Chapter Eighty-Three: Jing Ning Forced Marriage
"Since it's a flower-viewing feast, why don't you use flowers as the theme?" Li Muyang's eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile, and he said heartlessly, "This is the right time." ”
Li Muchen's brows furrowed, but he didn't speak. His little brother never seemed to know what it meant to be modest and low-key.
He is a stunned young man, no matter when and where, he doesn't know the truth of shooting the first bird, and his favorite stupid thing to do is to toss blindly.
"The proposal of the second prince is very good," the eldest princess smiled Yan Yan, "Everyone here is my young talent from Dongqi, and he must be full of thoughts and thoughts. ”
Everyone laughed implicitly, but did not speak. Only Li Muyang couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said very complacently: "Thank you for the compliment, eldest princess." ”
Li Muchen couldn't bear it anymore, so he gave Li Muyang a kick.
"Why did my brother kick me, but what did I say wrong?"
Li Muyang's voice was not loud, but everyone still heard it clearly, Li Muchen was powerless to look at the sky, and he couldn't wait to kick this embarrassing thing out of the back garden.
"Brother, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Brother, are you angry with me again?"
Li Muyang asked one question after another, and successfully pushed Li Muchen to the forefront.
Everyone had a good look on their faces, and even the taciturn Fifth Prince cast a puzzled look at him.
The eldest princess asked with a smile, "Grand Master Li, do you have a better proposal?" ”
Li Muchen hurriedly got up and replied respectfully, "Returning to the princess, the minister has no objection." It's just that the younger brother is stubborn, and please don't blame the princess. ”
Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry also hurriedly said: "The eldest princess, the young son is stubborn, please don't blame the eldest princess." ”
"The second son is outspoken, and Bengong likes it very much. The eldest prince doesn't need to be nervous, this palace is not a person who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, and it's not so fierce. ”
When Li Muchen heard this, his face turned white, and he hurriedly saluted, "The minister doesn't dare." ”
"I heard that the eldest prince and Miss Liu have a marriage contract, I don't know when they will get married?"
Hearing Liu Yu'er's name, Li Muchen's face froze, and then he returned to his naturalness, gently but indifferently, "This matter still needs to be decided by my father." ”
"The eldest prince sit down, since it is a banquet, there is no need to be restrained."
Li Muchen was very restrained, he didn't want to participate in this banquet, but his mother had to force him to come.
Whether it is the county lord of Jingning or Liu Yu'er, it is not the white moonlight in his heart.
His heart, his eyes, from beginning to end, only the existence of the moonlight, other women, he didn't care.
"Imperial aunt, Imperial Sister Jingning is a talented woman who deserves the name of Dongqi, it is better to call her out, I think everyone here wants to see the demeanor of the county lord."
The eldest princess pursed her lips and was silent, Qi Xiyu was thinking about what wishful thinking in her heart, she knew it.
She didn't like Qi Xiyu, not because her biological mother was from a humble background, but because she didn't like his deep nature.
It's just that now, in front of everyone, she can't lose his face.
"Go and bring the county lord."
Qi Xiyu said gently and politely: "Thank you Aunt Huang." ”
"Brother, why are you sullen?" Li Muyang approached Li Muchen and asked curiously, "Don't say you don't, I can see it." ”
Li Muchen glanced at him expressionlessly, "You stay away from me, don't make trouble again, I won't be like this." ”
Li Muyang touched his nose, "But brother, I didn't cause trouble, but you are still angry." ”
"Take a step back."
Li Muyang saw his brother's gloomy face, and stepped back a little. However, before Li Muchen could breathe fresh air, he had a huge head before meeting.
"Brother, I always feel that you have something on your mind, can you tell me, and I can give you ideas."
Li Muchen was silent, and he was not sensitive to his kindness.
"Brother, you have something to say."
Li Muchen was annoyed by being disturbed, his face sank like water, and he couldn't wait to sew his tongue-ridden mouth with the embroidery needle.
