Chapter 174 Chapter 195
Lou Shaoqing was still in the frontier, too busy to get away, but at home, there was already a gloomy cloud.

Since then, the Beijing Prince's Mansion no longer sees guests, the princess fell ill due to depression, and Mu Jinxuan personally handles the funeral. Zhang Jian sent a list of various items, and Mu Jinxuan checked them one by one.

White flags were hung inside and outside the palace, white curtains adorned the once emerald green courtyard, and the red lanterns were all replaced with white. The entire palace has changed to a pale skin, which looks a bit gloomy.

The coffin was parked for three days, and many people came to express their condolences. Yu Wenzheng came in person, presented various burials and even rewards, read out the imperial decree in public, and made Lou Junquan the protector of the country, a model for the whole country.

Now Lou Shaoqing is still negotiating with the tribesmen on the Gobi Grassland. Mu Jinxuan did all the gifts and writing lists by herself. She lost a lot of weight in a few days. The princess occasionally came out to receive a few familiar guests. , arranged for Mu Jinxuan to receive them one by one.

Yu Wenzheng looked at the back of the busy person not far away, thought for a while, and left alone without saying a word.

When Mu Jinxuan remembered it, she came back and took a look, the room was empty, except for the emerald finger wrench on the table.

Mu Jinxuan frowned, and someone called her from behind: "Your Majesty, another adult is here!"

She had no choice but to withdraw her finger, and turned to entertain.

Fortunately, both Lou Junqing and Lou Yuqing are back, and with the help of two more people, it will be easier.

"You can't go in, you can't go in!" There was a commotion in the backyard, causing the guests to look back, only to see that the servants stopped a few faces-faced women and refused to let them in.

The commotion quickly reached Mu Jinxuan's ears, and she frowned, then greeted her.

Xiaocui is wearing red jade and wearing mourning clothes, she looks like she is here to attend the funeral, but what are your identities?You don't even count as a girl, so you come to express your condolences?
She looked back, and the guests all stretched their necks to look this way, and some couldn't help whispering, with a hint of theater in their tone.

"Yo, what's the matter?" Lou Junqing also saw something was wrong, and hurried over, he was still wearing filial piety clothes, and his face was a bit tired.

Mu Jinxuan glanced back and saw that her eldest brother was also quite tired, so she said, "Brother, it's fine, Xuan'er can handle it."

Lou Junqing looked at it, nodded slightly, then turned and left.

He can't intervene, if he intervenes, how can the younger brothers and sisters clean up these dirty things?
Lou Junqing narrowed his eyes, and the anger that was trapped in his stomach because of the loss was a little smoother.

Seeing Lou Junqing leaving, Xiaocui puffed up her chest instead, and looked up into Mu Jinxuan's dark eyes.

She thought that since Lou Junqing didn't care, then she would be fine, but it's a pity that she didn't know the people of the Beijing Palace.

People who are worthy of all-powerful figures are naturally not ordinary people.

"Zhang Jian!" The little girl had calm eyes, no expression on her face, and even her tone of voice without waves, making it hard to understand what this person was thinking.

The butler greeted her with a smiling face: "Your Majesty!"

"Toffee's words, do you still remember!"

Zhang Jian smiled and saluted respectfully: "Go back to your mother, Zhang Jian will never forget it in his life."

Mu Jinxuan nodded, pointed at Xiao Cui's slightly smiling face, "Drag these two troublemakers to the backyard and beat them!"

Zhang Jian replied yes, but Xiao Cui, who was stopped by several servants, was in a hurry. While pushing the stick in front of her, she pulled her neck and shouted: "Why? We are also here to express condolences! Why don't you let us Go in and beat us! You are simply deceiving people!"

Mu Jinxuan smiled, her face was soft, like a hibiscus out of water, not inferior.

"Then do you have invitations? Didn't you report the invitations? The people who came to investigate the king of Beijing are all civil and military and famous people in the world. What is your identity? Or, you are a woman of Shaoqing, there are two points The title? It’s just a gift from the emperor!”

A few words made Xiaocui's face flushed, this woman was so aggressive today, even though her eyebrows were lowered and her eyes were flat, she didn't dare to refute them, what's wrong? !

"Even ordinary people, can't they come to express their condolences?"

"Of course the common people can, but the common people are outside the door, and the common people also have the identity of the common people. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, what level and what kind are you?"

Xiao Cui's face suddenly became stiff, and then slowly turned livid after pale.

Status and status, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and the like are nothing, even low-ranking people who are not on the stage, farmers have more status than them!
Seeing that Xiaocui's face was pale and she couldn't say a word back, Mu Jinxuan said again: "No name, no title, no invitation, but here you are clamoring for condolences. Isn't it unreasonable? Zhang Jian, drag it out!"

Zhang Jian didn't hesitate any longer, just waved his hand, and someone came up and dragged the two screaming women to the backyard, and then there was no more sound.

