Chapter 17 Chapter 17 The Empress Invites
Because I was in a hurry to return to Beijing, the trip was more hurried than when I came, and although the carriage was covered with several layers of soft cushions, it was still very bumpy.
The carriage took a sharp turn, and Mo Li's body slammed into the side of the car!
The warm touch spread in his wrist, and Mo Li reacted half a beat slower, realizing that it was Xiao Wenjun who took the handle.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Be careful."
Xiao Wenjun seemed to be just sitting casually, but he was not much more stable than Mo Li, and he didn't see half a point of gaffe no matter how much he shook it.
Mo Li retracted his gaze, calculating in his heart what day it was.
At the beginning, she could still take care of looking at the scenery outside, but after a long time, she had no concept of the rising sun and the setting of the moon, and blindly followed Xiao Wenjun's arrangement.
"Phewβ"
The carriage stopped on the side of the official road, and Lin Jing seemed to be sure of something, and only spoke for a while.
"Miss Mo, when you go down to Qinglong Mountain, the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion is waiting for you in front."
Hearing the word "Xiangfu", the trance in Mo Li's heart dissipated, and he leaned over and lifted the curtain.
A few paces ahead was a carriage, and the coachman was nowhere to be seen, but sandalwood, and a little girl sat in front of the carriage.
The footsteps approached, and Sandalwood hung her head, not looking at it at all.
"What do you think?"
"Miss?!"
Sandalwood looked up suddenly, and her eyes lit up instantly.
The master and servant said a few words, and as soon as Mo Li turned around, Xiao Wenjun's carriage was still parked in place.
"Let's go back first, and I'll talk about it when I have something to say."
It's not a short time to leave the house, and it's time to go back and show your face.
The two carriages followed one after the other, and it was already evening when they arrived at the city gate, and the people entering the city lined up in a long line.
The soldiers defending the city had sharp eyes, saw the emblem of the Prime Minister's Mansion on the carriage in the team from a distance, and hurriedly greeted them.
"What's lined up here, you just have to say it to the front."
"You're welcome, Miss is tired of traveling, just take a break before entering the city, you just do things according to the rules."
Sandalwood remembered the blue and black under Mo Li's eyes, and said a few words to the soldiers.
The magnates in Beijing had some privileges, and the people were unwilling, and the soldiers would not force them, so they bowed to the carriage again.
"Miss Disturb is quiet."
"It's okay, you're kind too."
Mo Li answered, with no intention of showing up.
The soldier failed to curry favor and returned to the inspection team.
In a short time, their carriage was lined up.
"Regent! It's His Royal Highness the Regent! β
Mo Li's carriage had just entered the city gate, and an exclamation suddenly sounded behind him.
Immediately after, one after another exclamations rang out, and everyone saluted.
"Get up, the prince doesn't like to be noisy."
Lin Jing served in the army, and these people naturally recognized him, so they hurriedly stood up when they heard the words.
After such a commotion, the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion in front of him suddenly disappeared.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was close in front of him, and Mo Li opened the curtain.
Not long after leaving, looking at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time, there was a sense of strangeness.
"Miss!"
In a flash, I met the little guy in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Someone has already sent a letter to Qinglong Temple?"
"What's the matter?"
Hearing the little girl's muttering, Mo Li's heart jumped.
"You don't know yet?"
The little maid was surprised for a moment, and hurriedly said: "The queen mother held a flower-viewing banquet in the palace, and asked you to go to the banquet by name, and the little one was about to invite you." β
The Queen?
Mo Li hesitated for a moment, and then remembered who the little guy was talking about.
This is a coincidence, in case she doesn't come back this time, wouldn't it be a handle for people.
She hadn't dealt with this so-called "chosen one" properly, and she didn't know how this person was acting.
It's just that there is a matter of sending someone to assassinate the Qingyuan Daoist in the past, and it is not a good thing to think about it.
Thinking about it, the carriage stopped in front of the Prime Minister's House.
Mo Li got out of the carriage when a voice came from behind him.
"Big sister?"
