Mu Zhiqing raised her eyebrows slightly, this move was really not what she expected.
Li Chengyang looked at Mu Zhiqing with a cold gaze at this moment. He had already passed out when he saw a black shadow flash past before. Until now, he is not sure what happened, but he is certain that it must be the same as that of Mu Zhiqing. Mu Zhiqing can't escape her involvement.
Since this woman is so arrogant, he just wants to marry her back to see how arrogant she can be!
Xuanyuan Tian's eyes fell on Mu Zhiqing and Li Chengyang, and he nodded in agreement: "They are indeed a good match."
"Let me go, Concubine Lin actually wants to marry my future sister-in-law?"
Ling Qingye lost his composure instantly. His eldest brother finally realized that he was interested in women. How could he marry someone else
Ling Yunting's narrow handsome eyes slightly narrowed. His gaze had already become cold, but when he saw the red figure, he regained some warmth, with a hint of exploration and curiosity.
"Brother, aren't you anxious at all?"
"Not urgent."
"Thank you for your kindness, concubine. I'm afraid I won't be able to obey." Mu Zhiqing flatly refused before Lin Shuqi could say anything.
As soon as these words came out, the place fell into a deathly silence.
Gazes of either shock or disbelief fell on Mu Zhiqing. Normally she was just audacious, but today she dared to resist the emperor's order in front of him. Isn't this looking for death
"oh?"
When Concubine Lin saw Mu Zhiqing's refusal, instead of being displeased, there was a hint of pride in her eyes.
She knew that Mu Zhiqing's temper had not changed, and refusing to marry in public would definitely displease the emperor. Regardless of whether she got married or not, her goal had been achieved.
"What do you mean, Miss Mu? Are you dissatisfied with the decision made by the Emperor and me?"
The gentle words were like the cordial inquiry of an elder, and there was no hint of intimidation. However, Mu Zhiqing's heart was like a mirror, and Su Wanrou learned her tricks from Concubine Lin.
Without this skill, Concubine Lin would not have been able to coax the emperor into submission and remain so favored.
Xuanyuan Tian's eyes suddenly became sharp, and there was dissatisfaction in his brows. The incident that Mu Zhiqing caused in the early years had already had a great impact. If he dared to resist the order in public today, he would like to know how General Mu's Mansion would respond. Explain!
"This woman is deliberately looking for trouble!" The little goblin couldn't help being angry, "I really want to slap her to death."
Mu Zhiqing frowned slightly. Her usual petty quarrels didn't matter. As long as she didn't cause trouble to the imperial court, there wouldn't be any problem with the Mu family's identity and background.
But if she resists the order now and doesn't give a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid it will affect the entire general's palace.
Marry Li Chengyang? That is absolutely impossible.
As a result, she seemed to have no choice.
"Your concubine has misunderstood. I appreciate your kindness, but my mother has already made a marriage contract for me a few years ago, so it is difficult for me to obey." Mu Zhiqing said.
The tight curve of Ling Yunting's lips relaxed, and his eyes like a sea of stars filled with a satisfied smile, blooming little by little like an epiphyllum.
Ling Qingye was frightened to death by Mu Zhiqing's answer. When she turned around sadly, she found that her eldest brother had smiled for the first time, and he smiled so gently.
He slapped himself subconsciously. Was he dreaming
"Brother, you... are you laughing?" Ling Qingye asked blankly.
Ling Yunting suppressed his smile and glanced at Ling Qingye, cold and dignified. The latter turned his head instantly, "I knew I was dreaming."
