With that, he Xiang hurried out of the house to fetch water for mu Cen to clean up.
When the master and the servant were ready, it was still not bright. Mu Cen led the lotus incense to the ancestral hall. On the way, they did not talk. When the cold wind blew, Mu Cen felt a little cold.
Until in front of the ancestral hall, Mu Cen stopped.
The lamp is on in the ancestral hall.
Mu Cen quietly looked at one eye, side head said: "you wait at the door."
"Yes." He Xiang answered respectfully.
Then Mu Cen went in and knelt down in the ancestral hall. He didn't mean to get up. Occasionally he Xiang would look at it and feel sad.
It's not only mu Cen's thin clothes, but the ancestral temple is also used by the royal palace to punish those who have made mistakes. I really can't stand kneeling there for a long time.
And now it's time for Wang Xueshuang to get up. He Xiang is worried that Mu Cen can't stand it.
But mu Cen seems to have nothing to do, just kneeling, straight spine, even motionless. He Xiang paid attention to it. He didn't recover until the sound of footsteps came from outside the ancestral hall.
She looked at the visitor, blessed body please Ann: "maidservant met mother Li."
Li Ma's brow twisted, obviously also had some accidents: "he Xiang, how did you come to the ancestral hall if you didn't serve your young lady well in the early morning? What's up? "
He Xiang shook his head, and then said, "the maid came with the young lady. The young lady came an hour ago. She knelt down in the ancestral hall for an hour and said that she had come to apologize."
Although he Xiang is simple, staying in King Mu's residence for a long time doesn't mean he Xiang is a brainless person.
Therefore, he Xiang was very clear about what to say and what not to say.
In Mama Li's puzzled eyes, he Xiang continued to explain: "Miss said that yesterday's thing, she did wrong, should not be impulsive in such an occasion, to embarrass the Lord and the old lady, she should bear it."
Mother Li didn't speak.
He Xiang then went on: "because of this, the young lady got up before dawn and didn't eat anything. After cleaning up, she came to the ancestral hall."
Mother Li nodded: "I know."
He Xiang is also smart no longer say anything. Standing quietly at the door.
Mother Li didn't stay much, but walked towards the ancestral hall. Her movement was very light, and didn't disturb Mu Cen. Mu Cen didn't seem to know the movement behind her, and she was still kneeling quietly.
There are words in my mouth.
Mammy Li looked up and saw that what Mu Cen was holding was a Buddhist Scripture, or a Buddhist Scripture that Wang Xueshuang read the most on weekdays.
Mother Li's smile in her eyebrow was a little deeper, and then she came to the side of Mu Cen: "Miss, what are you doing! This can't be done. "
"Mammy." Mu Cen called mother Li, looking a little weak, but still modest, "Mu CEN is here to receive punishment."
"What's wrong with Miss? Even if it's wrong, the old lady and the Lord didn't say anything, and miss doesn't have to kneel down here." Mother Li wants to help Mu Cen.
Where is the ancestral hall? Mother Li knows very well that normal people can't stand kneeling for a long time.
Not to mention Mu Cen.
Even if Mu Cen just replied, Gu Fu, who adopted Mu Cen, never let Mu Cen suffer. According to the time of lotus fragrance, Mu Cen has been kneeling here for a full hour.
For an hour, there will be something wrong with the kneecap.
Mu Cen smiles and is calm: "Mu Cen knows that mother Li is good for mu Cen. But wrong is wrong, Mu Cen in this automatic penalty, also can let oneself calm down
Mother Li didn't speak, and her eyes looked behind her.
Mother GUI has helped Wang Xueshuang.
Mu Cen also sensed that someone was coming outside. She knew that it was Wang Xueshuang. She lowered her eyebrows and said faintly, "these Buddhist scriptures are also read by the old lady. Mu Cen can also pray for the king's house and the old lady. It's nothing bad."
"Miss, the old lady will be very happy to know your filial piety. I don't think the old lady will blame the young lady for what happened yesterday. After all, miss is innocent Mother Li spoke.
But her body slightly down, voice became light up: "Miss, the old lady is coming."
Then, mother Li said nothing more, quietly retreated to one side, Mu Cen turned to look at Wang Xueshuang, wanted to stand up and say hello, but because kneeling too long, the moment of getting up was still a bit staggering.
Mammy Li has been quick to help Mu Cen: "Miss, you slow down."
"Not in the way." Mu Cen gave a gentle smile.
Wang Xueshuang didn't speak, but just looked at Mu Cen like this: "why don't you kneel here before dawn?"
"If you go back to grandma, because of yesterday." Mu Cen tells the truth.
"What happened yesterday?" Wang Xueshuang continued to ask, eyes also followed sharp up.
Mu CEN is not ambiguous: "yesterday's toast, cen Er should not be sensible, quiet, let it go. As a result, cen'er screams out, causing so much trouble. "
Wang Xueshuang picks eyebrows: "the side imperial concubine takes the initiative to provoke you, you pour is good, gave this matter to take to own body."
"Niang Niang is the elder, cen Er is just the younger. There is no such thing as active provocation. What's more, the empress has also been punished. As a junior, it's natural for cen'er to come to the ancestral hall to receive the punishment automatically. " Mu Cen said softly, "please forgive Cen er's ignorance."
This, the brow that Wang Xueshuang tightly wrinkles is to follow to stretch to open.
In the palace, the past few years seem to be calm, but everyone knows that such calm is turbulent.
Chen Zhirong is in power, and the other two concubines are on their own, but being on their own doesn't mean they don't have any ideas. After all, no one can get the position of housewife.
It also means that everyone can.
So Wang Xueshuang has a lot of flattering words, but it's Mu Cen's real words. It's much more comfortable to hear Wang Xueshuang's heart relax.
With Mu Cen's understanding, Wang Xueshuang is more and more satisfied.
"OK, I knelt down for an hour. I've been punished. Let lotus fragrance send you back to rest." Wang Xueshuang opened her mouth.
What happened yesterday, Wang Xueshuang didn't have any opinions about Mu Cen.
Only in that case, Mu CEN is indeed a victim. In addition to the fact that she has gained more and more power in recent years, Wang Xueshuang wants to teach her a lesson.
Wang Xueshuang didn't expect that Mu Cen came to the ancestral hall to receive punishment, but she came before dawn. She thought Mu Cen was just talking casually.
This move made Wang Xueshuang look at Mu Cen,
I feel more and more satisfied.
There are not many people in the palace who are so clever and sensible.
Mu Zhihua grew up in the palm of his hand when he was young. Although he was gentle, he still had a delicate temperament.
