"Mistress, Princess Consort Chen and the patriarch of Ji Family have already recognized each other. But, only Master has been forgotten, Clan Head Ji is rather presumptuous, and did not even put Master in his eyes. " An old man in a long grey robe lowered his eyes and mumbled.
The black clothed man's posture of holding the brush never stopped. Upon hearing the old man's words, he only lightly smiled, a trace of dark light of unknown meaning flashing through his deep eyes.
He continued with the painting in his hand, looking like a noble and elegant young master with a carefree and carefree manner.
Seeing that his master was indifferent, the grey robed elder said anxiously, "My master." "Why are you …"
Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by the man in black. Before the painting on the desk was completed, the man in black placed the brush on the table and said indifferently, "Uncle Mo, don't worry. I will definitely join in on the excitement of Ji Family, and also meet the legendary Princess Consort Chen. "Let's see what's so special about her."
He had long been curious about Xie Qingrong, but he had never had the chance to come into contact with him.
The Ji Mansion was decorated with lanterns and decorations, which made all the guests quite curious, but no one asked about it.
Dressed in light clothes, the black robed man stood at the entrance of the Ji Mansion with his hands behind his back. The servant at the door saw that the man had an extraordinary demeanor, but still did not take out the invitation. He had a plan, but entered the Ji Mansion and called Ji Rufeng over.
Ji Rufeng stood on top of the stairs, and looked down at the man in black from above. The meaning of his smile was unclear, and he laughed: "I remember that Ji Family didn't send the invitation letter to the Mo Estate. Why did Elder Mo Yun come uninvited?"
However, the man dressed in black who was called Elder Mo Yun did not seem to care at all, and said with a smile, "Clan Head Ji has found his long-lost daughter. Mo Yun is also happy for Clan Head Ji. The person who came was a guest. Elder Ji wouldn't chase Mo Yun out, right? This would harm the relationship between Mo Ji and his family. "
For Mo Yun to show his intentions so plainly, it was not good for Ji Rufeng to chase Mo Yun out and prevent him from attending the banquet. If he had known earlier, he would have sent an invitation to the Mo family, just like today.
Ji Rufeng squinted his eyes, the displeasure towards Mo Yun became more intense, but the expression on his face became more sincere, and waved towards the door.
Mo Yun was sure that Ji Rufeng would not lose decorum with him in such a public place, and walked back to the Ji Residence confidently.
Even the piercing gaze behind him didn't make him retreat by even a bit.
Xie Qingrong held the wine jug and obediently followed behind Ji Cangming. She watched as Ji Cangming introduced the identities of the guests one by one.
With a smile on his face, he toasted to the guests.
When he walked to Mo Yun's side, Ji Cangming paused for a rare moment, as if he did not expect Mo Yun to come uninvited. However, he still greeted Mo Yun with a smile.
"Elder Mo, it's been a while, you're still as graceful as ever." Ji Cangming teased, but no one knew how much sincerity he had.
Mo Yun held the wine cup and toasted to Ji Cangming and Xie Qingrong, downing all the wine in the cup in one gulp. He smiled at Xie Qingrong, saying, "This is Clan Head Ji's long-lost daughter? "He is indeed elegant and graceful, virtuous, demure and dignified, with an extremely beautiful appearance."
Hearing Mo Yun's praises, Xie Qingrong turned his face to the side, and those who didn't know what he was doing would think that he had been praised to the point of making him feel embarrassed.
However, only Xie Qingrong knew that the emotions in her heart were not. From Ji Cangming's treatment of this person, one could see that Ji Cangming was not happy with Mo Yun.
Although she didn't know why Ji Cangming disliked this person, she naturally held some prejudices in her heart towards the person Ji Cangming disliked.
When Xie Qingrong and Ji Cangming passed by Mo Yun, Xie Qingrong could still feel Mo Yun's scorching gaze on his back. Xie Qingrong slightly frowned, and the displeasure in her heart grew even stronger.
Everything that had happened on the other side naturally did not escape Xuanyuan Chen's eyes. His somewhat unfriendly gaze swept past Mo Yun's body and landed on the wine cup in front of him in the end.
He frowned, as if he was displeased.
"Who is he?" Xuanyuan Chen asked as he held his wine cup.
Ji Rufeng sat beside Xuanyuan Chen and played with his small and exquisite wine cup, speaking with an unclear meaning: "The one from the Mo family, Mo Yun."
Xuanyuan Chen raised his eyebrows, but before he could say anything, Ji Rufeng continued, "Although Mo Yun looks like a noble and elegant young master, he has many tricks and underhanded methods. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to sit as an elder of the Mo family."
Not only that, the current Mo family, under Mo Yun's control, was like a single word. The one in charge was just a puppet.
Although Ji Cangming had decided to help the Heavenly Sage Kingdom, he did not have the kind intentions of his uncle.
"From ancient times until now, who would be the real clean person if they were able to sit in a high position?" Xuanyuan Chen drank all the wine in his cup and said indifferently.
If they didn't have some tricks up their sleeves, how could they stand out among these people? All these years, those who had ascended to the high position would step on the bones of countless people.
Ji Rufeng couldn't deny Xuanyuan Chen's rhetorical question, and neither could he admit nor deny it. He only smiled and said, "Your Highness, after today, the Crown Princess will officially become a member of the Ji Family and her uncle will personally carve it on the family tree. I wonder how His Highness the crown prince will explain to the Heavenly Sage about the background of the princess consort? "
Xuanyuan Chen's identity as War God King Xuanyuan Chen was already known to the world, and now that he was bestowed the title of Heavenly Sage Kingdom's crown prince, his every word and action represented the dignity and face of a Heavenly Saint.
As the princess consort, Xie Qingrong had suddenly gained a whole new identity. The general's daughter had become the daughter of the savage Ji Family, so once she was used by someone, there would be endless trouble in the future.
Therefore, Ji Rufeng's words were not only meant to strike a blow, but also meant to warn him.
The hand that Xuanyuan Chen used to hold the chopsticks trembled, he turned his head slightly, his gaze was placed on Ji Rufeng's face, and he saw a few strands of sincerity deep in his eyes that were about to dissipate.
She smiled and said, "I will take care of this matter. However, Gu still had to thank Ji gongzi for his good intentions. Today, Ji gongzi's way of addressing Gu has changed. I presume that he already knows about the matter of Prince Gu Feng. "
Ji Rufeng placed the wine cup on the side of his hand, his gaze sweeping over Xuanyuan Chen's body, and then shifting over to Xie Qingrong's body, seeing her rare obedient look.
He sighed a little in his heart and laughed: "After all, the Crown Princess is a person of my Ji Family. It is reasonable for her to observe and understand my wife's every word and action. However, on such a good day today, I wish to congratulate His Highness the Crown Prince on his promotion. "
With that, he poured himself a cup of wine, his slender fingers holding onto the wine cup as he gave a toast to Xuanyuan Chen.
