Chapter 148: Partial Oblivion
"Your Majesty, the murderer of the crown prince has been found." The queen's voice was very calm.
"Oh?" The official family was obviously a little unhappy, and the queen should have told him privately when she found the murderer. Even if he stays at Concubine Zhuang these days, the queen should not go directly to the palace.
Speaking of which, the queen's move is also helpless, involving two princes, if the queen does not show her feelings to the public, it is very likely that the official family will suppress the prince's murder case in order to weigh the pros and cons.
In this way, she can't appeal for the wrongful death of Chong'er, she can only watch the murderer get away with it in vain, and she is more likely to be loved by the official family, and her ascension to the throne is unknown.
The queen would rather offend the official family this time than let her Chong'er die tragically in vain!
"The murderer has been held outside the palace, and His Majesty can pass him in." The queen faced the official family and said slowly.
The ministers of the palace secretly look at me, I look at you, very curious but dare not make a sound.
The official nodded and said, "Pass." ”
After a while, the guards pressed Zhu Xuan into the main hall.
Zhu Xuan was very honest and fearless, and in a few words, he told how he killed the prince and why he killed the prince, and identified the people behind him as the third prince and the fifth prince on the spot.
Hearing that it was the third and fifth children who bought the murderer behind them, the official family immediately blackened his face, and then he understood the queen's intentions, and he was even more angry in his heart.
The official didn't speak for a long time, in fact, a few days ago, he heard that the queen asked someone to surround the fifth child's Shu Wangfu, and the fifth child was raised by the queen, so he didn't intervene much in this matter, and he never thought that it was related to the prince's case.
There are witnesses and letters, and the third prince and the fifth prince can hardly escape the responsibility.
What to do? There are times when the official family makes difficulties, if they deal with the third and fifth children in accordance with the law.
Then, looking at the heirs of the official family, the official family can only appoint the six princes as the crown prince, which is extremely unwilling of the official family!
The official family only locked the three princes and the five princes together in the Zongren Mansion first, and then made a decision!
***
Shu Wangfu.
The five princes were very confused about what happened in the court and Zhu Xuan's identification letters, it was clear that he was the only one who killed the prince, why were the three princes also involved, why did Zhu Xuan pull the three princes, the five princes don't know, but they don't have to know.
Originally, he thought that everything was seamless, and no one would find out the truth.
Later, he was used as a puppet by the queen and tried his best to push him to the position of the crown prince, what if he was a puppet, when he sat on the throne, who would dare to underestimate him!
Over the years, the five princes have been living in the shadows, whether it is the shadow of the third prince or the shadow of the crown prince.
He was bullied by the prince when he urinated, and what he wanted to do most in his life was to kill the arrogant and arrogant prince! He did it, and even if the East Window incident happened, there was nothing to regret.
***
The three princes and Zhuang Guifei are really wronged, but what can they do, the three princes can't face the saint in the Zongren Mansion. Concubine Zhuang also couldn't see the official family.
The murder of the prince has come to light, and the murderer has already been sentenced to death by the officials, but the two behind the instigators, but the officials have never been killed.
Mu Ningxuan was very entangled, if the official family let the three princes go like this, then wouldn't she spend 100,000 taels of silver in vain~
***
In this life, Mu Ningyin was treated by Mu Hou Ye in advance.
However, it was Princess Gao Rou who came out first, and under the pressure of Princess Gao Rou, the maid Chunling next to Mu Ningyin explained that Mu Ningyin delivered the news to the Guo family during this time, including about Mu Ningxuan's letting people go to the market to buy cold drinks every day some time ago and Mu Ningxuan's return home after falling off a cliff.
It was because the Guo family knew that Mu Ningxuan was interested in cold drinks, so they told the third prince who was still the king of Jin at the time, and the third prince arranged the "ice banquet".
After Chunling explained everything, Mu Ningyin refused to admit it.
Princess Gao Rou is a fiery straight person, and she is very annoyed by Mu Ningyin's behavior of doing something wrong, not only not admitting her mistakes, but also denying it.
"Let me ask you again, do you admit to what Chunling said?" Princess Gao Rou had lost her patience.
"What's going on? Why is there such a big anger on Yin'er? "Mu Hou Ye has just gone down to the court, and as soon as he returned to the house, he heard Steward Cao say that Princess Gao Rou was angry in the side hall, so he hurried over.
"Father, Yin'er was wronged, and when they saw that I had no little mother, they came together to bully me."
Without Guo Xiaoniang's protection, Mu Ningyin still thinks that she is one of her father's favorite daughters, thinking that her father is still helping her.
Hearing Mu Ningyin mention Guo Xiaoniang at once, Mu Houye was also angry in an instant, and shouted: "Shut up!" ”
Mu Ningyin was frightened, lowered her head, and didn't dare to speak again.
