Reborn as the General's Wife

Chapter 169 Careful Preparation
Noble status, extraordinary status, outstanding literary talent, beauty and wisdom coexist, this is the little star he once knew, he can be sure, but, in some places, it is not the little star it used to be.

Xu Mu didn't know how long he had read the poem, and finally folded it into a small square and stuck it on his chest, and then his hands hung down weakly.

He suddenly felt unspeakably uncomfortable and lost. When he walked out of the corner, the flow of people actually subsided a little, but there were still many people.

Are you going to find Her Majesty the Princess?

It's your duty to go, protect her!I do not care what time!
A voice finally convinced Xu Mu himself. Coincidentally, not long after, he saw Her Highness the Princess again, and she was walking towards her, not from her back.

"General Xu!"

Facing him head-on, Gu Qingxin was also a little surprised, but the moment she saw Xu Mu, it seemed that something had begun to come to fruition, as if her restless mood had finally been filled by something.

The surprise words were naturally not from Gu Qingxin, but His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince. At this moment, he was holding a lot of food and playthings in his hand, smiling very contentedly, and the people behind him also brought a lot of them.

Seeing a familiar person, Xiao Qi ran over and showed Xu Mu the things in his hands as if they were offering treasures, smiling brows and eyes, "General Xu, look, what I hold in my hand is my sister and brother's guess." What about the spoils won by Lantern Riddles, and those on Xiao Yuanzi? How about it, is my imperial sister good?"

Nature is unique!Xu Mu said something in his heart.

"Xiaoqi, come here, don't block the way of General Xu." It is undeniable that the moment she saw Xu Mu was indeed joyful, but at the same time, she hasn't forgotten what happened a few days ago? No, so now I say that on purpose.

Gu Qingxin had already stepped forward and pulled Xiao Qi who was much closer to her.

"Sister Huang, I'll just show it to General Xu." Xiao Qi was a little reluctant. When he got something, he naturally wanted to show it off. Not in his mood.

As soon as the princess made a sound, Xu Mu stopped in his footsteps, looked up at the face of the princess, and then quickly lowered himself down.

"Is the general busy? If it's okay, you can go with us." The third prince glanced at Gu Qingxin after he finished speaking. In his eyes, this imperial girl and General Xu are just, uh, a little strange.I don't know if she agrees or not.

Gu Qingxin agreed without saying a word, and Gu Minghui was relieved.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I have other things to do today, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go shopping with your Highnesses." Xu Mu lowered his head and bowed his head.

Hearing this, a surprised expression appeared on Gu Qingxin's face, and then she felt a little uncomfortable.how could this be?If it was normal, he would definitely agree. Normally, why would she know so much and think so much?
The third prince was also surprised. Wasn't this General Xu always on call in the past, especially in front of the imperial sister, how did he seem to dodge a little today, and even opposed his proposal?
The third prince wanted to persuade him a few more words, but he heard his imperial sister say, "Since the general has something to do, although it's a pity, we won't make things difficult for others."

Doesn't this cold tone mean that he is in a bad mood?The third prince measured silently in his heart.

"The last general will leave!" Xu Mu felt that he couldn't stay any longer, and when he heard such a bad tone, he felt more and more that what he thought before, that Her Highness the Princess had despised him was true.

After speaking, he walked over quickly without looking back.

"Sister, is General Xu really weird today?" Looking at Xu Mu's back in a hurry, Gu Minghui joked, "I don't know what kind of urgent matter General Xu encountered, so he didn't listen to the emperor's words." gone."

"People have three urgencies, it's normal!" The hasty sentence came out of Gu Qingxin's mouth, and she regretted it a little after she finished speaking. People have three urgencies. What kind of vulgar words are these, how could they come out of her mouth!

The third prince Gu Minghui lowered his head and held back his smile.

"Don't leave yet!" Gu Qingxin didn't look at other people's reactions, and walked forward at a faster pace.

"Xiao Qi, don't look, your sister is angry, why don't you leave?" The third prince grabbed Xiao Qi's hand and hurried to catch up.

Xiao Qi still looked puzzled and puzzled, "Ah, why?"

Because I accidentally made a slip of the tongue, the third prince thought to himself, but, it’s better not to talk to Xiao Qi, otherwise the perfect image of the emperor’s sister in his heart will be shattered, "Well, I’m wrong, okay? Look , there is something beautiful in front of you!"

The third prince pointed to the stall in front of him, and immediately changed the subject smoothly.

Obviously, Xiao Qi has successfully entered Brother Huang's trap, and his attention is completely attracted by the novelty in front of him.

