Chapter 759: The Red Flower in the Soup
"Hui'er, thank you, auntie."
Since she wants to be a good person, Murong Hui naturally accepts it politely, but she still doesn't like her.
Soft smiled but didn't look at her, but continued to stare at Lin Yingxue, talking about many customs related to pregnant women in her home country.
Lin Yingxue listened calmly, and didn't seem to care what she said, until Mama entered the door with a group of noble girls, and she waved her hand at Rou Rou.
"Hui'er, your brother-in-law let you choose by yourself, you must pick two."
Even if Murong Hui chooses by herself, the scope of screening companions is still controlled by Lin Yingxue.
Murong Hui swept around slightly, and saw Tang Moxue staring at her carefully.
She couldn't help but be a little surprised, she thought that the Tang family would not send someone over, but now looking at the interests of the family, it is higher than sisterhood.
What's more, Murong Jun chose the son of the Tang family as a companion for Murong An, obviously to promote the Tang family, and after weighing it again, she chose Tang Moxue and Shen Jing, the eldest daughter of Anyang Bo.
Shen Jing and Murong Kai's biological mother were also from Anyang Bofu, and because of Murong Kai's current identity, Anyang Bofu is very close to him.
Sang Ning also mentioned Shen Jing to her more than once, so Murong Hui chose her.
Lin Yingxue was quite satisfied, and when she saw that she had finished choosing, she asked the two of them to go to Ningcui Palace to pack up their things, and accompany Murong Hui to the study tomorrow to study.
Murong Hui saw that the hour was almost up, so she sat for a while and left.
"In the past, I didn't see Princess Rouhe care about these things, but now she seems to be very concerned about things related to pregnant women."
It wasn't until she walked out of Fengyi Palace that Qing Yue said in a low voice.
"Probably because my aunt is pregnant, she wants to know more about it, so as to please my aunt and my husband."
Murong Hui was absent-minded, she had too many things to face now, so naturally she didn't have the heart to think about them anymore.
Qingyue nodded, but she didn't think much about it, and instead told Murong Hui about the recent interesting things that happened in the palace.
Early the next morning, Murong Hui had just had breakfast, and saw Tang Moxue and Shen Jing coming together, waiting for Murong Hui to go to the study together.
"Doesn't Your Highness want to ask?"
As soon as Tang Moxue saluted and got up, she asked with a stiff face.
"Ask what?"
Murong Hui took a sip of tea and wondered.
"Ask the courtiers if they are satisfied with Miss Shen, will they think of some tricks to get her away in private?"
Tang Moxue clenched her fists, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a sneer.
Shen Jing didn't say anything, she knew why Tan Yanran, who had always been famous, was kicked out of the palace.
"Don't ask, I don't think you're that stupid. Unless I don't want to stay, the queen will ask for my opinion before deciding to stay with the companion, I hope you understand this truth. ”
Knowing the reason why Tang Moxue asked this question, Murong Hui simply said straightforwardly.
Tang Moxue pursed her lips and didn't say a word, thinking in her heart that it was indeed something else.
She knew that Her Royal Highness the princess had an idea, and she didn't like the people around her to make their own decisions.
"The courtiers understand."
After a moment of silence, Tang Moxue saluted respectfully.
"I've heard a lot of your cousin's good name, but now I think you're better than her."
Seeing her interest, Murong Hui also breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly felt in her heart that it was really not easy to please the emperor and queen.
Tang Moxue smiled a little embarrassedly, knowing that this time her cousin was shooting herself in the foot.
The three of them walked out of the east side hall and walked towards the upper study, and along the way, Murong Hui told them about the course layout of the upper study and the teaching style of each master.
The content of the elective courses in the afternoon is explained in every detail.
She felt in her heart that since she accepted these two, she had to continue to get along, and her tone was cold, so it was better to try to accept it.
Tang Moxue listened silently, in fact, her mother had already said that she had inquired about these contents before entering the palace.
It's just that Murong Hui said it in more detail, but she didn't hide it at all, which made her feel more and more sorry for her cousin Tan Yanran.
There are few princesses who are so easy to serve from the previous dynasty to the present, why does she have to read it with a companion, and now she has such an embarrassing result.
"Why did Your Highness choose me?"
Seeing that she was about to go to the study, Tang Moxue couldn't help but ask the doubts that had been lingering in her heart for a long time, she thought that Murong Hui hated Tan Yanran very much and would anger her because of this.
"Because your brother is An'er's companion, it is clear that His Majesty wants to be optimistic about your family, so I chose you."
Murong Hui didn't hide it, and after speaking, he got off the sedan chair and walked straight towards the upper study.
Tang Moxue breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Shen Jing into the upper study, she could see that this highness did not embarrass her at all.
In the past three days, Murong Hui received the news that Gao Ziyue and Chu Huaining were married, and she happily took her two companions to Gao Ziyue's house to eat and drink.
Gao Ziyue's complexion was much better than when she left the palace, and she wore this pink placket embroidered white butterfly brocade skirt, which looked extremely bright and moving.
"Your Highness, thank you for your help, otherwise my father would not have agreed."
Gao Ziyue didn't pay attention to Shen Jing and Tang Moxue at all, and pulled Murong Hui to walk forward by herself.
Shen Jing followed calmly, Tang Moxue frowned slightly, but when she thought of Gao Ziyue and Tan Yanran's festival, she didn't say anything.
"Your Highness, thank you for coming."
As soon as I entered the main hall, I saw Gao Ziyue's mother walking out, she was wearing a rust-red skirt, and her figure was unusually thin.
