15. Northern Qi |

When Gao Wei was no longer interested in her, and lay back in the arms of the two dancing girls to eat grapes, Yun Yao retreated to the banquet again.

King Lanling gave up some of his position slightly, nodded at her slightly, and motioned for her to sit next to him. Just now, the two stout maids came forward one on the left and one on the right, half-supported Yun Yao and half-framed, and pressed them beside King Lanling. It was only then that she discovered that the banquet was divided into separate seats, except for Gao Wei himself, the rest were occupied by the king and the princesses, scattered on both sides, leaving an open space in the middle.

The dancers danced in the clearing, and from time to time they were dragged into the arms of a king to give them some wine or delicacies.

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded from the corner, Sheng, Xiao, Gonghou, chime, qin, and so on, or soft or beautiful tunes flowed out of their fingertips, and the singers also sang the new words of Yuefu, which was completely a charming color.

Gao Wei didn't know what jokes he heard, and he couldn't stop shooting, laughing so hard that he fell in the arms of the dancers.

The two dancers were disheveled by Cushman Williams, and even their clothes were a little messy, and they dodged and dodged. King Boling on the right coughed lightly, suggesting that Gao Wei should not go too far. Gao Wei ignored him, still laughed wildly, and said repeatedly: "Interesting, interesting." His eyes wandered between King Lanling and Yun Yao, as if he had thought of something interesting.

Yun Yao's body stiffened, and she secretly thought in her heart, this prince should not make trouble again.

At this moment, someone took her hand and wrote in the palm of her hand, stroke by stroke.

The man's fingertips were covered with thin calluses, and his movements were rather slow, pausing slightly after each word before he could continue writing. Yun Yao turned her head sideways and saw the King of Lanling sitting in the middle of the banquet, looking at the golden bottle in front of him, his gaze did not shift by half a minute. But the hand he hid in the wide sleeve slowly wrote in the palm of her hand.

He writes in a book, with great patience and gentleness.

Yun Yao was a little surprised. She originally thought that the Northern Qi royal family would use a small seal, but now it seems that this is not the case?

King Lanling wrote in the palm of her hand: Don't be afraid, there is me.

His fingertips were a little cold, and those round and upright fonts fell on her palm, and the slightly cool temperature passed through her skin.

Yun Yao looked sideways at King Lanling, and suddenly felt a little sad in her heart. He is probably used to it, accustomed to the absurdity and arrogance of Gao Wei, even if Gao Wei will be the future emperor, an absurd and arrogant emperor, he is still forcing himself to get used to it.

A thought uncontrollably came to her mind: perhaps the death of King Lanling in the future was related to the prince of Great Qi.

She was sitting in the middle of the banquet, staring at the gold bottles and delicacies in front of her like the king of Lanling, but her mind had already drifted to Gao Wei. King Lanling was still writing stroke by stroke in the palm of her hand, but what he wrote, Yun Yao had no way to explore.

Gao Wei fell drunkenly into the arms of the dancing girl, laughing heartily.

The dancers fed him grapes and drank wine. Although the alcohol of Northern Qi is not high, it is the easiest to get drunk when drinking on an empty stomach. Impatiently, he pushed one of the dancers away, then put his feet in the arms of the other dancer, asked her to remove her shoes and socks, and rubbed his feet for him.

completely ignored the fact that all the people present were his uncles and brothers, and most of them were female dependents.

After the king of Lanling finished writing the last word, he slowly withdrew his hand, picked up the gold bottle and took a shallow sip.

The wide sleeves of the two overlapped each other, and the intricate dark gold lines spread on the sleeves, glowing slightly in the candlelight.

Under the dim candlelight, the dancers danced in the middle of the field. The red skirt dragged on the ground and quietly landed in the sound of silk and bamboo. The kings present were drunk one by one, and the princesses also left the scene in twos and threes, as if they were no longer strong enough to drink.

King Boling slapped his face, and the dancing girls in the audience saluted the prince, and then retreated like a tide.

A moment later a new group of dancing girls came in from outside, younger and more beautiful than the original, and as if they had recognized the prince, as soon as they entered the house, they all clinged to the prince and danced around him, and there was no lack of frivolity in their words.

Gao Wei laughed drunken and hazy: "Sure enough, it's a beauty, my uncle doesn't deceive me." ”

He looked at it for a moment, and then said regretfully: "It's a pity that the lonely age is not enough, otherwise I would have to taste this taste." ”

The dancers smiled coquettishly, gathered around Gao Wei, and persuaded him to eat and drink one by one. King Boling turned to look at him sideways and said, "If the prince likes it, then the uncle will give them to the prince." When the prince reaches the age of twelve, he will naturally be able to taste this taste. ”

Cushman and Wakefield said continuously: "Good, good, good!" ”

He said three good words in a row, and ordered the youngest and most beautiful dancing girl to pour him wine. When the dancers heard King Boling's words, they knew that the prince was their future master, so they all smiled and stuck to it.

