The shadow of the country

The second day since Mu Yan fell into the water.As if Yilan had changed, she began to treat Mu Yan coldly.She no longer makes friends with Mu Yan like she used to.

In the early morning of that day, Mu Yan brought Yi Lan a cup of tea as usual, stepped back and stood aside.Yi Lan only took a sip when she took it, then frowned and smashed the teacup casually. With a "bang", tea and broken porcelain splashed everywhere, and everyone in the hall was shocked.

Yi Lan said coldly, "Who prepared the tea today?" The guards and maids inside and outside the hall were afraid to speak, for fear of causing trouble if they said too much.The hall was silent for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Mu Yan stood up and said, "Go back to Your Highness, it was prepared by my subordinates."

"Is it you? Why is it different from the usual tea? Who allowed you to make such an assertion!"

Mu Yan lowered his head and said: "This subordinate saw that the master played with the emperor till late last night, that's why today's tea specially added goji berries that can relieve fatigue. I hope His Highness will forgive me..."

Yilan changed from her usual gentleness, and sneered again, "Oh, forgive me? How dare you mention yesterday's game with your father? You obviously won your father, but you were kicked out instead! Why? Why? He, Su Yiyao, won the favor of his father without doing anything?!"

Mu Yan knelt on the ground not knowing why, his body visibly trembled, and everyone in the hall was also shocked.I have never seen my master lose his composure like this on weekdays, what happened today?

After a while, Yi Lan sat back on the chair and said coldly, "Where did you go last night? Why didn't you come to be on duty?"

Mu Yan was puzzled, but still lowered his head and whispered, "Last night, my subordinate slipped and fell into the water accidentally. Therefore..."

Yi Lan chuckled, but her face was as cold as ice, and interrupted him directly, "Even if it's so useless, I don't need to wait in the hall from now on. Go and kneel outside the hall for two hours before getting up."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Yan clearly heard the voices of people around him sighing in relief. Fortunately, the master didn't take his anger out on him.Mu Yan smiled wryly in his heart, but vaguely felt that Yi Lan didn't seem to be in a bad mood to take out his anger on him, but he wasn't very sure.He had no choice but to walk outside the hall, lift his clothes and knelt down on the cold and hard floor tiles.

In the Lanling Hall, Yi Lan was also in a state of confusion, but inside and outside the hall were all guards and maids, including the two eyeliners sent by the empress, so she couldn't show it on the surface.He had no choice but to be cruel, his face restrained his emotions, and he turned his head away from looking at Mu Yan.

At this time, a guard stepped forward, kowtowed and said, "Your Highness, don't be angry. Why don't you ask your subordinates to cook a pot of maple dew tea for Your Highness?"

Yi Lan nodded and smiled, "Alright."

The guard is really good at making tea.A pair of slender hands slowly poured the freshly boiled boiling water into the purple sand teapot.After that, he skillfully brewed the tea, scraped off the foam in the tea water, and every move was extremely elegant.

After a while, the fragrance of tea floated out faintly.The fragrance of tea is floating and refreshing.The guard poured another tea into the bamboo tea tube on the side, and then poured a second tea. The tea leaves were rolled up in the boiling water, floating and flying, and then slowly settled to the bottom of the pot.After a while, he poured the tea into the white porcelain cup, put it in the saucer gracefully, and presented it to Yi Lan.

Yi Lan took the teacup and said with a casual smile, "It's not bad. Would you like to be on duty by my side in the future?"

The guard was very proud of hearing this compliment, he kowtowed and said: "Yes, my subordinate is naturally willing. It is my honor to be favored by His Highness."

"Oh, it's interesting. You leave the rest of the people behind." Yi Lan chuckled lightly and said to the tea-serving guard.

The guards and maids in the hall retreated one after another according to their words, and closed the door of the hall again.Mu Yan was still kneeling in front of the door outside the hall, and he had already seen the group of guards and maids passing by him, casting glances of gratitude or sympathy.Mu Yan smiled wryly in his heart, but he had no intention of meeting those gazes.Thinking of what Yilan said to him last night to protect him in the future, he knelt up straight again, thoughtful.

I don't know how long it took before Yi Lan finally walked out of the hall, and when she passed by Mu Yan, her eyes were all cold.The guard serving tea just now followed behind him.When Mu Yan saw that this was the person who pushed him into the water that day, he was startled.After thinking about it for a moment, he settled down and thought for a moment, but he became clearer for four or five points.

I don't know how long I knelt, but the straight kneeling posture has collapsed into a kneeling posture.The pain in both knees was no longer tingling, but turned numb and unconscious, only feeling waves of exhaustion.Just at this time, I saw a person walking quickly and stopped in front of me, saying: "Mu Yan, I have been kneeling for two hours, get up."

Mu Yan raised his head, and when he saw him, he was surprised and said, "Wen Cheng? Why are you here?"

Wen Cheng couldn't help worrying: "Yes, I've been here all the time. Are you okay?"

Mu Yan forced a smile, nodded and said, "It's okay. Can you...can you help me? I really——have no energy left."

Wen Cheng nodded, grabbed Mu Yan's arm, and pulled him up.The moment Mu Yan just stood up, blood flowed through his knees that had been kneeling for a long time.Numbness and tingling suddenly hit, and I couldn't hold it anymore, and my knee hit the ground again with a "boom".She couldn't bear the pain for a while, her delicate face was instantly pale as paper, and her brows were furrowed.

His appearance frightened Wen Cheng.He had no choice but to carry Mu Yan on his back and walk to his residence.When they arrived at Wen Cheng's residence, Wen Cheng carefully put down Mu Yan from his back.Seeing that his knees were already covered in bruises, and there were still spots of blood, even Wen Cheng was shocked when he saw it.He took the ointment and carefully applied it on his knees, seeing that he was silent for a long time, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Mu Yan smiled lightly at him, "It's nothing, I was just wondering why Your Highness would..."

Wen Cheng was also at a loss when he heard this.After shaking his head, he said: "Actually, you did nothing wrong, Your Highness is just venting your anger."

Mu Yan shook his head and said slowly: "I don't think he's trying to take out his anger on me. It seems like he's targeting me."

Wen Cheng's hands froze, and he said with a smile, "Don't think too much, just take care of your injuries. In the future, you can move here. Your injuries need someone to take care of them."

Mu Yan hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and smiled at him, "Then, I'll be fine. Thank you, Wen Cheng."

After finishing speaking, he looked out the window at the bleak autumn scenery.If you think about it, don't speak anymore.

The author has something to say: Thank you, my little princess.
