The next day, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and a few white clouds floated in the wind in the blue sky. A few wild geese flew south in the sky, a sign that the wind was bright and the sun was shining, and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant.
Mu Tianxue stood in the yard and moved her neck bones mechanically. Both arms were wrapped with thick gauze, making them look like mummy's arms.
Long Chen was also afraid that she would strain the wounds on her wrists and arms, so he refused to let her get up to practice in the morning.
It was her combination of soft and hard tactics and coquettish flattery that made Long Chen allow her to kick her feet and move her neck in the yard.
Looking at her funny and stiff movements, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, almost thinking that she had become a third-level cripple.
The injury was not serious, but she lost too much blood and her vitality was damaged. Just replenish her vitality. There was no need for Long Chen to make her look like an Egyptian mummy.
"Empress, your medicine is ready, you'd better stop and rest for a while and drink the medicine!!"
Qingzhu put the medicine in front of the stone table and watched Mu Tianxue kicking his legs, twisting his neck and moving his arms stiffly. It was so funny and funny that he couldn't help but laugh secretly.
Xie Yunlu was sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard as usual, glancing at Mu Tianxue from time to time, with an unknown smile on her lips, and then immersed herself in her work.
When Mu Tianxue saw Qingzhu smiling secretly at her, he rolled his eyes at her, then slowly walked to the chair and sat down, saying: "Go get a pair of scissors!"
"Ah?" Qingzhu shouted when she heard Mu Tianxue ask her to get the scissors. She wanted to follow Long Chen's previous instructions. She hurriedly smiled at Mu Tianxue and said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty has told me that you can't touch anything now."
Whatever you want to do with scissors, you can let your slave do it."
Mu Tianxue frowned helplessly, looked at Qingzhu and said coldly: "I want to kill you with scissors, do you want to do it too -?"
Qingzhu's face stiffened, and his head was covered with black lines. He picked up the medicine on the table, fed it to Mu Tianxue's mouth, and said with a dry smile: "Mother, I'm timid, don't scare me! You'd better drink the medicine first, think
It’s impossible to remove the gauze!”
Mu Tianxue frowned and glared at Qingzhu, then reached out to take the medicine in her hand, wanting to drink the medicine herself. When she moved her stiff arm, she realized that her arm covered with gauze could not bend.
Unable to bring the medicine to her mouth, and several attempts failed, she had no choice but to give up and let Qingzhu feed her.
At this time, Hong Shao carried a cup of ginseng soup into the courtyard and presented it to Mu Tianxue: "Empress, Concubine Chen sent someone to bring some tonics, saying they are to replenish the health of the Empress and the Emperor."
Mu Tianxue looked at the cup of soup, stretched out her hand to open the lid, took a closer look, then closed the lid again and said, "Hey, they are all good stuff, great supplements."
Qingzhu moved the cup of ginseng soup aside and said, "My dear, do you want to drink it?"
Hong Shao frowned, stepped forward to hold the ginseng soup, and said: "My Lady, for your safety, you'd better not drink it, my servant will still bring it and pour it!!"
Mu Tianxue waved her stiff arm and said: "Don't waste it. Even if I don't drink it, I can't pour it out. Such a good tonic is something to be regretted when it reaches the end. Give it to Yunlu!!"
Hongshao responded, looked at Xie Yunlu next to her, and said, "Yunlu, come here. I see that you have worked hard, so I will reward you with this bowl of ginseng soup!"
Xie Yunlu was startled, then raised her eyes to look at Mu Tianxue and the others, put down the broom in her hand and walked over and said, "I would like to thank the Queen for the reward!"
With that said, he took the ginseng soup from Hong Shao's hand and drank it.
Mu Tianxue narrowed his phoenix eyes and looked at her and said, "It's been a while since you came to Nianxue Pavilion, are you still used to it?"
Xie Yunlu wiped her mouth and replied: "Thanks to the kindness of the empress, I am very lucky to be able to serve you in Nianxue Pavilion. Everything is fine!"
Mu Tianxue nodded and said: "I'm really wronging you by asking you to do these menial tasks. Today, you won't do it anymore. I'm bored. Your sword skills should be pretty good. Why don't you dance with the sword to relieve my boredom?"
!”
Hearing this, Xie Yunlu's eyes lit up. Since entering the palace, she had never even touched a sword, let alone dance with a sword. She immediately said happily: "My sword skills are really not impressive. If the queen doesn't dislike it, I will dance with a sword."
Relieve your boredom!"
Mu Tianxue hummed softly and said to Qingzhu and Hongshao: "You all have some skills, why not compete with Yunlu -"
She knew that Long Chen also appointed Qingzhu and Hongshao to serve her, not only because they were thoughtful, intelligent and loyal people, but also because they were both good with their hands.
Before, it was Lan Yi and the others who protected her secretly, and she had never seen them display their skills. Now that she was bored, she might as well pass the time by watching a few people dance with swords and practice martial arts.
"Your Majesty wants to see it, then let Hongshao and Yunlu spar, and I will serve you."
Qingzhu said, then went into the inner hall to get two long swords for Hongshao and Yunlu, and then brought some of Mu Tianxue's favorite snacks and put them on the table.
Xie Yunlu and Hongshao each held a sword, and after bowing to each other, they began to dance and compete with each other. They saw cold light shining in the courtyard, the swords colliding, and the sound of sword blades clashing loudly.
Mu Tianxue saw that the morning time had passed for a long time and Long Chen had not returned yet, so while looking at the dancing sword in front of her, she asked Qingzhu who was beating her shoulders next to her: "Today Beiteng and his envoy arrived in Kyoto, how can the emperor do this?"
I have to go and greet you!”
Qingzhu tilted his head and looked at Mu Tianxue and said: "The emperor has already arranged for people to welcome Beiteng Kingdom and his envoy. They will arrive in Kyoto around noon. The emperor has not come back yet. He must be busy with government affairs."
Mu Tianxue's eyes darkened and she said, "Go to Tianlao and tell Lan Yi to come see me!"
"Yes, slave girl, go right away." Qingzhu responded and left immediately. After a while, he and Lan Yi entered the courtyard.
"Lanyi, please see Master Xue." Lan Yi leaned forward and knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.
"Get up." Mu Tianxue glanced at Lan Yi and said respectfully, "That person still hasn't vomited anything?"
Lan Yi stood up and replied truthfully: "That man has a very tough mouth. No matter what torture is used, he will grit his teeth and say nothing!"
"Haha, it's really hard enough." Mu Tianxuefeng's eyes were cold and she sneered, "Go and inform the envoys who will welcome Beiteng and his envoys. After Beiteng and his envoys arrive in Kyoto, they are not allowed to stay at Yue Restaurant and Yuetian.
Inn!"
Lan Yi had doubts in her eyes and didn't dare to ask any more questions. She said respectfully: "Yes, Lan Yi will do it immediately!"
"Wait a minute -" Seeing Lan Yi leaving, Mu Tianxue stopped her and said, "You can go to the General's Mansion to pick up the third lady!!!"
After Lan Yi responded, she disappeared into Nianxue Pavilion in the blink of an eye.
"Why doesn't the empress allow Beiteng and his envoy to stay in the third lady's inn?" Qingzhu asked puzzledly: "If Beiteng and his envoy stay in Yuetian Restaurant and inn, they can earn a lot of money."
A flash of light flashed in Mu Tianxue's phoenix eyes: "I'm afraid that if I don't make any money, I will lose my life!!"
