The bustle of the night, especially in the palace, was far more noisy than before, and in the blink of an eye, the whole palace had not been so lively for a long time.

The Empress Dowager ordered to hold this banquet in a big way, which shows that her old man's love for the little prince is undoubtedly a good omen in the eyes of those who care.

Later, after Si Teng Feng finished dealing with some busy folds, he came to Yixue Pavilion alone, the weather was getting colder, the wind was cold and the dew was heavy, and there was a lot of hazy fog in the evening.

Seeing the plum blossoms all over the yard, Si Teng Feng's eyes were clear, he raised his head and took a deep breath, his hands behind his back, and his upright posture was undoubtedly a unique scenery.

He stood proudly in the courtyard, his flowing hair falling down like silk, and his eyes did not have the sharpness and depth of being an emperor in the past.

Behind him, the red figure gradually approached, taking small steps, especially gentle, as if afraid of disturbing his peace.

Xue Jiao frowned faintly, and her flickering and complicated eyes stared at his back, as if she felt the depression that belonged to loneliness.

The clasped hands were suddenly clenched tightly, and the wide sleeves were well hidden.

The breeze blew, accompanied by a faint fragrance, lingering around her, and for a moment, suddenly, he turned around slowly, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Xue Jiao's dark face.

I saw her looking at herself in a trance, suddenly, laughing softly, and helplessly stepped forward and stood in front of her.

Looking at her who was still a little stunned, her eyes were smiling, she raised her hand, and her fingers gently slid over the tip of her nose.

Said softly: "Aifei...... Why is it that I am so fascinated? The tone was doting: "Haven't you seen enough in the past half a month?" ”

A flirtatious sentence overflowed from his mouth, which really made Xue Jiao suddenly come back to her senses.

He lowered his head shyly and said coquettishly: "The emperor is joking with his concubines again......"

When Si Teng Feng heard this, he looked relaxed, raised his head and smiled: "Hahaha...... Concubine Ai's words are not right! If you hadn't watched me, why would I think that Concubine Ai hadn't seen enough? ”

Xue Jiao raised her eyes to look at this man helplessly, couldn't help pouting her lips, and pretended to be angry: "The emperor will laugh at his concubines." As he spoke, he turned around angrily.

Si Teng Feng obviously didn't expect Xue Jiao to be angry, and shook his head helplessly and smiled: "Okay, okay, if I don't say it, don't worry about it, next time I will show Concubine Ai." ”

With gentle words, Si Teng Feng stepped forward, his thin lips pressed against her ear, ambiguous words, and warm tone, which was really embarrassing.

Xue Jiao's face turned red instantly, a faint flush, lingering on both sides of her cheeks, reaching out to cover her cheeks, turning around suddenly, and crashing into his arms at once, the warm body temperature was very warm, as if all the cold air dissipated at once.

With his forehead pressed against his chest, he listened to the sound of his heartbeat.

Xue Jiao's eyes were gloomy, and the shyness in her heart was also instantly gone, and her only thought now was that this man and her could not have a result.

Does she still love him? Why would she be upset when she was close to him? Why did she feel inexplicably weak when he walked towards him step by step? His loneliness seemed to be her sadness......

A touch of floating thoughts woke up Xue Jiao, impossible, how could she still love him...... Suddenly, her eyes were wide open, and no one would see them.

But he still couldn't suppress the jumping flame in his heart.

Si Teng Feng's soft arms held her in his arms with pity, this calmness at the moment has always been what he wants, but he will never get what he wants......

The complex entanglement between the two is very well hidden, half a ring, when Xue Jiao retreats from his embrace again, everything will return to its original state.

Xue Jiao raised her eyes and looked at Si Teng Feng: "Your Majesty, it's not early at night, let's go to the banquet." ”

Si Teng Feng looked up at the plum blossoms in the courtyard, this kind of beauty is not the most beautiful.

Sighing, "It seems that I underestimated the means of the imperial grandmother, she is forcing me to comply......"

Xue Jiao knew what he meant when he wanted to speak, and reached out to touch his chest, showing charity in her gentle words.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is undoubtedly for your good, she has dedicated her life to the royal family, no matter how much persistence she has, isn't it all for the sake of the royal family? You just take care of it more and accommodate a little, in fact, there is nothing wrong with this, they are all a family, why bother with those meaningless little things? ”

Si Teng Feng listened, and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Xue Jiao said, yes, the Empress Dowager is getting older, and she is much more stubborn than before, and she has seen a lot more clearly.

Since her old man loves this grandson very much, he should cooperate so as not to sweep away her Yaxing.

After some explanation, Si Tou Feng completely removed the line of defense in his heart, all along, there has always been a hurdle in his heart that he can't pass, if it weren't for her pressing tightly, Mei Wu would not have left him.

Nothing will end like this! If she hadn't persistently forced her into a dead silence, she wouldn't have resolutely chosen such an extreme way, and he would always remember that last glance, the most resolute smile...... It seemed like it would be imprinted in his heart forever......

Maybe Xue Jiao is right, everything the Empress Dowager does, in the final analysis, is also for the royal ...... Maybe putting it down is also the best option.

