Mu Ningxuan sighed lightly and got on the horse.

"This game color head: white jade glass fan!"

With the referee's order, the drums sounded, and all kinds of battle flags fluttered in the wind.

Mu Ningxuan raised the whip, the horse galloped, dribbled in the air, and hit like the wind, so chic and free.

It is in response to Han Yu's sentence "Turn your arm sideways and hold the horse's belly, and the thunderbolt should be galloping".

After a hearty ride, Mu Ningxuan and Xiao Wang Ye easily won this game.

In the cheers, the referee handed the color head of this game to the little prince.

The little prince took the fan, turned around and whispered in Mu Ningxuan's ear: "This fan, this king will keep it well." ”

Mu Ningxuan's face was red and unconscious, and she turned around and left.

"Lord Ning Xuan, my master is waiting for you in the grove in front." A little guy walked up to Mu Ningxuan and said.

Although it was not in their hands that Mother Feng did not have an accident, they still used this trick in this life.

"Who is the master of your house?" Mu Ningxuan still asked.

The little servant bowed his head and said, "It's someone you know, and the county lord will know when he goes." ”

Aunt Su whispered to Mu Ningxuan on the side: "County Lord, the origin of this person is unknown. ”

Mu Ningxuan waved her hand, signaling that Aunt Su didn't need to be nervous.

"You go back and tell your master, if you want to see me, come to the Pingchang Marquis Mansion to deliver the post generously, what are you doing so sneakily."

After saying that, he stopped paying attention to the little guy.

The little guy looked stunned, he didn't take Mu Ningxuan to the grove, he couldn't make a difference, he knew Guo Zhenghuai's methods.

If he can't finish the errand, even if he doesn't die, half of his leg will be broken, but unfortunately he has an old mother and a wife and children at home, and he can't have an accident.

"The county lord begs you to go over, the little one has an old mother and a wife and children..."The little girl knelt down in front of Mu Ningxuan.

Although Mu Ningxuan has good intentions, not everyone has to be saved, and she is not a savior, especially Guo Zhenghuai's subordinates.

Seeing that Mu Ningxuan didn't pay attention to her at all, the little maid directly took out the saber on his waist.

Aunt Su and Yutang were so frightened that they hurriedly pulled Mu Ningxuan away.

But the little guy just pointed his saber at his neck.

"Ask the county lord to be kind, go for a while, the little one will take his life to ensure that the county lord will never have an accident."

Mu Ningxuan knew that the little guy was telling the truth, and Guo Zhenghuai just wanted to play a heroic scene to save the beauty for her.

Guo Zhenghuai would not have thought that she would have known his drama for a long time, so naturally she would not be excited.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if she doesn't know, just relying on heroes to save beauty, she can't fall in love with him Guo Zhenghuai.

Seeing that the little guy was like this, Mu Ningxuan relented and followed.

Mu Ningxuan followed the little girl to a small grove next to the polo field.

The grove is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the trees are tall and dense, and only a few rays of sunlight find the gaps in the leaves and sneak in.

The little guy stopped and said to Mu Ningxuan: "County Lord, you wait here for a while. In order to express his gratitude to Mu Ningxuan, the little girl whispered to Mu Ningxuan: "Wait a minute, no matter what happens, don't be afraid." After saying that, the little guy left.

Mu Ningxuan knew that the little girl wanted to hint to her that the two black-clothed people who suddenly appeared would not really hurt them~

Mu Ningxuan and the three of them waited for a while, but the so-called owner in the mouth of the little guy still did not show up.

Yutang whispered: "County Lord, no one has come after waiting for so long, why don't we go back." ”

As soon as the words fell, two men in black with black cloths covering their faces suddenly rushed out of the grove, and the two of them rushed towards Mu Ningxuan with scimitars in their hands.

Aunt Su stepped forward directly to block in front of Mu Ningxuan, and Yutang stood in place in fright.

At this moment, Guo Zhenghuai fell from the sky, suddenly appeared, divided by two, and beat the two men in black away.

Mu Ningxuan laughed secretly in her heart, when she was a fool? Such clumsy acting!

Guo Zhenghuai waited for Mu Ningxuan's thanks, but Mu Ningxuan didn't speak for a long time, Guo Zhenghuai thought that Mu Ningxuan was frightened, so he could only speak first: "Sister Ning Xuan, are you okay?" Isn't it scary? A few little thieves, don't be afraid. ”

Mu Ningxuan nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Guo Zhenghuai couldn't believe that Mu Ningxuan was so calm that he didn't even thank him.

Seeing that Mu Ningxuan was about to leave, Guo Zhenghuai hurriedly grabbed Mu Ningxuan's arm, and was just about to speak, when his hand was hit hard by something, Guo Zhenghuai was agitated and let go of his hand in pain.

"Talk, talk, what do you do with your clothes?" The voice is particularly strong.

Mu Ningxuan and Guo Zhenghuai looked at them when they heard the sound, and saw that the little prince was walking towards them.

Guo Zhenghuai was taken aback, he didn't expect the little prince to appear here.

