Chapter 68: The Qiongtian Palace Banquet

Later, Yuan Ying didn't tell me about what happened after meeting the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine in the emperor's bedroom. It's just that Yun explained lightly, Huang Fu Xuan asked to see the emperor, and it happened that the emperor was in a coma again, and the imperial concubine led Huang Fu Xuan to visit the emperor's bedroom in order to avoid suspicion.

Man's ambition always leads to conspiracy, and in this high wall, there is destined to be one conspiracy after another.

I thought that greeting would be the last time we met in Shao Palace. Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine set up a banquet at this time, invited the prince to accompany her, and invited the emperor to announce the banquet.

Yuan Ying had no intention of taking me along, but early in the morning of this day, the father-in-law of Qiongtian Palace waited at the gate of the palace with his maids, saying that it was the imperial concubine's edict and brought something to me.

After they had left, I took away the silk that had been placed on the brocade plate.

At that moment, I sensed the anger I had not seen for a long time in Yuan Ying's eyes. The smile on his face did not fade, but his eyes became colder and colder. Under that brocade, we saw a set of Nancheng women's costumes.

"This should be just her conspiracy." I casually explained, "She wants us to feel like she's made a deal with Huangfu Xuan." But I know that the Emperor declares"

"Huangfu Xuan categorically will not cooperate with her on this condition." But it was Yuan Ying who blurted out, he looked determined, took my unfinished words, calmly affirmed the matter, turned his head to look at me, a little helplessness in his eyes, but as he said, Huangfu Xuan really will not promise the imperial concubine anything on my terms, not because of how important I am to him, I am afraid that for Huangfu Xuan, it is not glorious for Queen Nancheng to fall in the Beishao Palace, and he may not admit this matter to the imperial concubine.

I looked at Yuan Ying, and I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart. "Between you and Huangfu Xuan, is there really nothing?"

He frowned slightly, and he understood the meaning of my words, "What do you mean?" โ€

"Regardless of whether I really know him, as far as Queen Nancheng is concerned, I don't dare to be so sure if Huangfu Xuan has other plans, you seem to know him better. I should have explained it out loud, didn't I, but now I have the illusion that it has become the biggest misunderstanding between you. โ€

Who is the person who said two days ago that he wanted to show his affection to Huangfu Xuan, how do you feel that now, I am being shown a face of affection.

He chuckled, but didn't explain, and lowered his voice to my ear, "It seems that I confirmed my orientation to you last night." โ€

I was stunned, opened my mouth but couldn't explain a word, my cheeks burned like a fire, I looked at him with a wicked smile, glared at him viciously, and angrily scolded, "Hooligans." โ€

I finally went to Qiongtian Palace with him, but I didn't pay attention to the set of clothes sent by the imperial concubine.

Outside the Qiongtian Palace, we happened to collide with Huangfu Xuan, who came to the banquet. From a distance, I saw Huang Fuxuan wearing a Xuanqing coming from one direction, and I didn't have time to say hello.

Yuan Ying suddenly stopped, turned sideways, raised his arm, brushed the slightly loose robe on my shoulders with his fingers like white jade, and arranged the crooked collar for me, as if muttering to himself, "It has been corrected according to your shape, how can it still look like this wolf bรจi." โ€

Huangfu Xuan saw this picture intentionally or unintentionally, but there was nothing special about it, but he stood not far from us, with a smile on his chin.

I couldn't help but feel a little deliberate, and quietly pushed Yuan Ying under my waist.

Yuan Ying turned around at this time, looking like he had just noticed, and turned around and smiled lightly with Huangfu Xuan, although this move was a little inexplicably absurd, but it looked justified and serious.

Huangfu Xuan turned his head slightly and looked at me around Yuan Ying. After looking me up and down, I was dressed in white, and said, "Black is more suitable for you." โ€

After speaking, Huangfu Xuan turned around and walked into Qiongtian Palace, Yuan Ying stood in place, his face was silent, he lowered his eyelids once, adjusted the rhythm of his breathing slightly, and then turned his head to look at me.

Huang Fuxuan's words were obviously deliberately teasing him, even if he himself understood it, he was still unhappy.

I thought Yuan Ying would say something, but he looked at me for a long time and only dropped a sentence.

"It's better if it's white."

At the banquet in Qiongtian Palace, it looks like a very harmonious and harmonious picture. The Imperial Concubine's gaze scanned the court for a week, and finally fell on me. I noticed that she was looking at me, and she stood quietly behind Yuan Ying.

