Chapter 759: Safflower in the soup
"Thank you, Hui'er, thank you aunt."
Since she wanted to be a good person, Murong Hui naturally politely kept it, but she still couldn't like her.
She smiled softly but did not look at her, but continued to stare at Lin Yingxue and talked about many customs related to her motherland and pregnant women.
Lin Yingxue listened calmly, not seeming to care what she said. It was not until the nanny brought a group of noble girls into the door that she waved her hand to Ruo.
"Hui'er, your uncle-in-law asked you to choose for yourself, you must choose two."
Even if Murong Hui asked him to choose, Lin Yingxue would still be able to control the scope of screening the reading.
Murong Hui glanced around for a moment and saw Tang Moxue staring at her carefully.
She couldn't help but be surprised. She thought the Tang family would not send someone here, but now looking at the family's interests, it is better than sisterly relationships.
What's more, Murong Jun chose the Tang family as his companion for Murong An, and obviously wanted to praise the Tang family. After weighing the pros and cons, she chose Tang Moxue and Chen Jing, the eldest daughter of Anyang.
Chen Jing and Murong Kai's biological mother were also from Anyang Bo Mansion. Because of Murong Kai's current identity, Anyang Bo Mansion was very close to him.
Sang Ning mentioned Chen Jing more than once, so Murong Hui chose her.
Lin Yingxue was quite satisfied. Seeing that the person had been selected, she asked the two to go to Ningcui Palace to pack up their things and accompany Murong Hui to study in the study tomorrow.
Seeing that the time was almost over, Murong Hui sat for a while and left.
"How come the Rouhan Princess was not concerned about these things in the past. Now she seems to be very concerned about things related to pregnant women."
Qingyue didn't whisper until she walked out of Fengyi Palace.
"It's probably because my aunt is pregnant. She wants to know more and use it to please her aunt and uncle-in-law."
Murong Hui was absent-minded. She had too many things to face now, so she naturally had no time to think about these things again.
Qingyue nodded, but didn't think much about it, and instead talked to Murong Hui about the interesting things that happened in the palace recently.
The next morning, Murong Hui had just had breakfast when she saw Tang Moxue and Shen Jing coming together, waiting for Murong Hui to go to the study together.
"Don't your Highness want to ask?"
Tang Moxue asked with a tense face as soon as she stood up.
"What are you asking?"
Murong Hui took a sip of tea and said in confusion.
"I ask if my daughter is satisfied with Miss Chen, will she think of some tricks to get her away in private?"
Tang Moxue clenched her fists and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Chen Jing didn't say anything. She knew why Tan Yanran, who had always been famous, was kicked out of the palace.
"Don't ask, I don't think you are that stupid. I have always chosen a companion to read, unless I don't want to stay, otherwise the Queen will ask for my opinion and decide to stay and leave for the companion to read. I hope you understand this principle."
He knew the reason why Tang Moxue asked this question in his heart, so Murong Hui simply said it straightforwardly.
Tang Moxue pursed her lips and said nothing, thinking in her heart was indeed a different meaning.
She knew that this princess was an idea and did not like the people around her to make their own decisions.
"My daughter understands."
After a moment of silence, Tang Moxue bowed respectfully.
"I heard a lot of your cousin's reputation, but now I think you are better than her."
Seeing that she was tactful, Murong Hui breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly felt in her heart that it was really not easy to please the emperor and the empress.
Tang Moxue smiled awkwardly, knowing that this time her cousin shot herself in the foot.
The three of them left the East Side Hall and walked towards the study room. Along the way, Murong Hui taught them the course arrangement of the study room and the style of each teacher's lecture.
The content of the afternoon elective courses will be explained clearly in detail.
She felt in her heart that since she accepted these two, she had to continue getting along with each other. Her tone was cold, so it would be better to try to accept it.
Tang Moxue followed silently and listened. In fact, her mother had already said that she had found someone before entering the palace.
But what Murong Hui said was more detailed, but she didn't hide her personal feelings at all, which made her even more regretful for her cousin Tan Yanran.
There are not many princesses who are so easy to serve since the past dynasty. Why did she have to study with a companion? Now she is in such a miserable result.
"Why did Your Highness choose me?"
Seeing that she was about to go to the study room, Tang Moxue couldn't help asking for the doubts that had been lingering in her heart for a long time. She thought Murong Hui hated Tan Yanran very much and would take her anger out of it.
"Because your brother is An'er's companion, it is obvious that His Majesty wants to take good care of your family, so I chose you."
Murong Hui did not hide it. After saying that, she got out of the sedan chair and walked straight to the study.
Tang Moxue breathed a sigh of relief and followed Shen Jing into the study room. She realized that the Highness had no idea of making things difficult for her.
It was only after three days that Murong Hui received the news that Gao Ziyue and Chu Huaining had an engagement. She happily took her two companions to study and went to Gao Ziyue’s house for a drink.
Gao Ziyue's complexion was much better than when she left the palace. She looked extremely bright and charming in this pink double-breasted white butterfly brocade skirt.
"Your Highness, thank you for your help, otherwise my father would not agree."
Gao Ziyue ignored Shen Jing and Tang Moxue at all, and pulled Murong Hui to walk forward.
Shen Jing followed behind calmly, Tang Moxue frowned slightly, but when she thought of Gao Ziyue and Tan Yanran's holiday, she didn't say anything.
