The embarrassment just now was swept away in an instant, and Mu Mingtang immediately stood up and walked back quickly.
Mu Mingtang almost ran into the dormitory with a skirt behind him. Xie Xuanji stood up and wanted to say something, but he didn't have time to say something, so he watched as Mu Mingtang immediately dropped everything, turned and ran inside.
It seems that everyone around and everything is in vain, only Xie Xuanchen wakes up is the most important.
Xie Xuanji stood on the ground, in a dilemma, not knowing whether to talk as usual or pretend that nothing happened.
Mu Mingtang hurried to the dormitory. There were always few people in the dormitory. If Mu Mingtang was not there, no maid would dare to come in. This is the case now. There was a circle of maids around the door. They seemed to be relieved when they saw Mu Mingtang coming back, and they all saluted, "Princess Princess."
Mu Mingtang responded casually, passed them, and walked into the door. Behind the screen, Xie Xuanchen really sat up, and Mu Mingtang held his arm very naturally, helped him stand up, and asked, "You woke up so early today?"
"Well." Xie Xuanchen nodded casually and glanced out, "Is there someone outside?"
"Yes. Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei are here." Mu Mingtang helped him sit down, and then folded back to get clothes from the cage. She wore a long crimson dress today, with a bright blue big-sleeved shirt on it. When she turned around, the robe was spun into a small circle, like frost falling on hibiscus and snow hitting peonies.
Mu Mingtang didn't want to see Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei's true love show close, but now that Xie Xuanchen woke up, she was completely out of the mind to deal with it. Mu Mingtang took out the clothes that Xie Xuanchen was going to wear from the cage, and waved to the maid without looking back: "My lord is awake, it's not good to keep the guests waiting for a long time, you go out and tell King Jin and Princess Jin that I am here. If you can't get away, please go back first."
The maid responded and walked out lightly. Mu Mingtang walked to Xie Xuanchen with his clothes in his arms and motioned for him to reach out.
Xie Xuanchen stretched out his arm, put it into his long sleeves, turned around and asked, "Why are they here?"
"I'm here to give you peace." Mu Mingtang pouted slightly, walked around to Xie Xuanchen, and stood on tiptoe to fasten the hidden buttons around his collar.
The two of them were getting dressed, and the maid who had just reported the letter came back, standing at the door with her hands tied together, looking like she had something to say. Mu Mingtang was tidying up the folds on Xie Xuanchen's collar, and he glanced at the maid out of the corner of his eyes, and asked curiously, "Why are you back?"
"Wangfei Wang, the King of Jin said that his trip was originally to say goodbye to the lord, but now that the lord is awake, it would be too rude for him to leave without telling him. Therefore, the king of Jin said that he wanted to see the lord in person and greet the lord's condition."
Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "You have to see me with your own eyes, do you see me dead?"
Mu Mingtang really didn't expect Xie Xuanji to be so persistent. She clearly ordered the expulsion, but Xie Xuanji refused to leave. Mu Mingtang was speechless, and when he heard Xie Xuanchen's words, he immediately raised his head and glared at him: "In the early morning, you are not allowed to say such unlucky words."
After Mu Mingtang stared at Xie Xuanchen, he turned his head and instructed the maid: "Your Highness has just woken up, I'm afraid you will have to wait for a while. King Jin probably still has business affairs, don't bother King Jin waiting for a long time, let King Jin go back first. , please come back next time before it's too late."
The maid went out with her head down. After a while, she came back and said, "King Jin said it's okay, the princess doesn't have to worry, he will wait outside slowly."
Xie Xuanchen laughed softly, and his voice was not kind. Mu Mingtang was speechless and said, "Okay, since King Jin has to wait, I can't stop it. Then please ask King Jin and Princess Jin to sit outside for a while."
Xie Xuanchen heard the raised eyebrows, lowered his head and said, "Who said I want to see him?"
Mu Mingtang glared at him and said, "My younger brother came to greet you on a special trip, and I've been waiting outside for a long time. Is there any reason why we can't see you behind closed doors?"
Xie Xuanchen looked down at Mu Mingtang, suddenly laughed, and there was no emotion in his voice: "I refuse people, but I never care about the other side. You don't hesitate to drag me out to see him for a while? It's a pity that I am in your name. My husband, I am here, I am afraid it will hinder the communication between the two of you."
