Chapter 266: Alert
"I don't know if the letter to Sister Gu has been delivered before," Mu Hongshang sighed softly: "It's been a long time, and I haven't replied yet." ”
"Don't worry, it's only been a few days," Xie Shurou replied with a smile: "Ningling is quite far away, and it will take a long time for the messenger to come and go." A few days ago, my grandmother told me to write a letter to her, and my father personally instructed the messenger at home to deliver the letter. ”
"That's right." Mu Hongshang glanced at Xie Shurou, but nothing more.
But she actually didn't need her to ask more, Xie Shurou took the initiative to speak: "Naturally, Sister Gu is the granddaughter of Scholar Gu after all, and this matter involves King Yi, and now Scholar Gu is considered to have inherited King Yi's love." ”
These few sentences are very vaguely pointed, and Xie Xiang is worried that King Yi will take the initiative to use this matter to find a favor from Gu University. This sentence is not difficult to understand, but the meaning behind this sentence made Mu Hongsheng silent for a long time.
She stood in front of the iron net of the Hundred Bird Garden, stared at the red finch for a long time, and then said in a low voice: "It turns out that Xie Xiang has already made a decision." ”
"I'm just a backhouse girl, and they'll know these things to me. That's my guess, and I guess he had already chosen King Xin. But my grandfather attaches great importance to the interests of the Xie family, and it is not surprising that there is a change in his position. Xie Shurou shrugged her shoulders, this is her habit in modern times, and now facing Mu Hongsheng, whom she trusts, she unconsciously relaxed, and began to bring out some actions that she has cultivated in modern society.
"Sister Xie," Mu Hongshang was silent for a moment before she spoke, "You don't need to follow me for this kind of thing." ”
"Standing in the position of the Xie family's daughter, it's really unnecessary," Xie Shurou followed Mu Hongsheng's gaze, and also stared straight at the birds in the iron net: "And I don't have anything, I'm just thinking with my good friends." Hongshang, your life was saved by you, and I won't forget it. Although your Anguo Mansion is not involved in the dispute over the storage position, there are some things that it is good to prepare in advance. For example, now, the current ordnance case has suddenly become so big, and my grandfather has added fuel to the fire, and your Mu family is in charge of military affairs in the north, and you are still being involved. ”
"Sister Xie, don't worry." Mu Hongshang turned her head and smiled at Xie Shurou: "We didn't suffer a loss, but took advantage of it." Didn't you listen? The emperor used the topic to play, and he is going to replenish the northern territory with ordnance and horses! ”
"Fortunately, the emperor is an understanding person, so lucky." Xie Shurou replied softly.
Mu Hongshang didn't say anything, and Xie Shurou didn't say either. The two girls stood side by side in front of the iron cage in the Hundred Bird Garden, and the maids were far away, like close sisters in one place, admiring the birds while talking intimately, looking warm and harmonious. It's a pity that the topic of conversation between the two is not so lighthearted.
After a while, Xie Shurou suddenly chuckled: "Huh...... If my grandfather hears us doing this again, he will probably think that we 'ignorant women and children' will talk about the government in vain. ”
"Lord Xie Xiang is so fierce," Mu Hongshang tilted her head and glanced at Xie Shurou, and also showed a cute smile: "My father won't count me down like this." But it doesn't make a difference, my father always treats me like a child, and if he wants him to hear us do this again, he probably wants me not to think about it, and then coax me to play. ”
"Men in this era are always so confident," Xie Shurou snorted lightly, then turned her head to stare at Mu Hongshang, seizing the opportunity to brainwash her: "Hongshang, don't believe their set." Do you remember what your sister did with you? Girls are no worse than boys, and women are no worse than men. ”
Mu Hongshang didn't answer immediately, she was silent for a long, long time before she spoke: "But I can't accompany my brothers and brothers to fight in the north, I still have to marry Jiangnan in the end." ”
Oh, yes...... Xie Shurou's eyes also showed a little depression. Even if they understand these truths, they still can't break free in the end.
"Forget it, let's go," Xie Shurou turned around and took the initiative to take Mu Hongsheng's hand: "Wait for the banquet to start, let's go to the water pavilion." It's too cold, it's not good to walk around outside, and the hand stove is going to be cold. ”
"Hmm." Mu Hongsheng obediently followed Xie Shurou and turned around, and said with a smile: "I don't know if the eldest brother got out without a cherry."
Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, as soon as Mu Hongsheng's words fell, he saw Mu Zhengyi's brows furrowed, and he was striding towards this side. Mu Hongshang was happy when she saw her eldest brother's face, she tugged on Xie Shurou's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Sister Xie, look, my eldest brother's face is dark, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get rid of those clan girls." ”
However, Xie Shurou didn't smile, she turned around directly, stared at Mu Hongshang, and told her again: "Hongshang, you have to tell your eldest brother about Zheng Chongjing's pestering of you just now." ”
"Sister Xie, don't worry," Mu Hongshang smiled heartlessly at Xie Shurou: "I won't be deceived." ”
"I can't rest assured." Xie Shurou stubbornly pulled Mu Hongsheng, pulled her and walked forward: "You are still there, how do you know how bad those people are." ”
Mu Zhengyi saw his sister and Sister Xie standing together, striding over, and happened to hear the second half of Xie Shurou's words. He looked carefully at the smiling sister, as well as Xie Shurou with a cautious face, and couldn't help asking, "Who is bad?" ”
"King Rongkang." Mu Hongshang replied generously.
"King Rongkang?" Mu Zhengyi was stunned for a moment, Zheng Chongjing had a good reputation among the disciples of the sect, and Mu Zhengyi also knew it, just now in the flower hall, the two of them returned a few words.
Therefore, Mu Zhengyi was even more confused about Mu Hongsheng's answer, and he asked with a puzzled face: "Why did King Rongkang become a bad person?" ”
"He just talked to me," Mu Hongshang replied with a smile: "Sister Xie is very unhappy, and she wants me to talk to my brother about this." ”
Mu Zhengyi, who began to lead troops alone at the age of eighteen, is naturally also a very shrewd character, and after he heard his sister's seemingly heartless answer, his eyes suddenly sharpened: "The king of Rongkang just came to you?" ”
"And while the red dress is alone." Xie Shurou immediately added.
She couldn't dig harder for the scumbag: "I'll just turn around, say a word to my brother, and the man will get up." This skirt is smart, and I don't know how long I've been staring at Sister Mu, so I'll go up when I'm free. ”
"I'm only worried," Mu Zhengyi's face darkened, and he replied in a deep tone, "He's not the only smart person. ”
Hearing Mu Zhengyi like this, Xie Shurou was relieved. Fortunately, this eldest brother is very shrewd, and he must be able to protect the red dress well when she can't see it.
