The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 276
Of course Tu Zhen knew that what Mu Xu said was right, but since he took the throne, he has been tortured by some civil servants, so it is not to be seen that kind of boastful talk, only talking about rules and ancestral system. He changed the subject,
"Okay, cousin, don't speak for those people, let's talk about the Embroidery Guard. Since my cousin no longer in charge of the Embroidery Guard, the Embroidery Guard has been getting worse day by day. This time it's such a big deal. , It’s really disappointing that we didn’t detect any rumors in advance.”

Of course, Mu Xu chose to speak for his own people, "Your Majesty can't blame them all. What happened this time is indeed forgivable, because their current energy is being absorbed by the Maitreya Cult, and it is inevitable that they will be negligent in front of other people."

"Oh, speaking of which, last time my cousin told me that Maitreya Sect demon policewoman, was she arrested and brought to justice?" Tu Yu's group of rebels was about to end, so Tu Zhen's attention now, Then turn to another group of people who want to rebel.

"It has been roughly figured out, and there must be good news coming soon." Mu Xu smiled and talked about his previous plan with Feng Ziying and others.

Tu Zhen said happily, "That's good. If we can catch the warning, maybe we can find a breakthrough from him, find out the true identity of the leader of Maitreya Sect and other high-level people, and wipe them all out."

To be honest, Mu Xu didn't have much hope for this. Even if all the senior members of the Maitreya Sect were exterminated, at most it would only deal a heavy blow to them. It is completely impossible to completely eradicate this kind of cult.Even if the science and economy were so developed in the previous life, some people would believe in those cults, let alone in ancient times when productivity was low.In these years, if ordinary people encounter disasters or unsatisfactory years, they will always pin their hopes on illusory gods and Buddhas. In this way, it will naturally give those cults an opportunity to take advantage of.But even though Mu Xu knew it in his heart, he didn't say anything about it, so it should be regarded as a good hope for the apprentice.

Tu Zhen then said another thing, "Will Prince Teng be involved?"

Mu Xu replied truthfully, "From the current clues, it is very likely that he knew about it, but there is no real evidence."

Tu Zhen sneered and said, "I've wanted to deal with this guy with both ends of the head for a long time. If I find reliable evidence this time, I must give him a good look."

Mu Xu knew that Wang Ziteng had been deeply concerned about the collusion between Tu Yu and Tu Yu when Tu Zhen was involved in the Iron Net Mountain change, so he naturally would not intercede for him uninterestedly. The evidence, he can't escape, who let him be the head of the Wang family, and he has a close relationship with the father of the police illusion!"

"My cousin is right. Anyway, I absolutely don't believe that he is innocent."

……

Mu Xu entered the palace in the morning, and when he returned to the mansion, it was after noon. He came to his courtyard and felt that the surroundings were very quiet. When he entered the room, he saw Daiyu lying on the couch, facing inside, taking an afternoon nap. .

Xueyan, who was fanning Daiyu at the side, was about to say hello when she saw Mu Xu came back, but Mu Xu made a silent gesture, took the fan from Xueyan, and waved her hand while fanning Daiyu. Signal the snow geese to go out.

Seeing this scene, Xueyan couldn't help but pursed her lips into a smile, bowed her body, and walked out lightly, leaving only Mu Xu and his wife in the room.After about half an hour like this, Daiyu opened her hazy eyes and asked in a daze, "Xueyan, what time is it?"

"It's only past time, you can sleep for a while."

When Daiyu heard that it was Mu Xu's voice, she woke up immediately, sat up quickly, and saw that it was indeed Mu Xu who was fanning herself, she couldn't help but blamed, "When did you come back from the palace? You didn't say you were going to rest, but you actually fanned me, so you're not afraid of being laughed at by others?"

Mu Xu got up and poured a cup of tea, and while serving it to Daiyu, he said, "I'm fanning my wife, so why is it someone else's turn to make irresponsible remarks?"

