Two hours later, the festival ended.

In the kneeling of the ministers and their families, the emperor and the concubine left the altar and drove back to the palace.

As soon as the superiors left, the tense atmosphere in the Temple of Heaven and Earth gradually eased.

People who had been kneeling on the ground for a long time supported each other and slowly got up.

During the sacrifice period, you can't take people down, but some elderly officials and female dependents are suffering, and the older ones can only rely on the younger ones to help them up.

After Murong Zhuque got up, he also pulled Mrs. Shen up, not that Mrs. Shen was too old to climb up, but that other people's wives had someone to help, but Mrs. Changning Houfu had no one to help, and she would lose face.

Civil wars are civil wars, but when there are foreign wars, civil wars have to give way to foreign wars.

Mrs. Shen noticed this small detail and sighed in her heart - in fact, Ah Qi is a good girl, not as rude and rude as she showed.

I don't know if Ah Qi and Ziyan have taken a turn for the better.

Thinking about it, he sighed, "Ah Qi, let's go back." ”

"Okay." Murong Suzaku also wanted to leave the land of right and wrong quickly.

After saying that, the two left in a hurry.

Unaware of it, she was being watched.

At the other end,

Some officials surrounded the prince, trying to say something that they didn't have, just to make a face in front of His Royal Highness the prince.

Everyone didn't notice that when the elegant prince was talking to them, his eyes swept to the side silently.

Gonggong Ge, who had just entered the altar, saw that the prince gestured to him with his eyes, so he hurriedly stepped forward and deliberately said, "Your Highness, the slave has an urgent matter." ”

The ministers saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in a hurry, so they left one after another.

The crown prince took Gonggong Ge and said as he walked, "Before the sacrifice began, the female dependents of the Rite Ministry Waiter's family seemed to have a conflict with Murong Sparrow. ”

Gonggong Ge was puzzled, why did His Highness suddenly say this, was he angry? Or what?

Prince, "Go and ask the palace maids who are waiting over there, why they are in conflict, the more detailed the better." ”

“…… Yes, the minion will pass. Father-in-law Ge took the order and turned around.

The prince was anxious to wait for the news, and he didn't want to be entangled by the officials anymore, so he casually found an open space to walk.

Suddenly, a faint fragrance hits.

He didn't have to look to guess who was coming.

Or rather, which two people came. The mood of high spirits seems to be extinguished by cold water.

But the prince did not show his displeasure, on the contrary, with a smile on his face, he turned to face the two beautiful women.

"You haven't gone back yet?"

The person who came was none other than the prince's two concubines, Concubine Murong and Concubine Xin.

When Murong Yanran saw His Royal Highness the noble and handsome Crown Prince, his heart was beating wildly, and his pink cheeks also increased crimson, "The concubine has seen His Royal Highness, but yet, will His Highness still have official business?" If not, let's go back to the palace together. ”

Today's royal sacrifice, the emperor decreed, after the sacrifice, all the participating officials can go home to rest, no longer need to be on duty.

The prince's elegant cheeks were a little ashamed, "There is indeed business, my father handed over the construction of Xuanlong Temple to this palace, and you have seen it today, my father attaches great importance to Xuanlong, and this palace does not dare to neglect it." ”

Murong Yanran bit her lip lightly, and there was more complaining and coquettishness in her voice, "But His Highness hasn't been back to the East Palace for many days, and the concubine is worried about His Highness's body." ”

The crown prince chuckled, "Let you worry, is it the palace, the palace promised you that you will return to the palace as soon as possible." ”

Just when Murong Yanran was dominating the crown prince, Xin Zhuyu's eyes secretly looked at the prince's expression, and then looked at Gonggong Ge, who was asking the palace maid in the distance, and his eyes were a little more thoughtful.

"Zhuyu, why don't you speak, it shouldn't be that you're angry with the main palace?" The prince teased.

