Chapter 279: It's not easy

Liu shook his head: "I don't know, the concubine asked her husband, but he didn't say it, only said that she wouldn't take the medicine given by her mother in the future." ”

"What do you mean by ......?" Mo Li couldn't tell what Liu meant, so he asked tentatively.

Jing'er was weak when she was small, and she didn't think much about the concubine, but later she had Yi'er, and she was just as sick. The concubine felt that there was something strange in this, but she couldn't say anything wrong. The concubine wanted to ask Mu Gongzi for help, but she didn't want her mother to know, so she begged the princess to explain the matter to Mu Gongzi on behalf of the concubine. Liu looked at Mo Li with a complicated expression, with helplessness and hope in his eyes.

"Sister-in-law......" Mo Li was silent for a moment before saying, "Since you came to me, you can trust me, and I have to say something in front." ”

"Princess, please speak."

"Although you and I are concubines, we are different from ordinary concubines. After all, there is a ...... in the middle, has the sister-in-law ever thought about what the eldest brother thinks? Will there be a gap with the sister-in-law? ”

Liu didn't expect Mo Li to interrupt her, but she was considering her and Murong Qi's husband and wife relationship, and couldn't help but be stunned. After a while, he showed a grateful smile and said, "Thank you for the princess for thinking about the concubine, but the concubine is reckless." ”

"It doesn't matter." Mo Li smiled lightly, "My sister-in-law can trust me and treat me as my own, so I naturally have to think about my sister-in-law." Although the princess doesn't like me, since I married into the palace, my sister-in-law has always been calm, which shows that my sister-in-law is not an unassertive person, just a big brother...... I don't have much contact and don't know much. If this has affected you husband and wife, wouldn't I have done you a disservice? Therefore, it is better for the sister-in-law to discuss with the eldest brother first. If the eldest brother also has this intention, I will tell Mu Gongzi again. ”

Liu Shi pondered for a moment and said, "Thank you for the reminder, the concubine knows what to do." ”

Mo Li smiled and said: "There is another thing, since my sister-in-law is honest with me, I will not always be a concubine in the future, but it seems to be an outsider." ”

"Concubine...... I know. Liu smiled knowingly, "Then I'll leave first, and then come back to bother." ”

When Murong Chu came back, he saw Mo Li sitting by the window in a daze, and he didn't even notice that he had come in.

"What are you thinking?" Murong Chu sat down and directly picked up the person and put it on his lap.

"You're back early." Mo Li directly found a comfortable position and leaned into his arms, "The Liu family came here in the afternoon." ”

"What did you say?"

Mo Li repeated Liu's words. Murong Chu raised his eyebrows: "Doesn't Li'er want Qingyun to take care of this matter?" ”

"That's not it, I think Murong Qi must know something, if the Liu family can get his consent, it is better than carrying people behind his back like this, maybe you can know more things from his mouth, after all, the Liu family has only been married into the palace for four years, and he must not know much."

"What does Li'er want to know?"

"There's a lot to know, but I always feel that this matter is not simple."

"It's not easy."

Mo Li looked up at Murong Chu, and always felt that his expression today was a little strange: "Where have you been?" You know you're still sick at home. ”

"I'm going to Qingyun, even if it's for people to see it, it's okay, I'm going to see a doctor."

"What did he tell you?"

Murong Chu suddenly tightened his arms, put his chin in Mo Li's neck socket, and said slowly: "After I joined the army at the age of twelve, I came back twice, and although my mother's body was weaker, it was fine. Later, he fought fiercely with Beixiang, and did not return to the capital until he was eighteen years old, but his mother had already died of illness and had already been buried in the ground. They said that they could not bear to distract me because of the tight fighting ahead, so they did not inform me about it. ”

"I sent someone to investigate, but the people around my mother were either sent or died, and there was no clue. My father was annoyed that I was too suspicious, and the family was disturbed, so I left home in a fit of anger and did not return until last year. Later, I found a doctor who had treated my mother, and he had left the capital a year before her death. According to him, his mother had no other symptoms at that time, except for frequent headaches. But the next year, there was no ......."

Murong Chu's voice was calm, but Mo Li's heart tightened, and he didn't answer what Mu Qingyun told him, but talked about his mother's death, and it was after they talked about Murong Qi's illness.

Mo Li grabbed his neck and stroked his hair one by one, she could hear the great grief hidden behind this calm: "Do you think that your mother's death has something to do with Aconitum orchid?" ”

Murong Chu nodded, and his chin knocked twice on Mo Li's neck socket, which made Mo Li feel a little painful: "Qingyun flipped through the book last night, and he found out about the efficacy of aconitum in an ancient book. The book doesn't say much, only that aconitum can be used as medicine and can also be used to make poison. He has written to his master for verification, and it is estimated that the results will be available in a few days. ”

"It's been so many years, and there's no hurry, just wait. I think Liu will come back to me again. Mo Li patted Murong Chu's back soothingly, "You let me down first, it's a little hot." ”

"Why do you remember to wear clothes with a stand-up collar today?" Murong Chu let go of her slightly and frowned slightly.

Mo Li punched him in the chest and said angrily: "I'm embarrassed to say that you made me dare not even show my neck!" ”

Murong Chu was only stunned for a moment before he understood, chuckled and took her ear and said, "It's not good for the husband." Mo Ligang was a little comforted, and then listened to him continue, "It will be a little bit lower in the future." ”

Mo Li rolled her eyes, she couldn't communicate with this guy.

Murong Chu said that he was sick and rested at home for more than half a month, and finally returned to the court. There is no other reason, the rest time is long enough, and the attitude has already shown that it is natural to go back and continue to serve the imperial court.

However, Murong Chu is much more leisurely than before, except for the court, he is more often idle in the mansion every day, at most, he occasionally goes to the military department to order a cup of tea, and he doesn't care about anything else. Mo Li couldn't help but sigh, this is about to become an old cadre who has taken a back seat.

The old cadres are leisurely on the surface, but they are also very busy in the house, and most of the time is in the study. Mo Li doesn't have so much spare work, although there is no shortage of silver in her hands, but in line with the principle of not being able to sit and eat empty, she still has to use her brains to do a good job.

The death of the emperor is less than 100 days, and the prohibition of all entertainment has an impact on the business of Quanwei Lou, but people still have to eat, so Mo Li and the shopkeeper discussed the launch of a vegan banquet, although it is vegan, but chicken, duck, fish, sea cucumber and shark fin are all available, and each dish is made of vegetarian dishes.

Now in this special period, you can't hype it, you can only rely on the guests to drive each other, and the number of times Mo Li has been to Quanwei Lou has been a little more than before.
