Chapter 168 begins
Everyone was talking energetically, and the slender voice of the eunuch came from outside the hall, "Concubine Xian has arrived!"
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone knelt down, including Chen Xiaoxiao.
Wang Decai reminded Chen Xiaoxiao in a whisper, "Concubine Xian is the mother concubine of King An and His Royal Highness the Seventh. ”
Chen Xiaoxiao's heart tightened, and her legs kneeling on the ground trembled a little.
Wang Decai saw her like this, and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, Concubine Xian is very good, and she won't embarrass you." ”
The two of them muttered very little, and were overshadowed by the sounds of greetings around them.
Chen Xiaoxiao only felt that no one was talking around her, she turned around secretly, and felt that there was a shadow in front of her covering her.
She looked up and saw a spineless woman staring at her, dressed in a gorgeous palace robe, and when she looked around, only the woman was standing.
Wang Decai reminded in a low voice, "This is Xian Guifei, call her mother concubine quickly." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao was taken aback, "I've seen my mother." ”
Xian Guifei carefully looked at Chen Xiaoxiao, and her slender and white hand stretched out towards Chen Xiaoxiao, wanting to help Chen Xiaoxiao up, "My son got up, are you tired all the way?" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao was a little stunned, and stood up with Concubine Xian in a daze.
When the nobles around looked around, the handkerchiefs in their hands were about to be crumpled.
The ladies of each family thought about it in their hearts, and secretly planned in their hearts, but they couldn't offend this Concubine Chen, and they could be treated like this by Concubine Xian.
After Concubine Xian got up with Chen Xiaoxiao, her eyes fell on everyone, and her red lips lightly opened, "Let's all get up." ”
Everyone responded, "Thank you, Concubine Xian." ”
There was an uproar, and it was the sound of the jade ornaments on everyone's waists.
Concubine Xian took Chen Xiaoxiao's hand and asked softly, "Are you tired?" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded, and replied mechanically, "I'm not tired." ”
While the two were talking, Concubine Xian took Chen Xiaoxiao to her place and ordered someone to prepare a place next to her.
Wang Decai and Bai Zhi followed behind them.
As soon as Concubine Xian moved, the palace maid behind her held her skirt.
"You can just sit here, and tell this palace about some of the things that happened at the border."
Where did Chen Xiaoxiao dare to come like this, she refused, "Mother, just sit in the back of the concubine." ”
Concubine Xian glanced at Chen Xiaoxiao's position and chuckled, "Okay, this palace won't force you, but after the banquet is over, you and Sheng Er will stay in the palace to accompany the palace." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao didn't know if she could agree, Concubine Xian's request, she should agree to it because of reason, but she didn't know if she could do the rules in the palace, so she had to say, "The concubines don't dare to call the shots, they all listen to the concubine." ”
Concubine Xian patted her hand and said kindly, "Okay, it's decided, when Sheng'er comes, Bengong will tell him himself." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao: "Yes. ”
Seeing that Chen Xiaoxiao was so well-behaved, Concubine Xian thought to herself, she is really an honest person, and she doesn't know how Sheng Er found it, it is much better than that Liu family.
She sighed, "Go and sit there, there is a concubine, don't be afraid." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that she was confident, "The concubine obeys the order!"
"Go ahead."
Chen Xiaoxiao's reaction made Concubine Xian smile happily, and there was no trace of time on her face.
After Chen Xiaoxiao said goodbye to Concubine Xian, she walked to her place.
The ministers have now come in almost as well, and then the princes have come in, and when they come in, they salute again.
At this time, the voice of the eunuch sounded outside the hall again, "The Queen Mother, the emperor has arrived!"
Chen Xiaoxiao knelt down with everyone and shouted, "The Queen Mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, long live the emperor, long live, long live!"
The Queen Mother and the Emperor came in from outside the palace, and after the emperor sat in the first place, he said to everyone, "All Aiqing is flat." ”
And the people arose, and sat down.
Chen Xiaoxiao sat beside King An and occasionally served vegetables for Murong.
At the beginning of the banquet, the first thing to do was singing and dancing, and the dancing girls in the palace danced beautifully.
Everything was peaceful, and everyone was immersed in it.
The dancing girl is over, and everyone is still unsatisfied.
Murong Sheng poured himself a glass of wine and was about to drink it, but found Chen Xiaoxiao staring at his wine glass in a daze, he shook it in front of Chen Xiaoxiao and asked, "Want to drink?" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao was awakened and hurriedly shook her head, "The concubine doesn't want to drink." ”
Murong Sheng teased her, "If you don't want to drink, you have to drink." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao's eyebrows furrowed, and she said uncomfortably, "The concubine doesn't want to drink." ”
Murong Sheng said, "Here, you can do it yourself." ”
The two were whispering, one had to ask her to drink, the other refused to drink, and neither wanted to compromise.
In the public, there are always a few pairs of eyes that can't be idle, just like that Jiaojiao.
Seeing that Murong Sheng and Chen Xiaoxiao were so close, she was jealous in her heart, and she almost broke the veil.
Her chest rose and fell, constantly hinting to herself that I was just trying to give this side concubine a dismount for Sister Liu, definitely not for myself.
Concubine Chen, you can admit it, don't touch my hands in the future.
Doing a good job of self-hypnosis, Xu Jiaojiao suddenly sighed at everyone, "Where's my jade pendant?" Why is it gone? ”
As she shouted, as if it was a code, many nobles present also spoke out, "My hairpin is gone." ”
"And my jade pendant, my jade pendant is also gone!"
"What's going on?"
One after another, the banquet suddenly became noisy.
The eunuch behind the emperor immediately spoke, "Silence, silence." ”
The crowd fell silent and hurriedly knelt down.
With a cold face, the emperor looked around at the nobles who shouted the loudest, and said coldly, "What's the matter?" ”
The ministers panicked, and hurriedly asked their wives to pull them to kneel, "Back to the emperor, it's okay, it's just that I lost a gadget, it's okay." ”
Xu Jiaojiao held a handkerchief at this time and pretended to cry, "Your Majesty, the courtier's jade pendant is gone." ”
When Wang Decai heard this, he thought to himself, isn't this jade pendant on Concubine Chen?
This Xu Jiaojiao did it deliberately, what should I do, it's all because of his carelessness.
Chen Xiaoxiao had just been poured wine by Murong Sheng at this time, and when she heard Xu Jiaojiao say this, she opened her eyes a little weakly.
The emperor rubbed his brow and asked, "But you lost it?" ”
Xu Jiaojiao knelt on the ground, her back was straight, and her hand pointed directly to Chen Xiaoxiao, "It can't be lost, the courtiers have only had close contact with Concubine Chen before, Concubine Chen, you can take it and take a look, quickly return it to the courtier." ”
Xu Jiaojiao's words directly made the emperor's face darken, what does she mean, this is a direct point to King An's side concubine and stealing her jade pendant?
Everyone was beating drums in their hearts, and they all looked at Chen Xiaoxiao, with a suspicious look in their eyes, and that vision was self-evident, it was affirmation.
Chen Xiaoxiao swallowed her saliva, her face was innocent, it was hers, but ......
Can you find it?
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoxiao calmed down.
Murong Sheng glanced at Xu Jiaojiao coldly, disapproving.
