readx;? The ceremony had already begun for a long time, and most of the people present were immersed in it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The banquet was deep, and Xufeng Chenhui finally 'got out' from the limelight.

From the time he came in to the present, he only said a word of etiquette to the emperor in the process, and then went to his seat. Since then, he has been dealing with the officials who have come to congratulate him, but he has been distracted.

In the meantime, Xufeng Chenhui has given the emperor more than one look.

But the other party turned a blind eye.

Finally, Xufeng Chenhui saw that the emperor had summoned a eunuch and commanded him for a while. He felt it was time for him to get up and step forward.

But the eunuch ran towards the musician's platform, and after a while, he returned with Qu Boyin and Qu Zhengyi.

The father and son, one after the other, came to the emperor and bowed.

Neither of them knew why the emperor had asked them to come over.

So Qu Zhengyi took the lead in asking, "Is the emperor dissatisfied with today's moon repertoire?"

The Emperor waved his hand and said, "Your father and son take a step forward." ”

The two stepped forward, and the emperor leaned forward to them: "I just want to say something - Zhuo Feng has a concubine, I remember that it is your maid from Changling Le Mansion, called Xin'er?"

The emperor suddenly mentioned 'Xin'er', which caught the Qu family father and son off guard.

Because before that, the emperor had never said anything about the land of northern snow and the inn. Not only Qu Boyin, but even his father Qu Zhengyi thought that the two parties were tacit, and the matter passed like this.

As long as Chang Lingle Mansion does not say anything, the imperial court will also suppress this matter.

It is precisely because of this that Xin'er was able to return to Changling Le Mansion to live for so long without causing any trouble.

Qu Zhengyi glanced at his son, and was about to reply, but Qu Boyin rushed to say: "Back to the emperor, there are hundreds of maids in Yuefu, and Weichen can't remember it." ”

Qu Boyin was afraid that the emperor would take Xin'er away, so he was lucky, thinking that the emperor didn't know that Xin'er had come to life in Changlingle Mansion.

Qu Zhengyi was frightened when he heard this, he has been with the king for decades, and he knows a truth - never try to hide things in the capital in front of the emperor.

"Back to the emperor, there is indeed such a thing," if it is like Qu Boyin, before the emperor can say anything about Xin'er, Qu Boyin has already been taken down for the crime of bullying the king, and even the entire Changling Yuefu will suffer, so Qu Zhengyi hurriedly said, "But Miss Xin'er is not a maid in Yuefu, but a musician, and she has now returned to Yuefu-"

"Daddy!"

Qu Boyin was in a hurry, and just shouted, but was interrupted by the emperor's laughter.

"Old Qu, I see that you are old and confused," the emperor said lightly, "The Xin'er I said unfortunately lost his life as early as when he was in the northern snow, and Zhuo Feng buried it with his own hands at that time, how could this dead man come to your Yuefu?"

The father and son of the Qu family looked at each other.

The Emperor continued: "I mean this not for anything else, but I have heard that there is a girl in your house who looks like that Xin'er, and who is in love with Boyin, and I plan to give you a marriage, and I hope that you will treat each other well in the future." ”

Qu Boyin was completely flattered, because it meant that he and Xin'er could be justified.

But he suppressed his emotions and turned to his father.

Qu Zhengyi is much more sophisticated than that, he knows very well that the emperor can't give marriage for no reason, and it is impossible for him to believe that the woman in Yuefu is just like Xin'er as he said.

"Thank you, Lord Longen!" Qu Zhengyi still thanked him first.

Qu Boyin also knelt down and kowtowed.

"Bo Yin, stand down first," said the Emperor, "Lao Qu, you wait a while." ”

"Yes. ”

Qu Boyin looked at his father worriedly, and then bowed back to the musician's stage.

"Old Song, do you know what I want now?"

Qu Zhengyi was not surprised that the emperor would ask this, or that he had expected that the emperor would not 'pretend to be stupid' for no reason, it must be another plan: "Weichen doesn't know, and he doesn't dare to speculate." ”

The emperor did not leave the chair, but leaned forward more, and then poked Qu Zheng's chest with his hand: "Loyal." ”

Qu Zhengyi was only stunned for less than half a second, and immediately replied: "Chang Ling Lefu has always been loyal to-"

The emperor didn't intend to listen to him, but smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay to keep it in mind, okay, you go and go about your business, today's music is not bad, I am more satisfied." ”

After Qu Zhengyi bowed, he also stepped down.

And Xufeng Chenhui, who was sitting on the other side of the stage, finally couldn't help it.

However, there were many people at the scene, and he couldn't go directly to the emperor and force him to speak.

After thinking about it, he got up and pushed away the toast of those officials and prepared to leave the table.

He had barely stepped out of his seat when the eunuch beside the emperor ran over.

"Your Highness, the Emperor has summoned you. ”

How could Xufeng Chenhui think that the emperor was really his father, and he still wondered in his heart whether he had a different heart and wanted to fake it.

He followed the eunuch to the middle, and the eunuch retreated, and he wanted to take a few more steps, when the emperor called out, "Don't move, just kneel there." ”
