Chapter 259 The inquirer comes to the door
"Yes, Lord Tong and General Mu are good friends. It is normal for him to take you to General Mu Da. This time you have seen General Mu Da. Do you think he is good?"

Xiang Zhilan didn't think much about it, she just thought it was a good thing that Xiao Naituanzi realized her wish.

But she had heard that General Mu Da closed the door to thank guests, and ordinary people really couldn't get in.

"Just like that, you can't move while lying on the bed. It's not fun." Ning Wenwen followed Tong Yu's instructions.

"General Mu Da was seriously injured this time. I think he needs to rest for a while."

Ning Wenwenxin said that he was injured. She saw that he was walking very smoothly, and he didn't look injured.

I just want to pretend to be sick and take a vacation.

Xiang Zhilan didn't ask too much about this matter, but unfortunately, when she planned to take the little breast dumplings to visit other places the next day, a lady who didn't move around very often came to the house. Of course she knew her.

The visitor was a guest, so she had no choice but to entertain him with a smile.

This lady is the wife of her father's subordinate. She has met her several times. Now she is Ning Muchang's immediate boss. Ning Muchang is a person who has received the emperor's favor, and for the sake of her father, that lady will not It will be difficult for Ning Mu Cang.

"We can't catch up with my sister when she gets married. The adults in our family were promoted by General Xiang. Our adults have always said that General Xiang is like his father. When my sister gets married, we should add more makeup."

The woman pushed an exquisite brocade box over and opened it. It was a set of exquisitely crafted jade jewelry that was worth a lot of money.

Xiang Zhilan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Zhai is out of touch when she says this. My father doesn't have personal relationships. Brother Zhai's achievements today are all due to his own ability."

"Oh, sister, you are really good at talking. What kind of ability does he have? He is just a single-minded person who doesn't know how to turn around. He only knows how to be loyal." The woman said with a smile.

Ning Wenwen stood aside and saw that the woman was not telling the truth. She had a mole on the corner of her mouth and she loved to lie. However, this was in the capital, and she did not dare to use the truth charm randomly, as she might lose her head.

Afraid.

Xiang Zhilan just smiled in agreement. Zhai Qing is the most versatile person and knows how to please people, but he also has some abilities, but he can't climb to his current position just relying on his abilities.

"Sister, please accept it," Mrs. Zhai said.

Xiang Zhilan shook his head, "I accept your sister-in-law's wishes. If my father knows about such an expensive gift, I'm afraid I will be punished. If my sister-in-law loves me, please don't let me accept it again."

"This..." Mrs. Zhai looked embarrassed, "This is for my sister. My sister is getting married, how can she not add some makeup?"

Xiang Zhilan shook his head, "I accept your wishes."

The woman noticed that the little breasted dumpling was looking at her, "Is this...I remember there are only two young masters in the house?"

Xiang Zhilan nodded, "This is a question about Mu Cang's niece. I saw how cute she was and couldn't bear to be separated from her, so I begged her to be brought to the capital to accompany me."

"Oh, this little girl is so lucky. Where can I find such a good aunt? I will have endless blessings with your aunt in the future." The woman is very good at talking and complimenting her every word.

Xiang Zhilan thought that two kinds of people could not sleep in the same bed, and there was some truth in this sentence.

"How about... how about this? This is the first time I've seen such a lovely girl, so I'll give it to her and keep it for future wear?" The woman stared at Ning Wen and asked.

Ning Wenwen shook his head, "Thank you, madam, but I can't ask for it."

"Hey, you are really good at talking. What a good boy. Don't tell me that you like it, sister. I also like it." The woman smiled, but there was no enthusiasm in her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, I accept your request for Wenwen." Xiang Zhilan refused again.

"How did you do this? How can I, the gift-giver, bring it back?" The woman was embarrassed, but she felt so happy because she was reluctant to wear such an expensive item to save money.

Don't pull it down, just in time for her to take it back and wear it.

Although Xiang Zhilan couldn't hear her thoughts, he could make a rough guess, but she didn't expose it.The woman's eyes glanced around, "Isn't my brother-in-law at home?"

"They are soldiers. Even if they are not fighting, they still have to practice every day. How can they be at home at this time?"

Xiang Zhilan's own father and brother are both soldiers, so she can accept it in her heart.

"Who says otherwise? A soldier is not as good as a civilian official and can easily lose his life, but no matter what, it is for the good of the people. Let's talk about General Mu Da. He was injured and now he doesn't even go to court. ”

Xiang Zhilan raised the corners of her lips and smiled.

Seeing that she didn't answer, the woman added, "It's been a few days since I came back, and I don't know how she is? Is she okay?"

"It's not good, but it's serious. I'm lying there and can't get off the ground." Ning Wenwen thought to herself. Regardless of whether she was really giving a gift or just asking for information, she just followed Uncle Tong's instructions.

"Have you seen this child?" the woman asked eagerly.

Xiang Zhilan understood that it was indeed a lie to give gifts, but it was true to inquire about the information.

But what is there to find out about General Mu's injury?

She was puzzled.

"Yes, she has been."

The woman did not ask Xiao Naituanzi who he went with or why, because she knew that he went with Mr. Tong Yutong.

Children can't lie, not to mention how old this child is.

What he said must be true.

"Oh, I can't go to the ground yet. How serious this is."

Xiang Zhilan sighed, "Didn't you say that you almost couldn't save your leg? The injury must have been serious."

"Sigh... there's nothing we can do about it. If we marry such a man, we have to worry about it." Mrs. Zhai said.

Now that she knew what she wanted to ask, she sat for a while and then left. Of course, after another round of pushing, she took the brocade box back.

After traveling far away, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips.

Xiang Zhilan was here, resting her chin on her hands, thinking deeply. She didn't have a clear idea, but she knew that Zhai Qing might have another owner, and she would tell her father and Mu Cang not to get too close to this person later.

The Xiang family does not participate in the struggle for imperial power, so it is better not to be plotted against.

Although she didn't want to marry Mu Yexing, and of course he might not be willing to marry her, she still admired this man from the bottom of her heart.

If someone is standing against him, then that person is definitely not a good person.

Xiang Zhilan made a plan in her mind, so she got up and went out with her little breast dumplings. She didn't meet any annoying people today, so she felt much better.

That night, she told Ning Muchang about Zhai Qing's wife coming to inquire for information, along with her thoughts.

"I listen to you, but even if you don't tell me, I don't like Zhai Qing very much. I think that person is glib and can't be found when it's time to do business." Ning Muchang said.

Xiang Zhilan was very pleased that the man listened.
