Chen Jian felt bitter in his heart, and he didn't dare to speak, so he had to admit it.

The rest of the princes of the family looked at each other and said in their hearts: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really happy with Miss Nangong, and you need to be careful in what you say and act in the future." ”

Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really for the twins? In the end, only he knows for whom.

Zhong Li leaned to look southwest, and the corners of his lips hooked up a vague smile.

"It's not early, it's time for the Queen Mother's birthday banquet to begin." Wang Gu reminded.

Zhong Li retracted his gaze, hummed lightly, and led everyone to the front hall.

The front hall is luxuriously furnished, fully fitting the preferences of the Queen Mother. The twins went to change their clothes, came back to find where their parents were, and walked over.

"Shuang'er" Nangong Yue called her, and suddenly frowned slightly, "Why did you change your clothes?"

"Your daughter, I saved people." The twins didn't want her to worry, so they pretended to be proud.

"Who did you save?" Nangong Wu heard her voice, bowed his head to the minister who was talking, and turned back to ask her.

"The eldest lady of the Rite Department Shoshu family." The twins answered truthfully.

"She?" Nangong Wu thought about it, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu entered the palace today, and only brought his wife and daughter-in-law, and the eldest lady in the mouth of the twins must be Liu Qingmo. This Liu Qingmo was sneering at Shuang'er not long ago, why did Shuang'er save her in the end?

"The Queen Mother has arrived~" The eunuch's sharp voice came from outside, and before she had time to think about it, everyone in the courtyard knelt down.

"The emperor has arrived~" immediately after

"The prince arrives~"

One after another, the basic big guys are all here.

"Get up." The Queen Mother sat down at the top and spoke.

"Empress Dowager Xie!" The people in the courtyard said in unison, and then each returned to his seat and sat down.

"Today's queen mother's birthday, you don't have to be too restrained." The final ape sat on his throne and spoke, but his eyes were in the direction of the final li.

After a few polite words, he began to offer gifts, and took turns to step forward and give the congratulatory gifts to Wang Xiao, the chief eunuch, and then Wang Xiao presented them to the queen mother, one by one.

Nangong Wu's official position is larger, and he went to Nangong's house to present a gift after a while. Nangong Wu stepped forward and presented the congratulatory gift.

"Queen Mother, this is a congratulatory gift from the Nangong family." Wang Xiao opened the box, and inside were flowers carved out of pearls, with different shapes and varieties.

The Queen Mother only glanced away and looked away, but instead looked at the twins with their heads down.

"Nangong Twins, raise your head and let the mourning family take a good look." The tone was flat, and I couldn't hear her attitude.

Twins' hearts tightened, how could this queen mother ......

The twins looked up at the Queen Mother, who was sitting on the throne. The Queen Mother looked at her carefully and said, "Okay, step down." ”

Everyone was also a little surprised, thinking that the Queen Mother wanted to see Nangong Twins, either because she wanted to make it difficult for her, or because she wanted to praise her, no one expected that she just glanced at her.

The twins breathed a sigh of relief, and put down the stone in their hearts, this queen mother, it's really strange.

The emperor on the throne rolled his eyes and looked at the twins as well. Suddenly, a warning gaze fell on his face, and he followed the line of sight to look over, it was the end of the day! The final ape immediately retracted his gaze and looked at the ministers below, but his fingers were secretly clenched into fists.

But he didn't dare to resist, and he could even say that he was afraid of Zhong Li, and only at this time, when he sat on his dragon chair, did he feel that the world was in his hands at the moment, and only when he saw the obedient appearance of the people below did he feel a little bit that he was the emperor, not the flag and plaything under Zhong Litian's hands.

Soon after the gifts were presented one by one, the queen mother said that she was tired and needed to rest, and finally Li Ape hurriedly sent her mother back to Yunyuan.

The Queen Mother left, and the banquet was not greatly affected. The ape took a few sips of stuffy wine to himself.

Everyone in the audience was busy talking, each with their own purpose.

Zhong Li poured a wine glass and walked in front of Nangong and his wife, "General Nangong" He raised his glass to toast and drank it all. His eyes swept over the twins who were hiding behind Nangong Wu.

"His Royal Highness the Prince." Nangong Wu paid tribute to him, and Nangong Yue replaced the wine with tea and returned the gift.

The voices of the people were a little quieter, although they were talking, they did not miss the meaning of every move here, and they all quietly looked this way.

"Why is Miss Nangong avoiding this palace?" Zhong Li asked with a smile.

When the twins heard him say this, they blushed even more. Nangong Wu covered the twins behind him without a trace, "His Royal Highness the Prince, before the wedding, men and women should reduce their meetings. ”

In fact, it hasn't been long since their wedding, they should not have seen each other directly, and because of the prince's face, Nangong Wucai said that they should reduce the meeting.

"But Hongu thinks she thinks very much." Zhong Li said this sentence without hesitation.

Everyone present was shocked, is this still their high-ranking Royal Highness the Prince? How could such a thing be said in public!

