Chapter 209: Adopted as a Righteous Daughter
For all this, Xiao Chengxi didn't care about it anymore, he didn't care about those words at all, in short, the people here have no sympathy, only viciousness!
"Xiao Chengxi!" At the moment, only Ying Concubine is the most advanced, only because she is currently pregnant with a dragon son, she has no fear, seeing Xiao Chengxi appear like this, she feels very uncomfortable, "This is also the place where you can come, you collided with the emperor's dragon son, your few lives are not enough to pay!" ”
Ying Concubine had already named Xiao Chengxi, Xiao Chengxi naturally wouldn't be so hiding anymore, raised her head, and looked at Ying Concubine lightly: "Ying Concubine Niangniang, do you think Cheng Xi is interested in such a banquet, if it weren't for the emperor's decree, Cheng Xi wouldn't have come here!" There was endless disdain in her tone, even if the emperor ordered her to come in person, she still didn't take this as a favor, besides, at present, whether it was a blessing or a curse, she was not sure, if it weren't for her mother and cousin in the hands of the emperor, she might not have come here so obediently, always have to ask for an understanding!
Concubine Ying has nothing to say at the moment, her reliance is just the emperor's favor, but now, Xiao Chengxi is coming by order!
"Princess Chengxi, hurry up and get into the table!" When the atmosphere was very tense, the prince and his party appeared at the door of the Yamato Hall and said to Xiao Chengxi, who was still standing there.
The prince spoke, and a little palace maid immediately came next to him, leading Xiao Chengxi to Xiao Chengxi's seat, but when Xiao Chengxi sat down, everyone found out that Xiao Chengxi's position was actually set by the queen's side!
This was impossible before, seeing such a scene, even the crown prince and the third prince were a little surprised, the third prince Murong Yan deliberately glanced at the prince with a meaningful look, the prince shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, he really didn't know anything, Murong Yan naturally couldn't read any information from the prince's face.
Xiao Chengxi's location is very special, there has never been such a setting for previous banquets!
And Xiao Chengxi was also shocked to find that this was not a separate position, because this was a double setting, which made Xiao Chengxi very surprised, and he didn't know what the Emperor was going to do!
Just when people were puzzled, a careless figure appeared beside Xiao Chengxi with a very excited shout: "Chengxi, I didn't expect to see you here!" ”
"His Highness the Nine!" Xiao Chengxi only felt that he was full of black lines, on such an occasion, this Nine Emperor Princes didn't know how to converge at all, "The emperor is coming soon, His Royal Highness the Nine is still seated!" Xiao Chengxi coaxed the Nine Emperor Princes and wanted to stand up and send the Nine Emperor Princes to the table.
But at this time, Concubine Chang, the mother of the Nine Emperor Princes, called out in a very cold voice: "Xiang'er! ”
Hearing the queen mother's call, the Nine Emperor Princes seemed to be very scared, and hurriedly scratched the back of his head and said to Xiao Chengxi: "Chengxi, it's good for you to come out, wait for my queen mother to dissipate her anger, and then play with you!" ”
Xiao Chengxi shook his head helplessly, but this heart was stable.
With the arrival of people one after another, they all seemed to notice Xiao Chengxi's special position, but everyone was just whispering in private, because it must have been deliberately arranged by Emperor Xiao, otherwise, who would have the courage to put a sensitive person like Xiao Chengxi in that position!
Only Concubine Ying, frowning slightly, couldn't guess what this emperor was going to do!
The people gradually arrived, and the last one to appear at the door was Murong Yixuan, the Seventh Prince!
Xiao Chengxi saw Murong Yixuan who appeared at the door, her heart was like being grabbed by a hand, which made her breathing hard, and after careful calculation, she hadn't seen it for more than ten days, but Xiao Chengxi actually felt that it seemed that he hadn't seen this face for a long time, looking at the very familiar handsome face, Xiao Chengxi's first feeling was that he was a little haggard and a little tired! Xiao Chengxi couldn't help but make such an exclamation.
But when Murong Yixuan's gaze was opposite to her, there was still a touch of fierceness in his eyes, and his whole face was covered with a layer of frost, which made Xiao Chengxi tremble from the bottom of his heart, he still hated himself after all, and he still couldn't let go of the family affection that blood was thicker than water, but this was him, otherwise, he would not fight with his life, and in order to take revenge, he would not hesitate to cultivate the Nine Heart Recipe that would cause him endless backlash!
Xiao Chengxi just silently recalled all the past with him in her heart, maybe today is a break, but as long as she waits for her relatives to be safe, she will come back to face his hatred no matter what, wait for me, Xiao Chengxi just said to the man in front of her in her heart, over and over again.
"Humph!" When Xiao Chengxi was still a little fugue, Murong Yixuan snorted coldly, and walked to his seat, Xia Chunan, who was already waiting there, hurriedly wrapped his arms around Murong Yixuan, but she could feel that Murong Yixuan's whole body exuded a sense of anger, which made Xia Chunan can't help but look at Xiao Chengxi with a very vicious gaze.
