Chapter 23: The Palace Banquet (2)
When the time came, all the kings and nobles took their seats, and there were all kinds of delicacies and delicacies on each low table, and Limo also found a secluded corner position to sit down.
As if smelling the smell of food, Sprite flew out of Limo's sleeve, ate a lot on the table, melon seeds and peanuts, threw them into her mouth, and kept tinkering, no, it attracted the attention of others.
"Sprite, I think you're going to turn into a little mouse." Li Mo motioned to let the little blue fish move a little quieter, after all, it was in the palace, in case the emperor was unhappy, but it would cause death.
Jing eyes drooped slightly, Li Mo was eating melon and fruit snacks, but suddenly felt a hot gaze locked directly on her body, she slowly raised her head, followed the line of sight, but suddenly fell silent.
Yuan Peize was looking at herself with affection at this time, and she turned her head away expressionlessly.
Obviously, Sprite also noticed that sight, and quietly underestimated in Li Mo's ear, "The man who has been staring at you is the prince who refused to marry you?" ”
Limo's eyes narrowed slightly, and she smiled lightly: "Don't pay attention to it." ”
Yuan Peize wore a pale yellow brocade robe, with a dragon girdle around his waist, walked over with an arrogant and arrogant taste, and sat next to her.
Li Mo's expression was cold, and she glared at Yuan Peize coldly, her eyes were as straightforward as if she was looking at an idiot, and this prince was a vulgar guy at first glance.
Limo rolled her eyes and said angrily, "Don't tell me you're going to sit here." ”
"What's not to do?" Yuan Peize frowned, and after listening to Li Mo's words, his expression seemed to be a little unhappy, and he picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip.
"Of course not, I don't want to sit with you." Limo suppressed the anger in her heart and gritted her teeth.
Yuan Peize tasted the tea calmly, with a lofty attitude, and said confidently: "This palace knows, you are still blaming me, and when the banquet is over, this palace will ask my father to accept you as the crown princess, how about it?"
When Li Mo heard this, she secretly sneered in her heart, this prince is too self-righteous, thinking that all women in the world want to be his crown princess.
"Heh, His Royal Highness the Prince is mistaken, Limo is not interested in His Royal Highness the Prince, please respect the prince!" Limo said coldly, turning around to leave.
Yuan Peize saw that Li Mo wanted to leave, so he immediately chased after him, reached out and wanted to hold Li Mo's hand, but was touched by Yuan Peize, Li Mo felt disgusted all over his body, shook off his hand, and asked very calmly: "Is there anything else going on with His Royal Highness the Prince?"
But Yuan Peize didn't want to let go like this, and reached out to hold Limo's hand again, "You listen to me......"
At this moment, Li Mo was pulled into her arms by a force, she looked up, and a handsome face like a god's mansion came into view, as if imprinted into her heart, unforgettable.
It's Yuan Hengjing.
"Uncle Huang," Yuan Peize looked at him in shock, and there seemed to be a hint of fear in his eyes.
"What is the prince doing?" Yuan Hengjing's charming smile bloomed on his face, but the cold light that inadvertently flowed out of his eyes was terrifying, "Could it be that she has fallen in love with the future princess of this king?" ”
"What!" Yuan Peize's face turned green all of a sudden.
"Remember, she is the woman of this king." Yuan Hengjing threw down a few words coldly, and then hugged Limo and sat down elsewhere.
Yuan Peize watched the two of them leave, and gritted his teeth fiercely, if he wasn't afraid that Yuan Hengjing would have a huge influence in the DPRK and dare to rob himself of women, he would be impatient?
Mu Xuanya, who was in the distance, was almost about to collapse with jealousy when she saw this scene, her originally clear eyes were filled with bloodthirsty jealousy at this moment, with a killing intent, glaring at Li Mo viciously, eager to cut her with a thousand knives......
Li Mo turned around, the corners of her mouth were raised just right, her smile was gentle but not intimate, dignified and polite but not alienated, "Thank you His Royal Highness King Heng for your help, the courtiers are grateful." ”
A complicated light flashed in Yuan Hengjing's eyes, and his gaze was fixed on Li Mo, for fear of missing any trace of emotion on her face.
Why did he feel that the person in front of him seemed a little strange, was it his delusion, or?
"The emperor has arrived!" The piercing and sharp voice sounded, making the people in the hall bow their heads respectfully.
"See the emperor!" Everyone knelt down and saluted.
"All love is exempt!" A majestic voice resounded in the main hall.
The emperor and empress, as well as many concubines in the harem, have been in place according to their concubine ranks, and the royal family and civil and military officials have also been given seats by order of the emperor after they visited.
Li Mo straightened up and sat down with Yuan Hengjing. Only then did he look at the entire hall with the peripheral vision of his eyes.
Sitting on the dragon chair at the top of the main hall and in the middle is Yuan Xuanhao, the emperor of Xiling Kingdom, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, long black hair tied up, wearing a crown and a bright yellow crown rope, although he is already in his forties, he is full of the breath of a king.
There is a phoenix chair under the dragon chair, and on the phoenix chair sits Zhao Ruoyao, the queen of Xiling Kingdom, wearing a palace dress embroidered with a phoenix in red, and the well-maintained skin and posture make the queen look only in her thirties.
On the other side sat the prince's biological mother, Concubine Shugui, who was not only arrogant and pampered, but also a ruthless woman.
Relying on his son to be the crown prince, he never put anyone in his eyes, he is arrogant, arrogant, and often reckless and provocative in front of the queen.
The banquet officially began, and more than a dozen blue-clad tulle dancers entered the venue enchantingly, singing and dancing.
As the music slides out of the fingertips of the virtuoso musicians, the dancers take turns to perform on stage, which is simply dazzling everyone's eyes.
