[Gulan] Broken Wild Goose Song

16

Huaping grabbed Musu's sleeve in a daze, and said weakly: "Sir, some paint...haven't come back yet..."

Mu Su hurriedly said: "It's okay, I'll call someone to find him later. Go and rest first."

Only then did Huaping let go of his hand in relief.

Musu stood where he was, seeing that the places where the two girls were kneeling were already wet with sweat, he was so angry that he was about to argue with He Lou at night when he felt a heavy cloak being draped over his back .Turning his head, it was He Lou Chengye's sharp-edged face and amber eyes, so close that he could see the bloodshot eyes.

He Lou put a cloak on him at night and said, "Put on your shoes."

Mu Su originally wanted to reason, but for some reason, he suddenly swallowed it after seeing the blood in his eyes.

He Lou Chengye watched Musu put on his shoes with great satisfaction, then stood by the bed, turned his back to him and asked, "He Lou Shanyu can speak directly if he has something to say."

He Lou looked at him at night, without any change on his face, and said after a long time: "I'm going to the north in a few days, do you want to come with me?"

Musu turned to look at him with hesitation.

He Lou Cheng Ye smiled and said, "Aren't you planning to stay here for the rest of your life?"

"Your Highness Ye Wang is not afraid that the news that I am still alive will be revealed?" Mu Su said calmly.

He Lou Chengye said calmly: "Emperor Xia sent four envoys to find out the truth in January, and the last one already believed that you were dead. And he also knew that Gu was very unhappy."

Musu was taken aback for a moment, then his heart suddenly turned cold: "It's still a good way for His Royal Highness Ye Wang. I'm really scared that Musu is getting so much attention."

He Lou Chengye said indifferently: "It is not difficult for me to disappear alone, even if it is to hide Emperor Xia."

Confidence and arrogance emanated from this man, but Mu Su didn't have the slightest doubt in his heart.

Father had talked about He Lou Cheng Ye with him before, this man seemed to have very powerful influence and artifice before he became Shan Yu, Lang Yue Shan Yu might be a challenge for him, but it was by no means a difficult task.After all, in a place like Lang Yue, there are really too few people who can be called opponents.

Musu looked at the tall man in front of him, the fear in his heart was suppressing his anger and resentment bit by bit.For the first time, he felt that in front of this man, he couldn't think of how to resist.

He doesn't have the slightest weakness or flaw, even if there is, he can't touch it.

He took a deep breath, and was about to refuse, but suddenly heard a commotion outside the door. He looked at He Lou Chengye, but when he saw the other party's frown, he knew that he didn't know what was going on outside the door.

Musu hurried to the door, because he was not allowed to go out, he asked the guard at the door, "What's wrong?"

Although the guards were ordered to guard the door, they did not boss around, but rather respectfully clasped their fists and said, "Wait, sir, I'll go and have a look." After speaking, the two went out one after another.

He Lou Chengye watched from behind, with an imperceptible gleam in his eyes.

He never stipulated the attitude of these guards and maids towards Musu. It was really not easy for him to subdue all the people in this side hall in just one month.He Lou Chengye understands very well that this does not rely on wisdom and skill, it depends entirely on Musu's own character and attitude towards the world.

This is his most natural weapon.

Mu Su was waiting at the door, the noise outside the door was getting louder and louder, if it wasn't for He Lou Cheng Ye who was behind him, he would have almost lifted the curtain to go out.In just a moment, a guard came in with a serious expression on his face, "Sir! Something has happened! Paint..."

Mu Su's heart sank and he said, "How about some paint?!"

"Spot paint... dead."

Musu's heart was like a thunderbolt, he didn't even have time to ask why, he hurriedly opened the curtain and walked out.The guard stretched out his hand to stop him, but He Lou Chengye who came immediately stopped him.

Musu didn't know how long it had been since he had seen the sky, but at this moment he was not in the mood to appreciate the sky. He stood on two steps, his hands trembling.His pupils shrunk to a single point, and his already bloodless face turned even paler.

