The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 2
[2. Chapter 2 One Year in Mufu]
Qingzhou, Zhizhou Mufu in
early spring, the warm sun shines through the cascading branches and leaves on the goose-yellow light gauze pleated skirt. The crimson embroidery was softly covered on her knees, and the yard was filled with the scent of green grass, Mu Xiyao narrowed her eyes comfortably. Lying on the side on a soft couch, with one hand supporting the elbow, there is a big maid, Cymbidium, waiting to peel the fragrant fruit. The pulp is slightly sweet, tender and juicy, very delicious.
It has been two days since Mu Xiyao “recovered”. Based on the memory of the past two days, Xiyao was easily familiar with the habits of her original body, and she still disliked that she was not coquettish enough, not pretty enough, or attractive enough. Deliberately, the sick Xiyao is more clingy and loving.
Yu’s distressed daughter was weak after typhoid fever, and she carefully instructed the two maids beside the second lady to serve her well. On weekdays, Nvhong also took a half-month break from her homework, and avoided greetings in the early morning, allowing her to take good care of her. The breakfast is autobiographically used in the courtyard, and it is only necessary to go to the main courtyard at noon and evening for dinner.
Mu Xiyao’s eldest sister, Mu Xicheng, had a marriage contract with Liang Youzhao, the first son of Liang Bowen, who was sacrificed to the wine at Guozijian. Therefore, I don’t often go to Mu Xiyao’s Yingshuixuan.
The eldest brother, Mu Jinzhi, has been fond of martial arts since he was three years old. No matter how his father Mu Jingzhen reprimanded the whipping, he had no intention of taking the imperial examinations, and only devoted himself to joining the army, hoping to make achievements in the field and repay the kindness of his parents, Yu Yin clan. When he was twelve years old, he left home to join the army. Now that five years have passed, he has become a seventh-rank deputy lieutenant. You are away all year round, and you can only rush home during the New Year’s holiday to have a family reunion.
When Mu Jinzhi left home, Xiyao was young, but she was well-behaved and obedient. She was short, small, and chubby like a ball. She was white and tender, staring at you with big eyes. The top refused to come down. Often followed behind her elder brother’s “brother, elder brother”, the soft childish voice made Mu Jinzhi feel numb in his heart, and the watery and reliant eyes made Mu Jinzhi pamper her very much.
Every time I return home, there must be a big box of fun and lovable things, which are specially bought for Mu Xiyao. So far, it is still beautiful clothes, fragrant powder and glaze, kite dolls, and every birthday will be delivered early, and it has never been forgotten.
Mu Xiyao caressed the soft quilt on her knees, and looked at her leisurely and sloppy mind, but her mind didn’t stop for a moment. Two years from now, there will be an early general election, and then there will be no escape. She can’t play the trick of deceiving you. Although the ancients were not as good as the people of later generations, they were generally knowledgeable and broad-minded, but they were definitely not stupid. Despise these old antiques, and you will deserve to be unlucky at that time. What’s more, there are parents, brothers and sisters, the lives of the whole family can’t be because of her Mu Xiyao’s little mistake. Moreover, the remnant soul’s obsession is too deep, and it must be terminated earlier, so as not to affect the nature.
Lifting her feet to bed, the maid Mo Lan hurried over to tidy up her dress and hold the exquisite hairpin. Then he greeted the little girl in the courtyard to put on a parasol, handed over the fan, and a group of people walked towards the main courtyard.
A few feet away, the mama who was serving bowed and said, “Second miss, peace.” He opened the curtain again, and shouted to the inside: “Madam, the second miss is here to greet you.
” The woman sitting on the head, in her early thirties, with a dignified appearance and elegant clothes, was the birth mother of Xiyao. He was ordering to add the delicious fish soup, and urged her to put her favorite snacks, sweet mouths.
Mu Xiyao, a woman of her actual age, never knew what it meant to be tender and restrained. She greeted her with a coquettish smile, then twisted over and hugged Yu’s arm to act coquettishly, and asked embarrassedly, “Mother misses me? Xiyao misses her mother. This morning, I just read Mother’s walnut cakes here~.” The voice was greasy and sweet, so sweet that Yu’s mouth could not be closed. She was really gentle and loving and patted her little head. She was carefully asking if her body was still uncomfortable. The person who served was not attentive.
