Chapter Forty-Eight: Above the Palace Banquet, Tongues and Swords

Jin Ran didn't expect to meet the prince and princess of Western Xia at the queen's banquet today. She couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "The people of Western Xia? Why did they come back? Isn't it rumored that the king of Western Xia loves this pair of children the most? He even made his youngest son the next crown prince.

Princess Ming'an smiled: "It's not because of your family's Fang Tianhalberd?" General Fang beat Western Xia like this. The king of Western Xia is now estimated to have only one breath left. Nowadays, the government of Western Xia is controlled by the great prince of Western Xia. The king of Western Xia is now a puppet. ”

Jin Ran listened to Princess Ming'an's words. He nodded thoughtfully. She still knows a little about the situation in this dynasty, but when it comes to other countries like Western Xia, she doesn't know much about it.

Princess Ming'an looked at Jin Ran worriedly: "I also just learned that people from Western Xia would come." The queen kept this matter a secret. I just said it this morning. You have to be careful, after all, you are Fang Tianji's fiancée outside. "And Fang Tianji is almost equivalent to the father-killing enemy of this Xixia princess.

Jin Ran nodded, signaling that he understood. She didn't blame Princess Ming'an for not notifying her in advance, after all, Princess Ming'an didn't know about it in advance. When the time comes, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth.

The Queen Mother came late. She seemed to be stumbling over something, but she was very graceful. The queen was dressed in a yellow robe of a hundred birds and a phoenix. On his head, he wears a silk phoenix hairpin inlaid with a finger-sized pearl. On the edge of the east pearl of the main body of the phoenix hairpin, there are a lot of rice beads with very fine silver wires. With the queen's every move, it trembled gently. The craftsmanship is extremely fine.

The queen's hands were painted with bright red dancome. She smiled slightly, looking in a good mood. It seems that his mood has not been affected in the slightest by the absurd things done by the inability to govern the six palaces and the four princes.

The queen gently raised her hands and motioned for the ladies who had stood up to salute her to sit down.

She has a kind smile and light makeup, which makes her look particularly approachable, which makes some people who don't have a good impression of the queen because of various rumors have a good impression of her.

The queen lightly lifted her lips: "There are a lot of flowers in this imperial garden today. And the three-color peony in the flower room is not in full bloom, although it is still a little cold, but the three-color peony is blooming well. Hongu thought that such an auspicious omen should also be seen with all the noble ladies. ”

The peony has always been a symbol of the queen, and now the weather is still cold, and the peony is in full bloom. Doesn't that mean the queen is prosperous? Although no one can say whether this peony is in full bloom naturally or artificially urged. But since the queen has already opened her mouth, everyone has no more praise and a few more words.

Sure enough, the wife of the waiter of the lower ceremonial department said with a smile on her face: "Ouch, this is all because of Niangniang Shengming!" It must be the virtuous lady of the mother who moved the heavens. Heaven sent down such a miracle. ”

The other ladies also casually agreed, but they praised the queen well.

At this time, the queen had not yet spoken. But I heard a "poof" in the middle of the banquet.

Someone laughed out loud.

The laughter was especially evident in the clapping of horses. The banquet couldn't help but be quiet, and no one dared to speak.

The smile on the queen's face faded. She is in the position of the queen, and she is also very powerful in Su Rili. At this time, it was a little scary to have a cold face.

The queen asked the Xixia princess who let out laughter coldly: "Princess Hu Xiana, you laugh so loudly, but what advice do you have?" ”

At this time, Jin Ran saw Hu Xiana's true face for the first time. The robes on this Hu Xiana are all different from the dresses of the Hua Dynasty. The top is narrow and the bottom is wide, the sleeves are extremely close-fitting, and there are not many embroideries, only a few places are embroidered tiger heads and other patterns, which looks mighty.

She stepped on a pair of silver-edged pony boots with red soles, the tips of the boots were slightly upturned, and the piping was a layer of fluffy rabbit fur. gave her neat dress with a bit of girlish cuteness and playfulness.

She stood up nonchalantly, the jewelry on her body rattling as she stood up. There was a lot of turquoise hanging from her waist.

This Hu Xiana raised the wine glass in her hand and toasted to the queen: "This princess has heard the best words of the Chinese Dynasty. I still don't believe it, but when I went to the queen's banquet today, I saw it, ouch, it's true! If I hadn't known in advance, it would have been the ladies of the Hua Dynasty. I thought there was a group of little Haba who were screaming at the master! ”

After saying that, she ignored the reactions of others. But he laughed out loud.

The faces of all the women in the hall changed, and she said this mercilessly, although your posture just now was really not very good-looking. But the noble ladies of the Hua Dynasty were said to be pugs by a barbarian princess, but these people couldn't bear it.

Some of them were already scolding.

This Hu Xiana also ignored them, but stood proudly: "I thought it was good to defeat the Hua Dynasty, the hometown of General Fang Tianji, who defeated me in Western Xia." I didn't think it would be like this. ”

She didn't care what the others said, but continued to speak ill of her: "You women of the Hua Dynasty are nothing more than that. How can you be a general of the Heavenly Halberd Fang? ”

Co-authored this, Hu Xiana actually has a little admiration for her own exterminating enemy.

