Seeing that she had been silent, Duan thought that he had touched her heart, and patted the back of her hand: "Xi'er, sister-in-law is just talking to you, you don't have to think so much." ”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, my husband is good to me." Mo Li grinned, she didn't want the Duan clan to worry about herself anymore.

"Yes, everyone can see that General Murong is good to Xi'er." Duan stroked the back of her hand with relief in his eyes.

Someone outside the door reported that Master Mo had returned home, and asked the young lady to go to the study to talk about it.

Duan and Mo Li went out of the courtyard together, Mo Li went to the study, Duan went to order his subordinates to prepare lunch, the three brothers and sisters haven't been together for a long time, it's rare to be here today, and they have to have a lively meal.

In the study, Mo Jinyu was also there, Mo Jinhua had already changed into a regular obedience screen and turned out, Mo Li entered the room and looked him up and down, and said as if dissatisfied: "I originally wanted to see my brother wearing an official uniform, but it turned out to be too late." ”

"They are all people who have become relatives, and they are so naughty." Mo Jinhua pointed at her and said angrily.

Mo Li stuck out her tongue with crooked eyebrows, and then asked, "I heard my sister-in-law say that my brother is very busy, why did he come back so early today?" ”

"You two finally went home once, no matter how busy I am, I have to come back to have a meal with you!" Mo Jinhua sat down at the table.

Mo Jinyu hurriedly got up and poured a cup of tea: "Brother has worked hard, use a cup of tea quickly." ”

As he spoke, he poured another cup and handed it to Mo Li.

Mo Li took a sip of the cup and said, "It seems that it was right to let Jin Yu go to the barracks at the beginning, how long has it been, and he is much more sensible than before." ”

"Sister, don't always say that I'm still like a child. Now your brother is also a lieutenant no matter how I say it. Mo Jinyu pursed his lips.

"That being said, don't be complacent." Mo Jinhua's face straightened, and Mo Jinyu hurriedly said yes. For this brother, he has always been very respectful.

Mo Li remembered what Murong Chu told her that day, and pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, have there been a lot of cases in Dali Temple recently?" ”

"Well, the change of the sun and the moon will naturally take some time." Mo Jinhua pondered for a moment and then asked, "What does Xi'er want to say to me?" ”

Mo Li said Murong Chu's words that day, but he didn't avoid Mo Jinyu, he grew up, and he should know some things in the court.

Mo Jinhua smiled and said: "It's rare that my brother-in-law is still thinking about me, go back and tell him that I have my own measure, so that he can rest assured." ”

Talking to smart people is to save time and effort, and Mo Jinhua is this kind of smart person.

After lunch, Mo Jinyu returned to the barracks, and Mo Li said goodbye and returned to the palace.

In the following days, Mo Li would occasionally take Murong Wan to some parties, and the noblewomen in the capital gradually became familiar with this young lady in the Bac Ninh Palace, and from time to time someone would ask Mo Li for some news about Murong Wan. Some have even shown their willingness to marry the Bac Ninh royal palace.

However, Aunt Zhao said that this is not in a hurry, after all, it is a matter of Murong Wan's life, and she will only arrive next year, so it is good to have a choice if she sees a few more.

In this regard, Mo Li did not express an opinion, she just created more opportunities for Murong Wan, as for who she marries in the future, as long as she and Aunt Zhao are willing.

Before you know it, it's June, and the weather is starting to get hot. In the past few days, Mo Li has been busy researching new ice drinks and has not gone out, and he doesn't want the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion to send a post. It was not Sun Xiaoxue who invited her this time, but Mrs. Sun.

The grandmother sent by the old lady said that she had something urgent to discuss with her, and asked her to take time to go to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion as soon as possible. This is the first time that Mrs. Sun has personally posted to her, and she said that there is an urgent matter, so she received the post in the morning, and Mo Li was already sitting in the flower hall in the courtyard of Mrs. Sun in the afternoon.

Sun Xiaoxue was not present, there were only Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Qingyuan Hou in the flower hall, and their faces were not very good, especially Mrs. Qingyuan Hou frowned.

"Old lady, Mrs. Hou, is something wrong?" Mo Li asked after waiting for Mrs. Qingyuan Hou to wave her subordinates back.

Mrs. Qingyuan Hou looked at Mrs. Sun, and saw that the old lady nodded silently, before she said, "Mrs. Murong, I invite you here today because I want to discuss something with you." Please also ask Mrs. Murong not to blame us for being abrupt. ”

"It's good for Mrs. Hou to call me by name, the old lady and Mrs. Hou have always loved me, smiled and befriended me. If you have anything to say, you can directly order, and there is no reason for being abrupt or not. Mo Li realized that something might have happened, and asked after a little hesitation, "Is something wrong?" ”

"Since Jinxi said so, I'm not welcome." Mrs. Qingyuan Hou reluctantly pulled out a flash smile, "Have you ever heard that Jinxi is going to be drafted?" ”

Mo Li was a little dazed: "Draft? Is the emperor going to choose a concubine? "She really hasn't heard of this, and besides, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with her whether the emperor chooses a concubine or not. However, she immediately realized something, and asked eagerly, "Is there a qualified girl in the house?" ”

Mrs. Qingyuan Hou nodded: "All the concubines of the six-rank officials' families who have reached the age of fourteen, as long as they are not allowed to match, they must participate, and the eight girls and Xiao Jiu in the fourth room of our Qingyuan Hou are among them." However, the eighth girl has been weak since she was a child, and as long as she is a saint, she doesn't need to run for election. It's just this little nine......"

"Does Xiaoxiao have to go?" Mo Li's heart tensed involuntarily. As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, everyone understands this truth, Sun Xiaoxue is only fourteen years old now, and she is a pure nature, if she is elected to the palace, she must not be abused to the point that there is not even scum left.

The harem has always been closely related to the court, Sun Xiaoxue is the concubine of the Marquis of Qingyuan, and her appearance and conduct are good, so the possibility of being selected is very great.

Old Madam Sun sighed and said, "The matter about the draft hasn't been finalized yet, but we just listened to some letters first." So...... If you don't want Xue'er to enter the palace, you have to set a family affair for her immediately, and if you wait until the holy decree is issued, I'm afraid it will be too late. ”

Mo Li bit her lip: "Old lady, does Mrs. Hou have a suitable candidate?" ”

Mrs. Qingyuan Hou glanced at Mrs. Sun again, and then said: "We got the letter yesterday evening, and the whole family discussed it, and Xue'er herself was unwilling to enter the palace no matter what. We all think she's ...... Not suitable for entering the palace. ”

After a pause, Mrs. Marquis of Qingyuan continued: "I heard Han'er say a few days ago that Jinxi's younger brother is also on an errand in the barracks, and he is the same age as Xue'er. I don't know ......."

Mo Li was overjoyed when she heard this, but she said seriously on her face: "Don't hide it from the old lady and Mrs. Hou, my sister-in-law likes to smile very much, and she has long wanted to marry the Hou Mansion." It's just that the lintel of my Mo family is low, and Jin Yu is only a small lieutenant now, so I'm afraid of humiliation and laughing. ”

"That's why I never dared to mention it. I just want to wait for Jin Yu to make a name for himself in the barracks in two years before making plans. ”
