Chapter 243
The people who came to report the funeral in the Queen Mother's palace ran in a hurry, and even when they entered the Jinluan Palace, they even rolled and climbed, which was out of character.
The emperor didn't even bother to do face-saving work, there was no trace of sadness at all, the Eagle King hurried to the Queen Mother's palace, Mo Zhuohan and the third prince received the news from the Eagle King, and immediately entered the palace.
The last one to arrive when the king of Jin arrived, the eighth prince stood in the side hall, and he didn't seem to have any intention of going in, the prince had already left the palace, and he didn't let people pass it back, so it can be seen that he was completely disgusted.
The queen said that she was not sick, and when she heard that some of the female relatives of the family entered the palace to mourn, there was a lot of discussion among the government and the opposition for a while, but she also knew that the emperor was now the real power, and the power of the queen mother had gone.
The Eagle Princess ordered the whole house to change into mourning clothes, the Eagle King wanted to keep filial piety in the palace, and would not return to the house for a while.
The whole country is white, the streets and alleys are no longer jubilant and frolic, and the sound of selling is replaced by mourning. The Queen Mother was dressed neatly, obviously committed suicide, he had no objection to the death of the Queen Mother, the struggle for power, the Queen Mother was defeated, and naturally she had to pay the price, and the Queen Mother walked peacefully.
The emperor came over, simply put on a stick of incense, in order to worry about delaying the wedding date of the eighth prince, let Mu Zhixi enter the palace, in the queen mother's mourning hall, the eighth prince and Mu Zhixi performed a worship ceremony, so that you don't have to keep filial piety for three years, and wait until the queen mother has passed a hundred days, and the wedding date is set, you can handle it, but it can't be done big.
Mu Zhixi was dressed elegantly and sat in the yard in a daze, Mu Ningyuan was tired of studying, and when he walked in the garden, he undoubtedly saw his sister sitting on the swing rack, although the sun was good, but it was not as good as his sister's color.
"What are you thinking?" Mu Ningyuan said in a gentle tone, moved indifferently, and sat down at the stone table, Mu Xiang asked people to serve tea to the son, with a bit of the momentum of a big girl.
Mu Zhixi pretended to be unfattened, and he had just come back from the palace, so he stayed here without saying a word: "Brother, my father sent a letter, saying that my grandmother heard about my marriage, and she was very angry, and she wanted to come to the capital and live in the house." ”
Mu Ningyuan was not surprised at all, his grandmother's old face was as thick as a city wall, no face and no skin, for the sake of gold and silver power, any low-level and low-level means of privacy could be made, it was really vicious: "When I received the letter, I didn't give it to my brother, because I was worried about affecting my brother's mood of studying?" Sister, it's hard for you all these years, and I'm going to plan for my brother everywhere, and my brother is ashamed. ”
Mu Zhixi hurriedly waved his hand: "Brother, these trivial things are always there, and they are the things of the back house, how can everything make you troubled, getting fame is the right way, a difficult person like my grandmother, if my sister is attacked, she will definitely be charged with unfilial piety, but she is the one who designed to kill her mother, how can I support her, my sister is unwilling." ”
"The Eighth Prince is really like a god, before the marriage, he guessed these things, so we moved here, it is not appropriate for you and me to live here, and my grandmother can't live in it justifiably, it is shameless to spread it, this is the Eighth Prince's other courtyard."
Mu Zhixi's face finally showed a smile, thinking of the man with a cold face and a warm heart, he suddenly looked forward to his future life.
Liu Shu was very worried, the fall of the crown prince and the queen mother made her really annoyed, what they promised could not be fulfilled, she had to find another way, the forces in the court were one-sided, and the king of Jin was even more like a fish in water, even Concubine Rong disliked her, and she didn't want to deal with it at all, she didn't know where to start for a while.
Leng Yan avoided everyone, quietly sneaked into Fengqi Palace, and nested under a corridor for a long time, Fang saw Liu Shu coming lazily, and his appearance really scared Liu Shu, "This is a letter from the prince to you, do what you say, otherwise, you send a message to the queen mother, and the matter of framing the queen and the king of Jin will be turned out." ”
Leng Yan completed the task and left in a flash, and the prince went to the imperial tomb, allowing Leng Yan to contact the cold door. The imperial mausoleum is gloomy, as soon as you enter the underground palace, you feel that the cold is pressing, and now it is almost summer.
The prince was practicing, the long sword was shot, dancing and dancing, and when there was a stick of incense, the prince put away the long sword and picked up a sweat towel to wipe the sweat, "Delivered?" ”
"Well, that woman doesn't look very peaceful."
