Chapter 250: Cold War

Every night before going to bed, Mu Yunting must finish reviewing the day's recitals, and Xu Lianyi is either accompanying him in the imperial study or waiting for him to come back in the room. But today's night was a little different, Xu Lianyi not only rested in the bedroom of the two of them, but also went to another empty bedroom to rest.

"Your Majesty, the queen is not in the dormitory. The eunuch stood beside Mu Yunting and reported the news he had just gotten, "The queen mother has moved to rest." ”

"Has she changed her dormitory?" Mu Yunting heard the eunuch's words, put down the pen he was holding in his hand, and his good-looking brows furrowed slightly.

"Yes. The palace maids also comforted Niangniang, but unfortunately, Niangniang did not listen to them and insisted on moving away. "The eunuch is also a little helpless, the queen is too capricious.

Mu Yunting's brows furrowed even deeper, he was a little helpless, looked at the folds on the table, thought about it, and decided to put down the pen in his hand and go to Xu Lianyi. When the eunuch saw that Mu Yunting actually broke the routine for Xu Lianyi, he sighed again, no wonder the queen was so willful, it turned out that she was favored by the emperor.

According to the eunuch's words, Mu Yunting came to the dormitory where Xu Lianyi moved alone. There was not a single candle lit in the room, Mu Yunting gently pushed open the door and came to Xu Lianyi's bed lightly.

Xu Lianyi was sleeping facing outside, and after hearing the sound, she directly turned her body in a direction and slept facing the wall. And Mu Yunting still wanted to take the initiative to speak, but when he saw Xu Lianyi's action, he had to give up, and he was a little angry and lay on the bed.

"Xu Lianyi, talk to me, I know you didn't sleep. ”

In the second half of the night, Mu Yunting really couldn't stay up, he hadn't slept for most of the night, although he was lying down, but there was something in his heart that should be there, and he couldn't sleep. Xu Lianyi didn't reply to him after speaking, looked at the people lying next to him, sighed helplessly, and then took the initiative to soften and hugged him, very greedy.

Early the next morning, Mu Yunting got up early, he still had to go to the morning court, and he finished the unfinished recital last night early, he had a lot of things.

And Xu Lianyi also got up after Mu Yunting left the room, in fact, she knew what happened last night, but she didn't know how she should face it, she was very angry with Mu Yunting's actions.

"Someone. Xu Lianyi called out loudly.

Huiyu was still napping at the door, no, as soon as she heard Xu Lianyi's call, she quickly got up from the door and came to Xu Lianyi.

"Queen Mother, you got up so early today, the slave maid will help you fetch water and freshen up. ”

Xu Lianyi smiled and said, "It's okay, you can take your time." The palace is going to find Her Royal Highness the princess today, so there is no hurry. ”

"Yes. Hui Yu is strange, although Xu Lianyi also has a small gathering with Mulan on weekdays, she has never woken up so early.

After Xu Lianyi had breakfast, she asked Miaoyu and Huiyu to clean up for her, and then went out to find Mulan.

Mu Lan was lazy, and when Xu Lianyi arrived at the place where Mu Lan lived, Mu Lan was still resting on her bed, and the little palace maid saw that the queen was coming, so she had the courage to call Mu Lan up.

"The Queen Mother came really early today. Mulan yawned and stretched lazily a little.

Xu Lianyi sighed, her face was sad, and she was a little puzzled: "I came to you because I wanted to ask you something." ”

Mu Lanji was curious, she smiled, approached Xu Lianyi, and then smacked her tongue and said, "I know, I must have quarreled with the emperor." ”

"Almost. Xu Lianyi was a little helpless, and then explained, "Yesterday we went back to the palace, and Qiao Jingyuan was very bold to provoke me. Before this, she would never dare. ”

Then, Xu Lianyi told Mu Lanji what happened yesterday completely, and after finishing speaking, she continued: "I'm a little angry now, alas. ”

Mu Lanji frowned, she left the palace yesterday because she had something to do, so she didn't go to the palace gate to welcome the two back, and she didn't know about these things, but just after listening to what Xu Lianyi said, Mu Lanji felt that some places were very strange.

"Xu Lianyi, I think this Qiao Jingyuan is very abnormal, but I don't know much about her, mainly depends on what you think. Mu Lanji had a guess in her heart, but she was not sure yet, if Xu Lianyi thought the same as she thought, then her guess should be correct.

"Actually, I also think that Qiao Jingyuan was very abnormal yesterday, she is a Jieyu, even if she dresses so outstandingly, she is still arguing with me in public, which is abnormal. Xu Lianyi sighed.

