Mo Junhao walked around in the pavilion for a long time before he saw Xiao Yanzi running over.
There was no Shi Qingxue behind him, and Xiao Yanzi reported with a crying face: "Master, Shi Liu Niang said that the palace banquet has already begun, and it is inconvenient for her to leave. Moreover, she is alone, with only one daughter and a melon field, and is causing criticism. Please, Your Highness..."
Before Xiao Yanzi could finish his words, Mo Junhao was so angry that he threw Xia Jin in his hand to the ground. Before he could relieve his anger, he stepped on it twice.
He asked with a ferocious expression: "What else did she say?"
Xiao Yanzi replied tremblingly: "Please see me, Your Highness. If you forgive me, she won't come."
After Xiao Yanzi said his last breath, he shut his mouth suddenly and half-opened his eyes to look at Mo Junhao's face.
Mo Junhao's face was livid, his eyes were blazing, and he grunted through gritted teeth: "You Shi Qingxue! You really think you are a baby! Your Highness invites you with such kindness, but you dare to look down on me?"
But after a while, Mo Junhao showed a strange smile again, and said sinisterly: "Do you think you can disappear just because you say you don't see me? If you don't keep my face, then don't blame me for taking action." Ruthless!
This time I not only want you to see me, I want you to belong to me completely! "
Mo Junhao smiled sinisterly and waved to Xiao Yanzi, "Come here."
Xiao Yanzi was moaning in his heart, but he had no choice but to come forward obediently after being told by his master.
After listening to Mo Junhao's order, he broke into a cold sweat and hesitated again and again, "Master, it would be embarrassing if this matter got serious..."
"Stop talking nonsense and go quickly. If this matter doesn't go well, I will skin you!" Mo Junhao directly kicked him and drove him away.
—
Not long after the banquet started, people started asking Shi Qingxue to talk alone. She refused them one by one and sat in her seat without moving.
On the contrary, Shi Baoning frowned when he saw it and whispered: "Qingxue, I'm afraid it's not good for you to brush off the good intentions of those sisters like this. After all, they also have good intentions. And the Fourth Highness..."
Shi Baoning knew that Qingxue liked Mo Junhao, so he said: "You two grew up together, and there are not so many differences between men and women. Besides, my grandmother also intends to betroth you to His Highness the Fourth Highness. If you talk to him alone, you will definitely No one dares to say anything nonsense. Why should you..."
Shi Qingxue didn't expect that Shi Baoning would say such things to her. She was a little stunned for a moment. After a while, she frowned and asked, "Sister, what do you mean by this? Do you want me to meet a man in private?"
Even if the defense between men and women in Mo country is not serious, it would be objectionable if men and women communicated privately, let alone meeting in private
Shi Baoning was speechless and hurriedly explained: "That's not what I meant. It's just that the Fourth Highness... he will become your husband in the future, so he can't be regarded as an outsider. Now he kindly wants you to go outside for some fresh air. You don't have to do it for this." Little things blow his mind."
Shi Qingxue guessed that her "previous" admiration for Mo Junhao made everyone think that she must be Mo Junhao, so it was not surprising that Shi Baoning had such a guess, and only said lightly: "Nothing has happened. It’s a foregone conclusion, who says he will definitely become your husband, maybe I don’t want to marry him now?!”
"No!" Shi Baoning flatly denied.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, neither of them expected Shi Baoning to have such an excited reaction.
Qingxue pursed her lips slightly and looked at Shi Baoning seriously, "Why not?"
Shi Baoning realized that he had overreacted, so he softened his expression and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, is a perfect match for you in terms of knowledge, appearance, family and talents, and this is the marriage chosen by your grandmother. How can you not marry?"
"Grandma chose it for me?" Shi Qingxue's pupils shrank, and she suddenly discovered something that she had never noticed in her previous life.
She clearly remembered that in her previous life, she had insisted on marrying Mo Junhao, but the Duke and his wife did not want her to get involved. In the end, she begged her grandmother to intervene to get her parents to let go.
But now it is...
She never thought that Mo Shujun actually wanted her to marry Mo Junhao, so why did he later agree with the new emperor to depose her and make Shi Baojin his queen after Mo Junhao became emperor
Shi Qingxue held her breath suddenly and did not dare to think about it further.
Shi Baoning was unaware of her emotions. He nodded solemnly and said cautiously: "Since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers. Grandma has chosen this marriage for you. How can you not marry?"
Qingxue still didn't get over her emotions, so she whispered: "What if he is not a good person?"
The grief of her past life was so vivid that she was in pain so much that her body was shaking.
Shi Baoning paused, hesitation flashed from his eyes, and then said more firmly: "No! What grandma chooses for us must be good! Those of us who are juniors will never listen to her. wrong."
"Ha..." Shi Qingxue suddenly let out a low muffled laugh, but there was no smile on his face.
Although she shares the same mother as Shi Baoning, because the latter was weak, they were not very close in the previous life. She did not realize that her good sister had unknowingly regarded Mo Shujun as a god and treated Mo Shujun He simply obeyed his words.
Shi Qingxue clenched her fists hidden under her sleeves and was about to retort when an old palace maid came over. It was Concubine Liu's nanny Rugu.
