Seeing that the New Year has arrived, whether it is in the palace or outside the palace, festive red red lanterns are hung, red couplets are pasted on the pillars, red appliqués are pasted on the screens, and the whole Yuling City is full of joy and is ready to celebrate the New Year.

On this day, the weather is warm, the sun is rising, so that the snow that has been rolling for days is slowly melting, and Yuling City is already warmer than other places, so the snow here melts faster than other places.

Ye Xi sat in his own courtyard, in the Yijing Pavilion, several palace maids held large silver plates, which contained the gorgeous clothes and jewelry to be worn at tonight's New Year's banquet, which were all made by the emperor according to the specifications of the eldest princess, and specially sent someone to send them for her to choose.

There are four sets in total, let her choose one to wear now, and leave the remaining three sets for her to wear later.

She looked at the four palace maids on the left, the four sets of palace clothes on the silver plate, the same noble first set, a red luxurious long skirt embroidered with gold silk luan. The second set is a long brocade skirt with smoke and purple, embroidered with cloud patterns along the edges, and the flying phoenix is embroidered with gold thread in the cloud pattern, just like a phoenix flying into the sky. The third set is a lake-blue flower-like butterfly dress, and the fourth set is an ice-white silkworm ice silk moire dress, which is also gorgeous and extravagant. As for the four sets of gold, silver and jade jewelry, they match the four sets of gorgeous clothes, and they are glorious and luxurious.

She chose the brocade dress with smoke and purple, and as for the jewelry, she chose the double phoenix beads and golden wings in the third set of jewelry, as well as a pair of silver phoenix carved flower hairpins. On the ear, she chose the first set of a pair of gold-inlaid Dongzhu earrings, and on the waist, she chose the fourth set of jade tassel pendants, which she originally wore on her hands, but she felt that she didn't need to wear them on her hands, so she didn't choose.

The maids put the ones she had chosen on the table, and then handed the others to the maids in her courtyard, and they put them away.

Ye Xi went behind the screen to change her dress, and then, she sat in front of the bronze mirror, and the palace maid combed her hair and curled her hair.

An hour later, Ye Xi came out of the room, and his brother was waiting for her in front of the door.

When Ye Xi was wearing that beautiful and luxurious dress, combing the airy flying bun, and wearing the appropriate shade of makeup. At this time, she is just like the poem, graceful and elegant, light and uncontrollable. Taste the peerless color, and restore the posture of the city.

Ye Xi came to his brother's side with a smile, winked at him, and smiled playfully, "Brother, what's the matter?" Is it good-looking? She grabbed Ye Yi's hand and asked.

Ye Yi held her hand and admired sincerely, "It's good-looking, my sister is so good-looking!" ”

He said in his heart, how can it not be good-looking, just walked out of the door, and he was fascinated. In the bottom of my heart, I am very proud that she is my own sister.

Ye Yi nodded her delicate and tall nose, "Let's go!" He said to her with a doting face.

So the two held hands and came to the banquet venue, Zhaoyun Palace. The last time I was crowned as a princess, I also held it here.

When she appeared, needless to say, she was definitely the most eye-catching person.

She looked around, looking for the figures of Meng Yuan and Shen Yunmei, and found that the two were walking towards each other on the Jiuqu corridor.

Meng Yuan arrived in front of her first, her eyes were praised, and her tone was sincere, "Beautiful, beautiful, I'm afraid you are the most beautiful at this banquet!" ”

Shen Yunmei stepped forward and praised him from the same heartfelt accomplishment, "The elegance is peerless, the beauty of the country is so beautiful that I am a little jealous." She muttered.

Ye Xi smiled lightly and scolded her with a smile, "It's useless to be jealous, unless you go back to the furnace and rebuild!" ”

Shen Yunmei knew that she was deliberately angry with herself, so she learned her movements and rolled her eyes at her.

Ye Yi whispered, "Little sister, take good care of yourself, I'll go to the front and have a look!" Ye Xi snorted lightly.

The three of them sat down in the Qingfeng Pavilion next to them, and at this moment, Feng Qingshuang led a group of ladies to come here.

When Meng Yuan saw Feng Qingshuang, her face changed unpredictably in an instant, and a variety of complex emotions of anger, resentment, guilt, and remorse burned in her heart.

Ye Xi didn't have a good face when he saw that woman. Meng Yuan thought that the framing of Ye Xi was instigated by her, but there was no definite evidence, and the emperor had no way to take her, not to mention that there was the entire Feng family behind her.