Princess Gao Rou asked Chunling to tell Mu Hou Ye the truth again.
When Mu Houye heard the news about Mu Ningxuan asking his subordinates to go to the market to buy cold drinks some time ago and Mu Ningxuan falling off a cliff and returning home, he was immediately furious: "You bad thing!" After scolding, Mu Hou Ye felt uneasy, and kicked Mu Ningyin again.
Mu Ningyin's whole body trembled with shoulder pain, and seeing that Mu Hou Ye was serious, Mu Ningyin didn't dare to quibble, crying and begging for mercy: "Father, Yin'er knows it's wrong, and Yin'er doesn't dare anymore." ”
"You bastard, you might as well die with your little mother!" The green tendons on Mu Houye's forehead burst out, and he said angrily.
"Father, do you want Yin'er to die?" Mu Ningyin burst into tears.
Seeing that Mu Hou Ye was about to kick Mu Ningyin again, Princess Gao Rou hurriedly stopped her.
"Master Hou, what are you going to do, the girls make mistakes, punish and teach well, kick to death like this, even if you don't die, you will be crippled.
If this matter is spread out, whose daughter will dare to marry the Marquis of Pyeongchang Mansion in the future, and whose brother will dare to marry the girl in the mansion? If it affects the eldest brother's imminent marriage, it will be troublesome. ”
Originally, Princess Gao Rou just wanted to teach Mu Ningyin a lesson, so that Mu Ningyin could obey the discipline well. I didn't expect Mu Ningye to be so deadly, and she, the housewife, could only protect her.
Mu Hou Ye knew that what Princess Gao Rou said was reasonable, but he was still very angry, kicked the table hard, and the table fell to the ground on the spot, and then left without looking back.
Mu Ningyin was unlucky this time, and it was useless for Princess Gao Rou to intercede.
In order to prevent this fool from marrying out and losing his face in the future, Mu Houye actually asked Mu Ningyin to cut his hair and become a nun and practice at home.
In other words, Mu Ningyin's life is over, and she will be trapped in the Pingchang Marquis Mansion for the rest of her life until she dies of old age.
***
Mu Ningxuan remembers many things, but there are some things she doesn't remember, maybe it's because of rebirth~
***
It's the annual Qixi Festival again.
Mu Ningxuan had heard Feng's mother say in the palace that the Qixi Festival is also called the Qiqiao Festival, where people beg at night to worship the morning glory Vega.
Ordinary people have to sweep the courtyard on this day to welcome the festival. The rich and noble families will put on a feast, set up a colorful building called "Qiqiao Building" in the courtyard, the pavilion is full of all kinds of exquisite gadgets, exquisite food, women look at the moon and wear needles, burn incense and worship, take a "Qiqiao" good intentions head.
In addition to these, on the day of the Qixi Festival, the street market is also very lively, the streets and alleys shout one after another, there are those who sell food, some sell fun, and some perform juggling... The whole nine yards!
After dinner, Princess Gao Rou smiled at Mu Ningxuan and Mu Ningjia: "Today is the Qixi Festival, if you want to go to the market, go there." ”
"Remember to come back early." Mu Hou Ye hummed.
Mu Ningjia didn't want to go out, only Mu Ningxuan happily went.
At the beginning of the lanterns, Mu Ningxuan, who was wearing a hat, walked in the noisy street market, and along the way, all kinds of beautiful scenery and delicacies dazzled Xiaofu who followed Mu Ningxuan.
"County Lord, you look at this sugar man like you!" Xiaofu picked up the candy man and said to Mu Ningxuan.
"Buy!"
"County Lord, this rouge color looks so good!" Xiaofu said excitedly.
"Buy!"
"County Lord, you see how beautiful this bead hairpin is!" Xiaofu brought a pale pink bead hairpin to Mu Ningxuan.
"Buy!"
"County Lord, there is actually a little rabbit river lantern!" Xiaofu excitedly ran to the stall selling lanterns.
"Buy!"
"County Lord, rock sugar gourd..."Xiaofu swallowed.
"Buy!"
"County Lord, I can't even take it." Xiaofu is eating a rock sugar gourd in her mouth, holding a candy man in her left hand, a rabbit river lantern in her right hand, and wrapped rouge and beads.
Mu Ningxuan smiled and was just about to speak when she heard another voice sound.
"It's a blessing for your maid to meet such a master as you." The little prince looked at Mu Ningxuan with a smile on his face.
Mu Ningxuan said in her heart: It should be that I am not blessed to meet such a master, Xiaofu was so miserable in the previous life~
"Little Lord." Mu Ningxuan saluted.
