Then, the carriage of the Eighth Prince Mansion turned around and went back down the same road. There was only a short distance in front of them, but the way around was a long one.
It was so coincidental that one had to doubt it.
Qu Tan’er looked ahead doubtfully, then turned around and glanced behind. She didn’t say anything and when she turned back and sat down, she couldn’t help looking in the direction of Mo Liancheng.
Unexpectedly, Mo Liancheng was also staring at her at this time.
Their eyes met, and in just a flash, they moved away and didn’t meet again.
While each has his own thoughts, the atmosphere is even heavier.
Thump, thump, thump!
The speed of the heartbeat couldn’t help accelerating, accelerating, and then accelerating again.
Qu Tan’er took a breath and exhaled it slightly. Unexpectedly, after having spent so much time looking at that face, even though it was handsome, her heart did not even beat so hard at first sight. However, the heartbeat just now really happened, and even she was caught off guard.
Her lips moved slightly, and she couldn’t help but curse… Evil doer, evil doer, everything is nothing.1“
“That… don’t you think it’s too coincidental?”
“Unfortunately, Benwang does not know. But some people definitely don’t want Benwang to arrive from the Eighth Prince Mansion too early.” Mo Liancheng lay back, with a smile like a light breeze, and his posture lazy and casual.
“Why?” Qu Tan’er blurted out.
Unexpectedly, Mo Liancheng’s narrow phoenix eyes looked up and he asked, “Haha, don’t you think Benwang is so dazzling that it will steal the limelight of some people in front of my father?”
But why did he fall into a trap again? She didn’t understand, but she wouldn’t ask.
In the imperial power struggle, there will always be people taking measures. She was an outsider so of course she should try her best to avoid being involved.
In the end, though it was quite early when they left the residence, a lot of time was spent on the road.
When Mo Liancheng and Qu Tan’er arrived at the grand palace, the emperor, the queen and the empress dowager had all returned to the imperial palace. Even so, the atmosphere in the residence had not faded at all, but seemed more lively.
“Eighth prince, eighth princess are here.”
As soon as the gatekeeper saw Mo Liancheng and Qu Tan’er, they announced loudly to the residence.
“Eighth Brother, why are you so late? You can see that you missed a lot of good shows.” Mo Jingxuan walked over and looked at Qu Tan’er with a smile, indicating the situation behind him with his eyes.
Mo Liancheng looked at the person in front of him with a faint smile. Sure enough.
However, another scene should also be played.
“Father, my mother and Empress Dowager have just left. If Eighth brother had come earlier, I would definitely have seen eldest brother watch father praise him, and the Empress Dowager give a scolding.” Mo Jingxuan smiled strangely and did not directly say what happened, but it was imaginable.
“Don’t worry, I’ll keep watching.” Mo Liancheng laughed leisurely, and then walked directly into the crowd.
As soon as Qu Tan’er had entered the door, she shut her mouth. If she shouldn’t speak, she wouldn’t open her mouth. If she shouldn’t see, she would never looked around. Where she shouldn’t go, her feet were also very obedient, so as long as she followed Mo Liancheng, there would never be any problems.
It’s just…
“Sister-in-law.” Mo Jingxuan suddenly stopped her gently, with a deep smile.
“What’s the matter?” Qu Tan’er raised her head slightly and glanced at him. Her footsteps just stopped, but she continued again in less than half a second. At the same time, in order to avoid being too far away from Mo Liancheng, feeling her life was not safe, she also slightly accelerated her pace.
