The dinner was naturally hosted by the host, Shen Tong, to welcome Mu Jingzhao. The dishes were naturally rich, and the table was full of various delicacies.

It stands to reason that this is the duty of a courtier, but now, Mu Jingzhao and his party have seen the bleak scene of the refugees on the road without enough food, and the table full of delicacies seems quite ironic.

Rao is full of food, no matter how rich it is, it also makes people lose their taste.

At the dinner, Shen Tong tried his best to show his flattering and smooth attitude in the officialdom, talking and laughing richly while holding a wine cup, the whole table was filled with his exaggerated laughter.

And Mu Jingzhao, the person he catered to, didn't know if it was because of what he saw during the day that he lost interest, even in the face of the table full of delicacies, he didn't move his chopsticks much.

Only occasionally when Shen Tong called him, he slightly curled his lips, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and remained silent for the rest of the time.

The awkward atmosphere at the table didn't seem to have affected Liu Jinfu at the side at all. She was still dressed in red, sitting indifferently, burying her head and eating the food in front of her carelessly.

She has an amazing appearance and is completely different from the people around her. In addition, she has an extraordinary bearing and an indifferent expression, which makes Shen Tong, who has always been smooth, shrewd and sophisticated, daunted. He only occasionally talks to her tentatively After talking with her and seeing that she did not respond many times, I had to give up.

Jiang Ning has always disliked such scenes, fearing that he would be caught by Master Shen to greet him, so he could only keep stuffing things into his mouth to prove that his mouth was empty.

Shen Tong turned his head to her a few times, but was frightened by her mouth full of food. He originally thought that he should say something out of politeness, but he remembered that Jiang Ning had never been a person who could stand on the stage.

If she accidentally sprayed the food out of her mouth while speaking, the carefully prepared dinner might be ruined, so with this in mind, she had no choice but to let it go.

In the whole banquet, the worst thing was Shen Qingrong. She was also physically and mentally exhausted from the past few days of running around, and it was not easy to get a free time. She wanted to take a good rest and have a peaceful dinner.

Unexpectedly, a table of people who have their own concerns and never like to give others face, unexpectedly made Shen Tong, who was originally a fish in water in interpersonal relationships, touch several soft nails one after another.

Shen Tong, who was bored in his heart but had to act as the master, had no choice, so he also remembered that he could only force his daughter to sing and sing to maintain his appearance.

After a banquet, the father and daughter's faces were almost frozen with laughter, but they didn't make the atmosphere of the dinner any less soothing.

After the dinner was over, Shen Tong took Shen Qingrong to talk about family affairs. Liu Jinfu was still sitting on his seat and didn't intend to leave. People have been stretched limp.

Fortunately, she was wearing loose clothes, otherwise, people would probably think that she was pregnant with a dragon fetus for several months.

"Accompany me for a walk." Mu Jingzhao nudged Jiang Ning lightly with his elbow.

"I won't go." Almost without thinking, she refused. There were no outsiders at the table, so Jiang Ning's behavior became more and more unscrupulous. She lazily touched her round belly, her eyes curved squint.

Mu Jingzhao, who was already depressed in his heart, was mercilessly rejected by her, and he was also a little irritable in his heart. If it was the past, he would probably just let her go.

"Just go for a walk in the garden to digest food."

When she heard about this, she didn't even want to go, "No, my stomach is full and I feel so uncomfortable."

"It's much better to go out for a walk."

It was rare for Jiang Ning to see Mu Jingzhao speak so stubbornly, her half-closed eyes finally opened a little bit, and the moment she raised her eyes, she unconsciously saw Liu Jinfu beside her.

At this moment, she didn't continue to eat anymore, but just sat there with a calm expression, as if she was completely unaware of what happened here.

Could it be that the imperial concubine did not leave because she ate too much?Jiang Ning thought casually.

She carefully recalled the scene of eating not long ago, but she didn't realize that Liu Jinfu ate a lot.

Is it because she has other things?

Her gaze slowly moved to Mu Jingzhao's exceptionally firm gaze, as if she had found some answers from the anomalies of the two.

So she nodded slowly, "Okay."

Hearing what she said, Mu Jingzhao was also slightly stunned for a moment, but then.His face was replaced by even more joy, and he immediately got up and walked out one after the other with Jiang Ning.

On a summer night, the air was filled with noisy insects coming from all directions, the night wind was blowing gently, and there was a little fragrance of grass and trees in the air. Jiang Ning was still a little uncomfortable because of his stomach.

At this moment, the scent of grass and trees in the air unscrupulously poured into her nostrils, even blowing away her boredom.

She walked side by side with Mu Jingzhao, walking unhurriedly on the path without taking anyone with her.

Although this courtyard is not too small compared to a normal house, it can be seen to the end at a glance. Naturally, it is not comparable to the imperial garden in the inner courtyard of the imperial palace.

Mu Jingzhao just walked out a few steps before slowly standing still, and Jiang Ning also stopped following his movements.

"I want to know what you think of this rebellion."

Jiang Ning was slightly taken aback. What Mu Jingzhao said was completely beyond her expectations. She was just a gangster on the street, an outsider of the royal family.

But immediately, she also understood that this is her hometown after all, and in terms of familiarity, she is afraid that no one in the same industry can compare to her.

"It's a bit strange. According to Commander Lin, those who committed the crime didn't seem like they deliberately wanted to create chaos in the city, but they seemed to be seeking revenge."

Mu Jingzhao nodded slightly, expressing his agreement with her statement.

Such a targeted action seems to be the only one that makes sense.

If they were only greedy for money, they probably wouldn't need to make such a big noise and make everyone feel insecure.

This style of behavior seems to deliberately create a terrifying atmosphere, making all his enemies fall into fear.

And his enemy is the rich.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning frowned slightly.

"what happened?"

At this time, it was getting dark, and Mu Jingzhao couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, but he could vaguely feel the contour of her face changed.

"Our goals are too big."

Jiang Ning's voice was very low, but his words paused, and he pronounced his words quite heavily.

Mu Jingzhao was slightly taken aback, and instantly understood the seriousness of the matter.

If those people's goal is all the rich, then their goal at this time is too big, they have already revealed their wealth at the edge of the city, and they live in such a luxurious house when they enter the city.

Such behavior is tantamount to a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.
