Chapter 5 Entering the Palace

"The Queen Mother wants you to do a good job and monitor what I do. All you have to do is say yes, and I'll take care of the rest. ”

Lu Qingfeng will tell you what he means in the future, there is no ripple between the lines, but every word is very important, and many people's lives and deaths are put in this sentence.

Yuan Muqing listened to his words and was very shocked by the Queen Mother's dishonorable behavior, but thinking about it carefully, where did Lu Qingfeng get such important news, he actually had such a ability to get this news from the Queen Mother's side.

Although Yuan Muqing's heart was full of doubts, she didn't ask, she understood, she couldn't ask more than she shouldn't know, whether it was now or after marriage.

After some explanation, Yuan Muqing saw that the time was not early, and wanted to get up and leave, but Lu Qingfeng also stood up with her, as if he wanted to send her.

"Qing'er, I'll let Kuang Lu send two capable mothers-in-law later, and ...... I don't really care about the cumbersome etiquette of getting married, as long as you marry someone at this wedding banquet, I can do it. ”

Yuan Muqing was just about to raise his hand to open the door, when he heard these words from the person behind him, he must have seen her haggardness, guessed her situation, and did not politely greet or complain for her, but just said that he didn't care, as long as the person he married was her......

I don't know when Lu Qingfeng became interested in himself, or if he was just like this...... Frivolous.

But in these few words, Yuan Muqing didn't think he was very proficient, but he was full of ...... Sincerely, I don't know if I was happy or a little frightened by her fiancé's sudden overture, she walked out of the door in a daze, and was helped by Ye Zi to get into the carriage.

Ye Zi saw Miss's soulless appearance, and couldn't help asking, "Miss, is it the King of Lu Hades who intimidated Miss?" ”

Yuan Muqing was still thinking about all the things she had just met, and the accidental touch between the "accidental" made her feel unprecedented novelty, her face became redder and redder, and her heartbeat was getting faster and faster.

Ye Zi looked at his young lady's dejected appearance, raised his voice and shouted again, "Miss!?" Yuan Muqing heard it this time, and hurriedly pulled himself back, "Huh? …… Oh...... Why Hades? ”

"Miss doesn't think that although Lu Gongzi is polite, he is not smiling, and he lives like a king of Hades."

Ye Zi exaggerated in order to tease her, but seeing that Lu Gongzi's face was cold and distant, she originally wanted to talk to her future uncle, but she didn't dare to step forward.

However, the entourage of the son of the "Hades" seems to be very honest, he said that his name is Kuang Lu, this nerd is a little interesting, he asks and answers what he answers when he meets for the first time, and he is not wary at all.

Yuan Muqing heard Ye Zi say this Lu Qingfeng, he ...... Don't smile? She didn't think Lu Qingfeng was very serious, but felt that if others thought he was indifferent, she felt that he was magnanimous and majestic, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

Just wanted to go back to the house to rest, but the Queen Mother sent a message to see her, and after Lu Qingfeng revealed the news to her, she became more and more calm. After a simple grooming, she hadn't tidied herself up for a few days, and Yuan Muqing also asked Ye Zi to help her put on makeup simply.

quickly packed up himself, and followed the eunuch who passed the decree into the palace for an audience. The eunuch surnamed Zheng had a very gentle attitude, and he did not neglect Yuan Muqing at all, and he also took care of her along the way.

From the beginning of entering the palace gate, Yuan Muqing followed the steps of his father-in-law in front of him along the way, and did not dare to look around, and when he entered Renshou Palace, he was even more energetic.

After waiting outside the palace for a while, Gonggong Zheng led him into the palace. As soon as she entered the temple gate, the smell of sandalwood surrounded her, and she still didn't dare to look around, only feeling as if the light was gradually being taken away, and the surroundings were getting darker and darker, and the smell of sandalwood was getting stronger. Gonggong Zheng, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.

"Queen Mother, Xiao Zhengzi brought Miss Yuan Family by order."

As soon as the father-in-law who claimed to be Xiao Zhengzi finished speaking, he stood beside the queen mother, and Yuan Muqing stood alone in the hall, although he was nervous in his heart, there was no mistake in the etiquette in his hand.

"Courtiers Yuan Muqing, meet the Queen Mother, Queen Mother Wan'an."

"Get up. Bestow the seat. The Queen Mother turned around, put down the Buddha beads in her hand, and was helped by Xiao Zhengzi beside her into the main seat, and also "lovingly" gave Yuan Muqing a seat.

"The last time I saw you, I was still married, and if I look at it again today, I still think that your child is really good, and the mourning family looks happy. I don't have anything to do with you today, I just want to ask how the marriage is prepared and what you can tell Xiao Zhengzi if you are missing. ”

The Queen Mother chatted with Yuan Muqing slowly, and praised her, she remembered Lu Qingfeng's advice, and felt more and more that the Queen Mother could knock on every sentence to consider other meanings. Although he was concerned on the surface, Yuan Muqing did not hear any kind and amiable greetings from the elders to the juniors' marriage.

"Empress Dowager Lao remembers, everything is fine."

If she really cares, then she can complain to Ye Zi, but this is in the deep palace, everyone has a seven-trick heart, and she doesn't dare to be presumptuous, if it is really caring, just send someone to help her run an errand like Lu Qingfeng, so it seems that Lu Qingfeng is also concerned.

