When Mu Mingtang came out, he happened to see Xie Xuanchen drinking tea. Mu Mingtang was frightened by his bold drinking method, and asked, "What's the matter with you, why are you drinking so much water all of a sudden?"
Hearing her voice suddenly, Xie Xuanchen clenched subconsciously. There was a click from the cup, and Mu Mingtang looked over and found that Xie Xuanchen had crushed the teacup made of white jade.
Mu Mingtang was stunned, the jade cup cracked diagonally from the middle, and when Xie Xuanchen let go, the tea cup immediately turned into several petals and fell to the ground.
Mu Mingtang was stunned for a long time, and looked up at Xie Xuanchen in disbelief. Xie Xuanchen came into contact with her sight, and his eyes wandered for a while, but he looked back confidently and said, "This set of cups is not of good quality, so I just need to replace it with a new set."
Mu Mingtang was speechless for a while, Xie Xuanchen was a dangerous person who could make a killer without a killer, so there were very few porcelains in Yulin Hall, just to guard against Xie Xuanchen.
The cups and tea bowls they use every day are either jade, gold or silver, and this is the case with this tea set. The teapot is made of white jade as a whole. The jade is warm and simple, and the lines are smooth and atmospheric. It is a rare boutique. This kind of tea set has always been matched, especially the jade one is unique. If a cup is broken, the whole set of tea sets cannot be used.
Mu Mingtang looked at the pile of debris on the ground distressedly, even if her heart was bleeding, she could only reluctantly ask the maid to come in and sweep it away. Mu Mingtang refreshed his understanding of Xie Xuanchen's prodigal level, and the bear child is really hard to guard against.
After the maid left, Mu Mingtang gritted his teeth quite a bit: "What are you doing! You just destroyed a whole set of jade cups, do you know how much that set cost?"
"Just buy it if it's broken." Xie Xuanchen didn't take it seriously at all, obviously he had been savage since he was a child. Mu Mingtang was not angry, so he took Xie Xuanchen's hand to look over and over, and Xie Xuanchen obediently asked her to hold his hand. The two stood close, Xie Xuanchen smelled a faint fragrance, not spice or any rouge, but the natural fragrance on Mu Mingtang's hair.
The smell is indescribable, but there is a unique fragrance that is far more attractive than artificial spices. Xie Xuanchen sniffed quietly, suddenly remembered what happened just now, and the tips of his ears became a little hot again.
Mu Mingtang was immersed in the grief of losing a lot of money early in the morning, and didn't pay attention to the superfluous things. She held Xie Xuanchen's hand and looked left and right. His fingers were slender and fair, without much flesh, with well-defined joints, and they looked very slender. But it was these hands that crushed the best jade cup in front of her.
Jadeite can be used to make cups, and the hardness is not low. And looking at Xie Xuanchen's actions, he was completely crushed accidentally. Although Mu Mingtang knew that he was stronger than normal people, he still felt incredible when he saw it.
These hands obviously look innocent and harmless, and are weaker than scholars, but they have terrifying power. Mu Mingtang asked, "How did you crush it?"
After Mu Mingtang asked, he didn't answer for a long time. She raised her head strangely, and found that Xie Xuanchen's eyes were wandering, his expression was weird, and he seemed to be thinking about something very focused.
Xie Xuanchen is recalling the breath of Mu Mingtang just after taking a bath. At that time, the fragrance will be more obvious, and there seems to be a faint warm fragrance on her body, but unfortunately she hadn't noticed it before... Xie Xuanchen was thinking, suddenly Mu Mingtang His hair moved, Zhengzhu raised his head and looked at him suspiciously.
Xie Xuanchen woke up suddenly, he had just been thinking a lot, and at this moment, the object of his imagination was staring at him, Xie Xuanchen rarely gave birth to some panic.
That feeling, like being caught doing something bad, is very guilty.
Xie Xuanchen coughed and said with a straight face, "Yes, you are right."
Xie Xuanchen watched Mu Mingtang startled for a moment, and then raised his eyebrows with obvious suspicion. Xie Xuanchen realized that his answer was wrong, he rolled his eyes, and quickly stood up calmly: "I was thinking about the palace just now. Oh, by the way, what did you ask?"
