Chapter 409: The Tea Banquet with Bright Swords and Guns

"Wechen has seen His Second Highness!" Yun Qing said while saluting, Le Xuanyu heard Yun Qing's words and immediately understood that the person in front of him was the second prince - Yun Zi, the most prestigious candidate to become the crown prince, and also one of the ten people in the Four Kingdoms Strategy that Ye Yan had mentioned.

She naturally remembered such a person, but after she finished playing, she didn't expect Yun Zi himself to be much more handsome than in the portrait, she saluted Yun Zi slightly, "The second highness that the slave has seen, Your Highness is healthy!" ”

Yun Zi smiled and glanced at Le Xuan, who was saluting, and raised his hand to signal the two of them to get up, "Yun Qing, you and I grew up since childhood, and now that no one is here, you don't want to see outside!" ”

Yun Zi raised Yun Qing's hand, Yun Qing smiled lightly and withdrew his hands, "Second Highness, there should still be etiquette!" ”

Le Yu took a step back in a playful manner, letting Yun Qing and Yun Zi walk side by side with Gao Yu, while Le Yu and Blue Feather Fan walked together.

She looked at Yun Zi's back, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that the emperor has very few heirs, and at this age, there are only three people: His Royal Highness, Second Highness, and Third Highness, why is this?" ”

Lan Yu smiled lightly and shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, Ran Fan smiled lightly and didn't make a sound, but her little expression was seen by Le Xuan, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and she teased: "Well, you really don't know, after all, you are not Yun Qing's henchman......"

"Who said we weren't Childe's henchmen?" Not to be outdone, Fan Qing glared at Le Xuanxuan, lowered his voice and said in detail: "Because the emperor loves and pampers the mothers and concubines of His Royal Highness, Second Highness, and Third Highness, so only the three mothers are given gifts to give birth to His Royal Highnesses......

Lan Yu suddenly let out a heavy "shhh", and the two of them looked ahead together, and found that Yun Qing and Yun Zi suddenly stopped at the place of the arch, and Le Yu took a small step forward with a little curiosity.

Yun Qing took a step back, the two collided together, she let out a muffled snort, Yun Zi glanced back at the two of them, and said with a smile: "Yun Qing, your maid really doesn't look like a maid!" Yun smiled lightly, and glanced at Le Xuan out of the corner of his eyes, "What His Royal Highness said is extremely right!" ”

Le Xuanyu behind him glared at Yun Qing viciously, "Who the hell are you who don't have eyes?" Yun Zi, who was looking at Yun lightly, passed through the arch, and pulled her to her side with one hand, and his fingers deftly hooked the hair hanging down from her forehead to the back of her head, and teased politely: "If I have a pair of eyes on my back, wouldn't it be a monster?" ”

Le Xuan tugged at the corners of her mouth, and looked at Yun Qing, who thought she was telling a funny joke, without smiling, "Hehe......" When Yun Qing wanted to help her fix the phoenix flower hairpin on Xianyun bun, Le Yuxuan took a step back to avoid his hand, Yun Qing looked at his empty hand and couldn't help frowning with a wry smile, "Aren't you afraid of me?" ”

Le Yuxuan snorted, and when he wanted to refute Yun Qing, Gao Yu brought a few little eunuchs to them and said flatteringly: "Young Master Yun Qing, please ......."

Yun nodded lightly, and took a step forward, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Le Xuanyu did not move, holding her hand with one hand and half-pulling into the place where the tea banquet was held, she glanced at the surrounding environment, the main seat is located in the east, there is a rockery in front of it, there is a small stage, and the tables and chairs around are radial, all centered on the stage.

