Chapter 193: Mission
In the Rui Wang's Mansion, Aunt Liu sat in her room, saying that the prince had sent the letter back, picked up the apricot eyes and put down the tea in her hand, took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, and then slowly took the letter.
From beginning to end, there was no anxiety because it was a letter sent by the prince, and the movements were elegant and durable, and the girl serving beside her did not feel any strange when she saw this.
Liu opened the letter and read it, handed it to the candle and lit it, and then went to the ground casually, watching the letter burn out little by little, before raising his eyes.
The people around didn't dare to take a breath, although the Liu family was just an aunt, but she was in charge of the affairs in the backyard of the house before, although Concubine Mu had handed over the power after entering the mansion, but they were all under the control of Aunt Liu before, so they were naturally afraid.
Liu's family was born in a family of eunuchs, and his father was in charge of the Ministry of Rites in the court, although he was not an important courtier, but because he was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, the daughter raised was decent, and people couldn't find fault between raising their fingers and doing things.
To say that this is also fate, Liu's background, should have married a comparable family as a young grandmother, but when she went out to incense once, she was favored by Feng Guran, and the next day she let people lift up the house as an aunt.
If it were an ordinary woman, she would have been crying non-stop for a long time, but Liu's life as if nothing had happened, and she started to be an aunt safely, Feng Guran liked her very much, so she was very fond of her, and she was not delicate or boring when she saw that she was favored, and the princess had no female master, so she handed over the affairs of the inner courtyard to her.
Over the years, the Liu family has never forgotten his identity, let alone oppressing other women with the power in his hands, so the backyard of the Rui Wangfu is also calm.
However, since Mu Lingyun married in, the palace is not like before, since the power of the Liu family was handed over, the backyard often heard the dissatisfaction of the women, and a few who wanted to make a fuss were all disposed of by Mu Lingyun by seizing this opportunity, which also played a deterrent role.
This made Mu Lingyun feel complacent, and the Liu family watched coldly, anyway, it was a side concubine, she was just an aunt, so naturally she couldn't care so much, just live her own peaceful life.
Now that she has received this letter from the prince, it makes her want to be quiet, and the corners of her lips are hooked with a smile that seems to be nothing, all these years of hard work have not been in vain, the prince still trusts himself, at this time, don't you write to let me find a way to drive Mu Lingyun's family out unknowingly?
The one who has no looks and a stupid brain can have a woman, but it's just for her to jump for a few days.
"Magpie, what's going on in the side yard these days?" The magpie is the girl that Liu brought from home.
Also henchmen.
The magpie took the small quilt and put it on the master's lap, and said with a light smile, "Concubine Mu has been suppressing the women in the courtyard since she entered the house, how can it be quiet over there, she is either crying or beating people all day long, it is very lively, Concubine Mu's mother is a troublemaker, in front of her family, Concubine Mu has to be even more majestic." ”
Liu raised his eyelids and glanced at her, the magpie knew that he had said the wrong thing, lowered his head and retreated, Liu said lightly, "You are what I brought from the palace, and I also know what the situation is in the palace right now, I am just an aunt, one wrong step will be doomed, and the prince is a merciful person, so he has to rely on himself, in the future, such words will have to be said nonsense, even if they are rotten in their hearts, they can't say it, and they reach the ears of some people, isn't our efforts in vain all these years?" ”
"The slave knows what is wrong."
The magpie also knows that she said the wrong thing, over the years, she has watched how the young lady has worked hard step by step to the present, the young lady was a proud person, how many families came to ask for marriage were rejected by the young lady, but I didn't want to be looked at by the king of Rui, so I carried the person into the house, and she was an aunt.
After knowing this, the young lady didn't say anything, locked herself in the house, and when she came out, she said goodbye to her family with a smile, and was lifted to the palace by a small cyan sedan chair.
"If she does that, it will only make her bored with the prince sooner, but after all, she has a brother who is a general, and the prince can put up with her for a while, let's just do our own thing, whoever likes to make trouble, let her make trouble, you go to the big kitchen for a while and let someone stew some bird's nest for me, remember to tell them to use the best bird's nest." Liu already had a plan in his heart.
The magpie retreated in response, and at night, how did the master remember to eat bird's nest? And to use the best bird's nest, wouldn't it be to attract Concubine Mu's eyes, originally Concubine Mu didn't like the master because the master was in charge of the inner courtyard before, if it wasn't for the master's drip, it would have been in trouble for Concubine Mu.
Especially bird's nest, in the past few days, Concubine Mu's family has come to stew bird's nest in the kitchen all day long, while other concubines want to eat but can only get it a few times, and there are many people who come to the master to complain.
Today's master actually said that if you eat bird's nest, you have to eat good, is it possible that the master is going to fight back?
Thinking that since the concubine entered the mansion, the days have been very depressing, and the master is going to fight back, which is great, and the magpie is much lighter when he thinks of this.
