"Your Majesty, Concubine Xue wants to see you!" Butler Liu's voice sounded outside.
Feng Junhan said calmly: "Please come in, Concubine Xue!"
Although Mu Xueyuan usually wears a bright red palace dress that can only be worn by a head wife or a legitimate daughter in Prince Jing's Mansion, because in her heart, she is arrogant and comes from a noble family, so she should naturally wear bright red, and there is no need to wrong herself.
But later, under Li Xianghui's persuasion, she was advised to keep a low profile, at least not to wear red dresses in front of the prince. She accepted this suggestion. Today she is wearing a green palace dress, which is fresh and attractive, and her face is also delicately painted.
makeup.
Feng Qingcheng and Feng Changhuan stood up at the same time, "Second brother, let's go out first!"
Mu Xueyuan is not Ning Jing Wan. When the second emperor brother and Ning Jing Wan are together, the brothers don't need to avoid it, because they all know the relationship between the second emperor brother and Ning Jing Wan. Feng Changhuan can even have an earth-shaking quarrel with Ning Jing Wan, but Mu Xueyuan
It's different. It's not always convenient for their brothers to be there.
After Feng Qingcheng and Feng Changhuan left, Mu Xueyan suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Feng Junhan frowned, "What crime is Yan'er guilty of?"
Mu Xueyan spoke sadly, "It's Yan'er. It's Yan'er who didn't strictly discipline the palace's servants, which caused them to criticize the master behind his back. Now that the princess's sister is suffering from rumors, Yan'er feels really sorry and came here to apologize to the prince.
, I beg you to punish me!"
Mu Xueyan lowered her head, but she did not hear the prince's voice, but a brief silence. Mu Xueyan didn't know what the prince was going to do, but felt the silence in the air was terrifying.
Suddenly, a pair of strong hands lifted Mu Xueyuan up from the cold ground. Mu Xueyuan raised her head and looked at the unparalleledly handsome prince, looking dazed. Feng Junhan chuckled: "Since it was the people from Prince Jiang's house who caused the incident, and
What's Yan'er doing?"
Mu Xueyan lowered her head, "But these rumors are flying everywhere. It is Yan'er who hurts the princess sister because of her poor discipline and being too kind to her servants. How can Yan'er feel at ease?"
Feng Junhan smiled faintly, "How does Yan'er know it's a rumor and not a fact?"
Mu Xueyuan's expression changed. She didn't expect that the prince would say this. She was just retreating in order to test the prince's attitude. Will the prince take this opportunity to divorce Ning Jingwan this time?
The prince is a member of the royal family, so it is impossible for him not to care about reputation. The word "illegitimate daughter" symbolizes shame. What will the prince do?
Mu Xueyan hesitated and said, "Is it true? Sister Wangfei is really..." She couldn't say those words, but the meaning was already clear.
Feng Junhan's handsome eyes were half-closed, and he leaned elegantly on the chair behind him, "What does Yan'er think this king should do?"
Mu Xueyan was startled and said coquettishly: "How can Yan'er know these things? As long as Yan'er can help the prince take care of the palace and let the prince have no worries, Yan'er will be satisfied. How can she dare to interfere with the prince's affairs?"
Li Xianghui said that a man dislikes a woman who interferes in his affairs, so he must be cautious and measured in front of the prince, and never try to interfere with the prince's decision.
"Yan'er does a good job taking care of the affairs of the palace!" Feng Junhan said with a faint smile on his lips.
When Mu Xueyuan heard these words today, she smelled something different from the past. This was not the first time that the prince praised her ability to manage the palace, but today's words contained a thin layer of anger.
Mu Xueyan knelt down hurriedly, "It is indeed Yan'er's fault that things have turned out like this. Please punish me, otherwise Yan'er will have trouble sleeping and eating!"
"Yan'er!" Feng Junhan's voice did not rise, but it had an aura that could not be ignored. When Mu Xueyuan caught a glimpse of the prince's seemingly gentle but cold eyes, her heart sank, "Yan'er will obey the prince's instructions!"
Feng Junhan smiled half-heartedly, "What are Yan'er going to do with those servants who dare to gossip about the master?"
Mu Xueyan said: "Of course it will be handled according to the rules of the palace and sent to the training room!" The training room is a nightmare for the servants in the palace. If you enter there, you will lose your skin even if you die!
Feng Junhan nodded slightly, "Yan'er, I don't want this kind of thing to happen again!"
Feng Junhan's voice was gentle, but Mu Xueyan was frightened when she heard it, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Yan'er will strictly discipline and restrain the servants in the house, and there will never be a next time!" Mu Xueyan promised steadfastly.
Feng Junhan chuckled, "Very good, thank you for your hard work, Yan'er!"
★★★
Mu Xueyan returned to Piaoxueyuan uneasily and was restless. Yunxiang saw her at the side and said, "Miss, do you want me to invite Mrs. Li over?"
Mu Xueyan nodded, feeling anxious in her heart. The prince's incomprehensible smile made her feel cold. She didn't know how much the prince knew, or whether he was aware of this matter and that she was involved behind the scenes.
She was the instigator of killing someone with a borrowed knife, and the Jiang sisters were just used by her.
Li Xianghui came quickly, and had already heard Yunxiang talk about Sister Mu's reaction along the way.
