Chapter 1198
"Mu Ran, you also have to take good care of yourself. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info" Zeng's voice was already full of choked throats, but when she looked at Mu Ran's shallow eyebrows, she held back the tears that burst out of her eyes, and barely squeezed out a smile, but her eyes were infinitely loving.
Early the next morning, Mu Ran left with Lin Hui, she didn't know at that time, she had never seen the Lin family again, and it seemed that her future had changed dramatically since then.
At the same time, Mu Ran never thought that she would meet Su Yu again, let alone that Lin Hui would be the foreshadowing of her falling into the abyss of no return in the future, although there was nothing wrong with this matter for Lin Hui.
Small bridges, flowing water, rockery pavilions, only a cobblestone-paved stone path leads straight to the depths of the house. Mu Ran was frowning deeply at this time, looking at the rice paper spread on the desk, but there was no handwriting on the paper, and the pen in her hand had not fallen for a long time, and her mind was already blank.
The maid was alone, looking at Mu Ran's brows, a little worried. "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Mu Ran sighed after frowning, "Actually, it's fine... It's justβ" Mu Ran wanted to speak and stopped.
The maid seemed to be unbearable, and persuaded: "Miss, you shouldn't care about the affairs of the third prince. If the lord knows, he will definitely blame the young lady..."
Mu Ran doesn't know! It's just that... The body can't help itself, the heart can't help itself.
"Where is the third prince now?" Mu Ran guessed that the maid might know Lin Hui's whereabouts.
"Miss..."The maid was a little embarrassed, and didn't know whether to tell Miss the whereabouts of the third prince.
"What? Feeling embarrassed? "Mu Ran didn't know what the maid was thinking.
"Miss, slave... The slave maid was worried, worried that the emperor would be unfavorable to the young lady. The maid was actually very conflicted.
"Why do you think so?" Mu Ran felt that the maid seemed to know a lot more than herself.
"The slave is just worrying."
While sighing, Mu Ran remembered today's lantern festival in Naigu Suzhou City, a rare liveliness on the banks of Suzhou Creek. Presumably, the emperor will invite the relatives and nobles in the city to enjoy it. Thinking of this, Mu Ran was inexplicably excited. It seems that this matter is not unsolvable?!γ
The maid looked at the young lady with unusual joy, but there was a little worry in her heart...
Mu Ran neatly changed into a man's outfit hidden at the bottom of the box, and the scarf moved with his hair. Looking at his flawless self in the mirror, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, applauding what he was about to do. Lin Hui, I promise you a bright future, wait for me!.
Zhaoyang Palace, at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty poet Tortoise Meng's residence, later became the private property of the Murong family. On weekdays, they unanimously thank the outside world, but today it is surprisingly crowded, and I want to have distinguished guests.
Mu Ran hid in the backlight, looking at the busy servants, thinking that everyone was busy, and there should be no time to take care of others. In this way, it is not impossible for this matter to succeed. The maid should have already brought the third prince into the garden, right? It's better to go to the meeting early to avoid long nights and dreams.
That was the first time Mu Ran had met Lu Chuan here, and her heart sank, and she didn't understand how she had met him at this time.
Study in the inner hall.
Mu Zhenfeng looked deeply at the man in the main seat, and was about to kneel down to perform the courtesy of the monarch and minister, but was hurriedly helped up by the man. "Father-in-law doesn't need to be polite, you and I are sons-in-law, so you don't have to see each other like this."
Mu Zhenfeng showed a relieved smile on his face, but he still knelt down and asked Jun An: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a thousand years old!" Your Highness, Hail Jin'an! β
"Please get up, please get up!" Lu Chuan hurriedly helped Mu Zhenfeng up, and joked: "My father-in-law is always so polite, so that my son-in-law can't explain to the crown princess...".
"Your Highness is the prince of my dynasty, and there is a difference between the monarch and the minister. Although the Murong family has always been loved by His Royal Highness, and has not abandoned the little girl as a concubine, he should always thank God for his grace and never forget to devote himself to retribution! Etiquette is indispensable! Mu Zhenfeng's words must have been deep again.
Lu Chuan really had no choice but to give up on him. "Father-in-law, this king was actually ordered to inspect Jiangnan, and by the way, he brought the gift of the crown princess to his father-in-law."
"It's hard for the princess to still think about the old man..."Mu Zhenfeng couldn't help but sigh a little. I wonder how many days His Highness will stay in Yangzhou? β
"This time, I have official business, so naturally I can't stay for a long time, so I will leave on three or five days." Lu Chuan replied truthfully. "I wonder if my father-in-law is asking for a reason?"
"Humble Jing is a little anxious, knowing that she will not have a chance to meet, she wants to bring some homely items to the princess, and also let the princess have a thought." Mu Zhenfeng can also understand his wife's longing for his daughter. It's a pity that he is a man and can't be revealed as easily as a woman.
