Chapter 118: Thoughts

"This is the bottom of the osmanthus syrup bowl?" Old Madam Mu held up the slightly long note and asked Mu Hongsheng.

"Yes!" Mu Hongshang nodded.

"Heh...... "Mrs. Mu smiled, "It's really smart, a plate of pine nuts and lily cakes, red clothes love to eat, there may be other people in our family who also love to eat, and the food box may not necessarily go to red clothes." But there are only two bowls of osmanthus syrup, sweet and cold, no one will rob this little girl with Hongshang. ”

"Such useless news can be sent today to get a favor," An Guogong also chuckled, "Tomorrow to collect clothes and enter the palace, I am afraid that the queen can't wait to arrange those clan girls to hang in front of his eyes, and when the time comes, our palace will also know, and this news will naturally not be exchanged for any favor." ”

"Moreover," Mrs. Mu added with a smile, "such inconsequential news, even if there is a mistake in the transmission and it is discovered, it doesn't matter, no one can think of him going up." These five princes are really smart people, and they use the queen's hand to be his own favor. ”

"Mother," Mu Zhengyi stretched out his head and glanced at the content on the note, and smiled, "You can rest assured this time, right?" The emperor asked me to hang idle in Xiaojinwei, it turned out that it was just for this. ”

"I know it, but I'll put it at ease." Second Lady Mu also breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "It seems that I am really worried in vain." ”

"The palace is so big, it's good to avoid it," Duchess An Guo said, "If you really can't avoid it, it's actually okay to just put your face and walk away." The queen mother is selected to enter the palace, and they must all be girls with excellent rules and obedient rules, and they must not be able to pull down their faces to do more senseless entanglement. It's just that Zhengyi remember not to meddle in things, whoever suffers has nothing to do with you, don't feel pity for no reason. Don't underestimate girls, there are many means, just don't let people rely on them. ”

"If you want me to say, you don't have to be so troublesome," An Guogong said with a smile, "Everyone in Beijing knows that Zhengyi is coming back to Beijing to discuss marriage, and after getting married, he will return to the north." No matter where the emperor arranges you to go, it is only a temporary listing to receive money. In this case, we might as well take that share of idle rice in a down-to-earth manner, tomorrow you will enter the palace with me first, and after reporting to Yu Cheng, you will directly ask for a two-month long vacation, and say that you want to go to Longxi on a blind date, can he still allow it? ”

"That's an idea, too." Mu Zhengyi nodded.

Early in the morning of the second day, Mu Zhengyi entered the palace with An Guogong and looked for Yu Cheng, the commander of the Jinwei Dynasty, to report for duty. Yu Chengqi looked very enthusiastic when he saw An Guogong and Mu Zhengyi, and immediately took out a palace walking guard waist card and handed it to Mu Zhengyi, it seemed that it had been prepared a long time ago.

After An Guogong and Yu Chengqi exchanged a few polite words, Yu Chengqi reassured An Guogong with a big bag, saying that Mu Zhengyi had no errands to receive when he was hanging here, and he could enter the palace every three or five days and be on duty for half a day with the arrangement.

A trip to the palace in three or five days? An Guogong sneered slightly in his heart after hearing this, he was not polite at all, and spoke directly to Yu Chengqi, proposing to ask his nephew for two months off and go on a blind date in other places.

Hearing An Guogong's request, Yu Chengqi was stunned, but he pondered for a while, and he really didn't find a reason to refuse this request. After all, the eldest son of Mu was originally a border general, and he returned to Beijing to marry his daughter-in-law on a blind date.

It's just that this request really made him a little embarrassed, remembering the queen's advice...... Alas!!

Yu Chengqi finally failed to refuse An Guogong's reasonable request and granted Mu Zhengyi a two-month long vacation. After sending off An Guogong and Mu Zhengyi, he sighed and went to the imperial study, at least this matter has to be reported to the emperor.

To Yu Chengqi's surprise, after the emperor heard about Mu Zhengyi's request for leave, he didn't react much, just smiled and said, "I just said that the queen was busy in vain." Is the Mu family at her mercy? ”

At the same time, Empress Wei of Yuyang Palace also received the news. After she sent away Xiao Jinwei, who was sent by Yu Chengqi to deliver the message, she sighed depressedly, and then looked at Zheng Jin, the sixth prince who was calmly drinking tea on the side, with a little complaint.

"Jin'er, this time, you miscalculated." Empress Wei said: "The palace said before, please ask your father to give him an order to let him go to the night, and the Jin Wei should be too conspicuous." I have said it a long time ago, and the fact that the palace summoned many clan girls into the palace cannot be concealed at all. It's you, you must persuade the palace to beg your father for an order, this is good, that Mu Zhengyi must have received the news in advance, and directly asked for two months of leave, and there is no room for turnaround. ”

The sixth prince, Zheng Jin, still looked calm, and he smiled and said to Empress Wei, "Queen Mother, don't be impatient. Do you think that Erchen let him go to Jinwei just to give him a blind date? ”

"Or else?" Empress Wei looked at her son with a puzzled expression.

"The queen mother doesn't need to ask more now," Zheng Jin smiled, looking confident, "That Mu Zhengyi doesn't like to go to the palace on an errand, I'm afraid that you will calculate his family affairs, so it is better for us to fulfill his wish." ”

"What are you ......" Empress Wei looked surprised, "Jin'er, a few days ago, you must go to the palace to beg your father and let him enter Jinwei." Why do you go to such great lengths and give up so easily? ”

"Queen Mother," Zheng Jin put down the teacup and still smiled gently, "I guess in the next few days, my father will have a will to come down and give me the mansion to let me and my fifth brother go out of the palace and open the mansion." Since Mu Zhengyi doesn't like to enter the palace, the queen mother might as well go and tell Yu Chengqi, and when Mu Zhengyi comes back from leave, he doesn't have to enter the palace, and directly send him to my house on a business. Although I am out of the palace, don't the guards in the palace still have to be uniformly dispatched by the Xiaojin Guard? ”

Empress Wei stared at her son for a few seconds, then nodded, "Yes." Just as you wish. Those clan girls in that palace ......"

"Don't rush to send it out of the palace yet." Zheng Jin replied, "Send it out now, my father should be suspicious." ”

"So Jin'er, you weren't for Mu Zhengyi's marriage in the first place!" Empress Wei shook her head: "It's so much trouble. ”

"But we can't say that," Zheng Jin smiled, "If he is willing to enter the palace honestly, we have nothing to lose, right?" Miss Xie has been calling herself sick these days, who knows if it was the instruction of Xie Xiang's old fox. Miss Xie is friendly with the eldest lady of the Anguo Mansion, and this matter is probably due to Xie Xiang's instructions. Xie Xiang has been cautious for many years, and now he suddenly intends to befriend An Guogong, who is this for? ”

"If you marry Miss Xie Si, everything will not be a problem." Empress Wei replied, "Jin'er is so handsome, and erudite and gentle as jade, this palace doesn't believe that Miss Xie will not like you." ”

"The queen mother's words are partial," Zheng Jin shook his head and smiled, "The fifth brother is a figure like an immortal." Looks and talents are no worse than mine. ”

"Him?" Empress Wei snorted coldly, "On the surface, it looks fine, but in the bones, it is cold." He was raised by my own hands, but I never knew what he was thinking. ”
