Chapter Thirty-Seven The Storm Rising

In a blink of an eye, it was Mo Zhengxuan's birthday banquet. At Shangguan Youlan's request, Mo Zhengxuan only invited a few of his family members, and there was no extravagance.

The little palace maids and eunuchs had already set up several tables of banquets in the pavilion of the imperial garden and stood aside to wait on them.

Mo Qingyue arrived at the pavilion early, but he just drank wine coldly and turned a blind eye to Mu Ling'er who came in.

Mo Qingchen couldn't see it and greeted Mu Ling'er with a smile, "Sister-in-law Six, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have lost a lot of weight."

"It's been a long time, I won't be in the way." Seeing Mo Qingchen, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Mu Ling'er felt her nose was a little sore, so she tried her best to hold it back.

Upon seeing this, Shangguan Youlan said with a sweet smile: "It seems that the relationship between the eighth brother and the princess is very good. Although the princess is a little thinner, she is more beautiful than before. It is really enviable."

"The imperial concubine is right. The sixth sister-in-law is originally the most beautiful woman in our Ming Yue Kingdom. No one can surpass her." Mo Qingchen glanced at Shangguan Youlan lightly and said unhurriedly.

Mo Qingchen's unabashed words made Shangguan Youlan feel a little embarrassed, and she smiled coquettishly.

"Okay, we finally got together, and we are all family members. We must have a good time drinking today." Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mo Zhengxuan smiled gently to smooth things over.

Shangguan Youlan refused to let her go easily. She smiled and said to Mo Qingyue: "My lord, you haven't seen the princess for a few days. You must miss her very much. Now that you see me, you should sit closer. Otherwise, others will miss you very much."

I thought you guys were having trouble!"

"Just sit like this, it won't bother you." Thinking of Mo Qingyue's appearance that night, Mu Ling'er felt panicked in her heart.

Mo Qingyue didn't even raise his head, and said coldly: "Brother, just sit here, moving around will be very troublesome!"

Mu Ling'er hurriedly lowered her head and said nothing, but she felt that her eyes were burning, as if something was about to burst out.

"Your Majesty, today is your birthday. I wish you longevity and longevity." A sneer flashed in Shangguan Youlan's eyes, she picked up the wine glass and said to Mo Zhengxuan.

Mo Zhengxuan also took the wine glass, with a gentle smile on his lips, "My beloved concubine is interested."

Next, everyone stood up and said blessings, and Mo Zhengxuan responded to them one by one with a smile.

After sitting down, Mo Zhengxuan looked into the distance and said lightly: "I vaguely remember that the last time our family had dinner, I was still the crown prince. Now in the blink of an eye, I have been on the throne for five years. Time flies really fast.

"

Mo Zhengxuan's words were quite melancholy. Everyone didn't know what Mo Zhengxuan was going to say next, and they all looked at each other in confusion.

"Sixth brother, I know that I am not the most suitable person to sit in this seat, and I also know this." Mo Zhengxuan changed the subject and turned to look at Mo Qingyue, who was silent.

Mo Qingyue suddenly raised his head and looked at Mo Zhengxuan intently, with a complicated look in his eyes.

Mu Ling'er and Mo Qingchen also looked at Mo Zhengxuan, with waves of worry in their eyes. Only Shangguan Youlan's eyes showed a faint ripple, but it was fleeting and they pretended to drink casually.

Wine in glass.

"Brother Emperor, you are drunk." Putting down the wine glass in his hand, Mo Qingyue lowered his eyes, covering the emotions in his eyes, and said lightly.

Mo Zhengxuan shook his head lightly, a hint of sadness rising in his elegant brows, "Sixth brother, I also know that this seat is perfect for you..."

"Brother Imperial, you are serious, I..." Mo Qingyue suddenly stood up and knelt down towards Mo Zhengxuan.

Before he could kneel down, Mo Zhengxuan reached out to help him up, looked into his eyes and said: "Sixth brother, I am not being hypocritical, nor do I mean anything else. I just feel that in the past five years, I have been in this position.

The person sitting in the seat is not happy. Many times I just think, if you sit in this seat..."

"Brother Imperial, please don't say any more. I deserve this!" Mo Qingyue finally knelt down and fell deeply on the ground.

Everyone knelt down.

No one understood why Mo Zhengxuan would say such solemn words on his birthday. Why there was always a faint sadness between his brows.

"Your Majesty, today is a happy day, please don't say these words again, okay? I feel distressed when I hear it." Shangguan Youlan stood up first, snuggled next to Mo Zhengxuan, and said softly.

Mu Ling'er looked straight at Mo Qingyue, only to see him slowly stand up and bury his head deeply, unable to see the emotion on his face.

Mo Qingchen was silent for a long time and said cheerfully: "Brother, today is your happy day. Don't talk about those sad things. Let's just drink to our heart's content."

Mo Qingchen's hearty words finally eased the atmosphere in the pavilion. Mu Ling'er also raised a toast and said: "It's rare for us to get together, so we must get drunk this time!"

