186: The nervousness of meeting parents
When she was a child in her previous life, Mu Xue heard from her ancestors that the Imperial City was such a prosperous and majestic place.
It's like the noble bright yellow color that I saw in a dream.
High walls and red tiles, carved beams and painted buildings.
At this time, it was already gradually noon, and the sun was just right.
This one thing under the sun, one by one, is so delicate that people can't jump out of any problems.
Sure enough, it was a royal thing, no one dared to treat it sloppily, it was the rivets on the gate of this palace, Mu Xue felt that the inlay had a soul.
The Forbidden City, which this ancestor built with all his painstaking efforts, is different.
Mu Xue's eyes were full of admiration, and she breathed a long sigh of relief, the taste she saw with her own eyes was more shocking than those seen in the illustrations.
Mu Xue was standing at the gate of this palace that was so majestic that she seemed to be able to eat people at the moment, and it seemed that she could feel a huge pressure just by looking at it.
Seeing that the princess was just looking at the eaves wall of the palace gate, she was not in a hurry to enter, and sighed, that little Jiu'er glanced at Fei Qi in embarrassment.
This palace is going to be a mess, how can this princess still have the heart to delay here.
Fei Qi understood quite well and walked towards Mu Xue.
"Princess, let's go in."
This is a partial door, a rule passed down from the ancestors.
Mu Xue didn't care, and when she heard the words, she took a step.
"How? What did you ask? ”
Walking in the long corridor, Mu Xue let the people around her stay away, and then asked Fei Qi beside her in a low voice.
"Princess, the slave maid asked, the nine father-in-law said, what kind of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods are really here in the palace today."
What are the ghosts, snakes, snakes, and snakes coming?
Could it be that the prince from the East Palace is also here?
"Who are they?"
"It's such a princess, originally the emperor's early edict just summoned General Mu Zhennan into the palace. But this matter is very important, the prince entered the palace early in the morning to greet the queen, and he may also be in the imperial study at this moment. And while you were sleeping, I heard from the Ninth Princess, the emperor also sent other little eunuchs to the General's Mansion to invite people, but who exactly was invited, and the Ninth Princess's came out first, yes, and he didn't know."
According to Fei Qi's words, it is really all bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods who are here.
She was lazy, too lazy to get up after the sun burned her ass.
Along the way, Mu Xue was decent, and her eyes never looked randomly.
"The Ninth Father-in-law told you that before he went out, did the emperor have a long face angry or something..."
It's not just that.
At this moment, Mu Xue's palms were sweaty, and she had a nervous feeling that she was about to meet her parents.
And this patriarch is the emperor who is above 10,000 people.
I can't help but be worried.
"I haven't heard of that."
The inner courtyard of the palace in the Forbidden City covers an extremely wide area, and Mu Xue felt as if she had been walking for half an hour, and finally arrived at the so-called imperial study.
"Princess, wait a minute, the slave will go in first to inform you."
The door of the imperial study was closed, and there seemed to be no movement coming from inside, quiet like a black hole.
"There is Father-in-law."
The Nine Fathers leaned down slightly, and then went to the imperial study.
Mu Xue's whole person was bathed in the sun, and the shadows condensed into a fine mass on the soles of her feet.
Today, she is wearing a red cloak, and her skin is even more white and greasy under the sun, and the whole person seems to be plated with a layer of light.
This color is still matched after Fei Qi asked the prince about the color of the clothes he was wearing when he went out today, and the prince was wearing a long sable fur coat, which matched the color of her cloak.
From the last time Fei Qi asked Mu Xue on behalf of the emperor and said what the relationship with the prince was, Mu Xue knew that the emperor wanted harmony between their young couple.
So even if Mu Xue dislikes this color at the moment, it is too frivolous and gorgeous, but there is no way.
"Yo, who should I be, it turned out to be the third sister."
Xiao Jiu'er was still in the imperial study and never came out, but Mu Xue waited for an uninvited guest.
Mu Wanting's slightly snarky voice sounded from behind her.
This voice was a little abrupt, but it scared Mu Xue into a thrill.
She squinted her eyes and looked back at Mu Wanting, who had made a lot of fun of herself, and said with a smile: "This is in front of the door of the imperial study, can your voice be quieter?" It's not your business to quarrel with the emperor, but it's not your business alone."
Mu Wanting went out with the prince yesterday and came back at dusk.
She entered the mansion with her front foot, but in just half an hour, Mu Zhennan and Mu Haifeng had already returned.
After a simple understanding of the cause and effect of the incident, Mu Zhennan's heart was already in a mess, and when he saw Mu Wanting proudly telling him that she had caught the prince's line, Mu Zhennan's face changed instantly.
Immediately grounded her.
said that before this matter was over, Mu Zhennan ordered Mu Wanting not to step out of the gate of Bishui Courtyard for half a step.
But now that there is an edict from the emperor, she has been brought over.
And she also knew that the prince had entered the palace early in the morning, thinking that the prince's persuasion had worked.
Thinking of this, the corners of Mu Wanting's lips flashed with a smug smile.
The gaze is simply the kind of arrogance that is about to go to heaven.
