Chapter 88: The falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless
Su Shen, who is in his early twenties, still has a youthful and heroic face, but his eyes are already so deep that it is difficult to see through, especially when he looks at Feng Wanli, which is even more faintly meaningful.
Feng Wanli also smiled back, politely said "don't dare", and then raised his glass to the Su family father and son, and then took a sip of the wine in the glass, but it was like drinking water and didn't taste what it tasted like.
Emperor Xuan's reception banquet for the envoys of various countries can be described as happy in the end, especially the Xuanwu Kingdom Ruixian King is the most happy, it is said that this virtuous king, who was born more delicate than a woman, was drunk in the palace for a few hours before leaving and returning to the Taiwei Mansion.
And the ninth princess of the Fire Phoenix Country, Huo Xuan, even though she is too spoiled and too strange, is really obsessed with Long Yucang.
Since listening to Long Yucang's words of "life and death" promised to Feng Huanling in public at the banquet, the ninth princess has been really depressed for several days, even if it is rare to eat with "Brother Cheyue" in the flower hall, she is no longer as noisy as before, and temporarily reins in all the publicity and no longer makes the chickens and dogs in the palace jump, but the third princess says more and more.
Feng Huanling arranged for Xuanqu to personally monitor the progress of the Beicheng Budrunk Building, and found that in addition to the tight construction period, there were also quite a few accidents during the secret visit, but some big people came forward to suppress it.
Who is the big man behind the Zephyr Workshop, Feng Huanling naturally knows it without having to investigate, so he just arranges for someone to secretly investigate the inside story of the "accident".
On November 11, Emperor Xuan's birthday banquet is coming.
Since the princess of the Fire Phoenix Kingdom was placed in the Cheyue Palace, the Cheyue King and the princess naturally wanted to accompany the two princesses to attend the birthday banquet, so the two carriages came to Chengyang Gate together, not wanting to meet the other team of chariots and horses who came to the banquet.
Today, the guard in charge of the palace gate is the guard Mo Aoqun himself, originally saw the carriage of the Cheyue Mansion coming from afar, he was ready to come forward to greet him, but when he saw the carriage of the Taiwei Mansion coming from the other side, he didn't care about what to come first, turned around and went to his father's carriage.
Ma Tiancai, who was also waiting in front of Chengyang Gate to greet the envoys of various countries, was immediately unhappy when he saw this, even though he knew that Mo Weiwei and Mo Taiwei were father and son, but after all, King Cheyue and the envoys of the Fire Phoenix Kingdom arrived one step ahead, and they couldn't help but open their mouths to complain.
Of course, this is also because he has always regarded himself as the Feng Prime Minister, and naturally regards King Cheyue, who married Miss Feng Si, as a faction, but the Mo family has obviously become increasingly estranged from the Feng family recently, and he will inevitably be repulsed.
Mo Weiwei, who was born as a military attachΓ©, has always had a bad temper, and this Ma Dianke is a well-known straw bag official, who climbed to his current position with all his silver, and in the eyes of the government and the opposition, especially in the eyes of the major families, he is a clown.
So when he heard Ma Dianke's complaint, Mo Weiwei immediately glared at the tiger angrily and scolded: "What kind of thing are you? Don't think that if you put on an official hat, people won't be able to see that you are a mountain monkey, in the final analysis, you are just something that has been wantonly played with! β
Ma Dianke, who was originally just whispering, didn't do anything when he heard this, even if he knew that he was not as good as these children from prominent official eunuch families, but he was also the richest man in the south, and he always wanted face, so he was scolded in public as a monkey who was being teased, and immediately stepped forward to quarrel with him.
When Feng Huanling was personally helped out of the carriage by Long Yucang, what he saw was such a farce, the two ministers who were already middle-aged and ranked in Jiuqing actually scolded each other in front of Chengyang Gate, and Na Mo Weiwei was even more eager to do it, and the two were about to tear together.