Mu Mingtang didn't suspect him, so he had to ask again: "How did you do it?" Mu Mingtang picked up a cup and tried to exert himself: "Look, it's hard from every angle. Yes, the round shape is very difficult to exert force."
Mu Mingtang later changed both hands and kneaded back and forth: "It doesn't move at all."
Xie Xuanchen picked up a jade cup from the table, squeezed it lightly in front of Mu Mingtang, and said with a "click" again, "That's it."
The jade cup was split in half and completely misplaced. Mu Mingtang's movements were sluggish, Xie Xuanchen saw Mu Mingtang's expression and thought she hadn't learned yet, so he picked up the last remaining jade cup: "Look at my demonstration, if you want to learn, I will let them go outside and buy more Set it back..."
"No, no!" Mu Mingtang hurriedly hugged Xie Xuanchen's hand and rescued the precarious jade cup from his hand, "I don't want to learn, you don't need to demonstrate."
Mu Mingtang was afraid that Xie Xuanchen would accidentally crush another jade cup, so he reached out to stop him without thinking about it. Xie Xuanchen's hands were suddenly covered with a layer of warmth and softness. They had had physical contact before, but they all had serious intentions at the time, and no one was twisting the matter before. But today, Xie Xuanchen was still thinking about something very shady just now. At this moment, when Mu Mingtang held his hand, he suddenly noticed many things that he hadn't paid attention to before.
For example, a woman's skin is really thin and soft, her hands are so soft, what about other places
After Mu Mingtang collected the remaining two jade cups with lingering fears, he looked up and found that Xie Xuanchen was in a daze again. She waited for a while, and saw that Xie Xuanchen was extremely focused, and did not distract the outside world at all.
Mu Mingtang remembered what he said just now. He said that he was thinking about things in the palace. Mu Mingtang knew it. It turned out that he was thinking about family and country affairs. No wonder he was so serious.
Mu Mingtang didn't disturb him, and quietly went out with the remaining white jade tea set. After returning, Mu Mingtang found that Xie Xuanchen seemed to have something on his mind, and his expression was very serious, especially when he saw her.
Mu Mingtang was also embarrassed that he was caught changing clothes in the morning, Xie Xuanchen kept his expression, and Mu Mingtang was embarrassed to look at him. When the two were eating together, the atmosphere was awkward.
After the meal, it was time to change the medicine as ordered by the imperial physician. The maid held the medicine, sake and clean gauze on the table, and then retired. This has become the default rule. The maids dare not stay in front of Xie Xuanchen for a long time. Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang also don't like them being too close. The two sides are tacit, and the maids can just relax.
The maid had already brought the things, and there was no room for fiddling in the face of serious business. Mu Mingtang pretended to have forgotten what happened in the morning, and asked in a businesslike manner, "The injury on your arm is still not healed, it's time to change the medicine."
Xie Xuanchen let out an "um", sat down at the table, and rolled up his sleeves consciously. Mu Mingtang dipped the cotton in sake, wiped the scissors twice, and slowly cut the gauze in Xie Xuanchen's hand.
He didn't know when the wound was bleeding again, and the blood scab and the gauze were glued together. Mu Mingtang felt pain when he saw it. She moved extremely cautiously, almost cutting two knives to change direction, but Xie Xuanchen urged her: "It's okay, you can just tear it apart."
Mu Mingtang sucked in a breath of cold air, she gave Xie Xuanchen a hard look, took cotton dipped in water, and peeled off the blood-stained gauze little by little. This is a very meticulous job, Xie Xuanchen can't wait to tear it apart by himself, but Mu Mingtang himself is very patient, his hand is very steady, and his breath slowly beats on Xie Xuanchen's arm, and he is not impatient at all.
Mu Mingtang took off the last piece of gauze with ease, and heaved a long sigh of relief. She put on a new cotton ball and carefully scrubbed the sides of his wound with wine. Mu Mingtang felt distressed while wiping: "It was obvious that the blood had stopped yesterday, why is it bloody again? Did the wound cracked yesterday?"
Xie Xuanchen said in a light tone, "It's okay, it didn't crack, it's the poor medical skills of those imperial physicians."
