The Mingguang Hall has long been newly arranged, and the colorful decorations that can be seen everywhere show that the atmosphere of the New Year is strong.

Emperor Tianqing arrived, everyone in the palace got up to take over, and after the emperor, the queen mother and the prince entered, the king of Xiling and the prince of An Guo avoided the golden brocade carpet laid in front of the palace, avoided the courtiers and bowed to the side door of the hall and entered the hall, kneeling in the hall with everyone.

The prince helped the queen mother and Emperor Tianqing to climb the high platform in the hall together, and after taking a seat, the mountain in the hall shouted.

Emperor Tianqing seems to be affected by the New Year's Festival, with a smile on his solemn face in the past, and even the Queen Mother, who has been sick for some days, is also a little happy.

After everyone sat down, Emperor Tianqing did not embarrass anyone, only said a few words of encouragement, after receiving the prayers of the courtiers, he sang and danced, looked at the first few relaxed and comfortable chatting and laughing, and the people below also relaxed, when the atmosphere in the hall was lively, Emperor Tianqing and the Queen Mother, the prince talked and laughed, the courtiers and relatives toasted from time to time, but the King of Xiling held the wine glass and sat in the banquet but was restless.

Since entering the hall, he has found Xue Nuo's traces, and he has also seen the Shen family, but Feng Yuan has never appeared.

As a close minister of the Son of Heaven and the "Yuan Fu" of the inner court, he should have stayed in the palace with his attendants at this kind of banquet, not to mention that Feng Yuan had to respond to tonight's affairs, but since he entered the palace, he has never seen Feng Yuan's figure, and even the person who connected has never appeared.

King Xiling couldn't help but glance at An Guogong, and then looked at Xue Nuo in the corner, trying to see something from the two of them, only to hear someone asking in his ears the next moment.

"What is King Xiling looking at?"

During the interval, the hall fell silent.

King Xiling noticed everyone's attention, raised his lips and said softly: "It's nothing, the minister just hasn't returned to Beijing for a long time, and he found that His Majesty has added many young talents to the court." ”

Emperor Tianqing followed his gaze, and when his gaze fell on Xue Nuo, he suddenly chuckled: "You say he, where is he a talent, but he is just a bad person." ”

King Xiling looked puzzled.

Emperor Tianqing said with a smile: "His name is Xue Nuo, it is the child who saved me in Jiuli Mountain before, Jiuli Mountain was dangerous, if he didn't fight to save me, I'm afraid I would have lost my life a long time ago, for this I had given him an official position, and wanted to let him enter the country to study, but he was good, he didn't agree to live or die, and said that I would take revenge on him, and he would not be motivated." ”

There was a bit of intimacy in his words, which seemed to be narrow, and it seemed to be a joke.

The rest of the people in the hall were all stunned.

No wonder......

Previously, everyone knew that Jiuli Mountain was dangerous, if it weren't for this Xue Nuo desperately saving Emperor Tianqing, I am afraid that he would have lost his life a long time ago, obviously taking the credit of saving the driver, and risking a life to be seriously injured and dying, but after returning to Beijing, there was nothing to say in the palace, and there were many people who felt that Emperor Tianqing was unkind, but it turned out that she was unwilling?

Xue Nuo felt the incomprehensible and foolish gazes of those people in the banquet, and he couldn't help but show mockery.

Her uncle is really as despicable as ever, after realizing that something is wrong, he really refuses to bear even the slightest stigma, obviously he has not yet determined who she is, he has already wanted to clean up his ungrateful reputation in advance, calm the previous "life-saving grace", and by the way, block all her retreats.

If she responds to these words, everyone will think that she is stupid and dull without ambition, and Emperor Tianqing will not be able to support the wall if he intends to carry it.

But if she shouldn't, then what did she mean by what she said to Emperor Tianqing at the beginning? Is it to retreat as advance, or to deliberately deceive the king, or to conspire with others to make an assassination in Jiuli Mountain, and want to rely on the credit of saving the driver to seek more benefits for the people behind her?

