This time, Lou Xiao didn't get any moths, a box of gold and silverware, a box of jade, and a box of furs and other things, saying that it was a New Year's tribute, or a gift. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Duanmu Jue glanced at Sha Baiyan, saw her squint her eyes slightly, and knew that she was not interested, so he signaled to Xia Ninglian.

Ning Lian and others carried the box out together, and Lou Xiao stepped forward and arched his hand: "Little gift, may the Emperor and Queen of Daling be two full moons." ”

Duanmu Jue nodded, and Sha Baiyan smiled and took it in time: "It should be the palace that sends this to the king and queen, and your newlywed Yan'er will naturally be happy." ”

"Cheng Daling Empress Jiyan." Sikong Yinya smiled slightly, "In addition, there is a small item that I want to present to the queen mother." ”

When Lou Xiao heard this, she frowned and turned her head to look at her, but Duanmu Jiu nodded slightly, and Sikong Yinya said again: "When I first saw the queen's mother, the courtier's wife felt happy, I don't know if I can talk to the mother in private?" ”

Sha Baiyan let out a soft "ah", looked at Duanmu Jian a little unexpectedly, Duanmu Yan pinched her hand without changing his face, and said, "After the banquet, I will talk to the queen." ”

"Okay." Sikong Yinya smiled slightly, dignified and generous.

After entering the table, Lou Xiao picked up the wine glass, as if he was careless, but in fact, he said in a very stern tone: "Why doesn't this king know that you also prepared a special gift for Queen Daling." ”

"I didn't have it," Sikong Yinya stroked the corner of her skirt, "but as soon as I saw the queen's mother, I felt happy, and I felt that the queen's face was tight, so I wanted to be close to her." ”

Lou Xiao's expression couldn't be maintained, he turned his head and looked at Sikong Yinya dissatisfied: "You'd better be honest, if something goes wrong in this big ridge, no one can protect you." ”

Sikong Yinya snorted: "Don't worry, the king can rest assured, the concubine knows it." Even though...... and neither bothered the king to bother to protect his concubines. ”

Her eyes turned wonderfully, and the ridicule that slipped through her could even be seen clearly by Lou Xiao.

Lou Xiao's hand suddenly clenched into a fist, and he finally knew what was wrong.

Since Sikong Yinya woke up, she has been such lukewarm and ignorant of him, and when she looked at him several times, her eyes were naked ridicule.

That's right, it's a mockery, the same as now.

Lou Xiao did something bad in the end, although Duanmu Jiu was the mastermind, but he didn't do anything except say a few words, and even helped Duanmu Jiu to watch Sikong Yinya drink medicine.

Now, Sikong Yinya knows it, and she hates him, but it's normal.

Lou Xiao raised his glass and drank it all, the wine was cool, but the entrance was bitter, he tilted his head slightly, looked at Sikong Yinya's face that had lost a lot of weight, moved his lips, but didn't say anything.

Say what? They were just forcibly tied to a boat.

Lou Xiao poured another glass, but Sikong Yinya raised the quilt at the right time, with a smile: "The concubine respects the king for a cup, and it will ...... in the future Take care of yourselves, Your Majesty. ”

Lou Xiao didn't understand what he meant, but he still raised his glass and drank it all again.

By the end of the banquet, Lou Xiao had drunk a lot unconsciously, although his consciousness was still clear, but his feet were already a little vain.

He watched Sikong Yinya walk to Sha Baiyan's side, talk to her, and go to the west side hall together, but he couldn't stop him, for some reason, a feeling of unease suddenly rose in his heart.

"King of Northern Xia, since the queen and my queen have something to say, the king of Northern Xia might as well go to the side to take a rest first." Duanmu Jue turned around and said.

Ning Lian had already cleverly led Lou Xiao to the side hall on the other side, but Lou Xiao stood still and looked at Duanmu Juan: "Coincidentally, this king also has something to do, ask the emperor for advice." ”

"Okay." Duanmu Jue nodded, and went to the East Side Hall with Lou Xiao.

As soon as he entered, Lou Xiao sat directly on the chair, picked up the teacup on the side and took a sip, and then looked at Ning Lian: "Go out first." ”

Ning Lian naturally did not move.

Duanmu Jue sat on the upper seat and did not speak.

Lou Xiao looked at Duanmu Jue with a smile: "If you think that it doesn't matter if what I say to you next is heard, then this king naturally doesn't care." ”

"Well, let's talk about it." It really doesn't matter if Duanmu Jiu is there, anyway, the hall is full of his people.

Lou Xiao showed a meaningful smile: "Then you are not afraid, what did Sikong Yinya and the queen say?" ”

"Oh? But I don't know what they say to make me afraid. Duanmu Jue leaned on the back of his chair, relieved.

