Seeing that Su Qingluan also realized what his problem was, Mu Xingzhi nodded: "Although we are in the wild now and there is no 'ear of the wall', Qingluan needs to be more cautious in his words and actions."
His tone was very calm, but Su Qingluan was self-aware - this was a very serious mistake! But if she were in a crowded place now, her casual words just now might get Mu Xingzhi and herself into big trouble!
What frightened Su Qingluan even more was that she had read about the laws of this era, so she naturally knew that there was such a thing as "sitting consecutively" in this era.
In other words, there are some situations in the law where it is not "one person does something and everyone is responsible", but "one person breaks the law and harms the whole clan." In particular, crimes such as "treason", "rebellion" and "collaboration with the enemy" that seriously threatened the imperial power were severely punished.
Obviously, Su Qingluan's unintentional words just now had put Mu Xingzhi on the fire - what kind of person deserves to be shouted "Long live"?
And what is she thinking about calling others "Long Live"?
Of course, Su Qingluan herself didn't think that much at the moment, but what she thought was not important. What was important was what the person at the top thought, and even what that person's lackeys, Eagle Claws, thought.
How could the old emperor frame his own son just because of a mere "disagreement", not to mention that he was just a commoner who was not related to him?
Thinking of this, Su Qingluan broke out in a cold sweat: It's really dangerous, there is no "ear of the wall" here.
So Su Qingluan said to Mu Xingzhi very solemnly: "I'm really sorry that I almost implicated everyone because of my personal emotions. I will be more cautious in my words and actions."
She then apologized to the rest of the group, including Song Bo and Yao Guang.
In Su Qingluan's view, this group of people is "a team". The trouble she caused is common to everyone. If something happens, this group of people will not be able to escape, so they should apologize one by one.
But in the eyes of others, that's not the case at all.
In fact, including Song Bo and Yao Guang, the rest of the people were those who had undergone rigorous training for a long time before finally gaining Mu Xingzhi's trust and staying by his side.
So at first, they looked down upon or distrusted Su Qingluan, a "cook" who seemed to only know how to "cook".
Of course, Su Qingluan was not unaware of this, but she also understood the source of this distrust or contempt.
Because she herself has been in various groups, and she also understands that if she has worked hard to achieve a certain honor, and an ordinary-looking "airborne soldier" joins her, she will feel the same in her heart. uncomfortable.
However, both "trust" and "respect" have been established over a long period of time. Su Qingluan does not think that he will definitely be recognized by these people, but he also understands that these people are really loyal to Mu Xingzhi, and Mu Xingzhi Xing Zhi's behavior is destined to ensure that even if these people don't want to see him, they will not deliberately make it difficult, and will even actively cooperate when necessary.
In fact, this is indeed the case. When he was in Qingzhou City, Mu Xingzhi was "bedridden" for almost half a month. During this period, Su Qingluan either asked the two coachmen to help "decoct medicine" or asked Song Bo to help inquire. "Is there any restaurant with a good reputation nearby?" They never shied away - as long as Su Qingluan could explain the reason for doing so.
Including Yao Guang, even if something unexpected happens and Su Qingluan needs her cooperation, the other party will finish what needs to be done first regardless of the reason.
It was also during this time that everyone gradually accepted Su Qingluan as a member of the team.
And it is precisely because Su Qingluan really has not undergone any targeted training, and she can tell at a glance that she is not a Lianjiazi, so after accepting Su Qingluan, everyone is more tolerant of her - after all, she is the youngest , and he is not a real secret guard. As an ordinary mountain girl, it is not easy to persevere all the way.
So when Su Qingluan apologized like this, they were a little surprised. The vaguely unhappy feeling that had just appeared immediately dissipated, and even turned into a kind of discomfort similar to shyness.
"Hey, Mrs. Su is so polite..."
"How can I deserve an apology from Mrs. Su..."
"I, it's not like we didn't make any mistakes at all..."
In short, several people became shy and uncomfortable.
Fortunately, we were just resting halfway now and were about to continue on our way. Songbo greeted everyone to get on the bus, which finally alleviated the embarrassment.
Su Qingluan climbed back on the carriage and said to Mu Xingzhi: "It seems that I want to record everything that needs attention, so as to avoid the trouble coming out of my mouth - can you help me see what I have?" After finishing, I turned around to get pen and paper.
Mu Xingzhi smiled and held her hand: "There's no rush at this moment. It won't be too late to find a place to settle down at night."
"You... are quite easy to talk to..." Su Qingluan took out her hand uncomfortably.
Mu Xingzhi smiled and shook his head: "Just seeing your face, I know that you have realized the seriousness of the matter, so there is no need to say anything more."
Whether it's punishment or preaching, it's just to stop making mistakes again. This is a means, but not an end.
Although Mu Xingzhi had no intention of pursuing the matter further, Su Qingluan was secretly determined to keep what needed attention in mind and not make such low-level mistakes again.
Because her omission almost led to a catastrophe, Su Qingluan was a little downcast, and subconsciously sat down on the seat at the back, but was hit and jumped up again: "I almost forgot, this ointment for bruises, since I have already If it’s no longer needed, it should be returned to you.”
As she said that, Su Qingluan took out the "culprit" that had just stung her - the small porcelain bottle that contained the plaster - and put it in her hand, trying to put it back where it belonged in her memory.
But when I lowered my head and took a closer look, I realized that the carriage looked just like an ordinary carriage, but it had a lot of hidden compartments.
Moreover, those hidden compartments are divided into categories and appear to be very regular. There are several hidden compartments of different specifications.
Su Qingluan only remembered that it was taken from a four-finger-wide secret compartment, but there was a row of such secret compartments, and she was not sure which one it was taken from.
"The second square from the right on your left hand side." Mu Xingzhi's voice came from the side.
Su Qingluan almost acted as a conditioned reflex and pulled out the corresponding hidden compartment according to what Mu Xingzhi said. Sure enough, he found another identical porcelain bottle in the hidden compartment, which was obviously used as a backup.
Su Qingluan put the porcelain bottle back in his hand, closed the compartment, and sat upright again. Then he realized something was wrong: Was Mu Xingzhi too familiar with this carriage?
"...Is this carriage yours?" Su Qingluan looked at the man with the old god, her tone gritted.
If that was the case, wouldn't it be stupid for her to bargain with the carriage seller?
