Mu Liang naturally heard what Bai Xiaolou and Rouge Button said, but he didn't have any interest. Nalan Tianzuo next to him put down his cup, narrowed his eyes, and when he spoke, his voice was faintly hoarse.
"Why are you with him?" He was naturally talking about Bai Xiaolou.
Bai Xiaolou's body trembled, but his gentle and jade-like temperament remained unchanged. Without looking at Nalan Tianzuo, he lazily said, "Yes."
Nalan Tianzuo's face turned pale after hearing these two simple words. The expression on Xiaolou's face remained unchanged, as peaceful and clear as jade.
There was a dark light in Nalan Tianzuo's eyes, faintly revealing a hint of complicated coldness.
Yelu Zongxiao, who was sitting across from everyone, had already drank several glasses of wine. He had been drinking with his head down, but he saw the scene opposite him clearly and realized that he was already half drunk before the banquet started.
…
At the same time, the Queen Mother, who had arrived outside Weiyang Maple Leaf Forest, was sitting in the phoenix chariot. She frowned slightly, with a serious expression on her face. Su Su saw her and persuaded her in a low voice, "Queen Mother, in fact, you have already come this far.
It’s a step forward. If you consider His Highness’s mood more, I’m afraid it will be even more torture for His Highness in the future. Su Su can’t bear to see you in such a difficult situation.”
Su Su's words made the Queen Mother suddenly come back to her senses, she patted her hand angrily, her eyes filled with boundless doting.
"You kid, don't say anything to comfort me, an old woman. In fact, there is nothing you can do about it. If you don't tell the Ai family's decision in front of so many people later, and do it openly and make it a certainty, I'm afraid that I will
The third child still refused to look back and wait for the matter to be resolved, so the Ai family had a private chat with the girl to see what she really thought. Why did all the good men from Bei Liao and neighboring countries fall in love with this girl?
Aijia’s heart is always hanging on.”
The Queen Mother shook her head and saw that the phoenix chariot had stopped. She straightened her collar and sat upright. Su Su beside her helped her straighten her cuffs and hem.
No matter what was said in the conversation just now, it will not change the outcome of today in the slightest. The move that is about to be made is the only feasible move for the Queen Mother to make for the present! Let’s get that girl to her side first.
"The Queen Mother is here!!"
Following the high eunuch's shrill voice, the entire Weiyang Maple Leaf Forest suddenly became quiet. Everyone stood up respectfully, and Rouge Button finally found a chance to relieve his depressed feeling and stood up together with everyone.
, but the look on his face is no longer what it was when he came.
The Queen Mother got off the phoenix chariot and walked slowly over holding the little eunuch's hand. Su Su stood on the other side and carefully held the Queen Mother's hand.
At this moment, the Queen Mother changed her helplessness and seriousness in the phoenix chariot. With a faint smile on her lips, she greeted all the old ministers. Those who came today are all important ministers of the court, many of whom were promoted by the Queen Mother.
Therefore, I am very close to the Queen Mother. When I see the Queen Mother, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.
"How are you, Queen Mother?"
"Your Majesty, why don't you come back to see an old guy like me!"
"Queen Mother, don't you think you don't recognize this old face of me anymore? I almost don't recognize you myself!"
The respect that veterans have for the Queen Mother is obvious. Therefore, some elderly ministers are also willing to take the initiative to talk to the Queen Mother.
As the Queen Mother walked, she chatted with the veterans on both sides.
"Zuo Shangshu, the Ai family has a strong body, but you, why have you lost so much weight? I will ask Susu to go to the Ai family later to get some Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng for you to replenish. If you fall down, no one can fill your body.
Sora! Do you know?"
"I dare not! I will always follow the Emperor and the Queen Mother!"
"Didn't the Ai family come back to see you? I thought veterans like you would scold the Ai family behind their backs! I didn't expect that I would still miss the Ai family! Good, good! The Ai family all understand your thoughts!"
"Sir, Mr. Li, how old is your face? It's true that the Ai family hasn't changed in ten years! Don't worry! Even if the Ai family doesn't know the current emperor, they won't fail to recognize you! Back then, the Ai family was at the royal hunting ground.
When we encounter a bear, aren't you the first one to step forward and protect the Ai family? You, you, your character is still the same as before as you get older! It hasn't changed! It's better not to change..."
"Protecting the Queen Mother is what I should do! The Queen Mother still remembers me, and my heart is very warm!"
"Hey, if your heart is no longer warm, how can you still talk? You old guys are like this in front of the Ai family, and you are not afraid of a bunch of little jokes!"
