Chapter 42: Misunderstandings are rife
A so-called inseparable, Mu Qing sneered a few times in his heart, although the expression on his face was not revealed, he was very disgusted with Mu Wan in his heart.
When the original body Mu Qing was still there, just by looking at this thin body and the surrounding environment, she knew how badly she was bullied.
It's really shameless to be able to say something inseparable now.
"Even if the sisters in the family are close, now that they are here, they still have to talk about identity and rules, the girl of the Mu family, don't break the rules and tarnish your reputation."
Mrs. Chen's words sounded very harsh, but Mu Wan felt more and more in her heart that this Mrs. Chen must also be biased against Mu Qing, and the more she wanted to smear Mu Qing's reputation in front of these people, so that she could not continue to stay in this circle.
"Before, I just went to persuade my sister to say a few words, after all, now that General Chu is back, my sister ......"
Mu Wan looked around and didn't continue to say anything, because the ladies looked at her as if they looked down on her very much.
Mu Wan didn't know that to these ladies, Mu Wan was a person with poor means.
This kind of blatant way of framing her is really hurting the enemy by a thousand and harming herself by eight hundred, this Mu Wan looks like the eldest lady who has been pampered by the family, and now she actually uses this method to frame her sister.
"Sister, if you're okay, go first, those young ladies are still waiting for you, aren't they? If you want to talk to me, after the banquet is over for a while, you can go back to the house with me to talk about it, after all, it is the wedding banquet of Miss Chen, so it is natural to follow the rules. β
Mu Qing's words were very decent, and it could be said that he not only solved the trouble in front of him, but also gave Mu Wan a step down.
It can be regarded as repaying grievances with virtue, but Mu Wan is still not angry in her heart, and even shows it on her face.
It's just that because of Mrs. Chen's deterrence, she finally left unwillingly.
"This sister of the Third Imperial Concubine is really an eyeless person, and on such a happy day, she actually said such a thing."
One of the ladies said something dissatisfied, although Mrs. Chen's mouth did not continue to say anything, but the look on her face was also a little dissatisfied, Mu Qing knew that this was completely annoying Mrs. Chen.
Although the status of the Chen family is not very high, but because of the relationship between Chen Guifei and the favor in the palace, the status of the Chen family will not be too low, and Mu Wan wants to use the hands of the Chen family to discredit herself at this time, which is really naΓ―ve and ridiculous.
Didn't you end up shooting yourself in the foot?
"My sister was spoiled by her father, and it was inevitable that she would speak a little unruly, so I asked Mrs. Chen to take care of her more."
"I don't have anything to do, I'm still wronged by you, my mother is not here, I guess your life won't be very good."
The mother died early, and the father was not very loving, so such a daughter must not be much better.
At the banquet, although Mu Wan was dismissed by Mrs. Chen, and not many people cared about what she said, but it gradually spread in the capital, and the rumors became more and more widespread, even the Nine Emperors Baili Hong heard about it, and when he saw it in the Three Princes' Mansion, he also asked Mu Qing with some doubts.
"Have you really met with Chu Xuanling? The two of you have an old relationship? β
made my heart a little dissatisfied with this Nine Emperor Prince.
"How can His Royal Highness the Ninth say that, although Niangniang had some friendship with General Chu in the past, but the two of them are innocent, isn't it bad for Miss to say this."
She lowered her voice, looked out the door, and continued to speak when she saw that there was no one.
"And if His Royal Highness the Third Prince hears it, won't it hurt you, Miss."
Mu Qing smiled, and easily removed the golden hairpin on his head, and suddenly felt a lot less burden.
"You don't understand, if the Third Prince didn't doubt me, the Nine Emperors wouldn't have asked at all, the relationship between the two brothers is the best, only if the Third Prince is still suspicious of me, the Nine Emperors will even doubt me, isn't it."
Mu Qing saw this matter thoroughly, even if she had explained it to Bai Lichen several times when she was in the palace, but he obviously didn't trust it.
"That young lady, what should I do, not only His Royal Highness the Nine, but His Royal Highness the Third Prince actually suspects you......"
Even if she is a stupid girl, she knows that her own young lady is relying on the name of His Royal Highness the Third Prince to not be bullied, if she does not have the identity and status of the Third Imperial Princess, Mu Qing's life will not be much better than in the past.
"Don't worry about it for the time being, when I was in the palace that day, I explained it to His Royal Highness several times, he didn't believe it, and I have no other way, I have already talked to General Chu about the matter of the jade pendant, as long as the jade pendant comes back, how can I meet with that General Chu again in the future?"
Mu Qing narrowed his eyes and carefully examined his face in the mirror.
The appearance of the original body is delicate, but the original body looks very thin, and it is a little less beautiful.
