Her elder sister steals her husband? She marries the God of War and is pampered beyond measure!

Chapter 247 Isn't that your second brother?

Upon hearing Shangguan Qingqi's words, Su Mowan began to speculate about the young master in front of her.

Shangguan Qingqi called him "Young Master Mu". In the entire capital, the Mu family was the most prominent family, belonging to the Minister of Works.

So this person is Mu Qingchen?

Su Mowan was unaware of what Fu Changge had said during his battle with Su Ruofeng, but she had heard rumors that the Ministry of Works' residence intended to form a marriage alliance with the Ministry of Rites' residence.

Su Mowan subtly observed and compared the person in front of her with Su Ruofeng.

Appearance: Slightly unattractive.

In terms of temperament, it's a tie.

Her figure is slightly lacking.

Overall, Su Ruofeng wins.

The person in front of her was indeed Mu Qingchen, the son of the Minister of Works; Su Mowan had indeed guessed correctly.

Mu Qingchen's face stiffened slightly at Shangguan Qingqi's impolite words, but she quickly recovered and smiled even more brightly than before.

"I don't understand what you mean, Young Master Shangguan. When it comes to women, I'm not as experienced as you are. I can only write a couple of articles."

This was a sarcastic remark mocking Shangguan Qingqi for only knowing how to seek pleasure.

Su Mowan was really curious. The Minister of Works was two ranks lower than the Right Chancellor. How dare Mu Qingchen speak to Shangguan Qingqi like that?

Shangguan Qingqi curled his lips slightly, snorted through his nose, and said with extreme disdain, "That's why some people are ruining the classics. If the sages knew, they would probably be so angry that they would crawl out of their tombs."

Mu Qingchen's cheeks twitched slightly as she secretly gritted her teeth.

The Seventh Princess also frowned and glanced at Mu Qingchen a few times. She had seen Mu Qingchen a few times, all of them from afar during palace banquets.

She had a fairly good impression of Mu Qingchen before, but hearing Mu Qingchen speak to Shangguan Qingqi like this made her unhappy.

She felt that she and Shangguan Qingqi were on the same side, so why was Mu Qingchen acting so wildly?

Not to mention that Mu Qingchen had no intention of bowing to her at all.

The Seventh Princess has finally found a good reason to lash out.

She mimicked Shangguan Qingqi's disdainful snort. The Seventh Princess, not being tall enough, glanced at Mu Qingchen from below.

"Isn't this the son of the Minister of Works? He didn't even greet me when he saw the princess. How can someone so rude expect to pass the exam? The civil service exam is just four words: 'select the virtuous and capable.' If you're not virtuous enough, even if you're incredibly capable, it's useless!"

Mu Qingchen's face flushed red and then turned pale.

Unfortunately, he couldn't refute the Seventh Princess's words; he had indeed been impolite first. But the Seventh Princess's comment about being 'rude' infuriated Mu Qingchen.

He and Shangguan Qingqi had always disliked each other, and when he saw Shangguan Qingqi and his group huddled in a corner, he couldn't help but want to come over and make a few sarcastic remarks.

He did see the Seventh Princess at first, but in his eyes, she was just a concubine princess whose birth mother was of low status and who was raised under the Empress's name. She had no real power and was not worth his attention.

But the Seventh Princess seized on his mistake. Could he possibly say, "What right does a princess with no status have to put on airs?"

Of course not.

Even if the Seventh Princess truly had no status and was not favored, he dared not say so.

The fact that they had shown disrespect for royal authority was so easily handed over to their opponents.

Mu Qingchen gritted her teeth secretly, forced a smile, bowed to the Seventh Princess, and said humbly, "Your Highness is right to teach me a lesson!"

The Seventh Princess raised an eyebrow triumphantly at Shangguan Qingqi, then said to Mu Qingchen, "Alright, it's good to admit your mistakes and correct them. I dare not accept your instruction, after all, this princess is only good at being a good person, nothing else."

Su Mowan found it amusing.

Isn't the Seventh Princess implying that Mu Qingchen doesn't know how to behave? She really dares to say that, making Mu Qingchen so angry that her face turned red.

Mu Qingchen endured for a while, barely managing to hold back, afraid that the Seventh Princess might say something unpleasant that he couldn't refute, so he had no choice but to cup his hands and hurriedly take his leave.

"Since Your Highness has someone to accompany you, then I shall take my leave!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly turned and left, as if afraid that if he was a step too slow, the Seventh Princess would call him back.

"Ha, he looks all human and dog-like, but he's such a disgusting thing."

After the Seventh Princess finished speaking, she looked down on Shangguan Qingqi beside her and said with disdain, "Aren't you very capable? How come even someone like this dares to provoke you? Show some of the air you have when you speak to this princess! You're really useless!"

"..."

Shangguan Qingqi had just been praising her in his heart, but now he could only silently tell himself, "Don't argue with a woman."

The seventh princess realized that no one was paying attention to her and suddenly felt bored.

She pursed her lips, then glanced at the list of notices, her eyes immediately lighting up.

"Hey, sister-in-law! Isn't that your second brother?"

"..."

Su Mowan got goosebumps from the Seventh Princess's address of "Second Brother". She followed the Seventh Princess's gaze and saw Su Ruofeng in an indigo brocade robe.

He stood in front of the notice.

There was a person standing next to Su Ruofeng, and the two were talking, both with faint smiles on their faces.

Su Mowan narrowed her eyes, and was surprised when she saw the person clearly.

It turned out to be Tang Minzhi.

When did Su Ruofeng become acquainted with Tang Minzhi?