"If you are seen by someone who cares, the reputation of the county lord will be gone. Do you want to ruin the reputation of the county lord? Do you think Muhou will let you go? Will the officials let you go? The little prince said righteously as he walked.

Guo Zhenghuai was a little embarrassed and said: "Little prince, I didn't mean it. ”

"It's good if you didn't mean to, go down." The little prince said indifferently, and he didn't mean to pursue it.

Guo Zhenghuai arched his hand at the little prince and left in a huff.

After Guo Zhenghuai walked away, the little prince turned to look at Mu Ningxuan and said with a smile: "Is this king coming in time?" ”

"Thank you, little prince." Mu Ningxuan smiled slightly.

The little prince explained: "It was the princess who just couldn't find you on the polo field, and was worried about your safety, so King Toben came to look for you." ”

The princess in the mouth of the little prince is naturally Princess Gaorou.

Mu Ningxuan said in a faint voice: "Oh, then I'll go back first." ”

"Disappointed?" The little prince teased.

"Nope." Mu Ningxuan's voice was calm.

The little prince laughed and said, "Lie to you." It wasn't the princess who came looking for you, it was the king who saw you walking in the direction of the grove with a little servant, and felt suspicious, so he came to take a look. ”

"Oh." Mu Ningxuan didn't show any particular surprise.

The little prince was slightly disappointed by Mu Ningxuan's expression, and shouted into the woods. "Bring it on!"

The three guards pressed the little guy and the two men in black over just now.

"Say, Who commanded you to do this?" The little prince asked at the three people.

Neither the servant nor the two men in black spoke.

The personal guards beside the little prince stuffed the three pills into the mouths of the three people in turn, and the three of them immediately bared their teeth and groaned in pain.

"Don't worry, you won't die, what you are given is a pill that will cause severe pain all over your body, as long as you explain honestly, you will have an antidote to eat immediately."

The little girl couldn't stand the pain, and was the first to beg for mercy: "It was Guo Xiaoniang who asked us to do this, give me the antidote, I'm dying of pain." ”

"Guo Xiaoniang?" The little prince turned his head to look at Mu Ningxuan.

Mu Ningxuan said calmly: "It's my father's concubine." ”

Seeing Mu Ningxuan's expression, he was not surprised, the little prince knew it, waved his hand, and the guards took the three people away.

"So, do you know who is behind today's events?"

Mu Ningxuan nodded: "Guo Xiaoniang can't tolerate me, she wants me to leave the Pingchang Marquis Mansion as soon as possible, and together with Guo Zhenghuai, the second son of the Zhengxun Earl's Mansion, she directed and acted in such a play." ”

"Now that you know, I won't say more. Need my help? The little prince looked at Mu Ningxuan's eyes and asked.

Mu Ningxuan shook her head: "No need." ”

The little prince said again: "Do you want to solve it yourself? Got a solution? ”

"I'm thinking about it."

The little prince pointed to the young man beside him, "Donglin is a reliable one, you can use it with confidence." The Guo Xiaoniang in your mouth is a ruthless person, there is no one around you who knows martial arts, so let Donglin follow you, I can rest assured. ”

Mu Ningxuan just wanted to shake his head, but Donglin knelt down and said, "Little Donglin, listen to the county lord's orders." ”

"You gave me your personal guard, what are you going to do?" Mu Ningxuan asked.

The little prince smiled: "I can protect myself." ”

As he spoke, he threw out the stone in his hand that he didn't know where it came from, and the trunk of the tree not far away broke in an instant.

Mu Ningxuan still praised: "The little prince is good at kung fu." ”

"Hahaha, that's too perfunctory." The little prince suddenly looked at Mu Ningxuan seriously and said, "Ning Xuan, don't call me the little prince." ”

The little prince's eyes were full of banter.

Mu Ningxuan was not interested in knowing what the little prince's name was, and said lightly: "The third sister is still waiting for me, I'll go back first." ”

After speaking, Mu Ningxuan left a back for the little prince.

The little prince frowned slightly, and looked at Mu Ningxuan's back and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Then he shook his head and said to himself, "Headache." ”

"Master, what about those three people?"

"Let it go." The little prince replied casually.

"Did you just let them go like that?" Donglin was puzzled.

The little prince said lightly: "It's just a useless chess piece." ”

Dong Lin continued to ask: "Master, what Princess Gao Rou said, what is Master going to do?" ”

"This Ning Xuan County Lord is a wonderful person, he can act according to the princess's plan first. You should report to the county lord tomorrow. The little prince looked meaningfully in the direction of Mu Ningxuan's return.

"That Guo Xiaoniang, do you want to do it?"

"It's just a concubine's room, let her solve it by herself first."

"Yes."

Back at the polo field, Mu Ningxuan saw that the third sister had returned to the shed where Princess Gao Rou was sitting in the shed, and there was a fist-sized night pearl on the table.

***

The official family has recently contracted a cough disease, and he has been treated for more than a month, but there is no improvement.

