Chapter 140 Chapter 138 Palace Banquet (I)
Listening to Leqi's report, Mu Qingya almost laughed, there are really various versions of this rumor in Kyoto!
Le Qin stared at the side when she listened: "Miss, why are you still laughing?" The people of Kyoto are talking about it, and you are still laughing! ”
Mu Qingya chuckled: "Shouldn't this be laughed?" ”
"Miss, do you know what is said outside, it is said that the emperor favored you like that some time ago so that you could go and kiss today!" Leqin almost jumped to her feet in anger on the side, those people just couldn't see Miss being favored, and they were talking bad about Miss everywhere, hum, and what did the emperor reward and favor before and even promote the lord to give Miss an identity today, and then marry her to the vicissitudes! The country is full of mountains and grasslands, and the climate is even harsher, so how can the young lady adapt to this is not in good health? Bah! Bah! What do you say, Miss won't go, Crow's Mouth! Crow's beak!
Seeing Leqin talking to herself, spitting and stomping her feet, Mu Qingya's smile was even worse, the rumors in Kyoto she knew clearly in the past few days, and she knew that there was someone behind the rumors, but these are not important, what matters is Duanmuqing's thoughts! I don't know what decision Duanmu Qing will make this time!
Mu Qingya drank tea leisurely, no matter how anxious Leqin was, until Leqin pulled Qin Yue out and said that if she went, how sad Madame would be, sad and so on, Mu Qingya put down the teacup: "Okay, don't worry, I'm afraid the palace will send someone later, and you won't let me rest for a while, if you don't have the 'spirit' to deal with those tigers and wolves, it will be blamed on your head!" ”
Le Qin was startled, and hurriedly pulled Mu Qingya to sit down: "Miss, you have a good rest, do you want to eat something, what if you are hungry and don't have the strength to deal with that group of people?" ”
Seeing Leqin's anxious appearance, Mu Qingya burst out laughing and patted her arm: "Okay, I'm not going to fight with people when I enter the palace, I don't need to eat and drink enough to go again!" ”
Here Le Qin was anxious and had no choice, Le Qi walked in: "Miss, someone from the palace has come, saying that the emperor has summoned you to invite you to the banquet!" ”
The smile settled, and Mu Qingya asked, "Who else?" ”
"All the ladies in Kyoto who are officials above the third rank have gone!"
"yes, got it!" Mu Qingya sneered, I didn't expect this Mo Junwei to really have face, this posture can catch up with the royal concubine, it seems that this palace banquet is going to be lively!
After changing her clothes, Mu Qingya sat in front of the dresser and asked Le Qin to comb her hair, Le Qin frowned: "Miss, why do you pay so much attention to dressing up today, didn't you never like to apply powder when you went to the palace before?" "Could it be that Miss fell in love with the king of the county from Canglan?
Seeing Leqin's expression, Mu Qingya knew more or less what she was thinking, and immediately felt very funny: "Okay, don't think about it anymore, there were many rumors about me in Kyoto before, and the emperor must have known it, this is a means of friendly coexistence between the two countries, that is, it really let me go, the Mu family is unwilling in their hearts, and they want to smile on their faces...... "Seeing that Leqin's eyes are a little more clear, Mu Qingya stopped talking, after this period of exercise, Leqin's mind is a lot more flexible, and this kind of thing is a little thorough!"
Le Qi solemnly groomed Mu Qingya, brought a good pearl hairpin, and looked at the more picturesque and more 'fascinated' Miss in the mirror, her heart was sour, Miss She understood, if Miss appeared in front of everyone this time, with a trace of reluctance on her face, I am afraid that those who look at Miss Unpleasant will be slandered in various ways, and the rumors in Kyoto will be even more varied tomorrow! At that time, it is possible for someone to come to the trouble of the lord with this excuse, after all, the lord is now high, and there are more people who are uneasy and kind! In case those villains succeed, and the young lady is not supported by the master behind her, then I am afraid it will be even more difficult to move an inch, which will be even more miserable!
Don't be sorry for the last hairpin, Mu Qingya got up, looked at Leqin, whose face was pale, and shook her head helplessly, it seems that she frightened this girl!
"Le Qi, prepare the carriage, enter the palace!"
"Yes, Miss!" Le Qi hurriedly went to prepare, she was not in a hurry at all for Mo Junling's courtship this time, she knew very well that the Seventh Prince valued the young lady, with the Seven Princes here, it would not be the turn of the second prince of the Canglan Country, and now the Seven Princes are not ready to hide their strength, that is, the emperor's decree is also very likely to fight, anyway, if you want your own young lady to be the princess, then you have to pay a little more price! The balance in his heart unconsciously favored Mu Qingya's position, and Le Qi didn't feel guilty at all when he thought of his master's hurried 'mess' appearance!
Half an hour later, the carriage arrived at the 'gate' of the palace, Le Qi helped Mu Qingya get out of the car, just wanted to enter the palace directly, but didn't want to meet a lot of people he hadn't seen!
"Sister Qingya!"
