Chapter 115: Palace Banquet
Maybe she will kick herself out of the palace at some point, but she can't fight back.
Thinking of this, Gazan couldn't help but muttered in his heart: It's really terrible.
"I want to see my sister, you go and arrange it, I want to see my sister."
"Yes, the slave will arrange it."
Xiao Huaijin sat in front of the fire and shook the fan gently, just in time to see Gazan leave the east courtyard in a trance, although he didn't hear what Wanxiang said to Gazan, but he also guessed in his heart.
As soon as Liang Cuo walked in at the door, he ran into Gazan, stepped aside and sent people out before walking in the direction of Xiao Huaijin. took out an account book from his arms and handed it to Xiao Huaijin: "Lord Wang, the account book sent by Aunt Hong." The dividends of the Tibetan Incense Pavilion over the years have also been sent to the Eagle's Beak Peak. ”
"Let it go."
"Lord Wang, just a few wine shops in Jinyang, the Zangxiang Pavilion in Beixun...... It's simply not enough. Don't look at the princess anymore......"
"That's enough." Xiao Huaijin stood up and threw the pu fan aside, picked up the account book and said to Liang Cuo: "Don't mention this matter to Wanxiang for the time being." ”
"Yes."
After speaking, Xiao Huaijin went to the study with the account book, and did not return to the bedroom until nightfall.
Wanxiang lay quietly on Xiao Huaijin's knees, the candlelight was weak, Xiao Huaijin carefully medicated her, and the blood scab on her back had begun to fall off, but it would still leave a faint scar.
She asked softly: "Lord Wang, is my back ugly?" ”
Xiao Huaijin covered the medicine bottle and brushed a few old scars on his back waist with his big hand: "It's not ugly." ”
"I always feel tired, I don't have the energy to do before, and I don't know how long I have to drink the medicine. In the end, it is a strange poison that is regarded as a treasure in southern Xinjiang, which is really powerful. ”
"You're so smart, you'll always find a way to get rid of the remaining poison."
"Lord Wang, I miss Aunt Hong."
Xiao Huaijin smiled and put on her middle coat: "When you were asleep, Aunt Hong went to the imperial city to see you, but you didn't know when you were asleep." If you really miss her, just call her again in a few days. ”
Wanxiang sat up and pulled out the hairpin, took off her hair, and leaned against Xiao Huaijin: "Forget it, I'll go back to Beixun when I'm free." ”
"Okay, I'll take you back then. In a few days, the Empress Dowager will be on her birthday, if the injury is not good, you will not go. ”
Hearing this, the incense suddenly raised her head: "Don't go?" Do you want Gazan to sit next to the king? ”
"You know I didn't mean that."
Wanxiang patted Xiao Huaijin's heart: "Okay, I know that the prince didn't mean that." Speaking of which, Gazan was scared enough today. ”
"How can you be like this, if you want to kill someone, you have to tell people in advance?"
"It's good to let me know in advance, lest people say that I am bullying the small." At the end, Wanxiang also added: "The birthday of the Queen Mother, I naturally want to go." lest they fall into the tongue. ”
Lest the Queen Mother's birthday be too comfortable, and if she doesn't want to keep herself alive, then she wants to live to show her.
On that day, Wanxiang was dressed in a blood-red and white-edged gold-embroidered dress, with a face like red lips and eyebrows and begonias, sitting next to Xiao Huaijin, and tens of thousands of people were particularly conspicuous among them.
Just like Ji'er said, the empress dowager's face was almost green when she saw such a fragrant face, and she was even more dissatisfied with the emperor, and she couldn't stop complaining: "Dressed so frivolously, I'm afraid that others won't know that she is a dancing girl." ”
"Is the imperial grandmother talking about the Sixth Imperial Aunt?"
This is the first time that the Empress Dowager has heard displeasure in the mouth of the little emperor, and when she looks at this young man who has grown up all of a sudden, she seems to remember that she is old.
I heard the emperor continue: "The sixth imperial aunt is dignified and well-dressed, I don't know what the imperial grandmother wants to say?" ”
"The back position has been empty for two years, and the minister has admonished him several times, and the emperor's eyes should not only be staring at his imperial aunt."
"Grandmother also knows that the middle palace has been empty for two years, so grandmother should take a good look at her grandson to see whose daughter is suitable in this court. Instead of just staring at the Six Emperor Aunts, there is also the Qi family. ”
"Your Majesty...... You! ”
"Your Majesty, today is the birthday of the emperor's grandmother, and the whole country is happy. Let's not talk about this, I heard that the Sixth Emperor Aunt has excellent dancing skills, so can I ask the Sixth Emperor Aunt to dance to my grandmother? ”
It was none other than Gazan's sister who took the opportunity to play the round. Su Rili the emperor indulged her, she thought that the emperor was really favored, but from beginning to end, she was just a little emperor's boredom.
