Chapter 173: The Battle of the Palace Banquet II
readx;
Mu Xiang has been putting up with her all along, letting her, not wanting to worry about Mu Fengting, there are too many people to guard against today, and she has no time to take care of Mu Fengting, and she also knows that the queen is the mastermind, just look at how quickly she hides. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
And if Queen Dou wants to harm her, it must be impossible for her to act alone, so among these people, it is Mu Yuelan who may be instructed by the queen.
And Mu Fengting is just an arrow target pushed out by the queen.
Fighting again, Mu Xiang just looked at Mu Fengting quietly, watching her sit there noble and dignified, wearing a gorgeous, valuable costume, under the heavy wrapping, although she looked dignified, but she was very old-fashioned, she was dressed up in an old-fashioned manner, otherwise how could she suppress the harem, a concubine with a lower rank than her1
This time, the female officer behind Mu Fengting, I don't know if she got Mu Fengting's hint, or for the sake of protecting the lord, she stood up and glared angrily at Mu Xiang.
"Princess Xiang has such a big score, my mother has talked to you several times, but you ignored it, and committed the following crimes, this is a capital crime!"
Mu Fengting listened to this admonition very comfortably, although he also knew that he was just scaring and scaring her, how could he really cure Mu Xiang's capital crime, what she charged back was her prestige.
But to the ears of others, it seems to have become a joke.
Tang Yan and Tang Xin used wine glasses as a cover to hide the smile on the corner of their mouths. People don't take you seriously at all, but you have to tear off your face and rush to paste it, how can you not make people laugh!
Mu Qingyang's face was very ugly, and hitting Mu Fengting in the face was equivalent to hitting him in the face.
Tang Mo only drank alcohol, did not talk to anyone, and did not look at anyone, as if he was isolated from the world.
As for Dou Hanyan and the other young ladies, they all looked like they were watching a show.
At this time, the dancing girl of the prince's mansion finished dancing and retreated.
Shangguan Yun'er didn't squeak anymore this time, and ate her own food calmly, but there was one thing, like Mu Xiang, she just didn't touch the puffer fish on the table.
The hall suddenly fell silent, Mu Xiang slowly picked up the red hair, stroked its hair, and let out a long sigh, "Eating a meal is not peaceful, I knew that the palace banquet was like this, don't come!" ”
With a long sigh, Mu Fengting, who sighed straightly, was almost annoyed and angry, but only Tang Yan smiled deeply.
Questioned before, the palace maid who scolded her had eaten a big deflated, she couldn't go up or down, she stood there in embarrassment, neither did she enter, nor did she retreat, "What does Princess Xiang mean by this, is it wrong for the queen to invite you to the banquet?" Do you think your status is higher than that of the queen? ”
Although she is the palace maid of Concubine Xian, she will not be stupid, move Concubine Xian, if she wants to move, she will also move the queen, and if she wants to pull the hatred value, she has to pull it from the queen and leave Concubine Xian clean.
Mu Xiang looked at the palace maid lightly, and her red lips opened slightly, "You said it, but I didn't say it." ”
Some people are inexplicable, some people can't understand her words, but those who understand are all secretly having fun on the side.
Mu Fengting has been in the harem for a long time, how can he not understand.
She glared fiercely at the palace maid behind her and told her to shut up. There is not enough success, and there are more failures, but people have caught the handle, fool!
Tang Yan gasped and chuckled, "The palace maid beside Concubine Xian is amazing!" ”
He said half a sentence and hid half a sentence, and the meaning of it was understandable to everyone.
Mu Fengting straightened his posture, picked his chin, hooked his lips and smiled, "The slave is the protector of the master's heart, why should the four princes care, people who don't know, still think that you are complaining about Princess Xiang!" ”
The crowd was shocked. Is this concubine in the water? is still deliberately trying to put someone to death, but the most critical question is that the king of Xiang is not there, you will poke such a question, do you want people to pass the news to the king of Xiang, and you will reap the benefits of the fisherman?
