In the welcome hall, King Beihu and the old princess each sat down in the hall, and the maidservant brought good refreshments, vegetables and fruits, and put them on the table in front of the seat. Huerkh also sat down.

"Huer, bring your princess-to-be over and have a look." The old princess saw that Huerhe was sitting down like no one else, and hurriedly reminded.

The old princess only thought that her prospective daughter-in-law was waiting with those concubines in the hall, but she didn't know where even Huerhe had gone.

Huerhe listened to Grandma's words and hurriedly got up, "Please wait a moment between the king and Grandma." ”

Then, Huerhe came out of the welcome hall.

Seeing that Huerhe actually came out of the welcome hall, the old princess frowned unconsciously, and looked at the concubines under the hall again, she originally thought that her prospective daughter-in-law was one of them, but she didn't expect to appear. It's really disrespectful and unruly. But because King Beihu was by her side, she couldn't say anything, so she could only wait with a gloomy face.

As soon as Huerhe walked out of the door of the welcome hall, he stopped, all he could do was wait, waiting for the housekeeper to bring Xia Muyao over, but he was also worried that Xia Muyao would not obediently listen to the housekeeper's words, so after the housekeeper came to report Xia Muyao's whereabouts for a while, he went to arrest her.

After waiting for a while, he still didn't see Xia Muyao and the housekeeper, Huerhe's heart was a little anxious, he paced back and forth under the corridor, looking at the road from time to time, until he saw the housekeeper and Xia Muyao coming from a distance, Huerhe breathed a sigh of relief and strode up to meet him.

"I'll take you to see the king and my grandma, don't be nervous, just be quiet by my side." Huerhe took Xia Muyao's little hand and whispered.

Xia Muyao didn't speak, silently followed Huerhe's side, and entered the welcome hall all the way, and the concubines under the hall immediately gave up their positions and let Huerhe and Xia Muyao go to the hall.

King Beihu, the queen, and the old princess stared at Xia Muyao as soon as she entered the welcome hall. Xia Muyao is not dressed up, her hair is lightly pulled, there is no makeup on her face, but her natural and transparent skin seems to be shining with porcelain, which is eye-catching, young and impressive, even if she walks beside Huerhe, who has a strong aura, she is not inferior at all.

King Beihu squinted his eyes, looking at this beautiful and peerless little woman, he couldn't help but be amazed, thinking that she should be his concubine, he felt a little lost in his heart, and he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Huerhe made a mistake, in case this little woman was really Zhao De?

King Beihu was an unruly person, thinking like this, he got up and walked to the bottom of the hall, approached Xia Muyao and looked at it carefully, "Tell the widow, what's your name?" ”

Xia Muyao's heart moved, at this time it was a good opportunity to break away from Huerhe, as long as she told King Beihu that she was Zhao De, did that mean that Huerhe would not be able to marry her?

But Xia Muyao looked at the King of Beihu with a thick beard and a rough face and a fat body, and it was really difficult to have a good impression, so she couldn't help but lean closer to Huerhe's side, "Back to the king, my name is Xia Muyao." ”

King Beihu straightened up, looked at Huerhe, smiled, turned around and sat down again.

Queen Beihu on the side smiled slightly, "This woman is delicate and has a good demeanor, and King Yan really has a good eye." ”

The old princess watched from the sidelines, she had never received half of Xia Muyao's news before, as for Xia Muyao's Li Dai Taozhuang, because it involved the intersection of the two states, King Beihu had never mentioned it to her, but now that she saw it, she was such an indifferent little girl of a different race, which was really far from her expectations in her heart. Seeing that Xia Muyao's beauty was abnormal, the old princess felt that her son was confused, and her heart was even more displeased, and the expression on her face became more and more serious.

When Huerhe introduced his aunt to Xia Muyao, Xia Muyao raised her eyes and saw a slightly chubby and sturdy old woman sitting on it, looking at her with a critical look and a displeased face.

Huerhe also expected this situation, and if it was delayed any longer, there would be greater differences, so he said to King Beihu and the old princess: "The king and my grandmother have been traveling all the way, so they will go to settle down and rest first, and enjoy singing and dancing with dinner for a while." ”

"It's fine." King Beihu was cool and got up to answer.

