Moon Shadow even today's plan is not to harm Chu Lixue, and looking at Xiyue's appearance is also very tough, it is better to be a favor and let Xiyue take Princess Chen away, anyway, she will participate in the palace banquet in a while, and then see the opportunity.

Xiyue pulled Chu Lixue out of the Zhaoyang Palace, "You, it really scared me, Ning Xiang told me that you were summoned by this woman, and I rushed over immediately, how about it?" She didn't do anything to you, did she? Xiyue anxiously looked up and down Chu Lixue Dao.

"I'm fine, you've really changed since you got married." Chu Lixue smiled lightly.

"Really? That's getting better? Or has it gone bad? Xiyue said with a pair of watery eyes.

"Of course, it's getting better and better, you're no longer a little girl, you're becoming more calm." Chu Lixue praised without hesitation.

Hearing this, Xiyue laughed, "It's not that Jiang Tian, who said all day long that I want to be a housewife, otherwise it won't be me who will be seen as a joke, but my father." Xiyue complained slightly.

"Jiang Tian, that's all for your good, don't be in the midst of blessings and not know blessings."

"Well, I get it. However, the princess of Yuexi summoned you just now, she must have wanted to make some moves, but because of my arrival, she had to pause, you have to be careful, she will definitely take advantage of the topic to play at the palace banquet later. Xiyue said solemnly.

"Well, I'll be careful." Chu Lixue smiled lightly.

At the beginning of the banquet, the courtiers walked into the main hall with their wives and daughters, and sat down according to their ranks. Suddenly, the emperor walked in with the two new favorites, and even, let Yueying and Yuehua sit at the same table, no matter how unhappy the Empress Bai was in her heart, she didn't dare to show it, after all, she no longer had any use value.

Concubine Chang sat at the bottom of her hand, looking at the smug appearance of Moon Shadow and Yuehua, the anger in her heart was difficult to suppress, their location was originally hers, but now everything is different.

"Your Majesty, the concubine picked a plate of grapes with her heart, this is your favorite food, the concubine will send it to you." Concubine Chang smiled lightly.

Hearing this, the emperor glanced at Concubine Chang lightly, and was about to speak, but was preempted by Yuehua, "Sister Concubine Chang, this grape is not a rare thing, my sister heard that the emperor was for his sister, and asked Rang Rang to pay tribute to lychees from Lingnan, thousands of miles away, and even Princess Chen said, when the concubine laughed on the red dust, no one knew that it was lychees." There are lychees on my sister's table, but I only give the emperor grapes, which shows that in my sister's heart, the emperor's position ......"

"Slut, what did you say? Do you want to separate the relationship between the palace and the emperor? It sounds good that you are the princess and noble daughter of Yuexi, in fact, you are the hostages sent to Beichen by Yuexi, if one day you Yuexi want to betray Beichen, just kill the two of you sacrificial flags. Chang Concubine puffed up.

Concubine Chang's words fell into the ears of the emperor very harshly, his own sister, who was originally married to Nanchu and Qin, was also killed by Kong Qi to sacrifice the flag. Concubine Chang's words undoubtedly hit the emperor's sore spot, and if he wants to say that there is anyone to be sorry for in his life, it is only his own sister Princess Anping.

"Presumptuous." The Emperor said angrily.

Seeing that the emperor was furious and pushed away the moon shadow and moon blossom snuggled in her arms, Concubine Chang was secretly proud in her heart, these two girls were still young, so naturally they couldn't fight her. But she forgot that these princesses and noblewomen were destined to fight to the end from birth.

At home, in order to win the affection of their elders, they have to fight with their brothers and sisters, and even push others into the abyss for their own interests. And Chang Concubine's little trick is undoubtedly very ridiculous in the eyes of Moon Shadow and Moon Hua.

"Moon Shadow, Moon Hua, look, the emperor is already angry, why don't you kneel down and admit your mistakes." Chang Concubine raised his voice.

Hearing Chang Concubine say this, Chu Lixue almost squirted out a sip of tea, is this Chang Concubine naΓ―ve or stupid, the emperor is obviously annoyed by her, how could she think that the emperor is annoyed by Yueying and Yuehua.

"What I said about you, come here, drag Chang Concubine down to me and send her into the cold palace." The Emperor said angrily.

What the? Into the cold? Chang Concubine felt that her ears were buzzing and she entered the cold palace, which meant that she would never have a bright future. What kind of place is that cold palace? The people who were locked up there were all people who were rejected by the emperor, and there they had no one to serve them, and they ate leftovers every day, not to mention that if it was fine in summer, in winter, they didn't even have winter clothes. The cold palace is tantamount to the horror of hell on earth.

