The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool

Mo Ying also smiled and said, "Yes, it's rare for Second Brother to come home, so we should spend some time together. I don't know when I will see him next time."

Su Xin, the maidservant of the old concubine, said, "Concubine, please put on your jewelry. The prince will definitely come to you to pay New Year's greetings in a while."

After that, Su Xin helped the old concubine to sit down in front of the dressing table. Mo Ying went over and said sweetly, "I'll choose for the old grandmother. Hmm... How about we wear this set of emerald hairpins today?"

"Okay, just listen to my little Ying'er."

Mo Ying carefully put the jewelry on the old concubine and complimented her while looking into the bronze mirror: "Grandma is so beautiful. When you were young, you must have been the most beautiful woman in the palace."

The old concubine was very pleased with Mo Ying's flattery, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were gathered together when she smiled, "You clever little ghost, you only know how to make me happy."

Kang took the opportunity to say, "Ying'er, I'm not trying to make you happy. Grandma has indeed taken good care of herself and looks no more than 40 years old. If I can be as young as grandma when I reach her age, it would be a blessing that I have cultivated for eight lifetimes."

Everyone loves to hear compliments, which made the old concubine tremble and laugh, "You, follow Ying'er to make me, an old woman, happy."

The old concubine was in a good mood after being coaxed by the two. She chatted for a while, but Mo Jinghong never came to wish her a happy new year. The old concubine fell silent, and her face was not looking good.

Kang said to herself, "Although our palace is large, Jinghong should be able to get there by foot."

Mo Ying said, "I'm going to go out and meet my second brother. I hope he gets lost after not coming for a long time."

Mo Ying wished that the whole family would dislike Mo Jinghong. If Mo Jinghong had not taken the position of Crown Prince, the position would have belonged to her biological brother Mo Jingqi.

Mo Jingqi was born to the third princess, and he is 20 years old this year. He is a biological brother of Mo Ying. If it weren't for Mo Jinghong's military achievements and becoming a favorite of His Majesty, he would have regained the position of the crown prince. The King of Qin originally intended to make Mo Jingqi the crown prince and inherit the title of king in the future.

When the old concubine heard that Mo Ying was going out to greet him, she said, "Don't go. It's windy outside. Qiu Chan, go see where the prince is and bring him over."

About half an incense stick of time had passed before Qiu Chan came back and bowed to the old concubine, "Concubine, the prince has gone to the ancestral hall and is burning incense for the late princess..."

After Qiu Chan finished speaking, he turned towards the old concubine. Sure enough, the old concubine's face suddenly turned gloomy.

Kang said in disbelief, "What was Jinghong thinking? Why did he go to the ancestral hall first? He should have come to pay respect to his grandmother first."

Mo Ying also said, "Second brother is really confused. But, grandma, please don't be angry. The dead are the first. Second brother is going to pay his respects to our late mother..."

The old concubine was already full of anger, "This brat, I think he should just change his surname to He, he doesn't care about this family at all, and he doesn't take me, his grandmother, seriously!"

"Grandma, please don't get angry. You might get sick from anger." Mo Ying quickly came over and comforted him. This comparison made Mo Jinghong look unfilial and rude.

"Humph, he didn't come, so he wanted me, an old woman, to go and pay my respects to him. He is a general now, and he is very arrogant."

Kang advised, "After Jinghong finishes the worship, he will come to pay his respects to the old grandmother. It's rare for him to take the time to come back, and it's the New Year. It's not easy for the family to be reunited. Don't be angry with him."

The old concubine had a gloomy face. She got angry when she thought that Mo Jinghong didn't come back usually, but went to see his damn mother first when he came back. "You don't have to persuade him, Su Xin. When he comes later, just say I'm resting and I won't see anyone."

Mo Ying and Kang looked at each other, and a barely perceptible smile flashed in their eyes.

Mo Jinghong strode into the courtyard with Ah Falcon. The maids of Jingxin Garden came out and knelt to greet them, "Greetings, my Lord."

Mo Jinghong responded calmly, his expression showing no emotion. "Where's the concubine?" His voice was cold, without a trace of warmth.

The maids were silent as a mouse, not daring to look up at him. When words came to their lips they were too nervous to speak.

It was Qiu Chan, the first-class maidservant beside the concubine, who replied, "The concubine is a little tired and has returned to her room to rest."

Mo Jinghong knew that his grandmother blamed him for not coming to her to pay New Year's greetings first, and was making a fuss. Without waiting for the maid to say anything, he walked into the house. Ah Falcon was a man from outside, so it was not appropriate for him to follow him in, so he stood in the yard. The maids on the ground stood up and followed him in. "Sir, the Concubine Dowager is resting. Please allow me to go and report first."

As soon as he entered the room, a scent of sandalwood mixed with lilies hit him in the face. Passing by a screen embroidered with chrysanthemums, Mo Jinghong saw his sister-in-law Kang, his niece Yan Jie'er, and his sister Mo Ying were also there, and he understood a little bit.

"Oh, Jinghong is back. He didn't come back for the New Year's Eve dinner this year. Grandma and father are still talking about you." After Kang said that, she pushed Yan Jie'er and said, "Call someone, kid, why don't you call someone?"

Yan Jie'er has been introverted and quiet since she was a child. She recognized Mo Jinghong and just hid behind Kang and secretly looked at Mo Jinghong.

Mo Ying smiled and said, "Second brother may have forgotten all of us."

Mo Jinghong responded calmly, stopped talking to them, and walked towards the door of the old concubine's bedroom.

Su Xin, the personal maid, hurried in to report: "My Lady Consort, the prince is here to wish you a happy new year."

The old concubine's voice came from inside the room, as if she had just gotten up from the bed, "The prince is here. Why did the prince suddenly come to see an old woman like me?"

Mo Jinghong stood at the door of the bedroom, lifted his robe, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and saluted, "Grandson Mo Jinghong greets grandma."

The old concubine in the room heard Mo Jinghong's voice so close, and her dissatisfaction with him disappeared by more than half. Putting aside his mother, this child has been a chubby boy since he was a child, and he is indeed lovable.

"Is it really Hong'er who came back?" The old concubine pretended to ask.

Su Xin said, "It's really the prince. Your grandson is here to see you."

"Help me out."

Two maids came in and helped the old concubine to stand up and opened the curtain. The old concubine saw Mo Jinghong kneeling on one knee on the ground, and the unhappiness in her heart disappeared immediately.

Her grandson had been naughty since he was young, and he was the most worrying thing for her. However, seeing that he had grown from a reckless boy into a mature man with broad shoulders and a strong back, he had the demeanor of a great general. Perhaps the future prosperity of the palace would depend on him. Thinking of this, the old concubine looked at Mo Jinghong with joy again.
