Feeling that something was wrong, he turned around and asked the village head, then called the official over. He took out the household register and asked: "How come this household register doesn't match up to the number of people in the village?"
The Village Chief did not feel anything yet, Yang Zixuan and Mu Jinzhi's heart skipped a beat! The newcomers were indeed not friendly.
Zuo Ren Xian twitched his mouth in disdain at the side, but upon seeing Mu Jinzhi sneaking a glance at him, he dispelled the disdain in his eyes and smiled intimately, as if the Eunuch Lu standing in front of him was a 15 or 16 year old girl.
"Eunuch Lu, the family that you speak of is this grandpa's little cousin?"
How could Eunuch Lu, who had stayed in the palace for so many years, not understand the meaning behind his words? He responded with a smile that was not a smile: "I am only following orders, Your Majesty wants to pick girls, the commoners, and all the good looking people are all registered, could it be that Young Master Zuo is dissatisfied with this?"
"Young sir, please don't be angry. My cousin has always been a man of his words. I will just say that I'm following orders, and if I'm not young, I will invite you to my house for a cup of tea."
Since Mu Rousang was already engaged, there was nothing for him to be afraid of. If his father-in-law really dared to snatch it away, he would not be able to leave the boundaries of Shu Province.
The Eunuch Lu squinted his eyes and said: "Sir Mu is a person who knows what's good for her, so you don't have to worry about it."
Mu Jinzhi had no choice but to invite everyone to his house. He secretly exchanged glances with Yang Zixuan, then sent people to notify Mu Rousang at home.
At this time, Mu Rousang was embroidering a marriage dress in her embroidery room. Hearing her words, she lowered her head and smiled coldly, the Princess Xiangyang was really chasing after her relentlessly, she had already cut off all ties with Su Ruirui and was even betrothed to him. Yet, to be still making things so difficult for her, it was just a slap on her face.
"Aunt Liu, in a while, there will be a man from outside the family who will come here. I am afraid that the little girl, Wives, will not know of this matter, so I hope that Aunt can help look after it."
Aunt Liu replied, "Miss only wants to be at ease and sit in her room. Even if it's an official, Miss has already made up her mind that we are not going to make an exception. It might even be possible for me to recognize you."
She knew that Mu Rousang was telling her to hide first.
Mu Rousang laughed and asked: "Aunty, please do not blame me, I only wanted to give that eunuch a pleasant surprise, even if it is an official chosen, I think that he has some face in the palace, if he really knows Aunt, it would be better for me to sit down to tea and eat some fruits, and recount my past."
Aunt Liu laughed: "Young lady's idea is very good." It was unknown if she was praising Mu Rousang for using her previous identity to intimidate people who came, or if she was praising someone as an old acquaintance, she could really recount old stories.
"Aunt, please go down first and ask the little girl, Wives, to restrain himself." Mu Rousang was afraid that they would arrive at her doorstep, hence she sent the Aunt Liu down first.
Just now when she was holding the little brat in the kitchen yard, she heard footsteps in the courtyard and knew that her father-in-law and the rest of them had come. Aunt Liu quickly sent the little brat to bring the tea and fruits he had prepared beforehand.
After Mu Jinzhi and the others took their seats, they started to chat. Eunuch Lu then started to talk about the reason why he came: "I heard that the Mu Family has a female child who has just matured.
Mu Jinzhi and the other two looked at each other, and asked: "Eunuch, what do you mean by that?"
"I've come to Sichuan and heard about your sister's beautiful appearance. Why haven't I seen her today?"
Furthermore, before he left the capital, someone secretly gave him three thousand taels of silver in banknotes. He said that the other party wanted to bring the Mu Rou Sang, who was from a small mountain village in Peace Town, into the palace to serve the Your Majesty.
Mu Jinzhi secretly understood the meaning of Eunuch Lu's words. Although his little sister was outstanding, she did not spread the news about the pavilion, and only someone with ulterior motives laid a trap for her to slip in, letting out two snorts in his heart.
"Someone, go get the girl! Just say that the envoy from the Eunuch Lu has come to visit us. "
"Young master, this servant will go now!"
A woman with her head lowered replied as she walked in. It was Aunt Liu.
Due to him lowering his head, Eunuch Lu only felt that his figure was somewhat familiar, he did not think much about it, and only said: "I am only doing business, and this was my orders to begin with, there is absolutely no reason why I should not wholeheartedly do it."
The Aunt Liu heard the familiar voice, and also heard Mu Jinzhi call him Eunuch Lu. She stealthily raised her eyelids to take a glance at him and thought, what a good day, when you're in the countryside you become a king, you don't even deserve to be her shoes.
It turned out that Rwanda was the emperor's personal eunuch who was dedicated to offering incense. He didn't know what kind of luck he had, but the most important task for these sons of his to leave the palace fell to him.
Aunt Liu thought as she invited Mu Rousang out to meet him.
When Eunuch Lu saw that her gauze mask couldn't hide his loose body, he became even more suspicious. Why did this country bumpkin girl have a grudge with the Grand Preceptor?