As soon as Mu Xicheng entered the door, he saw that the little girl was really sticking to her mother’s body to make things happen. Seriously greeted Yu with a salute, then walked over to laugh at her not being a lady from an aristocratic family, and floated a few white eyes over, meaning: you pretend, then pretend. Regarding Mu Xiyao’s obedient and sensible in front of her parents and elders, she excitedly followed Mu Jin’s house to unravel the riot, Mu Xicheng knew all too well that the wild monkeys from childhood to the big ones have always carried the blame for her.
Just as they were laughing and making a fuss, Aunt Wu led Mu Xiting in, greeted everyone respectfully, and said hello to everyone, then she consciously sat down and listened to the conversation between Yu and the two concubines. , and occasionally promised a few words to join in the fun.
Concubine Wu is not favored, but she rarely understands the sense of proportion and keeps her duty. Yu treated this prostitute kindly and never criticized her. The clothes and jewelry that the young lady had, the teaching mama, and the female red master were also given to Mu Xiting. Yu’s generosity of caring for his children and treating them equally is even more respected by Master Mu.
After eating, Aunt Wu took Mu Xiting back for a lunch break. At this moment, Mu Xiyao spoke up, first praising her that she had finally grown up as a governor, and made Yu’s family and sister-in-law laugh all over the place. He also took the opportunity to propose that in half a month, he would pick up the guqin calligraphy and painting, needlework and cooking that he had learned before.
Yu was quite surprised to hear from this little monkey who could not calm down today that he was going to practice calligraphy and piano, as well as Nvhong’s cooking skills. Mu Xiyao raised her chin, smugly, and waved her hand: “Yesterday I read a story, and the peerless beauties in it all look like this. How could I be wrong?
” Cheng covered his mouth and smiled. The Yu family naturally spoiled the young girl, and immediately agreed, just telling her not to play again, as if she had no stamina. In the evening, when I mentioned the interesting story of this little girl to Master Mu, Master Mu stroked his beard, and his eyes were full of smiles.
Half a month later, Xiyao studied calligraphy and painting in the morning, after taking a nap, Nvhong was cooking, and in the evening, she was tirelessly sculpting the piano. I think she also came from a scholarly family in modern times, and was taught by her grandparents. Thanks to the foundation of good education, as long as you understand the differences between ancient and modern times, everything will go smoothly.
The troublesome thing is that Mu Xiyao has no talent for female celebrity, let alone any foundation. Seeing that he is not as good as the original owner, he can only pass by. After all, the predecessor had practiced, and this only child baby girl had never touched a needle since she was a child.
The days passed in hilarity for more than a month. That day, Mu Xiyao was still taking a nap, and she was in the middle of a good dream, but was woken up by a sudden voice in her head. Still in a daze, before regaining consciousness, only to find that the jade pendant was causing trouble again.
Well, Mu Xiyao really doesn’t like seeing this jade pendant. When looking for it, people pretend to be dead; Not to give her a headache, but to disturb her dreams.
“What are you yelling for?” The woman got up and got angry and lost her temper first.
But Yu Pei is also wronged! What’s the matter! The original owner didn’t keep it, and he even met a Yaksha! So embarrassed to recognize the Lord, not to mention the shame, not welcome. After finally taking a breath, I had to tell you something important, and after calling a few times, I was scolded. It’s really sad. Thinking of something important, I had to swallow my anger.
Some people are more anxious than it is. The woman shouted fiercely, “Let’s not talk about the fact that you’re causing me a headache. Hurry up and send me back!”
“If you don’t have spiritual power, you can’t go back…”
“When will it recover?”
“And then It’s gone. Do you think it’s that easy to tear apart time and space once?”
Mu Xiyao’s face was bad. I meditated. The tone calmed down: “There are still monks here?”