Xue Nuo let out a slight sound when he put down the cup containing the fruit wine in his hand: "Your Majesty, don't wronged me, how can I become an official at such an age, even if I am idle, I am afraid that I will be drowned in saliva, and I will later promise you to go, but who makes people look down on me, and I have not seen a letter from me for many days." ”

"Although I am thick-skinned, I have to take care of Your Majesty's face, this is really dead and entangled, people who know that it is the national eunuch who does not respect the holy will and neglect His Majesty's benefactor has no respect, I don't know, I think Your Majesty has not explained them at all, and what I said is just casual fooling."

Emperor Tianqing didn't expect Xue Nuo to make his face in public, and his face suddenly sank.

Everyone in the hall also sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and they were silent.

"Xerno." The crown prince frowned and reprimanded, "Don't be rude to your father." ”

Xue Nuo tilted his head: "How can I be rude, didn't Your Majesty say that I was skinny?" ”

Her eyebrows are lightly raised, her peach blossom eyes seem to be smiling, and her extremely prosperous appearance looks sharp and compelling.

"When I saved Your Majesty, it was a coincidence, I didn't ask for anything in return, it was Your Majesty who took the initiative to find me to repay me, but now I am a scoundrel."

"I've only been in school for a few months, and I haven't memorized all the four books and five classics, and the Meng Shen family has only taken in the Shen family to have a foothold in Beijing, how can I be an official in such a situation? If Your Majesty really has mercy, why don't you give me some gold and silver homesteads, and don't give me a knighthood to get shelter, at least no one dares to deceive me at the feet of the Son of Heaven? ”

When Emperor Tianqing looked at Xue Nuo calmly, the Queen Mother's face on the side was already ugly.

"Presumptuous!" The Queen Mother slapped her chair and scolded angrily, "Thunder, rain and dew are all blessings, who allows you to speak so wildly in front of the saint?!" ”

Xue Nuo raised his eyebrows: "Didn't Your Majesty mention it first, it turns out that the Holy Front can't tell the truth?" Well, the villain knows his mistakes, and the Queen Mother forgives his sins. ”

Queen Mother: "......"

Seeing that the Queen Mother was so angry that her chest was heaving, Emperor Tianqing was also calm, everyone in the hall was holding their breath and even breathing, looking at the young man who was still sitting in the banquet without moving at all but not talking shockingly, and for a while I only felt that she was afraid that she was not crazy.

King Xiling held his breath before, and now he saw that Emperor Tianqing was stunned by Xue Nuo, and he couldn't help but laugh lowly: "Don't be angry, I see that this child is a frank and honest person, young and frivolous and outspoken, and he must not be offended." ”

"Your Majesty has mentioned the danger of Jiuli Mountain several times, and Chen Yuan was full of fear when he heard about it in Shuozhou, it would be good if this child could sacrifice his life to save him, His Majesty and the Queen Mother are magnanimous, and they must not worry about a child."

Emperor Tianqing held it in his throat for a while, and only after a while did he say in a deep voice: "I and the Queen Mother naturally won't. ”

The Queen Mother wrinkled her eyebrows and was very unhappy, but even if she was very annoyed that Xue Nuo didn't know what to do, the emperor couldn't say anything anymore when he had already spoken.

There was a stalemate during the banquet, and everyone could see that several people in the high position were fighting.

King Xiling was still thinking about it when he didn't see Feng Yuan, but at this time, seeing Xue Nuo mocking Emperor Tianqing like this, almost cutting off her own way back, and An Guogong on the side seemed to have known that he didn't show the slightest difference, and his heart suddenly relaxed.

He had never been in the capital to know about the affairs of the palace, but Xue Nuo and they had always been in the capital, if there was really a problem on Feng Yuan's side, how could she dare to talk to Emperor Tianqing like this?
