Xuanyuan Yue's eyes lit up and she sneered at the corner of her lips. She looked at Hua Shuxue who was sleeping on the bed. She stood up and walked to the screen to put on clothes. Then she walked out and ordered Ruyi: "Shou
Good princess."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Ruyi responded respectfully and did not dare to be careless.
Xuanyuan Yue led Du Jinghong out in big strides, and soon left the Baihua Pavilion. They were silent all night. When Hua Shuxue woke up the next day, she knew that the crown prince of the Xia Kingdom, Zhuge Ying, the crown prince of the Llan Kingdom, Bailitan, and the Yan Kingdom
One of the princes, Guan Jie, appeared in the Yun Kingdom and now lives in the Yun Kingdom's post palace.
It seems that just as Xuanyuan Yue guessed, the reason why these people stayed in the Yun Kingdom was because of Empress Ruan's upcoming birthday. Therefore, to the people of the Yun Kingdom, they were just guests, so there was no reason to expel the guests.
Hua Shuxue had just had breakfast after getting up. She was talking to Xiao Jiu'er in the main hall when a person burst in outside the door. It was Princess Nishang from the palace. When Xuanyuan Nishang saw Hua Shuxue, her lips curled up.
He stood up and sat down in the main hall.
Hua Shuxue looked at her. Even if she didn't speak, she knew that Nishang must have known about the appearance of Prince Bailitan in Yun Kingdom, so she was ready to make a move again, but Bailitan didn't like it.
She, no matter how eager she is, she can't force the cow to drink water.
Hua Shuxue called Ruyi and told her to take Xiaojiu down and talk to Xuanyuan Nishang herself.
"What's going on this early in the morning?"
"Your Majesty, did you know that Bailitan came to our Yun Kingdom? They came for the Queen Mother's birthday?"
After Xuanyuan Nishang finished speaking, she carefully looked at Hua Shuxue's expression, as if she was afraid that she would still have lingering feelings for Bailitan.
Hua Shuxue raised her eyebrows in a funny way and looked at Xuanyuan Nishang helplessly: "The princess seems to be thinking a little too much. What does his coming to our country of Yun have to do with the princess?"
"Don't they like him?"
Xuanyuan Nishang sat on the chair, looking at a pair of slender white fingers unwillingly. Because she thought of Bailitan's ruthlessness, her whole little face was a little clouded. She really didn't know how to make Bailitan like it.
She, logically speaking, a woman like her should be very lovable. She is beautiful and talented. Why is Bailitan different from other men? If she says to marry, how many people in the Yun Kingdom will
He can choose from all young talents, but he is different from others.
Hua Shuxue sincerely regarded Nishang as her younger sister, so she spoke with sincerity: "Nishang, it's not that the emperor is throwing cold water on you. Bailitan doesn't like anyone at the moment. All his thoughts are on Languo."
In matters of state, people like him are not people who love their children. They put the country first. If there is a conflict between the country and a woman, he will choose to give up the woman without hesitation. In this way, even if you marry him, you will not be married.
Will be happy."
Bailitan was considered a gentleman, so he had no intention of taking advantage of Xuanyuan Nishang. Otherwise, Nishang would have been doomed long ago. Maybe Bailitan was somewhat touched by her efforts, so he couldn't bear to hurt her.
Xuanyuan Nishang was silent for a long time before she said sadly: "Why is it so difficult for me to just like someone? Your Majesty, I'm really sad."
She grew up in the palace and didn't have the chance to feel much family affection, so she always wanted to find someone she really liked, but why was it so difficult? The emperor's brother used to be like her, but now he has found someone he likes.
So she was very happy, but why was her road to happiness so difficult?
"That's because you like someone you shouldn't like, and it's too late for you to stop now. If you really wait until you are hurt before you stop, you will be even more sad and desperate. In fact, just hide this feeling in your heart, isn't it?
Is it good too?"
Sometimes the first love that doesn't taste bad is also very beautiful. If one day you destroy it with your own hands, it will no longer be a good memory, and it may even make you miserable.
Xuanyuan Nishang hung her head in loneliness and could not say a word. Then she stood up and walked out in shock. Ruyi and others outside the door called out: "Princess."
Hua Shuxue wanted to call her, but she opened her mouth and then stopped. It was true that she should think about it seriously.
In the next three days, Hua Shuxue stayed in the mansion and lived a very comfortable life. Xuanyuan Yue was very busy. Now not only did King Xuan have to deal with him, but he also had to deal with the people of Xia Guoling, so he was rarely seen during the day.
However, at night, he would always come back to accompany Hua Shuxue. The two of them were very affectionate.
Three days passed quickly. That night, when Xuanyuan Yue came back, her whole body was cold and stern, her face was even more frosty, and her pupils were gloomy. As soon as she entered Baihua Pavilion, she saw Hua Shuxue and spoke anxiously.
: "Xue'er, let's go into the palace immediately to visit our mother."
"What's wrong with Queen Mother?"
Hua Shuxue raised her eyebrows strangely. Didn't Queen Ruan eat food and worship Buddha at Fengjian Temple? Could it be that something happened?
As a son, he is still concerned about what happened.
"I heard that she was assassinated on her way back to the palace."
"Assassination?"
