Joking
There are many rules in the deep palace, and Jing Li naturally understands, but these slaves and maids are too incomprehensible.
"What is this! So heavy! Jing Li sat down in front of the dressing table and complained.
But no matter how this girl complains, the palace maids still put on luxurious jewelry for Jing Li, Jing Li puffed out her mouth and weighed the heavy jade and gold utensils on her body, these palace people actually framed themselves with some trivial sections, so many jewelry hanging on their bodies Aren't they tired?
I said...... It's almost there......" Jing Li immediately stopped the hand of the palace maid on the side.
Seeing this, a look of embarrassment appeared on the palace maid's face, and she said, "Girl, this is the rule of the banquet in the Qi Palace, and Su Huan Palace also specially instructed us to take good care of the girls." ”
Jing Li didn't love to embarrass them, after all, they were just acting on orders, and in desperation, they had to obediently let them decorate, who told her to be born soft.

The east hall of Qi Palace is the residence where Wen Dong rests. This is the mansion specially selected for him by the prince of Nanqi, and its name is Zhihua Palace.
"Pavilion Lord Wen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting for you outside the door......" A palace maid came to Wen Dong to report.
Wen Dong was reading the Nanqi collection of books at the moment, and when he heard that the prince was visiting, he put down the book and opened his sleeves and went out to greet him.
Wen Dongfang went out, and Prince Lingqu was already waiting here.
"I've seen His Highness Lingqu." Wen Dong saluted.
Prince Lingqu still gave people a dignified and refreshing meaning as usual, he stepped forward and raised Wen Dong's hand, and said, "Pavilion Master Wen is still used to this residence?" ”
"Your Highness has a heart, Wen Dong is very good here."
Prince Lingqu naturally didn't come to ask for warmth this time, Wen Dong naturally understood, so he simply got straight to the point and asked, "What is the matter with His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
Prince Lingqu turned around with a smile in his eyes and asked, "Did Lord Wen Ge encounter anything strange when he entered the city today?" ”
Wen Dong thought about it and said, "Before we entered the palace, there was a child singing a ballad in front of the palace gate, but His Highness wants to ask about this?" ”
Prince Lingqu nodded knowingly, and said, "Pavilion Master Wen is a clear-eyed person, and I also know that the person singing that ballad is me, what does Pavilion Lord Wen think?" ”
Of course, Wen Dong understands that the ballad he heard today is sung for the Prince of Lingqu, this ballad is popular in the city, and the mastermind behind this must want to use this to disturb the government in the palace of Nanqi, after all, what Qingyu Shushu said is not the Prince of Lingqu, and now it is when the monarch of Nanqi is lacking, and he is about to establish a new monarch, so there are such disrespectful words at that time, I am afraid that there should be chaos in this palace again.
Wen Dong raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Your Highness, what does this ballad mean?" Rumors? Or the other......"
Prince Lingqu shook his head for a moment and said, "Otherwise, someone just used this ballad to put a mask on me." ”
Prince Lingqu was silent for a long time, and then walked to Wen Dong's side and said, "This person who sings just wants to see the chaos in the Qi Palace, that's all......"
Wen Dong has always acted cautiously, and he also understands that Prince Lingqu is also a person full of scheming, and who doesn't have a little thought in his belly who lives deep in the inner palace.
"What does the prince mean by telling me about this?" Wen Dong asked with his fists clenched.
Prince Lingqu waved his hand freely and turned away, stood next to the horse, turned around and said, "There is no him, I hope that the Lord of the Wen Pavilion will not stir up this troubled water." ”
Wen Dong stood outside the gate of the mansion, watching Prince Lingqu drive away, and he also understood the meaning of His Royal Highness the Prince-plain clothes are not stained with dust.
"Pavilion Master Wen, the night banquet in the palace will start soon, please follow me into the palace." The maid on the side stood behind Wen Dong and reminded.
"Okay, let's go." Wen Dong turned and left.
。
。
。
The night banquet in the palace began immediately, and Nan Qi Jun sat down earlier than the main seat, and Wen Dongban Jiuge then also sat down in the right column.
At this time, the prince of Lingqu outside the hall and Heliansheng arrived outside the palace at the same time, and the two looked at each other and walked into the seats together, both of them were princes of the two countries, and the aura of the two was completely different, Heliansheng was dignified and heroic, and Chen Lingqu was elegant and refined.
