The reborn businesswoman is the queen

Chapter 68 Xu Xuan Sows Discord
Xiao's heart suddenly felt bitter, and he forced a smile.She didn't want to agree, but the master begged her...

Before Mrs. Xiao could speak, Mu Yunge jumped ahead of her and said, "Father, the Mu family has always governed the family according to the rules. This is the end of the matter. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face for you to change your mouth? It turned out that Miss Xuan didn't understand the rules. Now You can only be in the same room, but it's nothing. When Miss Xuan gives birth to a little brother, it's the same if the mother decides to raise her to be a concubine. Just make up for it in other places, Miss Xuan pays for food and clothing according to the etiquette of my aunt, what do you think?"

After hearing this, Xu Xuan raised her head nervously.

Although the laws of the Great Wei strictly stipulated the ranks of scholars, farmers, businessmen, and commerce, there were quite clear regulations on maintaining the status of the head of the big family.

It is said that Emperor Wu entrusted him to be raised by a minister when he was young. The minister's first wife was bullied by concubines, which made Emperor Wu deeply hate concubines in his heart.Later, after Emperor Wu came to the throne, the first thing he did was to kill the concubines in the minister's mansion. He himself had only one wife, three concubines and two concubines, which was the king with the fewest concubines since the founding of the Wei Dynasty.Not only that, Emperor Wu made a decree, stipulating that from the king to the common people in the Wei Dynasty, only one wife, two rooms (that is, side wife and flat wife) and four concubines are allowed in the backyard. If there are ten, they will face the review of the inspector.

If the status of a concubine wants to be changed, the only way to advance is through meritorious service. For example, giving birth to an heir for a husband is a promotion channel.

There is only one chance to be promoted in the concubine's room, even if Xu Xuan gave birth to a male, at most she will be promoted to concubine.It's not like being an aunt when you enter the mansion. After giving birth to a child, you can still be raised as a concubine or a flat wife. If the main wife dies, you may be able to recover and become a real "Mrs. Mu"!
Xu Xuan wanted to cry, but if Mu Zhizhao nodded, she would be hopeless in this life!

Xu Xuan looked at Mu Zhizhao eagerly with tears in her eyes, and called out emotionally: "Master, I don't..."

Before she finished speaking, Aunt Qiao, who had been standing behind Mrs. Xiao, suddenly opened her mouth, choking her words: "Master, Miss is right! There is only one brother in our house now." The man is so lonely. If Miss Xuan gave birth to another little brother for the master, it would not be a happy event, but the brother also has many playmates? At that time, Miss Xuan will be a great contributor to the Mu family. Rewards for meritorious deeds, don’t good things come in pairs?”

Aunt Qiao had saved Mrs. Mu's life before. She was brought into Mu's house at the discretion of Mrs. Mu when she was still alive.She is low-key and introverted on weekdays, and her family is also a businessman. Although it is a small business, she has also developed a good ability to read people's eyes, and she is quite popular in Mu's family.

Today, I heard that the new concubine's house, the mistress said that she wanted to have dinner together in the dining room, she thought she could see Mu Zhizhao, so she specially dressed up and came here.

Aunt Qiao's waist was thin and soft, and today she specially wore a light yellow skirt with a narrow waist, with moon beads on her ears, and a Dongling jade bracelet on her hair.

Mu Zhizhao couldn't help but think of Aunt Qiao who saved her mother, and she only became an aunt when she entered the house. No matter how big the child in Xu Xuan's belly was, could it be greater than Aunt Qiao's kindness in saving her mother's life?

He nodded immediately: "Yujiao is right, let's do this first."

What's more, with his beautiful wife and concubines and the whole family watching, he really can't change his mouth, otherwise everyone will treat it as a show, and the Mu family will not be in a mess in the future?
Looking at Xu Xuan who was crying when he heard the words, Mu Zhizhao sighed, that's all, the days are still long, let's take it easy.

After dinner, Mu Yunge returned to the room, but unexpectedly did not see Wei Shi.

Before going to the dining room, she left a note on the table and asked the hidden guard to find Wei Shilai.

She frowned, Wei Shi never broke his promise to her, could something have happened?Speaking of which, during the day at the temple today, Wei Shi had a hesitant expression on his face...

There was a thick envelope quietly on the table. Mu Yunge took it, but didn't look at it. He just opened the window and whispered to the outside, "Why didn't he come?"

A figure flashed from the dark to under her roof, and said in a low voice, "Master has already returned to the capital with the fourth prince and Miss Zhao this afternoon. The master also asked the villain to tell the lady that this return to Beijing may not be until after the beginning of spring." Only then can I come to see the young lady, let the young lady miss you a lot. Also, the master said that the young lady can write to him when she is free, and if you encounter something that cannot be resolved, you must find a way to inform him, and don't risk yourself."

It turns out that Wei Shi has already returned to Beijing...

Mu Yunge closed his eyes, looked out the window, his eyes drifted unconsciously.

When he understood what Wei Shi had said, he couldn't help but blush secretly, really, how can you want others to miss you when you say goodbye?
She burst into a smile, and the slight loss of parting also dissipated unknowingly.

After the dark guard left, she opened the envelope and read it carefully.

Wei Shi must have known that her sudden return in the afternoon was due to Xu Xuan's affairs. It was about Xu Xuan's identity and the process of how she met Mu Zhizhao.

