordered the staff to clean up the teahouse and take stock of today's profits after seeing off the guests.

But Mu Shuiqing didn't know that from the beginning to the end of the opening ceremony, Ji Xiaomo watched silently from the second floor of Yixian Building opposite.Of course, what he watched was not some weird show but Mu Shuiqing.

Ji Xiaomo saw her every frown and smile, her sleepiness and fatigue, and even the look of light in her eyes when counting the money, and couldn't help but chuckle slightly.

He thought that in Mu Shuiqing's heart, nothing is more important than money...

After seeing Mu Shuiqing counting the money, he suddenly fell on the table holding the money in a strange posture, Ji Xiaomo got nervous and flew over with lightness kung fu.Of course, even flying such a short distance with this half-crippled body made him feel uncomfortable enough, so he bent down and coughed.

"Princess, princess?"

Ji Xiaomo looked down, at this time he was coughing so shockingly, Mu Shuiqing was still holding Yinzi tightly, his brows and eyes were gently closed, and suspicious liquid was flowing from the corner of his mouth.He breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help being a little funny, he didn't know if he was laughing at Mu Shuiqing's ugly sleeping appearance, or at his own fuss.

There was no one around, it was very quiet.Ji Xiaomo withdrew his cool look, and his black and indifferent eyes turned warm when he looked at Mu Shuiqing's sleeping face.Unexpectedly, he bent down, gently wiped the corner of Mu Shuiqing's mouth with his sleeve, and took off his coat and put it on her body.

Those things that are buried in the bottom of my heart and are too careful not to be seen by others, the stronger they are, the more vigilant they should be, but they are slowly indulging in them...

"Hmm... my lord?" Mu Shuiqing rubbed her eyes, her bright almond eyes were full of water, she asked confusedly, "Why is my lord here?"

Mu Shuiqing didn't expect Ji Xiaomo to come back today. After all, five days ago, Ji Xiaomo couldn't even get out of bed, but now he stood in front of him as handsome as a green bamboo, with a graceful demeanor.It seems that the illness is mostly cured...

What Mu Shuiqing is most happy about is that he can come today, which shows that Ji Xiaomo is not ignoring or alienating himself, and he may be looking forward to today's opening just like himself.

Mu Shuiqing immediately claimed credit: "My lord, I earned one hundred and seven taels of silver today, and after deducting miscellaneous expenses, I still have 100 taels!"

"Ok, I know."

I don't know if she was sleepy or not, but Mu Shuiqing actually felt that Ji Xiaomo was looking at her so firmly, the dark eyes were full of tenderness, which made her feel at ease unconsciously.

At this time, Mu Shuiqing thought that Ji Xiaomo had just arrived, and she was only confused for a while, but in fact, Ji Xiaomo had been by her side for several hours in a daze... just staring at her in a daze, thinking about those things Some and nothing, little thoughts of struggling in my heart for a long time... until the sky was completely dark...

Mu Shuiqing patted his face to wake himself up, and suddenly limped out.

Why do you run away as soon as you see yourself?Ji Xiaomo frowned dissatisfied.

And the first thing she said was money. Does she have nothing else to say to him besides money?When Ji Xiaomo was feeling bored and confused, he saw Mu Shuiqing limping back with a bunch of things in his hand.

"My lord, this is the clothes I personally designed for you. Although the style is simple, it is also a little bit of my heart." Mu Shuiqing carefully took off the white cloth wrapped around the clothes, and then handed over the brand new clothes, Looking at Ji Xiaomo with a smile.For this dress, she has been busy for many days.

Ji Xiaomo's heart skipped a beat, and he silently put the clothes into his arms.Unexpectedly, Mu Shuiqing still stared at him with bright eyes wide open, he blushed and said, "Change now?"

"En!" Mu Shuiqing nodded sharply, "If the size is not suitable, you can modify it as soon as possible." Seeing Ji Xiaomo holding the clothes nervously with his fingers, hesitating, Mu Shuiqing blinked and teased: "Is the prince not It's convenient, do you need my help?" She is so stupid, the prince must be ashamed of his inconvenient body and inconvenient to change clothes...

