When the sun penetrated the mist and shone on the ground, the hot day began again.
Sitting on the carriage, Gao Haiqiong whispered while wiping his sweat: "It's time to go out earlier." When I arrived at Ci'en Temple, I was afraid it would be noon. At noon in August, people can be cooked.
Caichun smiled and said: "It will be hotter on the official road now, and it won't be hot when you go up the mountain." There are many trees on both sides of the mountain road, and the mountain is cooler than the city.
That's how it is said, but it is not easy to go up the mountain with such a big sun.
At the beginning of noon, the group arrived at Ci'en Temple. When he arrived at the main hall, he worshiped the Lord Buddha, Guanyin and other bodhisattvas, and Gao Haiqiong followed the abbot to a small courtyard.
There is a tall linden tree in this yard. The luxuriant branches and leaves cover the whole yard. As soon as I walked in, it was particularly cool.
Gao Haiqiong leaned on the chair and didn't want to move.
Soon, the monk in the monastery delivered Zhaifanzhai dishes. At home on weekdays, she is full of food. But the dishes delivered from Ci'en Temple this time were very delicious, and Gao Haiqiong didn't pay attention to eating too much.
"Go to the back mountain for a walk." The view of the back mountain is still very good. You can enjoy the scenery while eating.
As a result, in the back mountain, Gao Haiqiong met Mu Yingying who also came to the Ci'en Temple to offer incense.
After looking at Mu Yingying carefully up and down, Gao Haiqiong said in a disdainful tone: "I look pretty good, so it's no wonder you hook up with men everywhere."
When Ji Lan heard this, her face turned blue with anger. However, despite Gao Haiqiong's identity, Ji Lan dared not speak.
Mu Yingying said towards Ji Lan, "Didn't you just say that the hairpin was next to the water spring? Go look for it now."
Ji Lan didn't want to go, but under Mu Yingying's sharp eyes, he had to go.
Gao Haiqiong admired Mu Yingying a little, and said, "You are not afraid that I will be against you."
Mu Yingying looked calm and said, "I believe that the princess will not kill me."
Gao Haiqiong was a little surprised: "You are so sure that I will not kill you."
"Even though the princess hates me, she is not as murderous." After a pause, Mu Yingying said: "Furthermore, the second girl in the Li family committed suicide, and Mrs. Li died accidentally. Yu Shi would impeach you for life. If you are, You really killed me, even the empress dowager will no longer protect you. I believe that you will not do such a stupid thing, princess."
When she said this, Mu Yingying's expression was very calm.
If Mu Yingying succeeds in seducing Qi Rui, she might be murderous. This will, but I don't have this idea.
Gao Haiqiong exclaimed: "You are very smart. It's just that I don't understand that you are so beautiful and smart. Why can't you worry about not marrying a good person, why you want to be a concubine for my prince?" In Yun's family, concubines are very important Low. Although King Xuan had many concubine rooms, the positions of the two side concubines had been vacant until now. Except for Dai Yanxin, Xuanwang Mansion, the wife with the highest status is the wife. Even if these two wives gave birth to King Xuan, they were not qualified to enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother.
After hearing this, Mu Yingying said: "If the princess has time, I can tell you a story."
Gao Haiqiong is idle, and is also interested in listening to Mu Yingying's story when he has time.
Mu Yingying told the story of her father Mu Changqiu and mother Liao Shi: "The Mu family was too poor to eat sweet potato and potato, and any day a bowl of egg drop soup appeared on the dinner table, it would be considered rich. But my father and me After the mother decided to kiss her, they could see some meat on the table every month."
From only his words, Gao Haiqiong could feel that Mu Yingying hated the Mu family.
"Before my dad passed the exam for scholarships, my grandfather paid for his studies. After passing the exam for scholars, my grandfather's foundation was basically empty, and he felt helpless if he wanted to continue funding. But at that time my dad got a county education. With the appreciation of the mountain leader, I went to the county school to study." With the appreciation of the mountain leader, I can study without money.
In fact, even without the appreciation of the head of the mountain, Mu Changqiu was born with money every month. In addition, with fame, you can teach and receive bundled repairs. As long as you have perseverance, you can finally get ahead.
Gao Haiqiong asked, "Your grandfather, is your mother the only daughter?"
Mu Yingying shook his head and said, "My grandfather has a son and a daughter, and my uncle is three years younger than my mother."
"Then what"
Mu Yingying said: "After my dad was in the Juren, my grandmother turned her face and wanted to retire. At that time, my grandfather felt that the Mu family was too prosperous to change his face, and did not want my mother to marry the Mu family. But my mother was unwilling to marry him. , Forced by death. My grandfather had nothing to do, so he didn't agree to resign. When I was a child, my grandmother often heard that my mother was the daughter of a butcher, and she was a high climber to marry my father."
Gao Haiqiong was stunned: "How can you say this? If it wasn't your grandfather, how could your father study?"
Mu Yingying smiled, that smile was very sarcasm: "When I was young, my grandmother used to say that my grandfather took advantage of the danger and calculated my father, otherwise my father could marry the official lady as his wife. According to my grandmother's Meaning, my grandfather should provide my dad to study for free. In this way, he is a real good person."
