He Xuan's thin body was slumped on the ground, and under the gorgeous clothes, his body trembled unconsciously, driving the beads all over his body to make a sound. She never imagined that on the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday banquet, such a terrible change would occur.

Her father, Emperor Zhou Ming, the son of the Great Zhou Dynasty, her mother Cai, and her younger brother Ji Tai all died overnight. And the culprit of all this turned out to be his husband who he loved wholeheartedly, King Mixian of Chuwen.

Back then, the twelve-year-old Princess Hexuan met for the first time the fourth prince of Chu sent as a proton at the banquet of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Mi Xian, who was only ten years old, looked polite and polite, and inadvertently looked at He Xuan and smiled slightly, and she blushed unconsciously.

Although there is fine clothes and food in the palace, if there is no company of Mi Xian, it will be boring after all.

After less than four years of getting along, He Xuan had already fallen in love with this man and fell in love with him for a long time.

Zhou Chu and the two countries have always been good friends, and under the constant request of Hexuan, he finally looked forward to his father's marriage. Then he and his colt lived a carefree and quiet life in the princess's mansion for two years.

On the year of Mi Xian's sixteenth birthday, King Chu Huai was seriously ill and sent someone to pick up the proton, and Hexuan, as Mi Xian's wife, willingly went to Chu with her husband. Unexpectedly, the king of Chu died in less than two years. Mi Xian eliminated public opinion and inherited the throne of Chu, and she naturally became the queen of Great Chu.

The noisy footsteps disturbed Hexuan's thoughts, she looked up slightly, it turned out to be Princess Tianwei, the fifth emperor sister, and breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, her gaffe was not seen by outsiders.

"Fifth Emperor Sister, why didn't you come in a hurry without a report? It's been such a big thing, the king hasn't come to see me, and I don't know if he'll be... ”

He Xuan stabilized his mind, stood up, stretched out his hand, pulled the slender fingers of the slim Princess Tianwei, held back his sadness, smiled reluctantly and continued: "Fortunately, you live here, otherwise the Great Zhou will be destroyed, and the sword will be gone, I'm afraid I will never see my sister again!" ”

"Yes, Second Emperor Sister," Princess Tianwei inadvertently stroked her face with her hand, squinted her eyes, looked at Second Sister He Xuan with a coquettish smile, and said: "With such a flower and moon appearance like mine, it is difficult to compare with me in the beauty of all countries, isn't it a pity to be ruined by the little people?" As for the king ... Sister, relax, King Chu has always doted on his sister, and I don't think I will be cold to my sister because of my father. It's my sister, Da Zhou was attacked by the enemy this time, and his national strength has been weakened for a long time. As the saying goes, if you become a king, you will lose a king, and your sister will be the queen of Chu, and you must not blame the king of Chu for your petty temperament! ”

Watching He Xuan slowly stabilize his mind, Tianwei took a leisurely sip of the tea placed on the table, and continued: "I have a few news to bring to you today, I don't know which one my sister wants to hear first?" ”

He Xuan was originally depressed, and he blamed Mi Xian for feeling sorry for his father, but he also knew in his heart that the situation of Da Zhou was no longer what it used to be, and it was a matter of time before the country was destroyed.

However, Tianwei's reminder just now comforted herself, she was the same childhood sweetheart as Mixian, and she shouldn't resent him at this moment.

It's just that her father, who has loved her for many years... It's a pity to die!

As the royal family of the Great Zhou, she should have stepped forward, but she was just a little woman. He Xuan thought of her origin and current identity, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but it was inconvenient to say a lot of words in public.

It's just that Hexuan is curious, what else can be important at this juncture?

So he blurted out: "Sister, tell me if you have any news!" ”

Princess Tianwei stroked the gems on her peach-colored sleeves and said solemnly: "Do you know that my maternal grandfather Zhao An was named the Duke of Zhou Ping by the king, and governed the land left by the Great Zhou on behalf of the king!" ”

He Xuan felt a chill in his heart, and said with a smile: "Zhao Gong has always been serious about the old city, and it is naturally not wrong for the king to entrust the city to him." After thinking about it, the fifth sister, like herself, has always been innocent and ignorant of the world, so she relaxed.

In an instant, Princess Tianwei smoothed her smiling face, and said with a solemn and serious expression: "I heard that the eldest prince just reprimanded the eldest prince in the imperial garden, and I saw him stabbing the second prince with my own eyes, and it is said that the eldest prince also spoke ill of the second prince. The king has already issued a decree to rebuke the crown prince. ”

"What?" He Xuan almost fell off the chair, and said in his heart, what happened to this kid recently, he was reprimanded by the king three times and twice. But after all, he is only six years old, young and ignorant, just teach well, why not give an order to reprimand! "Sister, is this serious?"

"Seriously, this is what my little sister saw with her own eyes in the Imperial Garden." Princess Tianwei's face showed a sworn look, and she couldn't help but believe it.

Princess Tianwei saw that He Xuan had not lost her temper, so she continued with a gloomy expression: "Sister, do you have any good news you want to hear?" ”

"My good sister, tell me everything you know, and don't joke with my sister." Although He Xuan said this, there was still a smile on his face, but there was a faint uneasiness on his beautiful face as white as the moon, and his fingers secretly clenched his sleeves, unconsciously holding his breath.

