Chapter 212 Reminding Brother to Enter the Palace to Thank Him
She couldn't see clearly while sitting in the carriage, and she tried hard to recall, but after a long time she still couldn't remember who the woman was.
Why did she look at Bai Jingchen with such resentful eyes? Recalling Bai Jingchen's story.
Suddenly, she remembered that the woman seemed to be Princess Ronghua Li Jiawan.
I heard that the woman and Bai Jingchen were childhood sweethearts, and in order to get close to Bai Jingchen, she had been befriending Bai Yueli, but in the end, Bai Jingchen decided to marry Gu Anyan.
No wonder her eyes were so vicious, probably because love turned into hate, she wanted to remind Bai Jingchen.
Sometimes women can be quite scary when they go crazy.
This time in Tianqi Country, she was harmed by her junior sister who had a crush on Feng Qingyu, and suffered this unexpected disaster in vain.
So many things have happened recently, and she doesn't want to see anyone around her get into trouble again.
Soon the carriage arrived at the door of the beauty store.
Everything was normal in the store. Xiaoqin, Zisu and Baizhi came over to ask about her well as soon as they saw her.
An Muxi asked about the situation in the store and exchanged a few words with a few people. She felt relieved with Xiaoqin around, and then went to the clinic.
Now the clinic and the drugstore are doing good business. An Muxi noticed that Xiaoyun and Song Lan had developed feelings for each other. She thought the two seemed to be a good match, so she didn't ask any more questions and just let everything take its course.
She went to the bookstore and jewelry store to check, and everything was the same. After her last discussion and planning of joint sales among several stores, the bookstore's sales increased a bit. After the jewelry store launched new models of the twelve zodiac signs, it also attracted many customers.
Seeing this, she felt relieved, and on the way back, she felt a lot more relaxed.
When they arrived at the Ningguo Mansion, she took Bai Jingchen to a side hall.
"Little sister, what's wrong with you? Do you have something to say to me?"
"Brother, on our way out today, I seemed to see Princess Ronghua."
Bai Jingchen's expression was indifferent: "Then what?"
When An Muxi saw him like this, she knew that her elder brother really had no feelings for Li Jiawan at all.
"It seems that her love for you has turned into hatred for you. That look in her eyes is a bit scary. I'm afraid she will do something bad to you."
Bai Jingchen didn't care: "Don't worry, she will soon go to the Xiazhen tribe in the north to form an alliance."
An Muxi was stunned. No wonder Bai Jingchen didn't care.
"So that's how it is. I wonder when she will leave for the marriage?"
Bai Jingchen knew that An Muxi was concerned about her, so he patiently explained: "About ten days later, Prince Xia Zhen is in the imperial capital recently, and he will take her away after discussing state affairs."
An Muxi still reminded him worriedly: "Brother, you must pay attention to your safety recently, and it would be better to send someone to protect my sister-in-law."
Bai Jingchen nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you, little sister."
He smiled and touched An Muxi's head: "Let's go and have dinner with our parents, and you can rest early."
Only then did An Muxi follow Bai Jingchen and have dinner with Duke Ningguo and his wife.
The party was full of joy, and neither An Muxi nor Bai Jingchen mentioned their encounter with Li Jiawan.
Early the next morning, An Muxi was woken up by Wu.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and said softly, "Mom, what happened today?"
Wu was afraid that she wouldn't get enough rest, so she never disturbed her sleep.
"You have to go to the palace to thank the emperor today, so you need to get up and pack your things."
An Muxi then remembered that she had received the imperial decree granting marriage. Li Rui really didn't give her any trouble at all and didn't even let her show up for the imperial decree.
But today is indeed the day to go to the palace to express gratitude, she had completely forgotten about it.
"His Royal Highness Prince Rui is already waiting in the flower hall."
An Muxi woke up at once and quickly stood up. The maids skillfully helped her put on her dress.
