Chapter 222: Is it a boy or a girl?
Mu Qingyu gritted her teeth in anger, "Asshole, you really can't judge a person by his appearance."
"Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. We need to inform Father and Big Brother immediately."
Mu Luan said calmly, "Since the court has shortened the construction period so much, Zuo Cheng must know the hidden truth. We must find the pine wood that was replaced as soon as possible."
Mu Qingyu frowned and revealed another shocking news, saying: "I just received a message from the Ministry of Works, saying that Zuo Cheng cared about the people of Yangcheng and decided to go to Yangcheng half a month in advance to check the progress, and will set off in a few days.
Yaoyao, Yangcheng is located in a valley with complex terrain, making it extremely difficult to search. I'm afraid it will be too late to retrieve the timber before Zuo Cheng arrives in Yangcheng."
"No!"
Mu Luan said with a firm look in his eyes, "Zuo Cheng's going to Yangcheng is both an obstacle and an opportunity. The pine wood used to build the Lingqu Canal is not a small amount. Second brother needs to go to Yangcheng in person and tell eldest brother and father to keep an eye on Zuo Cheng. If anything happens to the wood, Zuo Cheng's work will be in vain."
Mu Qingyu's mind turned slightly, and he immediately understood the deep meaning of Yaoyao's words, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll go now."
But he walked a few steps and then stopped again, frowning and said: "You and mother..."
Before leaving, my father asked him to take good care of Yaoyao and my mother. If he left the Mu Mansion...
Mu Luan smiled and said, "As long as my father and brother are safe, the Mu Mansion is the safest place."
Mu Qingyu looked at her calm and composed appearance, suppressing the heartache in his eyes.
He patted her head gently and said, "Don't worry, I'm leaving now."
Mu Luan walked to the threshold, looked at his second brother's disappearing back, and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that everything would go well.
Looking up, I saw thick clouds covering the General's Mansion from above the eaves, like a thick black net. The air was dry and stuffy, making it a little hard to breathe.
Not long after Mu Qingyu left, Madam Mu entered Shaoguang Courtyard carrying a bowl of soup.
"Mother, why are you here?"
Madam Mu put the tray on the table, pulled her to sit on the chair, and said, "The weather has been unpredictable these days. You were not in good health when you were a child. Once you encounter this kind of weather, you will definitely feel uncomfortable for a few days. I specially asked them to make some nourishing soup for you. Please try it."
When her second brother left just now, Mu Luan managed not to tear up.
Looking at my concerned mother at this moment, my nose suddenly felt sore.
Madam Mu was mixing soup for her in a celadon bowl, and she caught sight of her watery eyes at a glance.
He quickly put down the celadon bowl and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mu Luan quickly suppressed the moisture in her eyes, shook her head and chuckled, "Nothing, I just feel really good having my mother around."
"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about?" Mrs. Mu smiled gently and picked up the celadon bowl and put it in her hand.
Thinking of something, he suddenly asked, "I just saw Qingyu, that kid, he looked very busy, I wonder what he was busy with?"
Mu Luan was stirring the soup in the bowl with a spoon. Hearing this, he looked up at A Niang.
Seeing that she didn't suspect anything, Mu Luan didn't say much. He smiled and said, "Maybe there is something urgent in the Beiya Forbidden Army Camp."
Madam Mu sighed and said, "It's not a good idea for him to stay in the Northern Yamen Forbidden Army Camp all day. You should arrange a formal position for your father to stay by his side so that he can concentrate on his work."
Mu Luan retorted: "Although Second Brother is always absent-minded, he is actually very careful. He was able to break into the Northern Yamen Forbidden Army Camp alone, which has proved his ability. He may not be considered a serious person if he stays with Father."
Madam Mu looked at her helplessly, without saying a word.
Mu Luan quickly lowered her eyes, scooped a spoonful of soup into her mouth, and drank it silently.
Mrs. Mu was actually very relieved.
They have a good relationship among brothers and sisters. Compared with the intrigues of others, she and her husband are naturally relieved.
If only it could continue like this.
I’m afraid Heng’er is too stubborn and would rather die than live again. How long can this warm moment last?
She turned to look at the invitation in the maid's hand and said, "Give it to me."
Mu Luan was drinking soup and, smelling it, raised her eyes curiously towards the thick stack of business cards.
"what is this?"
Madam Mu placed her business cards on the table one by one and said, "After returning from the autumn hunt, the days were relatively peaceful. In the past few days, many noble men have sent visiting cards, many of whom want to marry you."
Mu Luan paused holding the spoon and thought for a moment.
The autumn hunting lasted only one day and one night, and she did not meet many young men during the day.
I just followed my father and brother at night and sat down at the banquet obediently. How come there were so many visiting cards?
Madam Mu saw her stunned look and comforted her, "Don't worry, my great general's mansion is not something that everyone can look up to. The most important thing is your feelings."
After the autumn hunting trip, Mu Luan had the idea of finding someone to marry.
But there are more important things to do right now, so let’s wait until my father and brother return safely before making any plans.
Even if there is no rain or snow in late autumn, the prosperity and decline are still beyond our control.
In the blink of an eye, another seven or eight days passed, and a ray of warm light rarely penetrated the gloomy sky.
In recent days, Mu Luan sent Yun He to secretly pay attention to Zuo Cheng's every move.
On the surface, he looks like an honest man.
Normally he only traveled between the office and home, and occasionally went to the palace.
As for who he was going to meet, it was unknown.
By the end of autumn, there was still no news from his father and brother, but Zuo Cheng had already set off for Yangcheng.
When Yunhe came to report, as soon as he left, someone came hurriedly from the front yard.
She said that the lady asked her to go to the front yard.
Mu Luan was weighed down with worries and wasn't in high spirits. Not wanting her mother to notice anything, she put some powder on her pale face and put on some lip balm.
I was thinking all the way, worried whether my mother had discovered something in the past few days.
It was not until he turned the corridor and saw the solemn scene in the courtyard that Mu Luan suddenly felt uneasy.
In the courtyard, there were not only A Niang and a group of maids and servants, but also a few unfamiliar faces.
The leader, wearing a red robe and holding a dustpan in his hand, had his back to her and his face could not be seen clearly.
Why would the palace send someone to the general's mansion at this time?
Mu Luan was full of doubts but remained calm as he walked down the stairs step by step and walked towards A Niang.
Madam Mu heard the footsteps, looked back, and her expression became a little solemn.
"Mother, what's wrong?" Mu Luan stepped forward and asked softly.
Madam Mu glanced at the eunuch with his back turned and shook her head.
The man in red slowly turned around, revealing a proud pink face.
The moment he saw Mu Luan, a glimmer of light appeared in his sharp eyes.
The girl was wearing a purple dress, which was gorgeous and bright. The warm sunlight was like a halo, lightly spreading on her soft eyebrows, and her light makeup made her fair skin look even more delicate.
She is worthy of being the beauty favored by the prince, she is indeed uniquely beautiful.