Dou Hanyan couldn't listen to it anymore, she didn't allow the man she admired to have a relationship with a married woman.
"In fact, in the final analysis, it is Princess Xiang who has lost her etiquette, and the palace maid around Concubine Xian Niangniang is the same, she is a slave, on this occasion, how can she speak, Concubine Xian Niangniang should be severely punished, otherwise it will mess up the law and law, and it will lose the face of the emperor, and the four princes are princes, worried about the royal family, what is wrong?"
She is not afraid of Concubine Xian, first, she is the queen's niece, no matter when and where, she has to stand on the queen's side. And Concubine Xian's power in the palace is second only to the queen, both public and private, Dou Hanyan has to take a stand, because she knows that although the queen is not here, everything in the former palace can't escape her eyes.
One more thing, she doesn't allow it, someone will have Tang Yan and Mu Xiang involved, how can a rough woman be compared with the pride of the sky.
In fact, the queen doesn't mind her getting closer to Tang Yan, first, Tang Hao ascends the throne, and needs more supporters and more assistants.
If Tang Yan can be used by them, it will naturally be of great benefit, if not, installing a daughter of the Dou family in his palace is both a secret agent and an inevitable accomplice.
As soon as Tang Yan heard Dou Hanyan speak for himself, he lowered his head again and stopped talking.
"Smack!"
Mu Xiang threw away the chopsticks he had just picked up, and the abrupt sound sounded particularly harsh in the huge palace.
She said slowly: "A good palace banquet, do you have to be entangled in a palace maid?" Yan Zhong, why are you still standing stupidly, why don't you hurry up and deal with that annoying thing! ”
"Yes!" Yan Zhong's figure did not move, and he didn't know when there were more pairs of chopsticks in his hands, and when everyone hadn't woken up, they only heard the palace maid standing beside Concubine Xian scream.
She clutched her throat, her eyes widening in disbelief, and blood slowly flowed from the fingers she clutched her throat.
Within three seconds, the maid's body fell limply, and she was already dead of exhaustion.
Mu Fengting grabbed the back of the chair fiercely, she never expected that this woman would be bold enough to dare to kill people at the palace banquet.
For Mu Fengting, who had never encountered this situation, he was panicked for a while, and he didn't know how to take it.
Not only Mu Fengting panicked, but also the many young ladies and princesses below were also panicked, and even worse, they knocked over the wine glass and knocked off the dishes.
Tang Mo said sharply: "What are you panicking about, it's just that a palace maid has died, come here, move the body of that cheap maid out, so as not to stain your eyes, and then put the wine banquet again, where is the dancing girl?" Call them all! ”
From the first moment he stepped into the hall, Tang Mo had not spoken, and he had always been his invisible person, and he didn't know how to open his mouth.
Looking at the impatience on his face, his tightly locked sword eyebrows, and the coexistence of arrogance and dignity, it always makes people feel that he is different from before, no longer indisputable with the world, and no longer an idle person who only loves to make money and is not for the government.
Tang Yan and Tang Xin looked at him at the same time, and when they received the sight of the two, Tang Mo pursed his lips, drank a glass of wine fiercely, and no longer looked at anyone.
With Tang Mo's order, the corpse of the dead man, in front of everyone, was dragged out, and the blood stains followed the dragged route to the gate of the palace.
However, soon there were servant eunuchs, holding rags, kneeling to wipe the blood stains on the ground clean, and lighting sandalwood to smoke away the blood.
Dou Hanyan covered his nose lightly and complained unhappily: "This Princess Xiang is really ruthless, a good person, just because she offended her, she was killed, and Princess Xiang's courage is also great!" ”
Tang Yan only drank, didn't answer her words, and ignored her, which would have forgotten to cough.
Mu Xiang knew Dou Hanyan's hostility towards her early on, and she also knew that Dou Hanyan was sneering and crazy in the open.
This woman, her mouth is so owed, if she doesn't give her some back, won't she be able to stop her talking?
