Today is the emperor's birthday, and the emperor held a banquet in the palace to entertain civil and military officials. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Liu Yan helped Su Yixuan sort out his clothes, frowned and asked, "The emperor invited a banquet for civil and military officials, but my father was sick and couldn't go, so you have to be careful when you go to the palace." ”
"What's so terrible about having a lady with you? Madame should be careful. ”
Liu Yan smiled faintly: "With my husband by my side, I'm not afraid." ”
Wang leaned against the door, saw Liu Yan and Su Yixuan going out together from a distance, couldn't help but feel depressed, and snorted: "It's really better to do well than to be alive, we are the ones who suffer on weekdays, but they are the ones who are in the limelight!" ”
"Don't complain, grandmother, this is also something that can't be helped, it's the emperor's will!"
What is the emperor's will, even if there is no emperor's will, I'm afraid he will let him go, sister-in-law, it's really different! In the future, they will have a grandchild or something, won't they have no status in this family?
It's just that his husband takes care of the overall situation, for the sake of the family's face, he wants her to say that breaking up the family as soon as possible is the right way, so as not to be burdened by Su Yixuan, and in the end they won't get anything.
entered the palace again, because of him by his side, he had a bottom in his heart.
The autumn wind was trembling, and Su Yixuan gathered her cloak for her: "Be careful not to freeze." ”
Before the words fell, a light cough suddenly came.
Liu Yan turned her head and saw that it was Liu Zhenghe, and hurriedly saluted: "Daddy." ”
"What kind of system is this court?" Liu Zhenghe was a little displeased.
"My sister and brother-in-law have a deep relationship, it should be like this, why should my father care?" Liu Qing said lightly.
Liu Yan only smiled faintly and did not speak, but her smile was difficult to hide its sweetness.
Su Yixuan said with a smile: "It's been cold recently, I shouldn't have taken her out to be cold, but my father's life is hard to disobey, and I ask my father-in-law to forgive me." ”
As soon as he said this, Liu Zhenghe didn't want to say anything, and then looked at the useful appearance of his daughter, Liu Zhenghe shook his head, and said secretly, he should not meddle in the affairs of the young couple.
Liu Zhenghe strode away, Liu Yan gave Su Yixuan a look, and Su Yixuan willingly followed.
Liu Yan and Liu Qing were left to follow unhurriedly behind, and Liu Yan held her hand: "I saw my sister last time, I see that my sister is not in good spirits, is my sister better?" ”
Liu Qing nodded: "It's much better, I'm sorry for you." ”
Yu was happy to talk and stopped, but here was not as free as at home, she didn't dare to say more, she could only sigh.
Liu Yan heard the sigh of Yule at the tip of her ear, and looked at Liu Qing carefully, although she applied rouge gouache to cover it up, she still saw a trace of tiredness and inadequacy, thinking that things were not getting better.
"My sister has always been like a mirror, and my sister is afraid that it will be useless to persuade her, so I can only say that if my sister needs my sister's help if she has any difficulties, my sister will not refuse."
Liu Qing nodded knowingly: "I know." ”
The place where the banquet was held was really Qingxiang Palace, and Liu Yan attended as Mrs. Su, so she naturally sat beside Su Yixuan, and Su Yixuan represented Su Guogong, so she and Liu Qing were not far away.
The banquet had not yet started, several people gathered together in twos and threes to chat, Liu Qing was originally going to come to Liu Yan, and did not want to be called away by Fang Ningyan halfway.
Liu Yan didn't like this kind of occasion, so she didn't want to say much, and only quietly observed everyone.
This banquet was so grand that even King Liang was invited.
King Liang had been living in his fiefdom before, rarely going out, and in previous years, he only gave some gifts, but he didn't expect that this time he would come thousands of miles to congratulate him on his birthday.
There is a man sitting next to King Liang, this man is born with red lips and white teeth, and he is a little more beautiful than a woman, it is rumored that King Liang is a broken sleeve, and even the princess is a man, Liu Yan has only heard of it in her previous life, but she has seen it in this life, and she can't help but look at it twice.
Xu was too unscrupulous when she looked at her, and the man looked at her with constricted eyes, and suddenly smiled at her.
Liu Yan was embarrassed and hurriedly turned her gaze.
Seeing that several of the positions were still empty, Liu Yan asked with some curiosity.
Su Yixuan lowered his voice and said, "This time it is said that Xiliang also sent someone to congratulate him, and it must have been left for Xiliang's envoy." ”
Xiliang messenger? If so, it's no wonder that the cups and plates used at that table are different.