"We all fell into the clouds and mud, trampled on by others, where is there anyone who is willing to obey our orders, doing this, just to make the queen's side of Mama Liu turn against her, Liu Shu poisoned the princess of Jin, in exchange for the anger and severe punishment of the king of Jin, as the mother of the mother, Mama Liu will naturally be distracted from the queen."
Leng Yan opened his mind in an instant, the reason why Leng Shaochen was reluctant to come to see the prince, dying and struggling, and revenge, in this world, only this kind of person is the most shameless.
"You continue to pay attention to the situation in the palace, if there is a change, send back the news in time, and in addition, let people stimulate Yan Ting, I believe she will not disappoint us." The prince smiled siniestly, and in the faint candlelight, he looked cold and piercing.
Mu Xuan heard that someone was looking for her, and she beat a drum in her heart, she had no acquaintances in Mexico, could it be that the people of King Yu Zhan or the crown prince recognized her, it seems that she should be careful when entering and exiting in the future.
She came to the corner gate of the backyard hard, no matter what, she had to know the purpose of the visitor, so that she could wait for the opportunity to move, Mu Qing became more and more moisturized, and the war king's hatred for her spoiling couldn't bring all the good things in the world to her.
Dyeing is even more about her, even Mu Qing's safety in and out is three layers inside and three layers outside, more than the king of war, Mu Xuan sees it in her eyes and is angry in her heart.
When she arrived at the corner door where the cook who bought vegetables in the backyard often came and went, Mu Xuan probed her brain through the crack in the door, trying to see the appearance of the person who came, but she could only see a back, she reluctantly opened the door and flashed out, "Childe, are you looking for me?" ”
The man turned around, didn't speak, handed her a letter, and left quickly, so fast that Mu Xuan was surprised, as if she hadn't seen it at all, in fact, she really didn't see the other party's face.
When he came back to his senses, he hurriedly put the letter close to his chest, entered the door, trotted, returned to the yard, and continued to weed the flowers. But his heart was pounding, his eyes were erratic, and it took a long time to settle down.
The small courtyard under the inky sky, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, quiet, and the slight footsteps can occasionally be heard across the courtyard, which should be the maid passing by and the subordinate on duty.
Liu Shu held the waist bag in his hand uneasily, his lips were pale, and he was trembling all over, if he poisoned the princess of Jin, the king of Jin would definitely divide her into five horses, if she did not follow the requirements of the abolished prince, then her disgraceful transaction with the queen mother would be known by the queen mother, and she would not be allowed by Fengqi Palace to eat inside and out. 120
Looking at the well on campus, the moonlight was projected in it, glowing with cloud yellow light, she was reluctant to jump, she was still young, she would have a good time in the future, she didn't want to die like this.
After thinking about it, she hit Feng'er with her idea, she is Mama Liu's own daughter, Feng'er is the girl that Mama Liu picked up by accident out of the palace, Mama Liu has never treated Feng'er badly for so many years, she has it, Feng'er will have it.
After raising it for so many years, it should always be rewarded. She was ruthless, clenched her fists, and felt that Feng'er should carry the black pot for her, but she never considered that Yu Feng'er was kind to Mama Liu, what did she do, people are like this, they are too selfish in their bones, they become hideous, and they don't care about others at all, maybe in the face of survival, even Mama Liu's life and death have no time to take care of it.
Mu Xuan got up secretly, tiptoed to put on her clothes, bypassed the other sleeping palace maids in the same bedroom, slipped to the room, looked left and right, and felt that it was safe, so she opened the latch of the kitchen door.
By the light of the fire in the stove, she could see the contents of the paper, and her face, which had been gloomy for a long time, became brighter, and a bright smile crept up her brow.
When she got carried away, a big hand quietly reached out to her, and in a daze, the letter in her hand was snatched away.
A mouthful of yellow teeth, triangular eyes, and a lewd-trivial middle-aged man-lust-squinted at her chest one after another: "I said what are you doing sneakily in the kitchen, it turns out that there is a conspiracy, how about it?" Let Lao Tzu catch it right, if it is sent to the prince, you say, how much benefit can Lao Tzu get? ”
He played chess with his legs, and simply did it to the side, but he was not in a hurry to leave, let alone shout, and summoned the others over, Mu Xuan concluded that he had other plans, "I just read a letter from my cousin, you can take it, and see what the prince will reward you." ”
The man flipped a few times in annoyance, he was illiterate, naturally he couldn't read, and then he thought about it, no, "Fool me into being illiterate, why don't you read the letter in the form generously, it doesn't matter if it's my brother's letter, the palace doesn't care about this, you are so hidden, it's not a good thing to be accurate, forget it, I'll take this letter, find a literate one to read tomorrow, and I'll get it." ”
After speaking, she was really going to leave, and these Mu Xuan were a little anxious.
