250: Dinner in the Palace

In fact, compared with the sentence that human nature is inherently good, Long Jiu is more willing to believe in the sentence that human nature is inherently evil.

Human beings are born with greed, hatred, ignorance, slowness, suspicion and five poisons, in the process of growing up, after the acquired teaching, most people can restrain themselves, but there is another part of the people, even if they have received a good education since childhood, no matter how much positive energy is instilled, it is difficult for them to suppress the evil in their hearts, and they will always let the evil thoughts in their hearts come out at a certain moment, but this kind of person will still hesitate before doing evil, or lose his mind because of extreme emotions and do evil.

But there are a very small number of people, who are like a natural bad seed, who have bad thoughts about everyone and everything from the beginning, who are paranoid, selfish, extremely egoistic, even if they smile all the time, but their hearts are full of evil thoughts.

Lu Qingzhu is the last kind of person, born with a bad seed.

As the only daughter of the Lu family of the Blue Sirius Star, she enjoys a luxurious life that many people in this world dare not imagine, and has been spoiled by her parents and brothers in the family since she was a child.

No one knew why she looked like this, the people of the Lu family didn't know, and they didn't think about it the night before Emperor Zhaoxu died.

But Long Jiu knew that because of Lu Qingzhu's desire and desire for power, Lu Qingzhu, who had already rotted his heart and roots, inflated his desires more and more. People like her will never know satisfaction, her family's kindness to her, she will feel that it is right, it is taken for granted, and the love and reconciliation of the emperor back then also made her feel that she should be so spoiled.

But she will not be satisfied, the better the first emperor treats her, the deeper her desires, and even secretly thinks, why can't the first emperor treat her better?

And when the first emperor was seriously injured, Lu Qingzhu's first reaction was not to find a way to cure the first emperor, nor to cooperate with the doctor's treatment, but her first thought was that if the first emperor died, what would she do? Who can give her such a noble life as now, even if the crown prince is her biological son, she doesn't think that after the crown prince succeeds to the throne, she will spoil her like the first emperor.

Therefore, after the first emperor was seriously injured, she immediately thought of simply changing someone to be the emperor, and this person happened to be Xiao Junchen, who was interested in her at that time.

Lu Qingzhu felt that as long as she helped Xiao Junchen become the emperor, then the future queen would still be herself, and she would be the same as now, the most noble woman in this empire.

After her son succeeded to the throne, she was the queen mother, but where did the queen mother have the dignity of the queen?

So Lu Qingzhu teamed up with Xiao Junchen and poisoned the first emperor while he was seriously injured and recuperating.

She didn't care whether the serious injuries of the first emperor could be cured at that time, she only cared about whether it would affect her status.

Lu Qingzhu is such a selfish and bad woman who makes people gnash their teeth and feel ridiculously stupid at the same time, for such a woman, even if she is Xiao Zhiyun's biological mother, Long Jiu looks down on her.

Every time he mentioned this woman, the look of disdain in Long Jiu's eyes and face was completely undisguised.

Mrs. Lu also saw Long Jiu's attitude towards Lu Qingzhu, so she never mentioned that she wanted to meet Lu Qingzhu again.

After the two had lunch in the Heqing Haiyan Palace, Long Jiu accompanied Mrs. Lu to play and watch here for an afternoon, and it was not until the evening that Qian Bo and Chen Bo both came over and invited them to the banquet hall to attend the dinner.

When Long Jiu and Mrs. Lu passed, they saw from a distance that many ministers and ministers' families had come outside the banquet hall.

Mrs. Lu Jiu found Long Jihuai in the crowd, and it happened that Lu Junxiao was also there, so the two walked over together.

Long Jihuai and Lu Junxiao are the commanders of the Long Family Army, and the other is the head of the Blue Wolf Star, whether it is their official rank or their family background, no matter where they go, there will be many people who come to greet them.