Just as she was thinking about it, Princess Xihe came over: "Yan'er, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Liu Yan slowly stood up and saluted: "Princess Xihe." ”
Xihe glanced at Su Yixuan and said with a smile: "Congratulations, you married a thoughtful Ruyi Langjun." ”
It's just a matter of saying that he is a wishful man, but what do you say is quite thoughtful? Are you saying that Su Yixuan is deep in thought and deep in the city?
Liu Yan smiled: "Thank you princess for your praise, he ...... is indeed a wishful husband, and he had to thank Xihe for the help of Princess Xi at the beginning, otherwise Yan'er would not have been able to marry such a good person. ”
If she hadn't been in the way, Su Yixuan would not have acted so quickly.
Xihe's face changed, and he was a little displeased.
Liu Yan said with a smile: "Yan'er heard that the emperor has decreed that the princess will be married, and the princess and Fang Weizheng are really a pair made in heaven, congratulations to the princess." ”
Xi He only smiled faintly, Fang Weizheng was wronged but didn't dare to say it, and she later learned that Fang Weizheng was actually caught at the door of the Qinglou at that time, which really made her face gloomy, if it wasn't for her own choice, she would have been replaced.
"Thank you." Xihe turned and left.
Liu Yan sat down slowly, and a light smile on her lips seemed to be absent.
Su Yixuan grabbed her hand under the table: "I'm afraid that you accidentally touched the princess's scales when you said this, and the princess was not very happy." ”
Liu Yan glanced at Xi and the princess, she didn't know that Fang Weizheng disappeared that day because he was arrested by the city guards at the gate of the Qinglou, but what she said was right, this Fang Weizheng looks decent on weekdays, but he does that kind of thing behind his back, Xi and Princess look gentle, but they will also do some hypocritical things that harm others and benefit themselves.
Aren't they a match made in heaven?
"I'm not wrong."
Outside the door, there was a shout: "The emperor has arrived." ”
Everyone returned to their places and saluted.
Liu Yan lowered her eyes, only to see a wisp of bright yellow floating in front of her, and heard the emperor's serious voice in her ears: "Flat." ”
Everyone sat down, and only then did the eunuch shout: "The envoy of Xiliang has come to see you." ”
Everyone turned their eyes to the door.
At the door, a touch of bright white came, like white clouds under the blue sky, bright and impossible to ignore.
White is the national color of Xiliang.
Xiliang is located in the west, with a long stretch of snow-capped mountains, which are frozen for half of the year.
White is their favorite color.
Liu Yan looked at the person's face fixedly, wanting to see who it was, but she was slightly stunned, it was actually him!
Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo's life is extremely beautiful, his skin is as white as snow, but it is not pale, but the soft white in the ice and snow, which makes people look comfortable.
It is said that this is a person who does not learn and has no skills, because he is extremely beautiful, and he often attracts the attention of women, throws fruits, and kills Wei Jue, which is not enough to describe his appearance.
Outsiders only know that this is a very beautiful man, but they don't know that his temperament is even more gentle, Liu Yan was trapped in the Xiliang Palace in his previous life and had the honor to see him twice, one of which was when he was helping an injured bird heal, which is really inconsistent with his usual lack of learning and skills.
Liu Yan sighed in her heart and sighed a pity, when she saw him for the second time, this person was already unrecognizable, that face didn't know how many knives had been cut, Ruo Xiuzhu's body was also broken, but she suddenly remembered the smile on his lips, as gentle as now.
Later, she learned that he was tortured like that by Ouyang Ji, as for why, she didn't know, and she didn't have time to dig deeper, because Ouyang Ji wanted to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys at that time, but unfortunately he was a chicken and she was a monkey.
Such a good beauty, she was tortured to death by Ouyang Ji, it was really pitiful.
Liu Yan couldn't help but clench Su Yixuan's hand, Ouyang Shuo's appearance before his death made her have nightmares for several days, and now she shuddered when she thought about it.
"Don't be afraid, there's me." Su Yixuan comforted softly.
Ouyang Shuo had already walked to the center of the main hall and saluted according to Xiliang's etiquette: "Congratulations to Emperor Jingyue, blessed as the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan." ”
"Prince Shuo has come from afar and worked hard, give me a seat."
Ouyang Shuo sat down on the vacant seat generously, his eyes swept in the hall, and involuntarily fell on Liu Yan's body.
The girl looked at him with sympathy from the beginning, and she didn't know what he had done, so that this girl had such sympathy.
When his eyes touched her long hair pulled up, it turned out to be a lady.
Although there are more women around him, but he will never touch other people's women, it is a pity to think about it, this lady is extremely handsome, if you marry back, I am afraid that you can also have a handsome child......
