Chapter 386: The Attitude of Prince Qing’s Mansion
After returning to the General's Mansion from Princess Changmin's Mansion, Lin Zhu sat down in her room and then breathed a sigh of relief. Aunt Chang saw her expression was a little strange, and then followed her into the room.
"Girl, what's going on?" He poured a cup of tea for Lin Zhu, placed it gently in front of her, and guessed, "Could it be that Her Highness the Princess is giving you a hard time?"
No wonder Aunt Chang thinks so. No matter from any aspect, Lin Zhu is not the best candidate for the wife of a powerful family. Princess Changmin is dissatisfied, which is normal in her opinion, although Aunt Chang does not think that Lin Zhu is better than those so-called
She is a good lady. But the eyes of the world will not change according to her preferences.
"It's okay, Aunt Chang. Don't worry. Her Royal Highness the Princess treats me very well." Lin Zhu shook her head and showed a reassuring smile. This is also true. After Princess Changmin recognized Lin Zhu, she did it for Mu Qiyue's sake.
He was extremely generous to her and gave her two large boxes of clothing and jewelry. If Lin Zhu hadn't given her some special pure tea that Princess Changmin liked, I really don't know how to return the gift.
Lin Zhu was just worried about Fu Dou'er. General Chang had gone out to visit friends and had not returned. Mu Qingqi knew about Fu Dou'er's life experience, so he couldn't tell Aunt Chang. He could only wait until the general returned home to discuss countermeasures.
.
In the days before a year ago, I don't know who was talking too much, and it was revealed that Lin Zhu and Mu Qiyue were invited into the princess's mansion by Princess Changmin. For a while, Lin Zhu was attracted by Princess Changmin and was ready to betrothed to Mu.
Rumors about Qi Yue are rampant.
When rumors about the two of them spread before, many people suffered a big loss afterwards. Now, in order to take revenge, the rumors were even more difficult to hear.
However, Lin Zhu never paid much attention to these rumors and lived her life as she should. Others' strange looks had no effect on her at all. Even if some sanctimonious people said weird things in a roundabout way, she would just treat them like mosquitoes.
Humph, ignore it.
And the beginning of the year was the busiest time for Muyue Trading Company. Mu Qiyue was busy with business and could not spare time to pay attention to the outside world.
Of course, the attitude of the General's Mansion followed Lin Zhu's. No matter who asked, the people in the General's Mansion would always stop at rumors and try to prevaricate the matter.
But Prince Qing's Mansion exploded.
"Nonsense. Does that traitor want to make me angry to death?" After hearing the rumors, Prince Qing angrily smashed his favorite tea set.
"My lord, please calm down." Concubine Qi, the biological mother of the third child Mu Qian, was accompanying Prince Qing. Seeing how angry he was, she quickly patted Prince Qing's bulging chest and persuaded him.
"We still have to listen to the fourth young master's explanation for this matter. Maybe it was just a coincidence that the two of them met at the princess's house. This may be someone who is jealous of the fourth young master and is taking the opportunity to cause trouble."
Yes, this advice is better than no advice at all. It is both a promise and a possibility. It is all speculation. Prince Qing was even more annoyed after hearing this.
"Hmph, there is no smoke without fire. If he had checked himself, how could he have caused such trouble and embarrassed the palace." Prince Qing said angrily, "And that girl named Lin Zhu, she is just from the countryside, thinking
Can you marry into the prince's palace just by marrying General Chang? It's simply fantastic."
Prince Qing was furious, and the concubine stopped talking. What should be mentioned has been mentioned, and that's enough.
"Your Majesty, that's what I said, but that girl is supported by the General's Palace. Our Prince's Palace will definitely not agree to her marriage, but we shouldn't bring it up rashly, lest she take advantage of it."
Although Princess Qing is opposed to her concubine Qi,
She was very angry when she gave Mu Qiyue eye drops in front of Prince Qing. However, they were on the same side in this matter, so she did not get angry in front of others. However, she should express her attitude in front of Prince Qing.
It also needs to be shown.
"For General Chang's sake, I won't argue with that girl this time. However, I still have to find an opportunity to give the girl a beating. After all, it's just a rumor. There's no need to go too far. It's better to keep General Chang alert."
After taking a sip of tea brought over by his concubine Qi, Prince Qing's mood calmed down and he told Princess Qing what to do.
"Princess, do you need to go and tell me?" Princess Qing was a little unsure about what Princess Changmin meant, and Mu Qiyue was the most obedient to her, so Princess Qing wanted to go to her to get some advice.
"Needless to say." Prince Qing waved his hand impatiently. Princess Changmin always faced him. Although they were brothers and sisters, they were not close. She valued her dissatisfied son very much. At first, because of Mu
Qi Yue suffered a lot in Prince Qing's Mansion, which made his face very dull.
"He is my king's son. He will do whatever the king tells him to do. No one else can be the master of Prince Qing's Mansion."
