Lock Xin

The stone table top was extremely smooth, reflecting the sun's rays a little bit dazzlingly.A figure walked in the corridor, the light green clothes matched the green branches and leaves naturally, and the thin shirt fluttered slightly with his steps.

Wang Mo walked down the steps, lost the cover of the pavilion, the sun fell on his face completely, he couldn't help narrowing his eyes slightly.Her delicate cheeks were as white as ceramics, her nose was small and straight, and her lips were faintly rosy.

A woman came from a distance, with a beautiful face and fair skin, her slightly curly long hair was slightly tied up and scattered on a light pink dress, and a ring of clear crystals was worn on her slender neck. She looked at Wang Mo from her side Walking by, there was no reaction at all, there was a trace of anger in the blue eyes, and he sternly reprimanded. "You stop."

Wang Mo stopped in his tracks. He saw the woman beside him wearing bright clothes and expensive accessories. He must be of high status. He lowered his head slightly, "What can you do?"

"Why are you so rude when you see me? Are people from the Central Plains so rude?" the woman raised her voice, and she glanced coldly at Wang Mo's lowered face.

"I didn't notice you just now." Wang Mo explained, he had never seen the woman in front of him, even if he saw it just now, he didn't know how to address her.

"I'm a living person standing in front of you, can't you still not see me?" The woman reprimanded, seeing Wang Mo's abnormally calm face without any trace of panic, she couldn't help but a trace of anger ignited in her heart, "Don't accept my order!" The discipline just said it bluntly, I hate others talking about me in a low voice."

"I didn't open my mouth to speak just now." Wang Mo said with some dissatisfaction, it was clear that the person in front of him was picking on him.

"You still talk back to me. Who do you think you are, the master of the palace? You're just a dog. How dare you talk to me like that." The woman pointed at Wang Mo's skirt, and she put her hand down forcefully. .

"I don't allow you to insult me." Wang Mo said loudly. He raised his hand to slap the woman, but he put it down slowly. If he vented his anger for a while, His Highness might be in trouble in the future.

"I didn't deliberately insult you. You are the one who doesn't abide by the rules in the Huns' palace." The woman looked at the hidden anger between Wang Mo's brows, with a hint of complacency on her face.

Wang Mo clenched his fists tightly, lowered his head and did not look at the person in front of him.Didn't she just want to blame him, she should leave when she gets bored by herself.

"Do you want to say that you just came to the Huns and don't know the rules of the palace, but you have been here for many days, no matter how stupid you are, you should learn it." The woman walked around Wang Mo with her shoulders in her arms.

"If I don't punish you today, maybe you will never have a long memory, but I think you are a first-time offender, so I will give you a lighter punishment." The woman waved her hand to signal the people beside her to go down and get things.

Wang Mo shook off his sleeves vigorously. He did nothing wrong, so why should he bear her punishment, but because he was afraid of causing trouble to His Highness, he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and stood where he was.

The woman pulled the clothes around Wang Mo's shoulders and walked into the sun. She reached out and took the wine jar from the attendant's hand, "Stand this jar on your head for an hour. If you break the jar halfway, I will definitely I will not spare you lightly."

"Is this how the Huns punish their subordinates?" Wang Mo looked at the mocking smile on the woman's face, she clearly did it on purpose, but Wang Mo didn't know how he offended her.

"If you want the lord to personally punish you, it's fine," the woman said slowly.

Wang Mo snorted, the wine jar under his hand was not light, he lifted it vigorously to his head, he was worried that the wine jar would fall down, and the people in front of him would take advantage of the opportunity, so he didn't dare to move his hands.

"Take your hands away and keep your eyes open." The woman threw the whip in her hand on the stone bench with an unusually loud voice.

Wang Mo slowly put down his hands and tried his best to balance his shaking body. He opened his eyes to face the sun, his face was burning hot.

Seeing the figure standing still in the corridor, Wang Mo turned his body slightly to avoid the man's gaze, but he didn't want to touch the wine jar above his head. He panicked and raised his arms to support himself.

The longer the time, the heavier the head became. Wang Mo bit his lower lip hard, comforting himself in his heart, most of the time has passed, as long as he persists for a while, it will be fine.

Wang Mo looked at the people in the distance who were still looking at him, and couldn't help but feel a little angry. Didn't Gai Xiong see the people who punished the palace, or he looks like a juggler now, which is ridiculous.

"General Gai." The woman bowed her head quickly when she saw the person walking in front of her.

"Are you punishing the palace servants?" Gai Xiong looked at Wang Mo's pain and forbearance, and raised his hand to caress the wine jar on his head.

Wang Mo glared at Gai Xiong viciously, Gai Xiong smiled, and withdrew his outstretched hand.

"He didn't abide by the rules in the palace, and the slaves saw that it was really inappropriate and punished him a little bit." The woman said softly with a smile.

"Is that so, I remember that he has not been in the palace for a long time, and it is understandable that he is not very familiar with the rules." Gai Xiong stood in front of Wang Mo and blocked the woman's cold gaze.

