The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort

Seeing Empress Dowager Zheng and Mrs. Rui coming back, everyone stood up and greeted them.

"Everyone sit down." After the Queen Mother Zheng took her seat, she waved to everyone with a smile, gesturing for everyone to sit down.

Everyone thanked them and sat down one by one.

After sitting down, a little maid brought the fat cat that Empress Dowager Zheng liked the most, and handed it to Empress Dowager Zheng's arms.

Empress Dowager Zheng hugged the cat and smiled.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager Rui smiled slightly, and turned to look at the people in the Plum Blossom Garden below, "Everyone is here, let's start."

After the words fell, a row of court ladies and eunuchs poured into the Meihua court, and began to serve tea and fruit snacks on each table.

After a while, there was already a full table on the vacant seat.

Mu Yunjin leaned back on the chair, looked at the things on the table, and silently tested it with the silver needle. After confirming that it was correct, she picked up the teacup and took a sip of clear water.

"Today's tea party was prepared by Empress Dowager Rui, and Ai's family is here to have fun." Empress Dowager Zheng stroked the cat in her arms and said with a smile.

"Where is the mother, if you are not here, what's the point of this tea party." Empress Dowager Rui smiled slightly, and looked at Empress Dowager Zheng.

Seeing that the two empress dowagers spoke up, some officials and wives who talked a lot also started to speak separately.

On the main seat, the two empress dowagers have roughly looked at some of the official daughters who came today, but they can't see any flowers just by looking at them, and they still have to rely on real materials.

"It's a bit boring to sit here. There are also many young ladies who came here today. Who will start first and show off their talents?" Empress Dowager Zheng raised her eyebrows and glanced around.

As soon as the words came out, almost all the official daughters who came raised their hands out loud, wanting to be the first to show off their talents.

In the end, Empress Dowager Rui first chose Chen Pu's youngest daughter, Chen Yuyan.

Chen Yuyan is just fifteen years old this year, not yet old enough to leave the court, but today she was also invited to this tea party with Mrs. Chen.

Sitting at the side, Mu Yunjin glanced at Chen Yuyan who was walking in the middle, and slightly curled her lips. She never expected that Master Chen Pu's youngest daughter was born so delicate and lovely.

While watching, the sleeves were pulled by someone, and when looking sideways, Chu Qingyuan came over and said in a low voice, "This Chen Yuyan was raised in the countryside by that little old man Chen Pu since she was a child, and she was brought back at the beginning of the year. .”

"Why do you have to raise it in the country?" Mu Yunjin was puzzled.

"It's because the imperial city is not safe." Chu Qingyuan curled her lips.

Mu Yunjin smiled lightly, but did not speak.

After Chen Yuyan finished her performance, Queen Mother Zheng and Queen Mother Rui applauded, which made the rest of the official daughters wait anxiously.

Afterwards, Empress Dowager Rui ordered Wen Jingxi, the daughter of the minister of punishment.

After a circle of singing, dancing and musical instruments, a morning passed quietly...

During the process, Mu Yunjin had quietly yawned several times, but the two empress dowagers in the main seat were still watching the performance with great interest, completely enjoying it.

After all the ladies from the official family finished their performances, the eyes of some of the officials' wives were fixed on the Empress Dowager Zheng and the Empress Dowager Rui.

The two empress dowagers actually thought that these official daughters were all good, but if they really wanted to choose a concubine, it mainly depended on Chu Ye's own opinion, and they could only provide a reference.

At present, there are so many young ladies who look good, but it is really difficult to choose.

When her thoughts were wandering, Empress Dowager Rui noticed Chu Qingyuan from the corner of her eye, her eyes lit up, she looked over, and immediately changed the subject, "By the way, Qingyuan..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Chu Qingyuan.

"You are about to reach the age of leaving the court. Last night, the queen mother chatted with your father for a long time, and she chose two marriages for you. One is the original fourth prince of Donglin Kingdom, the current Yang Wang Rong Jin, and the other is marriage. The second prince of Beiming Kingdom, Bei Qilu, I wonder which marriage you are more interested in?" Mrs. Rui looked at Chu Qingyuan with a smile on her back, but the emotion in her eyes was not as enthusiastic as before.

Hearing this, Chu Qingyuan silently clenched her fists and pursed her lips. The Empress Dowager Chaorui shook her head, "Reporting to the Queen Mother, the ministers don't even like it."

When the Empress Dowager Rui heard Chu Qingyuan's words, a bit of sharp anger suddenly appeared on her smiling face.

The atmosphere in the Plum Blossom Court suddenly felt a little oppressive and dull.

On the side, some officials and wives with better eyesight saw that the situation was not right, and some of them were the first to speak up...

"Princess Nine, His Royal Highness King Yang of Donglin Kingdom and His Royal Highness Second Prince of Beiming Kingdom are both dragons among men!" said an official wife.

"That's right, and it's said that none of them have married wives, not even a concubine."

"I think Princess Nine can consider the marriage of Beiming Kingdom. After all, Princess Ning is the princess of Beiming Kingdom. With this relationship, no one would dare to treat Princess Jiu badly." The person who spoke was Mrs. Yan.

When Chu Qingyuan heard this, she couldn't take it anymore, she couldn't help reaching out her hand quietly, holding Mu Yunjin's wrist, and cast a look for help.

Mu Yunjin understood, her eyes were frivolous, she glanced around at the wives of the officials, and lazily said, "The empress of Beiming Kingdom died of illness recently, and the second prince has asked for his order to be a filial piety for his mother for three years..."

