There are no colorful phoenix wings, and there is a little bit of wisdom in the heart.

Jiang Cailing felt a familiar gaze fall on her body, and looked sideways, a group of people appeared on the path of the Dream Garden, and under the glass screen painting palace lamp, a man with eyebrows that seemed to be carefully depicted by Gongbi was looking at her with a smile.

A purple white crane official uniform was worn on him, lined with mountains and rivers, and he was independent. Compared with the greasy middle-aged officials standing around, Zhuo stood tall and became more and more dazzling.

The palace lights are dazzling, the stars are dim, and the two people are looking at each other from afar. Although they were separated by a distance, at the moment when they looked at each other, it seemed that there was no one else in this world except them.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world.

"When did you come and are you feeling better?" Su Qingcheng's voice suddenly sounded in her ears, Jiang Cailing's apricot eyes moved, she staggered her gaze slightly, and her hand unconsciously raised to arrange the steps on her bun, diverting her attention in disguise.

"It's okay, don't you still have a plan today, I won't come, I'm afraid you'll be impulsive and mistaken again." Jiang Cailing whispered, her eyes caught on Wu Xiaoyao, just a few days ago, she and Su Qingcheng made a plan, ready to completely marry the Wu family and the East Palace at today's reception banquet.

Su Qingcheng's face changed slightly, he didn't refute anything, and when he saw a petal on the top of her head that fell at some point, he raised his hand and picked it off.

The pink petals swirled and fell to the ground, and everyone saw this scene in their eyes, and it was obvious that the relationship between the Ten Princes and the Ten Imperial Concubines was not affected.

Mrs. Shilang couldn't help but murmur secretly in her heart, you must know that in this rumor, when the Ten Princes saw the beggar trying to insult Mrs. Du on the night of the Xia Yuan Festival, they were furious, and they pushed the Ten Imperial Princesses who were planning this game of chess to the ground on the spot. Why did the two reconcile in less than three days?

And Du Nianyu's heart also flashed for a moment, Su Qingcheng actually put himself aside and talked to He Ling'er enthusiastically, which was impossible to happen before. However, when she thought of what He Ling'er said to her the day before yesterday, the fire of jealousy in her heart gradually subsided.

In the palace for seven years, what kind of humiliation has not been endured, but she has endured everything that can be endured and cannot be endured, and it is not a year and a half now.

"Your Majesty has arrived, the queen has arrived, and the eldest princess has arrived!" A high-pitched and bright voice interrupted everyone's thoughts, and everyone knelt down one after another, shouting long live.

After Emperor Chu sat down, everyone also sat down. Cui Nian followed behind the eldest princess, and grinned as soon as she saw Jiang Cailing, if it wasn't for the eldest princess pressing, I was afraid that she would have run to Jiang Cailing's side early.

The Emperor of Chu and the Empress of Chu were on the high platform, and Gu Jiming was sitting at the bottom.

"Oh my God, who is that purple-robed man, I thought that our prince was already handsome, but I didn't expect that there would be such a graceful person in the world, and I don't know what kind of woman he would like?"

"But you see that his eyebrows and eyes are cold and cold, eighty percent is an immortal without seven emotions and six desires, if you want me to say that the ten princes are good-looking."

"None of you think that the tall man next to you is very burly, and people feel safe at first glance? Although if you look at the face, the purple-robed man is more handsome! ”

Jiang Cailing heard the nobles behind her whispering about who the purple-robed man was. My heart moved slightly, I don't know whether to be proud that this dazzling man is her person, or whether to complain about Gu Jiming's peach blossom face. You must know that Nan'an women are different from the gentleness of Luoyang women, Chu people are bold, and it is not uncommon for women to pursue men.

Emperor Chu said happily, "Today, the envoys of the Zhou State came to our Chu State to discuss the long-term peace and stability of the two countries, and I am very relieved. These two are the envoys of the Zhou State, Lord Gu and Lord Li, and they need to be courteous when they meet in the future. ”

After Jiang Cailing heard Emperor Chu's introduction, she suddenly realized that sitting next to Gu Jiming, the burly and tall man who was talking about the noble girl behind her just now was Li Yan.

Although Li Yan was single-handedly promoted from the local area to the foundation of the Imperial City during her lifetime, he was able to become an envoy of a country to visit the world in a short period of time, this kind of ability is really not to be underestimated.

The banquet officially began, and Empress Chu said to Gu Jiming with a smile, "We Chu people are outstanding and spiritual, and we have been rich in beauties since ancient times, and in the eyes of my Chu people, beauties must meet the three criteria, white skin, thin waist, and small bones. The more delicate and white the skin, the more soft and slender the waist, and the more symmetrical the skeleton, the more petite the urine, the more beautiful it is. This palace specially shows the traditional beauty dance of our country for the friends of Zhou who came from afar. ”

With the three strokes of the palms, ten beauties wearing lotus root pink walked gently in front of everyone, the sound of silk and bamboo wind music sounded, the women danced with the beat of the drums, the light gauze clothes exposed the white neck, wrists, waist and ankles, through the rendering of the light, the dancers were graceful, and people were dazzled, and many men present were fascinated by the look, for fear of missing a trace of detail.

