Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 425 Who is here
Mo Yi led the pony that Gu Lian was riding to the front of the carriage, put a bridle on it, and then drove the three horses slowly towards the mansion.

In the carriage, Gu Lian's face turned pale, she twisted her skirt with one hand, and looked at Li Yuheng in surprise and sadness.He wanted to ask her why she became like this several times, but thinking of Mo Yi's instructions, he swallowed the words again.

Li Yuheng didn't care. He took out the jade sword broken into three pieces from his sleeve, held it in his hand and licked it, and finally let out a regretful sigh.

After returning to the mansion, Mo Yi waved away the guards and went to park the carriage by herself.Seeing that there was no one around the backyard, he took the time to invite Gu Lian and Li Yuheng out, and entered the back hall together.

This mansion is not big. There is a small flower hall between the back hall and the front hall. In the center of the flower hall stands a screen with old trees and crows, which divides the space of the flower hall into two halves.

Mo Yi entered the back hall first, summoned a few subordinates of the Yin Yang family from the dark place, and whispered something in their ears.These people hurriedly cupped their hands, and then their figures disappeared.

Mo Yi swept his sleeves, closed the doors and windows tightly, and asked Li Yuheng to sit down.Gu Lian went to the flower hall, poured two glasses of water, took out two pieces of ice from a dark corner of the cabinet, put them in the water, and brought them to Mo Yi and Li Yuheng.

The layout of the back hall is simple, the tables and chairs are made of old elm wood, the color is dark and old.

As soon as Li Yuheng sat down, he put the three cut swords in his arms on the table, and then his eyes turned red, and he burst into tears.

"My jade, my jade! It was all smashed, and the jade sword was broken! Mo Yi, my million-dollar wealth, I can't get it back. Now I'm a pauper, woo woo woo..."

When Gu Lian brought over the ice water, she saw Li Yuheng crying so badly that she lay on the table, occupying the entire table, which made Gu Lian hesitate to put down the tray in her hand.

"Lian'er, sit down." Mo Yi took two glasses of water, put the tray on the extra stool, and then said to Li Yuheng, "How wronged you are for crying like this."

Li Yuheng said with tears: "I am wronged, what can I do if I am wronged. I still blame myself for my lack of cultivation, woo woo woo, if I had practiced yin and yang skills well before, I probably wouldn't have to spend so much jade, my heart is broken ..."

Mo Yi sighed, and persuaded, "You still have to do business, and you can do two things at once. It's good if you can take care of both."

"Don't you also multitask?" Li Yuheng seemed to feel that he was useless, and cried even more sadly, "I'm sorry for my father, and I'm sorry for my family's ancestors!"

Mo Yi said: "Businessman, it's common to lose money, so just treat it as if you lost all your money and start over from scratch."

Li Yuheng couldn't stop crying.

Mo Yi had no choice but to continue persuading: "Starting from scratch is not as scary as you think. Didn't your ancestors also start from scratch? With the experience and connections your family has accumulated over the years, you will pay back with hard work."

Li Yuheng stopped crying, slowly got up from the table, looked at the closed window, faintly as if thinking about something.

She raised her hand suddenly, slapped the table with a slap, and said with high spirits: "Yes! My ancestors started from scratch, so I can also dig jade and practice martial arts again."

Li Yuheng stood up, propped one hand on the table, made a fist with the other hand, and made a posture of striving for strength, "I am born to be useful, and I will come back after all the money is gone, so I have decided, let's go!"

"What are you going to do?" Mo Yi called out, calling out to Li Yuheng who was about to leave the table.

Li Yuheng held the three cut swords in his arms, turned around and said, "I went to Loulan, originally I planned to go to Loulan, and ask that sword idiot to help me reforge the jade sword. Before I leave, I will make a detour to say hello to you."

Mo Yi raised her brows lightly, and deliberately said, "You're justified. Back then, the sword idiot spent seven or seventy-nine days casting the jade sword, but you took it away without giving me a penny. Now you're holding a broken sword Let him work hard again, I think he will either be stunned by your anger or throw you into the sword furnace in a fit of anger."

Li Yuheng muttered: "Are you going to die if you don't tell the truth?"

Mo Yi sneered: "Is it wrong to tell the truth?"

Li Yuheng looked at Mo Yi contemptuously, drank the ice water quietly, and after taking a few sips, said in a more serious tone, "The crystal coffin of the former queen... the key to open the crystal coffin is Bai Yugui, only recast jade The sword and the scabbard Bai Yugui can open the crystal coffin again."

Thinking of Jing Huixue's delay in burial due to various reasons, and continuing to lie alone in that cold coffin, Mo Yi and Gu Lian felt uncomfortable.

Gu Lian's lips were bitter, and she asked sadly: "When will Miss Li come back?"

"A few months, I can't say exactly how many months." Li Yuheng said: "Loulan is not too far away from Dazhou, so in terms of time, it mainly depends on that sword idiot. Well, it's my fault."

"No, Miss Li doesn't have to say that..." Gu Lian smiled wryly, the sandalwood konghou hairpin on her hair fell to her ears, and the soft sound of Lingling was like a trickling spring.The heat of summer seemed to cool down around her, to the depths of her heart.

