Mo Xuetong didn't know that she had been noticed by Feng Jue.

She was preparing dinner in the courtyard at this time.

Xu's mother personally cooked, fried in oil, and burned the aroma all over the courtyard.

Most of the maidens in Qingwei Garden are newly selected, and some are pulled by Mohuawen from other places, all of them are people who seem to be shrewd and capable, and they will clean up the garden, and they will no longer be ordered like before.

Mo Huawen came a little late, the envoy of Yan Kingdom entered the capital, and the guard alone was his business, so he had to finish his official business, and besides, the prince of Yan State did not live in a post station.

When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw him in the sharp-eyed Yahuan, and quickly ran in to report to Mo Xuetong.

Mo Xuetong greeted Mo Yu to the door.

Since the last time the two of them were separated because of Aunt Fang, this was the first time they met, Mo Huawen felt sorry for his daughter, and didn't know how to deal with it. ”

The cowardice that could not be concealed in the raised eyebrows and eyes was moist like water, and his heart ached, and he couldn't speak for a while, so he only waved his hand and walked forward with two steps, and the corners of his eyes were unconsciously wet.

It was only when he sat down again that he stabilized his mood.

"Father, who are the people who came from Yan Guo today?Did you bring any fun gifts to the emperor?" Mo Xuetong poured a glass of wine for Mo Huawen, raised her eyes and asked coquettishly, as if she didn't have any trouble because of what happened a few days ago, and she was still the naïve of her youngest daughter.

Seeing that his daughter was so unwitting, and she didn't feel aggrieved at all, Mo Huawen felt more and more sorry for her generous and lovely daughter, and her heart was full of distress, she took the wine glass, drank a few big sips, and her body was warmed up by the wind, and her heart warmed up, looking at her daughter's smiling face, the shadow of the past few days seemed to be swept away.

Hiding the emotion in his eyes, he pretended to be casual and said: "Tong'er, the eldest princess's mansion is lively today, and my father can't participate in the palace banquet today, so I have wronged you." ”

The envoy of Yan Kingdom entered the city today was suddenly decided, counting the process, I thought that he would rush into the city on the day of the Lantern Festival, but I didn't expect that the eldest prince of Yan Kingdom said that he wanted to take a break, so it was decided today, which also disrupted Mo Huawen's plan, his original intention was to take advantage of this time, to make a good face for his daughter, and never let others look down on Pupil, so that others feel that their daughter is climbing a high branch.

But people are not as good as the sky, or they can't be calculated, the eldest prince who hurried into Beijing on the way will come to an emergency brake at the city gate, and force one thing to be done in two days, how could Mo Huawen be depressed in his heart, thinking that Tong'er would be sad and sad when he came back today.

Unexpectedly, he was greeted by his daughter's sweet and lovely smile, without any mustard, and there was joy between his eyebrows and eyes.

"Father said that, today the envoy of Yan Kingdom entered Beijing, and the emperor set up a palace banquet in the main hall to entertain the envoys, if my father could not participate, Tong'er would feel wronged. Mo Xuetong smiled sweetly, stretched out her chopsticks and put two dumplings on his plate, where his father's favorite celery filling.

"Father try this, this is the pupil when he came back, I don't know if it suits my father's taste, last night Hitomi went out to watch the fireworks, I didn't have time to have a reunion dinner with my father, I made it up today, my father is not allowed to say that Hitomi is playful, and I dislike Hitomi. ”

"It's delicious, Hitomi makes it naturally delicious. Mo Huawen was moved to pick up one, regardless of the taste, he swallowed it after three chews and two chews, and the old man was relieved and praised loudly.

"Isn't my father very busy these days, he hasn't eaten well, he looks thin, and he needs to eat more here at Hitomi today. Mo Xuetong's eyes fell on Mo Huawen, only to find that he hadn't seen him for two days, and his father seemed to have lost a lot of weight, not only because of business but also private affairs, and his heart was a little sour.

"I was a little busy before, but it's good after the New Year, and the cases of several mansions are the most troublesome of the Mingguo Mansions, and now I finally have some eyebrows, I heard that someone saw her with a maid ring, and she got into the car by herself, and she was not robbed by some thief. Mo Huawen rubbed his forehead and said with annoyance.

I thought that the young lady of the Mingguo Mansion was also robbed, and the matter of snatching people and destroying people's reputations is a big deal, not to mention that it is still from the Mingguo Mansion, You Yuecheng came to ask for training at the head of the two heads in three days, and he sent a large number of people to investigate, check and check, but found such a result.

A woman elopes with someone is not something that the yamen of the Criminal Department should be in charge of, Mo Huawen put the confession case file in front of You Yuecheng, You Yuecheng suddenly had nothing to say, this is already a problem in the inner courtyard of the Ming Mansion, everyone knows that there is no need to make a big fuss, some things are better to let the Ming Principality Mansion solve it by itself, and it will save the Ming Mansion from losing face.

After solving the affairs of the Mingguo Mansion, except for the aunt and grandmother of the Dingguo Mansion, the other ones will occasionally ask people to ask for training, and it is not a hurry, Mo Huawen finally felt that he could take a break, he was really tired for a while, it was a matter of the public, and it was a matter of the family, and he was not sure how he was passed on outside, and he only slept for a few hours a day, and he felt physically and mentally exhausted when he stopped.

