Jing Xi's faint voice came into Shen Ling's ears, and Shen Ling seemed to think that there was someone around him.

"That's not because the subordinates of the National Teacher are all talents, all of them are shrewd and capable."

"Oh? In this way, the national division is not satisfactory in the eyes of the county lord. ”

Between the words, Jing Xi's hand holding the teacup made a fine and dense cracking sound.

Shen Ling's face was strange, why did Jing Xi speak like this today, where did he offend him again?

"Why are you so angry, how can you be angry with yourself!"

I don't know when, the blood stains on Jing Xi's fingers mixed with the tea flowed on the table, and the original delicate tea cup became shattered.

"Bring the ointment and gauze."

Shen Ling's delicate eyebrows were locked together, and he immediately grabbed Jing Xi's hand to check, and the fragments of porcelain pierced his thick palm, everywhere.

Jing Xi's eyes were like ancient wells, and he watched Shen Ling carefully remove the fragments, and the anger in his heart suddenly eased a lot.

It's not that he's moody, it's just that Cheng Beinuo and Song Xinyu's plan is inevitably too dirty, no matter what, Shen Ling is the wife he is marrying, how can he tolerate such a calculation and blasphemy.

"Why aren't you angry when they calculate you like this?"

After a moment of silence, Jing Ci slowly spoke, and the magnetic voice was mixed with incomprehension.

Shen Ling took the plaster taken by his subordinates, picked up a small piece of wood half a finger width, and evenly applied it to Jing Xi's palm.

She didn't raise her head, and said calmly: "What's the use of being angry, it's better to use the color, which is called anger." ”

The white mesh gauze, layered on Jing Xi's hand, he watched closely, and his deep gaze turned to the spy.

"Do as the county lord says."

"Yes!" The guards took the order and quickly disappeared into the room.

After bandaging the injury, Shen Ling sat quietly, looking out of the door without squinting, and the atmosphere fell silent.

Jing Xi moved his palm, and stopped talking, feeling that he had just gone too far.

After a long time, Shen Ling slowly spoke, "If the national teacher doesn't like me to use your people, I won't use it in the future." ”

Shen Ling's pretty face lost her expression, although she wanted to use Jing Xi's power to deal with Song Xinyu, it didn't mean that she wanted to accept Jing Xi's face.

Seeing that Shen Ling misunderstood his thoughts, Jing Xi immediately said: "I didn't mean that, you can only use people, and I will never say much in the future." ”

When the words fell, Shen Ling was still not happy or worried, but just said softly, "Thank you." ”

Respecting each other like a guest also means being estranged, Jing Xi sighed quietly, and saw her out of the yard.

The time of three days passed in a flash, and the harem also specially sent a messenger eunuch to invite Jing Xi and Shen Ling to attend the palace banquet.

In front of the bronze mirror, Shen Ling said a light gold base dress, and the cuffs were embroidered with begonia flowers with gold threads, which looked unique.

Between the black clouds and temples, the golden head flower is pendant with white pearls, with Shen Ling's rare stunning color, noble and dazzling but not vulgar.

Jing Xi was wearing the same style of gorgeous clothes, standing at the screen and looking at her from afar, Shen Ling rarely spoke to him these three times, obviously because he was still angry.

"I have already notified the spies in the palace today, and I will fully cooperate with you, you just have to rest assured."

The cherry-colored red lips gently pursed on the rouge-covered red paper, and in an instant, Shen Ling's eyes became a little more mature and dignified.

"The national teacher bothered."

A fluttering sentence made Jing Ci feel a sense of powerlessness that was spent on cotton.

After retreating, Jing Ci walked to Shen Ling's side, revealing a serious look, "I said the wrong thing a few days ago, I will compensate you today, don't be angry because of a trivial matter." ”

Looking at his serious apology, Shen Ling gradually couldn't hold back, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Then I will forgive you for the sake of the National Teacher who knows so well." ”

Jing Ci looked at her and smiled, and her hanging heart finally let go.

The carriage of the National Teacher's Mansion slowly drove into the palace, accompanied by other nobles, obviously the scale of this palace banquet was not small.

Shen Ling put down the curtain and smiled coldly, this Song Xinyu abacus was loud, and he was full of energy to make a fool of himself in front of the hereditary nobles in the capital.

The Lai Yi Palace, where the banquet was held, was very lively at the moment.

Officials of all grades chatted in groups, and the ladies gathered together to form a small circle.

Shen Ling and Jing Xi stepped into the hall together, and they immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Although there are not a few talented and beautiful women in Kyoto, there are very few such talented and beautiful matches, and it is difficult not to look twice.

Song Xinyu's eyes fell on him for the first time, and when he saw that Shen Ling and Jing Ci were still wearing the same couple clothes, the jealousy in his eyes almost erupted into fire.

"Hmph, let's be arrogant for a while, wait and see how you make a fool of yourself!"

Cursing in a low voice, Song Xinyu got up slowly, gave a few orders to the inner supervisor, and then went to the garden on the left side of the Lai Yi Palace.

Jing Xi entered the hall, and immediately a minister came to greet him, and Shen Ling seemed to have nothing to do with him.

At this time, the eunuch of the inner palace saw the opportunity, walked to Shen Ling's side in broken steps, and said in a slender voice: "County Lord, the seat of the female dependents is in the Blue Garden here." ”

Shen Ling raised her eyebrows and looked over, many women dressed in gorgeous costumes entered the Blue Garden in twos and threes, and the palace banquet separated the female dependents separately.

Entering the blue garden, many female dependents, led by Song Xinyu, were admiring the flowers around the flowery flower beds, and when everyone saw Shen Ling coming in, they just glanced at it lightly, and then looked away, as if they didn't see it.

Shen Ling didn't care about this kind of isolated little trick, if these people were chattering with her, she would feel annoyed.

Looking for a secluded rockery, Shen Ling sat on the stone bench and waited quietly for Song Xinyu to make a move.

Song Xinyu looked at Shen Ling who was not in a hurry or impatient, and was very unhappy, and immediately said in a pinched tone: "Some people just don't fit in, we are here to enjoy the flowers, but she is lazy on the side." ”

Seeing that Song Xinyu started talking, the noble lady beside her immediately echoed: "The princess is right, let this kind of person leave her alone, and everyone will ignore her when the banquet is held." ”

The words of several people reached Shen Ling's ears word for word, and she raised her eyes to look over, revealing a sneer.

Song Xinyu was worried that there was no reason to find fault, and when she saw her sneering, she immediately put up the shelf and said, "What kind of expression are you, you dare to be disrespectful to this palace!" ”

Shen Ling's eyes wanted to look like a fool, and mocked: "Her Royal Highness the princess is really such a big shelf, no one is allowed to laugh anymore?" ”

"Dare to talk back! Looking for a fight! ”

Song Xinyu walked to Shen Ling's side in three steps and two steps, raised his slap and threw it down.

'Smack! ’

The slap was loud and crisp, but Shen Ling didn't move, because the slap didn't hit her in the face.
