Chapter 345: Wishful Thinking

On the day of the celebration of the princess's birthday, God is very face-saving, the autumn is crisp and the sun is shining, it is a very good weather.

Early in the morning, all the people in Qingwang's mansion were newly decorated, and even the people under them changed into new clothes, busy and busy, performing their duties.

Not long after, the people who went to the banquet one after another began to arrive at the Qingwang Mansion. The subordinates in charge of the reception were almost dazzled by these ladies and ladies, and the ladies were naturally dressed solemnly and dignified. The ladies are very different, but without exception they are all carefully decorated.

But it is bright and moving, or elegant and tranquil, or elf cute, but one thing in common is that they are all young and ready to marry, young and beautiful, and light makeup is always appropriate.

The ladies had their own place to go, and the ladies went to the garden to relax after the ceremony. For a while, in the garden of Qingwang's Mansion, the warbler Yanyan walked in it, it was really full of flowers, and people were more delicate than flowers.

Even the well-maintained garden was compared to these ladies.

Before the time of the birthday banquet arrived, Princess Qing and the ladies sat in the main courtyard and chatted, either that your family married a good daughter-in-law, or that her family recruited a good son-in-law, of course, the young ladies who came to the banquet were also in their topic, and Princess Qing could also know from it which family was interested in forming a relationship with the palace, and which young lady was willing to commit to Mu Qiyue.

Of course, these can also be seen from the birthday gifts prepared by these young ladies, and the intentions and perfunctory are clear at a glance.

"The fourth master is not shallow." Lu Mingtao and Mu Qiyue stood in an inconspicuous corner, from which they could see the warblers and swallows in the garden. and the busy people in the palace.

Mu Qiyue had a cold face, glanced at Lu Mingtao, who was watching a good show, and regretted a little in his heart why he asked him to come over to give a birthday gift, and if he changed the head of the Muyue Commercial Bank, he couldn't talk to him like this.

"Yo, that's the young lady of Wang Shilang's family, she looks really virtuous," Lu Mingtao commented while watching, "It's just that the laughter is too fake." ”

"That Miss Li is also a beauty, but her temperament is too arrogant." Lu Mingtao pointed to a young lady who was looking at people with her chin and said.

Bala Bala. Lu Mingtao did not leave the ladies who were playing in the garden.

"The Imperial Aunt is here. I'm going to greet you. Mu Qiyue ignored Lu Mingtao, and walked out after speaking.

"Tut-tut, the fourth master, you are going, but the sheep is in the tiger's mouth. Those women are not going to eat you. Lu Mingtao spoke a little meaner. But it's also true. Mu Qiyue didn't show up in front of Princess Qing much this morning, which made those who wanted to see him very embarrassed.

And the arrival of Princess Changmin. Mu Qiyue is bound to go out to greet him, which is a good opportunity for everyone to observe him. Where will those who have a heart let go.

"Imperial Aunt." In front of Princess Changmin's special carriage, Mu Qiyue stood straight, held Princess Changmin's arm, and escorted her out of the carriage.

"Say hello to the Imperial Aunt." Mu Qichen and Mu Qicheng also stepped forward and saluted Princess Changmin.

"Get up, today is a good day for your mother, don't be so polite." Princess Changmin waved her hand and signaled the two of them to be casual.

And she herself followed Mu Qiyue towards the courtyard where Princess Qing was.

"Hehe, this pomp is really not small." Princess Changmin walked leisurely, and the busy crowd also saw it.

"It's a whole life, so it's natural to do a big deal." Mu Qiyue said decently.

"You're not going to have any demon moths today, are you?" Princess Changmin saw that he was so peaceful, and it was not his usual style at all, she was a little worried, this is not more than usual, Princess Qing spent a lot of effort to hold this birthday banquet, and began to prepare two months ago, if Mu Qiyue messed up, maybe the relationship between their mother and son will never be reconciled.

"How so? Since it's a birthday banquet, it's natural to celebrate it. Mu Qiyue sneered and shook his head.

Although Princess Changmin listened to his words a little awkwardly, she couldn't find a problem for a while, so she just thought that he would be patient.

"You've been making it rain lately, it's very beautiful." Princess Changmin also knows the fall of some people in the capital, which has a certain relationship with him.

"If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, they brought it on themselves." Mu Qiyue didn't sympathize with those people at all, even if they weren't happy at this time, he didn't kill them, he just gave these people a profound lesson.

Presumably, in a decade or so, these families may recover fifty or sixty percent. I have to say that Mu Qiyue's hands are really dark enough.

When Princess Qing was secretly annoyed by Mu Qiyue's absence for a long time, she found that Mu Qiyue was walking in her direction with Princess Changmin, and immediately showed a satisfied smile.

"My sister is here, I am not welcome, come in quickly." Princess Qing smiled and got up to greet Princess Changmin.

"Sister-in-law is polite, today is a good day for you, I must come." Although Princess Changmin sometimes can't get used to Princess Qing's neglect of Mu Qiyue, she will still give her enough face on this occasion.