"Nonsense!"
On the other side, Taiwei Mo, who had just gotten off the carriage with King Ruixian of the Xuanwu Kingdom, was so angry that his eyes widened when he saw this, but a shocking angry shout only made the two of them pause slightly, and then they scolded each other and scuffled.
"Yo, it's rare to see such a lively scene in front of the palace gate, which really opened the eyes of this king!"
Xuan Zhuo, who was more dressed than the last time he entered the palace, was obviously winter, and he had an extra peach blossom fan in his hand, and the smiling fox looked at the figure of Mo Weiwei and Su Dianke fighting, and gradually bent into two thin slits.
As the imperial uncle of the Shenlong Kingdom, Long Yucang naturally couldn't let the two officials who worshiped Jiuqing make a fool of themselves in front of the envoys of the two countries, but with his identity, he naturally couldn't step forward to stop him personally, so he glanced at Luo Xian, who was following him.
Luo Xian nodded, and the person had already rushed to the Chengyang Gate like a string, and Ma Dianke, who didn't know anything about kung fu, was thrown aside in the blink of an eye, and even Mo Weiwei, who was guarding the palace gate, barely took two moves, and was forced to retreat again and again by him, stopping the decline before he saw that the person who made the shot was actually the little guy next to King Cheyue, and his eyes flashed with anger, but he didn't rush forward impulsively.
Luo Xian, who separated the two of them between the lightning and flint, said without humility or arrogance: "Offended, the two adults, please calm down, let the prince and the prince wait here with the envoys, it is rude." β
In the middle, there was a tall and strong peerless master, and on both sides stood the cold King of Cheyue, and the face of Mo Taiwei who was as heavy as water, and the mind of Ma Dianke Mo Weiwei, who was dizzy with qi and blood, suddenly sobered up, and they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize.
The excitement that I just wanted to see was leveled out in an instant, and it was difficult to hide the loss on the scorching peach blossom face, but when the fox looked at Luo Xian's appearance, there was a flash of light, and his complexion changed slightly, and even the shallow smile on his face that seemed to have remained unchanged for thousands of years was stiff for a moment.
The small episode outside the Chengyang Gate naturally will not affect the birthday banquet of Emperor Xuan, and King Cheyue has always been silent, so Mrs. Mo opened his mouth to reprimand a few words, and then gave way to the envoys of the two countries into the palace, and then went to the direction of the Taihe Hall after changing to the palace.
Mo Taiwei specially told the palace people that their chariot should be slower than that of King Cheyue, and King Xuanzhuo of Ruixian did not feel that there was anything wrong with such an arrangement, and the feather fan in his hand was still shaking unhurriedly, but he looked at the tall figure of Luo Xian who was following King Cheyue's car in front of him, and his eyebrows gradually tightened unconsciously.
Although it is winter, the Taihe Hall is still decorated with flowers, so that those who come to the banquet can't help but get drunk before drinking.
Long Yucang, who stands out from the crowd wherever he goes, is accompanied by three beauties this time, except for the princess, the other two are wearing fiery red phoenix robes that are extremely eye-catching, so they immediately attracted all the attention when they entered the Taihe Palace.
Long Yucang and his entourage had not yet been seated, and the following Mo Taiwei and King Ruixian had already stepped forward.
"I was really surprised to see the skills of this little brother next to King Cheyue, it looks like he is not a hero from my Xuanwu Kingdom, right?"
Xuanzhuo walked into the Taihe Hall in a leisurely manner, and many of the ladies who came to the banquet with their father and brother saw this wise king for the first time, and most of them secretly looked at the peach-like handsome face with obsession.