Hua Shuxue's face turned cold. Who would assassinate Empress Ruan? Everyone in the Yun Kingdom knew that Empress Ruan was very powerful in martial arts, and there were masters hidden around her. Most people couldn't get close to her. Who could
He will assassinate her again. I'm afraid there is something famous here.
"Okay, let's go into the palace."
Hua Shuxue nodded, Xuanyuan Yue reached out and shook her hand, and the two of them led everyone from the Prince's Mansion into the palace.
When they entered Chunlan Palace, they found that there were many people in the palace. Prince Xuan and other princes from the royal family were all here. Even the concubines and concubines in the palace were here, but there was no emperor.
In the palace, the queen was leaning on the big mahogany bed with a pale face. She had no energy at all, as if she was really injured.
Princess Xuanyuan Nishang sat beside her and asked questions with concern, but Queen Ruan didn't answer her much.
As soon as Xuanyuan Yue entered the palace, she had already adjusted her mood. She seemed to be unhurried and very comfortable. In fact, only Hua Shuxue knew that he was worried about Empress Ruan before. He was just pretending to be fine now.
As soon as the two people entered the palace, everyone automatically moved aside.
Xuanyuan Yue said seductively: "Mother, can you tell who assassinated you?"
Hearing her son Xuanyuan Yue's question, Queen Ruan rarely opened her eyes a little, and said feebly: "There were so many people at that time, all with their faces covered. How could I see who was who? Anyway, those people
His skills are very powerful. Although I was lucky enough not to be injured, I was still frightened. Fortunately, someone passed by at the time and gave us a helping hand, so none of us were injured."
Hearing what she said, Xuanyuan Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at her mother's expression, she knew why she was so sad. She was assassinated by an assassin, and her father did not appear from the beginning to the end. Her mother, who loved her father, naturally felt sad.
, coupled with Han Ji and others looking like they were laughing, it probably made her even more unhappy.
"I will send someone to investigate this matter."
The cold air around Xuanyuan Yue's body made her face very cold, and the frightening light shone towards King Xuan and others not far away. King Xuan Yu and others were forced by Xuanyuan Yue's pressure and struggled a lot. Several princes came over to Queen Ruan and others.
Xuanyuan Yue said goodbye and retreated.
Concubine Ji and others saw their sons walking out, and followed closely to say goodbye to Queen Ruan and others, and then withdrew.
When Concubine Ji was about to leave, she quietly gouged out Hua Shuxue with her eyes, and then left with several concubines behind her.
Apart from Empress Ruan, only her two children, Xuanyuan Yue, Hua Shuxue and Xuanyuan Nishang were left in the palace.
Empress Ruan looked at Xuanyuan Yue, then remembered something, and slowly told the maid Wan'er on the side of the palace: "Go and invite the guests of this palace."
"Yes, empress."
The palace maid named Wan'er responded gently, and then walked out. In the palace, Hua Shuxue stepped forward and asked Queen Ruan with concern: "Mother, you can rest in peace and rest in peace. Xuanyuan will definitely find out about the assassin. If
Those people will never be spared if they are found out."
Originally, Hua Shuxue didn't want to offend others, but now that she's here, she can't make sense without saying a word. The woman lying on the bed is her mother-in-law.
However, after she spoke, Empress Ruan did not express anything. She looked at her directly, and then closed her eyes. She did not accept Hua Shuxue's concern at all. When Xuanyuan Nishang saw the expression on her mother's face, she couldn't help but sigh and look at the emperor*
*, Xuanyuan Yue's face turned a little cold, but at this moment, footsteps sounded outside the palace door.
Xuanyuan Yue, Hua Shuxue and others all looked up, and at a glance they saw a gentle man with rich black hair, light robes, and jade-like brilliance walking in from the door. He was as elegant as bamboo, dressed in black clothes.
Yuxiu is indescribably beautiful.
Several people in the dormitory were stunned at the same time, not because this person looked outstanding, but because he was someone they were very familiar with.
Xuanyuan Nishang cried out: "Nalanyou, what are you doing?"
The pupils of Xuanyuan Yue and Hua Shuxue were full of darkness. Xuanyuan Yue looked thoughtful, thinking about what the purpose of Nalan You was to get involved with his mother.
But Hua Shuxue was frightened. She knew very well why Nalanyou appeared here. He finally extended his hand of revenge to Yun Guo. How could Queen Ruan know his intentions? She wanted to endure it.
He kept asking: "Queen mother, who is he?"
When Empress Ruan heard what Hua Shuxue said, she became a little impatient and said directly: "I know that he once served as an aide to Baili Bing, King Su of the Lan Kingdom, and also served as a subordinate to the Crown Prince of Xia. He is just my subordinate."
He's just a guest. If it weren't for him, I and the others would have been injured. What's wrong with me keeping him in the palace for a few days? How is it appropriate to make such a fuss?"
After Ruan Hou scolded her, Xuanyuan Yue's face turned dark and she looked at Nalan You with a sinister look.
"Nalanyou, I don't know why you appear in Chunlan Palace, but I won't let you do whatever you want."
At this moment, Xuanyuan Yue did not know that Nalan You had any grudge against the Xuanyuan family. He only knew that Nalan You was a member of the Xia Kingdom Crown Prince Zhuge Ying. Now that he appeared in the palace, he must be seeking benefits for the Xia Kingdom Crown Prince.
