MTL - Let Me Pursue You-Chapter 26 026

In fact, Yuan Cixian's anger has long since dissipated. For Lu Shiqing, she didn't expect him to humbly apologize. It was rare for him to turn a corner and ask Lu Shuangyu to come to express condolences, not to mention that what happened that day was her fault in the final analysis, so she left him alone these days, not because she really didn't want to talk to him, but because she used a "tactic".

Just like at this moment, when she saw his angry eyes, she didn't give him a good look. Stretching out her jade finger, she twirled the emerald green porcelain bottle in a circle, making sure that it caught his eyes, and then slowly retracted it into her sleeve.

Lu Shiqing sneered at "childish" in his heart, straightened his clothes, looked forward, with an arrogant expression.

Yuan Cixian also turned her head, secretly lowering her eyes to think about Zheng Zhuo's injury.

Just now when she took a closer look, she found that most of the incense ashes that the monk shook off by accident were scattered on his cuffs, but very slightly on the back of his hands. Such a little bit of redness is just like being bitten by a mosquito to Wuren. It seems unreasonable to say who did it deliberately.

She thought, maybe she paid too much attention to Zheng Zhuo, and she was like a snake. But after waiting for a while, when she dispelled her doubts and went to pick up the fine incense in the monk's hand, she felt something was wrong again.

The taste of this fine fragrance is different from the incense ash on Zheng Zhuo's body.

Her outstretched hand paused. The monk who handed her the incense was also taken aback, but saw her quickly smiled, as if nothing had happened, took the incense and went to worship the tripod, and then left the dojo.

Yuan Yu bowed to her first, and slowed down to wait for her after she came out. Seeing her following, he tilted his head and asked in a low voice: "What happened just now?" He noticed that she paused for a moment.

At this moment, there were so many people, Yuan Cixian shook his head to indicate that it was all right, and when he got near the Daxiong Palace where the next ceremony would be held, he lowered his voice and said, "Brother, smell this incense ash." He raised his sleeves as he spoke.

When the monk just made the ceremony, she took advantage of the monk's inattention and dusted off the fine incense, leaving a pinch of incense ash on her sleeve.

Yuan Yu lowered his head and sniffed, he didn't know why and said, "What's wrong?"

"The fine incense my brother got is the same as the smell of the incense ash on my sleeve and the one inside the sacrificial tripod."

He nodded.

"But the Sixth Prince is a little different."

Yuan Yu knew that her younger sister's five senses were always sensitive, but she still had doubts: "Such a subtle difference, can you smell it wrong?"

Yuan Cixian shook her head and said, "It's really different. It's mostly Buddha incense, but mixed with something else." She frowned and thought about it, "I seem to have smelled this smell somewhere in southern Yunnan."

While speaking, the brothers and sisters had already arrived at the Daxiong Palace, seeing that outside the palace were all the children of the royal family who had finished the sacrifice and stopped to rest, so it was difficult to say more.

Yuan Cixian glanced over, but did not find Zheng Zhuo, but instead saw Zheng Yun kneeling alone on the futon in the hall, clasping his hands together to worship the Buddha, looking very devout from the back. Most of the royal children present came here because of the sacred order, but she seemed to be sincerely devoted to the Buddha.

She looked at Zheng Yun for a while, and suddenly understood why she didn't think this noble lord was like a person who likes to go out on horseback.

This person's gestures and gestures reveal a very heavy charm, her voice is calm, her eyes are dull, if there is a description - she is very similar to a person who has left the world and paid homage to the Buddha.

There didn't seem to be many things in the world that could cheer her up. Of course, maybe except Lu Shiqing.

Yuan Cixian felt that all Zheng Yun's attention to her came from Lu Shiqing.

After Zheng Yun finished her worship, she turned around and saw her standing at the entrance of the hall. She came forward with a smile, greeted Yuan Yu first, and then asked her: "The county lord is also here to pay respects to the Buddha?"

Yuan Cixian glanced at the shining golden statue of Sakyamuni in the hall, shook his head and said, "No, I don't believe in Buddhism." After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that this remark was inappropriate, and added with a smile, "I don't really believe in Buddhism."

Zheng Yun blinked lightly: "So, the county lord can trust reincarnation?"

She seemed to think about it seriously, and finally asked without answering: "What about your lord, do you think there is reincarnation in this world?"

"There are all kinds of things in the world. If you believe in them, you will have them. If you don't believe them, you won't have them." Zheng Yun smiled slightly, "I believe in cause and effect, and I also believe in reincarnation."

After she finished speaking, she said goodbye to Yuan Cixian, and went to get a bag and drink water from the maid who was waiting by the side.

Yuan Yu gave a "tsk" when she saw this, and sighed softly: "Your girl's family is really like a poisonous snake and a beast. This one word can have eight meanings. It makes my spine chill."

Yuan Cixian glanced at him, and was about to reply, but she didn't know what she thought of because of these words, and her face changed.

"What's wrong? It's scary." Yuan Yu asked.

"Brother, I remember." She pulled off his sleeves, pulled him away, and said, "You know, there are all kinds of poisonous snakes in southern Yunnan. I just went to Yaozhou. I was especially afraid of this thing. Father found a kind of herb specially designed to lure snakes, and wiped out all the snakes near our mansion."

Yuan Yu turned his head and asked: "You mean, the sixth prince has the smell of this medicinal herb?"

Yuan Cixian nodded solemnly.

Yuan Yu figured out the link in an instant, and asked, "Then we?"

She twisted her face, hesitated for a while and said: "...It's not good to just let him talk, after all, right now, he hasn't done anything wrong to the Yuan family, we are still in the same boat."

Yuan Yu nodded: "Brother, go find him."