"As for His Royal Highness Yang Wang, I heard that he was weak and sick since he was a child, and has been suffering from illness all day long..."

As soon as Mu Yunjin's words came out, all the wives of the officials who had been chattering had shut their mouths and dared not speak anymore.

Empress Dowager Rui and Empress Dowager Zheng glanced at each other at this moment, and they really didn't know much about His Royal Highness Yang Wang and the second prince of Beiming Kingdom.

Bei Qilu had to keep his filial piety for three years, and Chu Qingyuan would be eighteen years old in three years, so she absolutely couldn't wait.

This Yang Wang Rong Jin is weak and sick, so he might be able to...

This would require Chu Qingyuan to marry, and with the matter of Concubine Rong before, maybe many people would think that they were deliberately targeting Chu Qingyuan.

It seems that these two marriages have been chosen for a long time, so they can only let it go.

Seeing that Queen Mother Rui stopped talking, Chu Qingyuan was overjoyed and cast a grateful look at Mu Yunjin.

Sure enough, Sixth Sister-in-law had a way, and blocked the Empress Dowager Rui back with just a few words.

Mu Yunjin saw that the atmosphere in Plum Blossom Court fell into a downturn again, she pursed her lips, and smiled slightly, "Reporting to Queen Mother Rui, regarding Xiao Jiu's marriage, His Highness King Ning has already helped Xiao Jiu choose a suitable family, Empress Dowager You don't have to worry about Xiao Jiu."

The Empress Dowager Rui twitched her mouth when she heard this, "Since that's the case, the Ai family will not interfere in this matter."

Mu Yunjin smiled and nodded.

For a while, the people in the Plum Blossom Court had their own thoughts.

"Oh, there are a lot of people missing in the Plum Blossom Garden this year..." Empress Dowager Zheng sighed suddenly, expressing her feelings.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Zheng changed the subject, some of the more interesting officials and wives immediately agreed with her.

Soon, the Plum Blossom Garden was full of excitement again.

"Hey, Mrs. Li, the golden step on Ling Qianjin's bun looks familiar..." During the chat, Mrs. Yang from the servant of the Ministry of Rites pointed to the two people not far away.

As soon as the words came out, everyone's attention turned to Mrs. Li and Ms. Li from the county magistrate's family.

Seeing that she was being watched by everyone, Mrs. Li was a little frightened. There are so many official wives and daughters present today, only their master has the lowest official position, a seventh-rank middle county magistrate.

So during the performance just now, I didn't let my daughter show off too much, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"After being told by Madam Yang, I think I've seen this Jin Buyao somewhere before." An official's wife said.

"Yeah, it does look familiar..."

After a while, Mrs. Yang, who was speaking just now, suddenly exclaimed, and said excitedly, "I remembered, this golden step was worn by Miss Qin before..."

As soon as this remark came out, the audience fell silent.

Miss Qin...

Qin Muyue...

Nowadays, no one knows that this person is a traitor of the Xiyuan Kingdom, and this name is a taboo of the Xiyuan Kingdom...

Now that Mrs. Yang said this, who would dare to answer it!

Mrs. Li didn't expect that she took her daughter to the jewelry store to choose Bu Yao, which was also worn by Qin Muyue. She immediately pulled her daughter Li Yingxuan out and knelt on the ground.

"My wife is terrified. I bought this step at Cuiyunxuan on the street. I didn't expect to bump into Miss Qin..." Mrs. Li said tremblingly.

Li Yingxuan immediately took off the Bu Yao from her bun, her body was also trembling, and she dared not speak.

"It's okay, it's just a similar golden step, don't panic." Empress Dowager Zheng was a little embarrassed, smiled, and came out to smooth things over.

Mrs. Li's heart just fell, only to hear Mrs. Yang speak again, "Empress Dowager, my wife has something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Tell me." Although the Empress Dowager Zheng was displeased that Mrs. Yang continued to talk about this matter, since she had spoken, she couldn't help but refuse in shame.

"The jewelry worn by Ms. Qin has always been gifted by the palace or carefully crafted. How can it be the same as the ones sold in shops on the street? Is there something strange about it?" Mrs. Yang raised an issue again.

Mrs. Li naturally understood Mrs. Yang's words, no doubt they were suspecting that they had an affair with the rebels and took advantage of the rebels.

Who can bear such a big crime!

"Madam Yang, if you don't believe what I said, you can go to Cuiyunxuan to confront the boss. I took Xuan'er to buy this golden step just yesterday." Madam Li said.

Madam Yang sneered and rolled her eyes, "Who knows if the boss was bribed by you!"

Mu Yunjin looked at the arrogant Mrs. Yang, and suddenly laughed softly.

This smile attracted everyone's attention.

"What is Yun Jin laughing at?" Queen Mother Zheng said with a smile.

When Mu Yunjin heard this, she looked towards Queen Mother Zheng, "I'm just joking, who would be so stupid as to flaunt around wearing jewelry given by the traitor?"

"Princess Ning, what about this identical Jin Buyao?" Mrs. Yang asked, seeing that she was choked by Mu Yunjin, unable to pull her face back for a moment.

"I don't know why this Jin Buyao is exactly the same, but you, why are you so sure that Miss Li's Jin Buyao is Qin Muyue's?" Mu Yunjin also raised a question.

Mrs. Yang was startled, and opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer.

Indeed, she was upset because she saw that Li Yingxuan danced better than her daughter just now, and she finally remembered that Qin Muyue also wore this gold step rocker, so she made some articles on it.

I didn't expect that Mu Yunjin would come out to help...
