Chapter 45: The Morning Light of the Orb
Shen Qing lowered her eyelashes lightly, and a deep sense of powerlessness struck, for an ancient person whose thoughts of three wives and four concubines were deep-rooted, she really didn't know how to explain it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lian Che's big hand pulled a few strands of scattered hair for her: "Don't worry, you are the only one I love in my heart, they are just tools, you can't eat their vinegar." ”
Shen Qing felt ridiculous, she really couldn't be jealous with them, because she didn't care at all. "But I don't like you, not at all."
Lian Mo's body stiffened for a moment while holding her, and suddenly vigorously inserted her into his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood: "I believe that one day, you will fall in love with me, don't reject me again, Qing'er, don't force me." ”
Shen Qing was a little overwhelmed by him, she only felt that Lian Che had become a little terrible now, his domineering was the same as that of his senior brother, but it was different, although the senior brother was domineering, she could feel that he would definitely not hurt her, and Lian Che, she vaguely noticed that there was unscrupulous ferocity in this domineering.
"Ahem... cough..."An inopportune cough sound, Lian Che didn't let go of her, only glanced at a place outside the pavilion: "Say." ”
"Your Highness, the Prime Minister and Captain Lin have arrived, look..."
Lian Che buried his head in the woman's hair and took a deep breath: "Qing'er, don't think about those who have or don't, you just have to wait to be my concubine." ”
Shen Qing also wanted to refute, but the man's rough thumb pressed her delicate red lips, and then couldn't help but rub it gently, a tingling sensation blurred from her lips, and the man whispered in her ear: "You are destined to be mine." ”
The man let go of her lightly, and strode away towards the outside of the pavilion, the sky was getting dark, and neither of them noticed that under the turquoise willow tree, a woman in a red dress leaned against the tree with a pale face, the pink silk handkerchief in her hand was stirred up, and her eyes were full of grief and pain.
Shen Qing sat in the pavilion for a while, until a little palace maid in emerald green clothes came with small steps: "Miss Shen, the banquet is about to start, please come to the table quickly." ”
Shen Qing turned her head and was about to get up, when the little palace maid was already holding her arm with both hands. "Miss Shen delays any longer, and the slave will be punished."
Shen Qing tugged at the corners of her mouth, when she couldn't feel the same under the arm she was holding?
At that time, he glanced at this palace maid more, and a faint smile blurred at the corner of his mouth: "Are all the palace maids in the East Palace so flower-like?" ”
The little palace maid was praised by someone, and her pretty face was slightly red: "Miss Shen is the real beauty, aren't you tormenting the slave maid when you say this?" ”
"No matter how beautiful your appearance is, you can't compete with youth, but you are a good age like a flower."
The little palace maid smiled and was slightly drunk, it can be seen that she is modest in her mouth, but she can't stop being complacent in her heart, although Shen Qing is very beautiful, but she is almost nineteen years old, she has already passed the best years of fifteen or sixteen years old, and she is still a widow, and she is young and sweet, why worry about not finding a rich and beautiful person?
"What's your name?"
The corners of the little palace maid's mouth curled up with a charming arc, and she lowered her head to hide the smugness in her heart: "The slave is dyed." ”
"Well, Sidzyme, a beautiful name."
Listening to Shen Qing's praise, Xi Ran's heart fluttered again, and he didn't notice the coldness that flashed in the woman's eyes.
When Shen Qing entered the table, the banquet had begun, Lian Che sat in the first place with a high-spirited face, and when he saw her come in, he looked at her with a deep smile, with a look of determination in his eyes.
Although Jin Yao has a lot of constraints on women, it is strange that men and women do not sit separately at every big banquet, and only sit according to their relatives.
A group of officials congratulated the people on the throne with joyful faces, and all kinds of toasts and praises emerged in endlessly, and the accumulation of literature and ink for ten years in the cold window was vividly played at this moment.
In this group of lively voices, the three princes sat in the banquet with a cold face that did not fit in place with a depressed and angry face, and the eyes of the usual gloomy owl were now like black clouds pressing down on the city, he drank the liquor on the table cup after cup, and accidentally caught a glimpse of the flattering person next to him who was flattering to Lian Che with a cold look flashing in his eyes.
Shen Qing's gaze met him unexpectedly, and she slowly bloomed with a brilliant smile, retracting her gaze in his puzzled look.
She didn't know much about the third prince, just because of the assassination of Xiaobei Garden last time, she couldn't have a good impression of him, but she didn't have hatred either.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the palace, and there are countless cases of brothers killing each other for the sake of supreme power, and she is just unlucky to accidentally get involved in their fight.
Just thinking about it, she suddenly felt a gaze shooting, she followed it back, Lian Mo, who was still dressed in white, sat there lightly, looking indifferent, but Shen Qing did not ignore the annoyance that flashed in his eyes, she was surprised in her heart, and she didn't bother to delve into it.
Rarely, the county lord of Bailing, who was sitting opposite her, did not show a jealous look this time, nor did he stare at her with resentful eyes, but just sat there quietly with a veil on, without saying a word.
Shen Qing sneered in her heart, maybe she was waiting for the good show that was about to start at this time, but it was not so easy to see her good show.
After the toast is sung, it is time for the marquis of all kinds of officials to give gifts, and in front of them are some official gifts, in order to leave a good impression on the new crown prince, each of them has taken out their own treasures, which can be described as an eye-opener.
However, in order to avoid being criticized, the gifts of all officials are precious but not expensive, and the real boutiques are in the hands of several princes with fiefdoms.
"The Marquis of Northern Yu presents a purple bottle glass Baguio cup."
The waiter took the white jade box presented by the presenter, and presented it to Lian Che with both hands, Lian Che stretched out his hand and slowly opened the jade box, and a glorious jade cup appeared in front of him, the cup sat with a faint purple, and the body of the cup was green and transparent, like green water surging under the light, and the stars sprinkled on the lake.
In the exclamation of everyone, Lian Che closed the jade box.
"The Marquis of Beiyu has a heart, and the palace likes it very much."
Seeing that Lian Che was satisfied, the Marquis of Beiyu thanked him and respectfully retreated.
"The Marquis of Xiling presents the morning light pearl of Qionghai."
The county lord of Bailing stood up elegantly, holding a square mahogany carved moire box in both hands, raised his hands above his head, and walked to Lian Che respectfully, the waiter took the box from her hand, and gently opened it in front of Lian Che, everyone looked at it fixedly, and gasped.
Lian Che frowned slightly, and chuckled: "The treasure of the Marquis of Xiling is interesting, can you tell me what is the meaning of giving this palace an empty box?" ”
The Marquis of Xiling was shocked when he heard this, he walked to the front of the hall in a few steps, took the mahogany box, and his face was full of disbelief, "This... This is impossible, I obviously put the morning light bead in this box with my own hands, how can it be an empty box? ”
