Chapter 31 Half God, Half Demon
Princess Xiangyang is the eldest daughter of the first emperor.

His Majesty's elder sister.

For her birthday banquet, most of the dignitaries in the entire Yujing City will come to congratulate her.

Qi Mingyue dressed up early in the morning and followed Mrs. Zheng to the Princess's mansion for a banquet.

I don't know if it's because she went out today that her complexion looks much better.

This made Mrs. Zheng feel a little bit better, and when she met Xu Manjin who was waiting for them outside the princess's mansion, she became a little bit more loving.

Xu Manjin has kept a filial piety at home these past few years and can't go out, so this is the first time he saw Qi Mingyue, the biological sister that Qi Rongxuan said after learning about the true and false daughter.

She is indeed a beauty that I still feel sorry for.

Xu Manjin wasn't particularly enthusiastic, but just greeted her generously and handed her a greeting gift,

"It's the first time I see my sister. This is a sachet I embroidered with my own hands. I hope my sister won't dislike her."

"Sister Xu is too polite. I often hear my elder brother mention my sister. I look forward to my sister marrying in every day. Someone can talk to me." Qi Mingyue looked familiar, and hugged Xu Manjin affectionately. arm, as if he really liked this future sister-in-law.

Xu Manjin was a little uncomfortable, but she didn't expect Qi Mingyue to be so enthusiastic.

She only heard Qi Rongxuan say that she was weak and sickly, so she thought she would be a delicate little girl.

Just thinking of Qi Wan made her feel a little darker.

Qi Wan's death was a sensation back then, and there were all kinds of rumors, some said that the Qi family forced her to death, some said that the daughter recovered by the Qi family was actually a heart-eating fairy who ate Qi Wan's heart, and It is said that Qi offended His Majesty at the banquet in the Wan Palace and jumped from the Yunguangtai, there are different opinions.She asked Qi Rongxuan many times, but Qi Rongxuan avoided talking about it.

Xu Manjin restrained the emotions in her heart, pretended to be nonchalant, smiled generously and brightly, and followed Mrs. Zheng into the eldest princess's mansion.

Qi Mingyue held Xu Manjin's arm all the way, talking to her tenderly, and Xu Manjin responded seriously, neither perfunctory nor overly enthusiastic.

The corners of Qi Mingyue's lips drooped, then raised again.

It's really disgusting, she is so enthusiastic to please her, but she doesn't know what's good and what's wrong.

A group of people were led by the mother of the princess's mansion to meet the princess of Xiangyang. Surprisingly, the princess of Xiangyang, who was originally a close friend with Mrs. Zheng, was not very enthusiastic about Mrs. Zheng, so she nodded casually. Just let people sit down, without even taking a look at Mrs. Zheng's gift.

Mrs. Zheng was a little embarrassed to be treated so coldly, but she didn't say anything, she took Qi Mingyue and sat down with Xu Manjin.

No matter how stupid Qi Mingyue was, she could tell that Princess Xiangyang didn't like them.

She just remembered that in recent years, the two families have rarely moved around. Although she followed Mrs. Zheng and met the Princess Xiangyang at other banquets, she did not say hello.

She couldn't help tugging at Mrs. Zheng's sleeve, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Mother, is the princess not close to our family? She doesn't seem to like me very much..."

She noticed that the eldest princess seemed a little disgusted when she glanced at her just now.

Madam Zheng's complexion changed, and she raised her finger and nodded her head: "Don't think about it, there are many people and things are busy today, and you will stay with your sister Xu later, don't wander around, understand?"

Qi Mingyue responded obediently: "I understand, don't worry, mother."

While the two were talking, Lian Jinchen and several cousins ​​from the clan also came in to give gifts to the eldest princess. When Qi Mingyue saw Lian Jinchen, his eyes brightened at first, and then dimmed again.

When Lian Jinchen looked at her, her eyes were red with red eyes.

At this moment, a notification came from outside,

"The imperial concubine is here!"

Qi Mingyue's face turned pale subconsciously, and she accidentally touched the wine glass in her hand, spilling the wine all over her skirt.

"what happened?"

Mrs. Zheng and Xu Manjin, who were sitting next to her, both noticed, and immediately looked at her with concern.

Qi Mingyue grabbed Mrs. Zheng's wrist, her heart was beating violently.

Eye circles are redder.

She didn't understand, why did Qing Qiao want to linger?

