Next, Mu Yunjin looked at the astonishment in the eyes of the three people in front of her with satisfaction, held back a smile, but there was a chill in her eyes, and waited for the next sentence.
Mu Lingzhu bit her lip, thinking in her heart that she didn't know what had happened to Mu Yunjin in the past two days, and her temperament changed so drastically that even her father dared to contradict her.
Just when she was about to speak, Su Biqing tugged at her sleeve and gave her a wink, signaling her not to speak.
Mu Xiang quickly came back to his senses, looking at Mu Yunjin's eyes, even a trace of killing intent flashed across his eyes, perhaps the anger had already burned to the top of his head, Mu Xiang immediately yelled, "Come on! Bind this rebellious girl!" Get up, today I will whip her dozens of times, let her taste the Mu family's family law!"
Just when several servants appeared and wanted to tie Mu Yunjin, a voice came in, "Master, Madam, Mother Qu, who is beside Concubine Qin, has come to the mansion."
When they heard that they were people next to Concubine Qin, Mu Xiang, Su Biqing and the others changed their expressions, glanced at Mu Yunjin who was standing on the side, and then strode towards the front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
In the front hall, an old lady dressed in palace clothes stood there. After seeing the figures of Mu Xiang and Su Biqing, she stroked them.
"You don't need to be polite, Madam Qu, give me your seat." Mu Xiang took the main seat, and pointed to the side.
Nanny Qu shook her head and smiled, "The old slave came today, following the orders of the concubine, to announce the third Miss Mu and the fourth Miss Mu to enter the palace three days later."
"Also proclaimed the Lingzhu?" Su Biqing's eyes lit up when she heard Miss Mu's name.
Nanny Qu nodded, "The old slave has passed on the oral order, and I will ask the two young ladies to get ready in three days."
…
After Nanny Qu left, Mu Yunjin looked at Mu Xiangqi's livid face, slightly curled the corners of her lips, and sighed in her heart that Nanny Qu came at the right time.
Three days later, I will go to the palace to see the concubine. Forgive me that Mr. Mu would not dare to impose family law on her at this time, otherwise when the time comes, his body will be covered with scars, and Mu Xiang will not be able to please her.
Mu Lingzhu stood on one side, looked at the smile on Mu Yunjin's face, clenched her fingers slightly, and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Su Biqing again.
Su Biqing squinted at Mu Lingzhu, and said with a smile, "Zhu'er, tomorrow is our annual literary competition in Diehua City, and there must be many literati gathered here, you, the number one literati who has been elected for three consecutive years , Don’t let your father and mother down this year.”
After Su Biqing finished speaking, she glanced at Mu Xiang and Mu Yunjin again.
When Mu Xiang heard about the Douwen Contest, his complexion softened a little. After he caught sight of Mu Yunjin who was still standing in the hall, he snorted coldly, "What are you still standing here for? Go back to your Shihua Pavilion!"
Mu Yunjin didn't even reply, she curled her lips and walked out of the hall.
When she returned to Shihua Pavilion, she saw Zixiang standing outside the door with an eager look on her face. When she saw Mu Yunjin, Zixiang immediately grinned and ran over.
"Miss, you are finally back."
Mu Yunjin poked Zixiang's forehead with her hand, and said with a smile, "Look at you sweating profusely, why panic!"
Mu Yunjin smiled and walked inside.
After stepping into the back room, Zixiang poured a glass of water for Mu Yunjin, and after taking a sip of water, Mu Yunjin asked, "What's the name of the fighting essay competition in Diehua City?"
"The Essay Contest is the competition that the people of Diehua City look forward to the most every year. Because every year the questioner is the current emperor. Therefore, many literati want to use this competition to gain the appreciation of the emperor."
"The fourth lady of our mansion has been the leader for the first time since she first participated in this competition three years ago, so she has also added a lot of glory to our Mu mansion."
Zixiang said with joy, and after she finished the last sentence, she subconsciously covered her mouth and glanced at Mu Yunjin's expression.
Mu Yunjin listened to Zixiang's words with downcast eyes, not taking it to heart at all.
After a while, Mu Yunjin took another sip of tea and raised the corners of her lips, "Since this competition is so interesting, then tomorrow I will go to see the world no matter what."
"Miss, you..." Zixiang stared wide-eyed, a little afraid to continue.
Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows, "Why are you staring so big? Did it scare you?"
Zixiang nodded.
Mu Yunjin smiled, and looked at Zixiang amusingly, "You, it's not a good thing to be timid."
