Everything went according to schedule, and for the queen's birthday banquet, the king sent someone to decorate the hall with a new look.

Those who came to the banquet were all ministers with status, including Marquis Hua and Chen Shangshu, and their seats were set up under the seats of the king and queen, closest to the seats of the king and queen.

At the beginning of the banquet, it was all the courtiers who congratulated the queen together, and then they all offered congratulatory gifts, Gu Xiaonuan didn't have the heart to look at these, she was a little nervous, she knew that tonight was extraordinary.

After the rituals were completed, the courtiers took their seats and began to serve the dishes and drinks on the feast.

Gu Xiaonuan's eyes glanced slightly over the seat of the Marquis Hua, and saw that he had a murderous face and a fierce gaze staring at him.

It was the first time for Gu Xiaonuan to be so formal, and when he saw this Hou Ye who had never been able to tolerate him so closely, he saw that his eyes were sharp, with a hint of murderous aura, his skin was a little dark, he didn't smile, and he had a cold face.

Gu Xiaonuan glanced at him slightly and turned his head, ignoring his eyes that seemed to kill him at this time.

It seems that everyone is deposited in the joy of the queen's birthday, and the officials toast each other, talking and laughing. Some people couldn't sit still and left as soon as the feast was over. There are also people who drink sullen wine alone, and they just want to suppress the fire of hatred with glass of strong wine, but the more they drink, the more it seems that the anger cannot be suppressed.

In the middle of the banquet, the Marquis suddenly staggered and stood up with a wine glass, and when he came to toast from the king, he pulled the queen to raise the wine glass to toast him.

It's just that King Li didn't expect it, and just when he pulled the queen to get up to toast, Hua Hou Ye suddenly poured the wine in the cup towards Gu Xiaonuan.

Without any defense, the glass of wine was poured on Gu Xiaonuan's face, and all the singing and dancing, all the music, and everything in the hall stopped at this moment in an instant.

Those ministers who raised their glasses to toast, holding wine glasses in their hands, also stood stiffly in place, looking at this shocking scene, they didn't dare to move.

Looking at the wine splashed on Gu Xiaonuan's face, King Li's anger suddenly burned out, and he glared at Hua Hou Ye and said, "Hou Ye, do you know what you are doing?" ”

"The demon girl, the demon girl, the demon girl should be killed." He still stared at Gu Xiaonuan, with a murderous look on his face, and said in a fierce tone.

Gong E, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly wiped off the wine that had been splashed on her face, and Gu Xiaonuan looked at Hua Hou Ye and smiled reluctantly, "Hou Ye has drunk too much." He pulled away from the king again, "The concubine is fine, the Hou Ye has drunk too much, the king must not worry about the Hou Ye." ”

As soon as Gu Xiaonuan's words fell, Hua Hou Ye snorted coldly, glared at Gu Xiaonuan with murderous eyes, and said, "Pretentiously, this trick is useless to me, demon girl, today the old man will eliminate the harm for the people and kill you, the demon girl." After that, he snatched the sword of a guard next to him and slashed at Gu Xiaonuan.

Although he is old, after all, he has also been a person who has fought on the battlefield, and it is still a piece of cake for killing a person.

"Protect the queen, protect the queen......."

In an instant, the hall was in chaos, and the king shouted to the guards beside him, and the guards rushed up to protect the queen.

But Hua Hou Ye was determined to kill the queen tonight, and at this time, he drank again, so he didn't care about anything and wanted to kill the queen.

Although those guards were also extremely fast, the long sword in his hand still slashed Gu Xiaonuan's shoulder, and Gu Xiaonuan tripped and fell to the ground when he was dodging back.

Holding his shoulders, blood still flowed out of his fingers, but when he was about to stab the second sword, a figure flashed quickly, waving the long sword in his hand to pick away the long sword he stabbed.

That person and Hua Hou Ye fought in the main hall, suppressed Hua Hou Ye a few moves, and the guards also took advantage of the situation, looking thrilling. Most of the civil officials in the court were all shrunk aside and hid at this time.

Li Wang helped Gu Xiaonuan up, looked at her injured arm, blood spilled from her fingers, and hurriedly shouted for Imperial Doctor Xuan.

"Ah Yao, how is it?" It was rare for King Liwang to show such a concerned look.

Gu Xiaonuan shook her head, and when she turned around to look at the main hall, Hua Hou Ye had been held down by many guards, and it happened that the person who had saved her just now wanted to escape, she couldn't see who it was with her head covered and her face covered, Gu Xiaonuan saw it and shouted, "Stop her." ”

Another group of guards guarding the door rushed forward and stopped the man who was about to escape, although he was good, but he was outnumbered, and after a few tricks with the guards, he was stopped and detained.

Looking at the Hua Hou Ye who was detained in the main hall at this moment, he said angrily from the king, "Hou Ye is really bold, he is not disrespectful on weekdays, and he contradicts this king, this king respects Hou Ye is an old minister, and he doesn't care too much, but today he openly assassinated the queen." ”

"Demon girl, demon girl, king, you are deceived by this demon girl, you take a good look at this demon girl next to you, murdering the concubine, but hiding from the world, I am afraid that even the king and you have been deceived by this demon girl." The detained Hua Hou Ye glared at Gu Xiaonuan and said murderously.

Hearing about the murder of the concubine, the king felt slightly, I am afraid that the marquis of Hua knows something.

He reluctantly smiled and said, "What is the plot to kill the concubine, the Hou Ye has drunk too much wine, and he is talking nonsense." ”

After sneering twice, Marquis Hua said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, don't deceive the old minister, the old minister's daughter, Jiao Yue, is not seriously ill at all, she is long gone, and she was killed by this demon girl." ”

Liwang didn't expect this news to be known by Hua Houye so soon, and it wasn't good to say anything for a while. Fortunately, at this time, Gu Xiaonuan behind him covered his arms and got up and said, "Master Hou, don't you have some misunderstanding about me, I have a very good relationship with Sister An, why should I hurt her." ”

As soon as he heard Gu Xiaonuan say this, Hua Hou Ye sneered and said, "You demon girl, pampered and arrogant, relying on the king's love for you, you can't tolerate anyone in your eyes, since you have been away from the country for three years, you are the only one in the king's harem, and finally the king has a new concubine, you can't tolerate her for a moment, kill her, her heart can be ruthless, her heart is poisonous, it is really unheard of, you are not a demon girl, what are you." ”

Someone has begun to communicate with their eyes, as if to say, that's it, it's been three years, and the king didn't accept a concubine, just because she was arrogant, ruthless, unreasonable, and vicious.

Gu Xiaonuan understood what they meant, and couldn't help but say in her heart, "Obviously, the victim is Gong Yuyao, but as a result, when I came to you, I pushed everything on her." ”

King Liwang knew the inside story of this, and knew that Concubine An died at his own hands, seeing that Gu Xiaonuan was still speaking at this time, he couldn't bear it, so he stood up and said, "Concubine An's matter is because she fell ill after giving birth, and the imperial doctor couldn't cure it by all means, and it has nothing to do with the queen." I originally planned not to talk about this matter first, for fear that you would not be able to accept it when you are old, but now that someone is pushing this spearhead on the queen's head, this king must stand up and explain the real situation. ”

Hua Hou Ye obviously didn't believe it, and snorted coldly twice, "The king was confused by this demon girl, so he believed in her everything." If this continues, the country will be destroyed in the hands of this demon girl. ”