Luo Xian tightened his body when he heard this, but Long Yucang said indifferently: "The virtuous king is a short-sighted, but whenever he sees a tall and heroic figure, he must say that he is a Xuanwu national?" β
"You, the Ruixian King, are also interesting, why do you take the initiative to talk to my brother Cheyue every time you see me?" Huo Xuan is a person who loves beauty, but no matter how good-looking a man is, when he comes to her brother Cheyue, he becomes a dime, "Last time, I coveted Princess Cheyue, but this time I even got the idea of the attendants next to Brother Cheyue, do you want to grab Brother Cheyue's things when you see them?" β
was snatched by a girl with a crisp voice, even if it was a fox face, it was a little unbearable, but Xuan Zhuo couldn't do anything with a little girl, not to mention that the other party was still the ninth princess of the Fire Phoenix Kingdom.
"This king has always loved talents, but he doesn't have a habit of grabbing things from anyone, but the ninth princess has some truth in saying it, it seems that the people around King Cheyue can always arouse the interest of this king, it's really weird."
Xuan Zhuo didn't look at Luo Xian again when he spoke, but deliberately glanced at Feng Huanling, and his thin lips that were not dyed and red hooked up with an ambiguous smile, "It's a pity that the falling flowers are intentional, but the water is ruthless." β
Without a trace, he took his eyes away from Luo Xian, who had a strange face, and Feng Huanling smiled: "Today's beauties are like clouds, and there is also the promise that the Holy Emperor promised to King Xian, the prince has the kung fu or take a look at other women, don't waste any more effort." β
"It's too early to say whether it's in vain or not." After Xuan Zhuo said this, he turned to Luo Xian and said, "Little brother, this king is purely just a talent, how about having a chance to come out and have a few drinks with this king in the future?" β
"The virtuous king carries love." Luo Xian had already regained his usual composure, but his voice was a little colder, "But I don't have time to accept the invitation, and I am destined to disappoint King Xian." β
Xuan Zhuo was not surprised as if he had expected it, although he raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose with a slight regret, he was not annoyed. At this time, Captain Mo stepped forward to greet King Cheyue again, and then led King Ruixian to his seat.
When the auspicious time came, Emperor Xuan brought Empress Dowager Mo, Concubine Mo Shu, and Concubine Fengde into the table, and Feng Qingwan, who had been removed from the position of concubine, was naturally not among them this time.
All the courtiers and guests bowed to Emperor Xuan, first three long live and then congratulate the joy of his birthday, and the sound of the flood echoed in the hall for a long time before dispersing.
Long Jingming seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, and after saying a few high-sounding words to the envoys and ministers of various countries, he immediately announced the official start of the birthday banquet.
After a few glasses of wine, Hu Yanlie stood up first and raised his glass to Emperor Xuan and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Shenlong Kingdom, my father and the emperor have specially ordered me to bring a thin gift, and wish Your Majesty a long life." β
The prince of Tiger Roaring Kingdom, who is still lingering like a flower and butterfly among the daughters of various families, has changed his appearance at this time, and his words and deeds can be described as orderly.
When he clapped his hands very heroically, the music in the hall stopped abruptly, and even the sound of whispering conversations in the banquet was silenced.
Following the guidance of Hu Yanlie's arm, everyone looked at the door of the hall with bated breath, and a light copper bell sounded faintly in the silence, as if it came from thousands of miles away.
Ding bell, Ding bell The sun poured at the door of the main hall, a white shadow that was faintly transparent by the strong sunlight slowly drifted into the main hall as if hanging in mid-air, and many people couldn't help but stare at it in amazement.
As the copper bell gradually became clear and crisp, the girl of the Tiger Roaring Country, who was wearing only a translucent snow veil, gradually appeared in front of everyone.
The tulle under the hood from the top of her head makes her face more hazy, and also makes her whole person extremely mysterious, only the skin at the ankles tied with copper bells is exposed in public, and a touch of snow and tender color is lined with golden copper bells more and more attractive.
It wasn't until this mysterious woman walked into the hall that everyone realized that she was not floating into the Taihe Hall while sitting in mid-air, but riding a silver-white tiger under her!
