In the human world, the Shang state merged with the state.
Showa Palace, Chengen Palace.
Under the rose-red gauze curtain, a plain white figure tossed and turned, sighing from time to time.
She finally got into the glory of Sima Luo City, and it was a very happy thing to have the opportunity to stay in this palace for a night.
But she didn't expect that she was so lucky that she couldn't fall asleep lying on this warm and fragrant soft jade couch.
Maybe it’s the bed, maybe the bed is too big, maybe the lights in the hall are too bright, or maybe the incense in the hall is too heavy.
In short, she tossed and turned all night long, tried various sleeping positions horizontally and vertically, and counted thousands of sheep and stars, until she managed to sleep for a while until midnight.
It was only around midnight when she suddenly woke up, feeling restless and restless in her heart. Her chest was so tight that she could no longer sleep peacefully.
He had no choice but to lift up the quilt and get down to the ground, throw his blouse casually over his shoulders, pour himself a cup of herbal tea, and drink it all.
He sat in front of a short table with his hands on his chin, looking out the window boredly.
But I saw a flash of green shadow outside the window, and the faint fragrance of wood drifted in with the wind.
"Mu Mu, you can't sleep either? What are you doing under my window so early? You're not here to spy on me, are you? Hehe!" She got up and ran to the window quickly, only to see Mu Zili wearing a blue shirt with silky hair.
Her hair was high, her eyebrows were drawn into her temples, and she waved the folding fan in her hand. She looked so handsome and graceful that she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Well, she admitted that she just admired his handsome appearance.
Everyone has a cute and beautiful heart, right?! Hey, she couldn't help but laugh at herself a little in her heart.
She was inexplicably irritable just now, but now that the beautiful man is in front of her, she has long forgotten about it.
Until Mu Zili frowned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Meng'er, what are you worried about?"
He didn't ask her, but he forgot that she didn't sleep for almost the whole night, and she didn't brush her teeth or wash her face, and she even didn't even wear clothes...
As I was thinking about it, I suddenly lowered my head and saw that I was wearing a plain white shirt. It was okay! Pajamas in this world are quite conservative.
"My eyelids were twitching all night last night and I really couldn't sleep! I counted the stars and sheep for half the night before I managed to sleep for two hours. Do you think something bad happened?" Shi Meng's face drooped.
, pouting and complaining.
Obviously Mu Zili didn't understand the connection between her insomnia and Counting Stars Sheep, but she had always behaved differently from ordinary people. Now that her fair cheeks were a little dull and her eyes were bloodshot, she couldn't help but feel a little pain in her heart, and she rolled her sleeves.
Touch her cheek gently.
"Meng'er may have been frightened by the talisman under the tower last night, so she couldn't sleep peacefully. I'll use some spiritual power to help Meng'er adjust her breathing." Mu Zili saw that her eye sockets were sunken and she was slightly blue. She was obviously frightened.
state.
He was in a hurry last night, only focusing on matters in Sima Luo City, and neglected her. Looking at her condition now, he felt a little uneasy.
Shi Meng curled her lips slightly, half-believing, "Maybe! But my eyelids are twitching so much that I'm really upset, and I always feel that something is happening." Originally, she comforted herself that if her left eye twitched, she would get rich, but with the rhythm of her eyes twitching together, she couldn't believe it.
I really don't understand.
Seeing a gloomy flash in Mu Zili's eyes, he suddenly remembered Cai Xilai, who was angry with them the day before yesterday. Yifeng had been chasing her for several days, but he didn't send a message to report that she was safe.
"Mumu, could something happen to Yifeng? Last time he was injured by the bird demon in Yushan, I had nightmares all night long. Although I didn't have nightmares last night, this inexplicable upset really scared me.
You quickly try to contact him with Bodhi leaves and find out where he is now? Have you caught up with Caixi? I am very worried about him..."
Xi Meng's words made the usually calm Mu Zili slightly startled. She didn't say that he had almost forgotten about it. When he got up this morning, he noticed that the bodhi leaves in his arms were trembling, but he could not hear it when he concentrated his energy to perform the spell.
Hearing Yifeng's voice, could something really happen to him?
Thinking that he had secretly stirred up a gust of cool breeze, he saw that most of the fallen leaves in the courtyard were swept into the wind and moved towards the outside of the palace.
At the moment, I can only use the breath of the wood spirit to follow the wind to find the whereabouts of Yifeng and Caixi. I just hope that they are safe and sound.
Xi Meng saw that he didn't speak for a long time, but he stared at the empty space in the courtyard in trance.
"Wood?!" Simeng raised her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. He had come back to his senses, smiled faintly, and slowly put his palm on her cheek, saying softly: "Don't worry Meng'er, I'm with you in everything, everything will be fine."
.”
Xi Meng's eyes were slightly closed, her cheek pressed against his generous and warm palm, and she breathed in the faint woody fragrance of his body. Her originally restless heart gradually calmed down.
At this moment, soft footsteps came from outside the courtyard door. Mu Zili turned around and saw two women dressed as maids slowly approaching with basins in their hands.
Simeng originally thought they were just servants cleaning up in the morning, but she didn't expect them to walk straight towards them. When they came to them, they already leaned down to greet them, "I have been ordered to help you two wash up!"
Mu Zili was slightly stunned, and Xi Meng was also startled. Just now, he wanted to go back and sleep in his cage, but now it seemed that there was no hope.
Shi Meng put away her disappointment and signaled the maid to come into the palace to talk. After the maid put the basin in place, she picked up the brocade handkerchief, soaked it in water and twisted it before coming up to wipe her face. She hurriedly raised her hand to block it, and smiled coquettishly, "Thank you very much.
Sister’s kindness, I’ll do it myself!”
The maid was so frightened by her that her knees softened and she knelt in front of her, "Young master, you dislike your slave's clumsy hands and feet?"
Xi Meng looked down at her little face and turned pale with shock. Even her voice was trembling a little. Remembering her "Young Master" just now, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Sister, please get up quickly! I'm not a young master!" She bent down to help the maid get up, and whispered in her ear, "Sister, I don't know, but actually I'm just the personal maid of the young master in blue. I think my sister is a servant.
Your Majesty ordered me to come here, but I recognized the wrong person and went to the wrong place. My Lord Sima is resting in the main hall. You go and serve him, change clothes and wash up!"
When Mu Zili came in from the outside, he happened to see her smiling evilly and saying something in the maid's ear. The maid's originally pale face suddenly turned red, and her big eyes looked at her suspiciously.
.
"This...servant is so blind that he didn't notice that the girl is a girl! Please don't blame me for being rude!" She blinked and looked at the woman in white in front of her. She was clearly dressed as a man, although her facial features were raw.
She was quite handsome, but her features were so heroic that it was no wonder she would admit her mistake.
"No wonder, no wonder! Don't say it's you, it's your princess..." Xiong Meng's words felt inappropriate, so he turned his head to the window and changed the subject, "It's getting late, two sisters.
It’s better to go to the main hall and serve my young master!”
After finally sending the two maids away, Xi Mengcai packed up and was about to go to the main hall with Mu Zili to discuss with Sima Luocheng when to leave the palace. Before the two of them left the palace, they heard Sima Luocheng's clear voice, "
Brother Mu! Miss Meng! Your Majesty is hosting a banquet in Lingyan Pavilion, please go with Luo Cheng."
