The emperor's scheming: alluring the world

Chapter 48
After the fifth prince made a toast to Empress Wu, he stepped back to Wei Jinyang and said in a concerned voice, "Brother Huang, what's the matter with you and the queen mother?"

Wei Jinyang was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and said after a while: "It's nothing, don't worry." Wei Jinyang knew that although his fifth younger brother was indifferent to his mother on the face, in fact, he longed for maternal love deep down in his heart, but the mother's love for her He is too harsh and strict, so that he does not know how to get close.

The fifth prince, Wei Haoyou, naturally didn't believe it. He stared at Wei Jinyang for a long time, then turned his head to look at Empress Wu, and then said softly: "Brother, you have always respected your mother, but this time I come back, But I found that you are extremely alienated from your mother, even though you still have respect, it is no longer from the heart, what happened between you and your mother?"

Wei Jinyang glanced at Empress Wu unconsciously when he heard the words, and finally said with disappointment in his eyes: "Fifth brother, she is our mother queen, and this will never change, but my mother and I will never go back to the past. Once destroyed, it will be lost forever." After Wei Jinyang finished speaking, he returned to his seat, drooping his eyes in deep thought.

Li Sister had never seen Wei Jinyang like this before, so she couldn't help but take a second look, only to find that even if it was just a side face of him, there was still a beauty that could not be ignored, but why was this handsome face... Can't find it.

Li Meizhen watched Wei Jinyang lose his mind because of the doubts in his heart. Mo Shu behind her felt strange, so she followed her gaze to Wei Jinyang, when Mo Shu's eyes were fixed on Wei Jinyang's side face When she came up, she couldn't help being startled in her heart, and looked away in a little panic.

Feeling the gaze from his side, Wei Jinyang involuntarily raised his head to look to his side, but accidentally bumped into Li Sister's hazy peach blossom eyes, his heart tightened for a moment, and there was a flash of ecstasy in his eyes .

Li Meizhen didn't expect that she would stare at Wei Jinyang's side face in a daze, and she was discovered by the person concerned, especially the hot and infatuated love in those narrow eyes, which made her heart tighten, and she turned her eyes away in panic, For the first time, her heart rhythm was out of balance because of his eyes.

Li Meizheng's panic made the ecstasy in Wei Jinyang's eyes even worse. Looking at her white and jade-like cheeks with a pink blush, tender and cute, this seems to be a sign of shyness, and it has always been Yun Danqing For her who is in the wind, these emotions now appear, does it mean that all his efforts have finally begun to pay off, and all the unhappiness has been replaced by the ecstasy of being overwhelmed.

Li Meizhen took a few deep breaths to calm her beating heart, she didn't know why she suddenly lost her habitual calmness, and she acted like a guilty child who had been exposed.

"Princess, do you want to return the wine to Princess Jiangning and Princess Minxian?" Mo Shu also saw that Li Meiying was wrong, so he bowed his head at the right time and made an excuse.

Li Meizhen nodded hurriedly, took the wine that Mo Shu handed over, and went to Princess Jiangning and Princess Minxian who were seated opposite.King Jiangning and Emperor Cheng are cousins. The King Jiangning, who is proficient in the six arts, has no intention of court affairs. He has always been an idle rich prince in Beijing. Master, Princess Minxian is cute and cute, with a lively and straightforward temperament. Li Sister-in-law and Princess Minxian have only met a few times, but they just nodded their friendship, but they really like Princess Minxian in their hearts.

"Concubine, princess, sister-in-law would like to offer you a glass of wine." Standing still at the table of Princess Jiangning and Princess Minxian, Li sister-in-law said softly with a smile.

Princess Jiangning looked at this face that was exactly the same as in her memory, and she was full of emotion in her heart. She picked up the tea and drank it instead of wine, then she reached out and gently took Li Meiying's hand and said, "Princess, I have You are not in good health, you seldom go out of the mansion, and you have never visited you since you built the mansion, to be honest, I am sorry for your mother."

Li Sister-in-law didn't know about the friendship between Princess Jiangning and her mother, but she could always find the same demureness in Princess Jiangning as her mother's body, so she felt a little close to her. Said, she looked at Princess Jiangning in a little shock.She knew that Princess Jiangning was not in good health, and she almost didn't leave the palace all year round. She couldn't justify her participation in this palace banquet, so she reluctantly attended.

"Wangfei knows my mother?" It took a long time for Li Sister to find her own voice. She did not expect that Princess Jiangning and her mother were familiar, and hearing Princess Jiangning's tone, it seemed that the friendship between the two was not normal.

Princess Jiangning is weak and should not stand for a long time. She ordered the maid to put another chair beside her, pulled Li Meiying to sit down, looked at Mo Shu and said, "Sister Mo Shu, I haven't seen you for many years. leave any marks on his body."

A sentence of sister Mo Shu reminded Mo Shu of the past when she was young, and she replied with slightly moist eyes: "The princess is still beautiful, but her body is still weak."

Concubine Jiang Ning smiled with downcast eyes in embarrassment: "They are all in their 30s, old."

"I didn't know that the princess, the queen mother, and Aunt Mo were old acquaintances. If I knew, I would go to the palace to pay a visit early." After hearing what Mo Shu and Princess Jiang Ning said, Li Meiying suddenly realized a lot, and her tone was a little excited road.

"Concubine Mu, it turns out that the elder sister you miss is Princess Yingsu, so can I often go to play with the princess sister in the future?" Princess Minxian asked expectantly, blinking her big clear black eyes.

Princess Jiangning didn't answer Princess Minxian's words, but just looked at Li Sister-in-law.Li Meiying looked at Princess Minxian and felt envious in her heart. If the ancient country hadn't been ruined and the family was destroyed, and her father and queen mother were still there, she should be as lively and straightforward as Princess Minxian, instead of full of tricks.

"Of course, sister Min can even live in the Princess Mansion for a short time." Li Meiying pursed her lips and smiled, and said in a friendly tone.

Seeing that Li Meiying's smile was friendly this time, the uneasiness in Princess Minxian's heart eased a little, she boldly stepped forward to hold Li Meiying's hand, and said, "Is it really possible? It's just Xiaozhudu no problem!"

"It's really okay, even if you stay for a while, it's fine." Li Sister-in-law felt that she was talking to her little sister, and unconsciously stretched out her hand to gently scratch Princess Minxian's pretty nose, which made Princess Minxian giggle. chuckled out loud.

The fifth prince Wei Haoyou, who was seated opposite, looked at Li Meiying's delicate and peach-like face, his eyes darkened unconsciously, and his thin lips evoked a playful smirk.This Princess Yingsu seems to be different from the women around him, sometimes indifferent, sometimes aggressive, sometimes smiling coquettishly, she doesn't seem to care about other people's eyes at all, and does everything as she pleases.
