Your majesty, your queen has run away again

Chapter 26
Murong Lingche thought about what Xia Yuanting said at the gate of the palace all the way, and felt that what he said made sense.

As the battle between King Heng and the prince intensifies, more and more people will be dragged into the water in the future, and the ministers will stand in line one after another. It is very difficult for the Murong family to be alone.

Just as Xia Yuanting said, the best way to deal with it is to put an end to it once, so as to save it from being remembered in the future.

Not long after, the carriage arrived at the gate of Murong Mansion, and Murong Lingche already had some concerns in his heart.

"Go and invite Mu Teng over here," Murong Lingche went to the study after ordering the people following him.

Mu Teng is the chief steward of the Murong Mansion. He followed Murong Tian since he was a child, and was also a warrior who made the enemy fearful on the battlefield.After coming to Licheng, he willingly abandoned Jia and became the housekeeper of Murong Mansion. It has been dozens of years now, and the Murong family respects him very much.

Ever since Murong Lingche took over the Murong Mansion after Murong Tian passed away, Murong Lingche was grateful for Mu Teng's selfless dedication to the Murong family all his life, so he allocated a separate courtyard for him to live in, and would not bother him under normal circumstances. his.

The current second housekeeper, Mu Mu, is Mu Teng's only son. Unless it is something difficult, now Mu Mu handles all the big and small affairs in the mansion.

"Young Master, are you looking for me?" Although Mu Teng's hair is gray now, he is hale and hearty. He still walks vigorously with his feet, and he can still vaguely see the demeanor of that year, and his voice is like a bell when he speaks.

Mu Teng's address to Murong Lingche was still the same as when Murong Tian was around.

"Uncle Mu, sit down, I have something to trouble you, old man!" Murong Lingche felt that if Mu Teng came forward to deal with Zheng Guogong's matter, the effect would be better and more effective than Mu Mu.

"Eldest young master, you are welcome, please tell me! What trouble are you talking about? If you keep idle, this old slave's legs will get rusted..." Mu Teng immediately regained his energy when he heard that he had something to do. In fact, he was not idle usually. Several of the kung fu of my grandchildren were taught by him...

"It's like this..." Murong Lingche briefly talked about the recent affairs between Zheng Guogong and Murong's family, and then told him what to do next...

Mu Teng nodded as he listened, and when Murong Lingche finished speaking, he slapped his thigh: "Don't worry, Eldest Young Master, this matter is on the old slave's shoulders, and I promise that this low-class member of the Zheng family will never dare to hit our Murong Mansion again." idea!"

It's been a long time since Mu Teng came out of the mountain, and Mu Teng was so excited that he rubbed his hands and planned to have a big fight, which made Murong Lingche laugh and relax.

I miss the old days so much!

After leaving the study, Mu Teng called some people to go to the big warehouse, and after a while carried several boxes and walked out the door.

Several big red boxes with patterns painted on them were carried out from the Murong Mansion. Walking along the main road of Licheng, it is difficult not to attract attention. Besides, the old housekeepers of the Murong Mansion have all left the mountain today, but they have not seen them for a few days. He's gone, so the troublemakers and the spectators all followed behind to see what happened.

What's more difficult is that once Mu Teng changed from the cold and iron-blooded people's impression in the past, he was very happy along the way. He said a few words to people he didn't know, which made people very excited, and more and more people followed him.

"Old Zhang, where are you going? Good days are gone?"

The person who was accosted was the housekeeper of the House of Ministers of the Household Department. He came out today to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstones for the Shangshu. He did not expect to meet someone from the Murong House carrying a box with the seal of Zheng Guogong’s house and walking along the East Street.Out of curiosity, I took a few glances, but I didn't expect Mu Teng to talk to me on my own initiative.

Butler Zhang was a little flattered, and hurriedly bowed and said: "Oh, it's the wooden butler. I haven't seen you getting old for a long time. Where are you going? Isn't the second butler in charge of the house now?"

"Oh, there are a lot of things in the mansion, and the wood can't move around. I'm just an old bone. It's not because Zheng Guogong's mansion sent so many gifts a few days ago. At that time, our lord and wife were not at home, and the servants were too I didn’t dare to make my own decision, so I put it in the yard. Later, I found out that the people in Zheng Guogong’s mansion sent it by mistake, and now our master sent me to Guogong’s mansion to send it back!”

According to Murong Lingche's instructions, Mu Teng first said that everyone in the mansion was very busy and had no time to deal with the affairs of Zheng Guogong's mansion.He was the only old man with nothing to do, so he was assigned this job. The audience and listeners should understand the meaning of this.

Mu Teng also spoke loudly on purpose to ensure that everyone around could hear him.

"Master Wooden, didn't you say that Mrs. Zheng Guogong met Miss Murong Er very much in Pujia Temple, and Zheng Guogong's mansion gave these gifts because of the intention of getting married?" A good-hearted person asked loudly. It's no secret anymore.

"Where did you hear that there is nothing like this, the young ladies in our mansion don't leave the door, so there is no such thing as private contact with outsiders, even if there is, there are a bunch of maids and women who follow. "

Mu Teng first picked out the female relatives of Murong's family, and Murong Lingche did this to preserve Murong Yan's reputation, otherwise, how could he talk about kissing in the future.

"The third lady and the second lady did meet Mrs. Zheng at the Pujia Temple, but they just met each other. Somehow they were passed on by people with ulterior motives. Hey..."

This means that the people with ulterior motives are Zheng Guogong and his gang. Although ordinary people are forbidden to discuss government affairs at will, those matters of the royal family have always been discussed in private. Who in Licheng doesn't know about Heng Wang and the prince?
"So the Murong Mansion doesn't plan to marry Zheng Guogong's Mansion?" A male duck voice asked again.

"Of course it's gone. The little masters in the mansion are still young, and the masters and wives are not in a hurry," Mu Teng explained as he walked, walking back from time to time to take care of the crowd following behind.

Everyone suddenly realized that the Murong Mansion didn't have such an idea, just to put it bluntly, according to the Murong Mansion's past practice, Zheng Guogong's Mansion was not their cup of tea.

Seeing that the goal has been achieved, I believe that within half a day, everyone in Licheng will know that the Murong family has no intention of marrying the Zheng family at all, and those statements are all wishful thinking of the Zheng Guogong's mansion.Mu Teng didn't delay any longer, and urged his subordinates to turn directly to the road leading to Zheng Guogong's mansion.

Mu Teng put the seven gold-painted and red boxes at the gate of Zheng Guogong's mansion, said to the concierge, and led the people to leave...

At this time, Zheng Guogong was still in the palace discussing matters with King Heng, while Zheng Guogong's wife took her youngest daughter to talk to Zheng Guifei. Zheng Gongzi hadn't come back from Yicui Courtyard for several days.

It just so happened that the housekeeper at home was not there, and there was no one in charge in the entire mansion, so the seven boxes were conspicuously placed at the door of Zheng Guogong's mansion for more than half a day, and there were many pointing people around the door...

When Zheng Guogong came back, he saw the situation at the door and almost fainted out of breath. He kicked the porter a few times, and then someone hurriedly carried the box in.

I heard that there were bursts of howling like ghosts and wolves in Zheng Guogong's mansion that night...

　The old housekeeper slapped his face on stage, recommended tickets, la la la
