"Mu Yong?

Mu Yong nodded and took a domino.It recorded his facial features, and also wrote a position as a cook in the imperial dining room.

After returning to the palace, it was already late, and Mu Yong hurried to the imperial dining room to get a name tag representing his identity.Maybe it was because His Excellency Wei An brought it himself before, and the steward was very warm to him. After learning that Mu Yong hadn't eaten yet, he told him that it was still too late to go to the cafeteria.

After being told this, Mu Yong felt hungry, so he hurried to the cafeteria.At this point most of the people had left, but there was still a lot of barbecue, rice porridge, and vegetable soup left in the cauldron.After a few glances, Mu Yong felt tongue-tied.After learning that eating here is free, Mu Yong tried his best to suppress the joy on the table below, and filled a large bowl full of meat and vegetables.Sitting down on an empty wooden table, he hurriedly stuffed the piece of meat into his mouth.

good to eat……

Mu Yong didn't have any other thoughts for a while, so he just put the meat into his mouth, but after eating for a while, he felt that his stomach was already full.Mu Yong has never eaten with his stomach open all the time, and now he is not used to the feeling of fullness in his stomach.As soon as I rubbed my stomach, I remembered that I still had half of the rough rice bun left over from the previous noon.Even buying new clothes, Mu Yong was not willing to throw them away.Now I take it out and look at it, but I feel that I can't swallow it at all.Mu Yong laughed, then threw that hard and ugly half cornbread into the trash can with a bang.

"newcomer?"

Mu Yong raised his head, and there was a tall, long-faced man standing opposite him, with a pair of slender red phoenix eyes, looking down at him.

"Return to Your Excellency, yes." Mu Yong stood up, the nobleman's clothes are not difficult to recognize, and the man in front of him is one.

The man raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Yong. "Don't know me? What are you doing?"

Mu Yong hesitated for a moment, and had no choice but to say, "The new assistant chef of the imperial dining room."

"Shouldn't that be eaten after get off work?"

Mu Yong looked around in embarrassment, everyone was either silent or looked at him curiously. "I just came here today..."

The man sneered. "Who introduced you?"

Mu Yong took a deep breath and said helplessly. "Your Excellency Wei An..."

"Oh? You have a lot of face." The man said he didn't believe it, but he didn't get annoyed. He took the time to tell him, "Go and call Your Excellency Wei An."

"Come with me..." The man led Mu Yong out of the cafeteria like this.Mu Yong looked down and saw a pattern on the hem of the blue robe worn by this man, which seemed to be like a bone.The man asked again. "May I have your name?"

"Mu Yong...

The man suddenly approached and whispered, "Why did Your Excellency Wei An ask you to enter the palace?

Mu Yong was stunned for a moment, so this person knew how he got here.How should this be said.Mu Yong didn't understand the situation himself, and didn't want to say more, but he didn't dare to neglect a nobleman.

"Because the princess wants the little one to take care of His Highness Qi."

The man pretended to be surprised, "Oh? Do you have any secret method to save your life?"

Mu Yong's heart sank, what does this mean?

"You don't know? It's no wonder you..." The man looked at Mu Yong's face slowly, "Even in this palace, not many people know His Highness Qi, after all, His Highness is very different. It's rude , and even call a monster directly."

Mu Yong didn't speak. As a minister, talking about the royal family like this is already very rude. Besides, that idiot is stupid, how could he become a monster.

"To prevent Her Highness Qi from hurting others, the current empress has taken great pains to prevent the past from happening again." The man said halfway, but stopped talking.

Mu Yong could only ask, "Your Highness hurt someone?

"It's more than just hurting someone." The man seemed hesitant to speak, and lowered his voice, "It's still a close relative. Do you remember how Empress Ziya passed away?

Mu Yong's eyes widened, his heart was turbulent, what was this man talking about.

Yes.Today's Empress Ziyi originally had a twin sister.One of them is an excellent fire talent, and the other is an excellent water talent.The elders of the previous generation will still mention the grand occasion of celebrating the birth of these two princesses.But when Empress Ziya was in power, Mu Yong lived in a remote place and was young, so he even forgot about Empress Ziya who died young for a moment.

