Chapter 104: The Hostility of the Minister of Officials
It happened that the boys brought another carriage.
Mu Ziqian didn't seem to understand what Mu Zhao meant and walked straight to the carriage.
Pinkie stood up straight and looked at him, her lips pursed tightly.
At first, she just looked at him normally, but in the end, she stared at him with anger.
When Mu Ziqian was about to board the car, he looked back at her, and Pinkie's eyes swayed.
Mu Ziqian was about to nod to her as a sign of courtesy.
Pink Butterfly suddenly said: "Be careful."
Mu Ziqian looked at her doubtfully.
Pinkie suddenly sneered, turned around and entered the house.
Mu Ziqian looked at her back for a while, then lowered his head and entered the carriage.
All of this was seen by Mu Zhao, who was secretly eating melons. She looked at the two people and got a message from them.
Fendie was not just caring about Mu Ziqian, she told Mu Ziqian to be careful.
Instead, she was angry with Mu Ziqian.
Or it can be said that she was angry with herself. If Mu Ziqian turned around, she would tell him a piece of news.
Mu Ziqian turned around and she advised him to be careful.
This shows that this hunting ground is dangerous.
She felt that the suspicion of Pinkie being the killer was even greater.
She also felt that this autumn hunting might not be peaceful.
The carriage was about to leave, and Mu Zhao slowly drove his horse.
The horse walked slowly, and she thought carefully.
There was Qiu Lie in her previous life, but at that time, her third brother's leg had just been broken.
She was already ill, but after hearing the news that her second brother's leg was broken because of her, her condition became much worse.
The eldest brother Mu Ziqian did not go to this autumn hunting in order to take care of them.
And nothing special happened during this autumn hunt.
Could it be said that this accident was aimed at the eldest brother?
Emperor Zhou felt that the third brother was of no use for the time being, so he was going to start attacking the eldest brother?
But the eldest brother really looks like he has no desires and needs. Why on earth would he attack him?
Mu Zhao thought bigger.
If something happens to the eldest brother, the news will reach the frontier in two months.
reached his father's ears.
If this happens, will it affect his father's state of mind? Affect his judgment when fighting?
Mu Zhao shook his head. According to his father's level of loyalty, even if his eldest brother died, he would complete every war without distraction.
If Emperor Zhou had played such a dispensable game, then he would no longer be the cunning Emperor Zhou.
Many things in this life have changed, the second prince suffered heavy losses, and the most important positions in the court, such as the Minister of Revenue, are still vacant.
The second prince would inevitably not do something.
Maybe this time, it has nothing to do with their Mu family.
Mu Zhao thought this and relaxed a little.
They arrived outside the city all the way, and other officials and family members had already arrived. From their appearance, they seemed to be waiting for Emperor Zhou's family.
Mu Ziqian got out of the car and said hello to those he knew.
Mu Zhao dismounted and followed Mu Ziqian, laughing from time to time.
The atmosphere is quite harmonious.
Until a greasy voice sounded, "My niece."
Mu Zhao's brows furrowed. Except Cheng Xiong, the Minister of Civil Affairs, no one would call her his niece.
She turned her face, laughed again, and called out distantly, "Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."
"Hey~" Cheng Xiong looked at her with a smile, "Just call me Shibo. Your father and I are old friends. We have known each other since we were fighting against the world."
Mu Zhaoqian laughed twice and turned around.
Mu Ziqian stood in front of Mu Zhao and said to Cheng Xiong in the same distant manner: "In private, you can call me Shibo, but in front of all the officials, it is better to call you Minister of Civil Affairs."
"You," Cheng Xiong's smile faded a little, "You are good everywhere, but you are too aware of etiquette."
Mu Ziqian was neither humble nor arrogant. "The minister of official affairs is overly praised."
Cheng Xiong's smile became even fainter. He pointed at the carriage that had never moved, "What? Our Dali Temple Minister is also going with us?"
He used the word "Dali Temple Qing" very strongly, and the irony was obvious.
After he finished speaking, he woke up from a dream again and said apologetically: "Ah, I forgot, Mr. Mu is no longer the minister of Dali Temple. He has inconvenient legs and feet, so he will not participate in this autumn hunting."
When several people around heard this, they stayed away from them.
There were rumors in the capital a few days ago that the temperament of the third son of the Mu family has changed drastically since his leg was broken and his position as Minister of Dali Temple was taken away.
What happened to the official minister today? He actually touched their brows.
Mu Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling a little strange.
But someone was provoking them, so naturally she wouldn't let him.
Mu Zhao poked his head out from behind Mu Ziqian, "So today, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel goes to Qiu Hunting. Is he taking the eldest lady or the second lady with him?"
She deliberately aggravated the Second Madam.
The second wife of their family died suddenly a few days ago. They claimed to the outside world that the second wife died of illness, but these dignitaries all guessed that he was forced to death by his powerful wife.
Moreover, the Minister of Civil Affairs was from a poor family, and it was only because of the financial support of his eldest wife, a daughter of a noble family, that he was admitted to the top three universities. With his eldest wife and father-in-law paving the way for him, he was able to achieve this position step by step.
The eldest lady was extremely kind to him, but she was too jealous.
He was both respectful and afraid of his eldest wife.
When Mu Zhao said this, Cheng Xiong's expression immediately changed and his smile disappeared.
Mu Zhao watched the change in his expression with satisfaction, then covered his mouth in feigned surprise, "Ah, I forgot, your second wife died suddenly."
Cheng Xiong looked at Mu Zhao's agile appearance, and his face that was about to look a little angry actually started to laugh again.
He narrowed his eyes with a smile, "It's normal if you don't remember. After all, you were still grounded at that time. My niece, the grounding these days has been hard on you, right?"
Mu Zhao: "..."
She hid behind Mu Ziqian again. Even if you say you have won with such a person, if he glances at you with his squinting eyes, you will lose. This chapter has been completed!