Mu Mingtang also laughed and said, "Actually, I did this to test whether you and your old acquaintance are connected and unforgettable."
"What old acquaintance, what does she have to do with me?"
"Then he has nothing to do with me!" Mu Mingtang gave Xie Xuanchen a fierce look, and deliberately squeezed Xie Xuanchen's belt, "If you talk nonsense again, I will strangle you, and then go to remarry with ten thousand dowry! Oh yes! , before I leave, I have to evacuate your palace."
It was Xie Xuanchen who said to let her remarry, but now that Mu Mingtang threw the words back, Xie Xuanchen was blocked. Seeing that Xie Xuanchen was speechless, Mu Mingtang could figure out the anger in his heart. She relaxed the strength of her hands and properly tied the belt: "I used to exist for him, but he personally pulled me and married me to you, and my relationship with him will naturally be cut off. Even if there is, it is The relatives that exist because of you. I made my own decision just now not for him, but for you. You are good-looking, fair-skinned, tall and well-framed. Of course, you have to take it out to look good for me. "
After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, he put his hands around Xie Xuanchen's waist in disbelief: "It's true, your waist is so thin!"
Xie Xuanchen was caught off guard when he heard Mu Mingtang blowing such a large amount of praise, and he was a little embarrassed at first, but he was suddenly wrapped around his waist by Mu Mingtang, surprised and funny: "Let go, don't move your feet."
The maids outside the house lowered their heads and dared not watch the interaction between the prince and the princess. When they heard the sound of laughter in the room and the vague "Don't move your feet", their heads dropped even lower, and they became more afraid to look at them.
However, why is it the prince who speaks
Mu Mingtang looked at Xie Xuanchen's waist and couldn't help making a gesture on his own waist, but it turned out to be even more sad and angry. Mu Mingtang still wanted to touch it, but Xie Xuanchen grabbed it. Mu Mingtang gritted his teeth and whispered, "Why don't you have any meat on your waist?"
This question was strange, Xie Xuanchen's eyes couldn't help falling on Mu Mingtang's waist tied with the Chaoyun Flower and Bird Ribbon. Mu Mingtang would say this, presumably she has meat on her waist. But it looks slender and slender, if it is not hard, what will it feel like
Xie Xuanchen is not as thick-skinned as Mu Mingtang. He was really embarrassed to touch it, so he could only give Mu Mingtang a face: "If you have something to say, don't do it."
Mu Mingtang said this like a rogue, Mu Mingtang was also embarrassed, and glared at him: "Who did it?"
"Yo, was that when I grabbed your hand and put it up just now?"
Obviously normal things, after Xie Xuanchen said it, became more and more strange. Mu Mingtang hurriedly glanced at the maids outside the door. The maids looked down at the ground, as if they had not heard anything. Mu Mingtang glared at Xie Xuanchen awkwardly, pulled him to sit down, motioned him to bow his head, and cooperated with her to wear the crown.
Because Xie Xuanchen was wearing dark blue today, Mu Mingtang chose a silver crown and fixed it with white jade in the middle. After finishing her hair, Mu Mingtang took the mirror for Xie Xuanchen to look at, and she was very satisfied: "It's really good-looking. You are so good-looking, you should go out and harm people. It's a waste to stay in the room all day."
Xie Xuanchen just glanced in the mirror and didn't bother to look at it, but he couldn't help laughing when he heard Mu Mingtang's words. He seemed to laugh easily after he found out that he knew Mu Mingtang. A few years ago, when he saw everyone, he thought he was an idiot, and even when he was at his best, he was not a laughing person.
Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei waited in the outer hall for a long time. Jiang Mingwei also accumulated a lot of things in her house, and really didn't want to waste time with Mu Mingtang. But she showed her intention to leave several times, but Xie Xuanji scolded her back with a cold face.
"Rude, brother and sister-in-law haven't come out yet, how can we retire first?"
"However, Princess An has been in for a long time. There are a lot of things accumulated in the palace. The palace is waiting for a reply, and I have to go to Mrs. Zhao's appointment in the afternoon. I really don't have time to wait for Princess An here. Anyway, it's in the neighboring palace, so I might as well talk to my sister-in-law. Apologise and come back another day?"
"How can this be done." Xie Xuanji vetoed, "filial piety comes first, even if there is a big matter, you have to give in in front of Lunchang, let alone, it's just a matter of waiting."
