As the time gets later and later, more and more people gather here. But if you look closely, you will find that not all of this crowded crowd are ordinary people watching the fun, there are many
A member of the court in disguise.
Xi Honglei and the other two people paid close attention to the officers and soldiers who, despite taking off their official uniforms, were still walking among the lively crowd with weapons in their hands. Their eyes were constantly scanning the surroundings, looking for any suspicious persons.
"It seems that the emperor really wants to come here, otherwise he wouldn't be so cautious." Bai Hanyi put his chin in his hand and said leisurely to Bai Moyue and Xi Honglei.
"I think the emperor is not the only one attending, the prince may also come." Xi Honglei followed up Bai Hanyi's words and expressed his opinion. "Look at this posture, let alone an assassin, I'm afraid he just wants to show up in the streets.
The little gangsters who make trouble with their mouths will be arrested immediately. But it is right to think about it. Although the prince is young, he is also the prince who will inherit the throne in the future. The two emperors appear together. What is really wrong? These people are
It’s not enough to take the entire family’s heads with me.”
"Hong Lei is right, but seeing so many people, let's just sit here and relax for a while. It's so crowded that we can't see much." Bai Moyue nodded and whispered: "Wait a minute.
As soon as we see the emperor's grace, we can go back to the general's mansion."
Xi Honglei and Bai Hanyi agreed to Bai Moyue's proposal in unison, drinking tea, chatting, watching the excitement, and waiting for the emperor to show up. Everything seemed to be going on in an orderly manner, until they saw something they shouldn't have seen
people.
"Hong Lei, look who is that?" The sharp-eyed Bai Moyue suddenly flashed his eyes, then opened his eyes wide and looked somewhere motionless.
Xi Honglei and Bai Hanyi followed her line of sight and saw that there were many more people on the tower. And in front of them was the emperor they had met when they entered the palace a few days ago.
The queen, and Mu Yunmeng.
Wearing a white robe, as elegant as a lotus. Next to the emperor and queen wearing a dragon robe and a phoenix, Mu Yunmeng's presence seems to attract more attention. Under the silvery white moonlight, his figure is as long as an ink painting, and his hair is as long as an ink painting.
With her hair as sharp as a knife, with her hands behind her back, she looked down at everything at her feet, and from time to time she said something to the emperor beside her.
Xi Honglei was not too close to him, but she was certain that that person was Mu Yunmeng.
"Do you know this?" Xi Honglei looked at Bai Hanyi erratically. After seeing Bai Hanyi shaking his head with an innocent face, Xi Honglei smiled slightly and stood up. "Next time, I will give you information."
If you make a mistake, I will never forgive you."
"Honglei, where are you going?" Bai Moyue also got up following Honglei, but she didn't know where she was going.
"Go back to the General's Mansion. Since they have arrived, something might go wrong. It's always good to make more preparations."
Xi Honglei left without looking back until she entered the General's Mansion and arrived at the other courtyard where they lived.
"Yunmeng is here, and Yang Xiang must be nearby." Xi Honglei slowed down and warned Bai Moyue in a low voice. "You know his temper and temperament. Maybe he is monitoring this general now.
If I find out what Wen Zimo means to you, I'm afraid he will do something, so you must be cautious."
"I see."
Speaking of Yang Xiang, Bai Moyue also had a headache. He and Xi Honglei went back to their respective rooms. As expected, less than an hour later, something happened.
"Enter the palace? Now?" Xi Honglei looked at Wen Zimo and Bai Hanyi who appeared in her room with a surprised look on her face. She pretended to trim her hair. She asked in confusion: "What's so urgent?"
"The Emperor has summoned you. You'd better tidy it up." Wen Zimo looked at Xi Honglei's messy hair, thought for a moment, and said, "I'll give you time, but be quick."
Xi Honglei quickly freshened up and then followed Wen Zimo into the palace. Of course, Bai Moyue was also accompanying him.
When several people arrived at the palace, it was already too early. In the splendid palace, there was singing and dancing, and it was very lively. Several people came in through the unobtrusive side door, and after Wen Zimo told Bai Hanyi and others a few words, he
Let them wait where they are, and then walk in the direction of the emperor.
"Isn't this posture because of Yunmeng?" Bai Moyue looked around and said suspiciously.
"It's possible." Mu Yunmeng suddenly appeared. Xi Honglei didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. Now he could only cooperate with him according to circumstances.
Wen Zimo walked for a while and then came back, dragging Bai Moyue to his side. Wen Zimo said to Bai Hanyi and Xi Honglei: "There are so many people here now because they want to hear you two play a song.
You yourself know how your performance will affect you, whether good or bad."
"Look at what the general said, it seems like we really have the ability to invite so many princes and ministers." Xi Honglei curled her lips and did not appreciate Wen Zimo's polite words. "Whether you play well or not depends on the general.
