I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law
Chapter 54: Loved
The emperor is so pompous, especially today he has another purpose. The New Year's Eve banquet was really grand.
Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang sat in the chief with the bright lights. They were already very eye-catching. The emperor and the empress repeatedly asked in public, asked for warmth, sent tea and food, and were very considerate. As a result, the gaze towards Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang became even greater.
There are many old ministers like Zhu Yang Hong. I wish Yang Hong's family also entered the palace, but their position was far behind Xie Xuanchen's. They were small and congested, and they couldn't be found in the crowd. As soon as they looked up, they could see the top chief, Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang sitting on the banquet, the lights were colorful and shining, people toasted in an endless stream, and talked to the emperor and queen from time to time.
Xie Xuanchen was toasted to Xie Xuanchen in turn, and the princes and princesses of the harem also signaled to their cousins and cousins to celebrate the new year. Among them, Prime Minister Song specially added an extra glass, and in the presence of many courtiers and the emperor and empress, he apologized to Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang for the accident that the unfilial son ran into Princess An's car a few days ago.
Prime Minister Song said: "The dog was stupid, and he went crazy after eating alcohol that day, and accidentally offended Wang An and the princess. After returning to the mansion to learn about this incident, he was beaten severely and he is still locked in the ancestral hall. I thought about it. King An was raising in the mansion, and the minister did not dare to come to disturb him, but he did not dare to vaguely pass. Today, just in front of the officials and many politicians, the minister apologized to His Royal Highness and the princess, please forgive the dog. Sin of respect."
In fact, Prime Minister Song was also very upset, literati wanted face, let alone other officials to Zaifu, setting an example for scholars in the world. Nowadays, in front of many colleagues and subordinates, facing a young man under twenty years old, how can the face of Prime Minister Song pass?
But no matter how embarrassing he is, he has to finish speaking. If it was replaced by someone else, Prime Minister Song would send someone to send someone an apologetic gift and scold his son. But this person is Xie Xuanchen.
Prime Minister Song didn't dare to let it go, but he didn't even dare to go to the house to make amends. Song Prime Minister Xiangsi thought and thought about it, and it was most appropriate to say it to the public in a scene that was not serious but grand enough on New Year's Eve.
The only problem is probably shame.
Prime Minister Song knew that he would be ridiculed by political opponents in this way, but after all, his life was more important. Prime Minister Song stubbornly put aside his old face and finished speaking, the emperor couldn't help asking what was wrong when he heard it. Prime Minister Song didn't dare to let Xie Xuanchen open his mouth to describe the scene of that day, so he could only lose face again and repeat the scene of that day.
After listening to the emperor, he touched his knees and said: "Song Xiang is the country's important minister, and King An is also a meritorious service in the country. In my heart, he is far more important than his parents and children. If you two have a gap, it will be my great loss. This cup I also added wine to me, and the three of us drank together. After the wine troubles, the past grievances will not be mentioned again."
Song Zai hurriedly thanked him, Xie Xuanchen also considered the face, picked up the wine bottle, signaled to the emperor and Song Zaixiang, and drank it all. After Xie Xuanchen put down the cup, the queen judged the situation and took up the wine glass and said: "Wang An and Zaizhi are both national pillars, and the official family and King An will drink wine, and the palace will also offer a glass to Princess An."
Mu Mingtang sighed faintly, and could only pick up the wine glass to answer the queen's words. However, the toast was endless from the beginning, and Xie Xuanji also raised a glass to Xie Xuanchen when he saw it. Sitting at the top, the emperor saw that there were young couples on the left and the right. They were all beautiful, beautiful and happy, and said: "Your second brother is still recuperating. You are toasting a cup. I'm afraid your second brother will not be able to eat it. A cup may be counted as respected by your husband and wife. It just so happens that Xuan Ji and Xuan Chen were married this year, and you two newly married couples should have a drink together."
When Jiang Mingwei heard it, she quickly picked up the wine glass and said: "The official said that the concubine respects the second brother and the second wife."
Mu Mingtang filled the maid with wine, when she was about to pick up the wine glass, her hand was suddenly suppressed by Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen said: "She can't drink, I'll drink this cup for her."
With that, he drank all the wine in his glass, took Mu Mingtang's glass, and emptied it as soon as he raised his head. Xie Xuanchen moved too fast, and Mu Mingtang didn't have time to remind him. After watching him finish drinking, what Mu Mingtang wanted to say slowly crawled to his mouth.
That is...her cup.
The emperor laughed, and even the queen laughed and said, "Wang An used to be a temperament who ignored anyone, but now he will feel sorry for his wife."
The emperor and the empress smiled, and the other courtiers all responded, and there were endless wits. Jiang Mingwei took a quick glance at Xie Xuanji and saw that Xie Xuanji had put down the cup, and it seemed that she had no other meaning, so she drank the wine in her cup quickly.
