Chapter 17: Signs of Danger (3)
Everyone suddenly didn't know what to say, and at this time, Mu Lingzhen happened to come here with Manager Zhang, and suddenly broke the solemn and embarrassing situation. "Lord Wang! Leng Mu is here. Manager Zhang said softly to Ling Ying.
Run Wang Shixu (the third in line, except for Ling Ying and Ewang Xuanzhu, the two princes, among the other brothers, the highest martial arts) was born with a very sensitive sense of hearing, no matter how subtle it is, he can hear it clearly.
As soon as he heard that Leng Mu was coming, he immediately shouted loudly: "She's coming! Leng Mu is coming!" As soon as everyone heard that Leng Mu was coming, they immediately turned their heads to Mu Lingzhen. Mu Lingzhen was about to yawn, but when she saw many people staring at her, she immediately held back. She quickly walked over to Ling Ying and saluted respectfully.
"Slaves and maids greet all the princes. King Qi said without raising his head: "These people in front of you are the royal brothers of this king, Manager Zhang, you can introduce them to her one by one." ”
"Yes! As he spoke, Manager Zhang looked at the princes and said to Mu Lingzhen: "These two are King Ji (Hanmo, the eighth brother of King Qi) and King An (Zhao Yu, the seventh brother of King Qi).
In addition, this (pointing to King Run's Shixu) is King Run's (Shixu, the third brother of King Qi), and the one behind you is King Xi (Shu Yu, the fourth oldest among the brothers, is a famous archer, who has studied divination since he was a child, and now, his divination is very superb. )
After a slight pause, Manager Yu continued to introduce Mu Lingzhen one by one: "The youngest is the youngest ninth brother of the prince, King Zhao (Run'an). (The ninth, the youngest prince, has just turned sixteen, just one year younger than Mu Lingzhen.) He is the most playful and lively Taiping prince among the nine princes.
Emperor Zhao Yin, the eldest in the ranks, has always ignored the dynasty and drank all day long, but the world is still peaceful, so he is jokingly called by everyone: the son of peace. )
Mu Lingzhen respectfully greeted all the princes: "The slave and maid coldly greet the princes." ”
"Second brother, who do you think she looks like? Isn't it very much like her?" Run Wang Shixu leaned over to Ling Ying's side and said something incomprehensible mysteriously. As soon as he reminded him, all the princes shook their heads to themselves and said that they didn't know. (Except Ling Ying)
"Who does she look like?" asked King Shao with some curiosity.
"It's not!" Ling Ying answered the question without thinking, he didn't seem to care at all, still cold. He didn't even blink an eye when he answered, as if the matter really had nothing to do with him.
Seeing that Ling Ying didn't want to deal with him at all, King Run changed the topic boringly. But to be honest, he seems to have a penchant for asking things that people don't want to say or don't know how to say.
No, he didn't want to mention which pot this time: "Huh, why didn't the eldest brother and the sixth brother come?" As soon as he mentioned this, everyone began to disagree again, after all, among the nine princes, in terms of appearance, martial arts, or talent and art, only King E (Sixth Prince) Xuanzhu can have a fight with Ling Ying.
He is the best friend with Ling Ying on weekdays, and this time he will gather in the future, which is really suspicious. As for the emperor, maybe he was drinking and having fun with those concubines, so he didn't mention it for the time being.
"Sixth brother won't take your words seriously, second brother, right?" asked King An Zhao Yu with a hint of a smile. Who knows, Ling Ying just smiled arrogantly: "According to the intelligence of the sixth brother, he should have guessed the meaning of those words a long time ago, he is not the kind of person who plays tricks."
I'm afraid that today and the future will be delayed by something, not to mention that today is just a small gathering in my house, and it is not a big deal. It doesn't matter if you come or not. ”
Mu Lingzhen looked at Ling Ying and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, "This prince's heart and temper have become too fast! Although it was a little cold before, it was okay, but now why does this give people a strong sense of pressure?"
"Why are you stunned there? Why don't you add tea to your prince!" A cold and arrogant voice with a reproachful tone came into Mu Lingzhen's ears, and Mu Lingzhen was instantly frightened back to reality. "Yes!" she replied, with a sigh of relief.
After a little relief, Mu Lingzhen poured tea for all the princes, and while pouring the tea, she puzzled her thoughts in her heart: "Why does the prince seem to have changed today?
But isn't that right? These are obviously two personalities, one person will never have two personalities, one is very arrogant, the other is like pretending to be indifferent, one is afraid of dirty, and the other is afraid of dirty things......
Thinking of this, Mu Lingzhen couldn't help but have black lines on her head: "Could it be that this one in front of me is the real King of Qi, and the one who lived in King Qi's Mansion before is fake!"
But Mu Lingzhen only cared about his doubts, but forgot that he was still pouring tea for the teapot in his hand, and as a result, the tea overflowed, and it almost burned King Qi's hand. But she didn't react, and continued to bother in doubts.
But when she was amazed to figure out the cause and effect of the whole thing, and the king of Qi was hot and cold to her, including all the reasons why the man came to the king to compete, the inevitable catastrophe had already fallen.
She was shocked and incredible, but the facts made her unable to change her opinion of King Qi, he had never believed her from beginning to end, and had been deceiving her all along, including Qing Xunyu and the murder case, which had been played by him between applause.
At this time, Ling Ying closed his eyes and frowned, it seemed that he was about to have a seizure. But who would have thought that his eccentric personality would also change when he said it, which was incomprehensible.
Lingying was still like that, with his eyes closed, his brows furrowed, and his cold face revealed a hint of chill. But what is surprising is that he didn't say a word, and he didn't say a word. I thought this was the end of the day, but who would have thought that this was just a precursor to a storm.
It's like calm before a storm, but the calmer it is, the more unsettling it is.
It wasn't until King Jin snatched the teapot in Mu Lingzhen's hand with one hand that Mu Lingzhen realized that she had made a big mistake, although she didn't react when she saw Ling Ying, but her heart was still lying together.
Ling Ying didn't make a sound, and Mu Lingzhen buried her head very low in fear, but she still wanted to make up for the mistakes she had made. So Mu Lingzhen brought a dry cloth from the side, she just wanted to wipe off the tea on the table, but Ling Ying's sudden move almost frightened everyone present.
"Smack!" A short and crisp voice came into everyone's ears, but in that brief moment, Ling Ying smashed the teacup in front of him with his sleeves, and the tea splashed all over Mu Lingzhen's body.
