Chapter 294 Seeing Through the Red Dust
Chapter 294 Seeing through the world of mortals
After Xiaoman finished speaking, he looked at Mu Yexing, and found that Mu Yexing was just looking at him without saying anything, so he couldn't help coughing twice.
"His Royal Highness, if you are fine, Yongxi will leave first. As for your physical conditioning, the usual imperial physician will be fine."
After finishing speaking, Xiaoman quickly turned around and left. She was really worried that His Royal Highness took advantage of his power to keep her here!
Fortunately, Mu Yexing is not such a person. She and Qian Jiujiu have discussed who Mu Yexing was at the beginning, at least he is an aboveboard person.
When Xiaoman returned to the palace, it was already noon, and the housekeeper saw that Xiaoman had come back: "Little man, please greet the county magistrate, county magistrate, are you back?"
Listening to the housekeeper's words, Xiaoman nodded with a smile: "Yes, I'm back. I've been exhausted for a while. I went to play with the two children. I haven't seen each other for a while."
Hearing Xiaoman's words, the butler didn't become suspicious. After all, Xiaoman went to the prince's side. Only Qian Jiujiu, Mu Yexiao and others knew about this matter, and it spread.
It's not good for Xiaoman, anyway, Xiaoman is also a twelve-year-old girl, and she has been serving the prince's body for so long, if people know about it, I'm afraid it will attract gossip.
When I came to the toy room, I found that the two children, who still didn't know each other, had a good time playing, and Xiaoman's heavy mood improved a lot. The housekeeper has been by Xiaoman's side since just now.
Xiao Man glanced at the housekeeper beside him: "Steward, first remove all the things in the mansion, big red, it will be necessary sooner or later."
Although the housekeeper was a little puzzled, he didn't say anything, he just turned around to do this matter, that is, from this moment on, all matters in Xiao Wang's mansion were decided by Xiao Man.
But Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao stayed in the palace all the time, Qian Jiujiu watched Mu Yexiao and the queen just sitting like this, neither of them spoke.
Seeing that several hours had passed, the two of them were still so motionless, how could Qian Jiujiu feel relieved, so he stood up, and Mu Yexiao took a look at Qian Jiujiu.
Qian Jiujiu nodded at Mu Yexiao: "You continue to sit here, I'll go and prepare some food for you and the queen mother."
After finishing speaking, Qian Jiujiu left. In fact, why not give the mother and son a chance to chat alone! After Qian Jiujiu came out, she went directly to the small kitchen.
He took out the ingredients from the space and started making some millet porridge. Caixiu soon came in and looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Princess, come here as a servant."
Qian Jiujiu shook her head: "Anyway, my concubine has nothing to do. By the way, Caixiu, what are your plans in the future? You want to go out of the palace to work in the palace."
"It's fine to stay in the palace, or give you freedom. You should think about it for yourself. After all, you have served the mother and concubine all your life."
"My concubine should have you in her heart, or else, after your concubine arranges for you, you can say whatever you think."
When Caixiu heard this, she immediately kowtowed to Qian Jiujiu: "My servant thanked the concubine for her kindness, but this servant only wants to continue to pray for the empress in the future."
"So ask the princess to help, send the servant to the imperial tomb, the servant will pray for the empress and the emperor near the imperial tomb."
Qian Jiujiu was surprised: "Have you thought about it? You are only 25 years old this year, and you still have a good time. Are you really going to guard the imperial tomb?"
Caixiu nodded: "Yes, this servant has made up his mind. The servant will continue to serve the imperial concubine."
Qian Jiujiu sighed: "Okay, this princess will find a way to arrange for you to be the aunt guarding the imperial mausoleum. Before that, you can think carefully, and you still have a chance to choose."
Caixiu kowtowed: "The maidservant kowtows to thank the concubine for her success."
Qian Jiujiu sighed, and continued to concentrate on making porridge, not knowing what was going on with the awkward mother and child in the room? At this time, Mu Yexiao and the queen in the room were indeed talking.
Mu Yexiao didn't even move his eyes, and said directly: "Mother, do you really hate mother and father?"
The queen didn't expect that Mu Yexiao would still talk to herself, and felt a little jealous for a moment: "Do you hate? There should be some, but now I see the two of them lying there quietly."
"I suddenly feel that everything is not important. I have never intervened between them. Even if I was jealous of Concubine Qing, I have never done anything to hurt her."
"It is because of this matter that I have a selfish intention. In the future, I will set up a small Buddhist hall in the palace to pray for those who have passed away and those who are still alive."
Mu Yexiao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "Is the queen mother trying to see through the world of mortals?"
The queen laughed at herself; "I don't seem to have been in the world of mortals, so how can I see through it? Forget it, now hate or love, everyone is gone."
"What else can I care about? In the days to come, it's just a day-to-day life. If it's you, live a good life with Jiu'er."
