Under the circumstance that Lan Xin insisted and Zhuang Siyan kept fighting, in the end, two more layers of her clothes were pulled out of it.

I also removed a lot of the head and face, and I always moved more freely.

In Zhuang Siyan's words: "Those palace concubines are dressed up beautifully, not to attract the emperor's attention, we have no shortage of this matter, why do you need to pull hatred at this time?" ”

Lan Xin told her that the makeup of the palace banquet has always been grand, and it is the same as her going to the sacrificial ceremony.

Zhuang Siyan stopped doing it: "How can it be the same?" The sacrifice is to be shown to the heavens and the ancestors, so it is natural to have respect. But this kind of palace banquet is for the emperor to see, and he hasn't seen these people before, so no matter how good-looking he is, is it useful? ”

"Of course it's useful, isn't the emperor the heaven of the harem?" Lan Xin said.

Zhuang Siyan actually felt speechless.

The emperor is not only the heaven of the harem, but also the heaven of the people of the world, in this dynasty dominated by feudalism, the high and high have all the rights that ordinary people do not have, and have become the real masters of mankind.

However, Ling Tiancheng seemed to be a little wronged.

As soon as I thought of this, I heard someone from the palace shouting outside, saying that the emperor had arrived.

Zhuang Siyan hurriedly pulled out two more golden hairpins on his head and said, "Okay, okay, it's time to go." ”

Lan Xin also shook her head when she looked at the headdress that was dragged down by her own lady and thrown on the dressing table at random.

She was still afraid that Ling Tiancheng would blame her, so she came out with Zhuang Siyan, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Niangniang's hair ornament has not been put on yet, ...... it." ”

Zhuang Siyan immediately turned his head and glared at her: "I've put it on, it's already very neat, do you think this doesn't look good, Your Majesty?" ”

Ling Tiancheng: "Good-looking, my Yan'er, no matter how good-looking." ”

Lan Xin: "......"

A group of people left the Xuan Palace, and were led by the eunuchs and palace maids to the dinner place.

The palace banquet is set in the Xuanqiong Treasure Hall, and you can see the winding houses in the palace when you climb to the top floor, the towering palace walls, the red and yellow palace lights, and the palace people who walk around from time to time with the lights on, like a painting shuttling below.

On the other side, there is the scenery of the entire capital, the dark sky in the distance, the snow that has not melted, the houses nearby, and the inn restaurant.

There is no place that is not lively, and there is no place that is not desirable.

Most of these concubines have never gone out as soon as they entered the palace, so standing here at this time, looking at the scenery outside, they are a little sad.

The palace is a symbol of power, but also a symbol of a cage, few people who come in can do what they want, even Miao Guifei can't, let alone others?

The cold wind on the top of the dome is cold, although you can see the lights of thousands of homes, but there is also a feeling of being cold in a high place.

The concubines, who were already a little frail, began to notice a slight coughing sound.

Zhuang Siyan stood behind Ling Tiancheng, side by side with Concubine Miao, seeing that her clothes were also very thin, but she was not too cold, and she was still a little admired.

Miao Guifei didn't look at her, her eyes were full of arrogance that looked at the world, and she didn't even bend her body.

The neck was even more straight, and the heavy headdress seemed to her to be plastic, and it was not worth mentioning at all.

It's not easy to be high!

Zhuang Siyan thought that at her level, that is, she was mixed in the palace to investigate cases, if she went up further, like a concubine or a queen, wearing a bunch of things on her head all day long, it was estimated that she would go crazy.

All kinds of kneeling, all kinds of up, a set of things to do, it is already an hour later.

Zhuang Siyan felt that her legs were wooden, worse than her, and the concubines who followed behind, all of them were weak and powerless, and when they were blown by the cold wind, they felt that they would fall below at any time.

Finally, the ceremony here is over, and I began to go down in an orderly manner to participate in the real palace banquet.

At this time, it is the time for the concubines and concubines of the palace to compete for beauty.

At a glance, the clothes are colorful and bright, and the jewelry on the head is under the light, exuding a light that shoots people, following the wearer's every move, and evoking people's infinite imagination.

Each concubine has different characteristics, gorgeous, elegant, pure, and beautiful.

Zhuang Siyan was dazzled, he couldn't turn his eyes, and when he turned his head to look at Ling Tiancheng, he saw that he was still sitting upright, and he also admired it.

There are so many stunning colors, dangling in front of him all day long, trying their best to please him, even if they know that they have bad intentions, few people can stop them, right?

It is no wonder that many people think about fairness and honesty when they are not in high positions, but once they sit in that position, it will not take long for them to become corrupt.

The temptation is too great, Zhuang Siyan's daughter is about to be bent, and she really feels sorry for how Ling Tiancheng restrains herself, and she can still get up early every day to go to the morning court.

She was wandering outside the world here, but Ling Tiancheng leaned over and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Think about how you can resist the temptation of so many beautiful women." Zhuang Siyan didn't even think about him.

Ling Tiancheng glanced at her deeply: "Because of you." ”

"Me? I'm not doing anything, and I'm not like Miao Guifei, who killed the person you want to spoil. ”

Ling Tiancheng: "Because you are better than all of them, with you, no matter how good they are, they are still colorless flowers in my eyes." ”

Zhuang Siyan was stunned.