"Compared to the guts, where can I compare to the county lord Dou, before I got out of the cabinet, I was about to squeeze a table with the four princes, dare to ask the two, when will I do a happy event, if you want to do it, don't forget to give me a post, and Mrs. Ben will definitely give a big gift at that time, after all...... Keep the clouds open and see the moon, this kind of marriage is really rare! ”
She said that she almost pointed to Dou Hanyan's nose, saying that she rubbed against the four princes of others, her skin was thick enough, and she was shameless enough, just like her, she was embarrassed to say that others, it was really not ordinary thick!
As soon as these words came out, Dou Hanyan was angry and ashamed, and he was about to cry, sitting there, he felt that he had become the laughing stock of everyone. Especially the women who were about the same age as her were about to laugh off their big teeth.
She moved to the side without a trace, and said aggrievedly: "The seats are all set by the eunuchs, maybe the eunuchs accidentally put my position wrong." ”
It is estimated that few people believe this, and Qian Dong'er is the most unbelieving one of them.
"The minions are blind, the county lord's eyes are fine, besides, there are still many empty places in this hall, if it is really wrong, let the minions move over!"
Zhou Manqing breathed out from the same nostrils as her, and after Tie Dong'er finished speaking with her front foot, she said with her back foot: "Where the men sit, I won't sit there anyway, it's immoral!" ”
It's really abrupt, the seats for men and women are separated.
There was only Dou Hanyan alone, sitting alone among several men.
This scene is not only seen by Mu Xiang, who can't see it?
It's just that they're embarrassed to say it, and there are few like her, picking a big thorn.
Mu Fengting naturally couldn't stand by and watch, although Dou Hanyan was not her person, but at the moment, they were also in the same camp when it came to dealing with Mu Xiang.
"It's all nonsense, it's just a seat, the palace let the county lord sit there, isn't the fourth prince weak? There are many people around you who are attentive to take care of it, why not, besides, the two of them, talented and beautiful, even if they have mutual affection, it is not impossible, why care, watch singing and dancing! ”
Tang Mo just ordered the new dancing girl to come up, and the dance was still the same set of movements, nothing new, but because of the will of the virtuous concubine, he had to watch it.
Behind the palace gate connected to the inner hall, there is always a pair of eyes, staring at the things that are happening in front of them.
When the instrumental music sounded, the eyes suddenly disappeared from behind the temple door.
"The queen mother, the food has not been moved," the chief eunuch knelt outside a dormitory to report, but did not dare to push the door in.
In the middle of the sound, a leisurely voice came from the hall, "Go and explore again, and tell the palace maids to give them a taste of the newly brewed wine in the palace, just say that it is appreciated by the emperor, and be sure to let each of them drink a little." ”
The chief eunuch seemed to be a little embarrassed, "Niangniang, it's okay for others to say, but this princess Xiang, if she refuses to drink, I'm afraid no one can force it." ”
"Hmph, no matter how hard her mouth is and how straight her waist is, do you still dare to resist the decree? Hurry up! Empress Dou's voice was full of impatience.
"Yes, the slave knows, so let's do it!" The eunuch didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly took the order and retreated.
After the eunuch left, Empress Dou suddenly had more hands on her waist, and the man's voice sounded close to her neck.
"Why should Niangniang be angry about irrelevant things, anyway, she can't leave this island today, can she hide from the first year of junior high school, and can she hide from fifteen?"
Queen Dou slapped his hand away, "It's all a bunch of useless things, you can't even do a little thing, let you go to check Ning'er's matter, how is the investigation, a good princess, how can you say that it is gone, she is my daughter, she wants to see people in life, and she wants to see corpses in death, so I have to find it!" ”
In the past few days, for Tang Ning's business, Queen Dou has aged a lot, and there are several more wrinkles on her face.
