The banquet began, with people drinking wine, guzhengs playing, bells tinkling, and the sound of silk and bamboo playing. A group of dancing girls floated slowly into the inner hall with light steps.
Everyone had a fan in their hands, and each was dressed cooler than the other. Except for a piece of gauze covering the shameful area, the rest of the room was really white and exposed in the air, which made all the ministers' eyes widen.
Mu Tianxue lowered his eyes and looked at the dancers entering the palace, curious in his heart. During the Dragon Boat Festival, singing and dancing are naturally indispensable, but are the costumes of these dancers too unrestrained?
The dancer has a humble status in the palace, and it is not surprising that she wears clothes that show off her skin. However, looking at the dancer's enchanting dance, Her Majesty's dress is too large. It is almost the same as the pole dancer in the bar.
Same, it's so cool that it makes men sweat.
She glanced at Long Chenyi beside her, and saw that his face was solemn, as if he was bored, and he obviously had no interest in His Highness's singing and dancing. Seeing her eyes looking over, he gave her a meaningful smile while holding a golden goblet.
.
She smiled slightly, raised her wine glass to clink with him, her phoenix robe sleeves blocked the view of the people below, raised her neck and drank the wine in the glass, looked at him and whispered: "My dear, I have no interest in this banquet...
."
Before Mu Tianxue finished speaking, Prime Minister Han, who was lowering his head at the head of the hall, stood up with his arms raised, paid respect to Long Chenyi and Mu Tianxue, and said: "I would like to apologize to the Emperor and the Queen. Previously, the old minister was out of
Because of my injury, I was unable to attend the ceremony to pay homage to the Empress. It is really a crime committed by an old minister. I hope the Empress will forgive me."
Mu Tianxue's eyes were squinting at Prime Minister Han who was standing with his arms raised below, and she quickly glanced at the two people beside her. One was about forty years old, plump and graceful, and the other was seventeen years old and born.
Her peach-cheeked and apricot-faced face was fragrant and tender, and her eyes were looking at her in astonishment, with a look of suspicion on her face.
She smiled faintly at Han Yuning, who was looking at her. Her dazzling beauty captivated people's hearts. All the courtiers and women below could not help but feel cold. From the beginning of the banquet, everyone's eyes were cast on her.
She always turned a blind eye.
"Please forgive me? Prime Minister Han is an important minister in the court and the most powerful right-hand man of the emperor. How dare I punish you?" Mu Tianxue moved his eyes to Prime Minister Han. He said he was asking for forgiveness, but why did he do it standing up?
?
Her tone was extremely calm, like a pool of calm and helpless water, with a slight smile on her face, but in the ears of everyone below, they felt inexplicably depressed, and there was a chill in their hearts.
Prime Minister Han was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that Mu Tianxue would be so shameless in front of all the officials, his face suddenly turned pale and ugly, and the atmosphere of His Highness was awkward and depressing for a while, everyone's eyes were on him.
He raised his glass and raised his eyes, and his expression quickly returned to his previous state, "I am a minister and loyal to the emperor. It is my duty to serve the emperor and care for the country and the people. The Queen is the mother of a country. Her mother honors the world. I dare not be presumptuous. I would like to express my special condolences to the emperor."
Please forgive me, please punish me."
Mu Tianxue curled her lips and sneered, with contempt in her black eyes like splashing ink, "Prime Minister Han came to the Jinluan Palace to give his advice to death. When I heard this, I was very pleased. It is indeed a great honor for the dynasty to have such a loyal and benevolent prime minister."
You are a blessing to the people of this dynasty. I should praise you, but how can I punish you? Come and give wine to Prime Minister Han."
Prime Minister Han's face turned green and white. Regarding the incident at the Golden Palace, the entire palace and even the people of the dynasty knew that he strongly opposed the emperor's canonization of Mu Tianxue as queen.
A woman's reputation is extremely elusive from the canonization ceremony.
At the moment, Mu Tianxue had something to say, but it was to embarrass her in front of everyone sitting here. This gift was just a slap in his face. But as a very human minister, he could only thank him. After leaving his seat, he
When he came to the front of the palace, he knelt down and said majestically: "Old minister, I would like to thank the Queen for the reward."
Qingzhu came to Prime Minister Han with a wine pot with a golden faucet, poured Sanhuai wine in front of everyone, Feng came to Prime Minister Han and said, "Please, Prime Minister."
Prime Minister Han had a very ugly old face. He picked up the Sanhuai wine in front of him and drank it with his neck held high. After thanking him again, he sat back down in his seat with his ugly old face.
The smile on Mu Tianxue's face grew stronger. He glanced sideways at Long Chenyi, who was smiling but not smiling. Then he scanned the people below and found that a certain handsome man was not present, so he asked: "Why didn't Liancheng come?"
banquet?"
How could Liancheng, the crown prince of another country, be absent from such a banquet between kings and ministers? Could it be that he was joining in the fun outside the palace? Ting'er was just coming to express her gratitude, but he disappeared.
"Perhaps you are tired of this banquet and are seeking excitement outside the palace!" Long Chen also said as he picked a grape, peeled it and put it into her mouth. "If you are not interested, go out for a walk.
"
Lian Yue, who was located on the lower left side of Long Chenyi, looked at the two people's intimate actions. They looked like they were in love for a long time. Her heart seemed to be pressed by a thousand pieces of gold, which made her unable to breathe. The hands in her sleeves unconsciously
Has been clenched into a fist.
Mu Tianxue ate grapes and nodded. Just as he was about to pull Mu Wanting beside him and slip out from the back of the palace, he heard the Queen Mother's voice: "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, the monarchs and ministers are gathering together for joy. The Aijia heard that everyone
The rich ladies have all prepared their talents to entertain us, and the Ai family can’t wait to see the graceful appearance of all the rich ladies.”
"The Queen Mother, the talent projects that all the daughters will perform are all listed on the roster." Eunuch Wu, who was beside him, took out the bright yellow roster and walked to the Queen Mother and said respectfully.
"So, let's start in the order of the roster," the Queen Mother said with a smile and nodded.
After Eunuch Wu responded, he bowed and took two steps back, shouting in a male duck voice: "The performance of the rich ladies from all over the country has begun. Please go down and prepare."
After Eunuch Wu finished speaking, all the ladies stood up and left the banquet. The singing and dancing in the hall were coming to an end.
A charming woman surrounded by several dancers, holding two fans in her jade hands, dancing lightly with red gauze on her lotus-root arms, making a lotus shape, as light as a fairy.
A pair of clear eyes looked longingly at Long Chenyi who was sitting on the dragon chair. His eyes flickered and he secretly made eyes look at him, his grace was enchanting and enchanting.
She was dressed in fiery red and thin, covering her white jade-like body. She moved lightly with lotus steps under her feet, and the fan was flying in her hands.
Every frown and every smile is captivating and captivating, and the ministers can't take their eyes off it and praise it endlessly.
But Long Chen still ignored it, peeled the grapes and put them on the plate in front of Mu Tianxue, watching with gentle eyes Mu Tianxue eating them with joy.
Suddenly, a sinister and terrifying murderous aura flashed across his tender and honey-like eyes.
The fan in the hand of the red-dressed dancer dancing in the hall was caught off guard by Mu Tianxue in the hall. It was originally a lace fan, but now it had turned into a semicircular sharp blade. In a flash of cold light, the sharp blade was in front of Mu Tianxue.
At the same time, countless invisible poisonous needles shot towards Long Chenyi like a rainstorm of pear blossoms, and a flash of red light flashed towards the lower left side of Long Chenyi.
The speed was as fast as lightning, and it happened so suddenly that no one could react.
