Chapter 106: Pretending to be pitiful
The fate between Tianqing and Mu Wan began when he was hunted down by the enemy ten years ago.
He is a killer who was temporarily hidden in the Mu family's mansion ten years ago because of his injuries, and was rescued by a woman before he fell into a coma.
After waking up, she found that this woman was Mu Wan, the eldest lady of the Mu family, and since then she has fallen in love with her life-saving benefactor Mu Wan.
Originally, he had already washed his hands and retired to the rivers and lakes, and he had not killed anyone for many years, but after receiving Mu Wan's letterhead this time, he still returned to the capital.
Since she wants to help kill people herself, Tianqing will naturally not refuse.
Although Bailichen's mansion was very heavily guarded, he still had many opportunities to find Mu Qing.
And now Mu Qing didn't know that she had been targeted, and what she wanted to do now was to win over Princess Jade, so she went to the palace, saying that she was going to accompany the Queen Mother to worship the Buddha.
The Queen Mother hadn't seen Mu Qing for a long time, and Mu Qing had been saying that she was sick at home.
"Good boy, come over and show the mourning family, this is sick, why do you lose so much weight? Did the mourning family eat all the supplements that the palace people had sent over? The mourning family ate those, but they felt that this old bone looked a lot better. ”
Mu Qing actually felt a little guilty when he saw the Queen Mother's care for him.
After all, the Queen Mother really cares about herself, and her condition is actually not that serious, she just moved some hands and feet on her makeup, making herself look pale and thin.
And she is deliberately wearing clothes that are one size bigger today, and it looks like she has lost a lot of weight, and even Xin'er was taken aback when she saw it.
Not to mention the Queen Mother.
"By the way, I heard that Her Royal Highness the princess came to visit the courtiers, but the courtiers were resting at that time, and Her Royal Highness the princess kindly did not disturb the courtiers, and the courtiers are in good shape today, and they have never seen Her Royal Highness the princess before......"
Mu Qing deliberately brought up the matter of the Jade Princess, and the Queen Mother thought about it and instructed the palace maid to invite the Jade Princess over.
Originally, it was Mu Qing who saved the Jade Princess before, so she felt that the Jade Princess should thank Mu Qing in person.
"The mourning family knows that Yu'er's child can't stand you before, she was spoiled by us, and the mourning family asked her to compensate you."
Although the Queen Mother's words were a little protective of the Jade Princess, they also gave Mu Qing enough face.
Mu Qing hurriedly shook his head.
"What did the Queen Mother say, it is what the courtiers should do to save the princess, but Her Royal Highness the princess's legs and feet are a little slower, so the rescuers came late, and Her Royal Highness the princess was already frightened, and she can still think of finding someone to save the courtiers, and the courtiers should thank Princess Yu."
As soon as she walked into the palace of the Queen Mother, Princess Jade heard Mu Qing's words to defend herself, and she felt even more uncomfortable in her heart for a while.
At the beginning, it was clear that she left Mu Qing behind, but in Mu Qing's mouth, she asked for help in order to save Mu Qing.
"Yu'er has seen the imperial grandmother and the third imperial concubine."
Thinking of this, the Jade Princess was not even like when she saw Mu Qing just now, but she saluted Mu Qing politely, and this scene was seen in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and she also nodded with satisfaction.
"Yu'er, come and see your third sister-in-law, seeing that she has lost a lot of weight, I don't know if this tonic is not right, but it is the mourning family, all the brains have been given, you should ask the imperial doctor."
"The Queen Mother gave supplements to the courtiers, it is the blessing of the courtiers, these supplements are the best, Qing Ziran is a good doctor with the three princes, even he said so."
Hearing this, the Jade Princess glanced at Mu Qing above, and saw that Mu Qing's face was indeed very bad, and the guilt in her heart deepened.
The Queen Mother is old, although she has the heart to talk to the two juniors more, but her body is tired, so she rested early, leaving Mu Qing and Princess Jade to walk in the back garden together.
"Third Emperor Sister-in-law, thank you for saving me before, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have ......"
Thinking of the scene that day, the Jade Princess was still a little scared in her heart.
"It's okay, I should have saved you, the princess, and when I saw that the jade princess was fine, I was relieved, ahem."
Mu Qing said this, and even coughed violently twice, quite like he fell down when he saw the wind, and the jade princess over there saw it, and hurriedly helped Mu Qing to the pavilion on the side.
"Third Emperor Sister-in-law, are you okay? Isn't there going to be a root cause? What did the Divine Doctor say? ”
The princess's tone was very anxious, and it seemed that she really cared about Mu Qing.
"Your Royal Highness the princess doesn't have to worry about it, naturally it's not a big deal, it's just that my body is weak, so the recovery period is longer, it's okay, cough cough, I will naturally recover in a while."
Hearing this, the Jade Princess's heart was slightly relieved, if Mu Qing continued to be sick like this, she would definitely feel very guilty.
