"The wife of General Huaiyuan." Hu Yanzhi smiled playfully: "This is the second time we have met. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Qi was suspicious: "Have you ever seen it?" ”

Rou Yun knew that he was afraid that he had already recognized himself as the person from the inn.

"Yes, Fang just glanced at each other from a distance in the Lingxiao Palace." Rou Yun's demeanor was leisurely, and her tone was gentle.

"I see." Emperor Qi did not doubt him, and asked Rou Yun in a soft tone, "What kind of talent is Mrs. Yue preparing today?" ”

"The courtiers are not talented, and they are willing to dance a sword dance." Rou Yun continued: "It's just that you can find a musician to accompany you and give you a light and soft sword." ”

Guo's eyes widened, because today's protagonist is a lady who has not left the cabinet, so the two of them are not prepared.

"Okay, then I'll send someone..."

"Father." Before Emperor Qi's words fell, he was interrupted by Huo Yan, "Erchen is willing to accompany Mrs. Yue." ”

Hu Yanzhi also suddenly spoke: "I have a soft sword in my hand, and I hope that Mrs. Yue will not dislike it." ”

"Oh? Yan'er accompanies the music, and the prince offers a sword. Emperor Qilehe: "I'm ready, Mrs. Yue will start." ”

"Yes." Rou Yun didn't bring a dance suit, but just took off the heavy cloak and took the soft sword handed by Hu Yanzhi.

Breaking the array, the soft long sword is out of the sheath, the sword weapon is muddy, Liu Li is frustrated, a pink coat is in the wind and floats like a green cloud, the waist is like a thin willow, the long hair is pouring down because of the action, the long sword is better than the snow, and the fluttering is like a dragon. At the end of the dance, he stood still, like a fairy descending to earth, making people dare not look directly.

"Good!" Hu Yanzhi couldn't hide his excitement.

Not as twisted as a deep boudoir woman, nor as savage as a tribal woman, if she is not a wife, she is the most suitable woman to be his wife, to be the mistress of the grassland, but after thinking about it, the Huns have a precedent for taking the wives and concubines of the defeated. If she enters the Central Plains in the future, and Li Guo is defeated and falls, then she will not be her own spoils.

"In the past, there was a beautiful woman Gongsun clan, and a sword weapon moved in all directions." Huo Yan muttered: "Mrs. Yue's dance, Miaojue." ”

"It seems that Mrs. Yue deserves to be the leader of this banquet." Emperor Qi had lust in his eyes, but unfortunately this person couldn't move.

Rou Yun didn't like that look, but she didn't show it, and leaned over: "Your Majesty praises it." ”

"Your Majesty, then reward the leader." Concubine Wen looked at Emperor Qi's lustful appearance, and looked at Empress Xue with vinegar on her wrinkled face, and was very disdainful in her heart.

"That's what Concubine Ai said."

Emperor Qi's big hand roamed around the waist of the concubine, and when he came to the buttocks and pinched it hard, the concubine exclaimed in a low voice, and the charm in her eyes was revealed.

"Someone! Reward! "Emperor Qi couldn't sit still, he just wanted to end it early and go back to the leopard room of the Golden Dragon Hall to have fun.

Gonggong Feng knew what Emperor Qi was thinking, and he moved quickly to bring Yuncao over, for fear that if he was delayed, he would be angry again.

"Mrs. Yue." Gonggong Feng handed over the cloud grass.

Rou Yun took the tray with both hands, never imagined that it would be so easy to get it, and saluted and thanked him.

"Excuse me, I'm not feeling well and go back to the palace to rest first, Yan'er, entertain everyone." Emperor Qi pulled the concubine up and left.

Empress Xue clenched her hands, her nails were deeply embedded in the flesh and she still didn't feel pain, she knew where Emperor Qi was unwell, but she was afraid that it was her desire to go up, and she couldn't stop it.

Soon after Emperor Qi left, the women's banquet disappeared, but the men's banquet next door was still talking and drinking.

Guo and Rouyun walked on the palace road and wandered.

"I'm scared to death today! said that the unmarried lady is the main one, how can you be involved! Guo stroked his chest, still a little palpitating.

