Chapter 120: Re-wedding Banquet

The eldest princess was confused and scoffed, "Xin'er, why did you fall down on such a flat ground? Did you overexert yourself last night?"

Xiaolan stepped forward and helped Hu Xiner up.

When he looked at the prince again, he frowned, looking worried, and asked, "What's wrong? Did you fall? Do you want to see a doctor?"

"No need." Hu Xin'er didn't dare to look at him.

Seeing that she was able to move without any problems, the princess smiled and took her hand: "It seems that I will have to support you wherever you go from now on. After all, your lack of strength is also due to me."

"Yue'er, you are already a grown-up girl, so don't be so blunt when speaking." The prince acted like a good brother.

Hu Xiner knew that given the prince's usual image, if she told others how terrifying he had just been, no one would believe her.

She firmly believed that she was not mistaken, the prince had two faces in front of and behind people.

But knowing that the eldest princess was very protective of the prince, he did not mention it to her.

It was in the subsequent conversation that he seemed silent.

The eldest princess noticed her strangeness and thought she was just not letting go, so she smiled and said to the prince, "Brother Prince, please go and do something else first. We still need to continue shopping."

"Okay." The prince agreed with a smile.

But after the two of them left, he looked at Hu Xiner's back meaningfully.

Hu Xin'er turned around as if realizing something and asked, "Where is he going?"

"I should go and pay my respects to my father, the emperor, and my mother, the empress, first, and then go find Mu Qing and the others."

The eldest princess had a very good relationship with the crown prince and was very happy to see him. She teased Hu Xin'er, "Stinky girl, isn't my crown prince really handsome? Don't think I don't know that you're just pretending to be a lady in front of my crown prince!"

"What are you talking about?" Hu Xiner was a little annoyed.

"Yes, he's still a bit inferior to your husband." The princess walked out with a smile, "Tell me, where do you want to go?"

"I don't want to go shopping anymore." Hu Xiner always felt that there was something wrong with the prince.

She really wanted to meet Mu Qing now and tell him everything.

The eldest princess stopped in her tracks, a little unhappy. "Why do I feel like you've become strange since you met the Crown Prince?"

"You're overthinking it." Hu Xin'er shook her sleeves. "Let's go meet Mu Qing and see what their workplace looks like, okay?"

The eldest princess' temper came and went quickly, and she immediately attracted attention.

She showed a lewd smile: "Hehe~ It's only been a short time, and you miss him already~"

"No, you're overthinking it!" Hu Xin'er's face was a little hot. "And don't you want to know what the assassin revealed?"

"Hehe." The eldest princess didn't believe her nonsense at all, "If you say so, then so be it."

"Then let's go." Hu Xin'er didn't know the way and urged, "Let's go, let's go. If we're late, we won't be able to make it to the interrogation site. You didn't even take me with you when you interrogated the assassin last time!"

All the palace maids and eunuchs had strange expressions on their faces. They liked to watch people being interrogated. What kind of strange hobby was this?

The eldest princess showed an expression of seeing through everything: "Okay, then I will accompany you to see if your husband will be exhausted and collapse at the interrogation site!"

Because of her overly proactive behavior, Hu Xiner was teased by the princess all the way. She couldn't tell her the real reason directly, so she stepped on the princess in anger!

"Ah! Hu Xin'er, I'll kill you! These are my most beloved pearl-embroidered shoes!"

Hu Xiner started running until she was stopped at the gate of Dali Temple, and then she stopped panting.

Mu Qing naturally couldn't really receive the princess and his wife in a gloomy and dark cell.

Fortunately, the Dali Temple also has rooms to receive foreign guests.

He had been interrogating the assassin for so long that some fatigue inevitably showed on his face.

Hu Xin'er felt a little distressed: "Are you tired?"

"I'm not tired anymore when I see you." Mu Qing smiled gently.

Hu Xin'er's face flushed. She didn't know why, but even though they had only been apart for a while, when they met again, the two of them couldn't wait to stick together.

Just when the eldest princess couldn't help but want to destroy the atmosphere.

Someone came to see Mu Qing again.

"Is my son Lu Yunjue really in here?" There were hurried footsteps outside.

The door was pushed open, and a beautiful woman in a dark green dress looked around. When she saw Mu Qing, she burst into tears.

"Son, my son!"

Without saying anything, Hu Xiner knew that this was Lu Yunjue's mother who came to recognize her relatives.

The eldest princess told her the information about Lu's mother.

Mother Lu came from a Hanlin family, a typical scholarly family, with soft features, a noble and gentle temperament.

Because Lu Yunjue had been in danger before, everyone in the capital thought he was dead.

Seeing her son who had "come back from the dead", Lu's mother cried with joy.

She staggered forward, hugged Mu Qing and cried, "It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay! My son, you are my sweetheart!"

Mu Qing felt a little awkward and was held stiffly by Lu's mother.

Mother Lu loved her son dearly, so she pinched his body and asked him if he was hurt anywhere.

Mu Qing frowned and stepped out of Lu's mother's arms: "I'm fine, I'm not hurt."

Mother Lu was startled and looked carefully at the expression on Mu Qing's face.

No one knows a son better than his mother. After just one encounter, she could sense the change in her son's temperament.

But his features and figure clearly showed that he was his own son!

After all, she was the mistress of the prime minister's mansion. Unlike those country women, when she saw her son, she would only talk about her love and affection and let her emotions control her reason.

Hu Xin'er quickly came out to explain, "Mrs. Lu, Lu Yunjue suffered a head injury, so his memory is confused and he can't remember many things."

"I see." Mother Lu was relieved and stepped forward to touch Mu Qing's head. "Have you asked a famous doctor to treat you?"

"Why didn't he look for him? He drove them all away himself." The eldest princess enjoyed watching the fun, as she still remembered that her kindness was not rewarded.

"This child has been stubborn since childhood. It's hard for the princess." Mother Lu smiled apologetically.

The eldest princess rolled her eyes. "He did have a bad temper after losing his memory, but it didn't bother me that much. It was the girl next to me who was troubled!"

"Oh? You are..." Mother Lu asked about Hu Xiner's identity.

"I..." Hu Xin'er was stuck.

Because the two got married in the countryside, they did not formally report it to the government, and even if they did, Mu Qing's identity information would be inaccurate.

There was no matchmaker or engagement, and Hu Xiner didn't know whether she should tell him or not.

Mu Qing introduced her generously: "This is my wife, Hu Xin'er."

"What?" Mother Lu was extremely shocked. "The Hu family? Whose daughter is this?"

Hu Xiner was a little panicked, worried that since Lu's mother came from a wealthy family, she might be picky about her, a country girl.

Unexpectedly, Mother Lu was so happy that she even wanted to hold a wedding banquet for the two of them in Beijing!