When the old princess saw that King Beihu had said yes, she nodded, got up from the hall, and when she walked past Xia Muyao, she didn't even look at her again, she was really dissatisfied with this prospective daughter-in-law, but when she just met at this moment, it was not good to talk to her son and count Xia Muyao. But after dinner, she was determined to make her stand with her son and prevent the wedding.

****

Xia Muyao returned to Tengchong Courtyard, and not long after, Huerhe, who had settled King Beihu and the old princess, also returned.

"I don't want to go for dinner for a while." Xia Muyao leaned on the railing under the corridor and said to Huerhe.

"No, you are my quasi-princess of Huerhe, such an important occasion, you must not be absent." Huerhe refused.

"But your grandma doesn't like me, and I only annoy her by dangling in front of her." Xia Muyao said absent-mindedly.

"What you want to do is the princess of my Huerhe, as long as you treat me wholeheartedly, you don't have to worry about the rest." Huerhe couldn't see Grandma's dissatisfaction with Xia Muyao.

Xia Muyao said no more, originally she couldn't be the master, she could only be passively pushed forward.

"Why did you hesitate when the king asked your name today?" After a while, Huerhe bent down again and asked.

Xia Muyao turned her head to look to the side, "Do you know why you still came to ask me?" ”

"I want to know why you didn't answer that you are Zhao De?" A meaningful smile welled up at the corner of Huerhe's mouth.

"What if I say I'm Zhao De? I'm not really Zhao De after all, sooner or later I will be exposed, so why bother? Xia Muyao was still absent-minded.

"Yao'er is a smart person." Huerhe smiled.

"Then if I really say that I am Zhao De, so what?" Xia Muyao couldn't help but be curious.

"How? It's nothing more than a little effort, you must be the princess of my Huerhe. Huerhe's tone was calm and light.

Xia Muyao looked at Huerhe, he was really arrogant, took a little effort? If she really said that she was Zhao De, then he was deliberately possessing the king's concubine, wouldn't it be the worst sin?

"What are you most afraid of in this world?" Xia Muyao asked again.

Most afraid? Huerhe was stunned, looked at Xia Muyao deeply, smiled, and didn't answer.

****

For dinner, Xia Muyao attended with Huerhe, she was by Huerhe's side, and she didn't bother, Huerhe stood and she stood, Huerhe sat down, and when dinner started, Huerhe picked up chopsticks, she also picked up chopsticks, did not squint, ate quietly, and turned a deaf ear to the noisy talk and laughter around her.

King Beihu looked at Xia Muyao, Huerhe said in the secret letter that day that she was an innocent woman who was held hostage and coerced by the bandits, he didn't believe it, a group of bandits, hijacked an unrelated woman to pretend to be Princess Dakang to marry on her behalf, so what was their purpose? The reason why he didn't track it down was just because he wanted to give Huerhe a favor to push the boat along the river.

The queen saw that King Beihu was looking at Xia Muyao at every turn, but she was afraid that he also had other thoughts about Xia Muyao, if so, she would inevitably have a bad relationship with Huerhe, not only the royal scandal, but also afraid that Beihu would fall into turmoil again, so she reminded softly by making dishes for King Beihu: "King, no matter how beautiful that woman is, after all, she is the princess of King Yan, so you can't look at it so directly." ”

Listening to the queen's words, the king of Beihu smiled stupidly.

The old princess was also constantly observing Xia Muyao secretly, although this little girl was small, her face was gloomy and calm, and she was not a simple look. When she saw her son personally picking vegetables for her, she became more and more angry, and in front of the public, Huerhe was so doted on her, what kind of prestige could she have when she spread it? The old princess's heart became more and more depressed.

Xia Muyao didn't care about others, she ate quietly, and occasionally looked up at the singing and dancing in the lobby, and she didn't know where Huerhe found these kabuki, all of them were enchanting and dancing, and they were really pleasing to the eye.

And the concubines, it is rare to have such an opportunity to show their faces, and they still want to dress up to show off their limelight, but when they saw Xia Muyao's beautiful appearance without powder, they suddenly felt bored, so they put away their desire to be a peacock and do their duty safely.

In short, at a dinner party, everyone present has different thoughts, even if there is singing and dancing, it is not very harmonious.

When the dinner was over and everyone dispersed, Huerhe naturally wanted to accompany King Beihu and the old princess to say something considerate in private. Xia Muyao wanted to take advantage of the chaos to retreat with the concubines, but was quietly pulled by Huerhe, he turned his head to look at her, and told her with his eyes that he didn't want to escape.
