Chapter 157: A Trap on the Birthday Banquet
After Ning Shangmo and Feiyunshu returned to the palace, they happened to meet Ming Qingyan who was waiting at the door.
Seeing that Ning Shangmo came back safely, he should have been happy, but Ming Qingyan frowned.
As soon as he saw Ming Qingyan's expression, Ning Shangmo hurriedly grabbed Feiyunshu, Ming Qingyan was clearly his father-in-law, why did he always feel as if he had found a father?
Feiyunshu also saw Ming Qingyan's expression, and knew that Ning Shangmo had no good fruit to eat, Feiyunshu was in Ming Qingyan's eyes that seemed to be able to kill, and pushed Ning Shangmo's hand away from his arm very doggedly, "I won't bother you little two," said and glanced at Ning Shangmo with a self-conscious look, and quickly slipped away.
Ning Shangmo saw that Feiyunshu couldn't count on it, and there was no one else around, so he ran to Ming Qingyan's side and pretended to be aggrieved.
"Xianggong, can you get up?" Looking at Ning Shangmo's eyes, Ming Qingyan suddenly felt that he couldn't say anything.
"Xianggong, I was wrong!" Ning Shangmo saw that Ming Qingyan didn't speak, and knew that Ming Qingyan was still angry that he was going out alone at night.
"Do you know what's wrong?"
Seeing that Ming spoke lightly, Ning Shangmo's eyes lit up, "Of course I know it's wrong, Xianggong, don't be angry!" ”
"That's it, go back to sleep!" Ming Qingyan touched Ning Shangmo's head, and then asked Ning Shangmo to go back to rest.
In fact, he also knew that if Ning Shangmo didn't figure out these things, he was afraid that he would not be able to go when the time came.
The next day, Ning Shangmo got up early in the morning, after all, there was only one day left before the Queen Mother's birthday. So you have to prepare well these days.
But when Ning Shangmo was walking around the palace, he always felt that someone was watching him, but every time he turned his head, there was no one behind him except for those palace maids and eunuchs who were in charge of sprinkling and sweeping.
"Yun Shu, why do I always feel that someone is staring at me from behind?" Ning Shangmo felt more and more that this matter was real, so he couldn't help but tell Fei Yunshu.
But after hearing this, Fei Yunshu laughed a few times and then stopped talking.
The day passed quickly, and on the day of the Queen Mother's birthday, Ning Shangmo got up early to let Zhuye dress himself.
After a while, a little palace maid came over and gave Ning Shangmo a sachet, saying that it was an auspicious gift to the Queen Mother, and everyone asked to wear it.
After everything was ready, Ning Shangmo went outside the hall, waiting for Feiyun Shuming to say a few of them lightly, but he didn't expect that when she passed, Ming said lightly that they were all ready and were already waiting for her.
This really surprised Ning Shangmo, Ning Shangmo looked at it, and several of them all wore the sachet sent by the palace maid without exception.
She also deliberately took it and took a look, only the color was different, and the others were the same, but Ning Shangmo always felt a little uncomfortable when she smelled her sachet, but she didn't care.
Today, the palace is full of lights, and it is very lively.
Ning Shangmo and the others were also very happy, mainly because after today, they would be able to play the Dao Hui Daling.
In Ming's words, Ning Shangmo could finally walk sideways.
When they arrived at the main hall where the banquet had been set up early in the morning, they went to the Queen Mother one by one to salute and then sat down where they should have been seated.
Ning Shangmo had already prepared the birthday gift of the Queen Mother, and he also presented it at this moment.
Ning Shangmo is also known as half of Daling's money mountain, so what Ning Shangmo took out his hand is naturally not ordinary. In addition, Ning Shangmo is not like other women, she never restrains herself, so her clever mouth also makes the Queen Mother very happy.
"Queen Mother, now that the atmosphere is just right, why don't you call my women's escort team to perform for everyone?" Chu Yue said to the Queen Mother, but his eyes drifted to Ning Shangmo from time to time, and Ning Shangmo just didn't see it and ignored it, "Last time in the Imperial Brother's Mansion, I originally wanted them to perform, but then there were some situations that I couldn't let the eldest princess of Da Ling see, it's a pity, now it's better to take this opportunity——"
The Queen Mother was also on the rise, and he knew that Chu Yue's women's escort team performed very well, so he agreed.
Ning Shangmo thought that he had made it clear to Chu Yue, and he would not bother her again, but he didn't expect that Chu Yue would be on the same page as her.
"Eldest princess, I didn't have a chance to let you watch the women's escort performance last time, but this time, I finally have a chance!"
Regarding Chu Yue's words, Ning Shangmo didn't know what to say, so he only smiled, which could be regarded as a response to Chu Yue.
But Chu Yue was not annoyed, at least she was willing to laugh to herself now.
The women's escort team was soon summoned, it turned out that they were good at sword dance, and sure enough, the dance was graceful, the key was that the woman's softness neutralized the sharpness of the sword, Ning Shangmo suddenly saw two familiar figures there, both covering their faces with veils, and there seemed to be looming scars in them.
