I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

The next day, before the equestrian competition.

Concubine Xiang suddenly remembered Mu Shaoheng's marriage, and specially invited Mu Feishuang to her tent, asking carefully: "How is the progress between you and Mu Shaoheng?"

"Are there any breakthroughs?"

When this was mentioned, Mu Feishuang couldn't help biting her lip. She tried her best. She followed Mu Shaoheng almost wherever he appeared.

Can……

There were always a large number of noble ladies following behind, and she was just one of them.

The most important thing is that whenever they get a little closer to Mu Shaoheng, his servants will fiercely order them: "Back off, back off!"

Anyone who dares to disobey will have his sword drawn!

At first, some noble ladies didn't believe it and bravely pushed forward. As a result, the knife was really cut off, and almost... cut off an arm!

Since then, no noble lady dared to barge in. And because of this... no one could get close to Mu Shaoheng.

As a result... Mu Feishuang did not make any breakthroughs.

Hearing this, Concubine Xiang frowned slightly.

However, she soon relaxed her frown and said, "Today's equestrian competition, the King of Zhenbian will definitely be sitting in the pavilion to watch the competition. You can approach him when the opportunity arises, and I will lend you a hand."

Mu Feishuang nodded when she heard that.

"The Emperor has arrived, the Empress has arrived, and Concubine Xiang has arrived."

In the pergola, a group of dignitaries who had arrived early knelt together to welcome Emperor Jingde, Empress Gao and Concubine Xiang.

Empress Gao was wearing a bright red phoenix robe and a phoenix crown on her head, and she walked dignifiedly on the left side of Emperor Jingde.

Concubine Xiang was wearing a bright red long dress and followed Emperor Jingde seductively. Her phoenix eyes scanned the area restlessly and quickly locked onto Mu Shaoheng who was kneeling in the first row.

He was wearing a white robe and a white jade crown to tie his hair, which made him look even more youthful and handsome.

He looks much younger than the other dignitaries who are in their early thirties.

It's as if he's growing younger than before, and he looks almost the same as Gao Ni, who's about 25 or 26 years old and kneeling next to him. It's really enviable!

(Regarding this, think of the big star "Jimmy Lin", who looks young! If you don't agree, just hold it in!)

If Mu Shao Heng was a woman, Concubine Xiang would have wanted to ask him for the "art of maintaining youth"!

"My dear friends, no courtesy."

Afterwards, Emperor Jingde sat in the middle of the first row of the pavilion.

Empress Gao and Concubine Xiang sat on either side of him.

After Concubine Xiang sat down, she pretended to pick up the teacup and take a sip, but in fact she glanced at Mu Shaoheng.

Mu Shaoheng's seat was also in the first row of the awning, right next to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

It’s just… I don’t know when Mu Shaoheng and Gao Ni became closer, and two grown men are actually sitting at the same table?

Looking at the way they are talking and laughing, they are just like real brothers!

This made Concubine Xiang feel a little uneasy. Gao Ni was the nephew of Empress Gao. She didn't want Mu Shaoheng to get too close to Gao Ni, as it would benefit Empress Gao and the Crown Prince's party.

Therefore, her niece Mu Feishuang had to hurry up and marry Mu Shaoheng to bind them through marriage.

Not long after the equestrian competition began, Concubine Xiang winked at Mu Feishuang.

Mu Feishuang then slowly stood up from the back seat, brought a few palace maids and carried a vermilion tray, and walked slowly to Emperor Jingde.

Mu Feishuang smiled sweetly and said, "Uncle Royal, this is a red crispy snack that my niece got up early this morning to make especially for you and the ladies. Uncle Royal, please try my niece's cooking. Is it good?"

Imperial uncle?

niece?

When Empress Gao heard this, she was very unhappy.

Is this the proper name for a concubine's family?

Even Empress Gao's own nephews, Gao Ni and Gao Yan, never called Emperor Jingde "Imperial Uncle", and always addressed him respectfully as "Your Majesty".

However, Emperor Jingde favored Concubine Xiang without any bottom line, which made Mu Feishuang indulge him even more and call him "Imperial Uncle" regardless of the occasion!

