On the second day, the Prime Minister's Mansion began to be lively early in the morning, and the birthday celebration was not affected by the bloody rain the night before.

The front yard was filled with various congratulatory gifts, and many ministers and princes of the court and the central government came one after another.

Su Ruoxi was so noisy that she couldn't sleep, so she could only get up early and find a place to sit and yawn boringly.

Wan'er followed Su Ruoxi's side, holding a roster in her hand, and kept introducing Su Ruoxi's identity to the visitor.

Just when Su Ruoxi was about to fall asleep when she heard this, the booklet in Wan'er's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

Su Ruoxi looked back at Wan'er, only to see Wan'er's nervous face, as if she was afraid of something.

"Wan'er, what's wrong? What scares you like this? ”

"Little ...... Miss, National ...... Uncle Guo also came. ”

Wan'er finished speaking, and pointed to you middle-aged man in the yard.

Su Ruoxi looked in the direction of Wan'er's finger, and at a glance saw the uncle of the country in Wan'er's mouth, Shen Tianlei.

Shen Tianlei was dressed in a black robe, his face was stern, his eyes were sharp, and he had a murderous aura all over his body.

Scold! This can't be the one who came to Xingshi to ask about sin, right?

Looking at Shen Tianlei, Su Ruoxi sneered in her heart.

She knew that the Shen family had a high status in the Northern Qi Kingdom, and the head of the older generation of the Shen family was a veteran of the Three Dynasties, so the two daughters of the Shen family, one became the current queen and the other became the prime minister's wife.

Although Shen Lianyue is just a concubine, she has the final say in everything in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In front of Shen Lianyue, Su Yao is an image of a soft-eared and afraid wife. It is precisely because of this that she has suffered in the Prime Minister's Mansion for many years.

Shen Tianlei is the eldest son of the Shen family, and now he is about fifty years old, his body is very strong, and he looks like a general.

Shen Tianlei entered the hall without squinting under the guidance of his subordinates, and did not notice Su Ruoxi in the distance.

"It seems that there is another good show to watch today!"

Su Ruoxi snapped her fingers, looking like she was watching a good show.

Last night, Su Yaocai wrote a letter of resignation and drove Shen Lianyue back to Shen's house, and Shen Tianlei hurried over early this morning, it seems that Shen Lianyue's matter is not over.

"Miss, this uncle is not easy to offend, Miss must not conflict with him."

Wan'er whispered worriedly, everyone knows that the two most powerful people in the court now, except for the third prince Mu Zihan, are the uncle Shen Tianlei.

Su Ruoxi was not worried at all, anyway, when the sky fell, with Mu Zihan and Su Yao on top, she would not be the first to die.

For Su Yao, Su Ruoxi didn't have much affection, and even recalled the past, she had a faint hatred and contempt for Su Yao.

His laissez-faire, as well as his cowardice, are all cowardly expressions. A man who can't even protect his wife and children is not worthy of a husband.

"Wan'er, where has the prince gone?"

Su Ruoxi looked around, but he didn't see Mu Zihan's figure, as if he hadn't come back since he left last night.

"The prince has ...... If there's something, I'll be back in a while. ”

Asked about Mu Zihan's whereabouts, Wan'er began to slurred again after speaking, Su Ruoxi knew at a glance that Wan'er must know where Mu Zihan was.

"Huh......?"

Su Ruoxi looked at Wan'er with suspicious eyes, which made Wan'er even more nervous, and fine beads of sweat began to ooze from her forehead.

"Wan'er, you have been with me for so many years, you know very well how I treat you, right?"

"Miss treats Wan'er like a sister, Wan'er is grateful, and she vows to serve Miss for the rest of her life."

Wan'er was so frightened that she immediately knelt in front of Su Ruoxi, as if she had done something wrong and wanted to drive her away.

However, Su Ruoxi did not help Wan'er up, and continued to ask in an indifferent tone: "Wan'er, are you hiding something from me?" ”

It's not that she doesn't believe Wan'er, it's just that she has to doubt Wan'er's recent appearance.

Wan'er shook her head desperately, and put the two sheep whips in a small bun like a rattle.

"Wan'er will never dare to be unfaithful to Miss, and Wan'er will not do anything to be sorry for Miss."

"Okay, you sue me, where did Mu Zihan go? Don't say you don't know, you stutter as soon as you lie. ”

At first, she just asked casually, after all, she was not interested in what Mu Zihan was doing.

But seeing Wan'er so nervous, she felt that there must be something strange in this.

Wan'er knew that she couldn't hide it, so she replied hesitantly: "Lord Wang, he ...... He went...... Go to the ...... Lord Lingshan. ”

"Mu Lingshan? She's coming too? ”

What is Mu Lingshan here to do? If she remembered correctly, Prince Xian had no relationship with Su Yaoke.

Su Ruoxi felt puzzled in her heart, although she only asked about political affairs, she also knew about it when she was in the palace.

Now there are two major forces in the court, one is the princeling led by Uncle Guo, Su Yao, Uncle Guo, and Shen Lianyue are all the queen's people, so naturally they also assist the prince.

The other group is Mu Zihan, who can make the princelings jealous of three points, Prince Xian and some military attaches are quite close to Mu Zihan.

can let Mu Zihan personally pick up Mu Lingshan, maybe Prince Xian himself will come.

It seems that this birthday celebration seems simple, but in fact it is full of dangers.

Su Ruoxi was analyzing in his heart, and was thinking about it, when suddenly a nice male voice interrupted his train of thought.

"Third princess, it turns out that you are here, so you can find it here."

The person who came was Hou Qingyun, looking at his panicked look, as if he was looking for her in a hurry.

Su Ruoxi sent Wan'er back, and when she saw that no one of the four was approaching, she said with a smile: "Lord Hou is awake?" ”

Hou Qingyun smiled a little embarrassedly, and said with an embarrassed expression: "I did drink a little too much last night, which made the princess smile......

Seeing that Hou Qingyun looked like he wanted to say something and stopped, wanting to ask but not daring to ask, Su Ruoxi guessed what he wanted to say.

So without waiting for Hou Qingyun to ask, Su Ruoxi directly explained: "Lord Hou don't need to be nervous, Lord Hou fell asleep on the stone table after getting drunk last night. ”

"Later, I ordered someone to send Lord Hou back to his room to rest, so nothing embarrassing happened."

Hearing Su Ruoxi say this, Hou Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Hou Qingyun would be embarrassed, Su Ruoxi thought about it and quipped: "Could it be the first time that Lord Hou has drunk a bar?" ”

"Hehe, it's not, it's just the first time I'm drunk, so I'm afraid of being rude in front of the princess."

Hou Qingyun sat down opposite, and although he spoke politely, his behavior was not too restrained.

"Oh......"

Su Ruoxi let out an unconcerned 'oh', her mind was still on what she was thinking about just now.

Hou Qingyun's mind was quick, and he could naturally see that Su Ruoxi had something on his mind, so he asked, "What is the princess worried about?" ”