Liu Qingmo naturally paid attention to the movements here, and a pair of bright eyes were eager to stick to Zhong Litian's body. Suddenly, when I heard him say this, my heart suddenly became half cold, and my fingers gradually tightened, sinking into the flesh.

"His Royal Highness the Prince." Nangong Yue frowned and called him, "Before the wedding, it is unlucky for men and women to meet. ”

Zhong Li didn't speak, and muttered for a long time, "It's the negligence of this palace." There was some disappointment in his tone, and he turned back to his seat.

Unlucky? The twins are a little confused, so they have already met before, is it already unlucky?

She poked her little head out from behind Nangong Wu and looked at the position of Zhong Litian. I thought that the man had just come to see him, and the twins saw that there seemed to be a ripple in his eyes, and the faint purple set off a pair of peach blossom eyes more and more enchanting. He looked at her and smiled, the twins only felt that their hearts were about to jump out, how could this man be so good-looking!

Finally, Li Tian saw his little girl as he wished, and a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he was in a very happy mood.

A group of people played an official tone, praised each other, and from time to time attracted some relationships, and the banquet ended in a peaceful atmosphere.

It's just that Zhongli Ape drank a little too much, and was sent to rest by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince halfway.

On the way home, the twins were rarely silent, and their minds were full of Zhong Litian's charming face.

Nangong Wu looked at her, sighed almost inaudibly, and called, "Shuang'er." ”

The twins came back to their senses and looked at their father.

"My father may not be able to give you a marriage." Nangong Wu was a little helpless.

"Why!" When the twins heard this, they immediately asked him. Daddy is not here, and her wedding will have regrets.

"The urgent letter from the border has been delivered, and in a few days, for the father...... It's time to go on the expedition. Nangong Wu's gaze was a little complicated, he raised his hand and rubbed the top of his twins' hair, "My twin sons have grown up and are going to get married, so be careful in the future, don't be bullied." ”

The twins' noses were sore, and they almost burst into tears. "Can't Father go a few days later?"

Nangong Wu was silent.

Nangong Yue took Shuangsheng's hand and put her hand into Nangong Wu's hand, "Good ~ Father is going to defend the frontier, Shuang'er is older, he can't rely on his father, he has to learn to protect himself." ”

The twins rubbed their pantothenic eyes, suddenly withdrew their hands, turned their backs, and said angrily, "Hmph, let's go, but I want to receive a congratulatory gift from my father, a large one." ”

"Good!" Nangong Wu smiled, "I'll give you everything, whatever you want, as long as my father can find it, I'll send it to you as a gift!"

"Okay, that's a deal."

"It's a deal."

Sure enough, two days later, the holy decree was issued, requiring Nangong Wu to rush to the frontier from now on.

As soon as Nangong Wu left, the twins were naturally uncontrolled. But she also remembered Nangong Wu's words, pay attention to protecting herself, and she couldn't be caught by gossip, so she rarely went out.

It wasn't until she remembered Xiaoqiu Xiaoye that she went out of the house, and instead of going out directly as usual, she made a disguise to make sure that others couldn't recognize her at a glance.

After seeing Xiaoqiu Xiaoye, I realized that the little master had never been here these days, and they almost thought that they had forgotten it.

The twins apologized and brought them some pastries to compensate.

"Sister, why are you dressed like this?" Xiao Ye asked her suspiciously.

The twins' footsteps paused, and for a moment they didn't know how to explain it.

"Brother, why didn't my brother come?" Xiao Ye asked again.

Little Master? She didn't know that she hadn't seen the little master for a long time, and the young man in white seemed to have evaporated from her life.

"Sister." Seeing that she was distracted and didn't answer her own question, Xiao Ye raised her little hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

The twins looked down at him, and his tone was a little confused, "My sister doesn't know where my brother went." ”

"Did my sister quarrel with my brother?" Xiaoqiu walked out with the boiled water and poured three glasses.

"No," the twins replied quickly this time.

"Xiaoqiu Xiaoye, my sister may not be able to come to see you often in the future." married into the prince's mansion, with the identity of the princess pressed on her, she must not be able to leave the mansion at will.

"Why!" The two of them were anxious at the same time, "Sister, are we causing you trouble?" ”

The twins smiled and shook their heads, "No, you're nice and well-behaved." ”

"What's the reason for that?" The two little ones looked up at her.

The twins saw the child's eyes, pure doubt and reluctance, "Because, my sister is going to get married, and if she gets married, she will have her own burden, and she can't come out casually." ”

"My sister is getting married?" The doubts in Xiaoqiu's eyes were swept away, but she was really happy for the twins.

"Yes." The twins replied.

"It's good, it's okay, we won't leave behind what my sister taught, we will definitely practice diligently." Xiaoqiu assured her.

Xiao Ye is still a little confused, he can't understand what it means to marry for the time being, but looking at his sister's expression, there is no doubt that it is a good thing, it is a good thing, and they are also happy.
