Chapter 151: Pretending
Where is Yuan Qiongyu willing, she glared at Qu Miaoling resentfully.
When Miss Wang saw Wen Qingqian pretending to be a good person, she directly said to expose her true face and said: "Don't be deceived by her, she just uses you as a gunman." β
When the gun makes?
Yuan Qiongyu was stunned, in fact, her relationship with Wen Qingqian was not good before, but after the last banquet, the two became good sisters inexplicably. But today's Wen Qingqian's performance made her a little disappointed.
As my own sister, shouldn't I help her?
She was bullied by Qu Miaoling and slapped herself, but Wen Qingqian let herself endure it, is this what she should say to her true friend?
Yuan Qiongyu had doubts about Wen Qingqian in her heart.
Qu Miaoling glanced at the chaotic scene and said, "Forget it, I have a lot of adults." β
After speaking, he left with Miss Wang, and Situ Huaizhu hurriedly followed.
The scene instantly quieted down, leaving only Wen Qingqian and Yuan Qiongyu.
Situ Huaiju's performance just now was completely protecting Qu Miaoling, but with Miss Wang standing by Qu Miaoling's side, Situ Huaizhu couldn't say anything, so he could only follow honestly.
For a while, the three of them also quieted down.
There were more and more guests in the garden, and there was also a rumor of what had just happened between the few people.
From time to time, there were strange glances on several people, but Qu Miaoling didn't care at all, she was used to such a gaze.
The guests are almost here, and the banquet has officially begun.
At the very beginning of the banquet, the brunt of Situ Huaibo's speech was borne.
The clichΓ© is to express Situ Huaibo's gratitude.
Everyone didn't think it was interesting in their hearts, but they still had a smile on their faces. After Situ Huaibo finished speaking, they all clapped their hands to show their respect for the newly appointed King Huai.
The older generation was already seated, and they were talking around a table.
All they cared about was the marriage of their children and grandchildren, and at this moment, a woman suddenly appeared, this was the wife of Xuanzuo's envoy, Jiang.
Jiang asked, "Mrs. An, does Miss Qu have a marriage match?" I heard that you intend to marry her to the fourth son? β
Jiang Shi was thinking of inquiring, and Mrs. Yan Yan smiled, "I did think like this before, wouldn't it be better to kiss and kiss?" β
After hearing this, Jiang Shi thought that this was the end, and just as she was about to leave, she heard Mrs. An continue: "But the two children don't mean this, and I can't help it." β
While several women were talking, Min Ren suddenly appeared.
At this time, Min Ren was wearing a blue robe, his long hair was tied up high with a white hosta, and he was handsome and unparalleled.
There was not a single woman who did not say hello.
They all have daughters of the right age in their families, and marrying Min Ren is a good choice.
I'm afraid that Min Ren won't look down on them, which is what they are most worried about.
As the youngest son in the family, Min Ren has not yet entered the officialdom. But there is a father who is the Marquis of Jingkang, and several elder brothers are all in the officialdom, and it is only a matter of time before Min Ren enters the court.
The ladies are not worried about Min In's future.
As soon as Min Ren appeared, not only the ladies, but also the official ladies were attracted by him.
I can't move away for a long time.
Miss Wang and Qu Miaoling have been walking together, and not far away they are followed by Situ Huaizhu, who is like a fart.
Min Ren saw him at a glance, frowned and walked over, and he said to Miss Wang, "I'm sorry, Miao Ling lent me first." β
Later, in front of Situ Huaiju, he swaggered and took Qu Miaoling away.
Situ Huai stared dryly but couldn't do anything, when will the hostility of these Miao Ling's elder brothers disappear towards him?
He is sincere to Qu Miaoling, and heaven and earth can prove it.
"Hey!"
Situ Huai sighed, and finally turned around and left.
As he passed through the garden, Min Ren overheard the conversation of several ladies and guessed that they wanted to match him with Qu Miaoling.
He only has brother and sister affection for Qu Miaoling, and has nothing else to do.
So he took Qu Miaoling out and said seriously: "Miaoling, you know, I will always be your brother." β
Qu Miaoling looked at this fourth brother who had always pampered her, and nodded slowly; "Fourth brother, I know, and I am only a brother and sister to you."
The brother and sister confirmed their intentions, looked at each other and smiled.
Those who mess with the mandarin duck spectrum, it's time to rest.
At this moment, a man suddenly approached, and Qu Miaoling knew that he was Min Ren's good brother.
The man teased: "What, you still want the old cow to eat tender grass?" A completely joking tone, but was glared at by Min Ren.
"Don't talk nonsense, she's just my sister and will never change."
The man then quipped: "Good brother, what do you think of me, your sister is really nice, and I like it a lot." β
After hearing this, Min Ren kicked the man directly, "When did you become so thick-skinned, can you be worthy of Miao Ling, don't you have a little count in your own heart?" β
"Since you don't like it, you can't occupy the pit and not, cough cough." The man sensed the gaffe and quickly shut up.
Min Ren glared at him again, the man was not convinced, and continued: "Then who do you say you like?" Such a good sister refuses. β
Looking at the man's gossip eyes, Min Ren didn't bother to pay attention to him.
He said to Qu Miaoling: "Miaoling, you play with that Miss Wang, I'll take him out to talk alone." β
On the word "talk", Min Ren deliberately accentuated his tone, and the man wanted to run away when he heard it.
But Min Ren grabbed the clothes at the back of his neck and dragged him out.
"Don't don't, can't I say something wrong? I don't ask! Qu Miaoling heard the man's voice struggling and begging for mercy clearly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never broke from the beginning.
After Min Ren left, Situ Huaizhu, who was hiding on the side, hurriedly appeared, and while Miss Wang was pulled away by her grandfather, he appeared in front of Qu Miaoling's eyes.
