Chapter 342 Prince Xiaoduo, she is teasing you
The reason why I think this is because Hong Xiaoduo helped the Third Division solve the case. The emperor must know it, so he wants to keep someone?
Fengliang Kingdom also had female officials before. Although the female official later died of illness and there were no more female officials after that, at least there was a precedent for women to serve as officials.
“I finally came to the capital and visited the Ministry of Justice, so I wanted to visit the Ministry of Etiquette and learn more.” Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile.
"Prince Mu, Xiaoduo is teasing you." Hua on the side couldn't help but speak.
Mu Rongjing looked at Hong Xiaoduo helplessly, but she was quite happy in her heart and liked that she would joke with him.
"Hey, what is your prince?" Hua asked looking at the baggage in Mu Rongjing's hand.
"My mother had some clothes made for Xiaoduo and asked me to send them over. She told Xiaoduo to keep the ones she liked and throw away the ones she didn't like." Mu Rongjing looked at Hong. Xiaoduo responded to Fahrenheit.
Hong Xiaoduo just saw the package in his hand, and was still thinking that the clothes were sent to him, but he didn't have such a big package.
Wen Yan stepped forward to take the package, put it on the table and opened it. In addition to the one he changed into at the Hou Mansion, there were three other sets inside. Looking at it, the styles are all the ones I wore before, what color? One set is light cyan, one set is plum green, and one set is light lotus color.
"Wow, the princess chose the colors very well. I like them all. Isn't the embroidery on it so exquisite?" Hong Xiaoduo gently touched the skirt, cuffs, and hem of the flowers and butterfly auspicious cloud patterns. The pattern, I can’t put it down.
"Ahem, I chose the color, and my mother chose the material." Mu Rongjing saw that she liked it and said with a smile.
"This embroidery work and these stitches are the skills of the three embroiderers in Furong Pavilion, right?" Fahrenheit could tell at a glance.
Mu Rongjing smiled and nodded, mainly because her reaction was that she really liked it. Well, when she goes back, she must remember to bring her mother’s favorite walnut and red date cake.
After hearing what Hua Shi said, Hong Xiaoduo guessed that Furong Pavilion should be a famous embroidery workshop in the capital without asking.
Unexpectedly, Mu Rongjing's princess mother was so attentive to him.
"Your Majesty, thank the princess for me." Hong Xiaoduo said simply, but in his heart he was thinking about what he should give as a suitable gift in return.
As a princess, she has no shortage of good things. Otherwise, wait until she comes to Mu Rongjing to find out what her mother likes?
"Thank you. I'll tell her when I get back that you like these clothes, and she will be very happy. By the way, what's going on with you?" Mu Rongjing brought the topic back. , he wanted to know so much.
Hong Xiaoduo told him what happened. After that, he went to the back room to change to another one.
"Does your mother speak foreign languages?" Mu Rongjing asked Kaiyang in a low voice after watching Hua follow her into the back room.
Kaiyang nodded and wanted to say that my mother knew foreign languages and taught seven of them.
But after thinking about it, I don’t know what level I am studying now, and I dare not tell the prince that I can do it.
Hua Shi came out and took the one worn by Hong Xiaoduo among the clothes that Mu Rongjing brought.
Of the three sets of robes Master Wei brought back, only one suited them, which was enough. At the current temperature, if you don't do physical work, you won't sweat at all. It's no problem to wear one set of robes for a few days.
Hong Xiaoduo put on his own clothes, wearing loose bloomers, and felt strong no matter how he moved. After walking out of the inner room, I felt that the way Mu Rongjing looked at me was a little strange.
“Why, the prince still thinks it’s appropriate for me to wear a skirt?” Hong Xiaoduo asked jokingly.
Mu Rongjing shook his head and smiled: "No, I just didn't expect you to be so secretive and know foreign languages."
"I didn't expect it, hahaha, Your Majesty. If you want to go to a foreign country, take me with you and I will be your translator for free." Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile while hanging the soft whip and sword on the table on his waist.
It has become a habit to carry it with her, and the whip is actually a precaution. The capital is at the feet of the emperor, and she does not believe that it is the safest place. As for the sword, she will not use it unless she has to, but when she thinks about it, it is worth five thousand taels of gold. , then it is even more necessary to carry it with you.
It’s not that she doesn’t worry about the people in the Wei Mansion and the people in the Fu’an Hou Mansion, but she always feels that she is the kind of person who may leave at any time if an unexpected situation arises.
Now when she goes out, she must bring a purse, a soft whip, an ancient sword, and a three-piece suit. She feels like she is almost becoming obsessive in this regard.
"Xiao Duo, there are no outsiders here. Tell me the truth. This time you help the gift department. What price do you want from that person?" Mu Rongjing suddenly thought of a question and asked curiously. .
When Hong Xiaoduo heard this, he looked at him with some confusion and asked: "In your eyes, am I the kind of person who is greedy for money?"
Ahem "It's not that you're greedy for money, it just feels like you're deliberately robbing big businesses. But, you said, who else besides me thinks so?" Mu Rongjing said this, still a little worried, saying this to her, Will you be angry?
"My grandfather." Kaiyang said from the side.
Hong Xiaoduo pursed his lips and smiled: "I have shown you all this. You also said that you are a big family. What's wrong with me?"
Mu Rongjing said He gave her a thumbs up: "So, how much gold will be collected this time?"
"No, really not this time. This time it is for the face of our Fengliang country, how can we ask for payment. Of course. , he must be embarrassed if he gives me some reward afterwards!" Hong Xiaoduo said frankly.
Her words made everyone in the room laugh. The two adults, Hua Shi and Mu Rongjing, did not feel that she was being rebellious at all. Kaiyang covered her mouth and laughed.
Although he knew the ins and outs of the matter and knew that Hong Xiaoduo was not staying in the capital but working as an errand in the Ministry of Rites, Mu Rongjing was a little disappointed, but thinking about the foreign missions coming this time, it was not If she leaves in a day or two, the translator's voice will not get better immediately. At least she can stay in the capital for a few more days, which is better than leaving tomorrow.
Mu Rongjing is certain that Hong Xiaoduo is not someone who will miss the capital, and she doesn’t trust Tianshu and their six children either!
Besides, after Mr. Wei returned from giving the official robe of the Ministry of Rites as a gift, he returned to his staff department to prepare for handling some government affairs. Just as he was about to enter the door of the staff department, a petty official saw him and trotted over: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister Dong is inside. He came here specifically to find you."
"Why did he come to see me?" Mr. Wei muttered, then suddenly paused, and he could roughly guess who the person was. Intention.
Inseparable, she came for that girl Xiaoduo, and she couldn't possibly come for the grandson she accepted passively. After all, she was the one who helped Prime Minister Dong's youngest son get out of jail without charge. In other words, she is also the benefactor of Dong Xiang's family.
With psychological preparation, Mr. Wei raised his legs and entered the gate. He watched from a distance as Dong Xiang looked up at a calligraphy and painting on the wall, while several of his subordinates were all cautious. Doing things...
