Chapter 16: The Light of the Eyes
The second prince's name is Chen, the word Beichen, just for this name, I heard that Queen Xue also had a ruthless quarrel with the emperor for a while, saying that the word "Chen" has always meant the king, where Beichen is located, the pivot of the stars and heavens, and it refers to the residence of the emperor.
The son of a little concubine, how can he be qualified to use this name.
But even though the queen strongly objected, Mo Chen's name was still decided. The emperor's golden mouth said that no one can change it, which shows that he really values this son and really likes it.
He had something to say, Jiang Mengyun only didn't know, and bowed down and didn't dare to say a word.
Mo Beichen didn't talk to others, ignored Mo Xin'er again, and walked away with people.
King Qi had been watching from the sidelines and had not made a sound, but his eyes slowly fell on Jiang Mengyun.
He didn't have much expression on his face, but the eyes that looked at her were extremely complicated, including pain, pity, helpless pampering, and some indescribable struggles. But it was only for a moment, and he looked away again, and no one noticed.
Jiang Mengyun took a deep breath, ignored the comments of others, and sat down quietly.
The tea that King Qi just cooked was already a little cold, and it was originally sweet, but now it has been soaked in water for a long time, and it has added a little bitterness, but it makes people more willing to taste it slowly, probably just like life.
The farce is over, and the celebration banquet has to go on as usual.
The palace has been busy for so long to prepare a proper feast, so naturally it can't be disrupted because of a few small enemy countries.
Unlike the Ning Kingdom, the Imperial Garden of the Great Liang Kingdom is very large, almost catching up with an independent garden.
Jiang Mengyun's place is a little bit inside, and then there is a big circle across the wall, and there are all soldiers who have won this battle and made meritorious contributions there.
Mo Beichen had just come to get someone before, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little worried when they saw him again, and he himself didn't like to be with these children of the family, so he called Prince Rui after sitting for a while, and went out to drink and eat meat with the soldiers outside.
Although it was a happy event, the emperor was obviously not in the mood, and only said a few words to the rare King Qi, and then handed over the place to the second princess, saying that he was going to the harem to see Concubine Xie, and he left after a while.
At this moment, the originally somewhat depressed imperial garden became lively.
Those sons who only cared about drinking tea with their heads bored before chatted again, stretching out their chopsticks to taste the meals of the imperial kitchen in the palace, while whispering a few words from time to time.
The ladies and ladies here also greeted each other, and some of them had already stood up and walked towards their familiar sisters.
Jiang Mengyun sat in the pavilion and ate in a regular manner, listening to the louder and louder discussions below, and remained silent.
But Mo Xin'er finally couldn't help it, and sat down in front of her with a small wine glass: "Sister Jiang, what happened just now?" ”
said that the palace banquet was presided over by the queen mother, but there was no one at this moment, the prince's brother didn't mention it, and even Concubine Xie didn't come, which was too wrong.
She didn't know what was going on, but on such an important occasion, her father only brought the second brother and the second sister, and he was even lukewarm to her, and he didn't even say a word to her from beginning to end.
Could it be that the prince's brother has done something ridiculous again?
At this moment, no one can ask, only Jiang Mengyun looks at it and knows the inside story, so she has to condescend again and come to inquire about the news in person.
Fortunately, Jiang Mengyun is a clay man's temper, although she has never given her a good face before, but she has never held grudges, plus Fang Cai's appearance, Mo Xin'er feels that they have also worked together with the same enemy.
Just as he was about to listen carefully to what she had told about the whole thing, he saw Jiang Mengyun pause slightly, and looked at her with an embarrassed expression: "Princess, this matter is really hard to say." ”
Mo Xin'er glared and was anxious: "Why is it difficult to say, why is it difficult to say?" In this way, if you really feel that it is difficult to say it, you can say it slowly, and say it cryptically, it doesn't matter if I can understand it! ”
Jiang Mengyun cleared his throat, only said with a sad face: "Oh, it's really not ......"
"Don't be ignorant!" The third princess suddenly jumped up, as if she was going to come forward and tear Jiang Mengyun's mouth in the next moment. But she dared to beat Ming Xia randomly, but she didn't dare to really move Jiang Mengyun, so she could only stare at her eyes fiercely: "If you don't answer the question, why, do you look down on this princess?" ”
"How can this be?"
Jiang Mengyun hurriedly bowed down and apologized: "If the princess really wants to know the inside story, it is better to ask her aunt in person after the banquet." You have also seen the situation just now, the second prince is aggressive to take people, that Ming Xia has not yet been convicted, and what she said is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, this ......"
In Mo Xin'er's complicated and tangled gaze, Jiang Mengyun swallowed his saliva carefully: "Spreading falsehoods, wouldn't it be as disgusting as that Mingxia, in case others know about it again......
……
Bah! She thought this clay man's temper was a good one before, but it turned out that where is this clay man's temper, this is clearly a mess of mud! The third princess blocked her throat in one breath, and she almost didn't suffocate to death.
She stretched her face and spat to herself.
It is said that strategists are difficult to deal with, where is this difficult to deal with? It's even worse than the smelly, hard stone!
Mo Xin'er was depressed when she thought about it, and she didn't know if Jiang Mengyun was really afraid or pretentious, she didn't tell others about this, but told her that she was a princess, and she could not spread it again? Or is it because you see that you have just beaten Mingxia, so you are afraid of becoming such a ghost?
But even if she is afraid, she should say it word for word!
Mo Xin'er was so angry that she suddenly saw Jiang Mengyun's plain clothes out of the corner of her eyes, and she was even more angry: "If you don't say it, forget it, but Sister Jiang, you said that you would wear a mourning dress to someone on your big day, it's really unlucky!" If you want me to say, if something really happened to the queen mother and the prince's brother, you will also be restrained! ”
This Jiang Mengyun, she didn't feel anything when she looked at it, but now she really doesn't like it.
On the one hand, the queen mother treats her more than her own daughter, and her attitude towards the world is also particularly annoying. Unlike others, this Jiang Mengyun looks cautious, but she always gives people a sense of being on top of things, except for her father and mother, she is always polite and detached from everyone else in the palace.
No, to be more precise, she was the same with her father and queen mother, respectful but not close, loyal but not enthusiastic.
She is the daughter of a criminal minister of Ningguo, the only remaining seedling of the Jiang family, who fled to Daliang alone, obviously to rely on them to live, but now she doesn't take the initiative to curry favor, the princess deigns to talk to her, she still spits, it's unbearable!
Why is she so proud? The third princess really couldn't figure out whether it was based on her annoying three-inch incorruptible tongue, or her pretentious appearance at the moment.
Daliang is full of talents, when will it depend on an outsider!