So very angry.
Nalan You smiled warmly. Compared to Xuanyuan Yue's coldness, he looked even more gentle and jade-like. He was neither angry nor annoyed, showing the true qualities of a gentleman.
Empress Ruan frowned and gave an order coldly: "Okay, you can leave. This Young Master Nalan is a guest of this palace."
"Yes, Queen Mother."
Xuanyuan Yue and Hua Shuxue took the order and left the palace with ugly faces. When they passed by Nalan You, Nalan You's warm and dark pupils were full of gentle light. They looked at Hua Shuxue and soon
Then he turned his gaze and walked towards the big bed.
Xuanyuan Nishang saw that neither the emperor's brother nor the emperor's wife liked Nalanyou, and was very angry with him, so she glared at him bitterly, got up and left.
In the carriage leaving the palace, Xuanyuan Yue's face was always shrouded in dark clouds, and her pupils were bright and dim. Hua Shuxue stretched out her hand and held him tightly.
"Don't worry, didn't the Queen Mother say that Nalanyou is just a guest? A shrewd person like the Queen Mother will not be fooled anyway, so don't worry."
Xuanyuan Yue sighed. Maybe her mother and queen were shrewd in the past, but the expectations for her father over the years have slowly turned into resentment. He really doesn't know if she is as shrewd as before. What she has is just exhaustion.
Stili still has his stubbornness.
"I will pay attention to this person Nalanyou. It seems that I need to check this person carefully. He seems to be not as simple as he seems on the surface."
Hua Shuxue was a little frightened when she heard what he said. What would happen if Xuanyuan found out that she was Nalanyou's sister? What would happen if the two families were really enemies? She couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Sadly, Xuanyuan Yue on the side didn't know the worry in Hua Shuxue's heart. Seeing her lack of energy, she stretched out her arms and hugged her, sat on her lap, and motioned her to close her eyes and rest for a while: "You can sleep, I will take care of everything."
.”
Hua Shuxue closed her eyes as she was told, but couldn't sleep. She kept thinking whether she should tell Xuanyuan Yue about her relationship with Nalan You. If she told him, no one would know what would happen.
She knows, and she has no intention of recognizing Nalanyou.
In the end, he decided not to talk about it for the time being and rested against Xuanyuan Yue's chest.
Two days later it will be the Queen's 40th birthday. In previous years, the birthday party was just to hold a banquet in Chunlan Palace and invite the ladies into the palace to treat her to a banquet. This year, because the Queen was assassinated by an assassin, everyone suggested that
To make it more lively, they not only arranged the palace's singing and dancing, but also brought a group of actors from outside the palace into the palace. I heard that these actors were from the famous Su family troupe in Anling, and they had nearly a hundred playbooks in their hands.
This time, the Su Family Banquet was brought by King Xuan Yuan Yu as a gift to celebrate the Queen's birthday.
Early in the morning, Xuanyuan Yue and Hua Shuxue in the Prince's Mansion packed up and prepared to enter the palace. Today because of the Queen's birthday, there were too many people in the palace, so Hua Shuxue left Xiao Jiuer in the Prince's Mansion and ordered people to carefully
After taking care of it, the two of them took a jade Guanyin as a gift to the queen and went to the palace to celebrate the queen's birthday.
The streets were very lively with people coming and going, and there were also many carriages. They were carriages used by generals, ministers and kings from various families to enter the palace. Today is the Queen's birthday. Not only the ladies of the court, but also the high officials of the court are also in attendance.
The whole family went to the palace to have a banquet together.
Hua Shuxue glanced at the carriage outside. Just thinking about the gift to the queen was staggering.
No wonder Xuanyuan said that his mother had never seen anything good before. Thinking about it, all the ministers and princes of the royal family have tried their best to please the queen, so this gift is naturally all kinds of and colorful.
Because there were so many people, in addition to the guards in front of the outer palace gate, the Imperial Guards guarding the capital were also dispatched. There was a long line of people in front of the gate, who were registered one by one and then let in. When it was the turn of the Prince's Mansion's carriage
, those people naturally knew it and quickly let the carriage in.
In the open space in front of the Chunlan Palace, a high platform was built, one meter high, ten meters long and eight meters wide, for the opera troupe to sing.
In previous years, the Queen's birthday celebrations were just like an assembly line with nothing new at all, so this year when everyone saw the newly built stage, they felt it was novel.
The banquet was also arranged in the open space in front of the main hall. Because there were too many people, it could not be placed elsewhere. In addition, the high stage for singing opera could not be set up in the palace, so we finally got the Queen's idea and arranged it in the open space in front of the main hall.
Give a banquet.
Fortunately, the weather was sunny and cloudless that day, so having a banquet outside made it even more elegant.
In front of Chunlan Palace is a garden, next to it is a fish pond, surrounded by many tall green trees, which block a lot of sunlight, making it cool and brisk.
As soon as Xuanyuan Yue and Hua Shuxue arrived, the eunuch guarding the door called out: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, and the Crown Princess has arrived."
Immediately, everyone around the banquet hall in Chunlan all looked over. King Xuan and others led the people to welcome him. The ladies from Anling City also greeted Hua Shuxue, and soon the two of them were greeted by Hua Shuxue.