Empress Gao wanted to reprimand her, but she saw...

Mu Feishuang picked up a small piece of red crispy pastry with golden chopsticks and put it from the tray to the plate in front of Emperor Jingde.

Emperor Jingde tasted the food happily and praised with a smile: "Shuang'er's cooking skills are getting better and better!"

Emperor Jingde's attitude forced Empress Gao to suppress her dissatisfaction.

She knew too well that Emperor Jingde was partial to her. If she dared to humiliate Concubine Xiang's family in such an occasion, Emperor Jingde would scold her for not being magnanimous enough as the empress and not even being able to tolerate the family of a concubine.

Thinking of this, Empress Gao could only persuade herself... forget it.

By the way, Mu Feishuang came to Emperor Jingde and showed off... Her great favor from the emperor immediately attracted the attention of a group of single nobles!

Any single noble with good sense would consider whether to marry Mu Feishuang... in order to get closer to Emperor Jingde.

Mu Feishuang was quite proud, and the smile on her eyes and eyebrows became even wider.

At this time, Concubine Xiang secretly looked at Mu Shaoheng who was sitting a few tables away. Well, Mu Shaoheng didn't even glance over here, and even turned his head to whisper something to Gao Ni.

This is completely uninteresting to her Mu Feishuang!

At this moment, two beauties with glowing white skin walked over gracefully. When Concubine Xiang looked closely, she found that they were the sisters Fu Yuzheng and Fu Yushuo from the Marquis of Jingyang's Mansion.

Fu Yuzheng had something to ask Gao Ni, so she asked her sister to accompany her.

Stopping in front of the table, Fu Yuzheng bent down and whispered something in Gao Ni's ear. Gao Ni gently held her hand and said with a smile, "It's a small matter. I'll send someone to do it for you later."

At this moment, Fu Yuzheng accidentally glanced at the table, and her eyes lit up immediately: "Wow, you actually have pomegranates from the Western Regions on this table?"

The grains are plump and bright red, and look delicious.

The total annual production of this kind of big red pomegranate is only five trees, so the number of tributes is very small. Even in the harem, only Empress Gao and Concubine Xiang have a share, and the other concubines can only envy.

Today, only the rich and powerful in the first row can eat it, and those in the second row and above have no share.

In such occasions where dignitaries gather, the fruits and snacks on each table are different, all divided according to the level of dignitaries.

Separatist vassal kings like Mu Shao Heng and powerful officials like Gao Ni who hold the power of life and death naturally enjoy the best treatment.

But today, Fu Yuzheng's parents did not come, so she and her sister sat at the same table with her brother Fu Linghao.

Fu Linghao is only a prince, and he has just entered the officialdom. The weight of his official position is far from enough, so the good things he gets... are naturally limited.

Compared with the table of Mu Shaoheng and Gao Ni...it's totally incomparable!

"I know you like pomegranates, so I asked for three for you." Gao Ni said, and winked at Qingchuan behind him.

Qingchuan understood and quickly handed a small cloth bag to Shihua, the maid behind Fu Yuzheng. The bag contained three bright and plump red pomegranates.

Seeing that Gao Ni was thinking about her so much, Fu Yuzheng raised the corner of her mouth and smiled: "Thank you, Brother Ni."

Over there, Fu Yushu stood quietly and obediently in front of the table, waiting for her sister to finish speaking and then go back.

Mu Shaoheng naturally wouldn't let her be so awkward. He just stood there awkwardly and chatted with her casually.

Suddenly, the white scarf tied around Fu Yushu's waist... accidentally loosened.

Suddenly, it was blown by the autumn wind and landed on the tip of Mu Shaoheng's boots, covering the toe.

Fu Yushu: ...

I feel a little embarrassed.

Upon seeing this, Mu Shaoheng personally bent down and picked up her white handkerchief. His eyes swept over the word "Shu" embroidered on the corner of her handkerchief. The handwriting was truly like her personality, dignified and elegant.

"Ms. Fu, I accidentally stepped on it and left a little shoe print." Mu Shaoheng handed it to her with a handkerchief in his hand, looked at her pretty face, and said apologetically.

