Chapter 423: Chaste and Martyr (1)
If it were someone else who disrupted the tea ceremony, they would have been expelled from the hall long ago, but this Yan Mushang appeared in the Yongen Hall uninvited, and was full of nonsense. Now he directly took the teacup from Shangguan Ning's hand in disregard of etiquette, and he couldn't see the empress dowager's still pampered and half-displeased face.

"Empress, you can drink too!"

Yan Mushang picked up another cup of tea on the tray by the way, but this time he didn't use any internal strength. When the teacup was stretched out in front of Empress Wen, the other party hesitated for a moment, but this tiny little movement Both Shangguan Ning and Yan Mushang understood.

After Empress Wen took the cup, she just touched her lips symbolically, then put the cup back on the tray very naturally, her face was extremely calm.

"reward!"

As expected of someone who has been a queen for more than [-] years, such concentration and concealment are not something ordinary people can achieve.

"Thank you Empress Dowager, thank you Empress Empress for your reward!"

Shangguan Ning leaned over and took the gift with both hands, and after handing it to Le'er, he knelt down on the ground again to thank him and saluted. The queen always had a gentle and loving expression with a smile on her face, while the queen mother had a sleepy expression on her face. After beating Yan Mushang into the palace gate, he really didn't make things difficult for Shangguan Ning anymore.

"Okay, okay, let's go to Qianye Hall, it's not good to delay the time!"

Empress Wen's voice sounded again, but Shangguan Ning felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the voice.

"Shangguan Ning thanked the Empress Dowager and Empress again, and wished the Empress Dowager and Empress good health!"

"Miss Shangguan, this way please!"

The little eunuch who had accompanied him all the way from Shangguan's mansion had been waiting outside the hall, and when he saw Shangguan Ning turned around and was about to come out, he rushed forward to lead the way.

Before Shangguan Ning turned around, she met Yan Mushang's eyes for a moment. Yan Mushang nodded lightly and Shangguan Ning knew it was to reassure herself.

Jiang Yilan, on the other hand, stared reluctantly at Yan Mushang, who was still standing beside the queen mother, greedily looking at the other's handsome face, imagining how she would marry into the Chengyang Palace, but she didn't notice the twinkle in Yan Mushang's eyes And the killing intent passed.

The little eunuch walked quickly in front, and Shangguan Ning, Jiang Yilan, and Le'er followed behind. Since there was only a high wall between Yongen Hall and Qianye Hall, Shangguan Ning did not take the sedan chair this time.

As soon as he left the gate of Yong En Hall, he saw two figures from a distance, one fat and the other thin. Although he hadn't been able to see each other's face clearly, Guan Ning knew who they were just by looking at their outlines. This fat man was once the powerful person that Jiang Yilan wanted to cling to!
"Hey, my hairpin is gone!"

Shangguan Ning suddenly yelled nervously, and repeatedly rummaged through her hair bun and even the skirt of her clothes with her hands, but found nothing, and then Shangguan Ning's complexion became extremely ugly.

"Miss, the left one is just a hairpin. There are several beautiful hairpins among the gifts from the Empress Dowager and the Empress just now. You can just replace them!"

Jiang Yilan had already looked through all the objects on the tray with her eyes, and saw that the rare and exquisite jewelry inside was neatly arranged, and any one she took out would be priceless.

"No, it's an imperial gift from His Majesty Ji Ji Li, and it cannot be lost."

Shangguan Ning looked panicked, as if she was really anxious and flustered.

"Miss, let's look for that servant and cousin... Sister Lan together!"

"No, all the things before are for you to store and keep, and only you are the most familiar with the things you need to use later. At this time, you can't leave even one step away...".
