Chapter 444: Banquet for Guests
After the canonization ceremony was over, Zhao Qingyan followed Wen Qiao and left. The prince stood on the tower on the side and watched the figures of the two people gradually leaving, and there was a trace of nostalgia in his expression.
He immediately came back to his senses and raised his hand to beckon a eunuch over, "It's not an exaggeration for this Zhao Qingyan to say that she is a peerless beauty, what is her relationship with Wen Qiao?" The two of them walked so close. I want to get this beauty, you know what I mean? ”
When the eunuch heard that the prince wanted to marry Zhao Qingyan as a concubine, he immediately knelt down in shock and said, "Your Royal Highness the prince, you can't do it!" The county lord of Qingyan has already married Lord Wen, and the two of them are Qin Se and Ming. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think twice! ”
"Already married? There is nothing that this prince wants to get, and there is nothing he can't get! The prince looked at the two figures that had disappeared, and his eyes became vicious. Isn't it just a woman, how could he not get it, and he is also a peerless beauty, how could he let go easily.
The eunuch had already knelt on the ground and trembled with fright, for fear that he would be pulled down by the prince and cut down if he said the wrong word.
"Say, what should I do next? This prince can't leave the palace when he has nothing to do, so I won't see smoke. Hurry up and find a way to come out, or I'll have your head fall to the ground! The prince glared at him fiercely.
A eunuch who had been staying by the prince's side for a long time next to him turned his head and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the lower officials have a good method, but I don't know if the prince is willing to listen?"
"You say yes!" As soon as the prince heard that there was a way, his expression immediately became a little excited, and he motioned for the eunuch to speak quickly.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might as well set up a banquet in the palace and invite the scheming nobles of all sizes in the palace to come here to enjoy the flowers and listen to the music...... But be sure to invite Lord Wen, otherwise Lord Qingyan will definitely be suspicious. Xia Guan heard that there were no rumors about the relationship between these two in private, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so handsome and mighty that a girl would be attracted. The eunuch said.
As soon as he heard this method, the prince immediately beat his hands and then ordered the two eunuchs to do this, and when he saw that the two eunuchs were leaving, he immediately stopped them and said: "Wait a minute, you must invite more people, and that Wen Qiao is also invited." Let them come, and say that it is the prince's request! ”
As soon as he returned to the mansion, there was no half-pillar of incense, and the news came that the prince invited Zhao Qingyan and Wen Qiao to go to the palace for a banquet in a few days.
Wen Qiao held the invitation in his hand and frowned tightly and said, "What kind of tricks is this prince playing?"
Zhao Qingyan didn't know what the prince wanted to do, she held a teapot in her hand and poured Wen Qiao a cup of Biluochun. After drinking it, Wen Qiao's face looked a little better, not as mad as he was just now.
"The crown prince, after all, is a powerful man and the next emperor, how dare we not listen to what he says. Besides, didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invite you to go? Don't worry, I'm in charge of everything. Zhao Qingyan slowly took a sip of tea and said slowly, as if he didn't care about this matter.
"You're not worried at all, who knows if the prince has any thoughts about you!" Wen Qiao slammed the teacup in his hand on the table with some anger, Zhao Qingyan felt a little funny, she had never seen Wen Qiao like this.
Zhao Qingyan said soothingly: "You just think too much, the prince is measured, and I am also measured." Besides, I'm already married to you, so I can't put my heart on someone else's body. Do you understand? ”
Emotionally, both of them are very mature, but Wen Qiao is a large vinegar jar, as long as a man is close to her, he can immediately become a large-scale vinegar scene.
As soon as Wen Qiao heard this, he nodded reluctantly and agreed to go to the palace with her for a banquet.
Time passed very quickly, and it was the day to go to the palace to attend the banquet, Zhao Qingyan chose a very plain dress so that she didn't look particularly eye-catching, but her peerless face outlined a different kind of beauty and stunning.
The two got into the carriage together and came to the gate of the palace, Wen Qiao took Zhao Qingyan's hand and whispered in his ear: "Qingyan must follow me closely, don't walk around alone." You can't guess the thoughts of the people in this palace, especially the prince. ”
"Don't worry, I know." Wen Qingyan patted him with her other hand soothingly, and then followed Wen Qiao in.
The prince stood aside and watched the intimate movements of the two people, and his heart was even more unhappy, he said to a eunuch next to him: "Hurry up and find a way to take Wen Qiao away, he has been here, how can I talk to the beauty?" ”
The two sat in the most inconspicuous corner of the banquet, tasting the tea on the table and feeling a little comfortable. But the beauty was broken.
"General Wen, there is something important in the barracks! Please come along. Wen Qiao's men in the military camp came to Wen Qiao's side and said.
Wen Qiao frowned and said impatiently, "What's the matter?" I'm attending a banquet in the palace, and the people in the barracks don't know about it. ”
The subordinate said with some embarrassment: "The barracks didn't say anything for the time being, just said that it was a big deal, I hope the general will hurry up and won't delay too long!" Besides, Madame is still here. ”
Wen Qiao looked at Zhao Qingyan a little helplessly and said, "Qingyan must stay here and wait for me to come back, no matter what kind of person tells you to go, don't go." Just stay here, okay? ”
Zhao Qingyan nodded, gently pushed Wen Qiao and said, "Hurry up, I know everything, you go and see what is so urgent in the barracks, if it is delayed, it will not be good."
Wen Qiao nodded and followed his subordinates away, Zhao Qingyan looked up and turned around, there were no acquaintances next to him, all the dignitaries and nobles in the palace came, and they all wore gold and silver, and they didn't look extravagant. Zhao Qingyan had no choice but to give up, go up to talk, sit in the seat and eat pastries.
After a while, a palace maid came to Zhao Qingyan's side and said, "Lord Qingyan, our prince is invited."
Zhao Qingyan looked at the direction of the palace maid's finger, and the prince stood under the tree and looked at Zhao Qingyan with obsessive eyes. A woman's seventh sense has always been the most accurate, and Zhao Qingyan learned that this prince was uneasy and kind to him at first glance.
But she didn't leave here now, so she had to pat the dust on her skirt and walked to the prince's side, Wen Qiao said that she would definitely come back. All she could do now was stall for Wen Qiao to come back.
"Lord Qingyan, today it looks more beautiful than being canonized." The prince's hand touched it excitedly, but Zhao Qingyan subtly dodged it sideways, and the prince looked a little embarrassed when he saw this.
Zhao Qingyan pretended to be embarrassed and smiled: "I praised the prince, there are so many warblers and Yanyan in this palace today, His Royal Highness the prince should pay attention to them."
The prince shook his head, and he was not annoyed when he heard her words, but his eyes were more affectionate, and Zhao Qingyan had goosebumps all over his body. "There's no way, this prince already has someone in his heart, so he can't forget it."
