After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

After seeing Zhao Ying wearing it, Zhao Yao could only continue to lie to herself that Zhao Ying had coerced her into snatching it.

What's worse, she lied to herself that Shangguan Shu wanted to use the huge South Pearl to drown Zhao Ying, and he must hate her deeply!

In fact, let alone robbing, Zhao Ying didn't even know that there were South Pearls in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion beforehand.

Shangguan Shu gave it to me without hesitation.

When Shangguan Shu heard about Princess Side wearing the Dongzhu, he thought to himself that even though I didn't love her, I was just lying to her blah blah blah... But how could Zhao Ying be outdone in such a matter?

He is not a stingy husband who treats his wife harshly!

When he went to Qianyuan to "sleep with the emperor" at night, he happily brought a box of South Pearls with him.

When Shangguan Shu saw Zhao Ying's happy smile, he secretly said in his heart, "Hmph woman, you only deserve my beads, not my heart!"

As everyone came closer, Princess Xian had to open Zhao Ying's gift and show it to everyone.

The result was a white jade Guanyin, which is of excellent quality and has good meaning.

The wise king curled his lips imperceptibly, thinking that Cheng Qianguo was really stupid and had a lot of money.

When he ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to confiscate Cheng Qian’s mansion and fill the national treasury!

Princess Xian exchanged some greetings and the banquet began.

The guests are seated.

Zhao Ying was naturally sitting at the same table with the virtuous prince and his wife, as well as Shangguan Shu. Shangguan Qingyue was between Zhao Ying and Shangguan Shu, and the family of three was inexplicably reunited.

The virtuous king was unaware of the conflict between Shangguan Shu and Shangguan Zhu, and he also brought Shangguan Zhu and Shen to the main table.

There are many smart people at the table, and of course they won’t show anything in such an occasion.

So the meal was quite harmonious.

The virtuous king said to Zhao Ying, "Cheng Qian, try your sister-in-law's cooking. She spent a whole day preparing this table of food to thank you for the prescription."

Zhao Ying was flattered. He looked at Princess Xian and said modestly, "What are you talking about, my brother? It is a blessing for my sister-in-law to be pregnant. My prescription is just an ordinary introduction..."

The virtuous king and his wife were very pleased to hear this.

The virtuous princess took the opportunity to apologize to Zhao Ying, saying that it was nothing more than the incident in Chongqing Palace that day. Zhao Ying only said sadly that she did not expect Zhao Yao to be like this. My brother and sister-in-law do not need to worry. I know you did not mean it...

The three of them spoke nice words.

Shangguan Shu was so focused on feeding the baby that he didn't eat much. He was only busy feeding Shangguan Qingyue, and the little guy's mouth was bulging with food.

Everyone was a little surprised when they saw the scene in front of them. In every family, the woman was in charge of the household and the man was in charge of the outside affairs. But how come when it came to Princess Chengqian, Princess Chengqian was chatting with someone while the former Prince Consort was feeding the baby...

The female members of the family were surprised and envious. In the past, they only thought that Princess Chengqian was forcing the Prince of Zhenguo to take advantage of her, but judging from the various rumors and the current situation, it seems that the Prince of Zhenguo has already fallen deeply in love with Princess Chengqian.

In the past, they thought that the Prince of Zhenguo favored Princess Chengqian mostly for the sake of the Emperor. Now, when they think about it, they suddenly feel happy.

Finally, Shangguan Qingyue raised his hand and said, "Daddy, I'm full!"

Shangguan Shu put down his chopsticks and wiped Shangguan Qingyue's mouth and hands. When they were done, Shangguan Qingyue leaned close to Shangguan Shu's ear and whispered, "Daddy, I'll tell you a secret!"

As Shangguan Qingyue spoke, his eyes unconsciously fell on the virtuous princess opposite him.

"Go ahead, Daddy is listening!"

There was so much noise all around that no one paid attention to the whispers between the father and daughter.

"I'm telling you, Auntie Xian Wangfei wants to harm my mother, so my mother said today's banquet will be called... Turtle Banquet..."

Shangguan Shu: ? ?

