The sky was filled with drizzle, adding a touch of chill.
Mu Zhiqing was practicing in the house when she saw her mother walking in with a gloomy expression.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"I'm afraid we are in some trouble." Mu Jinlan sighed and said, "The wedding day of Su Wanrou and Liu Xingche will be in three days. This marriage is a marriage arranged by the emperor, so it was mentioned in the court today. this matter.
The Liu family took the opportunity to bring up the fact that you have a fiancé, and said that it would be a good thing for you to bring your fiancé to the ceremony and let the emperor set the wedding date. "
"Liu family?" Mu Zhiqing frowned. Would the good Liu family take the initiative to propose this
"Lin Shuhui must be behind this matter. With Su Qi's current status, he couldn't bring himself to mention this, so he asked the Liu family to speak." Mu Jinlan said with an unhappy look.
Mu Zhiqing looked sideways at Mu Jinlan, "Mom, do you also think this is good?"
"Of course I think this is good." Mu Jinlan said very smoothly.
After saying this, her expression couldn't help but pause and said: "You can't misunderstand my mother, she was not involved in this matter."
Mu Zhiqing: "Haha..."
"Mom is really not involved." Mu Jinlan said seriously, "If Yun Ting is here, I would naturally feel great, but isn't Yun Ting going back for something? Now I don't know when he will come.
If you fail to come when the time comes, it will be the crime of deceiving the emperor. "
Seeing this, Mu Zhiqing withdrew her suspicious eyes. She understood that her mother was telling the truth. Lin Shuhui must have seen their recent success, so she wanted to create a trick to make them unhappy.
"Zhiqing, is there any way you can contact Yun Ting?"
Mu Jinlan said with a serious face, "I understand that you don't want to get married for the time being, but the Emperor has already spoken out about this matter, so there is no room for change.
Once Yun Ting doesn't show up, our situation will be very dangerous. "
She could imagine that Lin Shuhui would take the opportunity to attack and accuse them of deceiving the emperor. In front of so many people, even if Zhiqing was a third-grade alchemist, she would not be able to escape the guilt.
Mu Zhiqing lowered her eyes, a serious look on her pretty face.
"I have no way to contact him. Before he left, he told me that he was only leaving for a few days and should be back soon."
"What should we do if we don't come back that day?" Mu Jinlan looked worried, "How about we go and report to the emperor now?"
"I'm afraid it's useless." Mu Zhiqing shook her head, "The Emperor is a noble person, and since he said such words in front of all the courtiers, I'm afraid he won't change.
What's more, when I refused to marry in public, my fiancé never showed up, so many people already had doubts.
Once we don’t show up on that day, even if what we say is true, it will be false in everyone’s eyes. "
"Then what should we do?" Mu Jinlan's expression became even uglier, "I really want to kill Lin Shuhui directly. This woman is simply out of control!"
"Mom, don't be anxious. Don't you still have three days?" Mu Zhiqing narrowed her eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in her depths. "In three days, I will also prepare a big gift for them!"
At this time, a figure walked in from outside the house.
"Don't worry, it really can't be done. I'm still here, senior brother!" Gu Zening raised his eyebrows, "I'll pretend to be your fiancé then. I'm sure everyone's expressions will be very exciting!"
