Chapter 1717 Suspicion of Prevarication and Procrastination
"Hey, I said, if the magpies are chirping early in the morning, something good must happen. As expected, my sister has entered the palace, and the princess, mother and son are safe, it's all a happy event!"
Princess Huaichang came over happily, smiled and saluted Gu Fenglin and Mu Yunhan: "Congratulations to you two."
Gu Fenglin smiled lightly and nodded: "Thank you, Your Highness."
Mu Yunhan smiled and returned the courtesy: "Thank you, Your Highness."
The two of them actually saluted and spoke in sync.
Princess Huaichang was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two of them meaningfully with a smile: "This is called a perfect tacit understanding. I'm really happy for you."
Mu Yunhan was a little embarrassed, but he was really happy, so he just smiled and said nothing.
Princess Huaichang did not tease her, but reminded her in a low voice: "Grandma Huang has been waiting for you since she got up early, and she didn't even eat much for breakfast."
This means being worried, restless, and waiting for something to happen to them.
Mu Yunhan got the hint, quietly squeezed Princess Huaichang's hand, and followed Gu Fenglin to the Queen Mother.
After greetings, the Queen Mother gave her a seat, but she didn't mention anything about the wedding. She only asked Mu Yunhan, "Did it go well with your marriage announcement this morning?"
Mu Yunhan smiled and said, "It went smoothly."
The Queen Mother said calmly: "That mother-in-law of yours is not an economical lamp. Earlier, the Queen had called Ah Lin into the palace and reprimanded her several times because of her upbringing.
I think her nature is easy to change, and no matter how good she is on the surface, she won't be much better on the inside. If she makes things difficult for you, just tell me."
Mu Yunhan smiled and agreed, feeling that the Queen Mother's intimacy today was a bit too much.
The Queen Mother asked Gu Fenglin again: "Have you ever paid homage to your biological mother?"
Mu Yunhan looked at Gu Fenglin worriedly.
She had thought about this problem as early as when she was at Guhou Mansion.
When a bride gets married for the first time, according to the secular rules, of course she only pays homage to her main wife and not to any concubines.
But the Gu family is very special. The second wife who gives birth to an heir can be called the wife together with the main wife, and in some respects, her status is even higher than that of the main wife.
Even if Mrs. Jing is dead, it is human nature to kowtow before her soul and burn a stick of incense.
But no one in the Guhou Mansion ever mentioned this matter, not even Gu Fenglin himself.
She did not dare to touch this taboo easily, lest she make Gu Fenglin unhappy.
Now that the Queen Mother mentioned this, she couldn't avoid it.
Gu Fenglin's expression was calm, neither sad nor happy: "I haven't spoken to the Queen Mother yet."
Mu Yunhan was afraid that the Queen Mother would ask further questions, so he added: "Time is a bit tight and there is no time."
"Are you rushing to the palace to express your gratitude?" Princess Huaichang was very considerate.
The Queen Mother looked at Princess Huaichang and said, "You are such a skinny kid. You are always saying good things to your sister Mu anytime and anywhere. Didn't you say that you have something to give her? Why are you not in a hurry now?"
Princess Huaichang smiled and went to pull Mu Yunhan, and playfully said to Gu Fenglin: "Master Priest, please lend it to your wife and return it soon."
Mu Yunhan followed Princess Huaichang away. The Queen Mother looked at Gu Fenglin seriously and said, "Now that you are married, is there any clue about what you mentioned to me before?"
Gu Fenglin said: "I plan to meditate tonight. I think after this treatment and recuperation, I can see many details clearly through meditation again."
The Queen Mother was a little dissatisfied: "A few months have passed and you said you needed wedding treatment and recuperation, and I have tried my best to create conditions for you.
It's been several days since we got married, but you haven't been able to get the results for a long time. I think you seem to be delaying!"
