Chapter 52: Face Saint

Beiliuyun kowtowed three times on the ground, Wang Zhi sighed with emotion, and hurriedly helped him up: "That's it.. That's it.. Good boy.. In the future, my father-in-law will help you become the unification, and let those who look down on you regret not being at the beginning! ”

Chu Luoyi looked indifferently at the touching scene of the father's kindness and filial piety, but she was irrepressibly excited in her heart, a year, it has been a year since she came out of prison, and she is finally one step closer to Ouyang Qiancheng.

She didn't know how long she could endure it, but she knew that every day and every year was so long, and hatred supported her thin shell, as if only blood could soothe her restlessness.

After leaving Wang Zhi, Beiliuyun began to send people to investigate the movements of the four princes and princes.

And Xiao Yuluo on the side fell on Chu Luoyi, looked at her and said coldly: "Chu Luoyi, let me tell you, don't think that Gongzi has been interested in you, you dare to fly on the branches, from beginning to end, Gongzi spoils you just to protect me, and when Gongzi no longer needs you one day, I won't let you go!" ”

Chu Luoyi just lowered her eyes quietly and didn't speak, but Xiao Yuluo was eager to break her body into pieces, whenever she remembered that until now, Gongzi still lived with her every night, she couldn't wait to kill her as soon as possible!

Beiliuyun looked up at the place where the two of them were standing, and his heart ached, Luo Luo, why do I think that you are getting farther and farther away from me. At night, back in the room, Chu Luoyi said in a deep voice: "The crown prince and the fourth prince and the sixth prince are all carefully investigating your whereabouts, so be sure to send additional people to deploy carefully." ”

Beiliuyun didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.

Chu Luoyi saw that he didn't speak, so he didn't speak again, she sorted out the news in the past few days, these princes who were quite powerful in the court were quite concerned about the return of Beiliuyun, because behind Beiliuyun was Wang Zhi, the first eunuch of the Northern Yan Dynasty.

With Wang Zhi's support, it is enough to make Beiliuyun, a prince who has nothing, become an object that everyone needs to curry favor with in an instant.

After tidying up the quilt, Chu Luoyi was about to turn around, but Beiliuyun tightly surrounded her from behind.

"Lolo.."

Chu Luoyi didn't move, she stood there quietly, letting the man behind her get close, but no matter how docile she was, she could always easily make people feel the indifference that seeped into the bone marrow.

Beiliuyun's heart was desolate, but he never let go.

A few days later, the birthday of Emperor Beiyan was officially ushered in.

Beiliuyun followed Wang Zhi's sedan chair and slowly entered the palace, while Chu Luoyi went back to the palace maid and followed him.

The important ministers of the court seem to have heard the news of the return of the Nine Emperor Princes, and they are speculating about the direction of the forces in the court and the central government one by one.

Before that, no one knew who he was, and after that, there will be no one who would not know who he was!

The splendid Qiankun Hall is brightly lit, the glazed tile roof reflects the colorful glow, the white marble on the wall is carved with a rich and auspicious peony, the gold wire is embellished, quenched and gilded, and all kinds of gemstones outline a blooming spring on the pure white jade.

The dragon plays with the phoenix on the eaves of the beams, a string of crystal bead curtains dazzles, the first dragon chair made of red gold, and the seats of the concubines on both sides are in turn.

Under the high platform, there is a low table with pear wood moire, divided into two rows, the first is the princes in turn, and then the ministers, sitting in turn.

There is a red carpet all over the ground, on which there are pretty hibiscus blooming, and the petals on the red carpet are scattered, like a goddess scattering flowers, which is indescribably beautiful.

A gust of autumn wind blew, and the two white cranes and eight treasures pine branch incense burners under the seat emitted a thick ambergris, which made people can't help but be confused under this light.

The sound of singing and dancing is endless, and a luxurious palace banquet begins.

The princes and ministers sat in turn, and Wang Zhi came with the emperor and many concubines, and before he arrived at the Qiankun Palace, he heard a sharp voice coming: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

The ministers got up one after another, kowtowed and bowed, and after the emperor sat on the top, Wang Zhi always stood by the emperor's side.

Chu Luoyi followed Beiliuyun to the side hall to wait, holding the congratulatory gift in his hand.

As soon as he walked into the side hall, he collided head-on with a eunuch, and the congratulatory gift in his hand fell to the ground at once.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry.." The superintendent hurriedly picked up the congratulatory gift that had fallen from the tray.

The congratulatory gift prepared this time is an evergreen tree, carefully carved with ancient wood, many fine branches are thinner than gold and silver threads, and on these branches, hanging a piece of wood carved hollow fruit, which seems to be embedded with a few gems, from a distance, simple but luxurious, is a rare treasure that can be cleverly fused with the thick and simple wood and the bright brilliance of the gem.

A gleam flashed in the eyes of the Tai Tai Supervisor, it seems that the news that the master got is really right, Wang Zhi actually invited the ghost hand carver to make such a treasure.