This interjection reminded people of her going to the Empress Dowager to tell the truth before, and even made the little emperor remember Wanxiang's cry in the letter.
So he asked without turning his head: "Did you interject?" ”
“……”
The Empress Dowager chuckled: "The daughter on horseback, the pearl of the Khan of the Su clan, is different from the wind and dust women who generally make men happy. Gamu Gazan is like this, so it is not pleasing to people. ”
Then he waved his hand and sent the eunuch on the side to Xiao Huaijin's seat to spread the word, and did not forget to say a word to the little emperor: "Speaking of which, Qi Hou seems to be unwilling to go against King Pingnan." ”
During the words, the Empress Dowager reminded the emperor with a knock on the side, and turned her head to look at the dancing girl in front of her with a smile.
She didn't seem to care at all about the emperor's disrespectful words just now, in her eyes, the emperor would always be a child.
The little eunuch bypassed the crowd and ran to Xiao Huaijin's banquet and passed on the Empress Dowager's will to dance incense to cheer up. Originally, the Empress Dowager thought that Wanxiang's complexion would change suddenly.
What she saw was that she smiled lightly and said a few words to the little eunuch, then turned around and patted Xiao Huaijin's hand: "Has the prince ever been annoyed?" ”
Xiao Huaijin smiled calmly: "What are you angry about? ”
Wanxiang leaned into Xiao Huaijin's ear and whispered, "That old thing is laughing at my origin." ”
Xiao Huaijin looked back at Wanxiang, and suddenly cracked his mouth and smiled: "If I cared, I wouldn't have married you in the first place." ”
"Then the concubine went to change her clothes."
After saying that, Wanxiang walked out of the hall from behind, and the palace maid who changed her clothes saw that Wanxiang was still wearing medicine behind her, and couldn't help but shout: "Ah, the princess has a ...... back."
"Don't worry." After saying that, Wanxiang put on her coat and tied her belt tightly, as if she was not afraid of strangling herself at all: "This dress fits well." ”
On the throne of the gold lacquer carved dragon in the hall, the little emperor was waiting anxiously. The singing and dancing are low, the sleeves are fluttering, the bells are ringing and the chime is melodious, and the incense burner on the pedestal is surrounded by green smoke.
People were waiting for the princess of Pingnan, and they didn't shy away from talking about the identity of Wanxiang, but Xiao Huaijin didn't care at all, and calmly picked up the wine cup and waited for the red figure.
Xiao Jingyu sat quietly beside Rong Chuan and looked at Xiao Huaijin: "Do you say that the Sixth Emperor Brother is happy or holding back his anger?" ”
"Some people think that they have refuted Xiao Lao Liu's face, but our sixth brother doesn't care about this. Looking at your straight-eyed nephew, someone is afraid that he will not lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot. ”
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyu immediately pinched Rong Chuan's arm: "You dare to say anything." ”
"Oh, do you know that this is murdering your husband?" Rong Chuan innocently rubbed his arm and looked ahead: "I don't know which person has a heart to spread the matter of Beixun to the ears of the Queen Mother." But speaking of which, Wanxiang is the person who went out of Baining Houfu, and the queen mother doesn't want to see Wanxiang just doesn't want to see our Baining Houfu? ”
"Now that I see that the Sixth Emperor Brother is not angry or annoyed, I should have a plan in my heart, so let's not speak rashly."
"Okay, listen to Madame."
The dancing girl in front of her went down, and then she found a graceful woman walking over, raising a water sleeve nearly as long as a staff to pry everyone's eyes.
The long sleeves fell out of the dust like a fairy, and the soft eyes were full of three points of heroism that ordinary women did not have, and they were relaxed or hurried or slow, and it was not difficult to throw up the sleeves at all, and the face was still beautiful, and Gu Pan also stroked Xiao Huaijin's cheek with his sleeve far away.
Seeing the human face clearly, it was Princess Pingnan.
Seeing this, Gazan's sister couldn't help but clench her fists: "It's so light and thin at the palace banquet......"
The little emperor blinked his eyes and asked: "The Sixth Emperor Aunt just inadvertently shaved her husband's face, is it light?" Then do you think the women of the harem are not in accordance with the rules to please me? ”
“……”
Saying that, Wanxiang looked back at the little emperor, and there was a secret message between the eyebrows of the two, and Xiao Huaijin, who was looking at the side, was indifferent and despised as if he were nothing, and he couldn't see anger at all.
Just looking at Wanxiang's eyes aimed at the emperor's sword, the little emperor immediately pulled out his sword and threw it at Wanxiang. Akika threw up her sleeves and wrapped her arms around the sword, turning the blade of the sword to grip the hilt tightly in her hand.
turned over and waved his sword to point to the candlestick on the side, and the sword qi directly extinguished the candlestick.
