Bright Spring

When Mu Sheng thought of this, his pace gradually slowed down.

3 Chapter Thirty

The three generations of Mu's family discuss matters in the old lady's room, usually on important matters.

Mu Zhen's father, Mu Sheng, was talking: "Prince Zhao is a prince, he is very favored by the sage, and now he doesn't even have a son. After Zhen'er gets married, she will be Princess Zhao. As long as she has a son, she will be the eldest son of King Zhao. For the prince. Zhen'er will have a good life all her life."

Her mother, Mrs. Chen, also seemed to see that Mu Zhen was unhappy, and then looked at Mu Zhen and said softly: "You are young, and there are many things you don't understand. People will change. What you value now will change in a few years." You will understand that it is because you are young and ignorant. If you listen to your parents, you will not suffer."

When her parents talked, Mu Zhen usually wouldn't be rude and silent, but now she didn't respond.

For some reason, she didn't feel happy at all, and she felt bored and panicked.However, she didn't disobey and talk back. Parents should be the ones to decide such things. Everyone is like this. Mu Zhen has no reason to resist... Parents speak to her first, they are already very fond of her.Perhaps they thought that their daughter was going to marry off and become a member of another family, or even become a princess, so they treated Mu Zhen much more politely.

Like Mu Zhen's younger brother, Mu Bin, who doesn't even have the qualifications to negotiate, and doesn't know anything.He is only ten years old, but his grandmother and parents have already decided who to marry.

At this time, Mrs. Geng said: "Since the emperor sent someone down, can Cheng'er still refuse? The eunuch claimed that he was looking for you to discuss, but you didn't follow the emperor's wishes! That firm and steady big hand dripped Blood. Mu Zhen still feels palpitations when she thinks about it.

I don't know since when, she felt very safe and at ease by Han Wang's side.She remembered those reassuring feelings, and also remembered those gentle eyes... The thought of becoming a prince and concubine couldn't keep her from getting lost; because once she became Princess Zhao, she would no longer feel that kind of peace of mind and tenderness.

So when recalling, the plainness of the first meeting also seemed so interesting.At that time, Mu Zhen thought that she could fool him by disguising herself as a man, so she foolishly pretended to be little brother.

Everything seems to have returned to the carefree time a few years ago.Mu Zhen remembered all kinds of past events, wiped her tears, and laughed alone, her heart was still so painful that she couldn't hold it back.

Only then did she realize that she didn't need to look for reasons or think hard about why she was like this.That time her reputation was damaged, she thought she was sacrificing herself for the whole family of the Mu family; but, if she hadn't already had that person in her heart, would she have really done it?

Mu Zhen was interested in Geng Hao in the past because she already knew that she and Geng Hao had a marriage contract; and she liked the drama of "The Romance of the West Chamber" very much, she yearned for the beautiful scenes in the drama, as if imitating the story in the drama .

Zhu Gaoxu broke in, but made her unprepared.Everything started, progressed, and ended quietly, and Mu Zhen didn't even know when her heart began to slowly change...

It would be great if people could only think about themselves, if they could make decisions for themselves!

...Xiping Hou Musheng couldn't wait to meet the eunuch in the palace again.

The two of them sat down as guests and hosts, and Mu Sheng pretended to be calm and said: "People in the Mu family say that they should not let down the grace of the Holy Majesty, I take it for granted. Never dare to refuse the grace of the Holy Majesty."

The eunuch smiled calmly, nodded and said: "Our family understands, we will leave Yunnan tomorrow and return to Beijing to return to our mission."

Mu Sheng said: "Eunuch finally came to Yunnan. I'll send someone to accompany him around. It doesn't matter if he returns to Beijing in a few days."

"Marquis Xiping's kindness, our family appreciates it. The emperor's errand is urgent." The eunuch waved his hand, pondered for a moment and seemed to have something to say.

Mu Sheng saw it and didn't say anything immediately.

Sure enough, the eunuch said: "Our family already knew that Marquis Xiping would reply like this."

Mu Sheng said: "Yes. I don't hesitate, I just want to tell my mother."

The eunuch said again: "Why don't you send Young Master Ling to live in the capital for a while? Young Master is in the capital, and he can be with the emperor's grandson to study and ride horses together, just like King Qianning and Prince Yiwen (Zhu Biao, reformed in the first year of Yongle) Posthumous "Emperor Xiaokang" as "Prince Yiwen") is generally as close as brothers, which is also a good story."

The eunuch became more and more polite, and smiled in a flattering tone, "If we can meet Zhang Fu's daughter, we can get to know each other first, haha!"

Because the eunuch had a smile on his face, Mu Sheng also smiled ugly... His heart immediately became like a mirror.

What companionship, Mu Bin went to the capital simply as a hostage.From this, Mu Sheng guessed that the King of Han might really be changed and moved out of Yunnan; by that time, Mu Sheng would be the only one in Yunnan, so it was necessary to send his son to the capital as a hostage first!

Mu Sheng was a little bit reluctant, Bin'er was only ten years old, and he was still not very sensible.Mu Sheng was worried that he would go far away.

