Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Palace Horror Winter Feast

Su Liruo had read the Essays on the Humanities and Customs of the Great Moon, and knew that it was very taboo to pour wine and break the cup at some of the big ceremonial banquets in the Moon Country, which meant that it was unlucky and that there was a misfortune coming, and the big one would decline the country's fortunes, and the small one would have internal and external troubles. It is clearly recorded in the notes that a minister of the Moon Kingdom accidentally poured a cup and spilled wine during a banquet, and was whipped with fifty rods and ordered to reflect on himself. If the glass is broken and the wine is spilled, the heavier person will be stripped of the title and sentenced to prison.

With such strict rules, especially such a grand feast as the winter banquet and a ceremony celebrated by the whole country in the big moon, how can it be missed?

Emperor Entropy was on a high seat, his body covered in cold air and looking down, his eyes were gloomy, and he swept sharply over everyone at the banquet. At this time, everyone at the table was panicked, frightened, and did not dare to answer, and they all secretly wondered in their hearts: Who is so unlucky to miss the cup in such an important scene?

A group of dancing girls were terrified and fell to their knees, and the broken white jade cups on the carpet stood out.

Concubine Ling was faintly uneasy in her heart, and she instructed Mama Gui behind her to let the dancers retreat, so as not to hurt the innocent in His Majesty's anger.

When the dancing girl retreated, there was a panicked silence on the field, silently tormenting everyone's hearts, and the guards guarding the banquet were already ready to go.

Su Liruo suppressed his panic and looked at Feng Xuanyu in shock, but saw him holding the cup alone and tasting it, as if he was immersed in the elixir and jade liquor, and ignored the matter of smashing the cup.

Su Liruo didn't know why he was so calm? Can't figure out what he's thinking at this time? But her heart was still beating wildly.

"Your Majesty, the winter banquet is an auspicious day to pray for blessings, and the wine spilling cup is a metaphor for the harmony of heaven and earth, and the coming of blessings is an auspicious image." Concubine Ling's seat was closest to Emperor Entropy, and she leaned sideways and said slowly: "I hope Your Majesty will tolerate unintentional mistakes and will not be held accountable!" The feast continued, perfect, and pleasing to heaven. ”

Concubine Ling was next to Concubine Xiao's seat, and after listening to Concubine Ling comforting the angry Emperor Entropy, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her expression was very disdainful, thinking: Ignorant woman, this statement is just self-deception! His eyes glanced at Captain Jiang on the opposite side, intentionally or unintentionally.

And Jiang Taiwei avoided her cold and profound eyes, and his face was gloomy. Just now, she suddenly made a move, and threw the cup with lightning speed, which really startled him. He has always opposed her making waves at the winter banquet, but she has to insist on going her own way, thinking that the winter banquet is an excellent opportunity, and the opportunity must not be lost, and all the ministers gather together, so as not to slip through the net, and those who go along will prosper and those who rebel will die, and solve it on the spot.

When Emperor Entropy heard this, his cold face gradually warmed up, he withdrew his sharp gaze, glanced at Concubine Ling gently, bowed his head slightly, slowly sat down, and was waving his hand to let the banquet continue, when suddenly a frightened voice came: "Your Majesty!"

"What's the flustery?" Emperor Entropy fixed his eyes and saw that it was the leader of the guards, and he couldn't help but be full of anger.

"The inside and outside of the palace walls have fallen, and they have been surrounded!" The leader of the guards rushed into the hall with a crawl and roll, and replied with a slight cry, this is inevitable, since the guard commander Qiu Jin followed Feng Xuanyu to the Qiyan Mountain training camp, all the big and small things fell on him, the peace of the Moon Kingdom, how could there have been any changes? When he heard the report of the guards, he quickly climbed to the high front platform to inspect, and immediately took a breath of cold air, and the inside and outside of the palace wall were black, and it was estimated that there were tens of thousands of horses.

What the? Everyone was shocked and looked at each other, the father and son of the Wei family have been beheaded, who still has this ambition to usurp power? How could the palace walls fall and surround them?

The ministers could no longer hold back their eyes and looked sideways at Feng Xuanyu and Jiang Taiwei, as we all know, the two of them held the power Qi Yan Wolf Yin Liangshan training camp, and the soldiers came to the palace, which was nothing more than the responsibility of the two.

Feng Xuanyu's dark and incomprehensible face was unfathomable, and he put down his wine glass, his eyes were cold, ignoring everyone's doubts.

Jiang Taiwei's face was cold, his hands were clenched, and he didn't say a word, but the slightly trembling knuckles obviously revealed the anger in his heart at this time.

Everyone couldn't speculate, so they had to secretly slander: Could it be... Is there someone between these two who wants to raise an army against the government?

