Chapter 30: The Devil of Confusion
"The fifth prince has arrived!" The little eunuch's shrill voice was particularly loud in this banquet hall. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
And the emperor, who had just sat down, suddenly stood up and walked down the steps quickly when he heard the voice of the little eunuch.
And when Mo Jiuqing heard the voice of the little eunuch and wanted to probe the gaze that examined him just now, that gaze disappeared again. Looking at the man on the right opposite him, it was just a back, but Mo Jiuqing frowned slightly.
Hearing the voice of the little eunuch, the originally silent palace banquet was even quieter at the moment, and all the officials and their families looked at the main entrance, just waiting for the protagonist of this banquet to appear.
Mo Jiuqing also looked at the door, she was also very curious, what kind of man was this famous fifth prince of Lingnan.
Before the person arrived, the reflection of the slender figure appeared impressively in the dappled light.
Although she said that she had been prepared, Mo Jiuqing still couldn't help but be a little surprised, Zi Su always said in front of her that the five princes were good, and said that the five princes were handsome, she laughed at most of them when she heard them, and she didn't take these seriously, after all, if she said a beautiful man, she had seen more.
Not to mention that there were many beautiful men in the organization before, and there were more big stars or something in order to hide their identities in the dark, and they were not long enough to capture the hearts of many girls, so she felt that even if this Jun Yanchen was described by the world as incomparable, it was just like that, they were all people, with a mouth, a pair of eyes and a nose.
But now seeing this Jun Yanchen, Mo Jiuqing couldn't help but be glad that he didn't say what he thought at that time, if he said it, he was afraid that he would be slapped in the face.
The first thing that caught his eye was the unscrupulous black robe, which happened to blow a gust of wind when he came in, and the black robe danced wantonly in the wind, like a butterfly flying in the dark night, just dancing for his appearance.
Then I saw the long hair like a waterfall pouring down, hanging straight down to the man's waist, with a little curl, emitting layers of faint light, and the lights behind him seemed to be just because of his presence to make a foil.
The man seemed to be walking in his own house, slowly pacing into the palace banquet hall, although the pace was slow but elegant, the man's extremely bewitching and arrogant phoenix eyes were half picked, even if he looked at anyone very casually, there was a strong sense of oppression.
The handsome face carved like a knife has a chilling coldness and cold arrogance.
When the man walked in, no one dared, and there was too much carelessness in his eyes, as if nothing could enter his eyes.
Although Mo Jiuqing had heard of his cold temperament for a long time, he was still a little shocked when he saw it now.
Ignoring everyone's gaze, he walked into the center of the banquet hall and stood still, the moonlight faintly sprinkled on him, deep or shallow outlining his perfect figure, as if it was light and dark, at a glance it was an abyss, but it led people to fall into.
The half-picked phoenix eyes imply affection, but with a bit of affection, which makes people look at it again and again.
Thin affection and slight sip imply cold arrogance, anyone who sees it will be discouraged, and they can't stop looking up.
Just as everyone was looking at him, the man looked up at the emperor in front of him, and the corners of his mouth were lightly raised to reveal a wicked smile.
"Minister, see the emperor. A sentence faintly overflowed from the thin lips that led people to sin, but it made the emperor on the side smile toothlessly.
Mo Jiuqing looked at Jun Yanchen not far away, and exhaled slightly, the sky was still a little cold in early spring, but this man gave him a colder feeling, and the evil smile just now always made her feel that the man in front of her was a real demon.
His words can induce you, a smile can tempt you, and if you don't have a strong heart, you will fall into the abyss.
But it also lives up to the praise of the son.
As if sensing Mo Jiuqing's gaze, Jun Yanchen glanced at the lower left and squinted slightly, as if he was full of interest.
"Little brother, you're finally back! It's been almost two years, and if you don't come back, brother, I'll send troops out to look for you." The emperor grabbed Jun Yanchen and said happily.
And Mo Jiuqing also knows that Jun Yanchen and Emperor Jun Chemiao have had a deep relationship since childhood, and the two brothers have never distinguished between you and me, let alone care about these courtesies of monarchs and ministers, and Emperor Jun Chemiao will only be so vigilant and old-fashioned in front of Jun Yanchen.
"Let the eldest brother worry about it, and now that I come back, I won't leave. Jun Yanchen looked at his brother and said in a soft tone.
Even in the face of his brother, Jun Yanchen's words were already cold.
"Okay, okay, just don't go. Come and sit down, knowing that you are back, I specially held a palace banquet for you, and washed the dust for you. When the emperor heard Jun Yanchen's words, he was even more happy, obviously forgetting all his courtiers.
Jun Yanchen was also brought to his seat by the emperor, and when he passed by the position of the third prince Jun Qianxiao, Jun Yanchen paused, and just when everyone thought he would say something, he looked at Jun Qianxiao and passed by indifferently.
It's like dealing with a stranger.
Mo Jiuqing watched from behind, and finally believed the news about Jun Yanchen that Zi Su had been asking day by day.
