Unscrupulous stick: kidnap a regent to farm

Chapter 280 Palace Banquet 2
Hearing the sound, everyone was silent. In the next second, someone was the first to start chatting. Seeing that this man was so bold, the others looked at Duanmuhan in unison. Seeing that he really didn't care, they breathed a sigh of relief and chatted as before. Everyone, in the blink of an eye, the whole hall became noisy again.

Seeing the situation, Duanmuhan raised his eyebrows and said to Long Yuejiao, "Are you satisfied now?"

Long Yuejiao pursed her lips, stared at him and said, "What do you mean I am satisfied? It seems that you are forced to do something you don't like."

"No." Rao was stupid in this regard, but he knew she was a little angry.

Seeing what he said, Long Yuejiao crossed her arms and said angrily, "You still said no, you obviously mean that."

These words made Duanmuhan a little helpless, he didn't know how to answer, he just stared at her blankly.

One second, two seconds, three seconds... I don't know how long it took, Long Yuejiao felt a little uncomfortable, put down her hands, squinted at him and said, "What are you looking at, it's so annoying!"

"I..." Duanmu paused, trying to explain at a loss, but he didn't know how to explain.

His appearance was seen by Long Yuejiao, she felt a sweet taste in her heart, puffed her lips, and said quietly, "Okay, no need to explain, I'm not angry with you."

"Really?" He raised his voice, his tone tinged with joy.

Long Yuejiao nodded.

Duanmuhan couldn't help reaching out to caress her hand, and cast his tender eyes on her.

His blatant 'flirting/playing' made Long Yuejiao angry, she quickly withdrew her hands and looked around in a panic.

Seeing her like this, Duanmuhan smiled warmly, staring deeply at her cheek.

Facing his gaze, Long Yue shyly blamed her, so she didn't speak. When she looked around, she suddenly caught sight of a familiar face, and she was stunned for several seconds.

"Miss Long." Zhao Yunling stared at her closely, his lips slightly parted.

Long Yuejiao couldn't hear it, but she could understand that he was calling her, so she nodded slightly.

Zhao Yunling raised his eyebrows, as if he wanted to say a lot, but because the distance between the two was too far, he was afraid that she would not be able to hear him, so he didn't speak, he just pursed his lips and looked at her.

Long Yuejiao seemed to know what he meant, she just smiled at him, rolled her eyes and looked elsewhere.

This time, she looked left and right for a while, seeing that she didn't see any acquaintances again, and there was no interesting scene to watch, so she looked away and played with her fingers.

After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly thought of something, turned her head and said to Duanmuhan, "Didn't you go to help the emperor before? Why did you suddenly go to the water palace?"

She thought, the Lei'er that the queen mother spoke of should be the emperor, otherwise, how could she be so intimate?As for him asking her to enter the palace, he wanted to take her to the emperor's birthday banquet.

Duanmuhan's eyes flickered slightly, and he said lightly, "This king is looking for you on purpose. I have finished dealing with the emperor's affairs. I wanted to go back to the Queen Mother's bedroom to find you. I didn't want to. I went there and found that you were not there, so I went all the way." After Xunwen, I learned that you have gone to the palace on the water, so I went to look for you."

"Oh." Long Yue responded coquettishly, lowered her eyes, and did not speak again.

Seeing this, Duanmuhan tapped the table with his fingertips and fell into deep thought.

For a long time, Long Yue, who hadn't spoken for a long time, turned her head to look at a certain person sitting on the right, only to see her eyes dodge, and she hurriedly lowered her head.

This appearance made Long Yuejiao couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile. She looked at her for a long time, why, she didn't dare to face her directly?
With a cold snort in her heart, Long Yuejiao squinted her eyes and carefully observed the people sitting beside her. Seeing that there were no acquaintances, she immediately wondered, why?
Why can't Long Qiaoyu see Mrs. Zhao?Why is she sitting next to a bunch of people she doesn't know well?Who are these to her?

While thinking, Long Yuejiao looked at Zhao Yunling, even if Long Qiaoyu entered the palace, she should be by Zhao Houye's side, after all, he is her grandfather, isn't he?

Unable to figure it out, Long Yuejiao couldn't help but sighed softly.

This sigh woke Duanmuhan from his contemplation. He looked at her and whispered, "Why are you sighing?"

Long Yuejiao winked at him and said, "You don't understand."

"I'll understand after you tell me." He answered loudly.

Long Yue opened her lips tenderly, and shook her head again after a long while, "Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you."

Duanmuhan: "..."

After a long silence, Duanmuhan said, "If you don't tell me, I will never understand. If you tell me, I can understand."

After looking at him for a while, Long Yuejiao raised her eyebrows, "Okay, since you said so, I'll tell you."

"Yeah." He listened attentively.

"Remember my second mother?" she asked.

Duanmuhan nodded, "I remember."

"Didn't she take her daughter away?"

"Ah."

Squinting her eyes, Long Yuejiao continued, "You probably don't know her original identity. She is the daughter of a Lord Marquis. After she left, she seemed to return to her family, but I saw my second mother's daughter here. That is my half-sister, Long Qiaoyu, but she doesn't have my second mother, let alone her grandfather. I sigh because I don't know why she didn't follow her grandfather, but sat next to a stranger. .”

"Where is Long Qiaoyu?" Duanmuhan narrowed his eyes and asked.

Long Yue jerked her lips, pointed her eyes to the direction where Long Qiaoyu was on the right, and said, "Look, she's right there, and the one with her head hanging down is her."

Duanmuhan glanced over, and when he saw that young face, he said, "She doesn't look like you." This was the first time he saw Long Qiaoyu.

Long Yue looked at him tenderly and snorted coldly.

Duanmuhan frowned, and said, "The middle-aged man next to her is a second-rank official of this dynasty. I heard that he has no daughter, but his wife really wants a daughter. From what I can see now, Long Qiao Yu was recognized as a daughter by them."

"Why did they suddenly recognize Long Qiaoyu? How did they know her?" Long Yuejiao asked curiously.

Duanmuhan flicked his sleeve with one hand, put the other on his lap, and said flatly, "What's so strange about this? You said her grandfather was a marquis, so it's easy for him to make friends with a few ministers. If you want to introduce your granddaughter Give them, it's easier."

After a pause, he said, "If he knows that the minister wants a daughter, it will be easier than ever to make Long Qiaoyu the minister's daughter on purpose."

"So that's how it is." Long Yuejiao understood, and asked again, "But what did they want to make Long Qiaoyu recognize this minister?"

"My Daqing, there are many such stories. For example, some women are of low status, but they are favored by a nobleman. Then, in order to let that woman marry him as his own wife, that nobleman will find ways to make people I recognized this woman as a daughter-in-law, in this case, her status will be in line with that noble, and getting married will naturally be a no-brainer."

"You mean, Long Qiaoyu wanted to marry into a wealthy family, so she recognized this minister as her godfather?" Long Yuejiao guessed.