"I've seen two ladies."
With outsiders present, Shi Qingxue couldn't say anything no matter how angry she was, so she could only smile and ask, "Aunt Ru, what advice do you have?"
Auntie Ru glanced at the two of them and said in a straightforward manner: "Which one of you is the Sixth Lady of the Shi family? The imperial concubine has summoned me, so please come with me!"
The son had just encountered a problem with Shi Qingxue, and now his mother came to summon him again. It was really not annoying!
Shi Qingxue guessed that Liu Yiyi was here to find a place for Mo Junhao this time, but she could not see Mo Junhao, but she had no reason to refuse the concubine's summons, so she could only nod in agreement and follow Aunt Ru out.
Qingxue and Xia Mang walked along the palace road with red bricks and green walls.
As she walked, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
Even if everyone goes to attend the palace banquet now, the palace road should not be so deserted, and this road is obviously not going to the imperial concubine's palace.
Shi Qingxue stopped and asked in a low voice: "Aunt Ru, this is not the way to Liuye Palace. May I ask where the imperial concubine wants to summon Qingxue?"
Aunt Ru glanced at her with an arrogant expression and winked at the corner. Two tall guards immediately jumped out from the corner. They stood on the road and blocked the entire palace road.
Then she said coldly: "The imperial concubine has summoned you in the peach blossom forest. Just go with me. What are you talking about?"
If Shi Qingxue didn't realize that this was a Hongmen Banquet at this time, then she would be a real fool.
But there was no way to escape. Even if she took Xia Mang with her, she would not be able to escape from the two strong guards. Besides, Aunt Ru was indeed Liu Yiyi's person.
Now even if Liu Yiyi wanted to plot against her, she would have to bite the bullet.
The group of people set off on the road again, with the two guards following closely behind them, not giving Shi Qingxue the slightest chance.
"Liu Niang..." Xia Mang also realized something was wrong, tugged on Shi Qingxue's sleeve and called out softly.
Is it really possible to travel to tiger mountains despite knowing that there are tigers in the mountains
Shi Qingxue gritted her teeth and stopped. When others looked over, she took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said lightly: "I didn't pay attention when I went out and picked a thick cloak, but it made me sweat all over." .”
As she spoke, she slowly took off her long aqua hooded cloak and handed it to Xia Mang, "This is made of the brocade cloth that the Queen Mother rewarded. Take it back and put it away carefully. If you get it, Where is it dirty? You are the only one I can ask."
Xia Mang was stunned for a moment, stupidly looking at the cloak handed to her hand without reacting. Finally, Qingxue patted her and told her to go quickly. Only then did she realize: Shi Qingxue wanted her to take the cloak to report for help. !
He immediately responded: "Hey! I'll be there soon."
But the two guards were still standing there like door gods, and Xia Mang couldn't get through.
Shi Qingxue gave Ru Aunt a sideways look and said casually: "The Imperial Concubine summoned Qingxue, but she didn't say that she had to bring a little maid with her, right? Besides, how many heads do you have if you ruined the cloak that the Queen Mother gave you? Dropped it?"
While speaking, she also signaled Xia Mang to take two steps forward with the cloak in his hands. As expected, the two guards were forced to step back a little, not daring to touch the cloak.
Qingxue then raised her eyebrows and looked at Aunt Ru, which meant, "If you don't let my maid go, we'll just waste it here."
If the aunt didn't want to cause trouble, even a little maid couldn't make a splash, so she waved her hand and asked the guards to let her go, and then said, "Can we continue leaving?"
Shi Qingxue watched Xia Mang's back disappear into the night, but her mood was not at all relaxed.
Can Xia Mang really find help to save her
Who can stop Liu Yiyi's plot against her
She followed Aunt Ru and continued walking forward, but silently estimated in her heart: I'm afraid she has to save herself.
After taking a few steps, Shi Qingxue stopped again.
Aunt Ru glared at her impatiently, "What will Liu Niang do this time?"
Shi Qingxue shrugged innocently, "It's nothing, I'm just tired from walking."
Such as aunt: "..."
She can be regarded as an old person next to Concubine Liu. She has done a lot of things to announce decrees for the concubine. Which noble girl would not follow the concubine with fear after hearing the summons, for fear of making the concubine wait impatiently.
But not only did this person show no awe, he also resisted and was not afraid of offending Concubine Liu Guifei.
Ru Gugu had a cold face and hummed: "If Liu Niang is so negligent, if time is wasted, the imperial concubine will blame you, but don't blame me for not reminding you in advance!"
Even threats were used, but to Shi Qingxue, these words were just unnecessary moaning.
She was tougher than her aunt, and said coolly: "Oh? Aunt Ru, does this mean that Qingxue is delaying time on purpose? Qingxue is not talented and has no rank, so he should not be called "master" like aunt, but at least it is time. The legitimate daughter of the Duke of Guo, such as my aunt, doesn’t even the Duke of Guo pay attention to me?"
The big accusation was suppressed all of a sudden, and Aunt Ru was immediately stunned.
This, why did it suddenly become that he didn't take the Duke of Shi's government seriously