Mu Jinxuan walked up to the guests with a smile on her face, and leaned over: "I let everyone see a joke, it's just a rude person who came to make trouble, everyone don't mind."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left, the concubine was not there, she was the most powerful person in Northern Xinjiang, these people need not be taken seriously.

Everyone looked at each other, and couldn't help feeling a little in awe of this woman.

"I thought His Royal Highness was the only one who was strong and shrewd, but the concubine I married is even more powerful!"

Mu Jinxuan turned a deaf ear to the words, and just continued to manage all these things.

Three days later, on the day of the burial, Lou Shaoqing rushed all the way back from the next door, got off the horse and knelt in front of Lou Junquan's coffin, and finally caught up with the final burial.

Yu Wenli's eyes were swollen like two peaches, Mu Jinxuan was supporting her, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn't help but turn red when they saw Lou Shaoqing's appearance, Lou Junqing and Lou Yuqing had no choice but to step forward to support her .

The funeral of the palace is naturally extremely extravagant, and there are not a few people who come to participate. Behind the queue is a long queue of civilians, most of them are elderly people, because only they know that before Lou Junquan came to Northern Xinjiang, they What kind of life did you live.

In the backyard of Prince Jing's Mansion, Xiaocui and Hongyu were lying on the bed, their pretty faces crying.

"I'm just going to have a funeral, so I won't let it go, and you still ask me what my status is. Part-time jobs are deceiving people too much!" Xiaocui scolded all the way, while several people gave medicine to the two of them, Zhu Mei's expression was calm. Did not speak.

Even though they couldn't go to the funeral, they were still dressed in mourning clothes. Except for the cleaners left behind in the palace, basically everyone went to the funeral. Zhu Mei looked up at the window. Embellished with a few touches of new green, it is very beautiful.

Zhu Mei smiled, and said, "I heard that Prince Wang is coming back today, and soon we will have identities."

The women cheered, Xiao Cui gritted her teeth while taking a breath, and said, "Today's beating must not be in vain!"

Lou Shaoqing was dressed in heavy filial piety, with a handsome face facing the courtiers from Northern Xinjiang who also wore sackcloth and filial piety.

All the veterans looked sad. Most of these people fought with Lou Junquan in the north and south. Even civil servants galloped across the vast territory of northern Xinjiang on horseback. Now that the old prince sacrificed his life for the country and died on the battlefield, they were heartbroken , but also somewhat honorable.

Lou Shaoqing turned his head to look at the screen behind him, his wife was looking at him worriedly behind the heavy curtain.

There were tears in the little girl's big black eyes, and her fair face was a little stiff. In this situation, she didn't seem very nervous, but more, she was worried about herself.

"My father sacrificed his life for the country. He is a hero of my previous dynasty. He is favored by the emperor. Burying the imperial mausoleum is a matter of glory. You must remember the emperor's kindness and do your duty to guard the northern border with this king. "

Since the old man died, the son inherited the family business, even the third son, but he was the son since he was a child, and his skills are excellent. This time, the war even put down the rebellion on the Gobi in three months. .

Originally there was a change of old and new, even a vassal king would have some etiquette and rules, but Lou Shaoqing had already spent a lot of time in the frontier, and everything in the palace was full, so naturally the steps were omitted, Lou Shaoqing As soon as they came back, everyone directly called him "Prince".

Mu Jinxuan waited until Lou Shaoqing's complexion gradually returned to normal, and then left. After leaving the back door, she saw the concubine standing at the door with a pale face. The little girl was startled, and hurried forward to help her.

Yu Wenli took the man's hand, retreated to the pavilion on the side, and said, "Xuan'er, I heard about the funeral, you did a good job."

Yu Wenli wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said: "Those are not things that can be put on the table, naturally we can't let them lose the face of our palace."

Mu Jinxuan nodded, that day was too urgent, there were many things to do, and these women came out to make trouble.

"It's just that I want to tell you that you will be the princess of Northern Xinjiang in the future, and you have to take care of it, and it's not just a place as big as the palace."

"Toffee?"

Seeing the little girl blinking her big eyes suspiciously, Yu Wenli smiled and pinched her tender little face: "Silly boy, shouldn't the lady just look down and help with housework when her husband goes to work in the fields? Ask about government affairs, but you still need to be clear about the trivial matters at home. Beijiang is the Beijing Palace, you have to do your best to help, but I still feel at ease with you. There are so many people in the Mu family, and you take care of them in an orderly manner. People are full of scheming, and you can stand firm, I trust you."

The little girl couldn't help blinking her eyes, which means that the concubine is going to ignore everything?
"Your father has gone, and I am not in the mood anymore. I will go to Beijing in a few days to guard your father's spirit..." Yu Wenli's eyes turned red again as he spoke: "All these burdens, I will take care of you." It's all for you!"