Everyone laughed and talked, and after a while, the topic turned to other people. Seeing that no one was looking at them anymore, Xie Xuanchen asked Mu Mingtang in a low voice, "What's wrong with you, what did you just want to say?"
Mu Mingtang glanced at Xie Xuanchen, he stopped talking, and finally shook his head. Seeing Mu Mingtang doing this, Xie Xuanchen asked, "What's wrong?"
Mu Mingtang could only slightly turn Xie Xuanchen with his arm and motioned to the wine vessel in his hand: "That's mine."
"I know it's yours." Xie Xuanchen thought that Mu Mingtang was entangled with him, so he simply put the wine glass back to Mu Mingtang's hand and said, "Okay, I'll give it back to you now."
Mu Mingtang stared at his movements, his eyes were round and round. He just put things back? She was actually going to ask for a new...
Then someone will come to toast, how does she drink it?
Funing Hall has endless silk and bamboo, singing and dancing, and it is full of flourishing weather. But Mu Mingtang watched the colorful dances on the stage, but couldn't get in for a long time.
The emperor sat for a while before going to the back to change clothes. After the emperor left, everyone was obviously more relaxed, and the sound of toasting and talking suddenly increased. Xie Xuanchen was sitting on the emperor's right hand. The people behind didn't dare to come to toast. They were all the big people and big people in their circle. Now that the emperor is out, other talents dare to approach and come over and talk to Xie Xuanchen.
Mu Mingtang was already a little dizzy. Seeing that the situation was wrong, she quickly fled the scene under the pretext of changing clothes. She walked to the outside of the palace and stood in front of the railing. It was very windy, and she felt Xun Xunran's mind clearer. She didn't dare to go back now. Xie Xuanchen was obviously drinking well, but she couldn't. She would simply stand outside for a while and wait for the people to leave before returning to the table.
Mu Mingtang was unfamiliar with the place in the palace, and of course he would not go far, so he walked slowly around the railings of Funing Palace. It was also a coincidence that at the corner of the apse, Mu Mingtang ran into Jiang Mingwei who was coming from another direction.
Jiang Mingwei also came out to sober up, but did not expect to meet Mu Mingtang here. The enemy was extremely jealous when they met, and the two of them were a little bit drunk at the moment, the smell of gunpowder in the words became even more serious.
Jiang Mingwei sneered, seemingly pointed: "Some people come from the country and can't get on the table. There are a little good things, so they are busy piled up on them, and they are not afraid to be ashamed. Sister-in-law, you say this kind of person is ridiculous. ?"
After speaking, Jiang Mingwei sighed and said: "Yes, maybe I haven't seen a good thing, please be jealous."
Mu Mingtang definitely glanced at her, smiled, and said nothing. Jiang Mingwei was irritated by her negligent attitude, raised her eyebrows and said: "I'm talking to you, why are you laughing?"
"My younger brother and sister are talking to me? Oh, I thought it was a dog who came out and barked, and didn't notice that my younger brother and sister were also talking." Mu Mingtang smiled and said, "After all, the dog barked at people. I can't call it back, I'll give her a face."
Jiang Mingwei's face suddenly darkened: "Who are you scolding as a dog?"
"Who should scold me?" Mu Mingtang couldn't help but smile. She was dressed up today, with a towering cloud on her temples. She was slightly drunk at the moment, her eyes were bright and moist, as if there was wine in her eyes. Mu Mingtang deliberately pretended to be looking for it, and looked around: "I just heard the dog barking and didn't recognize where the dog is. Thank you brother and sister for helping me find it."
After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, he ignored Jiang Mingwei and immediately turned and left. After Mu Mingtang left, the maids on both sides did not dare to speak, bowed down and saluted Jiang Mingwei, and hurriedly followed Mu Mingtang.
Jiang Mingwei gritted her teeth and threw her sleeves so hard that she staggered and almost fell. The maids hurriedly supported her and said: "The princess calms down her anger."
After Mu Mingtang walked down the corridor of the apse, he planned to return to the banquet, but he did not expect to meet Xie Xuanji halfway. Xie Xuanji was standing on the side of the road, obviously waiting for her. Mu Mingtang just couldn't see and turned his head to change his way.
Xie Xuanji's voice sounded from behind: "Second sister-in-law stayed."
Mu Mingtang's figure stopped, he also turned to Mu Mingtang's direction, and said bluntly: "I have something to say to my second wife."
At this point, he looked weak when he walked away. Mu Mingtang turned around, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Okay, what does King Jin want to say?"
When Xie Xuanji walked over, the maids all stepped back wittily and guarded every intersection. Xie Xuanji looked at Mu Mingtang at the moment. She was dressed in purple clothes today, with a long neck and delicate skin. Apart from other mentions, Mu Mingtang's looks are really pleasing to the eye.
Xie Xuanji sighed silently and said, "I know you have grievances in your heart, but Ming Wei is innocent. Why should you always target her?"
She targeted Jiang Mingwei? Mu Mingtang glanced at Xie Xuanji in surprise, and suddenly realized: "Just now, did you hear that?"
