Chapter 149: Finding doubts
Chapter 149: Finding doubts
Mu Tangxi did not take Ji Qichen directly to the hall, but went to the place where they had just admired the plum blossoms.
She used her memory to find the place where her elder brother fell. The snow on the ground had been swept clean by the servants.
Mu Tangxi stared at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking. Then he squatted down gently and reached out his hand to touch the ground.
Sure enough, it felt cold and hard to the touch, and there was a thin layer of ice spreading over the small area of land.
Only on this small patch of ground was there a momentary reflection, but there was no such thin ice anywhere else.
Ji Qichen knew that Tangxi wanted to explore this place, so he squatted down as well.
After Tangxi took her hand back, he considerately handed her a handkerchief to wipe her hands.
Mu Tangxi took it very naturally, wiped his hands, and stood up again.
Suddenly a voice came from behind, "Why, did you find anything suspicious?"
Mu Tangxi paused, and Ji Qichen beside him asked in surprise, "Royal sister, why are you here?"
Mu Tangxi turned around, raised her smile and saluted to the princess, "Hello, Princess."
Ji Qianzhu waved her hand, and her eyes shifted from her third brother who had returned to his original form to her future third sister-in-law. She asked gently, "No need to be polite. Can you tell me what you found?"
In fact, she had a very good impression of her third brother. After all, he did not look down on her like her eldest and second brothers. Although they did not say it out loud, they looked at her with a condescending look.
And third brother...what can I say?
She gave people the feeling that she didn't care about herself, that she didn't want to die, nor did she want to live. She stayed in her bedroom every day, almost making her forget that she had a third brother.
Although she had only met him a few times, Ji Qichen was the prince who impressed her the best, probably largely because he was highlighted by his elder brother.
But it doesn’t matter. Ji Qianzhu likes beautiful women, and now she also likes this future third brother’s wife very much.
Since the princess asked, Mu Tangxi answered, "I found that there is a small piece of ice on the ground here. This should be the reason why big brother fell."
Ji Qianzhu also imitated their previous posture and squatted down to check.
A trace of hesitation flashed across her eyes. There was no water here, so how could ice suddenly form on the open ground?
So she thought of the two siblings who entered the Prime Minister's Mansion.
This plan does not require you to get too close to the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. You just need to pay attention to where he will go and set a trap in advance.
"Okay, I know about this. Let's go back first. It's windy here." Ji Qianzhu smiled at the beauty and said as she looked at her ears that were blown red by the cold wind.
Mu Tangxi naturally felt the princess' kindness towards her and gave her a brilliant smile, the light in her honey-colored eyes was very dazzling.
The smile on Ji Qianzhu's lips grew wider.
Ji Qichen was stunned for a moment as he watched the two people walking away. Why did he feel like someone had taken his wife away from him?
Ji Qichen came to his senses and hurriedly chased after him. After naturally squeezing in between his imperial sister and Tangxi, he felt much more comfortable.
Ji Qianzhu glanced at her third brother with disdain. It was unnecessary for him to disturb her time with the beauty.
It’s hard to find a beautiful woman who is not a spy these days!
She didn't even dare to keep it by her side, for fear that her information might be stolen if she wasn't paying attention, so now she just watched from afar.
But Miss Mu is different. Who would allow a prime minister’s daughter to be a spy?
And looking at the beauty a few more times is extremely friendly to her eyes.
After arriving at the hall, Mu Tangxi separated from them and then saw his second and third brothers who were both dirty.
Mu Tangxi suddenly perked up again. Was it Mu Lianxue's move again?
She quickly approached her second and third brothers and asked, "Second brother, third brother, what's wrong with you?"
Mu Jinbai and Mu Jinxi took a deep breath, and the latter spoke first, "It was that blind kid who did it. He was so short, who could see him? He ended up tripping over a servant, who was holding a drink."
Mu Jinbai looked at his third brother helplessly. It was obviously that kid who did it on purpose, okay? !
No matter how tall the servant was, it was impossible for him not to notice the guest's location, so how could he have bumped into him?
The child suddenly jumped out just now and caused the servant to fall.
It's really a case of hurting one thousand of your own and hurting eight hundred of the enemy.
Mu Jinrong was the most embarrassed after being drenched in alcohol; even his hair was soaked.
Thinking that he was not wearing a cloak and must be terribly cold at the moment, Mu Jinbai was too lazy to argue with him.
A hint of doubt flashed in Mu Tangxi's eyes. Why are the methods of these two siblings sometimes superior and sometimes inferior?
She greeted her second and third brothers and then sat back in her seat.
Next, Ji Qianzhu casually asked the guests to write a poem based on the plum blossoms they had just seen.
It can be either your own poems or poems by predecessors.
This was the choice Ji Qianzhu made to divert attention.
And, most importantly, she wanted to listen to Qin Mu’s new poems.
Ji Qianzhu's eyes fell on Qin Mu. She knew well that this "aloof" scholar would disdain to use the poems of his predecessors, and he would insist on writing his own poems.
To be honest, in the past, the princess would simply ignore such aloof people.
But Qin Mu’s “aloofness” is particularly... cute.
His "aloofness" does not mean looking down on others, but focusing on his own affairs and insisting on participating in such activities with his own poems instead of using other people's poems.
When Ji Qianzhu went out of the palace for a stroll, she happened to pass by the group of students who were debating.
When other students were fighting over who was right and who was wrong, Qin Mu stood aside and did not get involved.
I have to say that he was very eye-catching, holding a collection of poems in his hands and reading it with fascination.
It was a very strange scene, so Ji Qianzhu looked at it a few more times.
Perhaps because Qin Mu had a handsome appearance, Ji Qianzhu looked at him for a long time.
From then on, Ji Qianzhu couldn't help but pay attention to what he was doing and what poems he wrote.
Having lived in the palace for too long, Ji Qianzhu has seen all kinds of ugliness in people's hearts, and even her own hands are not so clean.
So when she suddenly saw such a pure person, you can’t blame Ji Qianzhu for wanting to see Qin Mu all the time, right?
In the eyes of others, Qin Mu is a nerd, but Ji Qianzhu likes nerdy beauties!
Ji Qianzhu specially gave the guests a quarter of an hour to think of poems.
After hearing this, Mu Lianxue suddenly became full of confidence.
Who could compare to the poetry of so many people from an ancient civilization in her mind?
This banquet will become her place of fame!
The light in her eyes became brighter and brighter, and her whole body looked radiant, and the curve of her mouth gradually deepened.
Mu Tangxi glanced at Mu Lianxue lightly, his eyes full of curiosity and anticipation. Could it be that she still didn't know about the existence of the poetry collection?
