my awesome king

Chapter 9

Although Mu Yuanran dodged in a hurry, Mu Shuiqing's sharp nails still drew three eye-catching bloodstains on his handsome face deformed by anger.

"You hit me!" Mu Yuanran angrily restrained Mu Shuiqing's hand, and swung the other hand up.Mu Shuiqing's eyes widened in horror.

"Yuan Ran!" Mrs. Xu snapped, "Your Highness is waiting." She glanced at Mu Shuiqing, whose face was pale with fright, and said softly, "You are already late, and you still don't go to the banquet to accompany guests! Don't You have failed your father!" In the last sentence, she added a strong warning.

Mu Yuanran let go unwillingly, threw Mu Shuiqing to the ground, then bent down, and whispered in Mu Shuiqing's ear with a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Long time no see, my sister is getting more and more beautiful Like a flower. The prince is physically disabled, so he must not be as brave as my younger brother and me in that respect... If the prince is not good at serving at night, and my sister is lonely, you can find me..." After finishing speaking, he laughed and left.

"Shuiqing." Xu pretended to help Mu Shuiqing, who had fallen to the ground and clenched his teeth angrily, up.She patted the dust on her clothes for her, and apologized: "Don't blame Yuan Ran, he has a bad temper because he couldn't find a job recently, and he didn't really want to be rough on you. You also know that Yuan Ran has been Stick to you, treat you very well."

Mu Shuiqing complained in her heart: "You treat me so well, but I actually have other ghosts in my heart!"

"When you were young, when you were punished by your father to kneel down in the ancestral hall, he secretly gave you food, and he was the one who saved you from drowning, so that you can be favored by the prince at this moment. I think the prince treats you well, You will remember to say a few good words for Yuan Ran in front of the prince."

Seeing Mu Shuiqing's mocking expression and pursing his lips in silence, Mrs. Xu was a little displeased and said, "Did you hear that?!"

Mu Shuiqing gave a soft acknowledgment.

When Mu Shuiqing returned to the banquet, Mu Shilang greeted Mu Yuanran with a smile, pointed at him and proudly said to Ji Xiaomo: "This is my beloved son Yuan Ran. When he was young, he was very friendly with Shuiqing. "

Ji Xiaomo nodded to Mu Yuanran with a smile, his black eyes flickered slightly when he saw the three eye-catching scars on his cheeks, and his voice hoarse due to drunkenness slowly sounded: "Your son is really a good-looking talent."

Hearing the praise, Mu Shilang was very proud, and while urging him, he blinked at Mu Yuanran and hinted: "Yuan Ran, why are you standing there, why don't you respect your brother-in-law!"

After Mu Yuanran served Ji Xiaomo the wine, he toasted him with a glass in his hand: "Brother-in-law, please."

When the cup was lightly touched, Ji Xiaomo swallowed it up.

"Brother-in-law is the real good-looking talent. He looks extraordinary. When I saw him today, I feel ashamed." While flattering Mu Yuanran, he poured wine on Ji Xiaomo.

Ji Xiaomo was already a little drunk, but now that he has had a few glasses of wine, his consciousness has become more and more confused. He only knows that he keeps praising him, which makes him feel embarrassed.

"My lord, Yuan Ran is a very responsible and filial child, do you think there is any good job for him?"

"I have no right to interfere with this..."

Mu Shilang poured wine for Ji Xiaomo again. Seeing Mu Shuiqing standing there, he smiled at her very gently, and said, "Shuiqing, what are you doing standing there? Tell the prince how good Yuan Ran is." .”

Mu Shuiqing stepped forward, looked at Ji Xiaomo with misty eyes, took away the wine in his hand, and said softly to Mu Shilang: "My lord is already drunk, I can't drink any more...it's not good for his health. Okay...let me drink it..."

Ji Xiaomo raised his head slightly, and Mu Shuiqing's serious and worried face came into view. Her hand was still placed on his, very cold. Among them, most of the nail on the index finger of his right hand was peeled off, showing some bloodshot.He looked up at Mu Yuanran's face, thoughtful.

"The conversation between us men, why are you interrupting!" Mu Shilang glared at Mu Shuiqing, then handed the wine glass to the dizzy Ji Xiaomo, and said softly, "The prince only needs to be beautiful in front of His Majesty." A few words are enough. My lord, we are all one family... This trivial matter is easy to do... From now on, the Mu family will dedicate themselves to the lord and die!"

"Yeah, brother-in-law, just say a few words of kindness for me... With my brother-in-law's ability, it will definitely work... I will definitely look up to my brother-in-law from now on..."

"Hmm..." Ji Xiaomo smiled lightly, "I'll just tell Brother Huang..."

Seeing that Ji Xiaomo was about to be betrayed, Mu Shuiqing couldn't help pinching his palm with his nails, but he suddenly stood up, raised his wine glass and bumped into Mu Yuanran's face, Intentionally or not, he happened to bump into the three scars on Mu Yuanran's face, which made him grin his teeth in pain, but because of Ji Xiaomo's identity, he didn't dare to attack.