"By the way, take your father, mother and concubine to see this beautiful river and mountain together. It might not be a good thing."
Of course, Mu Yexiao also knew that this was a good thing, but after all, he had to wait for the world to be peaceful. If he left now, he would be ashamed of Da Zhou and the former emperor.
Seeing that Mu Yexiao remained silent, the queen cautiously probed: "So Xiao'er, are you not angry with me?"
Mu Yexiao smiled wryly: "Father and imperial concubine can die for the sake of mother and concubine. Is there anything doubtful about what the mother said?"
Joy flashed in the queen's eyes, but her son's understanding of her was after his husband lost his life, which made the queen bitter.
"As long as you believe in the queen mother, it's fine. The queen mother has been cruel and merciless in her life, but she is the only one who can't do anything to the two people on the bed. In the end, she was rejected by them. This is fate."
"In ancient times, there was Ehuang and Nvying, so that's just ancient! The love between three people will eventually hurt someone."
But Mu Yexiao didn't say anything, Ehuang Nvying, so the queen has always thought this way? Mu Yexiao was silent because he didn't know what to say.
Qian Jiujiu also came in at this time, with three bowls of porridge on the tray, looking at the two people: "Queen Mother, Prince, please eat something. Even if you stay here, you need to be strong."
"What's more, is it true that the prince and queen mother will not go to the enthronement ceremony tomorrow? Will this implicate the prince? The dead are gone, and the living are more important."
Mu Yexiao glanced at Qian Jiujiu: "This king knows, and this king will stay in the palace to help."
Only then did Qian Jiujiu breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at Mu Yexiao: "It's good for the prince, if you have something to do, you can always divert your attention."
Mu Yexiao took the porridge and drank it just like that, while Qian Jiujiu was wondering, how would the Emperor and Concubine Qing clasp their fingers like this, how would they put on the shroud?
After taking a closer look at the two corpses on the bed, Qian Jiujiu discovered that the shrouds of the emperor and imperial concubine Qing were all put on, and it looked like a couple's attire.
"My lord, the shrouds worn by the royal father and the imperial concubine?"
Mu Yexiao said: "The mother and concubine should be worn by the emperor, and the father should be worn by himself. Don't think about it. When the day of the national funeral comes, just carry the father, mother and concubine into the dragon coffin."
Qian Jiujiu snorted, since Mu Yexiao had made up her mind, she didn't want to say any more. The queen looked at Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao after finishing her porridge.
"Jiu'er, Xiao'er, go out and help the prince. As for tomorrow, I will go there too, but for now, let me stay here with the late emperor."
Qian Jiujiu hummed, exchanged glances with Mu Yexiao, and then left together. When going out, Qian Jiujiu sighed; "Mu Yexiao, I think the Queen is so pitiful."
Mu Yexiao was speechless, and looked at Qian Jiujiu after a while: "Jiu'er, I'll go to the Rites Department to help, you go and see the dragon robe."
Following Mu Yexiao's orders, Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu started a busy day, almost 24 hours without rest, and the dragon robe finally succeeded.
And Mu Yexiao also worked with the prince to successfully turn the scene of the prince's canonization into the scene of the emperor enthroning. Of course, all these changes because the time was too short.
The Qian people have not reacted yet, and Princess Qingling is still happy about Mu Yexiao's change of attitude towards her, and she is in the room of her father, His Royal Highness King Ming.
"Father, you don't know that King Xiao, who has lost his memory, is really gentle when talking to his daughter. And King Xiao who has no beard seems to be even more handsome."
"My daughter likes it so much."
However, King Ming snorted coldly: "I like a fart, Qingling, let me tell you, Mu Yexiao is at most a puppet to you, if you get your mind set on a puppet."
"I don't think you should carry out this task anymore, you should change someone."
How could Qingling County Lord be willing? It was hard to find a sense of presence here in Mu Yexiao. How could he not want it? He looked at King Ming and said, "Oh, father."
"Isn't my daughter happy? We are one step closer to completing the mission, and besides, you can rest assured that someone else will control Mu Yexiao?"
King Ming was silent, but Princess Qingling was looking forward to the fact that Mu Yexing would ask the emperor to accept her as a side concubine at tomorrow's crown prince canonization ceremony.
As for the position of the concubine, Qian Jiujiu would have to give it up sooner or later. Thinking of this, Princess Qingling became even happier, and the corners of her mouth couldn't stop rising.
Now all he had to do was wait for tomorrow's crown prince canonization ceremony, but thinking of Lin Chuwu, Princess Qingling felt very upset again, and glanced at King Ming.
King Ming had already turned around and left: "You give me a good night's rest in the room, and tomorrow I will go to the prince canonization ceremony with me."
Princess Qingling obediently hummed, but after King Ming left, Princess Qingling became restless, seeing that there was no one around.
Snorted coldly: "Lin Chuwu, I'll make a big fool of you tomorrow."
