Chapter 38 Peony Ginseng

Bent eyebrows, clear eyes like water, exquisite facial features, dancing in a fiery red phoenix suit, red Zhuo is eye-catching.

The phoenix cloud sideburns raised high are like a fire phoenix flying, bits and pieces of golden pearls are sprinkled on the cloud temples, two strands of hair are snaking against the cheeks and extending to the neck, and the fair skin is not as coquettish as all the concubines who are doing it.

Mei Wu took Ruo'er and a few palace people to the Empress Dowager and sat down, lowered her head, bent down and said: "The concubine has seen the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, I wish the Empress Dowager a blessing like the East China Sea Shoubi Nanshan." ”

A group of palace people behind him knelt down.

The Empress Dowager glanced at the dance, then looked at Si Tou Feng and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you see the Empress Dowager?" Could it be that I, the Queen Mother, dare to be absent on her birthday? The Empress Dowager's voice was slightly angry.

Si Teng Feng stretched out his hand and patted the back of the Empress Dowager's hand: "Don't worry, Grandmother Huang, I want to come to the Empress Dowager to prepare gifts, and I will be there in a while." ”

With a smile on his face, Si Tou Feng's joy was obvious, but the face of the maiden and the palace people who were still leaning over was a little embarrassed, after all, the civil and military ministers were all there, and the Empress Dowager's move was too eye-catching, but they didn't know that the maiden was already a topic in everyone's hearts at the moment.

"The queen is exempt." Sito Kaede opened his mouth at the right time. Looking at the dance, his eyes seemed to be burning and contradictory.

"Your Majesty."

When everyone got up, the Empress Dowager smiled: "Alas! Look at the memory of the mourning family, it's really old, it's useless, don't go to your heart, come "Come" stretched out his hand to the mourning family: "Come to the mourning family to sit." ”

"Yes, Empress Dowager Xie." Mei Wu walked to the side of the Queen Mother, bowed and smiled, and Ruo'er, who followed behind, stepped forward with a side plate.

Mei Wu said: "The Empress Dowager, this is a gift prepared by the concubines for the Empress Dowager, I hope the Empress Dowager likes it." ”

The red silk on the end plate is lifted by Ruoer, the faint fragrance overflows all around, fresh and pleasant, the light red peony flower buds are bright, the white is translucent red, and the thick roots are rare green and white, which is a rare thing to see in a hundred years.

The Empress Dowager pointed to the peony ginseng on the end plate: "This is?" ”

"This is a hundred-year-old peony ginseng, which is very beneficial to the Queen Mother's body." Mai Wu replied calmly.

100-year-old peony ginseng? Si Teng Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, this is a good thing from last year, it is hard to find in the world, I think I have been working hard to find it back then, it turned out to be in Xiahou's house.

"I wonder how the queen got this thing? I'm really curious? ”

Mei Wu said: "This ginseng is my father's precious treasure for many years, and it is given to the concubines, and the concubines are useless. ”

"Your Majesty!" The Empress Dowager spoke, her tone could not hide her joy. Pointing to the peony ginseng: "You see, the flowers on this peony ginseng are only the ones that the mourners like, they are pink and tender." ”

Si Teng Feng glanced at the peony ginseng, it was indeed a good thing, but it was useless at this time.

"It's beautiful."

"Well," the Empress Dowager agreed, turning her head to look at Mei Wu: "Queen, you like this gift very much, come, sit down, and the mourning family will reward you later." ”

Mei Wu bowed his head and said: "Xie Empress Dowager is very loving, the concubines don't ask for rewards, just wish the Empress Dowager to be happy." ”

"Yes, yes." The Empress Dowager stretched out her hand to hold the hand of the mourning family: "Come, be by the side of the mourning family, and accompany the mourning family to chatter." ”

said to Mama Gui behind her: "Mama Gui, take this peony ginseng down, put it away, don't make a mistake." ”

"Yes, the old slave will go."

With the retreat of Mama Gui, the banquet officially began.

At the banquet, Xiahou Jie sat upright and at the very beginning, and sitting opposite was the old prime minister Ning Yun.

After seeing Xiahou Meiwu send the peony ginseng to the palace, Xiahou Jie's hands have been clenched tightly, and Yuxia on the side saw that Xiahou Jie's face was a little pale, and hurriedly raised her hand to hold Xia Houjie's arm: "Xianggong, are you okay?" ”

Xiahou Jie pursed his lips tightly, his rich sword eyebrows frowned, half loud, and spit out: "It's okay." ”

I thought that his face was obviously unhappy, where did he look like he was fine, but he said it was okay, Yuxia didn't dare to ask more, put down his hand, did it properly, and watched the performance.

Xiahou Meiwu, you are really kind! Xia Houjie was extremely angry in his heart, thinking about that peony ginseng, he had gone through a lot of hardships to get it, and he was so easily sent to an irrelevant person, and the anger in his heart was rising.

Just because she said, "Brother, the peony is very beautiful!" ”

He ran all the mountains and searched for a long time, and only then did he get the peony ginseng, just to keep her safe, and he thought that in the name of his father, he thought that she would treasure it, but he thought that he would do so.

Xiahou Dance, when will you understand? Reaching out to cover the wine glass on the desk, he tilted his head and gulped down.

One cup after another, as if it were water, without a moment's pause.

The left hand of the white bone joint, clenched tightly, and with excessive force, the wine glass finally "snapped" and shattered.

Everyone in the immersion turned their eyes to Xiahou Jie's side, and the sound was heard clearly by Si Teng Feng in the high position.