Feng Qingshuang and several of her close friends sat on the railing of Qingfeng Pavilion, looking at Ye Xi with a look of envy, and when they saw Meng Yuan and Shen Yunmei, their eyes were quite disdainful.

Feng Qingshuang had a cold face and said to the friend next to her, "One is a fallen princess who fell into thieves, one is an abandoned woman who has been divorced, and the other is a foreign princess who can't get her husband's love.

The princess fell into the bandits' den, this matter is really damaging to the princess's reputation, and I don't know if the princess is still innocent? Her sarcastic words were self-evident As soon as she heard it, she had fallen into the den of thieves, and it was estimated that her innocence had already been ruined, and her reputation was gone.

Meng Yuan couldn't hold her breath the most, she was about to stand up and teach her a lesson, but Ye Xi pulled her, smiling, but the words in her mouth were extremely vicious, "Grandma, we don't have to care about a mad dog that always likes to bite people, is it possible that the mad dog bit us, do we have to return it?" If the mad dog likes to bark everywhere, let her bark enough, why waste time on the mad dog, with this time, it is better to look at the beautiful scenery around you? You tell me? These words are simply murderous without blood.

These words are bloody, every word is beautiful, and Feng Qingshuang is so angry that his face is red and his neck is thick, you, you can't say a complete sentence for a long time.

Meng Yuan learned her movements, gave her a thumbs up, and saw that she had nothing to say when she made Feng Qingshuang angry, "You cow!" ”

Ye Xi saw her pointing her finger at herself, and glanced at Feng Qingshuang with sharp eyes, "Warn you, if you point your finger at me again, I don't mind slaughtering you!" ”

These words frightened Feng Qingshuang back her fingers suddenly, her cheeks turned pale with anger, and her eyes were filled with resentment and anger, eager to bite the smiling woman in front of her.

Feng Qingshuang was so angry that she seemed to have forgotten Ye Xi's warning just now, she pointed at her again, and said angrily, "Ye Xi, don't think that you are a princess, you can do whatever you want, if you dare to hurt me, my father will not let you go easily, hum!" She also snorted coldly as a warning.

Ye Xi was sitting at the table, and in the blink of an eye, she ran to Feng Qingshuang's face, she pinched the index finger that Feng Qingshuang pointed at her, and broke it hard, only to hear the crisp sound of a bone breaking.

This voice shocked the others in a cold sweat, this scene made Feng Qingshuang stunned for a second, and then she felt a piercing pain, only to hear her scream of despair.

Seeing this, Meng Yuan and Shen Yunmei couldn't stop trembling, sure enough, who did she want to teach a lesson? I don't care what your identity is, provoke her, and go straight to her.

Feng Qingshuang was dizzy and blushing in pain, and tears came out of her eyes. She thought that she would never be able to play the pipa again, and the hatred of killing Ye Xi in her heart was even stronger.

Ye Xi's tone was harsh, "Feng Qingshuang, don't think that without evidence, you can get along well."

This is just a small lesson for you, if you provoke me again, I don't mind letting you listen to the sound of bones breaking all over your body, so that you can taste what life is worse than death! ”

Feng Qingshuang couldn't stand the pain, and after she was about to faint, she heard Ye Xi's cold warning.

Ye Xi said and glanced at Feng Qingshuang's friends coldly, "You also remember for me, if you follow her to help the abuse, I will also let you listen to it!" ”

Her words frightened several people's faces, and just now when they heard the sound of Feng Qingshuang's finger bones breaking, they were already shocked into a cold sweat, if they let them experience it themselves, they wouldn't do it.

Several people nodded again and again, saying that they would never help the abuse again, and they would definitely change their minds and be a new person.

Ye Xi said with a cold face, "Get out!" ”

Everyone left the pavilion in fear, and as for Feng Qingshuang, she was also helped by her own maid ring and disappeared from their field of vision.

This scene soon reached the ears of Feng Qingshuang's father, and he went to the queen mother and the emperor to cry, saying that he wanted to administer justice to himself.

So before the banquet began, the Queen Mother and the Emperor invited the relevant personnel to the imperial study to ask the truth.

The little emperor felt that since he met Ye Xi, he was about to become a case-solver, and every time she entered the palace, something would always happen to her and make trouble for herself.

Despite this, he liked her to make trouble for himself, so that he felt that he was still useful in front of her, at least to protect her.

When Ye Xi walked into the imperial study wearing the gorgeous dress he gave her, the little emperor was stunned, and he stared at each other without blinking his eyes.

It was Ye Xi's saluting voice that woke him up, "Ye Xi greeted the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live!" Meng Yuan and Shen Yunmei, who followed behind, also saluted together.

