Regardless of how loud the surrounding people were, or how many discussions there were, Su Qing Jiu still stood at his original position. There was no trace of discomfort on his face. He was not calm, but completely indifferent.
Liu Yi carefully observed Su Qing Jiu. That woman stood there confidently, as if she was a separate landscape. In his heart, he actually felt that she was an inexplicable match!
Many years ago, he had also looked at that high-spirited youth from afar. He was peerless in his generation, and everything was in his hands. The plan was to travel thousands of miles, and the god of war's first decision was to make the most accurate decision.
Following which, one step at a time, one step at a time, was followed by a footprint at a time.
He was a natural born marshal. Even those who had dominated the battlefield for more than a decade felt inferior or even resigned to admit defeat!
If that day hadn't happened, then Qi Moxuan's entire life would have been a myth!
Yes, an absolute myth!
"Hao'er, do you know how Qi Mo Xuan evaluated the girl beside him when he came to see me in private?" Liu Yi couldn't help but remind him, seeing Liu Tian Hao was in a daze.
Some things were destined to be fated without distinction. Liu Tianhao was a step too late for Qi Mo Xuan to get to know Su Qing Jiu. He was able to discern that woman's attitude towards Mo Xuan. Even if something were to happen between them in the future, it was impossible for Liu Tian Hao to do so.
Liu Yi still remembered Qi Moxuan's comment about Su Qing Jiu. He said, "She will definitely be unrivalled in the future and overturn the world."
Such a high evaluation, even if it was a little inaccurate, it still confirmed Su Qing Jiu's talent. The silly Ninth Miss was just a cover. Just by this point, she was quite similar to him.
Qi Mo Xuan could understand a little about Liu Yi, but what was Su Qing Jiu doing? In the battle for the house, how did Su Qing Jiu manage to survive? There were many ladies and gentlemen in the Prime Minister's Estate.
"The evaluation should be very high. Su Qing Jiu is very smart. I hope …" Liu Tian Hao did not continue speaking. After the distance was created, it would only get further and further away, and it would be too difficult to approach it.
"Hao'er, let's go say our greetings as well." Liu Yi walked towards a place with fewer people.
Su Qing Jiu saw that the crowd seemed to be greeting him, and in the blink of an eye, they separated to reveal a passage. A muscular young man walked over, followed by a white-faced scholar.
The white-masked scholar seemed to be very familiar with him. Su Qing Jiu looked at him carefully, and only then did he realize that she recognized him. Liu Tianli's brother, the son of the Duke Protector Palace.
Liu Tianhao followed behind that person. That person couldn't be Liu Yi, right?
Having met so quickly, Su Qing Jiu quickly thought about the matter between her and Liu Yi. Actually, it wasn't a big deal, but if she were to explain in detail, she seemed to have borrowed Liu Yi's face.
When Liu Yi walked over, those people let him pass. The aura of a veteran of the battlefield was enough to make anyone tremble with fear after so many years. He could truly be called a character.
Su Qing Jiu bowed slightly, which could be considered a form of courtesy, "The Protector of the Kingdom is too polite. The first time we met, I'm Princess Mo's wife, Su Qing Jiu."
He was neither humble nor arrogant nor afraid. The rumors were indeed wrong! Liu Yi looked at Qi Mo Xuan. The smile on his face was a clear indication of what he was thinking. Good luck, unexpected good luck.
"I know, I've heard Li Li'er mention you before." Liu Yi coldly replied to Su Qing Jiu's words.
Standing with his hands behind his back and dressed neatly, it could be seen that he was a person who placed very high expectations on himself. Su Qing Jiu continued to size up Liu Yi. He wanted her to say that Liu Yi was not bad looking. The square face was well-behaved, and the bold nose and sharp eyebrows faced each other. Standing there, its majesty naturally revealed itself.
She was able to see through the suppression in the atmosphere. Just by feeling, Su Qing Jiu felt that Liu Yi had locked on to her, and most of the auras were directed towards her.
"Then, why didn't Miss Liu come?" Su Qing Jiu asked politely.
At this banquet, she naturally didn't want to talk to those fake court ladies. To her, Liu Tian Li was more to her liking. Although there were times when she acted recklessly, it was not a big problem.
"Little sister, come with mother. We'll be there in a moment." Liu Tianhao stood up and explained.
With just a glance, Qi Moxuan already felt uncomfortable. It was one thing for him to not know some things, but when he found out that they were right in front of him, he felt that he could not bear to watch any longer.
Retreating to Su Qing Jiu's side, Qi Mo Xuan held onto Su Qing Jiu's hand and said: "Royal Consort, the banquet is about to begin. If you have anything else to say to the Protector, go sit down there and talk. As for Young Master Liu, you should go find your sister, right?
"I heard that there's a talent performing during the banquet. Don't let anything go wrong."
Seeing Qi Mo Xuan holding onto Su Qing Jiu's hand, Liu Tian Li felt a little unwell. He had not controlled his emotions well just now.
"Many thanks for the reminder, Your Highness. I will look for him right now." Liu Tianhao left the crowd, his back clearly in a sorry state.
Qi Mo Xuan's hand was indescribably cold. Even Su Qing did not know how to describe the feelings in her heart as he clenched his wine cup.
With Liu Yi and Qi Moxuan together, Crown Prince Qi Chenfeng had already retreated. He no longer bothered with Su Qing Jiu's matters.
The Protector of the Kingdom was a kind of honor and had great power, but he was clearly in control of the State of Qi. If he relied on his past achievements to gain some respect, Su Qing Jiu would feel pity for Qi Mo Xuan.
This degree of respect was getting further and further away from him. Sitting on the wheelchair, many people started to point at him. For example, wasn't Qi Mo Xuan the prince? Would it be alright for them to openly discuss the monarch?
If this had happened in the past, who would dare to say no to Mo Xuan? Even if the Emperor Qi Hao was here, he probably wouldn't say anything.
Thinking of this, Su Qing Jiu shivered. The leader of the team was probably someone like Qi Mo Xuan. With such an outstanding person holding such great power, if she were to assume the position of Qi Hao, she would not feel at ease.
This was the difference between being an official and being a general. High ranking officials were full of suspicion. Loyalty is such a thing. A person who believes in you is a type of attitude. If you don't believe me, what can you do?
Back then, Qi Mo Xuan probably never would have thought that he would one day be betrayed by the person he treated the most loyally! It was a joke. There were no tears, no grudges, and no hatred. He had just given up.
"Imperial Protector, is there something you want to say to Jiu'er?" Su Qing Jiu stood to the left of Qi Mo Xuan, while Liu Yi stood to the right. As the four of them walked side by side with a cart, Su Qing felt so drunk that his entire body felt uncomfortable. The gaze that Liu Yi was looking at made her feel extremely uncomfortable!
Just say it directly. Even if they weren't on the same side, they were still on the same boat. Was this really good for her? There were some things that she couldn't tolerate either.
If he wanted to find her regarding Liu Tianli, why didn't he say anything earlier, then wouldn't the crown prince be right there?