"Your Highness, thank you for coming."
As soon as she entered the main hall, Gao Ziyue's mother came out. She was wearing a rusty red skirt and was extremely thin.
I think I am very worried about Gao Ziyue’s affairs these days.
Now that Chu Huaining has solved her urgent needs, she naturally has to thank Murong Hui, the matchmaker.
"Ms. Gao, you are polite. This matter was proposed by Chu Huaining, not the result of my matchmaking. It can only be said that they are very destined to do so."
Murong Hui smiled, took the tea brought by Mrs. Gao, and said softly.
Mrs. Gao sat aside and said politely: "I'm not afraid of your highness' jokes. My master wants to send Yue'er back to his hometown to get married, and I'm almost convinced."
"Mom, stop talking about this. Your Highness is rarely out of the palace. You should hurry up and prepare the food. I am afraid I won't have the chance to have dinner with Your Highness in the future."
Gao Ziyue felt a little regretful and could no longer stay with Murong Hui.
Seeing this, Mrs. Gao hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen to urge her, leaving only Gao Ziyue to accompany them.
"Let me introduce you to you. These two are Tang Moxue and Shen Jing, my new companion."
Murong Hui patted Gao Ziyue on the shoulder and said softly.
"I recognize both of them, both of them are ladies from noble families."
Gao Ziyue looked cold, glanced at her and then stopped saying a word.
"Hello Miss Gao, my cousin's wife has no time to come this time, so she asked me to bring the gifts together."
After Shen Jing finished speaking, she asked the maid to hand the gift to Gao Ziyue. Gao Ziyue was stunned at first, and then she saw that the gift list was written with Sang Ning's name, and then realized why Murong Hui chose Shen Jing as her companion to read.
"Thank you Princess Huaqing for me."
Gao Ziyue smiled and took the gift, and a maid asked them to come over for dinner.
The four of them hurried to the small flower hall and saw that the dishes were all set on the table, so they came over.
After the maid poured fruit wine for the four of them, she quietly stepped aside and waited for instructions, which seemed very regular.
Tang Moxue was visiting a family like the Imperial Merchants for the first time, and it was the first time he saw such rules. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised, not feeling that Gao Ziyue was as uneducated as her cousin said.
A few girls of the same age naturally have many topics to talk about, and they get along well soon.
After dinner, the couple listened to the show together. Seeing that it was getting late, Murong Hui said goodbye to Gao Ziyue and returned to the palace with her two companions.
"I'll give my aunt a lucky bag tomorrow morning."
After returning to the Eastern Palace, Murong Hui continued to embroider the lucky bag. After half an hour, her eyes were blurred, she finally embroidered the lucky bag.
Madam Huang took the lucky bag and looked carefully. The stitches of the lucky bag were fine and not as well as those of the embroidered lady in the palace.
"Your Highness's skills are really good. I can't even embroider this well at your age."
Qingxue looked admiring, and there was naturally a flattery here, but Murong Hui was quite happy to hear it.
After eating some snacks, Murong Hui went to bed when she saw that the time was almost the same, without knowing that danger was coming.
The next morning, the imperial kitchen sent an extra soup to the East Pandan Palace. When Murong Hui looked at it, she found that the soup was very nourishing, and she smiled and said, "It's better to send this soup to my aunt, it's more suitable for her to drink."
Madam Huang also nodded and agreed. It was indeed too nourishing for Murong Hui to drink Cordyceps soup, but the Empress is more suitable.
Therefore, Murong Hui hurriedly used breakfast and rushed to Fengyi Palace with soup and lucky bags.
"Auntie, have you available breakfast?"
Murong Hui asked with a smile while holding the lucky bag.
"Not yet, I'm a little lazy these days, and I'm getting up a little late."
Lin Yingxue smiled and her eyes fell on the lucky bag in Murong Hui's hand.
Murong Hui asked someone to put the soup on the table and handed over the lucky bag himself: "Auntie, Hui'er embroidered it by herself at this time. I wish you and the children in your belly can be safe."
"Hui'er is intent."
Lin Yingxue ordered people to tie the lucky bag to the head of the bed. When they saw someone posing for breakfast, they walked to the table and asked someone to start cooking.
Murong Hui gave Lin Yingxue a bowl of soup and handed it to Lin Yingxue.
Lin Yingxue took the soup and couldn't help but feel a little bit of a meal. Before she could speak, she saw the nanny beside her exclaimed: "Empress, don't drink it quickly, there are red flowers in this soup!"
As the nanny said, she excitedly snatched the soup over, and gently scooped up a spoonful of red petals.
Seeing this, Murong Hui couldn't help but take a breath and said nervously: "Auntie, Hui'er has never harmed you! This soup was delivered from the imperial kitchen. Hui'er didn't move at all, so she brought it to you!"
"Go back to the Queen, Princess Linghui's breakfast this morning was a pot of stewed veal with sour bamboo shoots, a bowl of green rice, a plate of shredded radish, a plate of crushed seaweed, a plate of sprouted leeks and fried deer dried cherry, a cup of orchid fragrant drink, and there was no Cordyceps soup."
After hearing this, the head of the imperial kitchen was in the side, he saw Lin Yingxue looking at him and quickly responded.
"These dishes were collected by the old slave in person from the imperial kitchen. I didn't meet anyone on the way. I did have this Cordyceps soup today!"
