Chapter Seventy-Nine◎ Fireworks on the Riverside

The lights on the riverside are dim, the painting boat on the lake is stagnant, the lotus lanterns float on the water, the stars are dotted, illuminating the originally dim riverside, a waning moon hangs in the sky, and the stars are shining like eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Everyone sat down in turn, clustered around Emperor Huaxiang, looking like an old man with children and grandchildren in an ordinary family.

The fireworks bloom in the sky, colorful, the most beautiful moment is fixed in people's hearts, and every bloom attracts a burst of exclamations from everyone.

"It's a pity that Yuan Xing will take a look at this fireworks in the future, and he should have kept them for a while longer." Emperor Huaxiang looked at the fireworks and couldn't help but think of the little prince who was far away in Dingzhou.

King Ping stood beside Emperor Huaxiang, leaned over and said, "Brother Huang Xu has something to do in Dingzhou, so he went back in such a hurry." If Your Majesty misses Xiao Shizi, why not let the imperial sister-in-law and Xiao Shizi come to live in Anping together, the environment here is also beautiful. ”

Emperor Huaxiang smiled, looked at the fireworks in the sky, sighed and said: "Oh, I wanted to keep them in Anping at the beginning, but I never thought that the princess misunderstood what I meant, and she also drew her own face and insisted on leaving." If I force them to stay, won't I let their wives be separated? ”

Chu Yurui didn't know what had happened in the past, and naturally he couldn't understand the conversation between King Ping and Emperor Huaxiang. It's just that she can see that Emperor Hua Xiang is reluctant to mention the past.

King Ping wanted to say something, but there was a low sound of pipa in the distance by the riverside, not in a hurry or slowly, like pearls falling into the jade plate.

Empress Huaxiang glanced at King Ping and taught him not to say more, so as not to displease Emperor Huaxiang.

King Ping stopped, and everyone quietly listened to the ethereal sound of the pipa, and a painting boat slowly walked to the riverside, and the tassels used to decorate it swayed from side to side with the painting boat, and the babbling and humming could be heard when they were close.

A woman, with a fallen horse bun, pear blossom white clothes, and a lotus on the cuffs that are not stained by mud, like an immortal in the sky, dances solo on the painting boat.

At the moment when the sound of the pipa was high, the water sleeves were thrown out, and the woman dancing alone on the painting boat was like a blooming lotus flower.

"Zheng-" At the end of the song, watch out for the painting, the sound of the pipa stopped, and the dancing water sleeves happened to fall to the ground fluttering at that moment, and the fireworks behind the woman bloomed again, and at this moment, the lotus lanterns on the river became her back.

"Good!" This water sleeve dance is light and beautiful, attracting everyone to applaud constantly.

The painting boat happened to be close to the riverside, and the woman Shi Shiran above made a salute, took off her veil, and looked at Emperor Huaxiang with eyes like a clear spring.

Chu Yurui suddenly felt a chill behind her, tilted her head sideways to take a look, and really saw Hua He's black face like carbon. Hua Hesu's eyes pierced Concubine Lian's heart like sharp swords, and although she was a little shrunken, she still mustered up the courage to look at Hua Hesu.

"Concubine Lian's dance is really like a frightening and graceful dragon!" Hua Xiang said this with a smile, praising Concubine Lian's beautiful dancing on the surface, but in fact, he already hated her in his heart.

Emperor Hua Xiang naturally heard the sound of these words, but as if he hadn't heard it, he held Concubine Lian's hand and said, "Concubine Lian has a heart."

What does it mean to have a heart? Do you want to prepare for the dance, or do you choose to dance at this time? Emperor Huaxiang's only one word and one look can make Concubine Lian feel uneasy.

She suddenly remembered what Hua Hesu had said to her-"How he killed her a few years ago, and what will happen to you a few years later." ”

Concubine Lian didn't know who the woman who was between Emperor Hua Xiang and Hua He Su was, but she knew that this was definitely a forbidden area that could not be stepped on.

Willow eyebrows, cinnabar moles, dotted lips, eyes like water, and a figure like a willow. This face is so similar to her back then, but she died and will never come back. She won't be as good as Concubine Lian now.

Emperor Hua Xiang waved his hand, "Reward." ”

Concubine Lian received the reward, retreated with some grievances, Hua Xianghou secretly shook her fists, and said a few words to the female officer beside her, and the female official got the order and left quietly.

When it was empty, Prince Xia Yang straightened his robe and said loudly: "The last time I saw this fireworks feast was on Chinese New Year's Eve. The fireworks on the riverside this time are really breathtaking. ”

Emperor Huaxiang, as the host, was naturally happy when he heard this, and replied to him with a kind word, but Prince Xiayang stepped forward, as if he had something to discuss with Emperor Huaxiang.

"Your Majesty has a heart, even the prince of Xiayang in this palace has seen it. Bringing us together today, I'm afraid it's not just to see the fireworks on the riverside? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked, including Chu Yurui.

Emperor Huaxiang was noncommittal, quietly waiting for Qi Zhiheng's next words.

"In the past 20 years, Huaxiang and Xia Yang have lived in harmony and never fought a battle. Presumably, the two countries have already formed a deep relationship, wouldn't it be wonderful if they could kiss each other? Qi Zhiheng smiled and said: "It's not a secret, this palace is infatuated with Princess Ningyang, and this time I came to Huaxiang from Xiayang thousands of miles away, and it was precisely to ask Emperor Huaxiang to approve this matter."

Before the words fell, Ning Yang, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly panicked, and looked at Bai Qishu behind the crowd with her eyes asking for help, but there were too many people, and her eyes couldn't see Bai Qishu's expression, only, she could only see the corners of her clothes.

Ningyang's fate was only in the hands of Emperor Huaxiang.

Emperor Hua Xiang knew in his heart that Prince Xiayang was here for his relatives, and he had already planned to do so, he chuckled, and the wrinkles on his brows appeared, like a kind old father marrying his daughter, "Since ancient times, isn't it a talented man with a beautiful woman?" Prince Xiayang's idea is very heartfelt. Although Ningyang is the righteous daughter of the queen, she is also the princess of my Huaxiang. This marriage will be handed over to the Ministry of Rites. ”

After saying that, he leaned over and shouted, "Su Qing."

Su Huai heard Emperor Huaxiang call him, and hurriedly took a step forward, "The minister is here." ”

"Lord Dou of the left waiter has not long stepped down, and the new left-hand waiter has just arrived in the Ministry of Rites, you, the right waiter, can't escape this time, ahhaha?" Emperor Huaxiang was half-joking, as if he was blaming Su Huai for ignoring the affairs of the court in the past.

Su Huai hurriedly saluted and said: "The minister is afraid, the matter that Your Majesty has explained, the minister will do his best to complete it."

"It's for the best." Emperor Hua Xiang's eyes were smiling, but he glanced at Bai Qishu beside Su Huai meaningfully.

When the banquet was over, Bai Qishu stopped Hua Hesu, who was about to leave.

"Uncle Ten Emperors, please stay!" Bai Qishu took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, and trotted to catch up with Hua Hesu.

Hua Hesu seemed to expect that she had something to find her, and she walked unhurriedly along the way, until Bai Qishu shouted to himself, and he didn't stop.

"It was the head of the Bai family." Hua Hesu looked unfazed, raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's so late, the head of the Bai family doesn't return to the house, what are you doing with this king?"
