Chapter 53: A Restless Night

At this time, the Zhaoyun Palace, the envoys of various countries and the vassal kings of various places, as well as the ministers, all arrived at the Zhaoyun Hall and were already sitting in the Zhaoyun Palace.

The little emperor helped the queen mother to walk in the front, Zhong Licong walked behind the little emperor, and Ye Xi walked beside the queen mother.

They slowly sat down, and everyone below stood up and saluted the emperor and the queen mother.

Ye Xi sat on the left hand side of the Queen Mother, and also stood up to salute and congratulate the New Year.

I only heard a deafening voice, "The minister (courtier) sees the emperor, the queen mother, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" The Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose! Congratulations to the emperor and the queen mother!

I wish the country of Rongjiang a prosperous spring and autumn and an eternal future! ”

Then the emperor said flat, and then said to his personal eunuch Yan Gonggong that the banquet could begin.

So he announced, in a peculiar voice, "The feast begins, the music plays!" ”

Ye Xi sat in her place, listening to the percussion music coming from both sides, listening to it quite seriously, although she didn't like the boring dances of the banquet, but the music played could be listened to, but she couldn't listen to it for too long, otherwise she would doze off.

The people at the banquet came and went, staggered, and there was a harmonious scene, but only they knew it, and these were just on the surface.

Ye Xi listened, drowsy, and at this moment, a girl in an exotic costume stood up.

She was wearing a grass-colored dress, pointed to Ye Xi, who was half-asleep and half-asleep with her hands, and declared righteously, "This princess wants to compete with you!" ”

Her voice was heard throughout the hall, and suddenly the hall fell silent, waiting for Ye Xi's answer.

When Ye Xi was in the main hall, the soft cry of falling asleep came to those who had good ears, and everyone was surprised in their hearts, she couldn't be asleep!

The Queen Mother, who was closest to her, looked at everyone's suspicious and surprised faces, and called her softly, "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi." ”

In a half-awake state, a certain woman seemed to hear the queen mother's shout, and she muttered a few words, "Queen Mother, don't call me, let me sleep for a while, I'm sleepy." A certain woman replied with her eyes closed, then found a more comfortable position, leaned directly on the back of the chair, put her hands on the handles, rested her head on her hands and fell asleep again.

This time, everyone understood that someone was about to challenge her just now, but she didn't hear it at all, and she slept so soundly on such an occasion.

Ye Yi looked doting on his face, and shook his head funny, this girl, in front of the New Year's Dynasty banquet, this kind of state banquet, actually slept in front of the New Year's banquet, and she slept in a dignified manner, which really made people laugh and cry.

The little emperor saw that she was asleep, so pitiful and loving, that people wanted to hide her from others.

The woman who was going to compete with her, seeing that she didn't hear what she said at all, gave her a war letter, and she was still sleeping, so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger.

The little emperor smiled lightly and said to the woman, "The little princess of the mountain country, the princess is asleep, so I won't compare, and I will compare next time I have the opportunity." ”

Then, he was about to order someone to help her to the inner hall to rest, but the little princess of the mountain country did not give up, and she shouted loudly, "Princess Yexi, Princess Yexi, wake up, this princess will compete with you!" "It's such a loud voice, anyone has to wake up.

This little princess had already heard that Rongjiang had newly named the minister's sister as the eldest princess, and she wanted to compete with her, why could a minister's official eunuch miss be named a princess, and he respected Rongjiang as the main country, how could he recognize a minister's young lady as a princess at will?

Ye Xi was woken up by her shouting, and got up with a little anger, "It's noisy, shut up!" She opened her wistful eyes, looked at the source of the voice below, and roared.

A certain woman's expression was not good, and she sneered, "Princess of the Mountain Country, right!" Are you sick in the brain and disturbing this girl's sleep? If you want to find someone to compete, go back to your mountain country, and don't make noise about this girl. She had just slept in a daze when she heard something about it.

The little princess of the mountain country had never been yelled at like this, and she scolded angrily, "You are not worthy of being a princess, you are a complete woman." ”

A certain woman rolled her eyes speechlessly, "I'm not tough, do your, don't you want to compete?" All right! Come on! When you hit it, you cry dad and call mother, don't blame me! ”

Everyone looked at the woman in front of them, but her movements and tone were so vulgar, those ministers felt very embarrassed by their faces, and they all looked at her unhappily.

Ye Xi didn't care what others thought of her, she walked down and came to the stage, and the dancing girls slowly retreated.

Ye Xi threw away the floor-length dress outside, and stood opposite the little princess, smiling confidently, "When you lose later, remember to apologize to me in front of all of them and say sorry." ”

The little princess looked disdainful, "Wrong, you should say sorry to me in front of everyone later!" ”

Ye Xi hooked his lips and smiled coldly and arrogantly, but did not speak.

The little princess said, "Choose a weapon, or you will lose later, so as not to say that this princess is not victorious." She said proudly with the whip in her hand.

She doesn't know how to have internal strength, she can only strike first, her figure is extremely fast, and she also said in her mouth, "So much nonsense!" ”

Her shadow came to her silently like a ghost, and she had dodged her whip in a clever gesture. Seeing this dangerous situation, the people who were worried about Ye Xi had nervousness and encouragement on their faces.

Ye Xi took the opportunity to squeeze her hand and snatched her long whip, and with the other hand struck quickly, a silver needle as thin as a hair appeared, and she stabbed into her acupoint in the blink of an eye.