Just as Su Mowan's doubts began to rise, she saw a person squeeze from behind the crowd to stand next to the two of them. Tang Minzhi stepped aside slightly to let Su Ruofeng talk to the person.

Just looking at his back, he seemed somewhat familiar.

After the man turned his head slightly, Su Mowan recognized him as Tang Minzhi's elder brother, Tang Jingzhi.

If it were Tang Jingzhi and Su Ruofeng talking, Su Mowan could understand, since the two at least had some common topics.

However, Tang Jingzhi failed to rank in the top three in that martial arts exam, which surprised and saddened Su Mowan.

Reaching out and touching Shangguan Qingqi's arm, Su Mowan asked softly, "In that competition, did Tang Jingzhi end up facing you or Shen Muyao?"

Shangguan Qingqi followed their gaze and saw Su Ruofeng and Tang Jingzhi chatting together.

He frowned slightly.

"It wasn't me, nor was it Shen Muyao; it was your second brother, Su Ruofeng."

"Is that my second brother?"

Su Mowan really couldn't understand it this time.

She knew Su Ruofeng's true strength and abilities. Tang Jingzhi seemed to be much more skilled than Su Ruofeng, and it wouldn't be a big problem for him to win against her.

Could it be that Su Ruofeng only managed to defeat Tang Jingzhi by chance because he relied on that Gentleman's Sword?

Seeing the two chatting happily, Su Mowan was even more puzzled.

Shangguan Qingqi lowered his head slightly.

Seeing the expression on her face, he also said in a low voice, "Don't say you don't believe me, I'm surprised too. Although Su Ruofeng is not bad, Tang Jingzhi is obviously much better than him, but he still lost to him."

Su Mowan frowned slightly: "You were there that afternoon, did you notice anything?"

Shangguan Qingqi shook his head.

"It was a beautiful loss, you can't really tell anything from it, but something just doesn't feel right."

Seeing the two talking in hushed tones, the Seventh Princess became displeased.

Their heads were practically touching! Shangguan Qingqi's shoulder was practically resting on his sister-in-law's shoulder!

With her third brother away, she has to keep a close eye on things for him!

So the Seventh Princess squeezed between the two of them, first glaring at Shangguan Qingqi, then turning to Su Mowan with a sweet smile.

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Are you talking about the rankings? There's no need to guess here. Isn't Brother Ruofeng over there? Why don't you just ask him to take a look?"

Brother Ruofeng...

He's already upgraded from 'your second brother' to 'Ruofeng brother', that's incredibly fast!

Su Mowan coughed lightly and said, "It's too far away. Let's go see him when there are fewer people around. Are you going to shout for him from here?"

The Seventh Princess was clearly getting impatient. Su Mowan was preoccupied with whispering with Shangguan Qingqi, leaving her all alone, which made her even more unhappy.

“It’s not that we can’t shout here, but Brother Ruofeng might not be able to hear us. Why don’t we go over there now? There are more and more people, and if we wait any longer, it will be dark.”

The seventh princess looked at her eagerly.

Su Mowan glanced back at the street she had come from, and indeed, there were more and more people. The Seventh Princess's words made sense.

She turned to look at Shangguan Qingqi.

"How about we squeeze through now?"

Shangguan Qingqi nodded: "Sure, I just noticed you don't like squeezing in with others."

You actually noticed that.

Su Mowan raised her chin and instructed, "You're tough and resilient, so you can lead the way. We'll follow behind."

"What thick skin? The only thing I have that's a little thick skin is my face."

Even as he was saying it, he was already walking ahead, actually clearing the way.

The seventh princess immediately clung to her.

She clung to Su Mowan's arm and said with a grin, "Sister-in-law, let's go!"

Su Mowan sighed and said in a low voice, "Don't call me that in public."

The seventh princess pouted and said "Oh," indicating that she understood.

As she followed behind, Su Mowan felt for the first time that Shangguan Qingqi and Su Mobai's backs were indeed four or five points similar, except that Shangguan Qingqi looked more lazy, while Su Mobai was more refined.

Su Mowan suddenly thought of Murong Jing.

If Murong Jing's legs were fine, what would his walking silhouette look like?

Wenya is unlikely to be refined, nor could she be like Shangguan Qingqi.

Chic?

It's hard to imagine...

Murong Jing's handsome face and cold temperament flashed through her mind. Su Mowan thought, perhaps Murong Jing's walk was a bit too revealing.

Unfortunately, when she first met Murong Jing, his legs were almost crippled, so she didn't get to appreciate his heroic figure.

Su Mowan walked and sighed, somewhat absent-minded, and almost bumped into Shangguan Qingqi, who suddenly stopped in front of her.

Fortunately, the Seventh Princess grabbed one of her arms and pulled her back.

"Sister-in-law, cough, what are you thinking about! Aren't you watching where you're going?!"

"I didn't think anything of it."

Su Mowan smiled at her.

Then he urged Shangguan Qingqi in front of him, "Shangguan, why did you stop? Can't you squeeze through?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Su Mowan heard a familiar voice coming from ahead.

"Shangguan, you're really being unfair! You didn't even invite your brothers to come see the list!"

Su Mowan got a headache as soon as she heard that voice.

Shangguan Qingqi, who was in front, sighed helplessly and said with a faint smile, "Why did I call you? Aren't you busy at home dealing with your father?"

"Don't even mention it! I don't know what's wrong with the old man lately. He's too busy worrying about Yingli to worry about me! I finally managed to escape, so you'd better treat me to a good meal later!"

Su Mowan suddenly stepped aside and stood next to Shangguan Qingqi.

She gave the newcomer a rude sneer.