Gao Wei took the hands of the dancing girls again, used some food and wine, and then said, "It's time to go back." If you stay in your uncle's mansion for a long time, I'm afraid you won't want to go back to the East Palace again, ha, haha......"

Then he pushed the case, staggered up and said, "Lone is very happy today, thank you uncle for your hospitality." Ignoring the crowd, he stumbled towards the door. King Boling made a color to the little servants again, and two of the little servants stepped forward to support the prince.

Suddenly, Gao Wei glanced over here, as if he was sneering, and as if he was a little jealous.

After the prince left, the banquet was much quieter, but the oppressive atmosphere finally faded. Yun Yao used a little food, some dishes and wine, and suddenly felt a little anxious, so she called two maids over and asked them to take her to the toilet.

The Boling Palace's mansion was full of rockeries and corridors, and the maids took Yun Yao around several times, but they couldn't find where the toilet was. Yun Yao was a little helpless, and she couldn't urge them to go faster, so she could only follow behind slowly. Suddenly, she heard some voices coming from the rockery, mixed with words like "Lanling King", "Prince", "Concubine Zheng", like two men.

And the conversation between the two men was mixed with the song of the singer.

Yun Yao looked at the two maids in front of her, and when she saw that they didn't notice her, she separated a faint shadow and floated over to look.

Sure enough, there were two men in royal robes, so drunk that they were helped outside by the singers to sober up. One of them was about thirty years old, and the other was no more than twenty years old, and both of them were born with sword eyebrows and extraordinary appearances.

One of them laughed and said, "You just met his princess?" ”

Another laughed and said, "I see." My cousin doesn't deceive me, and she is really a stupid woman by nature. ”

The previous man smiled: "It's rare that he Gao Changgong also has today." However, I heard that King Lanling was born brave, and I don't know if his princess can withstand it, hahahaha......" Yan patted the singer beside him, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to try it too?" ”

The singer responded coquettishly, dodging again and again.

The other laughed heartily and said, "Probably only the 'ignorant by nature' can stand it." Then he picked up another singer next to him, got up and walked into the gazebo. Bamboo curtains were hung on all sides of the pavilion, which was impermeable to the wind, and the sound of humbling came out after a while.

It is really full of the absurdity and beauty of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and everywhere is the appearance of the decline of the dynasty.

Yun Yao retreated helplessly, and a faint shadow floated back into her body. The two maids were unaware of it, and brought her to the ...... in a twist and turn This is a thatched house?! It's built more magnificently than the main house in front, this is actually a thatched house?!

She stayed for a long time, and finally got trembling and went inside to go to the bathroom.

Now there is rough straw paper, so going to the toilet is very smooth.

After going to the toilet and cleaning her hands, Yun Yao was led by the two maids again, and walked towards the front hall in a circle. When passing by the rockery pavilion just now, the singer's coquettish voice became louder and louder, mixed with the man's rough panting, obviously not over yet.

When she returned to the main hall, Yun Yao knew that the banquet in the mansion had dispersed.

The kings held their little servants in twos and threes, and walked towards the door, stumbling a few times from time to time. There were two others who were not yet tired, so they picked up the dancing girl next to them and opened the door of the inner room with one foot. The King of Lanling was still sitting in the banquet, holding a clear red wine, his eyes gloomy.

The golden bottle had been pinched and slightly deformed, and even the maids around him knelt on the ground, not daring to come out.

Five or six jars of wine rolled down here and there around him, all of them empty. You must know that before Yun Yao left the table just now, King Lanling only took two sips of wine, less than half a jar in total!

Why did you ...... all of a sudden?

Yun Yao walked to King Lanling's side and called the king softly.

When King Lanling saw that it was her, the gloomy color in his eyes slowly faded, and turned into helpless sadness.

Just now, King Hejian personally admitted that those things in the past were indeed the work of the queen's father. It was precisely because of this that the king of Hejian was able to easily get those letters and documents and burn them in front of him, and he did not feel distressed at all.

As for the reason......

King Hejian's original words were, "At that time, my father was already half an emperor, and there was a storm in the court, so what if he was wrong?" There was a slight disdain in his eyes, and some incomprehensible hatred. This kind of hatred was seen by King Lanling in the eyes of the former queen.

That year, the court had a storm, the royal family was in danger, and there were eggs under the nest.

Their father was the most powerful man in that year.

King Lanling stood up slowly, his dark royal robe brushed across the corner of the desk, and his figure staggered.

"Let's go home."
