Chapter 724: The Situation of the Lan Kingdom

Murong Hui hurriedly took the letter sent by Princess Huaqing and unfolded it to read it carefully.

This letter is very short, but it is only a few strokes, but it writes about the difficult situation of Princess Huaqing now.

Her father had died in battle, her two brothers were fighting for the throne before, and many enemy countries took the opportunity to sneak attack the Lan country, and the entire Lan country was in turmoil.

She couldn't live anymore, and she thought in her heart that if her brother sold her in order to pave the way for herself, she would die and end up quiet.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Murong Hui's letter suddenly came, and she felt that her heart was suddenly steady, and everything seemed to have taken a turn and was developing in a good direction.

"It's a pity that Sang Ning can't come to Rongguo."

After closing the letter, Murong Hui muttered regretfully.

"That's good."

Qingyue knew Murong Hui's thoughts, but she couldn't change her straightforwardness.

After all, in her eyes, Lan Country has always been just a small place, and the entire country is only the size of two states in Rongguo.

Such a small country has declined too much in recent decades, and even the palace maids know about it.

Murong Hui sighed and urged Qingyue to go out to inquire about the results of the negotiations between Rong Guo and Lan Guo.

Qingyue got the order, hurriedly ran out, and inquired for two days before telling Murong Hui the result.

The second prince of the Lan Kingdom, that is, the elder brother of Princess Huaqing, ascended the throne and became the new emperor of the Lan Kingdom, and now he has officially formed an alliance with the Rong State, and will pay tribute to the Rong State every year in the future.

"Didn't you mention the war?"

Murong Hui always felt that Qingyue seemed to be saying something less, so she hurriedly asked.

Qing Yue laughed and said, "As soon as the alliance between Rong Guo and Lan Guo came out, where did the surrounding small countries dare to provoke?" It has long since retreated without a fight. ”

Murong Hui nodded, she didn't know on the side, but since the Jizhou Commander and other officials were disposed of, Murong Jun and Lin Yingxue completely controlled the political situation and military power of Rong Guo.

Rongguo is indeed in a thriving situation, and if the surrounding small countries have no support, they will definitely not have the courage to argue with Rongguo.

"Has the letter been delivered to Fengyi Palace?"

Murong Hui had already written a reply, waiting for the Lan State delegation to leave, and then sent the letter back to Hua Qing.

"It's already been delivered."

Qingyue smiled as she spoke, and without waiting for Murong Hui to ask, she continued to say proudly: "Your Highness doesn't know that the county lord of Wanyi is now smart, and he didn't have a hard time with the side concubine, but used means to make the side concubine make frequent mistakes when she was housekeeping, and the people in the entire Ling Wangfu were dissatisfied with this side concubine." ”

Murong Hui nodded, feeling that the county lord of Wanyi was not smart, she was very smart before.

It's just because the background is too good, the qualifications are too high, the life is too smooth, and the temperament is too arrogant, so it will be easily calculated.

Now that she has suffered too many setbacks, she naturally calmed down and learned to endure and hibernate before she would do such a thing, such a Wanyi county lord is obviously more terrifying, but fortunately, she is not targeting herself now.

"Let that side concubine know that Wanyi is dealing with her, and make sure they are evenly matched."

Murong Hui calmly looked at the materials sent by the Internal Affairs Office to make winter clothes, and said lightly.

Qingyue nodded, even if Murong Hui didn't say anything about this, they would do it.

"The eldest prince dragged someone to bring you tea, saying that King Ling rewarded him, and sent some for you to taste."

Mama Huang walked in at this time, still holding a delicate porcelain jar in her hand.

One look at this porcelain jar shows that the eldest prince is doing well now, and it will definitely not be his turn to have something of such quality in the past.

"Lushan Yunwu is indeed a good tea, tell him not to send it in the future, so as not to be seen by others."

Murong Hui said, and then brought two purses and beckoned Mama Huang to follow her to visit Murong An and Murong Ning.

These days are boring, so she has never been in the mood to do embroidery, so it has been delayed until now that the two purses are embroidered.

Mama Huang couldn't help but smile after seeing it, she had already reminded Murong Hui that she was going to set up the two princes, and now that Murong Hui was willing to take the initiative to go over, it was naturally a good thing.

The two of them took their things and rushed all the way to the place where the two princes lived, and they were always in the palace at this time on weekdays.

However, when they came this time, they did pounce, and the little eunuch guarding the door said bluntly that the two princes went to the Zhuangyuan Building to play with their companions, and they would not come back today.

Murong Hui raised her eyebrows, always feeling that the eunuch was lying, but she didn't expose the eunuch's lies, and after putting down the purse, she left in a hurry.

On the way back, Mama Huang's face was always a little gloomy, but she was afraid that Murong Hui would be too distracted, so she didn't say anything.

After returning all the way back to the east side hall, she went out to inquire, and sure enough, she found that the two princes did not leave the palace, but ran to the horse farm of Princess Rouhe to play.

When Mama Huang heard this, she became a little angry in her heart, and the same princess Murong Hui was still a blood relative to them.

They can't get along with Murong Hui, but they want to get along with a foreign woman, how can this make people not angry?

However, after the anger, Mama Huang began to worry, for fear that the new emperor's accession to the throne in the future would be unfavorable to Murong Hui.

She endured it for a few days, but she couldn't bear it after all, and said the worries in her heart.

