Seventy-third Returning home

At this time, the eldest princess of Yongshou is no longer the eldest princess who has been honored all her life, and she is just an ordinary mother who misses her daughter who marries far away.

The moment she saw Princess Mu's figure, tears had already burst out of the embankment. The mother and daughter hugged and cried in the courtyard, and on such an occasion it was not suitable for the men in the family to go up and mingle, and the He and Ouyang families, who had been closely following the eldest princess of Yongshou, stepped forward to gently comfort them, and the four daughters-in-law of the two of them temporarily persuaded the two to separate.

He and Ouyang supported the eldest princess of Yongshou, their daughters-in-law and Princess Mu supported them, and the other two instructed the maids in the palace to quickly prepare hot water to clean their faces and reshape their makeup for the eldest princess of Yongshou and Princess Mu.

For a while, the hostesses of the family were all scattered, and only the helpless Liu family father and son and Mu Tingyu standing outside the hall were left in the front hall of the main hall.

"Is it Cousin Yu?" Liu Changqing, the eldest son of the eldest princess of Yongshou, Liu Chen's second son, works in the Jinqiwei and deals with all kinds of people all year round. Seeing that Mu Tingyu was still standing still, he took the initiative to come forward to greet him. "I'm your second cousin, Liu Changqing."

Although Mu Tingyu stood still and did not move, his eyes were not idle for a while.

The Liu family is the most prestigious family in the Jokhang, and the two sons of the eldest princess of Yongshou and the concubine are now even more extraordinary. is in the next generation, all of them are the best among the sons of the imperial capital.

Shan said that the second cousin in front of him joined the Jinqiwei at the age of fourteen, and now he has not yet arrived in his thirties, and he has already served as the deputy commander of the Jinqiwei.

"Mu Shi meets his grandfather and uncle." Mu Tingyu smiled and arched his hand. "I've seen your cousins."

Waiting for the eldest princess of Yongshou and Princess Mu to return with makeup, the concubine immediately stepped forward and took the hand of the eldest princess of Yongshou, and the husband and wife sat down on the main seat hand in hand.

Princess Mu led Mu Tingyu forward and bowed to her parents.

"Hurry up." The eldest princess of Yongshou wet her eyes again.

"Princess, get up." He stepped forward to help Princess Mu and persuaded. "The princess and Brother Yu have been traveling for months to get to the imperial capital, hurry up."

"yes." Ouyang also echoed the persuasion. "I heard that the princess can stay in the imperial capital for a little longer this time."

"Well, I discussed it with my lord." Princess Mu was helped to sit in the position closest to the eldest princess of Yongshou, and Princess Mu wiped her tears while smiling and said to the eldest princess of Yongshou. "I've been married for many years, and it's rare to come back, so I should come back to stay longer. The affairs of the inner courtyard of the palace have been settled for many years, and when I came, I temporarily entrusted the matter to the side concubines in the palace. This time, I was able to spend more time with my father and mother. ”

"Good.... Good. The eldest princess of Yongshou said eagerly. I sent someone to Mu Wangfu's mansion in the imperial capital to see, although there are also Mu Wangfu's descendants to stay to take care of it, but in the end it has been vacant for a long time, and many things have to be temporarily purchased. The twilight courtyard where you married and lived in the mansion has long been cleaned up, and when you go back to the imperial capital, you will take Brother Yu to accompany me well these days. ”

"Mother, I listen to you." Princess Mu looked at her father and mother, whose sideburns had been dyed white, and naturally responded to this matter. "By the way, Brother Yu came forward to show her grandmother." The eldest princess of Yongshou took the hand of the eldest daughter, and it was rare enough, and she thought of it again

The young son of the woman comes.

"Brother Yu." Princess Mu hurriedly pushed her son.

"Grandmother." Mu Tingyu could only smile and stepped forward.

"Brother Yu, you were born in our mansion back then." The eldest princess of Yongshou couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion as she spoke. "When you left the imperial capital, you were still a little doll who had just turned one year old, and in the blink of an eye, you were also a young man. Brother Yu and Xuan'er are generally old, but can you show him his family? ”

"Back to my mother, this child is the youngest son of me and the prince. Thinking that he should not support the family business, nor do he need to inherit the palace, he was somewhat indulgent to him. Princess Mu smiled, patted Mu Tingyu on the shoulder, and said with a smile. He said that the girls in Saibei were rough, he didn't like it, and this time he took the initiative to accompany me to the imperial capital to congratulate you on your birthday, and wanted you to see a family affair for him. ”

"Then you might as well leave Brother Yu in the imperial capital to accompany me for a few years." The eldest princess of Yongshou looked at her handsome grandson and nodded. "If you and your prince can rest assured, I will be the master of Brother Yu'er's marriage in the future."

"We can rest assured that our mother's status in Dazhao is noble, and the girls we can contact must be nobles from the family, no matter their appearance and life experience, they must be the best." A glimmer of light flashed in Princess Mu's eyes, and she hurriedly responded with a smile. "You can't be wrong about the girl you look at for Brother Yu."

