Regent (14)
"The minister is here to ask for marriage," Qi Yuan looked directly at Nan Muxuan.
"Marriage?" Nan Muxuan was taken aback, he didn't expect Qi Yuan to make this request.
"Yes"
"Which daughter is that?" Nan Muxuan sneered in his heart, he couldn't imagine that woman was so heavy in his heart, but it was always good to have a weakness.
"She's an orphan," Qi Yuan said indifferently.
Nan Muxuan still wanted to get some information, but he was blocked by Qi Yuan's words and didn't know what to say.
"That'...... Well, I'll make a decree right away."
"Qi Yuan!"
I saw that outside the hall, Nan Lingxue was running in in an embarrassed manner.
"The emperor spared his life, but the slave didn't stop the princess," the consul's father-in-law knelt down and pleaded guilty.
Nan Muxuan waved his hand to let him down, and turned his head to look at Nan Lingxue, whose makeup was ruined and her hair was scattered, disgust and abuse flashed in her eyes.
"Why does the imperial sister look like this" Nan Muxuan pretended to be concerned.
Nan Lingxue ignored it, and looked straight at Qi Yuan who was standing aside.
"What did you come to the palace for," Nan Lingxue said tremblingly.
"Please give you a marriage" Qi Yuan saluted and said coldly.
Nan Lingxue's eyes turned red after hearing this, and she stretched out her hand to pull Qi Yuan, but Qi Yuan dodged sideways.
Nan Lingxue looked at her hands,
"Do you know I've loved you for eight years......"
"So what" Qi Yuan raised his head and looked directly at Nan Lingxue, there was no wave in his eyes.
Nan Lingxue's face was as pale as paper after hearing this, madness flashed in her eyes, and she stretched out her hand again to grab Qi Yuan.
Seeing this, Nan Muxuan hurriedly asked people to stop.
"Help the princess go down to rest"
Nan Lingxue struggled violently, and her eyes were full of unwillingness when she looked at Qi Yuan.
After Nan Lingxue left, calm returned to the hall. Nan Muxuan hurriedly prepared a decree and sent it to the regent palace.
As soon as Qi Yuan left, Liu Qingruo walked out.
"I wonder how different that woman can win the heart of the regent"
Nan Muxuan hugged her in his arms, and his subordinates did not stop.
"That's not as good as Ruo'er in my heart" Nan Muxuan smiled and spoke, his lips kissing Liu Qingruo's skin.
"Then do you want to start with this princess regent," Liu Qingruo pressed against Nan Muxuan's face.
"Don't be in a hurry, some people are more anxious than us." Nan Muxuan took Liu Qingruo's hand away and launched an offensive against her.
After the two warmed up, Liu Qingruo kissed Nan Muxuan and left.
Without the warm fragrance in his arms, Nan Muxuan was less interested.
At this time, the eunuch reported that the queen was coming.
Nan Muxuan looked at Shangguan Qi who came in with a food box, and pretended to be unhappy,
"This is the kind of thing that others are told to do."
Shangguan Qi knew that Nan Muxuan was 'distressed' by himself,
"The concubine is fine, the emperor came up to taste the lotus seed soup made by the concubine"
Nan Muxuan took it with a smile, his stomach was also a little hungry, and he bottomed out after a while.
"The queen did a good job"
Shangguan Qi smiled, looking beautiful in the light.
Nan Muxuan's heart moved, and he pulled Shangguan Qi and kissed him.
Shangguan Qi was very happy when she saw it, Nanmu Renkai always followed the rules and never made love to her in this kind of place.
The smell of a woman's fat powder in his nose startled Shangguan Qi, and he hurriedly pushed Nan Muxuan away with his hand.
Nan Muxuan's face was impatient, but he still looked at Shangguan Qi with a gentle face, whose face suddenly turned pale.
"What's wrong?"
Shangguan Qi held back the strangeness in his heart, lied that he was uncomfortable and hurriedly retreated.
Back in the dormitory, the personal palace maid saw Shangguan Qi's pale face and was anxious.
"Hongu is fine, you can step down"
After the person left, Shangguan Qi was puzzled when he thought about the fragrance on Nan Muxuan's body, there were only a few people in the harem since Nan Muxuan ascended, and Shangguan Qi was also moved by this, the fragrance of several concubines made her familiar to her who was sensitive to smell since she was a child, that fragrance was on other women, so why do you need to be so sneaky, as long as Nan Muxuan wants, she will not care too much.