Thinking about coming these days, I am very worried about Gao Ziyue's affairs.
Now that Chu Huaining has solved her urgent need, she naturally wants to thank Murong Hui as a matchmaker.
"Mrs. Gao is polite, this matter was brought up by Chu Huaining on his own initiative, and it is not the result of my matchmaking, I can only say that they are very fateful."
Murong Hui smiled, took the tea brought by Mrs. Gao, and said softly.
Mrs. Gao sat on the side and said politely: "I'm not afraid of His Royal Highness's jokes, my lord wants to send Yue'er back to his hometown to marry in a hurry, and I'm almost convinced." ”
"Mother, don't talk about this, Your Highness is difficult to get out of the palace, you hurry up and prepare wine and food, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to eat with His Highness in the future."
Gao Ziyue felt a little regretful in her heart that she could no longer accompany Murong Hui.
Seeing this, Mrs. Gao hurriedly got up and went to the back kitchen to urge, leaving only Gao Ziyue to accompany them.
"Let me introduce you to you, these two are Tang Moxue and Shen Jing, my new companions."
Murong Hui patted Gao Ziyue's shoulder and said softly.
"I recognize the two of them, both of them are young ladies of the Xungui family."
Gao Ziyue's expression was cold, and she glanced at it and was silent.
"Hello Miss Gao, my cousin-in-law can't come over this time, so let me bring the gift with me."
After Shen Jing finished speaking, she asked the maid to hand the gift to Gao Ziyue, Gao Ziyue was stunned at first, and then saw that Sang Ning's name was written on the gift list, and then she reacted to why Murong Hui chose Shen Jing as a companion.
"Thank you, Princess Hua Qing, for me."
Gao Ziyue smiled, took the gifts, and a maid asked them to come over for dinner.
The four of them hurriedly went to the small flower hall, and when they saw that the dishes were all on the table, they came up.
After the maid poured fruit wine for the four of them, she quietly stepped aside, waiting for orders, and looked very ordered.
Tang Moxue was a guest at a house like Huangshang for the first time, and for the first time she saw the rules of such a family, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, but she didn't feel that Gao Ziyue was as uneducated as her cousin said.
A few girls of the same age naturally have many topics to talk about, and it didn't take long for them to get along quite well.
After eating, several people listened to the play together, and seeing that it was not early, Murong Huicai said goodbye to Gao Ziyue and returned to the palace with two companions.
"I'll give the lucky bag to my aunt early tomorrow morning."
After returning to the east side hall, Murong Hui continued to embroider the blessing bag, and it took half an hour, and the embroidered eyes were a little flowery, and finally embroidered the blessing bag.
Mama Huang took the lucky bag and looked at it carefully, the stitches of this lucky bag are finely embroidered, although the workmanship is not as good as the embroidery in the palace, it is not bad.
"Your Highness's craftsmanship is really good, slaves and maids can't embroider so well at your age."
Qing Xue admired on her face, there was naturally an element of sycophancy, but Murong Hui was very happy to hear it.
After eating some snacks and seeing that the hour was about the same, Murong Hui went to sleep, completely unaware of the impending danger.
The next morning, the imperial dining room sent an extra soup to the East Side Palace, Murong Hui took a look, and found that this soup was extremely nourishing, so he smiled and said: "This soup should be sent to my aunt, it is more suitable for her to drink." ”
Mama Huang also nodded in agreement, the cordyceps soup for Murong Hui is indeed too supplementative, but the queen is more suitable.
Therefore, Murong Hui hurriedly had breakfast, so he took the soup and the blessing bag and rushed to Fengyi Palace.
"Auntie, can you have breakfast?"
Murong Hui held the blessing bag and asked with a smile.
"Not yet, I've been a little lazy these days, and I've gotten up a little late."
Lin Yingxue smiled, and her eyes fell on the lucky bag in Murong Hui's hand.
Murong Hui asked people to put the soup on the table, and then personally handed over the blessing bag: "Auntie, at this time, Hui'er embroidered it by herself, I wish you and the child in your womb can be safe." ”
"Hui'er has a heart."
Lin Yingxue ordered someone to tie the lucky bag to the head of the bed, and when she saw that people began to set up breakfast, she walked to the table and asked people to start making dishes.
Murong Hui gave Lin Yingxue a bowl of soup and handed it to Lin Yingxue.
Lin Yingxue took the soup, her expression couldn't help but pause, and before she could speak, she saw the grandmother beside her and exclaimed: "Niangniang, don't drink it, there is saffron in this soup!" ”
As she spoke, she snatched the soup excitedly, and gently scooped it with a spoon to scoop up a spoonful of red petals.
Murong Hui couldn't help but gasp when she saw this, and said nervously: "Auntie, Hui'er has never harmed you!" This soup was sent by the imperial dining room, and Hui'er didn't move a mouthful, so she brought it to you! ”
"Back to the queen's mother, Princess Linghui's breakfast this morning is a pot of stewed veal with sour bamboo shoots, a bowl of green stem rice, a plate of shredded radish with hanging flowers, a plate of crushed seaweed, a plate of fried deer breast with sprouts and leeks, a cup of orchid drink, and no cordyceps soup."
After listening to this, the head of the imperial dining room on the side saw Lin Yingxue looking at him, and hurriedly answered.
"These dishes were brought back by the old slave himself from the imperial dining room, and I didn't meet anyone on the way, and there is indeed this cordyceps soup today!"
Seeing this, Mama Huang hurriedly knelt on the ground and said excitedly.