"Shut up!"
The people around were whispering, and from time to time they gave a look, which made Li Muchen, who was very thin-skinned, angry.
"Hey, brother, why is your face so red, but your body is sick?"
Li Muyang was shocked, even the eldest princess was shocked at this time.
"Eldest son, but you're not feeling well?"
Li Muchen secretly greeted Li Muyang from head to foot, gritting his teeth with hatred.
Before he could answer, he only heard Qi Xiyu suddenly say, "Imperial Sister Jingning, you are here." ”
"Hello Fifth Emperor Brother." Jing Ning blessed her body slightly, she raised her head, looked at the eldest princess's deep eyes, and indifferently asked for peace: "Hello mother." ”
"Sit down."
Jing Ning sat down obediently and said no more.
However, the beauty is on the side, how can Qi Xiyu let go of the time with him.
"In order to catch a glimpse of the royal sister's fairy posture, the imperial brother specially rushed over from the palace. Today, I look at it, the first beauty in the capital really lives up to her name. ”
Jing Ning's face turned pale and even a little ugly when she heard this.
She said indifferently: "Brother Huang doesn't know, Your Majesty Chrysostom Yuyan, the first beauty in the capital, is Lu Anjin, the only daughter of the prefect of Yinnan." ”
Hearing Lu Anjin's name, Li Muchen instinctively raised his head, and when he saw Li Muyang's puzzled gaze, he realized his gaffe and lowered his head silently.
"Lu Anjin? The king had never heard of her name. ”
Jing Ning said coldly: "The imperial brother did not participate in the exquisite feast, so naturally I don't know." ”
That woman is the woman that Brother Yun Huang took the initiative to ask to marry, how can she be, how can she be, how can she be!
The white little hands were clenched into fists, and the green tendons were exposed, looking particularly hideous.
"Imperial sister," Qi Xiyu noticed her abnormality and asked with concern, "Why is your face so bad, but you are not feeling well?" ”
Jing Ning shook her head slowly, "Jing Ning is fine, let the imperial brother worry about it." ”
"Why does the royal sister have to be like this, if she is unwell, don't force it." He looked at Jing Ning affectionately, and saw that she was still sick, and he didn't mean to talk, and he didn't look up with his face.
He seemed to suddenly think of something, and said gently and detachedly: "If Master Li is unwell, go and see it as soon as possible, don't be reluctant." ”
Mr. Li?
Jing Ning's mind moved, she raised her eyes, and saw Li Muchen's handsome face that was not bright.
She had heard Liu Yu'er mention before that the man Lu Anjin had liked before was Li Muchen, the eldest son of the Ministry of Works.
Today, I saw that this Li Muchen really looked good, with picturesque eyebrows and gentle eyes. I heard that he was also very mild-mannered, and he was very clean in private.
This is in the noble son of the capital, it is simply a mudslide in the clear stream.
Jing Ning turned her head to look at the eldest princess, and saw that she was talking to Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Works, and her words and demeanor were also very harmonious.
Her eyes sparkled slightly, and she already had a plan in her heart.
"Mother," Jing Ning suddenly walked in front of the eldest princess, and said calmly under the smiling eyes of the ladies: "My daughter wants to talk to the eldest prince Li alone, I don't know if my mother can do it." ”
The eldest princess raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the county lord of Jingning in surprise, and asked in a low voice, "Grand Prince Li?" ”
"Exactly."
The eldest princess looked at Li Muchen, who was confused, and asked suspiciously, "When did Jingning and Grand Prince Li intersect, why don't you know this palace." ”
The county lord of Jingning said generously: "My daughter and Li Gongzi are not familiar with each other, so I asked my mother to allow us to talk about it alone!" ”
Before the eldest princess could reply, Qi Xiyu couldn't sit still, his face was ugly, and there was a tendency of black clouds to overwhelm the city.
"Aunt Huang, Jingning, absolutely not."