"Bastard thing!" Emperor Entropy slapped the table and scolded: "On the palace banquet, you dare to make a noise, demagoguery, soldiers are camped in Qiyan Wolf Hidden Mountain, why did the palace wall fall?"

"Your Majesty is angry! I have witnessed it with my own eyes, and I have indeed come to the palace city, and I dare not believe it if I am dead, and I hope that Your Majesty will decide, what should I do? The leader of the guards was shocked and fell to his knees.

Before the words were spoken, a guard chief rushed in and shouted, "Oh no! A few masked people with strong martial arts rushed into the palace, and our people were not opponents at all! ”

Emperor Entropy glared angrily, how could he not have thought that under his power, someone in the peaceful and prosperous Dayue would actually raise troops to besiege Miyagi? And choose to rebel at today's winter banquet?

The winter banquet is a grand celebration for the whole country, and the rebels and thieves actually chose to start on such an important festival? Who exactly? Could it be Captain Jiang? Maybe he...

Emperor Entropy's heart sank, his gaze swept over several princes, and finally paused to look at Feng Xuanyu, what puzzled him was that Feng Xuanyu's face was gloomy, his eyes were lowered, but his expression was indifferent, he turned a blind eye to Emperor Entropy's inquiring gaze!

Feng Xuanjing hesitated for a moment, got up and said loudly: "Father, let Erchen go out and have a look!" As soon as he finished speaking,

Feng Xuansheng also got up and left his seat, and said with his head held high: "Father, the son is with the third brother!" It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!

"The retainers will also go with them!" Feng Xuanming, who had been depressed and silent, also spoke.

"No need to go, it's just a bluff outside, nothing is done." Feng Xuanyu finally raised his head and glanced at Feng Xuanjing and the others, then glanced at Feng Xuanming again, met Emperor Entropy's questioning eyes, and slowly straightened up, his voice was not loud, but it spread to every corner. "The real danger is at the banquet, do you say, Lord Captain?" He raised his eyebrows and said to Captain Jiang with a sideways face.

Everyone was stunned, such a spearhead was pointed at Captain Jiang, could it be that the soldiers outside were the people from the Wolf Hidden Mountain Military Camp?

Emperor Entropy lowered his eyes and slashed at Jiang Taiwei like a blade.

Jiang Taiwei twitched his face, his eyes drooped, and he threw himself at Concubine Xiao, passing over the resentment, and lost it in an instant. "Why did the king of Yi say this? The old man is stupid, and he still hopes that the king of Yi will make it clear! ”

Feng Xuanyu said in a deep voice at the corner of his mouth: "You and I each have the right to hold the army, and we will defend the two mountains, if the commander is not there, how can I send the generals to transfer the troops?" Surround the palace walls? As for the danger here, I'm afraid it's already a net, what? Is Lord Taiwei still pretending to be confused? ”

Feng Xuanyu's words made the people present stunned and at the same time suddenly realized, indeed! The military order is like a mountain, the commander is not in the barracks, how can the soldiers besiege the palace?

Taiwei Jiang stood up suddenly, and the guard behind him pressed his shoulder with one hand, and said in a low voice, "Don't move!" Jiang Taiwei was surprised: It's to stop practicing! He gritted his teeth and sat down slowly.

Feng Xuanming's eyes glanced at Concubine Xiao, and quickly separated after a short touch, his eyes were low, and his cuffs moved, but Feng Xuanyu's wrist was buckled, and he said coldly: "King Heng, don't be impatient!"

Feng Xuanming couldn't move, his face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "What are you doing?"

"Don't worry, if a good show is going to start, King Heng should calm down and appreciate it, so as not to lose the hard work of Concubine Xiao!" Feng Xuanyu's words did not fall, and the face of Concubine Xiao on the opposite side changed greatly.

She narrowed her phoenix eyes, clenched her palms, and wanted to make a move, before she could make a move, Naraku, who was dressed as a guard behind her, put her sword scabbard on her waist: "Concubine Xiao, the sword has no eyes, it's better not to move, so as not to hurt Niangniang!"

Concubine Xiao froze her body, sparse and careless, and deliberately arranged the siege of the palace, but she didn't expect that the guards at the banquet were actually replaced by Feng Xuanyu, and all of them became his subordinates, Feng Xuanyu's opponent was really terrifying!

Emperor Entropy glanced at Concubine Xiao, his eyes were almost spewing anger with disgust, and he said angrily, "What's going on? You explain it to me."

Concubine Xiao turned her face away and ignored Emperor Entropy with a sneer.