She didn't buy it, Mu Kun was too lazy to be perfunctory, walked to the side alone, and took a cup of tea, "The princess's business, Wechen will do her best, maybe the princess is just naughty and playful for a while, and when she has played enough and made enough trouble, she will naturally come back, the most important thing for the mother at the moment is to think about how to eradicate the people on the outside, Wechen heard that the emperor has been more and more fond of the six princes recently, the four princes and the six princes are born to the same mother, the four princes have been seriously ill for a long time, knowing that they will not live long, they will definitely spare no effort to push the six princes to the throne, Now that they are close to King Xiang's Mansion, Weichen also heard that Princess Xiang has a younger sister who is about the same age as the six princes......"
In the latter words, there is no need for him to say, the queen has already guessed, "You mean, the two of them intend to marry, how is this possible, isn't that girl's sister also a little village girl?" With such a lowly status, how could the emperor agree! ”
Compared with the queen's excitement, Mu Kun smiled lightly, the real old treacherous and cunning, "The emperor will agree, just an identity, if you want to solve it, just raise your hands, find someone at random, recognize it as a righteous daughter, or, please make a decree, seal a princess of the county, it's not a matter of the emperor's words, what's so difficult." ”
The queen suddenly lost her strength and sat down. If the future situation is really as Mu Kun said, this pair of sisters, she must be eliminated.
Then again, in fact, Tang Yan didn't have this idea at first.
First, Caiyun is too young, and according to Mu Xiang's sister's heartfelt temper, she must be unwilling.
Second, he really didn't think about it at all, until he understood Tang Xin's thoughts, and then he was enlightened and suddenly woke up. I don't know how to take a good shortcut, I'm really stupid.
The music of the front hall has reached the * part.
After the song, dozens of palace maids came in with trays again, and someone whispered a few words in Concubine Xian's ear, Concubine Xian nodded, and said to everyone: "This is the emperor's personal reward to be brewed by immortals, I heard that it is still from Princess Xiang's hometown, such a fine wine, Princess Xiang has to taste it!" ”
Mu Xiang and Hongye glanced at each other, a plan failed, and another plan, not to mention that she is now pregnant, she should not drink, even if she can drink, she will not touch, today she has made up her mind, not to touch any food here, anyway, when she was in the carriage, she also ate a lot of snacks, and now she is not hungry.
"You're pregnant, I'll drink this wine for you," the maidservant behind Momiji took the cup in front of her. The words were spoken to her, and the voice was so small that only the two of them could hear it.
Mu Xiang smiled, "Thank you, sister, you should drink less, and when our restaurant opens, I will invite you to drink our own wine." ”
"Oh? Do you still make wine? I don't know what kind of wine is brewed, is it white wine or rice wine? ”
"No, isn't it fashionable to make wine with petals now? Let's follow suit, my cake shop, every day to buy flower petals, if you harvest more, you can use it to make wine, and in the spring, the peaches are born, or make some peach wine, although I haven't tried it, but I think it's feasible, and when our clothing business is regular, this thing, you can try to do it. ”
Momiji nodded, "That's what you said, it's just that your belly ......"
When people are pregnant with a baby, they have to raise the baby at home, but she has to go around with a baby.
"What's wrong with my stomach? I'm not so delicate, besides, my baby, the same skin as me, don't worry, such a long journey, bumpy back, it was stunned that there was nothing at all, and now even the reaction to morning sickness is gone, if it weren't for Lang Zhong's accurate prediction, I still suspect that it was a fake pregnancy! ”
Hongye threw a roll of his eyes at her, "What are you talking about, you've been here for almost two months, and you can't fake it if you want to, but everyone's reaction to conceiving a baby is different, I will be pregnant with a female doll, and each reaction is different, and the later one, they all feel that it is a male baby, but after being born, it is not a female baby!" ”
"What's wrong with the girl, the girl is also up for half a day, you see, the shops we opened, the priority hires are all women, they can not only do physical work, if they are willing to learn and use their brains, it is not a problem to be in charge, I heard that I understand, the school is about to open, I am ready to send Caiyun and Mu Lang to the school!"
