The peerless and dark princess

Chapter 101: Coming of Age

Huang Qinya also knew that she should send the two sisters-in-law back to the Dong family first, but she still couldn't help but whisper in Mu Wange's ear, "Although I know what you and your uncle are doing, as a girl, your uncle and grandfather are responsible for these things. You should..."

"Aunt, Ge'er understands. It's not what you think. This happened by chance, so I asked you to bring the news to my uncle and the others." Mu Wange had to comfort Huang Qinya against her will. She knew from her visit to Prince Yan's Mansion that except for Old Madam Chu, the women in Prince Yan's Mansion didn't know about the Chu family's affairs. Although they were a little more vigilant than others, some matters concerning the Chu family had always been decided by the men of the Chu family.

This shows that Chu Lianyue, Chu Lianyao, Chu Lixiu and others protect their female relatives very well.

A few months had passed since Chu Moxuan's coming-of-age ceremony, and Mu Wange's coming-of-age ceremony was on the agenda. However, Mu Heng, as her father, had no memory of it at all.

That is to say, Old Madam Mu remembered this because Mu Wange was a legitimate daughter, and Qiao Yan had no children yet. Therefore, Old Madam Mu suggested to Qiao Yan that Mu Wange should arrange for her to come of age.

Mu Wange also noticed that Shen Xinyue had been much quieter recently, and he didn't know what bad ideas she was secretly planning.

However, Zhao Yaxin's daughter, born to Chen Yunfeng, is not even a full month old yet, while Muruohan has been in the palace for quite some time. She didn't even leave the palace for such a major event as Chen Yunfeng's marriage to Guan Lian Yi. The matter of Chen Yunfeng marrying his first wife was entirely handled by the nanny beside Queen Meng Yujiao, except that the groom looked a little unhappy.

Guan Lianyi's father was eventually won over by Meng Yujiao to serve under the second prince Chen Yunfeng, and the crown prince Chen Yunjie and the third prince Chen Yunbin were not to be trifled with either, and they successively won over several other officials.

The struggle for the throne began quietly, and with the news released by Zuo Ci, the capital was in a state of panic for a while.

Leng Qing looked at the busy Zuo Ci and couldn't help but remind him, "Master, this Miss Mu is coming of age, shouldn't you prepare a gift for her?"

"Jigui? Mu elegy?"

Zuo Ci was bewildered. He had been so busy these days that he often skipped the morning court. Chen Yan, on the other hand, was hoping Zuo Ci would behave this way, so that the ministers in the court would be even more disdainful of his association. Although Zuo Ci was no longer a thorn in his side, Chen Yan was still wary of him.

"Well, the Mu Mansion has already prepared a coming-of-age banquet for Miss Mu on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month. Many people who are close to Mu Heng and those who curry favor with Prince Yan's Mansion are preparing to attend, and I'm afraid that person in the palace also has some ideas..."

"Yes, I understand. The one in the palace won't, but the one in the Central Palace may not. Leng Qing, you should send this news to Leng Xue first. He knows what to do."

Zuo Ci responded, but his expression remained unchanged as he continued with what he had just done, causing Leng Qing to complain in his heart: This man is so cold-hearted and cold-blooded that he can't even cause the slightest disturbance from a woman like Miss Mu. It's really...

Not to mention that Zuo Ci didn't know what Leng Qing was thinking, he was really busy at the moment, and he was really busy at this moment.

Although he had the Chu family of Prince Yan's Mansion and had won Du Yuanhuai's favor, no one in the court was his.

Because of the infighting among Chen Yan's three princes, this gave him the opportunity to successively plant a number of people under the command of Chen Yunfeng, Chen Yunjie, and Chen Yunbin. At the same time, it also alienated the relationship between Mu Heng and Chen Yunjie. However, due to Muruohan's relationship, Mu Heng had secretly established a connection with Chen Yunfeng.

-Dividing line-

Mu Wange was really a little worried at this time. Coming of age was a big event for a girl, so the Prince of Yan's Mansion asked Chu Lixiu and his brothers to prepare the clothes for the day early on.

Although they knew that Madam Mu would make proper arrangements for the sake of Prince Yan's Mansion, Yu Yan'er and Huang Qinya felt that because Chu Moxuan had not handled her relationship with the royal family well before, Mu Wange's coming-of-age banquet should be held properly.

Furthermore, it is because of this that Mu Wange cannot bear the injustice he has suffered in the Mu Mansion over the years.

"Miss, this is from the master."

"Please give it to Nanny Chen."

Nowadays, in Mu Wange's Tingxue Garden, these things are generally managed by Nanny Chen.

Although Nanny Chen was the nanny beside Mu Haolin, there was not much going on on Mu Wange's side, and many things were handled by the four maids including Shiqi Yihua, the other four maids including Yalan Ruolan, and the other little maids.

Mu Ying, Mu Feng, and Mu Yu, who were by Mu Haolin's side, had gradually grown up. Especially Mu Ying, as Zuo Jiu's disciple, was already able to go out and handle things on his own. If Mu Haolin was not still too young and needed help, Mu Wange would have planned to let him take charge of Xuanying alone.

But Qingyu is not interested in this, so his kung fu is just enough to protect himself, but his academic performance is the best.

"Miss, the old lady has sent the dress. Will you wear the dress sent by the old lady or the one sent by Prince Yan's Mansion tomorrow?"

"Madame Chen, just wear the ones sent by Prince Yan's Mansion. And the ones sent by Grandmother can be placed in the cabinet."

Mu Wange looked at two sets of clothes for her coming-of-age ceremony, and the ones her aunts had sent her were indeed more suitable for her. As for her grandmother, Old Madam Mu's clothes were mainly luxurious, but they didn't suit Mu Wange. Although they were also beautiful, they seemed to be missing something.

"Sister, your dress is so beautiful."

"Lan Xin, you'll be coming of age soon. When the time comes, I'll give you a set too."

"Well, I wouldn't dare be like you, my elder sister. Grandma will definitely have prepared something by then. How could I go against Grandma's wishes and wear something else..."

Mu Lanxin shook her head repeatedly. As a concubine's daughter, it was already a good thing for her to be able to do her own thing. But she was still in the Mu Mansion, and unlike Mu Wange, she didn't have the support of the Prince of Yan's Mansion. Naturally, she couldn't go against her grandmother's wishes.

"I can give you another set that's suitable for you to wear on weekdays."

"Thank you, big sister."

Mu Lanxin knew that Mu Wange was sincere, so she stopped refusing and agreed. After all, it was just a set of clothes, she could buy it elsewhere or earn some extra money for her.

"Oh, Third Sister has really found a powerful figure. Now she follows the eldest sister closely. But don't forget, she is the legitimate daughter, while you and I are just a concubine's daughter."

When Mu Qiaoyun came to give a gift, she heard the conversation between Mu Wange and Mu Lanxin.

"Mu Qiaoyun, where are you coming from?"

"Yes, please."

"If you want, you don't have to. We don't have a good relationship anyway."

"Do you think I'm willing? I don't want my grandmother to know..."

Mu Wange understood. Although Madam Mu didn't like Mu Qiaoyun, the outward sisterly harmony still had to be maintained.

Although Mu Lanxin had ignored her before, she knew that she had to strike at the weakest point. "Fifth sister, there's nothing wrong with me following the eldest sister. You were following the second sister back then. How did the second sister become the second prince's concubine without making any plans for you? Fifth sister's coming-of-age ceremony will be in early summer next year..."

As expected, Mu Qiaoyun's expression changed immediately. "Then will there be any good results for you if you stay with your elder sister? I'm afraid it will be worse than mine."
