Chapter 16: The Reception Feast
After sunset, the lights were dimmed, and Rao is Jin Ge longed for time to pass slowly, and the palace banquet still started on time. She did not sit next to the Queen Mother and the Emperor in accordance with the wishes of the Queen Mother, but went to the next seat and sat quietly on the seat of Qingyang Houfu alone.
Usually this seat is mostly vacant, because the only descendant of Qingyang Houfu, the county lord of Jinge, will always sit next to the queen mother, everyone knows this, and the emperor has never removed this seat out of guilt for Jinge. There was laughter and laughter all around, only Jin Ge sat silently in his seat, looking at the wine glass in front of him in a daze, waiting for the worst outcome.
Jin Ge felt a darkness around her, and then someone sat down next to her, she turned her head to look and smiled.
It turned out that Ah Xuan, this girl, slipped over here to accompany her.
Gu Jinxuan resisted her father's slightly warning gaze, took the hands of the people around her regardless of it, and then smiled at the people on the throne, with a rebellious look on her face.
The emperor felt that he couldn't control Jinxuan's girl, but this situation was not once or twice, and it was not easy for children to play around, so he simply let her go.
Jin Ge felt a warm current coming from the hands of the two of them, melting the blood around him like being frozen little by little. "Xuan, thank you."
Gu Jinxuan smiled when she heard this: "Thank you for what good sister said, I'm also for my eldest brother." ”
Ling Zisu had looked for her before, hoping that she could help Jin Ge a little more, but she didn't care at first, Jin Ge's status was rarely wronged, so she left her eldest brother's request behind for a while, and didn't remember it until Jin Ge talked to her about her before.
Gu Jinxuan thought of this, and pouted, the eldest brother was kind to Jin Ge in a roundabout way, and he let Jin Ge know about it, and he didn't let himself say it.
Phew, man.
Jin Ge and Jin Xuan were both disturbed, and they didn't care too much about the situation at the palace banquet, they knew their temperament here, and the Queen Mother had already left the table when she was unwell, so Jin Ge didn't even bother to pretend, so she buried her head in the cup and sipped the drink in the cup.
"The third princess is really delicate and lovely, as white and flawless, and she is so pleasing that she is tight." Shizi looked at Gu Jinxuan, who was immersed in food, and said with a smile.
Everyone who heard this was stunned, and they didn't know what to say for a while. In the eyes of the elders in the palace, Gu Jinxuan and Mu Jinge are a pair of sisters who are very different, most of them praise Jinge for knowing etiquette, knowing how to advance and retreat, praising her for being good at singing and dancing, and being talented and beautiful, and for Gu Jinxuan, who is slightly contrasting, everyone really has nothing to praise, so they say that she is cute.
It's really the first time that someone has said that the third princess is likable.
Moreover, the appearance of this son of the world is very sincere, not like a joke.
Everyone in the banquet turned their heads to look at Gu Jinxuan, Gu Jinxuan just finished eating a chopstick, she looked up and saw these not very friendly eyes, she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and then smiled a little confused: "Eat and drink well, eat and drink well." ”
Mu Jinge covered his mouth with a handkerchief and reminded in a low voice: "Ah Xuan, the prince praises you." Gu Jinxuan asked happily, "Oh? What did he praise me? Did you say that my mold is good-looking? ”
Because Gu Jinxuan's cheerful voice was a little loud, and everyone was waiting for her to reply, after hearing her words, her face was a little embarrassed. Mu Jinge looked helpless, and said patiently: "At this time, you should praise him back, just say that he ......"
"It's okay," Shizi seemed to hear Mu Jinge's kind reminder, so he interrupted her. He didn't seem to mind Gu Jinxuan's "ignorance", and the smile on his face became a little thicker: "The princess is really a person with a good temperament." ”
Well, the prince fell in love with the third princess.
Everyone knows. But he couldn't see what the emperor's face meant, he didn't wait for Gu Jinxuan to reply, and said: "My third daughter, I was spoiled when I was a child, I was busy with trivial things in the world, and I neglected to discipline her, but taught her to be lawless." ”
"Father~ I really listen to you! Aren't you the Fa, aren't you the Heavens! "The rainbow fart that Gu Jinxuan blew with her mouth open was also cultivated with Jin Ge's output.
"That's it. The prince and the general came to visit in person, and they were dusty all the way, and they were tired when they thought about it, so they all dispersed. The Emperor said after taking his last sip of wine.
Waiting for the emperor, empress, and concubines to leave one after another, Gu Jinxuan got up and glanced at randomly, and suddenly remembered something, and looked back again.
It's him! It was the man in Tsing Yi that day!
Truss, isn't it Yuheng in turn!
It turned out that he was the son of Ji Guo. Yu Heng seemed to notice Gu Jinxuan's gaze, so he turned his head to look at her, Jinxuan's eyes were not very friendly, but Yu Henghao didn't care, but smiled at her kindly.
Gu Jinxuan doesn't like the prince of Ji Guo very much, and he will destroy the good marriage between Jin Ge'er and his eldest brother.
"Xuan, no." Jin Ge pulled Jinxuan and reminded her not to be rude to the prince. Jinxuan tried her best to tighten her unhappy face, casually saluted Yuheng, and pulled Jin Ge away angrily.
Yu Heng and the accompanying general Mo Jun looked at the two people who were far away, and after Yu Heng came back to his senses, he saw that his good brother Mo Jun was still in a daze, so he cared and said: "You are decisive in the army, and you rarely get distracted, what's wrong today?" ”
"I lost my parents when I was a child, stumbled and begged to make a living, when I was fourteen years old, I almost starved to death, it was a six-year-old girl who gave me food and money, so that I could survive, all the way to the development of the Ji country, and was appreciated by the prince to become the general of the Ji country, and had status and wealth." Mo Jun's always sharp eyes softened at this moment. "So you want to repay the favor after breaking through the world?" Shizi asked, and Mo Jun nodded: "The little girl has a lily-of-the-valley flower-like mark on the back of her left ear, and I seem to be dazzling today to see that the county lord also has a mark on the back of his left ear." ”
"When you return to Ji Kingdom, send someone to investigate carefully," Yuheng patted Mo Jun on the shoulder, "Eight years, you are really persistent." ”
