Chapter 804 Li Mu, a lover?
Chapter 804 Li Mu, a lover?
In the next two days, Li Mu did not go to see Meng Siyu again.
She's just a woman, Li Mu is not that eager to take the initiative.
Li Mu would go to see his "Girl Caiwei" every night, and the progress of her cultivation seemed to be very good.
She just didn't want Li Mu to accompany her, saying that it would be embarrassing for Jianjia to see her.
Li Mu also went to find Yuanbao. The girl was quite resentful and hinted that her mistress wanted Li Mu to stay overnight.
Li Mu disagreed, not because he was being hypocritical, but because he understood the way of life in this world better.
It would be very troublesome for girls from these wealthy families to lose their virginity before marriage.
Li Mu is not afraid of trouble, but Liu Mingyan may have some reservations.
She is now Li Mu's "cash cow", so she still needs to be provided for a certain amount.
Li Mu had dinner with them and taught them some advanced "capital" knowledge.
But perhaps it was too advanced, and Liu Mingyan didn't like to hear it.
Instead, he became very interested in the mathematics that Li Mu casually mentioned when he scanned the account book.
As a result, the originally beautiful and ambiguous night turned into a junior high school math cram school.
Qiuju's progress is not very good, and she is completely in the dark about the art of meditation.
But when Li Mu proposed to replace someone, the little girl refused to agree.
After half an hour of talking, Li Mu finally gave up his plan to change players.
Li Mu likes this girl more and more. She is lively, sensible and not clingy.
After finishing the job, he just patted Li Mu on the butt and told him to get out.
...
Soon it was the day for the Queen's banquet.
It was announced to the outside world that it was just a tea party.
The wives of the powerful men in the capital all loved tea parties, but this was the first time for the Queen.
Li Mu got up very early. Last night was a rare time for him to go back to his own yard to rest.
Xiao Zhao was a bit clingy, but Li Mu still stayed with her until the last step before stopping.
The little girl’s eighteenth birthday will be soon. We have endured for so long, there is no reason to give up halfway.
Xiao Zhao was obviously not very happy. After teasing her again and again without any results, she just hummed and fell asleep.
In front of the dressing table, the little girl was combing Li Mu's hair, but her little mouth was pouted high, making Li Mu want to tease her uncontrollably.
"Who has offended our Xiao Zhao? Tell the Master, and he will help Xiao Zhao vent his anger."
"Xiao Zhao doesn't dare. How can Xiao Zhao be angry?"
Xiao Zhao raised her chin and tried not to look at Li Mu, but the words she said were sourer than lemons.
Li Mu laughed. The little girl's temper got worse. In the past, she never dared to show displeasure to Li Mu.
However, Li Mu was not angry, but rather felt relieved.
She feels more confident now that she has the support of her sister's family.
Li Mu stretched out his hand and pinched the little girl's face, and joked,
"Okay, I know how to make a sarcastic remark, young master."
Xiao Zhao paused in combing her hair, and seemed to realize her behavior. Her face turned pale and she quickly said,
"No, no, sir, Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhao is not..."
"Okay, the young master likes you like this."
Li Mu held Xiao Zhao's face and kneaded it gently twice. Seeing the small mouth that was squeezed and deformed, he lowered his head and kissed it.
"Sir, it's time to set off... cough cough cough."
Outside the house, Xia He just entered the house and saw the two people being intimate. She paused, turned around and walked out, closing the door behind her.
"Mr. Gongzi."
Xiao Zhao reached out and held down Li Mu's hand that had quietly slipped into her dress, panting and saying,
"You can't be late for the Queen's tea party."
"I'm used to it."
Li Mu smiled awkwardly, quickly let go of Xiao Zhao, turned around and walked out the door.
...
Many people had gathered in the front hall at this time.
Yin Huanping, Cang Zhi, Mo Liuying, and Li Linger who had not been seen for many days.
As the eldest princess of the Xing Dynasty, Yin Huanping was naturally invited.
Li Ling'er, the little princess of Prince Yan's Mansion, is no exception.