"You don't have to salute the king outside." The little prince held Mu Ningxuan and said: "Recently, there have been many people in the capital, and this king has gone south and north to know a little better, and the official family is afraid that they will fight and make trouble on the Qixi Festival, so they sent this king to take a look." ”
"Oh!" Mu Ningxuan nodded, and suddenly said "Huh", "Little Wangye, I am wearing a hat, how can you still recognize me?" ”
The little prince smiled: "Not to mention that this king recognizes the maid next to you, that is, the last time you went to Songhe Restaurant with Rong Jing of the Lin'an Hou Mansion to see Boss Zhang, this king recognized you at a sight." ”
Mu Ningxuan immediately defended: "We are not here to see Boss Zhang of Songhe Restaurant, we are going to invite a chef." ”
"Really?" The little prince stared at Mu Ningxuan and laughed evilly.
Mu Ningxuan's heart was weak, and she said steadily: "I don't remember what that Boss Zhang looks like." ”
The little prince was very satisfied and said: "Since you have met this king, then help this king cover up and go shopping with this king." ”
"Huh?" Before Mu Ningxuan could react, she was pulled by the wrist of the little prince and continued to walk forward.
Although others can't tell who she is with a hat, it is not good to be pulled by the little prince on the street like this.
What's more, how can anyone hold hands directly without the woman's consent, even if it's not a handle, it's not okay to pull the wrist!
Mu Ningxuan didn't break free a few times, and just as she wanted to phrase the little prince to let go, she heard the voices of three men who looked fierce and vicious coming towards her.
"Little Prince!" The three of them bowed respectfully to the little prince.
The little prince nodded, and the three of them left.
After walking a few more steps, two more Jianghu people saluted and greeted the little prince.
The little prince still nodded, with no expression on his face.
Almost every ten or so steps, someone will take the initiative to greet the little prince.
And the little prince had a faint attitude, like a king looking down on ordinary subjects.
But they are not ordinary people, they are all strong in martial arts, and even the one who dominates their territory.
And when facing the little prince, their posture is so low, as people in the rivers and lakes, even in the face of officials, they will not be so willing to bow down to the ministers.
"Isn't this the girl from that day?"
Suddenly, a person squeezed in between Mu Ningxuan and the little prince, and the little prince had to let go of the hand that was holding Mu Ningxuan's wrist.
"What are you doing here?" The little prince said coldly to the visitor.
The man smiled and said: "On the Qixi Festival, the little prince actually took a beautiful lady to go to the market, such an anecdote, I can't come and take a look." ”
Mu Ningxuan didn't speak, but she was very grateful to this man for squeezing between her and the little prince and helping her pull the little prince's hand away.
However, this man is different from others, he does not bow down to the little prince in a low profile, and his attitude towards the little prince is like a friend for many years.
The man saw that the little prince ignored him, so he turned to Mu Ningxuan and said, "Which girl are you?" ”
Mu Ningxuan was hesitating to answer, when she heard the little prince cough twice, and said to the man with a dark face: "It's nothing, you just go back to your Songhe restaurant, what are you doing here!" ”
The man is actually Boss Zhang of Songhe Restaurant, who is also the rumored Nangong Jishao, who is the first in the world in martial arts! Look at the face is not the same person at all!
The little prince saw Mu Ningxuan's doubts and explained: "He is Boss Zhang of Songhe Restaurant, he has changed his appearance." ”
"I see, Boss Zhang's disguise technique is really amazing, and it can be confused with the real." Mu Ningxuan said approvingly.
Nangong Jie was smug: "Of course!" Still, do you see that I'm not excited? ”
"What's excited, she doesn't remember what you look like!" The little prince said coldly.
Nangong Jishao looked at Mu Ningxuan and smiled: "Haha, really? You're different from ordinary women, I like it! ”
"Are you going to go back?" When the little prince heard Nangong Jishao's straightforward words, his face couldn't be darker anymore.
Nangong Jishao laughed and said: "Okay, okay, I'll go back, but this girl is interesting, if you don't like people, remember to let it be given to me!" ”
The little prince was about to make a move, and Nangong Jishao disappeared in an instant.
Mu Ningxuan and the little prince continued to walk forward, and after walking for a while, they saw many people surrounding not far in front of them, and the sound of fighting faintly came from the crowd.
Mu Ningxuan and Little Wang Ye immediately walked briskly towards the crowd.
But I saw that the two people from the rivers and lakes who had just greeted the little prince were fighting with a man and a woman at this moment.
The woman is petite and exquisite, with a man's hairstyle, cherry lips and phoenix eyes, eyebrows like green feathers, dressed in pink and green clothes, looking sixteen, seventeen or eight.
The man was dressed in a blue coat, about twenty years old, and his figure was tall and tall.
The four of them are all holding swords, and the two Jianghu people are at a disadvantage at the moment.
Just when the woman on the other side was not paying attention, one of the Jianghu people secretly threw a dart over, seeing that the dart was about to hurt the woman.
