For three days in a row, Mu Yunjin stayed in the Liquan Pavilion without taking a single step, and Zixiang brought her the daily meals.
And these three days, Chu Li seemed to have evaporated from the world, disappearing without a trace.
"Miss, news came from the Prime Minister's Mansion just now that the eldest and young master will marry his first wife in three days." Zi Xiang brought the breakfast inside the door and spoke hastily.
Mu Yunjin, who had just changed her clothes, paused slightly, and looked at Zixiang in surprise, "Three days later? In such a hurry?"
"Yes, that's what the servants heard." Zixiang said.
Hearing this, Mu Yunjin hurriedly said to Zixiang, "Quick, comb my hair, I want to go back to the prime minister's residence."
"Yes, miss."
Half an hour later, the carriage stopped steadily at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Mu Yunjin jumped out of the carriage in a hurry, and walked quickly to the mansion.
At this time, in the front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mu Xiang and Luo Ningyu were sitting in it, holding a red booklet in their hands, discussing some matters.
Seeing Mu Yunjin came back, the two of them were not surprised, they smiled at Mu Yunjin, "Yunjin is back."
Mu Yunjin nodded, "I heard that elder brother will marry a wife in three days?"
"Yeah, it happened suddenly. I'm discussing the details of the big wedding with you, San Niang." There was a smile in Mu Xiang's eyebrows.
"Which family is the girl from?" Mu Yunjin was curious.
Luo Ningyu returned with a smile, "It's Zhuang Taifu's granddaughter Yuyan."
Zhuang Yuyan
Mu Yunjin was a little surprised, and turned her eyes slightly, "Where's the eldest brother?"
"In his chamber."
"I'll go take a look." Mu Yunjin said.
Mu Yunjin walked all the way to Mu Yunhan's attic, and when she was walking halfway, she saw Mu Yunhan sitting in the pavilion drinking tea that day.
"Brother." Mu Yunjin called out.
When Mu Yunhan heard the voice, he was slightly startled, then turned around, and when he saw Mu Yunjin, he smiled slightly, "It's you who came."
Mu Yunjin walked over, sat down opposite Mu Yunhan, stared at her and asked, "Do you know the girl from the Zhuang family?"
"I don't know." Mu Yunhan shook his head.
"Then why do you want to marry her all of a sudden, and why are you so anxious to get married in three days?" Mu Yunjin asked in surprise.
Mu Yunhan smiled when he heard the words, and said calmly, "I have secretly received news that Chu Qingqiang is going to ask the emperor for orders this afternoon to make me a son-in-law. I know that Taifu Zhuang wanted to match me and Zhuang Yuyan in private, so I met with him in person. Mrs. Zhuang, the marriage has been settled."
Hearing Mu Yunhan's words, Mu Yunjin slightly raised her eyebrows, "You have released the news of the big wedding earlier than Chu Qingqiang, I don't know if Chu Qingqiang is going crazy with anger right now."
"I can't control this. Compared to Chu Qingqiang, I can accept Zhuang Yuyan more." Mu Yunhan said slightly, with a bit of melancholy in his brows.
Mu Yunjin sighed slightly, "You and I were born in this family of prime ministers, so we can't make decisions about marriage. Now I only hope that Miss Zhuang is a good-tempered person."
"En." Mu Yunhan nodded.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of footsteps coming hurriedly, and then saw Chu Qingqiang, who was wearing a green brocade dress, angrily walking over, and when he saw Mu Yunhan's figure, he said sharply—
"Mu Yunhan, you are not allowed to marry Zhuang Yuyan!"
Seeing that Chu Qingqiang came to the door to ask questions, Mu Yunjin smiled faintly and looked at Mu Yunhan.
Mu Yunhan stood up, bowed to Chu Qingqiang, and said with a smile, "I've seen the fifth princess."
"Yunhan, why do you want to marry Zhuang Yuyan all of a sudden?" Chu Qingqiang calmed down slightly, took a few steps closer, and looked at Mu Yunhan in a good voice.
"I've reached the age of marriage, and it just so happens that Yuyan's character, character and appearance are all in line with my wishes, so there seems to be no reason not to marry." Mu Yunhan laughed.
Hearing this, Chu Qingqiang bit her lip, with a sneer on her face, "What if the princess doesn't agree?"
"The fifth princess's reason?" Mu Yunhan asked.
"You are a smart person, you should know how much this princess loves you, Mu Yunhan, this princess will never allow you to marry other women." Chu Qingqiang's eyes were full of pride.
Mu Yunjin heard it from the side, and couldn't help being speechless, "Fifth sister, you are not good, brother and sister Yuyan's marriage has already been announced, how can you take it back at will?"
Chu Qingqiang glared at Mu Yunjin, "Mu Yunjin, you have no place to speak here!"
After a pause, Chu Qingqiang raised her chin slightly, met Mu Yunhan's gaze, and then said, "It's fine to marry Zhuang Yuyan, but she can only be a concubine."
"The position of your first wife must be left to this princess."
When Mu Yunhan heard this, his complexion turned dark again.
"Why does the fifth princess have to be so messy? Do you think you can't get married? What's more, if you let sister Yuyan be a concubine, will the Tai Tuo agree?" Mu Yunjin sneered.
As far as she knew, this Grand Tutor had gone through two dynasties, and was once the current Emperor's Tai Tu teacher, who was deeply respected by the Emperor, and held a very important position in this Western Yuan Dynasty.
Mu Yunhan accepted the marriage marriage olive branch thrown by Taifu Zhuang, presumably because the Zhuang family's status in the Xiyuan Kingdom could suppress the arrogant fifth princess.
Chu Qingqiang's face really changed, Mu Yunjin's words really touched her difficulty.
