Chapter 539： apprehension

  Li Jinghua looked tired and asked, "Are we going back to Jingzhao Mansion?"

"No, the Jingzhao Mansion is too far away for the child to be bumpy." Mu Yangling adjusted Little Bear's posture to make him feel better.

Little Bear Nest hummed twice in his mother's arms, and then lay down in her arms slightly with his eyes closed, and Xiaobao also lay on the side tiredly with his eyes closed.

They have been on the road for three consecutive days. Except for the novelty at the beginning, the children have not spoken much these two days. Fortunately, they are also good. Although they are uncomfortable, most of them only hum a few words and rarely cry.

Seeing that Xiaobao's face was a little blue, Li Jinghua was a little irritable, and he didn't know how many days it would take to travel like this.

As soon as the thought arose, the cheerful voice of the guard leader Bai Liluo came from outside, "Grandma, Grandma No. 4, we have arrived at the place."

Mu Yangling and Li Jinghua lifted the curtains to see, not far from the entrance of a small village, Mu Yangling was shocked and smiled, "Let's go in."

"Yes."

After the carriage entered the village, it turned and headed towards a mountain. There was a large yard of blue bricks and gray tiles on the hillside. Baili went to knock on the door. The steward inside opened the door and glanced at the token in Baili's hand. Just hurriedly opened the door and they came in.

Mu Yangling and Li Jinghua got off the car with their child in the yard.

The yard has three entrances and three exits. It is spacious, bright and clean, which makes people feel comfortable.

Mu Yangling looked back at the steward and asked, "Are you Chen Ming?"

Chen Ming hurriedly bent over and said, "Yes, the little one is really Chen Ming."

Mu Yangling nodded slightly, "Go and ask your daughter-in-law to prepare some fresh vegetables, boil porridge and bring it here, the young masters are hungry."

Chen Ming took a careful look at the child in her arms, bowed his head in response, and stepped back respectfully.

Baili was busy leading them to the backyard.

Mu Yangling put Little Bear and Little Treasure together and said to Li Chun, "Take someone out, my grandma and I have something to say."

Li Jinghua sat on the kang with a sullen face.

Mu Yangling touched Xiaobao's head, raised his head and said, "Sister-in-law, this yard was arranged more than a year ago, and it was passed by Mr. Liu's hand. Except me, no one knew that I would use this yard. Now, neither Big Brother nor Haoran know we are here."

Li Jinghua's expression changed slightly and asked, "What are you doing? Are you trying to hide from the emperor, afraid that he will threaten the general with us? But now that we have avoided, how will we appear in the future?"

Mu Yangling looked up at Li Jinghua seriously, and said, "Sister-in-law, what the eldest brother has to do is destined that we cannot stay in Lin'an City."

Li Jinghua's complexion changed dramatically, and the guesses that had been in it for many days finally came true. She covered her chest, her eyes were wet, and she couldn't help but ask: "You guys have discussed it, just hide it from me? Does Qi Xiuyuan still think I'm his wife? ?"

Mu Yangling hurriedly explained: "sister-in-law misunderstood, eldest brother is going to tell you, but this is a major matter of beheading, eldest brother is more cautious, after you gave birth to Xiaobao, he always wanted to tell you personally, but because of The saint supervises our letters, and things have been delayed. I received a secret letter some time ago, and the eldest brother hinted that I would tell you." Mu Yangling emphasized: "The eldest brother wants to tell you in person, after all It's a big deal."

Li Jinghua sneered, "Of course this is a big deal. Since you know it's a big deal, why did you marry me in the first place?"

Mu Yangling was a little anxious, "Sister-in-law, it's after the Fuping incident that my eldest brother has this idea, and not many people know about it."

Li Jinghua immediately had an association in his heart. That time her husband pretended to be seriously ill, and he needed Mu Yangling to come in to celebrate. It turned out that it was not just for the purpose of rejecting the marriage arranged by the emperor for Qi Haoran.

