After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

"Brother Seven." Murong Lingyi came up to him and hugged Yan Mu's arm intimately, "I didn't know you were here until I saw Jiang Yuan."

Yan Mu smiled fondly and said, "Mrs. Zhen Guo has sent an invitation, but I won't come if I don't want to."

"Today is obviously a blind date party, what are you doing here!" Murong Lingyi said coquettishly.

"You can come, but I can't?"

"I don't care, you can't do it anyway."

Yan Mu still smiled, "Okay, I'll listen to you next time."

After hearing this, Murong Lingyi was satisfied. She glanced at the flower hall and asked, "Brother Seven was alone in the flower hall just now?"

Yan Mu smiled, "I did see a wild cat."

Liu Yunxiang gritted his teeth and complained in his heart: You are a wild cat, no, you are a wild dog!

Murong Lingyi was then satisfied. Just as he was about to say something, Liu Yunxiang, who was standing aside, remembered that she was still there and immediately rushed away:

"Third Madam, the crabapple flowers are blooming well over there."

Liu Yunxiang knew that Murong Lingyi was chasing her, and she wanted to leave, but looking at the rouge on Yan Muli's collar, she couldn't move.

If Murong Lingyi discovers this, he will have to repeat what happened in his previous life!

"I also heard that there is a begonia garden in the Zhenguo Palace. It is in full bloom here. Looking from a distance, there are clusters of begonias, like clouds."

As Liu Yunxiang spoke, he secretly winked at Yan Mu, but he didn't even look at her.

Liu Yunxiang was so angry that he almost fainted. Now he could only bite the bullet and said: "Princess, why don't we go and take a look together?"

Murong Lingyi frowned. Why was this person so opaque? He could only say bluntly: "Third Madam, go and see her. Master Yan and I have something to discuss."

"Then...I won't bother you." Liu Yunxiang said and turned around, but he was really unwilling to do so.

If Murong Lingyi discovers something, he will definitely target her. But right now, she doesn't have the energy or the ability to deal with her, and is just afraid of ending up like the previous life.

Thinking like this, Liu Yunxiang stumbled deliberately and said, "Ouch."

She fell to the ground, deliberately covering her lower abdomen, pretending to be in pain, of course for Yan Mu to see.

But he ignored it and took Murong Lingyi outside.

Liu Yunxiang's heart still ached. He really didn't care about her and her child's life or death.

Here, Yan Mu and Murong Lingyi came to the pavilion by the lake.

"Why do I feel that the third lady of the Hou Mansion is weird? Were you not together just now?"

Yan Mu raised his eyebrows: "What are we doing together?"

"Of course..." As Murong Lingyi finished speaking, her face turned red and she stamped her feet angrily, "Seventh Brother!"

"She's a widow."

"What's wrong with widows? There are also widows who don't keep their wives."

Yan Mu raised his cup and took a sip of tea, "That's right."

"You're not attracted to that Liu Yunxiang, are you?"

"Lingyi, you know what I'm thinking."

Murong Lingyi pursed her lips and said, "I know you only have one person in your heart, but she is already the imperial concubine. You can't stay away from a wife for her for the rest of your life."

"Not to marry."

Murong Lingyi sighed, disappointment flashing across his face.

"What the hell are you looking for from me?"

"The emperor intends to betroth me to Prince Suping's son, Lu Chang'an. I don't like that sick man. Please think of a way for me."

Murong Lingyi's mother was the eldest princess of the court, the biological sister of the emperor's mother, and her father was General Weiyuan.

Yan Mu turned the tea cup in his hand, thought for a moment, and said: "The evidence that the prince intended to rebel was presented to the emperor by your father. Although he has done meritorious service, the emperor is suspicious by nature and has a suspicion against your father and the eldest princess." Sue. Prince Ping is a king with a different surname, and he has a lot of troops. The emperor is asking you to marry the crown prince. Firstly, he is trying to win over Prince Suping for the royal family, and secondly, he is also testing your general's palace."

"so what should I do?"

"You can't marry. If you marry, you will be a pawn in the hands of the emperor. You can only be at his mercy."

"My mother thinks so too, but she just has no way to turn down the marriage."

"So the eldest princess asked you to come to me?"

Murong Lingyi stuck out his tongue, "Seventh brother loves me the most and won't let me jump into the fire pit."

"Please come down first and show your loyalty to the general to the emperor."

"what?"

"This Lu Changan won't live long."

Murong Lingyi felt relieved when he saw that Yan Mu must know something when he said this. At this time, she inadvertently touched Yan Mu's collar, and there was a touch of rouge on it.

In fact, I just saw Liu Yunxiang coming out of the flower hall, and her charming look, and I figured out what was going on after just thinking about it.

A gloomy look flashed in Murong Lingyi's eyes.

The banquet was held in the Begonia Garden, with only a blooming Begonia between the men's and women's seats.

Liu Yunxiang was arranged to sit at a table by the maid of the Duke's Mansion, and Xie Wenqing shared the same table with her.

Xie Wenqing kept glancing towards the opposite side intentionally or unintentionally, with a shy look on her face. She followed her gaze and saw Yan Mu sitting opposite, with a lazy posture, wearing a dark robe, which made her face look as beautiful as jade. Seen from this angle, the crabapple flowers complement him perfectly, but they are not as stunning as him.

When the banquet started, Murong Lingyi came around in a circle, poured a glass of wine and handed it to her.

"Third Madam, why do you only drink tea? Come, let me have a glass of wine with you."

Liu Yunxiang's heart suddenly tightened.

The two of them are not familiar with each other, and their status is quite different. What should they drink?

Moreover, as soon as Murong Lingyi came over, everyone looked here intentionally or unintentionally.

Liu Yunxiang looked at the glass of wine in front of him and thought about it. He guessed that Murong Lingyi might have seen the rouge red, and felt hateful and helpless in his heart. He could only say with a smile on his face: "I don't know how to drink."

"Just one cup."

"I really can't drink it."

"Third Madam, don't you give me face?"

"...I caught a cold and drank medicine this morning. The doctor told me not to drink alcohol."

"Really?"

"Don't dare lie to the princess."

"Why do I feel like you are just lying to me?"

The wine had already been poured, and it was Murong Lingyi who poured it himself. He brought it to Liu Yunxiang, but she didn't accept it. With so many people watching, how could she, a dignified princess, get off the stage?

Murong Lingyi raised his eyebrows, "This is not simple. The young master from the Taiyuan Hospital is over there. Please ask him to come and show you, Third Madam, whether it's really cold and whether you really can't drink."

Liu Yunxiang felt nervous. If the doctor took a look, her pregnancy would not be exposed.

"Why should the princess embarrass me?"

Murong Lingyi narrowed his eyes and whispered, "I just want to know how brave you are to lie to me."

"..."

"No, the doctor is here!"
