In order to calm down those people who have been staring at Ningyuan Hou's house, Ning Yuanhou stayed in the house for several days, just like a big girl, staying at home without going out or stepping outside the door.
They waited until the day when Maidong and Qu Lian came back from Hangzhou.
Xu Qingmo asked someone to invite Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin hurried over and saw the child being held in Maidong's arms: "Junjun, my Junjun!"
Just when Mrs. Lin was about to take Junjun away from Ophiopogon japonicus, Mrs. Lin discovered that there was a particularly large burn scar on the child's face!
"What's going on? What's going on with his face!"
Qu Lian stepped forward: "When we found him, he had been scalded. He was burned with a soldering iron. Later, the wound was rotten, red and swollen, and the fever did not go away. He had to see several doctors before the fever went away. We are here Then I took him on the boat back to Beijing."
Mrs. Lin's tears fell down in a flash. The tears were dripping, but there was no sound of crying. Xu Qingmo thought that she was probably afraid of waking up the child who finally fell asleep!
"That woman is under guard. We interrogated her before she came here. She is a very courageous person. I just scared him a little and he said everything." Maidong turned back to look at Xu Qingmo, "The daughter said, They have the royal family on their back and are not afraid of the mere Ningyuan Houfu!"
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows slightly, and then laughed: "What a supporter of the royal family! I don't know how Mr. Zhu will feel when he thinks of that sentence, when the emperor breaks the law and the common people commit the same crime?"
Although Mrs. Lin is a concubine, she has read the Four Books and Five Classics and understands what it means to repay kindness. She knelt in front of Xu Qingmo with her child in her arms: "Miss Xu, you saved our mother and son. No matter what you do, go to Daoshan." , into the sea of fire..."
"You can't even protect yourself, how can you go up the sword and the sea of fire for others?" Xu Qingmo walked up to Mrs. Lin, then bent down to help her up, "What you have to do is for yourself and you. The children demand justice!”
Mrs. Lin looked at Xu Qingmo with red eyes: "What should I do?"
"Tell the truth!" Xu Qingmo looked at the child in Mrs. Lin's arms, "tell the truth about what happened to you from beginning to end, in front of the emperor!"
"Emperor?"
"Yes, the emperor!" Zhengyang suddenly walked in, "Mo Mo and I will take you to meet the emperor of the dynasty!"
"Can women enter the court?" Mrs. Lin's face was full of disbelief.
"Just beat the Dengwen drum!" Xu Qingmo smiled, "This is the princess, and my mother is Mrs. Gaoming. They can both play the Dengwen drum, so it won't be a problem!"
Zhengyang walked to Mrs. Lin: "You go and have a good rest. Tomorrow, we will file a lawsuit in court! Sue Suzhou Weaving for murdering his wife and colluding with water thieves in order to seek wealth and glory!"
Xu Qingmo glanced at Zhengyang, and then nodded: "That's right, you go and rest, we will enter the palace early tomorrow morning!"
Mrs. Lin nodded with red eyes, then returned to the yard with the child in her arms.
After Lady Lin left, Zhengyang said, "Brother Seventh Emperor and Marquis Yongchang are here!"
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows: "Come here as soon as you come. What does it have to do with me? My eldest brother happens to be at home, let them chat for a while."
Zhengyang looked at Xu Qingmo for a long time, and then said helplessly: "Your eldest brother has always been with you, but the emperor said that he had something to discuss with you, so I came to see you now."
"What's going on?" Xu Qingmo was a little surprised, "Isn't it enough that my elder brother is there? He has to discuss it with me. What can we come up with?"
"Oh, I asked you to go anyway, so just go quickly!" After Zhengyang said that, he pulled Xu Qingmo out, "This time, your uncle is also back. In order to avoid suspicion, he has not come to the house. Maybe it is If your uncle has anything to say, let my brother tell it to you."
Xu Qingmo was confused, but he could only follow Zhengyang forward.
In the main hall, several people were sitting upright. When Meng Hetong saw Xu Qingmo coming, he said: "Oh, this girl Xu is so arrogant now. She really came out after being called upon for a long time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Hetong received a peanut thrown by Xu Yanquan: "Speak carefully!"
"Hey! Xu Yanquan, I am the Marquis of Yongchang now!" Meng Hetong hurriedly avoided.
"Oh, you are the marshal of all the armies in the world, you have to speak to me properly!" Xu Yanquan didn't even look at Meng Hetong.
Xu Qingmo walked up to Xie Suyu without changing his expression, saluted, and then said, "Seventh Prince, do you want to see me for something?"
"Your grandmother knew that I was going back to the capital, so she came to me specifically and asked me to give you this letter. She told you to tell you that you must read this letter completely." Xie Suyu looked at Xu Qingmo, Said with a smile.
In fact, it wasn't too far to send a letter from Jiangnan to the capital, but my grandmother wanted the seventh prince to deliver it, probably because she didn't want her family to know.
Xu Qingmo was a little worried. After all, his grandmother was old and he didn't know what happened, so after receiving the letter, he opened it as soon as possible.
Xu Qingmo stood there and looked at the letter in his hand, and the people in the yard looked at her silently, until Xu Qingmo handed the letter in his hand to Xu Yanquan beside him: "Brother, take a look!"
Xu Yanquan received the letter in a fog. The letter was short, concise and clear, which meant that Madam He had begun to prepare the betrothal gift at home while her uncle was unable to escape during this period. She planned to go to Beijing to give Xu a gift after the Beginning of Summer. He was hired by his family and asked Xu Qingmo to marry him!
Xu Yanquan frowned, even a little annoyed: "Xu Qingmo, what did you cause this to do?"
"What does it have to do with me? I'm just a guest there. My aunt wants to give her son a dragon and a phoenix. If you don't talk about others, you'll talk about me here instead!" Xu Qingmo felt aggrieved, and then looked at Zhengyang, " Sister-in-law..."
Zhengyang quickly stepped forward and took Xu Qingmo's hand, then looked at Xu Yanquan: "Mo Mo has always been obedient and sensible, how could he cause trouble for no reason? What happened?"
Xu Yanquan looked at the people around him. They were not outsiders, and said, "My aunt is going to propose to Mo Mo for my cousin!"
"Isn't this a bad thing? Why are you so angry?" Zhengyang was a little confused.
"I have two uncles. The sons and daughters of the second uncle's family are quite promising. The eldest uncle only has one legitimate son. It's not a mess, but his future is slim. Moreover, he has four or five of them just through marriage. !" Xu Yanquan shook his head and sighed.
