On the third day of the third month of March, on this day, the emperor of Muyun invited the princess of Beihan and the concubine to participate in the purification, and two flowers bloomed, one for each table.

Bei Hanjing was led by the palace maid to the place where the palace ladies held the event, and when she got closer, she heard the frolicking of the women.

A group of women dressed in red and willow green squatted on the bank of the stream, splashing water on each other, playing happily and laughing.

Bei Hanjing avoided them from a distance, walked to the pavilion and sat down, stepped on the pavilion chair with half her feet, and without waiting for the palace maid to stop her, she scooped up the wine jar in the middle of the stone pavilion, held the wine jar and poured it a few times, her expression was satisfied, and she sighed: "Good wine, fragrant enough, but unfortunately not strong enough."

Bei Hanjing turned her head to look at the palace maids beside her who were staring at her pockets, and asked, "Are they all concubines in this palace?"

The palace maid saw Bei Hanjing's rude behavior of stepping on the stone chair and holding the wine and drinking, and she was disdainful, but she replied respectfully on the surface.

"No, princess, in addition to the concubines in this palace, there are also young ladies from other clans."

"Oh? Introduce me later. Bei Hanjing looked at the group of women and raised her eyebrows. The subordinates did not stop, poured a few sips of wine, and picked up the fruit in the fruit bowl, and ate it with a swagger.

The palace maid couldn't bear it anymore, and was afraid that she would be punished later, so she said in embarrassment: "Princess, this banquet hasn't started yet, you can't be like this."

"I forgot, you have a lot of rules for Muyun, if you are offended, please bear with me, when will the banquet start, and how long will it end?" Bei Hanjing put down the wine jar and fruit in her hand and said with interest.

"The queen and the queen mother will start when they come, and the time will be about more than an hour." The palace maid hurriedly recovered the fruit plate that had been messed up by Bei Hanjing, and just finished answering, she turned around and saw that her figure was gone.

"Hey!"

Mo Xiangli was standing alone on the shore away from the crowd, thinking crankily in his head. Suddenly, the back shoulder was patted, and he was so frightened that he reflexed, grabbed the hand behind him and threw it over the shoulder, but he was firmly pressed on his hands, and his shoulder was like being weighed on a thousand pounds.

Bei Hanjing suppressed Mo Xiangli, who was about to counterattack, leaned close to her ear, and whispered dangerously: "You know martial arts."

"Who are you?" Mo Xiangli looked back and asked coldly. The woman behind her, with cold and deep facial features, has many thin braids on her head, and is wearing a foreign men's dress.

"You are Han Yan, you are all beautiful little wild cats, you love to show your paws." Bei Hanjing looked at it and teased in a low voice.

"You?" Mo Xiangli felt that she had no malicious intent, and when he heard his real name from her mouth, he couldn't help but wonder, and secretly said in his heart: Could it be someone sent by her brother.

"I'm Bei Hanjing, your sister-in-law." Bei Hanjing let go of Mo Xiangli, and smiled heartily and kindly.

"Did my brother ask you to come to me?" Mo Xiangli looked Bei Hanjing up and down curiously, and when he saw her tall and mighty figure, he couldn't help but smile.

"That's right, he asked me to ask you, is the first bottle down?" Bei Hanjing asked.

"I already ordered the first bottle last night." Mo Xiangli cautiously looked left and right, and said softly.

"By the way, my brother asked me to secretly investigate my father's affairs, and I have some eyebrows, I heard that my father was imprisoned in a place that the emperor knew." Mo Xiangli seemed to remember something, and quickly told her the news.

"Li'er, the banquet is about to begin." When Hua Xihuan approached Mo Xiangli, she saw the new palace maid beside Concubine Rong secretly sticking to the side of the rockery.

When the palace maid heard someone coming behind her, she immediately bowed her head and hurried away.

Hua Xihuan couldn't help but look back again, the palace maid with a fresh face, a little puzzled in her heart, she was sneakily eavesdropping on something.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go out first." Mo Xiangli heard Hua Xihuan's page, bowed to Bei Hanjing, and took the lead in saying goodbye and leaving.

Mo Xiangli walked out quickly, took Hua Xihuan's hand, rushed to the direction of the banquet, and urged: "Let's go."

Hua Xihuan heard the sound of music at the beginning of the banquet, coupled with Mo Xiangli's urging, and forgot to say that she had just met the palace maid beside Concubine Rong.

At the entrance of the banquet, the gathered crowd took the initiative to disperse an avenue, revealing a team of palace maids holding dusty hands, leading two well-dressed women forward.

The woman on the left, with a variety of jinghai hairpins on her head, meticulously combed hair, and a lot of momentum, is the current Empress Dowager Sima.

The woman who was supporting her next to her, about twenty years old, dignified and generous, and the well-dressed woman was the queen of the country, Murong Yi.

Mo Xiangli This is also the first time to see the queen, her appearance is very ordinary, it can only be said that she is beautiful, among the many harem beauties, the color is dull a lot, but it is better than the extraordinary, dignified and generous, to the difference.

When she was quietly looking, the queen's eyes suddenly swept over her and stopped at her for many seconds, Mo Xiangli immediately lowered his head, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

The law of survival in this palace, if the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it.

The queen's gaze quietly moved away, and she helped the queen mother towards the octagonal pavilion, and the palace ladies lined up in pairs on both sides.

The queen mother coughed her throat and stood in front of everyone, Fengyi was majestic, low and quiet and couldn't even hear a needle, and many female relatives lowered their eyes slightly, staring at the queen mother below the neck.

Bei Hanjing stood behind the female dependents, and she was very outstanding, a head taller.