Liu Yan didn't know that because of his sympathy for him in his previous life, he had some wonderful thoughts, and only secretly sighed that he died miserably.
The vocal music started, and the party sang and danced above the banquet.
Su Yixuan took advantage of the effort to serve her vegetables, and teased: "Madame is really a disaster, it's better not to go out in the future." ”
Liu Yan wondered: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"First Yunmo, then Xiliang, the prince, although a person has a good skin, Mrs. must stop in moderation."
Is Su Yixuan saying that she is too unscrupulous?
Liu Yan chuckled: "Could it be that the husband is jealous?" ”
Su Yixuan nodded solemnly: "If Madam looks at it again, she will really be jealous for her husband." ”
Liu Yan looked at him and said with a smile: "Yan'er has never seen her husband jealous, so she really wants to take a look." ”
Su Yixuan was displeased, and Liu Yan pursed her lips and chuckled.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Su Yixuan said softly: "It's useless for you to see, you can't escape from the palm of my hand in this life." ”
Because he was too close, the warm breath of his speech spilled into her neck, Liu Yan shrunk her neck and gently pushed him: "Don't make trouble, I just looked at them just and was just curious, is the one next to King Liang really his wife?" ”
Su Yixuan shook his head: "I don't know, but King Liang generously took him by his side, I'm afraid." ”
Liu Yan nodded and gave him the dishes: "Don't take care of me all the time, I'm afraid that I will be criticized again if I am seen." ”
Su Yixuan was displeased: "You are my wife, I should hold you in my hand and feel pain in my heart, if I look at other people's eyes in everything, you and I don't want to live." ”
Liu Yan listened to the sweetness in her heart, but still pointed to the position next to her, signaling him not to keep his eyes on himself.
Only then did Su Yixuan notice that the person sitting next to him was actually square.
Fang Weizheng didn't know that Su Yixuan had cheated him last time, so he said with a drink: "Brother Su, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Su Yixuan nodded calmly: "Congratulations to Brother Fang for being able to hug the beauty." ”
"I should congratulate Brother Su, Brother Su is really vigorous and resolute, which is admirable."
As he was talking, someone said, "Su Yixuan, I respect you." ”
Su Yixuan raised his eyes and saw that the opposite seat was sitting at Princess Yunhe, who was looking at him with a wine glass, looking at him without saying a word, Yunhe smiled: "You don't even dare to drink a glass of wine, right?" ”
Su Yixuan turned her eyes to look at Liu Yan, but found that she didn't care about herself at all, she just blindly ate, as if she didn't pay attention to this matter at all.
Before, he was still paying attention to him and Fang Weizheng talking, but as soon as Yun and Princess opened her mouth, she actually went to eat quickly, pretending to be too similar.
He took a glass and smiled, "Thank you, princess." ”
Yunhe snorted, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
You looked at Liu Yan and said with a smile: "Mrs. Su, this princess also toasts you, thank you for your ruthlessness." ”
Liu Yan was almost choked, obviously Su Yixuan was not good, why did she say it was her fault so far?
"You're welcome, princess, please!" Liu Yan generously agreed, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Yun He's face changed, and instantly turned from sneer to anger, if it wasn't for the distance, I was afraid that the wine glass would be thrown over.
Su Yixuan added fuel to the fire, sandwiched the vegetables to Liu Yan, and said with a smile: "When did you become so sharp-toothed?" ”
"I've always been like this, but sometimes I don't want to deal with them, you're already my husband, I don't want to have a few more rivals for no reason."
What's more, the combat effectiveness of this rival in love is off the charts, in case Yun and the princess really drill the horns like in their previous life and stare at Su Yixuan, she will suffer a big loss.
"Madame, isn't she jealous?"
Liu Yan nodded, vinegared, very jealous.
"In this way, Madame finally realized the feeling of being a husband just now, and she was very relieved for her husband."
"......" Liu Yan was speechless, how could this person ...... It's so annoying!
On the other side, someone sighed softly, looking at the occasional small movements of this lady and her husband, I am afraid that the two of them are when you and I are nong, it is a pity, I thought that if the two did not have much friendship, he could still insert a foot, but now it seems that there is no place to insert a pin.
It's a shame.
"Prince Shuo, the emperor called you." The person behind him reminded.
Ouyang Shuo came back to his senses: "Your Majesty, what did you just say?" ”
"The emperor is asking, do you need to call Ouyang Wei over?"
Ouyang Ji......
Ouyang Shuo changed his previous cynicism and said solemnly: "If the emperor is gracious, he will naturally ask for it!" (To be continued.) )