"Father, king, and son are late." The Lingtu Jun outside the hall said. This person is the second prince of Nanqi, Wen Dong had fought with him before, acted ruthlessly, and was extraordinary.
The civil and military officials and the distinguished guests of Phoenix Yu were all dressed in gorgeous clothes to enter the banquet, but he entered in armor.
"Lord Wen Pavilion Master Ban Pavilion Master, this is the second prince of Southern Qi - Lingtu Jun." Nan Qi Junshang introduced the two.
Wen Dong looked at the Southern Qi Jun, his white beard was on his face, he was old, and he exuded a kind of imperial calmness and sophistication. Wen Dong nodded with a smile, and then faced Lingtujun, and the two looked at each other in an indescribable silence.
"The lord of Dongran has arrived." Outside the hall is another Alluring woman, her purple robe is wide and her waist is tied, her figure is graceful, and her face is gentle, like the autumn moon and flat water.
"I've seen my father~" She bowed down and asked for a salute.
Nan Qi Jun nodded and said, "Take a seat......
The county lord of Dongran turned around and looked at Helian Sheng on the table, she walked to Helian Sheng in small steps and sat down next to his seat.
"You must be the second prince of Northern Chu, right?" The county lord of Donglang poked Helian Sheng's shoulder and asked.
Helian Sheng's elegant eyebrows gathered slightly, and his eyes looked at the county lord of Dongran like water, and said, "Exactly." ”
Shen Qingdao, who was sitting on the other side, saw this situation clearly, and he understood that wherever he went with Helian Sheng's current identity would be eye-catching.
Ma Thanos and Yu Wenlin are several of them disciples of Huang Yu, and they took their seats behind the banquet, and the two looked at the Dongran County Lord who was facing Helian Sheng in front of them, and the two chatted, "Do you think this county lord is interested in our big ginger?"
Yu Wenlin raised his wine and said, "I think it's the same." ”
Just when the atmosphere in the hall was harmonious, Jing Li was dressed in red like a nine-day holy fire, and the gorgeous ornaments were full of brilliance, although she had a copper feather mask on her face, but through the eyes of the water spirit, people knew that this woman had an extraordinary appearance, Jing Li's mouth smiled like a wisp of fairy flow into the palace, which instantly attracted the attention of everyone present, or never saw Xiao Lizi's amazing makeup, Helian Sheng also stopped his gaze. Jing Li followed the etiquette taught to her by the palace maid, straightened her waist, and walked slowly with even steps. After standing in front of Nan Qi Jun, he said, "Little Female Phoenix Feather Disciple of the Main Pavilion - Jing Li." ”
Hearing this name, Nan Qi Junshang's expression suddenly sank, and he raised his hand and said, "Please ......."
Seeing this, Jing Li took a deep breath and shouted with his head down, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Then he turned around, shook his red sleeves, and ran to his seat with small steps.
The gap between the changes between the previous and the latter is really huge, and many civil and military officials laughed, "What an interesting girl, hahaha!" ”
"You are a disciple of the Phoenix Feather Pavilion?" Nan Qi Junshang looked at Jing Li in disbelief and asked.
Seeing this, Wen Dong rushed in front of Jing Li and said, "Exactly, this girl is my disciple of the Phoenix Feather Pavilion." ”
"What Pavilion Master Wen said is good, this girl is a disciple of the Phoenix Feather Pavilion." Shen Qingdao also said.
When the two princes of Nanqi heard this, they all set their eyes on Jing Li, and they were either amazed by this girl or curious about her identity, and they couldn't take their eyes off it.
"Poof! Both of my royal brothers are about to see God. The county lord covered his mouth and laughed.
Helian Sheng looked at the mirror in front of her, if it was her, she couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
"Your Excellency, today Guogong is in poor health and it is inconvenient to go to the banquet." The eunuch on the side said.
The lord of the kingdom put his hands down on his knees and said, "Then let's have a feast!" ”
Then outside the hall walked into a troupe of operas, all seventeen. The first time Jing Li saw a dance performance, he was immediately taken away from his gaze, and he didn't even eat the delicacies on the table.
