Chapter 50: The Hundred Flowers Banquet 1

"Li Yuqi, you want to marry the fifth prince, you want to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, let me tell you, you are dreaming, from now on, you don't want to marry the fifth prince! Hum! ”

When the words fell, the Duchess flicked her sleeves and left with an angry face.

The ladies and ladies also gradually left, and a woman walked up to her, squatted down, with a sneer in her eyes, and mocked: "Li Yuqi, I didn't expect to have a sweet dream just now, but this time it turned into a nightmare, hahaha, hahaha......"

"It's just that it's so ridiculous that I want to marry the fifth prince with such indiscriminate means, and I don't see if I am worthy of it."

"That's it, I see what kind of face she has to participate in this Hundred Flowers Banquet......"

Unconsciously, Li Yuqi bit her mouth open, she stared at Su Yexi's departing back, her face was hideous, her slender hands were clenched into fists, her slender nails were almost embedded in the flesh, her eyes were even more cold, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Su Yexi, slut, it's a good thing for me, I, Li Yuqi, swear, I must make your life worse than death!"

Time passed minute by minute, and there was still half an hour before the Hundred Flowers Banquet, but Su Yexi had already arrived at the Phi Xiang Palace, which was the largest and most magnificent palace in the palace. It is located in the center of the whole palace, the courtyard is bright and open, and there are ten auspicious beasts on the four corners of the high eaves and teeth, which are vivid and lifelike. The interior decoration of the Phi Xiang Hall is very luxurious, which is breathtaking. The outer beams are decorated with the highest level of Japanese seal paintings, the upper parts of the doors and windows are inlaid with a rhombic pattern, and the lower part is embossed with a cloud dragon pattern. The hall is paved with gold bricks, and the gilded dragon pillar is a few people hugging each other.

At this time, more than 100 rosewood low tables with delicate patterns have been placed in a neat and orderly manner, and the tablecloth with excellent embroidery is laid on the table, and the delicate celadon cups and saucers are placed on it. There are palace ladies dressed in pink palace clothes shuttling around, busy placing melons and fruit snacks, red lights in the hall are hung high, ribbons are flying, and thousands of pots of exotic flowers and flowers are posing in various shapes.

The whole hall is full of flowers, and thousands of purples and thousands of reds are connected into one, almost becoming a sea of flowers.

A breeze blows, and the dark fragrance fills the sleeves, which makes people feel refreshed.

Seeing all kinds of delicate pastries on the table, Su Yexi couldn't help but feel a little greedy, in the morning, Mama Hua made her some mung bean cakes to stop her hunger and eat, and when she entered the palace, it has been half a day, but she has not touched a drop of rice.

She looked at the gap, quickly took a plate of crystal jade steamed cake from the table, a plate of vine flower cake, poured it directly into the skirt, walked out of the hall quickly with her skirt, found a secluded place to sit down, picked up the jade steamed cake and took a bite.

"Well, it's really a dim sum in the palace, and it tastes really good."

Su Yexi couldn't help but praise that the jade steamed cake was sweet but not greasy, and there was a faint mint fragrance in his mouth when he ate it.

By this time, her stomach was rumbling with hunger, and the pastries were delicious, and she devoured them unceremoniously.

"Ahem, ahem......"

Unexpectedly, she ate too quickly, and choked on the last bite, which made her roll her eyes.

"Drink some water! Don't choke. A cup appeared in front of him.

This is really a blessing in disguise! Su Yexi couldn't help but say, took it and drank it happily.

After drinking, he reacted, and suddenly he was clever and stood up, only to see Murong Yi standing next to him, a hint of color flashing in his dark eyes.

Su Yexi was startled, how could she not be damn to meet him, There was a slight light in her eyes, and she hurriedly bent her knees to salute: "The courtiers participate in the five princes."

Murong Yi looked at her with a smile and didn't answer.

Su Yexi had to raise his voice slightly, and saluted again: "The courtiers have seen the five princes. ”

Murong Yi still didn't answer, Su Yexi couldn't help frowning slightly, what is going on with this fifth prince? Salute him and don't speak, what do you want to do?

Murong Yi didn't speak, Su Yexi could only maintain the posture of saluting, after a long time, her knees were a little sore, the impatience between her eyebrows and eyes became more and more obvious, and finally heard someone's faint words: "Get up."

"Don't disturb the prince to enjoy the flowers, the courtiers will retire." Su Yexi wanted to avoid it.

Murong Yi blocked in front of her for a moment, and a pair of eyes like stars flashed with a smile that was almost charming.

"Miss Su is in a hurry to go, there is still half an hour before the Hundred Flowers Banquet, don't be in a hurry."

Su Yexi's eyes flashed with a trace of impatience, and he said in an unkind tone: "Fifth prince, it is not appropriate for you and me to speak here, if you are seen by others, I am afraid that there will be some gossip."

"Really?"

Murong Yi's eyes shone brightly, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, pulling out a touch of meaning: "Actually, this prince just wanted to come to thank Miss Su, just now there were many people in the lotus pond, and I also thanked him, it is really thanks to Miss Su, otherwise this prince will be calculated by that Li Yuqi, dumb and eat coptis, I can't say if I have suffering, what does Miss Su want, even if I put it forward, the gold, silver and jewelry are still silk and satin?"

