Chapter 117: Entering the Palace for a Banquet
Hearing Mu Yunmo's question, Xuan Shao's face was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Mu Yunmo shrewdly sensed that Xuan Shao seemed to have something unspeakable, and continued to ask: "But it's awkward with the family?" ”
Xuan Shao was helpless, nothing could be hidden from Mu Yunmo's bright eyes.
"It's... Because of you and me? Mu Yunmo asked tentatively, but her cheeks quietly turned crimson.
Xuan Shao changed his previous concealed attitude, and said with a chuckle: "Yes, yes, it's because of you, I'm homeless now, so you can't be the same as before, and rush to push me away as soon as you meet!" ”
Mu Yunmo saw that Xuan Shao looked completely reckless, and burst out laughing, and gave him a blank look: "Who did you learn from, you didn't have half a serious point!" ”
Despite this, Mu Yunmo felt a little sad in his heart: yes, the problems between the two of them have never subsided.
Mu Yunmo's eyebrows, which were slightly frowning because of worry, were fully absorbed by Xuan Shao, and the next second he raised his hand to caress her soft red hair, and comforted softly: "Yunmo, don't think about it, leave these things to me alone, you just need to remember that I Xuan Shao will not fail you in this life." ”
In a few moments, the familiar smell of his body permeated her heart, and the magical voice made her inexplicably reassured.
"yes, got it."
In the distance, the last trace of red on the side of the mountain pulled the shadows of the two people. Mu Yunmo snuggled in Xuan Shao's arms, and only felt that as long as he was by his side, even if he was in the twilight and the darkness was approaching, there was no sadness and fear.
"Hopefully, it will always be the same as it is now, and if it can't be realized, then let time stop in this moment."
Mu Yunmo, who is usually fierce and strong, is like a docile kitten nesting in Xuan Shao's arms at this moment, with her eyes closed, as if she is talking to herself and as if she is telling.
And her inadvertent murmur shocked Xuan Shao's heart, with your heart, what if I lose everything?
Xuan Shao's arms tightened, and he lowered his head and kissed her jade forehead shallowly.
The figures of the two snuggling up were fully caught by Dai Xue standing on the hillside behind them.
"It seems that Xuan Shao's intention is already obvious." Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind Dai Xue.
Dai Xue realized that there was one more person around her, from the voice, Dai Xue already knew who it was, she did not look back at that person, but continued to stare at the two people in the distance as if she had not heard anything, and after a while, she seemed to inadvertently open her mouth and whispered: "Don't bother you, I have my own way." ”
The person behind him chuckled: "Oh? That's the best, I wish you to capture Xuan Shao's heart as soon as possible, and I will come to you again at that time. The words fell, and with a gust of wind, the man disappeared and left.
From beginning to end, Dai Xue looked ahead as if nothing had happened, but her heart was already stirring up a thousand waves, and her hands were getting tighter and tighter.
Dai Xue knew very well that although the person came this time, although it seemed that he had not given any important instructions, he was issuing a warning, he did not have much time left for Dai Xue, and she needed to do it quickly.
Empress Dowager Fu's birthday, originally because the national funeral had just passed less than a month, she ordered it to be canceled, but the noble officials and the palace people around the Empress Dowager naturally weighed clearly who is the real master of the palace now, and the death has long been a thing of the past, and the Empress Dowager Fu is the "sky" in the palace today, so one by one they have admonished "The Empress Dowager and the former emperor have a deep relationship, so everything is simple, but the birthday banquet is inevitable." Empress Dowager Fu didn't really feel heartache because of the death of the emperor, but it looked like she had to do enough in front of outsiders, and now everyone at the bottom said it one by one, and she became more and more fluttering, naturally by the "filial piety" of the ministers, she held a birthday banquet for her.
Mu Yunmo has always disliked the restraint of the palace banquet dress, and Mu Yan doesn't like this kind of occasion even more, but after all, this is Queen Fu's birthday, how can she refute her face, now the Mu family is already difficult to walk, and for the dignity of the Mu family, she also has to be present. The two entered the palace according to the hour, and when they arrived at the imperial garden, they avoided the crowd and chose a quiet corner to sit down.
In the past, when the Mu family was at its peak, every banquet, Mu Yunmo and his father's seats were always surrounded by all kinds of people who wanted to cling to the Mu family, and they were proud to be able to talk to the general of the Mu family, and they flattered and spoke all kinds of flattering words. Now, the general of the Mu family is missing, and the family is gradually declining, especially after Qi Ling stripped off the army in the hands of the Mu family, the once crowded Mu family mansion is now rarely visited, and during the banquet, no one is around Mu Yunmo anymore, so it can be seen that the people among the nobles are weak and the world is cold.
But this is better, Mu Yunmo already hates the hypocritical social interaction, but it is quiet, and the Mu family never needs to see the wind and rudder the grass on the wall.
Mu Yunmo was bored and shook the Qiong brew in the luminous cup in front of her, intentionally or unintentionally, looking forward to when the banquet would end, but she found that there seemed to be a beam of eyes staring in the direction of herself and Mu Yan, which aroused her curiosity, so she raised her eyes and swept the direction of her gaze, and sure enough, she saw the eldest lady of the Huo family in the crowd again.
Mu Yunmo also paid attention to this girl two days ago, her name is Ziyu, I didn't expect to see her again so soon. As the daughter of the most prestigious arms manufacturer in the Red Dome Country, standing beside her father, her petite size is particularly eye-catching among everyone, today she is wearing a red flower and rattan pattern diamond brocade cardigan skirt, the bright color makes her skin fairer, and compared to the previous two times when she saw her lively and simple, this time the hair comb back to the cloud bun made her add a decent and stable, but the big and round eyes and the dripping eyes still can't hide her playful nature.
Huo Ziyu found that Mu Yunmo noticed that he was staring at Mu Yan, and blushed a little for a while, but he didn't withdraw his gaze, but looked at Mu Yunmo with his mouth puffed out and his eyes wide open.
This made Mu Yunmo laugh softly, although this girl was quite hostile to herself, but meeting several times really made Mu Yunmo feel good: bravely and boldly pursuing what she wanted, and this is what Mu Yunmo herself lacks.
These days, Mu Yunmo has been thinking that since he chose Xuan Shao, he can't let Mu Yan follow him for a lifetime, and he will lose his life in vain.
And if you think about it carefully, Huo Ziyu is bright and lovely, and Mu Yan is introverted and silent, if they can be together, this cold and hot are also very compatible, Huo Ziyu's cute and quite active temperament will definitely make up for the insecure gap in Mu Yan's heart. It's just that with Mu Yan's temperament, it may be very difficult for him to accept Huo Ziyu......