But Murong Yixuan knew that tonight's banquet was by no means that simple!
In the end, the emperor and the queen arrived at the same time.
Ruoda's palace was quiet at this time, and it was simply silent, only the candle flame that danced on the other side made a slight crackling sound.
The queen followed the emperor and sat in the middle position, the emperor's eyes swept over Xiao Chengxi, and he saw Xiao Chengxi sitting there lightly, so he glanced at the queen, it seemed that the two of them had reached some kind of consensus!
His eyes had never left the Seventh Prince of the Emperor of the Night, and the eye contact between the emperor and the queen was naturally in full view of him, and Murong Yixuan couldn't help but tightly put away his palm!
The seventh prince Murong Yixuan didn't notice any changes in Xia Chunan around him at all, just because of the words of Emperor Xiao just now, which made him angry, and now it seems that Emperor Xiao has already had some kind of tacit understanding with the queen, but the woman next to him snorted softly, which attracted Murong Yixuan's attention, it turned out that Murong Yixuan had already clenched the little hand of the princess because he didn't pay attention.
Emperor Xiao glanced at the Seventh Prince meaningfully, then glanced at all the people below, and said calmly: "Everyone, at the beginning of the new year, today's banquet is full of people close to me, it can be called a family banquet, but it is also a wedding banquet!" ”
The few words of the Emperor immediately aroused people's interest, why can it be called a wedding banquet? ! But everyone here, not a single stupid person, has noticed Xiao Chengxi's particularity, I really don't know, for this Xiao Chengxi, this unworthy princess who was beaten into the cold palace, what Emperor Qingxiao will do today!
Xiao Chengxi just lowered her head, at this moment, she was just a fish to be slaughtered, and she didn't have the ability to influence the situation, so she could only prick up her ears and listen!
Emperor Xiao has always been a calm monarch, although people really can't figure out what is going on in their hearts, but no one dares to ask, Emperor Xiao has also been selling Guanzi, and it seems that he didn't notice Xiao Chengxi at all, but looked at the Nine Emperor Princes with that loving gaze.
"I want to give a decree to my Nine Emperor Sons today!" Emperor Xiao looked at the Nine Emperors and said, he didn't care about people's curiosity at all.
Obviously, people don't pay much attention to the words of the Emperor Xiao, the Emperor has always taken care of the Nine Emperors for no reason, besides, in the banquet of the past few days, as long as the Nine Emperors are there, the Emperor will care for the Nine Emperors first, people just heard that the Nine Emperors have been a little unwell recently, and after the Spring Festival, they may have to go outside the palace to recuperate, but people just heard this, and no one took it to heart.
The Nine Emperor Sons understood that their father had called his name, and his playful expression was much more restrained, and he looked at his father seriously.
Emperor Xiao nodded slightly: "Today, everyone here testifies that in the future, no matter who I give my country to, you must take care of Murong Xiang, the Nine Emperor Princes, no matter what he wants, you must meet his wishes, and you must not let the Nine Emperor Princes be wronged!" ”
The eunuch who drafted the decree on one side had already written the decree and handed it to Emperor Xiao's hand, and in full view of everyone, Emperor Xiao pressed the jade seal heavily on the holy decree!
Such a grand ceremony made people a little surprised, but what can be done with such a holy decree, maybe this is another means for Emperor Xiao to make the Nine Emperors happy, after everyone sighed, no one cared.
And the Nine Emperor Princes didn't understand the deep meaning of the holy decree, so they just happily held the holy decree in their hands, but the concubine Chang next to the Nine Emperor Princes stood up and thanked the Nine Emperor Princes for the Night Emperor.
People's interest is still speculating, what is the happy event that Emperor Xiaohuang said, and what does it have to do with Xiao Chengxi, who is now sitting in the focus of people's eyes, and Emperor Xiaohuang looked at it almost the same, so he no longer deliberately hung everyone's appetite, and slowly spoke: "The queen loves Xiao Chengxi very much, and she mentioned it to me and wants to be accepted as a righteous daughter." ”
It's just a very simple sentence, so that Xiao Chengxi and everyone present couldn't help but raise their heads in surprise, and they all turned their puzzled eyes to Emperor Xiao, although Xiao Chengxi had already received the holy decree and was named a princess, this is just a name, can you really think that someone treats her as a daughter, but she never thought that it was the queen who wanted to accept herself as a righteous daughter!
But in an instant, Xiao Chengxi felt that it was a little unlikely, the queen didn't want to meddle in her own affairs, but now, why is it unusual, she actually wants to accept herself as a righteous daughter!?
Different from everyone's surprised gaze, it was Murong Yixuan, those two gazes, like flames, were also turning over the river and the sea in his heart, before the banquet, Emperor Xiao looked for him, just to let him have this preparation, not to discuss with him, but it was imperative, but he didn't understand what the real purpose of his father, who had always been very shrewd, this time!
However, Murong Yixuan clearly knew that what made him so uncalm was because after Emperor Xiaohuang's words, he no longer had anything to do with Xiao Chengxi! <
