Mu Lingzhu's resolute and bright voice resounded in the entire front hall, making everyone standing in the front hall startled.
Especially Mu Xiang, with his eyes wide open, seemed to feel that he had heard wrong.
But when he thought about it, there was a trace of sadness on his face again, now that Lord Rong has made it clear that he wants to marry Mu Lingzhu, although he is a valuable minister in the court, he cannot easily offend King Rong.
After Su Biqing's death, although he was a little disappointed with Zhu'er, she was the proudest daughter he ever had. Now that he was going to marry a man from his father's generation, how could he feel comfortable.
Zhu'er's answer just now showed that she was still that sensible child, but it just made him feel a little bit sorry for this daughter.
Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows slightly, bit her lips, and was a little surprised that Mu Lingzhu would agree to marry King Rong, but based on her understanding of Mu Lingzhu, I am afraid that after Mu Lingzhu married, the current Princess Rong would be Not long to die...
"Hahahaha, Fourth Miss Mu is really very intelligent. After you enter Prince Rong's mansion, this king will definitely treat you well." King Rong smiled all over his face.
After laughing, he bowed to Mu Xiang again, "Master Xiang, my little niece and daughter-in-law married Li Er not long ago, and called me Uncle Wang, and now Lingzhu is going to marry me as the king again, so we can be regarded as more intimate." gone."
Mu Xiang nodded reluctantly when he heard the words, and forced a smile, "I believe that Lord Rong will be a good son-in-law."
"Naturally, it shouldn't be too late. On an auspicious day, this king will definitely prepare eight palanquins to marry Lingzhu."
Mu Xiang hummed, then glanced at Luo Ningyu who was beside him.
Luo Ningyu paused, took a calendar, flipped through it, and looked at Mu Xiang and Rong Wang timidly, "The eighth day of next month is a good day."
"Okay, then eighth day. Lingzhu, do you have any objections?" King Rong turned his eyes to look at Mu Lingzhu.
Mu Lingzhu shook her head, stroked her body, "But it's up to the prince to decide."
"Okay, then it's finalized. Today, my little nephew and daughter-in-law are also at her mother's house. I won't disturb your family reunion. Let me leave." King Rong said, nodded to Mu Xiang, and walked out, leaving only the whole family behind. A room full of expensive betrothal gifts.
There was a moment of silence in the vestibule.
After Mu Lingzhu sorted out her emotions, she looked at Mu Xiang with a smile, "Father, don't worry about your daughter. The development of everything is determined by God. If Zhu'er marries in the past, she is sincerely treating Zhu'er well, and that is also Zhu'er's blessing."
"Sigh, it's hard for you child to think so. Although King Rong is kind, there are already five or six concubines in the harem. Even though you married as a side concubine, you must be careful of these people. .” Mu Xiang said.
"Zhu'er will be careful herself." Mu Lingzhu smiled, and then turned her gaze to Mu Yunjin, "Sister, when Zhu'er marries into Prince Rong's mansion, you should still call me sister, don't call me king Sister-in-law, is it okay? Otherwise, it seems that you and I have a lot of sisters."
The corners of Mu Yunjin's eyes twitched. She felt sorry for Mu Lingzhu that she married an old man, but now she spoke in such a tone that she seemed a bit sad.
Sure enough, dogs can't change their food...
"Fourth sister, don't worry too much. You are the side concubine of Rong Wang, so it's not my turn to call you Mrs. Wang." Mu Yunjin glanced at Mu Lingzhu lightly.
Seeing that the two children were bickering again, Mu Xiang didn't say much, turned around and walked to the back garden.
After Mu Xiang left, the atmosphere in the front hall eased slightly.
Mu Xiarou, who had been sitting by the side watching the excitement, suddenly covered her mouth with a smile, and approached Mu Lingzhu, "Fourth sister, that King Rong is in good condition, and he is significantly younger than our father."
"You..." Hearing Mu Xiarou's sarcasm, Mu Lingzhu stared over.
"Rou'er, go back to the room quickly, don't stay here and talk nonsense." Seeing that the situation was wrong, Luo Ningyu scolded Mu Xiarou.
Mu Xiarou pouted and shook her head, walked to Mu Yunjin's side, and took Mu Yunjin's arm, "Third Sister, do you think so? Is King Rong younger than our father?"
Seeing Mu Xiarou asking again, Zhuang Yuyan sighed slightly, walked over, and looked at Mu Lingzhu, "Fourth sister, don't take it to heart, fifth sister is still young and can't speak, so don't take it to heart. "
"Sister-in-law is worrying too much. How can I have the same knowledge as Fifth Younger Sister? Fifth Younger Sister is still two years away from Jiji. When the time comes, I, the older sister, will also help Fifth Younger Sister and help her find a good family." Mu Lingzhu As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked Mu Xiarou's head, looking at Mu Xiarou with a hint of warning in his eyes.
Seeing this look, Mu Xiarou's heart trembled, she took a step back, and ran to Luo Ningyu, "Mom, shall we go back to the house?"
"Okay." Luo Ningyu had already seen the smell of gunpowder here, so he twitched his mouth, "I'll take Rou'er back to the house first, and you sisters are getting together, let's have a good chat."
Before Luo Ningyu left, he specially ordered his servants to take away the betrothal gifts in the front hall. After a while, the front hall became empty again, leaving only Mu Yunjin, Mu Lingzhu and Zhuang Yuyan.
