Mo Xuetong stared at the painting for a while and muttered a few words to himself. Because Mo Lan stood close, he could hear what Mo Xuetong muttered: "How is it possible? How is it possible?"
She didn't understand what the princess meant. She turned her head and looked at the painting. She didn't see anything, so she asked softly: "Princess, what did you find?"
Suppressing the suffocating pain in her chest, Mo Xuetong took another deep breath and signaled Mo Lan to put down the scroll in her hand: "I'll lie down for a while."
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Mo Lan nodded, straightened up the scrolls by himself, and asked Mo Yu to move the original scrolls to another place. He sat by the window and sewed, and the room suddenly became quiet.
An incredible idea formed crazily in Mo Xuetong's heart. This idea was not only unbelievable, but also unacceptable to her. She repeatedly suppressed the rush of energy and blood in her heart, and then slowly calmed down. Qin Mansion, she must return the favor. Go, Mrs. Qin may be the breakthrough, or Qin Yufeng knows something. Of course, she must find someone to inquire about the Duke Fu's mansion, skipping her grandmother.
She was already weak, so after thinking about it for a while, she felt dizzy, and in a daze, she actually fell asleep.
She woke up to a soft whisper.
"Mo Lan, if the princess is not awake yet, why don't you go and call her? Madam Lian has been waiting for a while. It will not be good if she waits any longer." Mo Yu said in a brisk voice.
"It's okay. If the princess doesn't wake up after a while, just wake her up. Let her sleep for a while now. She hasn't slept for long." Mo Lan said in a calm and steady voice.
"Is this okay? We've been here for a while." Mo Yu asked uneasily.
"Last time Mrs. Lian brought Yu Mingyong into the palace and caused such a big fuss, she almost ruined the princess' reputation. Let her wait for a while and let her understand that this is the palace and not just anyone can come in if they want. Those who come in, please don’t hold yourself back, Mrs. Shangshu, and ignore the princess." Mo Lan said calmly.
These words were in line with Mo Xuetong's meaning.
This Mrs. Lian has always had a good reputation among the ladies. Her husband-in-law has become one of the best in the court at a young age. It is the time when the spring breeze is proud. Therefore, when the Yu Mingyong incident happened last time, she just stood aside and complained that he was wronged. , but had no intention of coming up to plead guilty. He probably wanted to apologize to Mo Xuetong alone when there were few people around, so as not to be embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Feng Juoran would take Mo Xuetong away as soon as the banquet was over.
She actually missed an opportunity to apologize to Mo Xuetong in person, and this time she should be here to make up for it.
This Madam Lian seemed to be scheming, but she only used her scheming on herself.
"Mo Lan." She whispered and stood up.
"It's great that the princess is awake." Mo Yu reacted immediately and jumped over to report, "Princess, that Madam Lian came to the house and said she wanted to apologize to you and brought some gifts."
"How long has she been here?" Mo Xuetong held Mo Lan's hand and sat up, took the warm water she handed over, took a sip to moisten her throat, and then asked.
"I've been here for half an hour. I saw that the princess was sleeping soundly, so I didn't call you. However, it's been half an hour now. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate if I didn't call you again." Mo Yu was not actually worried about Mrs. Lian sitting there. It's been a long time, and speaking of it, she doesn't have the slightest fondness for this Mrs. Lian. She seems to be gentle and gentle to others, and she has a good way of talking. However, she didn't expect to act so out of control, and she even brought in a libertine like this. .
If it weren't for the fact that she was also a first-class lady and it was not good to keep her in the dark, she wouldn't have urged Mo Lan to wake up the princess again and again.
"Have the tea servers outside been considerate?" Mo Xuetong slowly raised her lips. She didn't stand up, but just leaned up. Mo Lan had known the opportunity to pick up the big pillow and put it behind her. She was anyway It is normal not to get up if you are sick due to anger.
"Princess, don't worry. I don't need to be a little embarrassed when I ask you to take care of me. I see that Madam Lian deliberately asked us to be embarrassed. Although I look at the smile on my face, I always feel so hypocritical." Mo Yu was disgusted. She said that she really didn't want to see Mrs. Lian.
She didn't even want to see the two maids she brought with her. Why are they dressed so coquettishly? It's really disliked for a mistress of the house to have such coquettish maids by her side.
Mo Xuetong nodded appreciatively. Although Mo Yu was a straight-tempered person, he knew that no one could catch him on the surface. He immediately smiled and said: "Go and invite Mrs. Lian to come over. She said that I was not in good health and was taking medicine just now, so I was worried about it." It’s too late, please forgive me, Mrs. Lian.”
No matter what Lian An's wife had in mind, Mo Xuetong had her own way of dealing with her. She was just thinking about getting involved with Lian An's family when Mrs. Lian came to her door. Why not make good use of it.
"Yes, slave, come down right now." Mo Yu responded and was about to retreat.
"Wait a minute." Mo Xuetong suddenly said, blinking slyly with his smart water eyes, reaching out to let Mo Lan and Mo Yu come closer together, whispering a few words in their ears, the two looked at each other, and immediately nod.
Mo Yu went down to lead Mrs. Lian over.
Before coming here, Mrs. Lian was quite sure. She felt that Princess Xuan was easy to talk to. She was also gentle and gentle in the previous meetings. She made people feel close to her. She apologized directly and expressed her feelings. The questions should be answered. It's not big. After all, she is also a first-class lady of the court, so she has to give herself this face no matter what.
Besides, she really didn't know anything about it. She asked Lian An about it afterwards, and Lian An also said that she had been wronged, so she felt confident about it.