"Mama thinks too far, even if I have a mediocre relationship with them in the future, as long as I don't make mistakes, they will not deliberately embarrass me."

Murong Hui shook her head, with what she knew about those two cousins, these two were not masters who liked to do nothing.

Mama Huang sighed, and seeing Murong Hui's indifferent appearance, she couldn't help but feel angry and powerless.

However, she knew that this matter was not in a hurry, so she secretly suppressed her thoughts, just waiting to see how these two princes and Murong Hui would come up with it in the future.

Murong An and Murong Ning originally really planned to leave the palace, but they were stopped by Lin Yingxue, and the two of them were upset, and they happened to meet Rouhe, so they followed Rouhe to the racecourse to relax, but they didn't deliberately hide it from Murong Hui.

After they returned to the palace, they learned that Murong Hui had come, and they also gave two purses to the two of them.

A trace of panic flashed on Murong Ning's face, Lin Yingxue had said that they should stay away from Princess Rouhe.

Not only did they go to the horse farm, but they also rode horses with Princess Rouhe, if Lin Yingxue knew about this, she would definitely be angry.

"She didn't know we went to the horse farm."

After he said the worry in his heart, Murong An immediately smiled.

Murong Ning shook his head and said with certainty: "Sister Hui will definitely know, we have to go and find out." ”

A trace of impatience immediately flashed on Murong An's face, since he was stunned by Murong Hui last time, he hated seeing Murong Hui even more.

"Go ahead, and if she insists on telling her mother about this, warn her."

Murong An picked up the purse and took a look, the purse was embroidered quite carefully, and on it was the coniferous pine he liked, and he was quite satisfied and ordered someone to put it away.

Murong Ning nodded, asked people to bring the two plates of dim sum just sent by the imperial dining room, and hurriedly walked towards the east side hall.

The place where the two lived was far away, and by the time he reached the east side hall, it was dark.

After waiting for the people to report, he walked into the east side hall quickly, adjusted his mood, and said with a smile: "Sister Hui, I'll bring you a snack." ”

Murong Hui was a little surprised, hurriedly asked him to sit down, poured him tea, and looked at Murong Ning.

I saw that Murong Ning was still wearing the clothes he was reading in the study, and he was sweating on his head in such a cold weather.

It shows that he is in a hurry, and he definitely has something to say.

The two chatted for a while, but Murong Ning never said the reason, and Murong Hui didn't want to go around the bend, so she hurriedly smiled: "What is the matter with Ning'er, and what can't I say?" ”

"Sister Hui's embroidered purse is even beautiful, my brother and I like it very much, but we are not there on the day you send something...... I didn't mean to hide it from you, but my mother didn't like us to get too close to Aunt Rouge. ”

He was still a child after all, and his face turned a little red after saying his mother's instructions.

"I didn't mention to anyone that you went to the horse farm to ride a horse with your aunt, but my aunt already knew about it, and there was nothing in this palace that could be hidden from her."

Seeing him say this, Murong Hui naturally knew what he was here for, so he simply reminded.

When Murong Ning heard this, his face turned even redder than before, and after being silent for a moment, he asked in a low voice: "Aunt Gentle has a hearty temperament, and her equestrian skills are even first-class, even the masters in the palace are not as good as her equestrian skills, why do my mothers dislike her so much?" ”

As soon as Murong Hui saw him like this, she knew that this kid was afraid that he didn't see it, and softened his thoughts towards Murong Jun.

It's just that she can't say these words clearly, and it's not what she should say.

After thinking about it for a while, she ordered someone to bring the lotus jade pendant and hand it to Murong Ning.

Murong Ning took the lotus jade pendant in surprise, not understanding what Murong Hui meant.

Murong Hui simply told Murong Ning all the stories of the lotus garden and the lotus jade pendant.

At the end, she said calmly: "When I was in Jizhou, my aunt asked my brother-in-law for this piece of jade, but my sister-in-law didn't give it to her. ”

Murong Ning's pupils constricted after hearing this, he is the prince in the end, he has seen a lot of the market, and he is extremely intelligent, and he will be connected after a little thought.

Now that I think of the various actions of the gentle princess, I will definitely feel a chill down my spine.

"Thank you Sister Hui for mentioning it, it's not early, I'd rather leave."

Putting down the lotus jade pendant, Murong Ning got up and hurriedly walked out, his steps were a little messy.

"The second prince is a child in the end."

Mama Huang pursed her lips and smiled, and a stone in her heart finally landed.

Murong Hui ordered someone to put away the lotus jade pendant, and went to the study to practice calligraphy, and the one in his hand was the freesia paper sent by Princess Huaqing.

This kind of paper is a specialty of the Lan country, and only the nobles of the Lan country can use it.

Using this kind of paper to learn characters, the effect is really much better than before, and Murong Hui couldn't help but write for a while.

Qingyue came in and added carbon a few times, and seeing that Murong Hui didn't plan to go to bed yet, she simply stood in the study and waited quietly.

After Murong Hui finished practicing the words, she raised her head and found that she was staring at the ground with her head down.

"Your Highness, why don't you save these uses, Rongguo doesn't produce this kind of paper."

Qingyue couldn't help but ask when she saw Murong Hui finish writing.

"In the future, Ronglan and Lan will trade, and such paper will definitely be sold, and Sang Ning gave me the paper, and asked me to help her make a publicity."

Murong Hui smiled, and said that there are always many interests involved between her and Princess Huaqing, but in the end, they are all kind.
