The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the singing and dancing are leveling. In the laughter and laughter, the family banquet started as scheduled, and the courtiers and family members above the third rank of the court and the central government participated in the banquet.
Lin Yu and Wu Cheng drank next to each other, and the two seemed to be familiar with each other. Eno sat at the small table beside Ethan, and with grace she enjoyed the tributes on the table, from the freshest fruits from all over the world to the best from the highest pastry chef in the Imperial Dining Room. Lin Yu raised his eyes to look at Eno from time to time, and secretly laughed with Prime Minister Wu Cheng. This made the keen little Eno feel uncomfortable, and she got up and walked down the Fengtai and walked towards Prime Minister Wu Cheng.
"Prime Minister, Nuo Nuo toasts you." The juice in Ino's hand was raised to Prime Minister Wu Cheng, who was sitting in front of her.
"The wine rewarded by the princess must be drunk by the lower officials." Prime Minister Wu smiled and glanced at Lin Yu and said.
"Prime Minister, who is he?" Eno took a sip, and wanted to walk to Lin Yu's side to toast, but was attracted by the child behind Prime Minister Wu, the little boy's big watery eyes blinked, he grabbed Prime Minister Wu's shirt, and tilted his head slightly to peek at Ino.
"He is the beloved son of Xiaguan, Wu Ke." Prime Minister Wu Cheng pulled the little boy forward and hugged him tightly in his arms and said. Eno put down the juice in his hand and walked over, took the little boy's hand and said, "Follow me!" ”
Lin Yu was shocked, she hurriedly raised her eyes to see the empress and the imperial husband on the phoenix platform, they were also looking here.
"Nono, what are you going to do?" Xi Ning couldn't help but ask, she was too curious.
"The Mother. Nuno wants to take Xiao Ke to play. Yinuo smiled and pulled Wu Ke up and walked towards Xi Ning, without the slightest stage fright from the gaze of everyone present, his voice was crisp and his smile was sweet.
"Does Wu Ke agree to go with you?" Ethan asked expressionlessly, he didn't want Eno to become a habit of doing whatever he wanted.
"Would you like to?" Ino asked Wu Ke with a cute pigtail.
"Hmm!" Wu Ke nodded shyly, his eyes quietly staring at Prime Minister Wu's face.
"Now that you've agreed, let's go!" Eno turned and walked out of the hall, barely thinking away from the rest of the room.
Ino climbed over the heavy threshold and left with Wu Ke, and Bai Liyu and Yan Song immediately followed. Before everyone's eyes could be taken away from the entrance of the main hall, a man in a light blue robe and a white gauze robe wanted everyone to come. That elegant temperament. The hair that is casually scattered is black and bright, with a handsome and upright posture, and it is wild with a spirit that is different from ordinary people.
"Who is he?" Everyone couldn't help but start speculating.
"Wei Linyou?" Dongfang Yue was the first to recognize him. Wei Linyou walked towards Xi Ning with a smile, and knelt three meters away from Fengtai. Shout hooray. This made Xi Ning very uncomfortable. felt that Wei Linyou was deliberately so rusty.
"Linyou, you're here." Xi Ning said with a smile: "Find a place to sit!" ”
Wei Linyou smiled and scanned the banquet room, and found that there was only one person sitting at the table closest to the door. He smiled and walked over to the man.
Yuchen wanted to find an opportunity to leave quietly, but he didn't want to kill Wei Linyou halfway, and sat directly by the door, so if he wanted to leave, it would definitely alarm others, his brows gradually frowned, and a trace of displeasure hung on his face.
"Childe doesn't want to sit with me?" Wei Linyou had a bitter face, and when he spoke, Yuchen felt that he had used up all his strength, as if he was very delicate and aggrieved.
"Nope. Childe was too worried. "Yuchen is not very good at getting along with strangers, and seeing Wei Linyou so stunning, it must be Xi Ning's new love, which makes him even more repulsive to Wei Linyou in his heart.
"I'm sorry." Wei Linyou's acting skills are very good, he has lived with a mask since he was a child, and no one can recognize him in this regard, including Xi Ning, who boasts of his acting skills.
Xi Ning raised his eyes to look at the two of them from time to time, perhaps feeling that the two of them chatted very openly as if they knew each other.
Miao Ren and Dongfang Yue whispered something, and focused on watching the dance staged in the arena. Ethan and Qian Ao didn't know who this person was, but they vaguely guessed something. As for Xiaojun, he knew it, including what Wei Linyou wanted to achieve, as well as the real face under the changeable mask.
Wei Hongyu's concubine, Wei Linyou, disappeared at the age of six and returned home at the age of twelve. In the same year, Wei Hongyu's eldest son died and her husband died. Since then, the entire Wei family has begun to see the potential of this concubine, and they also tried their best to want Xi Ru to marry him as their queen. In the end, he died in many accidents. Xiao Jun looked at Xi Ning beside him, a trace of worry crossed his eyes, and he said silently: I left a poisonous snake by my side!
Wei Linyou also looked at Xiao Jun, and he felt the hostility from Xiao Jun in the air in the main hall. He raised his glass and toasted to Jun Yao, who nodded and drank the wine in his hand. The moment the two looked at each other, sparks flew everywhere.
