Three hundred and fortieth IX: The Person Who Doesn't Open His Eyes Appears
With the birthday party of Princess Qing coming to an end, the rumors between Lin Zhu and Mu Qiyue have also subsided. However, at this time, Mu Qiyue has become the focus of attention again, and his every move will attract people's attention, so even if
He was determined to hunt bamboos, but he had to worry about whether he would be discovered.
In the last period of time, Princess Qing seemed to be very busy, and she paid little attention to Mu Qiyue's marriage. But this does not mean that this matter has been let go, but that most of the things have been left to the people below.
.
Including which girl to choose as his wife and which girl to be his concubine. This kind of thing that seems ridiculous to outsiders is common for Mu Qiyue. From childhood to adulthood, everything he does is caused by
It was all done by the servants, and Princess Qing almost never really cared about it.
Since the servants were in charge, there was a lot of news going around. Today it was said to be a young lady from Master Sun's family, and tomorrow a girl from Master Qi's family was appointed. This satisfied the gossip-loving people in the capital and gave them something to talk about every day. Mu
Qi Yue's choice of wife turned out to be a joke.
"Do you want me to come forward?" Emperor Mu Qingyu called Mu Qiyue to the palace. Firstly, he wanted to discuss some matters, and secondly, he was concerned about his situation.
"It doesn't matter, it won't take a few days anyway, and those people won't be able to jump anymore." Mu Qiyue said nonchalantly.
"Haha, the capital is much more lively this year because of you." The emperor couldn't help but joked. "I heard that Miss Lin Zhu has been hiding from the limelight in the countryside recently?"
Mu Qiyue glanced at the curious emperor, sighing secretly that he finally found a chance to laugh at him. "Perhaps it was because it was too hot in the capital that he went to the countryside."
Mu Qiyue opened his eyes and told lies. It was already the crisp autumn season, how could it still be hot?
The emperor naturally knew that he did not want to say more, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for Miss Lin Zhu to get into the eyes of the emperor." He said it to Mu Qiyue as if casually.
"Do you really think I don't know what they are planning?" Mu Qiyue snorted coldly. "If I want to be the heir apparent, it's as easy as picking something out of a bag, and I still need help from my maternal family?"
The Emperor also deeply believed in this point. He had proposed many times that the position of Crown Prince of Prince Qing's Mansion should be decided in advance. He also had the right to decide. Whoever Prince Qing chose as Crown Prince would have to be approved by the Emperor.
But because Mu Qiyue had always had little interest in that identity, he just didn't interfere.
"If there are no mistakes, the emperor's uncle will probably let Mu Qichen inherit the throne. I heard that he recently found a concubine from his hometown as a concubine." The emperor's eyes flashed.
"Not only him, Mu Qicheng is also involved." Mu Qiyue curled his lips, his eyes full of ridicule. "I must have been optimistic about it at the birthday party that day."
"Did they really believe what the monk said back then?" The emperor learned this secret from the late emperor. He also told Mu Qiyue when he first met him.
"It doesn't matter whether the monk's words are true or false. What's important is that they have to find an excuse for their failure, and I'm honored." Mu Qiyue said expressionlessly.
After talking to the emperor, Mu Qiyue quickly left the palace. He mainly told the emperor that he was going to teach some people a lesson. Moreover, if someone in the court went too far, the emperor would also let Mu Qiyue
Solve it privately.
And Mu Qiyue is like a sharp blade hidden in the dark by the Emperor, who will only pull it out of its sheath once in a while. But Mu Qiyue will pull it out twice in a row. It's all for his own private affairs, and of course he has to inform the Emperor.
The emperor also wanted to take this opportunity to give some people in the court a warning. Don't think that he can be underestimated just because he has only been on the throne for a few years. When necessary, it is not bad to let some people who form cliques be a little conflicted.
s method.
Mu Qiyue returned to Prince Qing's Mansion. The butler appeared in front of him with a smile on his face. "Congratulations, Fourth Young Master." He congratulated him as soon as they met, and Mu Qiyue was a little confused.
"Haha. The princess has already chosen a young lady for the fourth young master. In a few days, she will not send anyone to deliver the Geng Tie. It won't be long before the fourth young master's good news is close." The housekeeper explained Mu Qiyue's doubts.
"Oh, from which family?" Mu Qiyue raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect it to be so soon. He thought it would take a while.
"It's Fang Yuting, the daughter of Fang Xiu's family, the Minister of Civil Affairs. She is 28 years old, virtuous and quiet, and is a good match for the fourth young master. The princess also made the decision after careful consideration." The butler spoke without revealing anything, not only did he talk about the woman's
Okay, even Princess Qing’s hard work has been taken into account. I just want to make Mu Qiyue feel grateful.
However, his wishful thinking was in vain. Mu Qiyue just nodded and said that he understood, then turned and went back to the house. Li ignored the housekeeper who was standing there, and did not even say a word of comfort.
The housekeeper was stunned. He didn't know what was wrong. He was very surprised at Mu Qiyue's performance. His face turned gloomy in an instant. Except for Prince Qing and Princess Qing, no one in the palace gave him any dignity, not even Mu Qiyue.
