Chapter Eighty-Eight: No Home at Night
I didn't sleep well all night last night, and I dealt with things in the yard in the morning, Mu Ningxuan was a little tired.
After lunch, I lay down on the couch and fell asleep after a while.
"County Lord, wake up."
In a daze, Mu Ningxuan seemed to hear Yutang calling her.
Mu Ningxuan opened her eyes and said lazily: "What's wrong with Yutang?" ”
"County Lord, Master Hou sent Steward Cao over and told you to come over now." Yutang said while helping Mu Ningxuan up.
"Father came to me?" Mu Ningxuan's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, is there still a moth? "Did Steward Cao say what was the matter?"
"No, Steward Cao only said that you should go to the front hall, and didn't say anything else." Yutang shook his head.
Mu Ningxuan didn't think much about it, sorted out her clothes and took Yutang over.
Along the way, Mu Ningxuan's right eye kept jumping, and she had a bad premonition. So he instructed Yutang: "Wait a minute, you listen more at the door, if you hear me and the Hou Ye arguing, you can hurry up and ask the princess to come over." ”
"Yes." Yutang was puzzled and said: "County Lord, why don't you call your eldest brother over, isn't he more protective of you, County Lord?" ”
Mu Ningxuan said lightly: "Big brother is going to Zizhou tonight, don't let him know that it will only add to his troubles." Besides, the princess is sensible and will speak for me. ”
In this life, Mu Ningxuan wants her eldest brother and third sister to be carefree and smooth, so she doesn't want to involve her eldest brother, whether it is to investigate her mother's affairs or this time.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the study, Mu Ningxuan heard the voice of the third aunt. I didn't think it was good at the moment, but I still went in hard.
Mu Ningxuan saluted, and said, "Xuan'er greets my father, third uncle, and third aunt." ”
Muhou Ye's face was dark and calm, and the third uncle and third aunt were silent.
Mu Ningxuan stood in the middle, not knowing what the situation was.
Mu Hou Ye spoke first: "Don't say Yu Pei in advance, let me ask you, where did you go yesterday?" ”
"Where did you go? Father, I don't understand what you mean. Mu Ningxuan was confused.
Could it be that Guo Xiaoniang sent someone to follow her yesterday and knew that she was with the little prince? This is not right, if this is the case, why did Guo Xiaoniang let the third uncle and the third aunt take the jade pendant to slander her early in the morning!
Mu Hou Ye said angrily: "Still not telling the truth? ”
"My daughter doesn't know what to tell the truth, I really didn't be with the so-called man in the mouth of the third uncle and third aunt yesterday." Mu Ningxuan tried her best to hide the anger in her heart.
The third aunt saw Mu Ningxuan mention her, so she opened her mouth and said, "Xuan'er, yesterday I and your third uncle really misunderstood, the person in the temple is not you. ”
Mu Ningxuan was stunned, why did the third uncle and the third aunt suddenly change their words?
"Since you admit that you have seen the wrong person, what are you asking me again?" Mu Ningxuan's tone of voice to the third aunt was unceremoniously.
"Presumptuous! Do you talk to your elders like that? The third uncle stood up suddenly, pointed at Mu Ningxuan's nose and said, "After all these years in the palace, have you learned the rules in vain?" Does the official family appointing you as the county lord make you arrogant to your elders? ”
Mu Ningxuan sneered again and again: "Third uncle, you and the third aunt ran to my father early in the morning to wronged me, can't I even be angry?" ”
The third aunt said softly: "Xuan'er, we also care about you so we came to tell your father, if it is someone else, we won't care at all." I have no enmity with your third uncle and you, how can I deliberately wronged you, if there is a feud, we will already be all over the street to talk about you, won't your reputation be directly ruined?
It is true that we saw the wrong person yesterday, but when your father came to us to theorize, it happened that Master Puyuan in the temple was also there, and he told us that there was no female benefactor surnamed Mu who stayed in the temple yesterday.
Xuan'er, where did you go last night when you were a girl? Why don't you go home at night? ”
