Chapter 65: The Hunting Banquet

Back in the big tent, the red fox won the love of the spring solstice, and Wang Xuannian saw this and handed it over to the spring solstice to feed, out of sight and out of mind.

Zhong Xuanlan sat there and watched the spring solstice tease the fox, wondering in his heart how the Xu family would calculate them tonight?

Wang Xuannian looked at the person who was knocking on the table, his brows were tightened, and asked, "Lan'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Hmm, what are you thinking about how the Xu family will calculate us?"

Wang Xuannian said: "Will they still calculate us? ”

Zhong Xuanlan looked at Wang Xuannian and smiled, didn't say anything more, and picked up the teacup to drink tea.

When Wang Xuannian saw Zhong Xuanlan's fox-like smile, he always felt that she was calculating something.

Time flies, and the sun has set. At this time, a small pile of fire was erected in the camp, illuminating the camp as if it was daytime, and people came and went, and the bustling crowd was quite lively.

At the banquet place, the ministers of various families gathered in groups to chat. The wives of each family gathered in twos and threes to discuss the gossip of Kyoto City, or to see each other's sons-in-law and daughters-in-law. The ladies of the boudoir gathered in twos and threes to discuss the handsome son.

The Zhong family walked into the banquet hall slowly and walked towards the place where Uncle Guo's mansion was, passing through the crowd, from time to time someone came forward to say hello, Zhong Xuanlan handed these people over to Zhong Tinghao, and walked forward with Wang Xuannian, Zhong Xuanli followed closely when he saw this.

Zhong Tinghao snorted unhappily when he saw this pair of children who abandoned him, making the minister who was talking to him on the side think that he had spoken, and spoke more carefully, trying to make up for it.

As soon as Zhong Xuanlan sat down, he was keenly aware of a line of sight, looked back, hooked the corners of his mouth, and sneered.

Lord Huiwu panicked, knocked down the teacup in his hand, and only came back to his senses under Yahuan's reminder, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe it.

Wang Xuannian felt the change in Zhong Xuanlan's breath and asked, "Lan'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhong Xuanlan shook his head, looked at Zhong Xuanli, who was leisurely drinking tea on his right, and said in a cold tone: "Xuanli, if you are calculated tonight, the head of the Japanese family will expel you from the clan tomorrow." ”

Zhong Xuanli was full of excitement, put down the teacup, his phoenix eyes sank slightly, looked at Zhong Xuanlan and promised: "Sister, don't worry, if I am calculated, I will never affect the Zhong family." ”

Zhong Xuanlan nodded.

When Wang Xuannian heard this, some pictures flashed in his mind.

The brother-in-law seems to have no heart and no lungs, but in fact, he cares more about Zhong Xuanlan than everything, but he hides it.

Their siblings are actually the people who care about each other the most in this world, others can't intervene, if they are in danger, they will definitely give up themselves to protect each other.

He was very envious of these two people, and at the same time, he was also jealous that Zhong Xuanli could get all the care from Zhong Xuanlan.

"The emperor has arrived, and the concubine has arrived ......"

The ministers and their dependents hurriedly returned to their seats and quickly knelt down to greet them. After Emperor Jingxi and others arrived and sat down, everyone saluted and said goodbye, and everyone got up and sat down under the consent of Emperor Jingxi.

After Emperor Jingxi saw that everyone was seated, he said with a smile: "Everyone, Aiqing, today is the third day of hunting, after Lord Zhao's statistics, this year's winner is the prince of the protector, and the prince of the protector is here?" ”

The prince of the protectorate came out of the ranks, walked to the middle, not far from the head, made a salute, and stood respectfully below after receiving the permission of Emperor Jingxi.

Emperor Jingxi glanced at the prince of the protector and nodded with satisfaction, and said, "The prince of the protector, your son is good." ”

The Lord Protector stood up and saluted, said some modest words, and praised the son of Emperor Jingxi again.

Zhong Xuanli listened with relish and said, "It's a pity that this protector doesn't go to be the imperial history." ”

Zhong Tinghao snorted and said, "Old fritters." ”

Wang Xuannian listened to the evaluation of the father and son, looked at the guardian Guogong carefully, and nodded in agreement.

Zhong Xuanlan said: "What do you see? ”

Wang Xuannian looked at Zhong Xuanlan who was looking in front of him inexplicably, was she talking to him?