The superintendent hurriedly picked up the wood carving, wiped the dust off it with his hands, and said tremblingly: "Your Highness spares your life, Your Highness spares your life... The small one really wasn't intentional.."

Beiliuyun's eyes were unpredictable, and he looked at the eunuch and said quietly: "Get out!" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly put the evergreen tree on the tray and ran away.

Beiliuyun and Chu Luoyi glanced at each other, it seemed that they had returned this time, and sure enough, someone couldn't hold back.

Chu Luoyi picked up the tray again, covered it with a red cloth, and waited in the hall.

At this moment, the princes in the Qiankun Palace have begun to send carefully prepared congratulatory gifts, and Emperor Beiyan seems to be in a very good mood.

Wang Zhi said at the right time: "Your Majesty, there is also a prince who has carefully prepared a congratulatory gift for Your Majesty, just because he is not on the list of banquets this time, because he..."

"Huh? Shouldn't all princes be listed? Why would anyone be out of the list?" Emperor Beiyan frowned.

"The Nine Emperors have never attended the palace banquet since they were young, until a few days ago, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperors learned that His Majesty's birthday was approaching, so he asked the old slave to present the congratulatory gift to His Majesty, but the old slave thought to himself, this is a piece of the prince's heart, and the prince should personally send the congratulatory gift to His Majesty."

Emperor Beiyan nodded: "You did a good job, it's rare that he is so filial, and he hasn't passed it on!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Ninth has arrived!" The eunuch's shrill voice seemed to indicate that the political situation of the Northern Yan Dynasty was about to undergo new fluctuations.

A bewitching man walked in from outside the hall with the sun on his back, wearing a purple robe embroidered with gold, with an outturned neckline, inlaid with several gemstones, and a white jade and gold belt around his waist.

It wasn't until the man gradually approached that everyone could see his appearance clearly, and the crowd couldn't help but let out a burst of gasp, a pair of glass-colored eyes in the narrow phoenix eyes, indifferent and almost transparent, and the bewitching red lips seemed to be able to drip blood, which was in stark contrast to the pale skin.

Feeling the sight of everyone, Bei Liuyun hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and glanced at the crowd, many people were shocked, only thinking that the man in front of him and the rumored Nine Highnesses who were humiliated in the Guanghan Courtyard could not be the same person at all.

The officials looked at Beiliuyun, and then judged how far he could go, but these officials who had been in the officialdom for many years understood that this was about to change, and from then on there would be one more powerful opponent for the throne, no matter whether they won or lost, the Nine Emperors Beiliuyun would be heavily written in the history of the Northern Yan Dynasty from this day on.

Beiliuhai's gaze was a little deep, sweeping over Beiliuyun, but his gaze fell on the woman behind him, retracting his gaze and not knowing what he was thinking.

Chu Luoyi looked at the back in front of her, and had to admit that in this world, she had never seen anyone in her family who looked better than him in a purple robe, like a demon, but with an innate nobility, a smile was more seductive than a woman, and when she noticed the gaze cast from all around, Chu Luoyi restrained her mind and thought silently.

"Long live my father, long live, long live, may my father live forever, and live with the sky." Beiliuyun kowtowed.

Emperor Beiyan looked at Bei Liuyun's expression for a moment, and then said with emotion: "I can't imagine that Jiu'er is born with such a good appearance, why has my father never seen you all these years, Wang Zhi, what's going on?" Why haven't I seen Jiu'er at the palace banquets over the years! ”

Wang bowed straight and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Ninth is already weak, and because he has been living in the remote Guanghan Courtyard, he has always not improved, and he is often sick, so he has missed many banquets. ”

The emperor looked a little unhappy, and asked rhetorically: "Could it be that those imperial doctors are all useless ornaments!" ”

A few people in the imperial hospital were related for a while, which is not to blame them, you know, even now, in this harem, there are still many princes who even have problems with their livelihoods, but I have to admit that these nine highnesses used to be the worst one.

At least some of the princes on the side will go to some concubines who are not very high-status, and they can be regarded as having a backer, but only these nine princes have been staying in Guanghan Courtyard like dead people, and I don't know how they have survived all these years.

"Don't be angry, the imperial doctors have done their best to diagnose and treat Beiliuyun, but the body of the retainer is not angry, but he wasted some good medicinal materials in vain, today is the birthday of the father, and the retainer also wants to do a little bit of his best." Beiliuyun said slowly.

When the words fell, Beiliuyun took the tray from Chu Luoyi's hand, everyone's eyes fell on his hand, and the man's slender fingers tore open the red cloth.

A lifelike evergreen wood carving appeared in front of everyone, and Emperor Beiyan seemed to be attracted by it and stood up from his seat.

Just when everyone was about to applaud, the wood carving suddenly made a stabbing sound, and the originally round and smooth wood began to shrink into dead wood, and many people immediately gloated, wanting to see how capable this Nine Emperor Prince was!

Emperor Beiyan's brows also frowned, this wood carving is an evergreen tree, implying that he is evergreen all year round and immortal, but this has shrunk up.
