Chapter 20
Seeing that she was not causing trouble, the governor sneered in his heart and continued to instruct the supervisors to hurry up.
They dare not neglect.
Butler Liang punished a group of servants and servants who were lazy, mischievous, and committed crimes in the mansion. There were more than thirty people in total. They did not dare to follow in his footsteps.
The next day, Zhumiao Yuan was completely sealed off.
Zhumiao Courtyard was originally the most remote northwest corner of Prince Liang's Mansion. Except for the courtyard gate, it was surrounded by walls on three sides. Now the walls of the courtyard have been built high and replaced with taller and thicker iron gates, and a big lock.
The courtyard door is locked from the outside.
The entire Zhumiao Courtyard is like a large prison cell, with four walls and only the sky above.
Mu Qingyu, the daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs, was never mentioned again.
After all, this so-called eldest daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs had never appeared in the circle of ladies before she came out of the cabinet. Even many people in the capital only knew Miss Mu Manqi of the Mu family and did not know that there were other daughters. The daughter of the late Madam Shangshu.
, who couldn't get on the stage and had to climb on the bed and forcefully climbed up to Liang Wang's people, it was rumored that the heat in the capital had long since passed.
No one came close to the closed Zhumiao Courtyard. Only Yue Xi occasionally glanced there, but unfortunately he didn't take a bite of the fragrant barbecue. That taste and aroma would never be there again.
King Liang's external statement was that the princess was in poor health and was resting peacefully in the palace.
Mu Mingyuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs, did not raise any questions, so naturally others would not care.
Everyone in Prince Liang's palace speculated that the woman in Zhumiao Courtyard was dead, and Prince Liang also issued a silence order, no one was allowed to mention Zhumiao Courtyard or that woman again.
When the news reached Bihua Pavilion, Mei Jingxue was the happiest.
She thought that if the obstacles were cleared, Chu Xinyuan would definitely marry her.
It was a pity that Chu Xinyuan was on an errand assigned by the emperor. He left early and returned late every day, so she didn't have many opportunities to see him.
This is the seventh day that Zhumiao Courtyard has been sealed. In the desolate and dilapidated courtyard surrounded by high walls, the vegetation is rustling. But in the courtyard reflected by the ruined walls, there is a new swing frame, with a man in blue sitting on it.
woman.
She was a woman with beautiful appearance and unparalleled elegance.
The clothes were made of ordinary materials, and the woman's body was pure and elegant, without any pearls. However, that gorgeous face was the best decoration. Even ordinary clothes were worn by her with a fairy-like air.
.
Mu Qingyu's demeanor was very leisurely, not as if she had been in isolation for seven days without eating or drinking.
She even had an old book in her hand that she found in an unknown room and was looking through it.
The sun was warm and shining on the swing. The woman looked calm and indifferent. The sun fell through the treetops, and in the sparse shadows, it seemed to give her a halo as she walked.
The swing frame is very simple. It is just a bench with its legs removed, and then tied with two ropes and hung on the tree. It is simple and simple, but because of the people sitting on it, it is a little more special out of thin air.
The yard has not yet been completely sorted out. There is an open space, a circle of grass, a vigorous old plum tree, and a row of bamboos. It is the coexistence of freshness and simplicity, desolation and exquisiteness.
Mu Qingyu, dressed in light blue clothes and reading quietly, made the place lively.
This feeling and scene are as poetic as picturesque.
The years are quiet and good, nothing more than that!
However, this calm was soon broken.
There were two "whoosh" sounds, and two people suddenly fell down in the empty small yard. Before their feet even touched the ground, their fists and feet were already fighting several times in the air.
When they landed, they were even more furious.
