The concubine will not accompany you: General, Madam ran away again

Chapter 239 New Year's Eve
That night, everyone in Biluoju was drunk except for the bodyguards sent by Chu Yuchen and the personal bodyguards that Luo Huang's portrait couldn't pass.

The most direct consequence was that when Mu Shuyao woke up, it was already high in the sun, and she stayed in bed for a long time in a daze, only then did she remember that today seemed to be the first day of the new year.

It seems that several companies have agreed to go to New Year's greetings, Mu Shuyao patted her head annoyed, why did she forget such a big thing?
After getting dressed and going out, they first went to the Minghui Hall, and without any surprise, they saw that the Mu family members were all there, and their faces were all beaming. It seemed that they were not at all sad for Mu Yuqing's early death, especially Mu Jiaqing. She actually sat beside Mu Yanran and talked with a smile on her face. She couldn't see the sadness from last night at all from her appearance.

"Hey, our princess is here, hurry up, then hurry up and salute the princess." Mrs. Wang said sharply, pinching her throat.

Mu Yongnian turned a blind eye to Mu Shuyao's salute, and even the old lady didn't give her a good face.

"Since the people in Mu's residence don't like me, I'd better go out." Mu Shuyao would never use her hot face to touch someone's cold ass, let alone she really has something to do.

"Come back to me." Mu Yongnian shouted: "Look at what you look like now, running outside all day, how can there be a girl like you."

Mu Shuyao looked at Mu Yongnian with a half-smile and said, "Father still has something to do? Today I promised the old concubine of the Anyang Palace to visit her. Why, this is considered running around? Also, there were assassins in the palace last night, of course I I have to go into the palace to say hello, besides, father, don’t you act like you don’t want to see me? So I went out and everyone is comfortable.”

"Speaking of what happened last night, why didn't you come out to preside over the overall situation when General Chu searched the Mu Mansion." Mu Yongnian was angry when he said this. Let Chu Shouxin, that reckless man, contradict him a few words.

After hearing this, Mu Shuyao couldn't help sneering, "Father is wrong, there is an old lady in the family, madam, and even the eldest daughter, who can take charge of the overall situation. When will it be my turn to be a concubine?" .”

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang snorted coldly and said, "For you are sensible, you know that you are just a concubine."

"Shut up." Mu Yongnian turned his head and glared at Mrs. Wang, but he didn't correct what Mu Shuyao said about the distinction between concubine and concubine. He must have never regarded himself as a concubine in his heart, Mu Shuyao thought so.

"But you are a princess, why can't you stop a mere general?" Mu Yongnian asked reproachfully.

"Father made a mistake again. May I ask father, did General Chu carry out the search yesterday?" Mu Shuyao glanced at the smug Mrs. Wang, and asked calmly/
"Although it is, but..."

"Since it is according to the decree, why do I not stop it? Could it be that my father wants me to resist the decree." Mu Shuyao paused and said: "Father can think clearly, if I resist the decree for the Mu family, Not only will I be convicted, but can the Mu family run away? If you stop General Chu from searching, he can make the Mu family invincible with just one crime, so father, don’t try lightly to do things against the emperor.”

Mu Yongnian was silenced by Mu Shuyao, and even the angry old lady woke up after Mu Shuyao's words.

Seeing that no one was talking anymore, Mu Shuyao turned around and went back to Bi Luoju. She didn't want to face these annoying people on the first day of the new year.

The next first stop was to Anyang Prince's Mansion. When Meng Shi heard that she was here, she hurriedly asked the nurse in charge to lead Mu Shuyao into the old princess's courtyard. What happened this time, Anyang Palace can't afford to lose that person.

"Old Concubine, Aunt Hua, happy new year!" Mu Shuyao wished the old concubine and Mrs. Meng a new year.

The old concubine was not happy when she heard this, she stared at Mu Shuyao, and said angrily, "This child, call my daughter-in-law Aunt Hua, why do you still call me old concubine and Grandmother Jiang?" Her maiden name is Jiang.

"Old princess, this is against the rules." Mu Shuyao smiled and said, "Shuyao knows that you love me, but I'm afraid some people in the house might hear it that way."

"You don't care what they say." The old concubine feigned anger and said: "Listen to what you like, and you have to accept it if you don't like it. Don't think that I am old and don't know their little plans. Just change your words. Great, I went to the emperor to ask for an imperial decree to accept you as a granddaughter, and I think he would not disagree."

Mu Shuyao really couldn't laugh or cry at the temper of the old princess.

Seeing that Mu Shuyao still didn't let go, the old concubine turned it into a lure, "If you don't change your mind today, girl, you won't get any red envelopes. Grandma has prepared a big red envelope for you."

Seeing that the old concubine was like a child, and seeing that Meng Shi and Gu Luoer beside her were also covering their mouths and laughing, Mu Shuyao said helplessly: "Then I will call you Grandma Jiang. Among the folks, grandma is more important than grandma." Seeing that the old concubine frowned, Mu Shuyao quickly added another sentence.

Only then did the old concubine's brows stretch, and she said to herself: "Grandma?" Then she nodded and said: "Well, it sounds like you are close, Yao girl, so I will call it this way in the future. Come, this is the red envelope that grandma gave you."

As she spoke, she took a big purse from the hand of the nanny behind her, stuffed it into Mu Shuyao's hand, and then told the nanny: "Lan'er, go to my room and take out the box of jewelry from the box."

Sister Lan took orders to go in, and after a while, she came out with a red sandalwood box.

Seeing this box, Meng asked suspiciously: "Mother, what is this..."

"I have recognized such a good granddaughter, why don't I give you a little gift." The old concubine opened the box with a smile, and took out a peony and butterfly Bu Yao from it to wear on Mu Shuyao's head. Wearing a set of light green winter clothes, which just matched this Bu Yao, "Look, how beautiful it is." The old concubine motioned for Lan Momo to bring a bronze mirror and let Mu Shuyao look at it by herself.

I saw the peony carved from suet white jade supported by the polished and thin green emerald leaves. .

"Grandma Jiang is too expensive, I can't accept it." Mu Shuyao said as she was about to take off the Bu Yao from her head.

"Hey, don't take it off after you put it on. I'm old, and it's just a pile of dust when I put it here. It's not as good as your little girl wearing it, and it's not worthy of the craftsmanship of the master sculptor back then." The princess pressed Mu Shuyao's hand to keep her from moving.

"But can't you give it to Sister Luo'er?" Mu Shuyao turned to Gu Luoer, but seeing that there was no trace of displeasure on her face, she said instead, "Yaoer, if grandma gives it to you, you can accept it." Come on, I don’t lack jewelry, not to mention you didn’t see that there is a big box with grandma, it will all be mine in the future.”
