The next day.

Mu Shui woke up to the singing of birds. After washing herself, she ate something briefly and went to Shenyin Palace.

Although the master said she could sleep a little longer today, she couldn't sleep too much.

When they arrived at the dormitory, Mu Feng stood outside the door and said to her: "The master has ordered someone to send the young lady back to the South Palace. In the next two days, you will go to Guanyin Pavilion to take care of her."

Finally, Mu Feng reminded Mu Shui: "There are only two days left. You have to meet the master's requirements. I'm afraid you will be very busy in these two days. Do you need to ask Shui Fu and Shui Rong to help you?"

"I will arrange this myself, but I went to Guanyin Pavilion, so Master there is no one to serve me." Mu Shui couldn't help but look inside the palace.

Mu Feng: "Master, I am here."

Although he was reluctant to leave, Mu Shui turned around and left.

Mu Yun was very happy when he knew that Mu Shui was coming. He ordered people to pack up the best room in Huan Le Ju for Mu Shui to live in, and then carried Cui Hengyue to the room next to Mu Shui's.

Cui Hengyue has been in a coma since being knocked unconscious by King Chu last night.

It was night, Mu Shui helped Cui Hengyue take a medicinal bath, applied the medicine, and then walked to the verandah outside.

After a busy day, I can finally take a break.

Mu Shui climbed onto the railing, closed his eyes, felt the coolness of the night, and felt peaceful in his heart.

Suddenly, a scent came. Mu Shui opened his eyes and looked along the scent.

But he saw Mu Yun walking over carrying a table with all kinds of delicacies and wine on it. He walked very steadily, and the dishes, cups and chopsticks on the table didn't move at all.

"Come here and sit."

While Mu Yun greeted Mu Shui, he gently placed the case on the ground, took off two futons from his back and put them away.

"sit."

Seeing Mu Shui coming over, Mu Yun pointed to the futon opposite.

As soon as Mu Shui sat down, a wine glass was handed to her. She reached out to take it and drank it all in one gulp.

"Why don't you ask them to do these things?" After finishing the drink, Mu Shui handed over the wine glass.

Mu Yun picked up the flask, poured her another glass of wine, and replied with a smile: "It's rare for you to come to Guanyin Pavilion. I don't want those irrelevant people to disturb us."

After saying that, he raised his glass to Mu Shui and drank it all in one gulp.

"I still remember the last time we drank together, we were with Mu Feng and Mu Huo. That day, the four of us got extremely drunk, and we were punished by the master when we woke up."

Talking about the past, the smile on Mu Yun's face deepened: "Next time, call Mu Feng and Mu Huo, and the four of us will drink again."

"Okay." Mu Shui gradually relaxed, picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth: "Well, it tastes good."

Mu Yun watched her eating fish with a smile on his face, occasionally picking up a chopstick himself.

Bathed in the gentle moonlight, the two chatted while drinking and eating, and occasionally commented on the mountains in the distance.

While he was drunk, Mu Yun suddenly said: "I heard about what happened last night. You...when you jumped, didn't you think that you would die?"

Mu Shui's hand when pouring wine paused for a moment, then continued pouring wine: "I didn't think about living at the time."

If she can't be trusted by her master, then why is she still alive?

"Alas..." Mu Yun sighed deeply: "Don't you think about your relatives? How sad they would be if you died."

Relatives?

Mu Shui's eyes darkened: "I only have one brother, but he was just born when I entered Yunxuan Temple.

"Now he is fifteen years old, but he doesn't know me, and I don't know him."

In the past fifteen years, she has never left Yunxuan Temple and has never seen her brother. Even if he was standing in front of her now, she would not recognize him.

Mu Yun's face showed distress: "Is that person threatening you with your brother?"

Mu Shui turned around and saw the distress on Mu Yun's face. His heart was shocked, and he immediately looked away, pretending to be calm:

“He said he would help me take good care of my brother, so that he could have enough food and clothing, and be educated and literate.

"For humble people like us, being able to live without worries about food and clothing is a blessing we have acquired over many lifetimes. Learning and literacy is something we never dare to think about.

"Since there is such an opportunity, why don't I agree? Besides, it is my dream to serve the King of Chu."

Mu Yun took advantage of the situation and asked: "If one day in the future, that person asks you to kill the master, will you do it to the master?"

"No, I will never do anything to my master." Mu Shui answered without thinking.

"If that person tells you that if you don't kill King Chu, he will kill your brother, what will you do?"

Mu Shui paused.

She had thought about this question before, but had no answer.

But today, she had a different idea: "My father and mother told me before they died that I must raise my brother to be an adult. If I fail to do so, it would be unfilial.

"But if I attack my master, it would be disloyal.

"Since ancient times, there has been a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety. If I were asked to choose, I would choose my master, because the Northern Han Dynasty needs him, and the people of the Northern Han Dynasty need him even more."

Looking at Mu Shui with a determined expression, Mu Yun felt admiration in his heart, but at the same time he felt that Mu Shui was pitiful, so he couldn't help blurting out: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you rescue Adi and reunite you."

Mu Shui was moved and his eyes were slightly red: "Thank you!"

...

Mu Shui took care of Cui Hengyue in Guanyin Pavilion for two days, and Cui Hengyue fell asleep for two days.

On this day, after Mu Shui changed Cui Hengyue's medicine, he took Shui Rong and left Guanyin Pavilion.

Another hour passed, and Cui Hengyue slowly woke up.

"Hmm...so comfortable..."

Cui Hengyue stretched out and felt refreshed and extremely comfortable.

"wrong--"

Cui Hengyue sat up suddenly, held the curtain and rubbed it. The color did not fade, it was crimson.

She looked around again and found that this was Huanleju, not King Chu's room.

Did she... wake up from a dream?

To confirm, Cui Hengyue pinched the wound on his arm again: "Ah, it hurts!"

This is not a dream.

But, the dream she had was too real, right?

She remembers everything that happened in her dreams clearly. She never dreamed like this before. When she woke up, she would only remember a little bit, but she would never remember it so clearly.

Cui Hengyue was confused and began to check herself.

The clothes are still the same ones she changed into after entering Huanle Residence, and all the things on her body are also...

etc--

Cui Hengyue took off the purse from her waist and opened it, only to find that there were only two pieces of mung bean cake and no dried meat.

She poured out the mung bean cake and smelled it hard, and found that there was no smell of dried meat at all.

After she moved into Huanleju, she took medicine and fell asleep. At that time, she only had two pieces of mung bean cake in her purse for food and nothing else.

Just like now.

Cui Hengyue scratched the hair on the back of her head, wondering in her heart. Could it be that she really saw King Chu in her dream?

"What a long dream!"

After much thought, Cui Hengyue finally accepted the matter of dreaming about King Chu.

She got out of bed, cleaned up after herself, and left the room.

Seeing the same two guards standing outside, the last trace of doubt in Cui Hengyue's heart disappeared.

"How long have I been asleep?"

Seeing the light and shadow cast by the sun outside the door, Cui Hengyue couldn't help but ask the guard.

The guard on the left said with an expression on his face: "Three days."

Three days?
Chapter completed!
