Chapter 77: Concubine Xiao

"Can the clothes of the nine-clawed golden dragon be worn casually?"

The Queen Mother tried her best to soften her tone and asked in a flat tone as much as possible.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what the Queen Mother said is also right, the nine-clawed golden dragon's gorgeous costume is only qualified for the emperor, isn't it?"

"Shut up!" Xuanyuan Jing immediately turned his head away, and glared at Queen He Huaiqing with a grim look in his eyes.

"The Queen Mother, the concubines look, the emperor is only unintentional, just now the concubines also heard that the six princes have blood on their bodies, and the mansions of the six princes are far away, near this Xuanyuan Palace, in addition to the eunuch's residence, only the clothes of today's saint are the most convenient, presumably the emperor is also because today is the birthday of the queen mother, neither can he wronged the six princes, nor can he lose his dignity on the birthday of the queen mother, so he ordered Gonggong Li to send it, please let the queen mother calm his anger."

This remark was well-organized and appropriate, not only did not offend Xuanyuan Qi and the Queen Mother, but also relieved the sorrow of Xuanyuan Jing, who was in a dilemma, and for a while, the condensed atmosphere around him gradually eased.

Suddenly, there were ministers below who echoed him, all of them comforting the queen.

Li Changqing couldn't help but look at the woman who was sitting in the lower position, beautiful and unruly.

At this time, she was wearing a light pink concubine dress, and Li Changqing could only see her side face because she was sitting in the same row as her, but she was so beautiful and charming.

Between the gestures, it is so graceful and luxurious, and it is even more extravagant than the queen.

Such a beautiful person can't even tell his age.

Who is she?

Li Changqing's eyes were probing, and Guo Mulei next to her delicately caught the doubt in Li Changqing's eyes, so she leaned over and said to Li Changqing: "Hey, that's Xiao Guifei, the most favored concubine in the saint today." You don't know, it's a fog in life, no one knows, everyone knows that all the royal family members of the entire Xuanyuan Dynasty are polite to her. ”

"Identity so mysterious?" When Li Changqing heard Xiao Guifei, his eyes flashed unconsciously, and he began to curl up his index finger and rhythmically tap the side bar of the chair.

"Yes, I heard that the emperor met her during a private visit to Weifu before, so she brought it back, and because she was dignified and decent, even the Queen Mother recognized her."

"A private interview with Weifu?" Li Changqing remembered that in her previous life, Xuanyuan Jing's favorite thing to do was to make a private visit to Weifu, and almost every time she would bring her father Li Rao.

Presumably, my father should know the identity of this woman, and after this birthday banquet, I will go back and inquire first, when will there be such a powerful concubine in the palace? That's something to watch out for.

couldn't help but look up and look at it more, but Guo Mulei continued: "To be honest, my father has mentioned this Xiao Guifei, saying that it is very powerful, and he has given the emperor many pertinent marches, do you know Xuanyuan Chu's famous 'Battle of Zhongyuan'?" ”

I've heard of this before.

In his previous life, it was a very famous battle, and even when he grew up, he heard his uncle talk about that battle, and his uncle admired it.

Moreover, a deep boudoir woman like Li Changqing was even more fond of it after hearing it.

It was a huge battle that took place in the middle of the Yuan Festival in the eleventh year of Xuanyuan.

At that time, the dynasty managed by Xuanyuan Jing was in urgent need of expansion, but encountered an invasion by barbarians, and Li Changqing's uncle also participated in this battle at that time, but it has been a stalemate.

It is said that at that time, someone gave advice to the Holy One today.

Because the barbarians themselves have great respect for ghosts and gods, when the war marches to the day of the Midyear Festival, the soldiers are all dancing and doing ghost things, and at this time, it gives the Xuanyuan Dynasty an opportunity.

And this plan must only be implemented on the day of the Midyear Festival.

The so-called time and place are favorable, according to the instructions of the person who gave advice, as soon as it is ready, it begins.

At that time, the barbarians were carnival to prepare war horses, which heralded the sacred objects sent by the gods.

And the war horse is actually a huge Trojan horse.

It is used to worship the protection of the gods.

Because the horses were too huge, they could only tear down their standing walls and use a hundred men to advance.

And this gave Emperor Xuanyuan an opportunity to take advantage of it, and after all the barbarian soldiers were full of wine and food, the heavily armed Xuanyuan Dynasty soldiers hiding in the wooden horse jumped out one after another.

They crept their way to the barbarian gates, killed the sleeping defenders, quickly opened the gates, and lit fires everywhere in the city. At this time, a large number of waiting troops hidden nearby poured into the barbarian city like a tide.

Annihilated the barbarians in one fell swoop, thus winning the war.

Therefore, the Battle of Zhongyuan was talked about by the Xuanyuan Dynasty as a "Trojan Horse Strategy".

However, although the Zhongyuan Battle caused heavy losses to the barbarians, during Li Changqing's reign as empress, she was regained and killed her own brother Li Changyong.

"Does she have anything to do with this battle?" In fact, Li Changqing seemed to have thought of something, but he couldn't be sure, so he could only ask again.

"You don't know that, do you?" Guo Mulei smiled proudly and continued: "This Xiao Guifei is the person who gave advice in the famous 'Battle of Zhongyuan'. ”

I see.

Li Changqing suddenly realized.

"Hey, it seems that you Xiao Guifei are very powerful."

Leng Buding was interjected by a crisp voice, Guo Mulei and Li Changqing were stunned, and then turned their heads, only to find that Murong Beibei was holding the table with his hands, listening curiously to their conversation.

Guo Mulei's impression of Murong Beibei was not too bad, and when she heard her speak, she immediately replied: "No, otherwise, now that Concubine Xiao has no power or power, how can she stand for so many years......"

Li Changqing quickly reached out to cover Guo Mulei who was about to say. The palace won't fall", just right smiled at Murong Beibei and said, "Let Miss Murong forgive me." ”

Then he lowered his head and whispered to Guo Mulei: "Mu Lei, being talked about nonsense." ”

Seeing her nodding, she let go of her hand, but when she saw Guo Mulei, whose face was already red, glared at her with disgust, she said, "Don't say hello in advance, are you going to cover me?" Although she knew very well in her heart that Li Changqing was for her good, she was too uncomfortable.

Li Changqing spread his hands helplessly, thinking, if I had told you earlier, I am afraid that you would be in trouble.

After knowing the situation of Concubine Xiao, they all looked at the top of the hall, and the expressions of the three people above gradually eased, and the Queen Mother sat down with the other two first, and Xuanyuan Jing breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

is more and more pampered and pampered by Xiao Guifei.

However, the queen's face was not much better. Clenched his palms tightly, his chest rose and fell, and he shot a few vicious and resentful glances at Xiao Guifei before he stopped.

Xiao Guifei retreated to her seat with interest and remained silent.

At this time, the emperor began to speak.
