After the guests stepped forward to toast, they began to sing and dance, and then dozens of dancing girls wearing lotus pink dance long-sleeved skirts stepped forward one after another, accompanied by the music played by the musicians in the interior, the dancers slowly threw off their sleeves, and their light and graceful posture swayed, which made people forget the vulgarity.

Xiao Mingyue looked at it, but she didn't see Yu Wendi's figure. Although the Northern Wei Dynasty had already sent people to congratulate him, with Yu Wendi's character, it was very abnormal not to appear.

Thinking that he must be worried about the previous marriage with King An Rui, maybe he was afraid that he would resent him? I don't think this is Yu Wendi's character.

Afterwards, I heard the chamberlain say loudly: "Prince Yuwen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, I specially ordered someone to send valuable gifts to congratulate me on the establishment of the Chen State!" "

After speaking, I saw a small official come in with a guard, among whom the guard held a statue of the emperor in his hand, with a gilded body and a lifelike appearance, and walked to the middle of the hall The little official knelt down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Prince Yuwen learned that His Majesty has first ascended to the throne today, and he has specially created this statue with countless skilled craftsmen, and I wish Chen Guo and the country prosperity!" "

Chen Xian heard this, smiled and said, "In this way, you go back and thank Yuwen Gongzi for me, this statue is accepted by a widow!" "

Then someone at the bottom opened his mouth and said: "The appearance of this portrait is very similar to Your Majesty, it can be seen that this Yuwen Gongzi is so hearted!" "

"Yes, it's exactly the same as Your Majesty!"

"It's not something that ordinary craftsmen can do!"

Here are all sorts of things, you and I will say one sentence at a time.

After a while, the little official added: "Back to Your Majesty, Prince Yuwen also specially blessed the servants, after handing over this statue to Your Majesty, there is still a word to pass on to Your Majesty!" "

When Chen Xian heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What words?!" "

The little official said slowly: "Childe said, this statue should belong to Your Majesty, although there are no good things in the world, but there is another statue in the hand of Yuwen Gongzi, Gongzi is carving with heart, and Gongzi will stay firmly by his side." Childe hopes that His Majesty can cherish this one, and don't worry about that one anymore! "

Zhang Shizhong listened, snorted coldly and said: "Since there was originally a couple, in order to show sincerity, why don't you all come in and offer them?" Everyone says that the Yuwen family of the Northern Wei Dynasty is rich and white, and in my opinion, there is also a trace of petty family! "

The petty official then said: "Yuwen Gongzi said that in life, you can give up anything, but there is one thing that you must strive for, and you must not make the slightest concession. This other statue is! Childe said, Your Majesty listened, and naturally understood! "

After hearing this, Zhang Shizhong laughed a few times and said, "This Yuwen Gongzi is really interesting!" Give a gift but deliberately don't give it completely! "

And Chen Xian listened to the words of the little official, and had already realized that there was something in the words, which meant that Yu Wendi's other portrait must be engraved with Xiao Mingyue, and of course he would not send a complete pair to him, so that the little official would send a message to imply that he would definitely not give up Xiao Mingyue, and he would have full confidence to get Xiao Mingyue from his side.

Then he smiled and said to the little official: "Go back and tell Yu Wendi, just say that the widow must get the portrait in his hand, and the widow must carve it himself!" "

Then, when he got the word, the petty official withdrew.

And everyone only thought that Chen Xian was a joke just now, and they all felt that Chen Xian was now the king of a country, and he was never greedy for money and lustful, how could he be obsessed with a statue!

The people at the bottom just listened to a joke!

Xiao Mingyue's heart was like a mirror, she could understand the meaning of Yu Wendi and Chen Xian's words to each other, and finally understood why Yu Wendi did not attend today, and thought to herself: "Although the two of them are in a relationship of love and enemies, there is no need to hide words in such words. Is this a provocation? "

suddenly felt that Yu Wendi was really mature and a little "naïve", at least emotionally.

I also thought that as long as the two countries continue to maintain friendly diplomatic relations, it will be equivalent to national peace and security.

"Provocation is provocation, as long as they don't joke with the interests of the two countries!" Xiao Mingyue muttered to herself in an extremely low voice.

Xiao Wan looked at Xiao Mingyue and said, "Sister Yue? Sister Yue? What happened to you? "

"I didn't ...... Nothing, suddenly thought of some inconsequential things in my palace. Xiao Mingyue said.

Xiao Wan said: "Oh. Sister Yue, what do you mean by Yu Wendi's words! Is it on purpose on **? Or has he become petty now? "

Xiao Mingyue smiled and said, "Who knows! He is such a gentleman, I think he has nothing to do! "

Then, he handed a piece of cake to Xiao Wan and said, "Aren't you hungry for a long time?" Don't hurry up and eat something! "

When Xiao Wan heard Xiao Wan say this, she didn't think much about it, took the pastry and turned around to eat.

Throughout the banquet, Xiao Mingyue didn't look at Chen Xian in order not to attract attention, and only sat in her seat quietly and low-key.

But Chen Xian looked at Xiao Mingyue from time to time, but all this was seen by Zhen Miaoxia.