Standing up, Gu Lian took the tray under the table and said, "I'll put the tray back in the flower hall, and make you two cups of pistils."

Mo Yi nodded in agreement.

Li Yuheng laughed: "Thank you Princess."

Gu Lian returned to the flower hall, just put down the plate, looking for Fangrui tea leaves, when he remembered that the tea leaves were placed by the table in the front hall.Sometimes Mo Yi works in the front hall, and he likes the fragrant pistil she makes so much that he leaves the tea at the table. Gu Lian often sits next to him to make the tea and make tea for him.

Going around the screen, just about to step into the front hall, Gu Lian was startled by several people who appeared in front of him, and almost bumped into the screen in horror.

The chill was like thousands of ants suddenly crawling all over the body, and Gu Lian's face turned pale in an instant.She couldn't believe that the person in front of her was a masked man.

"Hehe, Gu Lian, long time no see..." The masked man smiled lowly, the two eyes under the cloak were like two strange ghost skin lanterns, making Gu Lian shudder.

"It seems disrespectful to call you that." The masked man smiled coldly, "I should say... Princess Molian, long time no see."

Gu Lian didn't know how much fear he had overcome, and finally looked directly at the masked man tremblingly, and forced a smile: "Why did your lord come in so silently?"

The masked man sneered: "If there is a sound, wouldn't Mo Yi be given time to hide Li Yuheng?"

Gu Lian was so frightened that she almost collapsed on the ground, her legs under the skirt were trembling, and she was glad that the long pleated skirt could cover it for her.

Trying hard to twitch the corners of her mouth, Gu Lian finally maintained her smile as she wished, and replied: "I don't understand what your lord said, what does this have to do with Miss Li, didn't Miss Li die in the fire at the Yudian? "

"Hehe..." The masked man's smile was creepy, "Princess Molian, you should know that I don't like people lying in front of me very much."

Gu Lian took a step back in fright, bumping her back against the screen.The silk screen was already cool and greasy in summer, and the slightest bit of chill soaked into Gu Lian's clothes, and all the blood on his face faded.

"My lord, I... didn't lie."

Gu Lian struggled to maintain a smile, which was unbreakable, "Brother and I... We just came back from the palace, and I was going to make tea for him."

The masked man smiled and said, "Then make a cup for me too. I go to the back hall to drink tea with Mo Yi, and ask Li Yuheng why his hair is white."

The two men in white were about to enter the flower hall.

In a hurry, Gu Lian quickly stood firm in front of the screen, blocked them at the entrance of the flower hall, and said: "The back hall is narrow, and I'm afraid I will wrong you. The front hall is spacious. Why don't you sit down in the front hall, my lord?" Go call brother over."

She couldn't let the masked man see Miss Li. In that case, not only Miss Li's life would be in danger, but her brother would also be severely tortured by the parasitic Gu.

The masked man sneered, "I don't know how to live or die."

Gu Lian was so frightened that he shivered.

In front of him, two men in white clothes approached.The two men put their hands on the hilt of the sword, and with a bang, half of the sword was unsheathed, and the light of the sword rushed into Gu Lian's eyes like the light of lightning.

At this moment, Gu Lian didn't think about anything anymore, and his heart swayed, planning to block the entrance of the flower hall even if he was stabbed by a sword.He took a step back under his feet, but unexpectedly, at this moment, an arm crossed his waist and hugged Gu Lian's waist.At the same time, his back hit his hard chest.

"Lian'er, who's here?" Mo Yi's voice rang in his ears, with a relaxed smile.

Gu Lian's tense heartstrings broke at this moment.She turned around and hugged Mo Yi, and buried her head in his chest, almost crying.

He clearly knew in his heart that the two of them might be in trouble today.But at this time, she can only rely on Mo Yi, as if his embrace is a safe refuge.Gu Lian's arms exerted strength and hugged her tightly.

"Lian'er, you're so startled." Mo Yi said with a playful smile, wrapped one hand around Gu Lian's waist, and patted her shoulder three times with the other.

Gu Lian was startled, and felt that the three pats Mo Yi just patted her were deliberate, and seemed to be telling her not to worry.

Mo Yi smiled and said to the masked man, "Master has come from a long way, but it's me, an apprentice, who has lost my eyes and made you stand here for so long."

The masked man sneered: "Hehe, Mo Yi, do you still know that I am your master?"

Mo Yi replied with a smile: "As a teacher for one day, and a father for the rest of my life, your kindness in nurturing me," his tone sank, "I will never forget it!"

Following Mo Yi's words, the chill came up from the ground. It was obviously summer, but the atmosphere in the whole room was unbearably cold.

Gu Lian exerted force on Mo Yi's shoulder in fear, fearing that the masked man would get angry and condemn him.

Mo Yi still smiled easily, and patted Gu Lian back, as if telling her not to worry.

The masked man suddenly smiled kindly: "A teacher for a day, a father for the rest of your life... Mo Yi, do you want me to be your father?"

Mo Yi smiled and said, "Whatever you want in your heart, that's what it is."
