Chapter 151: Palace Banquet (4)
Tanglin Xingluo didn't want to admit defeat, but when he saw Dongling Mo's cold face, he couldn't help but shrink his little head, stood up in front of Changsun Han and Zheng Yuxiu, and bowed in a formal manner, "Xingluo shouldn't intervene, and I hope Your Majesty and the Queen Mother will forgive." ”
Zheng Yuxiu smiled, stretched out her hand to pull Tanglin Xingluo to her side, and said angrily: "Look at how much water is so good at this little appearance, the king of the Western Regions doesn't want to be so fierce, what should I do if I frighten this little princess?" ”
A ridiculous sentence revealed the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere on the field, and Changsun Han smiled and said, "Let's watch the play first." ”
Zheng Yuxiu asked the palace maid to add a chair to Tanglin Xingluo, and let her sit beside her.
The gongs and drums began to beat on the stage, Xia Mengning sat in the back, but she was secretly surprised in her heart, she was far away from the carriage just now, but now it was only a short distance of more than ten meters, so that she could really see clearly, the appearance of the king of the Western Regions was clearly five or six points similar to Xia Zhishen.
In this way, compare the time when Xia Zhishen and the king of the Western Regions ascended the throne...... Xia Mengning bit her lip secretly, looked up in the direction of Donglin Mo, and saw the eldest grandson Yunzheng, who was sitting on the left side of the emperor, reaching out for a teacup, and a pair of obsidian-like eyes were looking over here, and the two quickly exchanged glances, and they had a bottom in each other's hearts.
The palace banquet was full of the daughters and grandsons of the kings in the capital, and now although there was a screen on the side of the seat, the surroundings of the emperor in front of them were still as usual, and for a while, many ladies secretly stretched their necks to glance over there.
Because it was a palace banquet and the presence of the king of the Western Regions, the eldest grandson Yun changed his favorite white clothes for the first time, and replaced them with a dark purple prince's formal dress, which faded away from the chic of the white clothes, and the dark purple robe became more and more manly and handsome, which made many of the daughters of everyone at the banquet blush.
Xia Mengran obviously also noticed that since Changsun Yun entered here, her eyes have not moved, but thinking that Changsun Yun has made a marriage contract with Xia Mengning, Xia Mengran couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, why, she is not inferior to Xia Mengning in terms of appearance, Xia Mengning is just more favored by her father than herself, but now her father's favorite is his aunt, does that mean that he still has a chance?
Thinking of this, Xia Mengran's face became more and more red, pinched the handkerchief in his hand, and secretly glanced at Changsun Yun's place from time to time.
Tsing Yi on the stage was babbling and singing, everyone listened to it with relish, Liu Shihan turned sideways and said softly: "Ning'er, there is something I want to ask you......"
Xia Mengning turned his face sideways and said with a smile: "You have always been very arrogant on weekdays, why are you so twisted today, what else can't you say between you and me?" ”
Liu Shihan paused and said: "That day, I went to buy a birthday gift for my father, but I met robbers on the way back, and fortunately I was rescued by a son who knows martial arts, but I don't know who he is, can you help me pay attention to him and find him......"
Speaking of the back, Liu Shihan's face was almost buried in his neck, and his voice was getting smaller and smaller.
Xia Mengning smiled and teased: "It turned out that Han'er moved her heart......"
Liu Shihan raised her head and glanced at Xia Mengning, and said, "Ning'er...... Why are you laughing at me......"
Xia Mengning shook his head, "I'm not laughing at you, but I also stay in the boudoir every day, I'm afraid I can't help much, but you relax, if you have a fate, you will meet it, the capital is so big, maybe you will meet again one day." ”
Liu Shihan blinked and sighed: "I don't have any other thoughts, I just want to thank him in person, I didn't have time to thank him properly when I left in a hurry that day......"
As he spoke, he picked up the silk handkerchief and put it to his mouth and coughed lightly a few times, Xia Mengning asked with concern: "What's the matter, is it the wind cold?" ”
Liu Shihan coughed a few times, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm afraid the wind blew last night, and my head was a little dizzy, so I can go back home and drink a dose of medicine in a while." ”
Dongzhu behind him whispered: "Miss has been sitting in front of the window every day since that day, and I didn't notice that the window was not closed last night......"
Liu Shihan glared at her, "Little hoof, come out to arrange your young lady, see if I will take you out next time." ”
Dongzhu smiled, shook his hand and said, "The slave doesn't dare." ”
Xia Mengning covered her mouth and smiled, at this time, the drama on the stage had already left the stage, as if it was about to have a banquet, and everyone got up from their seats one after another and walked out.
Changsun Han took the lead in the front, followed by everyone, and when he passed the stone arch bridge in the garden, Donglin Mo turned over his cuffs slightly, and a sharp shadow slipped from the air, if it wasn't for the people with excellent martial arts, I am afraid that he would not be able to see it.
Tanglin Xingluo 'ouch', his body fell to the left as if uncontrolled, Xia Mengning saw all this in his eyes, and was wondering why Donglin Mo wanted to make a move on his sister, when he saw the eldest grandson Yun on the left side of Tanglin Xingluo stretched out his arm and steadily dragged Donglin Xingluo's whereabouts.
