104 Lord, I'm afraid the third sister is interested in you
Mu Xian wanted to refute his speculation, but after thinking about it, she felt that the rebuttal would only make her mind more exposed. She could only hate, "You have guessed everyone's thoughts."
"Otherwise, how can I grow up alone in the royal family?" Qin Yu took her words casually.
On the contrary, Mu Xi was stunned and put his hands behind him tightly together, "That's right. The only stupid person in this royal family is Princess Zhaohua. He is arrogant and rude, and doesn't know how to restrain his edge at all, and then he will die such a tragic death. Her tone is still stable, but she can still hear a little grief and self-deprecating.
Qin Yu turned around and stared at her soft face. "After this morning, Su Heyu went to the Qianqing Palace to see the emperor in person with a gloomy face. Half an hour later, Su Heyu came out of the Qianqing Palace, and his face was obviously much more relaxed. It can be seen that the emperor did not investigate him much, but now I'm afraid that many people will have to investigate the death of Princess Zhaohua.
Princes Zhaohua's death was mentioned on the surface, and the emperor can't investigate it now.
"You didn't waste your time." Qin Yu rarely said a word of appreciation.
Mu Xiran's exquisite facial features suddenly smiled, "Yes, I could have lived a stable life alone in Yifu, and someone would have cleaned up Wanfei. But as they wished, I went into the palace and turned up the matter of Princess Zhaohua little by little, making the queen and the prince suspicious, and even forcing the emperor to send someone to find out the truth.
This time, Mu Xian still showed such a clear smile, but there was no dark plan. She stared at the direction of Jingren Palace and then said, "The more chaotic things are, the more unable to control the situation as an outsider. I want to see how Chu Luo deals with these branches and weeds.
The white palm held the weak flower branch, and as soon as the wrist was turned over, a delicate peony flower was picked off. Under the shining sunlight, the woman quietly played with the petals in her hand and did not destroy them. Instead, she threw the flowers directly on the roadside not far away.
As soon as the flowers fell, a shadow covered them. Mu Xiyan raised his bright eyes and looked at the people coming.
"Uncle Wang." The fifth prince nod faintly, and his face was full of respect.
Mu Nianqing Yingying next to the fifth prince looked at the man opposite. She had rarely seen Prince Jing'an so closely before, but she didn't expect that the prince was not inferior to any prince. On the contrary, she was more calm and more exciting than them.
Mu Xiran stared at the change of Mu Nian's eyes, and somehow suddenly laughed. He looked at Qin Yu and said directly, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the third sister is interested in you." After saying that, it was still difficult to hide the smile in his eyes.
Qin Yu raised his sword eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, and his eyes became more condensed, but his tone was particularly spoiled: "You girl just like to talk nonsense."
Such an intimate tone shocked the Fifth Prince and Mu Nianqing. Neither of them expected that King Jing'an would spoil Mu Xiran so much. Mu Nianqing, in particular, is even more uncomfortable. But he still smiles shyly,
"The second sister likes to laugh. Nianqing doesn't like to think different thoughts.
No matter what Mu Nianqing's mouth meant, Mu Xiyan ignored it. She turned her head slightly, and her side face became softer and softer, like a secluded blooming under the bright sun, with a noble atmosphere that she should not have in her life.
The fifth prince glanced at Mu Xiran, who was motionless, and was even more disgusted, so he exhorred King Jing'an, "Uncle Wang, it's enough for this woman to seduce the second prince in the palace. Now she is with Uncle Wang, which shows that she has bad intentions."
"Android, why can't I take care of it?" In front of others, King Jing'an is a little majestic in his introvertedness.
Mu Nianqing gently pulled the sleeves of the fifth prince, "Android, don't say that about the second sister. She has her own grievances." He frowned, as if his heart was defending Mu Xiyan.
How could Mu Xilan not understand her mind? He just followed her words and said, "There are no pains, but there are many grievances."
At this time, the corners of the fifth prince's eyebrows showed a little urgency. After punching at King Jing'an, he hurried away with Mu Nianqing.
Mu Xijian looked at their backs and couldn't help sighing, "They are obviously biological sisters, but they can't get along well. They seem to be strangers when they meet... Even strangers are better than this enemy."
King Jing'an's lips sank and patted her on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, "How can you cherish family affection without experiencing life and death?" Just like him, he fought bravely on the battlefield in his early years. He was used to seeing the soldiers around him lose their lives, and he cherished the hard-won family affection more and more. Unfortunately... He shook his head helplessly. Maybe he was born alone.
"Well, what do you do with these? Pingbai was sad and no one saw it. Mu Xian rolled her lips and smiled again, "It's time for me to go back. You can enjoy the flowers alone. It's better not to get tired of this peony garden like me.
Qin Yu indulged in his eyes and nodded.