Below the two steps, several guards formed a circle, and inside the circle was a pile of bloody limbs.

Said it was a limb, because it had completely lost its human form, and Musu saw the half of the inkstone that was still clutched by the bloody hand with just one glance.It was the kind of inkstone that Musu asked Dianqi to fetch.

There was a jerk in his stomach, and he immediately turned his body around, leaning on the pillar and retching.Pressing the slender blue and white hand on the icy stone pillar, it was bone-chillingly cold.

Several guards looked at Musu, not knowing what to do. They stood there waiting for orders, but they suddenly saw someone coming out from the hall, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "My king!"

He Lou Chengye frowned slightly, glanced at Mu Su, then looked at the guards below, and asked, "What's going on?"

One of the guards clasped his fists and said, "Go back to my king, just now a few people carried some paint and threw it here and left. They also said that the servants of the cold palace are no different from livestock. Let us tell the people inside to deal with it."

Mu Su leaned on the pillar, trembling uncontrollably, only then did he understand how He Lou Cheng Ye explained this place.

It is not only the place where the neglected concubines live, but also the place where all the royal families who have committed crimes are confined.

"Whose person?" He Lou Chengye said calmly.He used Langyue's language, but at this time Musu could already understand the ordinary Langyue's conversation, and immediately held his breath.

The guards below were slightly taken aback, glanced at Musu, and then replied in Lang Yue's language, "It's... Princess Huiji's people. The leader is Da Lanle, the head of the guards in Princess Huiji's tent. People... were also killed by them."

A familiar young man beside him said: "Hukala went to fetch things, we asked him to go shopping, passing by...passing by the burnt temple, he suddenly said that his master always said that many things were lost here , so I went to search and found some jewelry and utensils... When I was about to leave, I was accidentally seen by Princess Huiji. Princess Huiji wanted those things from Daxia, and asked him who the master was. He didn't say, just said yes Here. Princess Huiji said that he was just a sinner in the cold palace, and they were all...animals, so he asked his subordinates to snatch his things and throw them for them to play, Hukala was, was..." He paused, his face turned pale, and said Unable to go down, he had to skip and said: "After the group of guards had their fill, they saw that Hukara was still breathing...so they beat him with stones, alive...killed him..."

He Lou's complexion remained unchanged during the night, but the surrounding temperature dropped slightly.

Before He Lou Chengye could speak, Mu Su turned around abruptly, took two steps down, stared at Dian Qi's corpse with his dark eyes, and asked, "Where is Princess Hui Ji?"

Everyone was stunned, a trace of surprise flashed across He Lou Chengye's eyes, then he went down the steps and grabbed him and said, "I'll deal with things here alone, don't interfere."

Musu flung his hand away abruptly, his eyes were red and he said, "The paint is dying for me, I can't just stand by and watch."

He Lou Chengye looked at him indifferently and said: "Do you think that you are a fool and can't tell right from wrong; or do you think that you are so hot now that you can cover the sky with one hand?"

Musu felt depressed, and was even more ashamed and angry when he heard this, and said angrily: "She is the Princess, and His Royal Highness's younger sister! I am Lang Yue's prisoner, and I am just a servant! When does Your Highness care about the life and death of a servant?" ?! I may be nothing, but Dianqi is also raised by his father and mother. He suffered such an ending. If no one is willing to stand up for him, even if he does not complain or be angry, I will never sleep or eat at peace!"

He Lou Chengye frowned, looking at the always quiet person in front of him like a cat with an arched back, his eyes were red, his pure white robe fluttered in the wind, outlining his thin body.His eyes were bottomless, and he said in a low voice: "Anyone can stand up for him, but you can't! If you are discovered now, and the truth comes out, it will not be a lacquer who died! Daxia and Langyue's None of the people on the frontier or the soldiers in the army can think about peace!"