That night, Xiao Qi was very happy, and everyone around him took down the food and play, not to mention that because the two closest people were with him, he was even happier, so that, some other Xiao Qi Trouble, all the unhappy things in the past can be forgotten.

The night was getting darker, but the capital city of the Platinum Kingdom ignored it, and was still immersed in the festive atmosphere. Bright lights lit up in the supposedly silent sky. The Kongming lanterns slowly rose into the sky like sparks, and finally became A small star in the sky gradually disappeared.The light carrying people's wishes also ushered in a new beginning in anticipation.

Not only in the sky, but also on the surface of the water, there are also lotus lanterns floating. The candles are standing still and shining in the stamens, and white lotuses are blooming on the water surface, which can illuminate the entire river in a flash. Beautiful.

"Wow, so beautiful!"

Standing on the bridge, Xiaoqi couldn't help admiring, then turned around, her big wet eyes pulled Gu Qingxin's clothes corner pitifully and beseechingly, "Sister Huang, I also want to release the river lantern!"

"Aren't you tired after playing for so long?" Gu Qingxin stroked Xiaoqi's hair, maybe it's because she has stayed in the palace for a long time these years, and rarely walks on her own feet, and walked around the streets for so long, She actually felt a little tired.If it wasn't for seeing Xiao Qi with such interest and seeing everything new, she probably wouldn't have stayed outside the palace until now.

"I'm not tired. It's hard for me to come out, only once a year, and I don't dare to tire myself out. Sister Huang, Sister Huang..." Continue to beg, "Just promise me."

"Okay, one last item."

"Enn," Xiaoqi nodded like pounding garlic, her little face was flushed with excitement when she got permission, and her eyes were as bright as the lotus lanterns in the lotus pond.

Gu Qingxin asked Xiangsi and Xiaoyuanzi to pick out some river lanterns together, Xiangsi came back soon, Gu Qingxin turned her head, seeing the person who was following Xiangsi with a blurred face, her mood immediately turned bad.

How is he?

Shangguan Feng was holding a very beautiful river lantern in his hand. It was different from other river lanterns. The petals were in the shape of Bingdi lotus, and the shape was much larger. What was even more amazing was that it turned out to be multicolored, with five faces. Each surface is a color, and each surface has a lotus pattern with different postures, and there are poems on it.

The ink was wet, as if it had just been written on.

In the hands of Xiangsi and Xiaoyuanzi, there are several river lanterns. Although they are not as unique as the one in Shangguan Feng's hand, they are delicate enough to make people like them.

"Your Highness, Mr. Shangguan just bought a lot, so you don't need to trouble us if you give it to us." Xiaoyuanzi said with a smile, and he, who has always had a lot of tricks, was also very surprised at this folk gadget at this moment, and immediately praised it after speaking. The lotus lantern that I think is the most beautiful ran to Xiaoqi, asking myself one by one which one does the little master like?

Xiao Qi was delighted to see it, but she always felt dissatisfied when she picked it up and down, she clapped her hands happily for a while, and frowned for a while, as if she couldn't make a choice, but it was very interesting to pick a master and a servant.

Here, Shangguan Feng smiled softly, showing off his gentlemanly demeanor.

"Your Highness, what a coincidence, meeting by chance is worse than inviting each other. This sentence is indeed true."

Gu Qingxin was noncommittal and didn't answer, as if she didn't take it to heart.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Shangguan Feng's face, but it disappeared in a moment, and he was a little puzzled. He asked himself that he had never offended the little princess, why every time he saw the little princess, there was always an illusion that the other party seemed to dislike him very much. After seeing him, he seemed to be in a bad mood.Although the princess didn't show it on her face, he always had such an illusion.

Shangguan Feng has never been a person who gives up halfway. He also has a persistent pursuit in this matter.

Gently raised the lotus lantern in his hand, on his handsome face, there was a charming smile, and the white clothes made him look taller and taller at night, warm and beautiful, "Your Highness, Feng specially chose this lantern for you." of."

This is not an ordinary lamp, it took him a lot of thought, it is very rare to see in the market, today is the Lantern Festival, he sent someone to follow Her Royal Highness early, and spent a little more careful thought in the middle They led them to the bridge calmly, just to let the little prince pester the princess to ask for a river lantern.

As early as Yipinlou knew the identity of Her Highness the Princess, he started to act and sent people to find out a lot of information about Her Highness, and even all the information about the third and seventh princes who had a good relationship with the Princess. He was not disappointed, and the information found was quickly sent to him.