The man's jade crown is tied with his hair, although his handsome face is as cold as frost, but it makes people feel particularly fascinated, Tanglin Xingluo is almost stunned, how can there be such a good-looking man in the world, looking at the territory of the Western Regions, only his brother Donglin Mo can compete with it, but Changsun Yun's appearance is so dazzling that it is difficult to take off his eyes at a glance, and he only feels that those bright eyes are like an invisible black hole, which attracts people's eyes involuntarily and firmly.
Tanglin Xingluo looked at it stupidly, almost melting in the eyes of Changsun Yun, and many of the daughters of everyone present blushed and chattered and discussed.
Changsun Yun frowned impatiently, how could the eyes of the woman in front of him make him so uncomfortable, since he was a child, he has seen too many obsessive eyes of this kind, but only when he saw Xia Meng staring at himself intently, his heart couldn't help but jump, thinking of this, Changsun Yun said coldly: "Offended." ”
Saying that, with the help of a little on the back of Tanglin Xingluo, he helped Donglin Xingluo, who was still looking at him stupidly, up.
The queen smiled and said, "Princess Xingluo is frightened, drink more soup at the banquet to suppress the shock." ”
Changsun Yun withdrew his hand behind his back, ignoring the obsessive gaze cast by Donglin Xingluo, his eyes involuntarily glanced behind him, and saw Xia Mengning standing there with a handkerchief, the light purple and dark purple skirts showed the girl's delicate figure layer by layer, Changsun Yun slightly bent the corners of his mouth, and saw the pearl on her head to wipe her forehead.
Seeing this, Dongling Mo smiled slightly, and said: "Xingluo is used to being favored by his father and queen mother, and if there is anything inappropriate, please forgive the son." As he spoke, he turned his head to Tanglin Xingluo and said, "Xingluo, why don't you come over and thank the prince of the world!" ”
Tanglin Xingluo was stunned for a moment, and immediately stepped forward with shy eyes, Yingying Fu, and her voice was as delicate as Yingyu, "Xingluo has seen the prince, thank you for saving him......"
"No need, it's just a matter of effort!" Eldest Sun Yun had a cold face, and quickly interrupted Donglin Xingluo's words, which made her a little embarrassed.
Donglin Xingluo is also a twenty-eight-year-old girl, originally a daughter who lives in spoiling, the first time she was scolded in public by someone she liked, some couldn't get off the stage, a smiling face was slightly raised, and her eyes looked at Changsun Yun pitifully.
Dongling Mo frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Changsun Yun's attitude towards Dongling Xingluo.
When the queen saw it, she smiled and said, "What are you doing standing, the banquet is open, let's go quickly." ”
This sentence can be regarded as breaking the embarrassment of the scene, Donglin Mo turned his head and glanced at Changsun Yun, and Changsun Yun also looked back without showing weakness, Donglin Xingluo on the side was a little aggrieved, looked at Changsun Yun, and turned around and walked forward with everyone.
A group of people walked in front, Liu Shihan covered her chest and her face turned pale, Xia Mengning saw it, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to support her, "Han'er, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?" ”
Liu Shihan shook his head, "It's okay, it's just a little tight, it's an old problem, just go sit for a while, you go first, Dongzhu and I are here to breathe." ”
Xia Mengning nodded, patted her hand and said, "Don't blow the cold wind for too long, I'll be back in a while." ”
Liu Shihan nodded, and Xia Mengning and Jiu'er followed everyone forward.
The footsteps of Changsun Yun and Dongling Mo slowed down, and gradually fell to the end, Xia Mengning and Jiu'er stepped forward and saw the two of them standing opposite each other, their eyes full of murderous energy.
"Third Miss, long time no see!" Donglin Mo shifted his gaze and looked at Xia Mengning who was walking over, with an undisguised amazement in his eyes, after the New Year, Xia Mengning was already fourteen years old, the girl was born beautiful and lovely, her hair was coiled into a temperamental bun, and a pink pearl in the middle of her forehead that exuded a faint halo softened the girl's facial features a lot, and a pair of ink-like black eyes were always filled with a slight moisture, which made people can't help but want to protect.
Xia Mengning smiled lightly and politely said to Tanglin Mofu, "The little girl has seen the king of the Western Regions. ”
There was a sense of arrogance in Dongling Mo's eyes, his eyes tightly locked Xia Mengning's face, and he smiled: "Don't be polite......"
The eldest grandson Yun smiled lightly, stepped forward to block Xia Mengning behind him, and looked at the taste: "It is said that the people of the Western Regions have a bold temperament, and when I saw that this was the case today, this brother was so anxious that he did not hesitate to use a conspiracy to send his unmarried sister out, the king of the Western Regions, do you know this?" ”
Donglin Mo looked at the eldest grandson Yun and said with a smile: "The prince is suave, my sister is also delicate and lovely, if the prince can marry my sister, it can be regarded as a contribution to the union of the northern kingdom and the Western Regions, what does the prince think?" ”
Eldest Sun Yun's eyes were sharp, and he looked at Dongling Mo tightly and said, "It turns out that you have this idea, but the wish of the King of the Western Regions may be disappointed." ”
As he spoke, he reached behind and grabbed Xia Mengning's hand, and said with a smile: "Don't you know that the king of the Western Regions doesn't know, I already have a marriage contract with the third lady of the Xia family, if you have to be strong, then you have to wronged the princess of your country and be a concubine." ”