Looking at the amber eyes of the man in front of him, Mu Su felt extremely ridiculous: "Oh, how could He Lou Shanyu say such a thing? Who gave all this? If His Highness is willing to let me go back to the country or Just kill me with a knife, and nothing will happen. No one will avenge Dianqi, the soldiers and the people will not be ashamed, and all the fakes will become real!"

He Lou Chengye squinted his eyes, looked at him and said, "You think Gu is too kind to you."

Musu's dark eyes were full of indifference: "I am a first-class prisoner. Your Highness, please be sensible after this. Don't lower your status to talk or discuss with me. It's as if we are equal."

He Lou Chengye stared at the pale and almost impersonal person in front of him, and felt a little strange for the first time.He has always been very accurate in seeing people, but he failed to see Musu's temperament.He thought he was a frail scholar, a civil servant who criticized in words and writing, but now it seemed that he had underestimated him from the beginning.

He Lou Cheng Ye raised his jaw, looked at Mu Su indifferently and said, "It's not your turn to educate Gu." He turned his head and looked at the guards beside him and said angrily, "What are you doing! Take him back to me Have you forgotten Gu’s words?”

The guards around him were originally stunned by the conflict between the two, but at this moment they were woken up by He Lou Chengye's roar, and they came up one after another to take Musu back.

Mu Suhong stared at the paint on the ground, looked indifferently at the guards around him and said, "Don't touch me." Because the guards knew Mu Su well and didn't want to offend him, they were in a dilemma for a while.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes for a long time, then slowly opened them, the black pupils were out of focus.Mu Su didn't look at He Lou Cheng Ye, but he was talking to He Lou Cheng Ye.

"Your Highness, Musu is willing to stay in Langyue dutifully and accept the fact of house arrest. Unless Da Xia asks me to go back, I will not escape. But I hope His Highness can agree to three conditions."

For the first time, He Lou Chengye's expression showed solemnity and bewilderment, although these emotions were buried deep in his eyes and no one saw them.He rubbed his fingers and said lightly, "Say it."

"First, I implore His Highness to give Dian Qi an explanation and bury him."

"can."

"Second, I want to be able to have freedom of movement."

He Lou Chengye hesitated for a moment and said: "Yes, but except where Gu allows, you must change your appearance."

Musu glanced at him, accepted it by default, took a deep breath and said, "Please return my jade marrow, Your Highness."

He Lou Chengye seemed to have expected this condition from him a long time ago, he didn't agree or deny it, he just turned his head and looked at the guard beside him: "Send Mr. Yan Luan back."

After speaking, he took the rein of the horse from one side, turned on the horse, his black hair fluttered in the air, and he was suave but did not smile.He Lou Chengye said calmly: "Three days later, someone will come to pick you up to Beiyuan, and the things for Yirong will be delivered at night, so don't go out until then."

He rode his horse and turned around, paused and said: "If you come, you will be safe. If you can't treat yourself well, you will be regarded as a breach of contract."

Immediately, he lowered his head and whispered a few words to the guards who came with him, and rode away without looking at Musu again from the beginning to the end.

Musu lowered his head, closed his eyes and sighed, feeling a little tired suddenly.

He said indifferently: "Put away the lacquered corpse, clean the place, and then pick the best small pine tree... He is from Langyue, he should be buried according to Langyue's custom, and a pine will be erected on the grave." The guards They all took orders to leave.

Mu Su called out again: "Yuan Ji." A tall, burly and honest-looking Lang Yue guard walked up to Mu Su: "Sir."

"You can help me buy some ink treasures, come on, be careful and come back directly."

Yuan Ji nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir. Do you need anything else? Yuan Ji will bring them back together."

Musu looked up at the sky for the first time after he walked out the door, it was gray and a bit cold.

He retracted his hands, and suddenly felt a little sore in his nose and eye sockets.

a long time.

"No need for anything."

