Chapter 42: Family Affection

The feast had been set up in the hall, and the queen led me in the direction of the throne, and the woman behind me followed slowly.

When the king was seated on the throne, the queen took me to the seat on the right side and whispered, "Sit here first, and when the feast is over, the queen mother will talk to you well." I nodded and sat down, and without speaking, she saw that I was seated, and turned to the king.

The woman also sat down on the left side of the throne, and now it seems that she is also a princess, but the way she looks at me, there is no sisterhood at all.

The ministers all found their seats according to their ranks, and Lu Wen was also arranged in the front seats, I don't know where the two girls Sang Ma and Bai Zhi were taken, but after all, they are my personal maids, and I guess I won't treat them badly.

I lowered my head and looked at the reflection in the wine glass, these tableware are simple and exquisite, all of them are mostly painted pottery, blue pink peach blossom plate, moon milk cup, warbler yellow square bowl, every tableware is like a work of art, even the chopsticks are also the appearance of an indigo sea lotus.

The southern country loves to use metal utensils, which look gorgeous and luxurious, but here, it is mainly elegant, and the difference between the habits of the north and the south can also be seen from these details.

"Today, Princess Ning'an returns, I want to have a good time with the Zhongqing family, and wash the dust for my Ning'an, hahaha......" The king stood up with a wine glass, and when he said this, he looked at me deeply, and his eyes fluttered too fast, so that people didn't have time to understand the meaning.

The courtiers below the high position all knelt on one knee with their wine glasses and shouted, "Congratulations to the king on the reunion with the princess's father and daughter." ”

Although it was not as lively as when I got married six years ago, it shook my heart. They, did they really welcome me back, or did they celebrate that this country could be protected by the South?

After everyone got up and sat down, Lu Wen left his seat, walked to the middle of the hall, made an envoy salute, and said, "Lu Wen, the envoy of the southern country, see the continent lord." Weichen came up to negotiate with Liangzhou on behalf of the emperor of the southern kingdom. ”

As soon as Lu Wen's words fell, the hall that was originally slightly noisy instantly became silent, leaving only the sound of undulating breathing.

"Oh? What did the Southern Emperor say. The king replied very calmly, his voice was not threatening and angry, one hand held the wine glass in his hand, but his eyes did not look at Lu Wen.

"My emperor knows that the country of Liangzhou has been rich in recent years, and the people have also lived and worked in peace and contentment, and often praised the lord of Liangzhou as a model of Mingjun." After Lu Wen said this, he paused, and the courtiers on both sides looked at him intently, with a proud smile on their faces, "It's just that if Liangzhou wants to ally with the Jin Kingdom, it will undoubtedly dig his own grave." As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed, and Lu Wen was not afraid to answer, "My southern country is strong and strong, and the treasury is full, and it is not difficult to annex the Jin country, and the lord of Wangzhou weighs it carefully." Without waiting for everyone's reaction, he walked straight to his seat and drank himself.

I watched Wang Shang's originally smiling eyes become gloomy, but the smile at the corner of his mouth did not disappear, the joints of the wine glass were faintly forced, and the fragile cup made a struggle sound that was about to break, but everything came to an abrupt end here, and he said, "Of course, Liangzhou and Nanguo are in-laws. Ning An has already married Nanguo, and this king will not be so confused. "The two countries will not fight each other, not to mention that there is no military conflict between Liangzhou and Nanguo, Lu Wen is naturally fearless, so he will be so ashamed.

I don't know how I finished that meal, and my smiling face began to stiffen, and I didn't dare to look at the so-called parents on the throne anymore, and I didn't know how to vent the disappointment in my heart.

In-laws, to them, I am just a bargaining chip to seek help from the South, a chess piece, what am I hoping for? Is it affectionate? Will there still be such a thing in the royal family? I see how the queen of the southern kingdom treats her sister, how Qi Hao treats Ziqing, and how Huang Fuchen treats the woman she loves and her son, I see them all in my eyes, and now I am so stupid that I hope that they still have a trace of family affection for me.

I was still depressed when I was taken back to the resting dormitory by the palace maids, and I didn't listen to what they said, but I was numb, and I only felt so tired at the moment, and I was tormented by walking for more than two months, and it was nothing more than this when I arrived at the place where I had been thinking for six years.

"Master, you're back." Sang Ma came up from afar, took my hand, and exclaimed, "Why are your hands so cold?" ”

I wanted to smile at her and say it was okay, but my face was so stiff that I couldn't squeeze out any expression, and I could guess that my smile must be worse than crying at the moment. Sang Ma pulled me into the hall, sat down with a servant, poured me a cup of tea and handed it to warm my hands, and asked cautiously, "Master, what's wrong?" ”

"I ......" looked at her anxiously, and was a little moved in her heart, now, the people who are really good to me are just Sangma and them, there are very few, if I am not a princess, I am afraid that I will be left alone, think about my life is really a failure." Let's go, okay, let's get out of here. ”

"Huh? Walk? Does the master want to go back to the southern country? Sang Ma looked at me with some surprise, "Won't the master reunite with his family for a few days?" ”

"No, no, no, no, not to go back to the South. It's good to go anywhere. I looked at her, and my tears fell down in big gulps. Now I just want to get out of here quickly, hurry, hurry, I can't stay in this depressing home for a moment.

Sang Ma hurriedly wiped it for me with a handkerchief, and there was some panic in his tone, "Master, what's wrong with you, but you have been wronged?" If we don't go back to the south, where will we go? ”

"I don't know, I really don't know......" There was a mess in his mind, he just wanted to escape, he had a splitting headache, he couldn't hold it anymore and fainted, and the only sound he could hear was Sang Ma shouting a few times about the master.
