Li Zimo was thinking about He Yanyan talking, and although Bian Xiao understood in his heart, he was always a little unhappy.
After hearing this, several princes nearby shook their heads:
"When meeting the Queen Mother here, why is there any reason to wear a veil?"
"Yes, isn't this disrespectful to the Queen Mother?"
"..."
The rumors around her quickly started. He Yanyan stood up and walked to the middle of the hall, bowing and bowing: "I have always been grateful to the Queen Mother, how can I be disrespectful to the Queen Mother? It's just that my face was injured by an adulterer, and in a fire
My appearance has been completely ruined, and now I have been applying medicine, and I have never removed the gauze again..."
The Queen Mother frowned slightly after hearing this, and turned to look at Bian Xiao: "How could there be a traitor who framed the princess for disfigurement? Xiao'er, you are the regent, you shouldn't be unaware of this matter, right?"
Bian Xiao coughed slightly in embarrassment. Not only did Bian Xiao know about this matter, he even knew that the culprit of this matter was himself.
He came to He Yanyan's side and saluted and said: "Mother Huang, He Yanyan is indeed inconvenient now, please forgive me!"
"That's all." With a wave of her hand, the Empress Dowager did not mean to deliberately embarrass her. "Since Zimo has also opened his mouth, the Ai family doesn't want to force it."
Ye Siying watched He Yanyan sit down with a disgraceful face, and gave Bian Xiao a piece of meat with a hook on her lips: "Wang, Yingying sees that the princess is really humiliating the palace, so let her go back early?"
Bian Xiao glanced at He Yanyan. Under Li Zimo's care, although there were always people around who wanted to take the opportunity to mock her, Li Zimo did not give them a chance. Although he was grateful for his protection of his wife, Bian Xiao was not comfortable.
——
Li Zimo and she were only five years apart. The Queen Mother asked her to adopt Li Zimo because of the emperor's persecution of General Li, and she did so in order to protect General Li's descendants.
But now it seems...
Bian Xiao suddenly had the illusion that raising a tiger was causing trouble.
Shaking his head, he rejected Ye Siying's proposal: "Today is the Queen Mother's birthday, how can you come and leave as soon as you say?"
When the palace banquet is almost over, the concubines in the palace will present their talents.
The emperor first pulled out his favorite concubine, and then said to Bian Xiao with some provocation: "Fourth brother, do you want the princess to dance, or do you want the concubine to give you a gift?"
Bian Xiao took a deep breath——
Ye Siying is not a person who can stand on the stage at all. Not to mention playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is not very good at even female celebrities.
But now that He Yanyan is injured, she will definitely not be able to dance.
Frowning, Bian Xiao saluted: "How can my brother be so lucky as the emperor? All the emperor's wives are good at singing and dancing, and my family members can only fall behind."
The emperor knew that He Yanyan was pregnant, and Ye Siying was Bian Xiao's favorite. Today was the Empress Dowager's birthday, and he would keep one of them in the palace to blackmail Bian Xiao no matter what.
His eyes lingered on the two of them for a while, and first stopped on Ye Siying: "I have long heard that Miss Ye and the emperor are in love. Today is also a good day. Miss Ye has also come to the palace, so why not sing and dance to the Empress Dowager?
Song, to add to the fun!"
"..."
Bian Xiao knew that the emperor's brother had not kept the water in his stomach well. He glanced at Ye Siying worriedly——
Now it is equivalent to the emperor's order. How can he not obey it?
But Ye Siying turned her head away: "Wang, you know, Yingying can't do anything, Yingying can't dance!"
"..."
When it comes to causing trouble for Bian Xiao, if Ye Siying is second, then no one can really be first.
Bian Xiao took a deep breath: "The emperor's words are the emperor's orders. Where is the reason for disobedience? Don't act like a child. I remember that you once played the zither, so let's play a song to cheer up the emperor!"
But at this time, Ye Siying's butt seemed to be growing on the chair and just couldn't get up:
"Yingying won't go! Yingying hasn't practiced the piano for a long time, and her piano skills have long been rusty!"
Bian Xiao's face turned dark instantly.
He glanced at the sword on Qi Haoxuan's belt without any trace, or maybe he sensed the murderous intention in Bian Xiao's heart, and quickly stepped aside.
Casting his gaze on He Yanyan again, Bian Xiao was really at his wits end.
He Yanyan looked at the man looking at her for help. She nodded, then stretched out two fingers and hinted -
Add 20,000 troops.
Bian Xiao took a deep breath and nodded.
That's good!
He Yanyan stood up and saluted: "On the Queen Mother's birthday, the Regent's Palace really doesn't have any gifts that can be given. If the Queen Mother doesn't mind it, I will perform a dance for the Queen Mother. I hope the Queen Mother will agree!"
The Queen Mother nodded.
Qi Haoxuan leaned over and whispered in Bian Xiao's ear with some worry: "Wang, the princess still has leg problems. If she dances..."
Bian Xiao frowned, but now he had no choice: "Then you go up and jump?"
Qi Haoxuan shrank his neck - forget it then.
Under the service of the servants, He Yanyan changed her outfit. Although she did not take off her veil, she put on brightly colored dance clothes. This scene looked more like a butterfly flying at the banquet.
As the music played, He Yanyan danced gracefully, her sleeves drawing beautiful arcs in the air. Although her legs were still injured and some of her movements had to be adapted, she felt even more proud.
The Queen Mother nodded, with a look of relief on her face: "Yan Yan's dance has really touched the hearts of the Ai family, thank you!"
"Thank you Queen Mother!"
Seeing He Yanyan's face in front of the Queen Mother, Ye Siying sneered at the side: "Yes. But I have always heard that the princess is as beautiful as a fairy, but today she is dancing with a veil, which is really a pity."
Bian Xiao glared at her: "Shut up."
"..."
Ye Siying had never seen Bian Xiao angry before. After hearing his words, she felt aggrieved: "Wang..."
But when Ye Siying said this, the Queen Mother was a little worried: "Come, call the imperial doctor. Also, change the food in front of the princess to the same as the Ai family, and remove all the spicy food!"
Although I know that the Empress Dowager has good intentions, if she takes off her veil and gauze here and lets the imperial doctor diagnose and treat her, won't the fact that her face is already healed be exposed?
And if her face has healed, wouldn't Ye Siying's reason for saying that Bian Xiao wanted to marry her become untenable?
Although He Yanyan didn't know Bian Xiao's true intention of marrying Ye Siying, she thought there must be something else.
"Queen Mother, my concubine's face is burned, it really brings disgrace to the royal family, so..."
"It doesn't matter." Under Ye Siying's comparison, the Queen Mother now liked He Yanyan more. When she thought that Bian Xiao actually married such a concubine, she became extremely angry. She would give anything to He Yanyan today.
Back it up, "The hospital has superb medical skills and will definitely be able to cure your injuries."
After saying that, the Empress Dowager glanced at the servants around her, and several of them quickly went to ask for the imperial doctor.