Mu Qingya turned her head and was very surprised when she saw someone coming: "Sister Xue!" ”
Since Qin Xue lent it to the second prince, she has never seen her again, but she didn't expect her to change so much, I think when I first saw Qin Xue, the gentle and gentle appearance of the 'girl' is vivid, and the real person is like a transparent spiritual 'jade', which makes people feel extremely comfortable at a glance, and the 'female' child dressed by the young 'woman' in front of her is very thin, and it is still difficult to hide the tiredness and paleness between her eyebrows after being dressed up in layers of rouge, and it looks a little more vicissitudes!
Qin Xue stroked her cheeks slightly, her smile was bright, but her eyes were a little more sad: "Sister Qingya was frightened by her sister's appearance, I'm afraid I don't know my sister soon!" ”
A trace of worry appeared in Mu Qingya's eyes: "Sister, what's wrong?" How could it be so badly reduced? ”
A trace of water flashed in Qin Xue's eyes, and her body trembled slightly, her whole person was like fluttering catkins, trembling and making people feel pity: "Sister...... I ......"
Mu Qingya stepped forward and grabbed her arm, and glanced at the people who came and went next to her to watch the excitement: "Sister, how about chatting while walking?" If the banquet set up by the emperor is late, it will be a great disrespectful crime! "Although the 'gate' of the palace here, it is not a place where you can cry at will, and if these tears fall, it is right and wrong!
Qin Xue also noticed the surroundings, hurriedly hid the water in her eyes, held Mu Qingya's hand and said, "It's my sister who is confused, sister, let's go!" ”
Le Qi looked at Mu Qingya with some concern, this Qin Xue's attitude towards the young lady before was extremely unfriendly, why was she so affectionate this time, this is an abnormality, there must be a demon, it shouldn't be some shady idea! Qin Jin's calculation of Mu Qingya at the beginning made Le Qi hold a grudge for a long time, but if Qin Jin died, forget it, if this Qin Xue had any bad ideas, she would definitely educate this 'female' person well!
Mu Qingya and Qin Xue walked into the palace side by side, many ladies from the family came over, the discord between the Qin family and the Mu family was in Kyoto, and the disturbance caused when Qin Jin got married was a joke for everyone for a long time, this Qin Xue couldn't raise her head in front of everyone, and married into the royal concubine for her sister who did not abide by the 'woman' way, this bad reputation will accompany her for a lifetime!
Mu Qingya glanced down at Qin Xue holding her hand, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, from the time the eyes of the people around her fell on them, she felt Qin Xue tremble slightly, the closer she got to the place where there were many people, the more Qin Xue trembled, it seems that this Qin Xue seems to care about the attitude of the people around her!
"Sister, please, you must save your sister!" Walking to a place where there were few people, Qin Xue's body was weak and she almost fell to her knees!
Mu Qingya was startled, and held Qin Xue tightly: "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”
Qin Xue clutched her stomach tightly: "Sister, I'm pregnant!" ”
Mu Qingya's pupils shrank, her heart chuckled, and a bad premonition rose up, only to hear Qin Xue continue!
"Sister, please help your sister keep this child!"
Looking at Qin Xue's flat and unfamiliar with any undulating abdomen, Mu Qingya narrowed her eyes slightly, the second prince has been on a southern tour for three months, if Qin Xue is pregnant, then she should have at least three months, but now she has no features to see, could it be that Qin Xue brought a green hat to the second prince?
"Sister, this child ......"
Qin Xue grabbed Mu Qingya's hand tightly, and her strength reached her knuckles: "This child is the second prince, on the night of the wedding, the second prince said that Qin Jin is a shame for her to win, and I married into the second prince's mansion to forgive my sister's sins, he didn't allow me to get pregnant, and even said, if I get pregnant, I will definitely beat him, sister, you have to save me, I can't lose this child!" ”
Mu Qingya held Qin Xue's pulse and took it carefully, her heart trembled, sure enough, she was already three months pregnant, and it stands to reason that she should have a slight appearance of pregnancy, looking at Qin Jin's waist, I am afraid that she has a belt tied around her waist!
"Sister, the child in your belly is the flesh and bone of the second prince, and the tiger poison does not eat children, although he says that, it should be just talking, you don't have to be so pessimistic, besides, Sister Qin Jin's matter is none of your business, how can you 'mix' it together!"
Qin Xue shook her head vigorously: "No, sister, you don't know, the second prince is not joking, he is serious, you haven't seen his expression at that time, he will definitely beat this child if he knows, I can't let my child have trouble, sister, I beg you, you help me, I will repay you as a cow and a horse in my next life!" ”
Looking at Qin Xue's crazy expression, Mu Qingya frowned, what kind of stabbing did Qin Xue suffer in the second prince, how could the pulse just now have a feeling of delirium: "Sister, don't panic, if I can help you, I will definitely spare no effort, now there are many people here, we can't talk about many things, how about we make an appointment in the Moon Viewing Tower tomorrow?" ”
"Yes, you're right! Can't say it here, can't let the second prince know! “
Looking at Qin Xue's expression like a frightened bird, Mu Qingya's heart was even more suspicious, she always felt that she had ignored something, but she couldn't remember it for a while!
