Yao Muzixi sniffed the faint fragrance of Xia Mingyu and felt a little restless. She was indeed curious about Xia Mingyu's biological mother, but she found it difficult to talk about it, for fear of saying something that would make him unhappy.
Xia Mingyu looked at Yao Muzixi in his arms and thought that Xia Xifeng would be coming to the palace soon! My father always valued family reunions on New Year's Eve. Those who should come will come, and those who shouldn't will come. But there are many I am also very helpless about things.
"Do you want to know about my mother?" Xia Mingyu let go of Yao Muzixi, with a hint of indifference in his eyes, and looked straight into Yao Muzixi's eyes. If she said yes, he would definitely give him to her without any reservation. Tell her everything, because now he really just wants to care about the woman in front of him.
Yao Muzixi turned around and no longer looked into Xia Mingyu's eyes, looked at the sky in the distance, and said in a daze: "I don't want to know, because those things are already in the past, and people can't always be addicted to the past and can't extricate themselves. See clearly the road in front of you and how to take it. I think if it is something I should know, I will know it one day anyway."
Xia Mingyu was a little surprised when he heard Yao Muzixi's words. She didn't want to know, but judging from the curious look on her face, he should really want to know. Forget it, as she said, she will know what she should know, Isn't everything like this? Paper can't stop the fire, the truth will be revealed one day. But she suddenly feels a little unsure in her heart. When the truth comes out, will she hate herself?
In the evening, Xia Xifeng and Helian Fengwan also arrived at the palace. Xia Ruohan's four sons were all waiting in Yixuan Hall. Xia Mingyu only brought Yao Muzixi with him, but he did not expect that An Aiyan would also follow him. Come here, she is also the emperor's niece and Xia Mingyu's cousin, so naturally no one will say anything.
Xia Chenhao glanced at An Yanyan, with a smile on his face. He actually thought that this dinner would be very interesting. Last year, his four brothers accompanied his father, but now there are three more women. It is said that three women make a drama, and with An Yanyan's jealousy, there might be some good drama going on.
Xia Xifeng and Helian were together in the evening, while Xia Liuliang stood aside and said nothing. Although Xia Xifeng was young, he was very sensible and obeyed Xia Xifeng in everything. In the palace, he didn't even look at Yao Muzixi, just because he knew in his heart that his feelings were not what he should have. She was his sister-in-law and the crown prince. He could only keep a distance from her and slowly let her go. It was her most correct choice to forget herself.
Xia Liuliang saw Yao Muzixi sitting next to Xia Mingyu with his belly up. It seemed that Ouyang Haonan didn't come with him today. It would be great if he were here, then he could go and play with him. The atmosphere now is so exciting. It's a bit uncomfortable for people to hold back.
Yao Muzixi raised his eyes and glanced at Xia Xifeng and Na Helian Fengwan, but he really met Xia Xifeng's eyes and quickly looked away. He picked up the tea on the table and drank it. In a panic, Yao Muzixi drank the tea in one gulp, and felt a burning pain on the tip of her tongue, so she quickly spit out the tea in her mouth.
Xia Mingyu frowned slightly, stood up quickly, stroked Yao Muzixi's back, and said gently: "Is my concubine okay? Why are you so worried?" Yao Muzixi looked up at Xia Mingyu, and just shook his head, his mouth hot. was speechless.
Yao Muzixi's eyes seemed to be overflowing with tears. The tea was really hot and she was extremely uncomfortable. Xia Mingyu pulled Yao Muzixi into his arms, helped him to the chair, and quickly ordered his servants to call the imperial doctor. Yao Muzixi couldn't resist, so she had no choice but to let the imperial doctor take a look at the injury.
Xia Xifeng was a little worried about Yao Muzixi at first, but seeing how carefully Xia Mingyu cared for her made her feel at ease. She shouldn't get close to her if she could, to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Yao Muzixi glanced at Xia Xifeng, and the tears in her eyes couldn't help but fall. Only she knew that she was actually feeling uncomfortable. Yan actually stayed aside so quietly, watching Xia Mingyu care and love Yao Muzixi so much, but remained indifferent.
The dull atmosphere inside Yixuan Hall was somewhat relieved because of Yao Muzixi's burn. Everyone began to circle around Yao Muzixi. A eunuch came in and shouted in a high voice: "The emperor has arrived."
Several people in the Yixuan Hall quickly turned around, knelt on the ground and said: "Welcome Father." Yao Muzixi also endured the pain in his mouth and said vaguely. Although his mouth was injured, it should be. Etiquette is still required.
Xia Ruohan's face was full of smiles. Looking at a few people, he seemed to be in much better spirits and looking good. Xia Ruohan just said softly: "Everyone is free of charge! The dinner can start soon." Xia Mingyu will Yao Mu Zixi helped him up, and several other people also stood up and sat in their own seats. But by chance, Xia Xifeng was sitting opposite Yao Muzixi, and Xia Mingyu was sitting next to Yao Muzixi. around.
Although it was a family banquet, it was a royal family after all. The scene was naturally grand, and the dishes on the table were all delicacies from the mountains and seas. Wherever Yao Muzixi sat, he did not even move his chopsticks. He just lowered his head lightly and did not dare to raise his head. If she looked up, she would see Xia Xifeng. She was afraid of such embarrassment.
Yao Muzixi had no intention of listening to what they were talking about, and was silent in his own world, at a loss. Xia Ruohan saw Yao Muzixi's expression and asked inexplicably: "Zixi, why don't you eat? Is that right? The food of my country, Xia, is not to your liking."
Listening to Xia Ruohan's words, Yao Muzixi almost shed tears in his eyes. The emperor is just like his father, he cares about him so much. I don't know if his father is living well alone in the palace. He used to have it every year. He was with him, but now, he was the only one left alone.
Yao Muzixi opened his mouth, only to feel the severe pain, and he couldn't hold a single word out of his mouth. Seeing this, Xia Mingyu immediately answered on Yao Muzixi's behalf: "Just now, Xi'er burned her mouth while drinking tea. I'm afraid I can't eat these anymore." Xia Mingyu glanced at Yao Muzixi, turned around, and said to Xia Ruohan.
"Why are you so careless? If something happens to you, I'm really sorry for your mother." Xia Ruohan's eyes were a little dim and he said sadly.
Yao Muzixi was a little surprised. Xia Ruohan actually said that she was sorry for her mother. What is the relationship between him and my mother? However, she was injured in the mouth and could not speak. She really wanted to ask something about her mother. Dear things.
Xia Ruohan's eyes were a little deep, as if she was reminiscing, and then she returned to her usual indifferent look. She still cared about Jiang Zixin so much in her heart! It's just that she didn't have the blessing to protect her. Even though she died, she still lived with him. heart.
