Chapter 230: The Waves Behind(1/2)
Perhaps because of the silence for too long, Mu Jinghong could not withstand such silence himself, and took the lead in breaking the unsuppressible silence, "Does the prince have nothing to ask?"
Chu Yi did have many doubts in his heart, but he also had some secrets. He did not force others to peel him off like this, because he could not give everything to her calmly for a while.
"If you are not convenient, you will not say it. I can see, perceive, and distinguish."
"The prince believes in me so much."
Upon hearing this, Chu Qi laughed, "What? At first, it wasn't the princess who wanted to cooperate with me and send me to the throne? Could it be that I was wrong?"
Mu Jinghong blushed for a moment and said uncomfortably: "Prince, be careful of the ears of the wall."
"The princess set up a net of heaven and earth here, who else dares to approach Ganquan Palace?" Chu Qi's words were purely joking.
"The prince is still injured, so I can't disturb the prince's rest," Mu Jinghong quickly turned around and went out so as not to talk further and further away from him here.
...
After dawn, Liu Shukuang appeared in front of Ganquan Hall.
After Mu Jinghong washed and had breakfast, he welcomed Liu Shukuang to visit the door. He came in so swaggeringly, and must have been ordered by the emperor to come over to do things. I don’t know what Chu Yu was going to do.
"I don't know what the matter is that Priest Liu came to the temple?"
"I follow the emperor's oral order and come to set up a formation for the king to protect the safety."
Mu Jinghong's eyes suddenly appeared on him and smiled slightly, "Then I'll have a chance to priest Liu, please come in there."
She moved out of the way and asked him to enter the temple.
Chu Qi on the couch had already woken up. Seeing Liu Shukuang coming in, he looked at Mu Jinghong standing behind him again.
Mu Jinghong said understandably: "Prince, I'll go outside and take a look."
When Madam Liu saw her coming out, she stepped forward and bowed and said, "Princess, it's Mrs. Mu Er who is here."
When Mu Jinghong heard that it was Gu's coming, he sighed in his heart.
After leaving the main hall and coming to the side hall, Gu turned around and held her hand tightly, his voice choked, "It's so difficult, how can I rest assured when I'm mother?"
"With the prince and the others here, my daughter has nothing to do."
I came here a few times, but I was indeed shocked and safe.
Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter carefully several times before she felt relieved.
"How about uncle?"
Suddenly, Mu Jinghong asked about Grand Marshal Gu, and Gu was a little stunned for a moment.
He hesitated for a while and said, "Your uncle is now staring at the Tu family, suspecting that the Tu family is the left and right hand of the emperor put outside. Now the Gu family has reached the point where they are about to confront the royal family. Your queen cousin seems to be in a bad spirit these days. Last night, he frequently invited the imperial physician to the palace for treatment."
Mu Jinghong's eyes flashed, "Now the Empress is being detained in the Xinde Hall, and she can't think about it for a moment, and she may be frustrated."
Gu looked at his daughter and was stunned again.
This sounds a bit strange, but it doesn't make sense. Gu just thought it was just a casual sentence, without deep thought, and did not take it to heart.
...
Just when Chu Yu put all his eyes on Chu Ji, there was a big problem with Jiang Wanfeng, and he had to turn his eyes first.
Jiang Zhongshu didn’t know what was wrong with his son, but suddenly he acted so unsteadily!
There is no shortage of officials who give gifts in the hunting palace, all for the sake of their son's future and being able to achieve half of their achievements in Jiang Wanfeng's hands.
Jiang Wanfeng, who had never accepted gifts, suddenly accepted a lot of official gifts. He was exposed by others, which made the emperor angry and called him to the convention hall and cursed him bloodily.
Jiang Wanfeng looked for other reasons and made excuses.
This matter was not stopped until evening.
Lu Wanqing stood at the gate of the hall, listening to Jiang Zhongshu standing in the hall and scolding Jiang Wanfeng for being worried.
"How did I explain to you before? Wanfeng, you are so disappointed to your father!" Jiang Zhongshu was so angry that he didn't know what to scold.
Jiang Wanfeng said: "Don't worry, Father, the emperor has not pursued it."
"But this time, you have lost some stains. When the emperor thinks about it, what should you do?"
"This matter is just a trivial matter," Jiang Wanfeng was still calm and did not panic at all.
Seeing his expression, Jiang Zhongshu couldn't help but be suspicious. His son has always been seeking stability and never does these things that harm oneself. I'm afraid there are other reasons for what he does today. Thinking of this, Jiang Zhongshu's eyes looked at Jiang Wanfeng with a deeper look.
