With sights coming from all directions, the Sheng family almost panicked for a moment.

After Ji Xuan was stunned, his eyes looked cloudy and uncertain...

Jiang Wanyin had an inexplicable bad feeling in her heart.

"She..." Luo Shi suddenly stood up.

Mrs. Ji glanced over with a sharp look.

Luo Shi felt as if someone had strangled his neck, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

But Mrs. Ji had already smiled and said: "My granddaughter-in-law, you are not feeling well. Didn't I ask you to recuperate in the house and not come back?"

Why are you kid so stubborn and still here?But don’t worry, grandma has informed the Queen Mother about your situation, and the Queen Mother will not blame you..."

Mrs. Ji, who was sitting at the front, was the first to come to her senses. She smiled very naturally and kindly and said, "But since you are here, then come and sit next to grandma."

Mrs. Ji's tone and expression made everyone look like an amiable and tolerant elder.

Sheng Yunzhao didn't seem to hear anything and went straight up the steps. He didn't look at Ji Guogong's table, nor his grandmother and father's table.

Without squinting, he walked to the table of the most distinguished woman in power and stood in front of the table. "Today is the birthday of the Queen Mother. Yun Zhao respectfully wishes the Queen Mother a long and prosperous life."

The Queen Mother's shrewd and wise eyes glanced at her younger sister, Mrs. Ji.

Sheng Yunzhao didn't come today, and my sister gave a rough explanation of the reason.

But Sheng Yunzhao came alone at this time, she thought it would not be easy!

The Queen Mother did not immediately ask her to stand up, but her sharp gaze rested on Sheng Yunzhao's face.

Having been in power for many years, she has already developed the chilling coercion of those in power.

No one could stand her gaze.

However, Sheng Yunzhao was neither humble nor arrogant, calm and measured, and his expression was so calm that he didn't lose the slightest bit of composure.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but secretly praise this magnanimity.

Then his eyes fell on the stone box in her hand.

In this moment of silence, the air seemed to be frozen, giving off a sense of oppression.

Ji Xuan's heart jumped when he saw this, and he secretly cursed the damn woman.

Ji Xuan walked out quickly, and when he came to Sheng Yunzhao's side, Ji Xuan saluted, "Made the Queen Mother laugh."

Then he pulled Sheng Yunzhao's wrist and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "Enough is enough!"

In these words, Ji Xuan already contained a strong warning.

Sheng Yunzhao quickly stepped back without waiting for his hand to grasp his wrist.

Avoiding Ji Xuan's touch: "Your Majesty, why should you whitewash the peace? If the sore is not burst, it will only fester deeper. Your Majesty should know what it means to stop losses in time!"

Since his birth, Ji Xuan has been pampered and pampered by his grandmother and mother. It is not an exaggeration to say that he can call the wind and rain...

Whatever he wants, his grandmother and mother will give it to him!

Except for hiring children...

That was probably the most frustrating experience he had ever had in his life.

But no matter what, it's just a matter at home, behind closed doors.

At this time, he and Sheng Yunzhao had become the focus of this event.

In front of everyone, he felt as if he was naked and being watched, as if he was extremely embarrassed.

When Ji Xuan heard her heartless words, his eyes turned gloomy, "If you continue to persist in your obsession, you will cause yourself great harm!"

There was a touch of sarcasm in Sheng Yunzhao's cold eyes, "If the prince threatens me, why don't we seriously consider how we can get together and part ways? At least we can retain the last bit of dignity."

After saying that, she stopped talking to Ji Xuan and looked at the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother did not hear what the couple said, but she could see from their expressions that there was a deep gap between them.

The Queen Mother glanced at Hu Dezhong, the steward, and said with a smile: "Ji Xuan, why did you make your wife unhappy?

The Ai family has to talk about you. A girl’s family wants to be coaxed. Aren’t you usually very personable?Come on, say a few soft words, and the Ai family will believe that your wife will definitely show off her beauty..."

The Queen Mother was giving a subtle hint to Ji Xuan to coax him away first and talk later. After all, the situation today was different and it would not look good no matter what the reason was.

But as soon as the Queen Mother said these words, everyone present burst into laughter, not knowing whether they were deliberately cooperating with the Queen Mother or feeling that there was something exciting to watch.

Ji Xuan forced out an awkward smile, but was speechless. Even though he thought his demeanor was okay, he couldn't resist Sheng Yunzhao, who had such a stubborn temper, and was at his wits' end.

At this time, Princess Baoqi's eyes narrowed, remembering what the prince said to her, she immediately raised her voice and said: "In my opinion, it's because the prince's cousin is too graceful that some people kick him in the face!"

Although there is no trace of this matter, even if the prince is trying to catch someone up or has other motives, the fact that the prince does not say anything but others only talks about her, proves that Sheng Yunzhao is not content with the family, and must have seduced Yue Chenyan, so he deserves to die.

Hu Dezhong received the Queen Mother's signal and immediately stepped forward to take the stone box from Sheng Yunzhao.

He held it in front of the Queen Mother with both hands. For safety reasons, he first carefully opened the stone box little by little.

After seeing the contents of the stone box clearly, Hu Dezhong's eyes suddenly widened, and the surprise in his eyes was self-evident.

The Queen Mother saw a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Before she could speak, Hu Dezhong quickly opened the lid of the box and pushed it towards the Queen Mother.

After seeing what was inside, the Queen Mother raised her eyes and blurted out: "This is..."

"Back to the Queen Mother, Yun Zhao accidentally obtained a box of Beauty Pills from a wandering Taoist. According to him, taking this pill not only strengthens the body, but also improves the appearance.

If you take this elixir for a long time, it is said to have the effect of delaying aging and making your face radiant and youthful forever.

Because Yun Zhao felt that the other party was deliberately exaggerating the facts, he took two pills in advance and unexpectedly felt very good.

So he sent someone to find a few doctors to verify it repeatedly, but the doctors said that it was indeed a good thing.

If this is really a good thing, Yun Zhao doesn't dare to keep it to himself, but wants to give it to the Queen Mother first..."

As soon as Sheng Yunzhao said these words, all the women present made an uproar.

What woman doesn't love beauty?

What woman doesn’t want to stay young forever?

This kind of thing is simply too tempting for women.

However, after Yue Chenyan heard her words, his eyes were dark and unpredictable. She didn't take out the red stone?

She missed those red stones so much, but now she didn't take them out.

Is she... doing it for herself?

Now Yue Chenyan can't understand Sheng Yunzhao a little bit.

If she hadn't wanted to distance herself, she wouldn't have gone to such trouble.

Is she not what he thought she was towards Ji Xuan?

But the little girl said it cleverly, leaving no clue for herself. Even if the Queen Mother wanted this thing again, she would be able to blame it on the unwarranted wandering Taoist priest.

Wandering Taoist priest?

Haha, what a wandering Taoist priest, only she can think of it...

He slowly loosened his grip, slowly twisted the beads, and slightly curled his lips to watch the changes.