When the kitchen man saw the magpie coming, it was still so late, he hurriedly greeted him, "The magpie girl is here." ”
The magpie glanced in and saw that there was still something stewed on the stove, so he smiled and said, "Our aunt wants to eat bird's nest, let me tell you, and she also said that we need to use the best bird's nest." ”
The mother-in-law in the kitchen has been taken care of by the Liu family before, and when she heard that Aunt Liu wanted to eat, she immediately smiled and responded, while asking people to get the best bird's nest, if the concubines next to them only took ordinary bird's nests to deal with, after all, Concubine Mu ordered, the best bird's nest in the house is for the master to eat, and the aunt and concubine are just subordinates.
The magpie thanked him with satisfaction and turned back, and it happened that the girl spider plant next to Mu Lingyun came to the kitchen to get supper and saw this scene, she didn't see it when she went in, she took the supper and left, but the pace of going to the side courtyard was a little faster.
After Mu Lingyun heard what Spider Lan finished speaking, he snorted coldly, and the Zhang family couldn't help but open his mouth, "Such concubines can't be let go, otherwise they won't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and you have passed on the words, and the mother-in-law in the kitchen didn't even put your words in her ears, but sold her an aunt face, daughter, such a person can't be kept." ”
In the past few days, you can enjoy the days of your ancestors in Rui Wangfu, and Zhang's shelf has also been served.
Mu Lingyun has been looking for an opportunity, and today she finally found an opportunity, she didn't need her mother to say that she wouldn't turn a blind eye, and raised her eyebrows, "Let's go over and take a look, I think she's not feeling well." ”
Zhang smiled, "This is a good girl." ”
After speaking, he picked up the bird's nest that the spider plant took back and ate it, to say that this Rui Wangfu is rich, you can eat bird's nest every day, it is better than in Mufu, and her daughter is the biggest here, who dares to disrespect herself.
After Mu Lingyun put it on, he glanced at it in front of the bronze mirror again, and then went out with the spider plant, as for the Liu family, he had been waiting for someone to send it to the door, and the matter ordered by the prince could be solved today, so that it would be upgraded by one level in the prince's heart, right?
"Yo, what is Aunt Liu eating? It smells fragrant, and this concubine came at the right time. Mu Lingyun didn't let people inform, and directly raised the curtain and walked in.
Liu put down the bowl in his hand, stood up and blessed himself, "The concubine has seen Concubine Mu. ”
Mu Lingyun didn't call her up, walked straight to the couch and sat down, looking at the bird's nest on the square table, "Yo, the color of this bird's nest is so good, it can be seen that it is not ordinary." ”
Directly ignored the Liu family and went straight to the bird's nest.
Liu replied directly, "Concubine Mu has good eyesight, and it is the best bird's nest." ”
Mu Lingyun raised his head and looked over, "Our Wangfu family has a big business, and the population is also large, there is a place where you don't pay attention, this silver is like flowing water, the people in the warehouse a while ago don't have a few catties of the best bird's nest, it's freezing this day, and I don't know what the prince will eat when he comes back?" ”
Liu raised his head in surprise, "There is such a thing?" Why haven't you heard of it? When I heard that the people in the house said that the best bird's nest was taken out by Concubine Mu and eaten by her family, the concubine was still envious of Concubine Mu's family, and she could have a filial daughter like Concubine Mu. How good is that? Concubine Mu doesn't have to worry, when the prince comes back, the concubine will go to ask for guilt in person. ”
Mu Lingyun's face was slightly ugly, "Which rotten person is talking nonsense, where can my mother and father eat that bird's nest, this concubine is bent on keeping it for the prince, how can she mess up the rules herself." ”
Liu committed himself to kneeling on the ground, "It's the concubine who said wrong, and the concubine is guilty." ”
"Since you haven't heard about it, I don't blame you for this, you get up, it seems that the people in this kitchen have to be replaced, and I can't tell who is the master" Mu Lingyun stood up, glanced at Liu meaningfully, and strode away.
It wasn't until he heard the footsteps and walked away that Liu stood up with the magpie's hand, and a weird smile rose from the corner of his lips.
The magpie also saw that the master was a drunkard and did not mean to drink, but he didn't know what the master cared about.
Mu Lingyun went all the way back to his side courtyard, and when he entered the house and saw that his mother was still eating, he was a little annoyed in his heart, although he could replace the person in the kitchen with this, which could be regarded as a bargain, but thinking about Liu's words just now, he had no bottom in his heart.
In case the prince comes back, she really goes to the prince to admit her mistake and arches her family's bird's nest eating thing, what will the prince think of herself?
No, you have to send your family out of the house first, it's best to let your mother take some bird's nest from Mufu to make it back, and then if the Liu family sues himself in front of the prince, wouldn't this be lifting a stone to hit yourself in the foot? In this way, in front of the prince, the Liu family has fallen out of favor since then, and in the future, he will not be able to handle it as he wants, and the prince will not ask.