Your reputation. You invited us all the way from Xixi Country, how can we embarrass you?"
"It's good to know. If you mess up, I can't spare you." Xi Honglei's shrewdness made Wen Zimo surprisingly not angry. He smiled and threatened Xi Honglei softly, but the consequences could be imagined.
of.
"General, don't scare me. I was fine at first, but after listening to the general's words, my hands became a little soft." Xi Hongtear accepted Wen Zimo's words with a half-smile, and then took the piano from Bai Moyue's hand.
The appearance of Xi Honglei and Bai Hanyi caused many people to start whispering among themselves. It also made some people realize that something was not quite right.
"This..." Pan Wenning looked at Xi Honglei who suddenly appeared in the palace, and was almost dumbfounded. Turning to look at Mu Yunmeng beside him, Pan Wenning asked in surprise: "Your Majesty, isn't this the princess?"
Although the scene was not quiet, Pan Wenning's words were still heard by some people. Everyone turned their attention to Mu Yunmeng, wanting to see how the prince who had come from afar would respond.
Mu Yunmeng sat in his seat, narrowed his eyes and glanced at Pan Wenyu, and then looked at Xi Honglei, who had already sat down and was adjusting the strings of the piano. By chance, Xi Honglei raised his head, and the two of them
Their eyes met in the sky.
"You are wrong." Mu Yunmeng answered Pan Wenning's question with a smile on her lips, "Although this woman is somewhat similar to my wife, she cannot be her. Wen Ning, you haven't seen the princess in several years.
The eyes are really not as good as before."
Did he really see it wrong? Listening to Mu Yunmeng's words, Pan Wenning nodded and smiled in apology, but his mind was still on the red tears. The exact same face made Pan Wenning a little confused, but Mu Yunmeng himself said it was not the case, he
What can I say?
Mu Yunmeng's answer was expected by many people. How could a martial artist be the concubine of Prince Xixi? No matter how famous she was, it was impossible.
Everyone laughed softly and didn't take this matter to heart. After Xi Honglei listened to their conversation attentively, he also vaguely guessed some of Mu Yunmeng's little thoughts.
Xi Honglei lowered his head and said nothing, no longer looking at anyone else. When Bai Hanyi's piano played over there, Xi Honglei also joined him and played a piece of music that the two of them had just composed.
The melodious and smooth sound of the piano floated into people's ears, and the novel melody made them still have something to say after the song ended. Even the aloof emperor smiled with satisfaction and took the lead in giving applause and cheers.
"As expected of the person General Wen specially found, he is really different." Yin Shangyu smiled and praised Wen Zimo, but his eyes did not leave after falling on the face that was full of red tears.
The hot gaze naturally made people think of something. Xi Honglei scolded the emperor in her heart while smiling charmingly, catering to Yin Shangyu's gaze.
Xi Honglei's smile made some people feel uncomfortable. After seeing such a scene, those concubines in the harem who were sitting next to the emperor all secretly cursed her for being a coquettish person. But Xi Honglei herself did not
Don't care.
Xi Honglei was called out by Yin Shangyu alone, so he had to stand up and became the focus of everyone. Under Mu Yunmeng's gaze, Xi Honglei was calm and composed. After finally getting rid of the current situation and being able to escape, Xi Honglei
But they found that Bai Moyue was missing.
"Where are the people?" Xi Honglei looked around, "Why is Wen Zimo missing?"
"Maybe you took her back first?"
"Impossible." Bai Hanyi's guess was dismissed by Xi Honglei as soon as he said it. "With so many people here, it's impossible for Wen Zimo to go back by himself. Besides, what is his identity? He is the future consort.
Neither the master nor the princess..."
Just as Xi Honglei was talking, she realized that Yin Limo was also missing.
What kind of trick were these three people playing when they disappeared together? Xi Honglei and Bai Hanyi exchanged glances with each other, frowned and strode out of the palace.
Bai Moyue stood in the corner, feeling a little aggrieved. The presence of Wen Zimo and Yin Limo in front of her made her extremely uncomfortable. But the two people didn't care about her situation at all, and they talked about their marriage so harshly.
Come, and Bai Moyue naturally becomes the vixen in Yin Limo's eyes.
The two people's words were fierce, and Bai Moyue was helpless. With her body pressed against the cold wall, Bai Moyue listened to Wen Zimo's defense of herself, and wanted to persuade him not to do this. But until Yin Limo left in anger, Wen Zimo did not
I want to catch up.
"General, this is your fault." Bai Moyue looked at Yin Limo's retreating back and sighed softly. "I don't know if the princess is good or not, but I can see that she is devoted to the general.
Even if the general cannot marry the princess, he will still have to look up and see each other in the future. Haven't you considered your future situation?"
