The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 401

Mu Qingyu walked into the Hall of Great Harmony. Her appearance immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. She never expected that she would come back safe and sound after being taken out by Feng Rong.

When the imperial concubine heard the movement, she opened her eyes suddenly, and shouted at Mu Qingyu, "Come here, I have something to say to you."

Mu Qingyu paused, and walked towards the imperial concubine.

When she came to the front, she didn't salute, she stood straight in front of the imperial concubine, and said with a smile: "What is your order?"

"Why did you come back alone? Where's Rong'er?" The imperial concubine asked nervously, worrying.She already had a bad premonition in her heart.

"My lady, why don't you guess what will happen to those who have done all the bad things." Mu Qingyu narrowed his eyes, and said with a half-smile.

The imperial concubine overturned all the dishes on the table with her hands, and amidst a crackling sound, she roared: "You are lying! There is no way something will happen to Rong'er! The entire palace has long been under our control!"

Mu Qingyu took a few steps back, the soup from the uninvited dishes spilled on her dress.She has only worn new clothes a few times, and it won't be beautiful if they are ruined.

"Your Majesty insists on being so confident, and my servant has nothing to say. My servant will leave." Mu Qingyu turned around and was about to leave.

The imperial concubine pointed at Mu Qingyu, she was so angry that she couldn't speak, she even gave up her reservedness and preciousness in the past, and now she is a distraught woman.

Mu Qingxue ran over again, stopped Mu Qingyu first, and asked, "What happened outside?"

Mu Qingyu raised his eyebrows, "Why, didn't the Xian Wang and the imperial concubine tell you about their plan?"

Mu Qingxue was secretly annoyed, this was her sore spot.The virtuous king and imperial concubine thought she was shallow, so they didn't reveal a single word to her.

"You don't have to worry about this," Mu Qingxue said impatiently, "Just tell me, what happened outside?"

"You might as well go outside and have a look by yourself, it will be clearer." Mu Qingyu bypassed Mu Qingxue and left.

Seeing it with your own eyes is indeed the best way, but recalling the commotion outside, Mu Qingxue didn't have the guts to go out at all.

She directed Sui'er to go out to find out.

Sui'er was in a dilemma, "Sister Chunhong is safe, why don't you ask Sister Chunhong to go."

"Forget it, Chunhong, you go." Mu Qingxue didn't give Chunhong a chance to refuse, and gave Sui'er a wink, Sui'er pushed Chunhong vigorously a few times, and Chunhong had no choice but to go outside the hall .

After a while, Chunhong ran in scrambling.

"Princess, it's not good. People outside said that His Royal Highness King Xian has been arrested! Early tomorrow morning, the Seventh Prince will be enthroned!" Chunhong came in shouting.

When the imperial concubine heard the news, she didn't bring it up in one breath, and she fainted.Her maids hurried forward and supported her together.

Mu Qingxue's legs went limp and she almost fainted. She fell on Sui'er and asked with a trembling voice, "Did you find out clearly?"

Chunhong replied: "Slaves dare not lie!"

The expressions of the people in the hall were different. The Feng family all stepped forward and surrounded the imperial concubine and Mu Qingxue. What you said and what I said was to ask the two to think about it.

During the commotion, Mu Qingyu had already sat back in his seat steadily.

The few people in Dingguo's mansion were in the mood of surviving after a catastrophe, they looked at each other, speechless with excitement.

Mrs. Mu patted Mu Qingyu's hand with her aged hands, and said in relief, "It's good to be back."

Mu Qingyu pursed her lips and smiled, "Grandmother is worried."

After waiting for a while, several palace people came in from outside the hall, saying that they were asking all the ladies and ladies in the hall to go home.

The imperial concubine was pinched for a while, and finally woke up.Hearing the palace man's words, she hurriedly said in a hoarse voice: "You are not allowed to leave...No one is allowed to leave without the order of the palace...Come here, close the door of the hall, and no one is allowed to leave!"

The guards guarding around the main hall had been quietly replaced by King Jin's people at some point.

They didn't move at all against the imperial concubine's order.

The imperial concubine yelled for a long time, but seeing those guards who were like stones could not yell at all, she had the bottom line in her heart, and felt like a knife was twisting her heart.

Seeing this, except for those who have some relationship with the imperial concubine, they fled out one after another.

Those families who are related to the imperial concubine are afraid that the virtuous king is not dead, and if there is a comeback, they may have to settle accounts after autumn.

They had no choice but to hesitate to bid farewell to the imperial concubine.

Although Dingguo's mansion is related to the imperial concubine by marriage, Mrs. Mu took the lead, and the group left the hall directly.

Walking outside the hall, the cold air in the middle of the night is also extremely sweet.

Everyone who walked outside the hall was relieved of their burdens and went home with ease.

Mu Qingyu had only taken a few steps when she heard someone calling her from behind.

"Miss, miss, wait for servant girl!" Sui'er quietly ran over while no one was paying attention.

According to the current situation, following Mu Qingxue is tantamount to death.

Mo Zhu hastily reminded: "Miss, don't trust her. The maidservant really saw it. When Miss Cai was away, she was trying her best to please Princess Xian. Why did you worry about Miss?"

Mu Qingyu nodded. In fact, Mo Zhu didn't need to remind her, she also knew Sui'er's personality.

In the past, Sui Er also did things for herself, so she turned a blind eye to Sui Er's actions.

But if King Xian's scheme succeeds today, Sui'er must be a capable general beside Mu Qingxue.

Mu Qingyu said to the guards guarding the entrance of the main hall: "That's Princess Xian's personal maid, don't tell her to run away."

After all, she took Mo Zhu and left without looking back.

Seeing that Mu Qingyu didn't wait for her, Sui'er's heart tightened, she ran even faster, and shouted: "Miss, wait for the servant!"

When she was about to run out of the hall, the guards guarding the gate stopped her.

"What are you stopping me for? I'm the second lady's personal servant girl in Duke Ding's mansion!"

The guard thought it was Sui'er lying, and said viciously: "Go in quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for arresting you! Put you in the prison!"

Sui'er was so frightened that she took a few steps back, so she had no choice but to keep going inside.

King Jin specially sent someone to escort all the female relatives out of the palace.

Mu Qingyu secretly looked around at the situation, presumably King Xian's people were arrested by King Jin and Li Zhao.

They left the palace smoothly all the way.

After getting into the carriage, Mu Qingyu didn't forget to look outside again on the way home, only to see that the street was quiet and there was no one in sight, just like the peaceful nights of the past.

Back at Duke Dingguo's mansion, Mrs. Mu hurriedly told everyone to disperse and go back to sleep well. If there is anything to do, it will not be too late to talk about it in the morning.

The palace was still brightly lit, and King Jin was leading the ministers and palace people nervously preparing for the enthronement ceremony of the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince hadn't recovered from the fright, he was like a puppet in a daze, letting King Jin manipulate him.
