Chapter 233 I'm old, I don't wash my hair(1/2)
Huo Shujing directly poured the cold tea on the table on Shangguan Prajna's face and shouted sternly, "What are you thinking about? The priest Wuya cannot leave Lingjiu Mountain, don't you understand? The priest of the Moon Worshiping Sect will be backfired if he leaves Lingjiu Mountain!"
"If you have a whimsical idea, I will throw you directly in front of Xiao Linye and Xu Muqing and tell them that you are Ji Yingyue. This time I came back to take revenge and wanted to destroy their family. What should you do when I see it?"
Shangguan Prajna shivered and shivered. Her body trembled for a while, her face pale, and she said as if she woke up from a dream, "Your Highness, Prince, I was wrong. It's because I was out of control. Please forgive me, I won't come up with bad ideas anymore."
She didn't want to fall into the hands of Xiao Linye and Xu Muqing, because she really didn't want to die without a burial place.
"Then calm down. General Weiyuan's mansion cannot do anything, so I will give up some unimportant things. Start with Xiao Linye and their twin brothers. Are you ready? Have you contacted the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace?"
Shangguan Banruo bit her lip and swallowed her hatred. She endured the rage in her heart and said, "I will contact their people when it dawn. I must kill Xu Muqing's son and let her live in pain for the rest of her life."
Huo Shujing was like walking out of the underworld, "Maybe, you can find a way to give Xiao Linye medicine to cut off his son. Wouldn't it be even more shocking to kill their son when he no longer has the ability to have fertility?
If all the charges are pushed to Xu Muqing, it is really hard to say whether she can withstand the anger of the emperor and the empress dowager."
Shangguan Banruo was worried, "Is this really possible? But Xu Muqing is a miraculous doctor. Can she deceive Xiao Linye by poisoning her in the eyes? Don't steal chickens and lose rice, and shoot yourself in the foot, then things will be even worse."
Huo Shujing glanced at her lightly and said in a calm voice, "That depends on your ability. Anyway, all I want is that girl. As for other things, I don't care."
When he got the precious medicine and refined the immortal medicine, even if he could not beat Xiao Linye and Xu Muqing and survived them to death, he would be the final winner.
Shangguan Banruo was struggling fiercely in her heart. After a while, she patted her thighs fiercely and took it a break. "Then let me try it and see if the spies and inner men in the palace can start. If they can, it will be better. If they can't, there will be no way."
Huo Shujing listened to the search outside and frowned with beautiful eyebrows, "It's better to be faster, I won't wait too long. I don't know how long this mansion will last. It's best to carry their daughter out before Xiao Linye's people find it, and I'll take it back to Nanyue."
Shangguan Banruo replied with little joy, "I'll do my best. Prince, please wait patiently for a while. This matter is not urgent. We have to slowly solve it. We only have a precious opportunity. If we are not careful, we will lose all the game. I can never afford to lose again."
"Let your maids keep calm and don't let the guards of Liang State catch the handle and reveal their traces, which will implicate us."
Huo Shujing reminded again that this woman is not stupid, but she is often controlled by emotions and does things that make people disappoint. If it weren't for the lack of choice, he wouldn't want to cooperate with Shangguan Prajna at all!
"I know, I want to see Xiao Linye and Xu Muqing become enemies, and their families are destroyed. I especially want to see Xu Muqing being pushed into hell from the clouds, ruined, and scolded by thousands of people."
Shangguan Banruo said unconvincedly. Whenever she thought of the losses she suffered from Xu Muqing, the humiliation she suffered, and the fate of her father and brother who had fallen to her now, she really wanted to crush Xu Muqing to ashes.
"Prepare, I hope you can succeed and we can all get what we want."
Even though Shangguan Banruo felt very hated, he could only suppress all his emotions to the deepest part of his heart, like a poisonous snake hidden in the grass, spitting out a letter, wishing he could find an opportunity immediately to put Xu Muqing to death.
At this time, she didn't remember at all. She once again and again wanted to use Xu Muqing to get the power of General Weiyuan's Mansion to fight for power and profit for Xiao Lince so that she could become the queen smoothly.
She also forgot how much harm she caused to Xu Muqing. She always felt that others were sorry for her, but she didn't feel that she had done something wrong at all.
After the sky was completely dawn, Shangguan Prajna began to put on a thin mask, and left the mansion with her maid, and went to the bustling market to prepare for the action of conveying messages.
In the Ningguo Hou Mansion, Liu Chengjun prepared a lot of medicinal materials and food for the maid to carefully wrap it, preparing to visit Xu Muyan at the General's Mansion.