Now that she is pregnant with a baby, the trouble in the capital has not been solved, and she is afraid that she will not be able to go back. She had already repaired a book, and ordered someone to send a letter to Yuhe Village, so that Wang Xi and Lin Changzhuan could take care of the business of the sausage workshop.
Just after the Spring Festival, the business of the sausage workshop must be busy.
She also heard recently that Tang Moxin's factory also started a sausage and preserved egg business, but the name was different, and the things he produced were not called sausages, but enema.
But no matter what he called it, he couldn't escape the suspicion of plagiarism. Because of this, when Tang Mo faced her, the more he didn't dare to look her eyes, after all, it was a loss!
Mu Fengting saw that Mu Xiang refused to drink, and the old hatred was added to the old hatred, although he could still maintain a far-fetched smile on the surface, but in his heart, he had already wanted to eat her alive, "Princess Xiang has made up her mind today, she will not eat or drink, she will not put the queen in her eyes, and she will not put the emperor in her eyes, she is really bold!" ”
Mu Xiang was thinking about business matters, and was named by her unexpectedly, she was so annoyed, "Concubine Xian Niangniang is really strange, what do you always look at me?" People who don't know still think that you are deliberately looking for my fault, today I am not feeling well, and it is already good to sit here reluctantly, you still have to greet me with a smile, I want to ask, what do you want to do? ”
Concubine Xian almost choked to death by her, and when she slapped the table, the dishes on the table shook and rattled, "Bold, don't forget, in the end, you are also a courtier's wife, this palace is the emperor's concubine, you have no respect and humility, disregard the national law and family rules, come to someone, pull Princess Xiang down, according to the palace rules, replay the twenty boards!" ”
Everyone in the hall was in an uproar, and said for a long time that this would finally be the real thing.
All the female dependents didn't dare to intervene, they couldn't hide, how could they intercede for that woman.
Mu Yuelan was worried that she couldn't find an opportunity, and when she saw Concubine Xian starting, she immediately stood up and ordered the Imperial Forest Army outside the palace, "Didn't you hear Concubine Xian's words?" What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you pull her down and be tortured! ”
Dou Hanyan threw Mu Yuelan an idiot look, eager for quick success, punishment, how can he be in a hurry. Sure enough, the wisdom of the queen and the concubines is not half a star.
Hongye was a little anxious, in front of so many people, Concubine Xian gave an order, this is the crime of Mu Xiang, even if Mu Xiang is innocent, but he can't show Concubine Xian's face in front of everyone, that will definitely fall, and he will be charged with the crime.
"Concubine Xian Niangniang is angry, the palace banquet is a place of happy gathering, it is not appropriate to be angry, let alone tortured, please think twice!"
Mu Fengting has made up her mind, she has to cure Mu Xiang's crime, even if she can't really beat her, it's good to force her to bow her head and confess her guilt, but she doesn't want Momiji to bow her head, it's useless at all.
The guards standing outside the palace came in, but when they heard that the person to be arrested was Princess Xiang, they hesitated and did not dare to step forward.
Seeing that the guards did not move, she was furious, "What are you doing in a daze?" Didn't you listen to what Motonomiya said? In the end, you are the emperor's personal soldiers, or his personal soldiers of the Xiangwang Mansion! ”
Mrs. Fan's crutches rattled on the ground, "Okay, what's the noise, a good palace banquet, do you have to find fault?" Concubine Xian, it's just a few dishes, a few pots of wine, whether you eat or not, whether you drink or not, it's all up to everyone, you have to force others to eat, is it you bullying others, or is Princess Xiang guilty of it? It's enough, I knew it was like this, and I didn't say anything about the old body! ”
She was a straight-tempered person, and when she finished scolding, she got up and was about to leave.
Concubine Xian knew that she was also a temper tantrum, and she had always been taboo about her prestige, where would she have thought that she didn't anger Mu Xiang, but angered her old man, what is it.
