Cui Mingxi didn't like being surrounded by a bunch of people. Usually everyone else in the yard went to do their assigned tasks every day. She only kept Chunxi by her side.
She didn't have many people, so there were no people around Cui Mingxi's room.
Except for her and Chunxi, no one noticed that an unknown person entered the yard.
A master and a servant saw the person standing outside the back window. He was very beautiful and had a heroic spirit. He was male and female, tall and heroic, and his movements were graceful. He was male and female.
The two masters' servants could tell from the voice and clothing of the visitor that he was a woman rather than a man.
Chunxi took a step forward and stood in front of Cui Mingxi, looking nervously at the person coming.
But Cui Mingxi felt familiar with the person inexplicably, but she was very sure that she had never seen this person before. Such a woman with extraordinary appearance and bearing would not be forgotten if she saw her.
"Who are you?" Cui Mingxi asked, "Are you here to find me?"
"Mu Fei Shi." The visitor introduced himself, "Liu Family Courtyard, you saved me."
Cui Mingxi understood as soon as she heard that the person who came was the fox demon. She had heard a lot about Baojiaxian from her grandmother since she was a child. She was not afraid of Mu Feishen at all. Instead, she felt a sense of intimacy with him. She asked with worry, "Your injury
Are you all okay? Will anything happen to you here?"
If Cui Mingshu discovered the fox demon, wouldn't it be very dangerous?
People nowadays don't have a good impression of monsters, so she didn't mention the fox monster to Chunxi. She only said that Cui Mingshu went to the other courtyard with her to humiliate her.
So the question is cryptic.
Mu Feishi smiled and said, "I'm fine. Don't worry, the enemy who injured me has been killed."
Cui Mingxi wanted to say that there were several demon slayers in the capital, but seeing that Mu Fei was confident and not worried about his own safety at all, she said no more.
When Chunxi saw that the visitor was really acquainted with his own lady, he lowered his guard and retreated to the side and rear of Cui Mingxi.
"Sister Mu, please come in and talk." Cui Mingxi thought that the other party was a demon, and she was always older than her, so calling her "sister" would never go wrong.
Mu Fei was not polite to Cui Mingxi and jumped into the room from the window.
Chun opened her mouth in surprise. This Miss Mu was even more skilled than the guards in the mansion.
"Chunxi, go buy some good refreshments and come back. The refreshments at home are not worthy of Wuying tea." Cui Mingxi sent Chunxi out.
"Miss..." Chunxi was not at ease. Here, Miss Mu was a stranger, and she looked like a female general. What if she tried to harm the lady?
"Go ahead. Sister Mu is a relative of the Liu family. I haven't seen her for a long time and I didn't recognize her for a while. Buy some more snacks and come back."
"Hey." There are so many relatives in the Liu family. Chunxi only followed Cui Mingxi five years ago, so it's not surprising that there are some she doesn't recognize. Chunxi accepted Cui Mingxi's statement and went out to buy things.
Without Cui Mingxi's greeting, Mu Feishi found a comfortable seat and sat down on his own.
Cui Mingxi was envious in her heart. She also wanted to break those rules, but this was in the mansion and she had to abide by them.
She followed the rules of sitting posture and sat lightly on the chair.
"You are smart enough to know that I have something to discuss with you alone." Mu Feishen originally thought of letting Chunxi get some sleep.
This is the capital, the fewer people who know her identity the better, so as not to have to recruit the exorcist.
Cui Mingxi smiled at Mu Feishi and said, "Sister Mu took the risk to come here because she has something to ask me for."
"I'm here to repay my kindness." Mu Fei looked at Cui Mingxi with a smile, "What kind of reward do you want? Silver? Jewelry? Industry? Or do you want to become more beautiful? You can also want other treasures. As long as I can
If you do it, your wish will definitely be fulfilled.”
Cui Mingxi immediately shook her head, "Don't want it. I have enough money, and no matter how much I have, it will just be placed in the house. My appearance has already caused me some trouble. With my status, no matter how beautiful I am, it will only cause more trouble."
"
At some gatherings, she heard someone say secretly more than once that she just didn't look like a decent lady, meaning she was worthy of being a concubine. Her bright looks were natural, what was wrong with her?
, we should arrange her like this.
The eldest son of the Marquis of Wu'an wanted to take her into the Marquis's mansion as his concubine, so he might not have been affected by these rumors.
Mu Feishi raised his eyebrows, "Is it possible that you want to be young and immortal?"
"No." Cui Mingxi shook her head again, "I mean I don't want anything. I saved you because I don't know why, because I feel you are very close. Moreover, you were almost killed by my eldest sister, and it was all because of me.
Implicated.
Later, you rescued Chunxi and me and sent us back to the Liu family. After all, you are still kind to me."
"You really don't want anything?" Mu Feishi asked again, "You don't want to be young or old?"
Cui Mingxi thought about the situation she would face. What was the use of staying young? "No."
"Your maid failed to find out the real news. Your father has agreed to the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion and asked you to be the concubine of Prince Wu'an. Someone from the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion will come tomorrow to go through the motions and finalize the matter.
"
Cui Mingxi's mind buzzed after hearing this. She almost fell off the chair after sitting only one-third of the chair. She didn't know if she was asking herself or who she wanted to ask, "Why? The Cui family is a scholarly family, and the most important thing is to pay attention to ancestors."
According to the rules, how could you allow your daughter to be a concubine?"
The Cui Mansion is able to achieve overall harmony as a family because it is strict in running the family and follows the rules. There has never been an example of a girl from the Cui family being a concubine.
She didn't think Mu Feishi was lying to her. She would know whether it was true or false tomorrow, or if she spent more money and went out to inquire later, she would know whether it was true or not today.
Although she was uneasy before, she still had high hopes for her father, thinking that her father would reject the Marquis Wu'an Mansion.
But this news gave her a blow to the head and a deep blow.
Mu Feishi knew the reason, "It's because Cui Mansion abides by the rules. You who broke the rules will of course be kicked out. If you become someone else's family, the Cui Mansion's rules will be intact again."
Cui Mingxi thought she would feel like the sky was falling when she heard this, but no, after being flustered for a moment, she was able to think.
There was water in her eyes, and she sniffed slightly, "It's not my fault, it was Cui Mingshu who got me into the water.
And the Prince of Wu'an, if someone pushed him into the water, he would push him down. Why did he save me? It's not like there were no servants who knew how to swim by the pool. Didn't he know that he was harming me when he came to save me?
What I don’t understand the most is that if I am the one who breaks the rules of Cui Mansion, then Cui Mingshu breaks the rules even more severely, so why is she being condoned by her father?"