Stretched out his hand to press the door, leaned on the door, and smiled sweetly, which made the man's heart itch: "Big brother, look, why let my ugly things be known to everyone, who didn't make some mistakes when they were young, I saved some silver these days, less than ten taels, bring it, all for you." ”
Ten taels of silver, put in the average poor family, enough for a few years. The man was just about to be tempted, but he retreated back, "Money, Lao Tzu wants it, and people want it." ”
After speaking, regardless of Mu Xuan's resistance, he pounced, it was late at night, and Mu Xuan was a thief again, so he naturally didn't dare to shout, and he was taken advantage of by this filthy man who came out of nowhere.
After the third watch, the man let her go with satisfaction, "Tell you, don't think that Lao Tzu can let you go just like this, at this time tomorrow, Lao Tzu is still waiting for you here, if you don't come, Lao Tzu will go to the prince to expose you, indecent, but was kicked out of the house, see how you live." ”
In this world, anyone who is pressed with a disorderly hat will sink into the pond, the man is not stupid, after the fish and water are happy, he naturally knows that she is not a virgin, she is still a girl, but she has lost her innocence, if people know, the punishment is heavier than that of the pond.
Mu Xuan trembled angrily, no matter how bad she was, she couldn't commit to such a man, once it was already the limit, but she had to repeat it again and again, but if she didn't obey him and let the king of war see her, then the plan of revenge would be completely ruined.
The man picked her up, wrapped her in clothes, urged her to get the money, and threatened that Lao Tzu would go to the casino tomorrow.
Mu Xuan returned to the bedroom, disgusted as if she had swallowed a fly, and wished that she could burn that man to death.
The dyed person came back to report very clearly, and even Mu Xuan's expression answered very sincerely, and Dye Qing raised Erlang's legs, "Big brother, you said that Mu Xuan escaped from death, didn't find a place, and hid quietly, and she could still run to the War King's Mansion and be a slave and maid for others. ”
"She is a vicious woman, and she has been reduced to being a kiln sister, and she is trying to compete with Mu Qing, which is really bold." Dye Cheng slammed the teacup in his hand against the door panel.
Dye Qing jumped up almost in the air, "What? She actually came for Mu Qing, this girl is so vicious, when she was in the north, she did everything against Mu Qing, we couldn't be angry, but Mu Qing was generous, never cared, fell to this step of the field, did not repent, and still had the mind of harming people, such people were cramped and skinned, and were thrown out to feed the dogs. ”
The firmness in his eyes deepened, "You wait and see, I will make her regret that she shouldn't have met Mu Qing." ”
"Big brother, how did you know that she got in, the palace is not small, and there are many people, on weekdays, we can't pay attention to those who are deliberately hiding?" Dye's question attracted a sneer.
"It was the King of War who told me that he had been busy with the affairs of the palace recently, and he was worried that he would not be able to do so, so he asked Mu Qing to recruit Mu Xuan's black hand, and specially asked me to pay attention to it."
"Oh, big brother, that Ah Fu, what are you going to do, last time he failed to complete the task, and came to ask you for a large amount of money, I think that Ah Fu can't stay."
"They have followed Shangguan in the Mexican Kingdom for many years, and some things can be done more than ours, although Ling Ruizhi is temporarily protected by the War King, it is not a long-term solution."
Dye Cheng pondered how to send this news to the Eagle King's Mansion without a trace, and Ah Fu's appearance might also be useful.
As expected, Ling Ruizhi and Yunshang also noticed Mu Xuan's existence, the eighth princess of the northern kingdom, arrogant and arrogant, rampaging in the northern country like a man, there are not a few who have seen her true face, Yunshang even had a drink with the eighth princess at the palace banquet in the northern kingdom, and naturally remembered her appearance.
Ling Ruizhi couldn't figure out the purpose of Mu Xuan's trip, he wasn't dyed, and he didn't know Mu Xuan's thoughts. After staying in the War King's Mansion for a while, he temporarily escaped from the Eagle King's encirclement and interception, "Yunshang, you have to find a way to disguise yourself and go out, listen to the details of the people who sent the letter, since we want to get the protection of the War King, we should also do something." ”