Princess Changmin asked people to send congratulatory gifts, inside is a pair of Guanyin sitting lotus Ruyi bottles, which are tributes from foreign countries, there are only two pairs in total, one pair is in the emperor's place, and the other pair is given to Princess Changmin.

Now Princess Changmin took them out, which made everyone present exclaim. looked at Princess Qing's happy face with envy, and felt that Princess Changmin was really bold, and she could even give away such a rare thing.

Princess Qing pushed it back, and then said, "Thank you sister for your kindness, then I will be disrespectful." Happily, he put away the pair of Ruyi bottles, took Princess Changmin's hand, and sat on the top with him.

Mu Qiyue wanted to leave, but was stopped by a group of ladies with blue eyes and kept saying some flattering words, which made him bored from the heart.

"The fourth prince is really a talent, no wonder he can make such a career." A certain lady's wife laughed sharply, with a mean look on her face, looking at Mu Qiyue's eyes, as if she was waiting for the price to sell.

"That's it." Several echoing voices.

……

was surrounded by these women for half an hour and flattered them, and occasionally secretly mentioned the daughters who came with them, so he asked these ladies to stand in front of Mu Qiyue and let him choose.

Mu Qiyue really couldn't stand the noise of these women, but with Princess Changmin watching from the side, he couldn't go too far, so he had to find an excuse to leave with a cold face.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, the birthday banquet is about to start, why don't we go over and have a look?" Princess Changmin saw that the ladies present had a stiff face at Mu Qiyue's sudden departure, so she opened her mouth to talk to Princess Qing, breaking the embarrassment of the scene.

"Yes, yes, yes, almost." Of course, Princess Qing was dissatisfied with Mu Qiyue's behavior, but she couldn't help but give Princess Changmin face, she knew that Princess Changmin had always liked Mu Qiyue very much, and Mu Qiyue was closer to this princess than to herself. This is a fact that she does not want to admit, but it is in front of her.

However, Princess Changmin helped her round the scene, and Princess Qing couldn't complain about her, Princess Changmin's status was much higher than her, and even Prince Qing couldn't compare with her. Although Princess Changmin is the imperial aunt of the current emperor, she can be treated like a mother by the emperor, which is directly related to the fact that Princess Changmin raised him unmarried in her life.

However, Princess Changmin is low-key and never uses her power to do something disgusting, so her prestige is even higher.

The other ladies no longer dared to express their dissatisfaction. Follow the two of them towards the banquet place.

Along the way, there were constantly ladies from various families who came to say hello and say hello, all of them looked like they were knowledgeable and courteous, and they expressed themselves implicitly and appropriately.

If Lu Mingtao was present, he would definitely sigh that these young ladies have changed their personalities so quickly, and they are not much more worried than him, a capable person in the shopping mall.

Princess Qing looked at the girls around her with a smile on her face, and said a word or two to Princess Changmin from time to time, whose family these girls are, what their personalities are, what strengths they have, and so on. That look looked very satisfied, and Princess Changmin also sensed some of Princess Qing's intentions from her words.

She carefully inquired about the identity of Princess Qing's favorite candidate, and a wave of anger gradually rose in her heart.

Among those people, there are either the concubines of any small families who are not famous, or the concubines of some medium-sized families. Not even a decent candidate.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, this sister-in-law still treats Mu Qiyue so slowly, and she is so perfunctory in her marriage. With such a big battle as her birthday banquet, if someone who is far from Mu Qiyue's identity is selected, wouldn't this make the whole city see his joke?

Originally, Princess Changmin had changed her opinion of Princess Qing a little, but from this matter, she understood how much grievance Mu Qiyue had endured in this palace. Princess Qing did this, obviously because she didn't want Mu Qiyue to get help from the Yue family, so she would arrange for him to be married to the daughters of some people who had no power.

At this point, Princess Changmin agreed in her heart that Mu Qiyue wanted to marry Lin Zhu as his wife. With General Chang behind him, Prince Qing and Princess Qing should have some scruples.

Of course, this will not hide from those shrewd ladies, after knowing the plans of Princess Daoqing, some people's eyes lit up, thinking that their own opportunity has come, and it is a rare opportunity to cling to the palace, why not make them excited?

Some people who hold their own identities don't bother to marry their daughters to Mu Qiyue, and they have other plans to come here. After all, it is impossible for Mu Qiyue to become the prince, and although the second son of Prince Qing has already married a wife, it does not prevent him from accepting a few more concubines. Therefore, some people inquired about the situation of the other two sisters-in-law of the Mu family without a trace.

Everyone had a wishful thinking, but they, including Prince Qing and Princess Qing, didn't expect that Mu Qiyue would not agree to their arrangement, and even disgusted it to the extreme. If they knew the truth, they would understand that this birthday feast was actually in vain.

I went out early in the morning to run errands, and I came back at nine o'clock, so I can only update one chapter, and I will make up for it tomorrow. (To be continued......)
