Chapter 119: One Thought Persistence

Outside the Taihe Palace, the night banquet is in full swing, the dancing queen on the stage is wonderful, the dancing sleeves in her hands are as smart as a snake, and the palace banquet is perfectly coordinated, very fascinating;

On the throne, the little emperor was watching the song and dance with great interest, and the aunt Si Shan beside her, under the guidance of the Empress Dowager, was carefully and meticulously arranging dishes for the little emperor.

The little emperor is still young, the queen mother will not let him drink too early, and this child has a small problem, that is, it is easy to get rashes on the body after eating seafood, so the little emperor's meal is not stained with any seafood ingredients, so the queen mother pays special attention to this aspect, although she eats at the same table with the little emperor, but also the aunt who is responsible for the emperor's diet and meals, it is good to distinguish these ingredients.

Seeing that the little emperor had a good appetite for a meal, and the night banquet was also very cheerful and lively, the empress dowager was happy, and the smile on the corner of her mouth never subsided.

Aunt Luo Xia, who had been waiting by the Empress Dowager's side, turned back after leaving for a while, and whispered a few words in the Empress Dowager's ear, although the smile on the Empress Dowager's face did not change, she still sighed secretly in her heart, and then said:

"Let the two children go. ”

Aunt Luo Xia understood the Empress Dowager's intentions, and then respectfully stepped aside, carefully serving the Empress Dowager.

This scene happened to be seen by the third princess Xiao Wen, a trace of imperceptible light flashed in her translucent eyes, she glanced at the empty seat, thinking that the eldest sister and the eldest horse had left the table for a long time, and she didn't know where she went, so she hurriedly asked Xiao Yue, the second imperial sister who was sitting quietly next to her, and said:

"I don't know if the eldest sister will have time to come back to see the Jizhou fireworks?"

The fireworks in Jizhou Shanggong are the most majestic and dazzling, because of their complicated production process and huge cost, so they are only used on important festivals such as national celebrations and Chinese New Year's Eve.

Today's birthday of the Empress Dowager has the finale of Jizhou's tribute, which can be regarded as living up to this magnificent feast.

After asking for a while, he didn't hear any response from the second sister, Xiao Wen looked at Xiao Yue curiously, but saw that the second sister's eyes seemed to have been watching the place where several concubines and several ministers of the court and the central government were drinking and greeting.

After a lengthy ritual process, the Empress Dowager issued a decree that the ministers could walk freely around to celebrate, toast each other, and exchange courtesies. After accompanying their princess for a while, several concubines who couldn't sit still left the table one after another and took the initiative to toast some ministers.

And at this moment, a few horses are talking around each other, isn't it the humble gentleman Yixian? And coincidentally, Gao Wei, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, is actually among them, these people are like close friends, drinking and chatting, and having a good time!

Following the gaze of the second sister Xiao Yue, Xiao Coco found that what the second sister was looking at intently did not seem to be the second horse, but in that direction......

Xiao Wen saw through the hole, filled himself with a glass of wine alone, turned his head and drank it all, and then looked at the exquisite multicolored pattern wine glass in his hand in a daze, but there was a slight mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, he put down the wine glass casually, and then leaned a little lazily next to the second princess Xiao Yue, seemingly unintentionally but intentionally, asked, and said:

"Second sister, what do you think, what do you think of that Yixian?"

Xiao Yue woke up like a dream, knowing that he had lost his mind, in order not to attract Xiao Wen's attention, he hurriedly replied with a smile and said:

"That Yixian is really as rumored, he is a fairy-like character!"

Xiao Wen smiled, continued to ask, and said:

"And what about the commander of the Royal Forest Army beside him, Gao Wei?"

Xiao Wen supported her chin with one hand, staring at her second sister with interest, when she mentioned Gao Wei, the second sister obviously looked a little unnatural, and even her gaze was evasive.

The second princess Xiao Yue's tone paused for a moment, and then she said seemingly unintentionally, saying:

"It's also a talent, and the rest is not very clear. ”

"At that time, the Gao family was a double master, and the two champions of civil and military affairs were dominant, and they were the best, and they are still talked about. Now that Wen Zhuangyuan has become our eldest sister's concubine, I just don't know which county lord of the clan family's good match will be this martial champion in the future?"

If it is true that the speaker has a heart, the listener also has a heart.

After hearing Xiao Cohen's words, Xiao Yue's face lost its former indifference, and a faint sad look appeared, it was rare to see the second sister drink the wine in the cup so proudly, Xiao Wen also confirmed, who is the person in the second sister's heart?