"Jun'er, what are you in a hurry to do so early? Who is sick? Today, you are not at home and have a good rest. What do you want to do when you run out early in the morning?" Mrs. Hou Shaw stopped her son and asked with concern and a little reproach.
"Mom, wasn't the second lady from General Weiyuan's mansion almost kidnapped yesterday and was seriously injured? I'll bring some gifts to visit her and let Shi Tong accompany me later." Liu Chengjun did not hide his mother anymore.
Shaw opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and the absurd thought surged into her heart, making her feel bad. "Jun'er, you shouldn't have that kind of thought about the second lady in the General's Mansion?"
A ray of light emerged from Liu Chengjun's narrow eyes, and a momentum that was not to be ignored all over his body, "Mom, I'm not young anymore, it's time to get married and settle down. What do you think?"
Mrs. Ning Guohou's head was buzzing, and she couldn't even say anything, "Jun'er, did you like her, or did she insist on pestering you? Why haven't I heard of you admiring that second lady before? When did it happen?"
She was not mentally prepared at all. In the past, she asked her son to visit those noble girls in the family many times, but her hair turned white with worry. Her son, who had a very big idea, did not react at all. Now, she has brought her such shocking news directly, and she doesn't know how to view this matter.
Liu Chengjun's cold and thin lips curled up a light curve, "Mom, what girl do you think can withstand my cold words? If I don't want to, no one can force me. Okay, I'll go to Shitong first and ask her to accompany me, otherwise it would be too eye-catching for me to go by myself."
After Liu Chengjun walked out several feet away, Shaw finally realized it and trotted all the way, "Jun'er, wasn't that second lady kidnapped in front of everyone yesterday? The girl you are happy with is General Weiyuan's daughter. Why don't you tell me about such a big thing?"
She was in a mess and hadn't reacted yet.
Liu Chengjun resisted the impatientness in his heart and said, "Mom, she was not kidnapped. She was found in the place where she disappeared last night. She was trapped in the secret room by the warlock of the South Vietnamese country with forbidden techniques. Before they could even kidnap Mu Yan, she was a clean and innocent girl, and I like her very much."
Shaw's face was embarrassed, "Mom doesn't mean that. Mom is saying that the second lady may still be sleeping and recuperating from the wounds. Will it be too early for you to pass by? Mom, no matter which girl you want to marry, as long as you have a good character and good appearance, and are a little smarter, even if your family background is a little worse, my mother doesn't mind."
She pointed to the gifts that were moved to the carriage by the servants and asked carefully, "You come to the door rashly. If General Xu and the princess don't welcome you and don't say good-heartedly to you, it will be difficult to end and embarrassing?"
Liu Chengjun thought of Mu Yan's well-behaved and gentle appearance, his heart almost softened into a pool of water, and love spreads in his heart, "Mom, don't worry about this, your son can handle everything. Who is your son? What do you want to know? When I come back from the general's mansion, I will ask him if hello?"
He still wants to see Mu Yan as soon as possible. She suffered so much yesterday and was watched by so many people. I wonder if she felt wronged.
He narrowed his eyes and a cool tone rang, "Mom, you don't think Mu Yan's reputation has been damaged, so you don't accept her as your daughter-in-law. I'm just saying ugly things first. Your son finally had a girl he loved and wanted to get married. If you and your father disagree, I won't make it difficult for you to marry Mu Yan.
The forced melon is not sweet. If you stop her and don’t like her, she won’t be happy even if she gets married. I can only bear the pain of giving up.
But I shouldn't think about getting married and having children anymore, nor do I want any concubines to live with each other. At that time, I will have to live alone for the rest of my life, and naturally I will have no children and grandchildren."
Shaw knocked on his head twice in anger, and scolded him sternly, "Liu Chengjun, what nonsense are you talking here early in the morning, and cursing yourself of absent-minded grandson. Do you want to piss your mother to death or your father? Who said we don't agree with you to marry a wife? As long as you are happy, even if you marry an ugly monster, we don't care about you, and we are not living with you."
It is not a good thing for a son to be too smart to have a sense of opinion. As parents, they can't resist it at all times. They are often so angry that their heads hurt, and they have the heart to beat him up.
The unexpected surprise on Liu Chengjun's face disappeared and he changed into a smiley expression, "Mom, this means you don't object. You and my father don't have any objections to whom I want to marry, and you will not intervene too much, right?"
Shaw Brothers resisted the anger that came up, "Who cares about who you love to marry, but there is one thing that you must have a child in the future and we cannot break the back of our family."
