Night Emperor Crazy Concubine

Chapter 631 Rules 5
The tea that took a lot of effort to brew was mercilessly poured out several times. When Mu Xi said to re-brew for the seventh time, half of a box of priceless goldfinch had been ruined, and a pot full of boiling water was finally gone. See the bottom.

Feng Yuche was already terribly exhausted, the sweat on his face hadn't dried up yet, new sweat was dripping out again, his hair was sticking to his cheeks, there was an extremely uncomfortable itching, but he didn't have the energy to pay attention to it at all.

He tried to relax his mind, try to calm down, try to clear his mind, and put all his energy on the ongoing work of making tea——

But he couldn't do it.

There is obvious fatigue and sleepiness in his eyes, even though his martial arts has improved rapidly compared to before, even though his martial arts body is already a hundred times stronger than the average person, even though he has convinced himself time and time again that he will be able to do it——

However, Feng Yuche couldn't lie to herself.

Although he still doesn't know what Mu Xi's standard is, he clearly knows that it is impossible for him to meet his requirements today.

His spirit, which was on the verge of collapse at this time, had already determined that he could not complete this impossible job, and besides, he didn't know how to make tea in the first place.

However, these are just the thoughts in Feng Yuche's heart.

Even though he knew he couldn't do it, he still made the tea for the last time under Mu Xi's indifferent gaze. Although his movements were already frozen and his arms could hardly be lifted, he still took one step at a time. Slowly complete the final movement.

Looking at the teacups on the table and the clear yellowish color in the teacups, Feng Yuche put down the sea of ​​tea in his hands and stood aside with downcast eyes, already mentally prepared to be poured out again .

Feng Qi finished his lunch, and sat back behind the imperial case, struggling with a pile of high-level memorials.

Mu Xi glanced at Feng Yuche's silent expression indifferently, not ignoring his pale and dry lips, as well as his trembling legs and arms - this young man's mental state is very poor at this time, he looks Weak and pale, ready to fall down at any moment.

Mu Xi said lightly: "When You Ping first brought you into Fengge, he didn't treat you as a real shadow guard, so you didn't pay attention to many rules at all, but starting today, the past years will be completely destroyed. Farewell to you—unless you can’t bear to say give up. Otherwise, every word, deed, and action in the future must meet the standards of the shadow guard.”

Feng Yuche lowered his head and simply replied, "Yes."

"Today is a lesson for you. Later, I will ask someone to arrange your residence. Before you become a qualified shadow guard, you don't have to go back to Prince Qing's Mansion."

Feng Yuche naturally had no objection to this, and still answered in a low voice, "Yes."

Mu Xi glanced at him, and said lightly: "The tea made by myself should naturally taste the taste, so that there is room for improvement next time."

After saying this, he turned around and silently cleaned up the food on the dining table.

Feng Yuche remained silent for a moment, then slowly raised his head to look at his back, his eyes seemed to be a little dazed, with a trace of surprise, and a trace of almost imperceptible gratitude——

From yesterday afternoon to now, he has been introspecting in the most painful kneeling position, without a drop of water, exhausted, sleepy, hungry and thirsty, but even though his body is already clamoring crazily for being tired and tired, he clearly knows in his heart He knew that without permission, even if he watched all the tea being poured out, he was not qualified to enjoy it.

He even thought that his failure to make tea would inevitably bring him a harsh punishment, but it turned out not to be.

Suppressing the slightest emotion in his heart, Feng Yuche picked up the tea he made himself, his eyes were tinged with self-mockery.

In the previous 18 years, he probably never thought that one day he would be grateful for a mere cup of tea.

Holding the tea in his hand, he sipped it carefully, savoring the bitterness in it - the tea was good tea, but after brewing it with his clumsy hands, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was wasteful.

Mu Xi tidied up the dining table, picked up the food box placed aside, and took out two dishes, one vegetarian and one meat, one hot soup, and a bowl of white rice porridge.

The meat one is fish-flavored shredded pork, and the vegetarian one is stir-fried cabbage.

"Ji Ying." Mu Xi raised his eyes to look at Feng Yuche, and said calmly, "Just eat a little, go back to have a rest in the afternoon, and come over to work after dinner."

Hearing this, Feng Yuche was stunned for a moment, looking at Mu Xi with obvious surprise.

"If you can't hide even the most basic facial expressions and eyes, I think you will be very sad in the next few days." Mu Xi looked at him expressionlessly, his eyes slightly cold, "Today is the last day to adapt , starting tomorrow, you will no longer have any chance to enjoy special treatment."

Feng Yuche's heart trembled, he lowered his eyes in silence, and after a long time, he said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

sorry?
Sorry who?Mu Xi was noncommittal to his words of apology, he had already said what should be said, and the rest could only depend on his own experience, and day-to-day polishing in the future.

During the training process of the Shadow Guard, words have always been the most kind and redundant way of guidance. If you count on the first day as a reminder, everything in the subsequent process will not be so easy.

But Mu Xi didn't say any more about these, but turned around and walked to the imperial case, began to polish the ink, screened the memorials, and ignored the man who had been allowed to rest.

Feng Yuche's mood was more complicated than ever before. He walked to the dining table without saying a word, looked at the extremely unusual dishes on the table, including the meat and vegetables, and the crystal-clear boiled rice. White rice porridge, I don't know what kind of mood I am in.

He understands that Mu Xi is giving him a chance to adapt to the last day, and also a chance to say goodbye to the past. He understands even more that these may all be Feng Qi's meaning—the one who indifferently emphasizes how cruel and ruthless he is, but Always let the people around him willingly surrender a loyal master.

"My lord." Mu Xi looked at Feng Qi, "The Jin family, the Ming family, and the Xifeng royal family, do we need to punish them?"

"Not for the time being." Feng Qi said casually, "The empress is inconvenient now, so I don't feel at ease to leave for the time being. Since someone is taking the initiative to find something for Ji Moxiu to do, I'm naturally happy to watch from the sidelines."

When Mu Xi heard the words, he understood his meaning almost instantly, "Even with the power of the Jin family, the Ming family, and Xifeng, it is impossible to escape intact under Ji Moxiu's hands after provoking Da Zhou. , So what does the lord mean, let Ji Moxiu clean up Xifeng and the forces of the Jin and Ming families, and then the lord will have a showdown with him?"
