The last autumn of the Wude year comes early, because the maple leaves of this year are particularly red, so the colors of this autumn are particularly strong. However, the big locust trees on both sides of Suzaku Street actually re-emerged many young leaf buds in autumn. People in the past couldn't help but stop and look, slapping their palms in amazement, and people who knew some things about the world couldn't help but mutter: Isn't it because the new monarch has replaced a palace of courtiers?

Since the massacre in Xuanwumen, Li Yuan couldn't afford to fall ill, and within two months, he issued an edict to abdicate, called the emperor, and passed on to Li Shimin. Li Yuan is very old, and after this scene, I am afraid that all thoughts will be lost, so he moved out of Daxing Palace without half a minute of hesitation and moved to the place where he raised his old age, which was the Hongyi Palace personally given by him because of his disgust with Li Shimin in the dispute between the prince and the King of Qin in the past. According to the new emperor's new policy of recuperation and recuperation, open source and reduce expenditure, the palace should not be overhauled, and only the Hongyi Palace was renamed Da'an Palace, and it was settled.

All kinds of rewards and orders were sent to the quiet house in the depths of Yongxingfang almost every day. The original large mansion without a door plaque is now gloriously hung on the lintel of the "Cai Guo Mansion" written by the Holy Lord, and since then this pear wood gate has no time to be quiet. Until decades later, people who had lived in Yongxingfang talked about the ups and downs of this house, and their eyebrows were still dancing and excited.

Hundreds of red maples are clustered outside the main hall of the Lizheng Palace, and after a few cold rains, the maple leaves become more and more red.

On the low desk of the cloud head in front of Mu Qing, a scarlet lady dress was placed upright, against the backdrop of the dazzling red outside the house. showed a color that made Mu Qing very uncomfortable, just like the day when Yinghua said goodbye to her, the blood stained on the Rong robe made her eyes faintly painful.

Suddenly, I felt that this large area of purple red was like the ground of the execution ground after the execution: the bodies of the heirs of Prince Yin and the deposed King of Qi, regardless of their age, were lying on the ground. Mu Qing would never be willing to watch someone execute, but this time she sat firmly on the back side, and carefully watched the slaughter of the grass from beginning to end, thinking that the wound in her heart due to the loss of Yinghua could be vented and felt better from then on, but in the end, she didn't feel any comfort, but firmly remembered the crimson and dark purple that flowed all over the ground.

"Mrs. Gu, why bother. You and I have finally been called sisters. I don't take a big order in front of Madame, but I hope that Madame will tell me frankly, now that Duke Du has been named Duke Cai, why did Madame repeatedly refrain from Mrs. Wu's title? "The eldest grandson is sitting in the first place in the hall. Asked with a light sigh. The tone was as soft as ever. It has not changed in the slightest because of the identity of the mother in the world.

Mu Qing bowed sideways, "The queen Wan Mo said so, this is going to break the concubine's body." ”

The eldest grandson smiled warmly. Hurriedly motioned to the maid beside him to help Mu Qing up, "Madame got up and spoke, there is no one else in this hall, there is no need to hold such a big gift." ”

While speaking, the palace maid presented a glass cup, and a heavy medicinal gas wafted out, Mu Qing inhaled his nose, and looked at it carefully for a while, as if it was the smell of Hu Yuanzi, when he entered the hall, he did hear a few coughs from the eldest grandson, and she had always had a qi disease, thinking that it was because of the sudden autumn, she couldn't stand it, and the qi disease recurred.

The eldest grandson put down the glass cup, and saw that Mu Qingzhong was sitting in front of the lady of the country, she pinched the silk handkerchief and tucked the corners of her lips, looked at Mu Qing with a smile for a while, as if saying to herself: "This palace has felt that Mrs. Gu is different from others since she was a child, and as a woman, it is common sense to look forward to her husband and looking for a marquis." Once there is a seal in the body, this life will be inexhaustible, but Mrs. is not sealed, and the pass will go out, others do not know, and they will never know that Mrs. is unusual, but only when the saint does not see the merit in his eyes, he is afraid that it will make the hearts of the ministers cold. ”

Mu Qing raised his head in surprise, and when he entered the palace, he didn't see the slightest frame of the eldest grandson's body, and he only called "I" in his mouth.

