The emperor sat on the dragon-patterned golden chair, and Concubine Qian accompanied him, and asked someone to set up a case table beside him, and the old princess sat there.

Haitang subconsciously looked at Yin Ze's side, and saw that his expressions with Lao Cheng Wang Ye changed slightly, as if he had expected this to be the case.

The old princess has been in the Jade Buddha Nunnery for many years, and no one else knows her except for some old ministers. Seeing that although she looked gentle and generous, she was also a little older, and she was dressed more plain and ordinary than the Qian Guifei next to her, and she couldn't guess what her identity was for a while.

"Who is the one next to the emperor? Didn't you hear that there was a bride in the palace? Was it just released from the cold palace? ”

"What kind of cold palace, that's Princess Lao Cheng, who entered the palace a few days ago to see the emperor for a doctor."

"It turns out that this is Princess Lao Cheng!"

……

The palace coughed, and those discussions stopped instantly, and immediately someone stood up and shouted at the emperor for a while. Although the emperor coughed twice, he still spoke with majesty and momentum, and it was okay to look at his spirits.

Haitang couldn't understand for a while, whether it was Aunt Li who cured him or whether he was still thinking about stabilizing the strong outfit of the ministers at this critical moment.

Qian Guifei took the emperor's hand and whispered something softly in his ear, the emperor's expression was indifferent, and at most he only responded casually. Begonia withdrew her gaze and sneered in her heart. In the past, the emperor favored Qian Guifei a lot, and he couldn't help but snub the queen, and she must also take care of Qian Guifei. Now he ignores Qian Guifei, and he doesn't even bother to pretend in front of everyone, for fear that he knows that his poisoning is inseparable from Qian Guifei's five princes.

The music suddenly played, Begonia raised her eyes and looked at the hall, and saw several dancing girls dancing with the music, all of them were stunning, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.

After this dance, a man from the palace came up and said that the envoys of the nations were already outside the palace, and everyone remembered that the seats of the envoys of the nations were still empty.

With the emperor's permission, the envoys of various countries came to see them one by one, and when they offered the treasures of their own country, they also praised the Dongyuan emperor. The emperor was in a good mood, and his face looked even more energetic than just now.

At this time, a person was wearing a black robe, with red dark lines tattooed on the front and cuffs, which looked complicated and solemn. Xiahou Xunmu has a heroic face, and his gestures can be seen in his dignity. As soon as he stepped into the main hall, Haitang could hear the unanimous admiration of the ladies and ladies beside him.

Haitang looked forward again, stared at Xiahou Xunmu twice, and really couldn't associate him with the title of God of War in his heart.

The sudden scorching gaze made Haitang uncomfortable, she raised her eyes, and was not surprised to see Yin Ze's cold and angry eyes. She smiled dumbly and looked away, but she bumped into Fu Zichen's eyes looking at this side again.

There were too many things in his eyes, too far away, and Haitang couldn't see what they were, but she knew that Fu Zichen's eyes were so emotional that they couldn't hold it anymore.

"Behind him is the princess of the First Kingdom?" An official lady asked her mother softly.

Haitang retracted his gaze and looked forward, and saw that Xiahou Xunmu had already walked to the hall, followed by Xiahou Guan Jing.

In the same way, Xiahou Xunmu presented the treasures brought from a country, unlike the deliberate flattery of the envoys in front of him, he just said a few words casually, showing two points of arrogance.

The emperor was not displeased at all, and let him sit down with a little greeting.

The people in the hall, whether they were officials in the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, relatives of the emperor, or envoys of various countries, all looked at Xiahou Xunmu with brushes. Others didn't pay attention to what Begonia looked like, she only saw the corners of the mouth of the fifth prince who had quietly raised since Xiahou Xunmu stepped into the hall, and the smugness in his eyes.

Another burning gaze, she looked up, but her heart was shocked.

It was none other than Xiahou Xunmu who was looking at her.

The only thing that could be seen in those black eyes was ambition. Xiahou Guan Jing beside him was also looking at her, in addition to hatred, she was even more proud.

Xiahou Xunmu was the last to enter, and since he came, the palace banquet would naturally open. After drinking most of the wine and watching a few songs and dances, this is the talent show that everyone is looking forward to.

The first to come out was a little prince, shaking his head and reciting a poem. The emperor laughed heartily, called his son to his side, hugged him and spoke for a long time. Although Qian Guifei was smiling on her face, her eyes were full of coldness, and she saw the biological mother of the little prince, the unfavored concubine's heart was half cold.

"Father, the princess was ...... at the last palace banquet" The fifth prince stood up, paused again when he said this title, and looked in the direction of the begonia and sneered. The dance between Miss Huo and the princess of Yiguo was really beautiful. Today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, how can it be less wonderful, why not let them compete again, how? ”

Without waiting for the emperor to speak, the fifth prince continued: "Erchen heard that Miss Huo was not convinced, and said that she wanted to find the princess to compete again, and she seemed to have made a bet. Now that they've all made a bet, Bibi will know who has the better dance. Today, everyone in this temple is watching, and they will never take sides. ”

"How did the five princes reverse black and white." Begonia chuckled and stood up to meet everyone's eyes.