My son's wings are hard, he doesn't listen to his parents, and has his own opinions. What else can he do besides accepting them? It's impossible to force the child to be impatient for the rest of his life and never get married.
Liu Chengjun smiled with satisfaction, his handsome face looked like a monster, "My parents are indeed reasonable, no wonder the emperor said that our family style is good, and my mother is really the best mother in the world."
"By the way, mother, you shouldn't be right or wrong. On the surface, you said you follow me, but you changed your mind later? You don't think Mu Yan is no longer innocent, so you don't look down on her everywhere and just want to use a slowdown strategy, right?"
Shaw stared at him quietly, "Is your mother the kind of person who goes against her word and mind?
It was spread throughout the capital last night, saying that the second lady of General Weiyuan's mansion was so lucky. The spies of the South Vietnamese just imprisoned her in a secret room, bitten by poisonous spiders and poisonous scorpions, and suffered some physical injuries.
The respected Taoist priests in the capital all said that she had fallen into the hands of a bad man, and the gongsha sand on her arm was still complete.
Mom is not the kind of stubborn and pedantic person. If you like her, after the limelight has passed during this period, you will ask the matchmaker to go to the general's house to propose marriage. Don't choose the present, do you understand?"
Liu Chengjun didn't expect that it would be so smooth with his mother, and his mood was even more pleasant than before. "Mom is such a reasonable person. Why am I so lucky to have such a good mother? I'm so happy. By the way, new products have been released in the beautiful rouge and water powder shop. I'll buy it for you. My mother will definitely be radiant when she uses it, and she will be ten years younger than now!"
"You kid, why didn't you find that you were so slick before? Well, since you have identified someone as a little girl, don't waste your time anymore. Get engaged as soon as possible and find a good day to get married."
Mrs. Hou also laughed. She had no objection to the second lady of General Weiyuan's mansion. The two families are well-known. In the past, the Empress had saved her daughter's life one after another. How could there be any bad things for such a girl?
However, she felt a strong concern in her heart, "Jun'er, will General Xu and Princess dislike your age and unwilling to let your daughter marry you? And the emperor and the queen, do they agree?"
Liu Chengjun was saddened by his mother's suspicion. He was so angry that he said slowly, "Maybe Mu Yan is the one who likes me, I'm old. How could you doubt your son like this? I don't want to tell you."
Mrs. Hou was so angry that she kicked her son gently on the leg, "I still like you not washing your hair. Look in the mirror and you can cook your hair. My mother smells it here. If you go to the General's Mansion like this, you are sure that General Xu and Mrs. Xu will not have any objections to you?"
Liu Chengjun wrinkled his nose and sniffed it gently, believing in skepticism, "Does it really smell so much? Why can't I smell it?"
He also touched his hair with his hand, and had to admit that the feel was not so flowing and a little oily. Now it was his turn to compromise, "I'll wash my hair now, it's okay."
The first time we met, we couldn't let Mu Yan's parents dislike him for not being clean and ignorant.
After seeing her son turn back to wash her hair, Shaw went directly to her daughter's yard and asked with excitement in her heart, "Shi Tong, your brother has a girl he loves. Do you know about this?"
Liu Shitong jumped up from the bed with excitement, "Really? My brother's ten thousand-year-old iron tree is really about to bloom. Which girl from the family has such great charm that she actually took down my brother?"
"It's the second lady of General Weiyuan's Mansion, Shi Tong, have you ever seen that girl? I only know that she is the queen's sister and is loved by the whole family. She also came to our Ningguo Marquis Mansion with the Queen last time, but at that time, I was all focused on you, and I didn't pay attention to what the girl looked like, was she beautiful, and how about her temper?"
Liu Shitong was so shocked that her eyes were about to fall out, "Mom, do you think my brother likes Mu Yan? I didn't expect that my brother actually liked that kind of beautiful, cute, simple little girl. I'm still a little confused now. Please let me relax for a while."
Shaw waited patiently for his daughter to calm down, "Shi Tong, can you tell me the specific situation about the queen's sister now? What kind of girl is she? My mother only knows that she was almost kidnapped by a spy from Nanyue yesterday. It was three Taoist masters with high moral character and respectability who calculated the place where she was imprisoned and rescued her from the secret room."
"The queen's sister, she looks very beautiful, gentle, virtuous, well-educated and well-educated. I'm talking about her in front of outsiders, but Mu Yan is very cute in front of the queen, she is very simple in her mind, has no bad intentions, and she also protects her sister very much. She is the most beloved girl in the general's mansion, three years younger than me."