Princess Mu took Mu Tingyu to stay in the eldest princess of Yongshou, and the He family of Cangduyuan where she lived before she got married had already ordered someone to clean it up. Everything was replaced with new ones, and the furniture and incense were arranged according to her habits.

The eldest princess of Yongshou took Princess Mu's hand and entered the boudoir where she had lived for fifteen years before she got married.

"Look, your brother and sister have asked me about your preferences one by one, and they have been carefully arranged." The eldest princess of eternal life said.

"The snow plum picture you painted on the wall was originally hung in my room all these years, but I specially moved it back this time."

"Mother...."Princess Mu looked at the room and seemed that time had never passed in this room, and she had spent the best girl's time here. It was also here that she changed into a red wedding dress, and was carried by her younger brother into a carriage to marry Saibei. "My daughter is not filial."

"What is unfilial about you?" The eldest princess of Yongshou took the hand of her eldest daughter, who was the first child of her and her husband, and she had carefully raised her with all her efforts. "The marriage of King Mu's Mansion said that your father and I fell in love with you for you, and we should not be able to live with you."

"Mother, I'm doing well." Princess Mu smiled with tears in her eyes. "I married into King Mu's mansion and never had a bad day. My in-laws respect me, the prince values me, my eldest son is the son of the world, everything is good. ”

"You are the same as your sister, you have always reported good news and not bad news." The eldest princess of eternal life said. "You have your problems, I know that. A few years ago, there was a side concubine in your palace who was dishonest and almost ruined your sister's marriage, have you never talked about it? ”

"Mother, the concubine is just a trivial matter, she is her mother-in-law's niece, my mother-in-law treats me like a daughter, and it doesn't hurt for me to let Concubine Lu give in to one or two." Princess Mu said indifferently. "And my sister's marriage didn't go wrong in the end, and before I left, my sister specially sent someone back to the palace to report the good news, saying that there was already good news."

"That's good." The eldest princess of Yongshou stroked her daughter's hand and said. "Tell me, your marriage to your sister seems to be perfect, but each has its own disadvantages."

"Mother, things in the world are always like this, where is perfect." Princess Mu smiled. "I see that my sister is doing well in the palace, and I haven't seen the two princes yet, but I have seen Xuan'er. Like when my sister was young, she was clever and cute, and now Xuan'er is fifteen years old, and I don't know which kid I should be cheaper in the future. ”

"Isn't it?" Speaking of her beloved granddaughter, the eldest princess of Yongshou swept away the gloom on her face and said happily.

"Your two younger brothers were born sons, your sister is far away, and I am a granddaughter like Xuan'er. She is well-behaved, cute, and on the same day as His Majesty's birthday, she is favored by His Majesty, and her status is still above the prince. ”

"Well, I also heard that on the day of Xuan'er and Lu, His Majesty gave her the title of Princess Zhaoyue." Princess Mu said.

"Yes, the general rule of Dazhao is that the princess will only give the title on the day of her marriage, even I did it back then." When the eldest princess of Yongshou talked about this, she couldn't help but be very proud. "Xuan'er is only fifteen years old, and before the marriage has been decided, she has a title and a fief."

"Mother, didn't Your Majesty and Sister tell you about their plans to marry Xuan'er?"

"Xuan'er is still childish, and besides, she has a sister in front of her who is not married." The eldest princess of Yongshou said indifferently, in her eyes, her granddaughter is good at everything, and naturally she will not worry about getting married. "Your Majesty also said that the princess of the royal family married much later, so she looked more noble, and she was ready to stay for a few more years."

"Xuan'er's sister in front of her? It's Concubine Chen's daughter, right? "Speaking of which, Concubine Chen is older than Concubine Liuhuang, and when she was still in the boudoir, she and Princess Mu were also acquaintances." That's the eldest princess, she should be four years older than Xuan'er, and she should be twenty, but the marriage hasn't been decided yet? ”

"It's also strange to say, Concubine Chen has a cowardly temperament since she was in the boudoir, and it is good to have a daughter, and she has a domineering temper." Speaking of her granddaughter's rival, the eldest princess of Yongshou was also indignant. "Her temper and temperament, coupled with Concubine Chen's lack of favor for many years, make it difficult to get married."

Then, the eldest princess of Yongshou gossiped a little about Concubine Chen and her mother, the old lady of Ding'anhou, who wanted to marry Xiao Lu back to the Ding'an Hou Mansion, but the old lady of Ding'anhou was told to Princess Mu that she was angry with the Ding'an Hou prince who insisted on taking a Qinglou woman as a concubine, and Emperor Chu no longer favored Xiao Lu, but that was also his first daughter, who was treated so lightly, and was furious, not only ordered to reprimand Ding'an Hou's father and son, but also broke off this family business.

"Mother is saying that the eldest princess actually took a fancy to the second brother's young son?!" Xiao Lu took a fancy to Liu Changjun's affairs, but Princess Mu didn't know about it.

"The children of the Liu family are all good-looking, and it is natural to be looked at by others." Speaking of her own children, the eldest princess of Yongshou is also very complacent. "I don't want Changjun to have such a wife, Changjun is an assertive child who chose Deng as his wife. Although his background is poor, he is also a good child. ”