He snorted coldly at Mu Xue and said, "I really don't know if you are the daughter of our Mu Mansion, you should know that the matter of the scorpion has nothing to do with the General's Mansion, and your husband still ran to the emperor to sue the emperor, what?" Isn't it possible that you, the princess, don't even have this effect? ”
In the final analysis, Mu Wanting still blamed Mu Xue for all the dangers of the General's Mansion being besieged for so many days.
"Whether this concubine is the daughter of Mufu or not, my father naturally knows in his heart. But look at my sister, there are peach blossoms between your eyebrows, and I heard that the prince asked my sister to go on a trip yesterday, I think it's a good thing to come, congratulations to my sister. ”
Well???
She congratulated herself?
Hearing Mu Xue's words, Mu Wanting's eyes flashed with doubts.
In the past, this man's fierce hatred couldn't tear himself apart, why did he still say such things.
She didn't think Mu Xue's words were kind, and warned in a wary tone: "I can tell you, if you dare to make a hindrance from it, I will tear you up."
Zhao Xiangning enlightened her last night, before anything is confirmed, don't be careless.
She felt that Mu Xue mentioned the prince at the moment, and she intuitively felt that Mu Xue must be going to intervene in the middle and destroy her own good deeds.
Seeing that this person looked like a fried hen, Mu Xue snorted coldly and glanced elsewhere.
This copy concubine is too lazy to take care of your appearance.
Such a high-minded appearance ignited the flame of jealousy in Mu Wanting's heart.
She walked quickly in the direction of Mu Xue, and the two steps were so hurried that they shook the steps between her hair, and there was a slight sound.
"Miss Ben is not joking with you, if you dare to make a hindrance in front of the emperor and the queen, Miss Ben is not done with you!!"
Mu Wanting gritted her teeth.
Sure enough, jealousy makes people ugly, and Mu Wanting's face, which was originally quite passable, is distorted very much at the moment, but it destroys the beauty.
Mu Xue saw that she seemed to be angry and ruined, and thought to herself what she would do if Mu Wanting knew that the person who wanted to frame the general's mansion and the royal mansion at the same time was the prince she asked to save.
The prince is a real villain.
For the sake of the General's Mansion, Mu Xue didn't want this Mu Wanting to fall into the hands of the prince.
Mu Xue took a small step forward, and the eyes of the two sisters were filled with hatred and hatred to tear each other apart.
"Mu Wanting, no matter how much you looked down on us sisters in the past, but this concubine has a word to warn you."
Mu Xue's tone was extremely serious, and she called her name by name.
Such disrespect with a surname made Mu Wanting feel very embarrassed.
She immediately blushed and stared at Mu Xue with resentment.
Compared with her impatience, Mu Xue was much calmer.
I saw this Mu Xue leaning forward slightly, and in her ear, in a voice that only two people could hear, she spoke word by word.
"Excuse me! In order to! The safety of the General's Palace! Away from that prince! Go far!! ”
Stay away from the prince?
These words seemed to poke the pain in Mu Wanting's heart.
"What if you become a princess? What Miss Ben did, where did you get the qualifications to point fingers!! ”
Mu Xue squinted, feeling that this woman was a big fool.
Seeing that Xiao Jiu'er was coming over at the steps, Mu Xue squinted her eyes and said to make a long story short: "Mu Wanting, it's your business if you want to be stupid, if you harm the General's Mansion, don't blame me for ignoring sisterhood." ”
"Harm the General's Mansion? Heh..."
Mu Wanting snorted coldly, and her eyebrows were full of contempt for Mu Xue.
"The person who really harmed our General's Mansion now is you Mu Xue, and I am the one who rescued the General's Mansion from fire and water."
The two tense women confronted each other.
The eyes that hated each other seemed to be hating each other's bodies to glare out of a few holes.
"Princess, Miss Mu, the emperor invites you two to come in."
When Xiao Jiu'er came over, he could feel the flames running in the air factor under the steps.
Because Mu Xue has the name of the prince and princess on the top of her head, she naturally walks in front of Mu Wanting.
This feeling of being inferior behind her made Mu Wanting very angry in her heart.
Mu Xue could feel a vicious gaze staring at him behind her, she hooked the corners of her lips and sneered, thinking about what kind of wonderful expression this person's expression would be if Mu Wanting heard that the emperor gave her a marriage.
The imperial study is the daily office of the emperor.
Early this morning, the emperor summoned Mu Zhennan in the imperial study instead of in the Yangxin Palace, which means that the emperor has not planned to poke the matter in front of the cultural relics and hundred officials.
That's a good sign.
Xiao Jiu'er led the way in front, and when she entered the door of the imperial study, Mu Xue could feel a very heavy gaze falling on her.
This gaze is unfamiliar.
It is not like Nangong Li's scrutiny, nor is it like Mu Zhennan's care.
Mu Xue lowered her head and looked at the carpet at the bottom of her feet, thinking that this should be the emperor's gaze.
The deterrent power of the emperor of a country is different, the atmosphere in the room is very secret and quiet, and before he gets closer, Mu Xue feels a pressure inexplicably.
