Chapter 384: Scheming at the Dust Washing Banquet
Baili Yunzheng's gaze stayed on Liu Yi's face for a long time, frowned slightly, and chuckled: "What if you lose, what if you win?" It's just a joke, so why are you so serious? ”
His voice drifted through the air, mixed with a faint sadness, and seemed a little nihilistic.
It seems that he is not in a very good mood.
Liu Yi gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, "Maybe for you, it's a farce, but it's not for me." ”
For so many years, he has been by Qianya's side, guarding Qianya, secretly feeling emotional, and he can also see that Qianya is dependent on him. But since Baili Yunzheng appeared, Qianya's heart has been completely taken away.
He was unwilling, and he thought that he couldn't compare to himself in everything, but in today's competition, he knew that he had lost completely.
The moment he escaped from the palace, he lost.
In front of him, Baili Yunzheng pursed his lips, and his dark eyes reflected Liu Yi's appearance, without a trace of waves. He didn't speak, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a while, Liu Yi opened his mouth and sighed: "Baili Yunzheng, I have never asked anyone to do anything in my life, and now, I just want to invite you to treat Princess Qianya well." ”
It was his only wish.
He knew that with his identity, Qianya would eventually throw herself into the arms of other men, although he didn't accept Baili Yunzheng at first, but when things developed to this point, he was helpless.
As long as Qianya can be happy.
Baili Yunzheng squinted his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said deliberately: "Why do you ask for this?" You know, I have no intention of Qianya. ”
He doesn't want to marry Qianya, but he doesn't want the two countries to go to war and be ruined, so if he continues to develop like this, he will inevitably be disappointed.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Liu Yi suddenly fell to his knees.
The number one warrior of the Bhikshu Country, who has killed countless enemies in his life, has never been afraid of anything, but at this moment, he actually knelt down in front of Baili Yunzheng like this.
"This is my request." Liu Yi said, and the whole person fell to the ground.
In such an embarrassed position, he did not feel any discomfort.
Baili Yunzheng's face gradually showed a look of surprise, and he looked at Liu Yi who was kneeling down in front of him, with a complicated expression in his eyes.
This scene happened to be seen by Qianya, who came to look for Baili Yunzheng.
At this time, Qianya was standing at the door, looking at the words that Liu Yi said when he knelt on the ground, and her heart warmed.
She knew that Liu Yi had always been very good to her, but only now did she really feel that he really cared for her.
I couldn't help but smile lightly.
The maid who followed behind her paused, and poked her head into the room a little strangely, "Princess, ...... you?"
"Shh Qianya turned around suddenly, covered the maid's mouth, put her index finger to her lips, made a silent motion, and turned her head to look at the two people in the room, as if she didn't notice them.
So, she beckoned to the maid and turned to leave.
Inside the house, Baili Yunzheng looked at Liu Yi for a long time, and finally turned his gaze away and looked at the round of brightness above the black canopy.
The bright moon finally poked its head out of the dark color, and gently covered the earth with a layer of silvery white.
His eyes also seemed to be dyed with a thin layer of moonlight, revealing a little light, "Are you interested in Qianya?" ”
Hit the nail on the head.
Liu Yi was stunned for a moment.
In fact, he already knew this answer, but his status was lowly and he was not worthy of Qianya.
He is self-aware.
Hiding the sad emotions in his eyes, Liu Yi responded in a deep voice: "The princess is noble, Liu Yi never dares to be delusional. ”
The words are very clear.
Baili Yunzheng glanced at him in a little surprise, and then, he felt as if it was expected, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sneer, "We are all one kind of person, why do you lie to me?" ”
Liu Yi lowered his eyelids and did not speak.
The night breeze blew, with a rich night, spread again in the majestic palace in Jiangbei, crossing the long palace road, like a helpless sigh.
No one hears, no one cares.
The next day, the sun rose, and the palace returned to its former bustle.
Especially for today's dust-washing banquet specially held for Qianya, the palace maids and eunuchs were called up early in the morning to be busy.
Later, the dust washing banquet was held, and the monks and envoys and Jiangbei officials and other cadres entered the palace, which was even more noisy.
Li Chuxia entered the palace early, and after explaining that the dining room had prepared the meal, he was led up to the main hall by the palace maid and found an inconspicuous place to sit down, but he never thought that as soon as he looked up, he saw Baili Yunzheng and Qianya sitting side by side.
Talented and beautiful, good to be born right.
Yan Ruoxi, who was sitting on the left side of the top, saw Li Chuxia's somewhat blue face, and deliberately turned his head with a wine glass and smiled: "Look at Lord Baili and Princess Qianya, it is really made in heaven, I can't complain about God's arrangement, I want you to become husband and wife." ”
As he said this, he looked at Li Chuxia intentionally or unintentionally.
thinks that at the beginning, she had already stepped into the door of Lang's house, but she was disturbed by Li Chuxia, and now, she can be regarded as a gift to Li Chuxia.
As long as he is a clear-eyed person, I am afraid that he can see that Yan Ruoxi has other intentions.
But on the field, no one will say anything to help.
After all, Li Chuxia has no power or power, and now Baili Yunzheng has become a bhikshu concubine, and from the outsider's point of view, she has even fallen out of favor. Helping her speak, not only will she not be beneficial, but she will also offend Yan Ruoxi.
