Chapter seven hundred and seventy-ninth palace
Mu Ming and the other two were not interested in strolling. Li Qin was afraid that the imperial doctor would have bad intentions, so she pulled Mu Ming away. Mu Ming was worried about Shi Jing's affairs and no longer had much interest in this place.
For some reason, these things may be novel to others, but after seeing them, Mu Ming felt ordinary. It seemed that he had seen more of such things. Of course, this was just a feeling.
However, the two did not go home immediately, but wandered around the snow clan's fiefdom. The area here is extremely wide. On weekdays, they would be near Tai Academy, but now they are wandering around and playing around.
There was heavy snow, but there were many pedestrians. There were many such people as Mu Ming. Most of them were young men and women. There were many famous places and historical sites in the Snow Tribe. However, the most worthy of view was the ice sculptures that could be seen everywhere, especially in the twelfth lunar month, which had the most sights.
The people of the Snow Clan have a profound cultivation of ice and snow, so even the ordinary people in the clan are obsessed with the carving of ice sculptures, as if this artistic conception is engraved in the bones.
Mu Ming saw a group of people carving something in the distance, so he took Li Qin over. After a while, Li Qin pulled Mu Ming to those people.
Li Qin paid ten taels of silver to ask a person from the Snow Clan to carve two portraits. The wooden name was interesting, so she got off on a bench. Li Qin sat next to her without feeling cold. The person from the Xue Clan opposite looked at the two of them from time to time and carved them carefully.
Soon, two lifelike portraits appeared in front of you, and the eyebrows were extremely similar.
Li Qin was quite satisfied and gestured at Mu Ming. Mu Ming said, "It's not impossible to move back, but if you break your hands and feet, it will be troublesome."
Li Qin had no choice but to give up and gesture to the snow clan people a few times. The man seemed to have understood what she meant and said, "Send it to the snow pool, which is cold all year round, and many people will put their statues there!"
As he said that, he pointed to the distance and said, "You are following them..."
Mu Ming picked up two portraits more than half a foot tall with his bare hands and walked to the distance with Li Qin.
A huge lake appeared in front of me, but the lake had no water, only snowflakes, countless snowflakes accumulated, but it seemed that the lake could never be filled.
There are ice sculptures, some are portraits, some are flowers, and even swords.
Mu Ming chose a place and put down the ice sculpture. The two looked at it for a while before leaving.
I was traveling all the way, like snow was tirelessly falling everywhere, and it was white. This place was more like an ordinary world. Small merchants were on both sides of the street. There were no magical powers or magic tricks when we came here. Even monks would restrain their breath and seemed to be trying their best to integrate into it.
When the weather gradually darkened, Mu Ming returned home with a large bag of bags and Li Qin. She gained a lot. The fights were all made by Li Qin, and she bought them all for food, clothes, and even some other unknown wooden names.
After the two parted, Mu Ming returned home, but my father also came back. Mu Ming felt strange and had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, when Mr. Zhang saw Mu Ming, the first sentence was not an ordinary greeting, but a question directly: "Tomorrow, have you entered the palace today?"
The name of the wood is strange, but I guessed it a little bit.
Mrs. Zhang looked a little uneasy, but just looked at Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Zhang nodded as a comfort.
"Concubine Wan named your name, and I'm wondering. Why do she know how to do medical skills? Thanks to your Uncle Li greeting me, otherwise there would be some trouble." Mr. Zhang said, his face a little gloomy.
Mu Ming said: "Concubine Wan?"
Looking at Mu Ming’s doubt, Mr. Zhang said, “I’m considered a newcomer in the palace, but I have never had a child in my stomach. It happened that the Majesty was lucky some time ago, so there was a movement. However, it seemed that an assassin was assassinated, so he was moved. Most of the imperial doctors in the palace had been sent out. Now the people on duty in the palace are half-baked, so they dare not take any treatment…”
Mu Ming interrupted: "It's just about safeguarding the fetus, so it won't be so troublesome, right?"
Mr. Zhang sighed lightly, but Mrs. Zhang said, "My son, you are still young. You don't understand the struggle in the palace. It seems silent, but it is often bloody. How can the assassin enter the palace? It's just something that other concubines do."
Mrs. Zhang shook her head, as if she thought she shouldn't have done this, and said, "It's all women, why bother to make things difficult for women? It's just that if you want to survive in the palace, you have to do this. Otherwise, you'll wait for no one to swallow it alive!"
The name of the wood is silenced, without words, just feels incredible, is the human heart so complicated?
