Chapter 323: Urgently summoned to the palace
Mo Li pursed her lips and smiled: "I originally wanted to tell my mother tomorrow when I came to the house to pay New Year's greetings." ”
"Hmph, it's been more than three months before I thought about telling this palace." The eldest princess glanced at her and said dissatisfied.
Mo Li knew that the eldest princess was not really angry with her, so she smiled and said, "It's not that it was not easy to publicize three months ago." ”
"Hongu is your stepmother." The eldest princess snorted coldly again.
Mo Li hurriedly flattered: "Yes, yes, yes, Xi'er knows that she is wrong, and she will tell her mother immediately next time." ”
The eldest princess nodded her forehead: "You Nizi is so shameless, this one hasn't been born yet, so you're thinking about the next one?" ”
"Mother makes fun of Xi'er." Mo Li's face turned red, and she pouted and swayed, "Mother doesn't know, I was uncomfortable at the beginning, I was uncomfortable at the beginning, I vomited what I ate, and I took medicine." ”
"Although this palace has never given birth, it also knows that it is not easy for a woman to conceive a child. Fortunately, you have a husband who loves you. The eldest princess patted the back of Mo Li's hand, with a hint of melancholy in her tone.
Mo Li knew that not giving birth to a son and a half daughter for General Yun was the biggest regret in her life, so she shook her hand and said, "It's the same with Mother Youxi'er." When the child is born, Xi'er will often take him to visit his mother. ”
"I'll make Hongu happy." The eldest princess sneered, "But this palace still likes to hear this." ”
The speed of the sedan chair is much faster than walking, but the time of a pillar of incense will reach the harem.
Mo Li helped the eldest princess into the main hall, and the women who had already stood according to their grades saluted one after another.
The eldest princess patted her hand on the crook of her arm, and said softly, "Salute for a while, pay attention to yourself." ”
"Yes, Mother." Mo Li sent the eldest princess to the front of the royal ladder and blessed her body. He took a few steps back and walked towards the Marquis of Qingyuan and the old lady in the crowd.
Mo Jinyu and Sun Xiaoxue got married, and it is a well-known thing in the capital that the two families have become in-laws, and it is normal to be kind. The two are elders again, and Mo Li naturally wants to go over to see him.
Just as she was about to give a salute, Mrs. Qingyuan Hou held her arm: "It's all my own family, so I don't need these false courtesies." ”
Before the words fell, I only heard a sharp voice say: "The queen mother has arrived, the queen mother has arrived!" ”
Subsequently, the queen mother and the queen slowly entered the hall surrounded by the concubines, the queen mother was in the center, and the queen sat on the phoenix chair.
All the women gave great gifts and called for a thousand years old.
"Flat!"
The Empress Dowager gave an order, everyone got up one after another, Mo Li felt that her arm was being helped, and when she turned her head, she saw Mrs. Qingyuan Marquis smiling and whispering, "Be careful." ”
Mo Li's face was slightly red: "Thank you, madam." ”
The Empress Dowager on the royal stairs began to speak, and Mo Li did not pay much attention to it, but turned her gaze to Murong Wan behind the Empress. It's been almost a month since the last time they met, and Murong Wan's complexion is much better, wearing a peach-colored concubine dress, dignified but delicate.
After the morning greeting, there was a palace banquet, and although the atmosphere was no longer as solemn as before, it was also restrained.
Nearly halfway through the palace banquet, a palace maid came to Mo Li's side and saluted: "Mrs. Murong, Murong Xiurong invites you to the side hall for a while." ”
Mo Li followed the little palace maid to the side hall and saw Murong Wan blessing and giving a salute.
Murong Wan stepped forward to support her and sent all the palace people out, leaving only Qiu Yu and Ruoping to wait on the side.
Mo Li frowned and said, "Shouldn't you serve by the queen's side at this time?" ”
Murong Wan smiled slightly: "It was the eldest princess who said that I would come and talk to the princess." Wan'er, congratulations to the princess! ”
"Huh!? You got it? Mo Li raised an eyebrow.
Murong Wan nodded: "I heard what Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said just now, Her Royal Highness said that there are many people in the hall, and the princess should not stay for a long time." ”
"That's right, after sitting for so long, my waist is a little sore." Mo Li found a comfortable position to sit on the soft chair, and just now he could only sit upright in the main hall, which was really boring and tiring.
He looked at Murong Wan and asked, "How are you doing?" ”
"It's been fine for a long time." Murong Wan picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Recently, the emperor's government affairs are not as busy as before, but he often comes to Qiwen Palace, and he also rewarded a good warm jade chessboard a year ago. The emperor said that the weather was cold, and it was appropriate to use this chessboard to play chess. ”
"It seems that the emperor still really loves you. There can be ...... That one? ”
Although Mo Li lowered her voice, Murong Wan still glanced at Ruoping and Qiu Yu with a red eye, and saw that the two of them looked as usual, as if they hadn't heard, so she shook her head slightly.
The corners of Mo Li's mouth twitched, this emperor is really ...... It's hard to describe.
"Those two have settled down a lot, especially Shen Meiren, who haven't troubled me again." Murong Wan leaned into Mo Li's ear and whispered.
Mo Li nodded slightly: "That's good, you can live comfortably, and you don't have to think too much about anything else." ”
Although there were no outsiders in the side hall, after all, Mo Li came to meet Murong Wan in full view of everyone, and after a long time, it would cause people to gossip, and after the two finished saying a few important words, Mo Li got up and said goodbye.
More than an hour later, at the end of the palace feast, snowflakes drifted in the sky. Under the envious gaze of all the women, Mo Li rubbed the eldest princess's sedan chair and walked out of the palace again.
Outside the palace gate, Murong Chu saw the eldest princess coming out of the sedan chair, stepped forward to greet her, and bowed down to greet him. The sedan curtain was lifted, and the eldest princess said with a smile: "The palace has brought your lady back intact." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness the eldest princess." Murong Chu arched his hand again and stretched out his hand to help Mo Li down.
The eldest princess bowed slightly: "Go back and take good care of Xi'er, don't treat the grandson of the palace." You don't have to go to the palace tomorrow, let Xi'er have a good rest. ”
"Yes, the last general commands." Murong Chu replied seriously, as if she was in the military camp back then, which made the eldest princess can't help but laugh, and pointed: "You ......, hurry up and take your daughter-in-law back." ”
The two said goodbye to the eldest princess, and Murong Chu took Mo Li's hand and returned to his carriage very naturally, and went home.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, when it was time to return to his parents' house, Murong Chu naturally wanted to accompany Mo Li back. Mo Jinhua did not return to Beijing because of unfinished official business, but Hua Jinyu was at home, and welcomed the husband and wife into the mansion with his sister-in-law Duan.
After greeting each other and distributing benefits, they had just taken their seats in the front hall, and Eleven hurriedly came in and arched his hand to everyone, and whispered a few words in Murong Chu's ear.
Murong Chu only frowned slightly, and his expression returned to normal and said, "Your Majesty summoned me to enter the palace immediately." ”
"Yesterday, Wan'er also said that the emperor has not been busy with government affairs recently, why is he in such a hurry to summon you to the palace today?" Mo Li raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Don't worry, I'll go back as soon as I go, you wait for me here." Murong Chu hooked the corners of his lips and gave Mo Li a reassuring look.
Mo Li nodded: "You go, remember to send someone back to inform you if you have anything." ”
