Chapter 32: Phoenix Shadow

"Shangshu" has clouds: Xiao Shao is ninety, and there is Feng Laiyi.

It is rumored that during the Muzong period, there was a Luan phoenix hovering on the Canghe River, and its song was trembling, and it had not returned for a long time, so as to show the prosperity of the heavenly family. Mu Zong Dayue, with the auspicious omen sent by God, began to build the Phoenix Shadow Terrace, facing the Canghe River in the sky, and surrounding the etheric liquid.

Fengyingtai is magnificent, towering into the sky, and it is the place where the heavenly family uses to feast.

King Yan entered Beijing today, it is a rare event in the palace, the emperor gave a state banquet at night, and the relatives of hundreds of officials and palaces have moved to Fengyingtai.

In the evening, the Canghe River is cold, but the phoenix shadow is fragrant in Taizhong, the warm breeze is warm, and the flowers are contending.

"Princess Zhaoyuan has arrived--"

"The crown princess has arrived--"

I walked into the main hall with Lu Ruo, the ceremonial officials led the way, and the military officials and the wives on the left and right ceremonial seats looked sideways, and the original happy atmosphere was frozen for a while, and Lu Ruo was uneasy to pull my sleeves beside me.

"You invited me to this bells and whistles banquet with you today, don't you just want to have more confidence, you can't stand it at this time?" I looked ahead, the corners of my mouth moved slightly, and I whispered to Yu Ruo.

Yu Ruo hesitated for a moment: "Princess, they are all looking at us, they must be watching my jokes......"

I swept my eyes to the left over the nearby seats, where two women were whispering, and when they saw me standing above them, their faces stiffened and their voices silent.

If she didn't say anything along the way, I couldn't help but sigh when I saw her weak look.

The light gauze and thin shoes of the palace lady stroked the glass bead curtain, I and Yu Ruo walked into the inner hall, bursts of ambergris incense on the face, the bright yellow dragon relief green screen came into view, I and Yu Ruo knelt under the golden steps:

"Son-in-law see father--"

Sitting in the middle is the honor of today's Great Zhou Ninety-Five.

I quietly raised my eyes and looked, a bright yellow shadow shrouded overhead, my father and Xiao Guifei were in the main position, King Yan was on the right, and the prince had not attended. Zhen Guogong and Xiao are on the left. The people on the seat are all extraordinary, like gods.

"Yue'er, why are you here?" the emperor's majestic and calm words sounded above my head, "You are injured, you should recuperate." ”

I glanced at Yu Ruo, she bowed her head and knelt silently, and said, "Uncle Huang entered Beijing today, and Zhaoyuan should come." The crown princess thought that her son's health was sick, so she came with her son. ”

The emperor didn't speak for a long time, I tilted my head slightly, and saw Qi Ye sitting behind the right side of Zhenguo Gong, who was looking at me quietly with a wine glass, and found that I was looking at him, and raised his eyebrows at me slightly.

I glared at him slightly, who knew that this series of movements was actually in full view of the dignified Zhenguo Gong sitting on the side, I was stunned, and quickly turned around and knelt down peacefully.

"Now that you're here, what are you doing on your knees? The emperor's words sounded impartially, and I got up with Yu Ruo Xie and sat down in the seat behind the left of King Yan.

King Yan was drinking wine, while staring at me drunkenly, with a golden light in his narrow Danfeng eyes: "In a blink of an eye, our little princess has become a big girl, Brother Huang, Xiao Yue'er looks more and more like her mother...... Ha Lu Ha ......"

The emperor didn't speak, but Xiao Guifei on the side laughed softly: "The emperor's brother has been idle for many years, and he still remembers Zhaoyuan's appearance. ”

Everyone in the audience was stunned and speechless. I frowned and looked at the rather delicate environment around me, but I inadvertently met Xiao Guifei's slightly narrowed phoenix eyes, and the jade fingers dyed with bright red Kodan caressed her beautiful cheeks, and the corners of my mouth hooked up a smile.

I guessed in my heart that she knew about the rumors that I had spread when I was recuperating in Yan Kingdom, so she embarrassed me with this. I clenched my hands into fists, secretly tightened, and looked down at the wine cup in front of me.

"Yuwen Qiye heard the name of King Yan when he was in Xiliang in his early years, and everyone in Liangzhou praised King Yan. Qi Ye's clear voice broke the silence, and I looked up only to see him get up and raise his wine glass, looking at King Yan from afar.

