Chapter 44
The person in front of him had a gentle face, and he was serving himself dishes with chopsticks in his right hand. The meat and vegetables were well matched, which made Mo Yunxuan's heart softer and more silent.
"Your Highness, let's eat." Cheng Xiuyuan put down his chopsticks, raised his head, and met Mo Yunxuan's gaze. The bottomless eyes made Cheng Xiuyuan's originally peaceful expression appear uneasy.
"Hmm." Mo Yunxuan lowered his head and picked up the vegetables in the bowl as if he didn't see them, put them in his mouth and chewed slowly.
Cheng Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the red wine on the side and took a sip.
The warmth in the room emerged unknowingly, and when Cheng Xiuyuan bowed his head to eat, the light surrounded his hair with a halo.
Mo Yunxuan swallowed the meat in his mouth: "But it really doesn't taste good."
Cheng Xiuyuan choked, took a sip of porridge and almost stuck his throat.He hurriedly turned his head, swallowed away from the food and coughed a few times.
Mo Yunxuan quickly took out a tissue and stuffed it for him, stood up worriedly, and patted his back: "How is it?"
Cheng Xiuyuan coughed so that his eyes were moist, as if tears would come out in a blink of an eye, Mo Yunxuan's eyes were red, and there was a kind of longing that was about to move.
"Cough...it's okay...I'm fine, Your Highness." Cheng Xiuyuan gradually calmed down.
Mo Yunxuan was a little unwilling, but could only sit back.
Cheng Xiuyuan's face became extraordinarily rosy due to coughing, and he drank some red wine before he said, "Does Your Highness really care about this?"
Mo Yunxuan looked at him, frowning slightly: "I just don't understand."
Cheng Xiuyuan recalled it for a while, that cake...it was really unsightly, the taste was not good, and it was even more uncomfortable to eat, but...
The corners of Cheng Xiuyuan's lips could not help but twitch, his eyes may have been covered with water, bright and bright: "But, it was the first time someone made it for me, and that person was His Highness. His highness is so noble, but he condescends to make cakes for me, how can I not eat them."
Mo Yunxuan didn't speak, just looked at him, his ears couldn't help but feel a little hot.
"Your Highness, in fact, since I met you, you have always looked cold, serious, and stern, but later I found out that Your Highness is a very gentle person." Perhaps the warmth of tonight infected Cheng Xiuyuan, He actually continued to talk about his own views on Mo Yunxuan.
Although they really didn't get along for four years, he really felt the kindness Mo Yunxuan treated him, and took it seriously in his heart.
This is also the true portrayal of Mo Yunxuan in his heart. If there is no accident, he thinks, he will protect his master for the rest of his life.
Mo Yunxuan didn't expect that he had such an image in Cheng Xiuyuan's heart, which made him flattered, a warm current filled his heart, looking at the person opposite, he felt an urge to kiss him.
Yes, he wanted to kiss him.Like a lover.
After Cheng Xiuyuan finished speaking, he felt a little restless. As a housekeeper, he should know the rules. As a 'servant', he shouldn't talk about the quality of his master, but he is still in front of His Highness...
When it was over, His Highness stopped talking.
Cheng Xiuyuan's originally relaxed body became stiffer, and he said cautiously: "Your Highness, don't be angry, I and I were wrong, I shouldn't talk about you casually."
Mo Yunxuan was still silent and didn't speak, just looked at him with inexplicably hot eyes.
Cheng Xiuyuan thought to himself, could it be that he had a stomachache and didn't take good care of him before he got angry?Thinking of this, Cheng Xiuyuan hastily explained: "Your Highness, I am really negligent in not being able to take good care of you because I am not feeling well. I hope, I hope you will not be angry."
The sound became more and more emboldened as it got further behind.
As soon as these words came out, Mo Yunxuan's blood was poured out with cold water. What does this mean?
Praise him for a while, and be so cautious for a while, is he so scary? !
Mo Yunxuan glared at Cheng Xiuyuan with a gloomy and cold face, his thin lips tightened.Cheng Xiuyuan couldn't help but dodge his gaze.
Mo Yunxuan tried his best to suppress his temper, not wanting to destroy his image in Cheng Xiuyuan's heart, so he stood up and strode out of the room.
When he passed by the servant at the door, he took another step back and pretended to look forward: "Mo Xin, let the people in the kitchen prepare some nutritious light dishes suitable for the housekeeper these few days. Be sure to let him Take care of yourself."
This is as if a master's wife is happy, and the master asks someone to prepare food for his wife so that she can take care of her body.After hearing this, Mo Xin nodded respectfully, but his heart began to make up his mind.
In the room, Cheng Xiuyuan was about to follow out, when he heard these words, he couldn't help feeling sweet, and a throbbing lingered in his heart.
At night when the servants were all asleep, Mo Yunxuan broke into Cheng Xiuyuan's room suddenly. Cheng Xiuyuan had already taken the medicine and fell asleep early. Tucked the corner of the quilt, and then walked out softly.
When he came to the bedroom, he turned around and went to the study.Mo Yunxuan's study room has a huge bookshelf made of sandalwood, and various ecological orchids are carved on it. The posture is elegant and purely hand-carved, and none of them are drawn with a brush.
