Chapter Seventy-One

"Luo'er, there is no need to be so polite," Chu Moxuan looked at Su Luo with burning eyes; "Luo'er, the dress you have on today is really beautiful."

Su Luo lowered his eyes a little shyly; "The third prince praised it falsely."

The purpose of today's flower viewing banquet is to announce his marriage to Su Luo, and Su Luo's mother Shang Qing has agreed to this marriage.

In the eyes of others, Chu Moxuan and Su Luo are a very good match.

Chu Yunxi held his chin and looked at Chu Moxuan and Su Luo: "Concubine Li Guifei's pomp today is really big. ”

Today's pomp and circumstance is indeed very large.

Su Wan saw her eldest brother Su Muchen in the crowd, and she waved at Su Muchen in the crowd: "Big brother! ”

Su Muchen heard Su Wan calling him, and he walked towards Su Wan.

Su Muchen saw that Chu Yunxi was also there, and saluted her: "See Her Royal Highness the Princess, see the Nine Emperor Princes, Nine, Nine Emperor Princesses." ”

Su Wan smiled and said, "Big brother, sit down quickly." ”

Su Muchen was a little hesitant.

Chu Yunxi smiled at him: "Young Master Su, sit down!" ”

Only then did Su Muchen sit next to Chu Mohan.

Chu Yunxi looked at Su Muchen, Su Muchen is Su Wan's own brother, the eldest young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, although he is a concubine, he is the only male in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Su Muchen studied outside when he was very young, and this was the first time he had participated in this kind of banquet.

Su Wan asked, "Big brother, why did you come to this kind of banquet?" ”

Su Wan could see that Su Muchen didn't like to participate in such a banquet.

"My mother asked me to come, and my mother said that I was old enough to get married, and I should attend more banquets like this."

Su Muchen is two years older than Su Wan, Su Wan is eighteen years old this year, and Su Muchen is twenty years old this year.

Twenty years old is still young in modern times, but in ancient times it was considered old, and in ancient times men were seventeen or eighteen, or even earlier.

Su Wan quipped with a smile; "Which lady does the eldest brother fall fond of?"

Su Muchen's face was not as thick as Su Wan's, and his fair face was dyed with a layer of pale pink.

"Third sister, you dare to make fun of me, the eldest brother."

Su Wan smiled playfully; "How dare you joke about you, big brother, I just want to know what kind of girl you like, big brother, what kind of girl you like, I want you to pay attention."

At this moment, the shrill voice of the eunuch was heard; "The Queen Mother has arrived."

Everyone stood up and saluted the queen; "See the Queen."

The queen wore a dark red, gold thread embroidered palace dress today, and wore a phoenix hairpin inlaid with large rubies and surrounded by more than a dozen emeralds on her head.

Under the sunlight, the phoenix hairpin shines brightly.

The queen walked to Concubine Li and greeted everyone; "Get up! Feel free to do so, everyone. ”

The queen looked at Concubine Li.

Today's Li Guifei has also been carefully dressed, but she loses a lot of momentum to the queen.

Li Guifei said with a smile; "Today, the queen admires her face and comes to participate in the flower viewing banquet held by the concubine."

Concubine Li Guifei invited the queen because she wanted to borrow the queen's mouth to set the marriage between Chu Moxuan and Su Luo.

The queen also knew Concubine Li's purpose.

Whether she comes or not, Concubine Li will also announce it.

Chu Moxuan and Su Luo walked side by side.

"See the queen, see the mother."

"See the queen's mother, see the concubine's mother." The two saluted the queen and Concubine Li.

Li Guifei said with a gentle smile; "Luo'er, come forward."

Su Luo stepped forward obediently.

Li Guifei stretched out her hand and looked at Su Luo.

Su Luo was stunned and also stretched out his hand.

Li Guifei took Su Luo's hand; "This palace knows that you and Xuan'er are in love, and Xuan'er often mentions Luo'er, you are gentle and generous."

Concubine Li Guifei glanced at Chu Moxuan and asked; "Luo'er, you like Xuan'er."

Su Luoqiao's face flushed, lowered her eyes slightly, and was silent.

Chu Moxuan said; "Luo'er, I have already told my mother that I like you and want to marry you as my princess."

This was the first time Chu Moxuan had said such things to her, Su Luo's face turned even redder, and she was also happy in her heart, she had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Su Wan raised her eyes and looked at Chu Moxuan.

Chu Moxuan's eyes were full of affection when he looked at her.

Everyone's eyes fell on the number.

After a long time, Su Luo nodded shyly.

Seeing Su Luo nodded, the corners of Li Guifei's mouth hooked, her eyes looked at Chu Moxuan, and Chu Moxuan also looked at her, the two looked at each other, and soon the two quickly withdrew their gazes.

The smile on Concubine Li's face deepened, and she looked at the queen.

"The concubine also asked the queen to marry the two children."

The queen didn't say anything, and said to the two with a smile; "Since the two of you are in love, this palace will give you two a marriage." The queen looked at Concubine Li; "As for this wedding date, it's up to you to decide your sister!"

Concubine Li answered yes, her eyes fell on Su Luo and Chu Moxuan; "Don't thank you yet."

The two of them were busy with Empress Xie An.