"When Madame was sent back to China for the first time, the Holy Lord once said, I am afraid that it is for the sake of Yinghua, and Madame has a grudge in her heart." The eldest grandson sighed faintly, although Mu Qing couldn't look directly at her face, just listening to her sigh, he could imagine the just right amount of sadness on her delicate and beautiful face. "Mrs. is just such a sister-in-law, she must be distressed when she is sent to Hongyi Palace, and there are so many things, it is said that Mrs. is resentful, and it should be. The deceased is gone, and those who live well should not be able to live with their future future. ”

Mu Qing smiled indifferently, lowered his eyes, and replied respectfully: "This concubine is really unbearable, His Royal Highness still remembers that the concubine is ...... and Cai Guogong are actually not married. Over the years, Meng Cai Guogong has not given up, barely managing the family, and the concubine is from a low background, how can she be worthy of the Guogong? Seriously theoretical, she is just a concubine, even if she is given great courage, she does not dare to occupy the position of Mrs. Wu Guo in vain. ”

Suddenly, a maid told at the door of the palace, saying that the nurse had brought Princess Runan, Mu Qing was slightly stunned, and immediately reacted, that day I heard Yinghua mention that, only said that he was given the title of the county lord, and now that the king of Qin has ascended the throne, the prince has not yet been established, but he first changed the title of Feng Ling. Mu Qing's hand on the skirt hung down unconsciously, Li Shimin cherished it so much, and wanted to take her away, but Mrs. Wu Guo's seal was only afraid that it would not be enough.

The eldest grandson ordered someone to hold the child and send it to Mu Qing, so that she could see it, "Yinghua's life is thin, pity Feng Ling was born without a mother, the grace of the saint, in the future, Feng Ling will be raised in the Lizheng Palace, under the name of the palace, and she is a serious princess." ”

Mu Qing's body was slightly stiff, stunned, and his heart was bitter: with the current methods and heart of the eldest grandson, Feng Ling can grow into adulthood safely?

"Thank you, ma'am." Gong Zheng on the side whispered to her, and said it twice, Mu Qing couldn't drag it out, even if he didn't want to do it in his heart, he had to thank her according to her words.

After pondering in the palace for a long time, Mu Qing got up and retired, still leaving the uniform of the lady of the country in the Lizheng Palace. An inner supervisor came over, with a slightly rickety back, leading Mu Qing and leading her out on the right front side. Until he was far away from the Lizheng Palace, the inner supervisor straightened his back, looked left and right, and smiled and saluted Mu Qing. "The old slave has seen Mrs. Gu."

Mu Qing smiled slightly, and hurriedly returned the salute, "Wu Nei has passed the ceremony, and Qi Niang is ashamed." Now that the people left behind by General He Sui have scattered, Qi Niang is about to ask Ah Jian what his plans are for the future. ”

The old inner eunuch resumed his posture of bending over and hooking his back, lowered his head and laughed a few times, "The old slave is an inner eunuch, so naturally he is still serving in the palace, and he has reached this age." I don't have any family. I don't know where my relatives are, but I don't get used to going out. Besides, the old slave still stayed with the queen to serve, although he was cheap. In the end, you can still take care of some princesses of Runan. ”

Mu Qing walked forward expressionlessly. It's been a long time. Only then did he sigh slowly and lean towards him slightly, "After all, I can't help the eunuch." Qi Niang couldn't repay it. ”

The old inner eunuch shook his head slowly, "It's the old slave who can't live with Gu Niangzi, such a good little lady, it's useless to give birth to an old slave, and he couldn't deliver the news in time......" Yu Linlang, who walked in front of a row of palace forbidden inspections, stopped together, and walked forward in silence for a while, until Yu Linlang disappeared far away, and the old inner supervisor picked up Shicai's words again, "Two years ago, the old slave was infected with the epidemic, and almost never died of illness, if it weren't for Gu Niangzi's concealment, he would have been dead at this moment, and he didn't know how to repay it, thinking privately, Only by taking care of the princess here can I repay Gu Niangzi's kindness a little bit. ”

Mu Qing walked forward step by step silently, her posture and pace did not change at all, her expression and face did not change, but her eyes were full of hot tears, this is Yinghua's blessing, even if she killed too much on the battlefield, the compassion of taking off her robe was still there, raising her hand to show virtue, and finally in exchange for a blessing for her child.

Walking through a lush garden, Mu Qing suddenly paused, hesitated, and asked the inner eunuch: "Dare to ask Ah Eunuch, is there a lost palace maid next to the queen?" ”

The question was abrupt, but the old eunuch did not see a trace of surprise, and said in a calm tone: "There is indeed a little maid who has disappeared, and His Highness ordered the old slave to look for it quietly, but to no avail." ”

Mu Qing snorted coldly in his heart, naturally he couldn't find it, on the day of Yinghua's death, in addition to grief, she taught her to catch a glimpse of the eldest grandson's peeked at Li Shimin's cold eyes like pain a few times, although Yinghua did not die because of her scheme, when it was really revealed, she couldn't get rid of it, she was always a little frightened, and the panic on her face Mu Qing looked at it coldly.

She secretly told Du Ruhui about this matter, taking advantage of the chaos in the entire Hongyi Palace, and I don't know what means he used, he quietly took out the maid of the newspaper palace who Mu Qing had detained, and now she is locked in the cellar of a side courtyard of her house, and the eldest grandson has overturned the entire forbidden garden, and he can't find half a figure.

