Mu Mingtang looked at the hosta silently, the high-quality jade was broken like playing in Xie Xuanchen's hands. He didn't even use any force, just the strength of his fingers.
Mu Mingtang thought to herself that fortunately, she had already got her nuts, and now Xie Xuanji's money was wasted. Mu Mingtang re-evaluated the force of the two people and tried to struggle to save himself: "My lord, it has nothing to do with me, I am absolutely innocent."
Xie Xuanchen folded this hosta full of stories into sections and threw it on the ground, which made it a lot more pleasing to the eye. After Xie Xuanchen disposed of the things, he asked, "Tell me, what's the matter with you and him."
Mu Mingtang breathed a sigh of relief, and just allowed his defense before he was sentenced. She immediately explained how she was adopted by the Jiang family, how she accepted the engagement with Xie Xuanji in place of Jiang Mingwei, and how she was sent to the Qiyang Palace after Jiang Mingwei came back.
Xie Xuanchen listened for a while before he understood the relationship between these people. He nodded and said thoughtfully: "That is to say, Jiang Mingwei and Xie Xuanji were engaged, but Jiang Mingwei ran away, and the Jiang family let you go. But then Jiang Mingwei came back, and the Jiang family had nowhere to let you go, so they put You have been stuffed into the Qiyang Palace."
"...That's right." Mu Mingtang murmured, "But there's no need to say that about yourself, right? I always feel that the lord has scolded me and yourself."
Xie Xuanchen sneered, very disdain: "I know how much their father and son have. By the way, who is the Jiang family?"
Mu Mingtang was stunned, she stopped for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing. She hurriedly covered her mouth after laughing accidentally, but she couldn't help it, and her shoulders trembled with laughter.
Mu Mingtang has scolded the Jiang family so much these days, but it is not as ruthless as Xie Xuanchen's sentence. Jiang Honghao will do anything to climb up, but in Xie Xuanchen's eyes, even this surname is not worth mentioning.
This is the biggest blow to the enemy. Xie Xuanchen didn't quite understand why Mu Mingtang laughed, but this woman was more pleasing to the eye than he imagined. Now that she woke up, Xie Xuanchen felt that she was okay and had no plans to kill her for the time being. So Mu Mingtang laughed. Although Xie Xuanchen didn't know why, he still waited patiently for her to finish laughing.
After finally laughing, Mu Mingtang wiped his tears and said, "The Jiang family is the residence of Jiang Honghao, the deputy envoy of the Third Division. Now he may be the official envoy."
Xie Xuanchen realized in a flash: "Because he sent you here?"
Mu Mingtang didn't dare to speak, and nodded slightly. What else does Xie Xuanchen understand? He grew up in these lawsuits and calculations, and he understands the emperor's subtle thoughts better than anyone else.
Xie Xuanchen smiled and said, "It seems that they really think that I won't live long, so they have prepared for me."
Hearing him say this, Mu Mingtang felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She said in a low voice, "Don't say that. You will definitely live a hundred years."
Xie Xuanchen sneered and said, "I know my own body better than you, and I won't live long. What's the point of making these lies. How old are you this year, I'm afraid you haven't even seen the outside world, how do you know what life and death are? concept."
"I know." Since Xie Xuanchen woke up, Mu Mingtang has been obedient, but at this moment he suddenly became stubborn, "Of course I know the concept of life and death. Although I was adopted by Mrs. Jiang in Chenliu, it was not Yingtianfu people. I was originally from Xiangyang."
Xiangyang? Xie Xuanchen was surprised and turned his head to look over. Mu Mingtang pursed his lips and said, "Xiangyang was conquered by the Jie people in Hongjia three years, and my parents also died in the war. Later, I followed the army of refugees and went all the way north to Chenliu. I was a nobody. Naturally, I can’t compare to the prince’s profound understanding of war, but I’m definitely not an innocent and ignorant young lady raised in a boudoir. Someone once told me that life is not easy, and death is too simple, so I struggled all the way. When I arrived at Yingtian, I just survived. That person was my benefactor, and now I want to pass this sentence on to you, Prince."
"Since you are not afraid of death, why don't you have the courage to live?"
In the third year of Hongjia, Xiangyang, and Xie Xuanchen immediately realized what happened that year. When he entered Xiangyang City, half of the city had been destroyed, so devastated that he couldn't bear to look directly at it. She turned out to be from Xiangyang.
When he was in a coma, he vaguely heard Mu Mingtang say something like "the benefactor". At that time, he thought it was a scene.
Xie Xuanchen was silent for a long time and asked, "Have we met before?"
Mu Mingtang cried so hard that he could only nod his head vigorously. Xie Xuanchen relaxed his body and leaned on the soft pillow that made him feel very motherly. After thinking for a long time, he found a similar, vague shadow in the depths of his memory.
Back then, she was so young, she fell to the ground and was so frightened that she couldn't move. She was so weak that Xie Xuanchen felt that if she left this street, she would not be able to live. Unexpectedly, such a weak little girl just walked out of the city, survived among the refugees, and walked to Yingtian with her feet.
He would never have imagined that the little girl he had just rescued back then was now the one who accompanies him on the final journey. He grew up in a military camp since he was a child. Later, he dared to run after the army with a knife and a horse. The number of people who died under his hands was countless, and there were many people like Mu Mingtang who were rescued by him.
He said a word casually, but she remembered it for many years. Today, it was sent back to him as is.
Xie Xuanchen sighed, and for the first time felt that there were still people in this world who remembered him and looked forward to his life. Those years of fighting in the Quartet and iron horse Jinge have only passed for a few years, but it seems to have been far away from him.