Jiang Wanfeng knew what his father was thinking, and he could do this at this point.
After this, the emperor's eyes would be separated. As for what Lu Wenqing wanted to do, he would take advantage of this gap to do it.
"I ask you, what's behind this matter..."
"Father, there is nothing, it's just that the child is obsessed with it and has accepted some bribes."
"What do you want to say to your father?" Jiang Zhongshu knew that he was unwilling to reveal the reasons behind it. When he looked at his son like this, he frowned again, "No matter what the reason is, stop your next action."
"Save it as a kid."
Hearing the perfunctory, Jiang Zhongshu didn't know whether to be angry or what to do. His son wanted to cause trouble behind his back. He, a father, could only be careful of an accident.
He looked at his son and sighed, patted him on the shoulder, "Don't go too far."
"yes."
Jiang Zhongshu shook his head.
...
Lu Wanqing walked in and said warmly: "Why don't your husband tell his father?"
Jiang Wanfeng sat in the ring chair and said in a low voice: "What did Lu Wenqing say to you?"
Lu Wanqing was so excited that Jiang Wanfeng saw it that he said softly: "I didn't say anything, I just asked me to look at Princess Qi more."
"Looking at Princess Qi? Why?" Jiang Wanfeng was a little stunned, not understanding what Lu Wenqing was doing.
Lu Wanqing pursed her lips and said, "Maybe because Princess Qing knows some chess formations, she has solved many doubts for the elder brother. Therefore, I will watch Princess Qing's movements more."
Jiang Wanfeng leaned in the chair and thought of many strange things.
"What's wrong?" Lu Wanqing looked at his expression and asked carefully.
Jiang Wanfeng said: "Don't contact Princess there for the time being. Your sister-in-law is her own business."
"I will try my best to avoid it."
...
At noon, Mu Jinghong returned to the main hall.
Liu Shukuang and Chu Qi said for a long time, but didn't know what they were talking about. There was no abnormality when Liu Shukuang left.
Watching Liu Shukuang leave, Mu Jinghong asked someone to come in for lunch. After using it, he personally served Chu Ji and then took the medicine.
After taking the medicine, Chu Qi leaned on the pillow, looked at the busy Mu Jinghong, and heard her ask the maid if the snow rabbits were well fed.
The hares that Chu Qi wanted to return were kept in the hut outside and were not damaged.
Chu Qi gradually fell asleep as she listened to the sound of her talking to the maids.
Mu Jinghong looked back and saw that he had fallen asleep at some point.
After so much trouble, after the morning, Liu Shukuang came in and said for a long time, and he must have been tired.
After exiting the hall, Mu Jinghong and his maid looked for rabbit grass nearby. The weather was sunny and the cold wind passed by, and the wetland was blown dry in just half a day.
Mu Jinghong suddenly appeared beside the woods, attracting a lot of attention.
"Princess," Li Jiaoer led several maids from afar.
Mu Jinghong put the rabbit grass in his hand into the bamboo basket and looked at the visitor with a smile: "Sister-in-law."
This time, Mu Deyuan did not bring anyone else with him, only Mu Nanfeng brought Li Jiaoer.
"My father mentioned Princess Qi just now. The Mu family was sitting in the viewing pavilion to make tea. Princess Qi also went over to have a cup of fragrant tea together!"
Mu Jinghong heard that she asked herself over without turning around and not being oblivious, thinking that it must be Mu Deyuan's thing or something else was there.
"You two stay and choose some good rabbit grass. Mama Liu, follow me."
"Yes!" the three of them answered.
Li Jiaoer thought it would take some time to talk, but she didn't expect Mu Jinghong nodded and agreed.
In the viewing pavilion, Mu Deyuan and his son were sitting in front of the charcoal stove to cook tea. The fragrance of tea was everywhere and the cold wind drifted.
The two of them in the pavilion stood up and gave Mu Jinghong Xuxu.
Mu Jinghong asked the two to give a gift, and then sat in front, picked up the cup of tea handed over by Mu Nanfeng and started to taste it.
Li Jiaoer originally didn't want to stay here, but when she saw Mu Nanfeng pressing her hands, she signaled her not to avoid it before she could sit back.
"How is King Qi's injury? Are the medicine sent by the Mu family useful?" Mu Deyuan asked repeatedly.
"Thank you, Marquis Mu. The prince has improved a lot, and it's not a big deal."
Mu Deyuan's eyes flashed, and after a while, he said something unknown: "The Tu family was moving some time last night, maybe the thieves were still hiding in the hunting palace."
