Chapter 47: Chinese New Year's Eve

-

In the past six months, she has also participated in a lot of large and small royal banquets, and she has long lost the novelty of her first arrival. I thought to myself, the Spring Festival banquet was nothing special, it was the same as the usual banquet, but the time and name of the banquet were different.

The more you look forward to it, the slower time passes, and vice versa, the faster time will appear.

In the blink of an eye, Chinese New Year's Eve arrived, and the palace chose Yuhua Palace to celebrate.

At night, in the Yuhua Palace, hundreds of gorgeous glass lamps light up the vermilion and gilt corridor, through the screen window with a film like cicada wings, through the carved vermilion lacquered wooden window, scattering ambiguous golden light. Many scattered braziers in the hall are burning, as bright as spring and as bright as day. In the courtyard, the beautiful stones are accompanied by flowing water, the shadows of the trees intersect, and the delicate palace lamps scatter cold light in the night.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone in the hall was dressed up, and the maids dressed in light purple tulle walked lightly through the lobby and courtyard, and the dark fragrance was surging and lively.

Su Yirong only wore a smoky butterfly skirt, a soft wool brocade cloak outside, and her pretty face was also plain and clean, not as pretentious as other fat powder in this lobby, but it looked fresh and elegant.

She had already sat down in her place, and had been here for an hour, and she wanted to fall asleep in the warmth of the brazier beside her. For some reason, she really couldn't lift her spirits for today's feast. No matter how lively the scene was, she was in no mood to pay attention to it.

Early this morning, she was pulled up from bed by Xiaoxue early, and she almost came over in a daze to wash and change clothes. When she got to the carriage, she didn't forget to find this time to sleep.

Because the banquet was about to start in the evening, Su Yirong also took advantage of this time to go to the Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace. The Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace is very lively, and the emperor went to the Yongshou Palace with all the concubines in the morning, followed by the princes and their wives into the palace. Generally, at the banquet in the palace, if the princes have wives and concubines, they can only bring their wives into the palace, and the concubines can only stay in the palace.

For a time, the Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace was lively.

Su Yirong sat quietly beside the Queen Mother, and occasionally the Queen Mother spoke to her, and she smiled back and replied. The rest of the time, she was quietly listening to what they were saying.

Leng Yanxi glanced at her from time to time, and felt that she was a little strange tonight. When the Queen Mother went to rest, Leng Yanxi walked up to her and asked, "What's wrong with you today?" ”

Su Yirong smiled lightly, "What's wrong with me?" ”

Leng Yanxi's eyebrows condensed slightly, "This king is asking you." ”

Su Yirong smiled lightly, "I'm fine." ”

"It's okay, if there is anything, hold on until the evening feast begins, and this king will find another time to take you away."

Su Yirong nodded lightly.

After Leng Yanxi and their princes left, Su Yirong walked quietly on the bluestone road alone. The unexpected encounter with Leng Yanyi made her slightly surprised.

He was sitting in a quiet gazebo, undisturbed.

He saw her, and she saw him.

The surroundings are very quiet, and you can hear the sound of insects and birds, which is crisp and pleasant.

At the time, he was sitting in the gazebo playing the flute. And it was the sound of his flute that led her to one of his gardens. She stood quietly, hoping not to disturb the other. But he seemed to sense her and stopped playing the flute.

Su Yirong walked into the pavilion, bowed slightly, and asked, "Uncle Huang, why didn't Aunt Huang come today?" ”

Leng Yanyi smiled faintly, "She has never liked such a palace banquet, even if it is such an important banquet today, but she has the temperament to come, she just doesn't want to come." I can't do anything about her, I can only let her. ”

Hearing this, Su Yirong was slightly stunned. She never thought about what Ye Ruofeng would be like if she was sexual.

"Why aren't you with Yanxi?"

She smiled slightly, "Their brothers are chatting together, and one of my daughters' family staying on the sidelines will only make them talk cramped, and I feel bored." I simply came alone to visit the gardens in the palace, thinking that it would be good. ”

Leng Yanyi smiled lightly and did not speak again. He picked up the flute in his hand, put it to his mouth, and blew it. The melodious and graceful sound of the flute immediately sounded, lingering in the ears, giving people a sense of silence.

The two of them sat in the gazebo for three hours. I just sat quietly, but I didn't feel embarrassed. It wasn't until someone came looking for him that he left the gazebo.

Su Yirong sat alone in the gazebo, looking at the place where he had sat in a daze.

Suddenly, a small ball made of paper flew out of nowhere and smashed into her head. Su Yirong glanced around, opened the note and saw that there were only a few words written on it:

Tonight, meet in the pavilion of Siyu Lake.

Su Yirong immediately stood up, his eyes swept around, and he didn't see anyone. Pinching the note in his hand, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

Who will be asking her out? Could it be that the wrong person threw the note?

Su Yirong felt that the latter was relatively unlikely, but she couldn't think of who would ask her out. Tonight, two hours after the feast began. If he secretly left the feast at that time, even if Emperor Jiaren saw it, it would not be good.