"Since General Gai has personally interceded for a servant, if I don't let him go, it will be really harsh." The woman shook the handkerchief in her hand, although she was reluctant, but she had to let Wang Mo go, "Okay, you are lucky to meet General Gai today, you go down first, if I see you so disobeying the palace rules in the future, I will never forgive you lightly."

"General Gai, the servants are leaving first." The woman walked down with her head bowed.

"You don't seem to know Wang Mo's identity. He is the attendant of the princess, and his rank is higher than yours. Even if you are punished, it will not be your turn." Gai Xiong whispered in the woman's ear, he was worried that she would take the opportunity Punish Wang Mo, maybe next time he won't pass by by such a coincidence.

The woman's face turned pale, and she looked at the people in the distance with a hint of hatred in her eyes.

"Everyone has already left, why are you still holding the wine jar?" Gai Xiong reached out to remove the heavy object from Wang Mo's head, he shook it, the weight was not very light.It is rare for Wang Mo to survive until now.

"Just now, thank you." Wang Mo squeezed out the words in his mouth, he thought that Gai Xiong was watching his joke, but he didn't expect that Gao Xiong would be willing to save him.

Gai Xiong smiled, he and Wang Mo had some kind of friendship, standing in the corridor just now, he really couldn't see a maid making things difficult for Wang Mo, if he hadn't come over and spoke for Wang Mo, maybe that maid would have continued to punish him.

"You've already seen me, why didn't you call me out?" Gai Xiong saw Wang Mo's figure from a distance, he saw Wang Mo's gaze fell on him, and soon moved away, and he waited really When he couldn't bear it anymore, he took the initiative to walk up to the maid.

Wang Mo looked at Gai Xiong blankly, why did he call him? Is this also the etiquette in the court of the Huns.

"You have stayed in the Great Chu Palace for many years, you probably don't understand. If I had said a few words for you at that time, she might have let you go long ago." Gai Xiong looked at Wang Mo with the same stubborn eyes as the princess, Perhaps among the Huns, the Central Plains people would never bow their heads to beg for help.

Wang Mo still remembered that Gai Xiong deliberately made things difficult that day, he really didn't expect Gai Xiong to intercede for him, he just hoped that Gai Xiong would not take the opportunity to step on his feet.

Wang Mo glanced at the wine jar on the table, turned and left. It would be better for him to stay in the room in the future, so as to avoid these unnecessary incidents.

"Just leave like this." Gai Xiong saw that the person in front of him had walked away without saying a word, and shook his head slightly, no wonder the maid just now wanted to punish him.

"General Gai, I'll take my leave first." Wang Mo bowed his head and saluted. He raised his head and saw that the person in front of him didn't move half a step, and frowned slightly. "I said thank you just now, what else do you want?" Instead of being blackmailed by Gai Xiong, he might as well be punished by the maid just now.

"I just want to tell you a few words, if you don't want to listen, forget it." Gai Xiong took a step back, even if he was kind enough to treat him like a donkey.He saw that Wang Mo's back was somewhat similar to Xiao Xie, and he felt compassion, so he couldn't help but want to help him, otherwise he wouldn't bother to talk to Wang Mo.

There was some doubt in Wang Mo's eyes, and he withdrew his stride.

"The incident just now was not accidental, maybe it will happen frequently in the future." Gai Xiong looked at the servants around him. He didn't expect that the maid just now had a humble status and dared to punish others. Perhaps it was because of the master behind her. .

"I can stay in the room and avoid them as much as possible." Wang Mo also knew that most of the Huns in the palace were Huns, and they naturally bullied the weak Central Plains people, but could he not afford to provoke them or hide them?

"You think you can just hide, they will bully you sooner or later." Gai Xiong sighed, he heard that the court struggle in Da Chu was very fierce, how could Wang Mo be so simple.

Wang Mo moved his lips, but he didn't make any sound. According to Gai Xiong's opinion, there is no way for him to survive in the Xiongnu Palace.

"I hope you can remember what I said today. You are the attendant of the princess. You can only be disciplined by the princess herself. Other palace people have no right to punish you." Gai Xiong looked at the worry on Wang Mo's face. Mo thought too much, and when those palace people threatened him a little, he tolerated and compromised.

Wang Mo nodded, Gai Xiong should have said the same thing beside the maid just now, otherwise she wouldn't have suppressed her anger and left in anger.

"My previous attitude was not very good." Wang Mo looked at Gai Xiong apologetically, he didn't expect that Gai Xiong was thinking of him, or maybe he misunderstood Gai Xiong from the beginning.

"It's okay." Gai Xiong shook his head, and he didn't blame Wang Mo, his behavior that day was indeed a little too much.

"From now on, you will do everything as usual, and you don't have to back down when you see them. In the Xiongnu Palace, if you respect them a little, they will bully you a little bit." Gai Xiong gradually walked away, and he turned to see Wang Mo still standing in the distance. He couldn't help saying, "There is no such rule in the Xiongnu Palace. I have already gone far, so you don't have to watch me off."

Wang Mo looked at Gai Xiong's back, maybe this stern-faced person was not as difficult to get along with as he appeared.
