Mu Jingshu wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded, and continued, "Can Mother Feng help me inquire about Mother Liu's hometown?" ”

"Okay, the old slave will go out of the palace tomorrow with the token."

"Well, don't make a public announcement about this matter, especially don't let the people of Mufu notice."

"Is the county lord suspicious..."Mother Feng heard Mu Ningxuan say not to let the people of the Hou Mansion notice, and instantly understood a thing or two, in fact, Mother Feng also had doubts, when the eldest lady was a girl, she was in good health and did not have any hidden diseases, why did she go because of overwork.

Mu Ningxuan interrupted Feng's mother's words: "Mother Feng will check first, after all, Mother Liu served my mother, if she is doing well in her hometown, if she is not happy, bring her to the capital, Mother Liu has no children and no daughters, she has dedicated her life to my mother, and I should take care of her instead of my mother." ”

"Don't worry, the old slave knows what's at stake." Mother Feng stood up and withdrew.

Mu Ningxuan's mother, the eldest lady of the Pingchang Houfu, Yang, died in the third year after she entered the palace, according to the report from the people of the Mu Mansion who entered the palace, saying that the mother was overworked and died in a dream of heart failure, although she left suddenly, but finally did not suffer anything.

However, not long after the mother left, all the subordinates who had been used by the mother's side were sent away, either with people or for sale, and even the mother's personal maid, Mother Liu, was nowhere to be found.

In the previous life, after Mu Ningxuan returned to Mufu, she also wanted to ask Liu's mother about the situation, and wanted to know if her mother had left anything for her before her death. But Guo Xiaoniang handed over Liu's mother's letter to Mu Ningxuan, and the letter stated that the eldest lady passed away suddenly, leaving no words or objects, and now she is also old, since the eldest lady has gone, she doesn't want to stay in the capital, she wants to go back to her hometown to join her nephew, and spend her old age well.

At that time, she believed in Guo Xiaoniang too much, and did not doubt the authenticity of the letter. Besides, my mother has passed away for several years, so it's really not easy to investigate.

Xu has been in the palace for a long time and has seen too many intrigues, so Mu Ningxuan has some expectations for the personnel who will return to the Mu family.

Later, when she returned to Mufu, Guo Xiaoniang and everyone in the house were very good to her, better than she expected, Guo Xiaoniang attributed their goodness to her Mu Ningxuan is the county lord of the official family and the daughter of the Hou Mansion, so she naturally had to hold it respectfully, which caused her to become more and more arrogant and act arbitrarily.

***

In late summer and early autumn, the weather is always hot and cold, and it was still hot a few days ago, only two days of rain in a row, and the temperature dropped a lot.

In addition to routinely going to the Empress Dowager's palace early every morning to ask for peace, Mu Ningxuan spent the rest of her time covered with a thin quilt and curled up in the quilt to read a book or do needlework to pass the time.

"County Lord, this is not yet the cold winter moon." Jeff came in with a basin of hot water.

Mu Ningxuan didn't want to get up, and said lazily: "Didn't you get up early to ask the Queen Mother to say goodbye, what are you doing with hot water this time?" ”

"County Lord, you can get up, the sixth prince has just entered the palace to go to the Queen Mother's palace to say goodbye, the Queen Mother has sent a message to you to prepare, and you will have lunch later. By the way, Xiao Yuko, who was next to the sixth prince, sent a lot of fresh fruits. “

The six princes, Mu Ningxuan silently passed in her mind for a while, she remembered that after the third prince succeeded to the throne, the six princes were named King Heng and stationed on the frontier. Compared with the crown prince and the fifth prince, the ending of the sixth prince is very good.
