Chapter 19: The Prince's Figure

"Heh......" Queen Su let out a chuckle, and said lightly: "Concubine Ning really has a heart." ”

yes, I deliberately slapped her in the face.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions became a little subtle.

Zhou Youning noticed it a little, and then said coquettishly: "Queen mother, Ning'er is hungry." ”

Queen Su immediately changed her expression, and glanced at her with a smile: "You little glutton." Okay, let's have a meal! ”

The palace maids came out in a row and delivered all kinds of delicacies.

"The emperor has arrivedβ€”" The banquet was about to start, and the eunuch's sharp voice came from the door of the palace.

As soon as the words fell, all the concubines and concubines stood up, wearing ornaments and clanging, as if playing musical instruments.

"Get up, no need to be polite." Zhou Shixian walked leisurely in front of him with his hands in the back, followed by a young man, tall and thin, with six or seven points similar to him between his eyebrows and eyes.

Everyone got up when they heard this, and their eyes fell on the prince who suddenly appeared, and their expressions were different for a while.

Meng Xilan was stunned.

Isn't he under house arrest? How did it end up here?

"Long live the Holy Lord's arrival, and the concubines are far away." Without waiting for the queen to speak first, Concubine Ning took the lead in stepping forward, and Ying Ying saluted again, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were charming.

Zhou Shixian personally helped her up, and a rare smile appeared on his always serious face. "I heard that the queen held a banquet, and I also came to join in the fun."

Concubine Ning smiled coquettishly when she heard this. "Long live the Lord came just in time, and the concubine will accompany you for a few drinks in a while to help you have fun."

"Okay, then I will have a good drink with all my concubines today."

Listening to his tone, he really has a bit of a faint gentleman's true colors.

Queen Su was preempted, but because she saw the emperor, any unhappiness in her heart disappeared.

When the emperor and the crown prince sat down one after another, Queen Su deliberately asked: "It's rare today, long live the Lord and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince together?" ”

Her tone rose slightly, with a hint of doubt.

Zhou Shixian said lightly when he heard this: "It's too late to see the excerpt, so I just took the prince out to relax." ”

These days have really suffocated him.

The crown prince Zhou Youlong's expression was a little depressed, he looked at Queen Su, and said sharply: "The son came suddenly, the queen mother won't welcome the son, right?" ”

Empress Su didn't hide her disdain for him, and said with a smile: "How come? The main palace is still rejoicing. I haven't seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come over these days, and the palace has been very worried. ”

Everyone talked to each other face to face, and the palace banquet was the beginning, and the delicious food and wine accompanied by melodious music covered up all the unpleasantness.

Meng Xilan sat silently for a while, looking at the table on her wrist, a little annoyed.

The crowd is naturally lively, and Concubine Ning's flamboyant laughter is heard in her ears from time to time, and her bright smiling face can be seen following the reputation.

Meng Xilan suddenly wondered, is she really that happy?

The emperor was very happy to be coaxed by Concubine Ning, and intentionally or unintentionally put Queen Su aside, but fortunately, Zhou Youning was still talking to her by her side, so that she would not be too embarrassed.

Everyone seemed to be happy, but the crown prince was the only one, drinking to himself, looking lukewarm.

In fact, he couldn't figure out in his heart, why did his father suddenly bring him over? Was it deliberately to embarrass him?

He was thinking about it, and when he looked up, he saw Meng Xilan sitting diagonally opposite him.

That's a raw face!

He was imprisoned for a few days, his status plummeted, and he was not so well-informed about the news in the palace.

Zhou Youlong's memory is not good, but remembering people, especially women, has always been very powerful.

She was dressed like a young lady from an official family, and she looked quite beautiful.

Zhou Youlong stared at her immature and green face, and suddenly sneered. Presumably, it is the beauty that the mother of which palace prepared for her father.

Just like Zheng Zhaoyi today, she went to live in the palace under the pretext of being Concubine Ning's companion, but after living for less than a month, she climbed into her father's bed......

The women in this palace are all the same, cunning and cheap.

Meng Xilan lowered her head slightly, she didn't notice it, and Zhulu behind her reminded her in a whisper: "Miss, ...... on the other side"

Meng Xilan raised her head and was stunned when she saw the contemptuous gaze of the crown prince Zhou Youping.

Prince...... Zhou Youlong...... Why did he look at himself like that?

After staring at him for a moment, Meng Xilan retreated in her heart, turned her eyes to look at Zhou Youning, and said softly: "Princess, it's almost time for the Queen Mother's medicine." ”

Zhou Youning put down the tea bowl: "Sister Lan is leaving?" ”

Meng Xilan smiled apologetically: "I've opened my eyes today, it's time to go back." ”

Zhou Youning thought about it and nodded meekly: "Then I'll go back with my sister." ”

This is the best, Meng Xilan is hoping so.

The two got up and said goodbye, who knows, Zhou Youlong also stood up, "It's not too early, I'll go with my sister." ”

Meng Xilan's brows furrowed slightly.

At this time, the night was deep, and the night wind blew, blowing the palace lanterns swaying, and the flickering light shone on Zhou Youlong's depressed face, which made people feel cloudy.

This prince is notoriously moody, and Meng Xilan just wants to go back quickly, so as not to attract unnecessary bad luck.

Fortunately, Zhou Youlong left soon.

Meng Xilan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Youlong sat in a sedan chair, and didn't go far, he lifted the curtain and asked, "Who is that girl?" ”

The person he asked was the chief eunuch in his palace, Wan Xiaotian.

Wan Xiaotian bowed his head respectfully: "Back to the words of the prince." It was the Anguo Mansion, the eldest daughter of the Hubu Meng Shilang, who was summoned to the palace a while ago to be a companion to Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”

"Oh? It's the daughter of the Meng family......" He was silent meaningfully.

Don't think about it, the people of the Meng family must have the idea of beating the fourth. It's an elder brother and a younger sister, do they think that the fourth child will replace him as the crown prince?

Wan Xiaotian took advantage of the situation and said: "This Meng girl is now the number one celebrity next to the Queen Mother." ”

The first celebrity?

The corners of Zhou Youlong's mouth hooked up, and the smile was pointed: "With her appearance, it is not difficult to make a name for herself in the palace." Even if she doesn't have to rely on the Queen Mother, she can make a living. ”

"Master...... Speaking of which, you haven't been to the Queen Mother for a few days! Wan Xiaotian paused and said.

I heard that in order to keep the crown prince, the queen mother has made a lot of efforts, and everyone is sick, and she has not been able to make a good deal yet.

Zhou Youlong's eyes froze when he heard this.

That's what that old woman should do, don't expect to thank her!

"Master, long live the lord has finally dissipated his anger, and it's time for you to behave." Wan Xiaotian looked at his face and said.

Zhou Youlong sneered: "Is it too late to perform now?" In front of the harem, everyone thinks I'm gone, waiting to see my jokes. ”

Wan Xiaotian saw that there was no one around, so he persuaded in a good voice: "Master, take a step back and open the sea and the sky, and endure the calm for a while." As long as you can get through this hurdle, these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains will be in your pocket sooner or later. ”

He can't watch the prince stay depressed like this, let alone let the position of the prince fall into the hands of others like this.

One is prosperous, one is lost, and the future life is all counted on the prince alone.

Zhou Youlong no longer responded, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Yes, everyone is waiting to see his jokes, and I can't let them get their way!

Wait and see!