"But Her Royal Highness the Princess, I still have to remind you a few words, you are still young and easy to be taken advantage of, I don't care, I'm just worried that Her Royal Highness the Princess will be framed by the villain again, after all, not every time someone will rescue Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Mu Qing deliberately said these words at this time, just to make the Jade Princess suspect the queen.
"What do you mean......"
"Princess, you should believe in the Third Highness, he has absolutely no reason to harm you, the matter of him taking you out of the palace is only known to the three of us, as well as the loyal people around His Royal Highness the Third Prince, if it is not a very powerful person, how can he find out this news?"
Mu Qing's words and sentences point to the queen.
But the Jade Princess has some feelings with the queen, so naturally she will not think about it easily.
Mu Qing was not in a hurry for a while, she just needed to slowly guide the Jade Princess to suspect the people over there.
"I just said these words to remind Her Royal Highness the princess to be careful, but I don't mean anything else, after all, in this deep palace, Her Royal Highness the princess does not have the protection of the mother, fortunately, the queen mother loves Her Royal Highness, and the emperor is the same."
This is the only one who missed the queen.
Seeing that the Jade Princess already had some doubts in her heart, in order not to let the Jade Princess question her intentions, Mu Qing withdrew her words, only changed the topic, and talked about some trivial things.
"It's really a pity that Her Royal Highness the princess didn't leave the palace this time, it's a busy city outside the palace now, there are a lot of small vendors, and the delicious food and fun among the common people are all here."
These words successfully aroused the curiosity of the Jade Princess, and after a conversation, she was not only full of gratitude to Mu Qing in her heart, but also a little intimate.
Seeing that the time was not early, the Jade Princess ordered her subordinates to send Mu Qing out.
After Mu Qing's carriage left the palace, the maid beside the Jade Princess couldn't help but ask.
"The slave and maid are not bad people when they look at these three imperial concubines, why does the young lady of the Shen family say that the three imperial concubines are not good in front of your Royal Highness the princess."
Hearing the palace maid's words, the Jade Princess's eyes sank.
Although she is young and is well protected by the Empress Dowager, she doesn't know how to know the people in the palace.
"Miss Shen must have said these words in front of me only because of the jealousy between women, but this is a bit too much."
Hearing this, the palace maid hesitated, and her princess even changed her title of Miss Shen.
"If Miss Shen wants to enter the palace again in the future......
"Let's just say that this princess doesn't have time, and she is busy talking to the imperial grandmother, just shirk it, do you want this princess to teach you."
She has always been rude and willful, saying one thing is another, and the palace maid didn't dare to refute it, so she hurriedly answered yes and retreated.
Collecting the matter of the Jade Princess, Mu Qing can be said to have achieved his goal in the original way, and he didn't even spend much thought.
At this time, Mu Qingzheng was lazily leaning on the side of the carriage, watching the stalls and vendors outside from the cracks in the curtains, and he could even smell the fragrance of the wonton stalls and the fragrance coming from those restaurants.
Where is there still the weak and pitiful appearance that Fang just pretended to be in front of the Jade Princess.
Her body has already recovered, and there are no other problems except for some pain in her legs and feet.
"Niangniang, will this jade princess really stand on Niangniang's side, the slave maid looked, the princess seemed to be very close to Miss Shen."
Xin'er asked in a whisper.
"Of course it will, what about a good relationship, the most important thing for people is not their own life, you just look at me, even if I love money, but life is still put first, no life, no matter how much money there is, there is no place to use it, right?"
No matter how brutal and willful the princess is, her life still comes first.
That's why she has a good impression of herself, the life-saving benefactor, and will be affected by her words and suspicions of Shen Shuang'er and the queen.
Before, Shen Shuang'er was able to do things at the banquet, so she naturally couldn't do without the help of the Jade Princess, but now Mu Qing wants to see how Shen Shuang'er can do it in the palace without the help of the Jade Princess.
Thinking of this, Mu Qing suddenly felt that there was a sight watching her in the distance, she opened the curtain violently and looked at the roof of the restaurant behind her.
It was empty, except for the light of dusk shining on the bricks.
"Mother, what's wrong, what's up there?"
I looked at it suspiciously, but there was nothing.
"It's fine." Mu Qing lowered the curtain strangely, she seemed to feel that someone outside was watching her?
"Maybe it's an illusion, go back quickly, I feel a little strange, maybe the queen's people are still staring at me secretly."
Startled by these words, Xin'er hurriedly told the coachman to go back quickly.
Bai Lichen has been waiting for Mu Qing at home for a long time, although Mu Qing's body is already very good, but now he looked at his subordinates and said, Mu Qing's face was very pale, and he was a little annoyed when he went out like this.
Who knew that after Mu Qing entered the door, Bai Lichen actually looked like she was jumping around when she saw her, where was her pale face?
And after he looked at Mu Qing's sleeve and rubbed it on her face, her face lost a little color.
"Bailichen, what are you doing here?"
Mu Qing and Bai Lichen have a lot of intimacy, and she is not unfamiliar with calling His Royal Highness.
"I'm watching a monkey show."
With a faint word, Bai Lichen went back, leaving only Mu Qing with a blank face.