"The father-in-law and mother-in-law's intentions, this king naturally understands, and he is willing to fulfill the wishes of the second elder." Lu Chuan thought for a while and replied: "This king will stay for a few more days." βγ
Mu Zhenfeng was very grateful.
Yi Yuxuan.
Mu Zhenfeng's residence was dark in Yiyuxuan. Looks like we'll be talking late into the night today, right?
Mu Ran knocked lightly on the door of Yuxuan's room, and after the silence, there was a faint sound of clothes rubbing and moving. The maid opened the door from the room, and Mu Ran quickly slipped in.
"What about people?" Mu Ran wanted to confirm that the third prince had really mixed in.
"Inside," the maid pointed with her chin to the place where the bed curtain had covered. Miss, are we really going to do this? β
"Of course!" Mu Ran replied firmly. "If you don't do this, will you watch him be killed by the emperor?"
Mu Ran took out a packet of powdered objects from his bosom and poured it into the neatly arranged teapot on the table. If you want to come to Mu Daren after drinking, tea is a must, right? After putting it down, he leaned over and lifted the curtain. I saw the third prince lying peacefully on the bed, as if he was asleep, so he said to himself: "Third prince, that's all I can do for you... How to grasp it in the future, see your own creation! Looking back again, Mu Ran and the maid left secretly.
The night is as deep as water. Mu Zhenfeng saw off the guests, resigned from the prince, and dragged his heavy legs to Yi Yuxuan a little tiredly.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was ordered to inspect Jiangnan, I don't know if it is good or bad for the Murong family?" Mu Zhenfeng was a little worried, but he was confident that the Murong family would be extremely prosperous for a while, and he would not be dragged down by anyone. When I think about it, I feel relieved.
Busy dealing with so many dignitaries and nobles, he is naturally physically and mentally exhausted. I thought of the third prince again, and I didn't know where to go, and I felt irritable again. At a young age, she has opinions, but such a disobedient girl makes people feel uncomfortable. Although he owes Lao Qi a little bit to this girl, the three generations of loyal servants of the Lao Qi family have served the Murong family conscientiously, and they can't help but understand Lao Qi. Lao Qi's wife died in childbirth, and the mother and son were not saved, so you can't let the old Qi family die, right?
"Eh..."Mu Zhenfeng sighed and pushed the door in. Rest in the garden today, and if Your Highness summons you tomorrow, it will be easy to walk. "It was a little dark inside, but luckily there was a little moonlight that let in so that people didn't get hindered in their movements. I didn't know where to put it, so I simply didn't light it.
He poked his hand into the teapot on the table, revealing the right temperature. It looks like the next person has just come to refill the tea. Mu Zhenfeng poured out a cup by himself and drank it all, and then poured another cup before drinking it slowly. I drank a little more today, and I was already thirsty, but the things I did to socialize overshadowed my thirst. Now it's finally time to take a break and drink a few glasses of water...
Looking at the moonlight outside with a silver light, I can't help but feel as calm as water. I think that although I am nearly forty years old, at least I am also famous. Family affairs and official affairs are quite smooth. Although they have no children, their daughters are also competitive. Although the eldest daughter was not a concubine, she was accepted as the crown princess. The second daughter died at the age of three, but at least Mu Ran Chenghuan was on her knees. When I think of Mu Ran, I can't help but think of my only sister again. Su Su has been staying at home for 15 years, and he locks himself in the garden every day, and he is really worried that one day he will do something stupid. Thinking of this, Mu Zhenfeng felt that he should let Mu Ran live in the park to accompany her aunt recently.
There are thousands of thoughts, and sudden fatigue strikes. Mu Zhenfeng thought that he was really tired, so he moved to the bed.
"Why hasn't the bed curtain hung up?" Mu Zhenfeng thought that it must be the carelessness of the maids. So he went to bed with his own clothes. Approaching the bed, the tiredness was even stronger, the steps were slightly staggering, the eyes were a little foggy, and there was an obvious restlessness in the bottom of the heart. The big hand lifted the curtain of the bed, and fell asleep.
Something seems wrong? There was a sound of peaceful breathing beside him... When I reached out, I saw a warm living person lying next to him. Mu Zhenfeng was shocked and remembered to take a look at it, but he was drowsy powerlessly, and could only tell himself: It must have been designed!
The crisp sound of birds in the early morning is intended to wake up early to enjoy this rare beauty. The flowers and trees in the Humble Administrator's Garden are different, the small bridges and flowing water are pleasant, and the lakes and mountains are colorful. Lu Chuan strolls along the cobblestone path by the artificial lake and enjoys the wonderful scenery unique to the south of the Yangtze River.
"If you say that the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is good, it can't reach the Zhaoyang Palace." Lu Chuan meant something.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Jiang Liuting, who was with him, understood a little but didn't quite understand the meaning of his master.
"What? I really don't understand? Or is it deliberately playing dumb? Lu Chuan deliberately embarrassed him.
"Your Highness, the slave is stupid, I really don't know!" Jiang Liuting was a little embarrassed.
