That night, the palace arranged a night banquet to entertain those who came to watch the game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Keju is an activity that the people of Xizhou like to see, and it coincides with the wax month, the New Year festival is approaching, so this event is passed down by the nobles in the palace year after year, and finally the king decides that at the beginning of the month of each year, a three-day Keju conference will be held in the palace, one to strengthen the body, and the other to celebrate the New Year's Festival, killing two birds with one stone.

At the night banquet, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless, Tang Guxi and Lin Xun drank a little, and they didn't dare to eat and drink in this strange palace, after all, this is not Liangyu, and the king reuses them to appreciate them. After the banquet was dismissed, Princess Luo's maid Cui Yan came over and said to them with a smile: "Miss Tang, Lin Gongzi, Niangniangnian said that your home is far away from the palace, and she said that she wants you two to stay in the palace overnight. ”

"What?" Tang Guxi looked back in amazement, stopped at the mouth of the wooden ladder, and the foot that wanted to go downstairs was also retracted, "Staying in the palace at night?" But...... Isn't there a hostel for pedestrians outside, we can go there and ......"

"Girl, don't shirk anymore, the mother has already said that she has obtained the king's permission. The king knew that the two of you were friends of the prince, and after teaching the prince martial arts, he was very happy. followed Niangniang's wishes, Lin Gongzi stayed in the East Palace tonight, and Miss Tang went to Niangniang's palace with the slave maid and lived with Niangniang. ”

"Living with your mother?"

"I'm staying in the East Palace?"

Tang Guxi and Lin Xun asked in unison, stammering.

Cui Yan smiled lightly and said: "Yes, the girl doesn't know, the mother has always had nightmares in recent days, and often wakes up in the middle of the night, and she needs the slave to accompany the bedside to sleep." Today, the girl came into the palace, and the mother was trying to talk to the young man, and if she was accompanied, she probably wouldn't have nightmares, I don't know if the girl, can you help with this? ”

She turned to Lin Xun again, "As for Lin Gongzi, since he entered the palace in the name of the prince, he naturally has to go to the prince's residence." There are many women in the palace, otherwise, where does the son want to go? ”

She smiled and looked at Lin Xun, this sentence made Lin Xun speechless, and her face was full of shame.

Cui Yan is also an old man in the palace, and she is quite steady in her actions and words, this slave on the left and a slave on the right, and Tang Guxi is embarrassed to talk about it. Hearing that the princess wanted to find someone to be her companion, she came to call her, so she couldn't excuse herself, so she had to nod.

The people on the upper floor were scattered, and only the flickering lights remained, and under the blowing of the evening breeze, they shook their bodies. The two separated, one went to the East Palace with Song An to spend the night, and the other went to Weiyang Palace with Cuiyan.

In the dead of night, Tang Guxi followed Cuiyan for a long time before coming to Weiyang Palace. The road in the palace twists and turns, and the peaks and loops turn around, which really makes her dizzy. She remembered that Liangyu's palace was not as complicated as Xizhou, which showed that although the southern country has beautiful scenery and many landscapes, the design of the house passages is eclectic and the styles are very different.

After entering the house, the lights in the room were bright, and the candle shadow was shaking, but there was no Princess Luo. Tang Guxi was puzzled, and before he could ask a question, he listened to Cui Yan and said: "Niangniang has something to do, I can come back later, everything is taken care of here, if the girl is tired, let's go to bed with a wide dress." Slaves serve you......"

"No need." Tang Guxi smiled, "You're tired today, go and rest, I'll be alone." ”

Hearing her say this, Cui Yan didn't force it, and retreated.

After the door was closed, Tang Guxi breathed a sigh of relief, walked around the huge room, and after looking around, he found that Concubine Luo Niangniang had a lot of jewelry and treasures here, such as calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, jade on the cupboard, and rare treasures from small border countries...... The list goes on. She praised again and again, thinking to herself, Princess Luo has been the favor of the king for many years, and this is really true!

Even though she was the old princess of the southern kingdom, even though her parents and relatives were all killed by him, even though all her land and territory belonged to him, even though she had been on guard for decades...... However, for such a beautiful woman who is beautiful and fragrant, no matter how many years she has been in his palace, it is a rare treasure.

Treasure...... Tang Guxi lowered his head slightly, is it a treasure? For the king, is Princess Luo just a treasure?

Probably not, she thought. At the beginning, Xizhou could have defeated the southern kingdom five or six years earlier, but because of Princess Qingwan, he retreated and returned to the court, only seeking peace. Ye Hyun was named the crown prince at birth, which proves that this king has a deep affection for Princess Qingwan.

She sat on the wooden bench and thought for a long time, and before she knew it, her eyelids fought, and the feeling of sleepiness spread throughout her body. The lights on the candle table flickered, reflecting her shadow and swaying, and the hours gradually passed, and when Princess Luo came back, Tang Guxi really couldn't hold on, so he planted his head on the table and fell asleep immediately.

In her sleep, she felt a sound of footsteps from far and near, she heard a slight sound of the door opening, and then, the footsteps came to her, even if she didn't open her eyes to see, she could feel how gentle the man's movements were, as if she was afraid of waking her up.

A hand touched the back of his head, and Tang Guxi's heart was so frightened that he almost pulled out of his dream.

She noticed that Princess Luo was sitting down beside her, as if she was talking softly to her, and she couldn't remember exactly what she said. The hand was soft and boneless, rubbing lightly on his head, and after a while, he took it back, and as soon as the touch on his head disappeared, Tang Guxi suddenly felt a lot more energetic.

She endured sleepiness and was about to look up, but in an instant, she heard a man's voice.

"What do you want?"

The voice was not big or small, but it had a faint sense of familiarity, and when he heard it, Tang Guxi thundered in his head and completely sobered up. She was so worried that her body suddenly stiffened, and her eyes closed again, pretending to be asleep.

Who is this...... King?

Or the crown prince?

Why did you come here in the middle of the night?

It won't be the king, the king knows that someone is staying in Weiyang Palace tonight, and he will not come. So who is it? Why does it sound so familiar? Is it a mother......

"Just as I just said......," Princess Luo said softly, without the slightest emotion in her tone.

"What did you just say? Hmph, that's not going to work! ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"It's not easy for me to come here, and it's even more at risk of killing my head, so it's not appropriate for my mother to send me like this, right? Hmph, I don't care who this girl is, she can't do anything bad to me. Deal...... Mothers can ignore her, here-"

"No way!" Princess Luo stood up from her seat, her voice trembling slightly, "You're just crazy......"

The man let out a low laugh, "Why do you need to be angry, I'm crazy for more than a day or two, after so many years, doesn't Niangniang still understand?" ”

"You shouldn't call me a sissy......"

"That'...... How about calling you a lady? ”

……

Tang Guxi's body trembled, and boundless fear arose in her heart, she knew that it was not good, but she could only continue to endure, continue to pretend to be asleep, and continue to remain motionless. Listening to the man's voice, she had forgotten to think about who he was, but there was a burst of nausea in her chest, panic gnawed at her whole body like a poisonous insect, her hands and feet were cold and transparent, and the shadow of despair approached her layer by layer, gradually enveloping her, and the feeling of that moment was almost extinction.
