Although Yuan Xiao has shown his good attitude of changing when he knows his mistakes, in order to fill the injustice in his heart and appease his emotions, and also to show his determination to get along with him in the future, Yuan Chengcheng still held a small birthday banquet for him.

In addition to the ** concubines and civil and military ministers, out of a mentality of making amends, Yuan Chengcheng also invited several old ministers who "returned to their hometowns", including the original prime minister.

The old prime minister is also in his fifties this year, and he has been working hard with the former king since he was young, just like Luo Ziqi assisted the emperor in the cold night, he is indispensable in all internal and external wars, and it can be regarded as hard work. But human nature is so strange, in the most difficult time, he followed the previous king with hard work, and never cared about his own gains and losses; But after the world was calmed, after the previous kings rewarded him with endless glory and wealth and supreme power, he became greedy and insufficient.

If the first king had a son as capable as the first king, then he had nothing to say. But the first king allowed ** to brutalize the king's heir for the sake of beauty, and disregarded the safety of the world, so he couldn't suppress so much dissatisfaction in his heart. Later, his son Wen Taowuluo, the first king had no heirs, he thought that this might be his son's opportunity, but the first king preferred to find a distant relative from the street who was several generations away from him than to mention his son, and this resentment escalated into resentment.

He and Yuan Xiao have been fighting openly and secretly in the past few years, he is not sure how much Yuan Qingcheng knows, maybe he really doesn't know, or maybe he actually knows just pretending not to know, but so what? Before Yuan Kejin died, he led his ministers to repeatedly force the palace, Yuan Chengcheng saw it, she didn't know how much credit he made for Huaguo back then, she only knew that he was plotting against the ......

Just when the old prime minister fell into his own thoughts, he had already arrived at the door of the birthday banquet unconsciously, and the ministers who arrived first were saluting and talking to Yuan Chengcheng who was standing in the hall.

Yuan Chengcheng also saw the old prime minister at this time, and saw that he seemed to be dozens of years old in a year, Yuan Chengcheng's heart was not without guilt, she knew that Yuan Xiao was too ruthless to the prime minister's party. But after all, the world is Yuan Xiao's world, and the government is also Yuan Xiao's government, she can supervise but has no right to interfere.

But when Yuan Chengcheng tried to make herself think with a clear conscience, she still couldn't help but be empty-hearted. Because she can't deny that her laissez-faire attitude towards Yuan Xiao's decision, in fact, in some ways, there is always a sense of pleasure of revenge......

"The old prime minister has arrived, take a seat!" Yuan Chengcheng tried his best to be more generous, and welcomed the old prime minister with a smile.

In view of what he has been going through, the old prime minister was actually panicked before he saw Yuan Chengcheng, he was not sure how much Yuan Chengcheng hated him, and even at this birthday banquet, he was even ready to be humiliated, but Yuan Chengcheng's enthusiastic attitude obviously flattered him.

"Ministers, ministers......" Thinking of what Yuan Kejin did during his serious illness, as well as the tolerance and kindness of the previous king to him over the years, the old prime minister was ashamed and ashamed, and stammered when he spoke, "The minister is ashamed ......"

Yuan Qingcheng smiled: "When the first king was here, he was always the prime minister before and after the saddle, if you want to talk about hard work, who would dare to say the second if the prime minister present does not say the first?" The prime minister doesn't need to excuse himself, just take a seat! ”

The old prime minister couldn't shirk it, so he had to sit next to the seat of Yuan Chengcheng with a red face. At this time, Yuan Xiao also arrived, and everyone who had just taken a seat hurriedly got up and bowed. Yuan Xiao glanced at the old prime minister next to Yuan Chengcheng, and snorted with contempt, his subordinates were defeated!

Yuan Chengcheng glared at Yuan Xiao viciously and asked him to restrain himself, but Yuan Xiao turned his head in disdain, pretending not to see it. Although Yuan Chengcheng was angry, she was helpless, she looked at the old prime minister with an embarrassed face, hoping that his old eyes were dizzy and he didn't see the look on Yuan Xiao's face. But the old prime minister looked indifferent, I don't know if I didn't see it or I didn't care if I had expected it.

Like every birthday banquet, at the beginning, the host of the birthday banquet has to say a few paragraphs and then announce the start of the birthday banquet, and then the singers dance, silk and bamboo singing, so lively.

But it was obviously extremely cheerful music, but when he heard Yuan Chengcheng's ears, there was endless sadness. It's only been more than three years, but the grand occasion of that year is gone forever, did my father expect the sad scene now? That's why at the end of the birthday banquet, he said in such a sad tone, "Disperse, disperse"?

For three years, she spent seventeen years in the palace without feeling any change, but in just three years, the whole world has been turned upside down. Her father, sister, and brother-in-law are gone, she and Shangguan Jingxuan have changed from strangers to confidants, she and Hongchan have become suspicious of each other from good sisters, and the ** who was still messing around on the street at that time became the new King Hua, and the cousin sitting at the opposite table became mortal enemies......

Yuan Chengcheng unconsciously looked at the position where Huangfu Yehan had sit, at that time he still ignored his love, she always wanted to please him, but he never refused to give her a good face, and even later made a private agreement with her for life on a moonlit night It was half wishful and half expedient.

At that time, he didn't love her, but when he did, they could only go further and further......

The person sitting in the original position of His Royal Highness Huangfu Yehan saw Yuan Qingcheng staring at him intently, his eyes were sometimes affectionate and sometimes melancholy, unpredictable, he couldn't guess what the princess meant, and couldn't help but fidget. The princess kept staring at him, did he do something wrong, or did the princess suddenly think that he was actually not bad and wanted to recruit him......

This person's idea of being a colt didn't expect that the word "pony" was frightened back by a sharp gaze from above, Yuan Xiao Tie looked at Yuan Qingcheng with a blue face, and he was very sure that that person would not live long!

At this time, a minister of His Royal Highness suddenly proposed: "Your Majesty has been on the throne for so long, and the ** has almost been filled, but the queen's position has been undecided. ”

As soon as this person's proposal came out, it was immediately echoed by many ministers below, in fact, most of these ministers who echoed had daughters or relatives who were concubines in the palace, Yuan Xiao was lustful and liked sweet words, so that every concubine in the palace and even the lowest maids felt that they might be queens.

And the blind self-confidence of the ** woman obviously added a lot of confidence and determination to the ministers' proposal. In the face of the courtiers' eager expectations, Yuan Xiao didn't react much, just stared at Yuan Chengcheng on the side wordlessly......