If Imperial Physician Zhang and the others heard that they had to go on a hunger strike, it was clear that he did not listen to the persuasion last night and forcibly returned with Mu Mingtang, who was already asleep, which caused the wound that had just healed to tear again. As a result, when he came to him, he became a poor doctor.
Xie Xuanchen said these words without blinking, and there was no shame in his tone. Although Mu Mingtang trusts Xie Xuanchen unconditionally, but the basic conscience is still there, knowing that Xie Xuanchen's words are very irresponsible. She thought that she had changed her place as soon as she opened her eyes today, and probably guessed that it was accidentally torn when Xie Xuanchen brought her back last night.
The newly healed wound is very fragile, especially when Xie Xuanchen made so many wounds on his arm, he didn't find it difficult to hold someone, but his body was fleshy. Mu Mingtang sighed in his heart, wiped the wound more carefully, poured the gold sore medicine, and slowly wrapped it in gauze: "Tell me the truth, the imperial physicians are all good doctors from the palace, and I will handle the wounds, they will Can't you do it? In fact, I can sleep in other places for a night, so why is it worth your wounds like this?"
Xie Xuanchen couldn't agree with this. He said, "Why doesn't it get in the way? Now is different from the beginning. If I can't see you again when I open my eyes, I won't be able to find you easily."
Mu Mingtang had already tied a flat knot on the gauze, and when she heard Xie Xuanchen's words, her lips moved, as if she had something to hide: "But... this is just an expedient measure, I always have to move outside to sleep. I could have stayed outside yesterday, but now the opportunity is gone, what excuse am I going to find today to move out?"
Xie Xuanchen paused, looked away, and said, "What's the hurry, you can always find opportunities. You don't have to think about it, just leave it to me."
Xie Xuanchen has always been reliable in serious matters, Mu Mingtang listened to him and immediately put down his heart and waited for his solution wholeheartedly. Mu Mingtang put medicine on the wounds one by one, wrapped them properly, and then put down his sleeves like he was holding something fragile.
"Be careful, I didn't hurt you, did I?"
Xie Xuanchen is very speechless. He has never been idle since he was a child. Later, he galloped through the battlefield, and his body was never broken, big or small. Today, this level of injury can't enter Xie Xuanchen's eyes. How can he use such a mother-in-law
Xie Xuanchen's words were about to be said, but looking at Mu Mingtang's nervous expression, he didn't know why he changed his mouth and said vaguely: "Fortunately, I can hold it back."
Mu Mingtang felt even more distressed when he heard it, and frowned, "Then it takes more frequent dressing changes. The imperial doctor ordered twice, and I think three times in the morning, noon and evening."
Xie Xuanchen's eyes moved, he didn't know what he thought, and sighed lowly. Mu Mingtang was surprised and asked, "What are you sighing for, it sounds like you are sorry?"
Xie Xuanchen shook his head and said nothing: "It's okay."
In fact, Xie Xuanchen was thinking just now, how did he prick his arm yesterday, he should greet him. Unfortunately, I didn't think about the drug at the time.
Naturally, Xie Xuanchen would not tell Mu Mingtang this kind of thing. Mu Mingtang asked twice but didn't get the result, glanced at Xie Xuanchen suspiciously, and no longer tangled. Mu Mingtang put away his things and sent Xie Xuanchen back to sleep. He lost blood and lost his strength, and needed rest the most. This morning has been delayed for a long time, and it is time for Xie Xuanchen to sleep early.
After Xie Xuanchen went back to rest, Mu Mingtang had nothing to do, so he packed up in the room. When the incident happened suddenly yesterday, many people broke into her house, and Mu Mingtang was already very unhappy, but it didn't stop there, her door was demolished by those reckless men!
Although someone installed the door soon after, the interior was also knocked into a mess. These can only be sorted out by Mu Mingtang himself, and Mu Mingtang just took this opportunity to clean up the furniture in Yulin Hall. Those cumbersome, useless, might as well remove.
Mu Mingtang was too lazy to call a maid, so he rummaged through the room by himself. She snorted when she opened a cupboard. This cupboard was big and heavy. Mu Mingtang thought it was cumbersome and didn't often use it here. But here, why are there aromatherapy balls
Mu Mingtang picked up the flower and bird copper incense ball and looked at it. No matter how the copper ball turned, the spoon containing the spices remained level.