But with that being the case, what choice is there?There might be an imperial decree to send Mu Bin to the capital.Mu Sheng felt that hesitating would be of no avail, so he nodded immediately, and said ignorantly, "This is a good thing!"

Chapter 331 Envy

When Duan Xuehen received Mu Zhen's letter, the sun was in the west, and the letter was delivered by an eunuch working at the gate of the palace.Mu Zhen wanted to ask her to meet up.

In the past two years, Duan Xuehen never went out with the Mu family, and he didn't even change his surname.Knowing that her cousin had an appointment, Duan Xuehen felt very sudden; she didn't really want to face the Mu family, but she also felt that something might be wrong with Mu Zhen.

In the past, the person who hated the Mu family the most was Duan Yang, and Duan Xuehen also believed that the Mu family was their enemy, and had never liked them.But for some reason, when she found out that she was also from the Mu family, Duan Xuehen gradually felt a little close to the members of the Mu family even though she had no contact with them... Probably because she felt that after the Mu family knew her background, they would not Will it hurt your family?

So Duan Xuehen said something to Han Wangfei Guo Wei, and left the palace.

The weather was fine, with a few white clouds floating in the clear sky.The air is full of the smell of flowers, and the weeping willows are fluttering in the wind.

Duan Xuehen still had her hair tied up and wore a green robe with a round collar, and walked to the South Gate not far from Hanwang Mansion.She found Mu Zhen under a willow tree next to the canal.

Mu Zhen still dressed up as a woman when she went out, but she has changed into a woman, and she hasn't seen her in a few years. Mu Zhen's figure can't be concealed by a man's attire. She is a handsome young woman at a glance. The front is very full, the waist is becoming more flexible, and the hip contour is also very round|round.Xu Shi has grown up, her beautiful heart-shaped face is more refined than a few years ago, and her skin is smoother and more delicate.

The girl from the Yi nationality next to Mu Zhen, Amei, still followed Mu Zhen, dressed in colorful and beautiful clothes.When Duan Xuehen found Mu Zhen just now, he was first attracted by Amei's bright clothes.

"Cousin!" Mu Zhen also noticed Duan Xuehen and waved her hand.

Duan Xuehen approached, clasped her fists and said, "I received Miss Mu's letter, so I rushed to the south gate. Miss Mu, do you want to tell me something?"

She had almost hurt Mu Zhen's life, and she felt guilty and caring when they met her.But Duan Xuehen's face is very cold, she is not a person who is used to showing her heart.

Mu Zhen was different, Duan Xuehen clearly noticed that her eyes seemed to have been crying, but Mu Zhen still had a beautiful smile on her face, and her tone of greeting was very affectionate and generous.

But Mu Zhen seemed to be hesitant, and didn't respond for a while, then she raised her head and smiled and said, "Cousin, not far from the city is Dianchi Lake, I haven't been there for a long time, let's go for a walk by the water."

Duan Xuehen nodded.

The group of three went out of the city gate.There is a war going on in An Nanguo, but Yunnan has been calm recently, and even the officers and soldiers guarding the gate are a little listless.The three young ladies went out of the city gate empty-handed, and no one paid any attention to them. In peace, these officers and soldiers only thought about collecting tax money for the goods.

When we came to the shore of Dianchi Lake, the cool breeze blew on the vast water surface, which made people barely feel a bit of the chilly spring.

The scenery inside and outside Yunnan Fucheng has hardly changed in the past few years, the roads and scenery are still the same.Duan Xuehen remembered that near the city gate by the lake, there used to be a thatched hut for keeping fish, but now it seems that there is no more.

When Mu Zhen and Geng Hao were arguing near the thatched shed, Duan Xue hated seeing them.

At this moment, Duan Xuehen suddenly noticed that there were tears on Mu Zhen's face.Mu Zhen quietly avoided her face, took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears.Duan Xuehen couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you?"

Mu Zhen shook her head, wiped it off hastily, and smiled again, "It's nothing, I shouldn't come out to see old scenes recently, it's easy to remind people of many things..." After she finished speaking, her eyes that had just been dried were wet again. full of tears.

Duan Xue hated not knowing what she was sad about, or what she was thinking of, but she didn't ask.If there is no purpose, she doesn't like to inquire about other people's affairs.

However, Mu Zhen's contradictory performance made the bright and beautiful mountains and rivers in full bloom in spring seem to be covered with a little sadness of memories.

Duan Xuehen took a look at Mu Zhen's face, and felt that the smile on her small face and tears was really distressing.But Duan Xuehen just said "hmm".

At this time, Mu Zhen let out a long breath, wiped her eyes quickly, and her expression became serious: "I heard from my father that there is a team of guards in the Han Palace in the past few days, who is going to escort someone to An Nanguo. Cousin Do you want to go?"

Duan Xuehen stood where he was, shook his head and said: "In the letter brought back by the King of Han, I was not asked to go."

"Oh!" Mu Zhen replied.

There was a long silence.

Duan Xuehen hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Could it be that Ms. Mu has something important to tell the King of Han? You can write a letter and hand it over to me within two days. I'll take it to the guard general for you and take it to An Nanguo.". .

Mu Zhen said: "Forget it, why should I tell him, and what is the reason? But it will only make him more troublesome. It would not be good if others knew about it."