"This is life in the palace. Today, Concubine Wan was looking for the imperial doctor, and those imperial doctors dared not go, but kept ruling. That was not a serious illness, but Concubine Wan didn't dare to believe them, and those people didn't dare to take action, for fear of being silenced. I heard that many imperial doctors had been filled with dry wells before!" Mr. Zhang added: "Today, the bastard actually recommended you to Concubine Wan, saying that you have unparalleled medical skills. Concubine Wan sent someone to inquire. It was my son, and he was relieved. This time, it was really a disaster!"
Mu Ming apologized, "It was the child's fault. I didn't expect to save someone but caused so many troubles..." Mu Ming was helpless at this time. The palace was really sinister, but Mu Ming looked at Mr. Zhang and said, "Dad, can you push me?"
Mr. Zhang shook his head, "You can't push it. We have to see it anyway. Although my father is afraid of trouble, those people dare not touch us for the time being!"
Mr. Zhang held his breath and said, "I never thought it would be safe and stable when I got back here. There are too many people watching this chief clerk. Sooner or later, there will be troubles to come. It's better if I come now."
Mu Ming said: "Who is behind Concubine Wan?"
Mr. Zhang took out a book and handed it to Mu Ming. Mu Ming took it for a moment and said, "Is the branch of the Jin clan? No wonder they can enter the palace. They control the crystal mines, and are they attracted by the imperial clan?"
Mr. Zhang nodded and said, "But I don't know how many women the Jin tribe sends to the palace every year. I think this is probably done by those of the Jin tribe. After all, they represent different interests!"
"I don't think it's true. I heard that the emperor and empress have been in charge of the harem for many years, and not many princes born in the harem have survived. Could it be her?" Mrs. Zhang interrupted, and when she heard this, both father and son were silent.
"It's really possible..." Mr. Zhang finally sighed lightly and said, "Don't worry tomorrow. Doing things depends on your original intention. Tomorrow, if you take you to the palace, you can just do it according to your will. Don't pay attention to it. If you deal with other fathers, it really doesn't work, let's go back to Long County!"
Mu Ming was moved and nodded, without saying much.
Immediately, Mr. Zhang asked about the place where Mu Ming was today. Mrs. Zhang served the food, and the family started eating and stopped mentioning the previous incident.
"Dad, who is the imperial doctor?" After almost the meal, Mu Ming asked.
"That man is a guest minister and has no power, otherwise he wouldn't have done this." Mr. Zhang said coldly, obviously dissatisfied with the imperial physician, and said, "I'll think of a way to get out of here, but I dare to attack my son!"
Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "You will talk nonsense. If you really make up your mind, you will not be driven away at the beginning!"
Mr. Zhang looked unhappy, and Mrs. Zhang said in surprise: "What's wrong?"
"The Zhang family came to send me a letter and asked me to go through the mansion!" Mr. Zhang did not lose his temper because of his temperament, but thought of something, and his face was a little unnatural.
"Don't go!" Mrs. Zhang spoke directly, Mu Ming was surprised, but she didn't say much.
Mr. Zhang nodded and said, "There are people from the Zhang family in the Ministry of Revenue, but it seems that they are guilty of corruption and want me to deal with it, but how can I decide this matter!"
"I heard that they were stripped out of the center, and even ordinary clerks and officials were gone. This is strange!" Mrs. Zhang heard about something from Mrs. Li, and she also said it.
"What happened in the court? It angered the emperor and involved the palace affairs, so naturally there would be no good ending. The Zhang family is not a big clan, but only acted as a representative of the water race in charge of ordinary affairs. However, after the decline of the Zhang family, the branches were even more unscrupulous and tried to get involved in the interests of the water race, which led to a disaster..." Mr. Zhang seemed unwilling to say more, so he picked up a chopstick dish for Mu Ming and said, "Li Mo's child is going to get married. What his father said today is that he is the daughter of the magistrate of Wu County, and the county magistrate of the imperial capital, but he is a match with them."
"Once upon a time, did you like this?" Mrs. Zhang glanced and said, "I didn't see you disliked my identity at the beginning, but why did you do this today? Did you care about it at the beginning and think that the family was not in line with each other?"
"Haha, what the lady said? All I heard in the palace these days, I couldn't help but have some conspiracy in my heart!" Mr. Zhang shook his head and smiled, not talking about this anymore.
"Tomorrow, do you think it can cure that girl Qin'er's mouth disease?" Mr. Zhang seemed to have thought of something.
Mu Ming said: "Yes, but she seems to disagree, so it will be left alone!"
Upon hearing this, the couple were both surprised, but didn't say much. Finally, Mrs. Zhang said, "Let her go!"
