Night was gradually falling. Inside the thatched house, the dim light of the oil lamp shone in every corner of the house. A woman in a goose-yellow dress was sitting at the table, looking at the table full of dishes, with a look of surprise on her face.
"Here, did you cook these?" Yun Yan pointed at the dishes on the table, looked at the man opposite, and asked in shock.
Hearing this, Mu Jingnan smiled proudly, "There are just two of us here, Yan'er and Yan'er. Since Yan'er didn't do anything, it can only be made by me. What do Yan'er think of this dish?"
The corner of Yunyan's mouth twitched. Was he saying in disguise that the fish soup she cooked for him last time was ugly and tasted bad? However, the dishes he cooked were indeed beautiful.
Let’s talk about the green vegetables, which are green and shiny, and look very appetizing. There is also the fried potato shreds with green peppers. The potato shreds are moderately yellow and white in color, and with the green pepper embellishment, they look good just by looking at them. There is also a big one on the table.
The roasted chicken has a crispy skin and smells delicious. There is also a large plate of steamed buns, which are white and soft. Even the porridge in her bowl is glutinous and looks particularly delicious.
.This is like cooking for the first time, but why didn’t she know he could cook?
"Eat it quickly, otherwise it won't taste good when it gets cold." Mu Jingnan said while helping Yun Yan pick up the vegetables.
Only then did Yun Yan come back to her senses. She nodded, but she was thinking about whether she could cook. She had to taste it before she could make a conclusion. She took a bite of the food he put in the bowl, and suddenly, she was stunned.
There he was, with his brows furrowed and a look of pain on his face.
Looking at Yun Yan's stiff face, Mu Jingnan was slightly shocked, "Doesn't it taste good?" He frowned, "Then don't eat it, spit it out quickly." After saying that, he stood up and prepared to help her.
Get the spittoon.
Yun Yan chuckled, pulled Mu Jingnan, and looked at his slightly frowning brows, "I'm kidding you, if this doesn't taste good, all the cooks in the palace will be ashamed to death."
Mu Jingnan raised his eyebrows. When did she become so naughty? He smiled helplessly and said, "If you like it, eat more." After saying that, he helped Yun Yan pick up the food again. It was enough to get her praise.
.
"When did you start cooking?" Yun Yan looked at Mu Jingnan while eating. It should be very difficult for a grown man to cook delicious food, let alone him. According to this level, he should
It took her a long time to learn it. As for herself, she probably wasn’t born with any talent in cooking. She was pretty good at everything else, but cooking was the only thing that stumped her.
Mu Jingnan's hands continued to move, and his voice was scornful, "Not long ago."
After using his chopsticks, Yun Yan looked at Mu Jingnan in surprise. He just started cooking not long ago. How can he do it as well as those who specialize in cooking?
As if aware of what Yun Yan was thinking, Mu Jingnan looked up at her and chuckled, "Yan'er doesn't believe it?"
Yun Yan shook her head slightly. How could she not believe what he said? But this really surprised her. However, as if she thought of something, she said doubtfully: "It's so good. Why do you want to learn to cook?"
Mu Jingnan's hand, which was cutting the roasted chicken with a knife, paused. He raised his eyebrows slightly and continued what he was doing, "The chefs in the palace didn't cook well, so I learned how to cook it for myself." As he said,
He handed the cut chicken legs to Yunyan's bowl and said with a smile, "Eat this."
"..." Yun Yan glanced at Mu Jingnan, because after eating the fish soup she made last time, he was afraid of trying her cooking again, so he just learned it by himself? But how could he cook it?
If he eats it himself, it is obviously made for her to eat, as her bowl is almost piling up again.
Yunyan was so moved that he had done so many things for her. She lowered her head slowly, and her eyes were filled with tears.
"What's wrong?" Mu Jingnan noticed that Yun Yan's expression was different and said quickly.
Shaking his head, Yun Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his head, looked at Mu Jingnan, and chuckled, "I was just thinking that if you were born a woman, you would probably be married. You can go to the hall, but you can go to the kitchen.
, I’m afraid many young talents are vying to propose marriage.”
After hearing this, Mu Jingnan smiled and said, "So Yan'er is worried about this? If that's the case, then I will marry Yan'er and cook for Yan'er every day." His handsome face
An evil smile flashed across her face, and she cut some meat again and put it in her bowl.
Yun Yan glared at Mu Jingnan. He never forgot to tease her anytime and anywhere. Where did the next life come from? She was about to speak when suddenly there was a scent of fragrance at the tip of her nose.
"Be careful, there is a scent!" Yun Yan and Mu Jingnan said at the same time, their eyes slightly darkened as they looked at each other, but their thoughts were already elsewhere.
At this moment, there was suddenly a sound of metal colliding from the door outside, the lights in the house shook, and there was a faint sound of wind whistling by outside, mixed with the sound of thunder and the sound of something burning.
The two of them looked at each other and nodded, stood up at the same time, and looked outside the door. The fire was getting stronger and stronger.
"It seems that someone wants to kill us. Get out first." Mu Jingnan whispered, took Yun Yan's hand and walked towards the door.
However, when he arrived at the door, Mu Jingnan went to open the door, but he couldn't open it. It was obviously locked outside.
