Chapter 164: Marriage Given in the Spring Year (2 / 2)

“Perhaps because she is pregnant, she makes less fuss.” From Sister, she replied truthfully.

“She’d better be at peace, or I’ll make her death a painful one when the time comes.” The old madam coldly grunted.

“Old madam, we just got the news that the Pingxi Little County King is no more.” From Sister whispered.

“When did it not,” the old lady asked in a low voice, estimating the situation.

“Ten days ago.” From Sister continued, “Old Lady Pingxi County has been staying at the mansion these days, and it looks like she will be spending the Spring New Year at the mansion.”

“Over the spring year,” the old lady coldly grunted, “this county king went, since the meeting, she must go back.”

“If that’s the case, then by the time Old Lady Pingxi County comes back after the funeral, I’m afraid that the Fourth Princess will have given birth as well.” From Sister continued.

“She’s afraid she won’t have the life to return.” The old madam said in a deep voice, her eyes shattering with a cold light.

“This,” whispered from Sister, “the Fourth Princess will do it.”

“There will be someone who will do it.” The old madam rubbed her brow, “There’s no need to worry about these, she ah’t have that blessing anymore, and the Pingxi County King’s Mansion has disappeared.”

Sure enough, the old lady of Pingxi County got to wish gravel to go after the news, immediately fainted, the emperor has issued a decree, ordered her to return to Pingxi to send a funeral, the old lady of Pingxi County, even if the heart is not willing to go back, now since it is to go back, and at that moment will be simple to pack up a little bit, sitting in the carriage to leave.

Mu Zi Yan had gotten the news since, her eyes flashed a faint smile, “The organs are all calculated, but it’s just a basket of water.”

“Smokey, what exactly do you think this Old Lady Pingxi County is scheming for” Niangzi Lu snorted, “Her granddaughter has become a concubine, her grandson is gone, and this Pingxi County King’s Mansion is gone as well.”

“It is she who has calculated too shrewdly.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “This time, I’m afraid I won’t be able to return.”

Mu Zi Yan said faintly, so after three days, then came the news, Pingxi County King’s old lady’s carriage rolled down the cliff, the corpse is not survived.

Inside the Long Pine Courtyard, after receiving the letter from Sister, she whispered, “Old Lady, if you’re so dead, what about the Pingxi County King’s House?”

“Since it is no more.” The old madam said faintly, “It only depends on what this Aunt Zhu should do”

“Elder Lady, who do you think is responsible for this?” said Sister Yu, thinking that it could not be the Fourth Princess.

“Who hates her most in the world,” the old lady asked with a sneer.

“Aunt Zhu,” From Sister’s eyes flashed with a flash of surprise, “Aunt Zhu this is too ruthless.”

“Of course, the old madam is going to poison her to death with her own hands.” The old madam coldly snorted, “This bitch can’t stay for long.”

“The old slave understands.” From Sister whispered.

At the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office, Niangzi Lu looked at Mu Ziyan, “You said it was Aunt Zhu who did it.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan faintly answered.

“This,” Niangzi Lu sighed, “I can kind of see that no one from this high family is simple.”

“And all of them are hard-hearted.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

“Smokey ah, it’s really not easy for you to survive until now.” Niangzi Lu was secretly glad that she was not from that high sect since.

When Mu Zi Yan saw Niangzi Lu sighing so much, she just smiled faintly, in her previous life, she was chewed to the bone in the end.

“Sister Lu, have you thought about what to do in the spring year” Mu Zi Yan asked with a smile.

“I,” Nymphet Lu thought for a moment, “have done so in past years.”

Mu Zi Yan thought for a moment and then said, “Why don’t you go to my residence”

“Good.” Nyx Lv readily answered.

Mu Zi Yan continued, “When the time comes, there will be a gathering since then.”

“But you only have three days.” Niangzi Lu laughed lightly, “I’m afraid that Mrs. Marquis Mu can’t wait for you to be by her side for these three days.”

“That’s not necessarily true.” Mu Zi Yan muttered, “When father returns, where is I in mother’s eyes”

“You girl, plainly even Marquis Mu and Mrs. Marquis Mu are poking fun at each other.” Lady Lu laughed lowly.

“Am I wrong,” Mu Zi Yan whispered, “I will hold my younger brother when the time comes, and I will not bother father and mother since.”

“Haha.” Niangzi Lu laughed lowly, “I will certainly tell Lady Mu Hou exactly what you said this morning.”

“Just go ahead and say yes.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and said smugly.

