281: Palace Banquet in distress
The biggest difference between a palace banquet and an ordinary banquet is that it is serious. Although it is to let the hundred officials bring their families, but the emperor and queen sit at the same table, and the board is upright, and others will naturally follow suit, holding their breath one by one, as if facing a great enemy.
Nalan Jinxiu was naturally the same, especially when she found that Zong Xuanyi was sitting opposite her, and she had a feeling of numbness on her scalp. He was obviously her enemy, and when she died, she still thought that if she had the opportunity, she would take revenge, but now that she saw him, she found that she was more afraid.
She comforted herself, Zong Xuanyi is powerful, and the future is long, the most important thing now is to hide her identity, if he finds out, it is impossible to keep her anymore. The third brother I saw in the sea of death, when he was in power and momentum in Zong Xuanyi, was slightly older than now, and it should be a few years away. She must remember that she is Xu Jinsheng, and she must remember.
The banquet was long, and although there was food, wine, and beauty, everyone's minds were not on it. Those who can sit here either hold great power or have a high reputation, and this kind of person is not very interested in anything other than power.
The ladies couldn't sit still after all, so when the queen suggested that it would be better to go to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers, there was no one who didn't clap their hands. Nalan Jinxiu didn't want to leave Ji Hongye, but she didn't want to be too prominent, so she could only go with everyone.
The flowers in the royal garden are charming and beautiful, just like these ladies in the harem, and even these ladies.
Concubine Liu Guifei is graceful and spoils the harem, which is well known to everyone. Especially because she is not arrogant and extravagant, she does not hold the shelf of the concubine, but she talks happily with everyone. Nalan Jinxiu naturally doesn't have a good impression of her, and it's good if she doesn't hate itchy. She stood far away from her, and did not join other people's discussions, and was a quiet flower admirer.
Everyone saw that she was young, but she was wearing a second-grade commandment uniform, thinking that the second-grade senior member of the court had recently gotten married, and it was not difficult to guess who it was. The husband is an upstart in the imperial court, so naturally there will be many people who want to cling to it, and there are no longer a few people who come up to set it.
Nalan Jinxiu realized that she might be concerned about the third brother's business, and now she didn't know any of these ladies who took the initiative to talk. She copes with it implicitly, most of the time she smiles gently, she doesn't speak if she doesn't know, and she shouldn't make a mistake if she doesn't speak.
After gossiping for a long time, the anger is almost full, the queen wants to go back, and everyone naturally wants to follow. Nalan Jinxiu didn't want to be caught in the middle of the crowd, so she slowed down and followed behind, and a palace maid came by her side, and whispered to Jixiang: "My little master asked me to tell your wife that you must be careful in every move." ”
After the palace maid finished speaking, she left, and Ji Xiang could only tell Nalan Jinxiu as it was. She didn't know anyone except the queen mother and Liu Guifei, so she didn't have to bother guessing who was warning her.
I don't know what the man's purpose was, whether he was intimidating, or if he really wanted to remind her? Whatever the man's purpose, her heart was now unstable, and she felt that there was a hidden danger when she looked at everything. She made Jixiang speed up her steps, thinking that it was better to return to the third brother as soon as possible.
She lost consciousness for a moment, and the back of her head ached slightly, and she couldn't see anything. When she was unconscious, she found that she was being carried on her shoulders, looking like she should be a eunuch.
Nalan Jinxiu was motionless, afraid that she would be found awake, her mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of a way to get out. The path chosen by this eunuch is quite barren, and if she misses a blow, it is likely to anger him, and there will be no one to save him at that time.
She put the pin bag on her waist today, and she couldn't take it out at all at this time. So she stared into the man's eyes, and she wondered if she should blind him so she could get out. I think so, but if she wants to do it, she is still a little scared.
While she was hesitating, someone came and pulled him off the eunuch's shoulder. Then there was a drunk, slurred voice: "You slave, what are you carrying this woman for?
The eunuch planned to move the ** person at first, but when he saw the appearance of the person who came, he knelt down, his body trembled like chaff, and said vigorously: "Please spare the king of freedom." ”
The man burped, glanced at the little eunuch, and said, "Aren't you Desheng next to the Ninth Princess?
Nalan Jinxiu didn't have the heart to spend time with them here, if she didn't go back as soon as possible, the third brother would definitely be anxious when she found out that she was gone. She walked back by feeling, but was grabbed by the wrist, and then heard the man say, "You little girl looks quite standard, is it a marriage match?"
If Nalan Jinxiu just had a good impression of the person who saved him, now that trace is gone. Because the tone of this man's speech is completely flirtatious.
