"What kind of technique is this? How can it be so powerful?"
At this moment, Empress Lan Jiuyun was very surprised.
She never expected that Xue Mu could make pebbles float on the water without being able to see.
This little gadget is quite interesting.
So Lan Jiuyun looked at the maid behind him and asked her to give him the stone in her hand.
Immediately afterwards, she imitated Xue Mu's actions and threw the stones.
But as expected.
The stone sank directly into the lake.
Lan Jiuyun was meant to be strong.
When she saw that her stone did not float on the water, but sank directly, she took another one and continued throwing it.
But the result is still the same.
The other concubines are also eager to try.
But all failed.
Xue Mu reminded at this time: "Queen, you should fly the stones sideways."
"Horizontal?" Lan Jiuyun was curious: "You can't see, how do you know that I just failed?"
Xue Mu laughed: "Mother, I can hear the sound of water."
Hearing this, Lan Jiuyun was also a little embarrassed.
She glanced at the concubines next to her, but they also failed.
She felt better.
Just as she was about to ask the maid to bring more stones, footsteps were heard not far away.
Mo Xi'er and Nangong Wei came together.
Xue Mu listened to the footsteps and felt a familiar situation.
I was wondering if Mo Xi'er was here.
Sure enough, Mo Xier had seen Xue Mu early.
When she saw Xue Mu among a bunch of concubines, she didn't bother chatting with Nangong Wei and walked forward in a hurry.
Looking at Lan Jiuyun, Mo Xi'er saluted respectfully: "Xi'er has met the Queen."
"Concubine Wan Gui is exempt from the ceremony." Lan Jiuyun suddenly regained his demeanor as the master of the harem.
She then asked: "Concubine Wan Gui is so leisurely today and comes to visit the Summer Palace."
"A few days ago, the palace has been haunted by the case of the cat demon. Now I heard that the real culprit has been captured by the Detective Division, so I took advantage of the nice weather today to get up and get some fresh air."
After saying that, Mo Xier pretended to glance at Xue Mu behind Lan Jiuyun, and said in surprise: "Oh, isn't this Xue Qianhu from the Divine Catching Division?"
Xue Mu knew that this girl was talking hypocritically, so he also saluted respectfully: "Xue Mu has met the imperial concubine."
"No courtesy." Mo Xi'er walked up to him and praised: "I heard that the cat monster case was solved by Xue Qianhu of the Divine Catcher Division. Xue Qianhu is so powerful."
When she said this, she deliberately emphasized her tone of voice.
Xue Mu knew that Mo Xi'er was teasing him, so he immediately said, "Your Majesty, thank you. In fact, my subordinate only helped Mr. Nangong solve the case. Mr. Nangong is the hero who solved the case."
"So that's it. It seems that Sister Nangong's niece is really the number one female catcher in the capital." As she said that, she turned to look at Nangong Wei, who was walking slowly.
Nangong Wei saw Mo Xi'er teasing Xue Mu.
I was also a little angry.
After all, he was her niece's sweetheart, how could he be teased casually?
So Nangong Wei stepped forward and affirmed: "Xue Qianhu has repeatedly solved strange cases. He must have made a lot of contributions in this case. My niece must have received your help. You are all good." of."
Then, she looked at Lan Jiuyun and said respectfully: "Weier has met the Queen."
"No gift."
Lan Jiuyun looked at Nangong Wei with a smile on his face.
Compared to Mo Xi'er's other concubines, she prefers to get along with Nangong Wei.
After all, Nangong Wei was generous and generous, unlike other concubines who made fun of each other overtly and covertly.
Mo Xi'er asked deliberately: "Queen, Xi'er saw you throwing stones from a distance just now. Is this a new trick?"
One of the nobles standing next to him explained: "Your Majesty, Xue Qianhu just showed us the skill of floating pebbles on water."
"So awesome." Mo Xi'er glanced at Xue Mu out of the corner of her eye and said, "Xue Qianhu, can you perform this unique skill again to show me."
She then looked at Nangong Wei and said, "It just so happens that Concubine Mu is also here. She is Master Nangong's aunt. You are familiar with Master Nangong, and it is also good for Concubine Mu to get to know you."
Xue Mu was speechless for a while.
This Mo Xi'er is really noisy enough.
Lan Jiuyun looked at Nangong Wei and asked, "Concubine Mu, do you want to see it too?"
"Wei'er also wants to see Xue Qianhu's skills." Nangong Wei knew that Mo Xi'er wanted to see it, so she also made a favor.
Mo Xi'er saw that Lan Jiuyun didn't ask her, so she didn't care.
Anyway, it would be enough for Xue Mu to demonstrate his ability to float pebbles on water later.
As for whether Lan Jiuyun asked herself, she didn't care at all.
Under everyone's expectations, Xue Mu took the stone from the maid.