Xin Zhuyu hurriedly retracted the suspicion in his eyes, and said respectfully, "Your Highness has wronged your concubine, how can your concubine be angry with Your Highness?" The concubine will only worry about His Highness's body. ”

The crown prince raised his eyebrows, "In other words, the two of you are only worried about the body of the main palace, and other than that, don't you miss the main palace?" In vain, the palace still thinks about you on weekdays. ”

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and they were instantly provoked by the man to blush and heartbeat, "Concubine...... Of course...... I miss Your Highness. Murong Yanran's face turned red and whispered.

Even if he was as calm as Xin Zhuyu, he lowered his eyes shyly, pursed his lips, and refused to speak.

The shrewdness in the prince's eyes flashed away, and then his tone was gentle, "You guys go back first, this palace will try to return to the palace tonight." Even if you don't go back today, you will definitely go back tomorrow. ”

"Really? Thank you, Your Highness, concubine! Murong Yanran smiled happily.

Xin Zhuyu played the role of a virtuous helper, "Your Highness's kindness, the concubine has received it physically and mentally, but His Royal Highness is still based on the tasks assigned by his father, and the concubine is not in a hurry." ”

The prince smiled and said to Xin Zhuyu, "Don't worry, this palace is measured, you go back to rest first and take care of yourself." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

After the two curts, they left.

The prince also regained his calm expression, and continued to walk freely in the clearing, without a trace of wave on his cheeks, as if nothing had happened just now.

After Gonggong Ge finished asking, he ran back and replied to the prince's words.

……

Murong Yanran and Xin Zhuyu did not ride in the same chariot, but each got into their own car.

As soon as she got into the car, Murong Yanran's bridal maid Yuehe said, "Miss, are you tired?" The slave and maid pressed your legs? ”

Murong Yanran watched Concubine Xin get into the carriage through the car window, and snorted, "Pretend." ”

Yuehe immediately understood who his young lady was talking about, and her tone changed, "It's not, pretending to be a good wife and mother, with the posture of an old woman, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still young, who likes that kind of old woman who is not interested." ”

Listening to the maid's scolding, Murong Yanran felt a little relieved, "She has nothing to do with it except pretending to be a good wife and mother." The first talented woman? Hehe. ”

"To be a beauty, who wants to be a talented woman? Those talented women are all famous because they are ugly. Yuehe echoed.

Another carriage.

After Xin Zhuyu got into the carriage, he said, "Lin'er, did you understand the hint from the palace just now?" ”

Lin'er said tentatively, "Did Miss just let the slave show the maid Gonggong Ge who lectured the palace maid?" ”

Xin Zhuyu applauded, "It's worthy of you, you are really smart." ”

Lin'er hurriedly said modestly, "The slave doesn't dare to take credit, it's the young lady who teaches her well." ”

"Do you remember that palace maid?"

"This ...... The slave maid has some impressions that you can look for. Miss rest assured, so many people saw Ge Gonggong's words, and the slave and maid would definitely be able to find that person. ”

"Excellent! No matter what means are used, you must ask what Grandpa Ge said, but this matter must be kept secret. ”

"Yes, miss, don't worry!"

The carriage then started and headed for the palace.

Just halfway through, Concubine Xin's carriage stopped, and then Lin'er jumped out of the carriage.

Don't ask, asking is to help the side concubine buy something.

After that, the convoy returned to the palace, needless to say.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

As soon as Murong Zhuque woke up from a lazy sleep, he saw Zhu lingering into the room.

Rubbing his eyes, he asked, "You got up so early?" Did you get enough sleep? ”

The two of them have to go around the Rui Wang's Mansion every night, so they go to bed late and get up late.

Fortunately, no one cares about her in the Marquis of Changning Mansion now, so Murong Suzaku can sleep lazily every day.

"Miss don't worry, the slave maid has slept enough," Zhu Liulian said, "That's the case, Miss Di is here." ”

"Otissa? Come to be the dog prince's microphone again? ”

Murong Suzaku was ready to welcome the prince brand microphone, but he didn't expect that Di Shasha hurriedly came over for another matter.
