Chapter 52 Request
After such a fuss, the atmosphere in the hall immediately improved. The Empress Dowager Sun gave orders, and the nun took the order to leave. After a while, the palace door opened wide, and a group of maids came in, offering hot tea and candied fruit to several people. Only then did Empress Dowager Sun talk to Mu Xu and the others about family issues.

Thinking of what the emperor told her about Mu Xu's engagement, Empress Chen couldn't help asking, "Xu'er, your uncle said you are engaged?"

Mu Xu heard that she referred to Emperor Jiading as uncle, so he naturally replied with family etiquette, "Yes, Auntie, I just got engaged a few days ago."

Hearing his confirmation, Tu Rui and Brother Tu Rui showed curiosity on their faces, and even the Empress Dowager Sun couldn't help asking, "And this matter, why haven't I heard Shuang'er mention it before, this girl." She reproached and asked again, " Which girl is it?"

Mu Xu truthfully said it was a girl from the Lin family. Seeing that Empress Dowager Sun couldn't remember it for a while, Empress Chen explained, "The girl's natal family is Rongguo Mansion."

Empress Dowager Sun suddenly said, "I'll know when you say that. I remember that when Duke Dai Shan was still there, his wife, Shi Shi, would often bring a girl from her family into the palace to greet me. What's that girl's name?" Waiting for someone to remind her, she patted her forehead, "Yes, I remembered, her name is Jia Min. I remember that girl and Shuang'er have always had a good time, and she is also pretty and lovely. I think she will give birth to a good girl, too. How is that girl Jia Min doing now?"

After listening to her question, Mu Xu replied, "Aunt Jia passed away in Yangzhou City a few years ago."

Empress Dowager Sun couldn't help sighing after hearing this, "It's a pity for this girl, where is her daughter now?" Mu Xu also replied honestly, "She was taken to the capital by her grandmother two years ago, and now she lives in Rongguo Mansion."

Empress Dowager Sun, like Mu Xu's grandmother, showed displeasure when she heard about Rongguo Mansion, "Why is it in Rongguo Mansion? I heard from a few wives who entered the palace that the rules of Rongguo Mansion are not very good now, and most of the descendants are unworthy. "Speaking of this, he sighed again, "Thinking about the majesty and prestige of Duke Dai Shan when he was alive, even the Supreme Emperor had to give him a little face."

Hearing what Queen Mother Sun said, Mu Xu's heart moved, and he begged immediately, "Grandmother, I beg you for one thing."

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Sun smiled and said, "Tell me, as long as grandma can do it, I will do it for you."

Mu Xu was a little embarrassed, "Grandmother also said that the rules of the Jia family are not very good, so I want my grandmother to give the girl of the Lin family two foster nuns..."

Before he finished speaking, Empress Dowager Sun smiled and said to Empress Chen, "It can be seen that we are really engaged, and we all know that we love my daughter-in-law, haha..." Empress Chen also laughed, "Isn't it, I didn't expect Xu'er to be a Lover, let’s do this, I’ll also have fun, and then I’ll give the girl some things together with the queen mother, so that she can gain power.” He rolled his eyes and continued, “The next time I order my wife to meet, I’ll invite you Madam Rongguo is here, let her take that girl from the Lin family into the palace for the Queen Mother and me to have a look at." Queen Mother Sun nodded repeatedly.

Mu Xu was overjoyed when he heard what the Queen Mother and Empress had said, and thanked the two without a word, which made them laugh again and made Mu Xu feel quite embarrassed.Turning around, he saw Tu Rui and Tu Zhen were also laughing at him, winking at him, Mu Xu immediately threatened them, and they turned their heads away with a sneer.

Empress Dowager Sun looked at a few children playing around below, she smiled kindly, and suddenly remembered something, and asked Empress Chen, "I just mentioned Rongguo Mansion, why do I seem to remember that the female history in your palace belongs to Dai Shangong?" granddaughter."

Empress Chen put away the smile on her face, "There is such a thing, she is the girl from the second room of the Rongguo Mansion." Seeing that her complexion was wrong, Empress Dowager Sun wondered, "What's wrong with her?"

Empress Chen chuckled, "There's nothing wrong with it, but Concubine Zhen has always asked me to take care of her. After all, the two families were old friends when they were in Jinling."

"Is there such a thing?" Queen Mother Sun asked, and said disdainfully, "The family does not want to make progress, but expects women to climb the dragon and the phoenix. It is a pity that the honor of the first Duke of the Kingdom was honored."

I didn't bother to talk about it now, and seeing Tu Rui and Tu Zhen still making troubles at Mu Xu, I couldn't help laughing and said, "You two still have the face to laugh at Xu'er, you two are about the same age, it's time to talk about marriage Especially you, Rui'er, why hasn't your mother and concubine made an appointment for you, and you can take it easy when you get married. When she enters the palace later, I want to talk about her, how is she a mother?"

When Tu Rui heard this, he talked about his marriage again, and immediately waved his hands, "Grandmother, please forgive me, I want to play for a few more years."

Hearing his begging for mercy, Empress Dowager Sun laughed and scolded, "Stop doing this, and I will definitely ask your mother and concubine to find you a powerful daughter-in-law to cure your problems."