Jiang Cailing raised her eyebrows, took a sip of tea gently, and occasionally glanced at Gu Jiming, only to see that Gu Jiming still had a very cold expression on his face, although his eyes were admiring the dance, he was obviously not intoxicated by it, and he was talking to Li Yan most of the time.

The reason why Empress Chu arranged such a program is nothing more than to see if the envoy is a lustful person, if he is a lustful person, he will give it to a beauty, and if he is greedy for money, he will give him gold and silver, which is an out-and-out Chu method.

It's just a pity that Gu Jiming and Li Yan don't seem to have any interest in beauty.

Empress Chu obviously didn't believe it, but all men were lustful, and it was impossible for them not to be impressed by these beauties. These dancers are all top-looking people selected from the major song and dance workshops in the Chu Kingdom, could it be that the two of them are made of stone?

After the dance, Empress Chu asked with a smile, "I heard that Master Gu hasn't married yet, I don't know if he will marry a bride of our Chu country?" ”

As soon as the ladies below heard that Gu Jiming had not yet started a family, they all came to their senses, and began to prick up their ears and listen attentively to Gu Jiming's answer.

Gu Jiming's indifferent black eyes glanced around the banquet, and finally fixed his gaze in one direction, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

This smile seemed to be the spring breeze melting the ice and snow, the eyes shimmered with obsidian brilliance, and the lips opened lightly, "Maybe." ”

Everyone followed Gu Jiming's gaze and gathered on Wu Xiaoyao. I saw Wu Xiaoyao's look of surprise and joy, which girl had not hoped for such a scene: an excellent man who is like a god in the eyes of everyone loves you alone, announcing her fiery love in front of everyone.

Gu Jiming's overtures satisfied Wu Xiaoyao's self-confidence, so much so that she forgot the existence of Luan Wenzhi.

Eyes swept over Luan Wenzhi's face with an elegant smile, Jiang Cailing raised the teacup to hide the corners of her lips that couldn't help but be hooked, she was now very sure that Luan Wenzhi's heart must be very tormented at this time. Gu Jiming's excellence is obvious to all, even if he has the identity of the prince of the East Palace, it is inevitable that a nervous drum will sound in his heart.

Especially, only by relying on the blessing of the Wu family's troops can he successfully ascend to the throne, Wu Xiaoyao is of great significance to him, as if it is an important city, and it must not be lost.

This plan was told by Jiang Cailing that He Xiaoxiao helped tell Gu Jiming, and her purpose today was to match the marriage between the Wu family and the East Palace in public and speed up the fall of the Wang family.

still remember that He Xiaoxiao asked her this morning: "Aren't you afraid that Wu Xiaoyao will really covet the beauty of your family's Gu Xiang, and then impulsively agree?" ”

Her answer was, "First, Wu Xiaoyao has been brainwashed by the Wu family since she was a child, and she has already regarded liking Luan Wenzhi and marrying him as a matter implanted in her heart, and it is impossible to accept Gu Jiming; Second, she is not stupid, on the one hand, she is the crown princess and thus the queen, and on the other hand, she is the wife of Xiangguo. She would certainly choose the former. ”

In fact, she still didn't tell He Xiaoxiao a third point, just now Gu Jiming didn't say who the woman he liked was, everything was just everyone's guess, so there would be no problem at all.

The Garden of Dreams was unusually quiet, with everyone concerned having their own agendas and onlookers watching the gossip with relish.

Jiang Cailing's voice with a smile sounded in the Dream Garden, "After Miss Wu and Xuan, the threshold of saying that the kiss has been broken, but it's a pity that none of the sons of Quannan'an, Miss Wu, have taken a look, it turns out that they are waiting for a beautiful man like Lord Gu!" Since ancient times, harmony has been one of the ways to promote friendship between the two countries, and if the young lady is willing to marry far away, it is the best of both worlds. ”

As Jiang Cailing's words fell, the eyes of some officials of the Lord and faction lit up, and their minds began to pay attention, and one of them stood up and echoed, "The brave general has great achievements, and his daughter Xiaoyao is comparable to Zhaojun, and she is really a tiger father and no dog girl." ”

This sentence is very skillful, first mentioning the Wu family's great military achievements, and later mentioning Wu Xiaoyao's distant marriage, every sentence is rooted in the heart of Emperor Chu.

Just now, Jiang Cailing directly promoted Wu Xiaoyao to the status of Zhaojun, which means that this matter will no longer be a matter of two surnames, but a matter of two countries. If the Wu family wants to refuse, it will not be so simple.

However, no one here knows that Wu Xiaoyao admires Luan Wenzhi and wants to become the crown princess. However, Jiang Cailing pretended not to know, as a hostile person to Wu Xiaoyao, breaking her marriage would not make others suspect anything.

Hearing these voices, Wu Xiaoyao withdrew from her sense of satisfaction, saw that Empress Chu and her father's faces were not good, glared at Jiang Cailing fiercely, and then quickly got up and knelt in front of Emperor Chu, and said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, Yao'er already has a sweetheart." ”

The eldest princess, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, with a sneer in her voice, "It is so important to love your children in front of the country, and the brave general is really careful to educate his daughter?" ”
