Chapter 59: Fighting for the Tiger
Mingyue gave Qin Huai's calf a plaster to reduce swelling, and helped her sit on the couch to rest, while Mu Guanqing sat on the side and drank tea quietly.
"Lady Official, did you come this time because Your Majesty was relieved and decided to let the princess go back?"
Mingyue held back for a long time, but still couldn't hold back, and cautiously asked Mu Guanqing about Xunyang's movements.
"Xunyang City is tight, Shuntianfu has arrested a lot of rumors and troublemakers in the past half month, although Wuxiang Pavilion has withdrawn from Xunyang, but what happens after that depends on what those old ministers in the court say."
Mu Guanqing's answer was pertinent, and he didn't mean to add oil and vinegar to make Qin Huai feel better.
Seeing that his father didn't want to recruit her back, Qin Huai's head drooped again, and he didn't know how long he would have to hold up in Yunzhou. If there is no Mu Guanqing to help this time, I am afraid that she will really be more than lucky. According to Yan Cheng's temperament, if she is still okay at this time, she will definitely go crazy.
"It turns out that my father misses me......"
Qin Huai fell straight on the couch, his eyes hollow.
Mu Guanqing saw her dejected appearance, so she put the teacup back on the table, and uncharacteristically cocked Erlang's legs and continued.
"Your Majesty told the ministers that I should start preparing for the construction of the river, but the discerning people know that the terrain of Yunzhou is low and not suitable for building the river. Do you think Your Majesty will really let me put down the affairs of the DPRK and China and come to Yunzhou for a trip? ”
After saying this, Qin Huai suddenly became alert again, and hurriedly sat down and waited for the following.
According to this, the father specially asked the female officials to see if she was doing well, and the father really didn't forget her.
"Princess, I said that Your Majesty will not forget you, even the female official was sent to see you, I must feel sorry for you."
Mingyue hurriedly picked up the words, for fear that Qin Huai would think blindly.
Seeing that Qin Huai began to be happy again, Mu Guanqing pursed her lips and let her come back to her senses from her dream.
"I'm not just here to see you, but also because I also have unspeakable secrets, and I want to find a place to be clean and clean."
Qin Huai remembered that the last time Mu Guanqing said that she wanted to be pure, it was the battle of the three imperial brothers, and the forces of the three parties wanted to win her over, and in order not to get into trouble, she asked Ying to go to the vicinity of the imperial tomb to have a look.
Now that the four seas are peaceful and the position of the prince has been decided, Qin Huai really can't think of anything that can stump Mu Guanqing.
Looking at the curious eyes of the people on the couch, Mu Guanqing sighed and secretly hurt herself.
Mingyue knew that it was inconvenient for her to be present at this time, so she retreated to cover the door and waited outside.
"Those old ministers in the court said that I was not too young, and they all persuaded me to marry as soon as possible in the court. I didn't know their ghost idea, and they wanted me to marry their son, brother, cousin, and nephew. If I really deign to marry one of them, then their family will be able to control the situation in the court. ”
"There was also that old thing surnamed You before, he was old, and he told me at the gate of the palace that he was going to continue the string, and I should have shaken out the last time he secretly released the Qin criminal."
Indeed, Mu Guanqing is also twenty-one this year, most of the noble girls at this age are married and have a son and a half daughter, before she worked hard for Tianyu, and a law was changed for more than a year. Now that everything is settled, naturally some people are starting to worry about her family affairs.
Besides, these people in the court, if any family is lucky enough to marry Mu Guanqing, isn't this a glorious lintel, a great joy for the ancestors to appear, and it will naturally attract everyone to scramble.
"Could it be that my father thinks the same way?"
After so many years, Mu Guanqing has already become the right-hand man of her father, if she really marries a wife early, her father will inevitably be one less general, which will also be Tianyu's worst loss.
When she asked about this, Mu Guanqing felt a headache, thinking about the pictures of the sons and brothers who were piled up in the study, as well as the children of the clan who came to visit her every day, now even if she only walks one street when she goes out, she can meet seventeen or eighteen noble ladies to say goodbye to her son.
"Your Majesty is naturally not good at interfering in the family affairs of the courtiers, so he leaves this matter to the queen to take care of. After going down to court every day, I not only have to deal with those officials, but also follow the queen mother and those noble sons to meet one by one. Of course, the queen mother also did not put the men of the Luo family in the background. ”
After the death of the crown prince, the queen began to openly and secretly place the Luo family in various camps in the court, and of course she would not let go of the towering tree of female officials.
Such a good opportunity, if the queen does not grasp it well, her intestines will regret it in the future.
"Is that what got into your eyes?"
After knowing Mu Guanqing for many years, Qin Huai has never heard of which man she has been tempted by, and since she has this opportunity, she has also joined in the fun.
"If my marriage really involves the interests of the court, the person I want to marry must be the dragon and phoenix among the people, and if the talent is world-famous, otherwise how can I match it?"
She paused, suddenly reacted, and sighed: "Besides, even if I don't marry in my life, so what." ”
Qin Huai didn't think this was a bad thing, and agreed: "I'm afraid even I will have to thank you at that time." ”
Mu Guanqing raised her eyes and glared at her, as if asking her what she meant by this.
