Never divorce, never stop getting rich

Chapter 164 General Mu

"I'm sorry, but today is a big day for our family, and we're really too busy. It would be fine if this gift was given to our master, but we need to find someone to respond. We're too busy and don't have enough manpower..."

The doorman wiped the sweat from his forehead and tried to persuade the woman kindly. He said that seeing the bridal sedan coming in, even the king could not make trouble for this matter. This was a death order from the master. He did not want to be soft-hearted and take the money and then sell the woman to the master.

"Just reply to your master and tell him that we are the Grand Princess's men. We just need to pass on a message to General Mu and send him some gifts, and then we will leave immediately."

The two who came were both the Grand Princess's personal maids. Although they didn't say anything unpleasant, they were arrogant and not good people.

"That's really not possible. If you two have an invitation, you can go in and find someone yourself."

His son had already made it clear that anyone who came to see General Mu would be turned away unless they had an invitation from home. Their family was not well-off, so the guests they had invited were all close friends in the army, as well as some relatives in the capital, such as the princess. Most of them had left after sending gifts and dowries to the bride's family.

The two palace maids did not have an invitation and felt that the doorman was difficult to deal with, so they got angry and ordered the people they brought with them to take the doorman away.

"What are you doing!"

Princess Yongle had few friends before. Qian Qiansui was the friend and partner she pestered to make, and Linglan was an acquaintance of hers. Now that she saw someone trying to ruin Linglan's wedding, she couldn't help it and got off the carriage and scolded them.

The two maids knew Princess Yongle, and seeing her presence, they knew something was amiss. However, they still relied on the support of the Grand Princess and bowed before replying, "His Highness has sent us sisters to deliver a gift to General Mu, and to pass on a message to him. We will return after we are done, and Princess Yongle, please do not stop us."

"Where are your invitations?" Princess Yongle stopped everyone and the doorman hurried away to welcome the bride's sedan chair.

"We are just delivering the message, no invitation is needed." The two palace maids replied firmly.

"Then why don't you go look for someone at General Mu's mansion? Why are you running here? Fu Linglan is also a noble lady from the royal family. How can you say that a good marriage was ruined by two servants like you? How could you do such an unlucky thing? I now doubt that you were sent by my aunt. I'm afraid you have accepted someone's money to do something so disgraceful to a girl from the royal family."

Qian Qiansui sat in the carriage, looking out of the window, and he wanted to applaud Princess Yongle. It was no wonder that he had been with her for a long time, and he could talk nonsense at will.

"Princess Yongle, please don't be unreasonable. If this matter fails, and His Highness blames me..."

The two palace maids didn't want to say much, they just broke in today anyway.

Just as the people brought by the palace maid were about to break into the door, the bridal sedan chair landed and the groom got off his horse. General Mu did not want his friend's marriage to be overshadowed because of him, so he was about to go over alone, but was stopped by the groom.

"Brother Mu, the one who stopped them was Princess Yongle. The princess and my wife are good friends. It would be better for the royal family to deal with it now, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

How could the groom not know about the Grand Princess? His wife was almost sent to marry a foreign prince. The Grand Princess's actions here were disgusting. Now new and old grudges were piled up together. He wanted to go over and kill everyone, but he couldn't bear it at this time. Showing off his courage for a moment was definitely not a good idea.

General Mu looked at Princess Yongle's thin and petite figure, and the fact that she stopped a group of guards outside the gate, and he couldn't help but feel a liking for her.

He had heard a lot about the affair between his father and the Grand Princess from people around him, but he never imagined that after so many years, the arrogant Grand Princess still hadn't let it go.

He couldn't help but think of what his father had told him before he left, and he made up his mind.

"Who asked you to go over? What's the matter? The Grand Princess is a princess, but our Yongle is not a princess?" Qian Qiansui got off the carriage with his back straight, holding a black puppy in his arms, which looked soft and cute.

But the two palace maids who had been with the Grand Princess for many years could not help but step back.

"Madam Anshun, are you planning to intervene in this matter?"

"Stop talking nonsense to me. Why did my paper company arrest so many people before? You're trying to whitewash it. Even though I lost my husband, I'm not someone who can be bullied casually."

Qian Qiansui touched her waist casually. The cold metal and the smell of gunpowder made her feel very at ease.

"I hope you two won't regret it." The two palace maids knew Lais's ability, and saw that Princess Yongle's guards were slowly surrounding them not far away. If they continued to resist, they were afraid that they would lose the face of the Grand Princess, so they had to give up and leave for the time being.

"That's such a frivolous statement, as if that person will let us go if we don't get involved."

Qian Qiansui's voice was loud, and the two palace maids were so angry that they could only get in the car and leave quickly.

"The Mu and Guan armies at the border have become capable of standing on their own in recent years. Now that the young generals from both families have returned, I'm afraid my aunt won't be able to sleep well."

Having power and money does give you a say in the court, but if you want to hold on to your throne, military power is the most important thing. There were inevitable frictions between the six countries before. Although there were no major wars, the plunder of weak countries by strong countries would never stop.

Previously, due to the wars of the previous dynasty, the border of Tang State was almost half lost. After that, from the time when the previous emperor ascended the throne to the time when the empress assisted, the border was gradually recovered. In recent years, the border was able to fight back and forth with the armies of other countries.

Qian Qiansui also understood that the reason why these two armies were able to be pulled out from the border was closely related to the empress's secret support, which was also the basis for the empress to dominate the court in the future.

Therefore, General Mu must not get into any trouble in the capital.

Joy resurfaced as Fu Linglan was helped out of the sedan chair by the groom, stepped over the fire basin, and entered the mansion with the well wishes of everyone, about to start her new life.

Princess Yongle was very sorry that she could not go in to watch the ceremony, and now the Emperor summoned her and she had to go back quickly.

"Your Highness!"

When Princess Yongle and Qian Qiansui turned around, they saw a young man in a festive robe, standing straight and energetic. His facial features were deep and handsome, and he was truly a rare handsome man.

"You are……"

"My surname is Mu, and I would like to thank Your Highness for your help just now."

Qian Qiansui and Princess Yongle looked at each other, their eyes full of gossip.

"No need to be so polite. Linglan is my best friend. Her marriage must be perfect and happy. I will never let anyone ruin it."

General Mu was slightly stunned, then smiled and bowed, saying, "That was thanks to my sister-in-law, but the help from His Highness and Madam also helped me, and I will definitely repay you in the future."
