Chapter 1: Bai Luan (18)
The horizon gradually turned blue-gray, and the black curtain in the east extended to the west, and the pace of darkening the sky was urgent. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the shade of the towering ancient trees, she leaned under the trees, lying on the grass on her side, the shady grass became damp at night, and a trace of cold slowly climbed up her legs and feet, strolling on all fours, and her body became cold, but she didn't care at all.
I don't know when there was a person standing in front of him, a beautiful woman in red.
"The eldest lady is really leisurely, the palace banquet has begun, aren't you going?"
Hearing this, Han Wen slowly opened his eyes and straightened his back lazily, "I hate places with a lot of people." ”
"Su Chun is right, you really do what you want, which is enviable. ”
"Are you telling me this now to kindly remind me that you are going to the banquet?" Han Wen looked past the beauty and looked at the ancient castle in the distance, under the dark sky, there seemed to be someone standing there, looking this way.
Uncle Wu was ready and had been waiting for her, he didn't dare to come forward to wake her up, but this woman had the courage to come.
"Rest assured that I have promised you, I will keep my promise. She got up with the trunk of the tree, walked to the castle barefoot, just walked a few steps, the beauty behind her knelt down, and worshiped her: "Shui Xiang thank you for your help, this grace is unforgettable, and I am willing to repay you as a cow and a horse in the next life." ”
Han Wen turned around, walked backwards backwards, and said leisurely: "I don't like people kneeling on me, remember in the future, don't talk about those old-fashioned etiquette here, just be free." Don't give us such a big gift in the future, stay here, and don't care about anything outside. Smiling, she stretched out her hand, and as a result, Uncle Wu trotted all the way into the house with the new clothes presented by his hands, leaving the two people outside the house blown by the wind.
"Miss Shui Xiang. Uncle Wu came to the beauty and stretched out his hand to help her. "The eldest lady has something to go out, please go to the house to rest, it's cold at night, don't freeze. ”
Miss Shui Xiang looked up at the old elder, he respected herself very much, and she did not neglect her, but she knew that he respected herself because she was a distinguished guest of the eldest lady of his family.

The magnificent and majestic palace, the sound of silk and bamboo is long and long, and the fairy music is fluttering everywhere, like a white bird singing in unison, dancing happily.
Emperor Wenwu personally drove the Guangling Palace, gave wine three rounds, and after greeting the envoys from various countries, he retired from the palace to rest on the grounds of fatigue, and instructed the prince to entertain the envoys on his behalf.
The host of the palace banquet in the palace became Jun Bai, and everyone was not surprised by this result, and in another month, the emperor abdicated to give way to the prince, and the prince would soon become the youngest emperor in the history of Dayin, and many people flocked to the prince to vote for him.
The courtiers laughed and discussed, and the ladies were even more excited, and the whispers were all about the young talents opposite, which family's son was elegant and handsome, which country's envoys were noble, and the princes of the heavenly family were noble. In fact, no matter which one they are, they are their dream lovers and ideal marriage partners.
The black curtain is all over the sky, the hall is as bright as day, as far as the eye can see, the hall is full of laughter, but there is also a bad scenery......
Xiaoxue fidgeted in her seat, her head bowed and she wanted to bury herself under the table.
Liu Changnan sat next to her, very strange about her abnormal behavior, glanced at the cheering crowd everywhere, leaned towards her a little, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"
"Anan....." she looked up and glanced quietly across the street, her voice susceptible to pleading, "Can we get out of here now? I want to go home." ”
"You know, this kind of banquet is what we say we can go. Liu Changnan glanced at the direction she was looking in just now - the row on the opposite side were all envoys from various countries, and among the various crowds, the crown prince of Nanchu was sitting upright like a pine, and beside him was the second prince with outstanding demeanor. He had long expected to see the envoys of Nanchu at the banquet, although he was mentally prepared, but he was still very nervous when he stayed under the same roof with Huang Li again, he was not sure if Huang Li recognized him and Xiaoxue, after more than two months, the other party should not have forgotten them, after all, they had cheated others, and there was still this hatred. It has been a while since the banquet started, and so far, everything has been fine, but he is still faintly uneasy in his heart, and he always feels that things are going too well. He doesn't know what kind of person Huang Li is, but whoever is cheated by someone, and when he sees the enemy again, he has no reason to settle things, the more calm the phenomenon, the more dangerous it is, and he is always not worried that Huang Li will easily let him and Xiaoxue go.
In fact, he really wanted to stay away from this palace banquet, but he was not Wenwen, so he was not so bold to directly brush the royal face and refuse to participate in the banquet.
"I advised you not to plunge into the fire pit, but you didn't listen to me, but now it's okay, everyone is here, and I don't know if we can escape the catastrophe. "I regret it when I think about it, I came to this banquet with a fluke mentality, and when it came time to meet the emperor face to face, he was really timid.
If Huang Li had no scruples and identified him and Xiaoxue in public, with the "good deeds" they had done in Dongzi, even if they were not treated as criminals with heinous crimes, they would not be able to escape their crimes. What's even more troublesome is that he and Xiaoxue's current identities are the Han family, and when Dayin and Nan Chu ask for guilt, it will inevitably affect the Han family and the Golden Empire, presumably Wenwen will be so angry that he will get sick, thinking about these consequences, he regrets all the favors he did to help the Long family at the beginning, this can be regarded as causing trouble!
Alas, the trouble is not only this, if the matter is really exposed, those who covet and fear the Han family and the Golden Empire will definitely wait for the opportunity to make a fuss about him and Xiaoxue, so as to attack and calculate Hanwen, it is very likely that things will develop in a worse and worse direction.
Liu Changnan was anxious for a while, and he didn't have enough confidence to face the other side, so he subconsciously lowered his head and stared intently at the teacup on the table, pretending to be an idler in a distracted mood.
At this time, he didn't know that the people around him were not only worried about the danger of being recognized by the emperor, but also that there was another greater danger lurking above this palace banquet.
