After rebirth I became a femme fatale

Chapter 20 Dead Eyes

In the study room of the East Palace, Bailiyou had nothing to do and was painting. Suddenly he put down his pen and looked up to the door. A guard fell from the roof and knelt on one knee.

"How?" He asked, his voice was clear and steady, very nice.

"Miss Mu is in the prime minister's residence. Today is Miss Jiang's birthday."

Bailiyou raised his hand lightly, and the guard stepped back, staring at the painting thoughtfully.

The prime minister's mansion?

Suddenly, he got up and walked out, and the guards behind him immediately followed.

Personal guard Liuying couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, where are you going?"

"Prime Minister's Mansion."

Prime Minister's Mansion?Liu Ying is unclear, so, is the prince also going to celebrate Miss Jiang's birthday? ? ?
It doesn't seem to make sense!

-

In the lobby, Prime Minister Jiang and his wife were receiving guests.

"Father!" A clear voice caused everyone to turn their heads to look.

"Hey, daughter, come to meet all the uncles." The prime minister was a little embarrassed, his daughter was more lively.

Jiang's mother hurriedly gave her daughter a wink. With so many people present, the Prime Minister's Mansion must not lose face.

Jiang Xingge didn't expect that all the adults who had good friends with his father were there, he froze for a moment, then restrained his bright smile, walked into the room obediently, and bowed politely: "Hello, everyone, it was Xingge just now. I’m sorry, but I hope you will forgive me.”

If she had known there were so many people, she wouldn't have come, and she had to deal with it.
Jiang Xingsheng also followed suit.

Jiang's father said cheerfully, "My ignorance makes everyone laugh."

"No problem, no problem, Ling Ai is smart and alert. If my family is half as smart as Ling Ai, that would be great." Mr. Fang, the Secretary of the Household Department who has the best relationship with the prime minister, answered the words immediately, looking at Jiang Xingge's eyes I really like it a little bit.

Jiang Xingge looked down at her toes and said nothing. Uncle Fang watched her grow up and understood her temperament.

Seeing her obedient appearance, Mu Qingyan smiled, wondering how many people in Beijing were fooled by her cousin.

When Shangguanrou came to the hall, he saw his daughter at a glance, and called her to come over.

Mu Qingyan raised her eyes and nodded, and walked over. Although her movements were very light, she still attracted the attention of others.

Only now did Master Fang notice her, and he couldn't help being taken aback: "Miss Mu?"

In a blink of an eye, the Mujiang family are cousins, so it is understandable for her to come on her cousin's birthday.

His eyes fell on Shangguan Rou, and Master Fang became a little more respectful, "The princess is well."

Shangguan smiled softly, "Fang Shangshu is well."

Mu Qingyan also bowed politely, "Hello, my lord."

Fang Shangshu was a little panicked, "The princess is joking." This is the biological mother of the prospective princess.

Miss Mu is the princess-to-be, so it stands to reason that he will still salute her when he sees her in the future, so he dare not neglect her.

Shangguan Rou looked helplessly at his daughter, Mu Qingyan smiled slightly, and then looked at Father Jiang and Mother Jiang.

"Uncle, aunt."

"Hey, Miss Mu." Jiang's father replied so quickly that he couldn't contain the love in his eyes.

His niece is a real lady, but she is a bit stubborn.

If he hadn't devoted all his attention to the Second Highness, he would have liked it more.

It's a pity, alas!
Seeing his flash of disappointment, Mu Qingyan knew what he was thinking, after all, she was about to become famous.

But she will slowly change all this, and change their perception of her.

Jiang Xingge couldn't take it anymore, "Father, can I leave with Qingyan first?" The officialdom really doesn't suit her.

"It's not good for my sister to leave so early." Jiang Wan said at the door.

Jiang Xingge raised his eyelids, and turned back indifferently: "It's not good for you to appear in front of me."

Jiang Wan's pupils shrank, she didn't expect that she would refute her in front of her father and Fang Shangshu, and almost gritted her teeth.

Jiang's father frowned slightly, and his tone was low: "Why don't you stay in the house well, what are you doing here?"

Jiang Wan's face changed slightly, the handkerchief in her hand tightened, but there was a gentle smile on her face: "What did the father say, the daughter is naturally celebrating her sister's birthday."

Damn Jiang Xingge made her look ugly again. If it wasn't for her father, how could she treat her like this.

Mu Qingyan looked at Jiang Wan indifferently. Compared with his father, his uncle was more eccentric. He preferred his legitimate son and daughter. Although his father was not good at expressing, he was not bad at Mu Yun and Chen'er.

It's a pity that Mu Yun didn't realize it.

She can understand Jiang Wan better, but if people forget their roots, it will be bad.

Father Jiang snorted coldly, and stopped talking to her, how could he not know what was going on in Jiang Wan's heart.

How can Fang Shangshu not understand his friend, even he doesn't like this concubine who loves to compete for the limelight.

The scene was awkward for an instant, Mother Jiang came out to smooth things over, "Okay, the time is coming soon, the children are also hungry, let them sit."

Mu Qingyan answered at the right time: "Yes, Uncle, Yan'er hasn't eaten yet."

As soon as he heard that his niece was still hungry, Jiang's father immediately put Jiang Wan behind him and warmly greeted everyone to sit down.

This contrast in attitude made Jiang Wan feel even more jealous. She was about to speak and raised her head when she met Jiang's mother's warning eyes, and let go of the blockage in her heart.

She turned her head to avoid Jiang's mother's sight, and saw Mu Qingyan lowering her head as if listening to her mother's words, knowing that she was quiet and indifferent.

She frowned, anyway, she really hated this Mu Qingyan, from head to toe.

Just as she was thinking, Mu Qingyan suddenly raised her eyes and looked at her quietly. She was obviously just looking at her, but Jiang Wan felt cold all over her body, and quickly lowered her head.

Heh, Mu Qingyan withdrew her gaze, she is a dead person, can she bear the gaze of a dead person?

Jiang Xingge came over and grabbed Mu Qingyan, "Auntie, I will take Qingyan away."

"You, can I disagree? Go quickly." Shangguanrou patted her on the head and let them go.

"They have grown up too." Mother Jiang came over and sighed.

Shangguanrou looked at Mu Qingyan's leaving back and sighed softly: "Yes, they have grown up." Many things can't be decided by them.

Mother Jiang looked at her and hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "The matter of Qingyan... what should I do?"

She is the prospective princess, but her mind is not on the prince, and something like that happened a few days ago.

"She doesn't seem to be the same as before recently. There is still one year left, and I hope it can be remedied." Mentioning this Shangguan Rou gave me a headache.

It was written in the imperial decree that Yan'er would marry into the East Palace on her 16th birthday, now there is only one year left, I hope she can wake up and stop thinking about the Second Highness.

Jiang Xingge and the others came to a table alone, and pulled Mu Qingyan to sit down, "Let's sit at this table, so as not to disturb some people."

After finishing speaking, he deliberately glanced at Jiang Wan and Jiang Ye who were not far away.

Jiang Xingsheng looked at the table with only the three of them in black, and said, "So what about the others?"

Only the three of them are the most conspicuous, okay?Although Chen Guo can mix tables with men and women, but just the three of them, do they want to eat a table? ?