Why didn't she realize before that her brother was like a man who looked cold and affectionate but burst out but couldn't help but feel unstoppable. But her brother's eyes are indeed good. Mu Yan has a good character and a good temper. But she was confused in her heart. Do such a beautiful, simple and beautiful little girl really likes her brother?
The mutters in the heart of Mrs. Ning Guohou disappeared, "Then I feel relieved. I am most afraid that your brother has a bad look. He fell in love with the kind of fierce, unreasonable, selfish and short-sighted woman who comes back, causing trouble for the family."
Liu Shitong said with a smile and cry, "Mom, my brother is twenty-four years old, he is an old man. He knows better than you what kind of wife is suitable for him. You see, this is just a good choice. I am worried that the girl's family will respect him and will marry her daughter to him. Mu Yan is not as good as her hair, she is so younger than my brother."
Shaw Brothers was unhappy, "My son is handsome, has a good temper and has a dissatisfaction, and he loves his wife. He has a good family background and has learned well. Why don't he agree? Looking around in the entire capital, how many people who are as young as your brother have become third-rank officials?"
Liu Shitong's mouth twitched. In her mother's eyes, her brother was the best in the entire capital. No one except the emperor could compare to it. She had to understand.
"Okay, then I wish my brother to get what he wants and marry a beautiful family as soon as possible, okay? Mom, are you satisfied with this?"
Shaw was a little happier and said proudly, "That's right, do you dare to say that your brother is not good? Mu Yan's marriage to your brother is a perfect match for men and women. They are in love with each other again. How great is it."
Liu Shitong was so angry that she was itchy, "My brother has concealed it so well. I didn't know about such a big thing before. His mouth was so tight, just like a clam shell."
She said something and didn't know what she thought of. Her face turned red and a heat surged up. She seemed to be ineligible to say that the matter between her brother and Su Mujing was still hidden from her family until now.
Su Mujing has already looked forward to the days. At the end of this month, he will ask someone to come to talk about this matter with his parents first, and then come to propose marriage. At that time, her mother will probably be very surprised.
"Now my mother just hopes that your brother will get married soon. You see, he is almost thirty years old. Children as old as him can go to school. He is still lonely. Your father and I are so anxious that our hair is white, but he is just like nothing. Do you think it's annoying?"
After hearing his mother's complaints, Liu Shitong couldn't help but feel funny, "Mom, it's better to have a relationship between two people in marriage. It's not sweet to twist melons. If the fate is not right, it won't be happy even if you are tied up before you get married, right? My brother is so good now. The girl he wants to marry has a good temper and a good family background, and is beautiful and smart. When he gets his wife in, I don't know how harmonious and beautiful life will be."
The daughter's consolation made Mrs. Ningguo Hou feel much better. Her previous complaints disappeared, "You are right. Now your brother just wants to get married. Maybe his mother will be able to hold her grandson in two years. Finally, it is no longer an illusory dream."
"Shitong, if your brother gets married to the second lady of the General's Mansion, my mother will only worry about your lifelong affairs. Your brother has a good vision and likes the daughter-in-law you choose very much. You should also look for it with your eyes open. It's better if your family background is similar to our family. It's important to be a good match. But you must find someone who treats you very well. Only by being in good character can you feel at ease."
Her daughter had missed it once before. Who knew that the emperor was infected with a lot of poisons and was terminally ill and could still fight back. She regretted it so much that her intestines were bruised, so she could only give up.
Liu Shitong remembered the things that happened to her and Su Mujing in Youzhou, and the letters they wrote when they returned to the capital. When they occasionally drank tea together outside, his considerate and meticulous behavior surged in his heart.
She didn't dare to talk to her mother yet, and nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, mom, I will definitely have a good vision. Then I will find a good man, so that my mother will definitely be very satisfied. Brother, isn't he going to the general's mansion? I also want to go and have a look and talk to Mu Yan."
Mrs. Ningguo Hou wanted her daughter to explore Xu Muyan's tone. "Shitong, ask indirectly, see if the people in the General's Mansion are satisfied with your brother? Your brother finally wants to get married. We can't lose our courtesy and mess up the matter."
Liu Shitong clearly felt her mother's excitement and excitement, and she felt relieved, "Then I will observe it carefully at that time to formulate corresponding countermeasures. Mom, then you can wait for my news at home."
Not long after, Liu Chengjun had washed his hair and blew it dry. He looked refreshed and came to his sister cleanly.
"Shitong, please accompany me to the General's Mansion."
To be continued...
