The huge palace was filled with music and bright lights.
Jiang Huaiyang didn't even care about the officials and wives in Taiji. He stretched out his long arms and took the person to his knees.
Ruan Yuyi moved uncomfortably, and as expected, there was a warning in her ears, so she had to turn away and not look at the people below. Even though her face was extremely red, she still remembered, "I have been sitting there without moving.
There is no random seduction.”
"Yes, you didn't." He held her waist tightly.
It's just that you are seducing someone without knowing it. If you had known it, you should have asked her to dress more modestly.
He pulled the hood of the cloak and put it on the little lady. The cloak was wide and almost covered the little lady inside. Her eyes suddenly darkened and she asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty?"
She touched the brim of her hat and wanted to take it off.
"Wear it." He ordered in a deep voice.
She remained silent and leaned against him. Her breath was filled with the familiar fragrance, and the hood limited her gaze. In the small area of light, only his broad shoulders and slender neck were visible.
Halfway through the palace banquet, there was a break from singing and dancing. Envoys from the vassal countries came to the emperor to present gifts.
Ruan Yuyi was too shy to look back, so she simply buried her head on his shoulder and neck, listening to the sounds in her ears.
What can be brought to the imperial court are nothing more than some rare treasures. They are no different from those in previous years. They are still fresh when they are first seen. But this year, there are no more flowers. The only difference is that the person sitting on it is
The emperor in the first place was changed.
When the envoy met the new emperor at the banquet in the palace, he did not leave his concubine in his arms. He only thought that he was a man of lust, so he looked understanding and cupped his hands and said, "I know that your majesty has no shortage of ordinary treasures. Therefore, I am here to meet you.
If you bring something, your Majesty will be sure to be happy."
After saying this, he clapped his hands twice, and a graceful woman in beautiful clothes stepped in outside the door.
She didn't seem to be afraid of the cold. She was only wearing a gold-woven gauze dress, and when she walked around, her gold chains were dangling around her body. She wore a veil, revealing only a pair of deep eyes.
She bowed gracefully, smiled sweetly, and said, "I have met Your Majesty." She was full of kitsch and gorgeous beauty.
Listening to this non-standard language, Ruan Yuyi realized that the envoy presented a woman. She turned her face sideways and slightly lifted her hood to take a look.
There were two seats side by side underneath, with all kinds of silk and brocade clothes, gold bottles and jade lamps, all at their feet. Her heart tightened slightly, was this the scene he saw?
After seeing that exotic beauty, she felt uneasy in her heart, but she felt a little cold and panicked for others.
Jiang Huaiyang leaned close to her ear and lowered his voice, allowing only the two of them to hear, "Such a beauty, Lingling, do you think I should stay or not?"
After listening to what the Queen Mother said, she also felt that having more concubines could divert some of His Majesty's efforts from her, so that she would not be the only one to suffer from the clouds and rain.
Yin said, "If your Majesty likes it, you can stay." Her tone was soft, without any hint of displeasure.
His eyes darkened, and he looked under her cloak, "How can I reach Lingling?" Covered by the wide cloak, in the dark where no one could see, he lifted up her complicated skirt and pinched her legs.
of soft meat.
As if to remind her that he didn't like her answer.
She was induced to tremble slightly, grabbed his lapel, and tried her best to make her voice sound normal, "Although they are only attached to our court, they must treat each other with kindness. If Your Majesty refuses,
, I’m afraid it’s inappropriate.”
He condensed and used a little more force on his hands.
He's really got a lot of skills, so I'd like to talk things over with him.
A soft cry escaped from her lips and she quickly glanced down. Fortunately, no one noticed the strange thing here. She bit her lips tightly and suppressed all her gasps.
The exotic beauty underneath didn't hear the new emperor's voice for a long time. She raised her eyes uneasily, but she only dared to glance at his forged boots.
"The Four Emperors brother's palace is not prosperous, so why not take this beauty back with you." With one simple word, he sealed her fate.
Her heart sank. She came to Dawu to be a mother-in-law, but not to be a concubine for any prince. When she saw that Prince Jing who stood up to reply was not as handsome as the new emperor, she felt even more unwilling.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward." Prince Jing responded calmly, feeling slightly unhappy in his heart.
He also knew that the new emperor looked down upon him and it would not be easy to displease the envoy, so he gave it to him.
However, the number of heirs in Prince Jing's palace is scattered, not only because he has been away from home all year round, but also because the court guests in the family are jealous and cannot tolerate too many beautiful concubines. If this exotic beauty enters the palace, it will not be easy for him for a long time.
But he didn't care about this. Even if one day this beauty was tormented by the princess, his freshness should have passed long ago.
Jiang Qi looked up and down at the exotic beauty, staring at her until her face turned crimson. He smiled and turned to look at Prince Jing's face, which had changed several times, and the wine in his hand was swaying.
Seeing that the matter was accomplished, the envoy also bowed and left.
Jiang Huaiyang and Ruan Yuyi bit their ears and said, "If my Ling Ling is really so tolerant and righteous, why not show me the beauty later and choose a palace filled with ten or twenty people."
He sneered coldly and pinched her slender wrist, both as a compliment and as a threat.
She felt that she had said the wrong thing, lowered her eyes and climbed onto his neck, softly admitting her mistake.
But what I was thinking was - it's not bad at all.
After two or three envoys entered the ceremony, there was no sign of the Khitan envoys. The guards sent to the inn to investigate the situation came close and whispered a few words.
Jiang Huaiyang sneered, "Sleepy? I think they are greedy for the grand scenery of Dawu, and they are thinking about sleeping here forever."
The guard did not dare to say anything. Although Jiang Huaiyang spoke lightly, he only felt a chill running through his body. When the new emperor motioned for him to retreat, he felt as if he had been granted amnesty and hurriedly lowered his hands, staggering and almost falling.
Noticing that the new emperor looked worried, the dancers stopped and looked at each other, not knowing whether to continue.
Wen Fei glanced at his expression and hurriedly asked them to continue. Then the long sleeves were raised again, and the dancers moved more carefully to avoid making the new emperor more displeased.
Only Wen Pheasant understood what really made the new emperor angry.
The Khitan has been harassing and plundering the people on the border of the Wu Kingdom all year round. Although there has been no major war in recent years, small riots have continued. Although they came this time under the banner of peace talks with the Wu Kingdom, the people who came were only members of the Khitan royal family.
In recent years, the Khitan royal family has been in chaos due to the seizure of their direct descendants. Not to mention that the group that came this time may not necessarily represent the intentions of the entire Khitan in the future. Looking at the attitude of this envoy, there is no sincerity at all.
After about a cup of tea, the palace door was pushed open violently, interrupting the sound of silk and bamboo in the palace room.
The visitors were a few rough men dressed as barbarians. When they met the new emperor, they only performed their courtesy and said with a loud voice, "I have heard that Dawu is prosperous, especially in Beijing. These bamboo trees, mountains and rocks,
The pavilions, pavilions and railings are all things I don’t have in Khitan.
"Yesterday, we were greedy for the scenery and got tired from playing. As a result, we were tired today and missed the time. I hope the emperor is not to blame."
Even though he was speaking flattering words, his ambition was clear in his eyes. The way he mentioned the scenery in the palace was as if he was announcing that he was going to conquer in the near future.
Jiang Huaiyang was silent.
The atmosphere in the palace cooled down for a moment, and everyone in the audience lowered their voices and held their breaths, looking at their noses and noses and looking at their hearts.