They were led by Gao Yu to the stage, facing the emperor and the queen mother sitting high on the main seat, Yun Qing bowed three times and bowed nine times in the palace to the two, "Please ask the emperor and the queen mother to surrender, Weichen is late because of the delay, and please atone for the emperor and the queen mother!" ”

Le Yuyu learned to come to Lan Yu and bowed to Yuntian and the Queen Mother, bowing her head. Yuntian Jian raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice, "Why is it delayed?" ”

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and turned the Buddha bead bracelet in her hand, "Your Majesty!" Yun Qing, a bad boy, doesn't come to the palace on a good day, and now you fall to him, isn't it that the grandson of this palace will not enter the palace in the future? ”

Yun Tian frowned, looked at Yun Qing, who was silent but really knew how to do this, and waved his hand, "That's it!" Now that the Queen Mother intercedes with you, she will spare you today. I heard Gao Yu say that you brought a female companion who is like a flower and a jade, and the country and the city are all overwhelmed, quickly tell the Queen Mother who it is? ”

Yun Qing got up and bowed to the Queen Mother and Yun Tian, and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, Gonggong Gao praised it in seconds, but she is just an ordinary woman!" ”

The corners of Le Yu's mouth twitched, her eyes glared at Gao Yu, she couldn't wait to perform a live performance, after all, she didn't want to provoke the bunch of noble ladies who admired Yu Yunqing, and she didn't want to become the target of the public today, so that she would be the enemy on her back.

"Huh? This is the first time you have brought a female companion here, and this palace wants to take a good look at what kind of young lady has entered the eyes of my family! ”

The Queen Mother's phoenix eyes flashed, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she said with a thousand demeanors, Yun Qing looked at Yun Tian and nodded in agreement, but turned her head slightly and whispered: "Yu Yu, you still don't want to say hello to the emperor and the queen mother?" ”

Le Yuxuan gritted her teeth, knowing that she could not escape her doom, she could only take a few steps forward on her knees, but this behavior made the Queen Mother hook the corners of her mouth with satisfaction, and whispered to the cloud sky beside her, "Your Majesty! Do you know this little girl? ”

Yun Tian looked at Le Xuan and shook his head, and Le Xuan learned from Yun Qing and made three bows and nine bows, "The slave has seen the emperor and the queen mother, long live my king, long live long live, long live the queen mother, long live the queen mother......, long live, long live,

In the end, she buried her head with her own head, in case the young ladies who were now sweeping her eyes saw her face, and the Queen Mother chuckled and looked at Le Xuan, who was stupidly bowing three times and bowing nine times, "Raise your head and show this palace!" ”

Le Xuanyu wanted to cry without tears, pursed her lips, and slowly raised her head. And the rainy day, who was drinking tea, was shocked by the sudden new Le Xuanxuan in front of him, and pointed at Le Xuanxuan breathlessly with one hand and said, "Ahem, cough, cough...... Unexpectedly...... cough cough cough ...... It's you...... cough cough cough ......"

Gao Yu hurriedly patted Yuntian on the back, but the scene exploded because of Yuntian's words, and they all started talking. The ladies of the noble family were gloating and laughing at her, and the Queen Mother looked at Le Xuanyu with a curious face, did she look back at the emperor who was coughing, "Your Majesty, do you know this girl?" ”

Yun Tian smiled coldly and raised his eyebrows, "Know!" How can you not know it? ”

After all, he took away the soybean cake and the box of soybean milk cake that she made, he originally wanted to save these two things for dinner later, who knew that he asked Gao Yu to bring them back to the palace, the soybean cake fell into a ball of powder, and the soy milk cake melted, but the imperial chef couldn't make it, so he ate that thing and went to the official room all night. Le Xuanyu looked at Yun Tian in confusion and asked Yun Qing in a low voice, "Why is the emperor's eyes on me so fierce?" ”

Yun Qing recalled the news in the palace that the emperor had been pulling all night because he had eaten the wrong thing, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyes were smiling, "Empress Dowager Qi, today's tea banquet Taihui gave an edict to Wei Chen, asking Wei Chen to bring a female companion." Ran Yun is not talented, and he can't get into the eyes of the young ladies of the family, so he has no choice but to bring only the chef who has recently entered the house - Le Xuan! ”

"Cook, this palace doesn't believe it!" The Queen Mother looked at Le Xuanyu who was dressed nobly, and her words and deeds were thousands of polite, but she was a silly girl who was vague and overly modest in etiquette.

