In the blink of an eye, it was early February, and Emperor Shang Jing really ordered the draft. However, if there is a girl of appropriate age who is not married and has not been married, before the end of the draft, it is not allowed to marry privately, and once it is discovered, it will be punished as a bully.

In this way, the emperor not only wants to draft, but also to expand the harem. Mu Qingge shook his head and sighed, he really didn't understand what the emperor thought. There are already so many concubines in the harem, and there are all kinds of beauties, so why should he choose again? Thinking about Queen Xue's dignified and calm face, I don't know if this time, is she a little unhappy in her heart?

Of the women of the Mu family's age, there is only one Mu Qingyao, and Mu Qi released his words a few days earlier, saying that Mu Qingyao is seriously ill and needs to recuperate for a year and a half, so naturally there is no way to participate in the draft. Therefore, this time, the Mu family was not nervous, and watched the emperor's draft from the perspective of a bystander.

Therefore, when the second prince Shang Qi came to visit Mufu, although Mu Qi was strange, he didn't feel anything wrong.

"This Taifu Mansion is also too simple...... Shang Qichao didn't talk about anything serious, and pulled Mu Qi around the Mu Mansion, "I don't deserve the status of Taifu." ”

This sounded like he was flattering himself, but Mu Qi's heart tightened when he heard it. has been by the emperor's side for so many years, Mu Qi has no other skills, and from the perspective of imperial power alone, no one knows the emperor's likes and dislikes better than him.

In a high position, the most feared thing is not to be able to do the errand that the emperor explains. is too capable, causing the emperor's suspicion. If a person has extraordinary prestige, he will be suspicious of the emperor. Those who are suspicious of the emperor will definitely not end well.

Therefore, although he didn't know whether Shang Qichao's words were intentional or unintentional, Mu Qidu said with a straight face: "The old minister can't govern the country, and the military can't go into battle to kill the enemy." Thanks to the emperor not disliking the old ministers, so that the old ministers can follow the emperor and take on some false names. It's just a deception to the world. Where is there really any prestige status? Even if there is, it is the emperor's. All the things owned by the old ministers. It's all the emperor's, and with this mansion to accommodate him, he is already grateful, how can he dare to be extravagant? ”

These words were said with extreme caution, and Shang Qichao couldn't help but be sarcastic in his heart when he heard it, Mu Qi was old in the end, and he didn't have to be back then. When Mu Qi was young, where would he see himself? I felt more and more in my heart. I've come to the right place.

"Taifu is too modest, you are the emperor, and we all worship you. Not to mention a mansion, no matter how big it is, if the Taifu does it, the father will also take care of it for you, so you don't have to worry. Shang Qichao said with a smile, smiling a little ill-intentioned.

Mu Qi listened to Shang Qichao's words, and his heart became more and more bottomless. Secretly think about yourself this time. It's true that he didn't do anything behind the emperor's back. After pondering for a while, he still said, "I don't know what the old minister did badly?" I hope that His Royal Highness can clearly tell the old minister, and the old minister will be grateful. ”

Shang Qichao did not answer. but he walked forward alone. Mu Qi was puzzled and had to follow.

Shang Qichao walked to a courtyard before he stopped and said, "Taifu is really strict, how could you do anything wrong?" ”

Mu Qi frowned, and Shang Qichao had already diverted the topic: "I heard that the fifteenth lady of your mansion is not only extremely beautiful, but also good at medical skills. is dignified and virtuous, and the third emperor brother can marry the young lady of the Mu family. It's a blessing for him. ”

Mu Qi was even more puzzled, thinking that Mu Qingge had caused some trouble. can only follow: "Being able to marry the third prince is the creation of Qingge." ”

Shang Qichao's topic was not on Mu Qingge: "Miss Qingge is the fifteenth miss, there must be many unmarried young ladies in that Mu Mansion, right?" Why is it that this time, there is not a single Miss Mufu in the list of show girls reported by the Ministry of Internal Affairs? ”

Mu Qi's face changed, but Shang Qichao stared at Mu Qi directly: "By the way, His Royal Highness seems to remember that the third young lady of Mu Mansion is of marriageable age, right?" I heard that the third lady is like a flower and jade, and she is gentle and graceful, and she is known as a virtuous name among the women in the boudoir of the capital. Why is there no name of the third lady Mu Qingyao on the list this time? ”

Mu Qi couldn't have imagined that Shang Qi Dynasty actually came for Mu Qingyao. He turned thousands of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't figure out how Mu Qingyao and Shang Qichao got on the line. The key is that this matter is the fault of the Mu family, if Shang Qi Dynasty goes to the emperor to make peace, no one knows what the consequences will be. Although Mu Qi is eighty percent sure, he feels that the emperor will not treat himself because of this matter. But in the end, there are still two layers of accidents, especially this time, the emperor's draft attitude is very resolute and cautious.

"Second Highness doesn't know anything...... Mu Qi thought of countermeasures quickly in his mind, and he didn't pause in his mouth, "Qingyao's child, I was sick a few days ago, and the doctor said it was a contagious disease. She is still sick and has not recovered, how can she go to the draft? If the disease is passed on to the emperor or the nobles in the palace, how can it be good? ”

Mu Qi paused, and said: "Qingyao, this child is a good child, but it's a pity that his luck is not good, if he can enter the palace to serve the emperor, not only she but also the glory of our Mu family." ”

Shang Qi looked at Mu Qi with a smile, with an expression of "You continue to make it up, I just don't believe it", Mu Qi was sweating in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.