As soon as Mrs. Fan's temper came up, no one could stop her, and even her own daughter-in-law wanted to go up and persuade her, but she waved it away, which shows how angry she is.
And what she said before leaving, she slapped Concubine Xian's face again.
Among the ladies who remained, there were also military generals from the DPRK and China, and they agreed with Mrs. Fan's words.
"Concubine Xian Niangniang acts like this, it will only make people think that you are blindly targeting Princess Xiang,"
Concubine Xian was already angry, and gave the order to beat people, but no one was willing to move, it became a joke, she dared to say that if this matter reached the palace, she would definitely become the biggest laughing stock in the harem.
She turned her eyes to the palace maids behind her, wanting them to come and execute, but the palace maids behind her, thinking of the companions who had been killed by Yan Zhong before, several people were hesitant and did not dare to step forward.
"Ahem, ahem!" Tang Yan's coughing sounded extraordinarily abrupt at this time.
Mu Xiang was waiting for Mu Fengting's next step, wanting to see how she would continue and how to end the matter, when he interrupted him like this, he was furious, and opened his mouth and said: "The fourth prince is not feeling well, it is better to go back and rest early, always coughing like this, in case he coughs himself to death, he will add bad luck to others!" ”
The dark-bellied and sinister fellow, who deceives others with a weak appearance, is the most shameless, at least in her opinion, yes!
Dou Hanyan was looking at Tang Yan with concerned eyes, and when he heard her unceremonious sarcasm, he was angry and anxious, "Princess Xiang, you ......"
"Thank you Princess Xiang for your concern, this king is okay for the time being, he can't die, I heard that Concubine Xian is going to play a good show, this king thought he invited the troupe, but I didn't expect it to be Concubine Xian herself as the protagonist, it's really good-looking, this king also heard that next, there is still a performance, right? I can't wait to see it! ”
This is in harmony with the mud, so clever! Neither side was offended, and the topic was successfully removed.
Mu Xiang finally understood how this guy survived, and now, for Tang Xin, he is also hard enough.
"With your body, do you still want to watch the performance, can you afford it? Is there enough blood? Do you want to prepare the imperial doctor, at any time! ”
Tang Yan looked back at Mu Xiang with a smile, "No need, this king hasn't had much to worry about recently, so he is recuperating very well, and it will be okay for a while!" ”
He was very glad that he had cultivated a hard-hearted heart in his early years, otherwise he would have been so angry with her that even if he was not sick, he would have to be so angry that he vomited blood and died.
Tang Mo glanced at Tang Yan with strange eyes, unable to see his intentions clearly, nor could he see the meaning of his words.
"The Queen Mother has arrived!"
The old eunuch's scream interrupted everyone's thoughts.
Queen Dou went and returned, she must have been unable to sit still, so she had to go out in person.
As soon as she sat down, she said: "The palace has only left for a while, why did it become like this, Concubine Xian is also impulsive, some words are not to be said nonsense, since Princess Xiang is unwell, she doesn't like the food in the palace, it is also reasonable, she can't do it for this kind of thing, it spoils the atmosphere, the four princes said very much, today is a good weather, the flowers of Fenglintai are also extraordinarily beautiful, and the ladies are also prepared, it is better for us to move outside, Fenglintai has just set up a waterfront platform, It is just right for you to perform for you, so that the palace can open its eyes and see the beauties of our Southern Jin Dynasty. ”
Dou Hanyan stood up and bowed to Queen Yingying, "Yes, the courtiers will go and prepare!" ”
She came prepared today, waiting to sit on the throne of the first beauty and the first talented woman in the capital, how could it be in the hands of a small village girl.
Mu Yuelan's mind was not here, but she was waiting, and she also knew that the queen would not say this for no reason, so she pushed the boat along the way, "Then there is a need for all distinguished guests to move!" ”
The young ladies in the palace, the county lord, and the princess, all withdrew.
They left, but the wood fragrance and the red leaves did not move.