The relationship between Jun Yanchen and Jun Qianxiao is really incompatible, the third prince Jun Qianxiao is the son of the first emperor and concubine, after the death of the first emperor and the queen, Jun Chemiao ascended the throne, Jun Qianxiao's mother made a Buddhist hall in her palace, sincerely chanted Buddha and fasted, and did not ask about the world.
But the relationship between the two brothers, Jun Qianxiao and Jun Yanchen, has never been good, and it can also be said to be implicitly hostile.
Jun Yanchen is the youngest prince, and the remaining two princes, Mo Jiuqing has only heard that one likes to travel around the world and walk the rivers and lakes, and never cares about the affairs of the court, and the other was sick in his early years and died young.
After letting Jun Yanchen sit down, the emperor returned to his position, and then he said that he had not let the hundred officials live, and then Zhenglongyan said lightly: "Zhongqing, let's be even, today is to celebrate the return of my brother, so a palace banquet will be held, and Zhongqing can only have fun." ”
"Thank you, long live the emperor, long live my emperor. Baiguan also said in unison again.
Then they all returned to their places and sat down.
And although Mo Jiuqing sat down, he also carefully observed the surroundings, the concubine who had not spoken since the beginning of the palace banquet with the emperor made Mo Jiuqing a little curious, since Jun Yanchen entered the banquet hall just now, this concubine looked at Jun Yanchen with a look of wanting to refuse and welcome, and the various emotions in her eyes were also intriguing.
Watching the hundred officials eat and drink, the noble concubine suddenly leaned into the emperor's ear and said a few words.
"My beloved concubine said that in order to celebrate my brother's return, I specially prepared a song and dance, and I would like to take this opportunity to enjoy it together. The emperor raised his hand, and the originally lively palace banquet fell silent.
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the officials clapped their hands in unison, waiting for the dance performance.
Seeing this, Mo Jiuqing pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, this kind of scene is really similar to the ancient palace fighting drama that she watched when she was on a mission, lurking in the house of a wealthy businessman's lover.
Wait a minute, maybe it's the performance time of the official ladies of each family...
It's really boring, but when she went to Bai Aoxue's house to eat and drink with a dead face, Bai Aoxue's iceberg woman actually watched some palace fighting dramas, which surprised her.
I only remember what Bai Aoxue's iceberg woman said seriously: If I also crossed, I wouldn't be afraid to fight those sinister women.
Just as Mo Jiuqing was thinking, the arrogant man in the only position below the emperor supported his chin with the armrest of the chair with one hand, and glanced at Mo Jiuqing who was unaware with evil phoenix eyes.
Then the man withdrew his gaze, but his eyes changed slightly, such a small movement was clearly seen by the concubine beside the emperor.
After she entered the banquet hall from Jun Yanchen, her eyes never left Jun Yanchen, and naturally she did not regret missing Jun Yanchen's seemingly casual, but actually intentional actions.
She has known Jun Yanchen for so many years, and she has never seen him look at a woman with her eyes, even himself, he has never treated her seriously, but now he will take the initiative to see a woman, and he can't help but feel jealous and hateful.
In the center of the banquet hall, the beautiful dancers danced gracefully, and everyone was fascinated by it, but those who had a heart had their own thoughts.
After the dancer retreated, all the officials applauded, such a warm atmosphere, it can't be immersed, the concubine suddenly thought about it and said: "Your Majesty, the concubines see that everyone likes these talents so much, I believe that the families of the ministers are also prepared for talents, why don't they all come out to perform?"
As soon as the emperor heard the words of the concubine, he looked at the ministers and said, "What do you think?"
The ministers, who had been gearing up for a long time, were even more happy when they heard this, so they brought their families to participate in this palace banquet, just so that the five princes could take a fancy to their daughters, if the five princes took a fancy to them, whether it was the career or the prospects, they were the best.
If the five princes don't like it, they can also find good official children.
Of course, it would be the best to be a phoenix in the sky, and which minister didn't come with his family with such a mind. Naturally, he also approved his talent in advance.
"Little brother, what do you think?" Even if he asked the ministers in such a form, the emperor would not forget Jun Yanchen, obviously asking Jun Yanchen's tone was really asking.
As soon as Jun Yanchen heard the emperor's question, he casually glanced at the people present, as if he was aware of the thoughts in the hearts of the ministers, and his eyes were filled with natural arrogance and ridicule of the world.
"It's all up to the royal brother. Evil laughed, Jun Yanchen retracted his gaze and said.
When the emperor heard Jun Yanchen say this, he also agreed to the concubine's idea and asked all the official ladies to prepare.
Mo Jiuqing saw that all the ladies had gone to prepare, and among the ladies present, except for those ministers' wives, they were left to sit motionless in their positions.
Mo Jiuqing didn't see the pitying glances of the surrounding or curious goods, and lowered her eyes slightly so that no one could see her appearance at the moment.
The current result is what she needs...