Concubine Ling was surprised by Concubine Xiao's attitude, she has always been taciturn, where dare she treat His Majesty so arrogantly? What's going on? The palace wall is surrounded, why is it involved in her? Maybe Concubine Ling never dreamed that this deep-hearted woman next to her would want to seek government and usurp power, and she is also a master of the rivers and lakes?

Seeing that she was so bold and contemptuous of him, Emperor Entropy couldn't help but be furious, and was about to get angry, but Father-in-law Nian helped him sit down and said lightly: "Your Majesty is angry, everything is done by the king of Yi, there is no need to be angry with this kind of sinner who harbors evil intentions!"

When Emperor Entropy heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and sighed: I didn't expect his harem to be so bold as to collude with the ministers of the court and seek to usurp power?

And Su Liruo was already stunned at this time: isn't the prince going to implement the revenge plan? How did it become a conspiracy of Taiwei Jiang and Concubine Xiao?

She stared at the ethereal moon white with bated breath, like falling clouds, and suddenly she thought of something, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Jiang Xueke, and saw her staring at Mrs. Jiang with an unbelievable expression!

Su Liruo sighed secretly in her heart: She must not be able to accept that Taiwei Jiang actually joined forces with Concubine Xiao to rebel?

When she was thinking about it, she saw Jiang Xueke's eyes moving to Feng Xuanming, her eyes were refracted with anger, she must have thought that Jiang Taiwei had always supported King Heng, so this alliance with Concubine Xiao to rebel against the government and force the palace was naturally for Feng Xuanming.

Su Liruo suddenly felt that she was very pitiful at this moment, how did she suffer such a blow? Because of their intrigues and tricks, they pushed her to the forefront, and she should survive like this in the Moon Country in the future?

Su Liruo patronized and worried about her, but forgot that Feng Xuanyu had warned her that Jiang Xueke was not as fragile and simple as she imagined, but scheming and elusive.

Although Feng Xuanming couldn't move because of Feng Xuanyu's wrist, he still felt Jiang Xueke's sharp and angry questioning gaze, he looked sideways, his eyes were full of apologies, even if he was watching the position of power and his ambition was obvious, but he never thought of pushing her to the point of being unbearable.

Jiang Xueke's angry eyes made his heart ache, no matter what time it was, she always only had Feng Xuanyu in her heart, and she was so sad and indignant because she hated them for confronting Feng Xuanyu!

Concubine Xiao raised her head and laughed, her laughter was sharp and harsh, and it was creepy, and just when everyone was frightened, her laughter stopped abruptly, and her voice was eerie: "Very good! Very good! It's rare to meet an opponent for so many years, and I'm very happy. Feng Xuanyu, you are really an interesting opponent, you have been hidden in the palace for too long, and you have forgotten the pleasure and enmity of the rivers and lakes. Come on! Let this seat soothe and soothe the muscles and bones, and practice hands. ”

Feng Xuanyu's cold face still didn't have a trace of waves, he let go of the pulse of Feng Xuanming's wrist, stared at Concubine Xiao with cold eyes, and said coldly: "Dugu Chou, you have lived in the palace for so long, you should pay off the debts owed here, you and I have no grudges in the rivers and lakes!"

"Oh!" Concubine Xiao was not annoyed by his identity, but asked with interest: "Then this seat wants to listen to what debts the king of Yi wants to settle the palace?" What grievances are there in the rivers and lakes? ”

Feng Xuanyu frowned slightly, and said with a deep gaze: "In the past, there was an evil sect in the rivers and lakes called the Dongyu Sect, which specialized in absorbing the blood of children and girls under the age of ten to help them practice divine skills. Such a ruthless method caused public anger in the martial arts, and more than 20 sects joined forces to crusade against and eradicate the Dongyu faction, but they were unexpectedly escaped by the great protector of Dongyu, and they were found for many years without a trace, so they were gone. ”

Feng Xuanyu's words made Concubine Xiao surprised for a moment, and then smiled calmly and said, "The story told by King Yi is very interesting!"

"Don't worry! The fun is yet to come. The corners of Feng Xuanyu's mouth swept over the evil charm and said deeply: "At that time, the palace chose a concubine, and Taiwei's cousin was selected to enter the palace. Unexpectedly, his cousin had a decisive personality, and seeing that the day of entering the palace was imminent, she could not escape, she was determined to die, and she was in love with Taiwei to death. After the tragedy, Taiwei was in pain, and at that time, Taiwei, who was good at making friends with people in the rivers and lakes, met a woman with strong martial arts, and this woman proposed to enter the palace instead of his cousin, so as not to be convicted by the Jiang people. The lieutenant was naturally grateful to her and often visited her in the palace. And this woman is the great protector of the Yuyu Island! ”

As soon as Feng Xuanyu's words came out, everyone was in an uproar and surprised.

