Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 769 Perfunctory
After finding Mo Shuyuan and the two from the small side room in the east wing of the banquet hall, all the guests quietly turned the matter up quite tacitly.

Although what King Nan'an and Miss Namu have done this time is indeed extremely impolite, but today is the [-]th birthday of Mrs. Mu of the Duke's Mansion, and they should not be guests as guests. Turn your attention too far.

What's more, this matter doesn't have much to do with the Mu family. After all, the stubborn Mu Langzhong is notoriously fearful in the court.

Mrs. Xiao Er always forbade him to intervene in the matters of raising her daughter. As the elder brother of the first house, Mu Guogong was not willing to intervene too much in the second house's family affairs.

In this way... Whoever taught Mu Shiyan to be like this can be seen clearly at a glance.

——How the second Mrs. Xiao married into the Duke's Mansion back then, most of the people here still have an impression in their hearts. As the saying goes, "the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked", Mu Shiyan, who was brought up by her, can do such a thing now It's not that surprising.

Besides, King Nan'an's mind may not be pure, what is drunk and out of control for a while, there are so many men in this fight, everyone understands it.

Everyone thought so, and closed their ears contentedly.

——Although they have never seen the scene in the side room with their own eyes, there are a group of dudes headed by His Royal Highness Mo Shujin, and they can roughly glimpse eight||nine points from their vivid descriptions. The beautiful scenery inside.

In short, when Mu Wenjing and Mu Wenhua adjusted their mentality and rushed back to the front hall, everyone stopped talking about the "disappearance" of King Nan'an and others, and started drinking again and chatting about various things. homely.

Once this matter was revealed, the rest of the birthday banquet went smoothly.

The atmosphere of the dinner party was very lively. Mrs. Mu celebrated her [-]th birthday happily. Mu Wenjing also calmly made up for the regret that she never gave her mother her [-]th birthday. The guests got such a big gossip The news was followed by a meal of food and drinks, and finally the host and guest had a good time.

In the early morning of the next day, as agreed, Mo Shuyuan reported his affairs with Mu Shiyan to Emperor Yunjing, and asked the emperor to marry him.

Mo Jingyao was overjoyed when he heard this, and in order to prevent Mo Shuyuan from regretting changing his mind, he even ordered Yu Deyong to draft the imperial edict on the spot on the spot.

Mo Shuyuan, who had received the imperial decree, was not very happy - just as Emperor Yunjing, Mo Junli and others expected, Mo Shuyuan really regretted it after returning to the mansion after the birthday banquet.

Firstly, Mu Shiyan's appearance and background are really not that good; secondly, most noble girls from high-ranking families don't want to be concubines, let alone see concubines who are one step ahead of them. into the house.

If he marries Mu Shiyan, it means that he will lose his relationship with some ladies from top families from then on—even if he is willing to demote Mu Shiyan, the "wife" to a concubine, there will still be many Because the noble girl disliked Mu Shiyan before they entered the palace, she refused to marry him.

Calculated in this way, wouldn't he lose a lot of help in the future?
Because of this, Mo Shuyuan, who had thought it through clearly, regretted it at the time, but there was such a dude as Mo Shujin, what he did with Mu Shiyan was spread throughout the entire capital overnight.

When he woke up this morning, his deeds were already being sung everywhere in the streets and alleys.

He listened to the words of the common people, "An infatuated child who is not married to Miss Mu" and "A man of talent and beauty, moving the world", he felt his stomach churning uncontrollably, almost making him eat all the banquets he ate last night Vomited out.

——How did this thing spread like this?
No, how did this matter get spread! !
When Mo Shuyuan heard the news, he went crazy immediately. Right now, the common people have a good feeling for him because of this "love", but he is really hard to get off——

If he does not marry Mu Shiyan as a concubine this time for the benefit of the future, but instead only asks his father for an imperial edict to be a side concubine, then the people's new affection for him will immediately turn into a wave cloud smoke.

It's not even just a cloud of smoke, once the people who feel deceived and deceived make a scene, he might be backlashed by the crowd, so he can't even touch the shadow of Datong!
But if he gritted his teeth and married Mu Shiyan as his concubine because of his reputation and the favor of the common people...

After receiving the imperial decree, Mo Shuyuan clenched his fists with hatred when he thought of this incident. He carefully weighed it all morning, and finally he was afraid of the backlash from the public opinion, so he suppressed his nausea and invited this decree of marriage.

Fortunately, he was not the only one who was put on fire by everyone this time. The old story of the second Mrs. Xiao drugging Mu Wenhua and marrying into the Duke's mansion, now, for some reason, everyone Qi turned out.

With his future mother-in-law supporting him, his life is obviously much easier.

In addition, the rumors in Beijing used to change very quickly, as long as he endured it patiently for a month and a half, the people would soon turn their attention to other places.

Yes, as long as we get through this period...

As for the issue of the position of the main concubine... At worst, when he finds out which lady is in the future, he will find a suitable reason and suspend Mu Shiyan.

Miss Namu on the left and right is not the daughter of the Duke, and the old lady Xiao from the Xiao family is also coming of age.

Mu Wenjing will not interfere too much with the second wife's affairs, and the loss of the Xiao family's power is a foregone conclusion. At that time, Mu Shiyan will have no support, and the second wife Xiao is alone, the mother and daughter will not be feared at all.

The calculations in Mo Shuyuan's mind jingled, and his attitude towards Mu Shiyan became more contemptuous and reckless.

In his eyes, Mu Shiyan is now an abandoned woman who will be dismissed sooner or later, so the three books and six rituals were also prepared to be extraordinarily perfunctory by him.

Poor Mu Shiyan is still dreaming of being able to "marry beautifully" in Chaohuaju, and she deliberately dressed up on the day when Mo Shuyuan sent people to Nazheng (the fourth ceremony of the six ceremonies) to be hired.

She had been waiting at the gate of the Duke's mansion like a peacock with its screen opened early in the morning, but the betrothal gift was so shabby that it was not enough for the gift book sent by the Duke Jin's mansion to Mu Xiyin and others the day before yesterday (it was used to specify the types and numbers of the betrothal gifts, Three Books Second Book) on half!
Even in a certain sense, it is not as generous as the return gift prepared by the Duke's Mansion!

——This is completely different from what was described in the gift book handed over by Nan'an Palace half a month ago.

This is totally different from what she imagined!
"Mother, I don't want this marriage to happen, and I don't want to marry in the Nan'an Palace either!" Inside Chaohua Residence, Mu Shiyan, who had accepted the offer, angrily dropped the teacup on the table, and the porcelain cup fell to the ground and shattered into a puddle. .

Xiao Shuhua raised her eyebrows suddenly when she heard this, and the displeasure in her eyes became more and more obvious: "Yan'er, now you have accepted other people's letter of engagement, and kept his betrothal gift from Nan'an Palace, why are you getting so angry here? , What kind of pettiness are you playing?"

"Or, you really don't want to marry King Nan'an now?"

　very perfunctory
