Chapter 309: Lost Freedom

After learning that it was not someone from the Li Mansion who came to pick him up, the atmosphere of the two of them instantly lowered.

"And how long are we going to stay here?" The two of them were looking forward to getting out of here at all times.

"As long as the crown prince is deposed, you will stay here." Chu Ruoyao said.

"What? The crown prince was actually deposed? ”

The two of them stayed here all the time, unaware of what was going on in the outside world. I didn't know that the crown prince Chu Ruoyan was deposed, and I didn't know that the envoys of Izumo Country came to Mingyue Kingdom. It was so surprising to see the two of them. Li Luobing briefly recounted to them what had happened outside in the near future, and they looked at each other after listening.

"Stay in here, and you'll go out when it's time to go out, don't think you won't be punished for doing that kind of thing. You have lost your freedom, but those who have been burned by you have lost their lives. Li Luobing said to the two. After hearing these words, the two of them remembered the scene of the fire that day.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing also left. Their original intention was just to come here to see the condition of these two people, and they didn't want to release them.

"That Li Jinlan is a son-in-law, I didn't expect that Li Fu really didn't come to save him." Chu Ruoyao shook her head and sighed.

There was Li Luobing's matter before, and now there are two sons who have such a thing, and the Li Mansion is indifferent no matter which time, which is enough to prove the face of the Li Mansion people. When it comes to using people, it is a matter of course, and when it is their turn to contribute, they hide extremely far away.

"The Li Mansion has always been like this, and I'm used to it."

The two walked out of the cell and returned to the house, and Li Luobing was called up by Qiao Su not long after lying down.

"Princess, get up quickly, it's time for you to enter the palace again." Qiao Su called softly beside Li Luobing.

Li Luobing, who was asleep, opened her eyes reluctantly after hearing Qiao Su's voice, she got up and sat at the table, and let Qiao Su fiddle with her hair behind her.

"Qiaosu, can you put a little less of these things?"

Li Luobing had a headache when she looked at the table full of jewelry, and now Qiao Su must have inserted hairpins on her head again, thinking that she would have to stay up for several hours with such a heavy head to attend the banquet, she retreated, and finally even lay on the table and sighed.

It didn't matter if she was lying on the table, but this action made Qiaosu next to her nervous. Li Luobing now has jewelry on his head, if the range of action is a little too large, it may all fall off, and he will have to work in vain at that time.

"Princess, you better get up quickly!" Qiao Su stood beside Li Luobing, carefully protecting her hair. Just when the two were at a stalemate, Chu Ruoyan came to the house. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Li Luobing lying on the table sighing, and Qiao Su next to him had a nervous look on his face.

"In less than half an hour, we're leaving." Chu Ruoyao pulled a chair for herself and sat down.

Hearing that there was less than half an hour left, Li Luobing finally sat up straight. Qiao Su also breathed a sigh of relief, and smoothed out the wrinkles on Li Luobing's clothes just now.

After cleaning everything up, the two of them went out again, and heard Chu Ruoyan say that this evening banquet was different from the noon banquet, in addition to the princes and nobles who participated during the day, the concubines or princesses of this banquet would also appear at night, and there were still a few people who appeared at noon. But at night it's different.

"Princess, princesses will also appear?" After listening to what Chu Ruoyao said, the first person Li Luobing thought of was Chu Jiaying, the princess of Jincheng. With a character like hers who wants to be the center of attention all the time, she must be looking forward to the evening banquet, which is a rare opportunity for her to show herself.

Li Luobing's guess was not wrong, Chu Jiaying was busy preparing in the harem at this time. She was already angry that she didn't attend the banquet at noon, and she would never miss this banquet again in the evening.

In Concubine Xue's palace, Chu Jiaying kept changing the jewelry on her body, asking Xue Guifei every time she changed it, and finally asked Xue Guifei a little impatient.

"Is this good-looking or that good-looking?" Chu Jiaying held two hairpins in her hands and put them in front of Xue Guifei, so she had to let Xue Guifei pick out the one she thought was good-looking. Xue Guifei casually pointed to one of the hairpins, she was already exhausted from torture just now, and now she didn't even want to look at those jewelry.

Seeing that Xue Guifei pointed out a hairpin, Chu Jiaying picked it up and ordered someone to put it on her head. Chu Jiaying tossed for nearly an hour before she packed up her things.

"Mother, you also went to the banquet at noon today. Can you tell us what it was like this time? How many people are there in Izumo Province? How many princes? ”

Xue Guifei looked at the glowing look in her eyes, and she could guess what was going on in her heart. It's just that I want to take this opportunity to get to know more men of the same age.