"At that time, you became an old girl in Xunyang City, and the people only cared about you, who still wanted to talk about me. When the time comes, I will sit back and relax and continue to be my little overlord in Xunyang. ”
This was a joke, but Mu Guanqing didn't take it seriously, and blocked it back according to her reasoning.
"It is said that I have a deep friendship with each other, and I am a rare good sister in Xunyang, so how can you be alone between good sisters?"
If she wanted to, she would have 10,000 ways to make Qin Huai unable to return to Beijing, and Qin Huai would be afraid that she would only beg for mercy.
"That'...... Wait until I come back to Xunyang to find you a good family? ”
Mu Guanqing raised her eyebrows, and had bad intentions: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I don't think there is a good enough candidate around you." ”
Qin Huai frowned, thinking left and right, could it be ...... The person Mu Guanqing said was......
"Monk Gu Bai is famous, his martial arts are world-famous, his temperament is calm and stable, he is not one of those who chase fame and fortune, and his family background is innocent, without a father or mother, and he doesn't take care of it, it's not bad."
Qin Huai didn't dare to confirm it, so Mu Guanqing pushed the words out by himself.
Sure enough, there are more wolves and less meat, how could Gu Baixiu also fancy herself first, in order to make today's progress with Gu Baixiu, it is too difficult for her, and even the first female official has to fight with herself at this time?
And Mu Guanqing is not an ordinary person, if these two immortal-like people really look at each other, and are ready to envy the mandarin ducks and not the immortals, then what can Qin Huai do himself.
This Gu Baixiu is too ostentatious, and he must not be allowed to appear in front of Mu Wanqing in the future!
Seeing Qin Huai's eyes rolling and his face reluctant, I am afraid that he is calculating something in his heart. Mu Guanqing shook her head and chuckled, and immediately relieved her confusion.
"Don't worry, a gentleman doesn't take people's favor, if you really want to be with him, you should solve the trouble in Xunyang City earlier."
Qin Huai didn't know who the trouble was in Mu Guanqing's mouth.
The horse Li cut the immortal.
That perfidious dregs swept up a lot of her property, and it was because of himself that he was spit on for so many days...... If she is allowed to go back, she will be the first to take Li Qixian to open the knife!
"I don't know where Li Qixian was sent after I came to Yunzhou?"
Thinking that he is not in Yunzhou, this kid must be happy and happy, and it is estimated that he can't remember Qin Huai at all. It's okay, just let him live a few more days.
"His lips are cold, he framed you like that in order to get out, he should have expected today. I found a reason to send him to Shuntianfu to handle the case, if it weren't for his father's sake, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to enter the court as an official in this life. ”
Mu Guanqing's words seemed to be unintentional, but in fact, Qin Huai understood that she was angry with herself again.
To do this position, the slightest mistake is a fatal disaster. On weekdays, female officials are the most fair, never do fake public and private things, and she doesn't care about the rewards and punishments of the officials of the household department, where will she arrange a person to change positions at will.
"Hey......"
Qin Huai sighed heavily, lamenting that he had such a bad fate that he couldn't even go back to the palace.
Mu Guanqing didn't know her thoughts, but now is really not a good time.
"When I entered the palace as an official, I heard no less gossip than you do now, but you see how they can't shake my status now. I'll help you settle things this time, but then you'll have to do it yourself, even the power won't protect you for the rest of your life. ”
These two sentences do not match the preamble, Qin Huai didn't know what Mu Guanqing meant for a while, did she let herself fight, or let herself not fight?
"It won't be long before the third prince and Miss Xuan will get married, and at that time, His Majesty should also announce the candidate for the crown prince, and I plan to nominate you at that time to prepare for the marriage of the third prince with me."
Mu Guanqing put away her smiling face and didn't look like she was joking, but this kind of big thing, would the Ministry of Rites really rest assured that she would do it?
"It was a good day for the whole world to celebrate, and the three princes and the three princesses would not refuse, and there was such a reason, those old ministers should not think of any good reason to refuse."
"That's a good idea."
Qin Huai believed that Mu Guanqing's decision, with her arranging it in the court, this matter would be foolproof.
"Princess, Master Yan and the eldest lady are back."
Mingyue knocked lightly on the door, reminding the two that it was not too early, and there were still some small things that had not yet been resolved.
Mu Guanqing got up and asked Qin Huai Mo to send him off, and instructed: "I will arrange the affairs of the Dong family freely, you continue to live with peace of mind, and I will notify you if there is any situation in Xunyang." Be careful not to cause trouble, and don't leave a handle on your side. ”
Walking out of the courtyard with Qingchi, Mu Guanqing tidied up her appearance a little, and returned to her indifferent expression.
"My lord, why didn't you tell the princess about that?"
Qing Chi asked in a low voice on the side, not understanding why the master wanted to hide it from the princess.
Mu Guanqing silenced her and asked, "Do you think that whether you say it or not will affect her choice?" ”
"You immediately fly the pigeon and pass the book back, and transfer all the files and cases of the Dong family, and I also want to know Dong Concubine's every move. This Dong County Duke was a tiger at the beginning, did His Majesty really forget about him? ”