Even if the case is raised with eyebrows, is it difficult to settle the matter?

Xiao Wen also understands this kind of taste, and naturally understands Xiao Yue's feelings.

It's just that she lives a little more chic than Xiao Yue, after all, she dares to pursue what she really wants, and even does not hesitate to cross the boundaries of etiquette.

But the only thing that made Xiao Wen feel painful and unwilling was that her current disregard was actually inspired by the unwillingness and resentment after being forced to accept the political marriage.

In fact, in the final analysis, she is not really at ease at all, this is just a silent accusation of her own inability to control her fate like a moth to a fire.

Xiao Wen hated that he was born in the royal family, and even more hated the imperial grandmother who forced him to marry Ji Sui's waste, he was just a pawn of the imperial grandmother in order to balance the power in the court, and a victim in order to maintain the rule of the dynasty.

She Xiao Wen is like this, and her sisters are like this......

Why? They are obviously the most noble princesses of this dynasty, enjoying the glory and wealth that ordinary people can't reach, and they have a proud status, but they don't even have the opportunity to control their own destiny?

In fact, the princess is the most unfortunate being.

Yes, princess, it should be unfortunate, so that it can be considered in line with the cycle of heaven.

Coco Hsiao often thinks like this.

Look at yourself, and that Ji Sui is just a relationship of mutual use, maintaining a good image of the princess and the concubine, false and wronged, and then not interfering with each other, each having their own pleasure;

There is also the eldest sister......

Eldest sister, I really love and hate her!

Since she was a child, she has received more things than all her sisters, the favor of her father, the favor of her grandmother, the noble birth, the coexistence of intelligence and beauty, the coexistence of gentleness and tenacity, she herself is a very perfect being, and she is a truly noble princess!

When the eldest sister also had to succumb to the majesty of the imperial grandmother and marry Gao Chen, Xiao Wen had a hint of joy at that moment, yes, she was happy in her heart, just like on a lonely and never-ending road, she found a companion who could go on together......

You see, even Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who is so noble, doesn't she have to obey the interests of the royal family and marry someone she doesn't like at all?

Yes, such a perfect and noble eldest sister has succumbed, hasn't she? she has succumbed like herself, and she is the same as herself!

At this time, Coco Xiao really realized that the person she had always hated the most was not someone else, but herself!

Xiao Wen took the wine jug, neatly filled it for Xiao Yue, poured herself another glass, and took the initiative to take the wine glass to touch Xiao Yue's, as if she was drunk, with a smile on her face, but her eyes were suddenly hazy, she pulled Xiao Yue and said sadly:

"Second sister, I hate it so much, I hate myself so much, why didn't I have the courage to resist the decree at that time!"

Yes, if I refused to marry back then, or fought to the death, would the ending be different? If the ending changed, then I wouldn't have become such a Xiao Wen!

But such a cruel truth can no longer tolerate any more beautiful fantasies......

Xiao Cohen's words, Xiao Yue's heart also felt like being pricked by a needle, the people who lost such courage back then were not only Xiao Cohen, but also themselves, if they were braver back then and confessed their hearts to that person, even if they were rejected, they would not have the deep regret they have now.

One wrong step, every step is wrong!

Xiao Yue's tears fell silently, and Xiao Wen pretended to drink in a chic manner, obviously uncomfortable in her heart, but she smiled so happily and movingly, and Xiao Ling, the carefree fourth princess, saw it, and saw the two sisters so happy, and they were not far behind to join the team of this booze.

The three sisters are so happy and noisy, and they drink a cup of wine without any scruples, taking advantage of the beautiful scenery of this good day, a festive day, and get drunk without scruples, even if they get drunk and unconscious in the end, what does it matter?

Who cares?

Not far away, several princesses looked over to the princesses, but found that the princesses were happily drinking wine and humming songs, so happy.

Seeing the four princesses jumping happily, Liu Ji also felt happy in his heart, and couldn't help but say:

"It's been a long time since I've seen Suzu smile so happily!"

As soon as the words came out, Liu Ji couldn't help blushing slightly, because he accidentally called out the nickname of the fourth princess, so that the other two concubines could listen to it, and they couldn't laugh at him.

But when he saw that he looked at Mu Yan and Ji Sui respectively, he found that his idea was simply superfluous.

Because Ji Sui was about to get drunk, the second concubine Ma Muyan looked at the second princess with a worried expression.

Obviously, the princesses were playing so happily, why did the two horses show such worried looks?

Liu Ji couldn't understand it, in his heart, as long as the princesses had fun, it was better not to have it!