"There aren't a lot of people going to the Izumo country at the noon banquet, some people are at the inn at noon, and only the evening banquet is the main event, but if you have a mind about the men of Izumo country, I advise you to take it back as soon as possible."

"What's wrong with the man? Outside, there are rumors that the men of Izumo Province are tall and mighty, and it is only natural that I should be curious about them. Chu Jiaying didn't listen to Xue Guifei's words. All she was thinking about now was how to talk to the princes of Izumo Kingdom during the evening banquet.

Xue Guifei looked at Chu Jiaying, who was so insolvent, and could only give up preaching to her, now she thought like this, when she really met a man from Izumo Kingdom, when she was in danger, she knew that what she said was true. The relationship between Mingyue Kingdom and Izumo Kingdom is not good, how could Chu Jiaying, as a princess, marry a man from Izumo Kingdom?

It's a pity that Chu Jiaying didn't realize the concubine's good intentions at all, and after her hair was taken care of, she picked up the clothes again, for a while the overall color of the clothes was not good, and for a while the clothes looked too bad for the material, so she couldn't ship to the banquet at all.

"Concubine, princess. The banquet is about to begin, so please two of you! The little eunuch ran outside the hall to report the news.

Hearing that a little eunuch was coming, Chu Jiaying was in a hurry, and the indifference just now no longer existed. Fortunately, after the little eunuch finished speaking, he waited outside, and after Chu Jiaying went in to change into a new set of clothes, she followed the little eunuch away.

At night, whether it is inside or outside the main hall, it is full of lights, and when Chu Jiaying and the others arrived, there were not many people in the hall, except for a few ministers who came early, there were some palace maids and eunuchs who were busy, and it seemed that the people from Izumo Country had not yet come.

Just when Chu Jiaying was annoyed that she had just walked too fast and came early, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and Chu Jiaying turned her head to see that it was someone from Izumo Country. She was overjoyed and wanted to walk over, but was stopped by Xue Guifei next to her.

"What are you going to do?" Xue Guifei glared at Chu Jiaying and said.

"The messenger is coming, I want to go and salute." Chu Jiaying explained in a low voice.

"Salute? That's the people of Izumo Country, they came to visit our Bright Moon Country, what are you going to? Besides, the first thing they saw was not you, but the emperor, and they didn't sit down honestly for me! Xue Guifei scolded Chu Jiaying and stopped her footsteps.

Chu Jiaying felt aggrieved in her heart, but she didn't dare to openly disobey Xue Guifei's order on such an occasion, so she could only sit in her seat honestly.

At the same time as the envoy of Izumo Country came, Chu Zhuangyan also came to the hall from the inner room. After Tuoba Lie saw Chu Zhuangyan, he still stepped forward to salute, but his attitude was much better than at noon.

"I've seen the emperor." Tuoba Lie was quite respectful to Chu Zhuangyan this time, and at noon, Chu Ruoyang, the king of Qin, went to look for him, and after learning that he was going to stay in the Mingyue Kingdom for a while, Chu Ruoyang also gave him some warnings. Although Tuoba Lie was sarcastic about Chu Zhuangyan, he thought that he was going to stay here, and he unconsciously restrained a lot.

"It seems that Lord Lie has had a good rest this afternoon." Chu Zhuangyan said something in his words, and nodded to Chu Ruoyang next to him.

Chu Ruoyang was also relieved to see Tuoba Lie's performance, fortunately, he didn't make any trouble this time for the time being, and he didn't waste an afternoon with him. While several people were talking, others also arrived one after another, and after everyone arrived, Chu Ruoyang stood up to preside over the banquet and announced the start of the banquet.

When the ministers saw Tuoba Lie appear here again, they all remembered what happened at noon, and they looked at Tuoba Lie very unkindly. Tuoba Lie was not afraid of these gazes, he didn't look for trouble for the time being, it didn't mean that he would put up with the eyes of these people, and when the tour was over, he stood up with his glass in his hand.

"The people who represent Izumo Province will give the emperor a cup, and I hope that the emperor will live a long life." After Tuoba Lie finished speaking, he tilted his head and drank the wine in the cup. But Chu Zhuangyan couldn't be happy when he listened to his words of blessing.

Tuoba Lie said that he wished himself a long life and a hundred years old, but in Chu Zhuangyan's ears, how could he sound like he was looking forward to his early death.

But he had no way to say this kind of thought, once he said it, he might be caught by Tuoba Lie and say that he would spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, Chu Zhuangyan sighed in his heart, and could only drink the wine with a smile on his face.

The ministers below saw that their emperor had made such a move, and even if there was more dissatisfaction in their hearts, they could only suppress it, and they raised their glasses to Tuoba Lie, and the atmosphere on the field was a warm scene.
