Chapter 190: Guarding the Tomb
Seeing that the nurse was speechless, Mo Jinxi didn't want to say anything more, but said lightly: "You go down first, Jinzhu will call Yunxiang over." ”
"Thank you, Queen. She was grateful to hear that the queen had no intention of blaming her and let her leave intact.
"Yes," Jin Zhu replied and left.
A moment later, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the house, and she knew that Yunxiang was coming. A wicked smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
The queen summoned her suddenly, and she must have been informed of the situation. In this case, she must be prepared to not be able to get out of this door today, and die in peace. Because she has no nobleman, he doesn't want to live anymore.
Thinking that she had put aside life and death, she followed Jin Zhu frankly. As soon as the "Queen Mother Auspicious" saw Mo Jinxi's back, she asked for an answer.
"Yunxiang, you were bumped into by the nurse yesterday and clutched the house, what do you have to say?" she said coldly, not turning to look at her.
"The slave didn't know what the queen was talking about. The more she spoke, the more she bowed her head, and her voice became quieter and quieter, not daring to look directly at her back.
"I don't know, little princess. She quickly turned to look at her, gritted her teeth and asked clearly.
After looking at Mo Jinxi, she lost the courage she had at the beginning, she shrank her neck in fright, and her body unconsciously retreated. Mo Jinxi's deep eyes seemed to be bound to her by a whirlpool, and she couldn't escape her inner thoughts.
"Yes, it's a slave. I don't want to live anymore when the noble man is dead. She boldly told the truth under Mo Jinxi's tight gaze, and felt relieved. Whether this is dead or alive depends on Mo Jinxi.
"The emperor has arrived" came the strange voice of his father-in-law outside the door.
When the people in the palace heard this, they immediately knelt down to say goodbye.
"How's it going, Ji'er?" Liuqin walked quickly to Mo Jinxi, took her hand, and asked anxiously. As soon as he heard that something had happened to Ji'er, he rushed over to take a look.
"The doctor said there was no cure, and I didn't know what to do. Mo Jinxi felt ashamed of him and didn't take good care of Mulan. He sighed and turned his head sadly.
"What? Then let the culprit die. After speaking, he glared at Yun Xiang, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Yun Xiang was also trembling all over her body when she was stared at him, her palms were sweaty, and her eyes were constantly dodging with her head down. She knew she wouldn't be able to escape, but she was still scared when she faced them.
"Don't. Since she is so loyal to her master, let her go and guard the tomb of her master. Hearing Liuqin say this, she hurriedly spoke out to stop her.
"Okay. Liuqin whispered, fully aware of her feelings.
Yun Xiang was surprised, she didn't expect that she hadn't been executed.
"Someone, drag her to the mausoleum. Liuqin didn't even look at him after speaking, so he locked his eyes on Mo Jinxi.
A few days later, Mo Jinxi was teasing the two children in the house.
"Niangniang, did you hear that? Yunxiang committed suicide repeatedly. I really don't know what she's thinking in her head, can't she live well?" Yinzhu came over with tea and told Mo Jinxi what had happened in the palace in the past few days. Speaking of this Yunxiang, she shook her head helplessly.
"Really? Mo Jinxi smiled faintly and didn't take what she said to heart. Because every time Yun Xiang seeks death, she will secretly help her and let her survive.
Seeing that Niangniang continued to coax the child, she didn't speak, and stayed by her side.
In this way, on the tenth day of the first month, the Queen Mother was seriously ill and passed away.
"How could this be, didn't the Queen Mother take medicine? How could she die suddenly?" Mo Jinxi, who heard the news, was incredulous. Although the Queen Mother is sick, is there a spirit grass?
Liuqin shook his head weakly, and then said lightly to her: "The spirit grass that Xu Jixing brought back from Shandong is useless. In that case, it is up to you to preside over the mourning. ”
He looked at her with indescribable sadness in his eyes. She knew that the Queen Mother had died, and he must have felt bad in his heart. After all, when she heard the news, she also felt thunder, and somewhere in her heart suddenly fell into vain.
Mo Jinxi nodded, her eyes firm, and she responded, "I know, I will." ”
Hearing that Mo Jinxi had agreed, he nodded lightly. Squinted his eyes, looked at her, lowered his voice and asked lightly, "How about I implement the practice of apportionment at this time?"
"The concubine thinks it's okay. Now that the Queen Mother has died, there is no need for anyone to stop her because of royal affection. So now is a great opportunity and we should take advantage of it. Mo Jinxi agreed with his idea very much, nodded and whispered.
Liuqin saw that Mo Jinxi also agreed, and felt happy in her heart. It's just that he still has to deal with government affairs and doesn't have much time to spend with her. So he touched her head dotingly, then made it clear to her, and turned away.
It didn't take long for chaos to fall in front of the Yongchang Waiting Mansion.
