"I'm sure."
Murong Xuelian, who had been in a good mood, now had a dark expression on her face, "That hen that doesn't lay eggs is actually pregnant, how hateful! And that little slut, she actually dared to fight with me. Does she want the child in her stomach to help Longze Jingtian obtain the position of crown prince?! Hmph! "
"Your Highness, what should we do?"
"Let me think, I need to think." Murong Xuelian finally spat out the grape seeds. She touched her belly with her red fingernails and said, "Since both of them want to go against me, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Murong Xuelian's beautiful face flashed with viciousness. Even Hu Po, who had followed her for many years, felt frightened.
"Come here!" Murong Xuelian crooked her finger at Hu Po and whispered into her ear. "Spread the news and let that person in Green Luan Palace know that Prince Jing's consort is pregnant. I want them to fight each other."
"Your Highness is wise!" Hu Po's eyes flashed with a strange light. Sitting on top of the mountain and reaping the spoils was her master's forte. It seemed that her peaceful life was about to come to an end...
The ninth day of the ninth month. The weather was clear and there were no clouds in the sky. Golden chrysanthemums were in full bloom everywhere in the palace. They shone brilliantly and looked extremely noble.
Long Zeyu attached great importance to the marriage alliance between North Zhou and West Qi, so this year's palace banquet was especially grand and grand. The civil and military officials had already arrived at Supreme Harmony Hall, where the banquet was being held. Even the emperor, empress, and imperial noble consort had arrived.
After waiting for a long time, the two main characters, Feng Cang and Murong Qiqi, still hadn't arrived. Long Zeyu's expression was a bit unsightly. Everyone was sitting upright and the atmosphere was a bit tense.
After all, the reputation of the Southern Unicorn Monarch, Feng Cang, was too great. Furthermore, his means were too shocking. Just his decisiveness in slaughtering forty imperial guards on the street was enough to make people admire him. In the end, the emperor didn't even pursue the matter, which was enough to prove the deterrent power of this North Zhou prince.
However, this prince was too arrogant. He actually made all the officials of West Qi wait for him. And that Sunshine Princess Murong Qiqi actually didn't come either! The officials couldn't help casting various glances at Murong Tai.
Murong Tai couldn't sit still anymore. He took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat. When he left, Murong Qiqi was already up, but for some reason, she wasn't here yet. If Long Zeyu pursued the matter, it would be troublesome.
Murong Tai wanted nothing more than to hang Murong Qiqi up and give her a good beating the moment she appeared. However, this was only limited to his inner thoughts. In reality, he couldn't, and indeed couldn't, do anything to Murong Qiqi.
These days, those people from North Zhou swaggered in and out of his Prime Minister's Mansion under the banner of Feng Cang. From time to time, they would make sarcastic remarks in the language of North Zhou. There was also that chef who roasted lamb every day, causing the entire residence to be filled with the smell of lamb. He had no appetite for many days.
All of this gave Murong Tai a headache, but he couldn't afford to offend Feng Cang, so he could only endure and endure it. In his heart, he couldn't wait for Murong Qiqi to get married as soon as possible.
While everyone was guessing what King Nan Lin and Zhao Yang Princess were up to, Murong Qiqi finally woke up in the horse carriage at the entrance of the palace.
Early in the morning, Feng Yu woke her up from her bed. Feng Yu said that she had to dress her up beautifully and amaze everyone. In the end, Murong Qiqi dozed off while Feng Yu helped her bathe and change her clothes. Then, Feng Yu covered her body with perfume and put on layer after layer of "golden thread clothing". Finally, Feng Yu began to carefully comb her hair and do her makeup.
Murong Qiqi swore that she didn't know that a woman's makeup took so long. Feng Yu's hands were very nimble. She gathered Murong Qiqi's usually loose black hair in her hands. With just a few twists, a beautiful bun appeared on her head. Murong Qiqi was amazed.
Just when Murong Qiqi thought that it was over, Feng Yu pressed her down on the stool again and continued to busy herself with her hair. After much difficulty, her hair was finally done. Feng Yu began to mess with her face again.
From the beginning to the end, Su Mei and Su Yue didn't help at all. They only watched from the side. As they watched, they marveled at Feng Yu's skillful hands. This made Feng Yu even more proud and showed off even more.
During the entire process, Murong Qiqi was drowsy. There were a few times when she almost fell asleep, but she was woken up by Feng Yu. She drew her eyebrows, applied her powder, and applied her rouge …
When Murong Qiqi saw that Feng Yu's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, she endured it no matter how tired she was.
Feng Yu treated her well with sincerity, so she couldn't let Feng Yu's painstaking efforts go to waste. When Feng Yu was done and placed the bronze mirror in front of her, Murong Qiqi asked Su Mei to take the brush and personally draw a golden chrysanthemum on her forehead to match what Feng Yu had done for her.
"Princess, you're so beautiful …" It had to be said that Murong Qiqi's golden chrysanthemum was the finishing touch. It made her look even more lively and beautiful. Feng Yu happily sent Murong Qiqi to the horse carriage. In her heart, she imagined the surprised expression on His Highness's face when he saw Murong Qiqi.
Feng Yu did not know that Murong Qiqi fell asleep the moment she entered the horse carriage. She slept all the way to the palace gates.
When Murong Qiqi lazily opened her eyes, she suddenly smelled something strange. "Who's there?" Two silk threads appeared in Murong Qiqi's palm. As long as the other party made a move, she would not hold back.
"Did you sleep well?"
Feng Cang propped his chin on his hand and did not move. He only stared at Murong Qiqi's eyes that were overflowing with light. Just a moment ago, she was sleeping like an obedient kitten. Now, she was like a leopard whose territory had been invaded. As expected, this woman was interesting!
Murong Qiqi was vexed. How could she have fallen asleep? She did not even notice that someone had appeared beside her. Because Su Mei and Su Yue were beside her, Murong Qiqi was able to sleep without any worries. She did not expect that an unexpected person would appear.
"Feng Cang …"
What made Murong Qiqi even more surprised was the man in front of her. Previously, she had only heard rumors about Feng Cang. Now that she saw him in person, Murong Qiqi was shocked.
His face was like the moon in mid-autumn. His complexion was like the flowers in the dawn of spring. His hair was like a knife. His eyebrows were like ink. His face was like peach petals. His eyes were like autumn waves. It seemed that all the beautiful words that could be used to describe this man were not too much.
