Chapter 9: The Eve of the Palace Banquet
When he turned around, it was really Liang Chu's angry eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Liang Chu stepped forward to push aside her body and walked straight towards Su Nianru, carefully helping her up, but only listened to her, "Your Majesty, Sister Mu probably made an unintentional mistake, so don't blame her." ”
Being pushed to the side, Mu Ling took a few steps back to stabilize his figure, and when he heard Su Nianru's explanation, he couldn't help but sneer, the queen's play is really good! Not only distorted the reason, but also showed his generous capacity without marginality, which is really wonderful!
It's just that for the sake of her little nobleman, she can't help but make a little too much fuss!
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the sneer on Mu Ling's face, and Su Nianru's face turned pale.
Liang Chu helped Su Nianru's body up, but when he saw Mu Ling with a sneer on his face, his mind immediately sank, he thought that she might just be an unintentional mistake, but now it seems that this is not the case. Mu Ling's previous image in his heart collapsed instantly, he thought that she was different from those concubines who competed for favor in the harem, but now it seems that she is no better.
He said coldly, "Mu Guiren, as a nobleman, but he committed a ...... offense."
"Wait!" The sneer on Mu Ling's face suddenly put away, his eyes stared straight at Liang Chu, and he was very disappointed in his heart, the queen could deceive him with a little trick, and now, she couldn't be wronged like this, and said, "The queen mother fell down by herself just now, what does it have to do with me!" ”
I'm afraid that when I saw Liang Chu coming, I thought of it temporarily!
"Sister Mu," Su Nianru's gentle voice had a hint of crying, and the cunning in her eyes had been well hidden, "How could I fall down myself to frame you," she cried to Liang Chu again, "Your Majesty, the concubine Dao Mu Guicai came out of the cold palace, all kinds of humility, but was treated like this, if he is not punished today, how will the concubine manage this harem in the future and share the emperor's worries?" ”
Su Nianru said sincerely, and cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, Liang Chu wiped away the tears for her with his fingertips with pity, and the eyes that looked at Mu Ling also became colder, "Mu Guiren knows his mistakes and does not change, go to the Buddhist hall to copy the Buddhist scriptures for three days to atone for the queen!" ”
Mu Ling's face was as cold as ice, and his tone became sharp, "I'll say it again, it was the queen mother who fell down by herself, what does it have to do with me!" ”
The emperor was speechless for a while, and the surroundings were even more silent, and the sound of the needle landing could be heard clearly, and everyone was stunned, because at this time, the emperor's face was already faintly angry.
"Your Majesty," a eunuch trotted over from afar, his face was already covered with sweat, knelt on the ground, and said in a slightly flustered voice, "Princess Jiande is back." ”
Liang Chu's resentful face finally ushered in a touch of joy, and with a flick of his sleeves, he said, "Send the queen back to the palace." Then he took a deep look at Mu Ling and turned to leave.
"Hmph," as soon as Liang Chu left his sight, Su Nianru pinched the knuckles of his handkerchief and turned white, approached Mu Ling slightly, and said coldly, "Mu Guiren, we will have a meeting later." ”
After speaking, he also led the palace people to leave.
The two masters who could speak left, and the guards naturally dispersed, Mu Ling was not taken to the Buddha hall, and walked forward in fear after the cigarette, and said worriedly, "Niangniang, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay," Mu Ling's hand in his sleeve clenched into a fist, there has never been a shortage of intrigue in this harem, the queen is still obvious today, just to give her a dismount, if she dares to be restless and keep to herself in the future, the queen has a way to make her disappear from this world forever.
Shrinking her neck, Mu Ling's face was already as usual, it seemed that a place like the harem was really not suitable for her!
was interrupted by the queen, and she didn't have the heart to go to the hospital, so she simply went back to her Muxiyuan.
Make up your mind, before leaving the palace, Mu Ling has to live in simple terms, things must be avoided, and those concubines and the like are best not seen.
However, the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny, Mu Ling just returned to the courtyard with his front foot, and the father-in-law who passed the decree on the back foot came, saying that there was a palace banquet to celebrate the return of Princess Jian'an in the evening, and all the concubines of the grade had to attend.
Looking at the cigarettes that were busy collecting the east and west, Mu Ling drooped her head, she didn't understand, what was there to be happy about, like this kind of palace banquet, the queen and concubine had to attend, and she didn't even know how to die if she didn't get it.
"Niangniang, are you good at wearing this Liuyun butterfly dress?"
Before half the afternoon, Gong Yan began to prepare clothes for Mu Ling to attend the palace banquet, holding a skirt in one hand and asking.
Mu Ling glanced at it, this dress is beautiful, but she is not going to a beauty pageant, why is she wearing such a good look, "Don't." ”
"Then this peony-colored one! The mother put on the custody of the glamorous crowd. ”
"No, change it."
"Do you want to wear this pink one?"
"Change!"
……
After being busy in the second and a half afternoons, Mu Ling finally chose a plain shirt, which was not too grand or too rude.
On the contrary, Rim Smoke chattered all the way, saying that such a plain dress would be flattened by other ladies and so on.
Ignoring her nagging, Mu Ling sent her back to get a cloak, and then went into the garden where the palace banquet was held. It is said that this is the garden that the queen mother rewarded Princess Jian'an and Lu, and the emperor chose to set up a banquet here, firstly, to add some popularity to her garden, and secondly, since the princess has reached the year of marriage, it is natural to find a candidate for her concubine. The banquet is set up here, which also has this meaning.
Mu Ling also has this second reason for not dressing up ceremoniously, he can't figure out the princess's temperament, and her simplicity is not eye-catching at all.
But everything was not as she thought, because she was stunned as soon as she stepped into the courtyard gate, and almost all the large and small seats under the main seat were full of people, and even the last seat at this time had concubines sitting.
Mu Ling was not sure for a while, there were strange concubines around and sneering, she glanced at it, there were still two empty seats in the crowd, he didn't think about it, so he stepped forward to sit on the free side, and after a while, Liang Yan came here and was slightly surprised to see Mu Ling, "Ah Ling, why are you here?" ”
Mu Ling took the fruit on the table and ate it, and was surprised to see Liang Yan at the same time, but then he was relieved, the palace banquet must be to invite the princes, and said, "I saw that there were no vacancies around, so I did it here, what, this is your position?" ”
Liang Yan nodded, turned to his seat, and wanted to say something to Mu Ling, when he heard a high congratulations, "Your Majesty, the queen mother has arrived." ”
Everyone got up to salute, Mu Ling was no exception, Liang Chu and Su Nianru walked to the main seat and sat down, only then did they look at everyone and said, "Flat." ”
His eyes crossed Prince Yan, and Liang Chu's eyes couldn't help but be stunned, Mu Ling!
The queen's gaze also turned with Liang Chu, and when she saw that it was Mu Ling, she couldn't help but let out a smile, and handed a look to the concubine beside her, and then elegantly picked up the tea in front of the case.
Duyun Beauty understood, then looked at Mu Ling, and sneered, "Mu Gui just came out of the cold palace, but now he doesn't understand the rules more and more!" ”
