Chapter 200 Don't Avoid

Zong Zhengying's whole body is thick and shaved, including hair and no makeup. His face was clear, without any trace of grief. Unlike ordinary people kneeling to thank the spirit, but with a straight posture, standing there and thinking far away. The two Tong Fang in front of Yang Guokang cringed and knelt behind her, not even daring to cry. Just like this, the three of them got together, making the guests who came and went to mourn more and more quiet.

Mu Xiyao was dressed in an apricot white skirt and jacket, with only a magnolia silk flower pinned on her head, half a step behind Helian Minmin, and walked into the mourning hall side by side with Su Linrou.

As soon as she entered, she saw Zong Zhengying standing tall and proud, if she didn't know that she was newly widowed, Mu Xiyao would have thought that this woman was also one of the hangers-on.

The mourning hall is completely white, and the smoke and dust of incense candles and candles is rising. After offering sacrifices according to the ritual, Mu Xiyao followed everyone back to the female guests and stood still. As soon as she raised her head, she met Zong Zhenglin's eyes.

Today, the Sixth Highness was dressed in jet-black court attire, and he looked even more deserted. Just looking at it quietly, it is very majestic.

Why is this man looking at her now? Mu Xiyao staggered slightly, and only secretly sent a glance over.

Your Highness, I think you are so stern today, I think it looks very good-looking.

After Zong Zhenglin came down to court, he and the princes came one step ahead. At this time, I saw the young and middle-aged women in the family's family who were delicate and pretty, so I naturally took a second look. I never thought to draw a wink from her secretly.

Zong Zhenglin listened quietly to the bereaved master's mourning, but he paid attention to Mu Xiyao's movement from time to time. In such a quiet and solemn occasion, it was rare for the little girl to behave herself without playing tricks. Just when she felt that she had made progress, she saw the woman's little head nodding twice, and immediately raised her head cautiously and looked around, seeing that no one was paying attention, she was buried even lower, that appearance, she was clearly dozing off.

I didn't torment her hard last night, even if I got up early occasionally, I didn't get enough sleep. Mu Xiyao was spoiled by him and became more and more lazy, and she was the only one who could take the time to make up for sleep on this occasion.

In the ear is the ancient prose that I can't understand, the prose is deep and difficult to understand, and the length is long and complicated, which makes Mu Xiyao feel like falling asleep. Lying in the coffin was a man whom she had never seen before, and who was extremely contemptuous. To be able to follow the crowd and put on a show is already an indomitable courtesy.

Didn't you look at the man in hemp and filial piety above, all of them looked like they had nothing to do with him? This vigil is so good that it is intended to make the dead angry.

After finally making it through the cutscene, Mu Xiyao went out with the crowd, went to rest in the yard, and only waited for her highness to come and pick her up.

Helian Minmin had guarded "her" for a whole night to give birth, and afterward she treated each other indifferently, without even the slightest trace of politeness. Su Linrou was already delicate, and her legs and feet were already weak after standing for half an hour. At this time, she brought her maid to the kiosk to point at people and call for kneading. Mu Xiyao disliked the strong smell of incense and candles in the room just now, so she brought Mammy Zhao, Mo Lan, to breathe in the yard.

"Today, Mrs. Mu is really outstanding. Seeing her seductive appearance, the man can't stop looking there."

"Don't tell me, if you live a good life, you will naturally be liked by men. I never heard that His Highness the Sixth Prince is so spoiled."

"That's right. Attending the full moon banquet at the Prince's Mansion at the beginning of the month, the rules and regulations are far beyond, and not far from that of the Dizi. I don't know what kind of tricks the Mu family used to make His Royal Highness think so highly of her."

"It's so strange. I heard that the woman is very skilled in bed, and can fascinate men to death."

Yo, if you go out and walk around, you can be caught talking bad things by her. There are several people under the eaves in front of the corridor, but they don't know any of them. Could it be that something new happened when she was in confinement?

"My lord, the people on the left who are talking are all the deputy commanders of the Jinzhou Fire Cavalry Battalion who have recently entered the capital, and the wife of the general's family. They are under the command of the crown prince. Most of the people next to them are the family members of the captain under the command of the fifth and eighth princes."

Is she so hated? All the officials' wives in Jinzhou know that she is charming and seductive? Mu Xiyao raised her brows, her Highness disliked her for not taking the initiative yesterday, but everyone outside admired her a lot. I don't know what the intentions of the people behind it are.

The prince...hasn't offended that one recently. Mu Xiyao was puzzled.

"Why, the dignified side concubine is also willing to eavesdrop behind someone's back?" Zong Zhengying was expressionless, and shot her cold eyes straight. In the meantime, resentment almost gushed out.

Looking at the people behind her, Mu Xiyao understood instantly. On the other hand, Helian Weirui reported the good deeds she did? No wonder Zong Zhengying gouged out her eyes so deeply and powerfully before the funeral just now.

"This road is going in this way, why come to overhear? I am quite surprised that I came so casually." She raised her eyebrows and looked at the people not far away who stopped her voice in embarrassment and avoided her eyes. Mu Xiyao felt ashamed at all. none. She is the one who talks about people's right and wrong behind their backs.

"Are you proud today?" Zong Zhengying lowered her voice and approached her ear. "Did you think that no one would know about the good deeds you did behind your back? I tell you that the pain of being humiliated and bereaved today will definitely be returned in the future."

"What does the fourth princess mean, I'm sorry I don't understand. If the princess is too sad, I can only say... I hope you take care." Want to get revenge? Then we have to see if we have this ability. She didn't intend to let this woman who found fault repeatedly continue to make such noise.

