The bell of the national funeral rang on the sixth day of the lunar month, and the people in Shengjing City spontaneously stopped gathering to be lively, and the cries of selling in the streets and alleys also stopped abruptly.

The entire Shengjing City was immersed in silence, and the social exchanges between the high-ranking families also stopped, and no one dared to be the first bird who did not know whether to live or die at this juncture.

Mu Weiwei followed Lu Dingyuan's nurturing grandmother who he found out of nowhere to learn about the etiquette in the palace for a few days, and how to greet the nobles in the palace and other trivial matters.

On the twelfth day of the lunar month, the coffin of the Empress Dowager Song was transported out of the palace, and Mu Weiwei followed a group of officials and relatives to kneel and bid farewell to the Empress Dowager Song.

The corner of his eye swept the emperor and Sheng Qingyi crying uncontrollably, but the Empress Dowager Song's daughter-in-law Sheng Tianjiao and niece Empress Song were more normal, except for wiping tears with a pale face, but they were far from crying and grabbing the ground.

After kneeling in the palace for two hours, Mu Wei was carefully carried into the carriage back home by Lu Dingyuan with his legs open.

"Didn't you ask Lin Niang to put knee pads on you? Why do you just kneel on the ground like that? It's all frozen with red marks. ”

Lu Dingyuan said as he took Tang Pozi into her arms and let her hold her warm hands, then rubbed his hands and placed the warm palms on her legs and knees.

Mu Weiwei was so frozen that he couldn't care about his movements, and he covered the soup woman with one hand and picked up the hot tea with the other trembling.

The hot air entered the throat and went straight to the stomach, Mu Weiwei felt that he was alive again, exhaled the hot air and replied: "The first time I entered this palace, I have been cautious in everything I said and acted carefully, if I am questioned today because I wear knee pads, how can you protect me?" ”

"Or let the emperor use this matter as a lever to control you and me, and let him humiliate me?"

"Weiwei, it's me who didn't think about it."

Lu Dingyuan thought that he had inserted so many hidden stakes in the palace, even if she really did make a mistake, she didn't need to panic, but he ignored her feelings alone.

Mu Weiwei knew that she was angry with Lu Dingyuan, and he couldn't lead the funeral of the Empress Dowager Song, but she couldn't help but blame him.

blame him for letting himself be despised by others, and blame him for forgetting everything and letting himself suffer so much that he can only swallow it silently.

"Don't say it, I want to go home, it's uncomfortable here." Avoiding Lu Dingyuan's guilty gaze, Mu Wei leaned on the side of the chair and said a wilted word.

Lu Dingyuan wanted to hug someone into his arms to comfort her, but he didn't have the qualifications yet, and she didn't want to believe him.

After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion and seeing his son's lovely smile, Mu Weiwei Aiwu and Wudi had a good face towards Lu Dingyuan.

Originally, in the next three months, according to the Dasheng ritual law, it was forbidden to gather crowds and be lively, and they had to dress plainly.

But considering that there is still half a month to enter the Spring Festival, even if the royal family wears filial piety, it cannot stop the laughter of the people.

Sheng Tianyou specially ordered the filial piety period to end early, but ordered the monks of Xiangguo Temple to recite scriptures for the Empress Dowager Song to help the Empress Dowager Song ascend to bliss early.

On the fourteenth day of the lunar month, Sheng Tianjiao set off for the fiefdom of Huaicheng, so eager that she couldn't even spend the New Year in Shengjing.

In the ten-mile peach blossom pavilion outside Shengjing City, Mu Weiwei took Lu Qingbai to reluctantly say goodbye to Sheng Tianjiao.

"Sister Jiao, take care, I'll take the barbarian to Huaicheng to see you when I'm free, you have to be good." Mu reluctantly hugged Sheng Tianjiao.

Sheng Tianjiao is not very sad, it is her dream to leave Sheng Jing, not to mention that this is still the last wish of the queen mother before her death, she finally has to return to the place that makes her temporarily happy but hurts to the bone marrow.

"Weiwei, take care of yourself and Brother Bai'er, I'm waiting for you to come and see me in Huaicheng."

"Brother Bai'er, you must not forget your aunt, otherwise your aunt will be uncomfortable."

"I'll always remember my aunt." Lu Qingbai snuggled up on Mu Weiwei's shoulder and flattened his mouth, the villain knew that his aunt was leaving, and he felt very uncomfortable.

Sheng Tianjiao finally hugged Lu Qingbai reluctantly, and it was not until the personal maid Hua Luo reminded that it was not too early to leave, and Sheng Tianjiao returned the villain to Mu Weiwei's arms.

"Weiwei, I don't have anything to give you, but I have to worry about you."

"As long as I can do it, Sister Jiao, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Mu said to Sheng Tianjiao without squinting, and Sheng Tianjiao couldn't help but smile when she looked like she was going to go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire for her.

"I don't have to be so strict, it's just that my grandma is old, and I can't bear her to leave her homeland and go to Huaicheng with me, so I want to entrust Mama Ruan to you."

said that it was a trust, but in fact, it was more like adding a qualified master for Mu Weiwei.

Under Sheng Tianjiao's recommendation, Mama Ruan calmly walked to Mu Weiwei, and said without humility or arrogance: "The old body has seen Mrs. Lu, thanks to the love of the eldest princess, the old body licked his face and stayed by Mrs. Lu's side to serve today." ”

"Where is Mama, you are the elder next to Sister Jiao, and now Sister Jiao is willing to cut her love and let you follow me, I have to learn from you how to take charge of the house, and then Mama is not allowed to think that I am stupid and slow to learn."

Mu's humble and respectful attitude made Mama Ruan understand the eldest princess's intention to keep her by Mrs. Lu's side, and such a woman with such a heart is in line with the eldest princess's heart.

"Madame's troublesome temperament reminds the old body of the eldest princess when she was young." Mama Ruan smiled and laughed at herself.

"Weiwei, Mama will entrust it to you, if you have anything to ask Mama for advice in the future, she will help you."

"Weiwei, the coming day is long, we will have a date later." After Sheng Tianjiao finished explaining, she finally boarded the carriage and left.

After seeing Sheng Tianjiao's carriage and horses drift away, Lu Dingyuan bowed to Mama Ruan, took the little man in Mu Weiwei's arms and put it on the carriage, and consciously gave the carriage to Mama Ruan.

"Lu Xiangye is very considerate to his wife, and he is not as cold as the outside world rumores, it seems that his wife still has the right to speak in the house."

Mama Ruan judged Mu Weiwei's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion from Lu Dingyuan's small movements.

"Mama, don't make fun of me, Xiangye is busy with official business, and most of the general affairs in the house are handed over to Uncle Wu to take care of, and I also follow along with half understanding."

Although Lu Dingyuan's amnesia is not a big secret, Mu Weiwei is not lacking in heart and eyes to the point of saying it when he meets people.

It is true that Mama Ruan was left by Sheng Tianjiao to help her, but there must be other purposes, there is no doubt about it.

"Madame doesn't have to be humble, Lu Xiangye's temperament and old body are also understood, if he is not willing, others will not be able to get close to him."

"If it weren't for the pressure of His Majesty, Lu Xiangye would never have responded, the old man knew that Mrs. was wronged, but since she let people enter the house, then Mrs. would take the posture of being the housewife."

In Mama Ruan's heart, a gentle and cheerful woman like Mu Weiwei must not understand the selfishness in the inner house.

Compared with Sheng Qingyi, who won the emperor's blue eyes in the palace, Mu Weiwei was afraid that he would have to suffer.