"It's okay. Thank you, Your Highness." Fu Yushu took the handkerchief and thanked him with a gentle smile.

The whole scene was seen by Concubine Xiang.

Pick up a handkerchief and return it to a girl?

Don't tell her that Mu Shaoheng is a warm-hearted and easy-going person. Anyone who has come into contact with Mu Shaoheng knows that he is not easy to talk to at all!

Harder to approach than high nickel!

At least when facing outsiders, Gao Ni would smile and give you a false impression of being friendly. Mu Shaoheng was completely different. He had a cold face and didn't bother to talk to others.

Rumor has it that Mu Shaoheng is only close to people he approves of.

In this case, it is unclear whether Mu Shaoheng likes Fu Yushuo or not, but at least he is not against her.

Just the three words "not rejecting" were enough to make Concubine Xiang clench her handkerchief tightly.

Just at this time, Mu Feishuang was delivering "red crispy snacks" to the dignitaries in the first row one by one. When she delivered them to the table of Mu Shaoheng and Gao Ni, Fu Yusu and Fu Yuzheng had already left.

"Your Highness, would you please try my cooking?" Mu Feishuang glanced at Mu Shaoheng's handsome young face and thought that it would be nice to marry him.

He is in a high position with great power, good looks, and can control Fu Linghao and Cui Jiaojiao.

It really kills two birds with one stone.

Unexpectedly, when she was shyly waiting for Mu Shaoheng's response...

Mu Shaoheng didn't even glance at her, nor did he say "hmm", and simply ignored her.

The servant behind him stepped forward and said on behalf of the prince, "Thank you, Miss Mu, for your kindness." After that, he looked at Mu Feishuang steadily, waiting for her to know what was good for her and... get out of here.

Mu Feishuang: ???

As she delivered the food all the way over, no matter whether it was the Empress sitting at the east end, His Royal Highness Prince Jing (the current Crown Prince), His Royal Highness Prince Duan (the current Crown Prince), or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on this side, they all gave her face and praised her "excellent craftsmanship".

When he got to Mu Shaoheng... he was actually sent away by a servant?

"Look, this third young man is really good at horse riding!"

Suddenly, Gao Ni patted Mu Shaoheng on the shoulder, pointed at the contestant riding a horse on the competition field, and smiled and asked Mu Shaoheng to look quickly.

Mu Shaoheng took a look and replied with a smile: "Not bad, judging from his performance, he can be among the top three. Whose son is he?"

Mu Shaoheng stayed in the capital for a long time this year, but he was not able to recognize all the princes and nobles.

Gao Ni smiled and said, "The eldest son of the Minister of War."

The two of them chatted back and forth like this, completely ignoring Mu Feishuang who was waiting on the side.

Mu Feishuang was so embarrassed!

His face flushed uncomfortably!

I had to leave in disappointment.

Concubine Xiang naturally saw this scene, and she couldn't help but frowning slightly.

It's obvious that Mu Shaoheng has no interest in Mu Feishuang.

Especially with Fu Yushu in front, comparing the two attitudes, Mu Shaoheng's attitude towards Fu Yushu can be said to be... more enthusiastic!

Suddenly, Concubine Xiang felt a sense of crisis...

No, we must cut the Gordian knot and marry Mu Feishuang to Mu Shaoheng as soon as possible!

Ask the Emperor to grant me marriage?

It doesn't really work.

For a powerful prince like Mu Shaoheng, his princess must be approved by him personally. Even if the emperor grants the marriage, he will communicate with him privately and will never grant the marriage rashly.

After thinking it over, Concubine Xiang took the opportunity to call Mu Feishuang to the dressing room and quietly instructed her:

"Wait a minute, I will send someone to dirty the clothes of the King of Zhenbian and lead him to the dressing room. You hide here in advance and light the warm incense... Do you know what you should do?"

"Be bold... At the critical moment, I will bring people to... and catch them..."

"Once you succeed, I will make sure you become my queen!"

Mu Feishuang was no longer a virgin. As soon as she heard what Concubine Xiang wanted her to do, she immediately pretended to be "shy" and nodded shyly.
