Ouyang Zhen smiled and said: "I want to help you, the first is that you cast my eyes, and second, I just hope that you and I will support each other in the palace." What does my sister think? ”

Li Yinghong looked at her carefully when she heard this, and suddenly smiled: "Cheng, I believe in my sister, but I still think that my sister doesn't have to help me, the emperor ......" She said and sighed: "The emperor is pretending to be my sister alone, I can see it." He came to me, but he didn't touch me much, and one of the three sentences he spoke was how about the concubine, and the emperor asked me a few days ago if I knew what color my sister liked. ”

Her delicate face seemed to be covered with a shadow, and then she shook her head and laughed at herself: "No wonder, any man like my sister is tempted to see such a character." Losing my sister, I, Li Yinghong, don't feel anything shameful. ”

She smiled at Ouyang Zhen: "Sister, don't worry, I, Li Yinghong, will do what I say, and I will definitely help you." I also hope that my sister will take care of my sister more. ”

Ouyang Zhen listened to the mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Chu Huotian's affection for her, how could she not see it? It's just that the so-called emperor's favor has always been only pet and no true love, and she only sees through half of his heart, and the other half, but she can't understand it.

And her own heart, I don't know how many layers are wrapped, and if the layers are peeled off, I don't know if it's the original appearance.

He and her thoughts are too complicated, he looks at her, and she looks at him, they are just looking at flowers in the fog and the moon in the water.

She was careful when they got along, and he was inquisitive. Although she licks beauty gently on the surface, only she knows that she doesn't really give her heart to him.

Ouyang Zhen looked at the stubborn but dashing Li Yinghong in front of her, she helped her, but she was just making a solid ally in the isolated and helpless harem, in fact, she didn't completely tell her that the most important thing she Ouyang Zhen valued was the military power behind her father, and Li Yinghong would not just be the last of the nine concubines in the end.

The New Year of Chu Ning and the second year passed day by day, and Chu Huotian was busy entertaining the important ministers, and met with the envoys of Qin and Liang.

Chu Dading just now, the domestic situation is not very peaceful, and the people of China are also deeply disgusted by the "Chu thief" from the north, uprisings occur from time to time, although Chu Huotian is militarily iron-blooded, but politically he adopts a gentle rule, and he is more appeased to China. Under this environment, it is natural to have more friendship with Qin and Liang.

Therefore, Chu Huotian set up a grand banquet, feasted with the envoys sent by Qin and Liang, and rewarded many gold and silver beauties. Ouyang Zhen was a concubine of the fifth grade, so he had to participate with the queen a few times.

The queen knew that Chu Huotian liked her, so she specially moved her position to the side of the dragon chair. Ouyang Zhen was originally a person who didn't want to be public, so he really felt uncomfortable.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Ouyang Zhen received the queen's order to go with her to a banquet for a team of envoys sent by Qin Guoxin, but the intention specifically pointed out that she wanted to dress up to attend, and Ouyang Zhen was embarrassed.

Seeing that she was embarrassed, the mother who passed the message smiled and said: "Rou Concubine Niangniang doesn't have to feel difficult, the queen asked the slaves and maids to bring a new dress, please try it to see if it fits." ”

As he spoke, he asked the palace maid behind him to offer it, only to see the red silk lifted, a luxurious palace skirt shook open, and the pearls in the room were dazzling.

The palace skirt is blue and blue, embroidered with a hundred birds singing spring, each bird is outlined with royal blue silk thread, and the feathers are decorated with real bird feathers, as if it is real, and the eyes of the birds are decorated with black gems, looking from a distance, one by one is vivid. The corners of the palace skirt are rolled with silver wires, which is very dazzling.

Everyone in the room was stunned, Ouyang Zhen didn't know what the queen meant, so he had to thank him: "Please go back and thank the queen for the concubine." ”

Saying that, he asked Wan Hui to stuff some silver for them, and then sent them out with great gratitude.

Ouyang Zhen looked at the dress, and only felt that it was a hot potato. Wan Hui came in and said, "Niang Niang, don't you try it?" Ouyang Zhen smiled bitterly: "Now I don't know what the queen is going to sing." ”

Wan Hui sighed: "Even if you know, you can't do it, so you have to wear this to the banquet, maybe the queen will see the beauty of the mother, so she will ask the mother to show her eyes." ”

Ouyang Zhen sighed lightly, he always had to come, so he had to wear it and put on makeup.

She combed Chu Huotian's favorite flowing cloud bun on her hair, and the layers of black hair were curled up little by little, flowing and flowing like flowing clouds. She inserted three golden hairpins inlaid with cat's eye green in the back of her hair from top to bottom, spread out in a fan shape, and two hairpins on each side of the golden step of the swallow beads, and used a lotus jade jade caster in front of her forehead to tie the bangs back, revealing a smooth forehead. Between the eyebrows is pasted a plum blossom golden yellow.

On top of the bun, pearls and silver flowers were inserted one by one according to the layers. The face was evenly matched with just the right amount of light makeup, and the whole makeup was made, Wan Hui also praised: "Niangniang is beautiful and natural, and her appearance is really like a celestial." ”

Ouyang Zhen looked at himself in the mirror, he hadn't dressed himself like this for a long time, and if the queen saw it, she would regret it. Her lips were lightly raised, and a light smile appeared on her face, since she wanted her to confirm the reputation of Chu Huotian's "favorite concubine", then come on.

When he arrived at the "Dekun Palace", Ouyang Zhen arrived at just the right time, and the envoys inside had arrived. When the chamberlain saw her arrival, he sang in a long voice: "Concubine Rou Niangniang has arrived-"

Ouyang Zhen walked in with a smile, she raised her head and helped Dexuan, and gently moved the lotus step under her feet, every step was like a ruler, not in a hurry or slowly, and walked towards the two sitting in front of her step by step.

The bright and brilliant is Chu Huotian, and the red phoenix dress sandwiched in the golden yellow is the queen Zhao. Her smile was as shallow as water, and ethereal as a trance, which was incomprehensible. As she walked by, she heard a few whispers and gasps, listening to her smile more and more charmingly.

Walking up to Chu Huotian, she knelt down respectfully and said, "The concubine respectfully invites the emperor to live long live, and the queen mother is a thousand years old!" After she finished speaking, she raised her head and smiled gently, and clearly saw a strange look flashing in the queen's eyes. Chu Huotian's face was also moved, and he said after a while: "Concubine Ai, please get up, come here, sit down!" ”

Then someone from the palace moved to the case and leaned on Chu Huotian's lower right head.

Ouyang Zhen sat down calmly, her beautiful eyes turned, swept over the people below, and after sweeping to a familiar figure, her smiling face couldn't help but change color a little.

The man seemed to see her too, and pouted in some surprise. Ouyang Zhen stiffly looked away, it turned out that he was from the Qin State.

Chu Huotian saw Ouyang Zhen bowing his head and was silent, and asked, "Does Concubine Ai feel that the dishes are unappetizing?" Ouyang Zhen hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, the concubine thinks it's very good." ”