The county lord of Jingning turned around, looked at him directly, and asked indifferently, "Why not?" ”
Qi Xiyu's face sank like the bottom of a pot, "Lonely men and widows are in the same room, what kind of system is it?" ”
Li Muchen also hurriedly said: "The fifth prince is reasonable, and he also asks the county lord to act cautiously." ”
The county lord of Jingning paced in front of Li Muchen, looked at him fixedly, and said with a smile: "The county lord heard that Li Gongzi and Miss Liu had a marriage contract for a long time, and the reason why they have not married for a long time is because Li Gongzi is unwilling. I don't know if there is such a thing? ”
Li Muchen said expressionlessly: "This is the minister's family matter, please forgive the minister for having nothing to say." ”
He didn't admit it or deny it, but Jing Ning knew in his heart, it seemed that this Li Dagongzi had not forgotten that Lu Anjin.
She turned around and threw a thunderbolt at everyone with a smile, "Mother, since today is a delicate banquet for her daughter, the daughter must not waste her mother's hard work." ”
The eldest princess frowned, looking at Jing Ning with a light smile, not knowing what kind of medicine she was selling in this gourd.
"What do you mean?"
"Just now, my daughter has found the person she likes, and wants to marry him as a wife, and I ask my mother to fulfill it!"
Qi Xiyu looked at everyone present with a gloomy face, murderous.
The eldest princess didn't have any joy on her face, and the sudden change in tranquility made her sit still.
There must be a demon when things go wrong, and Jing Ning's move is too abnormal.
"Fangcai?"
"Yes, Fangcai."
The eldest princess looked serious and asked very majestically, "Tell this palace, who is your favorite person?" ”
Li Muchen suddenly became nervous, he always felt that the behavior of the county lord of Jingning was a little abrupt, but he must not make any moths.
When people are unlucky, it is really a house leak that happens to rain overnight, and the more you don't want to see something, the more something will happen.
I saw that the county lord of Jingning suddenly walked in front of Li Muchen, smiled brightly, and said very heartily: "The person my daughter likes is Li Gongzi." ”
"County Lord, the minister has a marriage contract..."
The county lord of Jingning said lightly: "Retreat." ”
Li Muchen was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head, "County Lord, I have so many excellent men in Dongqi..."
"But the county lord just wants to marry you."
Li Muchen almost vomited blood, they didn't know each other at all, just by saying a few words, she would not marry him, let alone anything about love at first sight, it was pure nonsense.
He didn't want to be wronged, and he wore a green hat on his head all day.
Qi Xiyu stared at Li Muchen for a moment, his cold gaze was like a sharp knife, and he hated to cut him with a thousand knives.
Li Muchen was like a man on his back, he didn't pay attention to the county lord of Jingning, walked quickly to the eldest princess, made a big salute, and then said: "Princess, the little minister can win the favor of the county lord, and he is flattered." It's just that the minister already has a marriage contract, please forgive the minister for not being able to..."
The voice of the lord of Jingning County was as cold as ice, "What does the prince mean is that the lord of this county is not as good as that Liu Yu'er?" ”
Li Muchen replied calmly: "The county lord is too worried, and the minister has no such intention." ”
"Then why not?"
Li Muchen replied seriously, "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't, and I also ask the county lord Haihan." ”
"Why not?"
Li Muchen was silent for a moment, and then said: "The minister's ability is shallow, and he can't bring happiness to the county lord." ”
Jing Ning looked at him with a smile, "The meaning of the child's words is that he doesn't like the lord of this county." ”
"Xiao Chen doesn't dare!"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all see their silent self in each other's eyes.
"What if the lord of the county has to marry you?"
Li Muchen pursed her lips and said nothing, she is a king, he is a minister, if she insists on marrying, he is really helpless.
There was silence in the garden, and it was no longer as lively as before.
Jing Ning didn't care about Li Muchen's silent refusal, she turned around and looked at the eldest princess with a smile, "Mother, my daughter has found her favorite husband, I don't know if my mother is still satisfied?" ”