Thinking of this, Concubine Chang hurriedly broke free from the guards who dragged her, quickly climbed to the emperor's feet, hugged the emperor's legs tightly and cried: "Your Majesty, these days when the concubines entered the palace, you have always loved the concubines, and the concubines don't know what they did wrong, so that you hate the concubines like this, but please also ask the emperor to watch the concubines serve her wholeheartedly, don't talk about the concubines entering the cold palace, even let the concubines be nobles, and the concubines are also willing." ”

Chang Concubine cried pear blossoms with rain, naturally caused the emperor's pity, before Yueying and Yuehua entered the palace, this Chang Concubine was his favorite woman, although this Chang Concubine was also a little arrogant, but didn't he just like her character? Now that he really wants to put her in the cold palace, he is somewhat unbearable, but he is the emperor, Chrysostom Yuyan, how can he easily change what he has said?

"Concubine Chang, from today on, you will be grounded in your own palace, and you can't take a step out of the palace gate without my permission." The emperor said coldly.

This is already what he can do, at least he doesn't have to stay with those women with Chang Concubine, and he hasn't demoted her position, and he is already considered merciful to be grounded in the palace.

Hearing the emperor's order, the guards took Chang Concubine down, Chu Lixue looked at the figure of Chang Concubine leaving and declining, and couldn't help sighing, as soon as she entered the palace gate, she thought that this palace was a paradise on earth, but who would have thought that this brocade clothes and food, the days of heaven on earth were piled up with other people's lives and bones.

Suddenly, the emperor's eyes fell on Chu Lixue's body, and now, he already knew that Princess Chen was still the original Chu Lixue, and his heart throbbed a little.

When Moon Shadow raised her eyes, she happened to see the emperor seeing Princess Chen's infatuated appearance, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, Nangong Anyi, don't you like Princess Chen? Didn't you always want to keep her for yourself? Now King Chen is still protecting the country of Beichen, if you despise his princess, then he will definitely not protect you, the faint king.

Thinking of this, the corners of Moon Shadow's mouth raised a good-looking arc and said: "Your Majesty, the concubines heard that Princess Chen and her people have opened a Xin Yaxuan in the city, where different programs will be staged every day, including singing and dancing, storytelling, and opera, which can be described as everything. And the concubines also heard that these song and dance choreography and story books are all from the hands of Princess Chen, and the performances of the girls of Xin Yaxuan are already good, it is conceivable that Princess Chen's songs and dances must be even more amazing. ”

Hearing this, the emperor was overjoyed, he had long heard that Xin Yaxuan's programs were all from Chu Lixue, and Chu Lixue had never performed on such an occasion, so he was naturally looking forward to Chu Lixue's show.

Just now, Xiyue also reminded her to beware of the Moon Shadow's troubles, and after a while, there were already people who were anxious to be embarrassed.

"Princess Chen, the concubine wants to see your performance, would you like to put on a show for me and the concubine?" The Emperor said excitedly.

"The emperor's courtiers are unwilling to perform, the courtiers are not plays, why does the emperor humiliate the prince like this?" Chu Lixue said coldly.

"It's really humiliating you, I just want to see your show."

"Concubines don't know how to perform." Chu Lixue said lightly.

"Princess, why be so modest? Could it be that in Princess Chen's heart, the emperor is not qualified to watch your performance? The princess knows that this is a great crime of disrespect. It is to cut off the heads and raze the three tribes. Moon Shadow coldly threatened.

Hearing Moon Shadow say this, Chu Lixue sneered in her heart, although this Moon Shadow can fight against Chang Concubine, but to deal with herself, she is still too young.

"Your Majesty, can you let the courtiers and the concubine say a few whispers?"

Hearing Chu Lixue say that she had something to say to Princess Chen, the emperor naturally agreed, and got the consent of the emperor and Moon Shadow, Chu Lixue got up and walked towards Moon Shadow, and then whispered a few words in Moon Shadow's ear, and then returned to his seat with a light smile.

The emperor thought that he could see Princess Chen's performance, but the ending disappointed him, not only did Princess Chen not have any performance, but even the concubine no longer made things difficult for the other party.

Although there were some changes to the original plan, he still had to carry it on. Thinking of this, the emperor said loudly: "The border pass cannot be without guards for a day, so I have decided that from tomorrow, King Chen and Jiang Tian, the two of you will be stationed at the border pass of Dongyu and Nanchu for a long time. ”

Hearing this, King Chen was not surprised, the emperor's intention to keep himself away from the court was obvious, but he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd.

Jiang Tiangang wanted to refute, but heard the emperor continue: "The two of you have been stationed outside for a long time, and you will definitely remember your relatives at home, so I want to let Princess Chen and Xiyue move into the palace to live, and I can help you take care of them." ”

What kind of care, this is clearly to ask them to keep a hostage in the palace, according to the emperor's temperament, he can't think of this at all, this must be the idea of Moon Shadow or Yuehua.

Only, what is the purpose of doing this? He and Jiang Tian have been stationed at the border for a long time, although they are far away from the court and relatives, but at least they can ensure the safety of their relatives at home. But this emperor is not a Ming monarch, if Chu Lixue is really left in the palace, I don't know what will happen.

King Chen didn't dare to think about it, but he was afraid that the emperor did this because the drunkard didn't mean to drink.