King Yan looked at him with a drunken smile and a sober smile, his tongue was sharp, and he asked leisurely: "The widows of Liangzhou haven't been to yet, tell me how they praise the widows? What is the praise of the widows?"

Qi Ye replied: "Liangzhou humane Yan Wang is free and easy, especially loves to appreciate beauty, today Yan Wang is unforgettable to the princess's beauty, which shows that the prince is indeed unique." ”

With that, he looked back at me deeply.

I was suddenly moved by him for relieving the siege for me, but I only listened to King Yan say: "Ha Luha! where is the son of the Zhenguo Mansion boasting about the widow, I'm afraid he is protecting the shortcomings of your little lady, right?"

My face turned red, and I looked at the gossip eyes of everyone under the seat, and whispered to King Yan: "Uncle Huang hasn't seen him for a few years, why is he still so fond of laughing at Yue'er, where is Yue'er?"

King Yan shook his head, but smiled silently.

I looked in the direction of Yuwen Qiye again, and he happened to turn around and drink with Xiao, with a calm demeanor.

"What time is it?" the emperor asked.

Xiao Guifei replied: "It's past the unitary time." ”

The emperor frowned: "Why haven't you seen the queen mother for a long time?"

Concubine Xiao glanced in the direction of Lu Ruo, and her lips opened lightly: "The Queen Mother has been practicing behind closed doors for the past few days, and Changle Palace has been ordered by Yi to see no guests, so I am afraid that I will not be able to come to the night banquet today." ”

He was stunned for a moment, and his expression became more and more gloomy as he sat next to me.

Everyone in the audience knows that this time the emperor abolished the crown prince, and the first person to stand up and say right was the queen mother.

King Yan observed Yu Ruo through the wine glass, and said to the emperor casually: "The queen mother is now more and more disregarding the love of mother and son, and her son has come all the way, so please don't move her old man, I am afraid that the strange widow will act arbitrarily on weekdays, contrary to her will...... Hey, Xiao Yue'er, have a drink with Uncle Huang. ”

He raised his glass rather melancholy, and I raised it with him, the wine was like a moment in his throat, and King Yan grinned at me behind the white jade wine glass, and Danfeng's eyes were full of cunning.

The emperor looked worried: "A while ago, it was rumored that you had another pair of male pets, and I was quite worried about you when I heard it, you have reached this age, and it is time to consider accepting another queen." ”

King Yan propped his cheeks with one hand, quite helpless: "The widow has this hobby in his life, do the imperial brother still want to deprive it?" There are groups of wives and concubines like the imperial brother, and the widow really can't cope with it, so it's better to be the widow's male favorite." With that, he shook his head again and again.

If it were someone else, if he dared to speak to the emperor like this, he would definitely be punished for the crime of trespassing, but these words came out of King Yan's mouth, and the emperor laughed instead of anger, and only said: "It's okay, it's up to you." ”

Then he turned his head and said to Concubine Xiao, "It's not early, pass it down for a banquet." ”

"Yes. ”

Xiao Guifei tapped her palm, countless palace ladies dressed in light tulle walked in with fine steps, the ceremonial official played the chime on one side, and the music of the silk and bamboo orchestra lingered on the phoenix shadow platform. Outside the curtain, hundreds of officials congratulated King Yan on entering the dynasty in unison, and the cold Canghe River was smiling for a while, like a fairyland.

Suddenly, the sound of the building sounded, crisp and melodious, very familiar.

On the main hall, a hundred flower petals are fluttering and fluttering, which is soft and beautiful. A red shadow flew down from the sky, the clouds were sagging, and the graceful posture was like a goddess descending.

The moment she turned her head, the autumn pupils cut the water, and the geese sank into the fish.

The thousands of pearls in Fengying Taizhong shone on her alluring face, the sound of hitting the building gradually rose, and her soft figure danced with the music, light and wonderful.

The people in the audience were fascinated and amazed.

The emperor sat upright, and his face first moved when she appeared, and then he was silent.

King Yan drank wine one after another, and his drunken eyes never left her for a moment.

Xiao Guifei always had a dignified smile on her face, and she didn't miss anything.

Yu Wen Qi and I were across the long hall with a hundred flowers at night, looking at the beautiful clothes in front of the stage, I compared a lip sync to him, he raised his wine glass to me and saluted me from afar, hid his face and drank it all, and smiled at me.
