Ding Xian was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at Mu Yunjin, then at Chu Li, his eyes were full of "Are you sure?" Then he said awkwardly, "My subordinates think that it may not work."
"Master Huaiyuan once said that she could crack Kong Shi's formation, and now she has cracked half of it, and the remaining half, maybe she can too." Chu Li said flatly.
Ding Xian's heart trembled when he heard this, and when he was about to continue speaking, Mu Yunjin and Zixiang had already walked beside them.
Mu Yunjin glanced at Chu Li and Ding Xian, and seeing that they seemed to be talking about something, she twitched the corners of her lips slightly, and walked into the bedroom without stopping.
After entering the room, Mu Yunjin subconsciously walked to the closet, opened the closet and saw that the cloak was still there, heaved a sigh of relief, and sat down on the rocking chair beside her.
Lying on the rocking chair, thinking about some recent events, Mu Yunjin sighed a little tiredly.
…
Early the next morning, Mu Yunjin was woken up by Zixiang. After getting up, she let Zixiang comb her hair. You have to be extra careful at the Lake Tour Appreciation Festival, the fifth princess, the fourth lady, and that Miss Qin will all be there."
When she heard that all these people had arrived, Mu Yunjin was completely unwilling to go, but she heard Shen Nanny said yesterday that she was representing the female relatives of the Sixth Prince's Mansion, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and go.
After dressing up briefly, Mu Yunjin took Zixiang out of the Prince's Mansion.
Sitting on the carriage going to the suburbs, Zixiang was extremely worried, her face wrinkled into a ball, and there was always a bad premonition in her heart, which couldn't be shaken off.
After a while, the carriage stopped at Yingguang Lake on the outskirts.
Mu Yunjin got out of the carriage, and saw an exquisite wooden boat parked by the lake, beside which there were already many carriages parked there, many daughters of officials were afraid of the heat, so they sat in the carriage and did not come out.
About a quarter of an hour later, the carriage of Rong Wang's Mansion slowly drove up.
After the carriage came to a complete stop, Mu Lingzhu got out of the carriage with the help of her maid. After Mu Lingzhu got off the carriage, she stood beside the carriage and stretched out her hand. Princess Rong put her hand on Mu Lingzhu's hand , Mu Lingzhu helped her get out of the car.
Seeing Princess Rong coming, many people got out of the car one by one, and when they saw Mu Lingzhu supporting Princess Rong, their eyes were teasing, and they covered their mouths and smiled.
Mu Lingzhu was stared at by these gazes, keeping her eyes down all the time, not daring to raise her head.
In the past, she was the most favored daughter of Mu Xiangfu, and she also had the title of the most talented woman in the Xiyuan Kingdom. These women had no time to fawn on her, so how could they be ridiculed like this.
At this time, another carriage drove up not far away, and the people who got off were Qin Muyue and Chu Qingqiang.
The two walked along arm in arm, and it seemed that they had a very good relationship.
After Chu Qingqiang and Qin Muyue approached a few steps, Chu Qingqiang glanced leisurely past Mu Yunjin, smiled mockingly, and then stroked Princess Chao Rong, "Aunt Wang."
"Well, Qing Qiang is here." Princess Rong looked around, "Since everyone is here, let's get on the boat to enjoy the lake first."
"Yes, Concubine Rong." After paying respects to Concubine Rong, all the daughters went to the wooden boat one by one.
…
In the cabin, everyone sat one by one, and the little maids at the side offered snacks and tea to everyone, and then retreated to the side.
Princess Rong sat in the main seat, looked at the people under her eyes, and slightly curled her lips, "It's been a long time since I came here, this Yingguang lake is still so beautiful."
"Auntie, since you think this Yingguang Lake is beautiful, it's good for your health to come out and walk around more often." Qin Muyue took a sip of tea and looked at Princess Rong.
Concubine Rong nodded, looked at Qin Muyue with a smile, and said with a smile, "This year's speech appreciation meeting, there are quite a few newcomers, even the most talented woman. Everyone, be careful."
After Princess Rong finished speaking, she glanced at Mu Lingzhu lightly.
Mu Lingzhu lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. For Princess Rong, a woman who couldn't figure out her temperament, she could only smile at everyone at this moment, and dared not say a word.
In the past few days in Rong Wang's mansion, she has been tortured miserably.
"Sister-in-law Yunjin is also participating for the first time, right?" Qin Muyue changed the subject and looked at Mu Yunjin who happened to be sitting opposite her.
Mu Yunjin hummed.
Seeing this, Chu Qingqiang on the side snorted softly, her eyes revealing disdain, "I thought I would not be able to see the sixth prince and concubine at today's reward ceremony, after all, those who have not read any books do not have the courage to come here. "
"The fifth princess may not be entirely right. Concubine Mu is the most talented woman after all. The sixth concubine and concubine Mu are born of the same mother, so they will be affected by what they hear." Yan Lingshang opened her mouth and swept lightly. He glanced at Mu Yunjin.
"Miss Yan is right, but this princess is reckless." Chu Qingqiang laughed lowly, then changed the subject, "By the way, Concubine Mu, I heard that you fainted a few days ago? It's rumored that it's the king. Aunt abused you, and today, while everyone is here, why don't you explain, so that outsiders don't misunderstand Aunt Wang."
Mu Lingzhu was originally happy when she heard Chu Qingqiang and others taunting Mu Yunjin, but she suddenly turned on her.