But when he waited and saw no one, he asked several maids and wives, and they all shook their heads and said they didn't know. This made Mrs. Lian feel a little uneasy. She became more and more uneasy as she sat in the living room, and she also felt a little regretful in her heart. If she had known it earlier, That day, I just apologized directly to Princess Xuan in front of all the ladies, so why bother to embarrass myself so much today.
Of course, I am also a little dissatisfied with the behavior of Princess Xuan!
Even though she was not the wife of a minister, she followed Mo Yu towards the inner courtyard without daring to say anything. She and Lian An grew up in poverty and had no background in the capital. This step has a lot to do with the husband and wife being kind to each other. Of course, they would not dare to offend the hot Princess Xuan in person.
"Girl, how is the princess's health? Is she okay?" she asked cautiously. It was this caution that allowed her to reach this day safely.
"Mrs. Lian, you are so polite. The princess has not recovered since she was angry last time. She stayed with the prince in the Xishan Hospital for a few days, and because there was no suitable doctor, she had to come back. The doctor from the Imperial Hospital was also invited to come and see her. However, the princess is angry this time and needs to take a good rest." Mo Yu looked at the road ahead and said calmly while leading the way.
Really sick? Smelling the smell of medicine in the air getting stronger and stronger, looking at the large courtyard door in front of her, Mrs. Lian was confused. Before she came, she was sure that Princess Xuan just wanted to make a fuss and deliberately let people know that she had been wronged. This kind of behavior, she would not do in private. I really feel like I don't like her. I can tell at a glance that she is childish. She is just like some of the big-hearted maids in the mansion who deliberately try to please the master. She really can't stand up to the public eye.
When the time comes, as long as I coax him well, there will be nothing wrong with him.
But looking at the current situation, could this be true? The smile on his face is a little stiff. If this is true, there is no guarantee that Prince Xuan will be angry with the master, and the current emperor. I heard that the one he loves the most is Prince Xuan. Don't cause any trouble because of this. Come on, she really regretted it at this time. If she had known, she would have apologized directly that day regardless of whether it was embarrassing or not, and she could have asked the ladies to bear witness to her.
"Madam, please, our princess is inside." Mo Lan stood guard at the door. When he saw Mrs. Lian coming, he bowed and saluted, but his expression was indifferent and he was not enthusiastic towards her at all.
With a worried heart, Mrs. Lian went inside and saw Mo Xuetong leaning on the couch, with a small face as pale as snow and a haggard expression. She knew at a glance that she was really sick, and she couldn't help but feel. Nervously, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Princess, why is your body like this? We haven't seen you for a few days and you have become so thin. What should I do? I really feel sorry for you..."
She wanted to work hard and make it clear that Yu Mingyong really had nothing to do with her anyway.
"Mrs. Lian, sit down and talk first. Mo Yu will serve tea to Mrs. Lian." Mo Xuetong coughed twice and said weakly, but seemed to inadvertently interrupt Mrs. Lian's words, preventing her from finishing her words in one go.
"Mrs. Lian, please sit down and have tea, please." Mo Yu brought the tea and said calmly, looked at the two maids behind Mrs. Lian, and stepped aside respectfully.

The two maids were originally standing next to Mrs. Lian. At this time, because the descendants of Lian stepped back and sat aside, Mo Yu also stepped back, leaving them two standing blankly. Seeing that the two girls were so tactless, Mrs. Lian secretly gritted her teeth in hatred and was about to speak when she heard Mo Xuetong smile.
"It seems like we have met these two girls in the house somewhere, but I can't remember them at the moment..." Mo Xuetong rubbed her forehead and said in annoyance.
Mingyu's eyes lit up as he stood below. At this time, he became smarter. He immediately saluted and said: "The princess is really a noble person who forgets things. I and Mingxia met the princess in Mr. Qin's mansion."
"Oh, yes, I remember, you two were still quarreling at that time, right! Look at my memory, it's getting worse after I got sick." A sudden smile appeared on Mo Xuetong's face, and she gently held out her hand. He patted his head and looked at the two maids with a smile.
I didn't understand it before, so I just felt familiar, but couldn't remember who it was. Only then did I realize that these two maids were similar to Concubine Zhao. It seemed that there was indeed a problem between Concubine Zhao and Lian An. But I don't know if Mrs. Lian, who seems gentle and kind, but is actually very calculating, knows.
"Exactly, these two servants." Mingyu said happily without seeing his wife glaring at the side.
Mrs. Lian's face darkened when she spoke angrily. She had always indulged these two maids and deliberately spoiled them to the point of being lawless. This was because these were the two maids that Lian An liked, and she originally thought that they would be married to each other after a while. , and save her husband from being bothered by people outside. Of course, she didn't have any good intentions.
There are several aunts in the Lian Mansion, and none of them are fuel-efficient. If the two maids are so pampered, and they bump into those few, and something happens, it is not her fault. They are all concubines and Regarding the marriage, no matter who beat whom or harmed whom, she only had to watch.
Of course, she still didn't want the two of them to really hook up with Lian An, break the rules of the house, and lose their reputation before she was promoted as a marriage partner, so she kept the two of them with her.
It doesn't matter if you move a house or a concubine, but everything must be in your own hands. Even Mrs. Lian can't stand someone in her backyard who has lost her control.
But now in Prince Xuan's Mansion, he was so humble that he spoke before his master spoke, and he was so flattering that he even told about the quarrel between the two people. How would outsiders view Lian Mansion and how would they view himself? This mistress of the house can't even cure the maids around her, so how can she manage the family? She is really embarrassed.