"Young Master Mu, your sister really has an outstanding appearance. A girl like her would be favored by the imperial palace." The meaning behind his words was to bring Mu Rousang away.
Yang Zixuan could not hold it in any longer. After working with him as a pillar for half a day, this damn eunuch really thought of him as a sweet onion.
Seeing that an official was about to go up and capture Mu Rousang, he stepped forward to protect her. Mu Jinzhi and Zuo Ren then stood behind her slowly, looking like they were about to start a gang fight.
Eunuch Lu had seen this kind of fearsome villager before, and was furious to the point of trembling. He pointed at Mu Jinzhi and said: "Big, big, how dare you make things difficult for the people …."
"Rwanda!" Aunt Liu was enraged, her dantian bellowed.
Eunuch Lu followed her shout and looked as if he had seen a ghost, and said in shock: "Liu, Liu, Liu Wanshi, you, you, why are you here?"
Originally, Aunt Liu who didn't like to talk about herself was the palace maid by the Empress's side, then the Queen went away, was transferred to the Imperial Concubine's side and was promoted to a young servant. Finally, Xiangyang King Su Ruirui asked his to come over and help him become a upbringing aunt.
Eunuch Lu immediately understood that this was just a scam, and the owner of the scam could even tell that it was Su Ruirui just by thinking about it.
"Your wings are now so hard that you have to capture someone before the matter is clear. Why don't you ask why?"
The Aunt Liu also did not want to become enemies with him. As the saying goes, the King of Hell is easy to deal with, but the little ghost is hard to deal with.
Yang Zixuan said coldly: "Aunt is right. Moreover, Sang'er is already engaged to me, there is no reason for him to enter the palace again."
The Eunuch Lu became even more flustered when he heard this, the Grand Tutor had asked him to capture the man and send him to the palace, now it seems like it was the Princess Xiangyang's doing, it's just that the Aunt Liu was originally a gentle servant by the side of the Imperial Concubine. He heard that the Xiangyang King wanted him, it seems like he had to withdraw in time, in case he got smelly, in the eyes of the Emperor, in front of his son, this little eunuch was nothing.
He then smiled and said, "It's already decided. Bring the letter of engagement over, and I will have the witnesses confirm it one by one. If it's recorded in the magistrate court, there will be no reason for us to take it back."
Hearing that, everyone had a weird expression on their faces. Yang Zixuan awkwardly laughed, and said with his face plastered against hers: "Eunuch, how about I just let you take a look at this betrothal letter? It's just that there are some things up there that are inconvenient for others to see. "
Eunuch Lu did not want to get into trouble, so he said: "You guys can have someone take it out for me to see!"
Mu Rousang quickly invited the Aunt Liu to go to the room to bring the betrothal letter and passed it over to him. He opened it and glanced at Yang Zixuan with a strange gaze, then smiled and said: "Kid, you have guts to accept such a thing. It is fortunate that Master Hou has a direct son.
Yang Zixuan could only look at Mu Rousang helplessly, then lowered his head and rubbed his nose. Laughing, laughing, he thought that these people were all envious of him.
Eunuch Lu closed the letter and thought for a moment, then looked at Aunt Liu, and told the other officials and servants to withdraw, before saying: "Waiter, today I will give you face, this matter was ordered by someone above, as long as wood girl is brought into the palace, and then I will suppress her, and you can live the rest of your life as a palace maid. As for who did this, there is no need for me to say explicitly."
Aunt Liu's face sank as she said: "My lady has already kept her bow, she has never done anything disgraceful, not to mention that she is already engaged to the second son of Marquis Zhong Yi, and has no reason to enter the palace. I think that the other party will be satisfied with this reasoning, you do not need to worry."
Mu Rousang was not annoyed, she had not planned to enter that broken place yet, it was as if she was guarding against thieves, and she was extremely glad that she promised Yang Zixuan that in the future, there would not be many women from the backyard to block her.
Thank you, Eunuch Lu, for your advice. However, Eunuch and Aunt were originally acquainted, so why don't you stay for a meal and return to the county tomorrow?
Eunuch Lu laughed: Forget about casual food, let's just drink another cup of tea. Seeing Liu Wanshi coming out fully, it can be considered as a good thing for me.
Aunt Liu was able to leave the palace from the place that was filled with corpses and bones. One could only imagine how strong was.
The Aunt Liu was left behind for's company and after chatting for a bit, more customers came from the Mu family. The official then walked in with his walking stick and reported with a smile: "Young Master, Young Miss, Chen Shou Bei is here."
"Chen Shou? "Quick, invite him in." Mu Jinzhi immediately said, but in his heart he was thinking, it was still too early for the peaches to blossom and bear fruit, what was Chen Lie here for?
Just as Eunuch Lu was pondering who Chen Shou was, he shot him a glance and said: "Rwanda, don't blame me for not reminding you, this Chen Shougang is a strong general under the Xiangyang King."