Huang Fu Xuan was seated in two seats with her, but she turned to greet Huang Fu Xuan, and they kept their voices low in the midst of the song and dance, so that all of us under the high seat did not know what they were saying.

But when the two were talking, Huangfu Xuan suddenly looked at us.

The corners of the imperial concubine's mouth raised a smug smile, and she raised her hand to interrupt the singing and dancing in the court. The sudden silence made the courtiers in the court look at each other.

"You come forward."

The imperial concubine's gold nails adorned with pearls pointed straight at me.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the court was a little deadlocked, and Yuan Ying in front of Fang Jue was about to get up, but I reached out and pulled him and stopped him. Although I hesitated, I also knew the current situation, so I was about to move my steps and walk out, but I suddenly heard Huangfu Xuan say.

But it bears a slight resemblance to the widow's wife. But it's not. Before leaving, if it wasn't for the widow who would say goodbye to his wife, he would be afraid that he would suspect that this person in front of him was his wife in disguise. โ€

Huang Fuxuan's remarks made the imperial concubine a little surprised. He smiled and explained to the imperial concubine, "Coincidentally, the widow and this little brother have had a relationship, and I was very surprised when I met in Shao Palace the day before yesterday. It's just that the widow's wife wanted to go along, but a few days ago she contracted a cold and it was inconvenient to travel. โ€

Huangfu Xuan directly denied the meaning of the imperial concubine in front of the courtiers of Beishao. However, because she repeatedly claimed that Queen Nancheng was his wife, she was praised by the courtiers again and again.

"The relationship between the emperor and the queen of Nancheng is so strong, which makes the palace a little envious." The imperial concubine also reacted very quickly, but halfway through her words, she glanced at her again.

I don't think I saw it.

Yuan Ying sat on the seat and ignored what was going to happen, from my point of view, he couldn't see half an expression on his face, he was not happy or angry, and the discussion of the people in the court was as if he hadn't heard it, his expression was cold, and he held the wine glass lightly with two fingers.

Huangfu Xuan catered to the discussions of the ministers, and said with a smile, "Although there is a little resemblance to the widow's wife, it is not as delicate as her, I don't know if it is because the water and soil in Beishao are not as good as those in Nancheng." โ€

The court fell silent. Huangfu Xuan also acted as if nothing had happened, but he raised his wine glass and saluted Yuan Ying in the air, and drank it in one gulp.

The imperial concubine used me to provoke the two of them, but she didn't expect the plan to fail. Although she tried her best to win over Huangfu Xuan, she didn't expect that Huangfu Xuan would take the initiative to show favor to Yuan Ying.

I turned my head to look at her, and I was a little amused.

She overestimated me. The marriage between Huang Fu Xuan and me was just a transaction, and her attempt to use me to shake Huang Fu Xuan's mind was the biggest mistake in the whole plan. Huangfu Xuan, as the emperor of Nancheng, how could he lightly admit that the queen was not in the palace, not to mention, with Huangfu Xuan's character, I am far less important to him than Yuan Ying, even if someone deliberately provokes, how can he offend Yuan Ying because of me.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and although I had guessed this qiฤ“ early in the morning, I was still worried that the plot would not develop according to my vision. It's just that at this time, someone looked at Yiqiฤ“ in the court with interest, and it turned out that he had already knew.

After the feast, we stepped out of the Qiongtian Palace. The father-in-law of Qiongtian Palace was already waiting at the door, and when he saw me and Yuan Ying walking out one after the other, he greeted him and bowed down, "Your Highness, the imperial concubine Niangniang invites this prince to talk about it." โ€

Yuan Ying only in the blink of an eye, he understood the intentions of the future people, he looked sideways and asked me what I meant, I nodded, Yuan Ying breathed a sigh of relief, as if to say, if you really want to see her, then go. "I'll walk around the garden and come here to pick you up later."

When he said this, he was giving a warning to my father-in-law, but he was not in a hurry to leave, looking at me, his eyes could not be dispersed helplessly, for some reason, I felt that he was particularly distressed at the moment, he reached out and stroked the slightly messy hair on my forehead, sighed, as if he had made a lot of determination, waved his hand, and motioned for me to go in.

Although I was surprised that the imperial concubine would come to me after the banquet, I still had some expectations.

But in his mind, he never forgot Yuan Ying's eyes for a moment.

