Chapter 21 I will stay and be a rough envoy to His Royal Highness for one night
Everything happened so suddenly, Li Mu had no preparation at all. At this moment, he was tasting a mature woman on his back, shaking nervously.
He was at a loss and couldn't express what he meant. Fu Xianyue wished he could faint and die immediately.
Yanjing Alley is very short, but this moment is very long, very confusing, and very beautiful. It feels like a century has passed between the two of them.
Finally reaching the finish line, Li Mu discovered that Fu Xianyue's hands, which he had not known where to place from the beginning, had gently hugged his neck.
The courtyard door was ajar, so Li Mu went in directly and put Fu Xianyue down in the corridor.
Fu Xianyue didn't know whether it was because she was overly nervous, or because the unexpected sweetness made her dizzy and confused.
Fu Xianyue said: "Your Highness, please keep today's affairs a secret. Come to the first room, scrub it, don't turn your head, don't look at me, please?"
Li Mu sat her down and said: "The situation just now is just like the storm at noon. It cannot be resisted by human beings. Don't worry, I will not talk nonsense. Come here, stretch your legs over and I will rub them for you."
Fu Xianyue was so nervous that she retracted her legs.
"You, please don't move, okay? I beg you, Your Highness, I wish I could crawl into a crack in the ground."
Li Mu laughed and said: "There are no cracks in the ground at the moment. Even if there is, it is filled with mud and water. If you don't rub your feet, you can't walk. How can you change your clothes? Do you want me to help you change them?"
Can I provide one-stop service?”
Fu Xianyue was ashamed and said angrily: "What a dragon, just go away, I can do it."
Fu Xianyue resisted and tried to stand up, but failed.
Li Mu squatted down and said, "See? I can only be a good person and do it to the end. Come on, stretch your legs?"
Fu Xianyue was completely at his wits end, hesitantly stretched out his injured foot and asked: "Your Highness, please don't touch my feet, me, me."
Fu Xianyue couldn't say anything. If a girl's feet were looked at by a man, it would be over.
Li Muke didn't hesitate, grabbed his foot, rotated it left and right a few times, and suddenly pushed hard.
Fu Xianyue screamed in pain, cold sweat and tears rolled down together.
"Try it. Do you think it's better?" Li Mu put down his foot and said.
Fu Xianyue tried it, and the pain was gone, and he said in surprise: "Your Highness, you, you don't know why you bully me."
Li Mu was confused and asked: "Where did you start talking about this? Did I bully you? Did you?"
Li Mu replayed the scene just now. There was no excessive behavior? Even when he was carrying Fu Xianyue, his hands moved irregularly and the place he hugged was sensitive. However, there was no way to avoid it?
Fu Xianyue lowered his head and said: "You still said no. Since you cured my foot injury in two strokes, why didn't you cure it at the alley just now? Do you have to wait until now?"
Li Mu was dumbfounded. The girl really had weird thoughts, but she could still be so rational at this moment.
Li Mu said: "I was so anxious at the alley just now that I forgot all about it. I just remembered it. Is this wrong? Okay, go change your clothes quickly. Don't catch a cold."
Fu Xianyue said angrily: "Anyway, you, you did it on purpose."
Li Mu couldn't explain, so Fu Xianyue hesitated for a while, stood up, and was able to walk. He held on to the pillars and quickly went to a room inside.
Li Mu took off his dirty coat, threw it on the corridor, lit the lamp, and checked the yard by himself.
The yard is not big, with nine rooms in the front and back, and the four rooms in the front are connected. Inside, various measuring instruments, books, materials, office equipment and other things are divided into categories and placed neatly.
They are all about astronomy, calendar, hydrology and other aspects.
Great place. It seems that this place should be an observation point used by the Taishi Bureau. It has been left unused for a long time.
There are two rows of houses in the back, with a total of five rooms. They should be arranged for accommodation, kitchen and bathroom. Fu Xianyue is behind, and Li Mu is not easy to get close to.
It's a suitable size, remote and clean. I can hide here in the future, be content with my name, and don't have to pay rent.
Among the three caves of Cunning Rabbit, apart from his prince's palace, this place is considered the second cave.
Li Mu rummaged around and found a copy of "Miscellaneous Treatises on Celestial Phenomena", which was compiled in the early Tang Dynasty. There were several people who wrote the book, and Fu Yi's name was also on it.
Li Mu looked with great interest.
