It was originally a kind reminder, but after being so scared back, Qi Chengan touched his nose, and it was hard to say anything more.

In the whole world, only Mu Xiwan in front of him dared to speak to Qi Cheng'an with this expression and tone.

The carriage soon arrived at the palace gate, because the two were sitting in the carriage of the prince's East Palace, so the guards did not dare to stop it, and only came forward to ask Qi Cheng'an for peace when they stopped.

Because there is a happy event in the palace tonight, there are more people, and things are more lively, so for the safety of the palace, the inspection at the palace gate is much stricter than usual.

When I entered the palace gate, I saw a big red lantern hanging in front of the corridor of some palaces, and I was full of joy.

"The Queen Mother's birthday, I didn't expect Your Majesty to attach so much importance to it." Mu Xiwan looked at this row of noodles and sighed a little.

"My father has always been filial." Qi Cheng'an, who was beside him, said.

"You said that tonight's Queen Mother's birthday banquet in Kyoto will come?" Mu Xiwan remembered something and asked.

"yes." Qi Cheng'an nodded.

"Is that Miss Gu Yu from Gu Hou Mansion also coming?"

"Not necessarily." Qi Cheng'an shook his head, "Most of the time, it is the lady in charge of the house who brings the children of the family into the palace to visit, Gu Yu is young in the Hou Mansion, not the boss, and I heard that he is also a concubine." Whether she will appear at the birthday banquet depends on whether the wife of the Hou Mansion will take her out. ”

Mu Xiwan hooked his lips: "I didn't expect His Highness to be so clear about the affairs of the clan's family, and he also knows who is the descendant and who is the concubine." ”

Qi Cheng'an didn't seem to hear the ridicule in her tone, and said with a smile: "Beiyan attaches the most importance to this aspect of respect and humility etiquette, and you don't know it. ”

"yes." Mu Xiwan sighed with emotion, she was born and raised in Beiyan since she was a child, and she was naturally clear about these rules, "It's just that I didn't expect to go out for a long time, and occasionally come back and find that some things have really changed." ”

"Then don't go, don't go." Qi Chengan said intentionally or unintentionally, "My country is so good, why go somewhere else?" ”

Mu Xiwan glanced at him: "My country is good, but there are many people in my country who want to kill me and get rid of it." Your Highness knows this best, doesn't you? ”

Qi Cheng'an was a little helpless: "It was this palace that didn't notice you at the beginning and made you hurt, if I knew you from the beginning, how could I miss you." ”

The Mu family is a Jiangmen family, if he met Mu Xiwan at the beginning, it is not certain that the two of them can marry. It's a pity that such a good woman actually called Darong's thief to take advantage.

"Your Highness, don't be emotional, I and King Ping's family are dead, and it's useless to say more." Mu Xiwan said, "It's not just King Ping who bears me, His Royal Highness knows that it is an endless situation." ”

Maybe it was too heavy to mention this topic at this time, Qi Chengan suddenly silenced and didn't want to say any more. Since he didn't say it, Mu Xiwan naturally didn't mention it anymore.

The two were silent all the way until they walked to Ci'an Palace to greet the Queen Mother.

Mu Xiwan has been a celebrity in Kyoto recently, many of the clan's ladies are locked up at home on weekdays, although Mu Xiwan has hosted some ladies when he opened the mansion, but there are some girls and other people who come today, especially the girls in Kyoto, many people are curious about what the relationship between this princess who suddenly appeared and their Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

So when they saw Qi Cheng'an accompanying Mu Xiwan into Ci'an Palace, everyone's faces were a little difficult to argue.

Not to mention the others, even the Queen Mother saw the two of them coming in together, and a complicated look slipped through the depths of her eyes.

The next etiquette was even more boring, and all the women who came were the grandchildren of the royal family. Everyone rushed to ask someone to bring up their gifts and explain them to the Queen Mother one by one, so that the Queen Mother could see them.

Mu Xiwan sat there, looking coldly at everyone's flattering appearance, and sneered in his heart. They probably don't know what the role of the Queen Mother in front of them is, they look smiling on their faces, but they actually abandon these gifts they give them, and they don't even look at them.

But everyone couldn't see through the Queen Mother's thoughts, and they still stuttered. It's nothing more than some explanations of how long ago your gift was, how much energy it took, how much difficulty it went through, and where it came from, in order to show the intention of the gift you gave.

When Qi Cheng'an and Mu Xiwan were encountered, everyone's eyes were focused on them, and Mu Xiwan didn't care, and generously took out a pair of Buddhist scriptures embroidered with hair and gave them to the Queen Mother.

Finally, in the evening, the father-in-law who arranged the birthday banquet in the main hall came to report that the guests could go there.

The Queen Mother asked everyone to go first, and she went to change her clothes, and then arrived.

Mu Xiwan and Qi Cheng'an walked in front, after entering the main hall, Qi Cheng'an walked aside because he talked to several ministers about things, at this time people had not yet come to Qi, and everyone did not sit down, Mu Xiwan was a little bored, so he stood by the window and looked at the grand arrangement outside.

Looking at the familiar palace walls, she missed her previous days in the Darong Palace. It's been out for so long, and I don't know how he and the child are doing, and whether he has taken good care of himself.

"Hey, who is this, isn't it the famous princess?"

Just when Mu Xiwan was a little sentimental, a familiar female voice sounded next to her, with sarcasm in her voice.

Mu Xiwan sighed, it was really a narrow road.

"Hey, isn't this Miss Shangguan?" Mu Xiwan collected her emotions and turned around, looked at Shangguan Wanyi and said with a smirk.

"Huh." Shangguan Wanyi sneered, the expression on her face was very unfriendly, and the enthusiasm of Mu Xiwan's pretense was even more hypocritical in her opinion.

"It's only been a few days since I've been a princess, what? Have you started to run out and put on a shelf? Shangguan Wanyi now saw that Mu Xiwan couldn't control her emotions at all, and said in a weird way.

"Miss Shangguan had an accident in the princess's mansion because of my negligence last time, I wanted to see you later, but I didn't expect to hear that you were grounded and locked in the mansion and not allowed to go out, I have always been a little worried in my heart, but I didn't expect that now the rumor has not passed, Lingtang has already let you out. It's so good, I feel much more relieved to see that there's nothing wrong with Miss Shangguan. ”

"You don't have to be hypocritical here!" Shangguan Wanyi gritted her teeth and glared at Mu Xiwan, "Why, it's only been a few days since I climbed the branches, I really thought I was the crown princess, and I talked to Miss Ben in this tone." ”

"I also thought that the girl's reputation was ruined, and she would hide in the house and not come out to see people, I didn't want to lose face, but I didn't expect to come out so soon." Mu Xiwan didn't answer her at all, only cared about talking about herself, deliberately trying to provoke her.

Shangguan Wanyi was really enraged, glared at Mu Xiwan and said, "I will settle accounts with you one day for what you did!" You wait for me, I won't let you have a good time! After saying this, he turned around and left.

Mu Xiwan looked at the back of her leaving a little surprised, she thought that Shangguan Wanyi's temper would definitely make a big fuss when she saw her, but she didn't expect to be so forbearing? It's strange, that's not her way of doing things.

The birthday banquet finally began, Mu Xiwan was still observing the abnormal Shangguan Wanyi, afraid that she would deliberately take precautions by some small means, and sure enough, just a while after the banquet, a servant girl knocked over the wine glass in front of her table and poured her own wine.