The two groups of people walked inside surrounded by each other.
Hua Shuxue was accompanied by Princess Gu from Prince Gu's Mansion and Princess Ming from Prince Ming's Mansion. In addition, the Prime Minister's wife and others also gathered around to talk nicely and flatter Hua Shuxue from her clothes to makeup, from makeup to
There is nothing bad about your manners, nothing imperfect.
However, today Hua Shuxue wore a bright red cloud dress with soft lines and unique design, which made her face smooth and white, making her even more radiant. Coupled with the confident and elegant way she moved her hands and feet, it was really eye-catching.
I really can’t find half of what I want to see.
Not only the concubines of various families, but also the men. Many young talents secretly looked at her with admiration. Unfortunately, the one in front of her was the Crown Princess of the East Palace. Even if she had admiration in her heart,
No one dared to even think about it.
Just when everyone was chatting lively, Xuanyuan Luo Ying, who had been very excited for a long time, couldn't help but lead people over. As soon as they met, she said with a thorn in her words: "Your Majesty, you are so gorgeous today.
Ah, you are so beautiful, I don’t know how many people’s attention you have attracted?”
Xuanyuan Luoying didn't know what jealousy was before, but since meeting this woman, she has been jealous all the time, because as long as she appears, her Xuanyuan Luoying does not exist in the eyes of others. How can this be done? She is
It's really annoying that the royal princess can't even compare to a concubine. Xuanyuan Luo Ying's eyes looked at General Murong Keng's son Murong Feng, and saw that Murong Feng was also paying attention to her, but didn't pay any attention to her.
Care about her.
The person Xuanyuan Luo Ying likes is Murong Feng, the son of General Murong Keng.
It's a pity that although Murong Feng is the son of a general, he doesn't like Xuanyuan Luo Ying. Moreover, Xuanyuan Luo Ying is the daughter of Concubine Ji. If Murong Feng wants to marry, he will marry Princess Xuanyuan Nichang.
Their two families have a legitimate relationship, so how can Xuanyuan Luoying compare to Xuanyuan Nishang.
However, after seeing Hua Shuxue, Murong Feng had to admit that there was another kind of woman in the world who was excellent both inside and outside. It was a pity that she was the Crown Princess of the Yun Kingdom and had no chance of being with him.
Murong Feng withdrew his gaze and talked to the people around him. He found that many of them were absent-minded. Most of them were secretly looking at the Crown Princess and couldn't help but utter a warning, because not everyone could remember Hua Shuxue.
Yes, don't ask for trouble.
Those young people who had other thoughts like Murong Feng quickly retracted their thoughts and focused on chatting.
On the woman's side, Hua Shuxue raised her eyebrows and looked at Princess Xuanyuan Luo Ying. She saw that Xuanyuan Luo Ying's originally delicate face was distorted by her jealousy. It was really off-putting. At this time, everyone around her was looking at her.
She, especially the people she knew very well, had a slightly gloomy look in their eyes.
At this time, Xuanyuan Nishang squeezed over. She had wanted to come over before, but the ladies from the boudoir in Anling City kept pulling her to talk, and finally managed to escape and come over. As soon as she came over, she had an angry look on her face.
Looking at Xuanyuan Luo Ying.
"Luo Ying, please pay attention to the tone of your words."
"What's wrong with the tone of my voice?"
When Xuanyuan Luo Ying saw Nishang helping Hua Shuxue, her face became more and more gloomy.
"It's like falling into a vinegar vat. It's too sour. Even if you know that you are inferior to others, you should hide this sourness in your heart. It would be better for you to express it directly."
Xuanyuan Nishang's impolite words rang out, and Xuanyuan Luo Ying's whole face turned pale. Many of the ladies surrounding him slightly opened their lips. Although they did not laugh directly, they
Xuanyuan Luo Ying still knew that others were laughing at her, so she couldn't help but get furious, and she rushed over and slapped Xuanyuan Nishang in her mouth.
At this moment, at the gate of Chunlan Palace, a eunuch's voice sounded: "The prince of Xia Kingdom has arrived, the prince of Lan Kingdom has arrived, and the prince of Yan Kingdom has arrived."
As soon as Xuanyuan Luo Ying heard about the arrival of the Prince of Lang Kingdom, she couldn't help but laugh in a strange way. Then she looked at Xuanyuan Nishang and said sarcastically: "Some people think that they are beautiful every day, but so what, they are not all unworthy.
I'm glad, I don't feel sorry for you."
After saying that, he seemed to find himself at the bottom of the steps, snorted coldly, turned around and left.
Hua Shuxue glared at Xuanyuan Luoying with her cold eyes, then looked at Xuanyuan Nishang, and saw that her eyes dimmed, and then she looked towards the door uncontrollably.
Hua Shuxue greeted the ladies around her, and those people dispersed. Hua Shuxue walked over to block Xuanyuan Nishang's sight, and slowly said: "Since you are trying to forget him, you must be firm.
If you know there is no hope, why should you continue to struggle painfully?"
Xuanyuan Nishang listened to Hua Shuxue's encouraging words, took a deep breath to adjust her breath, and then nodded vigorously: "Well, I understand, let's go aside and talk."
She stretched out her hand and pretended to pull Hua Shuxue's arm casually and walked towards a corner. However, Hua Shuxue still felt the tension in her arm and sighed in her heart. What's this? Luo Hua was so purposeful and ruthless.