That night, He Lou Chengye's bodyguards brought something to change his face, which was a thin dough.Mu Su gently applied him to his face, although there was still his shadow in his eyebrows, but even Yue Changfeng couldn't recognize that it was Mu Su.Although Musu's face wasn't ugly, it wasn't outstanding either. If he was thrown into a crowd, he wouldn't be able to tell just by his appearance.Xie Yan once teased him, if you want to recognize Musu among a thousand people, you have to look at who will slightly bend down and lower their hands, or slightly tilt their head and lower their eyes when they meet someone's gaze.To recognize Musu is not to recognize the face, but to recognize the temperament.

And after wearing this face, Mu Su instantly felt that his eyes were much deeper, his eyebrows and nose bridge were slightly raised, and he had the face of Lang Yue, with a slightly darker complexion, raised cheekbones, and lips. Thickening, he is a Langyue man just like him.He put away the mask, looked at the pale and gentle face in the mirror that had returned to its original appearance, with a wry smile on the corner of his lips.

Shutan woke up before Huaping, she brought hot tea for Musu, she sat beside Musu with a pale complexion, and said worriedly: "Sir."

Musu turned to look at her, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter? If you're still not feeling well, go back and rest. It's okay with me, I'll go to bed by myself after a while."

Shutan shook his head, knelt down beside Musu, lowered his head, and said in a trembling voice, "No, it's not. It's...a matter of painting."

Musu's eyes also dimmed, he hummed, and said, "It's my fault."

Shutan quickly raised his head, and said anxiously: "Sir, don't blame yourself! It's not the fault of Mr. Princess Huiji and Princess Yueji are completely different... She was so domineering in the past, and her subordinates were even more so. Huaping's relatives My sister died at their hands, and now Dianqi is..." She paused, then breathed out and said, "Sir, please don't tell Huaping about Dianqi's death."

Musu was taken aback for a moment, showing a puzzled look.

Shutan's hands trembled a little, and he bowed his head and said, "Let's not say that she and those people had a grudge against her sister, and... Huaping and Dianqi have liked each other for a long time." Before she could finish speaking, tears started pattering. It fell down with a clatter.

There was a bang in Musu's mind, and he unconsciously looked at the place where Huaping slept, a sour feeling welled up in his eyes and nose.He heard Shutan sobbing in front of his eyes, but he didn't know how to comfort her.

"Shu Tan." Mu Su called out.

Shu Tan responded in a low voice.

"What about your relatives?"

Shutan looked up at Musu, his long eyelashes were clotted with many tears.She bowed and said, "My family members were killed by Sand Bandits. I was saved by Princess Yueji and Concubine Toffee when I was escaping."

"Sand bandits... are they Xia people?"

Shutan nodded, and suddenly said: "But I won't hate all Xia people for this reason, sir, don't misunderstand! My father... was originally forced to make a living, and planned to sell me and my sister to a brothel. "

Musu stretched out his hand to touch Shutan's black hair, watched her imitate Xia Ren's bun and said: "You should hate Xia Ren, you are from Langyue, this is also reasonable, I won't even I can't tell right from wrong. Thank you for your hard work."

Shutan's face was slightly red, and he reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. He shook his head and said, "It's not hard. If I had known that I would meet Mr., it would be twice as hard, and Shutan would be able to survive it." She paused Suddenly, he said: "Sir, if one day you want to go back to Daxia, can you bring Shutan with you?"

Mu Su was slightly taken aback.

Shutan bowed his head: "If there is no husband here, I don't know what my fate will be... I would rather go back to Daxia with my husband! I will definitely not cause trouble for my husband!"

Mu Su smiled and said: "What are you talking about? I should be the one who caused you trouble. If there is such a day, I will definitely take you away." After he finished speaking, he didn't notice Shutan's expression, and his eyes suddenly dimmed again.

If there really was a day when things changed and people changed, and the sea changed, the big summer he went back to would still be the big summer in his dream?