Filial piety, what is filial piety! Jiang Mingwei is really angry. She is not Mu Mingtang's daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law, but her brothers are equals, so who should they be honored? There are many things piled up in the Jin Palace, the servants are waiting to make up their minds, and the Queen is also waiting for her to answer! If she went back late and couldn't finish today's affairs, wouldn't she be scolded by the queen in a hurry
But Xie Xuanji was determined to be good to his younger brother. Even if Jiang Mingwei was so anxious, she could only wait with Xie Xuanji at this moment. Jiang Mingwei looked inside frequently, just when she could hardly sit still, there was movement in the room.
The maids lifted the curtains and said hello one after another. Jiang Mingwei breathed a sigh of relief and stood up quickly: "Second brother, second sister-in-law is good. My concubine greets my brother."
On the contrary, Xie Xuanji stood up after half a beat.
It wasn't because of Xie Xuanji's slow response. In fact, when Xie Xuanji saw Xie Xuanchen, he was really surprised.
Yesterday, Mrs. Jiang brought Jiang Mingwei to Prince An's Mansion, but Xie Xuanji never came with him. Therefore, Xie Xuanji's impression of Xie Xuanchen was still on the day of his wedding.
That day, Xie Xuanchen was frantic and hurt, his hair was messy, and he looked like a madman. After that, Xie Xuanchen fainted from exhaustion, and was lying on the bed crookedly sick, with no resistance. So in Xie Xuanji's impression, Xie Xuanchen either has chains, or is in a state of madness, or is sick, anyway, is a lunatic.
Today's clean and noble appearance is really beyond Xie Xuanji's expectations. Seeing Xie Xuanchen walking slowly like this, Xie Xuanji seemed to instantly return to when he was just taken to Tokyo. At that time, he had just left his hometown and town, and suddenly he fell into the atmosphere of the emperor in the capital, and he was conceited and inferior. In the eyes of Xie Xuanji at the time, the guards who connected and sent them were all majestic and only seen in his life.
But these people are just the caregivers of the Xie residence. In the Xie Mansion, Xie Xuanji saw the unimaginable gold and jade in the hall, saw the mighty general who could only be described in books - his uncle Xie Yi, and also saw his cousin, who was raised with top power and was born with Xie Xuanchen, who is the focus of the crowd.
Chen, Xingchen, Beichen also, even the name is more noble than his. That day, Xie Xuanchen was wearing armor, walking with wind, and followed many people behind him. The housekeeper behind Xie Xuanji called "Second Young Master", and then quickly introduced the identities of Xie Rui and Xie Xuanji and his son. Xie Xuanchen finally nodded slightly to them.
At that time, when Xie Xuanchen came to him, it was the same as today, the background was full of brocade, surrounded by clouds, and Xie Xuanchen was noble and cold, high in the clouds, and disdain to glance at the world.
That was the first time Xie Xuanji saw Xie Xuanchen. Later, Xie Xuanji went with his father to pick up Jiang Mingwei's family, and happened to meet Xie Xuanchen at the city gate again. At that time, he deliberately called "Second Brother" in order to show off with his childhood playmates. But Xie Xuanchen's very casual glance undoubtedly hurt him.
Xie Xuanji realized very clearly that between him and Xie Xuanchen, it was like everything around him. He was crammed into the crowded crowd, unable to move an inch, but Xie Xuanchen was aloof, and all of a sudden, he rode to the extreme, making it impossible for anyone to catch up.
Later, the status of their family gradually rose, Xie Xuanji appeared on more and more occasions, and he finally gradually became famous in the capital. But at that time, Xie Xuanchen was already famous all over the world, and even the aliens who were far away from the customs, did not know Chinese characters and did not understand Chinese, but they must understand the three words "Xie Xuanchen".
Not only Shengliang He Shengyu, it turns out that there was a person in the same generation who was so bright that it really made others breathless.
It was not until Xie Xuanchen fell that Xie Xuanji could finally show his light and heat. Over the years, Xie Xuanji has been the prince born directly in the capital, the virtuous king praised by everyone, and the emperor's most optimistic son. He rides the wind and waves and does everything smoothly. He could hardly remember what the son of the arrogant and inferior town official looked like.
