It didn't take long for the reason why the Xiluo Kingdom did not move after capturing Mocheng spread throughout the Nanyue Kingdom - I heard that it was the Xiluo Emperor who was assassinated.

But Mu Lingkong knew a little more detail, Emperor Xiluo had already died on the night of his assassination, compared to the Nanyue Kingdom, Emperor Xiluo had more than a dozen adult princes under his knees, and he immediately stirred up the turmoil in the court, and he didn't care about the eastward expedition to the Nanyue Kingdom at all.

But peace is only temporary, sooner or later the Xiluo Kingdom will resume war, and the Nanyue Kingdom will immediately arrange for the main general to go to the border to preside over the overall situation.

Just when Mu Lingkong, like everyone else, thought that the master this time would be Feng Mingzhen, Feng Minghao, the king of Chang, suddenly invited himself to be the commander, and he was about to drive Xiluo out of Mocheng.

A prince who has never led soldiers to the battlefield, the emperor actually approved it.

That night, as Mu Lingkong expected, His Royal Highness the Prince, who should have been thinking about the wall in the East Palace, appeared in her boudoir dressed in moonlight and graceful.

She rolled her eyelids in surprise, "What's going on today?" ”

Feng Mingzhen lifted the curtain of the hanging ground, walked to the edge of the bed familiarly, sat down on the edge of the bed, stretched his waist, and lazily fell back on Mu Lingkong's legs, "I'm very idle now, I'm afraid I'll come to disturb you from time to time!" ”

He was dressed in white as usual today, but compared to the usual jade crown, he only tied a strand of hair at the back of his head today, and the snow-white hairband scattered on Mu Lingkong's legs along with the long black hair, like black satin, the brilliance flowed.

Mu Lingkong couldn't help but reach out and touch his hair with Leng Yue Qinghui, Feng Mingzhen noticed it and squinted at her slightly, the black hair swept through her fingertips like flowing water, and gently fell on his cheeks, and the fairy-like person suddenly brought a bit of lazy demons.

She looked at it for a long time, then suddenly leaned up close to his cheek, lightly imprinted a kiss on the corner of his smiling lips, paused and slowly moved to the center of his lips.

Feng Ming's eyes were really bright like a lake with falling stars, he felt Mu Lingkong's pecking kiss on his lips, his smile became stronger and stronger, and finally turned against the guest, clasped the back of her head, deepened the kiss, and only heard ambiguous sounds in the tent with a warm fragrance for a while.

After a while, Mu Lingkong panted and pushed him away, touched his red and swollen lips with the back of his hand, and said angrily, "You are really a hooligan!" ”

Feng Mingzhen was pushed away by her, and fell on the bed, his eyes full of innocence, "Obviously, you kissed it first!" ”

"So, you just have to do whatever you want!"

Feng Mingzhen looked at her in amazement, and suddenly chuckled, "Obey, my Majesty the Empress!" ”

Mu Lingkong's heartbeat increased suddenly, and he carefully looked at the expression on his face, and was relieved to see that he was just joking, and lay side by side on the bed next to him.

"Why did I send you to the border this time, what are you going to do later?"

Feng Mingzhen looked at the top of the tent and said slowly, "If you don't go, you don't go, just do something else!" ”

"What's the matter?"

Feng Mingzhen looked sideways at Mu Lingkong, "Dealing with Meng Huai'an, isn't this what you have always hoped for?" ”

Mu Lingkong met his dark and serious eyes, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Feng Mingzhen turned to something else, "By the way, if you are free tomorrow night, come to Qiuyue Lake!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"You'll know when you're here!" Feng Mingzhen deliberately sold a pass.

In the evening of the next day, Mu Lingkong cleaned up and was about to go out with Dongxue and Qingli, but when he arrived at the door, he was suddenly stopped by the housekeeper Meng Ze, "Miss, are you going to go out?" ”

Mu Lingkong nodded and was about to bypass him, but Meng Ze's footsteps turned, and he stopped in front again, "Miss, you need to eat in the mansion tonight!" ”

"Why?" Mu Lingkong frowned, she had always acted freely in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she had never been stopped like this.

Meng Ze carefully raised his eyes to look at her face, and was about to say something, when Dong Xue behind her suddenly showed an epiphany expression and patted his head, "Miss, it's your ...... today"

Mu Lingkong also remembered, "Today is my birthday!" ”

Meng Ze nodded again and again, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, I don't know why, when the current eldest lady looked at him with a sinking face, it always made his heart tremble unconsciously.

Mu Lingkong smiled apologetically, "Look at how I've been doing this day, is there a family banquet tonight?" ”

Meng Ze nodded again.

"So," Mu Lingkong turned around, "Then I'll finish dinner in the mansion and then go out!" ”

Dongxue followed behind Mu Lingkong and whispered, "It's the slave's fault, the slave almost forgot on such an important day as Miss'......s birthday."

Mu Lingkong waved his hand, "It's not a big deal!" ”

When a few people walked into the hall, it was rare to see Meng Huai'an actually there, he sat in the main seat, and waved at Mu Lingkong, "Qing'er come here!" ”

Mu Lingkong didn't move, "Father is also there!?" It's just a small birthday, and my father has a lot of opportunities, so I really don't have to do this to be a person. ”

Meng Huai'an said with a smile, "Every year on Qing'er's birthday, no matter how busy Dad is, he must accompany him, and this year is of course no exception!" ”

Mu Lingkong obviously saw that the eldest lady sitting next to Meng Huai'an's face was cold for a moment, and Meng Huai'an was so fatherly and affectionate that he even deceived his wife.

Mu Lingkong smiled, stepped forward and sat down next to Meng Huai'an, looking up at him, "Then I have a gift this year!" ”

Meng Huai'an smiled and stretched out his hand to Meng Ze, who was standing behind him, Meng Ze respectfully handed over a sandalwood box, Meng Huai'an took it and handed it to Mu Lingkong, "Open it and take a look!" ”

The sandalwood box is two feet long, the carving is exquisite, and it is worth a lot of money at a glance.

Mu Lingkong slowly opened the box, and a pair of luxurious ruby heads were gradually revealed, and the gold wire was wrapped around the brilliant rubies, and the craftsmanship was meticulous, and even Meng Ruyue, who came over to look at it with the probe next to him, was also stunned.

Mu Lingkong's smile has not changed, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes were as clear as ever, "The head and face are very exquisite, I like it very much, thank you, father!" ”

Meng Huai'an bowed, "If you like it, it's good!" ”

*

After dinner, Mu Lingkong was stopped by Meng Ruyue before leaving the house, "Today is your birthday, why do you want to leave the house alone?" Can't you take me with you? ”

Mu Lingkong shook his head, "Can't!" ”

"We're good sisters!"

Mu Lingkong was unmoved, "Good sisters also have secrets that can't be told!" ”

Meng Ruyue snorted, thought of something, and smiled sheepishly, "I know, you ......" She glanced around carefully, leaned over and said in Mu Lingkong's ear, "Are you going to see His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

Mu Lingkong blushed suddenly, as if some secret had been discovered. She ignored Meng Ruyue's call from behind, and got into the carriage at the gate of the mansion directly.
