Chapter 14: The Banquet
Yiyang's little face changed slightly, and she walked to Duan Yun's table again, this time there was no shyness on her face, but she was puzzled and domineering.
"General Duan, this is ......"
The atmosphere of the main hall was quiet again, as if an invisible curtain was slowly pressed down, making people breathless, Duan Yun glanced at the Liuli King, his eyes were indistinguishable, and he didn't know how to answer.
"I am the daughter of the Yun family, my name is Yun Yao."
Without waiting for Duan Yun to speak, Yun Yao replied without hurry, without humility or arrogance, Yiyang's face slowly sank, she was originally a princess of the royal family, and most of the people who came to the banquet today were the daughters of eunuchs, and now she can sit next to Duan Yun without moving, presumably she has an inseparable relationship with the Duan family.
Why should she take her own humiliation, to get to the bottom of it, the person she likes can only be her person after all!
Yiyang thought so, slowly returned to her thoughts, a trace of cunning flashed in her eyes, Princess Yiyang spared the table, walked to Yun Yao and raised her wrist, the white jade fingers carefully stroked Yun Yao's wrist, this wrist is white and soft, even she is a woman to be jealous of three points, with mutton fat jade bracelet, it is really more beautiful.
"I have a bracelet, you also have a bracelet, I think we are very fateful."
Yun Yao was very flustered in her heart, she had seen the methods of the crown prince Li Mingzi before, and she really couldn't understand what the princess wanted to do now.
"Princess, Yao'er doesn't dare."
Even Li Haoyue, who has always been unruly, tightened his face at this time, he knew that Yiyang was very smart, but today was her birthday, what did Li Mingzi do with the bracelet that was exactly the same to the two?
And Xiao Ce, who was sitting opposite Duan Yun, couldn't say anything because of his identity, when Princess Yiyang walked up to Yun Yao, Xiao Ce almost stood up, but fortunately, Qingwu reminded him in time to pay attention to his identity.
Living in the palace since he was a child, coupled with Proton's sensitive identity, he is too familiar with Li Mingzi's every move, this person is good at planning, if he is not completely sure, he will not do some useless things.
Yiyang walked to Yun Yao's side, Xiao Ce knew that something was about to happen, and his heart hung in the air, worried that the only child of the Yun family would also suffer.
Almost instantly, Princess Yiyang shouted, and the whole person fell on Yun Yao's body, and the jade bracelet in her hand happened to touch the corner of the table, and with a "snap", the jade bracelet in the princess's hand was broken!!
Because Yiyang had her back to King Liuli and the minister, it looked like Yun Yao pulled her, and Princess Yiyang couldn't stand steadily.
Duan Yun immediately helped the princess up, Yun Yao instinctively retreated, frightened only to know that she kept muttering the word princess, and she didn't hear the sounds around her.
"Yiyang!"
"Emperor! Someone! ”
King Liuli and Concubine Li exclaimed at the same time, and at the same time, the Imperial Forest Army immediately poured into the entrance of the palace and surrounded the main hall to death.
Princess Yiyang's face was full of pity and helplessness, "Are you jealous that I have the same bracelet as you?" Why are you so vicious at such a young age? ”
This accusation directly sent Yun Yao into the eighteenth layer of hell, she knelt down with a thud, shaking her head helplessly, just now the princess was in front of her, Yun Yao did feel a strong internal force, but before she could react, the princess fell...... The bracelet is also broken!
At this time, I am afraid that I can't tell clearly, the ministers are talking about it, Yun Yao's identity is special, and they are all wondering if they want to take this opportunity to hurt the princess and avenge the Yun family!
Duan Yun held Princess Yiyang in his arms, and after settling the princess, he immediately knelt on the ground and excused himself, a trace of coldness flashed on the man's face, and he immediately covered it up well.
"Please atone for the sins of the lord of the country, it is Duan Yun's lax care, and please punish the king."
Li Haoyue also stood up, walked to Yiyang in a relaxed tone, and after walking around, she said, "I didn't hurt the princess, just as the so-called years are safe, today is the princess's birthday, this is a good omen, and the lord of the country should not be punished." ”
Princess Yiyang didn't speak, if she did too much investigation, I am afraid that she would not be generous enough.
She looked at Li Mingzi with some regret, "Brother Prince, Yiyang is fine, it's just a pity that the jade bracelet." ”
Li Mingzi frowned, as if he was thoughtful.
King Liuli could see at a glance that Li Mingzi had something to say, "The prince has something to say, but what is broken today is your congratulatory gift." ”
Li Mingzi smiled slyly, raised his eyes and looked at Yun Yao who was at a loss next to him, "Father, the sons and daughters feel that General Duan does have the responsibility of taking care of the disadvantage, a few days ago in the back garden, Yun Yao was also so presumptuous, and he also hit Proton Xiao Ce with a stone at that time, I remember correctly, right?" ”
King Liuli looked at Xiao Ce, Xiao Ce couldn't veto anything at this time, he just laughed dryly, "Miss Yunyao may have misunderstood me that day, and it wasn't in the way, just playing." ”
Li Mingzi continued, "The mutton fat white jade bracelet on Yun Yao's wrist was also given by me, that day in the Haoyue Mansion, I saw that she liked this object very much, so I gave it to her. ”
After the prince finished speaking, King Liuli's face became very ugly, and he looked at Yun Yao in disbelief, she is still young, could it be that she has such a heavy scheming at such a young age?
"Duan Yun! What the prince said is true? ”
Duan Yun's face was dark and uncertain, if he shielded Yun Yao again, I was afraid that it would only make King Liuli even more bored, he was silent, and finally could only nod with difficulty.
Yun Yao was already frightened silly on the side, she didn't understand what she was facing next, and two lines of tears flowed down her delicate face.
"Come, chop off one of her hands for this king, she is not worthy of such a noble thing."
The guards immediately set up Yun Yao and dragged her out.
Duan Yun was short of breath and immediately clenched his fists and begged for his life.
"Please also ask the king to calm his anger, Yun Yao just doesn't understand the etiquette in the palace, and she has no desire to compete with the princess."
Yun Yao's face was like ashes, she was still thinking about eating at the banquet, why did she suddenly lose her hand? Yun Yao bit her lip and shook her head, "Your Majesty, I really didn't push the princess, it's not me, it's not me......"
There was a cold wind in the hall, which blew people's hearts cold, and Yun Yao's sobbing sound was in the ears.
There are all ministers, no one has come to intercede for her, anyone with a discerning eye can see that there must be something strange in this matter, Princess Yiyang has no need to destroy her reputation, and Yun Yao does not need to harm the princess, just because, when she was choosing a son-in-law just now, Princess Yiyang fell in love with Duan Yun, so at this moment, everyone didn't want to investigate the fault, just wanted to find a reason to let Yun Yao die.
"Your Majesty, Yun Yao is Wei Chen's wife after all, Yun Yao is guilty, Duan Yun is also unforgivable, and the minister is willing to cut off his hand with Yun Yao and be punished."