Then the little princess did the whipping pose, unable to move.

Ye Xi circled around her again, and after sealing all her acupoints, he walked up to her with a smile.

The little princess was so angry that her face was red, "If you have the ability, you let go of me, we really have a fight." ”

Ye Xi sneered, "This girl has neither internal strength nor martial arts, let me really fight with you, do you think I'm so stupid?" ”

She said, with a slender silver needle twisted on her finger, "Do you want to hear the voice of your crying father and mother?" This girl is in a bad mood today, so I'll give you a try! ”

Next, she plunged into the Neiguan point at her wrist, and she screamed in pain, which sounded heart-rending enough.

Ye Xi's ears hurt from her screams, and he deliberately plucked out his ears, with a casual and comfortable face, "This is just a small lesson with you, remember, don't disturb me to sleep next time." ”

The envoy of the Xiangshan Kingdom brought by the little princess was extremely dissatisfied on his face, "Princess, please raise your noble hand and unlock the acupoint of the princess of our country!" ”

Ye Xi looked at her subordinates, "Okay, carry your princess back to the post house!" When I'm in a good mood, I'll untie her acupoints. This is obviously telling them that now that they are in a bad mood, the acupoints will not be solved.

After Ye Xi said these words arrogantly, he saluted the Queen Mother and the Emperor, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the courtiers are too sleepy, so take the first step, go back and make up for sleep, bye!" He waved his hand at them, regardless of whether they agreed or not, yawned, and strode out of the Zhaoyun Palace.

Seeing this, Ye Yi stood up, "Back to the emperor, the queen mother, please forgive the princess for her rude behavior, the minister is worried about her safety, so he will retire first!" ”

The emperor nodded, "Ye Qing, go!" ”

The Queen Mother didn't speak, although she didn't know the etiquette just now, but she won the contest and didn't embarrass Rong Jiangguo, so she let her go.

The banquet continued, and after Ye Xi left the main hall, his elder brother followed, and said in a doting tone, "Little sister, come, my brother will carry you!" ”

As he spoke, he squatted down, and Ye Xi smiled happily, "Okay! However, don't dislike your little sister! ”

Ye Xi leaned on his back, Ye Yi sighed bitterly, "The little sister is not heavy at all, it's too light, remember to eat more and grow more meat in the future, otherwise my brother will be distressed." ”

Ye Xi said, "Brother, I eat a lot of food at every meal, but he doesn't grow meat!" ”

Ye Yi carried him behind his back and chatted with her, "Little sister, no matter what happens in the future, you have to remember that with your brother here, you will never let your little sister be wronged, and your brother will always stand behind you to protect you." ”

Ye Yi actually knew that she was secretly cultivating power, he understood that she wanted to avenge the Su family by herself, he just felt too sorry for her, this bloody path of revenge was not suitable for her, but he also understood that she would never give up, because that was the only driving force that supported her to survive.

Ye Xi listened to his sensational words, and seemed to understand in his heart, he knew what he was doing secretly? But she trusts his brother won't stop her.

At the end of the New Year's Dynasty Banquet, the small affiliated countries and the vassal kings of various places left Yuling City one after another.

After a week, the entire royal team began to return to Zhiwan City.

At this time, the old emperor has been ill since the Spring Festival, and the imperial doctor is helpless.

At this time, Yining City was full of rumors, and the forces in the dark were about to move, and they were all looking towards that position.

In the past few days, the state affairs of the DPRK and China have been handed over to the crown prince, and the ministers of the DPRK and China have begun to stand in line.

At this time, there were three huge forces in the Chengguo court, first, the prince's faction headed by the prince; the Yue Wang faction headed by the Yue Wang; The faction of the king of Nancang led by the king of Nancang.

The three forces seem to maintain a balance, but in fact, the most powerful is the Yue Wang faction.

In the dead of night, I only heard that the Nancang Mansion was still singing and dancing, and it was very lively. In fact, the king of Nancang is just hiding people's eyes, he is secretly gathering all the forces, preparing to surround the imperial city and force the palace to rebel.

The king of Nancang and several ministers of the court, sitting in his study, were plotting a palace coup d'Γ©tat tomorrow night.

On the table in the study, surrounded by a group of people, King Nancang pointed to the imperial city deployment map on the table, and said to the guard of the south gate of the imperial city, "Tomorrow night, you lead your left and right guard camps, take the north city gate and the east and west city gates to this king, and after surround the entire imperial city, no matter who they are, they are not allowed to enter the city, nor are they allowed to leave the city, and this king will be strictly guarded." ”

Then, he pointed to the palace, "Tomorrow night, my father-in-law and this king will go straight to the palace with soldiers and horses, and they will enter the palace. ”

Then, everyone nodded firmly, and shouted in their mouths, "The ministers swear allegiance to His Royal Highness the King of Nancang!" ”

Shen Yunhan clenched his fists and said, "It's up to you tomorrow night." When he said this, his voice was haughty.

In the Yue Wangfu here, Shen Yunche sat in front of the bookcase, playing the acacia song, and Jing Yi came to report, "Your Highness, as Your Highness expected, there is movement in the Nancang Palace!" Gu secret agent returned, tomorrow night they will force the palace to rebel. ”

Shen Yunche continued to play the guqin on his bookcase, his posture was not shocked, and there were no waves.

He said indifferently, "Do what you want!" ”

Jing Yi clenched his fists, "Yes." After that, he went out.