The position of the crown prince has been vacant for a long time, and the ministers have raised the matter of establishing the prince in front of the official family, and implore the official family to establish the prince as soon as possible to consolidate the country.

Originally, the official family intended to make the three princes the king, but during this time, the three princes and the king of Jin frequently contacted the ministers for the position of the crown prince, and they were banquets and concubines, plus the queen blew a lot of pillow wind, and now the official family is a little hesitant.

But the fifth prince, King Shu, looked very timid and cowardly, and the officials really didn't look down on him.

No one mentioned the six princes, and the official family itself did not include the six princes in the scope of the crown prince's candidates, even if there was that secret letter, it was the last choice in desperation.

The matter of establishing a prince dragged on like this.

Recently, there has been a bandit rebellion in Zizhou, and the two princes are concerned about the position of the crown prince, and they have no intention of leading troops to quell the bandits.

***

Pyeongchang Marquis Mansion.

Mu Ningxuan was called to the study by Mu Houye.

As soon as she entered the study, Mu Ningxuan saw the six princes.

Mu Ningxuan made a blessing salute to the six princes, and said, "Sixth brother An." ”

The sixth prince looked at Mu Ningxuan with a smile: "Sister Xuan, your eldest brother and I are going to Zizhou to quell the bandits, and today I came here to find Mu Houye." ”

"My eldest brother is also going to Zizhou to quell the bandits?" Mu Ningxuan asked.

The Sixth Prince nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Big brother's marriage is approaching, why do you still want to go?" Mu Ningxuan looked at Mu Houye.

The sixth prince patiently explained: "Brother Yuchen doesn't have to go to the border this year, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Zizhou with me to quell the bandits. ”

"The eldest brother is really loyal to the country, since the sixth brother and his father have important matters to discuss, I will come back later." Mu Ningxuan turned around to leave.

"Xuan'er, wait a minute." Mu Hou Ye stopped Mu Ningxuan and handed over the box in his hand, "This is handed over to you by the sixth prince for his father." ”

Mu Ningxuan looked at the six princes and wondered, "What's in the box?" ”

The sixth prince replied: "It's a jade pendant, please ask Sister Xuan to help keep it, if I can come back safely, I will come to Sister Xuan to ask for it." ”

Mu Ningxuan knew that her destination must be the sixth prince, so she did not reject it, silently accepted the jade pendant box, smiled faintly, and withdrew.

In this life, Mu Ningxuan didn't need to investigate the cause of her mother's death, so she studied the incense book in the cellar every day.

Speaking of which, Guo Xiaoniang's madness has slowly begun to improve~

***

On this day, Mrs. Shen posted a post asking Mu Ningxuan to go over to meet her sisters and brothers.

The third sister and the Wu family Saburo have decided to do so, and this time they went to Lin'an Hou Mansion Mu Ningxuan did not take the third sister with them.

Mrs. Shen's family has three sons and four daughters, of which only the eldest sister, second brother and fifth brother are born from the concubines, and the others are all born in the concubine's room, and they are all raised by Mrs. Shen's side.

This is the third time Mu Ningxuan has entered the Lin'an Hou Mansion, and the first two times are because she has something on her mind and has no time to take care of anything else.

Entering the mansion today, Mu Ningxuan suddenly found that the scenery of the Lin'an Hou Mansion was very pleasant, the huge courtyard was paved with a cross bluestone road, the trees around the house wall were towering, the vines were covered, the mountains and peaks in the garden were stacked, the river was clear, and the fish were swimming happily.

It is said that the Lin'an Hou Mansion was originally the mansion that the former emperor specially repaired for the general of Zhenguo, and later the general invited himself to garrison the frontier, and the general's mansion was vacant and was taken back by the emperor. Later, the emperor gave the General's Mansion to the Zhang family, which led to the current Lin'an Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Shen placed the table in the flower hall, and Mu Ningxuan was led to the flower hall by Hua's mother.

Seeing Mu Ningxuan coming, Mrs. Shen stepped forward and took Mu Ningxuan's hand, pointed to the woman beside her, and said with a smile: "Xuan'er, come, get to know me, this is your sister Huilan." ”

Sister Huilan looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a rose red floral dress, with a gold wire inlaid ruby on her head, swaying with a dignified and noble style.

Mu Ningxuan gave a blessing to Sister Huilan, and said, "Sister Huilan is good." ”

Hui Lan smiled back and said, "Sister Xuan is good." ”

Mrs. Shen continued: "This is your second brother Rong'an. ”

"Second brother Rong'an is good." Mu Ningxuan still gave a blessing to the second brother Rong An, who was wearing a blue brocade robe.

Second brother Rong'an arched his hand and said, "Sister Xuan is good." ”

"This is your second sister-in-law." Mrs. Shen continued.

"Second sister-in-law, hello." Mu Ningxuan looked at the woman beside Rong'an's second brother, the second sister-in-law was well-dressed, and she was also extravagant.

"Sister Xuan is good." The second sister-in-law replied according to the number of courtesies.

"Where's Rongjing?" Mrs. Shen suddenly frowned.
