Chapter 285
"Your Majesty, Your Highness is suffering too," Sang Ye persuaded in a weak voice, "The Holy Majesty only reuses a virtuous king... Your Majesty is even complaining about your Highness... Not to mention His Highness's heart."

The empress sat back and sighed heavily.

Feng Ye took the initiative to step forward and gently pressed the temples for the empress.At the same time, she cast an admiring glance at Sang Ye.

It was only Sang Ye who had the ability, and with a few simple words, she calmed down the empress's anger.

Sang Ye took a rest, and continued to persuade: "Slaves are useless, let the maids come in to make up and change the empress...the empress must not follow those people's ways."

The empress's eyes are sharp, yes, if she becomes decadent, it will only make relatives hurt and enemies happy.

The empress leaned in front of the vanity mirror and carefully looked at herself in the mirror.

The unhappiness during this period of time was all shown on her face.

She found that a few more wrinkles had been added to the corners of her eyes, and when her face was expressionless, she couldn't hide the tired look on her face.

No wonder King Jin refused to see her.

King Jin was well maintained, and he was as energetic as a young man in his prime.

She is just an old lady, and the years have not let her go.

There was only a moment of gloom, and the empress cheered up again when she thought of the prince and Changle.

"Maple Leaf, put some more powder on me."

"Yes." Feng Ye picked up the powder box and continued to put on makeup on the empress, trying to cover the bruises under her eyes.

Outside the palace, many people gathered in the streets and alleys.

Everyone knew that today was the day when General Li and King Xian went to war, and they lined up on both sides of the road, occupying good positions to watch the excitement.

In the restaurant facing the street, in the box on the second floor, Duke Dingguo's mansion has already reserved a seat.

Under the urging of Mu Qingqiu and Guo Nian'er, Mu Qingyu had just finished her breakfast when they dragged her into the private room.

This wait is several hours.

Near noon, the three of them ordered a table of dishes.

When Mu Qingyu was eating a bowl of egg custard, the two of them had already run to the window, saw something, and were chatting.

After getting along for a long time, the relationship between the two is very good.

Both of them have a lively temperament. When they are good, they can't wait to stay together day and night, quarreling and ignoring each other all day and night.

"Huh? Isn't that our family's carriage?" Mu Qingqiu pointed at the carriage coming from afar.

Guo Nian'er saw it too, and the carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley.

There were so many people gathered here that it was obviously impossible for a carriage to pass.

After a while, people got off the carriage.

Seeing Ping An first, the two of them guessed who was in the carriage.

Ping An jumped out of the carriage, turned around and helped the people in the carriage get off.

Guo Nian'er clapped his hands and smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were stained with a smile.She turned her head and said crisply: "Cousin, cousin is here, you eat less and leave some for cousin."

"Ahem..." Mu Qingyu coughed a few times, and Mo Zhu hurriedly carried her back.

Mu Qingyu spit out the egg custard that he couldn't swallow on the handkerchief.

Mo Zhu hurriedly took out another clean one and asked Mu Qingyu to wipe his mouth.

"I just ate a bowl of egg custard, and besides, Big Brother might have come here after lunch." Mu Qingyu defended himself.

It's just that Guo Nian'er, who was full of Mu Jiayan's words, couldn't listen to Mu Qingyu's words at all.

Guo Nian'er called the waiter from the restaurant, ordered a few more dishes, and asked the waiter to remove all the dishes that were not steaming from the table.

Mu Qingqiu walked in, sat next to Mu Qingyu, and belatedly asked, "Why is cousin so nice to big brother?"

Mu Qingyu shook his head with a smile, Mu Qingqiu and Guo Nian'er were almost stuck together, finally saw it.

After busying around, Guo Nian'er stood at the door, waiting for Mu Jiayan to come over.

After a while, she heard footsteps approaching and Ping An's voice.

The door opened with a creak, and Guo Nian'er's bright smile froze on his face.

Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingqiu hurriedly looked at the door, only to see that there was not only Mu Jiayan standing at the door, but also another woman.

That woman was gentle and generous, she was exactly Zhou Yuanying whom Mu Qingyu had met not long ago.

Thinking of that night, Mu Jiayan went out of the house late at night just to see Zhou Yuanying.

When Mu Qingyu looked at the eyes of those two again, it became complicated.

The dissatisfaction in Guo Nian'er's heart was almost written on his face.

"Three younger sisters." Zhou Yuanying greeted her gently.

Mu Qingyu stood up, "Sister Yuanying, please come in."

Zhou Yuanying glanced at Mu Jiayan first, and then walked in after seeing Mu Jiayan walking inside.

Seeing the appearance of these two people, Guo Nian'er almost gritted his teeth.

She walked back and sat in the corner angrily, without saying a word.

Zhou Yuanying couldn't ignore Guo Nianer's resentment, and explained: "I also came out today to see the demeanor of General Li and His Highness the Xian Wang. I never thought that I would come out late, and the boxes by the window were full. Fortunately, I think When I went back, I ran into my cousin."

Mu Jiayan had already taken his seat, and upon hearing the words, he only said, "Cousin, don't be restrained."

"Thank you." Zhou Yuanying walked over and naturally sat down not far from Mu Jiayan.

Guo Nian'er was even more annoyed, wishing she could throw Zhou Yuanying out of the window.

She didn't believe it was a coincidence, it was clearly planned by Zhou Yuanying.

Zhou Yuanying looked around calmly, and it seemed that Mu Qingyu was the best friend.

"Sister Qingyu, will your marriage with General Li be in the spring of next year?" Zhou Yuanying asked.

Zhou Yuanying's generous and open expression made Mu Qingyu forget her shyness, and said as usual: "My sister has a good memory."

"I hope that General Li can return safely from victory before then." Zhou Yuanying said sincerely.

What she said was true.

Once on the battlefield, it will be as short as a few months, as long as several years, there is no fixed number.

Mu Qingyu didn't know whether Li Zhao could come back before the wedding.

Thinking of this, her smile became more burdened and worried.

Seeing this, Zhou Yuanying knew that she had said something wrong, so she stopped mentioning General Li and only said some irrelevant things.

After talking for a while, there was a sudden burst of noise downstairs, and one didn't need to go out to see that it must be the team of Xian Wang and Li Zhao.

Several people got up and walked towards the window.

Guo Nian'er, who was sulking, also walked over, but her eyes seemed to be glued to Mu Jiayan and Zhou Yuanying, and she couldn't leave them for a moment.

Guo Nian'er snorted and walked out suddenly.

But except for a few servants who noticed it, everyone else was concentrating on watching the team that was slowly approaching not far away.

The team was still some distance away, and only a few vague figures could be seen.

Among the first few people, one was the tallest with a straight back.

Just from a vague shadow, one feels as if one is facing thousands of troops and horses, as if one is on the battlefield of chilling, if one is not careful, one's body will be crushed to pieces.