"Alright, let's go play." Li Guifei said.

The young ladies and sons stepped forward to congratulate, and those young ladies encouraged Su Luo to curry favor with her, she was the future third princess, and she could become the queen of this Northern Chu.

Seeing that there was nothing to do with herself, the queen was about to leave.

Before she could speak, Concubine Li said with a smile; "Queen Mother, today's flower-viewing banquet and concubines have also prepared an aftershow, and the Queen Mother can't go."

The queen frowned; "What kind of after-show has my sister prepared?"

Concubine Li glanced at the palace maid beside her.

The palace maid hurriedly turned around and left.

Li Guifei sold Guan Zidao; "Queen Mother, you'll find out in a moment."

Li Guifei picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

After a while, the palace maid came back and said to Concubine Li; "Concubine Niangniang, everything is ready, do you want to bring it now?"

The palace maid asked.

"Bring it up."

I saw a little eunuch coming over with a tray, and the things on the tray were covered by a red cloth, and I couldn't see what was under the red cloth.

At this time, the imperial garden suddenly quieted down, and everyone's eyes looked at the little eunuch, the tray in his hand, and they were all curious about what was on the tray.

"Queen Mother, you look at the ...... on the tray"

The little eunuch took the red cloth away.

The Queen's eyes fell on the tray, and her pupils shrank when she saw what was on the tray.

When everyone saw the things on the tray, they couldn't help but be surprised.

Someone was surprised; "It's the first time I've seen such a large piece of bloodstone."

"Bloodstone is rare, I didn't expect it to be such a big piece." The surrounding discussion came into Li Guifei's ears, and the corners of Li Guifei's mouth hooked up a smug smile.

"Queen Mother, what do you think of this bloodstone?"

From the expression on the queen's face, Concubine Li knew that the queen liked this bloodstone very much.

This bloodstone was something she could barely guess.

"This piece of bloodstone is of the highest grade, and it is estimated that there will be no such a large piece of bloodstone again."

"This bloodstone was specially prepared by me for this flower-viewing feast."

Only listen to Li Guifei raise her voice; "Today I have prepared this high-grade bloodstone as a lottery head, this palace has three questions today, if these three topics can get the first place, this bloodstone will be his."

Hearing this, everyone was a little eager to try.

"These three questions are archery, calligraphy, and dance." Concubine Li's gaze swept over everyone; "I hope you can do it in pairs."

In pairs?

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, it's hard to find these three things, archery is generally a man, dance is generally a woman, as for this calligraphy, men and women borrow.

Li Guifei coughed lightly and said slowly; "Two people form a team, and the teammates are gender-neutral."

Su Wan propped her chin and looked at Concubine Li with interest.

How does she feel like a large-scale blind date scene.

"Alright, let's start looking for your teammates."

As soon as Li Guifei's words fell, everyone began to look for their teammates.

Su Wan was not interested in this kind of thing, she sat on the chair and watched as those men and women quickly formed a team, most of them were a combination of a man and a woman.

Chu Yunxi was very interested, she pulled Su Wan's sleeve and said; "Sister-in-law, do you want the two of us to form a team?"

Su Wan looked at her; "You're interested in that jackpot."

Chu Yunxi shook his head; "In the eyes of others, that bloodstone may be worth a fortune, but in my eyes that bloodstone is worthless."

Chu Yunxi pointed to those who had already formed a team.

"There are a lot of them, so that I can form a team with my favorite Miss Childe, not for the sake of the lottery, and I, naturally, just think it's fun."

Su Wan thought for a moment and said; "I don't have a problem with this dance, but this calligraphy and archery are ......."

The words she writes are the same as those of the dog @ crawl, in ancient times, she used a brush to write, and she didn't know what words she wrote with a brush.

Chu Yunxi said confidently; "Isn't there still me, compared to archery, I haven't lost yet."

"What about calligraphy?" Su Wan looked at her and asked.

The corners of Chu Yunxi's mouth twitched, she didn't like to practice calligraphy since she was a child, and the one she wrote was the same as a ghost drawing talisman.

Chu Yunxi shrugged his shoulders and said with an indifferent expression; "We're not going for the lottery, it doesn't matter if we can't do calligraphy."

"Since you want to participate, you naturally have to take the first place." Chu Mohan smirked.

Su Wan and Chu Yunxi looked at him, and Chu Yunxi spoke first; "Brother Jiu, haven't you heard that the result of the game is not important, what matters is the process."

Chu Mohan glanced at her; "It's all an excuse, it's an excuse you can't win, it's an excuse for yourself."

Chu Yunxi twisted her eyebrows, she was a little unconvinced; "Brother Jiu, how do you know that I can't win?"

Chu Mohan turned his head to the side and said stupidly; "I think the third brother likes to get the lottery the most."

Chu Moxuan's partner is naturally Su Luo.

Su Luo is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is also good at dancing, and Chu Moxuan is also very good at riding and shooting, and the combination of the two is the most promising to get this jackpot.

Su Wan spoke; "Then we'll take the jackpot and show you."

Chu Yunxi looked at Su Wan and pulled Su Wan's sleeve; "Ninth sister-in-law, we can't win against the third brother, the ninth brother is stupid, you must not take what he says seriously."