The eldest young master is always very polite when talking to me, and he even gives some rewards from time to time.
And Mu Qiyue was a well-known rich man in the house, so the housekeeper took over the job of delivering messages, and he was more or less interested in getting some benefits.
Unexpectedly, let alone the reward, Mu Qiyue didn't even give him a good look. The housekeeper secretly hated him, but because Mu Qiyue was in the spotlight now, he didn't dare to make any more mistakes. He was not in a hurry because of Mu Qiyue.
Qi Yue's status in the house, if you want to make things difficult for him, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. The housekeeper secretly decided to regain his position in the future.
Ignoring the housekeeper, Mu Qiyue turned around, and his face immediately turned gloomy. "I did it after all." Mu Qiyue couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
According to the information collected by Lu Mingtao, the daughter of the Minister of Civil Service, although she is the legitimate daughter of the Fang family, is an uneasy master. Not only is she petite and willful, she is also snobbish and mean, and she has a habit of being submissive to others.
She has good plans, but she is domineering and domineering towards people whose status is inferior to hers. She also offended many people, but Fang Xiu is the protégé of Mu Qichen's father-in-law and obeys his words.
It seems that Princess Qing had deep intentions in choosing this man's daughter to be his head wife.
Mu Qiyue looked at the weather outside the house. It was clear that the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly just now, but why did it become gloomy in the blink of an eye?
It seems that some people's chairs are about to move.
However, Mu Qiyue was not in a hurry. He heard that Princess Qing was planning to arrange all his wives and concubines in one go. In a few days, there should be news about which daughter would become his concubine.
He picked up the letter from Lin Zhu from the table and sent it to Muyue Trading Company. The letter expressed great concern for his situation and also advised him to be more open-minded and to use the troops to cover up the water and the earth.
As soon as Mu Qiyue saw this letter, his mood immediately improved. From their previous interactions, he knew that Lin Zhu was not a soft-tempered person. Now it is easy to see from the wording in the letter that he is also a person with a temper.
Lin Zhu's concern came at the right time. Because of the series of actions of Prince Qing's Mansion, Mu Qiyue's mood was greatly affected, which made him a little gloomy. In addition, his personality was a bit depressed, so the way he handled things recently
It's a bit simple and crude.
Now that my mood has calmed down, it’s time to think about how to make these people quit. If you are sensible, you should reject this marriage. If you insist on moving forward, don’t blame me for being evil-minded and ruthless.
Mu Qiyue's expression turned ferocious for a moment, but fortunately no one saw it. He didn't want to expose his true nature in front of everyone in Prince Qing's residence just yet.
Ever since Mu Qiyue moved back to Prince Qing's Mansion, Mu Yun was no longer with him. Except for Lu Mingtao, who found him a servant, the others were all from the Prince's Mansion.
Therefore, no matter what he does, he will not let the servants of the palace do it. Those people with ulterior motives have never done anything, which makes the people behind them very disappointed.
So whenever Mu Qiyue was about to go out, someone would always rush to his side to do this and that, just to let him take him out.
How could Mu Qiyue give these people a chance? Why did Mu Qiyue wander away with only the servant?
Then we walked around the streets, not necessarily going directly to Muzue Trading Company. Just like before, we went to wherever the excitement was. However, we definitely stayed away from those places with fireworks.
The reason why Mu Qiyue went around in circles was because ever since he refused to be followed by people in the house, he found that whenever he went out, there were always people following him from afar or close by.
You don't need to think about it to know who sent it. Do they think that they can find out their secrets? Mu Qiyue knows with his toes that these people just want to find out all kinds of information in Muyue Trading Company, especially
This is the origin of specialty rice.
So Mu Qiyue often played hide-and-seek games with these people, sometimes weaving in and out of the crowd, and sometimes taking a tea break in a certain shop for an hour or two. This made these people exhausted and achieved nothing.
Of course, it also made some people in Prince Qing's Mansion very popular.
But this time, Mu Qiyue didn't hang around for too long, and soon entered Mu Yue Trading Company.
Lu Mingtao, who was reconciling accounts with the accountant, was very busy in the dark. When he heard that Mu Qiyue was leisurely drinking tea in the room, he felt an unknown fire in his heart.
"Fourth Master, I have something going on at home recently, so I may have to go back for three to five months." Lu Mingtao said carelessly.
"Okay, you can finish what you are doing, and you can go back for three to five days." Mu Qiyue didn't know what he was thinking. It was just because his identity was leaked, or he was just doing everything as before.
It was just annoying to leave it to him alone.
"I have something interesting to do, will you go back?" Before Lu Mingtao could refute, Mu Qiyue told him the names of several more people.
"Oh, how can these people offend you, Fourth Master?" Lu Mingtao immediately became interested. He has done this kind of sinister things, which can really dispel the depression in many hearts.
"No way." Lu Mingtao knew from Mu Qiyue's eyes that these people were probably inseparable from his marriage. He actually wanted to attack his future father-in-law, well, only this fourth master could do it. (Unfinished)
