Chapter 45
In the Hou Mansion, everyone knelt in front of the father-in-law who was holding the imperial decree.

When the father-in-law saw that everyone was coming, he conveyed the emperor's oral order to everyone.

The emperor has passed his thirties, but he has a younger brother who is [-] years younger than him. In order to find a partner for his younger brother, girls who are ten years old and above the fifth-rank officials are selected as the selection targets.So on the eighth day of the next month, the queen will hold a banquet in the palace, and select these famous ladies as a consideration.

Upon hearing the news, Da Furen and An Muxue both had joyful smiles on their faces, and looking at the eyebrows of Third Concubine and Fourth Concubine, they were also planning something, it seemed that the little prince had already taken a fancy to their daughter Same.

And An Mujin's heart was disturbed by this incident. The legendary little prince has been well protected by the emperor, and he has never heard any rumors about him. Now, how old should he be?Looking for a partner, even a ten-year-old girl would not let go, what a crime!
Yes, it is a crime!

This was all An Mujin's thoughts when he heard his father-in-law finished speaking the emperor's oral order.

The second aunt saw that An Mujin had no expression at all, so she pushed her and asked, "Jin'er, what are you thinking?"

"I was thinking, there are quite a lot of girls in the Hou Mansion, so why don't I have to go?" An Mujin smirked, Second Aunt hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Jin'er doesn't want to go, so let's not go."

An Mujin really laughed this time, she laughed so happily, it was still Auntie who loved her the most.As long as she doesn't want to, my aunt will not force her.

Although it's not my aunt who has the final say on the Hou's mansion, An Mujin thinks that the eldest lady definitely doesn't want her to go either.If she accidentally fell in love with the little prince, wouldn't An Muxue and the others die of anger?
An Yunyao waited for her father-in-law to leave before she ran over and saw that the whole family was here, and asked the old lady, "Mother, did that father-in-law come to say that Xue'er was sealed?"

"Add seal, add seal, I think you are crazy. Is there no one else in such a big palace except your Xue'er?" The old lady said angrily, and walked away holding Yuanyang's hand.

Seeing that the old lady ignored her, An Yunyao looked at Lord Hou begging for help again, and Lord Hou also sighed, and said in a cold voice, "Hurry up, don't waste the time."

An Yunyao bit her lip angrily, and looked at the eldest lady with resentment.All of this was done badly by the eldest lady, it's really good to borrow a knife to kill someone.

"Brother, I'm also the daughter of the Hou's mansion anyway, so you just treat it as if I came back to visit my mother? Besides, the Hou's mansion is so big, can't we even support the few of us? If the eldest brother really wants to care If so, then I will give it, just give the money..."

"I told you, it's not about money!" Master Hou's face was extremely ugly, and he gave An Yunyao a few glances. An Yunyao's mouth was flattened, and she began to cry. She really didn't want to leave the capital like this.

Seeing An Yunyao crying, Lord Hou also had a headache.At this time, the eldest lady said considerately: "Master Hou, my sister only comes back once in ten years, let her stay here for a while longer."

An Yunyao glared at the eldest lady, and wanted to say that you don't need to worry about it, but in the end she held back.Although she looks down on the eldest lady, who is a small family, if it weren't for the constant engagement, would the eldest wife marry the Hou Ye, but she also understands that the Hou Mansion is the master now, and she has to rely on him and please him.

"Sister-in-law, please help me to talk to my elder brother. Seeing that the weather is about to heat up, Suzhou City is the hottest time, and I want to spend the summer in the capital before going back. Besides, I have been there for many years. I didn't spend the summer at home anymore, I thought about it too." An Yunyao put away the dissatisfaction in her heart, and flattered the eldest lady.

"It's fine to live here, and you're not allowed to take another step out of Qinxiang Garden if you have nothing to do in the future." Master Hou made the final concession, and An Yunyao quickly nodded in agreement.

Just let her live here, let her do anything.

The next thing was that the eldest lady hurriedly arranged for An Muxue to enter the palace, waiting for the empress to take a fancy to it.

The father-in-law said that when they reach the age of ten, An Muyu, An Muqin, and An Mujin, all three of them are over ten years old, so they will also be An Muxue's competitors.

But seeing that An Muxue was taller and better-looking than them, the eldest lady sneered in her heart that they were the three concubines, and they definitely wouldn't catch the queen's eyes.Besides, the queen has met An Muxue before, and she also likes her very much. This time, An Muxue will definitely marry the young prince successfully.

When the eldest lady called the three concubines, An Mujin, An Muqin, and An Muyu into the room, she made it clear that anyone who could marry the young prince would add face to the Hou family, so If you need anything, you can talk to the mother in charge.No matter how good it is, as long as it can dress up beautifully, the mother in charge will agree.

Hearing the good news, An Muqin jumped up excitedly, politely blessed the eldest lady and said, "Thank you mother, mother, we will definitely not let you down."