"I don't know if your father and you are satisfied with this family business, but the mourning family has never gone wrong, Qingfeng is indeed a good boy, I heard that he is rumored in Beijing to be brilliant in writing, very good character, worthy of being a prime minister, what do you think?"

This seems to be a mother talking about her fiancé with her child, but when it comes to the Queen Mother's mouth, the taste changes. It's a pity that Yuan Muqing glanced at Lu Qingfeng when he got married, and just said a few words, how did he know whether he was good at writing, whether his character was good, and whether he could be prime minister.

Yuan Muqing smiled bitterly in his heart, but when he thought of his star-like eyes, good conversation, and the good-smelling bookish atmosphere on his body, Yuan Muqing couldn't help but smile innocently, such a careful and gentle person may really be the lover she should marry.

She didn't have the heart to think more, the Queen Mother was aggressive at the moment, but she didn't expect that before she got married, she would really live and die with him.

"The Queen Mother forgives her sins, the marriage date has not yet arrived, and Mu Qing is not familiar with the son of the Lu family."

"Really? That's right, but the mourning family is confused, Qingfeng, this kid has been studying with the emperor since he was a child, learning words, and the palace feels good every time he sees him. ”

The Queen Mother didn't continue, picked up the tea handed over by the palace maid, drank it gently, and opened the jade mouth again.

"Mu Qing, you are also a good boy, your father has fought for the imperial court for many years, and it is not easy for you to have only one daughter, and your identity is more than enough to be the wife of the prime minister, but Lu Qingfeng is the prime minister, and the palace is very uneasy. This palace hopes that you can assist him more, and if there is any abnormality, you can report it directly to this palace. ”

The Queen Mother's "care" sentences echoed in Yuan Muqing's mind, Lu Qingfeng was a young man with outstanding ability, his father was an old prime minister, and his disciples were many officials in the court, and now the Lu family and the Yuan family and the Su family are about to get married, and the civil and military generals in the court will be a response in the future.

Is the Queen Mother worried that such a powerful person, loyal to the emperor, will threaten her own status? Or will you be afraid that Lu Qing's skills will be high and he will do disloyal things in the future?

If it is the second type, then it is not necessary for the Queen Mother to be so worried, with Yuan Muqing's impression of Lu Qingfeng, he should only be a loyal minister, not a traitor.

Because of Lu Qingfeng's sentence of "help me" Yuan Muqing put himself and the entire Yuan family on the hook in one day, in the face of the Queen Mother's request, she had to gamble, if she didn't agree to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would inevitably do something that threatened her father's safety, and only by promising her that she might be able to survive the royal battle with the Lu family.

Lu Qingfeng's entrustment echoed in his ears, and Yuan Muqing could only make a desperate bet, and promised the Queen Mother for the time being, and then discuss with Lu Qingfeng.

"Obey the Empress Dowager's decree."

"This is a good boy, okay, go back quickly, in order to congratulate you and Qingfeng on getting married, this palace will reward you with twelve palace people, and also help you with the affairs of the new mansion. In addition, this palace will help you add some dowry. ”

Twelve palace people? Does the Queen Mother trust her, or does she want to use the twelve palace people to turn her into a puppet in her hands? Among the twelve palace people, there must be the queen mother's cronies, even if she knew that this was the case, Yuan Muqing had no way to shirk it, just like she had no way to refuse to give marriage.

Thank you, kneeling down, Yuan Muqing walked out of Renshou Palace with relief, the last time she entered the palace, she was given marriage, this time she became a meticulous work to spy on her newlywed husband, even though Lu Qingfeng knew the inside story, but this feeling of being used to take advantage of it was not pleasant.

Sure enough, when Yuan Yi came back in the evening, he brought back the news that the palace had gone to Lu's house to announce the decree, and Lu Qingfeng was appointed prime minister. Before she passed the door, she was going to be the wife of the prime minister, she didn't want these glory and wealth, and there was really no difference between her and her whether the future husband would be a prime minister or not.

Yuan Yi didn't ask much when he learned that Yuan Muqing was summoned to the palace, and only told his daughter, "If the position of the prime minister's wife is not good, then no one should be afraid, continue to come back to be the father's daughter, don't wronged yourself." He patted her hand as he spoke.

Yuan Yi has been fighting all year round, and his hands are thick and backward cocoons, but this is Yuan Muqing's favorite pair of hands.

When she heard her father's words, the tip of her nose was sore, in the face of her father's love, she just wanted to grow up quickly, and had the ability to protect her father and protect the Yuan family, just as her father had protected herself for more than ten years, she also secretly prayed in her heart, hoping that Lu Qingfeng was a good person.

Just like every girl who is about to get married, Yuan Muqing does not look forward to being rich and rich, only hopes that Lu Qingfeng will be sincere and frank to herself, not asking for affection, and also hopes that the two people in this marriage can respect each other like guests, which is already Yuan Muqing's extravagant hope.

Lu Qingfeng was named prime minister, although the Lu family was happy, but they did not celebrate, and now the Lu family is on the cusp of the storm, and the whole house is in order, and they dare not make any mistakes.

And Lu Qingfeng, although he was appointed prime minister, did not become busier for a while, the emperor sympathized with his approaching marriage, and pressed the matter of taking office until after he got married.