Reaching out to hold the slender jade hand lying on his chest, the warm touch couldn't help but touch the softest place in his heart.

He raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Maybe Concubine Ai is right, I may be too persistent......" The deep words were accompanied by a touch of sadness.

Sad? Maybe others can't hear the sadness revealed between the words, at least at this moment, Xue Jiao she felt it, looked at him puzzled, and laughed at a bleak smile, thinking that she was thinking too much, how could he be sad? ……

Tonight's sky is a lot, the noisy Taihe Hall is brightly lit, this is the place to feast ministers, for generations, but where there are banquets in the palace, they will choose to be in the Taihe Palace.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the dark yellow candlesticks are covered with festive red lanterns, reflecting the entire Taihe Hall is gorgeous and extraordinary.

After a while, the ministers all walked into the hall with their families, and all the officials were seated on both sides...... Concubine Yun Niangniang to ......"

The hundred officials immediately got up and bowed their heads, and congratulated in unison: "The ministers see the Empress Dowager, Concubine Yun...... The Empress Dowager is auspicious, and Concubine Yun is auspicious. ”

I saw the Empress Dowager, holding the little prince Sito Nianwu in her arms, and Concubine Yun, who was following gracefully, smiled and looked ahead.

On the top of the main hall, the Empress Dowager sat on one of the main seats, Concubine Yun sat on one side, and the other two seats that were still empty were left for Si Teng Feng and Xue Jiao.

However, the Empress Dowager Ning Qing had already stopped asking about the world a year ago, and sincerely stayed in the Buddhist hall to participate in meditation. Closed all year round.

The Empress Dowager looked down, looked down at everyone, and said loudly: "All the ministers are exempt from courtesy." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie."

"This is a festive day, you don't have to be restrained." The empress dowager's joyful voice was accompanied by a faint majesty.

Concubine Yun was also happy on one side, glanced at the Empress Dowager with a side face, and said softly: "Look, the Empress Dowager, Nian Wu is smiling happily ......" glanced at her gratefully: "The concubine has to thank the Empress Dowager for her protection, otherwise how can the concubine have ...... today"

"Okay......" The Empress Dowager raised her eyes and glanced at Concubine Yun, and somewhat clearly understood Concubine Yun's temperament: "This is a happy day, so don't say something discouraged." He looked at the night outside the door: "Looking at the sky, the emperor is coming soon." ”

Hearing this, Concubine Yun secretly lowered her mind, glanced out of the door, and pursed her lips.

After a while, Si Teng Feng slowly walked towards the Taihe Hall from outside the door, Xue Jiao on the side was dressed in gorgeous clothes, extremely beautiful, with thin eyebrows, crescent-like eyes as clear as water, and light makeup, which looked noble.

Si Tou Feng held her waist with one hand, walked into the main hall, and in an instant, cheers rang out: "Congratulations to the emperor." ”

Si Teng Feng raised his hand lightly, standing between the hundred officials, Xue Jiao stood side by side, and said in a deep voice, "No courtesy, everyone Aiqing can sit down." ”

Si Teng Feng walked up the steps with Xue Jiao in his arms, turned around and sat down, the Empress Dowager glanced at Si Teng Feng, and then glanced at Xue Jiao.

sneered, hooked his lips and said, "The emperor is in a good mood today." looked at Xue Jiao: "Presumably, only Concubine Xue can make the emperor feel good!" ”

The slightly sarcastic words were undoubtedly directed at Xue Jiao, she lowered her head in embarrassment, and Si Tou Feng saw everything in her eyes.

"What the imperial grandmother said is also true, Concubine Xue is delicate, and I really like it." Reached out and held Xue Jiao's hand, holding it tightly in the palm of her hand as if soothing.

Such explicit words, especially on such an important occasion, are undoubtedly a naked slap in the face to Concubine Yun.

The resentful gaze shot directly at Xue Jiao like a snake and scorpion, she hid it very well, Xue Jiao only felt a hot gaze looking at herself, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Concubine Yun's smiling eyes looking at her.

Xue Jiao smiled back shyly and nodded.

Concubine Yun suddenly spoke: "My sister is really envious of my sister!" has the emperor's love. Raised his eyes and glanced at Si Teng Feng, and lowered his eyes gloomily, why? are all his concubines, why has she never been in his eyes......

The harem, the grave of the girl's life, the place where she has devoted her life, but she can't get his love......

Is it hate? Still resentful...... Resentful fate? Or do you hate injustice......?

Concubine Yun's clenched hands suppressed the mixed feelings in her heart.

Xue Jiao looked at her and knew in her heart, in the harem, who doesn't want to be loved by the emperor? She hates, she understands......

Why don't you hate yourself? ……

said with a smile: "It is Xuejiao's blessing to be able to get the emperor's love." ”

, Concubine Yun's face turned pale in an instant, and she pursed her lips to endure the hatred in her heart, "Yes! My sister is really a blessing. ”

Si Teng Feng raised his eyes and glanced at Xue Jiao, hooked his lips and smiled, and his hand was also tightened.