A large number of books were neatly arranged by the servants. In front of the bookshelf was a desk with a complete set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones. In addition, there was a small round transparent fish tank with a black fish inside. And red fish are swimming freely.
Mo Yunxuan lifted the fish tank, put it aside, and then spread his left hand flat on the place where the fish tank was just now. With a little force, an infrared ray swept across the back of his hand.The side that was pressed sank, Mo Yunxuan let go, and a rectangular hole appeared in the corner of the desk.
Mo Yunxuan reached in and took out the things.The hole quickly closes on its own.
Mo Yunxuan sat on the chair and spread out the things.
This is a book I borrowed from the library, and it's about the Shengxi people.
He had already read it before, and felt that there was nothing to focus on.Or maybe there was something else that he hadn't found.
Mo Yunxuan flipped through the book, the contents of the book were similar to those he had read the previous few times, which made him slightly distracted after reading it again.
Was Cheng Xiuyuan what he thought?
What if it is...?
Sign a contract with him?
How to sign?Could it be a ritual of bloodletting?Thinking of Cheng Xiuyuan being tied up for bloodletting, Mo Yunxuan couldn't help but feel heartbroken and uncomfortable!
Knowing the existence and value of the Sheng Xi tribe, Mo Yunxuan can be said to be bound to win this person, and he has a huge ambition.For so many years, I have never given up exploring.
But if this person is him...
As soon as Mo Yunxuan thought that Cheng Xiuyuan was related to the Shengxi tribe or he was a member of the Shengxi tribe, he wished to read all the books about the Shengxi tribe, especially how the Shengxi tribe signed the contract. It is best for Cheng Xiuyuan.
In the early morning of the next day, Mo Yunxuan propped his chin and closed his eyes to fall asleep, when suddenly the door of the study was knocked lightly.
"What's the matter?" Mo Yunxuan pressed his temple with the pulp of his index finger.
"Your Highness, the Marshal and Miss Pei are here."
Mo Yunxuan frowned: "Did they say what they are doing here?"
"The Marshal said it was for the Shengxi people."
"Oh?" Mo Yunxuan paused, and then said: "Treat me well."
"Yes."
After the servant left, Mo Yunxuan put away the books he read last night, then went back to his room to change and wash.
It was more than ten minutes before he came to the reception hall.
Pei Shangzheng was sitting at the side well-dressed. In contrast, Pei Hu was dressed more youthfully, and she was carrying a very popular small schoolbag on her back.
Pei Hu didn't have that much patience. After waiting for so long, she snorted coldly when she saw Mo Yunxuan: "Prince really makes people wait."
Mo Yunxuan glanced over coldly: "Sister of the marshal, can't you wait for this?"
Pei Shang who was dragged into the water: "..."
Pei Hu snorted again and stood up: "Brother, I'm going outside for a stroll."
Pei Shang looked at Mo Yunxuan, and Mo Yunxuan said calmly: "Go."
After Pei Hu left, Mo Yunxuan took the chair and took a sip of the freshly brewed tea: "What did the marshal want to ask me for?"
"I don't know if Your Highness has heard the news..." Pei Shang looked at Mo Yunxuan firmly, "It has been rumored for the past few days that a wealthy businessman spent a lot of money to make a weapon that can make Sheng Xi The clansmen showed their true colors, then tortured the Shengxi clansmen to the brink of death, and then subdued them, let them be arrested obediently."
A face floated in Mo Yunxuan's mind: "Ji Houchen?"
Pei Shang nodded meaningfully.
Mo Yunxuan took the initiative to bring the scene of Cheng Xiuyuan being injured by this mysterious weapon in his mind, and his face froze: "What you said is true?"
"Really." Pei Shang looked serious.
"Then what you told me means..." Mo Yunxuan looked at him suspiciously, with vigilance hidden in his eyes.
Pei Shang's lips twitched: "Your Highness don't need to look at me so vigilantly. I told Your Highness this because I think His Highness should have the same thoughts as me. The arrest of the Shengxi people is not to hurt them."
Mo Yunxuan's face softened a little when he heard the words: "Then what do you want to do?"
"Join us."
No matter what the people inside are like, when Pei Hu was wandering blindly in the palace alone, she still found that the place where the prince lived was really magnificent, and the servants would see it every once in a while, so Pei Hu Don't worry about getting lost.
As she walked, she saw a man squatting among the flowers in front of her, wearing a housekeeper's uniform. Most importantly, that man's temperament was very familiar.
Pei Hu's mouth had already shouted out one step ahead of her brain: "Brother Xiu Yuan!"
Turning around, Cheng Xiuyuan saw a bright smile, and couldn't help smiling warmly: "Miss Pei."
Pei Hu wrinkled her nose when she heard it: "You have to call me Pei Hu."
"Okay... Pei Hu." Cheng Xiu Yuan responded without temper.
"By the way, what are you doing here?" Pei Hu looked at the place where Xiu Yuan had just squatted, there was a clump of flowers, this kind of flower was pale pink, and Pei Hu had seen many at Pei Shang's house.
"It's nothing, just take a look." Cheng Xiuyuan smiled gently, his fair skin was brighter under the warm sunshine.
"The flowers are not beautiful, what's there to see..." Pei Hu scratched her head, and when she thought of Mo Yunxuan's indifferent face, she suddenly became angrily: "Could it be Mo Yunxuan who asked you to trim the flowers here?!"
