Chapter 9: Sycophants

Du Xuanxuan's family background is not prominent, but her family has been practicing medicine for generations, especially good at acupuncture and massage.

Serving the princess on weekdays, she did hear some of them, such as Mu Jiaren was recommended by Han Yunqian and lived in Qingfeng Garden, which was closest to the prince's bedroom, but she was not interested in participating in these rights and wrongs, Meng Tingyu was not a good kind at first glance, but she felt that Mu Jiaren was closer.

Du Xuanxuan shook her head: "I don't know." ”

Gu Jie chuckled: "Are you eating other people's soft mouths?" ”

Du Xuanxuan sat aside as if she hadn't heard it, Meng Tingyu thought about it and decided to go to Liangju Courtyard to see what was going on.

Mu Jiaren changed into the men's clothes of the soldiers today, and she was more proficient in doing things, she tied her hair up with a purple headband, looking heroic and quite capable.

After the stables were cleaned, she distributed vegetables and chatted with the soldiers.

"Isn't there a lot of courtyards in the palace? Are you just in the outer court? ”

The soldiers didn't think much about it, and replied truthfully: "There are indeed a lot of courtyards in the palace, we were in the outer courtyard when we were in the palace, and His Royal Highness the Prince is not in the palace these days, so be more leisurely, and when His Royal Highness comes back, he will be very busy." ”

"Busy? Why? Isn't His Royal Highness the Prince of the World delicate and has been recuperating all the time? What else is there to do? "Mu Jiaren is a little strange, this seems to be different from the rumors outside.

The soldiers looked at each other and smiled: "When Your Highness comes back, you will understand." ”

Suddenly, Mu Jiaren felt a damp heat in her neck, and when she turned around, she saw a black foal beside her, smelling her curiously.

Mu Jiaren happily stretched out her hand, the pony's mane and tail were grayish-white, her body was dark and shiny, and her round eyes were very smart.

"This is Moon Shadow, ten months old." Xue Qi pointed to the radish in the basket next to her and continued, "She also likes to eat turnips. ”

Mu Jiaren picked up the radish and gave it to her, she only took two bites, and then trotted around Mu Jia, as if she was very curious.

"You've had horses before?"

The horses of the palace are not easy to get close to, and Mu Jiaren has just come to be able to get along with the war horses in harmony, which seems incredible to him.

Mu Jiaren nodded: "I have raised, my mother likes horses very much, and when I was a child, my family was poor, and I couldn't afford or use such a good horse." ”

When I was a child, I always heard my mother say how smart horses are, especially war horses, they are partners whose owners can trust their lives.

Later, in the Tianya Pavilion on the clouds, she also took care of the sect's horses.

Now, I finally got my wish and saw the war horse that my mother said.

Mu Jiaren looked at the beautiful moon shadow in front of her and sighed silently, when will she have a horse of her own?

When these things are dealt with, she will build a stable behind the tavern she opens, and live a life of poetry and wine.

Moon Shadow seemed to be very interested in Mu Jiaren, and kept surrounding her, occasionally putting her arm on her head, and after the other horses were brought into the stable, Xue Qi asked Mu Jiaren to bring Moon Shadow in with her mother.

At this time, Meng Tingyu also took the ladies to Liangju Courtyard, and Xue Qi stepped forward to stop him, but who knew that he couldn't stop it at all.

"Mu Jia can come here, why can't we?" Chu Ruoshan's words were unceremoniously, as a maid, she entered the mansion earlier than several others, but a few days ago she received an errand to go out to help the palace buy, and when she came back, she heard Meng Tingyu talking about Mu Jiaren, and she was very repulsed by Mu Jiaren.

"I've heard that generals are the most fair, you can't let her in and shut us out."

Meng Tingyu said as she walked inside, Xue Qi said that they could only keep backing down.

Mu Jia said goodbye to Moon Shadow through the fence inside, and when she stretched out her hand a little, Moon Shadow came over and rubbed her palm with her head.

Just rubbed it a few times, it suddenly took a few steps back, and the other war horses in the stable were also alert, Mu Jiaren turned his head and frowned, Meng Tingyu The smell of spices on their bodies was too strong, which made the war horses very uncomfortable.

"This is not the place where the ladies come from." Mu Jiaren looked at them with radish raised eyebrows.

Meng Tingyu pretended to be elegant, endured the smell of the stable, and stepped forward with her skirt.

"Be careful! Mouse! Mu Jiaren pointed to the ground and shouted, so frightened that several people screamed in shock, and Meng Tingyu was also frightened, but she didn't panic, just looked at Mu Jiaren with a bad smile on her face.

Then she strode forward, snatched the radish from Mu Jiaren's hand, and handed it directly to the horse next to her, wanting to prove that she could too.

Unexpectedly, the horses in the fence didn't react, and the Mu family sighed: "Miss Meng, this is the work done by the subordinates." ”

"Miss Mu can be appreciated by the princess for doing these jobs, so we naturally have to learn from you."

Seeing that the horse in front of her had no reaction, Meng Tingyu went straight inside, Mu Jiaren remembered that Xue Qi had said that inside was the fire of the prince, and she was very sensitive to smells, and she was more than lucky when she went in.

"I'd advise you not to go in."

"Would you be so kind?" Meng Tingyu glared at Mu Jiaren and called a woman to go in with her.

Xue Qi and the soldiers were busy taking the other women out, and they didn't have time to take care of Meng Tingyu, Mu Jiaren stood outside and watched the two approach the fence of the fire, and at this time, the fire jumped up directly, hissing to warn them.

In an instant, Meng Tingyu was directly frightened, and Mu Jiaren stepped forward to push the two away, raising her hand to calm the flames.

"Don't be angry, they didn't mean to."

Agni Huo had a bad temper, but he was very smart, and he understood Mu Jiaren's words, so he used his front hooves to plow the ground and snorted a few times.

Mu Jiaren picked up the radish in the trough and handed it over, but who knew that the fire didn't pay attention to it at all.

This guy still holds a grudge, I don't know if this horse has a bad temper, will His Royal Highness the Prince be so cautious?

Xue Qi and the others heard the movement inside and hurriedly came over to check, but at this time, Meng Tingyu had already fainted, and Zhou Fei'er on the side hugged her and cried very aggrieved.

Mu Jiaren looked dazed, and after turning around, she actually started to "sing".

The matter was quickly handed over to the princess to deal with, Meng Tingyu was still unconscious when she was sent back to the room, the princess was sitting in the hall, and Mu Jiaren and the other women were standing outside the door.

Princess Rongjin was wearing a blue brocade robe with gold thread patterns, which was elegant and luxurious, with a string of topaz beads hanging around her neck and hanging down on her chest, looking like she was in her early thirties, her eyes were indifferent but full of arrogance.

After the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he came out and replied: "Qi Yu Niangniang, Miss Meng is fine, but she has a bruise on her arm when she falls, and she can be healed after a few days of rest." ”

"Okay, you go down."

The maid took the doctor down, and the princess looked at Mu Jia and Zhou Fei'er.

"Tell me what's going on."

When Mu Jiaren was about to speak, the sick voice of the woman Meng Tingyu came from inside the screen: "Is the princess Niangniang here?" ”

Then the maid helped Meng Tingyu out, Mu Jiaren was very emotional, how did she manage to make herself so weak and pale in just a quarter of an hour?