Xie Xuanji didn't say anything, but obviously acquiesced. Just now Xie Xuanji was also taking a drink in the back, but he was sitting in the seat behind the vines. Neither Mu Mingtang nor Jiang Mingwei found him, but Xie Xuanji listened to the conversation between the two.
Mu Mingtang immediately laughed and said: "You have heard it, and you still have the face to question me? Your Royal Highness, wake up, she provoked me first. Just her, do you still say she is innocent?"
Xie Xuanji was speechless on this question, Jiang Mingwei was mean... indeed beyond his expectations.
In his mind, Jiang Mingwei, with an outer circle and an inner square, is light and strong, and is a good candidate for the wife and mother of the country. He also grew up with Jiang Mingwei's childhood sweethearts. Such a person will become a princess or even a queen, and he will be very popular.
At this stage, what Xie Xuanji needs most is the support of the people.
The Jiang Mingwei in his memory has always been like this, because of this impression, he concealed the disappearance of Jiang Mingwei, replaced Mu Mingtang, and still let Jiang Mingwei be his wife. Obviously, Jiang Mingwei's smooth and square face is more suitable to be the mistress than Mu Mingtang.
However, in the past six months, Xie Xuanji's impression has been broken over and over again. He first discovered that Jiang Mingwei would be careful, and that he would be superficially magnanimous but would actually harm the women around him. But these are the natural thoughts of a woman after all. If Jiang Mingwei likes him, it will inevitably be jealous.
But tonight Xie Xuanji’s cognition was severely beaten. Jiang Mingwei is not only an ordinary woman, but also a woman who can pick things up and stir up troubles, and is no different from the vulgar woman in his memory. In front of people, Jiang Mingwei has always been knowledgeable and sensible, generous and sensible, but such a "satisfactory internal helper" will ridicule Mu Mingtang from the countryside when there is no one behind.
As for Mu Mingtang who later called Jiang Mingwei a mad dog, Xie Xuanji didn't have any surprises. Maybe, he knew what Mu Mingtang's character was early in the morning. She satirized people only as a normal phenomenon, and being a little more polite was a pleasant surprise.
Xie Xuanji felt that it was too cracked and didn't want to listen any more, so he walked away silently as he came. After he came out, he didn't know why, and there was always a gloom in his chest, so he stopped on the road and waited for Mu Mingtang.
However, Jiang Mingwei is his wife after all. Although Xie Xuanji was also very disappointed with Jiang Mingwei, Mu Mingtang retorted and Xie Xuanji always wanted to protect Jiang Mingwei one or two times. Xie Xuanji avoided the importance and said, "If you hate the things before, you can come to me, don't embarrass Mingwei anymore."
Mu Mingtang showed a strange look when she listened. She glanced at Xie Xuanji and asked, "Didn't I tell you the answer to this question before?"
"I also thought that I had already talked with you." Xie Xuanji said, "but you have targeted Ming Wei several times. If you didn't say that you were jealous for me and Ming Wei, who would believe it? Ming Wei is my regular wife. In any case, I will guarantee her decency. If you deliberately do it to get my attention, you don’t have to."
Mu Mingtang sighed, disgustingly said: "Some people, you really don't understand human words. No wonder you two have become husbands and wives.
Xie Xuanji frowned, feeling that Mu Mingtang's words seemed to point. Mu Mingtang just scolded Jiang Mingwei as a dog, and now he says he doesn't understand human words, and he matches Jiang Mingwei well...
I always feel that she has bad intentions.
Xie Xuanji didn't want to care about Mu Mingtang, and said, "You still said that you are not jealous..."
"His Royal Highness, speak carefully." Before Xie Xuanji finished speaking, Mu Mingtang forcibly interrupted him. The corner of Mu Mingtang's eyes swept around and saw no one else. Even the maid stood far away, unable to hear what they were saying.
Although Xie Xuanji should be more afraid of being discovered than she is, Mu Mingtang couldn't bear it anymore to hear this person so narcissistic. She didn't want to be bumped into, and cause some unnecessary trouble to herself.
Mu Mingtang said: "Xie Xuanji, let me tell you directly. I really didn't like you. I was in Jiang's house, but I acted with you in order to win the trust of Mrs. Jiang Honghao. It seems that I am only responsible for acting too much. Okay, even you believe it. But I really don’t like you, since the beginning."
Mu Mingtang's sincere expression and straightforward tone made Xie Xuanji speechless. Xie Xuanji had many women, he of course could recognize them, did the women tell the truth on purpose or really didn't like them.
However, this is not over yet. Mu Mingtang seemed to be afraid that Xie Xuanji would not believe it, and said sincerely: "It just happens to have a chance today. I take advantage of this one time to say so, so that you don’t continue to misunderstand. I don’t like you now. To be precise, it’s from No. Although I really hated you when you gave me to another man, but now I don’t even hate."
"You and Jiang Mingwei are all burdens from the past."
