Chapter Thirty-Eight: Awkwardness

Bailichen's study has always been incense, and it is said that the divine doctor Qing Ziran put some medicinal materials that are good for Bailichen's body.

Therefore, there is a faint smell of medicine in this incense, which makes Mu Qing's mind a little calmer.

"Why are you here?"

Bai Lichen didn't look up, he was sitting on the couch, looking at the book in his hand.

Mu Qing will also look at the books of this dynasty in his spare time, but he can't read too profound, and the one in his hand is obviously not within the scope of Mu Qing's choice.

"Didn't you say, let's go into the palace together and take a look at the Queen Mother? The pastries in Cining Palace are not very sweet, but I like to eat them very much. ”

Mu Qing didn't mention those things just now, and only talked about entering the palace to see the Queen Mother, Bai Lichen felt a little funny in his heart.

Doesn't this girl know what she means? but also ran in front of himself with those words to beg for coincidence.

"It's just to call your sister who doesn't know the rules back, but you're serious."

When he said this, there was a bit of dissatisfaction in his words that he didn't even hear.

"But it's true that I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a long time, and you also know that my mother died early, and my stepmother Liu didn't care much about me, and my father was busy with business.

This is pitiful, even if Bai Lichen knows that Mu Qing's words are true and false, he is still a little moved in his heart.

When he looked up, he saw that Mu Qing was still stirring his fingers at this time, and his face seemed to be a little pitiful, so he softened a little.

"Since you want to visit the palace, then it's better to go."

"I'm just a princess after all, if you don't enter the palace with me, I'm afraid those people will talk nonsense again."

The identity of her mother's family is there, and if she is not married to the third prince, she is not qualified to see the queen mother.

“…… That's it. ”

Seeing Bai Lichen sigh and get up, Mu Qing knew that his goal had been achieved.

She is bound to take this opportunity to explain Chu Xuanling's affairs clearly.

The more things drag on, it will only make people with intentions take advantage of it, and make Bai Lichen suspect that he is having an affair with Chu Xuanling.

If it makes a big fuss and reaches the ears of the emperor and the queen mother, with the status of his mother's family, where can he have a good life?

She also wants to earn a lot of silver, and live her own small life in a chic manner in the future, but she can't have an accident before the goal is achieved.

The queen mother was alone in the palace, fighting with those concubines in her early years, and finally made her son the emperor.

The emperor is filial, she lives a comfortable life, but without the people to talk to her, she is a little lonely.

"The mourning family is happy to see you, the first to accompany the mourning family's palace maid Aunt Rong, in her early years her legs and feet were not good, the mourning family was reluctant to let her continue to work, and sent her out of the palace to recuperate, and she entered the palace once a month."

The Queen Mother touched Mu Qing's hand, looked at her thin and small appearance, and ordered the palace maid below to bring a lot of food.

"Imperial grandmother, when Qing'er was at home, she always thought about the delicious snacks here from the imperial grandmother, and pestered her grandson to enter the palace to visit the imperial grandmother."

When Mu Qing saw Bai Lichen's sick and gentle young man, he couldn't help muttering a few words in his heart.

He didn't say a word to himself in the carriage just now, and warned himself with a cold face not to try to curry favor with the queen mother.

Now it's a different face.

"Qing girl, it turns out that you are hungry for the snacks in the mourning palace, and the mourning family thinks that you want to talk to the old woman of the mourning family."

The Queen Mother pretended to be annoyed, and Mu Qing followed her words and admitted a few wrong sentences just right, and for a while, there was a burst of laughter in Cining Palace.

Before the Jade Princess stepped into the gate of Cining Palace, she could faintly hear the noise inside.

"What's going on here, I haven't heard of any lady coming to visit the emperor's grandmother today."

The mothers in the palace can please the queen mother, and the only ones who are Chen Guifei and a few concubines of the queen mother's own family are Chen Guifei.

The little eunuch over there was busy and greeted him.

"I've seen the Jade Princess, and in it are His Royal Highness the Three Princes and the Three Imperial Concubines, these three Imperial Concubines have clever mouths, and they are very liked by the Queen Mother."

"Hmph, clever words, just one mouth can turn the sky upside down."

Thinking of the events at the banquet that day, the Jade Princess's face was not very good, she raised her legs and walked in quickly, and the faces of the palace maids and grandmothers who followed behind her were not very good, for fear that her master would make something happen in the Queen Mother's palace.

"Imperial Grandmother!"

The jade princess was used to being favored, and before she arrived in the palace, she heard a delicate voice accompanied by a short running sound.

The jade princess hurriedly ran to the palace, as if she hadn't seen Mu Qing, and suddenly pounced on the queen mother.

"Why is Yu'er so unruly, and she hasn't seen your third brother and third sister-in-law first."

Although the Queen Mother said this, there was no blame between her words.

