Chapter 85 Marriage
After a while, Shen Qingtang found that these eyes were not only looking at her, but also at Shen Muxin.
[What's the matter? I haven't had any conflicts with Shen Muxin during the time I came back? ]
In the banquet hall, Shen Tianming and Mu Wan sat at the top, and the princes, princesses and ministers sat on both sides.
Seeing Shen Qingtang coming in, Shen Tianming smiled and waved to her: "Qingtang, come in quickly."
"Yes, father." Shen Qingtang nodded and walked to his seat with a smile.
Lu Jiuan followed Shen Qingtang habitually. After walking two steps, he realized that he was no longer the guard of the fourth princess.
The emperor did not forget Lu Jiuan and arranged a seat for him.
Lu Jiuan returned to his seat, and his eyes always looked in the direction of Shen Qingtang involuntarily.
Shen Chengyu turned around and looked at Shen Qingtang who had just sat down, "Qingtang, father just praised you in front of everyone, saying that you did a great job organizing this banquet."
"Really?" Shen Qingtang was surprised.
[No wonder they are all looking at me.]
Shen Qingtang raised her eyes and glanced at Shen Muchin, she looked like a donkey.
[Hahaha, father praised me but not Shen Muchin in such a big scene, she must be mad to death hahaha.]
[Although I don't know if father took the wrong medicine, I am still very satisfied with this situation.]
Shen Chengyu:...
It seems that Qingtang really doesn't like Shen Muchin, are you so happy?
He reminded quietly: "Qingtang, father also said that he would announce a big event later."
"Big event?" Shen Qingtang's eyes were filled with doubt.
[It's just the New Year. I don't remember anything big happening during this period? ]
[Forget it, the plot has been broken down now. Let me hear what the big event is? ]
Shen Tianming cleared his throat and said some words to everyone.
At the end, Shen Tianming's expression suddenly became solemn.
"Not long ago, I received news that Beiming will send a special envoy to our country next month."
After knowing that Fengyin would be destroyed, Shen Tianming planted spies in Beiming and Dongling.
The ministers looked at each other.
Like Shen Tianming, they were frightened by the assassins in the past few months. Now they heard that other countries were going to send people to visit, and they were in turmoil.
"We have always kept our distance from the Beiming Kingdom. What are they trying to do?"
"Although the assassins in these attacks are from Dongling, the Beiming Kingdom doesn't look like a good group."
They only knew that the assassins found in the imperial city were from Dongling, but Shen Tianming learned that the spy in Yun County was from Beiming.
At this juncture, it is definitely not a good thing for the Beiming Kingdom to send someone here.
Shen Qingtang took a sip of the wine glass on the table with a calm expression.
[I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be like this. ]
[The Beiming Kingdom was planning to come here for a marriage alliance. In order to make the marriage go smoothly, the Beiming Kingdom has invested a lot of money this time and prepared a lot of good things. ]
[However, this incident should have happened after the Spring Examination, but now it has happened a few months earlier. 】
Shen Chengyu was secretly listening to Shen Qingtang's thoughts and kept leaning towards her.
Marriage?
The emperor of Beiming Kingdom has only one son. Do they want to live in peace with Fengyin Kingdom?
No, he has to tell his father about this.
[Hehehe, wait until the male protagonist appears, there will be a good show to watch. 】
Shen Chengyu frowned slightly, who is the male protagonist?
Shen Qingtang ate the fruit on the table boredly, just hoping that the banquet would end soon, it was really too boring here.
She looked up at Shen Muxin, but Shen Muxin was not surprised at all.
After a brief discussion of some things, the ministers began to present gifts to the emperor to celebrate the New Year.
"Qingtang, what gift have you prepared?"
Hearing the words of the second emperor, Shen Qingtang's hand holding the fruit paused slightly.
[What gift? I don't take it seriously at all.]
[I'm not prepared at all.]
Shen Qingtang turned to look at him and smiled confidently: "I have prepared a big gift, you will know later."
Shen Chengyu: ...
his sister is getting better and better at pretending.
Shen Chengyu didn't expose her, "Really? I'm a little looking forward to it."
He took out an exquisite box and handed it to Shen Qingtang.
"Qingtang, this is my New Year's gift for you."
Shen Qingtang looked at him strangely and hesitated to take the box from his hand.
[Second brother, are you crazy?]
[In previous years, you all gave gifts to Shen Muchen, how could I have a share.]
Shen Chengyu's heart tightened, thinking carefully that they had indeed ignored Shen Qingtang in the past. They didn't even take her with them during the New Year and other festivals, let alone give her gifts.
"Why are you standing there? Take it quickly. There are good things in it. Don't you really want it?"
Shen Qingtang immediately reached out to take the box upon hearing that.
Her eyebrows curved and she raised a brilliant smile: "Thank you, second brother!"
[Please do more of this kind of good thing in the future. It would be a waste if you don't take it.]
Shen Chengyu's eyes were filled with a hint of doting. Why did he feel that Shen Qingtang was getting cuter?
If Shen Qingtang didn't cheat him in the future, she would be even cuter.
[For the sake of the things you gave me, I will visit you after you die.]
Shen Chengyu:...
Can he not die?
Humph, as long as he stays with Shen Qingtang often, he will be able to find out the traitor!
Thinking of his elder brother who also had a tragic ending, Shen Chengyu quickly reminded him to take out the gift.
"Brother, didn't you prepare a gift for Qingtang as well? Take it out quickly."
Shen Junlin handed a red storage bag to Shen Chengyu, "Give it to her."
He didn't know what to give, so he simply gave her spirit stones.
Shen Qingtang was excited, "Thank you, elder brother!"
[But I didn't prepare any gifts for you two.]
At this time, Shen Muchen walked to the center of the hall holding a wooden box.
She looked at Shen Qingtang with pride. This was a gift she had carefully prepared. Father and Mother would definitely like it!
Shen Qingtang rolled her eyes at her.
[If you want to give it, just give it. Why are you looking at me for what I'm doing? You're crazy.
Shen Muxin opened the box, and a beam of dazzling white light shone out. Inside were two small sculptures carved from top-grade white jade, which looked exactly like Shen Tianming and Mu Wan. "
Father, mother, put this white jade statue in the bedroom, it will prolong your life and improve your mental strength."
"Father and mother work day and night, and I am very worried. With this treasure, I wish you all the best, and I also wish our country will always be prosperous!"
Hearing the words "prolong life", Shen Tianming felt so comfortable in his heart.
"Okay, this gift is good."
Shen Tianming felt like he would not die after receiving this gift.
"Good child, you are thoughtful." Mu Wan smiled softly and asked the palace maid to bring the statue up.
"Thank you for your praise, Father and Mother. As long as you like it, it's fine."
Shen Muxin turned around and looked at Shen Qingtang, and asked innocently, "I wonder what gift my sister has prepared this time?"
