Chapter 4: The Court Feast

Since being innocently reprimanded by Leng Yanxi, the little good feeling she had for this ancient husband has disappeared, and she feels aggrieved. Faced with this strange environment, unfamiliar identity and unfamiliar relatives, she has no other way, she is already trying to play Su Yirong well, so in order not to affect others, she chose to marry King Rui.

But King Rui didn't seem to like her, and always treated her as air, as long as he didn't touch her, he just followed her wishes. However, he scolded her for no reason, without mercy, and the whole thing spread throughout the Rui Wangfu in a blink of an eye.

Su Xiaosu suddenly felt that he couldn't hold his face, and decided to do something to "pay back" to him.

For a few days in a row, Su Xiaosu made a fuss in the house. Previously, he lit all the flowers in Leng Yanxi's yard, and bought cats and dogs from the street and threw them in his yard......

Even if she was so troublesome, Leng Yanxi was not angry at all, and she was left to make trouble. Su Xiaosu was a little puzzled, didn't he hate her? Not even angry at all?

Su Xiaosu is glad that she is not the kind of woman who only knows fantasies all day long, otherwise, she is afraid that she will think that he is conniving at her.

Leng Yanxi's refusal to accept made Su Xiaosu feel a sense of frustration. After thinking about it, she decided to go for the yard. Thinking back to Leng Yanxi's appearance that day, her intuition told him that the courtyard must have something to do with some woman. And Su Xiaosu even knocked on the side from the maid's mouth to confirm this idea.

In the early morning, the wind blows and the clouds disperse, and the sky takes on a clear blue color.

The sun shines through the dense green branches, leaving dappled shadows.

Su Xiaosu was pulled up from the bed by Xiaoxue, and when she heard the "Emperor's Birthday Banquet" in a daze, she suddenly woke up, pulled Xiaoxue's clothes, was slightly excited, and asked, "Xiaoxue, what did you just say?" ”

"The slave maid said, tonight is the emperor's birthday banquet, young lady, you have to dress up early and enter the palace with King Rui."

Su Xiaosu was excited, and when she was in college, she thought that she would go to the Forbidden City in Beijing after graduation, but she couldn't do it because of her busy work. Now the crossing has given her the opportunity to get what she wants, and it is fake to say that she is not excited and excited. Although this is a country of snow and mulberry that she has never heard of, it is prosperous, and the grandeur of the palace must be luxurious and magnificent.

"Miss?"

"What's wrong?"

Su Xiaosu saw Xiaoxue staring at her with a suspicious expression.

"Miss, why do you seem excited?"

Su Xiaosu hurriedly restrained his excitement and said with a smile: "Don't care if I'm excited or not, let's hurry up and dress up, it's not good to miss the time to enter the palace." ”

Hearing this, Xiaoxue let out a low voice, the expression on her face changed from surprise to panic in an instant, and she didn't want to think about it, so she hurriedly brought clothes and jewelry to dress up for Su Xiaosu.

At the emperor's birthday banquet, everyone dressed up. Su Xiaosu let Xiaoxue dress her up, tossing from early morning to afternoon, and then she was dressed properly.

Looking at himself in the mirror, the green silk is combed into a half-moon bun and embellished with chic hairpins. The skin is as fine as warm jade, the eyebrows are lightly swept, the eyes are clear, the thin nose is straight, and the corners of the lips are slightly pretty, delicate and beautiful. Dressed in a purple palace dress, without the slightest inlay accessories, only a strip of aqua green silk tied around the waist, which looks both noble and elegant.

is really a beauty, Su Xiaosu couldn't help but sigh.

Xiaoxue stared at her for a while, and sighed: "Miss is so good-looking!" ”

Although he knew that Xiaoxue was praising Su Yirong, the owner of this body, Su Xiaosu was still very happy, after all, it was a joy to be praised for being beautiful.

Su Xiaosu raised her head and winked at Xiaoxue.

In the afternoon, the wind is soft and the sky is clear.

Su Xiaosu and Leng Yanxi boarded the Zhulun carved carriage together. It has been five or six days since the last time they met, and Su Xiaosu saw Leng Yanxi again, who she hadn't seen for a few days, and she realized that she was so excited that she forgot that she had entered the palace with Leng Yanxi.

His appearance is still handsome and gentle, but Su Xiaosu can still feel the coldness emanating from his bones.

Su Xiaosu fluttered her long eyelashes, made an exaggerated smile at Leng Yanxi, and then turned her gaze away and turned her head to look out of the car.

She looked out of the car and asked, "Lord, are there any taboos that I need to keep in mind in advance when entering the palace this time?" ”

"You know all the court etiquette, you don't need this king to teach you." He paused, "There are not too many rules in front of this king, and when you enter the palace, you can no longer call yourself 'me'." ”

Hearing his clear and emotionless voice, her heart skipped a slight beat, and there was a hint of coldness in her tone, "The concubine knows." ”

After the words were spoken, neither of them spoke again, and the carriage was silent.

This atmosphere made Su Xiaosujue's back a little cold, and in order to break the strange atmosphere, she asked again: "There are so many ladies in the palace, there are always people who need to be cautious about the concubines?" ”

Hearing this, Leng Yanxi's slender black eyes suddenly tightened, his face was as calm as water, and there was no emotion in his eyes. Su Xiaosu didn't hear his answer, turned his head, and happened to touch his dark eyes. She was shocked, thinking back to what she had just asked, and it was really difficult to find out what was wrong.