Standing behind Mu Jingnan, Yun Yan listened carefully. The footsteps outside seemed to be getting lighter and lighter. Those people must have left just now. Looking outside through the window, the fire was lingering, and the room was getting hotter and hotter.
, this house is made of thatch, which is particularly easy to catch fire in this summer. If they really died here, many people would think it was an accident.
"Yan'er, step back." Mu Jingnan said in a low voice to Yun Yan behind him with a sullen face.
Yun Yan understood and stepped back a foot.
Seeing that Yun Yan was already in the safe area, Mu Jingnan stared at the door, concentrated his inner strength in his hand, and swung out his palm, knocking the door down. He pulled Yun Yan over and walked out directly.
Several thatched houses were all burned down, and the fire filled the sky, forming a beautiful scenery in the dark night.
Standing in the distance, looking at the blazing flames, Mu Jingnan's eyes seemed to be burning with flames, and a violent energy burst out from his whole body. He held Yun Yan's hand tightly, with a chill on his handsome face.
stern.
Feeling the power in his hand, Yun Yan tilted his head, looked at him, and sighed, "Do you have someone in mind?"
"Does this look like the first time we came to Dongliang Mountain together?" Mu Jingnan looked at Yun Yan and asked.
Yun Yan's eyes darkened and he nodded. Someone came to assassinate that day too. Those people were clearly targeting her. At that time, she didn't go to check who had done it to her, and no one asked about it after that, but that didn't mean that
, she never thought about who it was.
Today she and Mu Jingnan came to Dongliang Mountain, so few people should know about it. However, the carriage from the Sixth Prince's Mansion is so obvious, and there may be people following them around, so it is not difficult to know their whereabouts. The most important thing is
, this time, the target of that person is her and Mu Jingnan. It should not be Yan Lingxiao, because he knows the strength of her and Mu Jingnan, and he will not do such a thing that he is not sure of winning. So said
Come on, it seems to be confirmed.
"Who do you think wants to attack us?" Yun Yan thought for a while and said to Mu Jingnan, she needed his answer.
Hearing these words, Mu Jingnan's eyes gleamed slightly, "In this world, apart from them, there is probably no one else who hates me so much."
Nodding, Yun Yan asked, "Then what are you going to do?" Whatever she could think of, he could do the same.
"I have my own arrangements for these things." Mu Jingnan turned around, caressed Yun Yan's cheek, and said apologetically, "I originally wanted to take you out to relax today, but I didn't want to encounter these things.
Okay, you're fine. Fortunately, I'm here."
Shaking his head, Yun Yan smiled slightly, "You say it as if I am useless. If I can't protect myself, it will be difficult for me to gain a foothold in the world." But he seemed to be deliberately avoiding her, and she knew it.
, he didn’t want her to get involved in those fights, and this kind of him made her feel very touched.
Mu Jingnan nodded. His worries seemed to be unnecessary. His eyes fell on the burning thatched house again, and the gloom appeared in his eyes again.
Imperial Palace, Shoukang Palace
Looking at the kneeling man in black below, Queen Mother Gao's cloudy eyes flashed with a sharp light. She lowered her voice and said, "How is it?"
The man in black below was kneeling and did not raise his head from beginning to end. He just said respectfully: "With the incense and the fire, there is no chance for them to survive. When I left, there was no movement in the house."
Fragrance, fire! A trace of relief appeared on Empress Dowager Gao's withered face, and the corners of her withered mouth rose slightly. Finally, are they all dead? Die there, fearing that no one will suspect her. This is the solution.
She had two serious troubles. Originally she didn't want to do it so quickly, but seeing the emperor's attitude towards Mu Jingnan, she had to be on guard. There was also Yun Yan. She hadn't taken any action against Yun Mo Chengdu so far. Was it her?
I have begun to doubt in my heart. Moreover, she seems to have some relationship with Emperor Nan Yao. There are many secrets in her body. Such a person cannot be kept.
"You go down first." Empress Dowager Gao waved her hand and sat crookedly on the soft couch, with a cold smile on her face, everything was taken care of.
The man in black took the order and retreated directly.
Looking up at the dome, the corners of Empress Dowager Gao's mouth slightly raised. Mu Jingnan and Yun Yan were both dead. Ha, she wanted to see what the other two people's reactions would be. They had worked hard for so many years, and the person they loved most was...
The people you hate the most are all dead. Think about what they will look like when they know the truth, oh, what a wonderful thing it would be.
There was silence in the main hall, and at some point, the sound of footsteps suddenly came.
Hearing this voice, Empress Dowager Gao frowned slightly and said displeasedly: "Didn't the Ai family say that? Without the Ai family's will, no one is allowed to come in and disturb the Ai family?"
These words seemed to be lost in the ocean, and the footsteps continued to move forward.
Empress Dowager Gao straightened up and looked at the door of the hall, where a dark figure walked in. She frowned, "Didn't the Ai family tell you? Why did you come back after asking you to step back!"
The man in black seemed not to have heard anything. He walked slowly and unhurriedly towards the hall. When he reached the center of the hall, he stopped and looked at the old woman on the couch. His eyes were cold and his voice was cold.
