Chapter 353: The Night Banquet (Part II)

Chapter 353: The Night Banquet (II)

The annex is very elegant, imitating the royal garden everywhere and built.

Under the guidance of a team of golden-armored warriors, Fang Xiaobao and the others followed the cobblestone paved road and walked all the way.

Along the way, small streams and springs, rockery pavilions, exquisite and elegant, pleasing to the eye. From Gu Lie's mouth, he learned that the golden-armored warrior who greeted him was a forbidden army, directly under the dispatch of the ancient emperor, and was the backbone of the imperial capital of the Gu clan.

Ordinary courtiers could not use it. Including Gu Lie's brothers. But there is only one exception, it is the ancient emperor's favorite daughter, Princess Danhuang.

"You imperial sister is very favored!" Fang Xiaobao looked at Gu Lie and teased with a smile.

Gu Lie also said calmly and bluntly: "If the imperial sister is a man, this position of the prince ...... It's none of my business with my three brothers! ”

The fourth son of the ancient emperor. Fang Xiaobao has a deep relationship with Gu Lie, and he has also met with the eldest prince Gu Xi. But no matter how you look at it, they are not comparable to that Danhuang princess.

The daughter born to the queen has a strong maternal family, and it is even more rare for her to be gifted and her combat power is unfathomable.

Considering all the conditions, Fang Xiaobao believes that even if there are two princes left who have never met, they cannot be compared with the woman Danhuang. Even Gu Lie's second emperor brother, who guards the northern frontier, is known as the strongest of the younger generation of the Gu clan, and Gu Zhan, the king of Zhenbei.

Because in Fang Xiaobao's view, this king of Zhenbei is only floating on the surface, and his inner potential is also inferior.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiaobao looked at Gu Lie and asked, "Are your imperial brothers coming tonight?" ”

"Father's order, the imperial sister presided over the banquet, of course she will come if she can come!"

From Gu Lie's mouth, he learned that his three imperial brothers, except for the second elder Gu Zhan, did not return to the imperial capital due to the border war. The remaining boss Gu Xi, who is in the imperial capital, will definitely attend the banquet. The fourth emperor's brother, Gu Hao, King of Xijing, had rushed to the imperial capital from the fiefdom a few days ago.

Now it is estimated that these two should have come to the annex early.

"Although the second brother didn't come, he will definitely send a representative!"

According to Gu Lie's analysis, his second emperor brother couldn't pull away, and his second sister-in-law Duanmuxiu definitely attended the meeting. The reason is very simple, the other party is from the Duanmu family, the strongest family in the imperial capital, and it is also Gu Xuan's mother's family.

Her second sister-in-law and the imperial sister are cousins.

"Relatives!"

Fang Xiaobao looked at Gu Lie with a surprised face, shook his head and said, "In this way, I'm afraid your imperial sister's path is enough!" ”

Gu Lie understood what he meant, and smiled: "Not really! The third emperor sister has the most clear distinction between public and private, she is a member of the Gu family, and everything is based on the supremacy of the interests of the Gu family, and she will never be nepotistic! ”

"I hope so!" Fang Xiaobao shrugged. Regardless of whether the woman was like this or not, there was one thing anyway, he and the other party had already formed a bond. Therefore, if you want to go through the door, Gu Lie will find a way by himself, and he has no way.

Talk and walk along the way. Soon, everyone arrived at the center of the garden. When I looked at it, I saw a building in front of me, sitting south and facing north, with a peculiar appearance. The southern half is very Western. The north cornices flow tiles, antique and antique, typical Chinese style.

At the gate. All the maids in palace clothes stood on both sides. Seeing Gu Lie leading Fang Xiaobao and them to arrive, he immediately saluted.

"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!"

Gu Lie is the fifth oldest in the family. However, according to the rules of the Chinese royal family, women do not occupy the ranks, so the outside world is mostly called the four princes.

"Brothers, please!"

It's my own sister, and I'm half the master. Gu Lie stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please, beckoning Fang Xiaobao and the others to walk in.

"This is the Fengyi Palace, which means that there is a phoenix to come...... In the year of the third sister and Lu, the father rewarded Xiaotangshan and hired the top craftsmen from the two major countries of the East and West to build an exclusive palace! ”

Walk through the door. There is a long corridor in front of you. The floor is covered with exquisite carpets, and the four walls are inlaid with relief decorations, which is luxurious. While leading the way, Gu Lie introduced the origin of this Fengyi Palace.

Fang Xiaobao looked east and west, and finally gave a conclusion: "East and West are combined, and they are nondescript...... Cracked bones, your sister's aesthetic vision is problematic! ”

Gu Lie was speechless after hearing this. Anyone who comes here will be amazed by the unique architecture and the extravagant dΓ©cor. When it comes to this guy's mouth, it becomes nondescript.

The third sister was inside to receive the guests...... Xiaobao, don't talk nonsense when you see her! Gu Lie advised. He was afraid of Fang Xiaobao's broken mouth, seeing that his third emperor sister was unscrupulous, if he angered the other party, his hope of competing for the throne could be said to be completely shattered.

"Ah!" Fang Xiaobao promised to jump crisply. But I was thinking in my heart that Lao Tzu had already offended this girl, and he would say a few unpleasant words to disgust her.

Besides, it wasn't he who took the initiative to provoke, but the other party had a bad idea.

Walk through the 100-meter promenade. Then we came to the main hall of the banquet, a hall that covered an area of a kilometer. The interior layout is similar to the exterior, with half a glazed dome and crystal lamp hanging, typical of Western decorative style. Half of the mahogany carved decoration, antique, very Chinese characteristics.

The entire hall is divided into three sections. On the left-hand side, along the wall, there are a variety of delicacies, in the style of a Western buffet, with dance floor music. On the right-hand side, dozens of palace maids are interspersed with mahogany screens, serving exquisite dishes and pastries according to the needs of the guests.

In the middle of the open area, three or five guests gathered to talk and chat. When Fang Xiaobao and the others arrived, there were already nearly 100 people in the hall, bustling and very lively.

"One banquet, two receptions...... Although it is distinctive, it is flashy and unrealistic, and it has a bad review! ”

Fang Xiaobao turned on the 'stinky mouth' mode again, pouting and giving comments. He didn't like it, but someone did. I saw Zhang Biao seeing the buffet in the Western Hall, which was filled with hundreds of delicacies, and immediately aroused the cravings in his stomach.

"Buffet! My favorite! ”

He cheered. I ran straight over and started enjoying the exquisite buffet. The mad lion and a few other rough goods couldn't help it and followed.

"No taste!"

Fang Xiaobao shook his head. Then he beckoned his friends and others and prepared to go to the booth. In his words, big eaters have to choose good, the buffet is all slots, and ordering is the king.

"Xiaobao, the Third Emperor Sister is over there, let's go over and say hello!"

Gu Lie didn't know that Fang Xiaobao's invitation was presented by Gu Xuan in person. At this moment, he saw that the Third Emperor Sister was not far away, and immediately beckoned Fang Xiaobao to come over and introduce them to each other.

Without waiting for Fang Xiaobao's approval, Gu Lie had already dragged him and strode over. At first glance, Fang Xiaobao saw Gu Xuan wearing a violet dress, with exquisite makeup, graceful and luxurious, and radiant.

The woman was talking and laughing with a few hairy people. Moreover, Yang Maozi is all Fang Xiaobao's acquaintances.

"Hello, Lao Luo!"

Fang Xiaobao walked over with a smile. For the first time, he greeted the old Western man who was standing face to face with Gu Xuan.