Queen Dou looked at the two of them with a noble smile, "Even if you want to perform, Princess Xiang should not be an exception, so as not to make people laugh, Princess Xiang should also take this opportunity to prove that although she is from a humble background, she still has real materials." ”
Just Tang Yan and the others thought that she would refuse, not that they would definitely and definitely refuse.
With her temper, she will definitely say: "Whether I have talent or not, it has nothing to do with the queen, the queen has too much to worry about!" "That's her style, that's what Muxiang can say.
But to the surprise of several of them, not only did she not get angry or refuse, but responded with a smile on her face.
Tang Mo was dumbfounded, looking at her with incredible eyes, Tang Xin also thought that he had heard it wrong, only Tang Yan, after the initial doubt, smiled slightly.
If there is no Helian Sheng, he is undoubtedly the one who knows Mu Xiang the most, and An Pingyu, in the final analysis, he is also a good man, he knows his own intentions, but he has never asked for anything.
There is nothing wrong with loving someone, who can control their own heart!
At noon, the sun is shining outside, the breeze is blowing through the sea of flowers, the scenery is pleasant, and the temperature is even more pleasant.
The tables and chairs placed by the palace people are next to a peach blossom forest, and the beautiful scenery is in full view, beautiful, and beautiful as if in a fairyland.
In the center of the small pond, various musical instruments are placed, and the surrounding area is also decorated with flower pots, and there is a pavilion on top.
Mu Fengting had reluctantly stepped down after the queen handed over the steps, and she also knew that the queen was unhappy, because she felt that she had the intention of overstepping her bounds, and as the mother of a country, she was naturally unhappy.
Anyway, she also knew what to do if she couldn't take Muxiang, everything she had done before was just to block her and make enemies for her.
She sat in the garden, and she became an idler, eating melon seeds, drinking tea, and waiting to see the next good show.
When you go outside, you don't have to sit so scattered as if you were in the temple, and there are not so many rules.
Tang Mo and Mu Qingyang chose the quietest corner, to a certain extent, the two of them can be regarded as sympathetic to each other, and it is best to sit together and drink together.
Tang Xin followed Tang Yan closely, and Tang Yan naturally wanted to sit closer to Mu Xiang.
After sitting down, Tang Xin finally couldn't help it and asked Mu Xiang, "Why didn't your little sister come?" ”
He asked very abruptly, Mu Xiang didn't know about the two of them meeting in private, but between the boys and girls, that little bit of hazy love, as soon as he glanced at Tang Xin's eyes, he immediately understood three points.
She smiled lightly, "The sixth prince is very concerned about my little sister, she has something to do today, besides, on such an occasion, I don't want her to participate too much, anyway, she doesn't have to marry someone from the royal family in the future, whether she participates or not, there is no defense!" ”
Tang Xin's heart fell to the bottom at that moment, and he urgently asked, "Why not?" Is royalty bad? Aren't you still the same princess Xiang, how did it happen to her, you can't do it, have you ever asked her opinion, and you didn't even ask, so you took the idea for her, you are arbitrary! ”
Mu Xiang originally meant to remind him, so that he could break off the thoughts he shouldn't have, but he didn't expect that he was still in a hurry, and his face immediately fell, "Is the sixth prince serious, what kind of family does my sister want to match, what does it have to do with you?" The prince should take care of himself, don't be impulsive and mess up your mind! ”
"I ......" Although Tang Xin is young, he is still very steady, and today he suddenly became open-mouthed, and even Tang Yan had to look at him a few more times. This younger brother has grown up and has his own mind, is this good or bad?
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was wrong again, Hongye hurriedly interjected, "Caiyun is still young, and it's too early to talk about marriage, so it's not in a hurry." ”
Tang Yan also said: "Yes, the second young lady is still young, I heard the princess say before, I intend to let her go to the school with the third young master, right?" This king knows the academician of Qingsong Academy, and if the princess agrees, this king can go and ask him to be accommodating. ”
Hongye smiled: "This is good, it's always good to have an acquaintance, those academicians, they are all old antiques, oil and salt don't enter, and they are very rigid, if the four princes can help you talk about moving, it will save you a lot of trouble!" ”
The trouble they refer to is Caiyun's enrollment.
