Chapter 114: The Old Fox
Yun Zhuyue and Qi Moxiao naturally saluted her, and the Queen Mother stopped beside Yun Zhuyue.
She has a good smell of sandalwood, which is caused by burning incense and worshiping the Buddha all year round and studying scriptures.
The wrinkled hand raised Yun Zhuyue's hand and looked at it, the Queen Mother smiled and said to Yun Zhuyue lovingly: "Look at what you are doing with a bitter face?" I don't know, I thought someone was bullying you. ”
The Queen Mother and the prince have always had a close relationship, and Yun Zhuyue had been taken care of by the Queen Mother when she entered the palace before.
It's just that I didn't expect that when everyone was hostile to her, the Queen Mother could still talk to herself with a smile.
Slowly, Yun Zhuyue's heart warmed, and a smile appeared on her face to thank the Queen Mother: "Thank you for the Queen Mother's concern, it's just that the concubine was infected with some wind and cold before, so her face looked haggard." ”
When she said this, she quietly took a step back, and distanced herself from the Queen Mother to show that she didn't want to infect her with the wind and cold.
The Empress Dowager's eyes were clearly looking at the emperor and the queen, which showed that she knew about Luo Qiaoyan's marriage to Qi Moxiao.
In the royal banquet, everyone wears a mask, and everyone is a master of hypocritical speech.
I saw the emperor get up from the dragon chair with a smile and greet him: "Why is the queen mother here?" Please be seated. ”
"Today is the queen's last birthday banquet, and the mourning family specially came to have a light meal with your new family, you shouldn't dislike me as an old woman, right?"
With that, she smiled to herself.
The arrival of the Queen Mother is undoubtedly not a variable, but the emperor seems to have his own plans.
After smiling and accompanying the Queen Mother to the queen's side and sit down, the emperor pointed to Qi Moxiao, who was standing below: "Queen Mother, I see that King Jiangchuan seems to have no heirs for a long time, so I thought that Miss Luo would be specially married to her, do you think Miss Luo may be her side concubine?" ”
The Queen Mother followed her gaze and glanced at Luo Qiaoyan, nodded with a smile, picked up a cup of tea, and skimmed the foam in the tea lid: "This girl looks at this is a good birth, come and let the mourning family take a look." ”
Luo Qiaoyan obediently stepped forward and respectfully saluted the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother looked at her when she pinched her, and when her eyes fell on Luo Qiaoyan's round face, she couldn't help but pause, and then smiled: "This girl looks like a blessed person." ”
"Hehe, thanks to the queen mother." When the queen heard her praise Luo Qiaoyan, she smiled and said to the queen mother.
Luo Qiaoyan also wanted to thank her, but as soon as her figure moved, she saw the Queen Mother pointing to the blue-clothed palace maid beside her: "This girl is called Cuiyu, and she has been serving by the mourning family since she was a child. ”
With such a loving smile, people couldn't see that she meant anything else, as if the Queen Mother just really loved this girl, so she rewarded her with jade.
But Luo Qiaoyan knew in her heart that this was someone deliberately put by the Queen Mother to monitor her.
The queen also secretly gave her a look at her at this time, and did not let him refuse this maid.
So, Luo Qiaoyan saluted respectfully and said, "Thank you, the queen mother." ”
The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the Queen Mother thoughtfully for a moment, and when he saw that the Queen Mother did not answer the question he just asked, he smiled and looked at Qi Moxiao like an old fox: "Lord, this is also for the sake of the heirs of the palace, this marriage is so decided, and I will draw up a holy decree later!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Yun Zhuyue's heart suddenly jumped, and he suddenly looked up at the emperor, his eyes were firmly fixed on the majestic figure, and there were some indescribable emotions in his heart.
It's just a pair of white jade-like hands, still clenched unwillingly.
Sure enough, even if she resists, is it still useless?
Obviously, he has already done this, but he still has to watch Luo Qiaoyan enter the palace!
Her eyes were cold, and suddenly, she withdrew her gaze from the throne and didn't look at the emperor and queen again.
These people are rotten.
She disdained to be in the company of it.
Fingers clenched quietly, and the decision that had been gradually made in Yun Zhuyue's mind was gradually made.
In the matter of Shenyue Valley, she really can't rely on anyone.
Qi Moxiao is limited in what she can do, and being able to find out those things for her is already a great help to her.
Originally, Qi Moxiao was still staring at Yun Zhuyue, but when he saw Yun Zhuyue suddenly withdraw his gaze from him, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Subconsciously, he looked up at the emperor, his heart was in a hurry, and his expression gradually refused solemnly: "Enlighten the emperor, the ministers are ...... about the matter of the heirs."
Before he finished speaking, he was indifferently stopped by the emperor raising his hand: "I know what the prince wants to say, but I have made up my mind, and the prince has to say more." ”
As soon as these words came out, they didn't give Qi Moxiao a chance to refuse at all.
This matter was decided by him on the board.
Luo Qiaoyan stood on the outside and breathed a sigh of relief.
She couldn't help but glance down at Qi Moxiao standing in the Jinluan Palace, the man was dressed in a black court robe, the satin fabric was brilliant, and the white tiger beast pattern embroidered on it was shining, which made his figure sassy and handsome.
Such a man is just placed in the crowd, and with his temperament, it is easy to see that he is the dragon and phoenix among people.
