After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 83
Standing beside Jiang Ning, Mu Jingzhao looked down at her for a long time, his eyes fixed on the blackness in front of Jiang Ning's eyes.

During this period of time, he has seen all of Jiang Ning's running around and working hard, and now seeing that even in her sleep, she is inevitably running around and working hard for the imperial concubine's birthday, Mu Jingzhao's eyes showed a bit of distress.

If it was said that Jiang Ning was working hard for Liu Jinfu, he could see everything in his eyes, and if it was said that the two were just casual acquaintances, Mu Jingzhao would not believe it.

But... Looking at Jiang Ning's sleeping face, Mu Jingzhao gradually lost his mind.

The surroundings fell silent, only the hurried footsteps of the maids and eunuchs came and went, and the warm spring breeze blew past with a little smell of water, and there seemed to be a bit of magnolia fragrance in the depths of the breeze.

The spring sunshine fell on Jiang Ning's forehead just right, like a bright little mole.Mu Jingzhao's eyes fell on her face following the ray of sunlight.

He thought, if Jiang Ning was awake, she would start chirping and calling him to help her with various tasks.

Mu Jingzhao secretly felt that she was much cuter when she was asleep than when she was awake.

He looked carefully at her almost flawless, pink and white girlish face.

Why can someone be well versed in the world and at the same time full of sincerity?

Mu Jingzhao didn't understand.

He couldn't see so many puzzles on Jiang Ning clearly, and he gradually couldn't see himself clearly afterward.

Sometimes he would ask himself repeatedly, why he couldn't help getting close to her even though there were so many puzzles and dangers in this person?

But no matter how much he asked himself, he couldn't get a clear answer.

It's like he also doesn't understand why he is always unwilling to find Concubine Zhen Ning.

Mu Jingzhao's thoughts wandered, and his eyes slowly fell on the half-trimmed magnolia branches beside Jiang Ning.

He sighed slightly, bent over and squatted down, and took the pair of scissors from her hand.

Unexpectedly, his actions caused Jiang Ning, who was sleeping soundly, to tilt suddenly, and the whole person fell towards him.

Mu Jingzhao turned pale with shock, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to grab her arm, but was worried that the scissors in his hand would accidentally hurt her.

In a hurry, he could only hold her arm with his wrist to stabilize it, then sat down immediately, took Jiang Ning's arm and let her lean on his shoulder.

Even after such a toss, Jiang Ning is still asleep. The hard work of so many days seems to have exhausted all her energy, causing her whole body to fall into a kind of self-avoiding dormancy.

The surrounding area was quiet, and occasionally a few court ladies and eunuchs rushed past with things in their hands. When they saw the two of them leaning on each other in their positions, there was a tacit and malicious smile on their faces, and then they left in a hurry.

After such an experience, everyone in the palace may have already decided that Jiang Ning will be the master of the harem sooner or later.

Mu Jingzhao casually pruned the flower branches, as if he didn't pay attention to the strange eyes of the palace people.

After many times of training by Jiang Ning, he seems to have trained his face to be indestructible.

He was quietly trimming the flower branches, and Jiang Ning's steady and soothing breathing sounded in his ears, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers.

Numerous movements of bowing his head and turning his face to the side, Mu Jingzhao's cheek rubbed against the top of Jiang Ning's hair, and the tingling sensation made him a little restless.

Soon, Mu Jingzhao finished pruning all the flower branches. He put the scissors aside casually, but there was no unnecessary movement. He just sat quietly, watching the palace people coming and going in front of him, feeling the flow of spring, smelling the wind. Magnolia in the bouquet.

Gradually, he also seemed to forget the time.

This warm and comfortable feeling trapped Mu Jingzhao, and he gradually became a little sleepy. After yawning several times, he finally closed his eyes slightly and leaned against Jiang Ning's head.

Just when Mu Jingzhao's consciousness was about to withdraw, Lin Zheng walked quickly from the side of the pavilion dressed in black. He looked at the drowsy two clinging to each other, and turned his face away indifferently.

"Your Majesty." Lin Zheng bowed and saluted, speaking in a moderate voice.

Mu Jingzhao's eyes that had been closed just now slowly opened again, but his body did not move extra, "What's the matter?"

Lin Zheng didn't change his expression, "Your Prime Minister, General Liu, and Shangshu Shen have already entered the palace and are walking towards here."

Mu Jingzhao turned his face slightly, and looked at Jiang Ning beside him, "I see, I will send Concubine Ning back to the palace first, and then I will go to meet you." As he said, he stood up with one hand on Jiang Ning's shoulder, trying to Take Jiang Ning away horizontally.

Unexpectedly, the moment he reached out to hug Jiang Ning, her eyes widened instantly, and she struggled to get up from Mu Jingzhao's arms. She stood up in a panic while tugging at the folds of her dress.

"Ha, it's okay, the concubine is fine, the concubine can go by herself."

The hand that was supporting Jiang Ning suddenly disappeared. Mu Jingzhao's expression remained unchanged. He turned his head to look at Lin Zheng who was standing beside him, and then looked away.

Perhaps it was because she had just slept for a long time, and Jiang Ning's face still had some traces of being pressed out. On the originally neatly combed bun, the strands of hair were a little disobedient. Inexplicably, there is a bit of cuteness that I still feel sorry for.

Mu Jingzhao saw that she was in a hurry, so he didn't say much, but stretched out his hand unconsciously to straighten her disheveled hair.

As if aware of Mu Jingzhao's movements, Jiang Ning's eyes widened in horror, and then he shrank back unconsciously, avoiding the other party's action of arranging his hair.

Mu Jingzhao paused, but didn't take it back. He just turned his head slightly to look at Lin Zheng behind him, and put his hand on Jiang Ning's shoulder and patted it lightly.

"It's just in time for you to wake up, the guests are here, you go with me to welcome them."

The movements of Jiang Ning's hands paused, and she thought subconsciously, it was considered an exception for her to hold a birthday banquet for the noble concubine, and she went to greet the guests with the emperor, is this really compliant?

Although she didn't know what conflicts had arisen between the queen and the emperor, she was very sure that if she went on like this, she would definitely be hated by the queen.

However, Mu Jingzhao seemed to have a different understanding of her hesitation. Before Jiang Ning could agree, he grabbed her wrist and dragged Jiang Ning away.

The height gap between the two of them is huge, and Mu Jingzhao's strides are huge, almost dragging Jiang Ning forward forcibly.

His strength was so strong that Jiang Ning's wrist was slightly painful. Before he left the pavilion, he turned his head and looked at Lin Zheng. His gaze seemed to be jealous or provocative.
