Chapter 157: Meeting
Yingyue was confused, Xie Xiang only said that she knew, but the person ran away in a blink of an eye, how would she reply when she went back? Could it be that Miss Mu waited in the flower hall? Didn't you invite Miss Mu to come to the outer study?
"You go back and serve first," Xie Changjing glanced at his daughter's maid, "Let Rou'er entertain Miss Mu well, don't be lazy." ”
Yingyue was stunned for a moment, so she had to salute Xie Changjing and go back to the West Flower Hall directly.
And Xie Xiang, who strode directly into the second gate and went to Mrs. Xie's courtyard.
Mrs. Xie was in the bedroom at this time, and she had already changed into the clothes of the guests, and the snow warbler was holding the butterfly opera flowers and golden silk flowers found from the warehouse to show her, and Xie Xiang suddenly opened the curtain and came in.
"Sir." When Mrs. Xie saw her husband come in, she felt a little clear in her heart, and she didn't need Xie Xiang to open her mouth, so she took the initiative to say, "The concubine sent someone to invite Miss Mu." ”
"Hmm!" Xie Xiang nodded and replied, "I'll go to the main hall, you wait here first." I also sent a message to my daughters-in-law and told them not to rush over. ”
"Yes!" Mrs. Xie immediately waved her hand and asked Xue Ying to send a message to invite someone, and then really sat on the soft floor of the bedroom to drink tea, and didn't care about Xie Xiang who went to the main hall.
Xie Shuyi and Xie Shurou were talking with Mu Hongsheng in the West Flower Hall, when Xue Ying suddenly came in and said that Mrs. Xie wanted to see Mu Hongsheng.
Xie Shuyi, who was temporarily brought in to accompany the guests, was naturally not stupid, at this time, Miss Mu came to the door, and everyone knew that something was wrong, so she did not offer to accompany Mu Hongshang to Mrs. Xie's courtyard with too much enthusiasm.
Xie Shurou accompanied Mu Hongshang alone, walked through half of the Xie family's garden, and went directly to Mrs. Xie's courtyard. As soon as the two entered the garden, Jin Ying greeted her with a smile and saluted Mu Hongsheng directly, "Miss, Madame, please." ”
Mu Hongshang thanked Jin Ying and followed Jin Ying to Mrs. Xie's main hall, but Xie Shurou behind her was stopped by Xue Ying.
"Fourth Miss," Xue Ying said in a low voice, "Madame, please go and sit in the Warm Pavilion, wait a minute." ”
Xie Shurou paused, nodded immediately, and followed Xue Ying into the warm pavilion.
In the warm pavilion, Mrs. Xie was holding a cup and drinking tea with a calm face, and when Xie Shurou saw that her grandmother was here, she immediately understood what was going on.
"Grandmother," Xie Shurou first pretended to accuse Mrs. Xie, "it was her granddaughter who made an assertion." ”
"It's okay," Mrs. Xie really shook her head slightly, and she didn't mean to care at all, "It is definitely not a trivial matter to let the baby bump of the Guogong Mansion go out to visit guests overnight, and your grandfather will definitely want to meet it." Sit down and wait and see. ”
Xie Shurou sat in the warm pavilion with Mrs. Xie like this, waiting quietly.
On the other side, Mu Hongsheng had already greeted Xie Xiang, she didn't dare to delay, and said straight to the point, "Xiangye, the little girl came to visit rashly tonight and disturbed your house." I won't tell you that it was the little girl's grandmother who sent the little girl over, and there was a letter from the grandmother, and the grandmother instructed the little girl to hand it over to the grandfather herself. ”
"You don't have to be polite, Miss." Xie Xiang was very happy, and nodded directly at Mu Hongsheng, "When the old man heard that the eldest lady was visiting, he knew that something must be wrong, but the eldest lady said that it was okay." ”
Mu Hongshang carefully took out the envelope she had carefully collected from her arms, raised her hands, and respectfully presented it to Xie Xiang, "Xiangye, this is the music of the little girl's father and uncle, and I also ask Xiangye to transfer it to the saint on my behalf." ”
As soon as he heard this, Xie Xiang's brows suddenly frowned, and then he didn't even have time to pay attention to that bit of politeness, and asked directly, "Child, is this a song from the north?" But the messenger from your house has arrived? ”
"Yes!" Mu Hongshang nodded, "It's dusk, hurry up." ”
Xie Xiang took the envelope in Mu Hongsheng's hand and asked hurriedly, "Did the messenger say, why hasn't the messenger returned this year?" The saint has asked several times in the past few days, and if he delays it any longer, he is afraid that he will provoke Long Yan's anger. ”
"Back to Xiangye's words," Mu Hongsheng's voice trembled a little, as if she was about to cry, but she still replied very bravely, "My father is in charge and detains Qincha. However, my father did not do this intentionally to despise the Chincha and disrespect the Holy One, but actually did it for a reason. Xiangye, the Mu family has no selfish intentions, and the detention of Qin Cha is really a helpless move, all in order to ensure the stability of my Great Zhou border and protect the peace of the northern border. ”
Mu Hongsheng's words surprised Xie Xiang very much, he never expected An Guogong to dare to detain Qin Cha. Angola is fair and cautious, and it must be a last resort to do such a thing.
He didn't expect that as soon as he asked, the little girl from the Anguo Mansion would give him a bamboo tube to pour beans, and the matter of detaining Qincha would be said casually.
Xie Xiang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "You kid, you are sincere." The seizure of Chin Cha is not a trivial matter, it is a big crime. ”
"I know." Mu Hongshang nodded, staring at Xie Xiang seriously with a pair of big eyes, "Grandmother explained before I came, Xie Xiangruo asked, according to the truth." Xiangye, for the sake of the stability of the border pass, in order to protect the safety of the northern side, General Mu is not afraid of anything, dare to do anything, we are not weak-minded. But Xiangye, my father is really forced to do so, just look at his recital. ”
"Don't worry." Xie Xiang pointed to the chair on the side, "Wait a minute, I'll see it." ”
In order to see Mu Hongsheng, Xie Xiang had already sent out the subordinates of Mrs. Xie's main hall, and there was not even a person to pour tea. Mu Hongsheng nodded after listening to Xie Xiang's instructions, found a chair and sat down obediently, looking at Xie Xiang with two big eyes expectantly.
Xie Xiang quickly finished reading An Guogong and Mu Jingluo's recital, and he didn't speak for a long time. He was silent for a long time before he asked, "Son, why did you remember to come to me?" Didn't your eldest brother go back to Beijing? Why didn't he follow the procedure to hand over the fold to the military department? ”
"Daddy sent more than one piece back, my eldest brother went to the military department," Mu Hongshang replied, "but my grandmother was worried that the military department would suppress it and not send it." Grandmother said that the Qincha was ordered to patrol the border, and the father's original intention was not to disrespect the saints, so even if the Qincha was detained, it would not be too long. In the next few days, the Qin Cha will return to Beijing. ”
The sentence was to the end, and Xie Xiang nodded. This old lady Mu, don't look at the man who is not an official in the court, but she is also an understanding person!
Zhou Shangshu didn't want to get involved in the troubles in the north, so he wanted to find a sleek Qin Cha to consume, but he didn't expect An Guogong to be a person who didn't follow the routine, and directly tore his face, this time Zhou Shangshu was difficult to do, and he was afraid that he would be responsible, so the best way was to suppress An Guogong's fold, and when Qin Cha came back, he directly participated in An Guogong's book on the grounds of disrespecting Tianyan.
