    Mu Xiangqing came back in the afternoon.

    Huaxi took Brother Lin back to the middle courtyard, and took the opportunity to greet Mu Xiangqing and ask about Yunyi's situation.

    "How are you, fourth sister?"

    Mu Xiangqing's eyes and brows were full of joy, "The imperial doctor in front of me was not sure, so he didn't say anything. The imperial doctor just finalized the decision yesterday and said it has been three months. He looks in good spirits and plump. It can be seen that the prince is waiting for him.  She¡¯s nice.¡±

    ¡°I must have just gotten pregnant with Yun Yi when I met her last time at the Qinghu Poetry Festival, so I didn¡¯t dare to confirm for sure.  This time, I got accurate information before notifying all the governments.

    Hua Xi responded: "That's good."

    Mu Xiangqing smiled again and said: "Princess Luodong is very happy. Her family has not had a baby for three years. When she saw me today, she pulled me to praise Yun Yi for her good fortune. She got pregnant less than a year after entering the house."  The Queen Mother and the Empress also sent people to give supplements today."

    Huaxi had heard gossip from the Zong sisters, Yun Lin, and Yun Ning, and knew that Chen Hongfei had only one daughter in his family, but she was not the daughter of the imperial concubine, and she was frail and sickly.  Nowadays, Yunyi's position is second only to the crown prince's concubine, so her birth naturally attracts more attention than the concubine's child before her.  Undoubtedly, it is also a good thing for the Mu family and the Cheng family who are related by marriage to the Luodong Palace.

    "Sister Yunyi and the prince have a good relationship, and having another child is the icing on the cake."

    Huaxi¡¯s voice was rarely brisk, and it could be heard that she was happy for Yunyi.

    Mu Xiangqing also echoed: "Well, yes! This kid Yunyi is so lucky." Then he remembered that Huaxi's life was not going well, so he smiled and joked: "You will have a haircut next year, and my aunt will have to help you find it."  Touch a good family."

    A good family?  She hid out just because she was afraid that the Mu family would choose a "good family" for her.

    Huaxi said: "Aunt, Huaxi is still young and doesn't want to get married."

    Mu Xiangqing said seriously with a straight face: "Hey, silly girl, how can a girl's family not get married? Don't worry about this with me."

    "My aunt is good for Huaxi, and Huaxi knows it in her heart. It's just that I don't want to get married so early"

    "Why?"

    Seeing Mu Xiangqing frowning slightly, Huaxi was afraid that she would misunderstand and explained, "It's not because of the third brother. Huaxi only has a brother-sister relationship with him, and there is no love between men and women. Huaxi's background is not good, and her appearance is different from others. She is no better than other sisters.  I can find a well-matched family. I can tell my aunt sincerely that Huaxi doesn¡¯t want to be a child, and she doesn¡¯t want to live a life where wives and concubines compete for favor. You can make money with both hands, so Huaxi doesn¡¯t care much. Huaxi is envious.  What I want is a couple like my aunt and the Marquis, so I just want to find a loving and righteous man who can take care of me in the future, even if he comes from a poor family, as long as he can live a down-to-earth life."

    Mu Xiangqing didn¡¯t expect that Huaxi had a plan in mind.  Does she envy herself?  Being a couple for life is easier said than done.  Isn't it because of the Marquis's promise that she was able to secure her position as the mistress of the house? And because she gave birth to Brother Xuan, the old Marquis agreed to the Marquis's request not to take any more concubines.  All of this was given by her sister. She has always been grateful. She has taken care of her husband and raised her children, and she has always been faithful to her duties. She has never expected to replace her sister in the heart of the Marquis.

    Mu Xiangqing looked at her face, where the shadow of her older sister could be vaguely seen. There was a charm in the purity, like a hibiscus that was about to reveal its beauty. The moment you saw it's shy and charming bud, you could imagine the beauty.  How stunning it must be when in full bloom.

    Hua Xi¡¯s wish may not come true.  The Mu family would not let her get married casually.

    Mu Xiangqing sighed, "Although you don't admire Ronghua, you can't resist external interference."

    Hua Xi's eyes dimmed, and then he said firmly: "I know. But I still want to try. No matter what the result is, I will never be like my mother, who abandoned herself after living in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and finally lost her soul with sorrow and regret.  . Even if I am forced to be someone¡¯s concubine, I will not accept my fate easily!¡±

    Since she left the Mu family with the help of Mu Xiangqing, Huaxi will never go back.  She believed that there would be a way to reach the mountain. Even if the Mu family threatened her to marry someone she didn't like, she would still find a way to leave.

    Mu Xiangqing looked at the determination in Huaxi's steamy eyes, and patted her hand lovingly, "Don't worry! As long as your aunt is here, they can't force you. Your mother is gone, and you still have your aunt won't  Let you get married without knowing it. My aunt will definitely help you!"

    Huaxi calmed down and nodded, "Well, if my aunt treats Huaxi well, Huaxi will always remember it in her heart"

    Mu Xiangqing smiled and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Stop crying, go back and rest."

    Huaxi held back her tears, stood up and said goodbye.

