Chapter 310: Chu Jiaying's thoughts
Chu Jiaying looked at Tuoba Lie and the other princes from the side, and her eyes kept shining. Compared to the people of the Bright Moon Country, she prefers the people of the Izumo Kingdom, who are not only tall and strong, but also look much more reliable than the people of the Bright Moon Country.
She took a bite of something, turned her head and whispered to Xue Guifei next to her: "Mother, you see those people, no matter which one of them looks better than the people of Mingyue Kingdom, why are you still stopping me?"
After Xue Guifei heard Chu Jiaying's words and deeds, she knew that her heart was still not quiet, since the people from Izumo Country had not yet come, she had imagined today's events, and now when she saw the people from Izumo Kingdom, she became even more intense.
"I'm not stopping you, I'm trying to make you pay attention to your image, after all, you are the princess of Mingyue Kingdom, every word and deed represents our Mingyue Kingdom, if you make any inappropriate moves, what should others think?"
"You're just being too cautious, and that's why you're in this situation." Chu Jiaying said angrily.
I don't know when it started, Xue Guifei has become much more cautious than before, Chu Jiaying has gone to Xue Guifei several times because of Li Luobing's matter, Xue Guifei persuaded her not to act rashly, and in desperation, Chu Jiaying could only start it herself, but I didn't take advantage of it.
He just couldn't understand why Xue Guifei no longer supported himself, in the past, Xue Guifei would support him behind his back, but now not only does he not support him, but sometimes he even persuades himself.
Xue Guifei listened to Chu Jiaying's rude words, and really wanted to reprimand her loudly, but because she was at the banquet, she could only remind Chu Jiaying to pay attention in a whisper, but Chu Jiaying couldn't listen to her words at all, and her mind was on the prince of the Izumo Kingdom opposite.
Tuoba Lie was enjoying the dance of the palace maid when he felt the eyes from the other side, he looked up, a woman in palace clothes was looking this way, and after making eye contact with her, he lowered his head shyly, but there was also a bit of boldness in this shyness.
"Who's that guy?" Tuoba Lie asked the palace maid of the Bright Moon Kingdom who was standing next to him.
"If you return to the words of Prince Lie, that is the princess of our Mingyue Kingdom, Chu Jiaying, the princess of Jincheng." The palace maid replied respectfully.
Princess Jincheng? Tuoba Lie thought about it, he seemed to have heard something about this princess, but all he heard was bad news. It is rumored that this princess has never been married to anyone because of her unlikable personality, and no one is willing to accept her even if she marries.
Looking at her expression, it turned out that she was a person who had taken a fancy to Izumo Province. Tuoba Lie sneered in his heart, the princess that no one in the Bright Moon Country dared to marry, and they would not want it in the Izumo Kingdom. However, she can use her mind to cause some trouble to Chu Zhuangyan, so that she can also increase some of her fun in Mingyue Kingdom.
Looking at her appearance, you can feel that she is still very favored in Mingyue Country, otherwise, with such a bad reputation outside, Chu Zhuangyan would still be able to let her come to this kind of banquet.
After thinking about these things, Tuoba Lie found that Chu Jiaying was still looking in this direction, so he said a few words to another prince beside him, and the prince nodded, raised his eyes to look over, and just met Chu Jiaying's eyes.
Chu Jiaying didn't expect her eyes to respond, as soon as she saw someone looking at her, Chu Jiaying immediately pretended to show a shy smile, carefully raised the wine glass to the opposite side, nodded and drank the wine, and the prince on the other side also showed a smile when he saw this, and drank the wine according to Tuoba Lie's secret instructions.
When Chu Jiaying saw this scene, she immediately pulled the sleeve of Xue Guifei next to her: "Mother, have you seen it?" The prince on the other side is smiling at me! We just had a face-to-face drink! Chu Jiaying's tone couldn't hide her excitement, she has even begun to think about her future life now, after this banquet, maybe she can marry that prince and finally become a princess......
Chu Jiaying has been immersed in her imagination, Xue Guifei glanced at Chu Jiaying, who had been carried away, and still gave up persuasion. Even if she was persuaded now, she would feel that she was against her, and she would not be grateful to herself at all.
"Did you see that?" Li Luobing whispered to Chu Ruoying, asking him to look in Chu Jiaying's direction. When she just raised her wine glass, she found that Chu Jiaying was eyebrow-raising with the prince of the Izumo Kingdom opposite, and it seemed that the two of them were very ambiguous. She couldn't help but start to guess what Chu Jiaying wanted to do.
"I see it." Chu Ruoyao nodded and said.
In fact, when he first entered the main hall, he saw Chu Jiaying, Chu Jiaying's eyes kept looking at the group of princes in Izumo Kingdom, as if he was looking for some prey, it seemed that Chu Jiaying's mind was restless again. In the past, when there were such banquets, she always focused on those princes and nobles, and now she began to repeat her old tricks. But Chu Ruoyao knew that Tuoba Lie was not a fool, and it was impossible for him to let someone like Chu Jiaying enter the Izumo Kingdom.
