Chapter 009: What a pity
"Sir Xiaohua..." The white-faced father-in-law ran into the tall figure in front of him and retreated to the bottom of the steps.
Mu Jinghong nodded slightly to the visitor without panic, and his attitude was calm.
Under the palace lantern, a deep dark color was illuminated by the man's face, making his facial edges more profound.
A black official uniform embroidered with auspicious clouds and a straight official crown made him feel a sense of vague integrity.
The moment he saw Mu Jinghong, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
As soon as he stood aside, the lights hit his face.
The face under the light was even more smooth and fair, with clear edges and corners faintly revealing coldness. The dark and deep eyes were filled with a clear color. When they were close, Mu Jinghong could see the thick eyelashes trembling slightly, and his high nose made a faint shadow on his face. With this thin and full lips, it vaguely showed the somewhat ostentatiousness in his bones.
Hua Xieying, the legitimate son of the Hua family, was in the eighth rank of official position, and was once a serious top scholar.
His father was the second rank, and when he saw others, he called him "Mr. Little Flower".
"Bold, who are you? You dare to trek into the previous dynasty political affairs hall."
When the white-faced father-in-law saw clearly that the person standing in front of Hua Xieying was a girl's house, he was shocked and his white face turned even whiter.
The flowers faded and the shadow stood under the palace lantern, squinted slightly to look at Mu Jinghong.
"Look at your outfit, but the family members who attended the banquet in the harem tonight?" Although Hua Xieying was questioning, she was sure.
"It's...I've been lost by mistake."
Mu Jinghong's stuttering voice stunned Hua Xieying, and then curled her lips and smiled. Her thin and full lips had a strange smell, which reminded people of the bright crescent moon in the night sky.
"So it's Miss Seven of the Mu family!"
When the white-faced father-in-law heard this, he stopped his words.
But Mu Jinghong looked up at the fading shadows in surprise.
Suddenly seeing his unruly smile without any authority, Mu Jinghong was a little unresponsive.
I remember the last time I met this person, this person was still serious and respectful.
"Miss Mu Qi is really just lost?" The man standing in front of him asked with a smile.
"yes."
"Mr. Xiaohua, have you done the important business first? The emperor is waiting." Seeing Hua Xieying's plan to stay here and speak, Baimeng reminded him quickly so as not to delay the important business.
Mu Jinghong remembered his purpose of coming here, "Mr. Hua is... for... Duanmu family... to meet the emperor?"
Hua Xieying's lips curled more vividly, and her black eyes flashed with light, "Oh? Miss Mu Qi is very interested in the Duanmu family? You don't know that the Duanmu family is a taboo in the Northern Tang Dynasty?"
"Sir Xiaohua." Baimian father-in-law reminded him again without tears.
"Eunuch Li, Duanmu party can no longer find any footprints, and it is also a result of rushing. However, Miss Mu Qi is a little suspicious when she gets lost from the harem to the previous dynasty at this time!" Hua Xieying's smile was tempted with exploration.
Eunuch Li glanced at Mu Jinghong, who was depressed and frowned, and combined with the question she had just now.
If it weren't for the Queen's cousin, she would have been taken down long ago.
"I like... Qimen escape technique... so... I'm very concerned about this matter."
Hua Xieying's eyes became a little dark, and she suddenly smiled, as bright as a star, "Miss Mu Qi, you can't mention this kind of words in front of outsiders in the future. For the sake of Miss Mu Qi's love, your mouth is more reliable."
Eunuch Li was stunned and laughed, "Yes, yes, yes, the servant heard nothing."
Hua Xieying moved forward with a tall figure, approaching Mu Jinghong, and suddenly pressed the belly of a finger on her forehead.
Mu Jinghong was forced to raise his head and blinked at him when he saw the smiley flower under the lamp.
A little naughty.
“…”
"Miss Mu Qi, you are here!" A palace maid ran from afar, and it was Gindew.
Mu Jinghong turned behind Hua Xieying, and blessed her body in a regular manner, "Thank you, Lord Xiaohua..."
Hua Xieying held one hand behind her and looked at her.
Mu Jinghong, who had withdrawn a few steps, suddenly turned around and asked, "Sir Xiaohua... Why did you help me?"
Hua Xieying flexed her fingers gently, and her tone could not tell the emotion, "I just felt sorry."
He walked into the hall corridor with his hands facing Mu Jinghong with his back.
Mu Jinghong turned around and met Ninglu, who looked pale, "Sister Ninglu... I wanted to... walk around... and accidentally got lost."
Ninglu breathed a sigh of relief, wanting to blame, but she met Mu Jinghong's clear eyes, but couldn't say anything to blame, "I'd like to ask Miss Mu Qi to go back quickly with me. Miss Seven has not returned for a long time. Mrs. Mu may be anxious."
Mu Jinghong nodded quickly, followed Ninglu back to the embroidery hall, and changed into the water-blue dress.
Looking at the brand new Mu Jinghong, the people in the embroidery hall couldn't help but exclaim.
Jinghong, Jinghong, and Mu Jinghong's appearance are worthy of this name.
Mu Jinghong didn't care much about his appearance.
The words of Hua Xieying made her, who was walking on the way to Fengyi Palace, make a self-deprecating voice.
What a pity?
Ninglu was afraid of accidents, so she repeatedly told Mu Jinghong not to tell anyone about what happened to him just now.
Mu Jinghong agreed repeatedly and entered Fengyi Palace.
Gu couldn't wait for his daughter to come back, and was about to send someone to urge him, but he came back.
The dew condensed to the side of the queen and said softly the reason.
Others couldn't help but look at Mu Jinghong more and said to myself that the Queen is really concerned about this cousin. The material of this clothing is the royal silk.
Gu knew that Gu Chenxiang was kind to her daughter and secretly took it to her heart.
Until the family dinner ended, the emperor did not show up.
Gu Chenxiang's concubine did not appear. When the banquet ended, she left Jingyang Gate and saw two maids of Gu Yuheng standing next to one of the carriages. Xiao Jiang pressed his anxiety in his heart, steadily headed towards her daughter's carriage, and then left silently.
Gu was talking to Yang, and agreed on when to go back to the house. He got on the carriage separately, and several carriages drove out of the palace at the same time.
"Clang!"
Not far from the palace gate, a sudden impact sounded.
The cars in front and behind stopped. Someone lifted the curtain and saw the scene at night, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Min'er!"
A sudden shrill voice came, and everyone seemed to understand something.
It was the purple-clothed girl who mentioned Duanmu Zunyue in Fengyi Palace before that something happened. Somehow, the carriage was overturned with no warning.
Gu held Mu Jinghong's hand that was about to lift the curtain and shook his head, "There will be someone to clean up the mess later. You are still weak and tired today. You should go home soon to rest."
Mu Jinghong took back his hand and nodded without knowing anything.
Gu knew that his niece was very revengeful, but she was just a wrong thing and could not tolerate it.
Gu is glad that he is from the Gu family and is closer to Gu Chenxiang than others.
In the second half of her life, it would be enough to protect her daughter. Gu would not go to trouble for the rest.
Holding his daughter's slightly cold hands tightly, looking at her healthy daughter, Gu felt satisfied.