In fact, Mu Xiang also inquired in the past two days, only senior colleges accept female students, and they are all young ladies of the family, and they can only enter because of a big relationship, and the number is very small. The rest of them are all private gentlemen at home who give lectures at home.
Mu Xiang weighed it, Tang Xin had a sentence that was right, she shouldn't decide anything for Caiyun, whether the future road is good or bad, she should go out by herself, "Okay, then it's troublesome for the four princes!" ”
After saying this, she saw a smile in Tang Xin's eyes that she couldn't hide. What she said seemed to be right in his arms!
Stopped, seeing that those performers were still preparing, Mu Xiang thought of something, "I heard that the emperor is going to be crowned king, congratulations to the four princes, I don't know what the title is!" ”
The rules of the Southern Jin Kingdom are like this, if the king is sealed, the palace is set up, and the land is divided, there is no possibility of inheriting the throne, unless the princes who can be emperors are dead, it will be their turn.
Generally speaking, the fourth prince is out of the question, and it won't be his turn, but he doesn't care, with a body full of holes, what can he do.
Tang Yan's eyes were a little broken, and he glanced at the direction where the queen was, and the shattered light in his eyes quickly disappeared, "Father's love, something that was decided a few years ago, now it's just a matter of revisiting, the queen's mother was originally interested in the sixth brother, but the princess also knew that the sixth brother was young, and the king was not worried about him. ”
How could Mu Xiang not understand the meaning of his words, and there was not too much expression on his face, he still had that look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "The emperor's choice, who can shake it, besides, now the prince has no big fault, the court is stable, the origin is not moving, and what others say is in vain, the prince is diligent in the government, although he does not have much real power, but he seems to be very fond of the emperor in recent days, and he has been trained in the army for half a month, and the emperor has more trust in his eyes." ”
Tang Hao has been a lot more honest recently, and he doesn't know whose opinion he has listened to, he doesn't fight or rob, in the days when Mu Xiang disappeared, Helian Sheng was not in the army, so he obediently went to the army, and ate and lived with the soldiers, but also sold a lot of people's hearts.
He actively performed in the army, and naturally some people returned his affairs to the emperor, and it was reasonable for Long Yan to be happy.
Tang Yan glanced at Tang Xin, raised his lips and smiled, "What Princess Xiang said is very true, this king understands, the princess is really smart!" ”
It's not that he doesn't know how to start early, the prince has no fault, and the seat is naturally stable, the emperor is old, and he definitely doesn't like the princes to fight for the throne, and he doesn't like to see the picture of how anxious he is to fry each other.
Mu Xiangbai glanced at him, "If it's beautiful, let's talk less, when the beauties come on stage to perform, you should also choose a princess, I think the two county lords of the Dou family like the two of you very much, don't you think about it?" ”
"No, this king is in poor health, whoever he marries will harm whoever he is, and if he can't die, why bother to create evil again," Tang Yan said a little sad, no longer like acting.
Tang Xin said solemnly: "Brother Huang doesn't have to be negative, I will definitely find the best doctor to treat your illness, no matter how difficult it is, I will find it!" ”
Hongye suddenly said: "I heard that the people of Longxi are good at using witchcraft, if there is no way for ordinary doctors, the four princes can try!" ”
"Thank you Madame for reminding me, this king's illness has dragged on for too long, more than ten years, and he has already been sick to the bone marrow, and he is about to die, even if he is not cured," Tang Yan sighed.
Muxiang pressed Momiji's hand, suggesting that she stop asking. This is someone's private matter, so why bother to get to the bottom of it!
At this moment, the female official in the queen's palace walked out, "The queen mother, as well as the distinguished guests, the first lady to perform, is ready." ”
The queen raised her hand slightly, "Then let them begin!" ”
"Yes!" The female officer was slightly blessed and retreated.