The two people walked aside to talk. In the middle of the banquet space, Xuanyuan Yue led Xuan Wang Xuanyuan Yu and others to the front, greeted the Xia Crown Prince Zhuge Ying and others, and led the guests inside.
Temporary support at the door of the main hall
In one place, the eunuchs of Chunlan Palace were collecting the gifts from each family, registering them in a register, and then storing them in the treasury. Prince Zhuge Ying of the Xia Kingdom and others naturally came to celebrate the queen's birthday, and they would definitely not come empty-handed. The gifts presented by each family
All are valuable.
The banquet became more and more lively, with crowds of people gathering together to talk. The men gathered together to discuss important national affairs, while the women gathered together to discuss clothes and jewelry. Those rich ladies who were about to be married,
We gathered together to discuss men. At today's banquet, there were many young talents, plus the princes of the royal family, and now there are also people such as Zhuge Ying, the crown prince of the Xia Kingdom, and Bailitan, the crown prince of the Llan Kingdom, making men more and more mature.
The flash object.
The black pupils of Zhuge Ying, the prince of Xia Kingdom opposite, glanced around casually, and then saw Hua Shuxue who was talking to Princess Xuanyuan Nishang of Yun Kingdom in the corner. Seeing Hua Shuxue today, Zhuge Ying's pupils
It was deep and quiet, there was a little sparkle in the eyes, and I couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed in my heart. It turned out that the real Hua Shuxue turned out to be such a graceful and jade-colored beauty.
, not only her appearance is first-class, but her whole body is also first-class, and her inner abilities are not comparable to ordinary women. No wonder Xuanyuan Yue was willing to use her own planned things in exchange for letting Hua Shuxue go. It seems that at that time
, he knew that Hua Shuxue was a charming beauty. If he had known it at that time, he would never give up.
Zhuge Ying thought about it, and the expression on his face was unpredictable. He looked up at Bailitan next to him and followed his line of sight. He saw a bright and dazzling flower and sparse snow. Bailitan's heart also changed.
sink, fall to the bottom.
Xuanyuan Yue couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed when she saw their expressions, but she didn't forget to say hello to them.
"That is my princess, and we are old acquaintances of you."
As he spoke, he waved to a palace maid behind him and ordered her to invite the Crown Princess over.
The palace maid responded, turned around and walked towards Hua Shuxue. She quickly walked up to Hua Shuxue and bowed respectfully: "I have seen the Crown Princess."
Hua Shuxue nodded and said calmly: "Get up."
The palace maid nodded, and then said respectfully: "Your Highness, please come over."
"Oh," Hua Shuxue nodded, looked up, and saw Xuanyuan Yue, Bailitan, and others looking at her together. A cold light flashed through her pupils. For Bailitan, she
Fortunately, she didn't have the slightest favorable impression of Zhuge Ying.
But since Xuanyuan Yue ordered someone to come over, he must have asked her to say hello. In any case, it is true that they are old acquaintances. Thinking of this, Hua Shuxue and Xuanyuan Nishang beside her said hello, and then went to Xuanyuan Yue's house.
Walking around, Xuanyuan Nishang had made up her mind to forget Bailitan, so she would not go forward to join in the fun. If it was normal, she would have stepped forward regardless of her own safety.
At this time, many people looked here, staring at Hua Shuxue, and saw her walking past the crowd to the side of Prince Xuanyuan Yue and others.
Everyone quietly paid attention to the movement here. Xuanyuan Yue saw Hua Shuxue coming over, and a smile appeared on her lips unconsciously. Her face was as radiant as jade. She stretched out her hand and took Hua Shuxue's hand.
Not shying away from the good relationship between the two, he introduced Zhuge Ying and Bailitan to Hua Shuxue with a smile.
"Xue'er, these are old acquaintances. You have to say hello to them, otherwise they will say you are rude."
There was a hint of pride and arrogance in Xuanyuan Yue's words. Zhuge Ying's pupils darkened, and he thought hard in his heart. He knew that Xuanyuan Yue always had a purpose in doing things. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. He is obviously a flower.
The beautiful girl who looked like jade was accidentally lost by them.
On one side of Bailitan, looking at the flowers and snow so pure and clear, I felt sad and didn't say a word.
Hua Shuxue looked at the three people opposite with an elegant smile: "Welcome the Crown Prince of the Xia Kingdom, the Crown Prince of the Lang Kingdom, and the Prince of the Yun Kingdom. I hope that today's birthday of the Queen Mother will allow you all to have a happy return."
The leisurely and elegant charm, like the beginning of orchids, and the indescribable splendor, not only the prince of Xia Kingdom and others, but also Xuanyuan Yu and others of the royal family of Yun Kingdom could not help but be distracted by the sight, and they felt annoyed in their hearts.
I didn't expect that all the good things would fall on Xuanyuan Yue's head. It was really hateful.
Although Prince Zhuge Ying and others of the Xia Kingdom felt unwilling to do so, they did not show any signs of it in front of Hua Shuxue. They smiled and nodded: "The Crown Princess is so magnificent and magnificent, and she is no longer the same as before."
"I accept the auspicious words from the Crown Prince of Xia."