Shangguan Qi hurriedly wrote a letter to his father, saying the reason and asking his father to check it carefully.
At this time, Nan Muxuan didn't know that Shangguan Qi had suspicions, Shangguan Qi trusted him wholeheartedly in the past, but now that he has suspicions, according to the ability of the Shangguan family, he can still find out a lot.
Jian Mo finished eating breakfast and practiced in the flower garden, when the housekeeper came over.
"Miss Jane, Qin Shizi asks to see"
Jian Mo wondered what Qin Yun was looking for her to do, but she still went.
Entering the side room, Jian Mo saw Qin Yun smiling brightly at a glance.
"Are you still quite beautiful," Qin Yun smiled lightly.
Jian Mo was speechless and sat across from him.
"What are you looking for me for?" Jian Mo looked at him strangely.
"Make a friend" A glimmer of light flashed in Qin Yun's eyes.
"Friends? Why? Jian Mo was shocked in her heart, she wanted to pull Qin Yun to Qi Yuan's side, but it was really rare for this to be automatically sent to the door.
"It's strange to be friends with Qi Yuan's woman" Qin Yun stepped forward and nodded Jian Mo's forehead, and left before Jian Mo could react.
Jian Mo shook her head, she really didn't understand what Qin Yun thought.
"The Divine Decree has arrived," a shrill voice came from outside.
Jian Mo glanced over and saw Qi Yuan walking in front, followed by an old eunuch holding a holy decree.
"Miss Jane, our family is ordered by the emperor to make a decree," the eunuch said to Jian Mo.
Jian Mo looked at Qi Yuan inexplicably.
Qi Yuan stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, sat down and put Jian Mo on his lap.
Jian Mo was really frightened, and blushed as she watched everyone look at her.
"Announce it," Qi Yuan commanded the old eunuch.
"Yes" The old eunuch was shocked in his heart, this regent was too arrogant to come up with such a way in order to prevent this princess from saluting, but the eunuch thought about Qi Yuan's current power and didn't say anything.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: There is a female Jian Mo gentle and generous, skilled and generous, outstanding appearance, you will be married to the regent as the princess, all etiquette, handed over to the Ministry of Rites and Qintian Supervisor Zheng to jointly manage, choose three months after the marriage, Qin this!"
The steward stepped forward to receive the order, and the eunuch finished reading it and left.
"Congratulations to the princess, princess" all knelt on the ground and cheered in unison.
"Princess? I? Jian Mo pointed at herself, and then pointed at Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan looked at Jian Mo's stupid appearance and smiled dotingly.
"Right"
Jian Mo looked at the holy decree in the butler's hand and smiled.
As soon as this news came out, the whole city was in an uproar. Everyone scrambled to discuss, all curious about this future princess regent.
At the same moment, Qin Yun was sitting in the Qinglou, holding a wine jug in his hand, his clothes were half-untied, and the corners of his eyes were hooked, which made the women's hearts skip a beat.
But no one dared to step forward, and everyone knew that their boss was the least disturbing when he was drinking.
Qin Yun looked in the direction of the Regent's Mansion through the window, his expression inexplicable.
In the days to come, Jian Mo felt a strange atmosphere in the palace. She always felt that the people in the house changed quickly, and Qi Yuan didn't allow her to go out. Qi Yuan didn't tell her, she didn't ask, she ate and drank every day, and the flesh on her body grew a lot.
Smack-
"Didn't so many people succeed?" Nan Muxuan threw the teacup angrily.
"The palace is too heavily guarded, and the people sent are all martial arts masters," replied the secret guard underneath.
"In addition, I got the news that the guards who escorted the woman who smashed the princess not long ago were all killed, and the cause of death is unknown."
"What!" Nan Muxuan looked up, unable to figure out who would kill these little guards.
Thinking of the disappeared woman, a guess flashed in Nan Muxuan's mind, could that woman be the one in Qi Yuan's mansion.
Nan Muxuan linked the time together, and the more he thought about it, the more coincidental it became, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"I've seen that female prison officer."
"Missing," the Dark Guard bowed his head.