She originally wanted to go to the emperor herself, but after much deliberation, the emperor would definitely not agree to her being involved in the marriage between the Mu family and the Zhuang family, but the man she finally fell in love with wanted to marry another woman, and she was really angry but.
"Yunhan, do you have no sincerity towards this princess?" Chu Qingqiang paused for a while, then stared at Mu Yunhan.
Mu Yunhan stroked his body slightly, and made a bow, "Yunhan is blessed, I believe the princess will meet someone who is destined."
"Oh, someone with predestined relationship..." Chu Qingqiang sneered, her eyes turned around leisurely, and then fell on Mu Yunjin, with a flash of jealousy in her eyes.
Then, with a flick of his sleeves, he turned and left.
Walking on the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Qingqiang's eyes were dark, and she said to her maid, "Wanxiu, which daughter Zhuang Yuyan usually walks with the closest?"
"It seems to be Miss Wen from the Wen family..."
Seeing that Chu Qingqiang was dismissed easily, Mu Yunhan glanced at Mu Yunjin, "Little girl, with this sharp mouth, you are really good at it."
"Just to be on the safe side, I think it's better for you to live with Zhuang Yuyan close to the mansion for these three days."
"Women, it's scary to be jealous." Mu Yunjin smiled and glanced at Mu Yunhan.
Mu Yunhan sighed slightly and nodded.
…
After Mu Yunjin left the mansion, she originally wanted to leave in the carriage of the prince's mansion, but suddenly Wanxiu's voice came from the side, "Sixth concubine, the princess invites you to have a heart-to-heart talk."
Mu Yunjin paused, only to find that Chu Qingqiang's carriage was still parked at the gate of Xiangfu, and did not leave.
Think about it, go forward.
Zixiang behind pulled Mu Yunjin's sleeve, and looked at Mu Yunjin worriedly.
"Not afraid." Mu Yunjin gave Zixiang a reassuring look.
After Mu Yunjin got into Chu Qingqiang's carriage, she saw Chu Qingqiang sitting in it with a cold face, looking at Mu Yunjin with disdain.
Mu Yunjin found an open space to sit down, and as soon as she sat down, the carriage started driving.
"What does the fifth princess want to tell me?" Mu Yunjin cut to the point, her tone cold.
Looking at Mu Yunjin, Chu Qingqiang sneered, "Mu Yunjin, you have been involved a lot in the matter between this princess and your brother, right?"
"The fifth princess thinks too much." Mu Yunjin lowered her eyes.
"My princess sees that you two have a good relationship, so I'm a little surprised. Why are you brothers and sisters? Yun Han doesn't seem to like the number one talented woman, Mu Lingzhu, but she's very close to you, an idiot. Is it possible, really? What the third brother said, all these years, the rumors about you in Diehua City are all false?"
Mu Yunjin leaned against the carriage, although she didn't understand the meaning of Chu Qingqiang's words, she still smiled lightly and said, "It's just a rumor, if it's passed on, you can't tell the truth."
"Oh, I can't see the truth." Chu Qingqiang mocked, "Do you really think that life will be peaceful now that you are married to Chu Li?"
"Does the fifth princess want to bring out the legendary Miss Qin again?" Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows.
Seeing Mu Yunjin's airy attitude, Chu Qingqiang became even more angry in her heart. A sarcasm appeared on the corner of her mouth, "No, I don't need Mu Yue. To deal with you, Mu Yunjin, this princess is enough!"
"Princess, we're here." Wanxiu's voice came from outside.
The carriage stopped.
Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, and opened the curtain of the carriage, only to see the carriage stopped in a remote house.
Mu Yunjin got off the carriage and looked around, only to find that the outside of the house was almost a piece of wasteland, and inside the house, there was a room with the door closed.
Zixiang trotted up, stood beside Mu Yunjin, and said timidly, "Miss, this servant was walking outside just now, seeing that the terrain is getting more and more biased, I wanted to talk to you, but Wanxiu is not allowed I spoke."
After Zixiang finished speaking, the gate of the house opened, and a beautifully dressed woman walked out from the inside, followed by a dozen or so men, all of whom were strong and holding sticks in their hands.
"Meet the fifth princess." The woman paid homage directly to Chu Qingqiang.
The corners of Chu Qingqiang's lips curled up slightly, and there was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes looking at Mu Yunjin, "Mu Yunjin, this princess is not stupid, I know in my heart that you are behind the scenes of Mu Yunhan's marriage. "
"If you dare to plot against this princess, this princess will let you have a try."
"Liniang, I brought you a good product today, and it will definitely become your Huayuelou's top card." Chu Qingqiang covered her mouth and smiled, and looked at Liniang coquettishly.
Hearing Chu Qingqiang's words, Zixiang trembled in fright, and firmly grasped the corner of Mu Yunjin's clothes, completely unexpected that what Chu Qingqiang said was to send the young lady directly to the brothel.
"Thank you princess for taking care of the business. Liniang's Huayuelou has been in business for so many years, and the business is booming, all thanks to the help of the fifth princess." Liniang smiled cheerfully, and looked at Mu Yunjin beside her. Very amazing.
"Fifth princess, you can't do this, how can this be like the sixth prince's confession?" Zixiang knelt down, pleading.
"The sixth concubine disappeared strangely, and this princess is also very anxious." Chu Qingqiang said with a face full of regret.
Mu Yunjin crossed her arms and looked at the somewhat frenzied Chu Qingqiang, knowing that this woman was directly deceived because of Mu Yunhan's matter.
But what is even more surprising is that, as a princess of the royal family, she should be pampered and pampered, but she actually colluded with the brothel business in private.
Isn't she afraid that if this matter gets out, she will be a disgrace to the royal family
Chu Qingqiang, you are digging your own grave!