Hua Shuxue spoke in a neither humble nor overbearing tone. As she was talking here, outside the main hall of Chunlan Palace, the eunuch's voice sounded again: "The emperor has arrived."
Since Empress Ruan was assassinated, this is the first time that Emperor Wenshun has set foot in the Chunlan Kingdom. If today was not the birthday of Empress Ruan, and people from the Xia and Lan States, as well as ministers and princes and princesses from the royal family were present,
Emperor Wenshun did not intend to come. He had not come every year in the past, but this year was an exception.
As soon as the eunuch called, in front of the Chunlan Palace, everyone looked over quickly. Xuanyuan Yue took Hua Shuxue and led all the princes of the Yun Kingdom to come forward to pay their respects to Emperor Wenshun.
"My sons and ministers respectfully welcome my father and wish him well."
The ministers and concubines on both sides stood up one after another, lined up on both sides, and at the same time saluted and said: "Welcome the emperor, and wish the emperor good health."
"Everyone, get up."
Emperor Wenshun nodded, and Xuanyuan Yue and others stepped aside. Emperor Wenshun kept walking in, and stopped when he passed by the Crown Prince of Xia Zhuge Ying and others, and looked at the Crown Prince of Xia and others with a smile.
Prince Zhuge Ying, Bailitan and others turned slightly sideways and said calmly: "I have met Emperor Wenshun."
"Well, I didn't expect that the Queen's small birthday would actually help the Xia Kingdom and the Lan Kingdom. It seems that the reputation of our Yun Kingdom is at its peak."
Emperor Wenshun's words had a profound meaning. Zhuge Ying's eyes were deep and dark. It seemed that Emperor Wenshun was not as gentle and harmless as he seemed on the surface. I am afraid that this person was not a simple character.
The eunuch had already reported Emperor Wenshun's visit to the Chunlan Palace to Empress Ruan, so when Emperor Wenshun reached the head of the palace, Empress Ruan led the people in. As soon as she walked in, everyone hurriedly saluted the empress.
: "I have met the Queen."
Empress Ruan nodded and motioned for everyone to sit down. Xuanyuan Yue, Hua Shuxue and others also stepped forward and bowed. Empress Ruan only nodded briefly and motioned for them to stand up. She led Nalan You and a group of palace maids and eunuchs behind her.
, stepped forward and saluted Emperor Wenshun: "I have met the emperor."
Emperor Wenshun had a rare gentle expression on his face. He nodded slightly and signaled Empress Ruan to stand up and sit down.
The emperors, emperors, and concubines all came, and finally even Concubine Ji and other concubines from the palace arrived, and everyone came.
Everyone sat in their respective seats. The guests of the Yun Kingdom, Prince Lang of the Xia Kingdom, and others naturally sat at the top, and then the Crown Prince of the Yun Kingdom Xuanyuan Yue and other members of the royal family also sat in the front. Nalan You, because he was
The queen's guests were seated near the front, and the remaining ministers were the court's ministers. After queuing up, the whole place was filled with people.
There were two rows of desks on both sides. Two people were paired up. Some people with low official positions sat far away and out of sight, right next to the high stage where the opera was performed.
Empress Ruan seemed to be a little happy today. She looked at the people below the palace, and her cold voice in the past was filled with rare joy.
"Today is my birthday. Unexpectedly, I have worked hard for the people of Xia and Lan countries. I would like to express my deep gratitude."
Prince Zhuge Ying of the Xia Kingdom, Crown Prince of the Lan Kingdom, and a prince of the Yan Kingdom simultaneously raised their wine glasses and looked at the emperor: "I and others wish the Queen long life and eternal youth."
After saying that, the three of them drank the wine in their glasses. Empress Ruan also raised her glass and took a sip. Then she looked down at her son and the princes and princesses of the royal family: "Every prince and princess, too.
Are you interested?"
Xuanyuan Yue and others hurriedly stood up, and Hua Shuxue also stood up. They all held wine glasses and looked at the queen who was sitting at her head: "I wish my mother (the queen) may live longer than Nanshan Mountain and be as blessed as the East China Sea."
Then everyone drank the wine in the glass together. Xuanyuan Yue remembered that Hua Shuxue could not drink, and was about to ask her to drink less. Who knew that she actually did it? She couldn't help but glared at her, and Hua Shuxue vomited.
tongue, and then followed Xuanyuan Yue and sat down, her pretty and playful movements fell into the eyes of others, and many people became jealous. Who said that men are not jealous or jealous, but they just don't see good things.
Queen Ruan motioned for everyone to sit down, and then gave an order, and the banquet officially began.
First, the palace singer performed a birthday dance, and the ministers below began to toast to the emperor and the queen. The emperor and the queen only drank a little, and then ordered these ministers to toast more to the guests such as the Crown Prince of Xia Kingdom and the Crown Prince Lang.
After the order was issued, those ministers in the court would not obey it. For a time, the entire banquet became very lively, and many people brought wine to toast to Prince Xia and others.
Fortunately, their drinking capacity is good, otherwise they would not be able to bear it today.
Xuanyuan Yue sat on the desk and leaned into Hua Shuxue's ear to warn her not to drink anymore. She drank the previous drink too quickly and he couldn't stop her, but she couldn't drink anymore after that.
He knew how much alcohol he had.