Ever since he became acquainted with tailors, Mu Shuiqing was very familiar with dressing and undressing, so with a twitch of his Su hand, he gently tore off the belt around Ji Xiaomo's waist, and began to pick his clothes.

A corner of the shirt slipped off, revealing fair skin and delicate and attractive collarbone.In the face of beauty, Mu Shuiqing swallowed, and all the sleepy bugs flew away.I don't know what it's like to strip your clothes?

Seeing Mu Shuiqing acting like a wolf like a tiger, Ji Xiaomo coughed violently, stretched out his hand and pushed Mu Shuiqing: "Princess... or me... I will do it myself..." Although he had close contact with Mu Shuiqing, That was also when she was in a coma, now that she was staring into her bright eyes, he was unconsciously embarrassed.

"My lord is coughing like this, it must be because of the cold. Don't move around, let me help you quickly undress and dress." Obviously only need to take off the coat, but after the two argued, Mu Shuiqing took all of Ji Xiaomo's clothes Picked it off.

Ji Xiaomo showed his thin and thin body, trembling slightly in the cold wind, looking very weak.His frail little frame looked as if he would fall if pushed.

In fact, only when a man is fatter can he feel safe. Ji Xiaomo is really insecure, so thin... and why is his body so cold...

Seeing Mu Shuiqing groping around, Ji Xiaomo was a little embarrassed, and blushed unconsciously.Speaking of it, he is just a paper tiger when it comes to the love between men and women. He can count on one finger the number of women he has met since he was a child, including his mother, Qingzhu, etc...

Seeing that Ji Xiaomo's face was getting paler, Mu Shuiqing quickly put away his teasing intentions, slowly put on the clothes for him, lowered his head to tie the belt for him, and smoothed out the wrinkles.

"What's wrong with the leg?" Thinking of Mu Shuiqing's limping just now, Ji Xiaomo couldn't help asking.

Mu Shuiqing lowered his head and cried: "I stood in these shoes for a whole day today, and my feet hurt from wearing them... Next time I will never wear such tall shoes again... It really is a sin to be beautiful!"

"Does it hurt? Do you want to take medicine?"

The gentle voice made Mu Shuiqing couldn't help raising her head, but when she raised her head, she was completely stunned.Ji Xiaomo's black hair hung down his shoulders like black silk, and he was dressed in a purple robe, which complemented his flawless beauty. His black pupils were as dazzling as bright stars, like a fairy born out of dust.

Don't look at me so temptingly!
Wait, she is also wearing purple clothes today... Aren't they couples?Ah... what is she thinking...

His heart was beating too fast, and his face was red hot.Mu Shuiqing turned her head away in panic, picked up the plate on the table, grabbed a piece of pineapple cake and stuffed it into Ji Xiaomo's mouth.

"You...cough cough...what are you doing...cough cough..." Ji Xiaomo breathed a sigh of relief, his face turned blue, "Do you want to... choke me to death?" It was fine just now, why did it suddenly become violent again...

Mu Shuiqing patted Ji Xiaomo's back, poured him a glass of water, and changed the subject: "My lord, this is the pineapple cake I made with my own hands, you can taste it slowly."

Ji Xiaomo rolled his eyes, and just wanted to spit out the pineapple cake, he hated sweet and greasy food very much.But when he thought of what Mu Shuiqing did with his own hands, he looked at her suspiciously, saw her nod her head expectantly, and swallowed the pastry by his mouth.The first one was swallowed so quickly that I couldn't taste it at all.He picked up another pineapple cake—it looked very strange, and he took a bite.Despite its appearance, the pastry is soft and melts in the mouth, with a pure fragrance.

In fact... not bad... Speaking of which, Mu Shuiqing's cooking skills are not bad, at least the light porridge that he cooked for him recently is very refreshing and appetizing.

So Ji Xiaomo ate another piece.In fact, he hasn't had dinner yet...he's just looking at Mu Shuiqing...ahem...

Mu Shuiqing tilted his head and stared blankly.The prince even ate cakes and behaved with elegance...

"My lord, you have a nosebleed..."

Ji Xiaomo paused.That's why he hates desserts...because...he gets a nosebleed if he eats too much...

