Chapter Eight
Before Mo Xi returned to Qingyin Pavilion and sat down, a young eunuch came over to tell her that there was news about the queen. Mo Xi lowered his head and smiled, this queen couldn't hold her breath.
It has been almost two hours since she knelt on the stone steps outside the side hall of Yongshou Palace. There were few people coming and going here, so even if Mo Xi knelt down and died here, no one would know. This was a smart choice for Zuo Li.
Mo Xi didn't show any dissatisfaction at all, and his always neutral expression was particularly dazzling in Zuo Li's eyes.
She was already the queen, the queen of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix. How could a little musician not bend down and beg for mercy? After the Queen Mother Mo Ming was criticized, Zuo Li had no idea that it was her own gaffe that made the Queen Mother unhappy.
, but Mo Xi, a small musician, was looked upon with disdain by the Queen Mother. She felt uncomfortable in her heart and wanted to do anything.
"Mo Xi, I heard that you once played music to the Pope alone. I wonder if you have time to teach me too?" Zuo Li sent someone to move a chair at the door, and she was leaning comfortably on the cushioned chair.
He leaned back in his chair and asked.
"In return, if your Majesty likes it, Mo Xi is willing to serve you." Mo Xi said lightly.
"Really? I can't play those obscene and erotic songs, and I don't dare to lose the face of my country, Xuanqian." Zuo Li's words were full of guns and sticks, insinuating Mo Xi and those people who are just for fun.
Women are no different.
Mo Xi's heart suddenly felt pity for this poor Zuo Li. He was so sharp and had no real backing, yet he didn't know how to restrain himself. He offended others without knowing it. He was afraid that sooner or later he would become the abandoned son of the Queen Mother, and all he needed was a small boost, so
She said: "The queen is joking, Feng Qiuhuang is the love of the Queen Mother's life. Mo Xi has not grasped the essence of it, so he has to practice hard in private, but he really does not dare to compare it with the erotic song."
Zuo Li was even more unhappy when she heard that Mo Xi was using the Queen Mother to suppress her. Mo Xi's small white and tender hands were so dazzling in her eyes, full of malice, that she didn't let Mo Xi get up.
He just sneered: "Cuiyu, Mo Xi has been here for so long, so he must be thirsty, why didn't he serve tea?"
Cui said that he would understand it as soon as he understood it, but after a moment he brought a cup of tea over: "Miss Mo Xi, please have tea."
Mo Xi glanced at the teacup, and there was still steam escaping from the edge of the cup lid. He stretched out his slender fingers and was about to take it when Cuiyu suddenly flipped the tray over and poured the entire cup of scalding hot water onto Mo Xi's left hand, which immediately became red and swollen.
A big piece.
"How dare you not accept the tea given by your Majesty!" Cuiyu scolded!
"Mo Xi doesn't dare!" Mo Xi kowtowed quickly, ignoring the blisters on his left hand.
"Don't you dare? I think you are very brave!" Zuo Li cruelly stepped on Mo Xi's hand!
Those brittle, green-onion-like fingers had already been burned by boiling water. When he stepped on his foot, his skin was torn open, and the dust on the ground was rubbed into his flesh. The pain from his fingers to his heart made Mo Xi break out in a cold sweat. He watched his hand being crushed.
At Zuo Li's feet, the tender red flesh on the skin as white as jade showed a coquettish beauty.
"What's wrong with Musician Mo Xi? Why is he sweating profusely?" Zuo Li pretended to be confused and took out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from Mo Xi's pale face. However, the force on his feet became stronger and stronger. Such weak fingers could no longer
If it continues to be ravaged, I'm afraid it will break.
Gritting her teeth and enduring the pain, the arrogance in Mo Xi's bones was aroused! She has never really surrendered to anyone, even if it is an irreversible fate, let alone a idiot like you Zuo Li!
Raising his head, Mo Xi's pale face broke out into a seductive smile, so beautiful that it made people's hearts tremble. His lips that had faded away from their blood-red lips opened lightly and he said softly: "Maybe it's a hot day, thank you for your concern."
Zuo Li looked embarrassed. She just couldn't stand Mo Xi's aloof demeanor. She was a servant before, and what she wants now is for everyone to fear her and obey her orders, but Mo Xi
But he insists on stealing her limelight and refuses to bow his head, which is a bad thing for her!
Just when she was about to crush those fingers that were irritating her eyes, she heard the sound of broken porcelain coming from the hall.
"Who doesn't want his life? Go out and die by yourself!" Zuo Li slightly tilted his head and cursed angrily.
After Zuo Li entered the palace, the Queen Mother did not do much to take care of her, but she herself wanted to get rid of her vulgar and ignorant past. The decorations in the Yongshou Palace must be elegant and wealthy, and the hangings on the walls must be authentic works by everyone, and must be stepped on.
It is a tribute blanket from the Western Regions, and the potted plants are also selected from the rare and difficult-to-grow Cymbidium orchid, which means the quality of Cymbidium orchid and the heart of Cymbidium.
