The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 138

Mu Qingling found the right time, and praised: "The princess's temperament is inherited from the empress. After the princess gets married in the future, she will be as smart and stable as the empress. The empress does not need to worry."

Her words coaxed the Queen and Princess Changle to laugh from ear to ear.

It happened that the palace people served a dish of venison, and Mu Qingling served the empress and Princess Changle courteously.

After finishing all the maid's chores, Mu Qingling put down her chopsticks and sat upright, not intending to bring food for herself at all.

Princess Changle looked at Mu Qingling, took a bite of the food, and asked suspiciously: "Qingping, aren't you hungry?"

Mu Qingling replied: "I'm not hungry, what else would your Highness want to eat?"

Princess Changle shook her head, and asked again: "Why are you covered with a veil? Here are all your own people, why don't you take it off?"

Mu Qingling's smile faltered, but fortunately no one could see her gloomy expression hidden under the veil.

If she hadn't had to, she wouldn't have worn such a hindrance.

"Your Highness, I have many red rashes on my face, and I put on the veil because I was afraid of scaring the nobleman." Mu Qingling forced a smile.

"I'll ask the imperial physician to show you, they are skilled in medicine, and they will definitely be able to heal your face."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Mu Qingling replied.

During this period of time, she did not know how many doctors and miraculous doctors she had seen, but none of them could heal her face.

But she doesn't want to talk too much in front of outsiders, lest others bring the topic to her face.

"Queen, I want to go and have a look." Chang Le said excitedly.

Ahead is the place where the Holy Majesty held a banquet. Chang Le wanted to see if the third prince of the Western Regions, who was famous all over the world just after entering the capital, had a pair of green agate eyes as rumored.

The queen smiled and asked, "Why do you want to go over suddenly? You are so abrupt, be careful that your father is angry."

Chang Le smiled innocently: "Father said, tell me to go there."

The queen's complexion instantly became gloomy, and her former graceful and luxurious demeanor was gone.

After being married for many years, how could she not know the mind of the Holy One?
As long as her children are involved, it is difficult for her to maintain good self-cultivation.

"What are you going there for?" The queen pulled Princess Changle to her side, "Come and have dinner with me, there will be songs and dances from the Western Regions later."

Princess Changle forcibly pulled her hand out, "No, Father said he wanted to show me something nice."

The queen was helpless, "Then ask Qingping to accompany you. She works steadily and can watch you from the sidelines."

Mu Qingling, who was named, immediately said: "Please rest assured, Madam, I will definitely take good care of Your Highness."

Chang Le grinned and said many good things again, coaxing the Queen into laughing, before turning around to leave.

Her gaze inadvertently landed on the seats in Duke Ding's Mansion, and she said: "My queen, please ask the Second and Fourth Misses of Duke Ding's Mansion to accompany me."

The bluntness of her words attracted both the queen and Mu Qingling to look over.

Before Chang Le could take back the hatred, the queen and Mu Qingling saw it.

Changle knew from the mouth of the palace people that because of Dingguo's mansion, the virtuous king and the god of war Li Zhao were tied together.

Because of this, the situation is very unfavorable to the prince.

The prince has loved Chang Le, the only direct sister, since he was a child. Seeing the prince suffered such a dumb loss, how could Chang Le just ignore it.

The queen smiled knowingly, and said dotingly: "It's up to you."

She understood Changle's temperament, but she just wanted to do some harmless pranks.

"Thank you Queen Mother!" Changle looked at Mu Qingling, "Qingping, let's go."

"Yes."

Mu Qingling followed Princess Changle to get up. Some court ladies had already gone to the seat of Duke Dingguo's mansion to invite Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingxue.

While waiting to show his favor, Chang Le whispered to Mu Qingling: "It would be great if your two younger sisters are as sensible as you."

The corners of Mu Qingling's lips curled up involuntarily.

It is not in vain that she has been busy in the empress's palace for a long time, and even the most lowly maids do things, she has worked tirelessly.

Finally, the queen's suspicion of her was eliminated.

Mu Qingling sighed faintly, "My two younger sisters are not like me who have lost their parents long ago. The two of them have been spoiled by the elders in the family. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"Hmph," Chang Le was very disdainful, "Then I will take care of your elders and teach your two younger sisters a good lesson."

"Then thank you, Your Highness." Mu Qingling lowered his voice, and there was a bit of satisfaction in his eyes.

As long as Princess Changle is willing to step out, Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingxue who can take care of them will be obedient.

After the two of them finished talking, the palace lady happened to bring Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingxue over.

The two of Mu Qingyu saluted Princess Changle, and Changle arrogantly told them to get up, and then walked ahead.

Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingxue kept a distance from the first two, but Princess Changle turned her head from time to time and looked at them with malicious eyes.

That look showed no kindness.

Mu Qingyu glanced over Mu Qingling who was next to the princess, and she knew it in her heart.

A few people headed towards the palace where the Holy Majesty held a banquet, and Princess Changle could go in justifiably, but Mu Qingling and the other three were female relatives, so it was not in accordance with etiquette to go in and out of places where there were only male guests.

Princess Changle asked the three of them to wait in the side room next to the palace. She was going to find a way to deal with Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingxue after she met the Holy Majesty.

The three of Mu Qingyu sat around the table, but none of them spoke first. The atmosphere in the room was awkward and uncomfortable.

Mu Qingyu simply lowered his head and played with his fingers.

Her nails have just been dyed with bright red Kodan, and they look really pretty with her white and tender fingers.

While the three of them were sitting, the voice of a man talking could be heard from outside the house from time to time.

Mu Qingling gave some instructions to the maid beside her, and the maid went out.

After a while, the maid came back and whispered something in Mu Qingling's ear.

Mu Qingling suddenly realized, her gaze flicked over the unaware Mu Qingyu, and a plan arose in her mind.

"Fourth sister, I have something to ask you, come with me." Mu Qingling said coldly.

Mu Qingxue was taken aback, she really came here for whatever she was afraid of.

She gritted her teeth and refused: "It's the same if you say anything here, the second sister is not an outsider."

Mu Qingling's eyes became colder and colder, "Oh? Then I'll tell you straight, about you and your aunt..."

Before she finished speaking, Mu Qingxue stood up immediately: "I'll go out with you right now."

"It's good to be this early." Mu Qingling walked ahead with a gloomy face.

Mu Qingxue followed out helplessly, this feeling of being manipulated made her very distressed.

But in a few days, she and her mother don't have to be afraid of anything.

Mu Qingyu looked at the expressions of Mu Qingling and Mu Qingxue, what were these two planning?
As soon as the two left, they took away all the maids in the house.

Sitting alone, Mu Qingyu always felt uncomfortable.

She stood up and went to the window to get some air, when she heard the man's voice again.

She held her breath and concentrated, not wanting the man who was speaking to see her.

It's just that the voice was familiar, so Mu Qingyu followed the voice and looked over.