"Each one is not ordinary!" Wei Linyou smiled and said to Yuchen: "It seems that I have to go dancing." ”
Yuchen looked at him in astonishment, what kind of man would be so shameless?
"Your Majesty, today's beautiful day, can the slave family give you a dance?" Wei Linyou got up handsomely and walked towards the field, and the men who were performing in the field dispersed one after another, and only left after receiving Xi Ning's signal.
"I can't ask for it!" Xi Ning looked at Wei Linyou with a smile, she was guessing what he wanted to do!
Wei Linyou nodded at the musicians in the corner of the hall. The music started, the soothing folk music took everyone to trek through the mountains and rivers to see the north and south of the river, sometimes light like a fish in the water, sometimes soothing like a breeze, sometimes like a boat swimming in the lake, sometimes like a fast horse galloping. In such music, Wei Linyou is like an elf coming out of music, his eyes are sometimes charming and moving, sometimes sad and tempting. His soft body jumped in the field, charming and green, and the women present were all amazed.
Xi Ning looked at him intently, completely stunned, she didn't expect Wei Linyou's dancing skills to be so high, so that the guests in the audience were silent and appreciative. His toes touched the ground, like Chang'e running to the moon, flying up lightly, slowly rising and hovering in the air, when the placket of his clothes flew, people could see his sadness and loneliness, as if he was nostalgic for the world, as if his beloved was waiting for him somewhere, he looked at it from afar, looking forward to it......
Eventually, his body fell straight to the ground, and there was a "bang" sound. The hall fell silent for a moment, and everyone stared at the man who was prostrate on the ground and got up. Xi Ning handed the little treasure in his arms to Ethan, and came to the field in three or two steps.
"Linyou?" Xi Ning pulled his arm, he turned over weakly to face Xi Ning, and she saw clearly that his lips were pale and the corners of his mouth were bloodstained. She hurriedly got up and picked him up, and while letting Yuchen follow, she flew towards Yifeng Tower.
"Ning, the slave family doesn't want to be healed, as long as you, no one is allowed to enter Yifeng Tower." Wei Linyou woke up in Xi Ning's arms and said in a weak voice.
"Good!" Xi Ning hugged him tightly and replied quickly.
When the two of them left, Xiao Jun's expression changed abruptly, Ethan had seen all this by his side, and the other people in the hall also began to leave, Ethan waited for everyone to disperse, and followed Xiao Jun's footsteps towards Yonghua Palace.
"What did you see in the main hall just now?" Ethan followed Jun into his bedroom, still waiting at the door with Wei Long.
"Then Wei Linyou is not a simple person, since he was a child, he has been in the court, you should also remember how Wei Hongyu wanted to marry her son into the palace gate back then, if it wasn't for the sudden death of her sister-in-law, according to the form at that time, I really had to marry her son." Xiao Jun sat at the table and looked at Ethan and continued, "How do you think that sister-in-law died? ”
"Isn't it Wei Linyou......?" Ethan couldn't believe it, he knew too well that Wei Linyou was only a teenager at that time.
"Yes, twelve." Xiaojun said seriously: "Before the age of twelve, he went to a certain place to learn art, and I don't know where he learned from, but he couldn't suppress that evil spirit when he was young at that time. But see you again today, the evil spirit is gone, but there is a trace of pure energy. ”
"Even the psychic medium can't find out where the teacher is?" Ethan asked in surprise.
Xiao Jun nodded silently and said thoughtfully: "He approached Ning'er definitely not just because he liked it, he must have other purposes. ”
"Ning'er only has the country, what else does he want, and we don't know what Ning'er has?"
"Maybe he's the same as his mother, and his ambition is not necessarily!" Xiaojun said calmly, if he saw through the truth under the darkness, he would be calm.
"Wolf ambition!"
"He may have something to do with the sudden rise of the Skeleton, and if that's the case, then we have to be careful, the Skeleton can do anything. Moreover, Ling Zong's foundation was also destroyed in the hands of the Soul Skeleton, which is really not to be underestimated! ”
"Skeletons?" Ethan remembered the gossip that the Soul Skeleton had spread on the rivers and lakes, and began to worry more about Xi Ning's situation. He asked Xiaojun, "We should remind Ning'er to distance himself from him. ”
"Ning'er won't believe it, then Wei Linyou is too good at acting, and the fall after that dance tonight is real, he took back all his internal forces and did it deliberately." Jun poured a glass of water for Ethan.
"Indeed, although I did not witness my attention to the child at that time, I did not fall according to his prelude dance skills." Ethan recalled the previous scene and said, "Bitter meat plan? Could it be that the last time he blocked the arrow for Ning'er, it was also deliberate, and there was also a knife block, and it was not a coincidence that he rescued him, it was he who did it on purpose. ”
"I wasn't there at the time, so I can't guess if it was intentional, but I knew he wasn't going to hurt himself."
Ethan looked at Xiaojun's remarks, and was even more amazed by Wei Linyou's weak appearance, it was really ......
"What should Jun do now?" Ethan felt that this matter needed to be considered in the long term and not done blindly.
"Let's be prepared and wait for him to make a move, so we can know his purpose." Jun rubbed his temples and whispered.
"Well, I'm not going to let anyone move for a moment." Ethan's pupils lit up as he said this.
After Ethan left, Xiaojun whispered to himself: I'm afraid he won't let us!