During this time, she ate better in the Three Princes' Mansion, and her body was a lot rounder, and she looked a little more charming than in the past.
Even Xin'er couldn't help but praise twice.
"Miss has seen a lot more now than in the past, which makes the slave and maid envious."
"Third Highness!"
Before Mu Qing could change his clothes and go to bed, there was a commotion outside, and before Mu Qing let Xin'er go out to take a look, the people outside walked in, and it was Bailichen.
He was really drunk tonight, different from when he was in the palace before, and now Bai Lichen's face was a little drunk, and there was a smell of alcohol between his actions, which made Mu Qing frown in disgust.
"Your Highness!"
Danqing chased Bai Lichen in, he couldn't look at Mu Qing directly, so he could only lower his head and explain.
"The Third Highness has drunk a few more glasses with the Fourth Highness and the Ninth Highness today, and please don't blame the mother, it's the slave who is not optimistic about the Third Highness."
"Nothing." Mu Qing sighed softly, "Take good care of the Third Highness, lest Ming'er get up with a hangover and a headache." β
Danqing answered, and was about to leave with Bai Lichen, although he knew that the latter did not move.
"Third Highness?"
Danqing had a bad premonition, and he dared to pull Bai Lichen's sleeve.
"Go out, I want to talk to the imperial concubine."
"But Your Highness ......"
"I said, let you out." When Bai Lichen looked like this, Mu Qing really hadn't seen it.
The people in the house were all startled, and they all left the house one after another, only Xin'er still endured and didn't want to leave, for fear that Mu Qing would encounter some danger.
"Let's go, I'll talk to the third prince alone."
Mu Qing sighed, but still sent his heart away.
Suddenly, there were only two people left in the room, Bai Lichen and Mu Qing.
Although he took the initiative to come here to talk to Mu Qing, after a long time, he still didn't say anything, and the two of them just looked at each other, and the atmosphere was awkward and a little helpless.
"I've already guessed what Your Highness is going to say."
Mu Qing didn't even bother to say the word 'concubine', she knew that Bai Lichen had always thought that there was something between him and Chu Xuanling.
She was very tired of explaining, and there was a bit of impatience between her words.
If it is changed to whom, this has been explained a thousand and eight hundred times, and if the other party does not believe it, it will not continue to be explained.
"Third Highness, I don't think I have done anything sorry for you, you did save my life before, but in order to let the greedy doctor save your life, I have given him all my gold and silver, which is considered to be flattened."
The implication is that Mu Qing really doesn't want Bailichen to continue to entangle himself in this matter.
ββ¦β¦ What are you going to do with all that money? β
When he asked this, Bai Lichen was laughing at himself in his heart, what else could he do?
Isn't it to leave his side, to leave the Three Princes' Mansion, and to leave the huge cage of the capital?
Who knew that Mu Qing answered very simply.
"It's just because I like money, and for no other reason."
Hearing this, Bai Lichen was really completely stunned.
Mu Qing's answer was very casual, obviously not lying.
It's just that this likes money, what is the reason for this.
"Look, Your Highness, if you don't believe me, why do you come to ask me? When I was in the palace before, I have explained to you many times, there is no personal relationship between me and Chu Xuanling, but have you ever believed me? β
Mu Qing has always known how to be polite in front of Bailichen, and it is rare to be so excited.
If she had come earlier, she would have really wanted to marry Chu Xuanling, even if she was the same as Bai Lichen, she was the object she didn't love, but it was much better than this scheming and suspicious third prince.
This appearance is obviously angry, but Bai Lichen, who was originally questioning the other side, was stunned for a moment and became the side that was questioned.
"It's not like I don't believe you."
His spirit was a little sober, and he regretted that he was instigated by the fourth brother today, and drank a few more glasses of wine, so he did such a gaffe - breaking into the princess's bedroom when he was about to go to bed.
"Today, I was abrupt."
Bailichen rarely has this kind of embarrassment, and most of the time he is forbearant and restrained.
After saying this, he turned around and left Mu Qing's bedroom, and the faces of Danqing and Xin'er outside were not very good, as if they were worried that their master would quarrel.
Who knows how to do a few words, I saw the Third Highness walk out in a hurry, and his face seemed to be a little better than Fang Cai.
"Your Highness...... Where are the three imperial concubines? Danqing asked tentatively.
"Let's go."
Spit out a word coldly, and before Danqing had time to react, Bai Lichen left Muqing's courtyard with wind-like steps.
"Mother?"
Xin'er walked into the room and saw her master sitting at the table, gulping down the tea on the table.
"Closing the door, it's really making people angry for no reason, and saying these things to me inexplicably, the mood of a bad person."
