Chapter 32: King Zhao's Birthday Banquet
When I woke up in the morning, I only felt a splitting headache, I drank too much wine last night, my mouth was dry, my body was weak, and I was extremely uncomfortable. Seeing her wake up, Jin Se hurriedly handed over warm hot water, and poured two large cups into the wind to feel more comfortable.
Jin Se said with some distress: "Master, you really frightened the slave maid last night, drank so much wine, came back staggering alone, and fell asleep as soon as you entered the door, without even taking off your clothes." ”
Feng Qingxu smiled and said, "It's worth it to be drunk." ”
Jin Se was puzzled in his heart, not understanding the meaning of the light wind.
Feng Qingxu didn't explain, and lay back on the bed lazily, she naturally wouldn't tell Jinse what happened last night.
As soon as she saw Xiao Yat Ting, she knew what he was going to do, but she didn't break it, pretending to drink and have fun with him quite happily, but the corner of her eye never left his hand. Sure enough, while they were drinking happily, Xiao Yating began to pretend to be careless and drugged her wine glass.
Xiao Yating thought that she was not strong enough to drink, but in fact, she still maintained three points of sobriety, so when he raised his hand, she suddenly pretended to let him take her away, and sure enough, Xiao Yating was so frightened that he was not possessed and fled.
Feng Qingxu had just experienced more intense pain than before on the fifteenth night, and he was still apprehensive about Xiao Yating's potion, and he didn't dare to take it lightly anymore. But after this confrontation, Feng Qingxu felt that he seemed to have found a way to fight Xiao Yat Ting.
After Xiao Yating came to the East Palace, he didn't appear for a long time, probably because King Zhao's birthday was about to begin, and Xiao Yating was left at home by Princess Zhao to prepare a birthday banquet, so it was a lot easier. She counted the days when Xiao Yating was drugged, and it was exactly once in ten days, and she had a rough calculation in her heart.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Zhao Wangshou's birthday, which happened to be the day of Xiao Yiting's medication, and Xiao Yuning came to Jinghe Hall early to go with her.
Feng Qingxu refused: "I have never liked this kind of liveliness, you don't know, I have never been to anyone's birthday banquet, and I will not go today." ”
Xiao Yuning didn't care about the resoluteness of the breeze, but coaxed: "This time, Zhao Wangshou's birthday invited the most famous opera troupe to sing, as well as famous singers in the capital and all kinds of juggling, which is very interesting. ”
Feng Qingxu was unmoved: "I don't want to go." ”
Xiao Yuning sighed, held Feng Qingshu's shoulders, and insisted on it in his eyes: "You are my crown princess, you will be the queen in the future, you can't always be like this." ”
Feng Qingxu's heart sank, he had never forced her to go out, obviously Xiao Yuning had already known that Xiao Yating's medicine had some effect through the abnormal appearance of the Gu worm attack that day, so he had expectations for her in his heart.
Xiao Yuning said again: "Asu, don't worry, I will always be with you." ”
Feng Qingxu looked at Xiao Yuning's expectant gaze, but finally refused.
The outside of the Zhao Wang's Mansion is full of lights, and the doors are like a city, and the people who come and go are all high-ranking officials and nobles in the court, red clothes and purple robes, either rich or expensive.
When the gatekeeper saw the carriage of the East Palace coming, he hurriedly went in to spread the word.
As soon as the wind came out of the carriage, she saw countless men, women and children in costumes standing outside the Zhao Wangfu, staring at her with their eyes brushed.
Xiao Yuning didn't care about stretching out his hand and directly carrying her out of the carriage, and at the same time whispered in her ear: "Asu, don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
Feng Qingxu suddenly felt relieved, so he calmed down, ignored the eyes of the surrounding crowd, and pretended to follow Xiao Yuning all the way into King Zhao's mansion as if nothing happened.
King Zhao and Princess Zhao heard that the crown prince and the crown princess of the East Palace were coming, and they were busy welcoming them from afar.
Zhao Wang had a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and deep eyes, and after seeing Xiao Yuning and Feng Qingxu, a rare smile appeared on his face, which had always been unsmiling.
But Princess Zhao is smiling, she is nearly forty years old, and there is not a trace of wrinkles on her well-maintained face.
Feng Qingxu saw Xiao Yiting who seemed to be very well-behaved behind King Zhao at a glance.
Xu is to give his father a little thin face, Xiao Yiting is dressed very neatly today, and a ruby jade crown meticulously holds his black hair, which makes his face like jade, and his spirit is flying.
Xiao Yating also saw Feng Qingxu, and the moment Feng Qingxu saw that he was looking at him, the expression on his face began to become unnatural.
Seeing this, Feng Qingxu felt that the restraint on his body disappeared in an instant, and he couldn't help but want to tease him, so when everyone was about to enter the main hall after greetings, he deliberately took two steps behind, walked beside him, and whispered: "The prince of the world is really a jade tree in the wind today, heroic, presumably there must be a sweetheart who is coming today, right?" ”
"You...... Don't talk nonsense! Xiao Yiting's face was stained with thin anger, "The crown princess is young, how can she open her mouth and close her mouth, and she is not ashamed!" ”
Feng Qingxu saw that he was angry, and his heart suddenly felt refreshed, and said: "No matter how young I am, I am already a wife, why can't I say it?" It's the son of the world, who wasted this good skin, and didn't even have a sweetheart. ”
After Feng Qingsu finished speaking, he waited for Xiao Yating to refute, but Xiao Yating stopped talking, Feng Qingxu was feeling strange, Xiao Yuning had turned around, and took her hand with a smile and walked into the main hall.
Feng Qingxu and Xiao Yuning sat on the upper seat together, Xiao Yuning deliberately asked Wei Xiu to stand behind Feng Qingxu and carefully explained to her the identities of all kinds of people who came to visit.
Feng Qingxu saw that although most of the people who came to the birthday banquet this time were courtiers, but more of them were young ladies from various families who had not left the cabinet, all dressed like flowers, and their demeanor was excellent, obviously Princess Zhao specially invited to see Xiao Yiting.
Although those young ladies looked reserved and gentle, they couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yating out of the corner of their eyes when they came to visit. Xiao Yating only has a serious appearance, with a handsome face, sitting upright, and not squinting.
Seeing this, Feng Qingxu couldn't help but secretly feel funny.
"Zhou Jingyang, a scholar of the Middle Pole Temple, and his wife and young lady visited the prince......"
With the sound of singing, the surrounding crowd seemed to be quiet in an instant, and Feng Qingxu felt the strangeness around him, and couldn't help but look up.
That Zhou Jingyang, like King Zhao, was unsmiling, and there was no expression on his calm face, while his wife only lowered her head, looking cautious. The two of them were not outstanding in the crowd, but the figure that appeared behind them immediately grabbed everyone's attention.
Feng Qingxu looked at it intently, and saw that the woman came with Zhou Jingyang and his wife, her footsteps were not chaotic, the ring did not make any sound, and even the skirt seemed to be immovable, and her demeanor was dignified and elegant. The eyebrows are not painted, the lips are not dotted but Zhu, a plain and gentle face has a charming posture.
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, only quietly looking at the noble and elegant woman in front of them, and even Xiao Yuning, who was used to seeing beauties, couldn't help but be stunned.