His eyes were intertwined, Su Xiaosu couldn't match the fierceness hidden in his eyes, and coughed lightly, suppressing the panic in his heart, "Did the concubine say the wrong thing?" ”

He still didn't speak, his eyes fell on her for a long time, and finally slowly moved away, and said indifferently: "You think too much." ”

She immediately muttered in her heart, who is it, it is strange not to think about it in such a situation. She should be glad that she has been honing in the company for more than half a year, and she has seen anyone who is difficult to serve, otherwise, her little heart would have been frightened by this deep and fierce gaze.

"You don't have to be too nervous, the palace is not as terrible as you think, just treat each other with common courtesy."

Su Xiaosu pretended to be relieved and nodded, but he was muttering in his heart that the palace is really not terrible compared to you.

Seeing that she was silent, Leng Yanxi glanced at her lightly and closed her eyes. Seeing that he was closing his eyes to recuperate, Su Xiaosu immediately grimaced at him. However, in the next second, Su Xiaosu felt that his face was burning.

"What are you doing?"

Leng Yanxi's dark eyes swelled with an imperceptible smile, looking at Su Xiaosu who was dancing in front of him.

How did she know that he would suddenly open his eyes, and he was frightened and still maintained the posture just now, hearing this, he hurriedly withdrew his hand, and also returned to his normal expression, and smiled weakly, "The concubine is afraid that she will be too nervous, and her facial expression will be a little stiff, so she is trying to practice squeezing her eyebrows and making her eyes." ”

"Oh?" He looked at her inquiringly.

Su Xiaosu could meet his gaze at first, but in the end, because of his weak heart, he couldn't stand it, and immediately lowered his head. I thought to myself, it's really powerful, the prince in the palace is worthy of growing up playing with his heart.

One door after another, one after another, and it was already close to dusk when I arrived at the Yuhua Palace where the birthday banquet was held.

Looking at the luxurious palace pavilions in front of you, the vermilion walls and golden tiles, showing a golden splendor everywhere. If it weren't for Leng Yanxi beside him, Su Xiaosu would have been excited to trot and embrace everything here, and sighed secretly in his heart, what a royal atmosphere, although you can feel the magnificence and splendor of the palace from the TV series, but being in the palace is another feeling.

When Su Xiaosu and Leng Yanxi arrived in the palace, the concubines and princes in the palace and their families were seated in their respective banquets, and some officials and family members had also returned to their seats one after another.

After returning to his seat, Su Xiaosu began to look at the people in the hall. The concubines of each palace were dressed up to attend, and when they looked at it, it was really colorful and gorgeous.

"The emperor has arrived, Concubine Liu has arrived!"

With the sound of a eunuch's shrill voice, Emperor Jiaren, the emperor of the Xuesang Kingdom, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, walked slowly into the hall with Liu Guifei, who was dressed in full costume.

Su Xiaosu was wondering why Emperor Jiaren was not present with the empress, however, when she witnessed Liu Guifei's appearance, her mind was blank, and it was like a basin of cold ice water suddenly overturning down, making her shiver involuntarily.

This woman ......

Such a vivid color, such a splendid peerless, so captivating the country and the city......

Su Xiaosu used all the words she could think of in her mind to describe her, and she felt that it was not enough. She had never seen such a beautiful person, and the beauty made people forget to breathe.

No wonder?! No wonder the emperor would come out with her, with such a beautiful woman by his side, he would be in a good mood.

After Su Xiaosu knelt down with everyone to salute, after getting up and returning to her seat, she saw that the concubines present in the hall all showed expressions of envy, jealousy and hatred. It's no wonder that they have such expressions, in other words, although it is not in their situation, they want to be beautiful and happy, but she can't help but be envious and jealous, and can't help it, and frequently glances at Liu Guifei a few times.

After the emperor was seated, the dinner officially began, and the palace ladies dressed in pink tulle skirts, like flowers and butterflies, presented delicious delicacies and elixir like water. The cheerful sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and several graceful dancers danced on the red carpet in the middle of the main hall.

The splendid and splendid Yuhua Palace.

The aroma of wine is overflowing.

Bright as day.

It was a wonderful night, and there was no reason why she couldn't enjoy it all. What's more, she was really hungry, looking at the delicious food in front of her, she completely forgot to look at the Liu Guifei who was captivating the country and the city, picked up the jade chopsticks, and ate them.

Take a bite, take a sip, smile, take a look, although he didn't care, Su Xiaosu was also happy.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere at the banquet was lively. Several princes also began to have fun with each other, and they raised their glasses to each other. The noise of one of the princes was the loudest, and Su Xiaosu couldn't help but look at that voice. Looking up, the owner of the voice also looked over and met her gaze.

Su Xiaosu was slightly startled, and immediately showed a bright smile at him, and then lowered his head and ate. For her, good food is an irresistible temptation. How can you not enjoy the food at the moment?

After eating a bite of exquisite dishes, the banquet suddenly became quiet, and the eunuch shouted: "King Rui and Princess Su Yirong came forward to meet him." ”