In Lanxin Yuan, Aunt Zhu gently caressed her pregnant belly, the corner of her mouth hooked up with a smug smile, and she turned her eyes to Ruqin, “Are your hands and feet clean?”

“Don’t worry ma’am, it didn’t leave the slightest trace.” Ruqin returned.

“That’s good.” Zhu Yue coldly laughed, “Grandmother is old, and she should go to accompany her brother when he goes.”

“Madam, the Pingxi County King’s Mansion can be considered completely gone.” Ruqin whispered.

“If it’s gone, it’s gone.” Zhu Yue coldly said, “That place doesn’t belong to me.”

“Madam, the Third Master is here.” The outside maid reported.

“How could you come back at this hour,” Zhu Yue said to himself in puzzlement.

Only saw Mu Qinglin has walked in, to see Zhu Yue color rosy, spirit than some days ago a lot better, this brow between the eyes also more a few points of the smile, walked forward, “body can be better.”

“En.” Zhu Yue answered softly, “Why did Min Zhi come back so early this morning?”

“Do you know about Old Lady Pingxi County” Mu Qinglin asked as he looked at her.

Zhu Yue’s eyes slightly converged, sadly said, “I just found out.”

“I came back because I was worried that you were sad and cried your body out.” Mu Qinglin took Zhu Yue in his arms and comforted him softly.

Zhu Yue raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes overflowing with tears, but his heart was mixed, but in the end, he chose the father of this child.

Jun Yufei’s body was getting heavier and heavier, “Prepare yourself, return to the palace tomorrow.”

“Yes.” Pin’er hung her head and responded, “Your Highness, returning to the palace at this time”

“It’s just right to return to the palace now.” Jun Yufei whispered, “While I can still move.”

“Yes, slave girl will go and prepare.” Pin’er answered and then retreated.

Jun Yufei gently caressed her bulging belly and whispered, “Child, Mother will definitely give birth to you, you are my last hope, my last attachment in this world, don’t worry, Mother won’t let you go unloved.”

“Your Highness, there are people from the palace.” Pin’er entered the room with her head hanging down and reported.

“En.” Jun Yufei gathered her thoughts and whispered, “Come in.”

Not long afterward, they saw the grandma from the Empress Dowager’s followers enter the room and spoke respectfully, “The old slave sees Her Highness the Princess.”

“What is the Empress Dowager’s decree,” Jun Yufei asked faintly as she remained lying down.

“Your Highness, the Empress Dowager has asked the old slave to fetch you back to the palace.” The Sister returned with her head hanging down.

“It just so happens that this Palace is preparing to return to the Palace, so since Sister is here, let’s move immediately.” Jun Yufei said in a deep voice.

“Yes.” The Sister answered, and at that moment, she left the Marquis Mu Mansion along with Jun Yufei, heading to the palace.

Mu Qinglin had been staying at Zhu Yue’s place, and now that he had learned that the fourth princess had returned to the palace, he merely responded faintly, apparently not caring much.

“The fourth princess is going to give birth.” Zhu Yue said as he looked at Mu Qing Lin.

“Also wait until after the spring year.” Mu Qinglin, who knew the time, looked at Zhu Yue and said.

“En.” Zhu Yue nodded his head and responded, “Min Zhi remembers clearly.”

“Old madam mentioned it.” Mu Qinglin lowered his eyes and rubbed her lips, “Yue’er is jealous.”

“Eh.” Zhu Yue responded with her eyes downcast and petulant.

“Ai, it’s a pity that I can’t hurt you nowadays.” Mu Qinglin sighed, only feeling that his body today was getting worse and worse.

Zhu Yue also found out that the drug since it is powerful, so she knew that Mu Qing Lin love her, but still choose the side.

For the capital, the absence of a Pingxi County King’s Palace is not surprising, even the ten great families of the Lei family was destroyed, the last is also just a matter of time, think of what is a big deal in this capital

In the blink of an eye it was the day Mu Ziyan entered the capital, the night before she went back to the mausoleum, Yunxiang’s body is also much better, and now can walk, but can not be too strenuous, the good thing is that this way is to take the carriage, so Mu Ziyan is also relieved a lot.

Mu Zi Yan looked at Aunt Ling on the side, “Aunt Ling, I’ll have Yun Fei come back to spend the Spring New Year with you and Sister.”

“Slave servant thanks the eldest miss.” Aunt Spirit was overjoyed with herself, and immediately knelt down to salute.