Su Yexi's eyebrows drooped slightly, and she said lightly: "The courtiers don't want anything, and Your Highness doesn't have to thank me, the courtiers just did what they had to do, if it was someone else, they would definitely speak for Your Highness."

"If His Highness has nothing else to do, the courtiers will retire first."

When the words fell, Su Yexi left in a hurry, Murong Yi stared at her departing back, and there was a cold dark light flickering slightly in her narrow eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

Su Yexi hurried to the Phi Xiang Palace, as soon as the time arrived, the banquet officially began, if he was late, he was afraid that he would be punished.

When she arrived, the hall was already full of people, dragons and phoenixes spitting pearls, flowers and flowers, and a strange fragrance.

She quickly walked in from the side door, bowed her head into the hall, the seats are divided into left and right sides, the left is the male seat, the right is the female seat, the seats on both sides are arranged in order according to the status of the person, and she in order not to be noticeable, sat in the last row, raised her eyes to look at the main seat, the emperor, the queen has not yet arrived, everyone in the hall is talking and laughing, a scene of harmony.

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

With the eunuch's announcement, Emperor Murong Tian, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, and Empress Yun, who was dressed in a bright red phoenix robe, walked in one after another. They were followed by a group of concubines and princesses.

As the emperor and the queen walked slowly, everyone in the Phi Xiang Hall got up and left their seats, lined up according to the grade and year, led by the eunuch of the ceremony, followed the white marble steps on the main hall, bowed to the emperor and queen from afar, and bowed in unison: "See the emperor, the queen, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the queen mother."

Su Yexi was no exception to kneeling on the floor with a bright light, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a bright yellow and bright red slowly passing in front of him, and then went straight up the steps of the white jade, and after a while, he heard the emperor's calm and majestic voice, "Let's all be flat!" ”

"Emperor Xie!"

Soon, everyone had already stood up and sat back in their seats, and after sitting down again, Su Yexi raised his eyes and looked up, and on the gilded dragon chair sat Murong Tian in a bright yellow dragon robe. Although he has passed the age of confusion, there is no gray in the green silk like ink, and even his facial features are still resolute, compared with the young princes, he is a little more mature and restrained.

On his left sat the smiling but majestic Queen Yun, with exquisite makeup and a graceful and luxurious phoenix robe. On the right sits the crown prince Murong Jing, the son of Queen Yun, the orthodox blood of the royal family, and his maternal grandfather is one of the three princes, who is the famous Dingguo Gong Yunyan.

The Yun family is the Quanmen Wang clan at the top of the pyramid of the Yi Kingdom, a century-old family, with a profound heritage, Yun Yan has one-fifth of the military power of the Yi State in his hands, and has 300,000 excellent soldiers and horses, brave and good at fighting.

These soldiers followed Yun Guogong all the way to the south and the north, and walked on the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood to this day, almost belonging to the diehard party of the Yun family.

And he himself can also be called the dragon and phoenix among the people, resourceful, martial, can be Anbang, Wen, can be Dingguo, and he is handsome, almost all Yiguo women dream of the husband and the best choice.

At this Hundred Flowers Banquet, in addition to the most popular prince Murong Jing, the fifth prince Murong Yi is the most worth looking forward to, Murong Yi is the most favored son of Emperor Yuan Cheng, and the hope coveted for him greatly exceeds that of the prince, and some people even say that if it weren't for the early death of Concubine Chen, the current queen is only afraid of Concubine Chen.

Murong Yi has a cold personality, he was born with a handsome and uncast jade tree face, he is the most outstanding among the princes, and he is the only one who can be compared with the prince.

In the previous life, everyone thought that the five princes were the most likely to ascend the throne, but who knows, it turned out that the sixth prince, who was the least favored, ascended the throne.

The other concubines sat under them, namely the concubines, the concubines, the concubines, and so on, and under the heads of those concubines, there were the princes and princesses.

As soon as the time came, the eunuch shouted in a sharp voice: "The auspicious time has arrived, and the Hundred Flowers Banquet has officially begun."

With the order of the eunuch, the banquet began, the banquet was very lively, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless, the palace maid with long sleeves and good dancing entered the hall in a graceful manner, holding exquisite dishes, the emperor and queen saluted the first glass of wine to everyone, and the atmosphere in the hall became lively.

The banquet was staggered, the words were cheerful, and the joy was harmonious. The performances at the banquet were one after another, and the participants enjoyed the wonderful performances while drinking wine and tasting the food.

Su Yexi chewed slowly and savored the delicious food at the banquet.

"Well, how are you? It seems that we are really destined. ”

Suddenly, a soft voice sounded beside him, like the song of a lark, euphemistic and moving.

Su Yexi didn't pay attention at first, but when the man said it again, she raised her head and said in amazement: "Talking to me?" ”

"Of course, I don't know if this young lady remembers me."

The girl next to her was wearing a light cyan gauze skirt, with a gilt dot emerald on her sideburns, elegant and vulgar, with a light and spiritual atmosphere, delicate skin, green eyebrows, bright eyes, peach cheeks with a smile, and an indescribable gentleness.