She stopped him: "Don't. Your identity is more sensitive than mine. Don't deal with him in front of others. I'll go."

Yuan Cixian looked around, asked a monk to ask, and learned that Zheng Zhuo seemed to be called to the South Temple Gate of Wangji Temple by someone.

After she thanked her, she hurried over there, and when she arrived, she saw Zheng Zhuo was talking to several guards, holding a piece of sheepskin drawing in her hand, as if discussing something, when she saw her coming, she paused for a while, with suspicious eyes.

The gate of the South Temple is connected to the outer wall, and under the wall is a row of thick undergrowth, which looks like a good place to hide snakes. Yuan Cixian glanced at his feet in fear, and hurried forward: "Your Highness, Can I take a step to speak?"

Zheng Zhuo nodded, and handed the sheepskin blueprints in his hand to the guards. He was about to follow her when he heard the rustling of the bushes at his feet. In an instant, a thin snake with silver stripes leaped half a foot high, straight to the ground. Attacked on his wrist.

He suddenly raised his eyes, pulled Yuan Cixian to hide behind him with one hand, and pulled out the waist knife of the guard at the side with the other. With a slap of the horizontal sword, the hilt of the sword fell over his palm, and the blade fell down, directly cutting the heart seven inches from the snake's body. pulse. After a few ups and downs, it took only two breaths back and forth, so fast that the guards on the side didn't even have time to move.

Yuan Cixian's face was pale, looking at the limp, **** red snake, she was so frightened that she forgot to scream, and gasped for breath.

God knows, Yuan Cixian, who is not afraid of dogs, is really disgusted with snakes, even when she was a child, she was fainted by this thing.

She didn't expect to confront the snake head-on, so she rushed to remind Zheng Zhuo, but she was a step late and bumped into the mouth of the snake. If I knew it earlier, my elder brother would come forward.

Zheng Zhuo was still holding her hand, so she felt that her palm was wet and cold, full of fine sweat. He looked back at her: "Are you okay?"

Yuan Cixian was not well, she even had stars in front of her eyes, she was slightly dizzy, she bit her tongue, felt a little fishy sweet, and managed to hold on, she pulled her hand out after recovering, and shook her head: "I'm fine .” Then he reminded, “Your Highness, you killed…”

Zheng Zhuo said "Yes": "I know."

Seeing his calm expression and no surprises in his eyes, Yuan Cixian was a little puzzled, frowned and was about to ask again, but accidentally glanced, but saw a person standing in front of the temple gate.

Lu Shiqing stayed where he was with his hands behind his back, and he didn't know how long he looked here.

Zheng Zhuo glanced at him from a distance, and asked Yuan Cixian, "Why did the county lord seek me just now?"

There were several guards who didn't know friends or foes, she couldn't speak out, she looked down at the cobra corpse, and hinted: "It's all right."

Zheng Zhuo understood her reason for coming, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid I have to apologize to Father." Then he threw his sword and waved to Lu Shiqing, signaling him to come.

Lu Shiqing's expression was very calm. When he came to him, he bowed his head and saluted him, and listened to him: "Lu Shilang came just in time, the county master was frightened, please send her back to the palace."

Seeing him nodding in response, Zheng Zhuo strode away. A few guards followed closely behind.

Lu Shiqing glanced at Yuan Cixian, who was frozen in place, and stretched out his hand: "The county lord, please."

She nodded, not wanting to show timidity, but unexpectedly, she had been holding on for too long, and when she moved her legs, she felt weak, and she staggered and almost fell.

Lu Shiqing subconsciously stretched out his hand to help, and when she grabbed her arm tightly, he remembered that she was good at making up and acting, and asked coldly: "Didn't the county lord just tell His Highness, are you okay?"

Yuan Cixian really didn't pretend this time. Mostly because she didn't have any hostility towards Lu Shiqing, she relaxed a little in front of him, and the aftertaste of being disgusted by the snake came to her head, her ears neighed for a while, and her eyes turned black a little bit, her stomach was churning and she was about to gag, and she couldn't hear him clearly at all. What did you say.

The hand that was holding his arm dropped a little bit, and she tilted her body and fell backwards.

Lu Shiqing was stunned for a moment, but now he didn't dare to doubt anymore, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her, seeing that she was fainting, he could only hug her horizontally, moved her aside, pinched her in the middle of the crowd, and called her in a low voice: "Yuan Ci Xian!"

After all, Yuan Cixian's physique was not delicate, she woke up after being pinched by him a few times, and found that her head was resting on his legs, and he was leaning against the base of the wall, as if rubbing dust all over her body.

But she couldn't take care of his cleanliness at this time, she only felt that after fainting, her mouth and tongue were extremely dry, she raised her eyes and opened her mouth, and said weakly: "Lu Shilang, I'm thirsty..."

If he can recognize Lu Shilang, then he will be fine.

Lu Shiqing glanced at her, took off the water bag from his waist, twisted the cap of the bag for her, but suddenly paused, reminding: "I've already drank this water bag."

Didn't she dislike the things he touched?

Yuan Cixian was dripping with cold sweat just now, and her mouth was really dry. She snatched the water bag and poured it into her mouth on her back. After drinking enough, she was able to continue talking: "...you really hold a grudge, I took back the day I think your words are done." After speaking, he put his elbows on the ground and wanted to get up from his lap.

Seeing that she was struggling to move, Lu Shiqing helped her, and then said coldly, "When? I don't remember."

She glanced at him, and hummed softly: "I don't remember pulling him down." She seemed to have regained some vigor after it was over, and shuffled towards the gate of the temple.

Lu Shiqing frowned, glanced uncomfortably at the plaster at the corner of his clothes, sighed, put the water bag back on his waist, and followed.