After dressing her up, Wu ordered someone to bring her the prepared breakfast, which included a bowl of Tremella and Lily porridge, a few crystal shrimp dumplings, and a few exquisite side dishes.
"Have some breakfast before you go out. King Rui has told you not to rush."
An Muxi was afraid that Li Rui would get impatient waiting for her, so she quickly ate some breakfast and went out.
When I arrived at the front yard, I saw Li Rui standing in the yard talking to Bai Jingchen.
Seeing her come out, Li Rui's narrow eyes showed a doting smile.
"Xi'er, have you had breakfast?"
An Muxi nodded. When she saw him, she thought of what happened between them the night before. Even though she wanted to pretend nothing had happened, her red ears betrayed her.
Li Rui came over and took her hand directly: "Let's go."
He nodded to Bai Jingchen, then pulled An Muxi out of the Ningguo Mansion.
An Muxi didn't expect that she would be dragged out like a little wife.
She felt very complicated. She didn't expect that after revealing the identity of Dark Dragon, she suddenly didn't know how to face Li Rui.
Li Rui saw that she didn't say anything and looked back.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about? Are you still shy?"
An Muxi's face turned red. This guy is really abominable. Isn't he just thicker-skinned than her? He's still showing off.
So she pinched the little flesh on his waist and twisted it hard.
There was nothing unusual on Li Rui's face. He helped her into the carriage and followed her in.
An Muxi thought he would ride a horse and follow her: "Why don't you ride a horse today?"
Before he could finish his words, he was pulled into someone's arms.
"Why do you think I don't ride a horse anymore?"
An Muxi was held horizontally on Li Rui's lap. This was the first time they were so close together in broad daylight.
She didn't resist and leaned gently against his chest.
"Did you miss me?"
Li Rui gently lifted her chin: "All the time."
Then a slightly cold lip blocked An Muxi's words.
This time, the two of them had previous experience and were good at kissing. The temperature in the carriage continued to rise as their breaths blended.
Suddenly An Muxi pushed Li Rui away, feeling a little restless.
"Put me down."
Li Rui smiled bitterly: "Don't move, just let me hold you for a while."
An Muxi really didn't dare to move. Li Rui's physical changes were too obvious, making her feel a little uncomfortable sitting.
Why is this man like this anytime and anywhere? An Muxi didn't know that Li Rui would only be so emotional when facing her.
"When we meet His Majesty later, do you think I need to say anything?" She hurriedly tried to divert his attention.
"No, you don't have to say anything."
An Muxi was speechless. That was the Emperor of Tiansheng, her future father-in-law, so she still had to maintain a good relationship with him.
"You don't seem to be very close to His Majesty?"
Li Rui thought for a moment and said, "A lot of things happened before. Maybe there was a little misunderstanding. It's much better now."
An Muxi felt that Emperor Tiansheng was relatively tolerant of Li Rui, although he did not appear to care much about him and did not allow him to participate too much in state affairs.
But An Muxi felt that Li Rui just had a grudge against Emperor Tiansheng and was unwilling to accept his arrangements.
However, judging from the fact that Li Rui was named General Dingguo this time, the ice between father and son seems to have been broken.
An Muxi still hopes that Li Rui can have a more harmonious relationship with Emperor Tiansheng. After all, fatherly love cannot be replaced easily.
She felt sorry for his childhood experiences and hoped that in the future she could slowly heal the old illnesses in his heart.
Finally arriving at the palace, Li Rui's carriage drove straight in.
They didn't stop until they reached a place where the carriage couldn't enter. This place was very close to the imperial study.
Li Rui got off the carriage and helped An Muxi get off the carriage as well.
The two of them walked hand in hand towards the imperial study.
At this time, several people came out of the imperial study. They were tall and strong, wearing strange clothes, including fur. The leader was particularly tall.
He was even half a head taller than Li Rui. An Muxi just raised her head and looked up at that man.
Three words came to my mind: Tatar!