Mu Xueyan told Li Xianghui in a few words what the prince had just said to her, and Li Xianghui remained silent.
Yunxiang was anxious, "Mrs. Li, please help our young lady quickly and give her some advice!"
Li Xianghui muttered: "Sister, don't be alarmed. We did this without leaving any trace. Apart from a few of us, who else knows?"
As soon as these words came out, Mu Xueyan felt relieved. Yes, there were only three of her planning here at that time. They were all reliable members of her own family. It was absolutely impossible for the news to spread. Who else would suspect her? The Jiang family sisters
Jealous of Jing Jing Wan being Princess Jing, what does the matter between their sisters have to do with her and Mu Xueyan? What a waste of time!
But when she thought of the prince's unexplained smile, her heart began to lift again, "I don't want this to happen again!"
Such a thing? What kind of thing? The prince did not say it clearly, leaving it to you to think and guess. She wonders if the prince realizes that she, Mu Xueyan, is the manipulator behind this matter?
"Sister, has the prince said what he plans to do?" Li Xianghui asked. At present, what they are concerned about is whether the prince will divorce Ning Wan.
Mu Xueyan shook her head, "I don't know!" The prince's thoughts were always unpredictable, and it was not something she could figure out.
Yunxiang suddenly remembered something, "Miss, I heard that on the night when the princess punished the third young lady of the Jiang family, the prince went to Jingyuan!"
Mu Xueyan's expression changed, "How could you tell me such a big thing?"
Yunxiang's face turned pale and she hurriedly knelt down, "It's because I neglected my duty, because I forgot, and I deserve to die!"
"Forget it, sister, Yunxiang didn't mean it. It seems there are too many things happening recently!" Li Xianghui advised.
The prince actually went to Jingyuan? Mu Xueyuan became even more panicked. Once the rumors of an illegitimate daughter spread, Jingping Wan became infamous. The prince actually went to her Jingyuan at this time?
Li Xianghui asked: "When did the prince come out?"
Yunxiang thought for a while, "It will be out in about half an hour!"
Mu Xueyuan breathed a sigh of relief. The prince rarely favored any woman recently. He went to Jingyuan unexpectedly. Fortunately, he came out after a while.
Li Xianghui said slowly: "If the prince goes to the princess's quiet garden at this time, it seems that he will not divorce the princess!" By doing this, the prince means that he does not care about the princess's reputation, otherwise, he will not be called the princess as before.
The further away she is, the better, out of sight and out of mind?
Mu Xueyan's face darkened, "Xianghui, this is a good opportunity for us, can we let it go like this?" If we don't take advantage of this opportunity and force the prince to divorce Tranquility Wan, how long will it take?
Yunxiang also said: "Yes, Mrs. Li, think of a solution quickly!"
Li Xianghui looked at the eager sister Mu and sighed, "Sister, please be patient. This matter cannot be rushed. The princess' words and deeds are unreasonable. There are always opportunities, but if we offend the prince, we will lose more than we gain!"
Mu Xueyan was a little disappointed. Didn't she know that what Xiang Hui said was the truth? But if she had to give up such a great opportunity and set up such a situation so hard that she could just stay out of it, how could such a good thing happen twice in the world?
?When will the next opportunity come?
Li Xianghui suddenly said: "We can't influence the prince's decision, but there is one person who can influence the prince's decision!"
Mu Xueyan's eyes lit up, "Are you talking about...the Emperor?"
Li Xianghui nodded, "The princess was married by the emperor at that time. Logically speaking, even if the prince neglects the princess, he would not dare to divorce her. But as long as the emperor orders it, if the princess is notorious, has bad morals, and has lost the royal dignity, the prince will definitely be able to divorce her.
Divorce, princess!"
Mu Xueyan smiled, why didn't she think of this trick to wipe out the firepower?
"But Ning Ning Wan was married to Ning Ning Wan by the emperor, and the emperor may not be ignorant of Ning Jing Wan's background. Now he has decreed that the prince divorce the princess and change the order overnight. Wouldn't it be more disgraceful to the royal family?" This is a real problem!
Li Xianghui said: "So we have to put pressure on the emperor!"
Mu Xueyan understood that more than half of the courtiers in the court were his father's disciples, and they only needed secret instructions from his father to admonish the officials.
In order to maintain the dignity of the royal family and to enhance the style of a Zhengfenglin country girl, Princess Jing must be abolished as a concubine in order to rectify the imperial court!
She did not believe that those venerable, sanctimonious, and eloquent veterans would allow an immoral illegitimate daughter to become the noble Royal Princess Jing? Some of them would automatically join the ranks of denouncing Ning Jing Wan without even needing their father's permission.
When the time came, the voices in the court asking for the abolition of Princess Jing became louder and louder. She did not believe that the emperor could be completely indifferent. At that time, it was not up to the prince to decide whether to abolish Ningjing Wan or not!
As long as the emperor issues the decree again, Ning Jing Wan and the prince will never have anything to do with each other. She no longer has to worry about Jing Jing Wan threatening her position. She has never taken these other women in the palace seriously!
And the whole thing had almost nothing to do with her, Mu Xueyan. She was the scapegoat and completely stayed out of the matter. This time, God was really helping her!
