Chapter 95 Competing for rewards

"Butler Tang, what's the matter in a hurry to find me?" Man Yue stepped forward and looked at Butler Tang calmly.

"Best lady, it's the palace that has an order. Now the father-in-law who is delivering the order is waiting in the hall." Butler Tang said hurriedly.

"For me?" Moon's eyes flashed.

If it weren't for the imperial edict given to her, she wouldn't have to wait for her to go there.

"It's the Queen Mother's decree."

"Then let's go over and don't let my father-in-law wait too long." Man Yue nodded at Butler Tang and walked towards the front hall.

The front hall of the Marquis' Mansion was already full of people, with Linghu Hongxi in the middle, and the old lady and Linghu Quan stood by his side. Then behind were the second wife, the third wife, Linghu Jie, Linghu Pingxue, Linghu Zilu, and other concubines.

The mother moon greeted Linghu Hongxi, Linghu Quan and the old lady, but the old lady still looked lukewarm.

"My daughter has met Eunuch Zhao." When Man Yue saw that Eunuch Zhao, the popular man who came to pass the imperial eunuch, came forward to salute.

"You are welcome. Since the eldest lady is here, the old slave will start reading the Queen Mother's decree."

Eunuch Zhao said as he opened the bright yellow file, and everyone knelt on the ground to answer the order.

Although Linghu Pingxue and the second wife were unwilling to accept it, this was the imperial edict of the empress dowager and the reward of Linghu Manyue. No matter how reluctant they were, they would not dare to express any disrespect in front of Eunuch Zhao.

The Empress Dowager is a follow-up reward for the full moon. The Feng Ding Bead he gave at the beginning was considered a reassurance for the full moon. Now the full moon solves the problem of the divine stone Anfeng. The Empress Dowager attaches so much importance to the divine stone, so she naturally needs to reward the full moon with glory.

There are eight boxes of silk, silk, satin, gold and silver beads. The boxes are opened at the same time, making people dizzy. Even when they are young, they have never seen such a brilliant and dazzling sacred object.

Linghu Pingxue's expression was twisted and ferocious for a moment.

The full moon kowtowed the leader's order, and Linghu Hongxi ordered the housekeeper Tang to reward Eunuch Zhao more. Eunuch Zhao received the reward and left the Marquis' Mansion with a smile.

"Come here, send the gifts given by the Empress Dowager to Jianjia Pavilion." Linghu Hongxi smiled elegantly and introvertedly, and spoke out to the servants.

This is, Linghu Jie frowned and came to Linghu Hongxi, muttering dissatisfiedly.

"Father, this is what the Empress Dowager gave to the Marquis' Mansion. What are you carrying it to Jianjia Pavilion?" As soon as Linghu Jie said this, he had already looked at the second wife, who had red eyes, and looked at Linghu Hongxi with a sad expression on her face.

The full moon put away the imperial edict and lowered her eyes without saying a word.

"Jie'er, since your father already has the answer, don't say too much. Follow me back to the yard." The second wife was also dissatisfied, but she had to pretend to be a victim on her face, as if she had an indescribable grievance and helplessness.

"Where does my father have the answer? Why are all these rewards given to her? Shouldn't it be the reward from the Marquis' Mansion?" Linghu Jiesan was unwilling to accept it. This sister was lawless without caring about the real wine. Last time, she lost all her face in front of the third prince. Now she still wants to take the rewards herself! Dreaming!

Linghu Zilu stood at the end, listening to Linghu Jie's words, and was eager to interrupt, but when she saw Linghu Hongxi's dark face and thought about her current situation, she could only swallow her words unwillingly.

Linghu Hongxi frowned, and his eyes looked at Linghu Jie with deep disappointment.

"The divine stone was promised by your sister. The Queen Mother can prove this matter. What else are you dissatisfied with? The Queen Mother rewarded it to your sister, but the honor belongs to the entire Marquis' Mansion! Is it wrong for the father?" Linghu Hongxi now looked at the people in the second house and was disliked.

One daughter was whining, taking off her clothes and going crazy, the other was not willing to show off to the limelight, and the other thought she had been with Lin Donghe for many years and had no idea of ​​the world! If she didn't take good care of them, it would be a disaster for the Marquis' Mansion sooner or later.

"Hongxi, what you said naturally makes sense, but the Empress Dowager gave such a generous reward to the Maid of the Moon for the sake of the Marquis's mansion. The Maid of the Moon is still young, how is it appropriate to put so much gold, silver and jewelry around you?" The old lady felt sorry for her grandson, and she didn't even see that the Empress Dowager received so many rewards from the Moon.

"Mother, do you mean to take back the reward from the full moon? Is it just that our Marquis' Mansion is short of these rewards?" Linghu Hongxi knew that his mother favored the second house and had always adhered to filial piety, and always turned a blind eye, but what is the difference between this situation now and robbing?

Don’t you own enough in the second house?

The old lady was blocked by Linghu Hongxi, and her face was dull and she hated Chunyue even more. But Chunyue didn't say a word at this moment, and let others fight, blushing.

"This is not a matter of difference, but a matter of rules!" The old lady was used to being strong, so she was naturally not willing to be outdone at this moment.