Not far from Kunning Palace, Mu Xiran trotted with his skirt and returned to his room. When he entered the door, he asked, "Nianhua, can you send the almond porridge you made today to Qianqing Palace?"
"Don't worry, I'm not as reckless as before." Squinting and smiling calmly, Nianhua turned worried again, "Miss, I'm worried that the emperor will not like today's almond porridge. After all, I just learned to make it and haven't started it yet. And it tastes completely different from the previous almond porridge.
Mu Xiran calmly sat in front of the bronze mirror, pinched a delicate golden cup, dragged his cheeks and looked carefully, "The emperor always drinks the almond porridge of the past, and there are always times when he is greasy. Therefore, you should change your taste as soon as possible. The master in the imperial dining room has figured out the emperor's taste and will only like the taste you.
Nianhua nodded thoughtfully, and then his eyes lit up, "Miss, recently I found that Nan Meng of Jingren Palace also often goes to the imperial dining room. But when the maidservant went, Nan Meng just left.
It is normal for the concubine favored by the emperor to send the palace maid to make some small stoves in the imperial dining room, but it is a little strange at this time. No matter what, she should beware of it.
Mu Xiruan put the golden broom back into the jewelry box and ordered, "You still go to the imperial dining room, and you still ask the master for advice. However, you can make the hot porridge sent to the emperor in Kunning Palace. Borrow the stove and make one for the queen by the way.
The three maids in Kunning Palace are all empresses and will never be bought, and the imperial dining room is hard to say.
After lunch, Mu Xiyan waited for the queen to sleep and went back to the house to take a nap. When he fell asleep, he heard bursts of laughter from the main hall. Mu Xiyan asked in amazed, "But who came?"
"It's the second lady of Su's house and the two ladies under her knees." Nianhua handed over Jinpa.
Mu Xian cleaned his face and entered the main hall. Sure enough, he saw Mrs. Su sitting on both sides, as well as the fourth lady Su Heyou and the fifth lady Su Hewei. Mu Xiruan went straight to the queen.
Mrs Su's eyes turned and saw her, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen Miss Xiyan for a long time. It's really more and more public."
Su's second wife Yu and Defei are sisters. Because they were born in the general family, they are a little more cheerful than others.
Mu Xian was a little flattered when he heard the words and hurriedly bowed, "The second lady praised it."
"I'm telling the truth. Besides, I'm afraid it's very difficult for Miss Xi's quiet nature in this palace." Mrs. Su was unpretentious and showed some envy, "The Empress is really blessed."
The Empress pointed to the two ladies sitting with a smile and stared at Mrs. Su angrily, "You are talking nonsense. There are two intimate daughters around you. Do you still envy me? I'm not that easy to fool." He sighed gently, "The eldest lady is not confused by you. She sent both daughters to the palace."
Speaking of the eldest lady, the second lady just smiled helplessly, "The eldest sister is too competitive."
The queen frowned inadvertently, "It's rare to be happy today. Don't mention her." He looked sideways at Mu Xilan and said, "They haven't come to the palace for a long time. You take them out for a walk. I said a few words to the second lady.
Mu Xiyan bowed his knees when he heard the words, "Yes, Madam."
The second lady told the two, "You should learn more about admiring girls, and don't be reckless in the palace. Go quickly."
After leaving Kunning Palace, Mu Xiqi asked directly, "I don't know where the two ladies are going?"
Unexpectedly, Su and You came enthusiastically and took Mu Xi'an's arm, "Sister Xi'an, don't be so polite. We'll all listen to you." Pulling Lasu and Wei's sleeves, "Isn't it, sister?"
Su Hewei is still so timid and afraid, "Yes."
Peony Garden, Mu Xian doesn't want to go anymore, and there is only the Royal Garden after thinking about it. So she took the two to the imperial garden, and Su and You kept talking on the way.
Although the scorching sun has moved westward, the weather is still very sultry. After a while, a few people's foreheads sweated. When they reached the moon gate of the imperial garden, Su and You couldn't wait to pull them in and go to a bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest in the imperial garden is a good place to enjoy the cool in summer, so you can meet many people here to enjoy the cool.
Mu Xilang looked at several concubines sitting in the depths of the bamboo forest, and there happened to be a nobleman Yue and Su Chang, and the other two were tattoo concubines and snow concubines. Four people sat around the wooden pier drinking tea and talking.
The tattoo concubine saw several people with sharp eyes and waved quickly, "It's just right that you also come to sit down. This is the only place in this palace that is quiet and cool.
It's true that it's cool, but quiet is not the only one. Mu Xi ran also couldn't refuse, so he had to walk over. Wen and Xue are both second-class concubines, and Mu Xilang will sit down after saluteing the two.
"Why did the fourth sister and the fifth sister come to the palace today, but what's the matter?" Su and Zisu often don't look at them, blowing the tea powder in the teacup, and their tone is still as proud as usual.
