For a while, Murong Qingyu was so busy that she had no time to rest. For several days, she didn't see Murong Qingyu.
Early that morning, Murong Xiao, who was used to having her meals in her boudoir, was called to the kitchen by Murong Qingyu. Murong Yan and a few others were also called there.
Before the emperor's birthday, all officials had to send people to the royal temple to pray for the emperor. Generally, everyone would go half a month to a month in advance.
They are probably the only ones who cram at the last minute like this.
Since Murong Qingyu was responsible for the security of the capital, only Murong Qingyun and the five young ladies went to the royal temple, Wanshou Temple, to pray today.
Until the time she married Qian Yeming, it was very difficult for her to go out, which was why she asked Qian Yeming to plant the poisonous herbs in Wanshou Temple.
Because as far as she could remember, until she married Qian Yeming, she had only had this one chance to go out, and she certainly couldn't waste it.
The last time Murong Meng and the other two left the house quietly, the people outside being unaware. Today, Murong Qingyun led the incense-burning and blessing ceremony, which all five daughters of the Murong family were required to attend. Someone had leaked the news, but when Murong Xiao and the others left the house early in the morning, a large crowd of people had already gathered on the street to watch.
The Murong family is a powerful and well-established family. Marshal Murong not only commands 300,000 soldiers from the imperial court, but is also said to have a private army. Logically speaking, he is definitely one of the most prominent families in the imperial palace.
But before the eldest prince chose a concubine, each family rushed to offer their daughters, except for the Marshal's Mansion, where not a single daughter entered the palace.
From this point on, the Marshal's daughters became increasingly mysterious over time. There were even rumors that every daughter of the Marshal's daughter was as beautiful as a flower, like a banished immortal, and had been favored by the Divine Cult from a young age and adopted as a saint.
So when they heard that the five young ladies from the Marshal's Mansion had returned home and were going to Wanshou Temple to pray for the emperor, everyone rushed to witness the grace of the saints.
When the five daughters appeared at the door of the Marshal's Mansion at the same time, everyone was amazed.
Although the five young ladies were all wearing veils, it was not difficult to tell from their exquisite figures and beautiful dresses that the five young ladies were all stunning beauties.
Especially the eldest lady who was in the lead, she was specially protected by the young master of the Marshal's Mansion all the way. Although only her eyes were exposed, those beautiful eyes like autumn waves were enough to shock people.
The opportunity to show up was only a brief moment, but the entire capital city was in an uproar in an instant.
On ordinary days, we often see the daughters of civil officials and military generals, but when a mysterious daughter like this finally shows up and covers her face with a veil, the more she covers herself, the more people talk about her.
Everyone speculated that if the daughters returned to the capital at this time, they would definitely outshine all the other beauties and shine brightly at the emperor's birthday banquet.
Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is frail and sickly, he has not yet appointed a concubine. The daughter of the Marshal's Mansion is probably reserved specifically for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Furthermore, among the envoys from various countries who went to the capital this time, there were many princes from other countries. The Grand Marshal probably wanted to marry off all five of his daughters during this birthday banquet, with the idea of not making a splash but staying silent.
The carriage moved slowly. The Marshal's Mansion was located on the outskirts of the city, not far from Wanshou Mountain.