Ever since the appearance of Qingtuo, her life has become a mess, but why can't she be avoided anywhere?
Qi Mingyue's aggrieved eyes were wet.

"What's the matter, Yue'er? Are you feeling unwell? Mother asked someone to take you to rest and take you home later, okay?" Mrs. Zheng hurriedly grabbed her hand and coaxed her softly.

Xu Manjin also knew that Qi Rongxuan's sister was not in good health, so she also said, "Yes, if my sister is not feeling well, I will accompany you to rest for a while, just in time to change clothes."

The glass of wine that Qi Mingyue just overturned poured directly on her skirt. She was wearing an orange-yellow skirt with bright yellow veil layered on top of it. Now it was wet a lot, which was very conspicuous.

"What Jinniang said is, Yue'er, can you go change with Jinniang first?" Mrs. Zheng also saw her skirt, and ordered the maid to fetch the spare clothes from the carriage.

Qi Mingyue didn't want Mrs. Zheng to see Qingkuo, but she also knew that it was inevitable, so she could only nod her head, and said gratefully to Xu Manjin, "Sister Xu, please."

"No trouble." Xu Manjin caringly helped her up, and the two of them followed the maid to the side door.

When he was about to reach the door, he heard a slight vibration coming from the main door, and many people in the hall were breathing lightly.

Xu Manjin glanced in the direction of the door curiously, and saw a tall girl entering the door. She didn't see her face clearly, but she saw clearly the majestic white tiger that followed her in.

She was startled, fearing that Qi Mingyue would be frightened, she hurriedly supported Qi Mingyue to go out, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty really dotes on this princess and princess, even going out to perish!"

Thinking of the white tiger, Qi Mingyue's face turned pale again. After the two of them left the door, she couldn't help asking, "Has Elder Sister Xu seen His Majesty's pet?"

Xu Manjin nodded: "I haven't gone out at home in the past few years, but I have seen it less often. I have seen it a few times in the past few years. Once, a foreign envoy came to Beijing and did not follow the rules. Annihilation directly tore up the dozens of envoys who made trouble in the street, it was really shredded, the street was full of blood..."

Xu Manjin took a deep breath, as if recalling something terrible, her voice trembled slightly, "I was in a treasure shop on the street, and the threshold was covered with blood."

As soon as she finished speaking, seeing Qi Mingyue's face turned pale, she hurriedly comforted her and said: "This is all in the past. These years, not only perish, even His Majesty, seems to have a lot better temper. Seven or eight years ago , that is..."

As soon as Xu Manjin uttered his words, he quickly stopped the topic, "I told you what to do, it's all in the past, don't be afraid, this is the eldest princess's mansion, your majesty still respects this eldest sister, won't Something terrible happened."

She herself felt that these words were false, how could His Majesty be a person who would respect others?She hadn't finished her sentence just now. After Death tore those envoys, His Majesty felt that the other party was too annoying, so he directly took people to chop off all the young and middle-aged men of that tribe, and burned them on the spot.

That is His Majesty's bloody method. Xiliang has been so stable since he took the throne for more than 20 years.

So she doesn't know the impression of His Majesty in Xiliang as a whole, but for the people of Yujing, His Majesty is a respected and feared existence. Some people privately say that His Majesty is the reincarnation of the son of a god and demon, half a god Half magic.

Xu Manjin was quite curious about what a loner and doted woman like him would be like.

Isn't that princess and princess particularly beautiful?

It's a pity I didn't see it.

I don't know if I can see it in a while.

Xu Manjin's mind wandered a bit, and he didn't notice the dark light in Qi Mingyue's eyes for a moment.

In the banquet hall, Lian Jinchen noticed that Qi Mingyue had left, and heaved a sigh of relief.

He didn't know why, but he didn't want Qi Mingyue and Qing Kuo to appear at the same time.

After the male guest delivered the congratulatory gift, he was supposed to leave, but with the announcement, his cousins ​​all stopped together, and all looked towards the door, curious to let His Majesty's pet accompany him. What does your favorite concubine look like?

Until Qing Kuo walked in under the gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes, the whole banquet hall could suddenly hear the sound of a needle falling quietly.

"Night--"

Madam Zheng stood up in a gaffe, and turned over the low table in front of her.

Drinks and snacks were scattered all over the floor.

Rolling down at the feet of the green tree.