"Father, the young lady from the Mingguo Mansion is going with someone? How could it be, she is a young lady from the Inner Mansion who usually doesn't see anyone, so how can she run away with someone casually, and she is not afraid that others will deceive her. Mo Xuetong propped herself up and asked strangely.

This question reminded Mo Huawen a little, he put another dumpling in his mouth and chewed it slowly, before he said: "This thing is really strange, ordinary men can't enter the inner courtyard at all, unless everyone in this kind of family has some friendships, it is possible to see their daughter." ”

"Could it be that the son of a family likes the young lady of the Mingguo Mansion, and he is afraid that the family will not agree, so he ......" Mo Xue's eyes blinked twice and asked with a smile.

This kind of family is the only one who can explain this kind of thing, the one in the Ming Mansion is a concubine, if you really like a noble person, you can't want to become the main room of someone's family, so you simply run away, but then something like that happened, if the two are connected, this is by no means a simple elopement.

"Those young ladies who are locked in the boudoir usually don't know what to think, so they don't read more women's rings. Mo Huawen understood what Mo Xuetong meant, shook his head and said, stretching out his chopsticks to pick up some dishes for Mo Xuetong.

An idea was inexplicably formed in his mind, and he felt annoying, shook his head, threw this idea out, and casually talked to Mo Xuetong about what happened at today's palace banquet.

It turned out that the eldest prince of Yan Kingdom really came here to marry, and wanted to seek a beautiful marriage and tie the good of the two countries.

This kind of thing should have been married to the daughter of the clan, the best thing is of course the princess, I don't know what Emperor Zongwen thinks, I didn't say anything explicit, I only said that let the prince of Yan choose his own beauty, for the slow treatment of Qin State, the prince of Yan didn't say anything, and thanked him on the spot.

Even if this matter is decided, a feast will be held in the palace three days later, and all ladies over the age of thirteen who are above the rank of five rank must participate in this grand event.

"Father, am I going too?" Mo Xuetong wanted to talk to her father about something happy, but she didn't know that this matter was still involved in herself, her long eyelashes flashed, and Wu Mo's eyes picked up.

"Everything, you have to participate. Mo Huawen felt a headache when he thought of this matter and Mo Xuemin's sake.

The thirteen-year-old lady of the boudoir above the fifth rank official, it is unfortunate that her three daughters are all listed, Mo Xueqiong's unobtrusive appearance, Mo Xuemin's reputation is ruined today, except for her third daughter, she really can't take it, but thinking that this is a young lady who is selected for the eldest prince, Mo Huawen is unwilling to let Mo Xuetong participate.

Looking at his daughter's beautiful eyebrows, Mo Huawen felt more and more worried, no matter how he couldn't let the eldest prince pick the pupil away, she was the only one who was a decent daughter in her own family, besides, the land of Yan Kingdom, far away from Daqin, and married into the royal family, she could only bear any grievances in the future, and there was no one to help.

Thinking that Hitomi might be chosen, Mo Huawen's heart felt uncomfortable going up and down.

His greatest wish now is to hope that Hitomi is happy, find a husband who loves her, and live happily.

"Father, if there is something, can you not participate?" Mo Xue's eyes flashed, and she grabbed the flaw in Mo Huawen's words and asked.

Seeing that his daughter was so smart, Mo Huawen became more and more resolute in his decision, no matter what, he would not let this daughter marry into Yan Kingdom no matter what.

After thinking about it, Mo Huawen asked hesitantly: "Hitomi, why don't you pretend to be sick." ”

Mo Xuetong looked at him in amazement, and suddenly burst out laughing, and then looked at his serious father, unable to raise his head with more and more laughter, he never thought that his serious and steady father would have such a childish time, and it was natural to say such a thing, without a trace of embarrassment.

was laughed at inexplicably by his daughter, Mo Huawen couldn't react for a while, and didn't understand what he was wrong.

"Father, if most of the young ladies choose this reason, if it is someone in your palace, will they agree?" Mo Xuetong smiled for a long time before taking Mo Lan's handkerchief and covering her mouth, panting.

If he is the person who hosts the banquet in the palace, he naturally does not believe in this reason for pretending to be sick, marrying Yan Guo far away, I believe that there are not many people who are willing, the prince of Yan Kingdom is not the prince, and there is Bai Yihao pressing on it, and he will be an idle prince in the future, with no real power.

With such an identity background, who is willing, this is also the reason why the emperor did not directly agree to marry the princess!

The princess is the daughter of the emperor, and she is sure that she is distressed, but who doesn't feel sorry for her own daughter, who can make the eldest prince choose, must be the beautiful daughter of the family, and there is such a daughter, marrying into the Yan Wangfu and Chu Wangfu, isn't it more beneficial than marrying Yan Guo far away!

There must be many people who have such thoughts, and Mo Huawen came to his senses and found that there would be many people who used this reason to avoid the concubines of the great prince of the Qin State in the world, and the palace must be tired of it in the end, and all of them are not allowed.

This kind of mistake, Mo Huawen would never have made it before, he could be reused by Emperor Zongwen, because he was cautious and thoughtful, when did he come up with such a superficial reason, it was really a mess of concern, and a wry smile couldn't help but show a wry smile on his lips: "Tong'er, it's for my father." ”

If this problem can be solved simply, when you leave the main hall, you won't see so many colleagues with sad faces......