It's too much, flirting with her with such a serious face, or in this kind of beautiful situation.

What others didn't know, they thought that the two of them were talking about something serious, but it turned out that Ling Tiancheng was just flirting with his sister.

Zhuang Siyan forcibly brushed his head over: "Do you want to be so flirtatious?" Everyone else is still watching! ”

"How does it look? I love you and don't need to hide it from others. ”

Ling Tiancheng used a very special word, "love", this word is often hung on the corner of people's lips in modern times, people are used to using it, and they don't feel any difference.

But since Zhuang Siyan came to the Dasheng Dynasty, he rarely heard this word, especially from Ling Tiancheng's mouth.

He is the emperor and the king of a country, he can spoil a woman and like a woman, but he can't love a woman.

The impact was getting bigger and bigger, Zhuang Siyan was a little difficult to accept, especially seeing Ling Tiancheng's serious face, she felt that if she continued to talk like this, it was very likely that she would not show affection to him on the spot.

If this kind of occasion is not suitable, it is still necessary to control.

He smiled awkwardly at Ling Tiancheng: "Your Majesty, I'm a little bored, go out and take a breath and come in ......." ”

Lan Xin hurriedly stretched out her hand to support Zhuang Siyan and followed her out from the side door.

The air outside was cold, and most of the palace people were also waiting inside, so there were not many people.

She stood for a while, not wanting to go back and sit there and accept everyone's gaze, so she said to Lan Xin, "You go and help me take out the handkerchief." ”

As soon as Lan Xin turned around and went in, Zhuang Siyan had already found his way to go somewhere else.

The Xuanqiong Treasure Hall is at the very edge of the Imperial Palace, and you can see the thick palace walls from here, and you can also see several palaces close to this side.

It's just that tonight I went to the palace banquet, so every door was closed, and few people came in and out.

Zhuang Siyan walked alone for a while, and was blown by the cold wind, and the hot mood that had been teased by Ling Tiancheng before cooled down.

Looking around carefully, I found that it was not far from Jiangxue Xuan.

She took a few more steps, and suddenly saw a black figure come out of the corner, and her body flashed into the Xue Xuan.

Miao Guifei was sitting next to Ling Tiancheng, this Zhuang Siyan had deliberately seen it when he came out, so who was the person who entered the palace gate now?

Thinking so, she was already chasing after her feet with a single force.

The palace door was still open, and there was a faint sound of talking coming from inside.

Zhuang Siyan quietly pushed the door open a little crack, and also flashed inside, looking for the sound of talking.

It was two little palace maids, their voices were very low, and they were talking as they walked inside.

"Hurry up and take it, it's not far from the palace banquet, it's still too late."

"But the concubine came over and said to wait."

"The concubine is soft-hearted now, but our queen mother is sober, if she misses tonight, she won't have a chance, I heard that the emperor took her out of the palace recently."

Zhuang Siyan felt a sudden chill in his heart.

Even this kind of thing leaked out, so could he and Ling Tiancheng's trip to Southern Xinjiang still go smoothly? Could it be that someone is already waiting on the way?

In addition, Empress Dowager An and Concubine Miao Guifei haven't let her go yet, looking at this situation, it is likely that they are using some kind of poison.

Zhuang Siyan followed them inside, and the two of them argued at the edge of the corridor, their voices were raised, and their footsteps stopped.

"This is the Queen Mother's decree, do you dare not obey?"

The other palace maid was silent for a while, probably unable to resist the pressure, and whispered: "I'll give the things to my sister, Niangniang really doesn't allow us to go out of the palace for half a step, if she sees me showing up there, she must know that the matter has been revealed." ”

The palace maid who came to deliver the message was angry, so she pinched her arm with her hand: "Waste, I don't have any idea at all, no wonder the concubine usually beats you." ”

The pinched palace maid begged for mercy and didn't distinguish anything.

In the end, he took out a pot of wine, handed it to the visitor, and said, "Sister, be careful, as long as this wine is touched a little, it will be poisoned, and it will rot from the place it touches." ”

"Got it......"

The palace maid was dissatisfied with her verbosity, took the flask and walked outside.

Zhuang Siyan came out after her, and at the corner of the Xuanqiong Palace, he picked up a small stone from the ground, and hit the palace maid's knee with a "dang" sound.

She screamed "ahh

The palace maid was frightened, but the matter was urgent, she didn't have time to dodge at all, and could only watch the wine spill on her body with a "bang".

An even louder exclamation came out of her mouth, almost heartbreaking, startling all the eunuchs patrolling nearby.

The maid of the palace screamed loudly as she screamed, and quickly took off her clothes.

The eunuch who came over originally saw her fall to the ground and wanted to pull her, but when he saw her undressing, he didn't dare to move forward.

They do things in the palace every day, and not long ago, everyone knows very well about the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.

They don't know what this palace maid is going to do, but if they are involved in some mess, it will be a dead end.

Several people saw that she had even taken off her close-fitting clothes, and she didn't even have the courage to look at it, so she turned around and fled, as if she didn't know anything.
