Baili Xue jumped off the lotus pond, Concubine Yan fainted again, Bai Liyan immediately sent someone to visit Mingrui Palace after getting the news, Concubine Yan saw that Baili Xue was safe and sound, so there was no big problem, and the birthday banquet in the evening was held as usual.

After Baili Xue returned to Mingrui Palace, Ru Xi waited by the lotus pond for a long time, and saw that Baili Yu did not show up, so he returned to Jiade Palace with Qingliu, but met Baili Yi at the door.

Baili Yi seemed to be going out, and when he saw Ru Xi's outfit today, he raised his thick eyebrows and said: "This palace will go to the queen mother, the birthday banquet in the evening was specially organized by the father and the emperor for Concubine Yan, everyone can't be late, just go over when you are ready!" ”

Ru Xi nodded, and passed by Baili Yi.

"Miss, the prince is very polite to you now!" Aoyagi said with a smile, and Ru Xi said: "That's because he didn't treat me as a crown princess, but just treated me as a person who fought side by side." ”

As soon as the sun set, the afterglow of the setting sun disappeared on the horizon, and the entire palace was lit up with palace lights, and everywhere it went, it was all bright.

When Ru Xi and Aoyagi arrived at the Tongle Palace, they were almost full.

In front of the main hall is the dragon chair where the emperor sits, and there are several phoenix chairs next to the dragon chair, and the emperor, the queen mother, the queen, and the concubine have not yet arrived.

On the left side of the main hall are the ministers and their families, and on the right are the princes and concubines.

Ru Xi stood still at the entrance of the hall, and then caused a whisper, raised her eyes, at least half of her eyes looked at her, when she got married, because of Xipa's face, everyone did not see the true face, and now there is an opportunity, and she will not let it go.

As long as everyone is gossiping, even the ministers of the DPRK and China are no exception.

When the maid of the first palace saw Ruxi, she came over and said, "The princess is here, please." ”

Ru Xi didn't make a sound, followed the palace maid, from the palace gate all the way to the front of the hall, a distance of dozens of meters, every step will attract the attention of countless people, seeing that he was about to go to the front, suddenly a cough came from the side, Ru Xi looked sideways slightly, and saw Bai Lifeng smiling at her with a wine glass, Ru Xi glared at him and continued to walk forward.

The palace maid led her to a double table at the front on the right, then turned to her and said, "Crown Princess, please take a seat." After saying that, he nodded and stepped back.

After Ru Xi sat down, she raised her eyes to look at the people who were still watching her, and there was displeasure hidden in her slightly squinted eyes, although she looked like a weak woman, but such a gaze made people dare not look directly.

Sideways, sitting on the right is Bai Liyang, who has only played one face in the imperial garden today, and did not say a word, at this time, seeing Ru Xi looking at him, Bai Liyang's thin lips pursed slightly, so he also looked over.

His eyes are bright and calm, and it is hard to imagine that he is Concubine Yan's biological son.

Ru Xi turned his head back, and heard a commotion, and Gonggong Lu stood by the door of the main hall and said loudly: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Everyone present got up one after another, bowed their heads and stood facing the temple door, Ru Xi stood behind Bailiyang, because Bailiyang's tall figure blocked her, she secretly looked up.

Those who came with Bailiyan were the Queen Mother, the Queen, Concubine Yan, and the Jade Concubine, as well as the Prince Bailiyi, Mingxuan Prince Bailiyu, and the princess Bailixue.

When Baili Xue passed by Ru Xi's table, she threw a small purse into Ru Xi's hand, Ru Xi hurriedly caught it, looked up at Baili Xue in confusion, and Bai Lixue whispered: "Give it to you." ”

As he spoke, he walked around and stood behind Ru Xi.

Bai Li Yi and Ru Xi are at the same table, and Bai Li Yu's position is on the right of Bai Li Yang.

Bailiyan stood in front with the Queen Mother and others, and Bailiyan smiled: "Today is Concubine Yan's birthday, everyone toasts and has fun, don't be too formal, everyone sits." ”

As soon as Baili Yi sat down, he leaned close to Ru Xi's ear and said softly: "I heard that you saved Baili Xue today?" People who don't know the truth still think that the couple has a good relationship.

Ru Xi sat still, her head was not deviated, and she said, "Yes!" ”

"Eventful!" Baili Yi scolded secretly and sat up straight, Ru Xi turned his head to look at him, Bai Li Yi looked ahead, and drank with a wine glass.

Looking at other people's appearances, the heart is really poisonous.

Even if Baili Xue was not born to the queen, she was also his half-sister, how could she be so cold-blooded and ruthless?

Ru Xi stared at Baili Yi for a long time, and Bai Li Yan didn't seem to notice, and was polite to the ministers who came over to toast.

Behind her, Baili Xue watched the dancing girls in the hall dance, clapping as she watched, and laughed like silver bells from time to time.

Although the dance was good, Ru Xi had no intention of appreciating it, holding her chin and looking to the right, Bai Liyang thought she was looking at him, and when she saw Bai Liyang turn her head, Ru Xi immediately turned her head over, such an action really made people think she was looking at Bai Liyang.

Ru Xi showed a look of annoyance, and Bai Liyang smiled lightly before withdrawing his gaze.

Although this birthday banquet was lively, because of the gathering under the emperor's nose, everyone smiled perfunctorily and politely.

Lord Zhuo, who was in charge of investigating Ru Xi's assassination, suddenly stood in the center of the hall and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a gift for Concubine Yan today. ”

"What gift?" Bailiyan asked with a smile.

Lord Zhuo replied: "It's the last time the emperor asked his ministers to investigate the assassination of the crown princess, and there has been a result. ”

When Concubine Yan heard this, her cheeks, which were rosy from drinking, instantly turned pale, and Uncle Mu Guo, who was sitting at the bottom of the main hall, also had a very ugly face.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother was slightly unhappy, "On this festive day, what are you doing to mention state affairs, sweep everyone's happiness, Lord Zhuo, step down!" ”

Lord Zhuo bowed his head and said: "Concubine Yan Niangniang must have been restless for this matter, and now that there is a result, let Niangniang know a moment earlier, and she will be relieved a moment earlier." ”

Bailiyan thought for a while and said, "In that case, you should come and hear it, what is the result?" Can this matter be related to Concubine Yan? ”

Lord Zhuo was about to speak, but suddenly his body stiffened, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground before he could say a word.

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the hall, the men were shocked, and the women were already screaming in fright.

Ru Xi hurriedly got up and walked to Lord Zhuo's side, first reached out to probe his snort, and found that there was still breath, so he immediately took out a heart-saving pill for him to take, and then sealed several of his big holes.

"How's it going?" Bailiyan asked anxiously, this Lord Zhuo has always been fair and honest, and he is a rare good official, if he dies like this, it will really be a big loss for the Qi Kingdom.

Ru Xi got up and replied: "Back to my father, Lord Zhuo still has breath, and his son will save him, and ask my father to order the sealing of Tongle Hall to find out the murderer who tried to kill Lord Zhuo." ”

Bailiyan listened to Ru Xi's words and ordered: "Spread my will, block the Tongle Palace, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and there will be no mercy for those who make the order." ”