In other words, the queen's elder sister should have a child now, but after she and her husband died together, there was no news of the prince.

"You, what do you mean?" Mu Yong looked at the nobleman in surprise.He said that Xue Qi killed his father and mother?Mu Yong naturally didn't believe it, but who would have the guts to fabricate such a thing?

The man said no more, just smiled. "His Royal Highness called you here. There must be her reason. If you have a family secret method that can control His Royal Highness Qi, it is considered a great achievement. If you don't..."

The man looked at Mu Yong, as if he was taking care of himself.

Mu Yong naturally doesn't trust him, but can Mu Yong trust the princess?Of course not.Just when Mu Yong's mind was in a mess.Wei An came over.

"His Excellency Huahan..."

"Ah, Your Excellency Wei An." Hua Han greeted Wei An with a smile. "This person said that you brought him into the palace. I was just thinking about how you brought a commoner into the palace for no reason, Your Excellency Wei An. , don’t let the bad guys in.”

Wei An glanced at Wei Yong indifferently, and ignored Hua Han's rhetoric. "Did you bump into Your Excellency Hua Han?"

"Don't dare..."

"Then let's take a step first." Wei An motioned to Mu Yong, "Let's go..."

Mu Yong heaved a sigh of relief inexplicably, and followed Wei An to the other side of the palace.

At this time, the sun had already set, and the lantern-like lighting bones were lit in the corridor. Mu Yong watched Wei An's silent shadow being stretched and shortened by the light, and then thought of what His Excellency Hua Han said, his heart was agitated, and he kept on Secretly waiting for Wei An to ask questions, but Wei An was silent all the way, until he reached the door of His Highness Qi's bedroom, Wei An said. "Try to stay by His Highness Qi's side if you have nothing to do. Avoid dealing with outsiders." After speaking, Wei An motioned him to go in.

Mu Yong opened his mouth, but closed it, nodded and opened the door.

One side of the room was pitch black, not to mention bone lighting, not even candles.Mu Yong walked in, but couldn't see where the silly prince was. Thinking of Hua Han's unclear words, he was a little scared for a while.

"Hey..." Mu Yong called angrily, "Where are people..."

Mu Yong fumbled to the window and opened the curtains, at least some faint light came in.As soon as he turned around, he saw a black figure squatting at the door, it was Xue Qi who was staring at him blankly.Seeing Xue Qi's face clearly, Mu Yong's inexplicable fear disappeared instantly.

"Come here..." Mu Yong waved.

Xue Qi didn't move...

"Come here, come to me." Mu Yong said a few more times, but seeing that Xue Qi didn't listen, he walked over a few steps and took his hand.Xue Qi was obedient when he was pulled, and he followed with a light tug.

"From now on, you will come here if you are called. You have to answer when you are called. Do you understand?" Mu Yong started the education mode with Xue Qi's expressionless handsome face.Xue Qi stared at him intently, but didn't speak.

Mu Yong squeezed Xue Qi's chin in dissatisfaction. "Speak, dumb? Say yes..." Mu Yong pulled Xue Qi closer, stared into his eyes, and lowered his tone. "agreed……"

Xue Qi's Adam's apple moved up and down, and he opened his mouth, holding back the word "good" after a long time.

Mu Yong laughed for some reason, "Huh? The voice is pretty nice. Say it again..."

"it is good……"

Mu Yong is a little proud, it's not easy. "Do you know my name, Mu Yong?"

"Wood……"

"Mu Yong." Mu Yong said it again, seeing the fool looking at him intently, his heart moved, and then he couldn't help lowering the volume, approaching the silly prince, and whispered, "Otherwise, you call Brother Yong Listen."

Xue Qi stared straight at Mu Yong, but stopped talking.

Mu Yong is also a little guilty, if he is called out in front of Wei An, he will be miserable. "never mind……"

Mu Yong let go of Xue Qi's jaw, and turned the dog collar out instead. "This, do you still have it?"

Xue Qi's eyes fell on the collar, and he reached out to take it, but Mu Yong avoided it. "Not this circle. This..." I tapped the piece with my fingertips, which was faintly glowing in the night, making it more attractive as a small dragon pill. "Is there any more of this?"