Long Jiu looked at Long Jihuai, who was surrounded by a group of people, she didn't want to squeeze it, but Lu Junxiao in the crowd found Mrs. Lu outside the crowd at a glance, only to see that Lu Junxiao's originally expressionless face suddenly showed a gentle smile, and then squeezed past the people around him and walked towards Mrs. Lu.

As soon as Lu Junxiao made such a move, the others and Long Jihuai naturally discovered the two of them.

Compared with Lu Junxiao's thoughtfulness towards his wife, Long Jihuai raised his eyebrows and shouted at Long Jiu: "What are you still standing there for?" I haven't seen anyone for a day, so come here. ”

Long Jiu didn't want to go over, but Mrs. Lu beside her had been taken away by Lu Junxiao, so she could only reluctantly move towards Long Jihuai.

The people on the side couldn't help but laugh and said, "Miss Long hasn't participated in the palace banquet for many years, and this time the handsome man is finally willing to bring her baby granddaughter out." ”

"It's no wonder that the handsome man hides it tightly, if I have such a beautiful granddaughter, I will hide it too."

Long Jihuai listened to the jokes of the people around him, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Where is it that I hide it tightly, I didn't let her participate in the palace banquet because she wasn't in good health before, but now that she is well-nourished, this is why she is allowed to come out and walk around." ”

Hearing this, Long Jiu glanced at Long Jihuai, and muttered in her heart, why didn't she know that Long Jiujiu's health was not good? It is obvious that this bad old man is afraid that the innocent little white flower of Dragon Wine Wine will be bullied when it is released, and he is not worried about the emperor at that time, so he did not allow Dragon Wine Wine to appear in the palace banquet.

But Long Jiu muttered in her heart, but she still knew that she had to give face to this bad old man in front of people, so she pretended to be more obedient than anyone else, and stood by Long Jihuai's side obediently, but whenever other people around her said anything, she maintained a well-behaved smirk.

Just when Long Jiu felt that his face was about to stiffen with laughter, Lu Wei hurriedly walked over from behind the crowd.

None of the people present knew that Lu Wei was the most powerful person around the new emperor, so even though Lu Wei's official position was not as high as that of them, these people still greeted him warmly and cordially after seeing him.

Lu Wei nodded at everyone with a cold face, and when he faced Long Jihuai and Lu Junxiao, he finally had a little more smile on his face, he first nodded to the two of them, and then said to Long Jiu: "Your Majesty is looking for you, let your subordinates take you over first." ”

Long Jiu blinked and looked sideways at Long Jihuai.

The others heard this, their eyes flashed, and they smiled even more kindly when they looked at Long Jiu.

Long Jihuai snorted angrily in his heart, but still nodded and said, "Since Your Majesty is looking for it, then you should follow Major Lu first." ”

Long Jiu was happy in his heart, but he maintained a reserved and decent smile on his face, then said hello to Lu Junxiao and Mrs. Lu, and happily followed Lu Wei.

Finally getting rid of the group of people, Long Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, only to see that her reserved smugness disappeared immediately, poked Lu Wei's arm with her finger, and asked, "Brother, where is he now?" ”

"It's in the lounge at the back of the banquet hall." Lu Wei always had some awe for Long Jiu, so he always spoke with a hint of caution and respect, "Your Majesty wants you to follow him to the dinner later." ”

Long Jiu was a little stunned, "I'm with him?" It's not appropriate, right? ”

Don't think that she thinks she can fool her because she doesn't read much, then she also knows that at a dinner like this kind of state banquet, the only person who can attend with the emperor is the queen.

She's not his queen yet.

