Chapter 168: The Imperial Court Banquet

Two days later, the group arrived at Laizhou County, and Mo Li now knew that the distance between Wenshui County and Xidaying was not close, and returning to the capital from Wenshui County was not on the same route as going to Xidaying, no wonder he did not pass through Wenshui County last time he returned to Beijing from Xidaying.

Mo Jinxi was on the way back to Beijing, how could he wake up on the mountain fifty miles away from Xidaying?

Mo Li was puzzled, could it be that from the time Mo Jinxi fell off the cliff to the time she woke up, what else happened in between?

After thinking about it all the way, he didn't figure it out, Mo Li simply didn't think about it, maybe Mo Jinhua would know what was going on, and ask him after returning to the capital.

When they arrived in Laizhou County, they did not live in Murong Chu's house, but lived in an inn.

As soon as she settled down, Murong Chu personally sent a set of men's clothes and the ointment she had used to disguise.

Mo Li saw the familiar bottles and cans, and raised her eyebrows in surprise: "These things haven't been thrown away?" ”

"Just touch it up this time, but don't make yourself so ugly again." Murong Chu put the thing down with some reluctance.

Mo Li felt that there was a breath in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down, so he could only mutter, "Why is it ugly, Sister Ling'er still took a fancy to me at that time!" ”

The corners of Murong Chu's mouth twitched, the little girl actually dared to mention that matter, gritted her teeth and said, "Warning you, don't mess with flowers!" ”

"Where do I have?" Mo Li wanted to refute, but when he saw that he had a dark face, he immediately changed to a flattering smile, "Don't worry, General, no matter how beautiful the beauty is, I won't take another look." ”

Murong Chu couldn't do anything about her, shook his head helplessly, and said: "The official who escorted the congratulatory gift will come to Laizhou County tomorrow, it is inconvenient for a girl to follow me, and the meaning of the Seventh Prince is also to let you and Ruoping dress up as men, just say that they are his doormen, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble." ”

"What about Jinyu? He's so small, why doesn't he look like a doorman, right? ”

"I was about to discuss this with you, and Jin Yu said that he wanted to stay in Xidaying for a while. I think this is a good idea, the current guard general of the West Battalion, General Hua, has some friendship with me, Jinyu handed it over to him, and I don't worry, but I don't know what Li'er's opinion is? ”

Mo Li thought about it and felt that this was also a good way, after all, Mo Jinyu had not really experienced the life of the military camp, and the time they went to Xiliang was just an opportunity.

So she nodded: "Since you and Jinyu both think so, then let's do it." It's just that Jin Yu is still young, and he has never left home, so he wants to cause trouble for General Hua. ”

Murong Chu rubbed Mo Li's head and said with a smile: "Li'er always says that Jinyu is small, aren't you small?" I think Jinyu is quite sensible. ”

"Hey, I'm not small at all." Mo Li rolled her eyes and said coquettishly.

"It's just the right size, and I like it." Halfway through Mo Li's words, he suddenly realized the ambiguity in his words, unconsciously covered his chest, and then looked at Murong Chu's gradually moving gaze, and suddenly blushed with shame.

Murong Chu looked at the shy little face, only to feel that his throat was tight, and with a stretch of his long arm, he dragged the little girl sitting on the chair next to him into his arms, and lowered his head to print the sweet cherry lips.

Mo Li couldn't help but sit on his lap, her small mouth was tightly gagged, a big hand slowly climbed up to the softness, her strength was instantly drained, she wanted to struggle, but she was tightly clamped, she twisted her body uneasily, but a low voice came from her ears: "Don't move, let me hold for a while." ”

The blazing breath made Mo Li stiffen, and the fiery existence under him was changing, although he had never had a boyfriend in his previous life, he had also peeped at *****, how could he not know what was changing?

This kind of realization made Mo Li really dare not move, and curled up in Murong Chu's arms with a red face, only hoping that this man could restrain himself and not make any further moves.

Murong Chu half-squinted his eyes, hugged the person in his arms tightly, tried to calm the surging qi and blood, and sighed softly for a long time: "Little girl, when will I marry you back to the house!" ”

Early the next morning, Murong Chu personally sent Mo Jinyu to the West Daying. In the afternoon, the officials who escorted the congratulatory gifts arrived in Laizhou County, and after the two compartments met, they rested for a day, and the procession marched to Xiliang.

Mo Li and Ruoping made a simple modification of their faces with ointment, and they looked like two young men with clear eyebrows.

Although the accompanying officials did not believe that the young prince would be the disciple of the Seventh Prince, since the Seventh Prince said so, Murong Chu, as the deputy envoy, did not bother to ask, and others along the way did not dare to raise any objections.

After Helian Tug unified the Hu tribe, the capital was set in Hexiangcheng, and when the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty arrived here, it was August 18, two days before his enthronement ceremony.

As a vassal state, Helian Tug held a banquet at the imperial court that night to personally greet the envoys.

Mo Li, as an entourage, entered the imperial court with Murong Chu and the seventh prince Zhong Hanmiao.

Xiliang has just been founded, and the imperial court is the palace renovated by Helian Tuge before, although it is not as majestic as the Great Zhou Palace, but it looks brilliant.

The dinner was held in the Purple Desert Palace next to the main hall, and the palace was decorated with a noble atmosphere, showing the demeanor of a king everywhere.

Mo Li was mixed in the entourage, and when he followed Murong Chu and Zhong Hanmiao into the Purple Desert Palace, there were already many people in the hall.

Without waiting for them to speak, Helian Tuge got up and greeted each other and said, "The Seventh Prince, General Murong has come from afar, and it has been hard work. ”

Zhong Hanmiao arched his hand, which was regarded as a return gift: "King Jin is polite." ”

And Murong Chu was still an iceberg face, but he bowed his head slightly, and he didn't even say a word.

The palace maid dressed in Hu Ren costume came over and led everyone to the vacant seat closest to Helian Tug and sat down, Zhong Hanmiao and Murong Chu sat in the front row, and Mo Li sat behind them.

The palace maids and attendants came out one after another, and one after another the dishes were placed on the small table in front of everyone.

Helian Tuge raised his glass and said loudly: "Come, let's drink this cup together and welcome the Seven Princes and General Murong who have come from afar." ”

Everyone raised their glasses, saying words of welcome and the like, Mo Li was not interested in these entertainments, but as everyone raised their glasses, they put all their energy into the fragrant roast lamb chops.

She hadn't eaten barbecue since she came to this world, and she couldn't help but swallow when she smelled that smell just now.

The music in the hall sounded, and the Maiko dressed in the costume of the Hu people swung their waists and sang and danced to cheer up, and while the staggered time, Mo Li had already twisted up a piece of roast lamb chops and took a bite.

Well, it tastes good, the skin is crispy on the outside, and the inside is tender, and you will know that this is the best lamb when you eat it.

Murong Chu didn't like this kind of social scene, and he was not interested in drinking with unfamiliar people, but his lips were slightly sticky to the wine, and he put down the glass.