Lou Xiao snorted and stood up: "Then the emperor will go with this king to see what they are talking about." ”

Duanmu Jue raised his eyebrows slightly, with some banter in his eyes: "It turned out that the King of Northern Xia wanted to know, could it be that he was afraid of the King of Northern Xia?" ”

"Please also pay attention to the title, this king is the king of Northern Xia, not the king of Northern Xia." Lou Xiao said in a deep voice.

Duanmu Jiu didn't answer, only stood up: "Let's go." ”

The two took the door of the west side of the hall, Ning Lian consciously took the palace people away, Duanmu Jue just wanted to stretch out his hand to push the door, but was stopped by Lou Xiao.

"You don't want to hear what they're talking about first?"

Duanmu Jue snorted lightly: "I never do this villain's thing. ”

Lou Xiao smiled slightly, didn't speak, just stood at the door, and listened.

But there was silence.

Lou Xiao frowned, and glanced at Duanmu Jue in confusion, but Duanmu Jue looked like a gentleman, and he didn't show any intention of eavesdropping.

Lou Xiao spat on him in his heart, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, but someone replied, "Please come in." ”

It turned out to be Sikong Yinya's voice.

Duanmu Jue's eyes narrowed, he stretched out his hand to push open the door, and walked in quickly, only to see Sha Baiyan sitting there dignified, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty......" Sha Baiyan blinked and looked at Duanmu Jue, a little at a loss.

Duanmu Jue sat beside her: "Doesn't the queen have a gift for you?" ”

"Hmm." Sha Bai stretched out her hand, just a piece of silk cloth, but she covered her hands and sweated.

Lou Xiao's eyes froze, Duanmu Jue picked up the piece of silk cloth, looked at it for a long time, and didn't embroider a flower or grass or anything, I really didn't know what it meant, so he asked Sha Baiyan: "What is this?" ”

"It's a token of our empty family." Sikong Yinya said lightly.

Duanmu Jue raised his eyebrows and looked at her, didn't he say that the brand was a token? Why is there another one, and it's so normal?

"Emperor Daling, don't look at this as just a piece of cloth, if it is a person from our empty family, there is naturally a way to identify it." Sikong Yinya seemed to know what Duanmu Jiu was thinking, and explained.

Sha Baiyan picked Duanmu Jiu's ear and whispered, "She just showed it to her concubine, but the fire couldn't be burned through...... She also said that the concubine took this to Northern Xia and had no worries about food and clothing. ”

Sikong Yinya stood with her head held high, not caring at all about Sha Baiyan whispering in front of her.

And Lou Xiao's face became more and more ugly.

Duanmu Jiu chuckled and looked at Sikong Yinya: "What do you want?" ”

Sikong Yinya wanted to save his life, so he gave him the weapons that Sikong had secretly built over the years; It's impossible to ask for nothing like this at this time, right?

Sikong Yinya glanced at Lou Xiao, bit her lip, and knelt down directly to Duanmu Jue and said, "The minister's wife requests to make peace with the king of Northern Xia." ”

"Sikong Yinya!" Lou Xiao's eyes widened, completely unable to believe what she had heard.

"Ask for the permission of the Emperor of Daling." Sikong Yinya didn't look at Lou Xiao, and continued, "If you can, Sikong Yinya is willing to stay in Daling and not return to Northern Xia." ”

Duanmu Jue raised his eyebrows slightly, and Sha Baiyan asked strangely, "Why?" Didn't you just get married? ”

"Queen Mother, you and the Emperor of Daling are in love, but the wife and the king of Northern Xia are not half gracious, and they ......" Sikong Yinya bit her lip, "There is only the name of husband and wife, and there is no father." ”

Duanmu Jue glanced at Lou Xiao, as if he was puzzled, Sha Baiyan tilted his head: "It's okay, it's good if the days are long." ”

"But, the pillow man of the minister's wife, he wants my life!" Sikong Yinya gritted her teeth and said, while looking at Lou Xiao unabashedly, her eyes were full of hatred.

Lou Xiao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, and looked at Duanmu Juan: "The emperor knows it. ”

Duanmu Jue nodded: "According to what you say, you really shouldn't be forced to be together." ”

"However, you are also the king and queen of the Northern Xia Kingdom, can you reconcile?" Sha Baiyan grabbed Duanmu Juan's sleeve and asked, "Didn't you say that the emperor and queen couldn't get along?" There is only the abolition of the queen, there is no harmony, and the abolition of the queen also has to live in the palace? ”

She'd had thought about it before, so she knew.

Obviously, Duanmu Jiu also remembered this, and his face turned grim: "They are different." Then he squeezed Sha Baiyan's hand warningly, and although the next sentence was not spoken, the meaning was conveyed -

That's what we are, they're not.

It's like if he wants to marry Sha Baiyan, he doesn't need anyone's approval, but Northern Xia, as a vassal state, needs his consent from Emperor Daling to establish a queen.