The meaning of the words was directed at Princess Changmin. However, the people in Prince Qing's Mansion here also thought the same as Prince Qing. They believed that it was because Princess Changmin was supporting Mu Qiyue behind his back, so he did not treat the people in the mansion at all now.
People can see that they can't take advantage of Mu Yue Trading Company at all, let alone Mu Qiyue's glory. Everyone in Prince Qing's Mansion has long been resentful.
"Didn't you propose marriage to the fourth child some time ago? There was no result?" Prince Qing thought of this matter again, "Princess has to work harder and find a suitable candidate. Don't let him cause more trouble outside."
In his tone, Mu Qiyue seemed to be such a big trouble that he always wanted to get rid of.
"Yes, I will take care of it." Everyone agreed. Princess Qing was not dissatisfied and nodded in agreement.
As sons, Mu Qichen, Mu Qicheng and Mu Qian did not express any opinions. However, in their hearts, they did not want Mu Qiyue to get involved with General Chang's Mansion. Now that Concubine Lan is pregnant, the General
The status of the government has risen to a higher level. Although Chang Tianlei is still young and can't do anything for the time being, how can General Chang's grandson continue to be ordinary?
Not to mention that the generals who once served under General Chang are now generals in charge of one side. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that Chang Tianlei has a bright future no matter how bad he is. What's more, Chang Tianlei has been working hard since he returned to the General's Mansion.
Not only did he practice martial arts, he worked even harder on his studies. The fact that he was both civil and military was not mentioned by the General's Office to add glory to him, but was secretly discovered by some people who paid attention to the developments in the General's Office, and then spread the word.
If Mu Qiyue marries the granddaughter of the General's Mansion, doesn't that mean he has strong backing? How could the three sons of the Mu family let such a good thing happen to Mu Qiyue.
Therefore, they very much agreed with the actions of Prince Qing and Princess Qing, and secretly decided to find some way to stop Mu Qiyue.
There are always endless banquets before and after New Year's Eve, so Princess Qing can choose a suitable wife for Mu Qiyue according to her own wishes. However, this time she learned her lesson and did not do it in a big way, and it was
Very low-key, in this way, her little
Not only was Mu Qiyue hidden from Mu Qiyue's actions, but even the young ladies who were attracted by her were also at a loss. It was not until Princess Qing asked someone to explain it that their parents understood that, without their knowledge,
, my daughter was actually looked at once.
However, at this time, the attitude of Prince Qing's Mansion in choosing a wife for Mu Qiyue has been seen by many people. Therefore, many people are not optimistic about getting married with Prince Qing's Mansion. After all, marrying Mu Qiyue is better than becoming someone else's concubine.
The gap is too big for someone who came to Prince Qing's palace to be favored.
Therefore, Princess Qing's series of actions to choose a wife for Mu Qiyue years ago were considered a failure.
Everyone in Prince Qing's Mansion thought they were doing it very covertly, but they didn't know that Mu Qiyue had already learned about their actions. However, there were too many things going on a year ago and they couldn't take care of them.
Moreover, he had already made an idea in his mind regarding his marriage to Lin Zhu. Whether the people in Prince Qing's palace agreed or not did not matter to him. Even if they prevented his marriage to Lin Zhu, Mu Qiyue could still request the emperor.
Giving marriage to fulfill one's wishes.
Based on the relationship between the emperor and himself, Mu Qiyue felt that it was quite easy to get a marriage decree from the emperor.
The most important thing is that he has no intention of entering the officialdom, and he can also bring a lot of income to the emperor's private treasury. For the sake of this, the emperor will make it convenient for him.
Because once Mu Qiyue enters the officialdom, it means that he is on the same side as Prince Qing. Whether he wants it or not, others will think so. Although Prince Qing is more restrained now, he always confronts the emperor secretly.
, if Mu Qiyue becomes an official, not only will he not be able to help the emperor, but he will also cause more trouble.
Moreover, after the emperor ascended the throne, the treasury was already very empty due to years of war. Although he tried his best to govern, there were always times when he failed to catch up. There were many things that he could not do with all his strength without money.
As soon as Mu Qiyue's business ability was discovered, he became a small rake for the emperor's small treasury. The fact that Muyue Trading Company was able to become one of the five major trading houses in the capital within three years was largely due to the emperor's secret support.
big relationship.
Therefore, even if it is to allow Mu Qiyue to continue to make money, the marriage request can be easily satisfied.
Although the marriage between Lin Zhu and Mu Qiyue is still very unclear at present. However, the two of them do not seem to be too pessimistic. Instead, they look relaxed and calm, which makes some good people really confused.
What they really think.
However, some people can't sit still.
Lin Qingxue's affection for Mu Qiyue grew day by day and never diminished at all. Even though she was warned by Mu Qiyue and grounded by Mr. Lin for slandering Lin Zhu, she did not give up the idea of marrying Mu Qiyue at all.
Therefore, when she heard about the meeting between Lin Zhu and Mu Qiyue at Princess Changmin's Mansion, she felt that it should be done without further delay, and felt a sense of urgency in her heart. She told Zhao what she thought, and she also hoped that Zhao could
