Chapter 375: The Farthest Distance

The nervous Xiao Yao followed Chen Xu to the East Palace where the prince lived, Chen Shubao was already waiting at the door, but Xiao Wuhua, the crown princess who was Chen Xu's daughter-in-law, did not follow Chen Shubao to greet Emperor Chen Xu as usual.

It seems that Chen Shubao did follow Chen Xu's request and made the ladies of the East Palace avoid it!

Xiao Wuhua was not there, which made Xiao Yao breathe a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart, because Xiao Yao hadn't seen Xiao Wuhua for a long time, and his memory of her was still stuck on the night before the Northern Expedition last year, when the two were still hugging each other tightly, telling each other the love words in their hearts, and preparing to marry after the victory of the Northern Expedition! But as a result, she has now become Chen Shubao's crown princess, and she really hates to meet late, creating things to make people!

As the emperor, Chen Xu was not polite, picked up the emperor's shelf and swaggered into the banquet hall, but Xiao Yao had a complicated emotion, silently following behind, as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle in his heart, which was very unpleasant!

And Chen Shubao, who was following alongside, saw Xiao Yao's absent-minded expression, and his heart was even more excited, waiting very much for the desperate and helpless reaction that Xiao Yao might have later.

The three of them came to the banquet hall, but they saw the huge screen between the main hall and the side hall, and there were already people standing there behind the screen.

"Concubines greet Your Majesty!" Behind the screen, there was a chorus of women's greetings.

Xiao Yao's heart suddenly chuckled, and his eyes looked at the screen that completely separated the main hall from the side hall in horror, because he could hear that in this group of women's voices, there was Xiao Wuhua's voice!

That's right, it's the voice of Maihua! It's definitely the sound of Maihua! You won't be mistaken, she's right behind this screen!

Xiao Yao's body instantly became a little stiff, motionless, his breathing became rapid, his hands were clenched into fists, his eyes were looking at this huge screen, his eager gaze seemed to want to penetrate this screen, and see Xiao Wuhua, who was extremely missing in his heart!

There is no longer the farthest distance in the world, two people who love each other are in the same room, less than three meters apart, and they can even hear the breathing of the couple, but they are separated by a screen, so that the two cannot see each other!

"Didn't you already tell your ladies to avoid it? Why are you just putting a screen in the middle and letting them stay in this room? Chen Xu also saw Xiao Yao's reaction, and said to Chen Shubao with some displeasure in his heart.

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger! Although they are all concubines of his sons, they are even more of His Majesty's daughters-in-law! Moreover, it is rare for His Majesty to come to the East Palace, so they also want to participate in this family banquet and share the joy of family with His Majesty! Chen Shubao explained. Three-two

Then he walked up to Xiao Yao, who was still staring blankly at the screen, and said loudly: "Erchen knows that Your Majesty is worried about Shiro's feelings!" But now Shiro is not an outsider! The famous Xiao Yao Xiao Shilang is the righteous son of General Xiao and the younger brother of the crown princess, so naturally he is also the younger brother of Erchen, so we are actually a family! So today's family dinner, we should sit down as a family and have a good meal! However, Erchen is naturally very considerate of Shiro's younger brother, after all, in addition to the crown princess, there are other female dependents over there, so this screen was specially added to let the female dependents eat with us over there, so that we can drink more quickly! ”

Sure enough, hearing Chen Shubao shout Xiao Yao's name, there was immediately a sound of wine glasses knocking over the ground on the side of the screen, and then I heard a palace maid say nervously: "Princess, are you okay, the slave maid will go and help you change a set of wine glasses!" ”

It was Xiao Wuhua, when she suddenly heard Xiao Yao's name, she was also frightened, because she knew that the lover she had been thinking about day and night in her heart was actually on the other side of this screen, standing less than three meters away from herself, so she suddenly softened her hands and feet, unconsciously retreated, and knocked over the wine glass on the table.

Uncle Chen, as the master of the East Palace, of course had to bypass the screen and go to the side hall to see what was going on.

When he saw that Xiao Wuhua had been frightened and turned pale and looked panicked, Chen Shubao secretly sneered in his heart, this is what he wanted! He deliberately didn't tell Xiao Wuhua that it would be Xiao Yao who would come with Chen Xu today, which also made Xiao Wuhua completely unprepared to face this Xiao Yao who he missed so much in his heart!

"Haha, it's okay, it's just that the crown princess was a little excited just now, and she accidentally knocked over a wine glass, after all, our family can sit down together for this family banquet today, and everyone is very happy! You say yes, Brother Shiro! Chen Shubao deliberately provoked Xiao Yao and smiled.

Xiao Yao, who came back to his senses, looked at Chen Shubao fiercely with both eyes, clenched his fists, but did not answer Chen Shubao's words.

Chen Shubao was very satisfied with Xiao Yao's expression, then laughed loudly, and said to Chen Xu: "Your Majesty, please come to the table, it is rare for our family to sit down to eat today, and there is Shiro, who is not only the younger brother of the crown princess, but also the poet and god of war of our great Chen Guo, we should have a good drink!" Come, Shiro, take your seats too! The ladies next door, you all sit down together, although there is a screen, but today it is rare for Your Majesty to come to our East Palace and have a meal with you, this is Your Majesty's gift to you! ”

Chen Xu naturally could see that this was deliberately done by Chen Shubao, but seeing that he was his own son, it was impossible to criticize Chen Shubao in front of Xiao Yao, so Chen Xu shook his head, walked to the seat and sat down straight.

The emperor was seated, and everyone else sat down one after another, and then Chen Shubao picked up a glass and said to Chen Xu: "This cup of wine is for your majesty!" Erchen is very grateful to His Majesty for coming to the East Palace to participate in today's family banquet, and he also brought Shiro as a distinguished guest, Erchen is very honored! ”

After drinking it all, Chen Shubao raised another cup and said to Xiao Yao: "Shilang, although this palace is the prince of Chen Guo, at today's family banquet, this palace is your brother-in-law!" Come, good brother, brother-in-law toasts you! Brother-in-law knows that Wuhua and your sister and brother have a good relationship, but when your brother-in-law and Wuhua got married, you were still hunted down by Gao Changgong in Qi State, and your whereabouts are unknown, so you couldn't be present to celebrate our big wedding together. And your Xiao family gave birth to a good daughter, Wuhua she not only looks like a fairy, but also gentle and graceful, knowledgeable, so that her brother-in-law is very fond of her, and now we are still like newlyweds every day, getting along like glue and lacquer! ”

Seeing Xiao Yao's increasingly ugly face, Chen Shubao became even more proud, and then continued to stimulate Xiao Yao and said: "Haha, since Wuhua entered the palace, she and your Xiao family have not had much chance to meet, today Shiro was able to come to the East Palace for a banquet, although now you and Wuhua are still separated by this screen, but it can be regarded as sitting at the same family banquet, if it weren't for the fact that there are still a few Liangdi sitting there, the brother-in-law will definitely remove this screen, and then let Wuhua and Shiro get together with your two sisters and brothers!" So take this rare opportunity to take this glass of wine as if you came to our wedding banquet to congratulate me and Wuhua on our wedding! ”

"Come, Wuhua, our husband and wife also raised their glasses together, and drank this glass of wine with Shiro, which means that we have accepted Shiro's best wishes for the two of us to get married!" Chen Shubao shouted loudly at the screen.