Wei Shi said in the letter that Xu Xuan was the daughter of a florist in Liao County, and she met three months ago when Mu Zhizhao went to Liao County to do business.She was brought out by her father to entertain her, and when Mu Zhizhao got drunk, he took the opportunity to climb into Mu Zhizhao's bed.The two spent nearly half a month of sweet time in Liao County, and then Mu Zhi called back to Jinling and brought her back, but just after returning to Jinling, Mu Zhizhao went out due to other business and placed her in another place in Jinling. A separate courtyard.

This time, after receiving Xiao's letter and coming back to deal with Mu Yunge's affairs, I realized that Xu Xuan was three months pregnant, and took her to pray for blessings, but Mu Yunge bumped into her when she didn't want to.

Mu Yunge read it all at a glance, and the more he looked at it, the more gloomy his face became. When he finished reading the letter, he couldn't bear it and slapped the letter on the table again.

Xu Xuan is really too much!

She was extremely displeasing to the eye, but she dared to plot against the Mu family, so don't blame her, Mu Yunge, for being cruel!
There was a cold light in her eyes, and a chilling intent made the guard not far away also shudder.

In the Linchun Building, Xu Xuan had no idea that she had been included in the elimination list by Mu Yunge. She snuggled into Mu Zhizhao's arms, crying so pitifully: "Master, you want Xuan'er How will you live in the future? Xuan'er did not hesitate to abandon her parents and followed you from Liao County to Jinling. You are the only one who can rely on you in this life. But now even a girl dares to bully Xuan'er. I don't know how many people are waiting to see behind it What about Xuan'er's joke..."

She was crying sadly, seeing that Mu Zhizhao really felt distressed, he repeatedly patted her on the back, kissed her hair to comfort her: "Xuan'er stopped crying, she hurt her body, her stomach hurts and feels uncomfortable."

As expected, Mu Zhizhao's soft comforting voice made Xu Xuan gradually stop crying, and Mama Chen signaled her with her eyes that it was time to say something.

Xu Xuan sat up straight, with tears still hanging from her eyelashes, and asked Mu Zhizhao mischievously and suspiciously: "Master, before Xuan'er came to Jinling, you told Xuan'er that you were only Xuan'er, but today Xuan'er just When I entered the mansion, I saw two concubines and one maid. I heard that another maid was ill and did not come. Calculated in this way, without the wife, the master already has four concubines. Xuan'er sees sister You are all beautiful, and you have just entered the mansion not long ago, right?"

"Nonsense, Aunt Qiao, who entered the mansion the last time, has been here for almost three years!" Her shy and timid appearance really touched people, Mo Zhizhao was in a good mood by her slightly sour smell, and couldn't help but squeeze her small nose.

Xu Xuan pretended to be surprised: "Three years? No way?"

Mu Zhizhao raised his eyebrows: "What's so strange about this?"

Xu Xuan was even more puzzled: "The master now only has two children, the young lady and the young master, and the other sisters are young and beautiful, why have they not given him a child after three years with the master, and Xuan'er has only half a month with the master. Could it be Madam..."

Her voice gradually lowered, as if she was intimidated by Mu Zhizhao's face, she didn't dare to speak anymore.

Mu Zhizhao pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, just tapped his fingers on the table lightly, with a terrifying seriousness.

The goal was achieved, of course Xu Xuan accepted it as soon as it was good, and snuggled into Mu Zhizhao's arms softly, gently touching her belly with her hands, with a hint of complacency on the corners of her crooked mouth: "What's wrong with Madam, how dare she let Xu Xuan If things don't go her way, she won't want to!Just wait, within an hour, the master will definitely accuse her angrily, and see who will suffer more!

Xu Xuan didn't see it, but a figure left from the corner of the wall and went to Mu Yunge's Tingfengzhu.

After a while, the conversation between the two in the room fell into Mu Yunge's ears verbatim.

Her face was cold, and she asked the little girl who came to report the letter to go back and watch.

She adjusted her breathing slightly, then looked at Pei Xin who also looked angry, and said with a smile: "Come on, let's go to Mother's room. Mother was frightened and angry today, she must not be able to sleep, let's go and accompany her say something."

In Xiao's yard, there were also dark waves.

When the door was closed, Yushan said indignantly: "Ma'am, Miss Xuan is really too much. You don't even know whether you are a man or a woman, so you dare to show your face to Madam."

Xiao rubbed her brows wearily: "Forget it, let her make troubles, am I not intact? The more she makes trouble, the more displeased the master is, so nothing can happen."

"But today she almost rode on Madam's head, this servant is really angry!" Thinking of what happened today, Yu Shan still felt worthless for Madam.

Xiao Shi sighed and didn't say anything. No matter how wronged she was, what could she do, Mu Zhizhao still brought newcomers home one by one?
Seeing that she was silent, Yushan didn't dare to talk about making her sad anymore, and changed the subject with a smile: "But speaking of it, Miss today made the servants look at her with admiration. In a word, Miss, depending on how much trouble she has in Linchun Building, it is just a joke. Auntie."

In the past, the lady was smart, but she never cared about these trivial matters. She locked herself in her boudoir to make some poems and songs, and often left the wife to struggle alone.But since the young lady fell off the horse and woke up, she began to speak for the wife. With the young lady, everything is different!

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl came to report that the eldest lady had come.