The Jade Princess happily greeted Bai Lichen, but there was still a lot of dissatisfaction in Mu Qing's eyes.

It seems that even if she broke the rumor that she was a talented woman at the banquet, she still couldn't make the youngest princess in the royal family have some kindness to her.

"Now that Her Royal Highness the princess has come down, it won't be early, and it's time for the third prince to go back to the house to take medicine."

Mu Qing was not in a hurry to have a good relationship with the little princess, so he smiled slightly, and then left the queen mother's palace with the third prince.

"You're using me as a reason to use it handy."

Although what Bai Lichen said in his mouth was sarcastic, he did not show the intention of blaming Mu Qing.

"The reason why Princess Jade is hostile to me is that I think it should be inseparable from the young lady of the Shen family."

Speaking of this, Mu Qing couldn't help but complain a little about the seemingly cold man in front of him, "Miss Shen seems to have some meaning to His Highness." ”

"Isn't the relationship between the Third Imperial Concubine and General Chu the same, but it blames the prince."

When Bai Lichen said this, his face naturally didn't look good, Mu Qing was choked like this, and he didn't speak anymore, just stayed in his position honestly.

This is said in a hurry, and Bai Lichen himself knows it.

At least Mu Qing is very well-behaved after marrying into the prince's mansion, and he has never overstepped the rules, Bai Lichen feels that he really shouldn't show such an expression with Mu Qing.

But I don't know why, but whenever he thinks that his concubine may have a secret relationship with that heroic young general, Bai Lichen's heart can't suppress his anger.

Chu Xuanling is indeed a better choice than himself.

"He is a healthy man, and he is still the general of the Baili Kingdom, if he follows him, he must have a much better life than in my nominal prince's mansion."

Bai Lichen added again, he didn't look at Mu Qing's eyes, he just stared at the scroll in his hand, wanting to divert some attention.

It wasn't until the books in his hand were grabbed that he raised his head slightly, only to find that Mu Qing was asleep against the wall of the car next to him, and he suddenly felt a little helpless in his heart.

His anger that he didn't know where it came from seemed to have been sprinkled on cotton, and there was no response at all.

The wood on the other end was sleeping by himself, and when he woke up, the sky was already bright.

Maybe it's because the original owner Mu Qing's body is relatively weak, she often gets sleepy when she rides in the carriage, and on weekdays, she will pant whenever she walks a few more steps, and she looks a little more delicate than Bai Lichen in her illness.

She really couldn't figure out why Qin Tianjian felt that her life was in line with the life of the three princes.

Isn't it true that two sick seedlings are paired together will only make the condition worse?

In a blink of an eye, it was only a few days, and it was time for the celebration banquet in the palace.

Thinking of the last Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, Mu Qing had points and relatives, but fortunately, it seemed that the last time it worked, this time when she went to the embroidery room to customize clothes, no one came to grab clothes with her.

"Niangniang, slave maid, look, you must be the most beautiful at the banquet in this dress."

Xin'er carefully held the dress in her hand, and put on the wooden Qing that gave the bath one by one.

"I'm not a young lady to be married, what do you do with this best-looking thing? It's just that they used to look down on the wood...... The young ladies who look down on me know that I am not just some 'vase' as they say. ”

At the mention of this nickname, Xin'er's heart was a little resentful.

"Although Miss said that the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting did not pinch the tip in the past, but it was also a pile of piles and pieces, and it was definitely not as good as the legend outside, and I don't know which person spread it out indiscriminately, and it ruined Miss's reputation like this."

After saying this, the little girl was happy again.

"Fortunately, Niangniang is now married to the third prince, and this life is better than before, I don't know how much!"

Good days?

Mu Qing raised an eyebrow.

This day is indeed a lot better than in the past, but Bailichen's personality is uncertain, and Mu Qing is not sure what kind of attitude he has towards him.

Take Chu Xuanling's matter as an example, she hasn't explained it at all, the other party seems to have done something rebellious, and she hasn't met with her for several days.

During this meal, Danqing would come over and bring Bailichen's meal to the room alone, and say, 'The master has official business to deal with these days'.

The emperor is really willing to send so many official duties to his sick son!

is clearly to avoid her, the imperial concubine.

"After today's banquet, you will make an appointment with General Chu for me."

Mu Qing lowered his voice and said this while combing his hair.

"Mother?"

It seems that he has thought of something, and Xin'er's eyes are a little incredible.

"Don't think too much, it's just to get the jade pendant back, if the left and right have been in the hands of General Chu, it is hard to guarantee that there will not be any treacherous villains who will use this to make a fuss in the future and slander the reputation of the two of us, you also know that there are many people in the Mu family who know about this matter."

Xin'er breathed a sigh of relief, obviously worried that his master was still in love, and wanted to renew the old relationship with General Chu.
