Chapter 39 The Queen Mother is invited
The peony banquet was decent, and the process was relatively "harmonious", but fortunately there was no "fight".
After the banquet, Mu Qingwan and Mrs. Mu were ready to go home, but before they left the palace, a little eunuch came to Mu Qingwan with the queen mother's waist card.
"Miss Mu Qi, the Queen Mother is invited, let's go."
The little eunuch didn't say much else, and after finding someone in a hurry, he explained his intention concisely, and then gestured to Mu Qingwan to go with him.
Mrs. Mu and Mu Qingwan both wondered in their hearts, how could the Queen Mother find Mu Qingwan so well?
"Mother, you wait for me for a while, I'll come out later."
Mrs. Mu patted Mu Qingwan's hand and signaled her to pay attention to proportion, and Mu Qingwan nodded knowingly.
The mother and daughter exchanged glances, and Mu Qingwan left with the little eunuch with auspiciousness.
"Father-in-law, Qingwan This is the first time I have seen the Queen Mother, and I hope that my father-in-law will give me some advice."
Mu Qingwan followed behind the little eunuch, speaking quietly and respectfully, and at the same time, Ji Xiang stepped forward quickly, and quietly stuffed the little eunuch with a deflated purse.
The little eunuch twisted it with his hand, and if nothing else, there was a silver ticket inside, which was much more generous than silver. After getting a considerable income, the little eunuch was happy, and he couldn't help but say a few more words.
"It's nothing, but it's just because Concubine Yin mentioned it, saying that she misses her sisters, and the Queen Mother is sympathetic to Concubine Yin and specially asked someone to take you over to talk. It's not a big deal, just remember what to say and what not to say. ”
The little eunuch looked like an experienced old man, and gave Mu Qingwan guidance.
"Thank you father-in-law for your advice."
Mu Qingwan replied politely, such an attitude made the little eunuch very useful.
Was it Mu Qingyin? Mu Qingwan thought in her heart, Mu Qingyin turned around to find herself, what is the so-called matter? Mu Qingwan didn't forget the banquet where Xiao An's family also moved, but Mu Qingyin didn't look for her biological mother, but instead found her cousin, if she said that there was no purpose, Mu Qingwan would not believe it.
What Mu Qingwan could think of, Mu Qingyin's purpose for finding her past was nothing more than that. However, Mu Qingwan could not agree to these conditions. When the time comes, act on the opportunity.
The Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, when the palace people enter and exit, they are very regular, and no one dares to make loud noises.
Mu Qingwan followed behind the little eunuch and entered the main hall of Cining Palace. In the hall at this time, the Queen Mother sat high at the top, and Mu Qingyin sat at the bottom of the Queen Mother, and the two were talking.
"Courtier, Mu Qingwan, knock on the Queen Mother, Chitose Chitose, Chitose Chitose."
Mu Qingwan stepped forward and bowed to the Queen Mother, but she didn't wait for the other party to call her up.
Mu Qingwan felt that the Queen Mother looked at her body a few times, and only after a while did she open her mouth to let herself get up. Mu Qingwan didn't dare to make her own assertions, so she could only maintain her previous posture with difficulty.
"Alright, get up."
The Queen Mother finally spoke, and Mu Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief, although she practiced martial arts on weekdays, squatting and walking was a basic skill, but after a long time, it would be troublesome.
Dismounted? What is the intention of the Queen Mother?
"Empress Dowager Xie."
Mu Qingwan thanked him, got up, and bowed his head respectfully.
"Raise your head and let the mourners see."
Mu Qingwan frowned slightly, and then slowly raised her head without any expression, but her eyes looked down, and she didn't look directly at the Queen Mother.
"Sure enough, he looks good, but it's not like your mother."
The Queen Mother mentioned such a sentence, but Mu Qingwan was vigilant, how could she mention Mrs. Mu well? Not only the Queen Mother, Mu Qingwan remembered that Emperor Jianye also mentioned Mrs. Mu a few times, could it be that there was something inside in the middle? Mu Qingwan made up her mind that after leaving the palace, she would definitely send someone to investigate.
"This good look, with a little twelve is enough. Well, the mourning family is old, and I'm tired of talking about it for a while. Yin Concubine, you sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, go talk about it. ”
After the Queen Mother said this, she was supported by the old woman beside her and got up to leave.
At this time, there were only two people left in the hall, Mu Qingwan and Mu Qingyin.
"Sister don't worry, it's just that I live in the palace and haven't seen my relatives for a long time. Today is the peony banquet, but unfortunately my sister is not qualified to participate, and I am upset, so I mentioned a few more words to the queen mother. Who knew that the Queen Mother and her old man would take it true and send someone to find you. It's rare to have such almost, the two of us sisters have a good talk. ”
mentioned that she was not able to participate in the peony banquet, Mu Qingyin's eyes were lonely and helpless. And when the Queen Mother is mentioned, it is an intimacy between the juniors and the elders.
Mu Qingwan's eyes flashed slightly, the palace is really not a place for people to stay, and her eldest sister is now more successful than she thought.
Mu Qingwan remembered the scene when she saw Mu Qingyin for the first time, dressed in white, holy and elegant, fluttering, ethereal, Mu Qingyin's indifference and otherworldly temperament at that time made Mu Qingwan's eyes shine.
It's a pity that a few years have passed, Mu Qingyin has been contaminated by the environment of the palace, and the fireworks on her body are thick, and before she knows it, she has already become an ordinary woman who has worked hard to calculate, Mu Qingwan can't help but sigh.
"I haven't seen her for a long time, Qingwan naturally misses it very much, and Qingwan is also very happy to see her big sister at this time. It's just that my sister may not know, my aunt also attended the banquet, but unfortunately she didn't come. ”
Mu Qingwan saw people talking about people, and talking nonsense when she saw them, but the other party didn't take the initiative to make a move, and Mu Qingwan also started Tai Chi.
When Xiao An's was mentioned, Mu Qingyin's face was uncomfortable for a moment, but it was quickly hidden.
Mu Qingyin crossed over her biological mother and found her cousin, no matter what she said, it was unreasonable to do so, if it was known, she would definitely be made fun of.
"I really didn't know that my mother was here too, it's a pity."
Mu Qingyin sighed, with a disappointed expression in her tone.
"The eldest sister doesn't have to blame herself, presumably the eldest aunt also understands the eldest sister's distress."
"Hehe, yes."
Mu Qingyin picked up the wine glass, drank tea, and suppressed the fluctuating mind.
"This time, my sister came to find my sister, and I have one more thing to ask my sister for."
If you continue to chat, the atmosphere is really dull and awkward, after all, the relationship between the two is not very close. Mu Qingyin simply stopped wasting time and went straight to the topic.
"When my sister said this, it really hurt my sister. My sister is in need, and it is naturally my duty to be a sister. However, my sister's current ability, I'm afraid that the place where she can help her sister is really limited. ”
Mu Qingwan directly killed the topic, and didn't want to continue playing with Mu Qingyin.
"Sister, don't say that, it's just a matter of my sister's words. My sister has been in the palace for many years, when I can't help myself, if I am alone, it is just that, but I have a little prince, my sister is a mother, and naturally I want to plan for him, Anping Houfu is the mother of the little prince, naturally all the glory, presumably the second uncle can also understand. ”
