Chapter 57: The Three Princesses

In the next few days, Qiao Mingyue has been avoiding Mama Rong under various excuses, and according to her own words, she is like a scumbag who cheats on her feelings.

As soon as people accepted themselves, they avoided others, and came out on weekdays to let the family take care of themselves, drink medicine on time, drink more hot water, and don't say anything, it's too scummy, Qiao Mingyue spit on herself in her heart.

However, today is the Lantern Festival, it is the day of reunion, Qiao Mingyue can't hide if she wants to, just when she hesitates whether to pretend to be sick, Mama Rong suddenly came and informed her that there was a banquet in the palace and asked her to accompany the prince.

Because it was a banquet, Mama Rong specially instructed her to dress luxuriously, but Qiao Mingyue still didn't choose those red and green colors, and she looked dazzling herself.

In the end, she tossed and chose a moon-white palace dress, Rong Shuang gave her a flying fairy bun, picked a set of sheep fat jade jewelry to wear, and then matched with the gold and jade bracelet, the whole person looked gentle and noble, a little bit of the charm of the fairy under the moon.

Rong Mama saw that she was satisfied, so she let Qiao Mingyue get into the carriage, and told her to be careful of the queen again, Qiao Mingyue nodded, and asked Rong Shuang to go back to the palace and wait.

Mama Rong stood at the gate of the palace and stood until she couldn't see the shadow of the carriage before turning back.

Qi Jingyun has not come back since she went to the morning court today, and she is a little uneasy.

Qiao Mingyue in the carriage was in the same mood as her at the moment, if there was no accident, Qi Jingyun should be waiting for her in the palace, if there was an accident......

Qiao Mingyue shook her head and didn't let herself continue to think.

When I arrived at the palace gate, Gonggong Chen was already waiting here.

Qiao Mingyue followed him all the way to the front of the hall, and when she entered the door, Gonggong Chen deliberately turned around and told her to be more careful.

It seems that today's banquet is not simple, Qiao Mingyue was a little nervous, so she asked Biyu to stuff a silver ticket for Gonggong Chen and entered the hall alone.

The emperor and queen have not yet come, and the ministers and princes are all sitting in their seats talking, and when they saw Princess Jin coming, they all looked in her direction.

Qiao Mingyue looked around as soon as she entered the door, and was relieved to see Qi Jingyun sitting there safe and sound, and walked in without changing her face.

Although the color of the palace dress on her body is not brilliant, it is better than the details, the whole dress is embroidered with gold thread dark lines, with her steps flashing with a fine light, coupled with her makeup today, for a while people thought that it was a fairy who fell into the mortal world, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Qi Jingyun has been watching her since she entered the hall, noticing the eyes of the people around her, she was unhappy, she stood up and walked towards Qiao Mingyue, blocking the sight of those people with her body, and escorting Qiao Mingyue to her seat.

As soon as she sat down, Qiao Mingyue took his hand and asked in a low voice, "Why haven't you come back from the court today?" ”

Qi Jingyun looked at her worried look, smiled, took her hand back and dragged her into his arms, "What? Doesn't the lady want to be a husband? ”

Qiao Mingyue wanted to struggle, but there were so many people around him who were observing and it was not easy to make a move, so she could only let him hold it, leaned into his ear and gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not joking with you." ”

"I'm not kidding my husband. The prince wanted to lead the troops to attack the Xiongnu, and specially asked the emperor to order me to be responsible for preparing grain and grass. Qi Jingyun still maintained a smile on his face, but his tone couldn't help but become heavy.

Qiao Mingyue's mood also became heavy, now it is cold, food and grass are already in short supply, Qi Jingyun has no relevant experience before, at this time, let him be in charge of food and grass, it is obviously embarrassing him, and it is the prince who is responsible for leading the troops, whether he wins or loses depends mainly on his performance.

If he wins, people will only notice the prince's merits, who cares how much grain and grass Qi Jingyun has prepared, if he loses, the prince will have the opportunity to blame Qi Jingyun for his mistakes and leave himself clean.

It's really a good hand, Qiao Mingyue thought to herself.

Just as she wanted to say something more to Qi Jingyun, a person walked over to the two of them.

She was wearing a lilac skirt and holding her hair in a high bun, perhaps because the color of the clothes was too provocative, and she couldn't hold this color, and the whole person looked a little discordant.

"This is the third brother's imperial concubine." Qi Jingyun reminded in Qiao Mingyue's ear.

The Three Princes?

This person Qiao Mingyue had some impressions, she had seen him at the previous banquet, and she heard that Biyu said that he was a good woman, and she found several in the side room alone. Thinking of this, Qiao Mingyue couldn't help but feel some sympathy for the imperial concubine in front of her. The feeling of fluttering flags in your own home must be uncomfortable.

The third princess walked up to the two of them and poured herself a glass of wine, "I heard that Princess Jin is both talented and beautiful, and she has only heard pipa music before, but when I see me today, I know that what I said is true." ”

She stared straight at Qiao Mingyue, and saw that Qiao Mingyue was a little worried in her heart, this girl wouldn't be unfavored by her father-in-law, so she changed to like women.

"My sister laughed, my sister is just lucky, and she really can't be called talented." Qiao Mingyue left from Qi Jingyun's arms and politely toasted her with a glass of wine.

Who knew that the third princess didn't appreciate it, snorted coldly, and said: "No wonder my family Mingzong always said you in front of me, it turned out to be a foxy character, and everyone looked flattering when I saw it." ”

Qiao Mingyue was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had misheard it just now, what did this woman say just now? Foxy?

She couldn't help but glance at Qi Jingyun, and the other party also looked confused.

When did you provoke the Three Princes? Qiao Mingyue couldn't figure it out after thinking about it.

Just when she was puzzled, the third princess continued: "The last time I came to the palace to listen to you play a pipa, Mingzong never forgot when he went back, what did Princess Jin have in mind, openly and secretly seducing other people's husbands." ”

The more the third princess spoke, the more excited she became, and finally she shouted directly, and the people around her all turned sideways to watch the excitement, and no one stepped forward to stop them.

Qiao Mingyue took a sneak look, but didn't find the figure of the third prince, it seems that the party didn't come today, no wonder this princess couldn't control her emotions so much, it turned out to be a resentful woman. Thinking of this, Qiao Mingyue couldn't help but feel a little more sympathetic when she looked at her.

When the third princess saw Qiao Mingyue's eyes looking at her, she thought she was provoking herself, and she raised her hand and was about to hit her, Qiao Mingyue hurriedly hid in Qi Jingyun's arms.

Qi Jingyun was also very cooperative, protecting her with one hand and stopping the slap that the third princess didn't have time to fall with the other.

The third princess looked at the affectionate appearance of the two people, and the anger in her heart became even greater, her husband never had herself in his eyes, but this fox was deeply loved.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't swallow it, and she picked up the glass and wanted to splash it on the two of them.
