Chapter 54: Ascend to the Right

Early the next morning, when Zhuang Xianchen woke up, Cen Muning was dressing up in the mirror with a thin layer of incense.

He sat up, looked at the beautiful shadow, and involuntarily remembered Ziling again. Once upon a time, this was the dream of him and Ziling, waking each other up in the early morning, she poured tea for him, and he painted her eyebrows and makeup.

"Master, you're awake." Qingli's warm voice was slightly sweet: "The slave maid has chosen a set of dark robes for you, which complements the princess's positive." ”

"Hmm." Zhuang Chenchen nodded slightly, and Xin Wei led the maid who was waiting to be freshened up.

Cen Muning looked at this, Xin Wei was very decent, and there was no overstepping the norm at all.

"Your Highness, the mouthwash prepared for you, please Xinwei specially mixed it. Not only does it have mint, but it also has ice chips, which is quite refreshing. Cen Muning looked at Xinwei's soft appearance, and changed her words: "It's just Xinwei, haven't you been training at Concubine Zhen's mother's house before?" How can you recognize Aunt Qin next to the Queen Mother? ”

"Back to the Princess." Xinwei knew what happened yesterday, she would definitely ask, and she had already thought of her words. "Actually, Aunt Qin's mother's family and the slave maid are all in the same place. When the slave maid was young, before she was favored by Concubine Meng, she was neighbors with Aunt Qin's family. I remember that when Aunt Qin was sent to the palace as a maid, the slave maid also sent her out of the village with her mother. ”

"I see." Cen Muning smiled slightly: "How old were you at that time?" ”

"I guess I'm seven or eight years old." Xin Wei smiled lightly.

Zhuang Chenchen washed up, and also listened to such a conversation, but did not make a sound.

Qingli deliberately opened Xinwei to change clothes for His Royal Highness. "Princess, the robe you chose for Your Highness is good-looking, but this button is a little difficult to handle. Take a look. ”

Cen Muning got up with Bingling's hand and walked over quickly. "Let me see."

She carefully buttoned his shirt with ten slender fingers. "The buttons that have just been coiled are a little tight, so I need a little bit of strength."

The smile on Qing Li's face was much deeper, but the afterglow of Xinwei at the end of his eyes was full of hostility.

The implication is that changing clothes for Her Royal Highness is something that only the princess can do, and she is not worthy of it at all.

Xin Wei also saw that her eyebrows were high, so she said, "The slave and maid will go and prepare breakfast for the master and the princess to enjoy." ”

Zhuang Chenchen suddenly held Cen Muning's hand: "Enter the palace with this king." ”

"Yes." Cen Muning was not afraid at all.

It's just that as soon as he entered the palace, Zhuang Chenchen was urgently recruited by the emperor's people to go to the imperial study.

Her carriage was stopped on the road near the Imperial Garden.

Lifting the curtain, Cen Muning was a little surprised. "It turned out to be the Prime Minister."

"Hmph." Cen Yun glanced at her coldly unhappily: "Princess Ruiming really forgot her roots, and she saw that the old man was so estranged." Don't forget, where you're from. If it weren't for the old man asking the Queen Mother for his grace, would you be where you are today? ”

"Thank you for mentioning it." Cen Mu said with a smile: "Xiangye's whip has sobered up this princess." In fact, you don't need to work this princess, you should find out where Mu Chuan's injury came from that day. Saying that I poisoned your favorite young son and that I eat people is such a ridiculous reason, you will believe the appearance of a country. ”

She only felt ridiculous, and at the same time sentimental. His mother gave him all his life, but he was good, he didn't even want to take back his mother's bones, and he said that he would continue the string, which was ruthless at all.

"Even if the events of the day are to blame you. Isn't it enough that Guo is also dead now? Cen Yun had a cold face and looked unrelenting: "Could it be that you still want the old man to kneel down for you in public and beg for your forgiveness?" ”

"Guo is dead?" Cen Muning was quite surprised, these days, she asked Bingling to send a letterhead to the Prime Minister's Mansion to the fourth aunt's wife. The fourth aunt and wife only said that everything was fine in the house, but did not mention the matter of the Guo family.

"You died the night before you got married." Cen Yun's eyes stared at her cautiously, as if he wanted to find the truth from her eyes. "Could it be that it wasn't Princess Ruiming's hand?"

"I wish she had lived longer, suffered more, and let her die...... How can it be so cheap. Cen Muning gritted her teeth and said: "She treats me badly, so you can read it for the sake of her elders and look down on it." But she murdered my dearest relatives and hurt my brother and brother, and this breath must not be swallowed lightly. ”

Without waiting for Cen Yun to speak, Cen Mu smiled and said, "That's it, in fact, it has nothing to do with me." In the eyes of Xiangye, my mother and I have long ceased to be a family. And why do you have to take all these troublesome things on me? By the way, it's not too early, I still have to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye, so I won't delay the Prime Minister to enter the court to share the emperor's worries. ”

Cen Muning waved his hand, and Qingli ordered people to continue walking.

"Wait." Cen Yun had no intention of leaving.