Lu Wei seemed to have known that she would ask this, and said directly: "What Your Majesty said, just take this opportunity to correct his name, you are attending the dinner with Your Majesty, this is to tell everyone that you are the future queen of the Xingluo Empire, lest some people want to play any crooked ideas with their desires." ”

Long Jiu suddenly became vigilant, "What do you mean?" Who's going to have a bad idea? What kind of bad idea do you want to fight? ”

Looking at Long Jiu, who was instantly vigilant, Lu Wei truthfully repeated Xiao Zhiyun's original words, "In the past, His Majesty was the crown prince, so some people could still restrain themselves, but now that the prince has become His Majesty, some people will be blinded by the wealth and power of the sky, and His Majesty is impatient to deal with those things that can't be put on the table, so I can only bother you to attend with him and help Your Majesty block the lust of those people." ”

Long Jiu blinked and understood, her feelings were for her to occupy the position of the queen in advance, so that those who wanted to fight Xiao Jiujiu could see clearly who was the future queen.

Long Jiu wanted to understand Hou Yile, she was very happy to do this, so she waved her hand and said, "Understood, dare to rob men with Benjun, Benjun will break their claws." ”

Lu Wei: "."

A moment later, outside the lounge behind the banquet hall, Lu Wei pushed open the door but did not go in, but turned sideways, and after Long Jiu entered, he closed the door very considerately and stayed outside to guard.

After Long Jiu entered, he saw Xiao Zhiyun sitting on the sofa resting at a glance.

Xiao Zhiyun was still wearing the black imperial uniform this morning, Long Jiu was itching when he saw him wearing this outfit, there were finally no outsiders at this time, she rushed over, and before Xiao Zhiyun opened his eyes, she pounced on him with a whimper.

Xiao Zhiyun chuckled and opened his eyes, lowered his eyes to look at a Long Jiu who was rubbing on his body, and said with a smile: "Do you like to see me wear this?" ”

Long Jiu was happy, raised his head and looked at him with bright eyes, "I like it." ”

Xiao Zhiyun smiled and lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose, and said, "In the future, I will have to wear this dress every day, so that you can see enough." ”

Long Jiu not only has to see enough, she also has to touch it.

Touching the epaulettes on her shoulders and the ribbon on her chest, she pretended to say while touching: "Hey, wouldn't it be too rebellious for me to eat His Majesty's tofu like this?" ”

Xiao Zhiyun couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's okay, His Majesty the Emperor allows you to eat tofu." ”

Long Jiu immediately showed a touched look, "Brother Xiao, you are so good~~~"

Brother Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "What is this name?" ”

Long Jiu's eyes rolled, and he immediately changed his words: "Then now it's called Brother Emperor?" ”

Xiao Zhiyun slowly narrowed his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you call your husband?" ”

Long Jiu sighed, and said with a coquettish face: "That's not good, I'm not married, I can't call this nonsense." ”

Her pretended shy expression directly teased Xiao Zhiyun, and Xiao Zhiyun smiled, Long Jiu also followed suit, and the two of them instantly laughed on the sofa.

After the two of them had enough, Xiao Zhiyun touched Long Jiu's face and asked gently, "I haven't seen you for a day today, I heard that you and your aunt spent an afternoon in the prince's palace today?" ”

"yes." Long Jiu was not surprised that Xiao Zhiyun would know, after all, Xiao Zhiyun could rest assured that she was not in front of him, so he would definitely have people watching her all the time and reporting his whereabouts to him at all times.

Being listened to all the time and reporting her whereabouts, Long Jiu didn't feel unhappy, she said happily: "This afternoon, my aunt and I visited your Heqing Haiyan Palace. ”

"Aren't you tired after walking around for so long?" Xiao Zhiyun asked with a smile.

Long Jiu shook his head and snorted lightly: "My aunt doesn't feel tired, how can I feel tired?" Underestimate me! ”

After speaking, Long Jiu paused again, and then said, "But today my aunt mentioned that I want to meet that woman." ”

Xiao Zhiyun raised his eyebrows.