Since the prince of Izumo Kingdom can interact with Chu Jiaying, it must be with the permission of Tuoba Lie. Exactly what Tuobalie's purpose was is still unknown. Chu Ruoyan withdrew her eyes.
After the banquet in the main hall was over, Chu Ruoyang stood in the center of the main hall.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in order to make you have fun, we have specially arranged a show, but you need to move outside the hall to watch it, I hope it will satisfy everyone." Chu Ruoyang's face was full of confidence, this show was arranged by him in advance, in order to make Tuoba Lie and several princes of Izumo Kingdom feel the strength of Mingyue Kingdom, he had made careful arrangements for a while, and I believe that he would definitely be able to deter the people of Izumo Kingdom.
Hearing Chu Ruoyang say this, several princes of Izumo Country had a look of disbelief on their faces, in their opinion, Mingyue Country was far less powerful than their Izumo Kingdom, even after more preparations, it was just like that. But driven by curiosity, everyone followed Chu Ruoyang to the outside of the main hall.
The palace is bustling with activity here, but on the other side of the palace, in a palace away from the main hall, it's a different story.
"Get out! Take it for me, this prince won't eat it! Chu Ruoyan knocked over the food brought by He Yuanzhong to the ground, and shouted loudly in frenzy.
"Your Highness, you should still eat!" He Yuanzhong sighed, picked up the food on the ground that had not been knocked over, and put it on the table again.
Chu Ruoyan stared at He Yuanzhong's movements and asked, "Eat?" What do you let Prince Ben eat! That's it? He pointed to the greens in the bowl and roared. In fact, Chu Ruoyan's treatment is much better than that of people who have been under house arrest in the past, some can't even eat a mouthful of green vegetables, and their daily food is only steamed buns, but Chu Ruoyan not only has green vegetables, but even meat.
But he is usually pampered, and he is full of disgust for things that ordinary people may not be able to eat.
"Your Highness," He Yuanzhong sighed, "This is already very good, and the emperor has ordered it......"
"Don't mention the emperor to me!" As soon as Chu Zhuangyan's name was mentioned, Chu Ruoyan immediately stood up, his eyes full of anger.
He originally thought that it would be expedient for Chu Zhuangyan to abolish himself, and it would not take long for him to restore the crown prince, but he had waited until now, and there was no movement, Chu Zhuangyan seemed to have completely forgotten himself, and he didn't even come here to look at him.
He Yuanzhong didn't know what to do when he looked at Chu Ruoyan like this, because he was the prince's henchman and father-in-law, he was also placed under house arrest together, and at the same time asked him to take care of Chu Ruoyan's daily life, but since Chu Ruoyan was abolished, their lives have been difficult, usually Chu Ruoyan has offended many people because of his bad temper, and the palace people don't like him, but they are afraid of Chu Ruoyan.
But now Chu Ruoyan is not the crown prince, every time the palace people come to deliver food, they have to be angry with themselves, punch and kick him, and they don't take them seriously at all, the changes in the past few days have made He Yuanzhong slowly get used to it, he knows that they may always be under house arrest here, and never have a chance to see the light of day, but Chu Ruoyan doesn't think so.
"Your Highness, how can you eat only a little at a time?" He Yuanzhong said and pushed the rice over again, Chu Ruoyan not only knocked the rice to the ground this time, but also punched and kicked He Yuanzhong, and then entered the house angrily.
He Yuanzhong sat on the ground for a long time, picked up the food scattered on the ground and put it into his mouth.
Outside the main hall, the sky had already darkened, and the palace people had already set up lanterns for lighting, and everyone looked at the open space, not knowing what Chu Ruoyang wanted to do.
"Your Majesty, King Qin, what does this mean? Didn't we take the people of Izumo Province for fools, and we followed you outside just to see this? Some people in the crowd in Izumo Province were impatient and questioned Chu Ruoyang, but Tuoba Lie did not stop it, but acquiesced to all this.
"Why is Lord Lie so impatient, this is the beginning." Chu Ruoyang gave a few words to the people around him, and not long after the person went down, everyone heard the sound of weapons.
Tuoba Lie's expression changed after hearing this voice, why did the sound of weapons appear here, and it sounded like there were quite a few people.
"Lord Lie doesn't need to be so nervous," Chu Ruoyang said after seeing the vigilant expression on Tuoba Lie's face, "We have absolutely no malicious intentions, and you will know why immediately." ”
Hearing Chu Ruoyang's words, Tuoba Lie looked at him a few times, and then decided to believe him for the time being, but if he wanted to play any tricks here, he would not let him go easily.
People all looked at the clearing, first the sound of weapons, then the sound of neat footsteps, and a group of guards in armor walked out neatly, each holding a spear in his hand, reflecting the cold light under the light of the lantern next to him. Chu Ruoyang made a few gestures, and the guards made uniform movements with Chu Ruoyang's command, and shouted from time to time, and the momentum was very shocking.