Mu Zi Yan smiled and went forward, helped Aunt Ling up, rested for the night since, and early the next morning, took Yunxiang and Bi Yun in a carriage to the capital.

This was different than her disguise and disguise to enter the capital, but in turn, it was a bit more exciting.

When the carriage entered the capital, Biyun and Yunxiang were overjoyed, and even their eyebrows were all excited.

She said with a light smile, “That’s hilarious.”

When the carriage arrived at Marquis Mu’s residence, Mu Zi Yan got down from the carriage and saw Qi holding Mu Ling Jue already standing outside the residence waiting for her, not only Qi, Su Qin Rou and Hou Yi Yi, Qi Xue’er and Qi Yu’er, Mu Ling Xuan and Qi Xuan, as well as Zhang Staffer, Zhang Zong, and Lu Niangzi were all there.

This could make Mu Zi Yan a little surprised, thinking that this is not just leaving, but now it is so grand to greet her, it is inevitably a little exaggerated.

But her heart was permeated with warmth, how could she not be happy that her loved ones and friends were all safe and sound in her presence

In her previous life, she had never felt this much warmth since she entered the family temple at the age of ten.

She smiled and stepped forward, bowing toward Qi, “Mother.”

“It’s good to be back, it’s good to be back.” Qi looked at Mu Zi Yan and couldn’t help but feel her eyes redden.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at them, “Rather, they are all here.”

“Sister Mu, when you came back, I had to come since.” Su Qinrou said with a smile.

“Yes, first cousin.” Qi Xue’er called out with all her strength, thinking that in the past, she had called her Lu Er Sister, and thought that it would be more comfortable to call her First Cousin.

Qi Yu’er came forward and took Mu Zi Yan’s hand, “Eldest cousin, I missed you.”

Mu Zi Yan raised her hand to touch Qi Yu’er’s hair and laughed lowly, “See, it’s stuck.”

“Don’t even stand outside.” Mu Lingxuan said with a smile.

At that moment, all the people will be clamoring together into the Marquis Mu House, such a scene has been many pairs of eyes to see, since there are envious, there are also cynical.

Mu Zi Jing learned that Mu Zi Yan came back, since the front to meet, when he saw the people standing outside the house, the heart is really not a taste, then secretly go back.

Shuang’er followed by her side, “Third Miss, don’t be sad.”

“Big sister is so happy.” Mu Zi Jing whispered, “Having the love of father and mother, and the affection of so many others.”

“If Third Miss were the Marquis’ daughter, she would have done the same.” Shuang’er whispered in relief.

“Yes, if I am pity, my life is just a delusion.” Mu Zi Jing once also coveted, but now is just delusional, she is very clear about Mu Zi Yan’s means, more understand, now her situation, to be able to live peacefully is not easy thing.

Mu Zi Yan is leading the crowd to the smoke fall courtyard, Qi went back to the Jiyue courtyard, since it is not to go to this lively.

When she entered the courtyard, Mu Zi Yan looked at the familiar furnishings in front of her, took a deep breath, and secretly sighed, finally she was home.

“Sister Mu.” Su Qin Rou pulled Mu Zi Yan, but she sat down nonchalantly.

Mu Zi Yan smiled and sat down, Yunxiang and Biyun since busy, Cui Hong guarded the yard, since it has not seen Mu Zi Yan for a long time, rejoicing, so they also followed in and out.

When the refreshments were set up, the group sat down and talked and laughed.

“Sister Mu, tomorrow since she is going to enter the palace.” Su Qinruo continued, “Zhong Xuan is a side consort, so she can’t enter the palace, but she is a disciple of Mingyue Academy, so she is qualified.”

“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, “The red rash on her face subsided”

“I don’t know.” Su Qinru came forward, “Sister Mu, do you know that the Emperor is going to give the Fifth Princess a marriage tomorrow?”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “But I’m curious as to whom to bestow the marriage to”

At that moment, all eyes fell on Staffer, who was visibly stunned and coughed lightly in slight embarrassment, “It wasn’t me.”

“Nowadays, besides Cousin Zhang, who else would there be,” Mu Zi Yan asked with an unavoidable smile.

Chapter Staffer’s eyes lowered, a flash of gloom flashing under his eyes, “Brother Qi, ah.”

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to Qi Xuan and nodded slightly, “Rather.”

“His Majesty will not bestow the princess to me.” Qi Xuan smiled warmly, obviously very certain.

“That’s not necessarily true.” Mu Lingxuan spoke from the sidelines, “The Fifth Princess is gentle and skillful in nature, so she is a good match for Brother Qi.”