The eldest lady held the teacup and covered the smile at the corner of her mouth, thinking that An Muqin, you have let me down once, and I don't mind if you do it again.

Putting down the tea cup, the eldest lady smiled again, and said very kindly: "Okay, you all go back and prepare. The eighth day is only four or five days away, so you must prepare well, don't lose The face of the Hou Mansion."

After some kind words to appease, An Mujin and the others turned around and walked to Da Furen's Shuxiang Garden.

On the way, An Muyu finally plucked up the courage to say to An Mujin, "Sister Jin'er, why didn't you say a word from the beginning to the end?"

"Sister Yu'er, have you forgotten, she is just dumb." An Muqin said triumphantly, looked at An Mujin and said, "But, don't you already know how to speak? Why did your mother ask you just now? You don't talk either?"

An Mujin opened his mouth, revealing a flush inside, and Ning Yan beside him explained: "Miss's throat is inexplicably inflamed again, and I can't speak for the past two days. The doctor checked and said that the miss may be You may never be able to speak again."

"Ah! Haha..." An Muqin smiled triumphantly. How could a dumb person be taken by the queen, let alone go to see the little prince.

"Sister Jin'er, why is your voice..." An Muyu couldn't believe it, but thinking of how honorable it is to be married to the young prince, An Mujin probably wouldn't pretend to be sick at this time.

An Mujin pointed at her throat, and Ning Yan continued to explain: "Oh, it can only be said that our lady's life is in danger. Miss heard that she could marry the little prince, and she was so excited that she didn't sleep for two nights. I got up in the middle of the night to practice my voice, trying to make my voice sound better. Who knows, if I act too hastily, it will become like this instead.”

"Ah? Haha..." An Muqin smiled smugly again, the little mute was quite upbeat, knowing that her voice was ugly, she wanted to make it better so that the little prince would like her.It's a pity, God really didn't want to help her, and her voice was ruined by myself.

It's best if God doesn't help her a little bit, so that she won't speak again in the future, it's best to be a veritable little mute.

In fact, An Muyu was secretly happy when she heard Ningyan's words.As long as An Mujin doesn't go, doesn't that mean her chances are greater.But she won't be so obvious like An Muqin, she still comforted An Mujin a little.He said that as long as the queen took a fancy to her appearance, it was fine, not necessarily her voice.

An Mujin nodded with a sad face, and then shed two lines of tears.

After seeing off the two younger sisters, An Mujin took out what was in his mouth, it was a piece of raw meat with blood on it.

After rinsing his mouth several times, An Mujin still felt the strong smell of meat in his mouth. I really don't know how the ancients felt when they ate raw meat.

He successfully deceived An Muqin and An Muqin, and as expected, as An Mujin expected, in the afternoon, everyone in the Marquis Mansion knew that An Mujin practiced his voice in the middle of the night in order to win the queen's favor. His body was swollen and he couldn't speak.

Master Hou knew the news, and brought the doctor to see An Mujin. An Mujin was lying on the bed, with his head on his hands, and his mouth was open, spitting out blood one mouthful at a time.

Seeing An Mujin like this, the doctor hurriedly saw An Mujin, checked for a long time, and when he received a silver bar from Ningyan, he said to Lord Hou in fear: "If you go back to Lord Hou, the second lady's voice is just right. And because of over-practice, it swelled so badly that I couldn't speak for a while."

"Then, what about after that?" Master Hou asked nervously.

The doctor hesitated for a moment, and said: "If you rest well in the future and stop talking, maybe you can still speak."

"What kind of talk is this? Don't talk anymore, maybe you can talk in the future, so is she going to say it or not?" Hou Ye was a little angry.

"Master Hou, forgive me, little one, little one..." The doctor was terrified and didn't know what to say. Seeing him like this, Lord Hou didn't make things difficult for him, and waved his hand to let him go.

The doctor had just left, and the lady brought the doctor to visit An Mujin.

Seen by the lady's doctor, the doctor said that An Mujin's throat might not get better, it was too swollen.Not to mention talking, eating will be a problem in the future.

Hearing what the doctor said, An Mujin nodded quickly, and Ningyan said in pain from the side: "Miss, drinking water now makes my throat hurt."

Hearing this, Lord Hou became even more anxious.The eldest lady mentioned from the side, it's not good for An Mujin to enter the palace like this.

Hou Ye said angrily: "I'm already sick like this, and I still think about what to do in the palace. Little errands, you take my post and ask Royal Doctor Wang to see the second lady."

The little runner immediately answered yes, took a look at An Mujin, and immediately ran out of Jinxiu Garden.

An Mujin was lying on the bed, and heard Lord Hou say that he would invite the imperial doctor to see her.Oops, this is a big mess.

But thinking that as long as Lord Hou doesn't let her enter the palace, she will be satisfied!