Zhuang Yuyan was caught in the middle at this time, and she could tell that there seemed to be something wrong between the two sisters, but something might have gone wrong, so she had to sit aside and stare at Mu Yunjin and Mu Lingzhu all the time.
"It's rare for my sister to go back to her mother's house, so let's go after lunch here. Anyway, Miss Qin is back, and the sixth prince must not have time to accompany you." Mu Lingzhu sat beside Mu Yunjin, and said mockingly .
Mu Yunjin supported her head, raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing these words, and thought in her heart, this Mu Lingzhu will really climb up the pole.
When he lost power not long ago, he saw that he didn't even dare to lift his head. Now that King Rong had just left after he was hired, he returned to the bitter and mean tone when they first met.
"Don't worry about me. Didn't my father just say that there are five or six concubines in Rong Wang's mansion? You should worry about how many times you can be favored by yourself in a month." Mu Yunjin sneered and licked her lips. Mouth tea.
Mu Lingzhu's complexion changed, her words choked in her throat, she bit her lip a little annoyed, and finally couldn't sit still, she stood up, "Mu Yunjin, let me see how long you can be proud."
After speaking, Mu Lingzhu also left the front hall.
Seeing that Mu Lingzhu couldn't bear to be so angry and left, Mu Yunjin sneered and secretly cursed that she deserved it.
"Oh, you guys are so strange." Zhuang Yuyan shook her head helplessly when she saw that she and Mu Yunjin were the only ones who would leave in a while.
"Sister Yuyan, what about my brother, is it strange?" Mu Yunjin blinked at Zhuang Yuyan.
Zhuang Yuyan curled her lips slightly when she heard the words, "Yun Han has been appointed by the emperor to lead the army in the past few days, and manages all the guards in the palace. I'm so busy that I almost can't see him."
"What else?" Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows.
"Yeah, I haven't returned home for three days..."
…
Mu Yunjin didn't have lunch in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and after chatting with Zhuang Yuyan, she brought Zixiang back to the Sixth Prince's Mansion.
Walking on the street, Zixiang, who had been holding back for a long time, opened up her chatterbox, "Miss, do you think Miss Si has been punished? She was so high-minded in the past, but now she wants to marry a man who is much older than her."
"Why don't you think she turned around with the help of King Rong?" Mu Yunjin turned her head to look at Zixiang, with a faint smile on her brows and eyes.
"Your servant doesn't think that I was chatting with Nanny Shen in the mansion before, and Nanny Shen told my servant that the current Princess Rong is the daughter of Old General Qin and Miss Qin's aunt. Now the status of the Qin family is in the entire Western Yuan Dynasty. The capital of the country is very important, with the Qin family as the backer, how could Miss Fourth be a match for Princess Rong."
Hearing Zixiang's words, Mu Yunjin's eyes flashed with astonishment, as if she couldn't believe it, "Are you sure?"
"Of course it's true, I don't dare to talk nonsense." Zixiang nodded in confirmation.
Mu Yunjin pursed her lips slightly, she still had a disdainful tone when she heard that Rong Wang mentioned Concubine Rong in the prime minister's mansion just now. Unexpectedly, this Princess Rong was actually a great Buddha.
The Qin family is also a member of the Qin family.
Just as she was thinking, Zi Xiang suddenly stopped, reached out and patted Mu Yunjin's shoulder, "Miss, look quickly..."
In Zixiang's words, there was also a trace of anger mixed in.
Mu Yunjin followed the prestige, saw the figures coming out of the Mingxiang teahouse in front of her, she frowned slightly, but soon the brows were relaxed, her face was indifferent and expressionless.
Chu Li and Qin Muyue naturally also saw Mu Yunjin standing not far away, and for a while, the expressions on their faces were different.
Chu Li squinted at Mu Yunjin, and saw that she was standing in plain clothes in front of the Mingxiang Tea House, exuding an indescribable elegance and elegance all over her body, and her alluring face robbed all the surroundings. The color is irresistible.
After Qin Muyue noticed Chu Li's gaze, she smiled and waved towards Mu Yunjin, "Sister-in-law Yunjin, what a coincidence to meet you here."
Mu Yunjin smiled faintly, walked a few steps closer, and nodded towards Qin Muyue, "Yes, what a coincidence."
"Brother Li and I just had lunch here, and now I'm going to take Brother Li to accompany me to Shuiyun Temple to find Master Huaiyuan. When the old man heard that I was back, he pestered me to play chess with him!" Qin Muyue All smiles.
"By the way, since we met, would sister-in-law Yunjin want to go together?" Qin Muyue asked again.
Mu Yunjin shook her head, her eyes lightly skipped Chu Li's side, and there was a bit of coldness in her eyes, "No, I prefer going back to my room to catch up on sleep rather than wandering around."
"Well, what a pity, it's getting late, Brother Li and I will leave first, and I will visit you at the Prince's Mansion tomorrow." After Qin Muyue finished speaking, she jumped into the carriage that was parked beside her.
Seeing that Chu Li was still standing there, Mu Yunjin tilted her head to look at Chu Li, and made a playful smile, "Your Highness the Sixth Prince is still leaving?"
"My prince and her, it's nothing." Chu Li was shaken by Mu Yunjin's smile, and his face was slightly gloomy.
After the words fell, he didn't even realize why he had to explain this to Mu Yunjin, but seeing the playful smile on Mu Yunjin's face, he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"Whether there is anything or not is not important to me. Anyway, the relationship between us is clear to each other, as long as we do not interfere with each other."
