223 As long as the second lady is a monk
Mu Xian protected her lower abdomen with her hands and smiled softly. "Anyway, I still thank you."
She woke up when Jun Anran rescued her from the bodyguard and realized Jun Anran's intention. Her eyes were full of emotion, guilt and unknown emotions.
In the previous life, they were brothers and sisters. At that time, all the brothers loved themselves in every way, except Jun Anran.
In this life, they are men and women without blood, but Jun Anran fell in love with her at first sight, the pain of love, and the torture of love.
You're right. I should choose to leave. In this way, I can still think about you in the distance. Jun An's tough facial features showed endless sadness, but his tone was much relieved. He put the reins around his wrist and turned over the horse. " Take care."
A horse went away.
Mu Xi ran and watched the horse disappear on the winding official road, and the corners of her mouth slowly drew a little smile.
When the spring breeze blew, Mu Xian withdrew her eyes and looked down at her toes. She adjusted all her emotions and began to return to the gate. In her previous life and present life, she rarely walked alone like this, and she did not feel that her mood would settle down.
When Qin Yu hurried out of the gate, he saw Mu Xilan walking alone. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, raised the corners of his mouth and quickly stepped forward and stopped her, "Xilan."
Mu Xiran's raised eyes were full of softness, "Master, is it all over?" There was a slight uncertainty in his tone.
Qin Yu took her into his arms with heartache, hugged her fiercely, and his eyes were gentle. "It's all over."
That night, the two returned to the Jing'an Palace and learned that the second room had been moved out, and there was only one person left in the big room. Mu Xian did not show any expression on his face when he heard the words, which was expected.
"Madam, the second lady of the Mu family wants to see you." Nianhua looked carefully at Mu Xi's face.
Because of the defeat of Princess Shu, the original mansion was raided, and the Mu Mansion did not escape. This afternoon, Mu Qingyang was imprisoned in prison, and the consequences can be imagined. The second lady of the Mu family can still come over with audacity. Mu Xilan is really a little surprised.
"Let her come in." They are all Mu's family, and she doesn't want to do too much.
Compared with the previous flowery second lady, the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes of today's second lady are clearly visible, and the pink brocade shirt has been washed white, and she looks old.
The second lady slowly raised her head and looked at Mu Xi'an. Her eyes touched the luxurious decorations in the room. Her eyes flashed with obvious greed and jealousy. However, under Mu Xi's cold eyes, she lowered her head again and knelt down to Mu Xi'an. "Princess, my concubine beg the princess to save the master... Master will be beheaded the day after tomorrow. ."
"Second lady, do you think it's useful to come and beg me?" There was no hesitation between Mu Xiran's words.
"Princess, I know that I am deeply guilty and can't compensate for the damage to you or make up for the mistakes I have made. However, the master is the father of the princess. No matter how much the princess hates the concubine, she will save the master for the face of the eldest lady..." With that, the second lady bowed to Mu Xi and said deeply emotionally.
Mu Xi ran his face tightly, fiddled with the tea cup on the table, pulled out a cold smile at the corners of his mouth, and said softly, "Second Lady, I haven't answered my question yet."
Then the second lady raised her face again and looked at Mu Xiran's cold face. She trembling and said, "I don't think the princess is a cruel person, and she will definitely save the master."
"It's a pity that the second lady still guessed my mind wrong." Mu Xiran fiddled with the tea cup, making a crisp collision sound. Under the second lady's stunned eyes, she waved her palm and waved the best porcelain to the ground. "If the second lady kneels on it, maybe I will be kind and forgive Mu Qingyang."
The second lady bit her white lips and suppressed her inner anger, "Princess, the master is your father."
"Dad? I have never felt my father's love over the years! He let me lose my mother, let me die alone in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, let me let you favored people bully me, and even repeatedly treat me as a pawn..." Mu Xiran suddenly opened her lips and turned to a smile,
"In my heart, I have never had a father. So... second lady, please come back."
In the face of Mu Xi'an's questions, the second lady was speechless and could not refute it, but she couldn't help but see Mufu fell down. What's the point of fighting for the right position all her life? How could she live without Mu Qingyang? Thinking of this, the second lady thought of her only daughter.
"What about Nianqing? The princess can always let her go." Mu Nianqing is her last support.
"Yes, as long as the second lady is a monk and stays at the Yinyue Temple in Xiangcheng, I will let Mu Nianqing go. How about letting her accompany you back to Xiangcheng? Mu Xi looked at the second lady's gradually turning blue face, and for a moment, she couldn't guess what kind of answer the second lady would give.
It's killing her to become a monk. The more the second lady thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her whole life's efforts were all in vain. The position of the head mother of the family was gone, and the position of Mrs. Mu Xiran really stepped on her painful foot.