The two people talked carefully, attracting countless envious looks.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Empress are so loving.
However, there are also many people who are jealous of the spiteful light, such as Concubine Ji and others. The people of the Prince's Mansion have repeatedly dealt with people of the Han family. Concubine Ji is not to mention angry. Han Jian is her nephew, but she didn't expect it.
The people from the Prince's Mansion reported him to the government office. Although he was not imprisoned, he was beaten thirty times and was almost disabled. The people from the Prince's Mansion didn't take the Han family seriously at all. It's so hateful.
.
After the first round of birthday dances, there are performances by some of the ministers and daughters of the DPRK. These daughters of the DPRK ministers have long been preparing to show up at this birthday. This time every year is their opportunity, so every year
, everyone will prepare carefully at home.
In previous years, this day would always bring about many good marriages. But this year, I don’t know what happened. In addition to the famous princes of the Yun Kingdom, there were also the Crown Prince of the Xia Kingdom and others. These beauties even used all their tricks to perform on the stage.
To be honest, these people performed really well, and everyone was of a high standard, so the people at the banquet were enjoying the singing and dancing while enjoying the wine, and Hua Shuxue was also the one who ate with gusto and watched with great interest.
While having lunch, she enjoyed singing and dancing. When she saw something good, she clapped her hands twice symbolically.
Xuanyuan Yue took good care of Hua Shuxue, and was not interested in the singing and dancing on the stage at all. His constant consideration and concern made many people around them notice them, and everyone knew that Xuanyuan Yue always did whatever he wanted and didn't care about others at all.
Hua Shuxue was focused on the singing and dancing on the high platform, so she did not notice the movements of the people around her.
But others didn't think so, and they sighed in their hearts. His Highness dotes on the Crown Princess to the bone. You can see how carefully he takes care of her.
Queen Ruan, who was on the high platform, also noticed the movement here. She didn't like Hua Shuxue to begin with. Looking at her arrogant son, who usually ignored her, he didn't expect to be so attentive now.
He took care of a woman, but the woman looked as if nothing had happened. When the prince was waiting on her, she still looked as if nothing had happened.
The anger in Ruan Hou's chest burst out, and Emperor Wenshun beside her also noticed what was going on here and saw Xuanyuan Yue's actions. He seemed to see himself when he was young. He was not angry at Xuanyuan Yue's behavior.
Instead, he felt closer to Xuanyuan Yue than ever before. Because he hated Empress Ruan, he couldn't say anything about this son.
Like it or hate it, the most important thing is that he is capable, so he just opens one eye and closes the other and lets him get ahead. Sometimes I even think that he is like Queen Ruan, a bit ruthless and cold-blooded, but now I see
When he saw Xuanyuan Yue, a faint smile appeared on his lips. Yue'er was his son after all, Emperor Wenshun felt.
The singing and dancing lasted for an hour before stopping. Originally, Princess Luo Ying also wanted to perform on the stage, but seeing that the women on the stage were performing extremely well, she was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so she did not go on stage in the end. As for Xuanyuan Nishang before
She likes to attract attention because she wants to attract Bailitan's attention, but now she has decided to forget about Bailitan, so how can she perform on stage?
The second round of singing and dancing performances was also over. Everyone was full of wine and food. The maids in Tsing Yi came up with tea and took away the things from the banquet.
Next came the time to enjoy tea and listen to the opera. However, after such a long time, many people could not sit still. Some people wanted to go out to pay respects, and some people wanted to take a walk, so they stood up and went to the Emperor and the Queen.
After resigning, the queen announced a quarter-hour pause to allow everyone to take part in their activities.
At this time, the leader of Su's class took the play book in his hand and asked the emperor and queen to order a play.
Empress Ruan took the opera booklet from the eunuch and handed it to Emperor Wenshun beside him, signaling Emperor Wenshun to click on it first. However, Emperor Wenshun did not click on it, but ordered the eunuch to pass the opera booklet to Zhuge, the crown prince of Xia Kingdom.
In the hands of Ying and others, each guest is asked to order a play first.
Ruan Hou's face became a little cold, and her eyes were also filled with coldness. She leaned on the phoenix chair without saying a word. Concubine Ji, who was sitting below her, had a smile on her lips and said with fake concern:
"Sister, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Have you not recovered yet?"
She was referring to the fact that Empress Ruan was assassinated by an assassin two days ago. How could Empress Ruan not understand that she was mocking herself? She gave Concubine Ji a fierce look, and then looked at Emperor Wen Shun beside her, feeling heartbroken.
I felt a little resentful, but didn't say anything.
At the banquet, Xuanyuan Nishang came over and took Hua Shuxue out for a walk. After walking around, she felt that the depression in her heart did not get better, but became more and more depressed. Finally, Xuanyuan Nishang decided not to go back to the banquet. Anyway, she
I wasn't interested in listening to those dramas, so I might as well go back to the palace to rest. With that in mind, I said hello to Hua Shuxue and went back to my palace.
Ruyi invited Hua Shuxue back to the banquet, and a few people walked back. Not long after they left, they saw a person walking towards them, it was Empress Ruan's distinguished guest Nalanyou. Nalanyou saw Hua Shuxue walking over.
, did not avoid her, but instead came towards her. The reason why he came out was because he wanted to see her.