The little emperor said happily, "Flat, get up!" No need to be polite, just sit down! ”

Ye Xi looked at Feng Qingshuang's father opposite, but didn't see Feng Qingfeng. Feng Qingfeng actually didn't want to come to the emperor, this matter was originally his sister's fault, plus how could the emperor and the queen mother not help the princess and help their sister? It was in vain to look for it, so he preferred to stay with his friend, and at this time he was sitting in a place called Ruijing Pavilion in the beautiful Imperial Garden, and his friend was sipping tea with poems.

Feng Qingshuang's father is the Duke of Huan Guo, named Feng Yin. The Wen family, who was beheaded by the whole family, was also the official position of Huan Guogong, but he had no real power in his hands, Feng Qingshuang's father had real power in his hands, and he was also named Shangshuling in the court, and one person occupied two official positions, which was really a high power. Of course, compared with King Ming and Prime Minister, he is a little lower.

It is rare to have the same title in one dynasty, and there has only been this case in Rongjiang for so many years, mainly because the ancestors of the Feng family followed the Zhongli royal family to fight in the south and the north, and finally was named the Duke of Huan, which has been used to this day. As for the origin of the title of the Wen family, thanks to the father of the little emperor, Wen Han's father saved the life of the emperor on the battlefield, so he issued a decree to give him the title of Duke Huan Guo, indicating that he enjoyed the same name and honor as the Duke of Huan Guo at that time. This was the gratitude and admiration of the emperor to him, and this incident once aroused the open opposition of the courtiers, but the emperor insisted on doing so, and finally the matter was closed.

Feng Yin stared at Ye Xi with a vicious gaze, eager to kill him and then hurry up, "Your Majesty, please be the master of the old minister!" For the sake of the loyalty of the old ministers for generations, please ask the emperor to check clearly!

The princess disregarded her identity and caused my daughter to lose a finger, and asked the emperor to deal with it strictly? He cried and condemned Ye Xi.

Ye Xi was calm and at ease, and seemed unaffected by his accusations. Seeing that her face was indifferent, the emperor was not afraid of the current scene, and understood that this matter was definitely not simple, and she was not the kind of person who liked to cause trouble.

The emperor appeased a few words, "Feng Shangshuling, get up!" What does the princess have to say? ”

Then he looked at Ye Xi, he really couldn't call out the aunt, so he called her princess, "Princess, tell me, what happened at that time?" The little emperor gave her a look and let her seize the opportunity.

Ye Xi's supple face had a smile in his eyes, "Back to the emperor, it was Miss Feng who provoked first, and I just taught her a lesson."

Miss Feng and a few of her companions came to the Qingfeng Pavilion, and it didn't matter if they didn't salute when they saw this princess, anyway, I didn't care about those false courtesies. But she actually said that this princess was a fallen princess who fell into the thieves, which was not false, but her tone was sarcastic, and her words implied that she fell into the den of thieves, her innocence was not there, and her reputation was not there, which this princess couldn't bear. ”

Feng Yin shook his head, "Impossible, the minister's daughter is knowledgeable, how can she be so rude-sighted and so reckless!" Please let the emperor know what Princess Mo said. ”

Ye Xi's face changed suddenly, her eyes flashed with irrepressible anger, and her expression was fierce, "Lord Feng, are you saying that Princess Ben is lying?" In that case, you can ask Miss Feng a few of her companions who were on the same road at that time, as well as Meng Yuan and Princess Ming.

By the way, she not only mocked Princess Ben, but also took Miss Meng and Princess Ming to sarcastically repeat, you can tell me, His Royal Highness King Ming knows, your daughter laughed at her princess, isn't this a slap in the face of His Royal Highness King Ming? What do you think he's going to do with you? I'd love to see it. "Someone deliberately didn't say Meng Yuan and Shen Yunmei just now, they are waiting here.

She looked at the familiar figure outside the door, sneered, and the show began.

Zhong Licong walked in and came to Shen Yunmei's face, regardless of her resistance, grabbed her hand, but his eyes were as plain as water, and he glanced at Feng Yin. There was not the slightest fluctuation of emotion in his eyes, but it gave people a sense of shocking oppression, which made Feng Yin, who had experienced more than 20 years of officialdom, feel a chill in his heart, and he didn't dare to look up at the other party's eyes in fear.

Zhong Licong looked at Ye Xi and smiled softly, "Sister Xiao Xi, tell this king, how she satirizes this king's princess, remember, you have to say it word for word!" ”

When the little emperor saw that his sixth emperor uncle was coming, he didn't say a word, just waited to watch the play. Dare to provoke his own six emperor uncles, that is if you want to live well.

