CHAPTER XXVII

When the group returned to the post station, they immediately began to dress up and prepare to attend the state banquet after dawn. Si Kouxi watched Qi Jia tie her hair in front of the mirror, and she asked softly, "Qi Jia, we'll be fine, right?" Qi Jia had never seen Si Kouxi so worried, she continued the movements in her hands, and said softly: "Princess, don't worry, you will definitely succeed." After Si Kouxi helped himself apply the lipstick, he turned around and walked out of the room.

Qi Jia looked at Si Kouxi's back, and silently thought in his heart: The princess will definitely succeed. The group set off from the post house, Lan Jing took Si Kouxi's hand in the carriage and smiled at her, his eyes were full of firmness, and Si Kouxi's heart gradually settled down.

Finally arrived at the gate of the palace, all the way in, Si Kouxi looked at the familiar and unfamiliar scenes in front of her, she remembered the happy time she had with her aunt in her mind, she suddenly grabbed Lan Jing's arm and said, "I miss my aunt."

"Only Lan Jing and they know who her aunt is. When Si Kouxi saw Mu Xi again, she couldn't help but clench her fists, she looked at this full of luxury, these were all exchanged by her aunt, and he was ungrateful and swallowed everything alone. Mu Xi had already come over when she was distracted, Lan Jing and Lan Qiong both saluted him, although Si Kouxi was unwilling, but she represented Lan Jing and Tengxiao Kingdom, and she could not be willful. The music in her ears and the dance in front of her couldn't disturb Si Kouxi's heart, she was waiting, waiting for everyone to arrive, waiting for the night to come. Mu Xi talked to Lan Jing enthusiastically, revealing between the lines his willingness to build friendship with Teng Xiaoguo. Lan Jing responded, but some inconsequential words were said in four or two. Mu Xi was also extremely disgusted with Lan Jing who had no waves, thinking that sooner or later, a hairy child like him, would let him plant it in his hands. As the hours ticked by, Si Kouxi became more and more nervous. Suddenly, a eunuch rushed to the big eunuch's side in a panic, and Lan Jing drank a glass of wine and said, "It's started." Si Kouxi nodded, and Lan Qiong also shook her wine glass and said, "I'm going to start performing." The great eunuch immediately ran to the emperor's side to pray, but unfortunately, before the emperor could deal with it, the remote part of the palace suddenly burst into flames, and the guests immediately stirred, and suddenly a person with a torch rushed in, and a person with an unkempt torch instantly frightened many people.

Lan Jing and the others immediately recognized who this person was, it was Mu Jinshen. The big eunuch instantly called someone to catch Jinshen, but Si Kouxi didn't expect Jinshen to be so aggressive.

She was very afraid that those people would hurt Jin Shen, she grabbed Lan Jing's hand tighter and tighter, Lan Jing felt Si Kouxi's nervousness, took her into her arms, and gave her silent comfort.

Mu Jinshen rampaged here with a torch, disturbing a bunch of people. Mu Xi would never allow anyone to ruin his state banquet, and even shouted: "The archers are in place!" Lan Qiong immediately spoke up and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, you are not sure who this person is, are you going to shoot him?" It's too cruel! Silvermoon to subdue him! Yinyue immediately rushed out, and Jinshen pretended to struggle in his hands for a while, and then stopped, just smirking incessantly.

One of the guests asked, "Your Majesty, who is this, who is so reckless on such an important day!" I haven't seen this person for too long, Mu Xi is even going to forget this child, he pulled the corners of his mouth and said: "A madman locked up in the cold palace, it's all the minions who don't control it, it's really disturbing everyone's nature!" Si Kouxi, who hadn't spoken all night, suddenly pretended to be weak and said, "It looks like he's still a child, why is he crazy and locked up in the cold palace!" What kind of place is the cold palace! Lan Jing gestured to comfort, and a group of their own people looked goosebumps, looking loving.

Si Kouxi's words couldn't help but make everyone whisper earnestly, the cold palace has always been about some harem people, this child will not be Mu Xi's child.

Both the Emperor and the Empress became nervous, and how the Empress regretted that she had not killed him sooner and left this scourge behind.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, plus the prestige of Queen He was so high back then. So some people gradually thought of the former prince, and they were shocked one by one This can't be the former prince, of course, there is no lack of Si Kouxi and their people who are fueling the trouble, Lan Jing saw that the time was almost up, and suddenly sneered: "The heroic posture of Empress He back then has not lingered in my mind, I didn't expect His Majesty the Emperor of the Jianian Dynasty to treat your children like this after Empress He passed away." Whether he's crazy or stupid, you shouldn't put him in the cold! As soon as he asked this, the people at the bottom relied on Lan Jing to take the lead, and the discussion became louder and louder.

It was originally a royal secret, but now it was stabbed on the table all of a sudden, and Mu Xi now has a headache. The queen immediately sent someone to send Mu Jinshen back to the palace to settle down, hoping to reduce the commotion.

But Lan Qiong immediately said: "Stop when you send people away?" Your Majesty, you obviously don't fit the image of the market. Besides, my father used to praise Empress He for her virtuous and virtuous virtues, ability to write and martial arts, and the prince's cleverness, but now that I see you treat them like this, I probably won't come. After speaking, he raised his feet and left, and Lan Jing also helped Si Kouxi to leave.

Mu Xi couldn't stop him if he wanted to, and the envoys of various countries also left. Only a group of courtiers were left to endure Mu Xi's anger.

Lan Jing and the others returned to the post station and began to prepare for tomorrow's many matters. Royal gossip is worthy of being the most loyal topic for the people, and in one night, there are rumors in the streets.

In addition, the people of Bihai Palace mixed in to add oil and vinegar to guide the direction of public opinion, and some people even began to suspect the cause of Empress He's death that year.

Everything is according to Si Kouxi's plan, and now it is just waiting for Mu Xi to send Mu Jinshen for treatment if he can't stand the pressure.

In the palace, the emperor scolded directly in the court, and all the courtiers were in danger, Wei Zisheng slowly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, it is better to send Mu Jinshen to the Vermilion Bird Tower, where there are famous doctors in the world, and sending him there can not only gamble on the mouth, but also whether he will live in the future is another matter." The most important thing at the moment is to reverse the public opinion of the Imperial Palace, and the impression of the envoys on the Carnival Dynasty. When Mu Xi heard this, he felt that this idea was not bad, but he needed to think about it carefully, so he waved his hand to let everyone retreat, and he himself turned around and went back to the harem.

A group of ministers finally waited for the end of the early dynasty, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. Wei Zisheng, in fact, is Mu Jinshen's person, today's words are also Mu Jinshen's explanation, he hopes that he can help Mu Jinshen and complete his plan, he has also been lurking in this dynasty for nearly three years, and he can't wait.
