Chapter 52 Shangguan Sui’s face hurts from laughing
"Go to Huaishu Lane in the capital right now and see if the number one scholar is there."
Watching the maid's leaving figure, Shangguan Li took out the letter that Chen Qingyun had written to her before.
The handwriting is neat and the words are full of emotion.
She used to like it very much.
But at this moment, she couldn't help but think of that childish voice.
[Those letters were all written next to his mistress.]
Shangguan Li immediately felt very disgusted.
Just throw all these letters into the incense burner.
The eldest prince’s mansion, study.
Shangguan Jue finished reading the last file, looked at the flickering candle beside him, and rubbed his eyes.
He stood up from his desk and prepared to go back to his bedroom to sleep.
Just at this moment, Tang Xing pushed the door open.
He bowed and said, "Your Highness, the Queen just sent a message saying that there will be a flower viewing banquet in Yu Garden tomorrow. Please be sure to go."
Shangguan Juejian's brows were furrowed, and his handsome face with clear contours looked very profound under the candlelight.
"Flower viewing party?"
Tang Xing nodded and said slowly, "I heard that the Queen has invited all the noble ladies in the capital."
Shangguan Jue's brows furrowed even deeper, and his tone became cold.
"My mother is preparing to choose a wife for me."
He was about to say no.
Tang Xing interrupted at this time, "Maybe... Miss Feng will go back too."
"Her father is a minister, so of course she is a noble lady."
Shangguan Jue's brows relaxed immediately upon hearing this, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Tang Xing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The task assigned by the Empress has finally been completed.
He has investigated Miss Feng for His Highness.
Hey, he knows their relationship very well.
The next day.
Shangguan Sui was woken up in a daze by the Concubine Chen.
She sat at the table drinking sweet porridge, and her upper and lower eyelids couldn't help but keep fighting.
Qing Ping then reported, "Your Majesty, the Queen has just sent someone to tell you that you must come to today's flower viewing banquet."
Concubine Chen chuckled, took a sip of tea, and said lightly.
"What kind of flower viewing banquet is this? It's just an excuse to choose a wife for the eldest prince."
"But it's normal. The eldest prince has already come of age, but he doesn't even have a concubine. No wonder the queen is worried."
【Choose a queen for Big Brother! 】
Shangguan Sui became alert immediately after receiving this important information.
[There will definitely be a lot of pretty ladies there! I want to go! I want to go! ]
Shangguan Sui immediately threw himself into the arms of Concubine Chen and started to act coquettishly.
"Mother, please let me go! Please let me go, please let me go!"
"You can go any day you are in school, but if you miss the flower viewing party today, you will never be able to attend it again!"
Princess Chen: ...
There is some truth in what you said, but I always feel like something is wrong.
Shangguan Sui continued to hum: "Big brother is so good to me and gave me so many Dongzhu, how can I not care about his life~"
"What if he accidentally chooses a woman who beats him? What if he accidentally chooses a woman who..."
The concubine Chen felt pain in her ears and immediately interrupted her.
"Okay, okay, can't I take you there?"
Shangguan Sui jumped up immediately!
[Yeah! Yeah! Mom is the best mom! ]
The Concubine Chen looked at her with doting.
He turned around and told Qingping, "Go to the Shangshufang and ask for another day off for Sui Sui."
The Concubine Chen brought Shangguan Sui and soon arrived at Yu Garden.
The Yu Garden is particularly lively today, and almost all the noble ladies in the capital have gathered here.
As soon as I walked in, I felt a fragrant breeze blowing on my face, and I could hear a woman's coquettish and teasing voice.
Shangguan Sui was like a fish that entered a pond and plunged into a pile of beauties.
Sometimes he held the hand of this girl, and sometimes that girl rubbed his face.
Gradually I got lost in the praises of “The Fifth Princess is so adorable”.
Shangguan Sui's face hurt from laughing, but he just felt extremely happy.
[Hehehe, what could be more fun than playing with a pretty sister~]
Shangguan Sui soon toured the entire Yu Garden.
I basically met every sister.
She happily prepared to go back to look for her mother, but found Shangguan Jue standing alone under the plum tree.
[Huh? Why is my brother standing here alone? Is he freezing?]
Shangguan Sui stepped forward with his calves, bouncing towards Shangguan Jue.
He called out in a baby voice: "Big Brother!"
Shangguan Jue turned around and when he saw her, a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He opened his arms and caught Shangguan Sui who was running towards him.
He picked up Shangguan Sui and pinched her chubby face.
"Why did Sui Sui come here today?"
Shangguan Sui smiled so much that his eyes curved and his cheeks were slightly wrinkled.
"I heard that many beautiful ladies came to Yu Garden today, so of course I can't miss it~"
"By the way, brother, why are you standing here alone?"
Shangguan Jue frowned slightly when he heard this.
The reason why I am alone is because...
He didn't find Feng Xici.
She didn't come to the flower viewing party today...
Without her, the whole flower viewing party immediately became boring.
Shangguan Jue opened his mouth and wanted to speak.
Was interrupted by a sudden sound.
"Your Highness, so you are here. The Queen is looking for you."
Shangguan Jue turned to look at the maid, his voice flat.
"knew."
Then he lowered his eyes to look at Shangguan Sui and asked softly, "Fifth sister, I'm going to see the queen mother. Do you want to go with me?"
Shangguan Sui tilted his head and thought about it.
Nodding vigorously: "Okay~"
Shangguan Jue carried Shangguan Sui in his arms and soon arrived at the pavilion where the empress was.
He leaned over and put Shangguan Sui on the ground.
They both bowed at the same time.
"Greetings to the Queen Mother."
"Greetings to the Empress Dowager."
The queen looked at Shangguan Sui, curled up the corners of her mouth and chuckled.
"It's great that the Fifth Princess is here today. Children need to run around and stroll around more."
Then her eyes fell on Shangguan Jue.
There was some dissatisfaction in the voice, but the tone was not severe.
"You kid, not long after the flower viewing party started, you disappeared somewhere."
Shangguan Jue bowed.
"I know I was wrong."
Shangguan Sui couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.
[I know I was wrong, but I will do it again next time. ]
Shangguan Jue curled his lips upon hearing this.
The fifth sister understands him quite well.
The queen quickly avoided the topic and looked to the side.
"Qichun, come quickly and meet the eldest prince."
As soon as she finished speaking, a girl in a goose-yellow silk skirt approached and bowed to Shangguan Jue.
"Your Highness, I, Queen Qichun, have met you."
The queen had a smile on her face.
"Qichun is your aunt's daughter. You should call her your cousin."
Shangguan Jue glanced at her and turned his head.
The voice was cold: "Hello, cousin."
【Hahahahahaha what an emotionless cousin! 】
[I even name the dishes with more emotion than this hahaha! ]
Shangguan Sui felt very uncomfortable trying to hold back his laughter.
Wang Qichun and the Queen's faces turned extremely ugly at that moment.
But the queen quickly adjusted herself and put a smile on her face again.
Then they continued talking and laughing.
On the other side, the Hongning Palace.
Shangguan Li clutched her sleeves nervously.
Soon, the maid Huamei pushed the door open and walked in.
His face was filled with panic and disbelief.
Shangguan Li's anxious heart immediately sank to the bottom.
Huamei bowed and reported in a low voice.
"I waited outside Huaishu Lane all night, and sure enough, I saw the number one scholar walking out of a courtyard this morning, holding a woman in his arms..."