"The fifth prince's concubine and Yuefu have been involved, and when she appears today, everyone can't help but want to compare me with her, the emperor is just as everyone agrees."

In fact, Rou Yun knew in her heart that she was just a pawn that the royal family wanted to cover up for Qu Ping, but unfortunately she didn't let them get her wish.

"Then I'm going to let them down today, my Yun'er is unprepared to be able to force her." Guo Shi couldn't help laughing, and then asked: "Didn't Xingzhi say that he would come today, why did he disappear?" ”

"I don't know, maybe something is delaying."

Rou Yun was also puzzled, he did mention the palace banquet to compete for Yuncao, but he didn't see anyone in the front hall at all.

"That's a shame! I didn't see Yun'er's sword dance, if he knew what he missed, I am afraid that he would regret it for the rest of his life. Guo sighed.

"It's just a simple dance, how can it be so good. Besides, my husband is a military general, and if he is present, he must not find fault with me. ”

"What did you say, I can't count the number of times I went to the banquet, it's the first time I've seen a woman dancing a sword so soft and strong, no, you have to dance again another day to show me!"

Rou Yun laughed: "Changyingyuan is waiting for my sister-in-law at any time." ”

The two of them came to the attic and prepared to leave with their personal maids, when a palace maid in blue clothes appeared and saluted the two.

"But the ladies of Yuefu?" The palace maid asked.

"Yes, we are about to leave the palace, I don't know what is going on?" Rou Yun replied in a regular manner, unable to figure out the identity of this person.

"I am Princess Duanshu's maid, called Red Sleeves." Red Sleeves saluted again: "The princess wants to invite the second lady Yue to gather in the pavilion, and the lady is alone." ”

Guo and Rou Yun looked at each other, unable to figure out the way. But the princess is a gentleman after all, and the princess's invitation cannot be shirked.

"I hope that the red-sleeved girl will explain a few words to my sister-in-law later." Rou Yun smiled, and then walked towards Guo's family: "Sister-in-law, you and Layue should go back to the carriage first, and when I am finished, I will go to you." ”

Guo knew the rules of the palace, nodded and agreed: "Okay, you have to be careful yourself." If there is anything, find a little palace to report it. ”

"I know." Rou Yun walked towards the red sleeves: "The girl in the red sleeves is tired of you leading the way." ”

"Madame, please."

The red sleeves led Rou Yun to the pavilion at the four corners, and a person was faintly visible in the pavilion draped in the gauze curtain.

"Princess, Mrs. Yue is here." Red Sleeves lifts the curtain and invites people in.

The woman turned around, wearing a gilded brocade robe, her black hair was like ink, and her posture was like jade, but it was a pity that there was a thick ink in her eyes.

"Mrs. Yue, please take a seat." The tips of Duan Shu's ears are slightly red, very restrained, this does not look like a princess, but like a little girl next door.

"Rou Yun has seen the princess." Rou Yun is still in order, after all, etiquette cannot be abolished.

Duan Shu stepped forward and really helped: "I'm exempt." It turns out that your name is Rou Yun, and your name is really nice. ”

"The princess is ridiculous." Rou Yun smiled and had a good impression of it: "I don't know what happened to the princess summoning the courtiers?" ”

Duan Shu's eyes darkened, and there was a wry smile on the corner of her mouth: "It's okay, it's just that I live in the palace all the year round and don't have any friends. ”

"The princess wants to practice dancing? There are many famous maiko in the palace. I'm just a scratch of the surface compared to them, so why don't princesses ask them to teach me? ”

"It's not different, I..." Duan Shu tugged at her sleeves, not knowing how to say it.

Seeing this, the red sleeves on the side explained to her with a smile: "Mrs. Yue, in fact, the princess likes you very much when she sees your appearance and sword dancing in the curtain today, and wants to make friends with you, but she is embarrassed to say it." ”

Rou Yun was a little surprised, and her eyes fell on Duan Shu, who hurriedly avoided it, and her face was even more flushed.

