Chapter 6: The Storm
Until Mo Wengu pulled her out of more than 100 steps, Shu Qing was still in a trance.
In the past, Mo Wengu never disdained to touch her, and even hated physical contact with her, so Shu Qing felt that Mo Wengu probably mistook her for Ying Wanwan, but if you think about it carefully, she is so different in size from Ying Wangwan, Mo Wengu's eyes should not be so confused, right?
Along the way, Shu Qing's face was buried very low, as if he was afraid that he would be recognized by Mo Wengu.
The two walked fast in front, and Mo Xian and Ying Wanwan also quickly followed the two.
Shu Qing's hands were clenched so painfully, and I don't know if there was some edema after pregnancy, and it would hurt if I touched it a little on weekdays, where could I withstand Mo Wengu's ravage.
She was in tears of pain.
Mo Wengu also seemed to realize that his reaction was a little excessive, and the closer he got to the front hall, his mood gradually stabilized.
When he was about to get close to the crowd, he suddenly stopped again and said to Shu Qing: "Today you are the birthday star, the hall is full of guests and friends, but you are hiding at the side door, what kind of system is this?" If you let others see it, where do you put the face of this king? ”
Really...... Face, or for his face.
Shu Qing lowered his eyes gloomily and said, "Don't worry, the concubine will definitely play the role of a good birthday star today." ”
"That's good." Mo Wengu said, then let go of Shu Qing's hand and walked into the front hall.
After some pleasantries, the birthday banquet soon began.
The Shu family is a family and has always been valued by the royal family, not to mention that now Shu Qing is married to the emperor's respected brother Mo Wengu, which has established the status of the Shu family more and more.
When the wine was in full swing, the emperor ordered someone to send a birthday gift, and gave Shu Qing a lot of silk and rare treasures to show the royal family's importance to Shu Qing.
Shu Qing thanked the emperor for his grace, and then came to the time when all the guests at the banquet offered gifts.
Everyone offered gifts, and for a while, all kinds of treasures filled the front hall, and Ying Wanwan also came forward to offer gifts in person.
Dressed in a goose yellow dress, she walks with a graceful look and looks exceptional. Although Ying Wanwan's body has just grown, and even has the plumpness of some girls, because of her long-term practice of dancing, her figure is extraordinarily tall, and she has the quality of being loved.
Ying Wanwan was holding a very small box in her hand, and in the blink of an eye, she came to Shu Qing, and said with a smile: "Wanwan wishes Princess Qing good health and immortality." Wanwan didn't have any birthday gifts, only a peace charm that she personally asked for from Master Huiming of Wuliang Temple, and I hope that Princess Qing will wear it, so that her mother and son can be safe, and give birth to a tiger for King Qing as soon as possible. ”
Ying Wanwan said very sincerely, which was praised by the guests at the banquet.
"I heard that Master Huiming's peace charm is very effective, and Prime Minister Li's wife has relied on this peace charm to survive the catastrophe."
"yes. Miss Ying really has a heart, and it takes at least three or five days for Wuliang Temple to come and go. Besides, Master Huiming is not something that everyone has seen, and I think Miss Ying has put a lot of effort into it. ”
"Yes, there are a lot of pilgrims in this Wuliang Temple every day, and it is not easy to enter the temple to make incense, let alone ask to see Master Huiming."
All of a sudden, everyone praised Ying Wanwan to the sky.
Shu Qing showed a smile dignified and generous, and said, "Thank you Miss Ying for your kindness." Snow ring, take it. ”
Ying Wanwan blushed with a small face, her appearance was very cute, she stuck out her tongue at Shu Qing, but she took back the box, and said with a smile: "If this peace charm is put away, it will have no effect." If Princess Qing doesn't mind, let Wanwan put it on for you. ”
Hearing this, Shu Qing pursed his lips vigilantly, and glanced at Mo Xian.
Mo Xian was sitting not far from her, eating tea leisurely, as if he hadn't noticed her.
For some reason, Shu Qing always had a bad premonition in her heart, but Ying Wanwan was so sincere, if she refused, she would fall into her mouth.
Shu Qing smiled, got up and said, "Then I'll bother Miss Ying." ”
Ying Wanwan smiled slightly, hurriedly opened the brocade box, took out the delicate peace charm from it, and hung it on Shu Qing's neck. This peace charm looks ordinary, nothing special, but when it is attached to his chest, Shu Qing's heart chuckles with a little discomfort.
She had a vague premonition of bad luck in her heart.
Could it be that there is something wrong with this peace charm? There is indeed a special fragrance in this talisman, but Shu Qing paid special attention to it, this is not the smell of musk, nor the smell of oleander, in order to protect the fetus, she has worked hard these days.
Although there was discomfort, it was only for a moment, and Shu Qing thought that he would just take it off after the birthday banquet.
Soon, this birthday banquet was coming to an end, Mo Wengu sat beside her, uneasy, as if waiting for someone to arrive, until it was almost over, Shu Qing remembered that Feng Yunan and Yu had not yet appeared.
Shu Qing couldn't help frowning, turned around and asked the old butler: "Butler, have Feng Gongzi and his concubine ever come?" ”
The old housekeeper patted his head and said busily: "Look at the old slave's brain, I almost forgot about it, Feng Gongzi didn't come, but his little servant came and sent a lot of birthday gifts." ”
"Why don't you come?" Mo Wengu frowned beside him and asked.
The old housekeeper was stunned for a moment, as if he was desperately recalling: "The little guy said that Feng Gongzi's concubine Yu seems to be sick, and Feng Gongzi went out to seek medical treatment for her, so she couldn't come, so she entrusted the little maid at home to come over." ”
Mo Wengu's face darkened, and he even had the urge to faint.
Didn't he take great pains to hold this birthday ceremony just to wait for Feng Yunan? Who would have thought that it would be an empty job now!
Mo Wengu could not be so stimulated, and immediately got up from the banquet and strode out of the courtyard.
He's going to settle accounts with Lin Ziyue! This is all a bad idea that Lin Ziyue gave him, and now it is good, not only did he fail to find out the clues, but he held a birthday gift for Shu Qing in vain, which increased her ambition and destroyed her prestige!
Mo Wengu's sudden departure caused everyone to be surprised, and Shu Zicheng, who had been watching from the corner, frowned even more unhappily, and in the end, it was Shu Qing who tried his best to think of a rhetoric to settle this birthday banquet turmoil.
Shu Zicheng walked out of the palace with a cold snort, and when he left, his mouth was full of words: "Hmph, what's the urgency, can it be more important than my daughter?" turned around and left without regard for feelings, it was clear that I didn't take my daughter seriously! Didn't take me Shu Zicheng in his eyes! ”
Shu Qing was caught in the middle, in a dilemma, and he persuaded him for a long time before he said that he moved Shu Zicheng and didn't let him go to the Dragon Court again.
It was night, and Shu Qing was alone with the moon drinking.
Now, she finally understood that her status in Mo Wengu's heart had not changed at all, not even the slightest.
