Chapter 35: The Banquet

Halfway through the banquet, Mu Kexian couldn't sit still, and wanted to go out to find his brother after finding an excuse.

"No, there are a lot of people in the palace today, what if one of them doesn't have long eyes and bumps into you? After the dinner, I'll take you to Keyan personally. ”

"No, I'll just go by myself, just walk around."

Seeing that Qi Morui still looked disapproving, Mu Kexian had no choice but to stop and stay quietly by Qi Morui's side, continuing to watch the same banquet.

"What's the matter, the crown princess doesn't seem to be in high spirits." Mu Kexian and Qi Morui sat under the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother could see every move clearly. Seeing that Mu Kexian hung his head and didn't speak all the time, he asked out loud.

The queen mother's question immediately attracted the double attention of the emperor and queen, and the queen thought that Mu Kexian was depressed because of what happened to Yi Fanghua just now, and was about to explain for Mu Kexian, when Qi Morui said with a smile,

"Imperial grandmother, the crown princess, she's just a little tired."

Mu Kexian also seemed to echo Qi Morui's words, nodded slightly, and apologized to the Queen Mother above.

"When you are pregnant, you are easily tired, so you should pay more attention to rest." The Queen Mother said to Mu Kexian, "Rui'er or take the crown princess back first!" ”

Seeing this, Mu Kexian hurriedly said to the Queen Mother, "Imperial grandmother, granddaughter-in-law is fine, you don't have to go back, such a wonderful banquet, Xianxian doesn't want to miss it!" ”

The Queen Mother was very happy when she said something, "I see that they are all people who are going to be concubines, and they are still thinking about being lively, and they are really children's hearts." ”

"Imperial grandmother, the slender is still young!" Mu Kexian looked at the Queen Mother with a delicate face, and her tone showed the pretty of a little girl.

Qi Morui looked at Mu Kexian almost dotingly, and rubbed Mu Kexian's back from time to time during her conversation with the Queen Mother. Probably sitting for too long, Mu Kexian was pressed very comfortably by Qi Morui, and squinted her eyes comfortably like a kitten.

Of course, Qi Morui's actions couldn't hide from the people sitting above, and the Queen Mother and Queen just couldn't help but sigh in their hearts when they saw it, Mu Kexian's life was good, and she could get such a favor from a person.

And such a scene is very eye-catching in the eyes of the emperor, as a future monarch, how can he deign to do such a thing for a woman, it seems that it is time to knock the crown prince. If necessary, the crown princess does not have to be the same......

was obviously looked at with ridicule from above, Rao is thick-skinned person will feel embarrassed, not to mention a person like Mu Kexian who is naturally thin-skinned.

"Okay, don't press it anymore, everyone is watching!" Mu Kexian pressed the big hand on his waist and pushed it.

Qi Morui let go of his hand as smoothly as he could, but he still asked uneasily, "Are you okay, do you want to go back early?" “

"It's fine."

"It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are really as rumored, and they have a very good relationship." King Zhennan looked at the person opposite with a smile and couldn't help but say.

Qi Morui didn't want to talk to King Zhennan's words, who didn't know that King Zhennan's backyard was as beautiful as a cloud, and his life was extravagant, wouldn't it be ridiculous to talk about the relationship between husband and wife? just raised the wine cup in his hand to King Zhennan, and drank it down at King Zhennan.

King Zhennan naturally did not refute the face of His Royal Highness the Prince, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Although it was a banquet held to welcome the king of Zhennan, the banquet was all the same, just a song and dance performance. At the end, it was also the emperor who said a few words of welcome to King Zhennan again as usual, and it was over.

The Queen Mother also waited until the end of the banquet to leave, because Mu Kexian was not good enough to leave the table early on the pretext that she was not feeling well, and she stayed with her until the end.

After the banquet, Qi Morui naturally prepared to return to Fangyi Hall with Mu Kexian, Mu Kexian was already very sleepy, her eyes were about to be opened, and she forgot everything about looking for Mu Keyan.

Because Mu Kexian was too sleepy, Qi Morui directly called the sedan chair. Halfway to the road, I happened to meet Mu Keyan who had finished his duty.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Mu Keyan saw the sign of the sedan chair in the East Palace at a glance and knew that this was Qi Morui's sedan chair. However, according to Mu Keyan's understanding of Qi Morui, sedan chairs are generally not used, and today is an exception.

"Keyan is exempt." Qi Morui didn't get out of the car, but a voice came from the sedan chair. It's not that Qi Morui is putting up a shelf, it's just that Mu Kexian is sleeping soundly in his arms.

However, Mu Kexian was not asleep in the first place, and when she heard a familiar voice in her sleep, she woke up faintly. In Qi Morui's arms, he opened his sleeping eyes, and said to Qi Morui in a daze, "I seem to hear my brother's voice." ”

Mu Keyan heard the movement in the sedan chair, and she already knew in her heart, it seemed that her sister was in the sedan chair. Immediately said, "Chen Mu Kexian see Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. ”

When Mu Kexian heard her brother's voice, her sleepiness disappeared in an instant, and she was about to leave Qi Morui's arms and get off the sedan chair to see her brother.