"What" Nan Muxuan's muscles burst out, he saw the death of this woman, the disappearance of the missing, and became more and more sure in his heart, but he also knew that it would be difficult to bring down Qi Yuan with this.
Nan Muxuan suddenly felt uneasy, something was changing. He did it so many times without calculating Qi Yuan, and besides, it was impossible for Qi Yuan not to know what he had done, and he just disdained the throne if he didn't look for him.
"What about Nan Lingxue," Nan Muxuan suddenly looked up and asked.
"I haven't been out of the Mingqi Pavilion since the day the regent entered the palace."
Nan Muxuan frowned, did she give up?
"Send someone to find out again"
"Yes"
The dark guard retreated, Nan Muxuan looked outside, his hands clenched and his heart was full of unwillingness, did he have to live in the shadow of Qi Yuan all the time?
At the same time that Nan Muxuan was unwilling, Shangguan Qi also received a secret letter.
The letter said that the woman was Liu Qingruo, and according to the time, it was not long after she entered the palace, Nan Muxuan hid it well, and Prime Minister Shangguan also inquired about the news only to get the news.
After Shangguan Qi read it carefully, his face became more and more pale, and it took a long time to react.
She touched her belly, and it turned out that her unborn child was actually harmed by Nan Muxuan. Soon after marrying into the palace, she quickly became pregnant, and she was full of anticipation for the child.
When it was almost three months, the child was lost, and the imperial doctor said that she was too tired, and she didn't doubt it when she saw Nan Muxuan's grief-stricken appearance, but now think about it carefully, she knew that there was a constant struggle in the palace, and how many children died before they were born, so how careful she was when she was pregnant, and where did she say that she was tired.
Shangguan Qi couldn't control the grief in his heart and burst into tears. The letter also said that the thing that made her abort was a colorless and odorless thing from the Western Regions, and the person who brought it was that Liu Qingruo.
Shangguan Qi looked at the side of the main hall, her eyes were resentful, her love for Nan Muxuan dissipated, and she swore that she would never let these two people go.
A few days later, Liu Qingruo, who didn't know that she was hated by Shangguan Qi, was taken away in a coma in the room, and when she woke up, she found herself in a strange room, her whole body ached, and she immediately turned pale, got dressed and stumbled over.
After serving Nan Muxuan as usual and finishing breakfast, Shangguan Qi looked at Nan Muxuan's departing figure and gradually turned cold, these days she is laughing at how her previous self could be so stupid, this man obviously did not show a trace of love to her in his eyes.
took out an envelope from his sleeve informing him of the success, and after reading it, Shangguan Qi smiled and burned it.
Mingqi Pavilion –
"Princess, the weather is fine today, let's go out for a walk" The green kite knocked on the door.
"Don't go," Nan Lingxue's slightly weak voice came from inside.
The green kite sighed, worried that the princess would be sick if she was locked up in her room all day.
"That'...... The Regent's Wedding," Green Kite asked in a tentative whisper.
The door opened, and Nan Lingxue, who was pale, squinted her eyes in the sunlight.
"That's right...... Big Wedding ...... He's going to get married," Nan Lingxue looked dumbfounded and said intermittently.
The "princess" green kite held her by the hand.
"Right...... They can't be married,...... Can't" Nan Lingxue suddenly shouted, the hatred in her eyes made the green kite frightened.
"As long as the woman is dead...... As long as she is dead, Qi Yuan will be mine......"
After saying that, he ran back to the room and took out a packet of medicine and handed it to the green kite.
"Green Kite, you're going to help me, aren't you?"
The green kite looked at the crazy Nan Lingxue, her eyes were red, she grew up with the princess, and the princess has always treated her well.
"Good" green kite took it.
"Thank you...... Thank you" Nan Lingxue hugged the green kite.
At this time, the conversation between the master and servant was already on Qi Yuan's case.
Qi Yuan turned his back and looked out the window gently, there was a newly built garden, and Jian Mo was happily sitting on the swing rack.
Qi Yuan turned to look at the things on the case, his eyes were cold, he didn't care about the rest, but with the idea that she shouldn't move, she should pay the price.
Approaching the wedding, Jian Mo is getting more and more nervous, she doesn't know if the wedding dress can be worn with the flesh on her body, she tries hard to lose weight, but the result is no different.
When Qi Yuan brought up the wedding dress, Jian Mo was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