Xie Xuanchen rarely recalled the past and did not speak for a long time. After a while, he smiled lightly and said, "It's not easy for you to live until now. When I die, I will leave a message and ask them to let you remarry." Xie Xuanchen paused after speaking, and then changed his words. Said: "Forget it, their father and son are hypocritical, I can't trust them. When the time comes, I will contact the old department and secretly send you away."
When Mu Mingtang heard the remarriage, his heart went cold: "Are you arranging the funeral?"
Xie Xuanchen smiled indifferently: "It was originally. People who join the army are not taboo about life and death. Originally, I would not live next year."
"If you haven't come next year, how do you know that you won't survive?" Mu Mingtang said, "When I was on the way to escape, I felt that I couldn't survive several times, but I didn't endure it later. As long as you want If you live, you will always have a chance.”
"How old are you, how dare you teach me?" Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows, his tears moved slightly, and his eyebrows were full of ridicule.
Mu Mingtang bit his lip, sobbed, and said, "When I first learned that I was going to marry, I didn't know you were the Marquis of Wu'an, I just thought I was betrayed, so I pointed at Jiang Honghao's nose and scolded him. Gouguan. Later, I cheated Mrs. Jiang with a large dowry. Oh yes, Xie Xuanji was there that day, and I scolded him too."
Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows in surprise. He thought he was very capable of committing suicide. He didn't expect that there were talented people in Jiangshan, and Mu Mingtang dared to do it better than him.
"So..." With tears in his eyes, Mu Mingtang looked at Xie Xuanchen pitifully, "My lord, you must live. If you die, what will I do? The Jiang family will definitely fix me."
Xie Xuanchen was speechless for a long time. Finally, he threw a handkerchief in front of Mu Mingtang: "Don't cry. Dry your tears and cry again and I'll kill you."
Mu Mingtang hummed, picked up the handkerchief to wipe her tears, and slowly closed her voice. After she woke up, she realized that she had been crying in front of Xie Xuanchen for a long time. She was embarrassed and embarrassed, stood up and looked out: "Why hasn't the imperial physician come yet?"
"Emperor doctor?" Xie Xuanchen laughed, leaned back, and said lightly, "They won't come."
"However, when King Jin left, he clearly said..."
"You also said he came from you. Does he dare to say what he did in Yulintang?"
Mu Mingtang was speechless, thinking that it made sense. Xie Xuanchen seemed to be very indifferent to his own life, he leaned on the bed frame and half-closed his eyes: "Today's matter, you know I know he knows, the emperor and the hospital will never know that I woke up. But that's fine, I can spend a few days in peace and quiet, otherwise, as soon as those immortals appear, I want to wring their necks."
Thinking of Xie Xuanchen's extraordinary strength, Mu Mingtang shivered silently. When he said twist off, it may really be literal, twist off.
At first, Mu Mingtang felt that the guards outside were cowards and made a big fuss. King Qiyang was not an evil ghost, so how could he be so scary. Now that I think about it, King Qiyang is really not an evil ghost, how can the evil ghost be scary.
Mu Mingtang saw that he closed his eyes and looked exhausted. He gently helped him to lie down and quietly put down the bed tent and went out. Mu Mingtang took two steps and looked back at Xie Xuanchen. Across the bed, his profile was blurred, making him more and more holy and innocent.
But such a person has extraordinary lethality.
No wonder, he was invincible after joining the army, known as the walking battle flag; no wonder after his insanity, the imperial court was like a great enemy, so many sergeants were specially sent to guard him, and he also tailored a heavy black iron chain to limit his actions.
Mu Mingtang sighed and walked out gently.
When Xie Xuanchen woke up this time, he didn't know how long he could stay awake. However, according to Mu Mingtang's short-term and subjective judgment, she felt that Xie Xuanchen did not look like the rumored indiscriminate killing, nor was he completely controlled by the will to kill and lost his consciousness as a human being.
Perhaps, he slaughtered his own people back then, and there was another secret.
But no matter what, Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen were tied to the same boat. The emperor wanted him to die, Xie Xuanji wanted him to die, and even the sergeants who were guarding outside wanted him to die. Only Mu Mingtang wanted him to live for a long time. alive. Based on this alone, Mu Mingtang will do his best to make him get better as soon as possible.
The most urgent task now is to replenish his body, at least not to let him not even have the strength to sit up. Secondly, it is to open the black iron chain so that he can move freely.
For a proud person like Xie Xuanchen, he would rather die than live with such a branded chain.
·
Xie Xuanchen has another good thing after waking up, that is, he can eat.
At night, Mu Mingtang tried to wake him up, but he really succeeded. Mu Mingtang was overjoyed, and immediately brought his own dishes and fed them to Xie Xuanchen.
When she ordered the menu yesterday, she did not expect Xie Xuanchen to wake up, so today's dishes are not very suitable for patients to eat. But it is better to eat fresh vegetables than to drink liquid food. Mu Mingtang was still talking when feeding Xie Xuanchen: "Your Highness, although the palace is yours, but now, you really rely on my share to eat. Fortunately, I deliberately pretended a few days ago. I cook a lot, and now I eat a lot less, so I won’t be surprised outside.”
Xie Xuanchen did not speak. Mu Mingtang continued to babble: "Speaking of which, I have to find a way to bribe the guards tomorrow. Thanks to the generous dowry I brought, I can support you, otherwise I really can't stand the sale like this."
The blue veins on Xie Xuanchen's forehead jumped, and he raised his head and glanced at her coldly: "Shut up."
He doesn't mention it, doesn't mean he doesn't remember. He still clearly remembers that Mu Mingtang secretly called him Xiaobailian.