“You know the monks too? But that’s an ancient thing. Now the spiritual energy is thin, and there is no Taoism. I am just a tool spirit, and the body is the protection spirit given to the tribe by the ancient monks. Jade. A superb spiritual weapon.”
Mu Xiyao felt that she saw the jade pendant curling up the dog’s tail.
“Then what’s the use of you?”
It wasn’t an illusion, Mu Xiyao felt that Qi Ling actually understood emotions, and sighed.
“It’s not very useful now. It is only worn close to the body, it can avoid all poisons in the mortal world and is not harmed. The jade pendant in the previous life has been shattered and no longer exists. In this life, because I forcibly entered, it was severely damaged. Most of its functions will never be used. In addition, the self-contained space has also changed from a courtyard to the size of a cage. This is also the consequence that must be endured by reversing the time and space.”
Qi Ling’s tone was sad, and he couldn’t help but feel sad. But I heard the woman ask more hurt than it is, “The space is only the size of a box? I can’t get in? Where is the spiritual spring? Where is the fruit tree? Where is the spiritual beast?”
Qi Ling’s face stinks, this woman, you think too much. Even if the jade pendant is intact, it is only a spiritual tool, not a fairy tool. Ignoring the woman’s godly babble, he only explained to her: “Not only is the jade pendant damaged, but even I am about to dissipate. All the spiritual power sealed in the jade pendant has been exhausted, and the outside world is not what it used to be, so the spirit of the tool naturally cannot exist. I came here just to tell you something important and end the cause and effect.”
Mu Xiyao knew that the main event was coming, so she listened carefully and paid extra attention.
“The jade slips in space, you don’t have spiritual knowledge, so you can’t use them. There is only one health-preserving scripture, which is given by the master when he refines qi. It is especially useful for women’s appearance. It can be taken, there is nothing left in this book, only four kinds, one for each. If you lose the spirit of the tool and suffer heavy damage, the jade pendant will definitely be downgraded to the lowest level of magic. There will be a warning of danger, but it is powerless to protect the master. You have to be extra careful. Be careful.
Now you are Mu Xiyao. Since you can grab this opportunity, you should be a person with good luck. But you are in harmony with the remnant soul. All the cause and effect will be passed on to you. If the time is too long, it will affect the purity of your soul. This life must be settled clearly, otherwise you will grab the opportunity of others, but do nothing, and even your own soul will be defiled, and you will be trapped here after death. , can’t be reincarnated. Well, the time has come, so you can do it yourself.”
After speaking, Mu Xiyao disappeared completely without waiting for a reaction. The last artifact spirit left in the world in ancient times has finally come to an end.
Although Mu Xiyao hated that the Great God of Transmigration was too ruthless and never came back, he also knew that things couldn’t be done, and thinking too much was useless. I tried to take out the Health Sutra, and when I saw that I could still understand it, I put it aside and continued to distinguish all kinds of medicinal herbs. Yang Yan Dan… Zhu Yan Dan… Holy Spirit Dan (sacred medicine for detoxification)… Fragrance pill… Well, very good. Mu Xiyao was satisfied.
So, for the next year, Mu Xiyao followed the steps and lived a life in the boudoir. Only the Holy Spirit Pill was left, and the rest of the pills were taken.
My daughter has been through the family for a year, her face has grown open, she has practiced the health-preserving scriptures, and her body has been drawn, and she has a slim figure. The gradual warming and nourishing of the medicinal pills made the original only a beautiful woman, and her charm gradually became mature. Although she did not have the appearance of a city, she could be regarded as a jasper and beautiful, and it was loved by people.
Mu Xiyao knew that there were too many secrets, shocking the world, and never mentioned it to others. She is the only one who knows all the secrets in this life.
There are no extra pills, and the whole book of health preservation has even more effect on women, so only the first half is excerpted for the purpose of strengthening the body of Mu Da and Mu Jin. It’s just that I found it by accident when I was digging out the book at the book stand. He also coaxed Yu in private, and forcibly stuffed the second half of the beauty-preserving chapter into Yu’s hands, persuading him to practice together with Mu Xicheng, just for entertainment.
