She immediately smiled and said, "This is just right, since you can skate, Qi Qing, you might as well find a chance—"
"Sister Muzhen."
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Qiqing interrupted her and said, "Let's talk about this matter later. It's getting late, we should go back earlier."
After speaking, he turned and walked forward.
Si Muzhen frowned.
For Gu Qiqing's "fake prudence", she really had nowhere to show her anger, but she couldn't lose her temper in front of King Wei, so she could only smile and look back at Zhu Chengxuan, and said with a smile: "This sister Minnv is In this way, if you are shy, you will not speak well."
"..."
Zhu Chengxuan was stunned for a moment.
He subconsciously looked at Gu Qiqing who was walking in front, and sure enough, the tips of her ears were slightly red, as if she was really shy.
It seemed that he had just ventured in by himself.
Originally, encouraging Xinping to ask her to ask the concubine to call Gu Qiqing into the palace, and then let Xinping take her to the imperial garden, these actions were a bit excessive. As a famous lady, she naturally couldn't be too casual.
However, the more this happened, the more respect he had for this girl in his heart.
Although he was still young, even his father and mother didn't consider his marriage, but when he was walking around, there were quite a few official women who took the opportunity to join him.
Some even resorted to a lot of tricks.
This Gu Qiqing, on the other hand, is generous and neither humble nor overbearing.
Seeing her like this, Zhu Chengxuan's smile deepened, and he only said, "Let's go back to Yikun Palace first."
Looking at the smile in his eyes, Si Muzhen felt that her goal seemed to have been achieved.
Without saying much, the group continued to walk towards Yikun Palace.
When they arrived at Yikun Palace, Nan Yan was a little surprised. She didn't expect that it was King Wei who sent them back, so she said with a smile, "Why did Your Highness come here?"
She saluted in the Wei Dynasty, and then said, "Your Majesty, we met in the Imperial Garden just now."
"Yeah."
Nan Yan looked at him, then at Gu Qiqing.
The mood of the children immediately fell into her eyes.
She smiled calmly, and then said: "Please trouble Your Highness King Wei."
"Don't dare."
Nan Yan laughed again and said: "It's getting late, Qi Qing, you should go back after eating in the palace. Your Highness will stay with you?"
When Zhu Chengxuan heard this, his eyes lit up with joy.
Just as he was about to agree, he heard Gu Qiqing say: "My lord, forgive me, it's getting late, Qi Qing still wants to go back earlier."
When she said this, several people were depressed.
Especially Si Muzhen, she immediately said: "Qi Qing, the imperial concubine is staying with us, how can you refuse? This is a crime."
Gu Qiqing glanced at her, then carefully looked at Nanyan, and said softly, "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand."
"..."
"Qi Qing just felt that it was too late."
"..."
"Looking at the weather, I'm afraid it's going to snow."
Nan Yan looked at her, and then at Zhu Chengxuan who was a bit depressed, and she only smiled and said, "Don't worry too much, I won't be angry for such a trivial matter. You are right, it will snow soon It's too late, and the carriage will not be easy to leave if it is later. Then you all go back."
"Thank you ma'am."
Gu Qiqing bowed to her, and Nanyan asked Aunt Tongyun and Nianqiu to send them out.
Watching them leave, Nan Yan looked away, and then looked at the somewhat reluctant King Wei who was still looking at their backs, smiling.
"Does Your Highness want to stay for dinner?"
Zhu Chengxuan hurriedly turned around.
He was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know if his embarrassment fell in front of the noble concubine, but he said immediately: "Then, I will disturb the empress."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Say something polite."
With that said, he sent someone to pass on the meal.
During the meal, Zhu Chengxuan was still protecting his sister Xinping, and took whatever the sister wanted, while Nanyan sat by the side, looking at their brothers and sisters, smiling.
There were slight ripples in my heart.
She knew Si Muzhen's thoughts at a glance, and the whole thing was going according to her thoughts, but she didn't expect such an episode to happen suddenly.
King Wei seemed to have some interest in Qi Qing.
All in all, the two are about the same age, similar in temperament, and Qi Qing's family background is sufficient, it can be regarded as a match made in heaven.
But-
Nan Yan was silent for a while, then suddenly said with a smile: "I haven't seen Wei Wang come out to play for a while during the Chinese New Year. Are you so busy every day?"
Zhu Chengxuan smiled cautiously: "It's my mother who asked me to study more and practice martial arts."
"oh… "
"The queen mother is also for my own good."
"Of course, it's good that His Highness understands the painstaking efforts of the empress."
The two had just spoken a few words, Zhu Chengxuan's hand moved a little slower, and Xin Ping, who had nothing in his mouth, started to fuss. He hurriedly coaxed him, and stuffed another piece of meat into his sister's mouth, and then he calmed down.
Nan Yan sat beside him and smiled.
But in my heart, I was already faintly worried.
This matter, I am afraid that I have to pass the test of the empress, I don't know how Xu Miaoyin arranged for Wei Wang's marriage.
You can only take one step and see one step.

When the three people in Yikun Palace were eating together affectionately, Chonghua Palace was gloomy and cold.
Gao Yurong told Concubine Hui Wu Wan everything about her encounter with Si Muzhen at the gate of the imperial study.
Emphatically reproduced "the words of the imperial concubine".
When Wu Wan heard this, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she said coldly, "What you said is true?"
Gao Yurong hurriedly said: "How dare the concubine lie to the empress?"
"..."
"This is what her own sister said, so it can't be made up."
"..."
"Besides, when Feng Qianyan fell from power before, she once accused the empress in front of the emperor and the noble concubine. Although the noble concubine didn't care about it, but thinking about it, she only wanted to trip Feng Qianyan at that time, and she didn't want to cause trouble."
"..."
"But she may not have ignored Feng Qianyan's words."
Wu Wan's face became colder and colder.
After a while, she gritted her teeth and said with a ferocious face: "If she really wants to attack me, then I don't have to be soft on her."
"..."
"She shouldn't think that stepping on Feng Qianyan can do anything to Bengong."
"..."
"This palace is not as easy to deal with as Feng Qianyan."
"..."
"It's not like her. It's just a foreigner who has no official position. Even his uncle is just an ordinary cabinet minister."
Hearing her words, Gao Yurong's heart moved slightly.
This time she also heard that the Duke suddenly returned to the capital, and when he went to the Taimiao to worship the little princess, he was stopped by the imperial concubine.
It seems that something happened that she didn't know.
So, he asked softly: "Your Majesty, it's the Duke—do you have any actions?"
