Chapter 257: Assassination in the Night
Chu Muchen also stood up, smiled evilly, and said with echo: "Yes, Brother Mu, the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold!" ”
Mu Zefeng looked at Mu Zhiyu speechlessly: "Yu'er, big brother reminds you again, you can't be really spoiled by this guy." ”
"I finally found Xiao Yu'er, we are going to continue to contact the relationship, you go to accompany your bride after the toast, don't fan the flames here." Chu Muchen glared at him, and then shouted for him to quickly dodge.
Ling Feng and the others were really ignored by them, and they waited there for a long time with their wine glasses, and they only heard them talking.
Ling Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "Two young masters, on the day of the big day, let's say a few words." ”
Mu Zhiyu gestured towards Ling Feng and gave him a big thumbs up.
After Mu Zefeng left, Chu Muchen continued to chat with Mu Zhiyu, and before he knew it, time passed quietly......
Three days after getting married, the bride wanted to go home to save her relatives, and Lan Ling'er was naturally exempted. And on this day, Lan Yuanwai began to dismiss the people in the house, sell their property, and when everything was taken care of, they followed Mu Zhiyu and them to Ziling Country.
Mo Luxi's army would not be able to return to the imperial city until seven days later, while Xiao Luoyu and Xuan Ruojue were already on their way back to the city, and they would soon arrive at the imperial city under the secret protection of Ling Jiu.
On this day, Ling Jiu sent a letter that Xiao Luoyu and Xuan Ruojue would be able to return to the palace in the evening, so Murong Ling Che set up a banquet in the palace, and invited Xiao Yan, Xiao Luojue and Xiao Luodie over, just as a family meal.
The Imperial Garden was brightly lit, and only one table was set up for a banquet. The army has not come back yet, and tonight is not a celebration banquet, just an ordinary tribute to Xiao Luoyu.
"Gong Xiao Guo, Major General Xiao, Miss Xiao, please sit down for a while, the emperor will come over soon."
Xiao Yan nodded and said, "There is Lao Quan's father-in-law." ”
After Xiao Luojue came back from Yanxi Mountain, he was still so calm and introverted, dressed in green clothes, but he was more mature and energetic than before. He was sent by Xiao Yan to Yanxi Mountain to learn art, which was originally to let him serve the country, and now he is named a major general, which makes him have the ambition to make a contribution.
Xiao Luodie's temperament is still quiet, but she has a more lively aura than at the beginning, and she is no longer the girl who will be nervous and scared when she sees strangers. Her change made Xiao Yan overjoyed and even more gratified.
However, Xiao Luodie would feel scared every time she saw Murong Lingche, Xiao Yan looked at her daughter sitting quietly beside her and asked, "Die'er, although the emperor has a cold temperament, he is not as rumored by the outside world. When you see him, you just have to calm down and don't be nervous. ”
Xiao Luodie smiled to signal his reassurance: "Dad, I know." ”
Seeing her impermanence, Xiao Yan was relieved, and when he remembered that the stinky boy was going to bring his daughter-in-law back, he was so happy that his beard was about to float up.
glanced at a son and a daughter beside him, the same calm and quiet, and sighed invisibly, if that stinky boy was there, he would have been buzzing in his ears.
He coughed lightly and said, "You two, can you not always have this expression, your eldest brother is coming back, you guys should laugh too." ”
Xiao Luojue said helplessly: "Dad, the two of us are such temperaments, we are all very happy when the eldest brother comes back, but we don't have to be like you, the happy beard is about to fly." ”
Xiao Yan's eyes widened when he heard this, and he pressed his beard and said, "You stinky boy." Which eye saw your daddy's beard flying. ”
Xiao Luodie smiled and said: "Dad, we know that you miss your eldest brother, don't be too excited when you see your eldest brother, watch out for your body." ”
Murong Lingche watched the warm scene of their family from a distance, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, Xiao Luoyu was very pleased that he could grow up in such a harmonious and loving home.
Pacing slowly, he stopped them before they got up to salute, sat down in his position, faded away from his usual indifference and majesty, and said, "There is no difference between a monarch and a minister tonight. I am Yu's brother, and I treat you as a relative. ”
Xiao Yan touched his beard and smiled: "I feel very honored." ”
While they were talking, they heard the eunuch shouting: "His Royal Highness King Luo has arrived." ”
Xiao Luoyu took Xuan Ruojue's hand and walked over with a spring breeze on his face, he had already told him before entering the palace that there was no difference between monarchs and ministers tonight, just like a reception banquet set up by ordinary people for their relatives who went out and returned, and when he saw his old man, he was in a better mood than to say.
"Dad, I'm back!"
Xiao Luoyu greeted Xiao Yan and sat next to Murong Lingche, Xiao Luojue and Xiao Luodie both got up and greeted: "Big brother! ”
Xiao Luoyu smiled and waved his hand at them: "It's all a family, you're welcome!" ”
Xuan Ruojue walked up to Xiao Yan with a smile and said, "I've seen Uncle Xiao." ”
Xiao Yan smiled and closed his mouth: "Okay." ”
"I've seen the emperor!" Xuan Ruojue smiled at Murong Lingche and sat briskly next to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan looked at Xuan Ruojue's well-behaved appearance, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, on the other hand, Xiao Luoyu's lazy energy, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Stinky boy, I didn't even say hello when I saw the emperor." ”
Xiao Luoyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Dad, there has never been so much etiquette between me and Che!" Besides, even before, I never saluted him. We're both like one person, aren't we? As he spoke, he winked his eyebrows at Murong Lingche.
Murong Lingche directly ignored him, picked up his wine glass and drank it himself.
Xiao Luoyu touched his nose and smiled at Xiao Yan: "Che and I have always been in this way of communication, you don't understand!" ”
Xuan Ruojue covered her mouth and smiled: "Typical self-entertaining type." ”
"It's still the right description of the girl." Xiao Yan touched his beard and smiled, liking this daughter-in-law from the bottom of his heart.
This family banquet was very pleasant. After the dinner, Xiao Luoyu and Xuan Ruojue temporarily lived in the palace, and Xiao Yan declined Murong Lingche's kindness and returned to the house with Xiao Luoyu and Xiao Luodie.
The night is like water, with the coolness of the night, people can't help but feel lonely.
"Your Majesty, it's cold at night, you better go back and rest!" Seeing Murong Lingche standing alone by the lake, Father-in-law Quan couldn't help but remind him.
Murong Lingche stood with his hands in his hands, his eyes like a cold pool were deep and far, looking at the still lake, his thoughts seemed to drift to the distant shore.
This family banquet is the only one missing his Yu'er. A month's separation, for him, seems to have passed a thousand years.
At this time, outside the palace wall, a figure flashed, lingering for a long time, and finally could not escape the guard of the heavy and important masters, and flew away.
The carriage of the Xiao Mansion was galloping towards the mansion, and a dark shadow flew to the roof of the opposite house in the night sky, leaning over to observe the carriage gradually moving away.
The corners of his mouth under the veil suddenly hooked, the eyes that appeared in the dark night were as sharp as ghosts, and the hand that climbed the eaves clenched into fists, and suddenly flew up and chased after the carriage.
Xiao Luojue, who was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed, felt the aura of danger and suddenly opened his eyes...... (To be continued.) )
