Fate with you

Chapter 18

It is cold and windy outside the hall, but warm inside the hall.

As soon as the king's words fell, Mu Sheng's face immediately flushed red.It would be nothing more than a joke if someone else said it was a joke, but it was Your Majesty.Mu Sheng was extremely embarrassed, and stammered: "Chen, I will leave." She didn't think about the others any more, and looked as if she wished she could run away immediately.

Meng Xiuyi smiled, waved his hands, and picked up the paper to read again.

Mu Sheng reluctantly withdrew.She was terrified, and she didn't know if His Majesty wanted her or not, and if not, how long she would have to wait.

She went back to the Imperial Medical Office worried and didn't sleep well.She seems to be too excited, she is a woman, and most ordinary people will only be pink and reddish when they hear a joke made by His Majesty, how can she be so nervous that she can't control her tongue, it seems that she is very guilty, just Like being poked in the heart.I don't know if His Majesty will doubt it.

Her person, doubts most will not be known.

Mu Sheng turned over, very nervous, afraid that some unspeakable content in her heart would be seen through by His Majesty, and at the same time, she hid unknown expectations.She also couldn't tell what she was looking forward to, but since her rebirth, her expectations have piled up and become heavy day after day.

As the night deepened, Mu Sheng finally threw her drowsiness into the void, and her consciousness became blurred. At the moment when she was about to fall asleep, she expected to be treated differently by His Majesty. across.

In her sleep, she went back to that day a few years ago, the summer of Jingchen's 21st year, when she was desperate, she knelt in front of Meng Xiuyi and begged her to save the lives of her grandfather and uncles.She thought that she had saved her life, even if she refused, it would not embarrass her too much.

The scene in the dream turned quickly.She curled up into a ball and lay on the large and soft couch in the East Palace. Her body was naked, and her chest, which was as thin as fat, was covered with red marks.There was a glaring pool of blood on the plain quilt.She didn't cry, she didn't tremble.This love affair was not what she wanted, but if it was the only way to save her grandfather's family, she was willing to sacrifice her chastity.

The grandfather and uncles were imprisoned for the crime of usurping. Longyan was furious, and none of the officials dared to speak out. If the charges were confirmed, the adults of the Di family would be executed at the Meridian Gate, and the female relatives would be exiled to the nine sides , As a military prostitute, there is no dignity at all.

Compared with these excruciating sufferings, what she suffered was really nothing.

She never resented her for depriving her virginity in such an almost forced exchange, and she couldn't avoid the slightest estrangement.In her heart, His Majesty inevitably left an impression of being an extremely ungentleman.

Afterwards, no matter how delicate and considerate His Majesty was, she remained indifferent.Her heart is full of contempt for a villain who takes advantage of others, no matter if she is the Fifth Highness who is ignored in the corner of the palace, or the hottest princess in a day, or the prince of the Jin Dynasty who dominates the world. Lord, she even despises her despicable and lowly character.

The night passed in confusion.

Mu Sheng sat up, and the cold air outside quickly poured into her warm bed.The chill wrapped her exposed body, Mu Sheng shivered involuntarily, and all drowsiness disappeared immediately.She closed the quilt and sat silently for a while, then got up and changed her clothes.

Opening the door, soon a little maid came to fetch hot water.Mu Sheng gave her a gentle smile, and went to wash herself.

Breakfast was prepared on the table outside.It is a bowl of porridge and two dishes of vegetarian dishes, very refreshing and delicious.Mu Sheng ate his breakfast slowly and left here.

Not long after walking, it is the office of the Tai Medical Department.There are already many imperial doctors here, and when they saw Mu Sheng, they all stood up to salute, even though it was awkward for her, a young girl, to go over them to do medical treatment, her ability is still admirable.Mu Sheng returned the salute with a smile, then walked to her seat and sat down.

He took out a piece of plain paper, picked up the ink ingot with his right hand, held the right cuff with his left hand, and evenly grinded it on the inkstone.Not long after, a pool of thick ink came out.She put down the ink stick, picked up a pen and dipped it in, thought about a few herbs, and wrote it down.

After a while, several prescriptions were written.

It was really easy for her, but because it was prescribed for His Majesty, she carefully considered it again, and then carefully noted the contradictory things that could not be used at the same time, and sent people to the Secretary of Food, and the over there People, follow this recipe to ponder the dishes.

It takes only an hour to finish these.The next thing is empty.

Mu Sheng stood up, went to the medicine storehouse, took out every medicine there, smelled its smell, observed its shape, recalling its medicinal properties and medicinal uses in his mind.There are tens of thousands of medicinal materials, and it is a huge project to look at it blindly.But those knowledges are not hers after all, and she is only seeing a doctor for one person now, and she rarely has the opportunity to review the past and learn something new, so she can only go through it again while she is free now.

However, it is uncertain whether it will be busy in a few days, and His Majesty has not yet given her an answer.Thinking of His Majesty, Mu Sheng's heart couldn't help but sink.

Just staying in the slightly dark medicine storehouse for a whole day, when it came down to the Yamen, there was still no news of Jianzhang Palace.

The next day was Xiu Mu, Mu Sheng went to Di's mansion again, and gave Di Gong a pulse.She often came to Di's mansion in the name of caring about Mr. Di's body, so she became familiar with everyone in Di's mansion.Several uncles welcomed her as a little doctor with excellent medical skills, and my aunt also liked her coming.