I didn't expect that she would be so beautiful in women's clothing. In my memory, even my mother was not so outstanding. She seemed to have combined all the advantages of her father and mother, that's why she was so outstanding.
"Xue'er, why did you do this?"
Nalan You spoke sadly, with the pain of no choice in his eyes.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Hua Shuxue knew what he meant. He asked her why she did this. She knew that the Xuanyuan family had a grudge against their Nalan family, but she still got involved with Xuanyuan Yue. This made him very happy.
Heartache.
Hua Shuxue saw that he was sad and didn't know what to say for a moment. He thought of what happened in the secret room of Fengwu Villa. After all, he still thought that she was his sister, because she was his sister, so he would rather destroy the years of careful preparation.
He wanted to save her, so now she couldn't harden her heart and say she hated him, but when she thought that the person he was dealing with was Xuanyuan Yue, she felt that she had no choice, she would definitely stand by Xuanyuan Yue's side.
Thinking about it, he spoke slowly: "If you give up the hatred in your heart, I will forgive you."
She then recognized him as her brother, and it was actually good to have such an outstanding brother like him.
After Hua Shuxue finished speaking, she walked over, and Nalanyou behind her was completely petrified. What did Xueer mean by this? Do you want him to give up revenge and let these people in Yun Kingdom go? How is this possible? They
It wasn't just their family that was killed. How could we not avenge those blood feuds?
Hua Shuxue led Ruyi and Hongluan, the two maids, and walked in. At this time, those who had gone out for a walk had basically come back, and the actors on the stage had already dressed up and performed on the stage.
This performance was ordered by Zhuge Ying, the crown prince of the Xia Kingdom, and is called "Drunken with Golden Boughs". The costume is very lifelike and the singing skills are also excellent. No wonder the Su Family Troupe is famous in Anling City. It is indeed well-founded.
The costume of a drunken man with a golden branch was really flawless and smooth. Many people who loved to listen to operas were fascinated, and some even shook their heads and hummed softly.
However, listening to operas was not Hua Shuxue's hobby. She felt a little drowsy. She almost fell asleep when the set of "Drunk and Beating the Golden Bough" was finished, and her saliva almost flowed out.
The second play is "One Hundred and Eight Generals" ordered by Baililan, the prince of the Llan Kingdom. It is a fighting play. Although it is very good, Hua Shuxue wants to sleep even more, leaning on Xuanyuan Yue's shoulder.
He said feebly: "I can't just sit here and listen to it all afternoon. I'm so tired."
This opera is very slow and long. If you listen to it like this for an afternoon, you may not be able to listen to it a few times.
Seeing her angry and funny expression, Xuanyuan Yue couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pull her onto his lap: "How about you lie on my lap and sleep for a while."
Hua Shuxue agreed upon hearing this. How many people were looking at them at the banquet right now? If she slept on the prince's lap, she would be drowned by how much saliva she would have, so in order to avoid being drowned, she still endured it.
As the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard the singing voice on the stage suddenly lengthen: "Ah, Dai Li listens to the order."
This voice was deep in the mouth and penetrated the whole audience. As soon as they heard it, they knew that it was someone with internal skills. The two of them couldn't help but turn around and looked over, and saw some generals singing on the high platform.
At this time, there were many costumed actors standing on the high platform, listening respectfully to the person singing the song.
Hua Shuxue looked a little uninterested. Not only she, but many people at the banquet were also uninterested. Except for the elderly ministers who liked watching the play, others didn't like the play at all, but they didn't like it at all.
The Crown Prince Baili Tan also watched with great interest, which shows that his character is different from ordinary people.
Emperor Wenshun on the high platform narrowed his eyes slightly and almost fell asleep. Empress Ruan on the side looked at him resentfully from time to time.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Yue and Hua Shuxue heard the screams of many people on the stage. They all looked over and saw the actors standing on the high platform before. Two of them were holding sharp blades burning with cold air.
Approaching Emperor Wenshun, they were divided into two directions, both of them had excellent skills.
Extremely powerful, especially Qinggong, he was in front of Emperor Wenshun in the blink of an eye. At this time, Emperor Wenshun was so stunned that he did not react for a moment. When Xuanyuan Yue saw it, he jumped into the air and struck at the two assassins. Unfortunately,
Finally, he was a step too late, and the assassin was already in front of Emperor Wenshun.
Queen Ruan, who had been sitting on one side looking resentfully at Emperor Wenshun, suddenly moved and rushed forward like a whirlwind, blocking Emperor Wenshun's face. One of the assassins' sharp blade pierced her.
Her shoulder blades hurt so much that she gasped
He shouted, and at this time, the Xuanyuan Yue people had arrived, with bloodlust all over their body, their eyes were red, and with a sharp move of both palms, they hit the assassin's left shoulder and right shoulder with two snaps. If he didn't want to capture him alive,
Yes, he had already slapped them to death.
The assassin was knocked out, and Xuanyuan Yue shouted angrily: "Come here, arrest the assassin."
Soon, guards flashed over and surrounded the two assassins. At the same time, King Xuan and others also woke up and immediately ordered people to arrest everyone in the Su family class and wait for disposal.
Emperor Wenshun was not frightened in any way, and calmly ordered the eunuch: "Come, Dr. Xuan."
