Mu Xiangsi did not know that he was being sold by Xiao Mo in such a way!
The man thought to himself: If she knew, what expression would she have?
Well, he should be happy! His harem no longer had any makeup, she was the only one left!
Thinking of this, her thin lips curled up as she discussed other matters with Qi Emperor and her future father-in-law.
That night.
In order to welcome Shen Zhu back, Qi Emperor specially prepared a feast to welcome them.
Shen Zhu, Su Zongwen, Mu Qingling, Mu Xiangsi and the rest sat down in two rows and the palace maids began serving the dishes one after another.
"There's no need to stand on ceremony. This is just an ordinary family feast, and I know that you were shocked when you were eating at Liang Kingdom, so I prepared many delicious foods, and we chatted as we ate."
Qi Emperor's gaze swept across the five people below, and in the end, landed on Shen Zhu's body as he smiled and nodded to her.
"Royal Father, you're too biased. In the past, when I went out, you never greeted me like this. Furthermore, the last time I went out, you were also shocked!"
Mu Qingling complained.
She had previously thought that the Royal Father was very good to her, but now, it seemed that it was because there was no comparison with her elder sister.
"What nonsense is Ling Er spouting? Royal Father treats you and your sister the same, you know your sister … "Don't be willful, love your sister too much."
Qi Emperor smiled as he explained. As a father, he was very pleased to see that his two daughters had both grown up well.
"Ling Er, in the future, do you and elder sister want to help each other?"
Her eyes were still red, her heart ached when she spoke to Shen Zhu just now. She hoped that her two daughters would be better off in the future.
"Got it, Ling Er will definitely be good to big sister, and will treat big sister well. If anyone dares to bully big sister, I will definitely not forgive them!"
Mu Qingling waved her fist a few times as she spoke, raising her eyebrows proudly at Shen Zhu.
Shen Zhu's nose was a little sour. He looked at Mu Qingling who was beside him, then at his parents who were sitting on top of him, and didn't know what to say in that instant.
Thinking back to how the people from the Shen family treated her, her heart could not help but be filled with emotions.
She finally had her own family in this space and time. It wasn't those fake family members, but the family members who truly and sincerely belonged to her.
"Royal Father, Queen Mother, thank you. I, I don't know what to say anymore, so I might as well toast to everyone."
Shen Zhu's tears rolled in her eyes as she raised a cup to her little sister, meaning: Here's to you.
She lowered her head and poured herself a glass of wine.
Seeing that, Su Zongwen, who was sitting beside her, had his men prepare the Sobbing Wine Soup.
He had been married for so many years, yet he had never seen such a Shen Zhu.
Mu Qingling's tolerance for alcohol was average, but her sister's toast had to be drunk no matter what, so she simply closed her eyes and drank it straight away. Her throat felt like it had been scalded, and her grimacing look made a few people laugh.
"Lovesick, when do you and Xiao Mo plan to get married? Recently or later? Say it, your aunt and I will find a good day for you. "
Qi Emperor suddenly thought of the marriage between Mu Xiangsi and Xiao Mo, and thought that the people present today were not outsiders, so he decided to discuss it with everyone.
What?
Mu Xiangsi was about to tease the little eunuch at the side, but when he heard his uncle's words, he was stunned. He looked at Xiao Mo in astonishment, and then looked at him angrily.
So this was what this man had said to his uncle alone in the study? What the heck was he doing!
"Uncle, Xiao Mo and I are not what you think! The only reason why he and I are innocent is because we were thinking of a plan to save Xiao Zhuzi. There is nothing between us. "
Mu Xiangsi hurriedly explained. He did not know what kind of bewitching soup Xiao Mo had drunk, but his uncle actually agreed to it!
Qi Emperor and Empress looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
He had watched lovesick grow up, and he knew that the more this girl explained, the more untrustworthy she became.
Silence. The entire atmosphere suddenly became very quiet.
"Lovesick."
Xiao Mo broke the silence, looked at Mu Xiangsi, and leaned his body leisurely to the side. "I want to ask you a few questions."
"Ask." She was very confident, the reason for the marriage was for the Xiao Zhuzi.
"Did you say in front of the Liang Emperor that I'm your husband?"
Xiao Mo lowered his head and took a sip of the wine.
"Yes, but …"
"Are we going to say we're married?"
Xiao Mo interrupted her and continued to ask. He only needed to confirm these two things.
"Yes, but …"
"So, you want to start a mess with me?"
Xiao Mo sat up, his tone still as indifferent as before, but other than Mu Xiangsi, everyone present heard a tinge of grievance.
"Huh?" Mu Xiangsi raised his right index finger and pointed it at himself. His expression was as painful as if he had eaten a fly, "Me? I start out in disarray? It was clearly you who took the advantage, wasn't it? "
She truly felt that she had been tricked by Xiao Mo!
"Lovesick, since you two have decided to live together for the rest of your lives, don't be shy. Aunt and Uncle will definitely make the decision for you and prepare your dowry."
The empress saw that these two children were admitting their relationship in front of others. If they didn't get married soon, it wouldn't be good for their reputation.
"I did that for the Xiao Zhuzi, I …"
Mu Xiangsi was suddenly at a loss for words, wanting to say that she did not like Xiao Mo at all, but she could not say it, as though it was stuck in her throat.
"Thank you, Qi Emperor and Queen."
Xiao Mo thanked her. Regardless of how angry Mu Xiangsi looked at her, this marriage was already more than halfway.
Mu Qingling watched the fun from the side and snickered from time to time. He thought to himself: Xiao Mo really has some skills, this move is really amazing!
Mu Xiangsi felt that he had suffered a loss due to his words, so he did not speak anymore. Lowering his head, he picked up a piece of meat and bit down in anger, as if he was biting his enemy.
After the family banquet, Xiao Mo needed to leave the palace to rest at the relay station.
Just as he arrived at the palace gate, Mu Xiangsi stopped him.
"Let's talk."
She looked at the gale at Xiao Mo's side, signalling him to move away.
"Go over there." Gale, wait for me here. "
Xiao Mo walked towards the palace wall.
"Can we cancel the marriage?"
Mu Xiangsi lowered her head and asked, she suddenly realised that this Xiao Mo could only eat things that were soft and not hard, maybe she would treat him a little more gently, and then the matter would be settled.
"Impossible." Xiao Mo replied back without even blinking once.
"You …" Mu Xiangsi hadn't even spoken a few words when he saw Xiao Mo walk towards her. Step by step, he slowly approached her.
