Chapter 214: The Man in the Bureau
It was not unreasonable for Old Man Mu to be worried, and several Mrs. Mu immediately nodded cautiously.
"Don't be afraid," Old Madam Mu looked at the serious expressions of her daughters-in-law, and then opened her mouth to comfort: "After all, this is the Xie family's business, even if we are inexplicably implicated this time, it still has nothing to do with us at the root, I am just taking precautions, I am just afraid that the situation in Beijing will affect the affairs of the north, don't worry too much." ”
"Implicated...... Third Lady Mu frowned slightly: "I see that the prince knows how to avoid suspicion." Reasoning, the Xie family can be regarded as a family of the king mother, and it doesn't matter if Fourth Sister Xie has an accident, he didn't see it, but he didn't expect him to pass by and bump into him, but he still didn't want to care about it. Grandma Xie wanted to beg King Xin to escort them back to Beijing, but King Xin refused. ”
"No, it doesn't matter." Mu Hongshang couldn't help but help Zheng Ying distinguish: "There is a problem with the guards of the Xie family, and it was discovered by King Xin." When he was on the cliff, didn't he deliberately send those suspicious guards away, and he also reminded us to be careful all the way back to Beijing. Also welcome..."
Mu Hongshang actually wanted to be honest for a moment. She thought that she and Xie Shurou were actually saved by Zheng Ying. But she thought about the scene at that time, as well as Zheng Ying's previous instructions to her, and she couldn't hold back the words when they came to her mouth.
However, Old Madam Mu didn't seem to care much about how Zheng Ying acted, she waved her hand and said: "We don't need to worry about this kind of thing, what is the relationship between King Xin and the Xie family, whether he avoids suspicion, why should he avoid suspicion, this is not something we should care about, and it has nothing to do with us." ”
"Mother has to be reasonable." Duchess An Guo thought for a while and replied: "The affairs of the Xie family are complicated, and they are probably also involved in the dispute between the crown princes. Our Anguo Mansion is a real outsider, and there is no need to take care of these things, no matter how the situation changes, as long as it does not affect the affairs of the northern border, everything has nothing to do with us. ”
"That's exactly what it is." Mu Laofuru nodded: "But in the letter sent to the border pass, don't forget to also believe in the king's attitude of avoiding suspicion in this matter, don't hide everything from the border pass, boss, they have comprehensive information, so they can deal with various situations at any time." ”
"It's better to reduce some daily human contacts these days," Mrs. Mu said: "Let's close the house, even if there is a big matter in Beijing, it will not involve us." ”
"Not necessarily!" Old Madam Mu waved her hand and replied with great momentum: "These things should not have involved us in the first place, even if Hongshang was implicated in this accident, it is not us who should avoid suspicion." Everything is business as usual in the Anguo Mansion, what should be done. ”
Having said that, several Mrs. Mu still looked quite worried, so Second Mrs. Mu sighed and talked about her eldest son who followed King Yi to Zhending Mansion.
"It's an eventful season," Mu Erfu said tenaciously, "Zhengyi doesn't know when he will be able to come back." ”
Old Madam Mu's face was slightly cold: "Don't worry too much, neither of the emperor's two sons is a fuel-efficient lamp." I just want to drag our Mu family into the game, but it's not so easy. ”
"Second brother and sister, rest assured," Duchess An Guo said softly: "Zhending Mansion is not far, this trip is only a ten-day journey, counting the round trip, at most more than twenty days, Zhengyi will be able to come back, he will not delay much." ”
"It's not allowed." Old Madam Mu snorted coldly: "Zhengyi is currently on an errand in Xiaojinwei, if King Yi wants to find an excuse to let him stay in Zhending Mansion for a few more days, it is not impossible." So if you're late to come back, don't worry about it. It doesn't matter, Zhengyi knows it in his heart, and he understands King Yi's thoughts. ”
"My daughter-in-law knows." Mu Erfuru nodded, but still sighed worriedly.
"Don't worry," Mrs. Mu looked very confident: "It's better to hurry up and show your daughter-in-law to Zhengyi, and when he comes back, I will urge him to go on a blind date quickly." The family matter has been decided, and the queen mother is not good at interfering, and Zhengyi should be busy preparing for marriage next, very busy. Let's go back to Beijing to get married, the emperor knows about this, doesn't he? It is not clear which is more important than the other. ”
This had to be understood, and several Mrs. Mu couldn't help but laugh together: "It's still my mother's idea." ”
It's just that it's easy to say, but it's complicated to do. Therefore, in the next few days, several wives of the Mu family were very busy.
Early in the morning of the second day, several ladies wrote letters separately, and the Mu family sent messengers to send them to the border pass, and then the four Mrs. Mu and even Mrs. Mu were very busy, and they were all busy with Mu Zhengyi's blind date.
Mu Hongsheng has been recuperating from her injuries for the past few days, she can't practice martial arts, and she didn't go to school in the study, so she was detained in Mu Laofu's house, which is not boring.
Mrs. Mu didn't allow her to go out, but she was willing to let people bring Mu Biying over to play with her, she sometimes played with Mu Biying in the yard for a while, waiting for her brothers and brothers to get out of school, and sometimes accompanied Mrs. Mu to talk, and by the way, curiously watched the portraits of the girls who were sent into the house. For several days, except for Xie Shurou sending letters and food every day, nothing major happened.
On the fifth day when Mu Hongshang returned home from Jinghui Temple, the redness and swelling in the shoulder blade had subsided a lot, and she got up early in the morning and had breakfast, Mu Biying came to Mu Laofu Rao's yard to find Mu Hongsheng.
Mu Hongsheng had just been pressed by Cuiyun and smedicated with medicinal oil, and the smell of medicinal oil was all over her body, Mu Biying was very disgusted with her, her furry face was wrinkled, and she sneezed at Mu Hongshang more than a dozen times in a row, but she still didn't run away.
Looking at Mu Biying's funny appearance of sneezing, Mu Hongshang couldn't help laughing, and the laughter like silver bells drifted around with the breeze, so that several Mrs. Mu who were in Mrs. Mu's room listened to it, and couldn't help but be happy with her.
"It's lively to have this girl at home." Mrs. Mu also smiled, she pointed to the portraits of the girls on the table, and said to her daughters-in-law: "In the future, when the daughter-in-law enters the door, the house will be even more lively." ”
A few Mrs. Mu laughed even more happily, and everyone was laughing, when the grandmother of the outer courtyard suddenly hurriedly walked in.
It just so happened that Cuiyun was serving sweet soup to Mu Hongsheng according to Old Master Mu's instructions, and as soon as the messenger saw her, she hurriedly ran over and said: "Miss Cuiyun, there is an old monk outside, carrying a package, claiming to be from Jinghui Temple, to see the old lady, I asked the third lady to bring a message early in the morning." ”
"What? What did the monks of Jinghui Temple do with the old lady? Cuiyun had a strange look: "He asked the third lady to bring a message to the old lady?" Why didn't I listen......"