Cen Muling was impatient: "What else does Xiangye have to say, it's better to wait for one day to come to the palace as a guest, it's not too late to repeat." But if you delay the princess to greet the Queen Mother, I'm afraid you can't afford to bear it. ”

"Don't scare the old man with these high-sounding words." Cen Yun stiffened his face: "When the old man was playing official with people, you were still in your mother's belly!" ”

Cen Mu Ning's face was cold, and her tone was full of dissatisfaction: "The most wrong thing about my mother is to become your woman." She has spent her whole life in the sorrow you bring. What else do you need to tell me now? ”

"Give up tracking down the events of the year, and the old man welcomes your mother to bury the ancestral grave of the Cen family." Cen Yun felt that this was already the biggest concession.

He would say this, Cen Muning was indeed quite surprised.

This is one of her wishes, and the key to this wish is to ask this Xiangguo father to nod.

She thought that she would have to find a way to achieve her wish, but she didn't expect him to let go so easily.

"How?" Cen Yun saw that she was silent, and asked again.

"Very good." Cen Muning was overjoyed: "This can be regarded as an explanation to the poor mother." But there may be no pie-in-the-sky good thing in this world. I don't know what conditions Xiangye wants me to use in exchange? ”

"From now on, you can't look into the events of the past." Cen Yun's tone was cold, and he said word by word extremely hard. "The old man and your grievances are also clear, and the two are not involved. Outside, you are still the daughter of the dignified Prime Minister's house. ”

Cen Muning's tears were about to fall out. "From beginning to end, you don't believe that your mother is innocent. Even if Guo is dead, you still treat me like a wild seed. In this case, why do I want to be rare and have a daughter? I can live because of my own ability. And you, the most regrettable thing is that you didn't kill me that day! ”

"You ......" Cen Yun trembled angrily: "Even if you are a wild seed, the old man has raised you for so many years and treats you as your own daughter." Your piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, your needlework and female red, which one of them was not learned in the old man's mansion. What kind of thing didn't you learn with the old man's money? If you don't listen to the old man, you are disobedient and unfilial, and you are not afraid of thunder and thunder! ”

"I saved your Mu Chuan, isn't it enough?" Cen Mu Ning had a cold face: "If you have to settle this account with me, then I will almost die in your hands, is it not enough?" Let me tell you, my mother is also a very high-spirited woman, you frame her like this, suspect her, and let her down, even if you use a sedan chair to bring her ashes back to your so-called ancestral grave, she will not be rare. Qingli, let's go. ”

"Cen Muning, you dare!" Cen Yun saw that he couldn't stop him, so he stood in front of the carriage alone. "If you will disobey your father's will, thou shalt tread over him with the hoofs of your horse."

If it weren't for the palace, Cen Muning really wanted to step over him.

Anyway, in his eyes, she was a goddamn wild seed. For such a ruthless person, what kind of affection do you have to say.

But she was in the palace, and if she did, she would be put to death. It's better not to do things that don't outweigh the losses.

"Qingli, please leave Cen Xiang." Cen Muning said in a light tone.

"Yes, Princess." Qingli jumped out of the carriage and walked in front of Cen Yun in three or two steps: "Offended, Xiangye." ”

While speaking, she wrapped the light yarn draped on her body and tied Cen Yun. Finally, the two ends of the ribbon were handed to the guards on the side. "When the princess is far away, I will loosen the tie to Xiangye."

"Cen Muning, have you eaten the bear's heart leopard gall?" Cen Yun was furious, looking like he wanted to eat people. "If you dare to meet the Queen Mother, you don't want your own life, but you have to take the entire Cen Mansion. Do you want your mother to never look away? If you dare to take a step further, the old man will never nod and let your mother be buried in the ancestral grave, you think clearly! ”

Cen Muning stopped Qingli and was stunned for a long time before saying, "My mother will never be rare in your charity." ”

"Does it matter how a person dies when he is dead?" Cen Yun asked angrily: "Even if you find out thoroughly, can you resurrect her?" Rest the matter and settle the people, and the most important thing is to settle in the ground, do you understand? You are shameless yourself, do you want to let your mother's ugly deeds be made public? ”

When was it, Cen Muning also thought about giving up. She was really worried, and what they said was true. She's not the daughter of her mother and father, she's just a wild seed with no honorable identity. If she continues to investigate it regardless of this, she will find out all the things that her mother does not want people to know, and it is likely that her mother will be spurned......

"Father." Cen Muning looked back from the carriage window and watched Cen Yun, who was wrapped into a zongzi, struggling in embarrassment. "Maybe if you keep tracking, the ending will be embarrassing. But in this world, I am the only one who feels sorry for my mother, if I can't stand up for her and clear her grievances, who else can give her justice? She is always the wife you loved, how can you bear it? And the fame, power, and face that you value are far less important to me than the truth. ”

"You madman!" Cen Yun gritted his teeth and said, "You are really right to marry King Ruiming!" You're right! ”

One kills people without blinking, and the other goes crazy and doesn't want to die, so it seems that it is indeed very right.

Cen Mu Ning smiled and lowered the curtain of the car, and didn't look at Cen Yun again: "Qingli, let's go." ”