Besides, if he could see clearly whether she was born or not, then how could he not see clearly what she was wearing, and how could the person wearing the command suit be a little girl? She struggled, controlled her emotions, and tried to calm her tone: "I'm not a little girl, I'm Ji ......."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted, and the King of Joy was too drunk, and he pulled her and continued to ask, "No, but you are only so ......tall," he burped again, and his hand was still gesturing at her height, only to his chest.
If she is seen pulling and pulling with such a man, won't she be able to wash herself up by jumping into the Yellow River? The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she should get rid of him as soon as possible, and the more she struggled.
"Can you please not shake, I'm dizzy. ”
"You let go of me, I'm going back. ”
Who knew that King Xiaoyao suddenly pulled her to hide behind the rockery, Nalan Jinxiu was startled by him, and was about to shout reflexively, but he covered his mouth. Then the person who couldn't speak clearly just now suddenly cleared his voice, lowered his voice and said, "Someone is coming." ”
Only then did Nalan Jinxiu see that there were four or five eunuchs carrying a sack, and inside was a tall man, his mouth was gagged with rags, and his hands and feet were tied. As soon as he emerged from the sack, he began to struggle, and it seemed that he had a lot of strength and was not very easy to control.
"Rong guard, the master wants to send you away, we can't be slaves, don't blame our family when you get there. ”
After one of the eunuchs, who was not young, finished speaking, he ordered the others to do it. The eunuchs pulled the cloth from the man's mouth, and before he could speak, pressed his face into the water, and so on.
This is killing people, and it is the first time for Nalan Jinxiu to witness this kind of thing, and her heart is sick. She knew that she couldn't go out, otherwise she would definitely be involved in the affairs of the harem, and she would accidentally affect the third brother. But in the end, she is a doctor, how can she not be saved when she sees death?
She struggled inwardly, looked at the serious-looking King Xiaoyao beside her, and asked him what he meant with her eyes. The King of Joy looked like he didn't see her, and his expression was blank, as if he was used to this kind of thing.
The time seemed to be very long, and it seemed to be very short, Nalan Jinxiu resigned herself to burying her head in her arm, she was not a savior, and she couldn't help him. Then the man called Rong Guard died, and was directly thrown into the water by the group of eunuchs, making a drowning appearance.
"Huh...... I said, how long are you going to peek?" The sharp and thin voice was still the old eunuch just now.
Nalan Jinxiu felt a pang in her heart, and was about to hide behind the King of Ease, but she was entangled. She struggled, and saw that the Easy King was also entangled, and it was estimated that she would not be able to come to help for a while.
These eunuchs wanted to kill people and kill people.
Nalan Jinxiu was really speechless about her luck, so she got out of the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den. She wanted to escape from the eunuch who controlled her, but found that even the eunuch was much stronger than her, and she couldn't break free at all.
In a hurry, she felt the silver needle on her waist, and she raised it and stabbed him in the face while he was unprepared, and as soon as the man ducked, his men let go, and she took the opportunity to run. After running a few steps, I found that I didn't know the road, this place is very desolate, but there is a free king here who is not a bad person, if she gets lost, it will not be a dead end if she is caught.
At this moment, her thoughts had already turned over a million, and she turned around to see the people around the King of Ease, who were entangled with him in a strange posture, not like a person, but like a snake. She shouted to the Easy King, "How can I find a helper?"
"There was no helper. "It's a little difficult for the King to deal with these people.
Just when Nalan Jinxiu was asking, the man entangled her again, she couldn't struggle, she couldn't breathe anymore, and she felt that she was about to pass out. But someone pulled the thing that was tightly wrapped around his body away, and the suffocation disappeared.
"These things are not from the palace. The King gasped.
Nalan Jinxiu came back to his senses and saw that he had tied those people together, their limbs entangled with each other, like a round ball. This feeling made people shudder, and she couldn't help but ask, "Who is this?"
"I don't know. After King Xiaoyao finished answering, he glanced at her again and said, "You are the wife of the old man of Wenyuan Pavilion?"
Nalan Jinxiu looked at him in surprise, wondering how he recognized himself?
King Xiaoyao couldn't help but roll his eyes at her, straightened out his messy robe, and said in a very proud tone: "Who is this king, you can know your life by looking at your face." ”
He laughed a few times at the obvious disbelief in Shangnalan Jinxiu's eyes, and said heartily: "The eunuch who caught you for the first time was from the Nine Princesses Palace, and if she can do this, there will be only one you in the world." ”
The Ninth Princess was the one who pointed it out to the third brother before! She hesitated and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
"The person he likes has become your husband, do you think she is thinking about you?"