Because she never left Chen Xian from the beginning of the banquet. This time, I specially begged my father and grandfather to finally enter the palace as the daughter of an official, in order to see the emperor's demeanor!

"I have long heard that Your Majesty has already risen to prominence when he was a teenager, first saving the great prince of the previous dynasty who was not born to Emperor Wu of Liang, and then quelling the rebellion of Nanzhao and breaking Zhu Rong's army. Such a heroic, well-deserved leader among the people, and now he is the wish of the people, and the people are expected to become the emperor and establish the state of Chen! It's so adorable! "

Wangqing, the little girl beside her, looked around vigilantly, and then said to Zhen Miaoxia: "Miss, above this banquet, it can be said that there are many people, don't say too much, after all, if you talk too much, you will lose!" The slave just looked at you vigorously at His Majesty's side, and you really have the demeanor of a disgraceful lady! "

Zhen Miaoxia listened, spat softly, and said, "You little hoof, I'm acting as a young lady, where can I use you to point fingers!" Do you want to be punished?! We'll get back to the house and see how I clean you up! "

That little girl Wangqing was born dark, thin and short, and outsiders looked like a girl who had never been in time.

Because Zhen Miaoxia's personal big girl Shiqi has something to do in her hometown, she has not returned from visiting relatives, and the other girls dare not come over with the young lady.

asked Wangqing to follow Zhen Miaoxia into the palace to attend the banquet, but he didn't want to persuade the young lady well, but he would be punished.

couldn't help but feel aggrieved, but at the banquet, he didn't dare to show it too much, and sobbed behind him from time to time.

Seeing such a weak and deceitful Wangqing, Zhen Miaoxia scolded impatiently: "Okay, okay!" It's a good day, but you're really disappointed! So be it! If I don't blame you, just now I noticed that Your Majesty looked in that direction many times (so I pointed to the direction of Xiao Mingyue's seat)

, you go and check, what is the identity of that girl over there? What's the matter!?"

Looking at Wangqing's aggrieved appearance, Zhen Miaoxia impatiently urged: "Don't go yet!" Standing here is a corpse! "

The little girl Wangqing then hurriedly wiped away her tears, and quietly found a few palace maids to inquire carefully.

On Xiao Mingyue's side, Xiao Wan looked around while eating peach blossom cake, and then said to Xiao Mingyue: "Sister Mingyue, that girl over there seems to have been looking at you just now!" "

"Who?" Xiao Mingyue listened to Xiao Huan's words, and looked in the direction of Xiao Huan's gaze.

"Zhen Miaoxia?" Xiao Mingyue said.

Xiao Wan said: "It turns out that she is the famous dominatrix in Jiankang City, Zhen Miaoxia!" It's okay, the skin is a little yellow, the neck is broken, and the temper is so bad, I won't be able to get married in the future! When she looks at Sister Yue'er, she must be jealous of her sister's beauty, don't pay attention to her! "

Xiao Mingyue smiled, and then said to Xiao Huan: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing." What's more, sometimes, what the eye sees is not the truth. You and I have never been in contact with Miss Zhen, how can we arbitrarily comment on her personality based on hearsay! "

Xiao Wan listened, frowned the thin willow eyebrows, and then nodded and said, "Sister said very much, but it's just ......"

"Just what?" Xiao Mingyue asked.

Xiao Wan leaned sideways and leaned close to Xiao Mingyue's ear and said, "Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles." If she really wasn't as terrible as rumored, she must not be a gentle and virtuous person! "

As he spoke, he quietly asked the clever little palace maid beside him to go to Zhen Miaoxia's side to find out.

After a while, the clever little palace maid came back and said: "Back to the princess, the slave maid just talked to Miss Zhen's maid, and asked the maids of several other young ladies, as rumored, that Miss Zhen is really a tigress, short-tempered, often unreasonable, even her own father, and grandfather have nothing to do with her, it is said that her mother is an old girl, born pampered, spoiled! "

Xiao Wan listened, "poof" out of music, and said to Xiao Mingyue after the year: "Sister Yue, it seems that what I said is right!" She's a tigress! Dominatrix! "

Xiao Mingyue said angrily: "Everyone has shortcomings, even so, she is just spoiled, you shouldn't ridicule her like this!" "

"Oh! Got it! Xiao Wan listened to Xiao Mingyue's advice very much, stuck out her tongue, put away the smile on her face, continued to watch the song and dance, and couldn't help but praise in her heart: "It's so lively, if Ji Gongzi is here, just play a song, you will be able to dominate the crowd, if you change women's clothes, you can overwhelm the crowd." "

So, while watching the song and dance, I thought about Ji Yulai.

After Zhen Miaoxia's girl over there went back, she told Zhen Miaoxia what she had heard about Xiao Mingyue.

Regarding Xiao Mingyue's identity, her relationship with Chen Xian, and so on.

Zhen Miaoxia stomped her feet a little anxiously when she heard this, and said, "In this way, she and Your Majesty have known each other for a long time!" Suffered! They have known each other for so long, Your Majesty must not like her! "
