Chapter 2 Going Home
"Nuanyu, how is the situation at home?" There is no news from Mo Ning in the cold palace. Her father is over half a hundred years old. She is afraid that the Mo family will be implicated because of her. Her father is very old and upright. Does he still have to be excluded by the slang ministers in the court?
Nuanyu frowned and looked at Mo Ning's little face, "Miss, I heard that the master is sick, and I haven't been in court for half a month."
When Mo Ning heard Nuan Yu say this, he thought it was not good. It must be her father because she had an argument with Zhong Xuan. Dad once exchanged military charms for her. He insisted on not letting go. She insisted on not leaving. Mo Yan returned disappointed and never again. He never appeared...
Thinking about her father's love for her when she was a child, but now she can't help but feel sad because she is involved in the prosperity of the whole Mo family...
No, she can't wait for dawn so quietly. She entered the palace selfishly, but now she can no longer retreat selfishly.
"Warm jade, prepare hot water to bathe and change clothes, follow me to the emperor"
Hearing her say this, the warm jade was happy, and her face became excited. She quickly ran out to the yard to find nameless boiling water.
"Miss, what kind of clothes are you wearing?" Nuanyu pointed to those extremely luxurious clothes and still looked happy.
Mo Ning's eyes were dim. Looking at those colorful clothes, she knew that Zhong Xuanyu had given her a lot of things, but she hated the tediousness and never chose those gorgeous clothes.
Now, does she also want to put on a vain shell to beg him?
Mo Ning smiled bitterly. What do you still care about now? She chose a bright purple robe, coiled her long hair and put on a heavy headdress.
Nuan Yu pulled her to the mirror, and she just felt that she was almost unable to recognize herself. Especially the phoenix crown, she almost couldn't raise her head. She couldn't help laughing at herself. Zhong Xuanyu, would you like me like this?
"Your Majesty, I just found out that the emperor has just gone down and is enjoying flowers in the imperial garden." The nameless said outside the door.
"Okay, let's go to the Royal Garden!"
When Mo Ning came to the Royal Garden, he remembered that he and Zhong Xuanyu were playing kites on the lawn when they first entered the palace. He would give her the kite high and run with her. As soon as he let go, she couldn't run. As soon as she lay down, the kite fell down. He will laugh and call her stupid.
When she remembered that she couldn't put it up several times a day, she looked at him with a smile, and the sweat oozed from his face in the sun was shining. She reached out to wipe his sweat, but he thought she was going to hit him. He grabbed her hand and put it on his mouth and bit it...
Now when she comes to this lawn, Zhong Xuanyu is hugging a woman. The kite at her feet burns her eyes. She can't bear to look carefully and hook her lips coldly. Why is she not tired of these same tricks? She must not be the first or the last...
She walked over and leisurely, without hesitation, and deliberately amplified her voice, "I want to see the emperor!"
Zhong Xuanyu turned around when he heard the sound and saw Mo Ning squatting and saluted ten feet away from him. His expression became a little flustered, and he quickly restrained his mood and let go of the concubine in his arms. "Fang body."
Mo Ning stood up steadily and looked directly at him. In fact, she didn't know what to look at him. I'm afraid that my expression looks like an abandoned jealous woman, so I try to calm down.
Ning Fei next to Zhong Xuanyu looked at her with contempt. Is this the queen who has been to the cold palace? The emperor doesn't spoil her anymore. How can she be so arrogant?
"Your Majesty, Ning'er's kite hasn't been set yet!" Concubine Ning pouted and took his arm and shook it gently.
Mo Ning frowned slightly and kept calm in his heart.
"Since the emperor has something important to do, it's good for me to wait." Mo Ning's voice was extremely soft. After saying that, he got up and stepped back a little and turned his back.
Zhong Xuanyu looked at the thin back, and the high-profile purple seemed to stab his sight. He knew that she never liked to wear it like this. He was immediately annoyed. Didn't you feel uncomfortable when he saw me with other women?
When I learned that you and my sixth brother were playing against each other, I didn't come back all night. I waited for you all night, and I was so sick that I quarreled and put you into the cold palace?
Why, she won't be jealous or sad! She has really changed. Doesn't he have to be afraid of loneliness as the world? Zhong Xuanyu thought about it and grabbed Concubine Ning's wrist. He was so angry that he forgot his strength. It was not until he heard Ning Ye's delicate cry that he came to his senses.
"Queen, what's the matter with you?" He couldn't see the change in her expression and hugged Ningfei's soft body with dissatisfaction.
Mo Ning turned around and lowered his head slightly without looking at him. "Please allow me to go home to visit my father."
"It's accurate. Go back and have a rest. In this way, it will affect the mood of me and Ning Fei. Zhong Xuanyu glanced at her thin body, and her tone was as calm as possible. He pretended not to care and didn't look at her again.
Mo Ning didn't know how she left. She only knew that she couldn't leave too fast. She was afraid that the person would see her vulnerability, and the scene in her heart would not dissipate for a long time. She gently told herself that she was not afraid and would go home, and then walked like a puppet.
What my sister said is really right. The emperor is ruthless...
Back to Fengluan Hall, Nuanyu called her, but she didn't say anything. Just sitting quietly with Xuan'er in his arms.
When the evening meal came, Nuan Yu picked up vegetables for her and muttered that she could go back to the prime minister's house tomorrow. Mo Ning knew that she was anxious about her sister in the original house. Just laugh and don't say a word. Everything I eat is like chewing wax. There is no taste. I was hurt by that person in my heart. In the end, I only ate two mouthfuls of porridge and couldn't move my chopsticks.
Nuanyu nagging that she was too thin and ate too little. She still laughs, no matter how miserable her smile is in the eyes of others.