However, at this moment, Xie Xuanchen came slowly in a brocade robe, and the feeling of the gap instantly grabbed Xie Xuanji.
Time has changed everything, the emperor has become Xie Rui, Xie Xuanji has cultivated the noble spirit of the capital, and the officials in the court have turned upside down, but Xie Xuanchen has not changed at all.
The dignified appearance that came slowly was the same as before.
Mu Mingtang sat down with Xie Xuanchen, secretly slandering, what is wrong with this couple? Yesterday Jiang Mingwei stared at Xie Xuanchen motionless, and today it is Xie Xuanji. According to Xie Xuanchen's appearance, he could not have been an ugly person.
What are these people looking at
Jiang Mingwei was shocked yesterday, but seeing Xie Xuanchen today is much calmer. After Xie Xuanchen sat down, Jiang Mingwei said hello with a smile: "It's unfortunate that I was waiting today. First, I disturbed my sister-in-law's meal, and now I disturbed my brother's sleep. It's really what I'm waiting for, so please forgive my second brother and second sister-in-law."
Xie Xuanchen immediately extracted a key point from Jiang Mingwei's words: "You didn't eat?"
Hearing that, Mu Mingtang said quickly: "Why, I had already used up when King Jin and Princess Jin came. I didn't want to wake you up in the morning, so I used it myself, but your meal was ready early in the morning. Now accompany you to dinner?"
Xie Xuanchen nodded seriously: "Okay."
Mu Mingtang glanced at Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei, and was really embarrassed to throw them out again, so he could only politely say: "Have King Jin and Princess Jin had breakfast for breakfast? Why don't you use more with us?"
Jiang Mingwei immediately wanted to refuse, what a joke, there are still many things waiting for her in Jin Wang's mansion, how can she have time to eat breakfast with idlers. But Xie Xuanji woke up from the slight trance, smiled immediately, nodded and said, "Sister-in-law has a life, and she will do whatever it takes."
Jiang Mingwei's refusal that she had to blurt out instantly choked in her throat. She glanced at Xie Xuanji, obviously embarrassed. But Xie Xuanji doesn't think that Jiang Mingwei's affairs are important, just take care of the furniture, how much life can he have, which is more important than his reputation in the foreign dynasty? So Xie Xuanji glanced at Jiang Mingwei with a hint of warning. Jiang Mingwei could only bear it and accompany Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen to the dining room.
In a moment, the maid had already added two more chairs to the dining table. Xiang Nanchun led the maid and put dishes on the table one after another. Mu Mingtang poured a cup of tea with his own hands, and then handed it to Xie Xuanchen after testing that the temperature was just right.
The movements of the two of them did not avoid others, as if they were natural. Xie Xuanji was stunned when he saw it.
In Xie Xuanji's impression, Mu Mingtang was dull and boring, stiff like a marionette. After Mu Mingtang got engaged to him, the two of them had met once or twice under the care of their elders. But at that time, Mu Mingtang always lowered his head and raised his eyebrows, refusing to take a step or say a word, as if he was raised in a high-rise building and had never seen a man, he was very well behaved.
Although docile, it is undeniably cute.
If it wasn't for Mu Mingtang's sudden outbreak later, Xie Xuanji thought that Mu Mingtang was such a willless puppet. Mu Mingtang mocked him unceremoniously in the study that time, and after marrying into the Qiyang palace, he was shameless and sarcastic several times. Xie Xuanji was surprised that she had been pretending for so long, and he despised her rudeness even more. .
Previously, she could be said to be obedient and submissive, but later, her behavior was extremely rude, without the gentle and elegant temperament of a noble woman, Xie Xuanchen thought that Mu Mingtang was such a sloppy folk who could not stand on the table.
However, when she was beside Xie Xuanchen, she was so meticulous that she could even notice the temperature of the tea. And she just heard that Xie Xuanchen woke up and ran back without any scruples, which actually meant that you were alone in her eyes.
As a man, Xie Xuanji was a man who used to be Mu Mingtang's fiancé, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous at this moment. Why is Mu Mingtang not lying to him, but completely different to Xie Xuanchen? Of course he understands that he doesn't like Mu Mingtang, but the possessiveness of men is so strange, he can dislike it, but Mu Mingtang treats him indifferently, treats him indifferently, and is gentle and considerate to another man, Xie Xuanji is very disgusted happy.
Especially that person is his brother.