Ye Xi repeated those words, in order to echo his little sister Xi, she also deliberately called him Brother Ming, "Miss Feng said, 'A foreign princess who can't be loved by her husband', isn't this just ridiculing Princess Ming for not being favored and not being able to get your love from Brother Ming?"

Tell me, isn't this a slap in the face of Brother Mingwang? Say that you are not considerate of your own princess, and that you are not good to your own princess? This makes the world know, how to talk about the righteous brother of King Ming, lightly say that you are unkind, and say that you ignore the peace covenant between Rongjiang and Chengguo, deliberately cause disputes between the two countries, and treat the princess of Chengguo slowly, and then the righteous brother of King Ming will become a sinner of the two countries through the ages! When she said this, she paused, and deliberately winked at King Ming, with a smug look, as if to say, look at me! He was absolutely frightened and begged for mercy.

"This pile, one by one, isn't Miss Feng trying to trap the righteous brother of King Ming in a ruthless and unrighteous situation, or Miss Feng is deliberately using herself to frame the Ming Palace? This framing of the Ming Palace, isn't it a deliberate provocation of the royal majesty, this crime is no matter how many generations of loyal ministers you are, you can't forgive it! You tell me? Lord Feng? She also deliberately looked at Lord Feng aggressively and asked for his opinion.

"Brother Ming Wangyi, tell me, does Miss Feng want to deliberately cause a war between the two countries, of course, with Miss Feng's heart, she doesn't have that kind of bold and reckless mind, it is estimated that someone deliberately instigated it!" When she said that someone, she deliberately accentuated her tone, and deliberately glanced at Lord Feng.

Her sharp words made it impossible to find fault with it. also made people give her a thumbs up, and sighed in her heart, her mouth can simply say black as white and white as black.

Zhong Licong simply said to her, admired to the ground, this little girl is not a scream, a blockbuster, her words can make the Feng family die without a place to be buried.

Feng Yin was frightened by her words, knelt in front of the emperor, and kept saying, "Your Majesty, the minister definitely has no such intention, and please ask the emperor to be clear, the minister has been loyal and good for generations, how can the princess be so slanderous?" He glanced at Ye Xi and questioned her.

Ye Xi glanced at her, and said sarcastically, "Cut, did I say it was you?" Are you not admitting yourself! Ye Xi thought indifferently in his heart, since you don't want me to be better, then I will destroy you.

No matter what Feng Yin said now, it was wrong, he knelt there and kowtowed, and pleaded sincerely in his tone, "Your Majesty, the ministers have no two hearts, I hope the emperor will see clearly!" ”

Zhong Licong's delicate face was indifferent, "Your Majesty, Lord Feng's daughter satirized the princess of this king, and deliberately framed the Ming Palace, provoked the royal family, the crime is extremely evil, please ask the emperor to deal with it strictly, if the emperor does not handle this matter strictly, this king would rather resign and go home, and never step into the court again." His words thundered, and seeing that her face was full of seriousness, it didn't seem to be joking, and besides, King Ming never joked.

If King Ming resigns and returns to his home at this time, then the border will be in chaos, and the court will be unstable, "Uncle Six Emperors, I still have a lot of things to rely on Uncle Six Emperors?" How can you say that you will resign and go home? Sixth Emperor Uncle rest assured, I will definitely give Uncle Huang a satisfactory answer. He persuaded the other party softly.

Ye Xi looked at him, sure enough, he was still powerful, as soon as these words came out, no matter what? Then Feng Qingshuang will definitely die. Ye Xi gave him a thumbs up, you are amazing, you are a cow! Zhong Licong gave her a look, and it was an expression of course.

The emperor had originally planned to help Ye Xi, but now this matter is better for him.

The emperor's angry face, "Lord Feng, your daughter is unforgivable, she dares to ridicule the princess of the dynasty and insult the princess of the dynasty, this is the biggest provocation to the imperial family, and it is also a challenge to the royal majesty." ”

"Someone! Passing on my will, Feng Qingshuang disregarded etiquette, acted willfully, framed the princess and Princess Ming, for the sake of today's banquet, he disposed of it separately, and three days later, he gave a glass of wine. ”

Then he looked at Feng Yin, "Lord Feng, if you don't teach you, your father's fault, from today onwards, go back and reflect on yourself!" If there is a next time, I don't care how many generations of you are loyal, I will ask all of you! ”

Next, Lord Feng left the imperial study in a gloomy manner, and there was still half an hour before the banquet, and they all went towards the Zhaoyun Palace.