After finishing speaking, she drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

She forgot that she didn't seem to know how to drink at all. After drinking a glass of wine, two red clouds suddenly appeared on her fair little face, as bright as peach blossoms, which added a lot of beauty to her.

Just when Mu Ling'er was about to pour more wine, she saw Mo Qingyue snatching the wine glass from her hand and said coldly: "With your drinking capacity, do you still plan to drink to embarrass yourself?"

The tone was domineering, but with a trace of imperceptible pity.

Shangguan Youlan's eyes immediately flashed with resentment, then full of ruthlessness, and soon turned into a smile.

"It seems that although the prince has a cold face, he really cares for the princess. Even today, he does not let the princess drink, which is really enviable." Shangguan Youlan poured a full glass of wine and said lightly

Said with a smile.

Mo Qingyue's hand that grabbed the wine glass suddenly paused, and his eyes dropped.

"Princess, the sixth brother cares for the sixth sister-in-law, it is natural. Brother Chen feels that the emperor brother also cares for you. Now you are the favorite in the harem, aren't you satisfied?" Sensing the subtle atmosphere, Mo Qing

Chen said calmly.

A flash of panic flashed in Shangguan Youlan's eyes, and she hurriedly smiled and said: "Eighth brother, please don't misunderstand me, I just expressed my feelings. Besides, the emperor loves me doubly, I am grateful, and I dare not say anything

Other thoughts.”

Mo Zhengxuan's birthday banquet was held in this delicate atmosphere for about an hour.

"Okay, it's getting late today. I have arranged rooms for you all a long time ago. You are not allowed to leave today. Just rest in the palace." Mo Zhengxuan said gently, with the expression on his face as gentle and approachable as ever.

It seems that the person with sad eyes at the beginning was not him.

Mu Ling'er was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, now that I have lived in Lengyue Pavilion a lot, I am used to living in a room alone. I hope your Majesty can make it happen."

"Brother Imperial, that's what I mean. Just arrange two rooms for my brothers." As soon as Mu Ling'er finished speaking, Mo Qingyue spoke.

After hearing this, Mo Zhengxuan looked at Shangguan Youlan and Mo Qingchen, and said calmly: "Okay, then as you wish, I will arrange two rooms for you."

"Okay, okay, I have arranged for the imperial dining room to prepare sobering soup. I will send someone to deliver it when the time comes. You can have a good rest after drinking." Shangguan Youlan smiled, her voice was gentle and approachable, and she held the wooden spirit in her hand.

He held his hand and said: "Princess, if you are not used to living here, you can send someone to me and I will make arrangements."

It seems that she is the most hospitable, gentle and kind host.

"Thank you, Princess, for your consideration." Mu Ling'er withdrew her hand without any trace, affectionately and indifferently. She always had a defensive mentality towards Shangguan Youlan.

Everyone thanked Mo Zhengxuan and Shangguan Youlan and dispersed.

"Your Majesty, the medicine slave you want has been prepared a long time ago. What should we do now?" After everyone dispersed, Jin Yue asked Shangguan Youlan cautiously.

Shangguan Youlan took out a square handkerchief, wiped his hands and said: "I have already asked about the properties of that medicine. As long as you have this Mingji powder on your hands, the toxicity will be aggravated. All you need to do then is

Just sprinkle the medicine on the tray and it will be done without anyone noticing."

"But, what about this Mingji Powder..." Jin Yue was stunned and couldn't think of a way for a while.

Shangguan Youlan smiled coldly and said coldly: "When I held Mu Ling'er's hand just now, I had Mingji Powder on it. Even if it is traced later, this Mingji Powder is just for cleaning dirt.

It’s everywhere in the harem, I’m afraid they won’t be able to find any trace of it.”

The sneer on Shangguan Youlan's face made Jinyue couldn't help but shiver secretly, and asked in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, do you really want to do this..."

"Nonsense, no one is poisonous and no husband, the matter has reached this point. If I don't push it, the prince will not be able to do anything to Mu Ling'er!" Shangguan Youlan's face turned cold, and her voice was without any warmth.

Jin Yue was so frightened that she suddenly trembled, trembling and said: "Yes, yes, yes, empress, I will make arrangements right now."

"Come here, I will tell you what to do..." She waved to Jinyue, and a sneer gradually appeared on Shangguan Youlan's face.

Jinyue hurriedly walked to her side. After hearing this, her face turned pale, but she did not dare to disobey, "Okay, empress, I will make arrangements now."

"Hmph, Mu Ling'er, I want to see if your life will still be so great this time, and if you can escape my arrangement this time, haha!" Looking at Jinyue's hurried away figure, Shangguan You

Lan's face looked sinister and terrifying.

A gust of cold wind blew through the palace, bringing a heart-stopping chill.

Shangguan Youlan sat quietly in the palace, playing with a green cup in her hand, and murmured: "It seems that things have changed, and we can no longer sit still and wait for death."

But Mu Ling'er suddenly drank a large glass of wine and followed the little palace maid to the room that had been arranged long ago.