"Dad, do you know about the Turtle Banquet? It's when a man named Turtle invites people to dinner, and then... and then..."

The little guy frowned, [Who did you invite? Oops, why can't I remember? ]

Shangguan Shu raised his eyebrows, "Liu Bang..."

What about the turtle? If the King of Western Chu heard this, he would swim up the Wu River!

"Yes, yes, yes! It's Liu Bang! And then..."

The little guy told Shangguan Shu the story of the "Turtle Banquet" in detail. Shangguan Shu listened patiently until the end, when the little guy said seriously, "Daddy, so Yue'er came here to protect mommy!"

"Do you want to protect mother with me?"

Shangguan Shu smiled, rubbed the little guy's head, and said, "What a coincidence, Daddy is here to protect your mother too!"

The little girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she remained silent, "Hmm? Daddy won't give up on my mother, right?"

[What a mistake. I shouldn't have invited him.]

[I finally managed to snatch my mother away, I must not give my father a chance to take advantage of me! ]

Shangguan Shu: ...

Shangguan Shu looked at his daughter's mischievous eyes, smiled helplessly, and reassured the little girl, "Don't worry, Yue'er, when we save your mother, all the credit will be yours, and daddy won't compete with you."

"Really?" Shangguan Qingyue still didn't quite believe it.

Shangguan Shu stretched out his hand and said, "Let's high-five to swear!"

Shangguan Qingyue smiled when he saw this, stretched out his chubby little paws, and slapped his father's big palm hard.

Shangguan Shu curled his lips meaningfully.

Shangguan Qingyue then wanted to discuss countermeasures with Shangguan Shu, but Shangguan Shu just told her not to worry, he had arranged everything, and Shangguan Qingyue felt relieved.

Here, Princess Xian felt that it was about time, so she wanted to invite Zhao Ying into the house to chat. Zhao Ying heard Shangguan Qingyue's thoughts and knew Princess Xian's trick, so she naturally couldn't be alone with her.

Princess Xian tried every trick she could, but Zhao Ying just refused to take any.

Shangguan Shu watched silently, and couldn't help but cover his lips and cough lightly to hide his smile.

He knew that Zhao Ying could hear Shangguan Qingyue's thoughts, so he was not worried.

Seeing that Zhao Ying did not accept the challenge, Princess Xian could not force it or she would be exposed, so she had to find an excuse, saying that she was a little tired and went back to rest for a while.

I'll figure it out after I leave.

After Princess Xian left, Xiao Liu from another table also stood up, claiming that she couldn't drink much and went away for a walk to sober up.

Shangguan Shu picked up Shangguan Qingyue and said to Lord Wang, "Will you accompany me for a walk?"

Lord Wang hurriedly put down his wine cup and said, "I'm coming right up!"

Shangguan Shu thought about it and also invited Zhao Ying. His daughter Ying loved to watch the fun the most. How could he not bring her to such a fun event?

"With the princess?"

Zhao Ying understood the hint in Shangguan Shu's eyes, and stood up despite being puzzled. "Okay."

Seeing this, the virtuous king was disdainful, thinking that Shangguan Shu was just being polite, so Cheng Qian agreed. In order to prevent Zhao Ying from forcing Shangguan Shu to marry him, the virtuous king planned to watch, "I will go with you!"

Shangguan Zhu also said upon seeing this, "Princess, Prince, Big Brother, I will go with you guys too!"

Shangguan Shu curled his lips and chuckled, "It's okay, it's okay, it's good that everyone is here!"

Lord Wang was a little puzzled, but he kept silent.

The group of people set off on their journey.

……

The virtuous princess left with her maid, and when she reached a rockery, she stopped and took out a stack of paper from her sleeve, on which were written: [Xiao Liu, a moment, rockery]

[Zhou Wangshi, 2nd engraving, Minghu]

[Tips to Concubine Fei, three quarters past midnight, Inner Courtyard Wing Room]

[Li, 4:00, firewood room]

[Shen's, five minutes, stable]

It was exactly 1:00 p.m. at this time, it was time for her to meet her beloved Xiao Liu.
