Zhang Shangshu whispered in his daughter's ear and said anxiously: "Now is the best opportunity. After the emperor returns to the imperial capital, it will be difficult to see the holy face again. My daughter, you must fight for the glory of the Zhang family."
"I, I..." Zhang Xiner hesitated, her heart beating rapidly.
She raised her head, took a quick glance at the man in Xuanyi above her, then blushed and shook her head desperately, "No, my daughter really can't do it!"
"You..." Zhang Shangshu looked at his daughter sullenly, as if he was angry and disappointed. He secretly glared at Zhang Xiner and shook his head and sighed, "Hey, you don't live up to expectations!"
Xin'er's eyes were full of grievances, "I'm sorry, father, and my daughter doesn't want to do it either. It's just that my daughter really can't control herself."
"Sir, our emperor is a little different from other emperors. I think we should not make things self-defeating." Mrs. Zhang next to her said, although she also wanted her daughter to marry the best husband in the world.
But the premise is that this wishful man must also have a heart.
"In my humble opinion, our emperor only cares about the queen and has no tolerance for other women. We'd better abide by our duties and don't cause chaos because of temporary greed." Mrs. Zhang whispered to her husband.
He whispered something in his ear, while holding his daughter's trembling hand and stroking it to comfort her.
Zhang Shangshu disagreed and scolded, "A woman's opinion."
Women don't understand men's hearts. In this world, as long as a man of some status, who doesn't have three wives and four concubines?
What's more, he is the lord of the ninety-five years and the lord of the world. He can love the queen alone. Of course, their queen is indeed worthy of the Sacred Heart's exclusive favor. He does not deny this, but how can such a huge harem only have her?
One person in the middle palace.
If you don’t say anything else, how would you behave?
Mrs. Zhang only smiled slightly and did not argue with her husband.
Zhang Xiner is not the only woman in this situation in the table below. In such an occasion, everyone wants to win the first place, but facing this man, no one has the courage to guarantee that they can handle it easily...
Just like Zhang Xiner, when they appeared in his field of vision, even their breathing was no longer his!
This man is like the bright sun, standing above the heaven and earth. He is so dazzling that only the bright moon can stand side by side with him.
Everyone below had their own thoughts, but Bei Chenyan, who was in the upper position, was in low spirits and seemed a little absent-minded. He was a little tired of even toasting to the ministers. His eyes would glance outside from time to time. Following the gentle music, his thoughts flew to nowhere.
.
After a while, the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, and the performers in the palace retreated.
Prince Heng Tantai Qing exchanged glances with several ministers around him, and all looked towards Bei Chenyan.
Under the signal from Tan Taiqing's eyes, Wei Sicheng stood up, cupped his hands towards Bei Chenyan and said: "Your Majesty, I would like to boldly ask why the Queen has not been seen, and she has not appeared at the palace banquet for several days. But,
What dissatisfaction do you have with me?" xdw8
Bei Chenyan lowered his eyes and glanced down.
Wei Sicheng felt a high mountain above his head pressing down on him. He suddenly had difficulty breathing, and an uncontrollable chill ran down his back. Under Beichenyan's indifferent glance, he felt as if his thoughts were all separated from the human world.
He wanted to take back the slightly suspicious words he just said, but he also knew that at this time, it was better not to say anything.
Bei Chenyan looked at him expressionlessly for a few seconds, then said in a calm voice: "The queen likes silence and doesn't like places with noisy people. What objection does Wei Qing have?"
Although his voice was weak, everyone could hear the murderous spirit hidden in it, as well as the undeniable voice of protection.
The atmosphere in the Qianqing Hall, which was originally filled with singing and dancing, suddenly turned cold, and everyone quickly stopped smiling.
"Wei ministers are afraid, but wei ministers dare not." Wei Si Cheng's heart skipped a beat!
He hurried to the center of the hall, knelt down and kowtowed, "I have heard of the Queen's reputation for a long time, and I have great respect in my heart, but I have never been lucky enough to see Tianyan. Thinking that the Emperor and the Queen will return to the imperial capital soon, I feel that It’s a bit regretful that I’m asking this question.”
Bei Chenyan's dark eyes were as deep as heaven and earth. He sat on a high position and looked at Wei Si Cheng without saying a word, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Wei Si Cheng lowered his head, his heart beating frequency gradually increased, and there was a faint hint of sweat on his forehead.
The ministers exchanged glances silently, and the hall was silent.
Tantai Qing did not expect that just a small temptation would make Bei Chenyan so angry.
As the queen of the middle palace, Ling Xiyue, unless she is seriously ill and unable to get up, or is not in the palace, it would be inappropriate not to show up and it would be against the queen's etiquette.
All the ministers in the court also knew that Ling Xiyue had always been in the royal city and had not felt any discomfort. If she did not show up once, it might be something urgent, which makes sense, but in the past few days at the palace banquet, she had not been seen every time. The absence of her is a great disgrace to her duties as a queen and is very inappropriate.
It even makes people wonder, is it because the emperor and empress are at odds?
Otherwise how could it be so!
Not only Tantai Qing, but also all the ministers did not expect that such an insinuation and test would make Bei Chenyan so unhappy. Originally, the whole night was peaceful, but after such a sentence, the atmosphere suddenly turned negative.
Bei Chenyan's words immediately stopped everyone's speculations.
There is no complicated reason, just because she likes to be quiet, so he just lets her be comfortable. The implication of "not liking the noise" is also a warning, but don't let any unsighted people come up to her and chatter. I mean noisy!
It wasn't until the sweat on Wei Si Cheng's forehead began to drip to the ground that he heard Beichen Yan's words, "It's all about your heart."
"Yes" Wei Si Cheng stood up tremblingly, and walked back to the seats with slightly trembling legs, still feeling uneasy in his heart.
Don't let him do this next time, Beichenyan is not Tantai Hanze!
Wei Si Cheng secretly glared at Tan Taiqing, with lingering fear in his heart.
Tan Taiqing received Wei Sicheng's eyes and flashed slightly. The next second, a warm smile quickly appeared on his face. He stood up with a wine bottle in hand and said to Bei Chenyan: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your empress' reputation is spread far and wide. Ministers I just want to pay my respects to the Queen’s holy face, no offense intended.”
It was time for him to stand up and relax the stiff atmosphere in Qianqing Palace.
"My little girl is not very talented, so she prepared a song and dance for the emperor and empress." He also specifically mentioned Ling Xiyue and said with a smile, "Please give your permission, please."
Of course, all the ministers also bought into Tantai Qing's favor, and immediately burst into laughter. Someone said: "I have heard for a long time that Princess Yuyao knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music, and her dancing skills are even better." A must."
Many people echoed: "Yes, yes."
…
Everyone was looking forward to it, and the harmonious scene just now was quickly restored during the palace banquet.
But at this moment, a long voice suddenly came from outside the palace door: "The Queen has arrived!"