Mu Qing raised his head and looked around, there was a big pond in the garden, the air was full of water vapor, and there was a piece of reed scattered on the edge of the pool, which was originally used for landscaping.

Wu Neijian looked at Mu Qing inexplicably, followed her gaze to the fluttering reeds, and his heart moved inexplicably, and when Mu Qing turned his face, the resolute coldness in her eyes really frightened him.

"Wu Neijian can speak in front of the Lizheng Hall and the saints, and this matter has to be facilitated by the labor eunuch."

Wu Neijian solemnly dusted off the dust, "Madame just commands." ”

Mu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Find a suitable opportunity to give it to the saint, Yinghua was born in Wu County, and often frolicked among the reeds by the water when he was young. Then let the queen know that the saint misses Yinghua, because Yinghua loves reeds, so the saint often lingers among the reeds. ”

Wu Neijian tilted his head suspiciously, looked at the reed twice, and suddenly his pupils closed, and he was shocked. Mu Qing didn't urge, just looked at him quietly, and the firmness in his eyes was unquestionable. The old inner eunuch slowly calmed down, frowned and groaned for a moment, and secretly gritted his teeth, "Madame, don't worry, this matter is entrusted to the old slave, and you can't make a mistake." ”

Mu Qing nodded with peace of mind, and after walking a few more steps, she could see the Vermilion Bird Gate, she stopped and saluted goodbye to the old inner supervisor, "Ah Jian stays, these few steps Qi Niang can go by herself." Princess Runan, please also ask the eunuch to take care of it. ”

At that moment, the two said goodbye, Mu Qing walked out of the Vermilion Bird Gate, boarded the paulownia carriage rewarded by the new monarch, and left with the eye-catching emblem of the Duke of Cai's mansion. No one dared to stop the city gate for inspection, and the chariots and riders on the road gave way to the main road.

Ah Liu in the car looked at her empty hands to get the car, and disappeared the crimson purple dark robe she was holding before entering the palace, and sighed softly, in the end, she resigned the title of Mrs. Wu Guo.

"What is it that is good, but what is it that hurts?" Mu Qing lowered the curtains on the window panes of the car wall to block the various eyes that came from all the way.

Ah Liu shook his head, he didn't want to say more, he raised his eyes to meet Mu Qing's slightly gloomy face, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but say, "If you want me to say, this letter shouldn't be shirked." Qi Niang, think about yourself, which prince is like our family's Ah Lang, who only guards the wife's room in the main house, and there are groups of beautiful concubines in the backyard, even if you don't accept it, the saint will also give the palace people. Besides, over the years, you and Ah Lang have not actually entered into a marriage match, if outsiders may know that Cai Guo's fair house is empty, it will be worth it. ”

Ah Liu is more and more anxious the more he talked, and simply told all the worries of the day, "The saint has always relied on Ah Lang, and now he has the title of the Duke of the country, and he leads the real power of the military department, and he is more and more proud. It is Ah Lang's strong affection, and he pushes it away, but it is difficult to guarantee the royal marriage. If one day the saint remembers to make Ah Lang more tight, and really marry a princess, he can't push it, how can this be good? ”

"If Qi Niang is willing to accept the title of Mrs. Wu Guo, she is also the lady of the country given by the emperor, first, she will marry Ah Lang on the way to the river, and second, if there is really a day when the princess comes to the door, she will still live a good life, and no one dares to bully and despise her."

Mu Qing's heart was shocked, she had no doubt about Du Ruhui's affection for her, but she didn't figure out this step in the royal family's thoughts, but taught Ah Liu to think about it first. But she couldn't bear this edict, one was expecting to be able to exchange this grace for Feng Ling to leave the palace, and the other was that she never wanted to accompany the emperor's family often, and she was dragged down by the edict.

When she stayed for a while, she laughed helplessly, "Your mind has grown over the years, and the rules and regulations are clear, and every sentence is reasonable, and you should not be underestimated in the future." ”

Seeing that she still had the heart to laugh, Ah Liu was even more eager, "At this time, I still care about laughing, seeing that you are already in the year of standing this year, if you don't think about yourself, you should plan for Shiro no matter what." ”

"Shiro is still young. I am a child like him, so I will naturally think more for him, but I am not in a hurry. Mu Qing dealt with it indiscriminately, and suddenly remembered something, just as he was able to stop Ah Liu's reluctant persuasion, so he changed his words sharply and said: "Today, I heard that the saint will be crowned Ah Yue, and the name will probably not be high, and her child may be to be crowned King Xu." After that, her mother and son will move to the fiefdom of Xuzhou, where they will be given 700 households, so that they can live without worries about food and clothing, and it is always good to be able to stay away from the chaos of the court and live without worrying about food and clothing......"

Ah Liu really didn't turn his thoughts, his eyes were shining, and he chanted the Buddha twice, "Ah Yue has boiled it out in the end." (To be continued.) )