Qi Morui was very angry, could it be that Mu Keyan was more attractive to Mu Keyan than he was to her, otherwise why would he forget himself when he saw him. But he still followed Mu Kexian's wishes and helped Mu Kexian get off the sedan chair.

"Brother, why are you so dark?" With the light, Mu Kexian saw Mu Keyan's complexion at a glance, which was obviously darker than the last time she saw her, and she couldn't help laughing. can't blame Mu Kexian for not giving face to her brother like this, but Mu Kexian has never given face to her brother since she was a child, and every time Mu Keyan made a mistake and was punished by her father, Mu Kexian would secretly laugh, but she would still go to her father to intercede for herself.

Mu Keyan remembered her mother's chatter at home, and she was always worried that Mu Kexian would not have a good time in the palace. Seeing that Mu Kexian is still in the mood to laugh at herself, it seems that the life in the palace is quite comfortable.

Mu Keyan coughed deliberately, her face was very embarrassed, Mu Keyan knew that her words had poked her brother's sore spot, so she held back her presumptuous and stopped laughing.

"By the way, brother, why did Daddy suddenly take leave?"

"Oh, my father suffered from the wind and cold after going to court today, so he didn't come to the dinner."

When Mu Kexian heard that her father was sick, her expression became anxious, "How is it?" Is it serious? ”

"Lang Zhong has already seen it, and said that there is no major problem, but he occasionally feels cold, and my father's health has been much better when I leave today."

"That's good." Mu Kexian was a little relieved at this time.

"Okay, don't worry about the family, you're fine, we'll rest assured." Mu Keyan touched her sister's head, and immediately followed behind her, the little girl who kept being coquettish had begun to care about the people in the family, and she was about to become a mother, but she was still a child in her heart and needed her own care.

"It's almost time for the palace to drop the key, let Keyan go back early!" After that, Qi Morui looked at Mu Keyan's big hand on the top of Mu Kexian's head with a little dissatisfaction.

From Mu Kexian's point of view, Qi Morui's eyes were naturally not visible, but Mu Keyan could see it clearly. Mu Keyan kept complaining in her heart, hum, this big vinegar vat must have been deliberately said because she was close to her.

"Okay, brother, go back carefully, and say hello to my father and mother for me." Mu Kexian reluctantly said goodbye to her brother and turned around and got into the sedan chair.

Who knows, Mu Kexian's mood did not change for the better when she saw Mu Keyan, and the corners of her mouth sank as soon as she got on the sedan chair.

"What's the matter, aren't you happy to see Keyan as you wish?" Qi Morui hugged Mu Kexian and sighed in his heart, the mood of the pregnant woman was really bursting, just now

When I was down, I was still smiling like a flower, but when I came up, I had a collapsed face.

"I miss my mother and father, and my sister-in-law." Mu Kexian leaned on Qi Morui's chest, sniffed and said angrily.

"What's so difficult about this, you can announce them into the palace tomorrow."

Hearing Qi Morui's suggestion, Mu Kexian's eyes lit up, yes, he can let his mother and sister-in-law enter the palace to see him, his father can't enter the palace, but his mother can!

"Then I'll call them into the palace tomorrow." Mu Kexian was immediately happy, she touched her belly, and said jokingly, "The child is really a universal token, you can call your mother in at any time." ”

Qi Morui hooked Mu Kexian's nose and said dotingly, "Even if you don't have children, it's not that you can't summon Mrs. Mu and them into the palace." ”

Who knew that Mu Kexian pursed her lips and said, "If I hadn't conceived a child, my father wouldn't have let my mother come to see me so often, hmph, this old pedant!" ”

Qi Morui looked at Mu Kexian complaining about his father so ruthlessly, and his serious appearance made Qi Morui very funny, but Qi Morui felt that what Mu Kexian said was very reasonable, and he also knew the character of the prime minister, I am afraid that it is really as Mu Kexian said, and he will not often let Mu Kexian's mother come to the palace to see her.

Qi Morui can't really agree with Mu Kexian's words, Mu Kexian can, he can't complain about his father-in-law behind his back, he thought about it before saying to Mu Kexian, "The Prime Minister acts brightly and knows how to be measured, and he is a model for all ministers." ”

Mu Kexian was also very proud when she heard Qi Morui's praise for her father. "That's not true, but Daddy's proudest thing is to have my daughter."

"I heard from my mother, when I was born, my father was happy, but when my brother was born, he was not so happy. Although my father was very strict with me on the surface, he was actually reluctant to touch me with a finger. ”

Qi Morui thought in his mind that if he also had a daughter like Xian Xian, he would probably spoil her very much, and he was looking forward to what his daughter would be like with Xian Xian.

"Would it be nice for Xian Xian to give birth to a daughter like you for me?"

Mu Kexian touched her stomach and said with a smile, "How do you know that there is a daughter in the belly, what if it is a boy?" ”

"Then I will have another daughter, just like you." Qi Morui looked at Mu Kexian affectionately, with her in his eyes and in his heart.

"It is said that the daughter Xiao's father, what if the daughter of the life is like His Royal Highness the Prince?" Mu Kexian imagined in her mind how Qi Morui looked in women's clothes, covered her mouth and smiled secretly, "But it's good to be like you, after all, our Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not bad, and if she is a daughter, she will definitely be able to charm many people." ”