Zhong Xuanlan didn't wait for a response, turned his head to look at Wang Xuannian, and said, "What do you see?" ”

Wang Xuannian said: "He is very tactful. ”

Zhong Xuanlan looked at Wang Xuannian with sharp eyes, and said: "It was originally a neutral house, but it was branded as belonging to others, and it was just the law of survival in the power scheme." ”

Wang Xuannian was stunned, pondered for a while, pulled a smile, and asked an unrealizable sentence: "Lan'er, if one day you take off the heavy responsibility of the Zhong family, are you willing to live in seclusion with me in the mountains and forests." ”

Zhong Xuanlan was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes and was silent, slowly turned his head to look away, and responded for a long time: "Xuannian, the Zhong family is a responsibility that I can't get rid of in my life. If you want to quit, yet. ”

Before he finished speaking, Wang Xuannian hurriedly reached out to hold her hand and interjected: "Lan'er, I have nothing, I only have you, don't leave me." ”

Zhong Xuanlan turned his head slightly and stared at him for a long time, Wang Xuannian waited nervously for Zhong Xuanlan's answer, saw her nodding slightly, and smiled at her.

Under the light of Zhong Xuanlan's fire, his immature and delicate face exuded a light, which was very dazzling, and he was a little obsessed with it, and said after coming back to his senses: "Little guy, you look so good when you smile." ”

Wang Xuannian held back his shame, looked at those eyes, and said, "Does Lan'er like it?" ”

Zhong Xuanlan smiled evilly and said, "I like it." ”

Zhong Xuanli said suddenly: "Tsk, you two are enough." ”

When Wang Xuannian heard this, his face quickly turned red, he lowered his head and didn't say anything more.

Zhong Xuanlan shook his head slightly, turned his head and glanced at Zhong Xuanli coldly, and turned his head to look at the few people in the head.

Zhong Xuanli felt cold, shrunk his neck, and picked up the teacup to drink tea to add a little warmth.

"I have given the prince of the protector a cold iron bow, hoping that the prince will protect the peace of the Dongyuan frontier."

After thanking the prince of the protectorate, he took the bow and arrow carried by the two attendants. At the suggestion of some people, the prince of the protector shot an arrow, which won unanimous praise from everyone.

Emperor Jingxi sat on the top, looking at the flattering minister, his heart was displeased, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Zhong Xuanlan sneered, this is probably a common problem of superiors, suspicious, it is undeniable that she also has it, but she is not as ruthless as him.

Emperor Jingxi ordered the eunuchs around him to hold a banquet, and after the eunuchs received the order, they shouted to everyone: "The emperor has an order to hold a banquet." ”

One by one, it didn't take long for a group of palace maids to slowly walk in with trays, shuttling in front of each table to place wine and food.

Zhong Xuanli pursed his lips and said, "Sister, the medicine is in the bowl." ”

Zhong Xuanlan raised his eyebrows and said, "Go ahead." ”

"I'm still hungry."

Zhong Xuanlan looked at Zhong Xuanli with a slight cold gaze and said, "Do you want me to serve you a bowl of soup?" ”

Zhong Xuanli shook his head and slowly got up and left.

Zhong Xuanlan commanded: "Zhong You follows." He raised his eyes slightly and glanced at everyone, raised his wine glass to the county lord of Huiwu, and said silently: Let's watch the play together.

Liu Yuan found out about the actions of the two, narrowed his eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at the third princess and said, "Princess, you didn't do anything tonight." ”

The third princess smiled and said, "Someone did it." ”

Liu Yuan picked up the wine glass and played with it, looking at Zhong Xuanlan, he was really not easy to mess with, but who would win tonight was really exciting.

Li Guifei and Emperor Jingxi proposed to let the ladies perform, and Emperor Jingxi agreed.

The ladies of all families rushed to perform, Zhong Xuanlan admired it with interest, and was not worried about Zhong Xuanli at all.

Zhong Tinghao pulled Wang Xuannian to sit in Zhong Xuanli's position and began to discuss with Wang Xuannian how to sing and dance.

Wang Xuannian listened to the understatement from time to time, or glanced at Zhong Xuanlan before answering, for fear that Zhong Xuanlan would be angry, but found that his family Lan'er was more interested in these than his father-in-law, and sighed, Lan'er, you really don't need to be like this, you are more captivating than them.