"Bang, knock, knock, knock!" Seventeen dancers hold small drums and tread as they slap as if in a solemn ceremony.
It's just that what Jing Li doesn't understand is that these people are all wearing ancient blue masks, and only bright red lips are exposed.
They formed a group, and sixteen dancers bent back around a teenager in the middle, like a blooming flower.
Shen Qingdao sat on the seat and felt uneasy about the dance in front of him, their dance steps were like a kind of oppression, stifling his every heartbeat.
"Do you think this young man is a little familiar?" Ban Jiu Ge attached his ear to Wen Dong's side, and he was referring to the young man in the middle of the dance troupe.
Wen Dong raised his sleeves, lowered his head, drank the warm wine in his hand, covered his eyes, and whispered, "We have seen this wave of people outside the city. ”
Ban Jiu Ge suddenly seemed to be awakened, he turned to look at Wen Dong with wide eyes, and said, "You mean they ......"
Before Ban Jiu Ge could speak, Wen Dong stretched out his hand to stop what he was about to say, and said, "Don't make a noise yet." ”
Jing Li beside Wen Dong didn't pay much attention, she was already completely attracted by the dancing postures of these people. But what made Jing Li curious was that she also felt that the young man in the center of the troupe was familiar, although she hadn't seen his face, but from the physical point of view, she always felt that she had seen this person somewhere.
"According to the sunshine in all directions, Hao Hao Qingyun opens the Taishi ......" The young man in the middle pursed his lips and said in a playful manner, with a soft body and a twisted finger singing.
"This is the green tone of our Southern Qi, do Your Highness like it?" The county lord of Dongran glanced at Helian Sheng and asked.
Helian Sheng naturally didn't dare to confide in half of the falsehood, saying, "This song makes people feel oppressed, I don't know why it's ......"
"That's right, the tone of the Qing rhetoric is about the founding of the first emperor of my Southern Qi Dynasty, which is naturally dignified and solemn, which makes people admire and surrender." The county lord of Dongran said proudly.
Helian Sheng didn't mean that, he put down the wine bottle and said, "I mean this dancer......"
The county lord of Dongran was speechless for a moment, she raised her eyes and looked, the dancers in this hall should be in a neat pace with the drums in their hands, like a sense of threat to march into the oppressive realm, and then the county lord of Dongran looked at Helian Sheng and said, "Indeed, ......"
Jing Li rested her cheeks on the table, she carefully looked through the mask at the dancing boy in the center, suddenly their dance steps were interrupted for a moment, the young man spread his arms and climbed up, he suddenly turned his face to stare at Jing Li, and their eyes met like this.
Jing Li's mind suddenly remembered the eyes of this young man, it was the young man who was singing that strange tune outside the city!
"Whew!" The young man turned around and threw out a short knife, and the cold light reflected on the mirror's eyes, like a night soul flashing in the dark night.
Wen Dong sat next to Jing Li, and when he saw this, he immediately slapped the wine glass on the table, and with a sudden push of his palm, the wine bottle collided with the short knife, making a violent crisp sound, "Ping-pong!" ”
Only then did His Highness's guards react and shouted, "It's not good to have assassins!" Protect Your Majesty! Under the banquet, all the civil and military officials jumped up from their seats in a panic.
The dancers in the middle of the hall were suddenly surrounded by the guards outside the door, but the amazing thing was that they did not resist at all, and continued to dance their strange and solemn dance steps, and when the dance stopped, the masked young man in the middle sneered at the mirror, and he laughed wantonly on his back, "Hahahaha!" Aha! ”
Nan Qi Jun may have seen a lot of such a scene, sat on the seat with a calm face, he raised his hand and said, "Take it down......"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The guards took the men down after receiving the order.
And Wen Dong's beautiful interception made the two princes on the other side feel uneasy, for them, Wen Dong's strength has always made them inscrutable, which makes Nan Qi have a deeper wariness of Huang Yu.
"Lord Wen is so skilled, otherwise I would be to blame today, Miss Jingli is frightened......" Nan Qijun said.
"Dare to ask your lord, what is the dance just now?" Wen Dong got up and raised his sleeves and asked.
Nanqi Jun didn't mind and said, "This is my Nanqi's green tone......"
"Qing Ci ......" Wen Dong began to fall into deep thought.