Then, he threw the pebbles directly on the water.
Everyone looked over.
Sure enough, the stones kept floating on the water.
There is no tendency to fall into the water at all.
This surprised Mo Xi'er, who had always been playful: "Oh my god, can this be done?"
Even the well-informed Nangong Wei couldn't help but be curious.
Don't know what the principle is.
The stone floated more than ten meters away before falling into the water.
At this time, Mo Xier quickly urged Xue Mu: "Xue Qianhu, hurry up, continue."
Xue Mu also threw the next stone.
Similar to what happened just now.
Floating just as far.
This also made Mo Xier eager to give it a try.
However, when she threw the stone out, it fell directly into the water.
Lan Jiuyun became calmer after seeing this scene.
After all, she hadn't even finished it yet, so how could Mo Xi'er succeed.
As the master of the harem, it is disrespectful for her to play these little tricks here.
So Lan Jiuyun said to Xue Mu: "Okay, the cat demon case is over for the time being. What to do with the eunuch is up to you, the Catcher Division."
"Yes, concubine."
Xue Mu knew that Lan Jiuyun was leaving.
Sure enough, Lan Jiuyun briefly chatted with Nangong Wei and left.
After Lan Jiuyun left, Mo Xi'er finally felt free and relaxed.
She quickly came to Xue Mu and asked curiously: "Xue Qianhu, how on earth did your pebbles float?"
"It requires a certain amount of skill."
"How can you do this?"
"It takes practice."
"Then how to practice?"
"this"
Xue Mu didn't know how to answer for a while.
I saw Nangong Wei helping to explain at this time: "Okay, Xi'er, don't pester Xue Qianhu to talk about this anymore. He has just finished working on the cat demon case and is probably quite tired. Let him go back and rest." .”
"All right."
Mo Xi'er turned to look at Nangong Wei: "Sister Wei, it seems that you still feel sorry for Xue Qianhu."
When Nangong Wei heard this, her face turned a little red.
She hesitated: "After all, he is my niece's subordinate. If he is exhausted, wouldn't it be my niece who is busy in the end?"
"Sister Wei is right," Mo Xier deliberately teased.
At this time, the other concubines gradually left.
Nangong Wei is also ready to leave.
Before leaving, Mo Xi'er looked around and said to Xue Mu, "Master Xue, have a good rest."
Xue Mu arched his hands and prepared to leave the palace.
But just halfway through, Mo Xi'er's maid Xiu'er suddenly came to Xue Mu's side and whispered: "Master Xue, my mother-in-law invites you."
Xue Mu knew that this girl would not let him out of the palace so easily.
He didn't refuse, but followed Xiu'er to Mo Xi'er's bedroom.
As soon as he entered the palace, Xue Mu heard the sound of a vase being broken.
Mo Xi'er was heard saying angrily: "Xiu'er, throw this vase out."
Xiu'er immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with your empress?"
"The more I look at this vase, the more I dislike it. I originally liked it, but when I found it looked exactly like the one in someone else's bedroom, I didn't like it anymore," Mo Xi'er said deliberately.
Xue Mu heard the implication from the sidelines.
Isn't he talking about himself by co-authoring this vase?
But he didn't speak either, but waited silently.
Sure enough, Xiuer packed up the broken vases and left the palace.
After closing the door, there were only two people in the dormitory, Xue Mu and Mo Xier.
Xue Mu cupped his hands and asked, "Mother, I wonder what's the matter with calling my subordinates over this time?"
Mo Xi'er looked at him and asked, "Can't I call you if nothing happens?"
"Of course." Xue Mu said politely.
Seeing how angry he was, Mo Xi'er felt even more angry.
She directly ordered: "Sit down."
Xue Mu walked forward.
He pretended not to notice the chair next to him.
Prepare to sit down, intend to sit empty.
When Mo Xi'er saw it, she said anxiously: "The chair is next to it."
With that said, she stepped forward to help him again.
"Really, I don't know how I can solve the case even if I can't see it with my eyes."
Faced with Mo Xi'er's complaints, Xue Mu just smiled.
Mo Xi'er then asked, "Why did you perform throwing stones for the Queen and the others?"
"It's just a coincidence." Xue Mu replied.
After hearing this, Mo Xi'er pursed her lips and said a little aggrievedly: "You have never performed for me."
"If I want to watch it in the future, I can perform it at any time."
Hearing this, Mo Xier became interested: "Seriously?"
"really."
"Okay, then I want you to perform something now."
"What?"
"Empress, isn't this bad?" Xue Mu pretended to be serious.
Mo Xi'er laughed: "Can't you tell me now?"
Xue Mu also smiled awkwardly.
At this time, Mo Xi'er leaned close to his ear and asked softly: "Shall I give you a chance now?"
Xue Mu did not speak.
But at this time, Mo Xier had already started to take action.
The next second.