It's night, and Mo Ning can't sleep. I couldn't help putting on my cloak and going to the yard to breathe.
"Mother, why don't you sleep?" Looking at the woman bathed in the moonlight, it was simply beautiful. My heart beat much faster.
"I like this night. It's so quiet that there is only the moon, so that it seems that avoiding harm can be happy and worry-free." Mo Ning looked at the moon. The sound is ethereal like the sound of nature. She is not used to calling herself this palace, and she never wants to call herself this palace.
Standing beside her and looking at her, as if he felt that he was in a beautiful whirlpool. He knew that Mo Ning was worried about how to treat his family when he returned to the prime minister's house tomorrow. Because she is no longer the daughter who can bring glory to them.
At the beginning, she insisted on going to the palace for her sister, but it became like this. If she was complained, it would be fine. If no one complained about her, she would be even more guilty and wanted to die.
She is just an 18-year-old girl. No matter how deep the troubles are hidden, there is no way to forget them. Thinking of this, I feel sorry for her. However, this woman is different from others. She regards dignity more important than her life, so he doesn't say anything. He just stands quietly with her for a long time... The moonlight is cold, but Mo Ning feels more and more at ease.
Early in the morning, Nuan Yu shouted Mo Ning up. She got up and began to dress up. She was not energetic, so Nuan Yu persuaded her in a soft voice.
"Miss, it's a happy thing to go home. Don't be sad, or they will worry about you."
Mo Ning hummed casually, thinking of his father who loved him, and his eyebrows were more luxurious.
I don't know where to find a very expensive carriage, but at this time, there are only her and Nuanyu. No matter how big and beautiful the carriage is, it can't hide her shabbyness.
She only smiled and said nothing, and I don't know when she began to care about other people's feelings? After laughing, he went straight into the carriage.
The nameless horse stood on the horse. When they left the palace, the imperial army stopped them, "Who is in the car?"
"Bold, the Queen goes home to visit relatives, how dare she stop her?" The nameless scolded, which was a little more majestic than those horse soldiers.
In the carriage, Mo Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at Nuan Yu's inexplicable smile. His voice sounded, "The nameless aura is not like a mortal."
Nuan Yu also nodded excitedly, "Miss, I have seen the nameless practice martial arts hard at ordinary times!" But I don't know what's the use of a eunin practicing martial arts?
"If it weren't for the eunuch, would you follow him?" Mo Ning looked at the warm jade red face with a funny smile.
"Miss!"
Mo Ning covered his mouth and smiled, and his mood was much more relaxed and happy. He pushed open the curtain of the carriage window with a slender hand. Looking at the bustling scene on the street, it's like a different world!
It took half an hour for the carriage to stop in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The warm jade helped her get out of the car. Mo Ning looked at the scene in front of her. The scenery of the past had dissipated, and today's prime minister's house can be called a door-to-door finch.
There was no one outside the door, and the servants who watched the door disappeared. Looking at this scene, she walked up with wet eyes and anxiously to buckle the door. The doorkeeper always opened the door. He took a look at Mo Ning's wet forehead and eyes, and quickly blessed himself. "Two... No, Madam, you're back, I'll inform the master right now."
The remaining heartfelt servants all looked at her with sympatheting faces, thinking that they had an argument with their father about entering the palace and had not returned for more than half a year.
I really don't know each other, and some newcomers are still asking who this is?
"This is the second lady, the queen"
"I heard that I just came out of the cold palace a few days ago!"
After Nuan Yu heard this, she stared at them angrily, and then they were silent.
Mo Ning doesn't want to listen to those messy comments, and she doesn't care about it. Now she just wants to see her father, the man who spoils her.
The old housekeeper sighed and withdrew from the house. After closing the door, he looked at Mo Ning with an embarrassed face and hesitated not knowing what to say.
"It's OK to put it bluntly." Suddenly, there was a bad feeling in Mo Ning's heart, and even his voice trembled slightly.
The old housekeeper looked at her with pity in his eyes. He sighed and lowered his head again, "The master said, no, please go back."
"What? Why didn't Dad see me?" She and Nuanyu stood outside the door. Now there is only one door between the father and daughter. Mo Ning's hand gently grabbed the old housekeeper's arm, his voice trembled, and his eyes also looked at the closed door with tears.
"The master said that you insisted on going to the palace at that time. Since the day he returned home, your father-daughter relationship has been exhausted.
The old housekeeper looked embarrassed and couldn't bear to say more heartbreaking words.
These words beat her heart like a whip, and it was painful. She knelt down weakly, and Nuan Yu quickly knelt down with her. The floor was cold and piercing, and she ignored it. Now the two women are sobbing in front of the door without saying a word, and the old housekeeper can't stand it. She hurried to help Mo Ning, "Queen, what are you doing?"
Mo Ning ignored him, pushed his hand away, cried silently, and looked at the door without giving up. The old housekeeper sighed and went in again.
The old housekeeper looked at the people in the room with a sad face, "Sir, Miss, kneels at the door."
He seemed to have expected it for a long time and sighed. That's all right. Tell her to come in. Mo Yan was half lying on the collapse, and his voice was full of vicissitudes. After hearing this, Mo Ning quickly stood up and lowered his head into the room, stepped forward and knelt down again.
She looked at his deep-locked eyebrows. The two of them had not seen each other in just half a year. His face was already haggard, and his hair on his temples had turned gray. Mo Ning saw his high-headed father become like this, and his heart was so painful.
Now, there are only two people left in the room. Mo Ning stopped her tears and squeezed her lips without saying a word.
"Ninger, have you ever regretted it?" Mo Yan had a hoarse voice, with an indescribable sadness.