Ning Shangmo kept staring at the two of them, and when the two of them turned around, their eyes also fell on Ning Shangmo's body intentionally or unintentionally.
Ning Shangmo expected that they would not dare to assassinate her here, after all, there were so many people here, and the two of them had no one to answer, otherwise it would not be just the two of them who missed such a good opportunity that night, and the guards were waiting outside the hall at any time, and there were many people in the hall who could practice martial arts.
But Ning Shangmo didn't believe that they would watch him return to Daling, so there would definitely be small movements, it would depend on what tricks the two of them could play.
Ning Shangmo was bored sitting here, but she didn't like to watch dancing and dancing, so she had to eat hard.
Ming Qingyan and Ning Shangmo were not at the same table, he looked at Ning Shangmo through the women's escort, and knew that she was boring, and now that she was eating alone and depressed, it was time to sharpen her temperament.
After a while, the crown princess stepped forward and said that not long ago, the palace people invited a Beimeng chef to come over, and the Beimeng food was very delicious, so she specially asked the master to make it today.
After the crown princess finished speaking, a group of palace maids were dressed up in Beimeng's costumes, each carrying a plate high above their heads, and then going to serve the meal one by one.
The palace maid who served Ning Shangmo food glanced at Ning Shangmo when she came over, which made Ning Shangmo have an ominous premonition, this meal should not be poisoned, right? Do you want to eat it yourself?
But before Ning Shangmo could finish thinking about it, the facts proved that she was too worried.
The palace maid accidentally tripped when she came over, and then all the things on the plate were spilled on Ning Shangmo's dress.
When the palace maid saw it, she was immediately frightened, "The eldest princess spares her life, the slave maid didn't mean it, beg the eldest princess to spare her life!" ”
"Presumptuous, things that don't have long eyes, pull down the cane and kill!" Seeing this situation, the queen spoke, this maid is really not long-sighted, and she actually disturbed Ning Shangmo, you know, this is a guest invited from Daling.
Although she spilled the food on herself, Ning Shangmo felt that the cane was too ruthless, no matter what, he would not be guilty of death!
"Queen Mother, today is the birthday of the Queen Mother, it's not appropriate to do this, this princess thinks that she should do more good deeds and accumulate virtue, or spare her!"
The queen was originally on the same side as Ning Shangmo, and when Ning Shangmo said this, of course she didn't care, so the queen asked the queen mother again, and the queen mother also agreed to spare the palace maid.
", don't thank the eldest princess yet!"
After listening to the queen's words, the little palace maid hurriedly leaned down to Ning Shangmo's side, "Thank you for the eldest princess for saving her life!" ”
"Well, let's go down!" Ning Shangmo let him go, but when he got up and withdrew, Ning Shangmo saw that she had been staring at him, with an indescribable meaning in her eyes.
Although this matter was resolved, Ning Shangmo's clothes were really unwearable. Just now, because of those Northern Mongolian foods, now Ning Shangmo is covered with stains.
"Crown princess, go and take the eldest princess to the next room to change clothes!"
"The daughter-in-law obeys," After speaking, the crown princess walked over and prepared to take Ning Shangmo.
Ning Shangmo glanced at Ming and said lightly, he was looking at her with an inquiring look at her at the moment, Ning Shangmo nodded at him to reassure him, and then he followed.
After arriving at the room that had been prepared in advance for the guests, the princess went out.
Ning Shangmo looked at it, the clothes had already been prepared, and it seemed that all this had been expected by someone a long time ago.
She picked up the dress, went inside to change, and when she was picking up the sachet, she suddenly thought of something, and then Ning Shangmo dipped the sachet into the hand basin next to her.
After the sachet was soaked in water, there was no smell, and Ning Shangmo felt a little better.
But as soon as she had changed her clothes, she heard the door being pushed open, and then she heard a swaying footsteps.
She was subconsciously alert, and then hid behind the screen.
When the man came, she quickly pulled off a hairpin, and a twisted hairpin went straight to the man's neck.
But Ning Shangmo stopped and looked, the person who came was Fei Yunshu, because of Fei Yunshu's identity, so she didn't know where Yun Shu went when she was eating, but she didn't expect that why did she come here now?
"Yun Shu, why are you here?" Fei Yunshu's face was covered with two blushes, and her body was full of alcohol, why did she drink so much?
"It's hot, it's hot!" Fei Yunshu said that he was about to reach out and tear the clothes on his body.
Ning Shangmo pressed her hand, she already understood, this was a trap, a trap that others had given her and Feiyun Shu.
"Yun Shu, wake up, Yun Shu!" Ning Shangmo called her anxiously, what she was most worried about now was that Fei Yunshu tore her clothes when she was unconscious, after all, if she was a person who had practiced martial arts since she was a child, she couldn't stop her.
There was no way, Ning Shangmo had no choice but to click on Feiyunshu's sleeping hole, and seeing that she had fallen asleep, he was a little relieved.
Touched Fei Yunshu's forehead, she didn't have a fever, why was her whole body so hot, she pinched Yun Shu's wrist and checked her pulse, and immediately understood.
Then you might as well do it.