Mu Lanji smiled when he heard this, and continued, "Since you think so too, then I'll say it. Qiao Jingyuan didn't know how to collect his tail, he was so arrogant, probably because of some action in Qiao Guogong's mansion. It's better for you to be careful. ”

Xu Lianyi and Mu Lan reminisced about the old days, and left at noon.

And just three days later, Xu Mingde followed the map he got and walked out of the long tunnel with a large group of people, but when he got out of the tunnel, the whole person was blinded, and he quickly asked his subordinates to send a letter to Xu Lianyi and Mu Yunting, why did they come out of the Dongjiang River.

When Xu Lianyi received the words, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and then shook her head, Xu Mingde was still a little too young, and he didn't understand any of this.

The next morning, when Xu Mingde saw Xu Lianyi's reply, he smiled happily, sure enough, he still needs to experience. It's a pity that he ignored the past like this.

It turned out that Xu Lianyi believed that since it was the Dongjiang River that came out of the tunnel mouth, the first place that needed to be searched was the Dongjiang River. Because by the time the grain thieves came out of such a long tunnel, they were already exhausted, and they wanted to carry so many things around.

"All of them are ordered, let me go down to the river and look carefully to see if there is any food. As soon as Xu Mingde's order came out, his subordinates went out one after another, and no one was complaining, I have to say that Xu Mingde is very capable in terms of management.

It didn't take long for a man who had been looking in the Dongjiang River for a long time to get up, he raised his hands above his head, carried a bag of grain, and shouted excitedly: "Head, my subordinates have found a bag of grain!"

"Very good! Go on, don't let up, find a good job as soon as possible!"

Xu Mingde took the bag of grain, opened the grain, and found that the grain in it had been finished, he sighed, it seems that the grain in this river is unpredictable.

Half a day later, everyone found the food they could find, and as Xu Mingde expected, the food was all wet.

That night, Mu Yunting and Xu Lianyi received news that they had found food, but the food had been completely soaked by the water of the Dongjiang River, and it was probably useless. The two immediately decided that they should go to the Dongjiang River the next day to see what was going on and come up with a solution.

So, early the next morning, Mu Yunting and Xu Lianyi got up early, and the two came to Dongjiang in a carriage.

Although Xu Mingde is Xu Lianyi's younger brother, Xu Lianyi's identity is different now, and when he sees Xu Lianyi, Xu Mingde's etiquette must still be in place.

"The minister has seen the emperor, the queen's mother. Xu Mingde saluted, and the soldiers led after his death also saluted together.

"Get up. Mu Yunting raised his hand slightly, without delay, and asked directly about the grain, "Where is the grain now?"

"Back to the emperor, yesterday afternoon, the minister had someone borrow their yard from a peasant household next to the Dongjiang River and dried the grain in the yard. ”

"Oh?" Mu Yunting nodded with satisfaction, the news he got last night didn't write this, it seems that he can still know what to do first.

Xu Lianyi is also very satisfied with her younger brother, she doesn't bother her much, and when she is in this position, she also strives for herself, and she almost does not contribute behind her back.

"You take me and the emperor to see it first, and then we can see it first. Xu Lianyi called with a smile.

Xu Mingde nodded and led the two to the farmer's house.

As soon as the peasant saw the clothes of the two, he knew that the other party's identity was extraordinary, and it seemed that the person who came to borrow his yard last afternoon was still an official master. This made him very flustered, rubbing his hands and not knowing what to do.

Seeing the farmer like this, Xu Mingde cleared his throat and helped to speak: "Don't hurry up and salute, I've seen the emperor and queen!"

The peasant family was even more panicked, and stammered, the emperor and the queen? This is an existence that a person like him has never seen in his life, and now he has appeared in his house all at once, which is a miracle!

Xu Lianyi and Mu Yunting looked at each other, and then, Xu Lianyi helped the farmer up and said, "Uncle, don't be too nervous. Borrowed the location of your home and we all appreciated it. Hurry up. ”

"Yes! "The farmer is a little excited, the queen mother has helped herself, this life is already worth it!

"Uncle, is all the grain they put here yesterday?" Xu Lianyi knew that Mu Yunting couldn't speak, so she took the initiative to ask.

The farmer nodded, and then he said: "These grains are actually edible, although they have been wet with water, but as long as they still want, they can still be eaten after drying." ”

When Xu Lianyi heard these words, she raised her eyebrows, looked at Mu Yunting, and after receiving the signal, she continued to ask: "Are you sure, uncle, can you still eat these grains?"

The old man smiled, the corners of his mouth suddenly opened, and he was very confident: "If you talk about the rest, the grass people are not sure, but when it comes to food, the grass people must be sure." ”