When Le Xuanyu heard Yun Qing introduce herself like this, she felt cold in her heart, and glanced around from the corner of her eye, and found that the nobles were staring at her with the eyes of jackals, tigers and leopards.

There was a chill down her spine. She silently wrote down Yun Qing's introduction to her face, and hurriedly bowed to the Queen Mother, "Qi Qi Queen Mother, the slave maid is Yun Qinggongzi's cook, and the emperor has seen the slave maid, and praised the slave maid for the delicious food." ”

Yun Tian looked at Le Xuan, who was cutting first and then playing, and snorted coldly, "Queen Mother, she is indeed the cook I gave to Yun Qing." The Queen Mother suddenly raised her eyebrows, and Yun Tian cleared her throat, "I promised the Queen Mother not to punish Yun Qing, but I didn't say that I wouldn't punish Yun Qing's female companion!" ”

Le Xuanyu stared at Yun Tian with wide eyes, and looked at Yun Qing for help the next moment. Yun Qing was not in a hurry and said with a gentle face: "Emperor Qiqi, if you want to be punished, you will be punished together, you can't accept Weichen's share of punishment just because she is a Weichen cook!" If the world knows, it will definitely damage the emperor's wisdom! ”

Yun Tian didn't expect Yun Qing to wrinkle the punishment on his body, and after frowning his sword eyebrows and muttering for a while, he consulted the Queen Mother who was watching the play on the side, "Queen Mother, how do you think you should punish the two of them?" ”

The Queen Mother flicked her sleeves and smiled kindly: "This palace is reluctant to punish Yun Qing, a bad boy, if you want to punish him, you must enter the palace to visit the palace three times a month in the future!" ”

Yun Tian nodded with too much affection, "As the Queen Mother said, as for Le Xuan's ......" Le Xuanxuan exhaled lightly, and looked at the Queen Mother gratefully to minimize the punishment, and it was impossible for Yun Tian to punish her too harshly.

"Since today is a tea banquet, then you can make a cup of tea that no one has drunk on the spot!" Le Xuan frowned, looking at what seemed to be the lightest punishment, but it was also the most severe punishment, a cup of tea that no one had drunk was afraid that it would twist the head on her neck, Yun Qing frowned, and was about to intercede for Le Xuan.

"Thank you for the grace of the emperor and the queen mother! Let's taste the tea that we haven't drunk before! A female voice sounded first, causing Le Xuan to turn her head and see that the person was wearing a purple tulle dress, and bowed to Yuntian and the Queen Mother with a thousand demeanors.

And the fan behind Le Xuanxuan glanced at the man in disgust, "Le Xuan, you must tune it out, otherwise Lu Ziyan will come to pester the son again!" Le Xuanyu tugged at the corners of her mouth and said to herself: "Why do you say it as if it is effortless?" ”

"Huh! If you don't thank you for a long time, is it because Jiang Lang is exhausted? Another noble girl teased, and another noble girl followed suit and said, "Yiyi, don't be naΓ―ve." If she is really a cook, the son will really take her out, and she will naturally hook her as a cook...... Confused Childe ......"

Le Yuyu raised her eyebrows, and in the face of these girls who were more expensive than the other, she sneered, "Slave and maid, thank Lord Longen, and ask the emperor to allow Gaoyu's father-in-law to help me prepare some things!" ”

Lu Ziyan sneered at Le Xuan, who had killed herself, and sat quietly on the side with a light smile. Yun Tian nodded in permission, Le Yu asked Gao Yu something in a low voice, and after a while, Yun Qing asked worriedly before leaving the stage, "Can you?" ”

Le Yuyu frowned with a wry smile and smiled bitterly, "No, you have to!" ”
