Xia Zimo's birthday banquet was very important, and the ministers gathered that night to celebrate the emperor's birthday.

"Your Majesty has arrived at ......" the eunuch's Yali voice sounded, shocking the ministers.

Before that, they all thought that Xia Zimo would not come. Because he hasn't been out of the Qilong Palace for a year, does coming out at this time mean that he has to return to the court?

Although shocked, etiquette still has to be there, the ministers and their families knelt down to welcome Xia Zimo's arrival, and everyone shouted: "Ministers welcome the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Xia Zimo walked slowly amid the shouts of everyone, his pace was unhurried, and there was still no expression on his face, giving people a feeling of alienation and inaccessibility.

After walking to the dragon chair and sitting down, Xia Zimo said, "Zhongqing is flat."

"Your Majesty."

Everyone got up after shouting in unison, and naturally there were also Chen Wang and Xia Yixue. When he bowed his head and saluted, he couldn't see King Chen's eyes clearly, but now when he raised his head, he saw his cruel eyes. It's obviously such a character, but he has to pretend to be kind.

On the other hand, Xia Yixue's eyes were very calm. Her eyes are like a pool of water, clear and free of impurities, with simplicity and aura. Her eyes were fixed on Xia Zimo. I saw him wearing a black dragon robe, handsome and temperamental. After all, this is the person she will always be with in the future, so she can't help but take a few more looks.

Xia Yixue is wearing a pale pink dress today, with a layer of transparent gauze on the outside, which sets off the pale pink dress with more texture. The hem of the skirt is embroidered with a white pattern, which is just right as an embellishment. Such a small flower will not dominate the crowd. It is also more agile. Although she wears a veil, her temperament is still not inferior to that of any woman in the main hall.

Xia Zimo seemed to notice Xia Yixue's gaze, glanced at her, his gaze briefly stayed on the veil Xia Yixue was carrying, and quickly moved away.

"Your Majesty has an order, the banquet begins, and music is played~" Jin Fu often stands by Xia Zimo's side, and he also comes to pass on the emperor's orders.

After Kim Bok's voice fell, the musicians of the Imperial Music Workshop began to play music, and the maids began to dance. The palace maids brought all kinds of imperial dishes to the ministers, and a happy face began.

After a long time, the people present were almost full, and the interest in watching the singing and dancing also faded. King Chen took the opportunity to recommend to Xia Zimo: "Your Majesty, Weichen's adopted daughter Yixue, I heard about Your Majesty's birthday, and specially prepared a dance for Your Majesty, I don't know if Your Majesty is interested in watching."

Xia Zimo just coped with it on this occasion, and he didn't talk to people much, not to mention that he didn't want to deal with King Chen, so he didn't speak.

In this way, the scene fell into embarrassment, and Jiang Guifei, who was still sitting next to Xia Zimo, said with a smile in order to relieve the embarrassment: "Since it is specially prepared for the emperor, let's jump and take a look." It just so happens that Your Majesty has been in a little bit of interest lately, so it's good to take a look. ”

It was Xia Yixue who answered Jiang Guifei, she stood up and saluted and said, "Xie Guifei Niangniang, the courtier will go down to prepare first."

As soon as her voice came out, everyone present felt familiar. Xia Zimo, who didn't think much of her, quickly set her eyes on Xia Yixue. At this time, Xia Yixue had already retreated from the side of the palace.

Xia Zimo looked at the back of her leaving, and the more she looked, the more familiar she became. Although he hadn't seen Qiu Luoxue for a year, he hadn't heard her speak for a year. But he still vividly remembered her look, her voice, her back, and every skin on her body.

Jiang Guifei was also very surprised, the voices of the two were so similar, like she mistakenly thought that Qiu Luoxue was back. But that's impossible. She turned her head to look at Xia Zimo, and from Xia Zimo's shocked expression, she knew that Xia Zimo also felt like it.

It would be nice if that person really came back, Xia Zimo wouldn't be as miserable as he is now. Jiang Guifei now knew that she could not have a place in Xia Zimo's heart. That arrogant man in Great Qin had already given his heart to another woman.

At first, she was unwilling and wanted to earn with her. But now she understands that no matter how much she earns, it's useless. So she didn't want to earn it, she just hoped that Xia Zimo would be well.

Xia Yixue changed into a white water-sleeved long skirt, the upper body was made of gauze, and her figure loomed. The cuffs and the hem of the skirt are embroidered with ink-colored bamboo, and this ink style is very distinctive in the pile of colorful palace maids who wear them.

The golden light hit Xia Yixue's body, illuminating her cold white skin into a warm white. The skin is white, and then wearing a white dress makes it even more complex.

The music began, and Xia Yixue began her dance. During this process, Xia Zimo kept staring at her. Because her voice and posture are very similar to Qiu Luoxue, Xia Zimo also has some unrealistic thoughts in her heart. Could it be that there is such a possibility that his beloved did not die.