I followed my father-in-law into the inner hall of Qionghua Palace, and after the father-in-law preached me, he passed me in, and then retreated on his own. I walked cautiously and saw Huangfu Xuan again in the inner hall.

The imperial concubine was originally sitting on the throne chatting with him, but when she saw me come in, she greeted me very familiarly, pulled me up and sat down with her, and then said to the emperor, "I failed to tell you before, Yin'er was originally my daughter." โ€

I was instantly struck by lightning, I didn't expect her to admit her relationship with me so lightly, I was surprised and delighted, and just looked at her blankly.

She was not surprised, and stroked my cheek affectionately, "After so many years, you have suffered a lot." She looked a little lost, raised her hand and gently wiped the corners of her eyes, as if she could barely squeeze out a smile, looked at me, and then looked at Huangfu Xuan, she took my hand and put it in her palm, patted the back of my hand, and said, "This was a secret from many years ago, Yin'er, I'm sorry, because of the current situation, this palace can't openly recognize you." โ€

Huang Fu Xuan's expression was not abnormal, but he seemed to be a little interested in this sudden confession, and the imperial concubine's words undoubtedly surprised him a little, but he quickly digested this so-called secret.

"Why this time?" I couldn't help but ask, with a stomach full of doubts, "Why did you recognize me at this time?" โ€

The expression of the imperial concubine did not show any flaws, the guilt, the sadness, it didn't seem to be acted, but she seemed to mean to say it to the emperor, "This palace knows, you came to find the secret of your life experience, but after all, it has been more than 20 years, and your father is no longer alive, and now, this palace has become the imperial concubine of Beishao, this qiฤ“, not only can not go back, but can only be buried in the past, once these pasts are opened, this palace and you are very dangerous." Now that you have found an upright and benevolent husband like Emperor Nancheng, this palace can be regarded as a matter of heart. โ€

I was stunned, and then I understood what she meant, Huangfu Xuan lowered his head and smiled lightly for a moment, and said calmly, "The imperial concubine already knew that Zhaohua had arrived in Beishao, so tonight's banquet is to test the widow's mind." โ€

"A few days ago, in a mutiny in the Shao Palace, although the palace monopolized the power, but unexpectedly learned the identity of Yin'er, so that people especially let people go to the secret investigation, the palace knew what kind of danger she took to appear in the Shao Palace, but could not recognize her, lest a slight mistake cuรฒ put her in danger. At today's banquet, I had to make this decision, but seeing that Emperor Nancheng was so protective of Yin'er, the palace put his mind at ease and asked the two of you to come and say these words to you. โ€

"Niangniang doesn't have to be so polite, since you are Zhaohua's biological mother, you are also the widow's mother-in-law, and the widow is also a son-in-law, you don't have to call Nancheng Emperor, Zhaohua and the widow have never been so strange, Niangniang might as well be called a junior, so as not to make Mrs. feel uncomfortable." Huangfu Xuan responded without leaking.

The imperial concubine seemed to have received a satisfactory answer in this coming-and-going, and the smile on her lips became more and more obvious.

It turns out that disappointment and disappointment will be such a feeling.

From the expectation to the first time I heard her admit her relationship with me, although I was shocked, but also happy, thinking that even if I couldn't recognize her, she knew, and it would be enough. From happy to desperate, I didn't want it to be so fast.

Huangfu Xuan seemed to be aware of it, but he also got up without a trace, "It's not early, Niangniang should rest early, and the widow will send Zhaohua back." โ€

"Now that Shaogong is in crisis, if you are really worried about Yin'er's safety, take her back with you."

I had only gotten up at this moment, and before I had taken two steps, I heard her say this.

Fang felt that her intentions were so insidious at the moment, but the great frustration in her heart was no longer a cold word that could be explained, it turned out that the recognition with me was also under her painstaking design.

Huang Fu Xuan had already walked a few steps away, but when he heard this, he stopped in place, and only for a moment of hesitation, he turned around and walked to my side.

He looked down at me.

I knew that the tears that had fallen were clearly seen by him.

But I was afraid that the slightest movement of him would make the woman behind me realize that I didn't want to lose the last dignity in front of her at this moment.

Huangfu Xuan took me, he crossed me, and I heard him clearly.

"Zhaohua is the wife of the widow Ming Media, no one can hurt her, she is the queen of my Nancheng, and to hurt her is to be the enemy of the whole Nancheng. If she wanted to stay, the widow would not take her away, and if she wanted to, the widow would never leave her. โ€
