Chapter Seventy-Two: Empress Yanchen

Two days later, Empress Murong's birthday came, and the whole country celebrated. The ladies of the Marquis of Zhongyong got up from bed early, dressed up, and prepared to participate in this annual feast.

When the carriage walks on the street, you can feel the festive atmosphere around the road, and because all the nobles in the capital have been dispatched, the road is going very slowly today.

Xiao Yijing is a quick-tempered person, and she has long been impatient to lift the curtain and probe out to look at it many times, and she keeps saying urging words in her mouth.

In the end, it was Bai Huaping's kind words and persuasion, which made her honestly stay up to the palace.

After getting out of the car, I saw that the palace gate was full of beauty, all the noble ladies and ladies who came were dressed gorgeously, and the beads on their heads were so dazzling that people's eyes were dazzled, Xiao Yiran and others quietly followed behind Bai Huaping, and came to the Baohua Palace, the place where the banquet was held, and sat down in order.

Because the two Xiao Yixian sisters framed Xiao Yiran last time and were exposed in public, when the two of them arrived this time, those good friends in the past did not come to them happily as usual, but had a feeling of avoiding them.

This situation made Xiao Yixian and Xiao Yijing couldn't help but grit their teeth, and looked at Xiao Yiran, who seemed to know nothing, with an unkind expression.

At this moment, a slight commotion suddenly erupted in the crowd, and looking at the source of the sound, it turned out to be Baili Chan coming.

The handsome and extraordinary face of the young man couldn't help but make many girls blush, biting the veil and looking at him secretly.

These reactions of theirs made Bailichan very satisfied, his waist couldn't help but straighten up a little, he squinted his eyes and looked around, and his gaze finally fell on Xiao Yixian, the two looked at each other, and Bailizan smiled softly at her.

Xiao Yixian immediately blushed, and the white painting screen sitting next to her patted her hand with satisfaction.

Xiao Yixian suppressed the excitement and shyness in her heart, and looked at Xiao Yiran beside her proudly and provocatively, but the other party looked at the food on the table intently from the moment she came over, as if the flowers around her were not as good as the plate of mung bean cakes in front of her.

This made Xiao Yixian feel like she was flattering to the blind, and she was a little displeased. He glanced at her with disdain, then withdrew his gaze.

"Your Majesty, the mother has arrived!" With a sharp paging from the eunuch, everyone knelt down.

Xiao Yiran's position is relatively high, so even if she doesn't want to, she has to kneel down to greet the emperor and queen, which makes her a little depressed: this evil feudal system!

Rui Andi and Empress Murong belatedly came: "Calm down!" The two raised their hands majestically towards the crowd.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The crowd brushed up again.

"Today is the queen's birthday, all Aiqing and his wife don't have to be formal, just have fun." Emperor Rui Andi looked down at the dense crowd below, and said in a gentle tone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Yiran couldn't help but look up at Rui Andi and the queen, only to see that Rui Andi was almost in his fifties this year, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and his head was already a little gray, but even so, the imperial majesty on his body still couldn't be underestimated.

And Queen Murong is much younger than her, she is almost in her thirties this year, and her well-maintained face has no trace of age, and she looks very gentle and dignified.

After the two sat down, they looked at the bottom and talked, and suddenly Emperor Rui'an didn't know what to say to the queen, and the queen's face suddenly bloomed with a smile and looked at him coquettishly.

"Your Majesty and Niangniang's relationship is really good!" Xiao Yiran sighed when he heard someone around him.

"That's nature! Your Majesty's feelings are well known to the whole country, otherwise Your Majesty would not have been in a hurry to make Niangniang the queen as soon as he ascended the throne. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yixian's eyes were also full of envy, and she subconsciously looked towards Baili Zhan.

Xiao Yiran couldn't help but hold his cheeks and ponder for a moment, the relationship between Emperor Rui'an and Empress Murong is so good, but why hasn't the queen come out for so many years?

When she came, Grandma Sun had talked to her more than a thousand times, and she had been babbling about Empress Murong and Emperor Rui'an, so she knew that the queen had not had a child for so many years, and she had never even been pregnant. Plus the last time Murong Liang went to Luoheng Mountain to find herbs for her, it seems that Queen Murong has some health problems, is this the reason?

Xiao Yiran raised his eyes and looked at the two people on the stage who were smiling and smiling, feeling a little strange in his heart. It seems that this Rui Andi really respects the queen, and this birthday banquet, he didn't bring out any concubines in his harem.

Murong Liang came with the queen, and she had already seen Xiao Yiran below, but because of avoiding suspicion, she never had a chance to greet her. Seeing that she finally raised her head, she hurriedly waved her hand quietly.

Because Empress Murong has no children, she has always treated Murong Liang and Murong Yuan, who were left by her brother, as her own children.

But because Murong Yuan was going to fight on the battlefield, he got together with her less and left more since he was a child. And Murong Liang grew up watching her, so she trusted her very much, and now of course her small action has not escaped the eyes of the queen.

The queen smiled: "Is there anyone you know down there?" ”

Murong Liang was startled, quickly withdrew her hand, looked around vigilantly, and saw that no one else was paying attention to them, she immediately relieved, she put her index finger to her mouth, made a silent gesture to the queen, and moved a few steps towards her: "Auntie, if you keep quiet, it will be bad if you are heard!" ”

Empress Murong looked at her eccentric niece with a smile and said, "What? What needs to be so mysterious? ”

The last time she took the Shudong Grass back, the queen also asked her where the herb came from, and Murong Liang didn't hide it from her at the time, saying that it was given to her by a good friend. So now that she asked, she didn't hide it and whispered a few words into the queen's ear.

Hearing this, a trace of surprise crossed Queen Murong's eyes, and she couldn't help but look at Xiao Yiran below, seeing that the other party had a calm temperament and looked like a down-to-earth and generous girl, she was satisfied: "Hmm." A good boy indeed. In this case, we should be grateful to others. ”

"Of course, I said thank you!" Murong Liang raised his head.

Only good friends don't care about gains and losses, Queen Murong saw that Murong Liang was not as polite to Xiao Yiran as he was with other young ladies, and she looked very trusting and casual, and her curiosity about Xiao Yiran was getting bigger and bigger.

Her niece has always been above the top, and she doesn't know what attracted her to Xiao San, so she can get her so close, she can't help but look at Xiao Yiran in the audience a few more times.
