The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

King Jin made a gesture of invitation and let Mu Qingyu go first.

But Mu Qingyu still kept his sense of proportion, how could he dare to pass King Jin and walk in front of him?
"Please, my lord first." Mu Qingyu replied politely.

King Jin smiled and stepped forward first, followed by Mu Qingyu.

"I don't know how Princess Jin is doing? Last time in the General's Mansion, my negligence caused Princess to suffer so much. I feel really sorry." Mu Qingyu was full of self-blame and guilt.

"Her body has always been like this. What happened last time has nothing to do with Madam. Madam doesn't need to blame herself." King Jin's eyes darkened.

After returning, he had already found out the truth.Knowing the truth, he sent a lot of people away, and the people serving around Princess Jin and Chai Siyun all changed.

He hated the feeling that things were out of control, and even more disgusted that the two dared to have their own thoughts.

All he wants is a well-behaved and obedient puppet.

Mu Qingyu hummed, and followed behind King Jin silently.

Her eyes touched Jin Wang's tall back. Although Jin Wang said he was middle-aged, but just looking at his back, he would only think that he was still a youth in full bloom and high spirits.

She was puzzled, why is King Jin going out of the palace at this hour?Especially when something happened to Xiaosheng, King Jin, as the regent and uncle of Xiaosheng, how could he not be by his side?

Mu Qingyu's lips moved, but they were still tightly closed, and followed King Jin out of the palace without saying a word.

King Jin turned his head and glanced at Mu Qingyu, then he deliberately slowed down and walked side by side with Mu Qingyu intentionally or unintentionally.

When Mu Qingyu realized it, she was already walking with King Jin. She was just about to slow down when she heard King Jin's voice from above her head.

"The last time the king asked his wife to inquire about it, how did the lady inquire about it?" King Jin asked in a low voice.

Mu Qingyu froze for a moment, then remembered that he went to Dingguo's mansion in a restless state, and cried in front of Mrs. Mu, just to ask Mu Qingling, who was far away in the Western Regions, to find out about Li Zhao's whereabouts.

There was a little water in Mu Qingyu's eyes, and the center of her eyebrows was also pulled up. She bit her lip to keep the tears from falling, "I didn't find out the general's whereabouts."

King Jin's gaze on Mu Qingyu's face was deep, as if he was examining it.His eagle-like sharp eyes turned around on Mu Qingyu's face before retracting.

"Well, the longer he has been missing, I'm afraid...Madam, why don't you go back and beg Mrs. Mu, the king will send more people to look for him." King Jin said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, my lord. As long as my lord can bring the general back, I will be very grateful." Mu Qingyu restrained her excitement, and only hoped that King Jin would find Li Zhao back.

"He is also a good friend of this king, Madam, there is no need to be so polite."

At the gate of the palace, the two separated.

Mu Qingyu waited for King Jin to leave before continuing on. After getting into the carriage of the General's Mansion, Mo Zhu hurriedly handed over the handkerchief and poured a glass of water from the warm teapot in the carriage.

Mu Qingyu wiped away her tears and drank another bowl of warm water, her mood has calmed down.

Mo Zhu had been following Mu Qingyu just now, and heard the conversation between Mu Qingyu and King Jin.

Mo Zhu suggested: "Madam, when shall we go back to the Duke's mansion?"

"It's time to go back," Mu Qingyu said thoughtfully, "it just so happens that the eldest princess has rewarded a lot of good things, I should take them back to honor my grandmother and third aunt. Right now, let the coachman go to the Duke's mansion."

"Yes."

Mo Zhu stretched out his head and said a few words to the coachman, the coachman quickly agreed, brandishing his whip and driving the carriage to the Duke's Mansion.

The people in the carriage did not notice that there was a group of people following behind.

The leading man was riding a horse with a personable manner, and he was the King Jin who had just left.

King Jin rode a horse and followed the carriage of the General's Mansion not too far or too close.

It wasn't until seeing the carriage stopped at the gate of Duke Ding's Mansion, and the people in the carriage got off and entered the Duke's Mansion, that King Jin smiled and rode away.

The Fang family did not expect that Mu Qingyu would come to the Duke's mansion today after clearly entering the palace.

Perhaps because she felt ashamed of Mu Qingyu, Fang dropped what she was doing and rushed to Mrs. Mu's place immediately.

She guessed that the first thing Mu Qingyu did when he came back was to greet Mrs. Mu.

When Fang rushed to Mrs. Mu's place, she saw Mu Qingyu, but she didn't expect Tong Qiurui to be here too.

She remembered that Tong Qiurui said she was sick and stayed away from home all the time. She didn't even attend Mu Qingqiu's wedding, so she didn't expect to meet her here.

But Tong Qiurui's family background is not obvious, whether she attends Mu Qingqiu's wedding or not, it doesn't matter to the Fang family.

Tong Qiurui did not expect so many people to come at this time, she was a little flustered, she just sat sideways, facing everyone with one side of her face.

But it was her behavior that attracted people who didn't know where to look.

Sensing Tong Qiurui's embarrassment, Mrs. Mu waved her hand, "We're all a family, what's there to be shameful about? Turn around."

Only then did Tong Qiurui turn around shyly, the black cyan on her forehead that hadn't faded was particularly eye-catching.

Both Mu Qingyu and Fang Shi were startled, and the first thought in their minds was that the bruise must have been caused by Mu Erye, otherwise why would Tong Qiurui cover it up and refuse to show it to others?

Tong Qiurui saw the eyes of people around her looking at her with surprise, pity, and watching the excitement, she almost gritted her silver teeth.

She came here to Mrs. Mu just to win her sympathy.

If she knew that Mu Qingyu and Fang Shi would come, she would definitely not come.

Mu Qingyu also realized why the last time he went to see Tong Qiurui, there was a gauze curtain between them.

"You're such an adult, why aren't you careful? You smashed your head like this?" Fang asked knowingly.

Tong Qiurui looked at Mrs. Mu's gloomy face, and said after consideration: "I will be careful in the future, and I will never throw myself down clumsily again."

Fang looked at her with a half-smile, and then looked at Mu Qingyu.

"How come Yu'er is free?" Fang asked with a smile.

Mu Qingyu asked Mo Zhu to take out the things that Changle rewarded, and said: "Today, the Changle princess invited me into the palace and rewarded me with so many precious jewelry, so I thought to honor my grandmother first. and Third Aunt."

Fang Shi laughed, and even Mrs. Mu's face added a smile.

"It's hard for you to remember us." Fang took Mu Qingyu's hand, "Among so many ladies, Yu'er is the most caring."

Mrs. Mu also liked Mu Qingyu more and more, "It's good for Qiu'er, none of the ladies in our Duke's Mansion is bad."

Of course, Mu Qingxue has already been expelled from the Duke's Mansion by Mrs. Mu.

Seeing them talking lively, Tong Qiurui was ignored.

With such a bruise on her face, she felt uncomfortable all over.

She stood up and wanted to leave.