The Queen Mother chatted and laughed happily with a certain kind of veteran minister, but she kept her sense of proportion and walked step by step to the main seat. There was always a faint smile on her face, but she did not lose her majesty and nobility.
When the Queen Mother was about to turn around and take a seat, she turned back and glanced in the direction of Mu Liang. The Queen Mother's eyes seemed to be condensed by something. She looked intently with her back to everyone, and her steps stopped.
The courtiers looked at the Queen Mother who suddenly stopped all her movements strangely, wondering what was wrong with the Queen Mother.
Only those sitting in the front rows understood that the Queen Mother's eyes had been falling on Mu Liang.
Seeing this, Su Su on the side reminded the Queen Mother in a low voice,
"Queen Mother, here we are"
"Oh? Well." The Queen Mother was startled, but did not look away. She immediately turned around and sat on the chair, then her phoenix eyes slowly moved away from Mu Liang and then looked at Yelu Zongxiao on the other side.
Su Su's eyes collided with Nalan Minghui, who was sitting next to Yelu Zongxiao. Nalan Minghui always responded to her with the most ordinary reaction, and did not show the emotion that Su Su expected.
He lowered his eyes gently, feeling sad and disappointed, but he had already become accustomed to it.
After the Queen Mother sat firmly, she whispered to Su Su beside her, "The look in that girl's eyes... can kill someone."
The Queen Mother's voice was so low that only Su Su could hear it. Su Su came back to her senses and glanced at Mu Liang, but she did not agree with the Queen Mother's words.
"Your Majesty, it's not that exaggerated. That girl really doesn't like to laugh, but her smile is absolutely stunning. As for this look in her eyes, it's better to just be calm than to hide a knife in her smile. Doesn't this mean that her temperament is simple and straightforward, and she doesn't know how to hide it?" Su Su said.
, obviously speaking to Mu Liang
Although she likes Nalan Minghui, Su Su always thinks about the situation and not the person, and she will not hide it from the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother thought for a moment, lowered her eyes, and could not hide the relief on her face.
"She is so incapable of hiding, yet so able to capture people's hearts. She is obviously a clean and beautiful jade, but you just can't see through her heart, so they will never forget her..." When the Queen Mother said this, she seemed to be hinting at another person.
After she got off the Fengchaan and saw all the veterans, she felt relatively relaxed. But when she saw Mu Liang's cold eyes and the cold and distant aura around her, the Queen Mother felt inexplicably.
As soon as he mentioned it about his decision, he felt faintly shaken in his heart. If he really gave this girl the status of a royal princess, maybe... he might not be able to control this girl.
Moreover, Rouge Button is also the adopted daughter of the Bai family, and now this girl can be regarded as the adopted daughter of the emperor. In this case, wouldn't it make people compare them together even more?
If this princess is not suitable, then what other status can be worthy of this girl's cold and arrogant spirit?
The Queen Mother looked a little sad for a moment.
"Well, today is just a family dinner and the day when Ai's family comes back, I don't have a chance to get together with you all properly. So don't be formal today and let you bring your wives, children and children. I just want to have fun, but also let Ai
Let’s see how your family happiness has begun…”
When the Queen Mother said these words, the expression on her face had not yet relaxed. Su Su, who was standing beside her, vaguely felt something was wrong, and unconsciously whispered in the Queen Mother's ear,
"Queen Mother, don't you want to..."
"Wait a minute." Before Su Su could finish speaking, the Queen Mother interrupted her softly. A look of hesitation surged between her eyebrows. The next moment, when her eyes intertwined with Mu Liang's, she was once again caught by the look in Mu Liang's eyes.
Shocked by the cold and proud aura, all previous thoughts suddenly disappeared!
It was just a moment of looking at each other. After Mu Liang looked away indifferently and casually, the Queen Mother's body still felt locked by her eyes. The youthful glance of Mu Liang, in the Queen Mother's eyes, was no longer just a cold breath,
It is a kind of pure and clear color that is rare in the world. The Queen Mother admits that she has seen countless people, but she has never seen anyone with such eyes. If you can imagine, it is probably Tuo Bo Kun who feels the most like her!
It's just that Tuo Bokun was cold and lazy, and ignored the matters that didn't concern him.
And this girl, the chill that is so cold to the bones is so strong that she is suffocating, and that's not to mention it! But it is so perfectly combined with this alluring figure, with a breathtaking and dangerous aura.
"No wonder...no wonder..."
The Queen Mother murmured, no wonder this girl can make so many people risk everything for her... It turns out... That's how it is...
A clear light flashed in the eyes of the Queen Mother. The next moment, she already had a plan in her heart! What kind of identity should be given to Mu Liang! Only in this way can the current situation be controlled.