Knowing that there was no room for him to speak out about this matter, Tu Rui stopped arguing and slumped on the chair, making an expression of lovelessness.Empress Dowager Sun didn't bother with him, and turned around to talk about Tu Zhen's marriage with Empress Chen. Mu Xu looked amused at the sidelines. She didn't expect the dignified Empress Dowager to be with the empress, just like middle-aged and elderly women in later generations. Gossip about the marriages of these children.

Just now Tu Rui and the others were watching his jokes, now Mu Xu is also smiling and watching their excitement. He came from a later life, but he knows the power of these middle-aged and elderly women too well.Sure enough, after a while, Empress Dowager Sun and Empress Chen had already talked about whether it would be better for Tu Zhen to marry a main concubine first, or to match the main concubine and side concubine for him at once.This pause made Tu Zhen's expression dull, and he sat there dumbly without saying a word.

Before we knew it, it was noon, and Empress Dowager Sun naturally stayed with a few people for lunch.After lunch, they talked again, seeing the tired look on the Empress Dowager, Empress Chen hurriedly ordered Gong'e to wait on the Empress Dowager before going to rest.Empress Dowager Sun didn't refuse either, she just told Mu Xu before she left, "Your mother is not in Beijing now, if you have any difficulties, just come to grandma, and come and talk to me if you have nothing to do."

Mu Xu was moved, "Yes, I remembered, I will come to accompany my grandmother when I have free time, as long as my grandmother doesn't find me annoying."

Empress Dowager Sun shook her head with a smile, "You child, you are just talking nonsense." Remembering Mu Xu's begging for her just now, she ordered the mother next to her, "Liu mother, go to Rongguo Mansion tomorrow for me. That Miss Lin picked two nuns, and gave some rare things from the palace."

Grandma Liu nodded in agreement, Empress Chen also smiled and said, "Mammy Liu will come to Zhongcui Palace when I go, and I also have something to bring to that Miss Lin." She smiled narrowly at Mu Xu, "But Can't let our Xu'er's future little wife be wronged?" As soon as these words came out, several people laughed.

After the Empress Dowager went to rest in the apse, Empress Chen led the three of them out of the Palace of Compassion and Peace.After getting off the platform, Mu Xu and Tu Rui asked Empress Chen to resign.Empress Chen ordered the two of them to say a few words, and Fang took the reluctant Tuzhen to Zhongcui Palace. From the looks of it, today's business is not over, and Tuzhen might have to be taught a lesson when he goes back.

The two coincidentally gave Tu Zhen a helpless expression, and went out of the palace together.

Out of the gate of the imperial city, after meeting with the servants of the two mansions, the two got on their horses and walked side by side. Tu Rui remembered what happened in Longshou Palace today, and said bitterly, "This matter can't just be left alone, we have to find a way to rectify it. This is Zhen Shihong."

In fact, Mu Xu already planned to write a letter to Liu Xianglian who is now in Jinling after going back, asking him to collect the evidence of the Zhen family's crimes, so that when the emperor wants to take over his family in the future, he will express his anger well.Based on their family's misdeeds in Jinling, cleaning up their family can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.At this time, after hearing what Tu Rui said, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any good ideas, let's hear them."

Tu Rui rolled his eyes, "How can I think of it so quickly, I can't sum it up when I look back, I have to know what hobbies this kid has first, so that I can do it easily."

Hearing what he said, Mu Xu's eyes suddenly lit up, "If you say that, I have someone to choose, and I must know Zhen Shihong's preferences." Seeing Tu Rui's curious face, he didn't pretend to be close, "I'm talking about this person You know him too, it's Xue Pan."

"Xue Pan, do I know this person?"

Seeing that Tu Rui had forgotten, Mu Xu reminded, "The last time was in Chunxiang Building."

Only then did Tu Rui realize, "You mean that idiot? Why, does he know Zhen Shihong?"

Mu Xu told Tu Rui about the origin of the Xue family, and finally affirmed, "Then Xue Pan was also known as a gangster when he was in Jinling, and the two of them might still be friends."

Tu Rui nodded, thinking about what happened last time, he couldn't help but doubt, "Will this kid help us? After all, I dealt with him last time."

It's okay for Mu Xu to talk, and told him about Xue Pan's job in Xiuyiwei.

Only then did Tu Rui feel relieved, "Okay, I'll ask Xue Pan out tomorrow and ask him about it. For your sake, forget about what happened last time."

Mu Xu was startled, "Tomorrow? Are you in such a hurry?"

"Of course, this kind of thing should be done as soon as possible. If this kid knows that he has offended us, he only stays in Beijing for a few days. It would be a pity to let him run away." He said with a smirk on his face, "I will make an appointment with you at noon tomorrow. Don't forget that Xue Pan is going to Chunxiang Tower."

Mu Xu was speechless at his bad taste, and said angrily, "Understood, at noon tomorrow, I won't forget it."

I really want to write a big miserable word.Although the results are not good, thank you friends for your support.My coding speed is average, and I don’t really want to break away from the original work. Recently, because of the epidemic, I have spent a lot of time reading the original work and 87 TV series all night. As a result, I have lost my mind now.