"What is the relationship between you and that Min Ren just now!"
He had heard that Mrs. An had the intention of telling her to marry Min Ren.
How close the relationship between Qu Miaoling and Min Ren was, he could see it clearly just now, originally he firmly thought that Miaoling would not give up on himself, but now, he didn't believe it.
Or rather, he began to doubt his own charm.
His status as a member of the royal family did not add points to him, but reduced a lot of points, and the four elder brothers were still like this, and Mrs. An estimated that the same.
After all, if you are born a royal person, who can take only one scoop of 3,000 weak water?
They doted on Qu Miaoling so much, he didn't have the slightest advantage.
Thinking of this, Situ Huaizhu was even less confident.
"Miao Ling, tell me the truth, do you really have a sweetheart?"
Situ Huaiju's expression was very serious, and his eyes were blazing staring at Qu Miaoling.
"I ......"
Situ Huaiju's eyes widened instantly, staring at the other party's lips tightly, for fear of hearing an answer he didn't want to hear.
"I don't really have anyone in my heart all along."
This answer is not bad, but Situ Huaiju is still uncomfortable in his heart.
But compared to this, he didn't want to hear the words of other men in Qu Miaoling's heart.
"I only have one wish now, which is to quickly find the murderer of my mother and avenge my mother."
Qu Miaoling's gaze on Situ Huaiju's face gradually moved away, and slowly, settled on a child-mother tree.
This kind of tree can only be planted once, and it can only take its branches, plant them in the soil, and grow them.
And the miraculous thing is that when the young tree grows into a large tree and is about to breed the next generation, the mother tree dies.
This kind of magical offspring inheritance has become a good story for a while.
The emperor of the dynasty appreciated this feeling of the mother tree very much, so in the Daling Dynasty, many trees were also planted.
In the palace of the prince and prince, there will be a group of children and mother trees planted one after another.
Seeing that Qu Miaoling's gaze kept falling on the mother tree, there was something he didn't understand.
Now that Qu Miaoling is bent on investigating the case and taking revenge, then he will wait, he will help Qu Miaoling investigate together, so that he can still brush up his good feelings.
"Miao Ling, I'll help you."
For Qu Miaoling Leso, "I help you" is more affectionate than "I'm waiting for you".
She glanced at Situ Huai Jue deeply, "It's too early to say this at this time, if you have another favorite person in the future, I ......"
"No, it won't."
For a moment, the air fell silent.
"Never."
He added.
β¦β¦
On the day when Situ Huaibo held a banquet for the king, the emperor issued another order, and all princes over the age of fifteen were named county kings.
The age difference between the princes is not very large, and most of the older princes are also crowned kings, but to this day, the position of the crown prince is still vacant.
Many ministers had written a recital to the emperor before, but the emperor ignored it.
There was no way, the ministers had to bring up the old matter again in the court, but the emperor was furious, "I am in the prime of life, you let me make the crown prince, what is the intention, if you want to rebel, you can't succeed!" β
The emperor was suspicious by nature, so how dare the ministers say it, so they had to quickly kneel down and beg for mercy: "The emperor forgives the sin, the emperor forgives the sin!" β
After the continuous shouting, the emperor's anger did not subside.
Throwing off his sleeves and leaving, since then, no one dares to mention it, but in the hearts of the ministers, they have never let go of this matter, they secretly support the prince they are optimistic about, and stand in their respective teams.
The emperor naturally knew, but he just turned a blind eye.
And Situ Huaibo held a banquet for the king today, and he also had the intention of winning over the ministers.
His mother's mother's family is declining, and it can't help him to become a big treasure at all, and most of the officials who have taken refuge in him are petty officials, and there are very few above the third grade.
Of course, there are many reasons why officials are waiting and seeing, but compared with those who support Situ Huai's decision, his side is much more shabby.
What's more, Situ Huaibo had already said that he was not interested in the throne, but there were still so many ministers who took refuge in him, how could Situ Huaibo not be angry.
Seeing Situ Huaibo surrounded by ministers, they were talking and laughing, and Situ Huaibo's eyes burst with anger.
It looks like he's going to kill someone.
If it weren't for the strategists behind him to pull him, it is estimated that he would have gone over to mix.
"Your Highness, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan!" The strategist said bitterly.
Their Royal Highness is good at everything, but they lack stamina, but as long as they have a good mother's family and can help them at a critical time, how can there be anything to do with the rest of the princes.
Thinking of this, the strategist's eyes flashed.
Compared with Situ Huaiju, their Highness is only here.
Situ Huaiju's biological mother, Concubine Rou, has a very high status in the emperor's heart, and Concubine Rou's maiden family is also a first-class good family background.
Compared to him, their Highness really lacks some advantages.
If Situ Huaibo suddenly made a mistake at this time, everything they had prepared in front of them would be wasted.
"Why is he Situ Huai's decision!"
Situ Huaibo's fists were clenched tightly, and the struggle was inseparable.
"Your Highness, you can't bear to make a big plan!" The counsellor shouted again.
Situ Huaibo finally withdrew his terrifying gaze, he turned around, and in a few moments, he returned to his faint smile.
He slowly walked towards Situ Huaiqi and the others.
"Third Emperor Brother, what are you talking about, so happy!"
The atmosphere that had been harmonious just now instantly tense.
The officials said one after another: "Second Highness, Your Majesty retires." Then they all left, and there was no one left.
Situ Huaibo's complexion tended to turn black.
The strategist hurriedly pulled Situ Huaibo's sleeve and told him not to be angry.
As soon as he comforted himself, Situ Huaibo had to calm down for the second time, otherwise the strategists were afraid that he would suddenly throw his face and make everyone look bad.
