For a moment, the entire hall was silent, with only the clinking of cups and bowls. If anyone was unaware and passed by the Chaoyang Hall at this moment, they would see the civil and military officials in the court being as hungry as dogs, eating like crazy. There is still a little bit of the impassionedness that comes with going to court on weekdays.
However, among the people in the hall who were devouring food, there was one person who still ate slowly and unhurriedly, and that was Mo Hanqing.
While he put the food into his mouth with chopsticks gracefully, he glanced in the direction of Mo Xiuzhu and Ye Chengan vaguely.
His glance or two was okay, but throughout the lunch, his eyes almost never stopped looking there.
Ye Chengan and Mo Xiuzhu, who were already very hungry, finished their meal tremblingly under Mo Hanqing's sharp eyes.
After the luncheon, all the ministers finally filled their bellies and left one by one.
Ye Chengan and Mo Xiuzhu also stood up, and when they were about to salute Ye Qiqi and Mo Hanqing to leave with their hands clasped in fists, Mo Hanqing's voice suddenly came over and said coolly: "Ye Aiqing and Mo Aiqing, please Stay."
"This..." Ye Chengan and Mo Xiuzhu shook subconsciously and looked up at each other.
"Oh, by the way, there's Murong Aiqing." Mo Hanqing said calmly with the corners of her lips curled up into a smile that was not a smile.
"Yes." Murong Hongyu stood up, saluted Mo Hanqing, and then responded.
Gong Mei glanced at the three of them, and just when she was thinking that nothing would happen to her, Ye Qiqi smiled and said, "Beichen's beloved concubine, you also stay."
"Okay!" As soon as she heard Ye Qiqi call her, Gong Mei's eyes lit up instantly, completely ignoring Mo Hanqing's look that wanted to kill her, and nodded in agreement.
After all the civil and military ministers in the palace left, Mo Hanqing raised his head and looked at them with a cold light in his deep black eyes.
Ye Chengan reached out and secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead, then forced himself to calm down and asked Mo Hanqing: "I don't know what the Queen wants us to do if she asks us to stay?"
"Ha..." Mo Hanqing sneered, and said in a sharp voice: "You know why I kept you here."
"This... The Queen is very thoughtful, I... I really can't guess..." Ye Chengan said bravely.
"Oh." Mo Hanqing responded expressionlessly, and suddenly asked Ye Chengan: "Cheng'an, do you think my queen's wedding dress looks good??"
"This... looks good, looks good, looks great!!" Ye Chengan nodded quickly.
"Don't you think, as a man, there's nothing wrong with wearing such wedding clothes?" Mo Hanqing narrowed her eyes and asked him.
"No, not at all." Cold sweat broke out on Ye Chengan's forehead, but he still insisted shamelessly: "The Queen's beauty is heavenly, and this wedding dress is a perfect match!"
"Hehehehe." Mo Hanqing sneered.
Mo Xiuzhu couldn't help but stretched out his hand and tugged on Ye Chengan's sleeve, telling him to talk less. At this moment, it seemed that the more he talked, the faster he would die.
"Oh, then Aiqing must be very fond of my Xifu." Mo Hanqing suddenly smiled and asked in a kind manner.
"Yes... yes..." Ye Chengan said with a guilty conscience.