Similarly, if Daling interferes in the palace affairs of Northern Xia, although it is a little annoying, as long as Duanmu Jue is tough, Lou Xiao can really only leave Sikong Yinya behind and go back to re-elect.

Sikong Yinya kowtowed: "Queen Mother, you are also a woman, think about it, the person who sleeps in the same bed every night wants your life...... I don't know what the mother thinks, anyway, the minister's wife doesn't dare to go back. ”

Lou Xiao snorted, noncommittal, and only said to Duanmu Jue: "This king has no objection, let her be." ”

"Sikong Yinya," Duanmu Jue narrowed his eyes and looked at Sikong Yinya, "Then why do you want to stay in Daling?" ”

"For the safety of the courtier's wife." Sikong Yinya replied loudly without hesitation, "In Daling, at least no one dares to take the life of a minister's wife casually!" But back in Northern Xia, who knows what will happen! ”

Lou Xiao's eyes were heavy, and he looked at Sikong Yinya and sneered: "Idiot." ”

But he didn't want to, Duanmu Jue said: "Okay, then I will save your life again." ”

Anyway, he wanted Sikong Yinya to disappear before because she and Sha Baiyan had a little imagination, and she married Lou Xiao again, which made him very unhappy, but at this time, the two could not be husband and wife, and Sikong Yinya also cleverly covered up all the parts of her and Sha Baiyan's imagination, so Duanmu Jiu was willing to obey her wishes for the things she sent one after another.

Sikong Yinya was overjoyed, thanked her in her mouth, and kowtowed to Duanmu Jue and Sha Baiyan, but Lou Xiao stopped in front of her, with a smile on her face: "In this way, I'm afraid it's not good." ”

"How is it bad? You want her life, does she want to go back with you? Sha Baiyan couldn't help it for a while, so he said it first.

Lou Xiao looked at her, and her face softened: "This king is just worried about the reputation of the Emperor of Daling. When he saw the new queen of the vassal country, he couldn't hold back his own wishes, and forced him to leave behind...... Spread it out like this, tsk......"

"But that's not the case!" Sha Baiyan's eyes widened.

Lou Xiao smiled: "But what the world sees will be like this." ”

"You ......" sand white sand knotted.

Duanmu Jue grabbed Sha Baiyan and stroked her back: "The new queen of Northern Xia went to Daling to worship, but who expected that the water and soil were not adaptable, and she was killed by a wind and cold. The king of Northern Xia was grief-stricken, and I and the queen were very considerate, and gave 100 cattle and sheep each, 100 stones of grain, 1,000 taels of silver, and 15 beauties of the king of Northern Xia. The king of Northern Xia was grateful, thanked him and returned home. ”

"Such an idea...... Lou Xiao laughed, "It's still worth the king's gratitude, thank you?" ”

"After all, the king of Northern Xia is a man with a conscience." Duanmu Jiu is not slow, not sick.

Sikong Yinya frowned slightly, if this is the case, then she is a dead person...... However, it can also get rid of the aftermath forever: "The identity of the courtier's wife ......"

"The surname Sikong can't be used anymore." Duanmu said.

Sikong Yinya was stunned for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "It's okay." ”

At the beginning, Sikong's family sent her to the draft, also because she was just the right age, if there were other girls, I was afraid that this honor would not fall on her head - but unfortunately she didn't think it was an honor.

Even waited until she was named queen, the will came down, she could get the silk cloth and the brand, and later her father told her that the Sikong family also had a cellar outside the city, all of which were scattered weapons over the years, so that she could find an opportunity to dedicate herself to the king, and even for herself, but also for the Sikong family to invite a favor.

Now, these things are also useful.

Sikong Yinya sneered for a long time and said, "Then my name will be Si Yinya." After speaking, he took off his clothes and bowed: "The people's daughter Si Yinya sees the emperor, the queen!" ”

"Okay, let's get up." Duanmu Jue raised his hand, and Sha Baiyan took out a pair of bracelets with a smile, only to sing "Daling welcomes you" in unison.

Sikong Yinya, now called Si Yinya, accepted the bracelet of Sha Baiyan, and didn't know whether it was excited or a little sad, so he only choked up and thanked him, and stood up with his head down.

Sha Baiyan began to be a little unbearable, she was a good queen, but now she has become a people's daughter, and her family and country can't go back, so she thought for a while, and asked Duanmu Juan: "Can the concubine recognize her as a righteous sister?" ”

"Whatever you want." Duanmu Jue's eyes are gentle, and his Tian Tian is always so kind.

Sha Baiyan turned his head with a smile and looked at Si Yinya, who was a little incredulous: "Then are you willing?" ”

"The folk girl is willing!" Si Yinya is not stupid! A girl with no name who can only wander by herself, and the righteous sister of the queen of the dynasty, how to choose, at a glance!
