Chapter 417: Expressing Feelings
Su Yue waited in the mansion for nearly a day before Shangguan Nanxing hurried back. As soon as he entered the room, he saw dinner still on the table, but no one had touched it.
Su Yue sat at the table, looking at the food that was getting cold, not knowing what she was thinking.
"What are you thinking about? Have you had dinner yet?" Shangguan Nanxing stepped forward, gently put his arms around Su Yue's waist, and asked gently.
Seeing this, the maids serving on the side tactfully walked out one by one.
"I'm not thinking about anything. Why did you come back so late? I waited for you for a long time, but you didn't come back, so I ate a little. These are waiting for you to come back."
Su Yue felt the familiar embrace, smiled slightly, turned her head to look into Shangguan Nanxing's eyes, and asked softly.
"After staying at Shura Gate for a while, I came back just in time to see my father summon me to the palace. I didn't have time to tell you."
Shangguan Nanxing explained softly, then let go of Su Yue and sat next to her.
"Is there anything that the emperor wants you to do?" Seeing Shangguan Nanxing sitting down, Su Yue naturally picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and put it into Shangguan Nanxing's bowl.
"Yuer, I'm telling you, don't be angry." When Shangguan Nanxing heard Su Yue ask this, he turned around, held Su Yue's hand, his eyes full of caution.
"Just say it. I'm not that angry." Seeing Shangguan Nanxing being so cautious, Su Yue couldn't help but smile and answered nonchalantly.
"It's like this. My father told me that Princess Xi from the Mo Kingdom is coming to Dongyou, and he plans to let Princess Xi stay with us temporarily."
After Shangguan Nanxing finished speaking, he looked at Su Yue nervously, fearing that Su Yue would get angry after hearing this.
"Is this what father meant?" Su Yue frowned slightly and asked back when she heard Shangguan Nanxing say this.
Yun Ye had already told her about Princess Xi's visit to Dongyou, so this was not surprising. However, she was still wondering why Princess Xi wanted to stay in the Prince's Mansion temporarily.
Although Princess Xi came to Dongyou most likely for Nanxing, the emperor's actions should not be so obvious.
You know, even if the fourth prince of the Mo Kingdom was engaged to Fu Ping, the emperor had not arranged for Mo Jingxuan to live in the princess's mansion.
"No, Father said that this was Mo Jingxuan's suggestion."
Shangguan Nanxing felt relieved when he saw that Su Yue's expression did not fluctuate much, so he answered Su Yue's questions honestly.
"This Mo Jingxuan, I really don't know what the hell he is up to." Su Yue heard Shangguan Nanxing say this, and thought of Bai Tian Yunye's words, and muttered in confusion.
"Yuer, you know what it means that Princess Xi lives in the Prince's Mansion, right?" Shangguan Nanxing saw that Su Yue had not responded much, so he asked again.
"Of course I know that, but I believe you." Su Yue looked into Shangguan Nanxing's cautious eyes and chuckled.
"It's like this, Yue'er. Father told me that he felt that the Fourth Prince seemed to be planning something, and he was going to marry Fuping soon, so Father didn't want anything to go wrong during this period.
Moreover, Princess Xi is extremely favored by the Emperor of Mo State, and she came here this time aiming for the position of the Crown Prince's concubine. In order not to alert the enemy and to appease the Mo State, the emperor agreed to Mo Jingxuan's proposal.
But my father told me that if I find out what Mo Jingxuan is planning, he won’t force me. ”
Shangguan Nanxing told Su Yue all that the emperor said during the day and what he planned. In his heart, he didn't want to hide it from Yue'er. Misunderstanding started with concealment.
"Since you said so, why should I be angry? I, Su Yue, am not such a petty person. Besides, if Princess Xi is really favored by the Emperor of Mo Country, then if she doesn't like you, the Emperor of Mo Country probably can't force her to do so."
After listening to Shangguan Nanxing's words, Su Yue was moved by Shangguan Nanxing's honesty from beginning to end. Why would she, Su Yue, be jealous for no reason when he treated her so sincerely without any concealment?
So she looked at Shangguan Nanxing and expressed her thoughts very seriously.
"How could it be that your husband is so unattractive in your eyes? You actually think that Princess Naxi doesn't like me?"
When Shangguan Nanxing heard Su Yue's sincere words, he naturally knew that Su Yue was not pretending to be indifferent, so he deliberately protested with dissatisfaction.
"Okay, okay, it's you who look down on Princess Xi, okay? Let's eat quickly, the food is almost cold."
When Su Yue heard Shangguan Nanxing's childish angry words, she smiled and put some more food in his bowl.
"That's more like it. After all, I only have eyes for Yue Er."
After Shangguan Nanxing finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and put the food that Su Yue had picked up into his mouth.
"You, hurry up and eat." As soon as Shangguan Nanxing finished speaking, Su Yue looked at him shyly and angrily.
"No more eating. I have important things to do." Shangguan Nanxing met Su Yue's gaze, put down his bowl and chopsticks, picked up Su Yue horizontally, and walked into the room.