Long Jiu quickly said again: "But I refused." ”

Xiao Zhiyun chuckled, "Aunt is a person who misses old loves, if it weren't for the woman's current appearance, it would be unsightly, and it would be okay for my aunt to go and see her." ”

"That's what I said." Long Jiu smiled and said, "I explained it to my aunt, and I described the woman's current appearance well, and my aunt seemed to be scared." ”

Xiao Zhiyun looked at her with a smile, and then nodded lightly on the tip of Long Jiu's nose, and said, "You can hide it, it scared your aunt, and you don't worry that your uncle will come to trouble you." ”

Long Jiu immediately pampered and said proudly: "Don't be afraid, my brother will protect me, even if you can't stand it, brother, my uncle can't beat me." ”

Xiao Zhiyun was almost laughed at by her words, he really wanted to see the scene where his uncle couldn't beat his own children.

I have to say that Long Jiu is bad, and Xiao Zhiyun is not far behind.

The two of them were tired of being in the lounge for a while, and only then did Lu Wei's reminder come from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the time has come, it's time to pass."

Xiao Zhiyun got up with Long Jiu in his arms, first straightened Long Jiu's clothes and hair, and then straightened his own, and then took Long Jiu's hand, and the two walked out of the lounge together.

The banquet hall was already full, and in the midst of the staggering, a shout of 'Your Majesty has arrived' interrupted the conversation in the hall.

Everyone got up at the same time and looked out of the door, only to see that a moment later, the new emperor, dressed in an imperial uniform, walked in with Long Jiu.

After everyone saluted, many people quietly turned their eyes to look at Long Jihuai, but the handsome man looked calm, as if the person who was brought in by His Majesty the Emperor was not his granddaughter.

Moreover, Xiao Zhiyun did not send her to sit next to the handsome man after leading Long Jiu in, but led her all the way to the imperial seat.

At this time, you can see Lu Wei's ability, as soon as the two of them walked up, Lu Wei had already brought someone to move a new table and chair, which happened to be placed next to the emperor's seat.

The others in the hall took a breath lightly, what is the intention of His Majesty the Emperor, everyone present is clear in their hearts.

Your Majesty is telling everyone that the only heir of the Long family will be the future queen of the certainty.

Even if the wedding has not yet taken place, His Majesty will let the future queen exercise the prerogatives of the queen in advance.

Other people still lamented in their hearts that His Majesty the Emperor really hurt his fiancΓ©e, but Long Jihuai was very satisfied with His Majesty the Emperor's current style.

That's how it should be!

It should be known to everyone that His Majesty does not care about his fiancΓ©e because of the command of Emperor Zhaoxu, or because of the power of the Long family, but really has a heart.

You must know that the handsome man was so angry with the temptation or sourness in the words of many people before the banquet that he wanted to beat someone, and now His Majesty the Emperor personally led Long Jiu to appear and sat next to the emperor with Long Jiu, this is undoubtedly not a resounding slap in the face to those who want to beat Xiao Jiujiu.

Reputation is really important!

It didn't matter what some of the people at the banquet thought, but Long Jiu ate happily.

It is worthy of a state banquet, and the imperial chefs in the palace have taken out their housekeeping skills, and every dish is done very carefully.

Long Jiu doesn't have to worry about those intrigues, nor does she have to deal with those people, she just needs to concentrate on eating, and there is a Xiao Zhiyun who has been serving her vegetables by her side, so Long Jiu eats more happily.

This dinner was also broadcast live throughout the empire like the coronation ceremony in the morning, so tens of billions of people who watched the live broadcast saw Long Jiu sitting next to the imperial throne and concentrating on eating.

The barrage in the live broadcast room all became haha, because the scene of Long Jiu focusing on eating made her inadvertently circle a lot of fans.

Many people laughed on the live broadcast and said that the future queen is cute, and it is the first time they have seen Her Royal Highness the queen only focus on eating at a state banquet.

At the same time, there are countless fans of Xiao Zhiyun, the new emperor, but the reason for the fans is because he only stared at Long Jiu beside him at the dinner party, focusing on picking vegetables for Long Jiu.

For a while, the new emperor Xiao Zhiyun and the future empress Long Jiu, the unmarried couple, instantly became a national couple, and in just one night, several fan support clubs of the two appeared on the interstellar network.