    After passing through the hall, Huaxi was about to enter the west door when he met Cheng Chong walking in.?.

    Hua Xi is blessed with good health, "Greetings to the Marquis."

    Cheng Chong was thinking about something when he suddenly heard someone saying hello. He looked up and said, "It's Huaxi. Are you going to see your aunt?"

    "Well, I just sent Brother Lin over to chat with my aunt for a while. Huaxi will go back to the West Courtyard now."

    Cheng Chong nodded and was about to leave. Suddenly he remembered something and called out to Huaxi who turned to leave, "Huaxi, wait a minute."

    Hua Xi turned around and asked doubtfully: "Master Hou, is there anything else?"

    Cheng Chong hesitated for a moment, then thought about it before asking: "I heard from Prince Cheng that you are proficient in making incense."

    Huaxi was slightly stunned, "Prince Cheng was ridiculous. Huaxi only knew a little bit about it, and was far from being a master." It stands to reason that Mu Xiangqing had already told Cheng Chong that he would make incense, so why did he mention Prince Cheng now?  ?  Why did Yin Chengzong mention his affairs to him?

    Cheng Chong nodded, "It's nothing, let's go."

    "Huaxi, please leave!" Huaxi turned around and walked out of the west door without asking any more questions.

    Cheng Chong returned to the main room. Mu Xiangqing had just changed into his regular clothes and came out of the back room. Seeing Cheng Chong come in, he hurriedly greeted him, "Master Marquis, don't you need to go to the post house today?"

    Cheng Chong looked tired, pressed his forehead, and responded casually: "I drank a few too many drinks at the banquet in the palace, so I won't go today."

    "Master Marquis, would you like to change your clothes first?"

    "Yes." Cheng Chong entered the cubicle, and the maid cleaned his face and changed his clothes.

    When he came out again, Mu Xiangqing had already placed tea bowls on the Kang table, "You must be tired, Lord Marquis. Let me rub your shoulders."

    Cheng Chong didn't say anything. He sat by the kang and leaned half on the soft pillow. Mu Xiangqing sat inside and rubbed his shoulders.

    Cheng Chong frowned slightly and said: "Mokri from the Xiyue Mission said at the banquet today that Dahua Incense has a history of hundreds of years, and he has admired Dahua's incense for a long time, and proposed a competition for incense The emperor handed over this matter to  I gave it to Prince Cheng." He also didn't understand why Xiyue was the one who proposed the peace this time, so he was delaying it with excuses. He didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd.

    Mu Xiangqing didn¡¯t respond, and moved her thin white fingers on her arm, squeezing with neither light nor heavy force.

    Cheng Chong closed his eyes comfortably and fell asleep, "At the banquet, Prince Cheng said privately that he wanted to borrow someone from me."

    Mu Xiangqing¡¯s hand paused, ¡°Is it Huaxi?¡±

    Cheng Chong opened his eyes, nodded, and sighed: "Yes. I thought that Huaxi had not left the cabinet yet, so it was not appropriate to be too public, so I refused. Later, he went to the emperor to ask for help, and the emperor agreed. I can't shirk it anymore.  In the past, I had no choice but to agree. When I entered the house, I met Hua Xi at the west door. Before I could say anything, you go back and talk to her. This is a serious matter, so let her have some snacks."

    Mu Xiangqing knew that Cheng Chong didn¡¯t want to have too much contact with the royal family, and Huaxi was his sister¡¯s child, so he took special care of her and didn¡¯t want her to get involved in the right and wrong.  In the matter of fighting for incense, everyone will be happy if they win; but if they lose, the emperor will be angry and will not attack Prince Cheng, and Huaxi will definitely be implicated.

    Mu Xiangqing¡¯s hand stopped, ¡°Have you set a date yet?¡±

    "Prince Cheng said that the time for the incense to last ten and a half months would be on June 20, the day of the Lotus Festival." Cheng Chong sat up, "I wonder how sure that kid is?"

    Cheng Chong himself was also a little worried. He had heard from Mu Xiangqing about Huaxi's stay at Mu's house and sent someone to inquire about it. So as soon as Mu Xiangqing proposed to take Huaxi over, he agreed immediately.  I wanted to give the child a stable life, but within a few days, trouble came to my door again.  She didn't take good care of Xiang Wan at first, but now she must take good care of her child no matter what.

    "I don't know much about that. But Huaxi has been praised by the Concubine Xian, and Madam Yu has also asked her for advice on making incense. I guess there is something special about her." Mu Xiangqing agreed, but Mu Xiangqing was unsure.  Although I don't doubt Huaxi's incense-making skills, Xiyue is a country of spices, and this "fight" will involve national affairs. No matter how clever your incense-making techniques are, who can say for sure whether there will be any mistakes or mistakes in the process.  Deliberate people sabotage

    Cheng Chong and Mu Xiangqing have been married for many years, so he could naturally hear the uneasiness in her heart and comforted her: "You don't have to worry, it's still too early to leave the lotus meeting. The one who will come forward will definitely be Prince Cheng Besides, I'm here,  Nothing will happen to her." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
