She also knew that Dong Fang Su had gone to the Nanzhao to propose, but now was not four years ago. Since Mu Qian Xue did not choose Dong Fang Su then, that meant they had no fate.
In this life, Dong Fang Su was destined to be hers!
Xia Yue was so angry that her chest almost exploded. No matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Shen Xi Jun was mocking them, and it was the first time in her life that they were insulted like that. "Princess, she's calling us dogs!"
Mu Qian Xue was more patient than Xia Yue and said indifferently, "I heard everything. Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, don't make such a small matter unhappy."
Xia Yue's face was flushed red, she could not take this lying down, but when Mu Qian Xue said this, she could only grit her teeth and endure.
When Dong Fang Su heard their conversation, he frowned slightly, "What's going on?"
Without waiting for Mu Qian Xue to speak, Xia Yue, who was full of anger, had already rushed to Dong Fang Su's side, telling him in detail what had happened on the street.
Dong Fang Hui took note of their side, and laughed: "What, the Princess Pingyang's side said it's your turn, could it be that there's something interesting going on?"
When Dong Fang Hui was speaking, Xia Yue had already roughly explained the entire situation. Dong Fang Su thought for a moment, then cupped his hands: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Xia Yue really did say something interesting earlier with Chendi, and it just so happens to be related to dogs."
While Dong Fang Hui was still shocked, Empress Dowager Wei said with interest: "Since that's the case, you should tell me."
Dong Fang Su took a glance at Shen Xi Jun, and then said slowly: Xia Yue had long heard of the flourishing Jinling, so she went out to play, but unexpectedly, not long after she went out on the streets, he saw two evil dogs rampaging through the streets, biting and scaring passersby into hiding, and during the chaos, a boy and his mother were separated, almost bitten by the two evil dogs. Fortunately, Xia Yue had saved him in time, and had ordered the two evil dogs to leave.
Seeing the dark expression on the two of them, the grievances in Xia Yue's stomach vanished like smoke into thin air, the two of them had scolded him well, and now they were reprimanding him.
He really didn't expect that King Rui, who normally didn't even want to talk nor smile, would actually insult and hurt his so easily. He had avenged her and the Princess in an instant, and it was truly very satisfying.
When Princess Pingyang saw the expression on his daughter's face, and compared to his previous words, how could he not see that Dong Fang Su was ridiculing his? However, her thoughts were quite deep, and only said lightly: "Looks like the evil dog in the capital has gotten into trouble recently. I have to inform Jing Zhao Fu Yin and have him send people to clean up, so that we don't really have to bite other people in the future."
"Is it not enough yet?" After interrupting Shen Xi Jun, the Princess Pingyang raised his glass towards the Empress Dowager Wei and said smilingly, "This concubine wishes the empress dowager good luck, like the everflowing waters of the East Sea, and a life longer than Nanshan."
"Alright!" The Empress Dowager Wei was in high spirits today, she drank the wine with her white jade cup and the sweet fragrance of osmanthus blossoms. After that, there were a few people who toasted and drank as well, one by one.
Because the three years of national mourning had not yet come to an end, there were no songs or dances arranged to liven up the mood. The only thing they could do was to eat while chatting. It was rather heartwarming.
Although the osmanthus wine was not strong, it still had some force behind it. On top of that, Empress Dowager Wei rarely touched alcohol, so after eating lunch, she started to feel dizzy, allowing Yin Qiu to help her rest in the Inner Palace.
After sending the Empress Dowager Wei off, everyone bid farewell and left. Dong Fang Su helped the emperor up, intending to go sit in the Sedum for a while. Unexpectedly, before he even left the door, he was called out to.
"backtracking brother, Xiao Fang said that many new flowers have been moved here, the weather is not hot today, can you accompany me for a walk?" Shen Xi Jun held onto the kernels, her face slightly red.
"But …" Without waiting for Dong Fang Su to continue speaking, the Chen said, "matriarch is naturally under your care. There's no need to worry, go ahead."
Although Dong Fang Su did not like Shen Xi Jun, his personality was very filial. After seeing Chen speak for so long, she could only agree to it and after saying a few words to Mu Qian Xue, he accompanied him out of Ningshou Palace.
After they left, the Chen brought the two of them back to the Sedum. Compared to the Ningshou Palace, the Sedum was much smaller, and there were only a few green trees planted in the courtyard, giving the place a sense of ease and elegance.
When Chen came out, she saw that Mu Qian Xue was still standing, and laughed: "Take a seat, there are no outsiders here, there is no need to be overly courteous."
"Thank you, Grand Consort." The moment Mu Qian Xue sat down, palace maid served him some tea. The moment he opened the tea, he could smell the unique fragrance of the Six An Cucurbita Fragrance.
Before he had even put down the teacup, the voice of the Chen rang out, "Does this Princess have a taste of where this tea came from?"
Mu Qian Xue looked at the clear and translucent tea soup, as well as the pieces of tea below that were spread out like melon seeds, and smiled: "The Six An melon slices are only produced at the Six an Manor in Anhui Province, and they are divided into several parts of the inner mountain and outer mountain, the most authentic and rare among them is that. They belong to the inner mountain near the bat cave.
Chen smiled and nodded, "Looks like Princess is someone who understands tea."
Mu Qian Xue laughed, then lowered her eyes and said: "I only know a little about it, sorry to trouble Grand Consort."
After a moment of silence, Chen slowly said. "Su Er told me everything about Princess, but I didn't expect you to be so heartless and not even think about your relationship. I have really troubled you these days."
"This evil deed was done by Qianxue herself. In the future, I will make sure you pay it back double." All hatred and resentment were concealed beneath a calm exterior.
When Xia Yue heard this, she could not help but ask: "Aunt's meaning is that we should forget about this blood feud and pretend that nothing happened?"
Unless Princess alone has the ability to fight against the entire West Chu. Otherwise, it would be better for Princess to forget about the matter of revenge, so as to not harm himself and others.
After stopping Xia Yue from speaking further, Mu Qian Xue looked at Chen with an indifferent expression, "Is this also what Grand Consort wants?"
The Chen did not directly answer her, and only said: "Although Dong Mei's words are a bit harsh, in the end, it is still better for the Princess. Throughout history, there has never been an eternal dynasty;
"Grand Consort is afraid that I will implicate you?"