Xue Qi glanced at the dragon pill, but there was no disturbance in his eyes.

"Talk, is there more or not?"

"Have……"

Mu Yong was overjoyed, "Where is it?"

Xue Qi hesitated for a moment, he pointed to a direction, and then pointed to the ground.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that the silly prince seemed unable to explain clearly and stopped talking, Mu Yong could only ask, "Then can you take it out?"

Xue Qi looked at Mu Yong's face and nodded slowly.

"Great..." Mu Yong showed a smiling face.He intentionally asked how to get this dragon pill, but Xue Qi just shook his head.

"Forget it. Go to bed first..." Although Mu Yong was puzzled, he felt that things were going well.He looked, and there was a narrow servant's bed next to the big bed in the room, but the big bed was covered with soft cushions and leather.Mu Yong, who had never slept on a hard bed before, couldn't help but can't wait to lie down and try it.

He glanced at the innocent and innocent prince, took off his coat and lay down on the big bed.This comfortable feeling made him fascinated by his eyes, and sleepiness welled up within a few breaths.Mu Yong opened his eyes before falling asleep, and the room was so quiet as if he was the only one alone. He propped himself up and looked around, only to see that the prince was lying down on the spot just now.

"What are you doing?" Mu Yong, who was as rude as he was, also jumped off the bed. "I didn't abuse you. Come and sleep."

Xue Qi, who was lying down well, had no choice but to look up at him.

"Why are you sleeping on the floor?" Mu Yong went to pull him.Xue Qi was not very willing to go to the bed this time.Mu Yong realized after a while, "There are so many carpets in this room, maybe it's because you slept on the floor."

"What kind of habit do you have? You are afraid of light and sleep on the floor." No matter how big Mu Yong's face is, he can't let the prince sleep on the floor. He should sleep on the bed.

"No, come here." After thinking for a while, Mu Yong still pulled Xue Qi to the side of the bed, helped him take off his coat, and then pressed him on the bed again.Eyes met, Mu Yong whispered, "Sleep..."

Xue Qi's breathing became disordered for a moment, and he lay there stiffly.

Mu Yong felt more and more that the silly prince was easy to bully, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he lay carelessly beside him.

The bed was still very comfortable, but Mu Yong was distracted by the movement of the silly prince next to him, so he didn't fall asleep immediately.To his surprise, the silly prince was stiff for a long time, but he didn't insist on sleeping on the floor anymore, but turned his body sideways in his direction, and after a while, he gently rested his head on the bed closer to him. place.

Mu Yong felt itchy inexplicably, and opened his eyes. The silly prince huddled his hands and feet together, lowered his head, and leaned against him slightly. From this angle, he looked even younger, like a child.

Would such a person really kill his father and mother?

Mu Yong carefully recalled that although Empress Ziya was extremely talented, she seemed to have been in poor health. When she died, she said that she had an accident while hunting dragons and encountered some kind of particularly difficult dragon, and Empress Ziya Her husband also had an accident at the same time, and the current Empress Ziyi was also injured at the same time.In this way, Mu Yong was also a little suspicious, this dragon is too powerful.But that was all ten years ago.Mu Yong couldn't remember exactly what kind of dragon it was.But Mu Yong thought about it again, how old was the stupid prince at that time, he was only four or five years old, it is even more impossible for him to have such lethality.

After a few turns of his thoughts, up and down, Mu Yong stared at Xue Qi's face, and simply asked softly. "Do you still remember your mother, Empress Ziya?"

Xue Qi suddenly opened his eyes, but did not look up at Mu Yong.

"Do you still remember how the queen passed away?" Mu Yong asked softly, but Xue Qi was tense all over.He didn't speak or look at Mu Yong, but he carefully asked Mu Yong to back away from him and go back to the bed.

"What are you doing..." Mu Yong held him down with his hands, preventing him from moving.

Xue Qi buried his head lower, shook his head slightly, and was still hiding outside.

"Forget it, go to sleep." Mu Yong half hugged him, and patted him comfortingly.Feeling that Mu Yong was getting closer to him and putting his hands on him, Xue Qi didn't move. He just lay there motionless, breathing lightly. After a long time, he looked up at Mu Yong again.

Mu Yong had already closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully.