What was broken was the pot of cymbidium. Zuo Li turned her head half way and saw only the helpless flowers, grass and soil lying on the ground. She didn't see clearly who broke it. She just thought it was a servant's carelessness. But she didn't want to hear it.
She said in a lazy voice, with a hint of helplessness: "My queen is still so powerful, so I'd better go back first."
Baili Muyun had been here for a long time, and when he saw that no one was waiting in the main hall, he was surprised to hear the movement in the side hall. When he came over looking for the sound, he saw Zuo Li stepping on Mo Xi.
The scene in his hand. He was angry in his heart, but he didn't know why he was angry. He tried to suppress his anger and pretended to turn a blind eye.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Li became more and more vicious, and Mo Xi was as stubborn as a boy. Although her words were respectful and polite, she didn't mean to beg for mercy at all. Looking at her thin body kneeling there and swaying, her black hair was a little scattered, but her eyebrows were full of
He was arrogant, and there was no hint of cowardice in his eyes. Baili Muyun knew that Zuo Li's temper might really destroy Mo Xi's hands, but he deliberately broke a potted plant and made a scene.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why are you here?" Zuo Li heard Baili Muyun's voice and hurriedly ran towards the palace without looking at Mo Xi.
The left hand he was looking at was shaking a little because of the pain. Mo Xi just let out a long breath, and he had passed this test today.
Sure enough, Zuo Li entered the inner hall and never came out. Instead, her personal maid Cuiyu came out to send her away. Perhaps Zuo Li couldn't tolerate people who were too delicate around her. Cuiyu didn't look very good, but she was mean to her.
Like the master, she looked arrogantly as if she was also the master and said:
"Today, I was very happy to invite you to have a drink, but I didn't want you to accidentally burn your finger. Your Majesty is compassionate and gave you a box of gelatin cream, which I happily kept."
As she spoke, she took out a box from her sleeve and opened it to see that there was white powder inside. Mo Xi's pupils shrank and she thought something bad. The jade jade had already sprinkled the powder inside on her wound. It was salt!
The white salt soaked in the wound instantly amplified the pain a hundred times. It was as sharp as countless ants gnawing at it. The pain made Mo Xi tremble and he almost collapsed. He put his right hand on the ground and kowtowed in thanks: "Mo Xi, thank you for your gift!"
Then he slowly supported himself and retreated outside.
It was already dusk, and Mo Xi's legs that had been kneeling for too long had already lost all feeling. As soon as his feet landed on the ground, he felt that the feet were not his own, but thousands of needles were inserted into his body, causing numbness and pain. Every step he took was difficult to move.
, Qiang dragged his steps out of the Yongshou Palace. Cuiyu looked at Mo Xi's frail body little by little out of the Yongshou Palace with a vicious look on his face. It wasn't until Mo Xi's figure disappeared that she replied to her master with lingering thoughts.
Baili Muyun held the wine bottle and swayed half a glass of sake in it, and looked lazily at Zuo Li, who was undressing and undressing in her arms. There was a flirtatious look in her eyes, and she was posing in an unfamiliar manner, which made people look a little awkward.
Baili Muyun pretended to be the most relaxed in front of this woman, because she didn't have to hide the disgust and indifference in her eyes. She couldn't understand those things at all, so Baili Muyun just pulled the corner of his mouth and put on something that looked sinister.
Laughing: "The queen is impatient with waiting?"
"Your Majesty, when there is no one in private, the Emperor can call Li'er by her first name." Zuo Li's face turned red with embarrassment, and her soft and waxy voice was particularly sweet. She looked completely different from the one who had just humiliated Mo Xi. She really believed it.
Didn’t you see anything in those words?
The finger coated with bean paste lightly touched Baili Muyun's chest and slowly moved across it, trying to untie his shirt. Although Zuo Li was stupid, she remembered what the Queen Mother told her, whether it was with the Emperor or the Queen Mother.
, she could only live a good life if she served the emperor. So she tried her best to seduce the emperor and made these charming gestures to seduce men, thinking that Baili Muyun was a lustful and foolish emperor anyway, and he would definitely like it.
She didn't know that Baili Muyun was very disgusted at this moment. What was the difference between such a naked breast and those promiscuous women in the bar? It was ridiculous that her queen looked so coquettish. She endured the disgust in her heart and followed her left.
Li took off her clothes. The days would be long, so she had better get used to her stupid look earlier.
With his eyes closed, Mo Xi's stubborn attitude just now was still there, with his fingers connected to his heart, she must be in pain? It was like there were hands scratching in his heart, which made him uneasy, so he pushed Zuo Li away and laughed:
"I remembered that a good thing was just sent to my palace, so I gave it to the queen." After that, he walked out.
"If you have something, let the servants take it." Zuo Li, disheveled, ran out after Baili Muyun, but found that he was walking in a hurry and couldn't keep up. He only shouted from behind: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." quite a bit.