Bei Hanjing listened to the old queen mother Rory talk a lot of prefaces, and finally finished it, but the queen began to talk a lot again, and finally announced the start of the banquet, and the bored ones were about to roll their eyes.

Bei Hanjing felt that she was good at teasing women, but she would definitely collapse if she wanted to be with women, this group of girls, her hands couldn't resist her shoulders and couldn't pick them, and the topics they talked about were nothing more than jewelry, clothes, makeup and some extremely boring gossip, she felt like a stone falling into cotton, and she was not strong.

Bei Hanjing was just about to find a corner to drink wine, but was stopped by the queen.

Bei Hanjing walked into the pavilion suspiciously, the queen came out and pulled her to sit down hand in hand, toasted a glass of wine and said: "I have always heard that the princess of Beihan is a heroine among women, and today I see that it is really extraordinary." ”

Bei Hanjing took the wine and drank it, grinning reservedly: "The queen is too modest." ”

"Does the princess think that in recent days, Mu Yun's palace is still used to living?" Murong Yi picked up the wine jug again, poured wine for Bei Hanjing, pushed the wine glass down in her palm and said.

"It's good, it's good." Bei Hanjing said as she looked at the wine.

"Can the princess experience our Muyun's purification?" The queen looked at the edge of the stream, and the women playing in the water asked with a smile, this smile was indescribably virtuous.

"No, today's beauty explained to me, he said that this is a unique festival in your Central Plains, every year on the third day of March, men and women get together to eliminate disasters and pray for blessings, and it is also a day for men and women to know each other and talk about love, but why are you men and women separated." Bei Hanjing raised her eyes and said, a trace of strangeness finally appeared in her eyes.

When the queen heard these words, she said hello in her heart, and said quietly: "The princess's concubine knows a lot, is he also Han?" ”

"The beauty is a Han person, but he also knows a lot about the rules of our Hu people, but his ancestors lived at the junction of Hu and Han, and his body is also mixed with some Hu blood, but most people think he is our Hu people when they first see him." Bei Hanjing's eyes lit up immediately when she heard her talk about Han Qing, and she couldn't wait to share some of his things.

"Hehe, I have seen him from afar, and I was really shocked, thinking that he was a Hu man. The princess and the colt are really in love, Xiu Yi is very envious, how did you meet? ”

When the queen heard Bei Hanjing call her husband a beauty, her words were full of deep doting, and she remembered that the emperor and herself respected each other, and her eyes showed a little envy.

"Beauty, I know him and there are some legends, this starts when I was fighting, I accidentally saw him taking a bath......" Bei Hanjing's voice was very loud, and gradually the surrounding female dependents came around, listening to Bei Hanjing talk about them leading troops to fight.

"Two years ago, in the Fengmu War, I personally commanded an army of 500,000. Halfway through the battle, the situation was a little unfavorable, and we retreated to Yangguan.

That night our army was stationed on the spot, and it was a hot summer in September, and you don't know how hot the weather was, and more than 100,000 of our army were suffering from heat stroke, and there was a river not far from our camp, and many people went there to bathe, and I couldn't sleep that night and ran to the trees by the river to cool off. ”

The other concubines covered their mouths and said curiously, "Princess, are you going there to peek at the bath?" ”

Bei Hanjing said disgustedly: "I grew up, I don't know how many men's nakedness, four legs, and a stick have been seen, just like looking at the butt of a pig and a dog, I don't feel it at all." Moreover, I was in the upper reaches of the river, far away from them, and I couldn't see them bathing. ”

When a group of women heard her say this, their faces turned red, and they said curiously, "Is there anything different about the pony bathing?" ”

"It's really different, I'm enjoying the silence in the tree, my eyes are sleepy, I hear the sound of rustling under the tree, and look down it turns out to be a small soldier who has run a long way, and I am going to take a bath here. What do you suppose I saw on the moon? Bei Hanjing suddenly started a riddle at this time, looked at the women around her, and said mysteriously.

"He's hurt?"

"Isn't that right?" Bei Hanjing shook her fingers.

"He's dark?"

"No, he's unusual."

“……”

When everyone guessed wrong many times, there was a sudden voice in the crowd below

"Could it be that he has two sticks?"

The person who spoke wildly, more than sixteen years old, petite and delicate, wearing a goose yellow dress, her eyes were large and there was a flash of wit in them.

When the other women heard this, their faces turned red, they patted her shoulder in a low voice, and said coquettishly, "Zhao Xinyan, what are you thinking in your head?"

"Hahahaha, no, guess again." Bei Hanjing was surprised that Mu Yun had such a wild woman, took a sip of wine, and shook her fingers with a smile.

"Could it be that he is a woman, a woman disguised as a man?" Zhao Xinyan's eyes widened, put her index finger against her chin, and pouted and guessed.

"No, no, he's really a man, guess." Bei Hanjing's face was unfathomable, and this group of women was completely aroused by her curiosity.

"There's something wrong with this pony, or something on it?" The queen couldn't help but guess.

Bei Hanjing continued to shake her head and said, "His body is not crippled, but he is very slender and beautiful, just like a jade man, but this is not the main thing that catches my attention. ”

"Is there any birthmark on your body?" The Empress Dowager Sima Jing was listening to the two of them quietly beside her, but she couldn't help but guess at this time.

Bei Hanjing still shook her head.

Sima Jing was a little surprised, and said from the perspective of ordinary people: "If the princess is not a birthmark, what kind of token is she carrying?" ”

"It's a little close, but it's not true." Bei Hanjing took a sip of wine and narrowed the range.

Everyone is becoming more and more curious, what is different about this pony?

Mo Xiangli was in the crowd, hearing everyone's speculation, but he didn't laugh.