However, the roughness of the content exceeded Li Mu's expectations. It seemed to be an astronomical achievement of an era, at most a high school level.
Li Mu was uninterested and was about to put it down when he heard footsteps at the door and smelled the faint fragrance of tea.
Li Mu turned around, and Fu Xianyue had already come in carrying a small tray with a cup of steaming green tea on it.
"Good tea." Li Mu praised, Fu Xianyue placed the tray on the coffee table in front of Li Mu, held the teacup in both hands, and handed it to Li Mu.
Li Mu took the cup and was confused by another elegant fragrance. It was the fragrance of Fu Xianyue.
Fu Xianyue had changed out of her stiff official uniform and put on a plain blue and white dress.
Dignity, elegance, quietness, all kinds of advantages are all in this mature woman.
Li Mu looked a little obsessed. The intellectual girl, the knowledge and cultivation in her body are the most intoxicating.
Fu Xianyue saw Li Mu looking at her, distracted, and her cheeks were red. She lowered her head and said, "Your Highness, what book are you reading?"
Li Mu was startled and suddenly woke up. The book was a bad book, but Yan Ruyu in it jumped out of the page and stood in front of him.
Li Mu was also a little embarrassed and said: "It's a miscellaneous treatise on celestial phenomena written by ancestor Ling. It's very insightful. What's going on with you? It suddenly changed so much that I don't even dare to recognize it."
Fu Xianyue said softly: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, this is an observation point of the Taishi Bureau. I used to be on duty here, mainly collecting hydrological data and surrounding meteorological data from the salt wells in Yanjing Lane. Unfortunately, a year ago, the salt wells suddenly dried up.
, this place has been temporarily abandoned.”
Li Mu said in surprise: "Ah, what a coincidence, no wonder it's so clean and tidy, with everything." Li Mu said, taking a sip of tea, the fragrance was pleasant.
Fu Xianyue said: "I also left here, but nothing here has been moved. Except for the official measuring instruments, they are almost all my personal belongings. His Royal Highness is not too tired to quench his thirst."
Li Mu hurriedly said: "Very good, very good. Only Mr. Fu's character can create such an elegant space. It seems that I am lucky."
Fu Xianyue felt warm after being praised by Li Mu, and ripples inevitably appeared in the mature woman's heart.
Fu Xianyue said: "His Royal Highness is not afraid of grievance. I am already very grateful. Your Highness, all the daily utensils in the back, including food and drink, are all available in the afternoon. There is no problem in keeping them clean."
Li Mu smiled and said: "If I can live up to Mr. Fu's eyes, I naturally believe that I may have to live here for a while in the future."
Fu Xianyue nodded and said: "Your Highness, the prince, is used to being served by others. This place is too simple and there are no servants you like to serve you. Your Highness, for the sake of the country's economy and people's livelihood, has wronged yourself so much. I really don't know what to say."
Li Mu smiled and said: "You and I are the same kind of people, just this hobby, right? The most important thing is to develop the lightning rod as soon as possible. Are you going to leave? How about I send you back?"
Fu Xianyue frowned slightly and said, "I shouldn't leave because of official business. When I leave, there won't even be anyone to bring tea or water. However, there are many things wrong with staying."
Li Mu said: "Are you afraid that others will gossip? Do you care about the nonsense about whether men and women can kiss each other? That's right. It's not convenient for a man and a woman alone. You should go back."
"Yes." Fu Xianyue agreed softly, and Li Mu could only put down the tea cup and pretend to continue reading.
After a while, Fu Xianyue still didn't move, just standing there stupidly.
Li Mu accidentally looked up and found that Fu Xianyue was peeking at him. Li Mu stood up, approached Fu Xianyue, and said, "Come on, I'll take you out. Once you get to the road, you'll be fine."
Fu Xianyue shook her head blankly and said: "Forget it, Your Highness, I have decided to stay tonight. You are working hard for the Taishi Bureau, so why do I care what others say. I will be a rough servant for Your Highness for one night.
It’s also an honor for me.”
Of course Li Mu is happy. Although there is an age difference of five or six years between the two, Li Mu's manly heart is very mature. With a girl like Fu Xianyue by his side, it will be a good thing.
Li Mu said: "Since Mr. Fu is not rigid, that's fine. If possible, let's get something delicious first. I'm really hungry."
Fu Xianyue was inexplicably surprised and kept nodding, "Well, well, I'm the best at this, I'll do it now."