Maybe I still think that the women of the Manhua Dynasty are not worthy of the heavenly halberd, and she is the only one who is as beautiful as Fang Tianjilang.

Hu Xiana had a little admiration for Fang Tianhalberd in her heart.

She is still young, which is the age of the girl Mu Ai. Although Hu Xiana only glanced at Fang Tianji from a distance on the wall of the Western Xia King City. However, rumors such as Fang Tianji's divine martial arts and transporting troops into the gods flowed into her heart like flowing water.

After that, although Fang Tianji defeated Western Xia, it also gave Hu Xiana more opportunities to see Fang Tianji. Unconsciously, a seed of love was planted in Hu Xiana's heart.

After the Western Xia royal city was destroyed, Hu Xiana was well protected. Although after that, there was a period of displacement. But it was quickly settled. In her heart, she is still the noble little princess of Western Xia. This time in the Hua Dynasty, her father, the old king of Western Xia, just told Hu Xiana to let her come to the Hua Dynasty to study.

She rushed to get to the Hua Dynasty, thinking about how to get to know Fang Tianji well. Call him to be his own colt.

But Hu Xiana didn't expect that Fang Tianji would be accused of marriage early! His fiancée is just an ordinary Miss Hua Dynasty, who is as skilled as herself. Fang Tianji married that young lady, and he would definitely not be as happy as being with him.

She had already selectively forgotten the fact that Fang Tianji had not seen her at all.

When Hu Xiana said the first sentence, Jin Ran didn't know what she wanted to do when she said these words, after all, it was not a good thing to anger the entire circle of noblewomen in the Hua Dynasty. But with Hushana's next words, her fox tail was revealed.

Before Jin Ran could speak, Princess Ming'an, who was busy maintaining her friend, jumped out, and she snorted: "You are just a proton who was given up by Xixia." How dare you speak ill of Hua Chao? Hu Xiana, could it be that you lived in the Hua Dynasty for a few days and forgot how you fled in Western Xia in the first place? ”

Hu Xiana's face changed, and before she could speak, Jin Ran stood up.

Jin Ran smiled slightly: "Princess Hu Xiana, you said that this young lady of the Hua Dynasty is not worthy of the heavenly halberd." Could it be that you are a daughter of a defeated country in Western Xia? Her tone was gentle, but the words she said almost made Hu Xiana suffer from a myocardial infarction: "As far as I know, this heavenly halberd has captured your father and relatives alive." It stands to reason that you and the Celestial Halberd are really enemies. That's how you Western Xia raised girls? The princess who raised herself is full of no courtesy, righteousness and shame, and her mind is full of coveting her enemies? ”

"Oh, I forgot. You Xixia, there is no courtesy, righteousness and shame. Before Hu Xiana could catch her breath, Jin Ran added the second half of the sentence unhurriedly.

When the other ladies saw Hu Xiana's purple face, they couldn't help but clap their hands.

Even the queen only coughed lightly twice, and did not open her mouth to reprimand Jinran and Princess Ming'an, who spoke unceremoniously. She was also choked by this Hu Xiana.

Hu Xiana has grown up with thousands of favors since she was a child, and she has always been her reprimanding others. There was someone else who replied. At this time, she was angry enough, but "You! You! You! "I've had to say it several times, but I can't figure out how to refute it. After all, Jin Ran said what she felt in her heart.

Hu Xiana's eyes were red, and she looked at the envoy who came with her behind her, and the envoy's face was also dark.

This envoy originally wanted to use Hu Xiana's mouth to give the Hua Dynasty a dismount, so that the Hua Dynasty would know that although their Western Xia surrendered, they were not at the mercy of others.

But now that Hu Xiana has been scolded back, and Princess Ming'an has exposed Hu Xiana's identity as a proton, this little princess has always had a violent temper. If she knew that she was abandoned to the Hua Dynasty, she didn't know how to make a scene.

Thinking like this, the envoy also regretted why he had just let Hu Xiana rush up to provoke her, instead of stopping her.

But at this point, it is useless to regret more. He could only bite the bullet and play a round: "You're really sorry. Princess Hushana is really spoiled in my dynasty. This king begs you to spare Hu Xiana for the sake of her young age. Hu Xiana, apologize! ”

This envoy is Hu Xiana's own uncle, Hu Xiana didn't expect her uncle to speak for herself, and asked her to apologize.

Hu Xiana had always been afraid of this uncle, so although she was unwilling, she reluctantly said sorry. Her eyes were red, and she bowed her head, looking so pitiful, and she didn't want to be so domineering just now.

Her voice was very quiet, and after she finished speaking, she glanced at the guards beside her with some fear.

Jin Ran was sitting opposite Hu Xiana, so she saw Hu Xiana's eyes sensitively, and she looked curiously at the guard, who was eight feet tall. It looked like it was about the same height as Fang Tianji. He was also dressed in a costume unique to Western Xia. The hair on his head was braided in many braids and draped over his shoulders.