Jiang Taiwei closed his eyes in a dejected manner, and the past cut the wounds of his life like a knife.

When Emperor Entropy heard this, the anger he had just suppressed instantly hit his heart again: no wonder he couldn't like her all the time, it turned out to be just an impostor female devil! It's disgusting to have been deceived by her for so many years!

Concubine Xiao couldn't be indifferent anymore, and gradually sank her face, extremely gloomy: It seems that Feng Xuanyu knows a lot! Anyone who knew too much, she would never let him stay alive, and at this time, she was shrouded in murderous aura.

Feng Xuanyu sneered: Finally attacked her weakness, and she began to be unable to hold back!

Feng Xuanming stared at Concubine Xiao in amazement, after so many years of mother and son, he didn't know that his mother and concubine were not from the Jiang family? But the people in the rivers and lakes? The royal harem chooses concubines, and attaches great importance to their origins and bloodlines, so how can they be confused at will? He has always despised Feng Xuanyu's biological mother, thinking that Concubine Xi's origin is unknown but he confuses his father and the emperor to be infatuated, so he despises Feng Xuanyu's impure background and is angry in his heart, Feng Xuanyu is not qualified to be crowned king as a prince.

Especially, after Feng Xuanyu returned with glory, Feng Xuanming regarded him as a thorn in his side, and his father favored him as much as he did when he was a child, and relied on him for everything. And his arrogant, arrogant and disdainful, and never put him in his eyes made him hate him, thinking that Jiang Xueke was infatuated with him, and would rather suffer all the grievances than enter his house. Not only did he take away his love, but even the position of the crown prince he had been watching for a long time, he also had to intervene sideways and push Feng Xuansheng into his position, new hatred and old hatred had already swallowed his heart, and he hated him to the core.

But he never expected that his origin and bloodline would not be pure, and even unbearable. If you care about Concubine Xi's unknown identity, and his biological mother is actually a murderous and bloodthirsty female demon!

How ironic! Feng Xuanming's heart twitched in pain, and his hands were clenched into fists.

Feng Xuanyu raised his head and looked at Emperor Entropy, his gaze swept over unbearably, but it disappeared in an instant, still cold. After a while, he said in a deep voice: "At that time, Xu was too angry, and the harem was a place where beauties were like clouds, and Dugu was not treated by His Majesty, and he was always neglected. And the ambitious Dugu Chou will sit still and wait to die? In order to obtain the honorable status, she began to plan and implement her first plan... Mothers are more expensive than children. At that time, the only person who could be used by her was Taiwei Jiang..."Speaking of this, Feng Xuanyu paused and was silent, staring at Emperor Entropy with a deep gaze.

What the! Emperor Entropy was shocked, almost slumped in his seat, his hands trembled, his throat seemed to be stuck by something, he couldn't say a word, he was panting and embarrassed and angry: this female demon is actually... is so bold that he blasphemes the descendants of the royal family!

"Your Majesty, don't be angry, it's not worth it for such a sinner!" Nian's father-in-law was busy stroking his back for Emperor Entropy.

Jiang Taiwei opened his eyes in panic, his eyes were damp, and he sighed deeply: This day has finally come!

Feng Xuanming's face was like ashes, humiliated, embarrassed, and resentful surged into his heart, like a knife piercing his heart, stirring his flesh and blood blurred, and he was in pain.

He jerked his head up and stared at her, his gaze as sharp as a beast.

Feng Xuanming's resentful gaze made Concubine Xiao's heart ache, she gritted her teeth, and said hatefully: "Feng Xuanyu, today is either you die or I die!" I saw a figure flashing and soaring.

Naluo only felt that the scabbard was loosened, and the figure of Concubine Xiao was no longer visible on the seat, and when she raised her eyes, she was menacing and swept towards Feng Xuanyu, and said secretly: Not good! Dugu Chou will transfer the soul of Dafa, I don't know the owner of the village... But when he thought of it, the owner of the village repeatedly told him to protect Concubine Ling and the eldest princess, and he had to stand in place when he thought of this.

Su Liruo's face turned white, she got up in fright, but she was pulled by a pair of powerful hands behind her, and she hurriedly turned around: It's the night shadow!

"Miss Su should not act rashly, so as not to distract the prince!" Nightshade whispered.

"But..."Su Liruo was so anxious, only to see Concubine Xiao's eyes showing a fierce light, her face was as hideous as evil, where could she sit calmly? Trembling said, "Night Shadow, hurry! Come over and help! ”

"The prince instructed his subordinates to protect Miss Su thoroughly, and Night Shadow didn't dare to derelict her responsibilities without authorization!" Nightshade muttered.