The invitation from Mo Liuying was only received yesterday. The Queen seemed to have just learned that the future great man of the Mo family stayed in the capital, so she specially asked someone to send it.
Xia He and Dong Mei accompanied them, one took care of Yin Huanping and the other was assigned to Mo Liuying.
Li Ling'er brought Xu Youzhi along, and it was said that she had originally intended to bring Ying Yu along, but it seemed that Xu Youzhi had volunteered, and Ying Yu happened to not like such occasions.
As for Li Mu, he naturally brought his Xiao Zhao with him.
The fleet of cars at Linglong Waterside is nothing short of luxurious.
However, with Yin Huanping's carriage in front, there would be no so-called overstepping of boundaries.
...
Royal palace, back garden.
"Zhou."
"Little girl."
"Greetings to the Queen, and to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Several wives of officials entered the pavilion to pay their respects to the queen.
"No need to be polite, no need to be so formal today, Madam Zhou, Miss Zhou, just do as you please."
The queen had a kind smile on her face.
Sitting next to him were the two sisters Qin Ling and Qin Duan'er.
Qin Duan'er was obviously dressed up today. She was wearing a floor-length white dress with gold edges, which made her originally youthful face look more noble.
But the smile on his face didn't look genuine.
Today the queen will marry her to that man.
No matter how doting she appears on a daily basis, in the end, she is nothing more than a tool that can be given away at will.
At this time, Nanny Xian walked quickly to the Queen's side and whispered in a low voice,
"Master, Master Li has arrived."
After saying this, the Queen's smile became even brighter. She stood up and walked out of the pavilion.
"Here he is. I haven't seen him for many days. I want to go and greet him in person."
Zhao Chuyi also forced a smile on her face, but that smile was more of uneasiness and bitterness.
Beside her, Shanshan gently tugged at her sleeve, indicating that the queen was about to walk away.
Zhao Chuyi hurried to catch up. Although Li Mu might still ignore her, she didn't want to miss any chance to meet Li Mu.
Shanshan followed closely.
She returned to the palace early in the morning.
There was no invitation, and Li Mu had no intention of taking her along, so she had no choice but to come along on her own.
After all, she is still a clan relative.
She was also the princess' personal maid and bodyguard, so no one could find a good gift for her when she came to the tea party.
When everyone saw that the Queen had to come in person to greet the person, they felt it was inappropriate to just sit there, and hurriedly followed behind, wanting to see who this "big shot" was.
In front of the Imperial Garden Arch.
When Li Mu and his companions saw the crowd coming, they subconsciously stopped.
Everyone also saw Li Mu and his companions, but their eyes first fell on Yin Huanping.
She was wearing a bright red palace dress today, and her innate nobility made it difficult to ignore her presence.
"Who is that?"
"The princess who was married off to a foreign country, the one the queen personally welcomed was her?"
"Why should she?"
Several wives of officials who were lagging behind were discussing in low voices, and in private, no one called Yin Huanping by her title.
Most people prefer to call her "the princess married for peace", and the irony is obvious.
She was originally a princess temporarily canonized by Emperor Hongwen for the purpose of marriage to a foreign prince. I don't know what gives her the confidence to act so arrogantly.
"Linglong has met the Queen."
When Yin Huanping saw the queen coming, she bowed slightly and saluted.
Although she had been in the palace for nearly ten years, she had only had very few dealings with the queen.
The other girls behind him followed suit and bowed to greet him.
Li Mu was about to salute when someone grabbed his wrist. Then he heard the queen say enthusiastically,
"You, boy, it's fine if you're late, but you're not willing to take a few more steps. You insist that I come to the door to greet you?"
"Come on, follow me to the pavilion to talk."
Li Mu was stunned, and that reassuring and familiar feeling came to his heart again.
In front of everyone's stunned eyes, he immediately took the Queen's arm and said with concern,
"Madam, do you have a poor appetite when you come in? You look thinner."
The spectators immediately gasped.
Who is this person? He took advantage of the emperor's absence to be so intimate with the queen in public.
Don’t want your head anymore?
Could it be that he is the queen’s lover?