Marrying him, entering the palace, and winning the position of his wife, isn't it a good destination for Luo Qiaoyan?
The next chapter has gradually been written in his mind, and a smile gradually appears on his pink lips.
The feast continues as usual.
And the emperor withdrew his gaze from Qi Moxiao, ignoring Qi Moxiao's gradually clenched fingers and gradually gloomy face, he raised his hand and said to the musicians who were playing music: "Keep playing, continue dancing!" ”
The emperor didn't give Qi Moxiao a chance to refute at all, even if Qi Moxiao didn't want to marry Luo Qiaoyan to the mansion in his heart, he could only obey orders at this time.
Yun Zhuyue clenched his fingers on the side, and withdrew his gaze from Qi Moxiao from beginning to end.
The excitement in this banquet didn't seem to have anything to do with her, and Green Star was also distressed by Yun Zhuyue, but there was nothing she could do.
can only stand next to the cloud and silently pour wine month by month.
Some people laughed at this banquet, and naturally some people were unhappy.
Qi Moxiao's expression was faint, and he didn't seem to see anything on his face.
After all, the emperor's people have been staring at him, if something goes wrong at this time, I am afraid that Qi Ziyu, who is eyeing him on the side, will be eager to jump out and accuse him.
"What to do? Lord, the princess seems to be really unhappy......"
Cheng Ning glanced at it quietly, and in the direction where Yun Zhuyue was, he couldn't help but lean over and remind Qi Moxiao.
Qi Moxiao paused slightly, and followed his line of sight to look at Yun Zhuyue.
Yun Zhuyue always looked a little different among the palace concubines and ladies, with a sassy atmosphere of cherry blossoms on her body.
At this moment, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if she was a little unhappy.
That delicate face, but because of this thin anger, it is a little more moving.
His eyes moved, and Qi Moxiao withdrew his eyes from Yun Zhuyue.
"Got it, you secretly sent someone to protect the princess."
Cheng Ning didn't understand, why was Qi Moxiao still indifferent at this time?
Just listened to Qi Moxiao's instructions, so he didn't continue to think about it, and quietly retreated.
This palace banquet makes people feel like they are on pins and needles.
Fortunately, it didn't last long, and the Queen Mother was circling during the period.
Originally, those who wanted to be unfavorable to Yun Zhuyue swallowed all the ugly words in the mouth after the Queen Mother said a few words.
Will you only bump into the Queen Mother at this time?
And these people are silent, but Yun Zhuyue is indifferent.
Yun Zhuyue didn't know how this banquet ended, only that when the sound of silk and bamboo was about to stop, Green Star left the palace with her in his arms.
"Miss, watch out for the snow outside."
I didn't notice it when I was in the Jinluan Hall just now, and when I came out, the sky was black and dusty.
Not far away, a few scattered lone stars flickered, and some lanterns were shining in the red walls and green tiles in the distance.
The bustle and the light and shadow cut off the clouds month by month.
After taking a deep look, the palace behind him, Yun retracted his gaze month by month.
"Let's go back."
His voice was a little deeper.
The princess was not happy.
After following Yun Zhuyue for so long, Green Star naturally knew what Yun Zhuyue's every tone meant.
It's just that at this time, she couldn't say anything to comfort Yun Zhuyue.
Who would have thought that the queen did not attack Yun Zhuyue at the palace banquet on the first day, but forcibly placed Luo Qiaoyan next to Qi Moxiao on the last day.
It's really infuriating to say this.
When Qi Moxiao came out of the palace, Qi Ziyu followed him.
I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, I saw Qi Ziyu turn his head to look at him, with a vague smile in his eyes: "The prince is in the limelight at the palace banquet today, which is really an eye-opener for my generation." ”
"In addition, in order to congratulate the prince on marrying a beautiful woman, the Japanese store will send a congratulatory gift in a few days, I hope the prince will not dislike it."
This is clearly mocking Qi Moxiao.
Cheng Ning next to him frowned, but before he could say anything, he saw that Qi Moxiao had already raised his foot and passed by Qi Ziyu.
It seems that what Qi Ziyu said to him just now is a deaf ear.
This move made Cheng Ning breathe a sigh of relief slightly.
He was afraid that Qi Moxiao would have some conflict with Qi Ziyu at this time.
Because there were rumors in the palace that Yun Zhuyue was ambiguous with Qi Ziyu before, it was not a wise move to get involved with Qi Ziyu now.
seemed to know that Qi Moxiao wouldn't take care of himself, so Qi Ziyu didn't care.
He stood in place and watched Qi Moxiao leave.
It's just that there is a sarcastic smile on his lips.
The little eunuch next to him looked at it for a long time before bowing his head respectfully to Qi Ziyu and said, "Your Highness, the soldiers sent by the prince to monitor our prince's mansion have not been withdrawn, do you want to send someone to deal with it?" ”
"You don't have to, just let him keep an eye on it."
Qi Ziyu raised his hand lightly.
What the two of them are saying here can only be heard by themselves.
I don't know when the wind in the night was blowing a little stronger, and as soon as they finished speaking, the sound dissipated with the wind.
Watching Qi Moxiao eating turtles at the palace banquet today, Qi Ziyu was really happy.
When he turned to leave at this time, there was a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, and he looked more gentle and elegant.
Didn't Qi Moxiao want to stare at him?
Anyway, the matter about him hurting the prince has long been erased.