Although Daiyu said reproachful words, she felt like eating honey in her heart. After she took a sip from the teacup with a smile, she placed the teacup on the table beside the couch, pulled Mu Xu to sit beside her, and touched the teacup. After patting his forehead and finding no sweat stains on it, he said, "Have you ever eaten at noon?"

"Don't worry, I used it with His Majesty in the palace." Mu Xu lay down on the couch, remembering the pile of boxes he saw passing by the main hall when he returned to Zhaohui Courtyard, and asked casually, "The ones in the main hall What are things for?"

Daiyu replied, "I was just about to tell you. Not long after you went to the palace today, the Xue family brought Bao Qin's dowry over. Since you are not at the house, I asked Steward Wu to come and receive the Xue family. Two brothers." After saying this, Daiyu saw that Mu Xu didn't reply for a long time, so she looked down, but saw him staring blankly at the roof, thinking he was thinking about Baoqin, Daiyu couldn't help but jealous, "Hmph, Are you a little impatient?"

Hearing this, Mu Xu sat up funny, and joked to Daiyu, "Where are you going? I was thinking that I would never take concubines again, lest my Yu'er be jealous."

Daiyu patted Mu Xu's chest in embarrassment when she heard the words, and said with a blushing face, "Who is jealous, don't be sentimental! Besides, you speak nicely now, you may not know what will happen in the future."

Not wanting to, Mu Xu said seriously, "After talking with my mother before, I thought about it carefully. Now I have four wives and concubines, and Baoqin is the fifth. I should be content, so I am not joking with you. "

Daiyu saw that he was so serious, she was overjoyed, but then hesitated and said, "I originally wanted to wait for Baoqin to come in, and let Zijuan open her face and let her serve you, but now what happens?" Is good?"

"What's so embarrassing about this, why don't you find a close-eyed servant in the mansion to ration her, what do you think of Yang An?"

After thinking for a while, Daiyu talked about the arrangements for the two maids, "Although Zijuan and Xueyan are called masters and servants with me, they love sisters, so I don't want them to be servants anymore. Xueyan has a pure personality Naive, I haven’t figured out how to place her. But Zijuan is not the case. She is alert and calm. The way is to let you accept her, so that she can continue to stay by my side and help me in the future."

Mu Xu wondered, "Aren't all of you women unwilling to pay for your husbands, why do you do the opposite?"

Daiyu smiled wryly and said, "I'm not a three-year-old child. How can I still believe in the nonsense about a couple in that life in the book. It would be fine if we were ordinary people, but we are not. When my mother was alive, she and my father You are so loving, don’t you still accept the third concubine for your father? Not to mention you, our family has been passed down for several generations, and although my grandmother and mother didn’t say it, they definitely hope that you will have many children and grandchildren.”

Mu Xu believed in Daiyu's words. Many people who watched the Red Chamber in the previous life had the illusion that Daiyu would not be able to tolerate her husband. Their reason was that the relationship between Daiyu and Baochai Infighting.In fact, that is all wrong. In the original book, Daiyu and Baochai are fighting for the position of Jia Baoyu’s wife. The two of them don’t care about the concubine at all. Yes, but how did she do it?She just said a few words of ambiguity, mocking Xiren as a regular wife, but she was not angry with Jia Baoyu afterwards.

It can be seen from this that Daiyu may be a bit of a young and hypocritical woman, but she still abides by the customs of the current society in her bones, and she is an extremely orthodox lady.

Closer to home, Daiyu asked Mu Xu for his opinion after finishing talking about the resettlement method for Zijuan and Mu Xu. Yan was assigned to him, and as for the identity issue, that's easy to handle, I'll return Yang An's deed to him later, and then arrange an official status for him."

Daiyu thought about it for a while, and felt that this method was good, and then she could give Xueyan a house nearby, and it would be more convenient for her to meet in the future.

"The matter of Xueyan is settled, what about Zijuan? Are you willing to accept her?"

As a man, Mu Xu did not refuse, anyway, he would not be at a disadvantage, but just now he said that he would no longer take concubines, if he said yes now, wouldn't it be a slap in the face for himself?So he said ambiguously, "Ask what Zicuckoo means first, and let's talk about other things."