Mu Shuiqing burst out laughing: "My lord, come and drink the new jasmine lemon tea from Yipin Chage, to relieve the heat..." She skillfully brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Ji Xiaomo.

Ji Xiaomo took a sip of tea, and said with a faint smile, "Princess, you also have a nosebleed."

When Mu Shuiqing heard this, he touched the tip of his nose nervously, there was no nosebleed.She was instantly annoyed: "How dare you lie to me!"

Ji Xiaomo smiled, this smile is casual and unrestrained, and everything around him is not as good as the picturesque smile on the corners of his eyes and brows, it seems that he has never had such a hearty laugh for a long time...

Such a flamboyant smile, reflected in the hazy candlelight, made Mu Shuiqing feel a little dazzled, and the deer in his heart bumped uncontrollably, his mind fluttering for the beauty in front of him.

She thought... Maybe she really was going to have a nosebleed...

Outside the house, clothes fluttered, and five black shadows entered the small courtyard in succession.The man in black walking in front stepped up the steps lightly, looked at the shadows of the two people swaying on the paper window, listened carefully, and then gestured to the men in black behind him.

The silent order was issued, and the people in black who were hiding not far away nimbly jumped up the steps and looked at each other with a sneer. Strangely elongated.

At that time, Mu Shuiqing, who was staring at Ji Xiaomo in a daze, hadn't noticed at all that a fatal disaster was approaching quietly, and she never thought that on the first night of Yipin Tea Pavilion's opening, she would be met with an unprecedented blow. escape.

At this moment, Mu Shuiqing stared blankly at Ji Xiaomo, and had to admit that even though the rumored Seventh Prince was sick and dying soon, her husband was a handsome man with both talent and appearance.

Ji Xiaomo handed the pastry to Mu Shuiqing who was staring blankly at him, and said with a light smile, "You haven't had dinner yet, go ahead. Go back, the palace doesn't have anything to eat."

"How does the prince know that I haven't eaten dinner?" Mu Shuiqing tilted his head, and suddenly said in a calm voice, "Are you spying on me?"

Seeing that Ji Xiaomo didn't retort immediately, Mu Shuiqing seemed to gain momentum, and said with his hands on his hips, "My lord, are you really spying on me?!"

Suddenly, Ji Xiaomo seemed to feel something, and a sharp burst of sharpness burst out in his eyes, "Who?!" He shouted violently, which made Mu Shuiqing jump.

As soon as Ji Xiaomo finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the pearl curtain hanging at the door was tugged all over the floor by the man in black who suddenly broke in.Holding a knife, the man stepped on a pile of broken beads and came in majesticly!
Mu Shuiqing was completely dumbfounded, his legs seemed to be nailed to the ground, and he could not move at all.Suddenly, someone pulled her hand heavily, and she was thrown to the ground, barely avoiding the knife, while Ji Xiaomo restrained her breath, pretending to be harmless and dodging in a panic.

The man in black didn't hurt him at all, but just cut off a piece of the new crimson clothes that Mu Shuiqing had just put on for him.Ji Xiaomo's face instantly sank.

"Assassin... Assassin!" Mu Shuiqing shivered and screamed.But the Yipin Tea Pavilion closed down an hour and a half ago, and the guys all went back to rest early because they were too tired.At this time, only Mu Shuiqing and Ji Xiaomo were chased and intercepted by the men in black, and they desperately hacked and killed them!

Mu Shuiqing was still in shock, the two soldiers in black split into two groups and attacked Mu Shuiqing and Ji Xiaomo one after another.She scrambled to get up from the ground, but just after taking a step, her knees suddenly felt severe pain. Her legs went limp, and she fell forward in embarrassment, just in time to avoid a big knife flying in from the window .

If Mu Shuiqing noticed carefully, he would find that there was a clothes button near where he fell, which was accidentally torn off by Ji Xiaomo when he yanked Mu Shuiqing heavily just now.

The knife pierced the ground and penetrated three points into the wood. Two other men in black broke in through the window. The bright light of the knife hit Mu Shuiqing's neck, dazzled her eyes.

She is a weak woman with no martial arts, and Ji Xiaomo is a sick and crippled man. How could they escape the pursuit of the four of them!What's more, what are the benefits of killing them!