Everyone's eyes are amazing, I have never seen Begonia's stunning face, and I have seen Begonia and I am amazed that her tone of speech is even more charming and attractive than before.

Concubine Qian on the seat frowned, and there was danger in her eyes.

Everyone in the world knows that she Qian Guifei has the best voice, and most of the reason why she has been favored by the emperor for many years just after entering the palace is because of this. I didn't expect this begonia to be seen for a few days, but she also learned such a seductive ability, and she is still above her?

Qian Guifei looked to the side and really saw that the emperor was interested.

"Huo Xihua, tell me, how did the five princes reverse black and white?"

Haitang looked at the five princes and said: "The five princes said that I was not convinced, but everyone knew that I won the princess at the palace banquet that day, since I won, why should I not be convinced?" Since the princess is my defeated subordinate, why should I ask the princess to compete again? The fifth prince said that I still made a bet, which is even more ridiculous, since I don't have to compare, what are I doing with bets? She looked at the five princes' increasingly ugly faces, and smiled even deeper. Probably because today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, so the fifth prince is so happy that he can't speak? ”

"You!" The five princes pointed at the begonia angrily, but they couldn't say why.

This was not only in front of the entire court of Dongyuan, but also in front of the envoys of various countries, Haitang directly lifted the face of the five princes, and Qian Guifei's face was a little unbearable.

Huo Xing, who was sitting on the seat, frowned, but did not say anything.

"The fifth prince is wrong, this bet is made by Guan Jing, and the person who lost the last competition is the princess." Xiahou Guan Jing stood up and smiled apologetically at the fifth prince.

There was a lot of discussion in the hall, and no one dared to say that the five princes were not, but Xiahou Guan Jing must say it. It's nothing more than that when she first came, she had no one in her eyes, how arrogant and arrogant she was, and after being under house arrest for a period of time, she actually restrained her princess temperament? Now that Xiahou Xunmu is here, shouldn't she be more confident?

"So......" Xiahou Guan Jing set her eyes on Begonia, "so this princess wants to compete with Miss Huo again." ”

"Don't use the competition, why should a good Chinese New Year's Eve smell so much, isn't it good for everyone to welcome the New Year with joy and harmony?" After Haitang said this, he sat down directly, and he didn't have anyone face at all.

Xiahou Guan Jing's face was pale, and she was about to slam back when she opened her mouth, but she was pressed back by Xiahou Xunmu's ice-like eyes. The fifth prince, who had already sat back, put his wine glass on the table, "Miss Huo, what are these words, aren't everyone happy and amiable here?" I let you dance to make everyone lively, the New Year. In my opinion, Miss Huo is not unwilling, but she doesn't dare to jump at all. ”

No brains!

After hearing the words of the fifth prince, everyone probably only had these three words in their hearts. is so clear to pick right and wrong, and still says that there is no smell of gunpowder?

The emperor didn't even give the fifth prince a straight eye, and said in a salty voice: "The princess of Yiguo can sing and dance, and her dance is naturally the finale." If Zhongqing watched the princess's dance first, everyone would still want to watch the rest of the dance. ”

These words made the ministers laugh, and the envoys of all countries also nodded yes with enough face. The fifth prince didn't say anything, but just poured two mouthfuls with a black face.

"I heard from my little sister that the official lady of Dongyuan is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can sing and dance as well as my country, Xun Mu is curious and really wants to see it."

Xiahou Xunmu's voice fell, I don't know who started first, those official ladies are eager to get out what they have learned all their lives. If Xiahou Xunmu can take it back to Yiguo to be a princess or a side concubine, it will be beautiful enough for a lifetime.

Singing, dancing, painting, and writing poetry, some people watched the excitement and some looked bored, Liu Yuechan saw Haitang sitting there alone dozing off, and ran over while Mrs. Liu was snickering while others were talking.

"Sister." Liu Yuechan poked the begonia lightly, and the begonia woke up, with a little confusion in her eyes, and when she saw that it was Liu Yuechan, she turned cold again. "It's not for you to pretend you don't know me, what are you doing here?"

Liu Yuechan was a little aggrieved, "Sister, you just called me my mother godmother, and said that I was your person, now everyone knows our relationship, and now you let me pretend not to know you?" ”

Haitang was speechless by Liu Yuechan's words, "Go back to your mother." ”

"Miss Huo." Haitang heard someone shouting to herself before she finished speaking, she raised her head and saw that Xiahou Guan Jing had already changed into dance clothes and stood in the center of the hall. "The singing and dancing of the young ladies just now is very exciting, what does Miss Huo think? This princess especially likes Miss Zhang's peony and the country is fragrant. Miss Zhang heard that Miss Huo could also paint, and thought about teaching Miss Huo, but she didn't expect Miss Huo to fall asleep. The last bet about Miss Huo had already agreed, and now Miss Huo has woken up, so ...... Can Miss Huo jump? ”
