"Xiao Mo, are you unwell?"

Mu Qingling asked in confusion. She only casually glanced at the window, but in the end, she saw Xiao Mo shaking his head with a dark expression.

"I'm fine."

Xiao Mo stared at the scenery outside the window in a daze, she also had to thank Mu Qingling. After being asked like this, the scenes in her head completely disappeared.

Mu Qingling looked at Shen Zhu with a skeptical look, as if asking: What's wrong with him?

Shen Zhu made a "hush" gesture with his hand: "Don't ask anymore, it's fine."

Mu Qingling could only nod his head and obediently sat on the side, waiting for the waiter to serve the dish.

After dinner, Mu Xiangsi suggested that they take a stroll on the streets.

"This is the first time I've been to the Liang Kingdom, and I heard that the Liang Kingdom is extremely valuable and delicious, with a lot of fun. I wanted to see it for a long time, let's go together."

"Alright."

"I want to sleep after I finish eating, but since elder sister said she would go, then I'll go too."

Mu Qingling's left hand held onto Shen Zhu's arm, and his right hand held onto Mu Xiangsi's arm as he entered the carriage.

Xiao Mo could only follow along.

The street was bustling with noise and excitement.

Gale and Rong Yin followed behind them.

At first, the three girls walked in front, but later they became Mu Xiangsi and Xiao Mo walking at the front, with Shen Zhu and Mu Qingling following behind them.

Mu Xiangsi had to carefully inspect every single one of them.

"Miss, please take a look at this hairpin!"

The peddler gave a green hairpin to Mu Xiangsi.

Mu Xiangsi took it. The workmanship was exquisite, it was the shape of a peach flower with tassels on it.

"I'll take it, Xiao Mo, give me the money!" Mu Xiangsi passed the hairpin to Xiao Mo who was behind him, and continued to walk forward.

Xiao Mo paid her from behind and expressionlessly followed behind her with a few boxes in his hands.

He swore to not owe anyone money in his next life, and not to owe Mu Xiangsi money either. No, in his next life, he would not know Mu Xiangsi!

"Let's go!"

Mu Xiangsi, who was walking forward a few steps, turned his head to look.

If he were to put aside his status as an emperor, he would be like a young wife that dared not say anything.

"He's here, what's the rush?"

Xiao Mo was a little impatient, but deep inside his heart, he didn't want to get angry at her.

Mu Xiangsi glared at him and continued to walk forward. Every time he passed a stall, he would have to stop and take a look. Then, he would pick something up and ask Xiao Mo to pay him directly.

"Isn't this Sugar Man too cute!?" Xiao Mo, pay! "

"Isn't this rouge too beautiful?" I want all of these colors! Xiao Mo, pay! "

"Bracelet, hmm, do you want it or not? Then take one, Xiao Mo, pay! "

"Umbrella?" It did not rain, but it is always right to buy one, Xiao Mo, pay! "

"The fan is not bad too, I want this one, Xiao Mo, pay!"

"Chestnut cake, green bean cake, osmanthus cake, Xiao Mo, pay!"

It was only until they reached the end of the street that Mu Xiangsi finally felt a little tired. He stretched his neck and yawned as he turned his head back to look, only to see that Xiao Mo behind him had been drowned in many large and small boxes.

"Pfft!"

Mu Xiangsi could not hold back and laughed out loud. Mu Qingling and Shen Zhu, who had followed behind, covered their mouths and laughed.

Xiao Mo stood on the street coldly. He felt that accompanying a woman shopping was a hundred times more difficult than staying up all night to handle the affairs of the court, especially with a woman like Mu Xiangsi who was intentionally making things difficult for him.

"In this world, only the Elder Sister Xiangsi would dare to torment Xiao Mo like that! Hahaha!"

Mu Qingling felt that Xiao Mo's dark face was funny, thinking back to his usual cold and heartless look, the contrast was so huge that it could even be recorded in history.

Shen Zhu laughed a few times. Seeing that although Xiao Mo looked unhappy, there was no anger in his eyes. To indulge a woman you care about. She didn't expect that the ruthless emperor would be so passionate. She was more and more optimistic about the two of them.

"Sigh, Little Ling Er, I didn't torment him. Xiao Mo was truly a good person who only appeared once in a hundred years. I remember that we, Shen Zhu, are engaged to him, right? I think this marriage will do. "

Mu Xiangsi casually said, but noticed that the faces of these three people were a little strange.

It was true that there was a marriage contract, but why did she feel like there were some things that she didn't know about?

"Did I say something wrong?"

Mu Xiangsi bit his lips and looked at Mu Qingling for help. Seeing the latter's troubled face, Mu Xiangsi's heart skipped a beat and thought, "Oh no!"

"Actually, big sister is already married and has children."

Mu Qingling's voice was muffled, and the expression on his face was one of awkwardness.

Why did she forget to explain this to Mu Xiangsi just now? His plan had failed!

"Ah?" Oh, that, that's a pity. "

Mu Xiangsi laughed awkwardly, and coughed a few times in embarrassment, "Let's go back. Didn't Xiao Mo bring along a chef to come here?

She walked back in the direction she had come from, wanting nothing more than to get rid of this strange atmosphere.

Mu Qingling tugged on Shen Zhu's clothes, "Elder sister, let's go back."

She felt somewhat sorry for him, like a pitiful child who had done something wrong.

"It's fine, this is the truth. Sooner or later, I'll have to tell her. Let's go."

Shen Zhu smiled, raised his hand and pinched Mu Qingling's face, then walked with her towards Mu Xiangsi's direction.

The three girls had all left, leaving only Xiao Mo standing at the same place.

Just a moment ago, in front of Mu Xiangsi, he was actually a little conflicted over his engagement with him. He felt sour in his heart, and it was not a good feeling.

Wasn't he very determined to marry Shen Zhu? Isn't it imperative? Why did he wish not to be engaged just a moment ago?

Xiao Mo shook his head vigorously, he felt that since he did not go out today to read the Yellow Calendar, if he did, it would be because he did not know what to do!

Forget it, don't think too much.

He sighed and turned to see the wind rushing toward him.

"Mistress, let me do it."

Gale reaches out and grabs the things in his hand, lowering his head, not daring to look him in the eye.

He knew that his master must be furious!

"Gale."

Xiao Mo squinted his eyes and looked at him, his voice was calm, no emotions could be heard, but Gale's entire body was drenched in cold sweat.

"Here."

Gale answered, trying his best to remain calm, thinking in his heart: I am loyal, I will not hesitate to die, my master is Xiao Mo!

"I will deal with you when we get back!" "Let's go!"

Xiao Mo took a big step forward. His arms were aching and his throat was hurting from not drinking water for a long time. He was too lazy to waste time talking nonsense with Gale on the streets.

Gale breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully followed behind him. He thought that if he made a mistake in the future, he would definitely go and plead with Princess Lovesick. It would be even more effective than sparing his life!