"You really can't see that? This lake and mountains, this rockery pavilion, this strange flowers and plants, which do not need silver, but also have to be heavy gold! Lu Chuan smiled meaningfully: "Where did this silver come from?" Although the Murong clan is an imperial prince, after all, there is no official or position, and there is nowhere to search, right? β
"What do you mean, Your Highness?"
"What does the king mean?" Lu Chuan suddenly changed his attitude: "It's not interesting." The Murong clan is just capable. Lu Chuan added in his heart: It's just that the rich are rivaling the country.
Lu Chuan walked among the lakes and mountains, and saw the maids and grandmothers on the opposite side shuttling through the garden with toiletries in their hands, and the little maids had started a day's sprinkling and cleaning. It seems that Mu Zhenfeng should have stayed in the park yesterday.
Zhaoyang Hall leans on the plum garden.
Outside the room, the maids who were responsible for washing stood in a row, and the housekeeper was slightly suspicious, frowning slightly, guessing the abnormality of today's master. I often stay in the garden on weekdays, but the owner always gets up early, why is the sun rising a little today, and there is no movement? Could it be that I drank a few more glasses at the banquet yesterday?
Mu Zhenfeng has never been so difficult to speak, and he has reached the point of being in a dilemma. Thinking that he is famous in the south of the Yangtze River and is a royal prince, when did he have such a deflated time? It's not that the affair with the maid is embarrassing, but that he personally promised the maid to Lao Qi.
Only Mu Ran was unusual, calm and self-controlled, approached the woman beside Mu Zhenfeng, sat down along the side of the bed, and caressed the woman's back, as if to comfort and comfort her. The woman raised her eyes to meet Mu Ran's gaze, and Mu Ran returned her a "An" look. The woman hurriedly lowered her head as if she didn't know.
Mu Ran asked what to do.
"What to do?!" Mu Zhenfeng was slightly angry: "Then you can tell me how to deal with it!" As he spoke, Mu Zhenfeng couldn't help but start a fire. I'd like you to tell me who allowed her in! Who borrowed her courage to climb into the master's bed? β
Listening to these slightly hurtful words, the woman is really sad now. It's right that she loves the master, it's true that she doesn't want to marry Uncle Qi! So what's wrong with her? What's wrong? "Master, you don't have to be angry, you don't need to worry, the woman can do whatever the master does! Honglian knew that after a catastrophe, the Mu Mansion could no longer tolerate women. Red Lotus is willing..."Several choked up so that the woman couldn't express herself smoothly, and she didn't know how to continue.
Mu Ran was slightly stupid, but he didn't dare to say more, for fear that he would come out with his feet exposed, which would not be good.
The four of them were speechless, only the sound of breathing.
Mu Ran raised his eyes and looked at Mu Zhenfeng slightly, and saw that he was just looking out the window, his eyes were far away.
The woman didn't dare to raise her head, so she lowered her head. Mu Ran took off his cloak and draped it on the woman, and patted the woman's back comfortingly.
The four of them were speechless, and suddenly a small servant came to report to the distinguished guests of the Welcome Pavilion and asked where Mu Zhenfeng was. As soon as Mu Zhenfeng heard that His Royal Highness was looking for him, he got up and went with the little servant.
Mu Zhenfeng is the emperor's person, Mu Ran thought that if he could have any scandal, he would definitely be greatly discounted in the court, and it would be a good thing for Lin Hui.
But she didn't want to, she was still thinking like this, someone was one step ahead of her and designed Mu Zhenfeng.
This girl called Red Lotus, Mu Ran only looked at her for the first time, and knew that she was not so simple, especially when she looked at Red Lotus with a pair of bewitching eyebrows, and later she knew that Red Lotus was actually Lu Chuan's person.
With Lu Chuan's help, things seem to be much easier, but Mu Ran doesn't know that he is still too simple.
However, Mu Ran didn't understand why Lu Chuan suddenly became a dignified prince.
It's just that there were still a lot of tricky things at that time.
Mu Ran returned to Yimei Garden, but forgot to ask Mu Zhenfeng to approve himself to accompany him more in the garden; Lin Hui for a few days. I don't have the heart to worry about it now. The most important thing now is how to place the red lotus.
"Mu Rong, what should Red Lotus do in the future?" Mu Ran put down the teacup and asked Gu Zi about Mu Rong, who was silent about the tea, Mu Zhenfeng's sister.
"Then Mu Ran, what do you have a good idea?" Murong Su asked idly.
"Me? How do I know this! I just care about Honglian, and I'm afraid that she will suffer. Mu Ran pretended to answer lightly.
"Afraid that Red Lotus will suffer?" Murong Su smiled deeply.
Mu Ran suddenly became alert: "Master Mu is a man, and this matter must be a woman's worst!" Master Mu made a bargain. Mu Ran was beating the drum in his heart, while thinking about how to make his words round, so that Mu Rong would not doubt him. (To be continued.) )