Linghu Pingxue looked at the Moon who was drooping his eyes and a vicious look flashed in her eyes. She then took a step forward and pretended to support her grandmother, but deliberately made a statement to make things difficult for Moon.

"Sister, are you saying something? You see that my grandmother is angry, please persuade my father." Linghu Manyue is best at persuading others with a general and sensible look. In fact, her vicious thoughts can be seen at this moment.

Let the Moon persuade Linghu Hongxi?

What should I advise? Give up these rewards to fulfill them?

Full Moon's eyes turned cold, he raised his head to meet Linghu Pingxue's hypocritical face, curled his thin lips and sneered,

"What did the second sister ask me to advise my father? Do you advise me not to blame my second sister for almost implicating the entire Marquis' Mansion in Weiyang Palace? In fact, Man Yue thinks what my elder brother said just now makes sense." Man Yue turned his tone, but a hint of mocking cold light flashed in his eyes.

Linghu Jie snorted in his nose, and he didn't believe that Linghu Manyue could say anything nice.

Linghu Pingxue's face became even more ugly! Linghu Manyue was deliberately mentioning the Weiyang Palace and making her look ugly!

"The elder brother said that the reward was given for the sake of the Marquis' Mansion. If the reward was to be distributed to others, then the second sister almost caused a disaster in Weiyang Palace this time. The empress dowager did not blame a lot. In fact, it was not pursued for the sake of the Marquis' Mansion, rather than giving up because of the second sister. In this way, the reward does not belong to the one who is a full month, so can the mistakes made by the second sister also be shirked to others, such as the elder brother sharing the burden, the second wife sharing the burden, and the other brothers and sisters sharing the burden? Then - will the grandmother and father also share the burden?"

After the words of the Full Moon ended, Linghu Quan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

The old lady's face was as dark as charcoal.

The second lady opened her mouth, and she couldn't even say a word that was blocked by the words of the Month.

The third lady, who had been silent, saw the time coming, twisted her waist and walked forward, glanced at the second lady with gloating pleasure, and said with a smile,

"Oh - So, our third wife also has to be punished with my sister, the daughter who caused trouble? Tsk tsk! Why don't my sister talk? When there is a reward, my sister's son and daughter all jumped out. When I hear that I'm going to be punished, why don't I say anything? Shouldn't the family have the blessings and the difficulty of sharing the same? Since I can't bear the difficulty, don't rush to get the blessings."

The third lady said that she had a gun and a stick, and every word and sentence mocked the second lady.

If the second wife refutes the third wife at this moment, then don’t continue to pretend to be pitiful and want to give me something. But if you don’t say anything, wouldn’t it be equivalent to acquiescing the third wife?

The third bedroom has always been incompatible with the second bedroom. Because he was a relative of King Anping and was related to Linghu Quan, he did not let the second bedroom go when he was looking for an opportunity.

This place is quarreling, Linghu Hongxi's brows are deeply locked, and his anger is about to break out.

"Father, my daughter is tired and wants to go back and rest first." Man Yue did not urge Linghu Hongxi, but she spoke like this, instead she had to make a decision.

"The Empress Dowager's reward is given to the Full Moon. All the rewards are given to the Full Moon. No one can mention this matter in the future! And you!" Linghu Hongxi suddenly looked at Linghu Pingxue, and his face could not hide his disappointment.

"Father, I--" Linghu Pingxue was stunned and looked at Linghu Hongxi with grievance.

"You have caused great disasters. Your father has never blamed you, but you do not repent. Shouldn't you think about it in the room now? What are you doing? And you! Zilu! What are you doing?!"

Linghu Hongxi even brought in with her eyes.

It was too late for Linghu Zilu to hide behind everyone.

Linghu Pingxue looked at Linghu Hongxi with tears in her eyes, and her hatred for the Moon was even more gritting her teeth.

When the old lady heard Linghu Hongxi say this, her face turned pale.

Linghu Jie wanted to speak, but was grabbed by the second wife. Linghu Hongxi decided to protect Linghu Manyue today. If Linghu Jie spoke again, he might also be punished.

"Okay, okay! You are the dignified marquis. You can make any decisions you want! I can't control it!"

The old lady spoke in anger, then she greeted her without saying a word, and then raised her feet and walked out.

When passing by Man Yue, he glared at Man Yue fiercely, his eyes were like a knife and arrows, and he wished he could remove the bones of Man Yue into his abdomen.

The second wife followed the old lady quickly with Linghu Jie with unwilling expressions and Linghu Pingxue, who was deeply aggrieved.

Seeing this, Linghu Quan stepped forward and walked to the front of the Moon, sighed lightly, and said lightly,

"Let's go."

"Yes, aunt." After rushing to Linghu Hongxi's blessing, Man Yue left the front hall with Linghu Quan.

Linghu Hongxi looked at the back of the full moon, and her brows were always frowning.

The people in the second room became increasingly ignorant, and the old lady was obviously partial. The mother-moon girl would not have a better life in the future. Could it be that she should find a marriage for her as soon as possible?

Several candidates flashed through Linghu Hongxi, but they all had their own disadvantages.