This style is not unfamiliar to Mu Mingtang. She has many similar incense balls, but they are all gold or silver, and the patterns are more delicate than this one. Such incense balls can be hung between the bed tents or worn on the body. They can be left to incense or burn incense with fire. In addition to their exquisite appearance, they are very popular with female relatives.
Mu Mingtang is no exception. Xie Xuanchen never buys things one by one, and he prepares a lot of accessories for her clothes. In addition, Mu Mingtang basically collected all the golden incense balls on the market in order to scour the emperor's wool some time ago. But Mu Mingtang knew what was in her warehouse, and she was sure that it was not hers.
What's more, Mu Mingtang leaned in and sniffed, and was sure that it was burnt inside. This is even more unusual. Even if Mu Mingtang forgot an incense ball, she would not throw anything with fire in the wooden cabinet to burn. She is very vigilant about fire and would never make such a mistake.
Mu Mingtang instinctively felt that something was wrong, and took this scented ball to watch it repeatedly. At this moment, the voice of the maid came from behind, and Mu Mingtang immediately held the aroma ball with his backhand and hid it in the palm of his hand.
She turned her head and saw a maid in blue clothes standing at the door. She lowered her eyebrows and asked pleasingly, "Princess, the kitchen just sent someone to ask, the lunch is ready, when will it be delivered?"
Mu Mingtang calmly covered the aroma ball in his sleeve and said, "Let's go now, you tell them to set the meal."
"Yes." After the maid finished speaking, she left respectfully. I don't know if it was Mu Mingtang's illusion, but she always felt that the maid gave a quick glance at her sleeve before stepping back.
After the incense ball incident, Mu Mingtang immediately remembered another strange thing. Coincidentally, she had planned to go to Xiangguo Temple yesterday, but she decided that it was a waste of time to go out, so she gave up. If she really went out as planned, she would definitely not be able to come back in a while, that is to say, when Xie Xuanchen was sick, she was still outside the house.
Mu Mingtang suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Because of something in his heart, Mu Mingtang couldn't stop thinking about the aroma balls when he ate lunch, and the food used for this meal did not taste good. After the noodles were removed, Mu Mingtang made up his mind to find an imperial doctor in the afternoon to see the spices in this incense ball.
As long as she is paranoid, it's best if nothing happens, and she can buy peace of mind for herself.
When Xie Xuanchen woke up at noon, he found that Mu Mingtang was taciturn and obviously preoccupied. Xie Xuanchen asked, "What's wrong?"
This matter was suppressed in Mu Mingtang's heart for a noon. She didn't want to show it or tell anyone, but now Xie Xuanchen asked, she said naturally: "There is one thing, I don't know how to deal with it."
"what?"
Mu Mingtang hesitated before speaking, and said in a low voice, "I found an incense ball in a cupboard that I haven't used for a long time in the bedroom, and it was still burnt inside."
Although Mu Mingtang only talked about it, Xie Xuanchen understood at once. His face also turned cold, and he asked, "Where is the thing?"
"I put it in the cabinet." Mu Mingtang didn't dare to wear it on her body. She was afraid that there was really a problem with this spice. She would hurt Xie Xuanchen when she got close to Xie Xuanchen, so she put it in the cabinet after eating. Now that Xie Xuanchen mentioned it, Mu Mingtang got up immediately and found the incense ball from the cabinet.
Mu Mingtang seemed hesitant after getting the things, Xie Xuanchen had already sat up, his face was calm and indifferent, different from usual: "I'm fine, bring it."
Mu Mingtang could only endure worry and hand it to him. After Xie Xuanchen brought it over, he turned between his fingers and suddenly leaned towards the tip of his nose. Mu Mingtang was startled, and stopped him quickly: "Dangerous! The imperial doctor hasn't seen it yet."
Xie Xuanchen asked, "Did you call an imperial physician?"
"Not yet. But I plan to secretly let Imperial Doctor Zhang see it in the afternoon."
Just after Mu Mingtang finished speaking, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside, and the maid shouted in panic: "Princess, the big thing is bad, people drowned in the garden!"
The maid's voice was not small, and the room could hear it clearly. Xie Xuanchen laughed and said, "No need to ask, there are already results."