"Although my mother is the eldest daughter of my grandfather, the Great Zhou has been destroyed, and my identity as a noble princess of the Great Zhou no longer exists. I know that my sister has always been reluctant to give up my sister, and the relationship between our two sisters has been very good since childhood, and the king also intends to let me enter the harem. It's just that... ”

Tianwei paused, secretly glanced at the Queen of Great Chu sitting on it with her eyes, and saw that He Xuan was still trying to maintain her own identity, so she boldly continued: "Although Da Zhou is gone, I am a descendant after all, and Zhou Pinggong is also my grandfather. If I enter the palace, this identity... ”

"No need to say more," He Xuan coldly interrupted Tianwei's words, and Mi Xian didn't know when he actually fell in love with his fifth emperor sister. What's more, Hexuan's identity is embarrassing now, although Mi Xian has been undiminished in favor of him for many years, but now it is an eventful time after all, and Hexuan is becoming more and more uneasy.

But when I think about it, Tianwei has been closest to herself since she was a child, and when Mi Xian was in the Great Zhou Palace, she also spent a long time with their two sisters, and Mi Xian and the fifth sister were also old childhood friends. It may not be a good thing to have your own sisters to support each other in this big palace, and I still feel sorry for myself if I want to do this.

Thinking of this, He Xuan's face slowly improved, and he looked at his little sister with a pleasant face and said: "My sister and I are our own sisters, and the king has been sent to the Great Zhou Palace since he was ten years old to grow up with us, and he has a great friendship. You are born so much that your sister is the queen of Dachu, so she naturally wants to give you the most noble status. The seat of Wang Guifei is still vacant, why don't you ask your sister to be a concubine? ”

"Oh? This is the most exalted position ... Princess Tianwei grinned and got up and walked to He Xuan, who was sitting on the phoenix chair, slowly took her hand, and whispered in her ear: "Even if my sister is as beautiful as a fairy, she can only be the concubine of the king, because the most honorable position in the harem of Dachu has been occupied by my dear sister." However, if the elder sister feels sorry for the younger sister, the position of the queen can also be given to the younger sister. “

He Xuan glanced at Princess Tianwei with displeasure, thinking that she was her sister after all, and her sister had always been used to being open-mouthed, how could she deal with her? Then he said: "Wei'er, this is the harem of Da Chu, and it's just in front of me." In the future, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't be caught by villains. ”

Tianwei made a grimace at Chong Hexuan as if nothing happened, walked back to her seat and sat down and said, "Sister is naturally the most distressed little sister." Wait until tomorrow's sister's birthday banquet, and then talk to the king, okay? ”

Tianwei nodded with satisfaction when she saw Hexuan, then put her mind at ease and continued seriously: "I don't know how my sister is preparing for tomorrow's banquet?" Is there anything else you need help from? Sister, I know that you must be very sad when your father dies, after all, he loves you the most. But you have to remember that this is Da Chu, it was the king who recovered Da Zhou, and you must not show any dissatisfaction in front of outsiders. ”

It's still his own sister, and Xuan couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and said: "It's good that there is such a big thing, but fortunately, I have my sister by my side." It's not the first time that my birthday has passed, and the palace has been preparing early. It's just that this time the Great Zhou Dynasty destroyed the country, and tomorrow I have to face the civil and military officials and their wives and daughters with a smile, I hate to have to go, hide in my own dormitory! ”

Princess Tianwei was suddenly stunned, and immediately smiled: "Sister's birthday banquet, how can my sister not attend?" Don't worry, my sister will be vigilant for my sister tomorrow. ”

Tianwei looked at Cuilan, a palace maid beside Hexuan, and said sharply: "Cuilan, you have served your sister since you were a child, and now it is an eventful time, you have to comfort and take care of your sister!" You see, my sister's tea is cold, and I don't even know how to add it! ”

Cuilan fell to her knees, and hurriedly buckled her head and said: "Niangniang, it's all slaves and maids, slaves and maids didn't serve Niangniang well, it's all the slaves' fault, please forgive Niangniang." ”

He Xuan said lightly: "Get up." You have followed me since I was a child, although you have no merit, you also have hard work. From now on, you should remember to keep an eye on me. Tomorrow I will receive a lot of congratulatory gifts, and you are in charge of the maidservants who remain in this palace, and remember to let them tidy up my treasury. As for this tea... ”

Cuilan breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said, "The slave will go and add tea to the mother." Immediately stepped forward to take away the teabowl and teapot, turned around and walked in the direction of the backyard, and glanced at the fifth princess inexplicably before leaving. Tianwei didn't see it, and continued to check with Hexuan about the process of tomorrow's banquet.

This conversation lasted for a long time, and before I knew it, it was dinner time.

He Xuan left Tianwei to eat in his palace, and specially instructed the imperial dining room to make Tianwei's favorite white fungus lotus seed soup.

Princess Tianwei has lived in the Great Zhou Palace since she was a child, although her father advocated frugality, she is used to the days of fine clothes and fine food. In addition, Tianwei was born noble, and the queen mother's family was powerful and powerful, and her life since childhood was much more luxurious than that of other royal brothers and sisters!

I thought that this was the wealth of Tuotian, but when I arrived at the Chu Palace, I saw that the magnificent palace was full of gold and jade, and there were countless famous paintings and antiques, so I knew that there was a sky outside the sky.

Take the queen's dinner as an example, there are four kinds of staple food, four kinds of soup, ten kinds of meat and vegetarian dishes, and two kinds of warm pots. There are also all kinds of steamed dumplings and siu mai and xiao long bao, and there are dozens of desserts after the meal.

Princess Tianwei has lived in Da Chu for a while, but every time she eats, she can't help but sigh at Da Chu's extravagance, and is glad that this kind of life under the fence is finally coming to an end.

Sent off Princess Tianwei, and Xuan bathed and changed clothes under the service of the maidservants, and prepared to sleep. However, tossing and turning, all that comes to mind is his father who loves him.

I don't know how I will face the scrutinizing eyes of everyone at tomorrow's banquet, and how I will face my husband Jun Mixian, who has pampered me for many years.