Xia Yixue's dance was still going on, and it could be seen that she was very skilled in this dance, and after a simple jump, she flipped her long water sleeves. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the white veil on her face fell off.

Xia Zimo saw her face and stood up from the dragon chair in shock. What a surprise it was, she looked the same as Qiu Luoxue. Also shocked were Xia Ziyan, Jiang Guifei and a group of ministers.

The veil on her face fell off, and Xia Yixue seemed to be a little panicked, causing her dance steps to be disordered, and she accidentally slipped and fell. Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, Xia Zimo flew to her side and caught her who was about to fall.

Xia Yixue was stunned and grabbed Xia Zimo's arm tightly. The two of them were very close, and their breathing was a little unsteady. They slowly fell to the ground, but Xia Zimo still didn't let go of her, but hugged her tighter.

When Chen Wang saw this play, he almost wanted to applaud, the preliminary preparations were in place, and the next scene could only be performed by Xia Yixue herself. Looking at Xia Zimo's stupid eyes, King Chen couldn't help but show a treacherous smile.

And his smile happened to fall in Xia Ziyan's eyes. He looked at Xia Yixue, who looked like Qiu Luoxue, and frowned. The conspiracy is getting closer, how is he going to parry?

It is unknown how Xia Ziyan will parry, but what can be known is that Xia Zimo can no longer parry. Under the temptation of Xia Yixue's face, he couldn't help but gently caress her face with his hand. What a real feeling, as if she had really returned.

Xia Zimo's black dragon robe and Xia Yixue's white dress matched like that, Xia Zimo hugged Xia Yixue, Xia Yixue's dress mopped the floor, and the warm light shone down, imprinting Xia Yixue's appearance in Xia Zimo's eyes. She vaguely saw that Xia Zimo's eyes were filled with tears.

"Your Majesty......" Xia Yixue shouted in a low voice, keeping such a distance from Xia Zimo made her a little shy, and her face flushed.

"You're back, I miss you so much." Xia Zimo looked at Xia Yixue and said, when he saw her appearance, Xia Zimo had already fallen. More precisely, when he didn't see her appearance, Xia Zimo was also destined to fall.

……

Xia Yixue's and Qiu Luoxue's same faces gave the ministers hope; Xia Zimo's performance at the banquet strengthened their minds. So without King Chen's push, the ministers spontaneously proposed that Xia Zimo marry Xia Yixue.

So on the morning of the next day, someone proposed. However, now Xia Zimo is still not in the court, and the national affairs are still presided over by Xia Ziyan. He stood on the same position that Qiu Luoxue once stood, discussing state affairs with his ministers.

"Lord Wang, that woman named Xia Yixue looks exactly the same as Prime Minister Qiu, so it's better to let Your Majesty marry her as the queen. In this way, His Majesty will not be immersed in the memories of the past, and will return to the court. Someone suggested.

"Even if that woman looks like Prime Minister Qiu, it's not her after all, she's just a replacement for King Chen." Xia Ziyan said, it was obvious from his tone that he was unwilling to let Xia Yixue be the queen.

"After all, Prime Minister Qiu has passed away, and it is better to have a replacement than nothing." Someone else said.

Now both those in King Chen's camp and those who are not in King Chen's camp hope that Xia Yixue can replace Qiu Luoxue. Xia Ziyan was really alone.

"The emperor doesn't need to live on a substitute." Xia Ziyan said.

Soon someone pointed the finger at Xia Ziyan and accused: "What does the prince mean by this? Don't you want to watch the emperor return to the court? Or have you been dealing with state affairs for a long time now and have forgotten your identity? ”

"You ......" was insulted like this, Xia Ziyan was very angry.

"Presumptuous."

Suddenly, a majestic voice came, and Xia Zimo walked in from the apse. He seems to have returned to his old glory.

"See Your Majesty." Everyone saw Xia Zimo kneeling and saluting.

"Ziyan has been working hard for the state for a year, and you slandered him so much!" Xia Zimo looked coldly at the minister who had just spoken.

"That's not what I mean, it's just ......," explained the man who had just spoken.

Xia Zimo didn't listen to his explanation at all, and said: "You slandered the prince above the court, and you have been thinking about it in the mansion for three months."

"Also, Bong Chang Shi." Xia Zimo said again.

"The minister is here." Bong Changshi replied.

"Marriage Election Period." Xia Zimo said.

"Brother Huang, don't make a hasty decision on the major matter of marriage, please think twice." Xia Ziyan persuaded.

"I have made up my mind, so I don't need to persuade it." Xia Zimo said firmly, looked at Xia Ziyan again and said, "You have worked hard in the past year, and I will return to the court from tomorrow, so you don't have to come to the court."

His words showed that he had to marry Xia Yixue. Xia Ziyan looked at him, his eyes full of worry. Even if you want to fall into someone else's trap, why jump into it so quickly? Could it be that his royal brother is really out of his mind?

Seeing his sweetheart again, Xia Zimo's sanity has completely disappeared. This time he's going to keep her by his side, and anyone who hurts her, whoever it is, will have to pay.