I have never seen anyone so shameless. Gao Haiqiong said: "Who wants to put out money for a non-related person to study when the money is blown by the wind." There is no such thing as a pie in the sky, even if the big families in the capital contribute money to support the underachievers. I also want to wait for them to become famous.
After finishing speaking, Gao Haiqiong asked, "Then what does your father think?" Mu Changqiu's attitude was the key.
Hearing Mu Changqiu's three words, the expression on Mu Yingying's face went cold: "I know my grandmother is making things difficult for my mother, but she never said a word for my mother. After he was admitted to the jinshi, he still wanted my mother. Staying in the country to serve my grandfather and grandmother, he and Li live a happy life outside. My mother has been married to her for almost 20 years and has never left her home."
After a pause, Mu Yingying continued: "When I was twelve years old, he was sent out to Shengjing, and he sent someone to pick me up. My elder brother Xinting was killed by my grandmother’s ignorance. Rest assured to leave my little brother Xinrui in his hometown and insisted on bringing him to Shengjing."
When parents, their feelings for the first child are a little deeper. In addition, Mu Yingying is very smart. After going to the women's school to read characters, he writes a letter to Mu Changqiu every month. After a long time, Mu Changqiu also missed this daughter. Of course, it was also because Mu Yingying was beautiful and smart that he would pay attention. If not, I don't know where I forgot to go.
Gao Haiqiong said: "Are you at ease leaving your mother alone in your hometown?"
"I don't worry about listening to her. I can only stay in my hometown in the country for the rest of my life." After speaking, Mu Yingying looked at Gao Haiqiong and said with a smile: "When I was six years old, I was going to study in women's school. My grandmother didn't Agree, she beat me to force me to compromise. That time, I lay in bed for three days."
There is such a mother in this world.
"When I arrived in Shengjing, I found that the servants of Liao Mansion only knew the Li family, and I didn't even know the existence of my wife, the wife of the royal family, and our siblings. When I first arrived in Liao Mansion, my concubine Xueli thought we were our hometown. The poor relatives who came to play Qiufeng taunted our siblings." Mu Yingying laughed when he said this. That smile does not carry any temperature.
Gao Haiqiong looked at Mu Yingying without speaking. For anyone, it would be sad to encounter this.
Mu Yingying continued: "Later, I made a trick to let outsiders know that Li and Mu Xueli bullied our siblings." Female, will definitely affect Mu Changqiu's official career. So after this incident, Mu Changqiu let Mu Yingying take charge of the affairs of Mu's house.
Thinking of what Yang Qi said, Gao Haiqiong asked me: "I saw Mu Xueli bullying your siblings, is it the young master of the Yang family?"
"Yes. I just wanted him to be a testimony at the time, but I didn't expect that he would want to marry me because of this. I know that Young Master Yang, in order to marry me, forced me to go on a hunger strike and begged my father not to agree to this marriage. My father agreed to this marriage in order to curry favor with the Yang family."
Gao Haiqiong was surprised: "Young Master Yang is doing this for you, why don't you agree with it?"
Mu Yingying disdainfully said: "Seeing that I am poor, I am going to marry me. You think such a man is more reliable than my poor woman in this world. Wouldn't it be possible that I will marry home if I meet in the future, but my father disregards my wishes and agrees? After this marriage, the result was exactly what I expected."
"What happened at Prajna Temple"
Mu Yingying said: "The person is gone, and there is no need to say anything about it. However, I asked him to meet him at Prajna Temple that day to tell him about resigning. He did not agree to resign and said that I had no sympathy. Heart. We broke up unhappily. After he went back, he couldn't afford to be sick. After his death, I was also very guilty, so I said that I would stay for him for three years. But I didn't expect that the Yang family would let me marry and stay alive. ."
Gao Haiqiong asked: "In order to get rid of the Yang family, you focused on my prince."
At this meeting, Mu Yingying did not conceal: "I went to see the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, and saw that the prince took the princess as the most important thing, and I was envious. After the Lantern Festival, my father had another concubine, and the prince had love for the princess. Shen Yizhong has only been the princess in these years, and I have moved my mind that shouldn't be moved."
Gao Haiqiong couldn't believe what she heard: "You mean you wanted to take him from me because you saw that my prince was kind to me."
Mu Yingying nodded and admitted.
Gao Haiqiong asked in return: "Don't you think you are very submissive?" She felt that Mu Yingying was more disgusting than those women who wanted to cling to Qi Rui for the sake of prosperity and wealth.
Mu Yingying didn't deny it, she smiled and said: "It turns out that a real good man cannot be seduce by others."
Seeing her smiling, Gao Haiqiong was a little confused: "Why do you still seem to be very happy?" Normally, it should be annoyed or turned into anger, or even ashamed of seeing people. Why is Mu Yingying's attitude so strange.
Mu Yingying smiled and said: "I am very happy. Because Rui Wang made me believe that there are really men in this world who are not tempted by beauty. Wang Hao, I really envy you." She didn't live, to be precise, this Many women in the world do not have such a good life.
Gao Haiqiong could feel that Mu Yingying said this from the heart, and couldn't say anything cruel.
ps: onno~, the book will be finished in June, and a new book will be prepared in July.
