Chapter 152: The Vase Placed Upside Down (1st Update)
There are still two days to go before the New Year, and news came out in the palace that Concubine Li's cold worsened, she contracted a vicious disease, and died violently.
The news of Concubine Li's violent death had just spread, and at the same time, the old prince of the Suguo Mansion was overly sad and died suddenly because he heard the news of his daughter's death.
People who don't know the inside story may still think that this is the truth, but in fact it is just the handiwork of Emperor Chu, and he probably doesn't want to exaggerate his illness, but the dignified emperor was poisoned by his favorite concubine, and it is not a glorious thing to say it.
He has been pulling out poison for the past two days, and only he knows the pain, and choosing to deal with Concubine Li at this time is probably revenge, he is in pain, so don't think about having a good year.
The queen mother seems to have suffered some blow, and she also fell ill, Li Guifei's funeral was personally handled by the queen, which really responded to that sentence, people who are too arrogant and too arrogant will fight sooner or later, and the person who laughs to the end is the winner, Li Guifei did not lose the queen's face when she was favored by Emperor Chu during her lifetime, but did she ever think that one day she died, but the funeral was done for her by the queen?
Two relatives passed away, Princess Ninghua is equivalent to filial piety, she is already nearly eighteen years old, if you wait a little longer, it is another three years, that age is too big, and before the relatives are buried, you don't have to abide by the three-year limit, you only need to wear three years of plain clothes in her husband's house after marriage to show filial piety.
So Emperor Chu issued an order to let Princess Ninghua marry into the Mu family on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and Mu Tianchen, who went to Qin State, was also on the way back, and he should be able to arrive on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Emperor Chu first searched a large circle in the palace and killed a lot of people, obviously he was investigating something, originally the focus was on the queen, but it turned out that it was the concubine who died, where could this group of people not detect anything? But everyone pretended to be silent, didn't know anything, and waited for the sinking of the Suguo Mansion.
Princess Ninghua made trouble in the palace for a while, she didn't want to get married, she wanted to keep filial piety for Concubine Li, she didn't want to go out of the palace, but unfortunately, no matter how she made trouble, Emperor Chu no longer gave her a trace of love.
Concubine Li can be vicious enough to poison him, and the daughter she gave birth to actually learned to raise male pets in captivity, ruined her innocence and was pregnant, how could he still have a trace of warmth?
used to be the most favored concubine and the most beloved daughter, but in the end they all became his shame and joke.
And outside the palace, how high the former Princess Ninghua was praised, and how low she is now trampled on, it is clear that all the palace people in her palace have been ordered to withdraw by Concubine Li, and the man named Yujin was even more frustrated, but the matter of Princess Ninghua raising a male pet by her side still came out, before she was held by the Nine Heavens Fairy, and now she is a lewd slut who stepped into the ground, and the Mu family, who received the holy decree and was ready to welcome the princess, became the object of ridicule.
The wedding procurement and preparation are all handled by subordinates, and the eldest lady has no shame to come forward.
Mu Jiu didn't gloat, she should just watch the show, and the others were not enough, because she didn't take this kind of spoiled princess in her eyes at all, and her opponents couldn't be called them.
The reason why Princess Ninghua can stand tall and be arrogant is just because her mother is Concubine Li, her family is the mansion of Suguo, and she is the favor of Emperor Chu, but now she has lost them all, falling into the mud, and only unbearable, and she herself is afraid that all that is left is full of grievances and hatred, such a person Mu Jiu has seen a lot, and there are countless daughters who hate her to the extreme after being downtrod in her previous life, and Princess Ninghua still has to be numbered.
Speaking of which, Mu Jiu actually has a trace of sympathy for Princess Ninghua, who is not good to provoke, but Xiao Junshu is provoked, when he is ruthless, he is really ruthless.
Mu Jiu listened to the excitement for a while, and then began to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, in fact, she was just responsible for thinking about the dishes, and then watching the little blue fish cook them.
No way, she can't cook herself, and that kind of dish still doesn't have to be ugly at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Originally, Mu Jiu wanted to help peel the skin, peel a garlic or something, but in the end, he was directly invited back by Weixue.
'Master, you don't need to do this, you just need to take a shower, dress up, and go to eat beautifully. ’
Mu Jiu held the garlic head and protested: "Weixue, I think you are discriminating against me, I am also a diligent person, how can I say it as if it is a vase?"
Weixue is speechless: ...... No, master, how lazy are you and you don't have a little count in your heart? Also vase? On weekdays, you are either lying on your stomach or lying down, have you ever seen a vase placed upside down?
In the end, Mu Jiu protested, so he had to go back to burn incense and bathe, probably because it was too comfortable, and then successfully fell asleep on the bathtub......
Weixue woke up Mu Jiu and asked her to get up and change her clothes, and what she brought was the skirt that Lan You embroidered for her: New Year, looking festive, and Buddhist scriptures, you can bless your master with a safe and smooth New Year.
Mu Jiu pulled his eyelids, this dress is really good-looking, the bright red with the Buddhist scriptures looks very similar to that, but Mu Jiu just wanted to collect it as a work of art, and he didn't think about wearing it?
The most important thing is that Lan You's red choice is too positive, this is the red brocade for embroidering wedding dresses, because she wants to give it to her, Lan You chooses the most expensive and best kind of material, the fabric is smooth and smooth, with auspicious clouds and dark lines, very good-looking, but how to wear this color?
Of course, Mu Jiu just resisted this color, and he didn't say that he was really afraid to wear it.
Then she was forced to put it on by the light snow......
I always feel that these two maids have become more and more bold recently, and they always bully her, a kind and beautiful master.
Fortunately, Weixue didn't toss on her head, considering that she would have to eat later, the complicated headdress was inconvenient, so she just coiled half of her hair into a simple style and embellished a jade hairpin.
After the makeup was painted, Mu Jiu got up and looked at herself in the mirror, it was obviously a bright red color, but with simple hair accessories and soft makeup, she actually saw a trace of gentleness and virtuous charm in herself, it was really ...... It's weird.
When Mu Jiu finished tossing, it was time to eat.
A large round table in the front hall, in addition to Mu Jiu and Xiao Junshu, Nanfeng, Xigui, Dongyue, Xiaoqingyu and Weixue all have places, and even Hua Yan in the palace hurried back, looking at a large table of dishes and sighing, the food in the Hou Mansion looked kind, and he was about to vomit with the skills of the imperial chef in the palace.
It's not bad, it's just so fine that it doesn't suit the taste.
Mu Jiu also stepped on the past, just when everyone came, there was a stove in the house, Mu Jiu took off his cloak when he entered the door, turned to look at her gaze, and raised his eyebrows: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
Hua Yan was more straightforward, and did not hide his exclamation at all: "Tsk, amazing, it turns out that Miss Mu also looks like a good wife and mother." ”
The three of them nodded in approval, looking dignified, much like a housewife.
A good wife and mother? Mu Jiu gave him a roll of his eyes, he didn't know what he was talking about, did she look like that kind of woman? A good wife? She's idle.
Xiao Junshu took a slow step in, his eyes naturally looked for Mu Jiu, and then he saw that red, very unexpected color, most of his clothes were thick and colorful, but Mu Jiu seemed to like light and elegant, and rarely saw her wearing dark clothes.
And this body should be bold red, but wearing it on her softened her coldness and coolness, and his wife's gentleness should probably be like this.
