Chapter 18: A Moment of Infatuation
In the Xianqing Palace, Shen Yan rubbed the nose that had just sneezed, and shouted angrily: "Who is cursing me!"
Xia Hou smiled when she heard this, and glanced at him. "Who will curse you? Didn't they all say who missed you when they sneezed in the past? Why?
For this son, Xia Hou couldn't know better. All thoughts are on the face, and they are never deliberately hidden. Unlike Ah Li's child, it's always unpredictable.
"No, it's okay!"
Shen Yan waved his hand, and his handsome little face showed a look of loneliness.
"Queen Mother...... You raised the third brother, and he was grateful to you, so from childhood to the eldest brother, he relied on me for everything. I also know how to be proportionate, and I don't mess with him unreasonably. Only this time ......"
Shen Yan stopped halfway through speaking, and Empress Xia smiled slightly and reached out to touch his head.
"Tell the queen mother, is the cigarette girl really so good? Can we make our Seventh Prince, who is home everywhere and wander around at will, move his heart?"
Shen Yan lowered his head, neither admitting nor refuting. After a moment of silence, he muttered, "It's not that good." It's just that when you see her smiling, you feel very happy. I've heard people say that animals are the most spiritual. People may be able to disguise, but they don't. They think a person is good, so they will take the initiative to approach her. Let me tell you, I came back this time, and I brought a little ferret with me. That little guy was given to me by someone else, and he looks so beautiful. Later, when I went to the third brother's place, as soon as the guy saw Mu Yan, he immediately rushed over, and lay on her shoulder, looking flattering!"
Xia Hou laughed out loud, "What do you mean by this, do you mean that you are not a good person?"
“......”
Shen Yan hurriedly waved his hand, "Oh, that's not what I mean! I mean...... I mean......"
Empress Xia interrupted him with a smile, "The queen mother knows! You want to say that Mu Yan is a good girl! Yan'er may have come into contact with many girls, but there has never been a girl like Mu Yan who can make you feel very happy." Isn't it?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Shen Yan's eyes were shining, and he looked at the summer queen without blinking. Xia Hou knew his thoughts, but shook her head at him. In an instant, Shen Yan's eyes dimmed, and Empress Xia took his hand and patted it gently.
"Yan'er, not to mention that Mu Yan and your third brother are married by His Majesty, and now she is also the third princess. As far as you are concerned, are you sure that you really like her, and not a momentary false infatuation? How long have you been back? How many times have you seen her? How long have you been with her? If you really want her, how should your third brother explain it? How should your father explain it? Have you ever thought about these consequences?"
Shen Yan lowered his head and didn't speak, where did he think so much, his plan was to curry favor with Shen Li and let him give Mu Yan to him. Anyway, the third brother doesn't like Mu Yan, and most of them will agree. Then he took Mu Yan away and flew away, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the world. That girl has small eyes and bones, she must be full of ideas, and she will definitely not be bored with her!
When Empress Xia saw that Shen Yan didn't speak, she knew that she had spoken to him in his heart. pursed his lips, for fear that this simple son would go astray, so he kindly comforted: "Yan'er, there are many good girls in the world, one day, you will meet someone you really like!"
Shen Yan nodded, although his mouth should be harmonious, he was thinking in his heart, there are many good girls in the world, but Mu Yan, but there is only one!
......
Ruiwang Mansion, in the courtyard where Mu Yan lives, there are a bunch of people standing at the moment. Mu Yan looked at Fang Biling, who had thick gauze wrapped around her wrists on her head, and she was really out of temper with a smile.
"Lord Wang~~~ Look! she still dares to laugh!"
Fang Biling dragged Shen Li's arm, and Mu Yan trembled when she heard the delicate voice, and goosebumps fell all over the ground.
Shen Li had a straight face, frowning and full of impatience. He looked at Mu Yan, his deep eyes glowing with cold light.
"What the hell is going on!"
Mu Yan shrugged her shoulders, "It's nothing! It's just that this concubine of the prince doesn't understand the rules a little, I just educated her a little." ”
"What a little education!"
Fang Biling retorted angrily, and then she became soft and weak again.
"Originally, Sister Feng and I were kind enough to come over to greet the third princess, but who knew that the princess's shelf was too big, so I ignored it. I spoke in a slightly rushed tone, and the princess came out with a knife and wounded me. Whining...... If I hadn't dodged quickly, my hand would have been gone, and how would I help the prince pinch his shoulders and rub his back in the future. ”
Mu Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes, pointed at Fang Biling and said, "I was strange just now, what's the matter with the gauze tied to your head?
"You-"
Fang Biling didn't expect Shen Li to be there, Mu Yan dared to be so presumptuous, she was so angry that she stomped her feet at the moment, and dragged Shen Li's arm again and again to cry. Shen Li's brows became tighter and tighter, and finally he impatiently shook off Fang Biling.
"Shut up!"
The cold aura of the third prince was enough to freeze everyone present, and as soon as he said this, no one dared to squeak. Then, he moved his gaze to Mu Yan, his thin lips opened lightly, and he spit out two words.
"Apologies!"
"Apologize?" Mu Yan sneered, "Why should I apologize? It wasn't me who made the mistake, she was there from beginning to end." Why do you want me to apologize?"
Shen Li's eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous aura.
"If this king asks you to apologize, you have to apologize!"
"What if I don't?"
As soon as Mu Yan's stubbornness came up, no one could persuade him. Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Hongluan hurriedly ran over and knelt in front of Shen Li.
"The third prince is angry! Miss is stubborn and ignorant, don't worry about her! I apologize for Miss!"
As Hongluan said this, he kowtowed to Fang Biling on the side several times, slamming the ground, but in exchange for Fang Biling's few white eyes.
"What kind of thing are you, and you are qualified to apologize for your master? Get out of the way!"
Mu Yan stepped forward and pulled Hongluan up, and when she saw her reddish forehead, her heart suddenly churned with anger. She glared at Fang Biling fiercely, who was frightened and unconsciously took two steps back.
Fang Biling relied on Shen Li's presence, suppressed the fear in her heart, and said with some trembling: "What, what's the matter! Do you still want to continue to stab me with a knife?"
As soon as these words fell, I really saw Mu Yan bend down and take out the dagger from his left foot. There was a small notch in the tip of the knife, which was the same one that day.
Seeing this, the guards in the courtyard instantly drew their swords and came out, and just wanted to rush over to protect Shen Li, but when they saw him wave their sleeves suddenly, everyone stopped.
"It's none of your business, quit for me!"
