Chapter 117: Plum Hidden in the Snow

The heavy rain poured down, slamming on the eaves, pouring like hail, and the crisp sound reached the bottom of my heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Su Wanqing stood in the main hall of the Summer Palace and stared blankly at the hazy world, the eaves flying high in the distance looked a little misty, but he could still see the situation like an eagle striking the sky.

For many days, Concubine Jin never came to the Summer Palace again, and even, these days, Chu Xiuze did not send her a message. At first, she wondered what was going on, but last night she inadvertently glanced at the jade pan in the night sky, and then remembered that the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace was coming.

The Summer Palace was silent, but outside it was not peaceful. Although the Yuwen clan is from the Beidi Xianbei clan, it has been integrated into the Central Plains for a hundred years, and it also attaches great importance to the Mid-Autumn Festival. And this year, King Langya's return to the imperial court has caused quite a stir, and the situation in the imperial capital has begun to change.

It seems that the banquet is staggered, and the monarchs and ministers talk about state affairs, but in fact, people have their own worries. Yu Wenche sat in the center, on the right was the Empress Dowager Zhou, who rarely appeared, and on the left was Murong Guifei, and Murong Guifei was headed by the banquet table of King Langya and his son. In an instant, only a sneer remained at the corner of Yu Wenche's mouth, he was "surrounded" by these people.

"Minister Murong Jing congratulated the emperor on his health and the queen mother's phoenix body was peaceful. Long live my emperor, a thousand years old the queen mother. Murong Jing strode to the atrium, knelt down and toasted.

Yu Wenche accepted his bow before he said slowly, "Uncle Huang, hurry up, I have already understood your intentions, and there is no need to be so polite." As he spoke, he glanced at Murong Yin'er with a special charm, but saw that the smile on the corner of Murong Yin'er's mouth became deeper and deeper.

"On this festive occasion, it should be an atmosphere of reunion and happiness, but in my heart..."Murong Jing clutched his chest, looking grief-stricken.

Yuwen was not tired of it, and accompanied him to act to the end, leaning over slightly and saying, "Uncle Huang, what's wrong?" Yin'er and Brother Li's are here, are you missing the princess and aunt who are far away in Langya? ”

Murong Jing waved his hand again and again, "The minister doesn't dare, the minister is worried about the emperor and sad for the emperor!" ”

Yu Wenche hooked the corners of his lips, rotated the black jade wrench ring on his thumb, and said meaningfully, "I don't know what Aiqing is worried about me?" He clearly felt that Murong Yin'er, who was sitting beside him, was nervous, and cast a look between him and Murong Jing with anticipation.

"In the year when the emperor was established, the heirs under his knees were thin, and what made the ministers even more worried was that there was no one in this harem who could take on the responsibility of the middle palace!"

As soon as Murong Jing's words came out, the entire banquet suddenly fell silent. The concubines and concubines sitting behind the bead curtain all exchanged glances with each other, and whatever King Langya was thinking in his head, fools knew that it was nothing more than urging the emperor to appoint their Murong family's concubine as the queen!

Empress Dowager Zhou had been a little in good spirits since the beginning of the banquet, but when she heard Murong Jing's words, she also echoed it, and snorted coldly, "The mourning family has mentioned it to the emperor many times, but in the end, the emperor is the one who holds the power, and my mother's words can't be listened to!" ”

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the virtuous concubine Yang Yushu and replied, "How can it be like what the imperial uncle said, there is no one in the harem who can take on the responsibility of the middle palace?" My virtuous concubine has been in charge of Fengyin for several years, and she has never seen any mistakes. ”

Murong Jing was about to say more, but was interrupted by the emperor raising his hand, "Of course, Yin'er has not been in good health in the past few years, otherwise she can share her worries for Concubine Xian." ”

Murong Yin'er reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, but she couldn't laugh.

"Despite this, the minister still begs the emperor to establish the queen as soon as possible and unify the six palaces, otherwise the disorder in the harem will mess with the sacred heart, and it will be useless in the political affairs of the previous dynasty!"

A group of courtiers who were collected by Murong Jing also got up and said, "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

The emperor waved his hand indifferently, "You Aiqing are worried about me so much, and I am very relieved. Next year is the year of the spring audition, when the draft girls will be selected to fill the harem. He paused slightly, stared at Murong Yin'er and said, "After the same book." ”

Murong Yin'er suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense muscles on her face suddenly relaxed. Yu Wenche just chuckled in his heart, Murong Jing was not drunk, and since he had rebelled, he was just acting for his daughter at this moment. If he wants to rebel, he will never wait until next year's spring election.

Because of the emperor's sentence "after the spring selection", I don't know how many women's hearts behind the bead curtain are messed up. Concubine Yang Yushu was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that this was the emperor's delaying strategy, and then she didn't pay attention to it anymore, but looked at Chu Xiuze's location from time to time.

Chu Xiuze was dressed in a dark blue round-necked silk dress, his hair was tied up with a headband, neat and neat, and his face was no longer as haggard as before.

The conversation between Emperor Shicai and Murong Jing, he heard it clearly word for word. But he is a person who is very good at restraining his emotions, and he has been cautious in his every move for nearly ten years.

"My lord, please use tea."

A palace maid suddenly walked behind him, Chu Xiuze looked deeply at the white jade porcelain tea cup, and then looked up at the palace maid, a smile appeared on his lips, and he took a few sips of tea.

He didn't deliberately look around, but he still felt a gaze fixed on him, as if he had only relaxed a little after he had drunk the tea.

Chu Xiuze rubbed his temples, and the tea didn't seem to have the effect of sobering up at all, but made him even more dizzy.

"Lord Lu, I'm not strong enough to drink, go out to breathe, and I'll come back later." Chu Xiuze reluctantly stood up and said to the official sitting next to him, his eyes were dizzy, and he walked out slowly.

As soon as he walked out of the main hall a few steps, a palace maid helped him, "My lord, you are drunk, the slave maid will help you to rest." ”

Chu Xiuze's cheeks were already slightly red, and he shook his head as if he was awakening, but in the end, he couldn't resist the powerful medicinal effect, so he let the palace maid help him go to the ear room.

After being pushed into the ear room, sure enough, there was already a beautiful carcass on the couch. The woman's long hair was languidly loose, and her clothes were open at the neck, revealing her crystalline creamy skin and mouthwatering breasts. Chu Xiuze walked in, sat beside her, brushed her long hair, and immediately sneered when he saw her face.

"Heaven is forgivable. and thou shalt not live. I have no grudge against you, you gave birth to Yu Wenche's eldest son and took away Wan'er's favor, I am happy to see it. But you shouldn't have humiliated Wan'er. Anyone who dares to make Wan'er sad and sad..."He leaned closer to Yuan Xingying's ear and sneered, "It's all damned!" ”

Yuan Xingying had already been stunned by the drug, so naturally she couldn't hear his words. Chu Xiuze saw the trick of Concubine Shu from the beginning, Yuan Xingying was so rampant in the past, how could she swallow her anger? After sending Su Wanqing to the cold palace, he will inevitably find another opportunity to deal with Yuan Xingying.

That's why he guided Concubine Shu to do this - making Yuan Xingying lose her virginity.

His eyes blurred, and the woman's face seemed to overlap into the countless times he had prayed for in his dreams. Chu Xiuze took off his robe, hugged his delicate body into his arms, and groaned, "Princess, you are so beautiful." ”