For most of the day, the second lady did not respond, and Mu Xiyan waved her hand impatiently, "Since the second lady has no sincerity, then leave quickly."
"I promise. As long as the princess puts Nianqing back, I will take Nianqing back to Xiangcheng. The second lady finally made a compromise.
After the second lady left, Nan Shi raised her fist a little angrily and said, "Why did the lady let the second lady and the third lady go so easily and let them go? Don't you worry that the second lady will go back on her point?"
Mu Xian smiled faintly and stroked his lower abdomen without answering Nanshi's words.
The Mu Mansion is gone, the original mansion is gone, and the Noble Concubine Shu is gone. The second lady is just planning to have no backing. What's more, if you can't do too much, there will always be a little more warmth if you leave a little room.
Then, Qin Yu took Mu Xiran back to Beizhuang in the suburbs, and as Mu Xiran's stomach became bigger day by day, Qin Yi began to strictly control her and prevent her from leaving the other courtyard, let alone allow her to walk around in the other courtyard. Even Chu Yinruo and the crown princess came to visit her. Qin Yu reluctantly agreed.
Five months later, this day is the hot season, and the advantage is that it is not too sultry in other courtyards halfway up the mountain.
On the bamboo chair under the vine, Mu Xiran lay on his stomach for nine months, and couldn't even turn over. Nianhua and Nanxiao next to him wiped their foreheads while fanning.
Chu Yin, sitting on the stone chair, peeled off the grape skin, pinched the crystal clear grapes and handed them to Mu Xiran's mouth, "Eat quickly. Sweet and sour is in your current appetite.
Mu Xi'an didn't give a face to face, "I don't like to eat."
"Sure enough, people with a body have a bad temper. Xian, such a well-behaved person, will lose his temper. Chu Yin shook his head and stuffed the grapes into his mouth. Unexpectedly, before he closed his mouth, he was jumped up by the sour taste. "Who sent the grapes? It's so sour! It's so sour."
Nianhua and Nanxiao met and smiled. Nan Shi covered his mouth and said proudly, "I have long said that you can't eat what Shi sent. The sixth imperial concubine still wants to eat... Now you know that you regret it.
"Bah, at least this is also the territory of Prince Jing'an. Shifu dares to send such a bad thing. When I get back to the capital, I must ask Lord Shi what he is thinking. After Chu Yinuo finished speaking, he quickly took a teapot and poured a few mouths into his mouth before rushing away the strong sour taste.
Mu Xi'an laughed and said, "Only Shifu has vines in this city, and it has been married early this year. Mrs. Shi also sent it here kindly. You dare not fool around.
Chu Yinruo also knew that he had been 'nonsense' too much these days, and he quickly curled his lips.
However, the brief silence here was broken again, and Xiu Yueying came in. "I heard the laughter here from afar. If there is anything happy, tell me."
Chu Yin pouted and came to Xiuyue. "It's not that they have been making fun of me." Then he pulled Xiuyue and said coquettishly, "Sister Xiuyue, I heard that you have prepared a lot of clothes for the child in Xi's belly. Why don't you prepare them for me? I'm so jealous."
"Ah?" Xiuyue subconsciously glanced at Chu Yin's stomach, paused for a moment, and said with a smile, "I'll prepare it for you next time you have a body."
Under the vine, Nan Shi helped Mu Xiran get up. Mu Xiran said leisurely, "I don't sure, Xiuyue should be ready now."
Chu Yinruo didn't understand it at the beginning. When she saw Xiuyue bowing her head and smiling, she suddenly understood. In an instant, she blushed her cheeks and ran to Mu Xiran's side to beat her. "You know how to make fun of me."
Nan Shi quickly stretched out his hand to stop Chu Yinruo's fist, "Imperial concubine, you have to be very careful."
"I know, my Nan girl." Chu Yinruo sat next to Mu Xilan and reached out to touch her stomach.
Mu Xilan turned to Xiuyue and casually asked, "Today, why didn't Chu Chen follow me?"
"Yes, yes, he hasn't been pestering you. Why don't you see him today? Chu Yinruo was also interested.
Since Chu Chen and Xiuyue met in the attic of the royal palace, Chu Chen has been pestering Xiuyue, so that the two left together that time. After that, Chu Chen has been following the embroidery moon. Over time, the two have feelings between them, and they are preparing to have a wedding these days.
"On the way here, he was called away by the prince." Xiuyue looks much better now.
At this time, Mu Xilan suddenly felt a pain in her body, and it was the pain of tearing. She grabbed Chu Yinruo's wrist and sweated coldly on her forehead. "Pain! It hurts so much... Go, go and call the midwife."