After a while, Shang Qi deliberately pretended to be surprised: "It turns out that Miss Mu San is sick?" Oh, this is a big deal, since I'm here, I'm going to visit Miss Mu San, right? The Mu family has made so many contributions to our royal family, and the third lady is sick, so it is reasonable for His Royal Highness to visit. Now that we're here today, let's go and see it. ”

So saying, he went into the courtyard before him.

Only then did Mu Qi notice that the courtyard in front of him was the courtyard where Mu Qingyao lived. In my heart, it seems that Mu Qingyao not only has a connection with Shang Qichao, but this connection is not shallow.

Mu Qi's heart was very bright, this huge wooden mansion, he always thought that it was firmly in his hands. Now I suddenly realized that almost everyone in this house has something to hide from themselves.

However, Mu Qi didn't know if Shang Qichao did this, whether it was ordered by the emperor or not, and it was not good to tear his face with Shang Qichao. He could only stop Shang Qi and said, "Your Highness is expensive, how can you visit Qing Yao?" In case the illness is given to His Royal Highness, the old minister will be responsible for playing dead. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, Your Highness is strong. It's not so easy to be infected, take 10,000 steps back, even if there is really anything, I won't sue my father, it's all my own, is it okay? Shang Qi said, looking like he would not give up if he didn't see Mu Qingyao.

Mu Qi has two big heads, and he can't come out yet, so he desperately finds all kinds of reasons to stop Shang Qichao, and on this cold day, his forehead is sweating.

Shang Qichao saw that it was almost troublesome, so he took a step back and said, "That's fine, His Royal Highness won't go to see the third lady today...... However, the third lady is a role model for famous ladies in the capital, the pride of the Mu family, and the person favored by the emperor. Taifu can't be too careless about Miss San's illness. ”

Mu Qi nodded hurriedly and agreed one by one, just wanting to send Shang Qi away.

"By the way, isn't the fifteenth lady of Mufu good at Qi Huang's technique? I heard that Miss Three and Miss Fifteen have always had the best relationship, so Miss Fifteen must try her best to heal Miss Three, right? Shang Qi took two steps, then suddenly stopped again and looked back at Mu Qingyao's courtyard.

Mu Qi was really afraid of Shang Qichao, and hurriedly responded: "Naturally, Qingge is also doing his best to heal Qing Yao. ”

"Then Your Highness can rest assured." Shang Qichao said with a smile, "The medical skills of the fifteenth young lady are full of praise from the father and queen mother to the third emperor's brother and sister Rou'an, and Imperial Doctor He also personally donated the book. His Royal Highness believes that as long as the fifteenth miss is dedicated, the third miss will be safe and sound. ”

This sounds like a compliment to Mu Qingge, but the meaning of the words is that if Mu Qingyao has something, it means that Mu Qingge doesn't do his best? Mu Qi's smile was a little stiff, and he didn't immediately answer Shang Qichao's words.

"Taifu stays, His Royal Highness knows the way out of the house. There are so many things to be busy in the house, so the Taifu doesn't have to send them off. Or is the third lady's condition important, the emperor is still waiting for the third miss to recover, and he will definitely be able to catch up with the draft, right? Out of the inner courtyard, Shang Qichao stood at the door and said to Mu Qi with a smile.

The last sentence, although it is a question, is extremely affirmative.

In this way, the Shang Qi Dynasty, or the emperor's meaning, must Mu Qingyao enter the palace?

Mu Qi's heart was a little shocked, but it was not good to show himself in front of Shang Qichao, so he could only nod his head indiscriminately. In accordance with the meaning of the Shang Qi Dynasty, they will no longer send each other.

When Shang Qichao left satisfied, Mu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and his anger came up.

went directly to the old lady's house, and the Qin family was disliked by Mu Qi at first because of the matter of Mu Ling and the second room. A few days ago, because of Mu Qingyao's matter, he was reprimanded by Mu Qi. I have always been depressed, and the weather is cold, so I hide in the house every day and don't go out much.

Seeing Mu Qi coming in with an unhappy face, the temples of the relatives jumped "suddenly", and they forced themselves to help Mu Qi: "What happened?" ”

"You've lived a long time, so you can't even control so many people in the house? What is the use of having an accident at two ends in three days? Mu Qi broke Qin's hand and burst out of his mouth angrily.

Qin's face was dazed and aggrieved, and he didn't know what was going on, so he didn't dare to retaliate lightly.

Zhao's mother reacted faster, sent all the people in the house out, and guarded the door herself.

Mu Qi was still angry, and crackled and fell on the Qin family.

When Mu Qi's anger was finished, he found that the Qin clan was already in tears.

Mu Qi sighed in his heart, he couldn't bear it in the end, so he softened his tone a little bit, and told the Qin family about Shang Qichao's coming today.

Later, the anger came up again: "The people who are locked up at home, you say, why did you get involved with the second prince?" (To be continued) R580