Rou Yun smiled: "If the princess doesn't think Rou Yun is from a humble background, then she will recognize me as a close friend in the boudoir." ”

"Madame, this is agreed." Duan Shu stepped forward to hold Rou Yun's hand, and the excitement in her eyes couldn't be hidden: "In this case, I will call you Yun'er, how about you call me Shu'er?!" ”

"Okay", Rou Yun shook back: "But I still have to call you a princess in front of everyone, after all, the etiquette cannot be abolished, if it is discovered by others, it will be punished." ”

Duan Shu didn't care and said, "It's okay, it's all up to you." ”

Red Sleeves smiled happily beside him: "Mrs. Yue will often come to accompany the princess in the future." ”

Duan Shu remembered something, remembered to grope on his body, until he took out a palace card: "This is a pass pass to enter the palace, you have to come to me often to play, after all, I may soon have to be with the pro-Huns." ”

"Shu'er, the matter is not settled yet, don't let yourself add to your troubles." Rou Yun looked at her lonely appearance and comforted: "You are the only princess of Li Kingdom, the emperor and queen will not agree to let you go and kiss." ”

Rou Yun knew in her heart that if it wasn't for Duan Shu to go to make peace, it would be another woman to go to make peace instead of the princess, although it was very unfair to that woman, but there were still many families who were willing to sacrifice one person in exchange for the prosperity of the whole family, everything was a transaction.

"I hope so, although I don't want to make peace, but if it is for the sake of the relationship between the two countries, what does it matter if I sacrifice one person. I am the only princess of the Li Kingdom, I have been clothed and fed since I was a child, and I rely on the country's money to support me, and it is my mission to obey the arrangement. Duan Shu smiled bitterly: "My father voluntarily negotiated peace with the Huns, if it weren't for the strong opposition of the queen mother, he would have already made me and the Xiongnu." ”

"Your Majesty has his own holy judgment, and the princess has never been allowed to show up to meet the Hun mission at the palace banquet today, so I think I have other ideas." Rou Yun comforted her, at such an age and status, she should have been pampered and admired by everyone, but now she has a lot of sorrows.

"Yes, princess, everything is still undecided." Seeing this, Red Sleeves changed the topic: "Do you want to think about Jin Gongzi, are you willing to do it?" ”

"Young Master Jin? Mo not... Is the princess's sweetheart? Rou Yun lowered her head at the speed of light, blushing, knowing that she had guessed correctly.

Duan Shu rubbed her handkerchief, bit her lip, and raised her head after half a sound: "Yes, I am happy with Jinle." ”

Jin Le, Rou Yun knows this person, the champion of the new science and martial arts, and now he has a six-rank cloud cavalry captain. He once served in the Yuexun army and had a very good relationship with Yuexun.

"Does he know then?"

"I don't know, I only told you, Rou Yun, you must not tell others." Duan Shu carefully observed the surroundings and said seriously.

"If you like it, why don't you tell him?"

Duan Shu shook her head: "I can't do anything with him." ”

"Why? Is it because of the disparity in status? Rou Yun knew that Jin Le was born in a poor family, his parents died, and he grew up eating hundreds of meals.

"Yes and no. I have never treated him as a person, but I can't make the decision on the marriage matter, if I escape the Huns and relatives this time, my father and queen mother will only match me with the family to consolidate my position, and I can't call the shots. Duan Shu was even more sad, and her eyes were soaked with tears: "Just let me take a good look at him." ”

Rou Yun gently wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and didn't mention it again, but she was thinking in her heart that no matter what, she would also ask Qing Jinle's heart.

Rou Yun chatted with the princess for a while, and it wasn't until Guo sent Layue to visit a few times that Duan Shu reluctantly sent Red Sleeves to the palace gate.

Guo was wandering at the gate of the palace, and when he saw Rou Yun, he strode forward, took her hand and turned around to check.

Red Sleeves smiled: "Our princess is a beast?" Can you still gnaw the general's wife? ”

Guo Shi realized that his behavior was inappropriate, and hurriedly apologized: "The courtiers didn't mean that, it's just that the younger brother and sister have been away for a long time, and they are a little worried." ”

"Red-sleeved girl, just send it here, hurry back and serve the princess." Rou Yun held Guo's hand and comforted: "Sister-in-law, it's okay." ”

The red sleeves saluted: "The slave and maid will retire, and Mrs. Yue will go slowly." ”

Rou Yun nodded in acknowledgment and got into the carriage with Guo.