The crowd watched the play in silence.
Qianya didn't know if she was pretending to be stupid or really didn't notice it, she even picked up her wine glass and smiled in the direction of Yan Ruoxi, "Concubine Yan is ridiculous." ”
The two toasted and drank a glass.
Yan Ruoxi gently wiped the corners of her mouth, glanced in the direction of Li Chuxia from the corner of her eyes, and said with a smile: "The princess is beautiful and understanding, thinking about it, Lord Baili must like it very much, and when she enters the gate of Baili's house in the future, she will be very pampered." The one in the original Baili Lord's mansion wants to come, so he has no place to be ashamed......"
These words were like one quenched knife after another, stabbing towards Li Chuxia's heart fiercely.
How could Li Chuxia not hear such sarcasm?
But now, she could only endure it, biting her lip flap, hanging her head, and not hearing anything.
On the other side, Baili Yunzheng, whose eyes had been falling on Li Chuxia, finally came to his senses, and his cold eyes shot straight at Yan Ruoxi on the top with a bit of terrifying coldness, and the hand holding the white jade porcelain wine glass also tightened.
"Concubine Yan, please pay attention to your words."
As soon as the words fell, I heard a soft sound of "pop", and the wine glass in his hand suddenly cracked and turned into several small pieces of broken porcelain.
This sudden change frightened Yan Ruoxi's face pale.
This is clearly a threat!
She gritted her teeth and was about to scold, but suddenly heard the monks and envoys at the table clapping their hands and said with a smile: "Lord Baili is really strong!" It really deserves to be the god of war in Jiangbei. ”
It seems that this bhikshu envoy is very fond of their concubine.
Yan Ruoxi's reprimand could only be swallowed back from his throat.
Not to mention that she couldn't move Baili Yunzheng in the first place, but now that this Baili Yunzheng has become a bhikshu concubine, she has to be polite to him, and she can't be easily offended.
So, Yan Ruoxi could only smile and nod and said, "Yes, Lord Baili is brave and strategic, and the princess is really worthy of him." ”
At this time, Qianya seemed to have reacted, and immediately spoke up: "It is normal for a good man to have ambitions in all directions, three wives and four concubines." I can understand Yun Zheng, and in the future, I will get along well with Sister Chuxia. ”
As he spoke, he turned his face away and raised a sweet smile towards Li Chuxia.
In this way, in the eyes of everyone, I feel that Qianya is very generous.
Li Chuxia, who was suddenly named, raised his head suddenly, met Qian Ya's joyful gaze, only pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and nodded with a light smile.
But the indissoluble sadness in his eyes, Baili Yunzheng really saw it in his eyes.
Emperor Mingde saw that it was boring, so he changed the topic, and began to talk about the state and society with the monks and envoys, and as he spoke, the dishes were served one after another.
The food was delicious.
Just smelling it makes people feel good.
The bhikshu envoy couldn't help but be attracted to the idea and sighed, "What a fragrant smell! ”
After entering the palace, the monk envoy had a certain yearning for the imperial power of Jiangbei, and just smelling the fragrance of this rice, he felt that it would be delicious.
And when Qianya smelled this, she reacted immediately, and couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth, "It must be the meal made by my sister in early summer!" ”
She will never forget such a fragrance for the rest of her life.
Didn't she just be attracted by this fragrance at the beginning, and met Li Chuxia and others?
Hearing this, a smile appeared in Baili Yunzheng's eyes.
It is indeed from the hands of early summer.
Thinking of this, he ate a little more.
Qian Ya looked at Baili Yunzheng gobbling up beside her, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You eat slowly......"
The two of them were so close that they fell into Li Chuxia's eyes, and there was another dull pain.
And Yan Ruoxi, who was sitting at the top, looked at the appetizer served in front of him, and suddenly felt that he had miscalculated.
She seems to have given Li Chuxia a chance to be in the limelight.
No, she had to figure out a way.
After finding a way to come out of the main hall, Yan Ruoxi saw that the people in the imperial dining room outside were bringing the meals one after another, and she had a plan.
She beckoned to the personal palace maid beside her, and secretly stuffed a pack of medicinal powder to the palace maid, "You follow the people in the imperial dining room and put this medicinal powder in Princess Qianya's meal." ”
If it is poisoned at will, it will not be targeted.
But if Qianya had an accident, coupled with her seemingly inadvertent nudge, Li Chuxia's charges would be confirmed.
The motive is also very simple, because Qianya robbed her man, resentful, and waited for an opportunity to retaliate.
Thinking of this, Yan Ruoxi became proud.
But she never expected that just when she thought that this thing could be done without realizing it, Lang Yue, who suddenly came out to relax, saw this scene.
Lang Yue originally felt that the hall was a little stuffy, and came out to breathe, but just happened to catch a glimpse of Yan Ruoxi pulling the palace maid to hide aside, and felt that something was wrong, so she followed over to take a look.
Knowing Yan Ruoxi's actions, Lang Yue couldn't help but smile slightly, and quietly turned around and left.
"Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, you can naturally get the benefits of the fisherman." Lang Yue mentioned it at the corner of his eyes, and he was full of elegance.