This warm atmosphere made her carefree as if she had returned to her previous life.

She ran into Pei Chen twice again here, but she couldn't say anything.It's a pity, she really wanted to talk to her brother about the recent situation.

Another month later, there was still no news from Jianzhang Palace.Mu Sheng couldn't help being a little impatient, no matter what, she didn't want to spend her life in a doctor's position who was doing nothing all day long.She is eager to participate in politics, one is because of her long-cherished wish for many years, and the other is because the death of her mother and her has always been a knot in her heart. Even if there is His Majesty and brother, she does not want her party to stay out of the matter.

But apart from the two matters of revenge and participating in politics, it was His Majesty who bothered her more.

She fell in love with His Majesty...

She actually... She thought this would never happen...

"What are you thinking?"

Mu Sheng regained consciousness and saw the emperor sitting behind the desk, looking at her with dissatisfaction.

Mu Sheng suddenly felt very guilty, she hurriedly lowered her head, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty."

Meng Xiuyi's eyes touched the white and smooth nape of her neck that was exposed by her lowered head, she calmly moved her eyes away, looked at the side of Mu Sheng's face, and repeated: "What are you thinking?"

It was an extremely embarrassing thing to be bumped into by the righteous master when he was thinking of someone, Mu Sheng's jade-like skin was stained with a light blush.

Meng Xiuyi looked at her in confusion.

Mu Sheng pursed her lips, out of her instinct of not wanting to show weakness, and she didn't want to appear flustered in front of special people, she said very naturally: "I'm wondering why Your Majesty summoned you suddenly."

She seemed to have suddenly gained courage, and she was extraordinarily calm when she replied.Meng Xiuyi gave her a weird look, noticing the faint blush at the base of her ears, she looked at Mu Sheng thoughtfully, and said, "I called you here today because of your plan."

coming.Mu Sheng's expression froze, and he kept his face straight, and respectfully listened to His Majesty's continuation.

At this time, more than two months have passed since she submitted the paper.The curtain of spring has just come to an end, and the top three will be determined after tomorrow's palace test.She also understood His Majesty's intentions while waiting day after day. She wanted to compare her with undergraduate students and choose the best.

"Regardless of actions or words, they are all too vigorous." Meng Xiuyi said slowly with his red lips parted.

Mu Sheng's heart sank, could it be that he has been compared?

"That's why, you should first watch the politics in the Political Affairs Hall for a month." Meng Xiuyi was still calm and calm.

Mu Sheng's sinking heart soared again in an instant, this sadness and joy was really excruciating.She bent her lips slightly, and saluted solemnly: "I obey the order."

Meng Xiuyi didn't pay too much attention to her emotional changes, and arranged in an orderly manner: "As for the title of doctor on your body..." She paused, as if she wanted to see Mu Sheng's own meaning.

Mu Sheng hurriedly said: "Your minister can serve concurrently. I am familiar with all the affairs of the Imperial Medical Office, so I can handle them well."

Meng Xiuyi had no other words, he nodded and said: "That's how it is." If she wants to resign from the post of doctor, I'm afraid she will have to replace someone else when she participates in politics.It's common to be concurrently, if she can't take care of these things, she will doubt her own vision.

"At your age, your vigor is normal. It would be a pity if you lose your temper. However, you need to learn step by step." Meng Xiuyi tapped the paper on the desk with his slender fingertips, and immediately the eunuch stepped forward to pick it up with both hands. , sent it to Mu Sheng, Mu Sheng took it, opened it, and it was still the same, neither added nor deleted.

"After watching the government for a month, after that, improve the measures you have written, and then submit them." Meng Xiuyi said, "I don't want to talk about wars on paper, and I don't want to be imaginative. I want to put them into practice."

The calm and calm tone of the last half of the sentence added seriousness and coercion, which made people feel under pressure.Mu Shengzhuang bowed down on the ground to inspect the head, very solemnly and earnestly: "I obey the order."

Meng Xiuyi smiled in satisfaction, his deep eyes softened a bit, he leaned back on the bright yellow cushion, and said slowly: "Get up."

At this point, the business is over.

Mu Sheng straightened up according to the words, folded her hands on her knees, and knelt down again.

As soon as she sat upright, when she looked up, she saw His Majesty looking at her with great interest, that gaze seemed to be able to see everything, making her newly awakened heartbeat nowhere to hide.Mu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, but she has been trained in the court since she was young, and she behaves in the world with integrity. Besides, even if she really likes His Majesty, it's not something hard to say, so she raised her head and let the emperor look at her.

Meng Xiuyi couldn't help chuckling, she always felt that this woman was very similar to that person, and now they are even more so.That person was the same, she was clearly a weak little girl, but she always straightened her back, refused to give in at all, she was so stubborn and stubborn that she felt pity for her, and wished she could be trapped by her side forever, and she was not allowed to go anywhere .

The smile on Meng Xiuyi's lips gradually subsided, and he said lazily: "Okay, remember what you said today, don't let me down. You step back."

It was all said and done, and it seemed that there was indeed no reason to stay.

Mu Sheng saw that her brows were full of tiredness, and her heart was full of distress, so she didn't stay any longer, and leaned over to leave neatly.I hope that at this time, when there is no audience, His Majesty can rest for a while.