"Let's go in, let's get in. They rebuked the servants who stood in their way, and struggled.
The servants were also speechless when they saw this group of Houfu families. Because the emperor launched the paving into the mu not long ago, they felt that it was not beneficial. So they gathered together and came to this Yongchang Houfu to ask Mo Liancheng to intercede with the queen.
The emperor's favorite is the queen's mother, and it is easiest to listen to her opinions. They can't easily meet the queen mother, but they can not forgive Mo Liancheng and let him help to intercede.
But Mo Liancheng didn't have time to take care of these things, and he couldn't let his daughter easily interfere in court affairs. I rejected them again and again. But as if they hadn't heard, they ran to the house with their gifts.
"Master, I can't resist it at all. They had been screaming at the door for days and nights, and some of them had their throats cut, but they just wouldn't leave, and they almost wounded us. The housekeeper told Mo Liancheng the truth about the situation outside the door, because now the people in his house will not be able to hold it at all, and the threshold will be trampled on.
Hearing the butler's words, Mo Liancheng rubbed his eyebrows weakly. Suddenly he stood up and walked out.
The butler was a little confused, so he followed out. Then he found Mo Liancheng holding a large knife and walked towards the door angrily.
The housekeeper thought to himself, this is not an impulsive thing, he has to hurry up and take a look, to stop the master from doing this.
Seeing Mo Liancheng walking out with a big sword and angrily rushing out, those Houfu families hurriedly retreated, for fear that he was coming to hurt them.
But Morian just hung his head on the door, glared at them fiercely, and then turned away.
The housekeeper saw it and was relieved.
In this way, this matter reached Mo Jinxi's ears.
"Let's go and persuade them one by one, so that they can stop objecting. Mo Jinxi packed up her clothes and planned to pull the gold and silver beads out of the palace.
"Niangniang, but ......" Seeing Yinzhu's hesitant appearance, Mo Jinxi was a little puzzled. "What's wrong? ”
Yinzhu scratched her head and said in a slurred manner. "I heard that they are quite fierce in the old man's mansion, so the slave maid is a little worried. ”
"It's okay, I'm going to visit them in their house, can they have any opinions? And if anything happens to me in their house, will the emperor let them go? Now we go to persuade them because we may be blinded by them. Mo Jinxi said in a clear and coherent manner, allowing her to let go of her inner worries. She didn't believe that they would be so ignorant and ignorant.
"Good. Hearing Mo Jinxi say this, Yinzhu smiled and responded. How could she forget that this was the queen mother, no matter how big the resentment in the house was, she didn't dare to make a rash move.
Seeing that Yinzhu was already at ease, he was ready to go. "Call the gold beads too. The gold bead was not there, so she asked the silver bead to call for it.
It didn't take long for them to set off. The first place they went to was Yongping Houfu.
When she came to Yongping Houfu, she looked at the big plaque at the door, she raised her eyes and glanced up, and then walked in unhurriedly and elegantly. And the two girls in the back were very scared in their hearts, there are so many people in this mansion, but it is not the palace, and they will be hurt by others if they are not careful.
Looking at the old man of Yongping Houfu, Mo Jinxi smiled, and then prepared to talk to him about things. But he kept shuddering at her, as if he knew her intentions, and deliberately prevented her from saying it.
Mo Jinxi really didn't want to talk too much nonsense to him, so she told him the purpose of this visit straightforwardly. Seeing that he was speechless and didn't speak, she knew that he should be about to escape the topic again. But she wouldn't let it.
At sunset, "Awesome, all of them have been persuaded by us." After Yinzhu came out of the last mansion, she began to speak with her eyebrows fluttering and smiling like a flower.
"It's the mother who is awesome, they all were dumbfounded, and we broke them one by one. Jin Zhu couldn't help but interject with a smile
She was also very happy to hear them praise her like this, and covered her mouth and smiled. But today, she really felt some backache. So she couldn't help but turn her head in public.
When the two girls saw Mo Jinxi like this, they hurriedly stepped forward to help her.
"It's okay, you still have things in your hands, you don't need to help me. Seeing this, the two girls giggled again.
Seeing them smiling so happily, she knew that the Great Mu Dynasty had been unprecedentedly prosperous during Liuqin's reign, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
After returning to the palace, Liuqin immediately rushed over.
Seeing him come in such a hurry, she was uneasy. Could it be that something is happening again? She took out a clean handkerchief to wipe his sweat, her face worried.
Seeing that she was worried, Liuqin tightly held her hand that was still wiping his sweat, and then whispered: "I'm fine, I just came over after dealing with the government." I want to tell you the good news, how about we go to Shandong tomorrow? ”
Hearing the good news, Mo Jinxi tilted her head and squinted her eyes and smiled: "Okay, then I'll let them tidy up the clothes they need to bring."