Then Ji Xiaomo fell drunk on the table with a "plop", and the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground and broke.

"Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo?" Mu Shilang gently shook his body, saw that he was drunk and unconscious, curled his lips unwillingly, "At the critical moment, he was actually drunk!"

Mu Shilang ordered someone to help Ji Xiaomo into the room, and took good care of him, while he dragged Mu Shuiqing into the study room, and shouted sharply: "We were talking just now, why did you interrupt! Don't you want your brother to be successful!"

"The prince is not in good health and should not drink alcohol. You shouldn't use despicable means to get his promise!" Mu Shuiqing was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, she said coldly, "What is Mu Yuanran, don't you Do you know? Back in the Ministry of War, he was absent from work for many days without reason, and he was idle all day long! You actually let the prince grant him an official position! Aren’t you ruining the prince’s reputation!"

His daughter has always been well-behaved and submissive, but now she resists and talks back!Mu Shilang slapped the table angrily, and said angrily: "Now that you've grown up, you've learned to talk back?! Don't forget who made you achieve what you are today! Why, do you forget your mother's family when you marry the prince?" ! An unfilial daughter!"

Mu Shuiqing sneered: "How dare I. It was really thanks to the drug my father gave..."

"Why, you blame me for this?" Mu Shilang frowned and said, "The prince treats you well. He is handsome, talented and rich. He doesn't have a maid, and you are the only concubine. Why are you dissatisfied?"

His voice softened, regardless of Mu Shuiqing's resistance, Mu Shilang touched her head and said, "You are my daughter, how can I hurt you...I will only help you..." As he spoke, he He gently hugged Mu Shuiqing in his arms.

At this moment, Mu Shuiqing was dominated by the remaining emotions in his body, and even forgot to resist.She choked up and sobbed softly, leaning on Mu Shilang's shoulder.In the heart of the real Mu Shuiqing, how much she longed for her father to hold her tenderly and take care of her...

Seeing Mu Shuiqing obediently obediently, the corner of Mu Shilang's mouth slightly raised. He patted her on the back and said in a low voice, "My lord, what is it... dead?"

Mu Shuiqing's heart turned cold, and she withdrew from Mu Shilang's embrace in a panic: "...you..."

"My lord only has half a year to live." Mu Shilang's eyes flashed coldly, "Remember to seize the lord's wealth as soon as possible, and don't let those petty tricks take it away."

Mu Shuiqing took a step back in fear, and kept shaking her head: "So that's the reason why I was married..."

"If you can conceive a man and a half woman, it's the blood of the royal family! In the past few days, remember to stick to the prince at night..."

Mu Shuiqing covered his ears and roared in pain: "I'm not a tool, not a tool for you to pursue fame and fortune!"

She rushed out of the door in a panic, staggered, and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

"princess?"

After Mu Shuiqing stood firmly, he raised his eyes and saw Ji Xiaomo staggeringly drifting over, his long black hair was blown into a mess by the wind, his black eyes were tainted with misty water vapor, and his cheeks were blushing. , obviously still drunk, not sober.

He stretched out a hand towards her, and his white and slender hands gently lifted her from the ground.

Mu Shuiqing held Ji Xiaomo's hand tightly as if grasping a life-saving straw, and whispered softly: "My lord, it's getting late, let's go..."

She cried and said, "Take...take me out of here..."

"The water is clear..."

Hearing Mu Shilang's call, Mu Shuiqing trembled unconsciously, hiding in Ji Xiaomo's arms in fear.

Ji Xiaomo held her half in his arms, covered his head with his slender fingers, and was confused: "Father-in-law, Xiao Mo is a little too drunk, so I'm going to leave first." He raised his hand, intentionally or unintentionally covering Mu Shilang with his sleeve Inquiring into Mu Shuiqing's line of sight, regardless of whether Mu Shilang agreed or not, he took Mu Shuiqing and left slowly.

Obviously not a strong chest, obviously a weak body that can't even walk steadily, for some reason, Mu Shuiqing feels unusually reliable, unusually at ease, and unusually wants to get close to his heart.The warm touch, the beating heart, was beating gently in her ear.

After Ji Xiaomo left, Mu Shilang picked up Jin Ruyi in the gift box, touched it a dozen times, and took a bite, then.He snickered to Mrs. Xu who entered the room: "It feels smooth, as if touching silk. The appearance is crystal clear, golden and very shiny. I took a bite just now, and it is real gold! This gold Ruyi is expensive! "

"And this!" Mu Shilang opened another gift box, and carefully took out the multi-treasure inlaid lacquerware inside one by one, inlaid with various precious jadeite, agate, sapphire, white jade, hibiscus stone, lapis lazuli, etc. , making lacquerware gorgeous, rich, elegant and vigorous.He stroked greedily: "I don't know how much silver these can be exchanged for..."
