After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince

Xiao Zhu asked, "Who else? Are you asking about the girl?"

Mu Kong's face was filled with shyness and he remained silent.

Xiao Zhu thought of what Helan Xuenuo had said, "Now that you mention it, I remember that the young lady has something to tell you."

Mu Kong's eyes lit up, no longer showing the dejected look he had just shown. He asked hurriedly, "What's the matter?"

"It's just that I happen to be going to Wenxiang Tower, so it's hard for me to finish explaining everything right now. I'll tell you later in the evening." Xiao Zhu was just about to tell him when she realized that what she had experienced yesterday was a bit complicated and couldn't be described in a few words.

Xiaozhu was about to leave, but Mu Kong grabbed her and his palm just happened to hold Xiaozhu's wrist.

When Xiao Zhu's wrist was grabbed, she felt a flash of surprise in her heart. She had never seen Mu Kong act so inappropriately.

Mu Kong immediately withdrew his hand, lowered his head and said, "Excuse me."

Xiao Zhu raised the corner of his mouth, but he suppressed it deliberately, "What's wrong?"

Mu Kong coughed and said, "Aren't you going to practice martial arts? I might have something to do in the afternoon."

After hearing this, Xiao Zhu had completely forgotten about going to Wenxiang Tower.

Feeling happy, she followed Mu Kong cautiously, feeling as if a stream was flowing through her heart, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. She raised her eyes and secretly looked at Mu Kong.

Mu Kong is tall and straight, and he has been practicing martial arts for many years, so his steps are very steady.

He smiled at Xiao Zhu from the side, and Xiao Zhu's heart was filled with joy.

Could it be that she warmed up the stone?

After they finished their training, Mu Kong rarely handed a sweat towel to Xiao Zhu. Xiao Zhu couldn't believe it and even suspected that Mu Kong had been possessed by another body.

Mu Kong shook the sweat towel and she quickly took it.

When Mu Kong waited for her to wipe her sweat, he asked, "What do you want to tell me today?"

Xiao Zhu remembered the important matter and told him a vivid account, "So, from now on, I'll have to rely on you to protect the girl."

Mu Kong nodded. After listening to Xiao Zhu's story about their dangerous encounter, he clenched his fists, the veins on his wrists became prominent, and a hint of anger appeared on his face. He usually had no expression, so this hint of anger was particularly obvious.

Xiao Zhu noticed and asked, "Mu Kong, what's wrong?"

Mu Kong said, "It's okay. If you do something dangerous like this again in the future, be sure to call me first. I will go with you."

Xiao Zhu nodded with a smile.

Xiao Zhu completely forgot about going to Wenxianglou, and Wen Jing waited in Wenxianglou for a whole day. When the store closed, he looked towards the door. The night had turned into thick ink, and the ink had stained his eyebrows. He left in disappointment.

At night, Helan Xuenuo asked, "Xiaozhu, what dishes did you learn today?"

Xiao Zhu slapped his head and said in frustration, "Oh no, I forgot... I was so busy practicing martial arts with Mu Kong that I completely forgot."

Helan Xuenuo understood in her heart that there was another sad person tonight. Xiaozhu could forget about it, and probably didn't like this shopkeeper Wen. So she should just let Xiaozhu do what she wanted from now on and not worry about it anymore.

After all, feelings are the hardest thing to talk about.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed, and during this period, two happy events came one after another from the capital.

The first thing is that the second prince and Shen Yinzhen got married, and Shen Yinzhen was able to secure the position of the second prince's consort.

The Prime Minister was so angry that he stayed indoors that day.

The Third Concubine Qiao from the Xiangfu even took advantage of Huang Jiuyuan to criticize him. Huang Jiuyuan didn't tolerate her and said contemptuously, "Concubine Qiao? What does it have to do with you who I marry? Could it be that you can't stand the Second Prince marrying a girl from the Shen family? If you are really that upset, the Second Prince and I are somewhat familiar with each other. I will talk to him someday."

The Third Aunt glared at him fiercely and was about to fight back when the Prime Minister came back from the outer courtyard, having just finished his morning court session.

Her expression suddenly changed, and she started to cry and yell, "How did I offend you? If you say that about your aunt... I won't live anymore..."

Huang Weiming happened to walk over as well, and he quickly stepped forward to support her and kiss her mother, looking like he was both upset and distressed for her. "Brother, I accept that you have a grudge against me, but you shouldn't take it out on my mother."

Huang Jiuyuan, "..."

Are these two still acting? This sudden change must have been his father's arrival. He felt a chill running down his spine and turned to look. Sure enough, his father was staring at him from behind, his eyes glaring with rage.

He planned to slip away from the side road and there was no point in arguing with them. This Third Aunt was really something. She ran into her early in the morning and started to talk nonsense with her, showing off her power as the housekeeper. She couldn't stand this Third Aunt the most because she looked like a vixen.

"Stop." The Prime Minister shouted sternly.

He knew that today's outcome might not be so easy, so he stopped and looked back.

The Prime Minister glanced at him from head to toe, then walked to the side of the Third Aunt Qiao. Qiao immediately leaned on the Prime Minister's arms, crying breathlessly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

The Prime Minister roared, "You unfilial son, what did you do to your aunt? Now she is considered your mother, how can you be so rebellious?"

Huang Jiuyuan didn't want to pay any attention to them, but when the word "mother" came out, a fire flared up in his heart. "Whose mother? I only have one mother, who died a long time ago. As for the cause of her death, I'm still curious. On the contrary, father, after my mother died, you took concubines one after another. I'm afraid you have been wishing for her to die for a long time?"

The prime minister was so angry that his hands were shaking, and he slapped Huang Jiuyuan. Huang Jiuyuan dodged it smartly, and the slap hit the air in the face.

The Prime Minister roared, "Get out! Get out!"

At this time, a cough was heard. The old lady of the Xiangfu Mansion was wearing a dark purple robe and a wooden hairpin on her head. She looked dignified and majestic. She said coldly, "I want to see who wants my grandson to get out?"

The Prime Minister greeted her respectfully, "Mother."

The old lady glanced at Mrs. Qiao, who immediately stopped crying. She held a handkerchief in her hand, and with gold and silver hairpins in her hair, she looked very frivolous, not like the head of the family at all.

The old lady was followed by her second concubine, Yuan. Yuan had a son with some intellectual problems, who lived in Yuan's villa all year round. Because Yuan gave birth to a stupid son, the prime minister became disgusted with her and stopped going to her villa.

Second concubine Yuan was much calmer and she rarely said a word in a day.

"What do you want to do now?" The old lady glanced at the third concubine Qiao with a gloomy look in her eyes.

Qiao lost her arrogance and shrank back, "No...no..."

Huang Weiming followed behind her mother.

The old lady laughed sarcastically, "Weiming? Why are you everywhere?"

Huang Weiming lowered his head and said, "Just happened to be passing by."

"What a coincidence."

The Prime Minister interrupted, "Mother, I am disciplining this rebellious son. You are old and should not worry too much. Aunt Yuan, please help the old lady back to the house."

Second concubine Yuan accepted the order and prepared to help the old lady up.

The old lady shook her off and said, "I'm not old enough to need help."

Turning to Third Aunt Qiao, he sternly said, "Xie'er is getting married in a few days. I don't want these quarrels to happen one after another in the mansion. If there are too many quarrels and they get out, it will affect Xie'er. Since... you can't manage the household well, then I'll leave it to Aunt Yuan from now on."