Li Jinghua looked at Mu Yangling, who looked anxious, slightly restrained his anger, and asked, "Then when did you know?"

Mu Yangling's face was embarrassed, "I knew it when I came back from Fuping."

Li Jinghua lowered her eyes, maybe the Qi brothers trusted Mu Yangling so much not only because she and Qi Haoran grew up as childhood sweethearts, but also because she knew what she should not know by fate, so Qi Xiuyuan was so anxious to marry Qi Haoran she?

Li Jinghua is a smart person. The biggest characteristic of smart people is that they like to think about simple things complicated. When she thought about it like this, she felt less resentment towards Mu Yangling and sighed, "Then who else knows about this?"

"Cousin Zijin and Big Brother Rong know it, and so does Master Yuanhui," Mu Yangling thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I shouldn't know about the rest."

Li Jinghua asked curiously, "Don't your father know?"

Mu Yangling nodded, "Big brother said that the time is not ripe, so I won't tell him."

Li Jinghua looked at her speechless and said, "You trust the general. If he doesn't say anything, you never thought about telling your father in private?"

Mu Yangling asked blankly: "Big brother has always been very good to us, of course I trust him, and the big brother didn't immediately take matters into account. Telling my father is also worrying him in vain."

Li Jinghua looked at the blankness in Mu Yangling's eyes, and felt a little embarrassed. Speaking of which, she was the closest to Qi Xiuyuan. If Qi Xiuyuan succeeded, she would be the one who would benefit the most. The Mu family seems to have been tricked by her husband.

Li Jinghua hurriedly changed the subject and asked, "Why are we leaving suddenly this time? Yes, is the time up?"

Mu Yangling shook his head, "Cousin Zijin said that there is something unusual outside the city, and it's too dangerous for us to stay there. Anyway, we're going to leave anyway, so we might as well catch up with this Qiaozong."

Li Jinghua looked at Mu Yangling who was full of confidence, and sighed in her heart, this sister-in-law is smart and capable in some things, but a little simple in some things.

As soon as the thought fell, Mu Yangling said with some flattery: "Sister-in-law, the village we live in is far away from the town, and it is not close to the main road and barriers. If you count up to three hundred years, there will be many natural disasters, but soldiers The disaster is the least, so it is safe for us to live here, the house only bought two servants, and there are only fourteen girls and wives we brought in total, you can arrange it according to your discretion."

Li Jinghua knew that she didn't like to take care of these trivial matters, so she smiled and said, "You are pushing all these things to me now, what will you do in the future? You have also learned from me as a housekeeper for several months, and you seemed to be well-organized before, why is it? Do you like to run to Zhuangzi?"

Li Jinghua persuaded her in a low voice, "Family like us, there is no shortage of food and clothing, as long as the hostess takes care of the housework and raises the children, there is really no need to go to the fields..."

Mu Yangling saw that the anger between her brows had disappeared, and she knew that the crisis was over, so she said with a smile: "Isn't this a sister-in-law? We specialize in surgery."

Li Jinghua couldn't help laughing and laughing, "What kind of art is this specializing in?"

Having said that, Li Jinghua proceeded to arrange the servants in the house. In the evening, they ate a hot meal, took a hot bath, and washed the two children in a wooden tub. The fatigue of the past few days has been relieved a lot.

Mu Yangling threw the child to Li Jinghua and ran to the front to meet Baili.

"Is there any news over there in the capital?" They were busy rushing and hiding their tracks along the way, and they didn't have time to inquire about things in the capital. After they settled down today, they naturally wanted to ask.

Baili lowered his head and said: "The second prince and Qin Xiang forced the palace, the emperor was burned to death in Kunning Palace, the first prince, the third prince and the fourth prince were all killed in the forced palace, and the other little princes were either missing or imprisoned. , and now Lin'an City is in chaos."