“Eldest cousin don’t make fun of me.” When Qi Xuan heard this, his complexion lurched and he hurriedly returned.

“Not really.” Hou Yi Yi continued, “I heard that it was the Fifth Princess herself who fell in love with her.”

“Fancy yourself” Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at her, her eyes flashed with a touch of surprise, so she opened her mouth curiously.

“En.” Hou Yi Yi continued, “Not the son of a worldly family.”

“Then who could it be,” Mu Zi Yan became more and more puzzled.

“Sister Mu, this person you recognize.” Hou Yi Yi said as she looked at her.

“I recognize,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes picked up slightly and asked with a smile, “Who is it?”

“I heard that it is Duke Chu.” Hou Yi Yi continued.

“He” Mu Zi Yan froze for a moment, low laugh, “he is not with Lin An County Princess close interaction it if it is given marriage should also be Lin An County Princess is.”

“Sister Mu said it well.” Su Qinrou concurred, “Where did you hear that?”

“I’m just casually guessing.” Hou Yi Yi continued, “Consort Liu mentioned it, saying that it wasn’t a descendant of a family, so I thought of Duke Chu.”

“This Duke Chu is not seen or heard, and the Fifth Princess is not like the Sixth Princess who has been out of the palace, and the two of them have not crossed paths, so how could it be him,” Niangzi Lu said faintly from the sidelines.

“Yes.” Su Qinrou nodded her head, then looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Sister Mu, what do you say”

“That’s true.” Mu Zi Yan put down her tea cup and raised her eyes to look at Su Qin Rou, “He is not in the capital now.”

“Sister Mu, I’ve heard that tomorrow, County Lord Lin’an will also be there.” Su Qinrou said with an excited face.

“Even if Sheriff Lin’an goes, I’m afraid she won’t show her face.” Qi Xue’er smiled and spoke.

“That’s true.” Hou Yi Yi echoed, “I haven’t seen it since that day.”

“She has always been mysterious.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly, “We will meet if we are destined to.”

“Sister Mu, who do you think this Fifth Princess really likes” Su Qinrou continued to ask.

“Since it’s not the son of a family, it’s since unexpected, and we can only wait until tomorrow to find out.” Mu Zi Yan said with a light smile.

“Sister, father will arrive this night.” Mu Lingxuan said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.

“En.” Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to Su Qin Rou, “Sister Su is the one who wants to stay.”

“Ah” Su Qinrou was obviously stunned, and immediately reddened her face, “What am I staying for”

“The ugly daughter-in-law has to see her in-laws since.” Mu Zi Yan joked.

“Rather forgot.” Hou Yi Yi hastily agreed.

Qi Xue’er looked at the duo in front of her and then asked, “Eldest cousin, I’m worried that this time when I enter the palace, what if the Emperor gives a marriage”

“I have not reached maturity, even if the marriage is granted, the empress dowager there will not agree.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “Therefore, tomorrow’s entry into the palace is afraid that there will be another thing.”

“What is it,” Su Qinrou couldn’t help but be curious.

“Since it is a happy event.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile, “Cousin and Cousin Zhang should be careful.”

The man looked at each other and could only swallow his bitterness in his stomach.

Mu Lingxuan looked very interesting, raised his eyes and looked at Mu Ziyan, then said, “Sister, when will the Empress Dowager declare you to enter the palace?”

“We’ll go early tomorrow morning.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “Since everyone is in one place today, why don’t we get together more often.”

“Even if you came back, you are not at peace.” Mu Lingxuan sighed, and then said, “It is good for everyone to just sit in one place and chat for a while.”

“I remembered something.” Qi Xue’er suddenly spoke.

“What is it,” Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Xue’er and asked with a smile.

“Where is Lei Shizi,” Qi Xue’er whispered, “I remember the last time I went to the hot springs manor, Lei Shizi seemed to have said that he wanted to return to the capital.”

“Why is cousin so concerned about Lei Shi Zi” Mu Zi Yan asked with a crooked smile.

“Ah,” Qi Xue’er froze on the spot, and then said, “I just thought that tomorrow’s spring year, if Lei Shizi enters the palace, it would be the best.”

“That’s not what sister Mu asked you.” Su Qin Rou went to make fun at this moment.

Hou Yi Yi followed suit and joked, “Yeah, you can’t answer the question.”

Qi Xue’er immediately turned red, “I’m just asking, how could First Cousin climb up on me?”

What’s going to happen in the Spring Palace tomorrow, heh heh heh.