The abuse, wasn't it because Qin Shuning deliberately abused her, causing her to faint
This Chu Qingqiang's move was really ruthless. In this kind of situation, how could she tell the truth, she could only smash her teeth and swallow her blood.
"It's Lingzhu's own poor health. How could it be the concubine who abused me? I don't know who spread the rumors. It's really outrageous." Mu Lingzhu looked at Chu Qingqiang with a smile on her face.
"Let's just say, how could such a gentle person like aunt abuse sister Lingzhu?" Qin Muyue said.
When Princess Rong heard this, she sighed slightly, and said with a smile, "Since it's a misunderstanding, it's good to make it clear, it's getting late, let's come up with the topic, today we will use this Yingguang Lake as the topic, who will start first? "
"Let the number one talented girl come." Qin Muyue said.
"Well, let's start with my sister." Princess Rong glanced at Mu Lingzhu next to her.
Mu Lingzhu nodded, pursed her lips, and her eyes showed a trace of pride. She must make this head right, so that none of these ignorant women will be sorry.
At that time, in the entire Diehua City tomorrow, her talent and fame of Mu Lingzhu will come back again.
"The blue smoke is full of waves, and the lake water is like a mirror blowing ripples." Mu Lingzhu quickly opened her mouth, and she couldn't believe the confidence in her words. Someone could be better than what she said.
"The number one talented woman really lives up to her reputation." An official daughter beside her praised.
Princess Rong smiled when she heard this, "That's natural, otherwise, how could the prince have taken a fancy to Concubine Mu's talent, and insisted on marrying her!"
Princess Rong's words filled Mu Lingzhu's heart with joy, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Who will come next?" Princess Rong asked.
"Let sister-in-law Yunjin come, it's the first time for sister-in-law Yunjin to participate this year, we have to give way to the newcomers first." Qin Muyue looked at Mu Yunjin and said with a smile.
The people who were racking their brains on how to respond to Mu Lingzhu's poem just now breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Mu Yunjin came first.
It has to be said that Mu Lingzhu's literary talent is indeed impeccable.
But it would be interesting for Ms. Qin to ask Mu Yunjin to answer this poem. No one knows that Mu Yunjin doesn't know a single character, and now she is asked to answer such a difficult poem.
"Okay, then let the niece and daughter-in-law come first." Princess Rong looked at Mu Yunjin, "By the way, we have rules here, if you lose, you will be punished with three glasses of spirits. "
Mu Yunjin sat on the chair with her legs crossed, from the moment she entered the door until now, she couldn't tell that these people were crowding out herself and Mu Lingzhu.
Letting Mu Lingzhu speak first just now is for her to take over in this level.
"Sister, you have to think about it carefully." Mu Lingzhu was a little proud of writing such a poem, but seeing Qin Muyue let Mu Yunjin come to pick it up, she couldn't hide her excitement.
Now, let's see how Mu Yunjin suffers today.
Mu Yunjin glanced sideways at Mu Lingzhu, and really wanted to ask if she was out of her mind, and now they are excluding the two of them from the outside, can't this woman see it
Really careless.
"Sixth Prince and Concubine, let's talk about the poem quickly, don't delay the beauty of this time." Yan Lingshang said.
Mu Yunjin chuckled lightly, her gaze was a little playful, isn't it just a poem, when the Tang poetry and Song poetry she learned in those years were just decorations
Just when she was about to speak, Chu Qingqiang said with a smile, "Since the sixth concubine hasn't figured it out yet, let's think about it again. This princess just heard about an interesting thing, so let me tell you about it first."
"What's the matter?" Everyone's thoughts were suddenly attracted by Chu Qingqiang.
"Actually, it's just a rumor. This princess doesn't know if it's true or not. I just hope that the Sixth Prince Concubine and Concubine Mu will not be angry after telling the story."
When she heard that it was about herself again, Mu Yunjin curled her lips meaninglessly. Anyway, she knew that Chu Qingqiang opened her mouth, and there must be nothing good.
"A few days ago, my princess heard a few little maids gossiping there. This princess thought it was funny. They joked there that they heard that Concubine Mu's marriage to King Rong was instigated by the sixth concubine. The sixth brother went to talk to King Rong, and also said that the tenth brother was interested in Concubine Mu at first, but Uncle Rong Wang took the lead."
"What's even more ridiculous is that they said that the sixth imperial concubine did this because Concubine Mu told her since she was a child that she likes men who are older than herself. What is this called... Is it paternalism?"
"Hahahaha, this is too funny!"
After Chu Qingqiang finished speaking, the rest of the cabin couldn't help laughing, including the little maidservant who stood beside her, couldn't help laughing.
Mu Lingzhu's face was full of shame and indignation, her body trembled uncontrollably, she bit her lips tightly, and her eyes were red with aggrieved eyes.
Paternal fetishism, I didn't expect that those people would pass on her like this behind her back, it was a great humiliation for a girl who had just reached her age.
"Mu Yunjin, it turns out that you are behind all of this?" Mu Lingzhu got up in an aura, and pointed at Mu Yunjin.
When everyone heard this, they looked at the two of them.
Mu Yunjin naturally knew that Qin Muyue was responsible for Mu Lingzhu's marriage to King Rong, but at this time Chu Qingqiang said something well, and she just poured the dirty water on herself.
"Sister Lingzhu, father-loving, are you okay?" After laughing, Princess Rong raised her eyebrows and looked at Mu Lingzhu playfully.
