Chapter Forty-Seven: The Imperial Garden

At night, the imperial garden is lit by candles, full of blooming flowers and green trees, and then look at the side, is a huge lawn, and in the center of the lawn is an octagonal pavilion that covers the sky, the brilliant and bright candlelight sets off this pavilion is particularly dazzling, and around the green lawn is very regularly placed a table carved of mahogany, the table is full of all kinds of dishes and wines, which undoubtedly does not show the noble identity and status of the owner.

There were people around the table, except for the civil and military officials who had just returned to the dynasty, everyone was chatting with high interest, after all, the emperor had not yet arrived, and he could not despise the monarchy and drink alone, so he could only chat here.

Ouyang Chenyi looked around indifferently, a strange smile spread on the corner of his lips, and he walked towards Bai Aotian, who was dressed in a battle robe, bowed his head slightly, to show respect, and then said: "General Bai was born under the three lights, what is the joy of life, and what is the fear of death?

Bai Aotian leaned over slightly, arched his hand and replied: "King Zunyi is serious, the old man is just a reckless man, and he is just an unknown general in the court. ”

Hearing this, Ouyang Chenyi laughed secretly, and a floating word sounded, "General Bai is the number one general in Tianqi, why can't he have a place in the court!"

Bai Aotian's face was sad, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a wry smile, and said: "Hey, the old man has been guarding the border for many years, and it is not easy to return to the dynasty this time and want to gain a foothold in the court." Bai Aotian's tone was flat, but the anger in his eyes still burst out from time to time.

He wanted to give the minister of the court a dismount in the morning, so that he could gain a firm foothold in the court, but he didn't want to be ruined by a little eunuch.

"Oh, then the general wants to gain a foothold in the court quickly?" Ouyang Chenyi's eyes flashed with an unknown light, so fast that people didn't have time to catch it, and it was fleeting.

"What does King Zunyi mean by this?" Bai Aotian stretched out two fingers, and his doubtful words sounded.

"What does this king mean......" Ouyang Chenyi was interrupted by an elegant voice as soon as he was halfway through speaking, "Is the Fifth Emperor Brother asking General Bai about interesting things outside the Saiwai?"

Ouyang Chenyi raised his eyebrows, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, turned his head to look at the person who came, and asked instead of answering, "Isn't it that the third emperor brother also came to General Bai to inquire about interesting things outside the Saiwai?"

"Yes, I heard that there are a lot of interesting things outside the Saiwai, this king has come to find out, the fifth emperor brother won't mind, right?" Ouyang Ye was dressed in a crescent white robe on the floor, handsome but not elegant, arrogant but not degrading, with a gentle and elegant eyebrow, and a faint look in his eyes that was secretly as sharp as a sword.

"What did the Third Emperor Brother say, how could this king mind that the Fifth Emperor Brother would come to listen to General Bai tell interesting stories?!" The smile on the corner of Ouyang Chenyi's mouth remained the same, and his tone was indifferent, but his eyes were almost invisibly stained with a layer of frost.

Ouyang Ye deliberately came to sabotage his chance to win over Bai Aotian, damn it!

At this moment, a sharp figure floated out in the crowd, "The emperor has arrived!"

Ouyang Ye and Ouyang Chenyi smiled at the corners of their mouths at the same time, staring at the source of the voice, and then the ministers threw their sleeves together, knelt down, and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

Slowly, a figure emerged from the darkness and came by the moonlight, followed by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, and on closer inspection, one of the small eunuchs was Shangguan Ye Lin disguised.

Ouyang Xuanyue waved her sleeve robe, sat on the main seat with a tall and cold and arrogant figure, glanced at everyone present with a cold afterglow, and said indifferently: "Zhongqing's family is flat. His indifferent temperament can always invisibly attract the attention of others, and his natural momentum that cannot be hidden even if he wants to hide is surrounded by him.

"Your Majesty, Emperor. With that, the ministers stood up.

"Ladies and gentlemen, take a seat. The cold words drifted away with the wind, a brocade robe floated in, and the drooping ink hair gently rose with the breeze, indescribably cold and arrogant, elegant, and dusty.

Hearing this, the ministers sat in different seats in order of status.

"Why don't General Bai and the generals change into civilian clothes?" Ouyang Xuanyue's slender crystal fingers took a sip of the wine glass, and his eyes swept towards Bai Aotian indifferently, and asked lightly.

Bai Aotian stood up, his tall and loose figure was always tough and powerful, and he replied: "Back to the emperor, the ministers are all wearing battle robes outside the fortress, so they are used to it, if they don't wear this battle robe, they always feel uncomfortable." ”

"Yes, if you don't wear this robe, the ministers will not get used to it. Wu Dong, a general who followed Bai Aotian, stood up and echoed.

The corners of Shangguan Yelin's mouth tugged slightly, and her eyebrows were slightly raised. Could it be that they will still get used to wearing clothes? Joke! This excuse for Bai Aotian is inevitably too beautiful, and the reason why they wore battle robes to the banquet was nothing more than to tell the ministers that they were veterans guarding the border gates, and they were great heroes!

"Oh, I see, General Bai, please be seated. Ouyang Xuanyue's deep eyes were filled with a thousand kinds of glass light under the flickering of the candlelight, and his delicate and perfect face was like the creator carved from white jade, flawless, even at night, it still made people marvel at his perfect face.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Bai Aotian sat down in response.

Ouyang Xuanyue glanced at Shangguan Ye Lin, who was dressed in eunuch uniforms, and Shangguan Ye Lin immediately cleared her throat and shouted, "The song and dance performance begins." Before the words fell, I saw Shangguan Ye Linji invisibly move his steps towards Ouyang Xuanyue, and then reached out to pinch Ouyang Xuanyue's back.

Ouyang Xuanyue seemed to sense something, smiled at the corners of her thin lips, stretched out her knobular hand and held Shangguan Ye Lin's small hand stretched out behind his back, held it lightly in the palm of her hand, and rubbed it gently, the warm feeling that Ouyang Xuanyue transmitted from her palm to Shangguan Ye Lin made her feel an inexplicable sense of security.

After a while, a group of women dressed in colorful green dresses came up, each woman held a fan in her hand, the music sounded, the women rotated with the music like a pen walking dragon painting Danqing, the fan sometimes lightly Shu Yun hand, sometimes closed and held, each woman a little red lips, the look of the desire to speak and be ashamed.

Then I saw them all together, in the dispersion, a woman in a snow-white elegant dress came out, jade sleeves are windy, elegant and vigorous, eyes are full of charming light, the folding fan in the hand is like a wonderful pen like a silk string, turning, throwing, opening and closing, flowing water and clouds are as beautiful.