Before it was determined who threw the note, Su Yirong didn't want to go. But subconsciously, she put the note away and decided to go and see it at night.

Thinking of this, she slowly left the pavilion and went to the Empress Dowager's Yongshou Palace [Special Imperial Concubine is not good to mess with Chapter 47: Chinese New Year's Eve Chapter]. Estimating the time, the Queen Mother should also get up.

In the Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace, the sky was slowly getting dark. She helped the Queen Mother to walk in the direction of Yuhua Palace, talking and laughing all the way, but she was also happy.

Looking at the Yuhua Palace, the dancing girl was dancing.

The concubines are also trying their best to attract the attention of Emperor Jiaren.

Su Yirong sat at the banquet for nearly an hour before getting up and heading in the direction of Siyu Lake.

The night is misty and quiet.

Yuhua Palace is also a distance away from Siyu Lake, and it took Su Yirong nearly half an hour to reach Siyu Lake. In the summer, Siyu Lake opened a whole lake of lotus. In winter, it is empty, only a few willow trees by the lake, which is slightly lonely.

Moon, quietly climbed on the willow branches.

Su Yirong walked slowly towards the pavilion in the lake, she didn't know who it was that asked her to come to Siyu Lake with a piece of paper. With this question, she slowly approached the gazebo, and it was not until she saw two familiar figures embracing each other that she suddenly stopped and hid behind the willow tree beside her.

She saw that in the pavilion, her husband was hugging the emperor's concubine Liu Guifei.

Under the bright moon and breeze, in the sea of flowers and green trees, a pair of beautiful people, leaning on each other, teaching people to can't help but sigh.

Su Yirong looked at the scene in front of him in shock, and the self-deprecating smile on his face became stronger and stronger. She couldn't believe what she was seeing, and the shock made her forget to leave, and her fingers were embedded in the willow bark inch by inch.

A heart-rending pain came, and she lowered her eyes, only to realize that the nails of her fingers had oozed blood.

The pain pulled back her thoughts, she had no desire to look any further, and she didn't know how she left Siyu Lake, and where she stumbled all the way.

In the pavilion, seeing the stumbling figure disappear, Liu Guifei showed a smug smile on her face.

A force pushed her away, and Leng Yanxi wrinkled his eyebrows, "You asked me to come, what is the matter?" ”

The woman replied, "Xi, you tell you, I want you to tell me honestly, do you like her?" Do you really like her? ”

Leng Yanxi frowned, "No." Even if I like her, she's my wife, what's wrong with me liking her? ”

"Nope." The woman clenched his arm again, her beautiful eyes choked with tears, "You once said that you would only like me alone, how can you change your mind?" ”

"In early summer, you've changed." Leng Yanxi couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, I once said that I will only love you one." It still hasn't changed, my early summer is still alive in my heart, and you are not early summer. ”

The woman stepped back in surprise, hit the pillar straight, and cried with tears: "Xi, don't force me." ”

Leng Yanxi frowned, stepped forward, and grabbed her arm with both hands, "It's you who are forcing me, it's you who are forcing me again and again." Since you have changed, why don't you become more thorough and make me forget that there is a woman named Liu Chuxia in this world. ”

Liu Guifei looked at him in horror with hazy teary eyes, "Xi, you are finally angry." ”

"I'm crazy, driven crazy by you."

Liu Guifei suddenly smiled, "If you are angry with me, it proves that you still have me in your heart, right?" ”

Leng Yanxi's eyes lit up, "Enough, what's the point of saying this." ”

She looked at him and laughed, crying, "I just need to know that you have a heart for me, so that I have the meaning to persevere." ”

Leng Yanxi closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the bottom of his eyes was calm, "If the concubine is fine, this king will leave first." ”

"Wait a minute," Liu Guifei hugged him, her face resting on his back, "Let me hug you for a while, just for a while." ”

Leng Yanxi closed his eyes again, broke the slender fingers covering his waist, and there was no ripple in his voice, "In the future, please respect yourself." ”

When the words fell, it seemed that two hearts could be heard shattering at the same time.

Liu Guifei no longer had the strength to call him, to hug him, and sat on the ground, watching his back slowly disappear in the night.

Leng Yanxi left Siyu Lake and hurried to Yuhua Palace. His eyes swept over the entire Yuhua Palace, and he didn't see Su Yirong's figure. Slightly startled, he waved his hand at Thirteen, motioning for him to come over.

When the thirteenth was near, he hurriedly asked, "Have you seen Rong'er?" ”

Thirteen subconsciously swept to His Royal Highness and said, "Will the sixth sister-in-law return home in advance?" ”

Leng Yanxi instructed the eunuch to find it, and he sat in the banquet and waited. According to what he knew about her, she shouldn't have been the first to go back to the house without leaving a word.

Just thinking about it, his eyes fell on the phoenix seat next to the high platform, and Liu Guifei sat quietly on the phoenix mansion, but her eyes fell on him through the crowd.

Leng Yanxi tilted his head slightly, avoiding that gaze.