Zong Zhengying cried bitterly in front of Emperor Yuan Cheng on the basis of her husband's loss, and eventually Emperor Yuan Cheng felt compassion and relieved her from being restrained. That's good too, so as not to leave such a hidden danger in the princess mansion.

"Don't think that with Zong Zhenglin's protection, you will be safe and sound. The sixth emperor is just an emperor."

Mu Xiyao saw that she dared to say anything behind Zong Zhenglin's back, but she was always ungrateful in front of others, and was forced by the man's aura so that she had to avoid his edge. I secretly reflect on myself, is it too kind and easy to deceive, so that people have no scruples?

But Zong Zhengying said something wrong. Zong Zhenglin is really not just the emperor's younger brother...

"Master, Your Highness is calling for someone to come and look for you." Mammy Zhao couldn't see Ye Kai gesturing to this side, and knew that the master was missing, and sent people to look for him, but it was inconvenient for Ye Kai to show up when he arrived here.

"Your Highness the Sixth Highness is waiting in front of you, so I will leave first. The princess is better to mourn." Mu Xiyao followed the rules and bowed her knees before leaving.

"The side concubine walks slowly. The concubine gave me a big gift last time, and I am very grateful." Helian Weirui, who had been silent all this time, suddenly made a sound, which made Mu Xiyao pause when she turned around.

gratitude? If this look could be gratitude, her eyes would be blind in vain. Just looking at Helianwei's ruthless smile, Mu Xiyao knew that this woman hated her to the core.

As soon as confinement came out, all kinds of ghosts and snake gods came to her door. As expected, except for Zong Zhenglin, no one really liked her very much. Mu Xiyao smiled slightly after being pointed at for trouble.

"It's good if you like it, and you will get used to it if you have more."

Helian Weirui's expression froze, she stared straight at the smiling woman in front of her with her lips pursed. Without a man by his side, Mu's posture is completely different. Without being delicate and soft, she looks gentle and kind, but in fact she has hidden wits. Only in this way can he match up with the person in her impression.

This is Helianweirui's thinking wrong. Today is to express condolences, Mu Xiyao is to avoid taboo. On a normal day, if you provoke her, no matter whether there is anyone around you, you will be rampant in the mansion. At least in the eyes of He Lian Minmin and Su Linrou, Mu Xiyao has never been a soft-hearted person, and it is not a day or two for this woman to be a domineering person.

With a wrong step, Mu Xiyao walked around the two of them. Seeing her slender and graceful waist, Zong Zhengying dismissed without waiting for her to open her eyes, her eyes flashed sternness, she pulled out a horsewhip from her cuff and lashed at her vest in broad daylight.

"Wait a minute, princess!" Helian Weirui turned pale with shock, Zong Zhengying was extremely stupid to act so clearly. The ladies and ladies standing in the distance obviously noticed this end. Zong Zhengying waved the whip, and in the eyes of outsiders, they were the first to attack.

Mu Xiyao narrowed her eyes, and the jade pendant on her chest suddenly became hot. The sound of the sudden attack behind her made her suddenly startled. Just as he was about to turn sideways to avoid it, he saw two people coming side by side in front of him.

The movement that was intended to dodge came to an abrupt end, and Shi Shiran continued on with a slight smile.

The rescue action of the female guard behind her was right to make a move. Hearing the master yell to stop in a low voice, the hesitation in the blink of an eye was too late to stop.

"Master!" Mo Lan's face was pale, and she rushed forward. Before she could push the man away, the horsewhip that was chasing from behind suddenly broke into two pieces and fell limply to the ground.

"What are you doing!" Zong Zhengming's face was gloomy, completely gone from his usual gentleness and modesty, and his long and narrow eyes stared at Zong Zhengying furiously.

"The old ancestor asked you to keep watch in front of the hall, so you are doing evil outside and hurting innocent people? Did the emperor's soft heart make you worse?"

Zong Zhengying's expression tightened, she flicked the whip with her stiff hands, turned around and left.

"Stop! Where did you learn the rules? You don't know how to greet people when you see them?" Zong Zhengming saw her domineering and domineering. Afterwards, he didn't know how to repent and left in a fit of anger.

"Fourth brother, fifth brother." Zong Zhengying gritted her teeth and turned around, saluting hastily.

"Let's make a note of today's incident. If you commit the crime again, the Empress Dowager will go and receive the punishment herself."

"Fourth Sister, it's better to return to the mourning hall immediately." Zongzheng Yun gave her a gloomy look, and then rolled his eyes to be overly frightened, there was still panic in his eyes, Mu Shi, who was already soft in the arms of the servant girl, had a very ugly expression on his face.

"Princess, please ask my concubine to accompany you back." Helian Weirui went up to greet the two Highnesses, and helped Zong Zhengying to leave in a hurry.

"The princess was reckless just now."

"This was just a warning. I didn't want the people around her to be so helpless. If she was injured, it would be her own savior's weakness." Zong Zhengying's face turned red, and she was already ashamed to be scolded by Zong Zhengming face to face. Now Helian Weirui said no clearly again, and her tone became even more impatient.

"Princess thinks so?" Helian Weirui chuckled, with an intriguing tone, "The maids following Mrs. Mu, according to His Highness, are all martial arts practitioners."

Zong Zhengying stopped suddenly, and turned her head to stare at her with a terrifying face.

"You're saying that she intends... How dare a bitch bully me!"
