Chapter 388: Turned into a Competition?
As Shangguan Li said, the emperor was probably afraid that few people would come to participate because of the weather, so he directly made a decree.
As long as he has the courage to participate in the water flower grabbing and wins the first place, the emperor will personally reward him with a request.
As soon as the will came out, the protagonist of Weiyang Palace tonight suddenly changed from Shangguan Li to this competition.
That is the emperor's promise, and it is difficult to chase after a real word. If you can get the favor of the emperor, what gold, silver and money, and what kind of power can be mastered, isn't it all a matter of one sentence?
Shangguan Li felt that if it weren't for the fact that this competition was originally started because of herself, she also knew that the audience of this reward did not include herself, and she would have to fight for this will.
But now......
Feeling the eyes around her that suddenly became fierce, she once again felt the emperor's methods.
If he continues to maintain it like this, maybe he can really bring Da Zhou a different future.
Of course, such an idea was only fleeting.
She now needs to deal with what is in front of her first.
Torches were lit around the lake, and the forbidden army surrounded half of the lake, a total of two layers, one to protect the torches from the wind and rain, and the other to prevent those who were not able to rush up and not get up.
Take a hand when it matters.
After all, the people who can be invited to the Dao Palace to participate in Shangguan Li's birthday banquet will definitely not be able to do it by ordinary civilians.
Therefore, among the people who came this time, it can basically be called a younger and smaller version of the spring hunting period, Shangguan Li looked at it at a glance and saw a lot of people who could not be named, but they were still familiar.
"Huh?"
Her gaze suddenly stopped on the two of them standing side by side under a big willow tree.
It was a man and a woman, the man's body was tall, and he didn't know how much more upright than the average boy. The girl's appearance is very cute, and at first glance it is a standard image of a good girl.
Shangguan Li patted Shangguan Bu's arm.
"Look, isn't that little girl you have your eye on over there?"
Shangguan Bu was almost hit by her light and heavy slap, and before he could recover and hear this sentence, he was not angry for a while, nor was he justified.
I really suffocated my internal injuries.
"What nonsense? I said that I don't have that kind of relationship with Miss Xiyun, and she is so easy for me to make that or something, and the stress muscles ......"
"Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder."
"Yes!"
Shangguan said leisurely.
"It's easy to have psychological shadows."
Shangguan Lihu glanced at him suspiciously, she looked left and right, the little girl named Liu Xiyun didn't look like a person who could hold bad water in her stomach.
Shangguan Bu said expressionlessly.
"When I see her, I think of you before."
Shangguan Li was stunned.
"Then you think of you now."
He shuddered, thinking that it was not a wonderful thing.
Could it be that the original body used to be the image of Liu Xiyun in the eyes of others? There is weakness, but without that face, naturally she can't get such preferential treatment.
While they were chatting here, the two men over there also saw them.
The corners of Shangguan Li's mouth twitched, and he had to take the first step.
Those two people Liu Xiyun are okay, Liu Ye doesn't know what's going on, maybe he was brainwashed too thoroughly by her when he was in Anshan, and now he has a look of adoration when he sees her.
And the annoying ability has already approached Li Zhan, and even in this kind of place where there are many people, his power is even greater.
It's the kind of person Shangguan Li is not good at dealing with.
"Eh, why are you going?"
Shangguan Litou didn't go back to the tunnel.
"The guests are almost there, and I, the protagonist, can't go back to Weiyang Palace to receive it?"
"Cut."
Seeing her figure walking away in two clicks, Shangguan Bu touched his chin and sneered.
"It's not that I'm afraid of trouble."
"Hey, Brother Shangguan, why are you alone?"
When Shangguan Bu turned his head, the disdain on his face had completely turned into a sincere smile.
"Alas, isn't this Brother Liu? Why, am I you disappointed? β
Liu Ye scratched his head a little shyly when he heard this.
"That's not it, it's just that I seem to have seen the county lord, and I still have a lot of questions I want to ask the county lord, so I ......"
Ask her?
It's better to find a random book to read.
Shangguan Bu secretly slandered, but he still maintained a smile on his face.
"Oh, my third sister, she really just left, and she has some things to do in the palace."
"Shangguan Gongzi."
A soft voice came.
It vividly interprets what it means to be gentle like water.
Shangguan Bu followed the voice and looked over, only to see Liu Xiyun with his head down, looking a little shy.
He suddenly reflexively shuddered and involuntarily took a step back.
Shangguan Li, who slipped away early, slipped into Weiyang Palace, although the promenade surrounded by wisteria flowers outside the palace was very lively, but the palace was very deserted.
It is estimated that she also knows that the main hall is her palace, and generally speaking, she can't enter.
Weiyang Palace is not big, and it is no different from other palaces in the palace, the only feature is that the courtyard is very large. It's too big, and it's basically a gravel road, with nothing, and it looks a bit bare.
Judging from the image alone, Weiyang Palace is really not a good place to go.
It's just that Shangguan Li has a soft spot for this kind of deserted and undisturbed place.
She walked around a little, and only met a few palace maids who sprinkled and sweeped.
It's a pity, if it weren't for the palace, she probably liked it a lot. It's similar to Jingtang.
"County Lord, County Lordβ"
Shangguan Li paused and walked outside the hall.
A little eunuch was relieved when he saw her.
"County Lord, ...... quickly"
"It's almost starting, I know."
Shangguan Li didn't wait for him to finish, went straight through the large courtyard of Weiyang Palace, walked out of the palace gate, and came to the shore of Banshan Lake.
A large open space has been cleared here, and a sheltered tent has been set up in the center that will never be disturbed by the rain, which does not affect the view and is still warm enough.
It's just that there's no one in there for the time being.
There is no need to guess with a wasted brain, Shangguan Li also knows who this is for.
On the left side of the lake, there is a small forest, most of which are planted with rare trees, because of their rarity, so the requirements for the growth environment are also very high.
To put it simply, after being watered by a few days of rain, it is more appropriate to say that it is a forest, rather than a few hemp poles supporting the sparse leaves.
If it weren't for the recognition of the Star Picking Pavilion when these so-called rare varieties were brought into the palace, it is estimated that this grove would have been uprooted a long time ago.
In front of the woods, there was a green meadow that had just emerged, and before the green spikes had time to grow taller, they were trampled by dozens of pairs of feet above and lost their temper.
Ahead of the green meadow was the water, and about two feet from the shore floated a black thing.
